Hi,
I’m going to be offline again, for 9 days.

Have a great time guys!
The rotting elf (Z39) lunged back, awkward and ungainly with its rusted sword at Long Bo, striking a strange, fell-handed blow upon the priest of nature (10 hp!)!
This is what I get for not paying attention and targeting the same enemy.

I'm actually just trying to show Bo's inexperience in combat and him not being used to having others around. :lol:

I hadn't thought of that. This is probably all for the best. I can upgrade my donkey. :)

Great stuff, gang.

Two things:

1) For clarity, I'll repeat that the player map of Briarsgate is only a partial one, showing just what the PCs have seen so far, fyi.

2) While player planning is strongly encouraged (through not necessarily in the middle of the town square ;) ), you each ultimately control your own actions, of course. Your orders for your own characters are the ones I will follow. So far, I have:
  • Long Bo: Enter the Constables' Quarters (2).

    Telkis: Investigate the mole hill in the center of the Sheep Pasture (west of 1).

    Ingrid: Enter the Inn (6) to establish the party's cover story.

    Hoom: Head to the Moneychanger (7).

    Pelais: Address the townsfolk at the Crossroads (between 2 and 6) asking about someone in authority.

    Grothnak: Wants to reconnoiter, but not split up the party. As the party seems to be splitting up anyway, does he reconnoiter alone, or join someone? If the latter, then who? Thanks.

    Vodarte: Mr. Kent's got internet troubles but said he'll post today.

    Mouser: Grog's on vacation, returning today.
Please let me know if you want to change your orders.
Thanks everyone.
