OOC Discussion III: Bride of OOC

[Dram]

This Weekend I will be going on my annual Steelhead fishing trip. Leaving Friday night be back Sunday night.

[Zhym]

Have fun!

[Zhym]

Scarlett

Seeing Castran outside the cells she will greet him with a mock"what took you so long!", her head just visible above the water threshold. She will add her strength with a little crowbar help from her pack to bend the bar enough for her to wriggle through.

Bend bars % roll, [1d10O] = 3%...c'mon a bit of DM divine grace for the girl, her strength ability says 2%

Sorry I didn't notice this earlier, but I don't see that roll in the dice roller. Is it somewhere I should be able to see it? If not, I'm afraid it doesn't count.

[Stirling]

Yes I did roll it, checked after your postage though, not there so I guess I may have just 'test' rolled the macro in error. No worries, she had enough grace to fill again, now that she has fished about fof her stuff.

[Storm11]

Castran doesn't have the ring. Agax has it and has cast a detect charm spell in the prison room standing on the water using Castran's ring.

[Zhym]

Ah. We went from Castran trying to bend bars in the dungeon at 8:06 to "Castran stands on the stairs" the next round without a transition between the two (and no confirmation that Castran and Agax were trading the ring again). That confused me.

I'll update to reflect Castran returning to the stairs, but from now on it will take a full round for one person to leave the dungeon, return to the stairs, take off the ring, and hand it to someone; putting the ring on and walking to the dungeon from the stairs will use another full round. Either of these would be the only action the person can take in the round.

[Inferno]

The creatures in the room beyond follow...

The reaching creatures in the water?

[Zhym]

The very same.

[Inferno]

Thanks. Agax will maintain his action. Hopefully the water slows them, or Shinyah's owl distracts them, until he can complete his spell.

[Dram]

Did Scarlet free Bragar from his cell?

[Zhym]

She just made it out of her own cell. Her attempt to pick the lock in Bragar's cell will come with the next update.

[Inferno]

Hi,
I'm going away for a long weekend. I don't expect to be online. I'll be back on Monday night.

Please NPC my character if I'm holding things up. Agax can't wait to learn the result of his Detect Charm spell upon his suddenly free friends.

Thanks.

Have a good weekend, and Happy Mother's Day everyone.

[Zhym]

Apologies again for the slow updates, all. I've got way too many things on my plate at the moment. I should be able to work in an update this weekend, however.

[GreyWolfVT]

is any of this zombie action anywhere near where Gragog stands "keeping things dry?"

[Zhym]

That depends on what you mean by "near." Agax is near the middle of the hallway. Gragog is about 20' back on the stairs.

Here's a quick & rough diagram:

The "G" represents Gragog. Anyone on the stairs is also there or further back. Bragar and Scarlett are beyond the door to the north.

[Inferno]

Did Agax ever cast his Detect Charm spell?

Thanks.

[Zhym]

Not yet. You said that Agax would cast the spell when Bragar and Scarlett are within sight. They're still in the next room. Had the zombies not intercepted Agax, he'd have started casting the spell next round. As it is...well, he could start casting that spell while face-to-face with a bunch of zombies. Hey, who am I to tell you how to play your character?

[Inferno]

Sorry, I thought I had Knocked open the door to the north? I must have missed that the door closed.

[Zhym]

The door is ajar, but it's also down a short flight of stairs. And Agax only just reached a point where he would have any possibility of seeing into the cell block.

Keep in mind that Detect Charm takes a full round to cast, BTW, and has a range of 30'.

So the timeline so far is:

8:06: Castran takes the ring from Agax and goes into the dungeon to try to bend open the bars to Scarlett's cell
8:07: Castran returns to the stairs and gives Agax the ring
8:08 Agax puts the ring on and heads back to the dungeon only to be intercepted by the zombies that followed Shinyah out of the room to the west.

[Inferno]

Got it. Thanks.
