Unutterable Blasphemies (ooc and questions lV)

[ChubbyPixie]

Hows about this? (comments/ideas welcome):



Mouser (...checkin' for traps )

Grothnak, Telkis
Pelias, Ingrid,
Bo
Hoom, Urdur
Pip, Brevos




Mouser
Telkis
Grothnak,
Ingrid,
Pelias,
Urdur
Bo
Hoom,
Pip,
Brevos

[Zhym]

That works for me.

[ChubbyPixie]

I had to separate Bo and Mouser because of the incessant bickering. (“I will stop this adventure and turn this party around if I can’t get 20 minutes of peace and quiet!” )

[OGRE MAGE]

I think that was Bo and Hoom.

[AleBelly]

Yeah, it's Pelias and Mouser that like to bicker.

I'm fine with the 2 abreast formation, but Pelias would probably not be cool with being 5th. He at least needs to be ahead of Ingrid, and perhaps Grothnak?

[Zhym]

If we swap Pelias and Ingrid in the single-file order, that would let Pelias's PfE aura cover Grothnak and Telkis.

There's also a question of whether a thief should be in the front when single file. It's handy when looking for traps, but if we come up against monsters, Mouser's a pretty soft target.

Yeah, the point was to let full on fighters be in front, while allowing Pelias‘s bonuses affect as many party members as possible.

Fair point on the single file, though. Maybe Pelias in front of Ingrid? I was feeling pretty certain we’d encounter undead. And not sure who should be in front then, if not a thief. I guess Telkis?

Hi,
Thanks.
With Raven on a 168 hour flight , I don't want him volunteered for the front row without a reply.

So, for now, I'll revert to this:

Pelias, Telkis
Ingrid, Grothnak
Bo, Mouser
Hoom, Urdur
Pip, Brevos


Telkis
Grothnak
Pelias
Ingrid
Bo
Mouser
Hoom
Urdur
Pip
Brevos

Both let Grothnak swing his halberd over Telkis' head.
Both have Ingrid and Pelias near the front.

Once everyone has the chance to weigh in, we can update. Thanks.

[AleBelly]

This works for me. Pelias can always work his way back in a 2x2 formation if others need protection...

[OGRE MAGE]

Oh sure.....

Bo just loves being directly in front of the cults 2 newest converts!!!

His player is fine with the order, though. I am just waiting to finally unleash a 3rd level spell up in here!

[Inferno]

Hi Zhym, do you have a preference for a target?
Thanks.

[ravenn4544]

Thanks Mouser is squishy, i agree If he should be upfront to check for traps and stuff that's fine. Not sure if we expect any if the cultist's are so entrenched but ya never know.

[OGRE MAGE]

I am assuming that you will only allow attacks from the front rank since they are the only ones who can actually see what is going on in there?

If not, I would like to add to Bo's action.

[Inferno]

Correct.

[Scott308]

I think that order should work fine. I wouldn't think traps are much concern down here. At least, not in the tunnels. On a chest or something, possibly, but unlikely in the pathways traveled by cultists in an area they would never anticipate intruders.

[Scott308]

Also, I figured a metal album cover had to show up at some point. I hope I didnt miss one earlier.

[ChubbyPixie]

I think I’m late commenting, since it’s already taken effect, but the new order is okey-dokey with me.

[Inferno]

Thanks, Pixie.

Ha. Yeah, the Venn diagram of metal and the occult overlaps pretty generously.

[Inferno]

Pelias draws his spear. He will attack the goat-man if he tries to chant or cast. Otherwise he will retrieve his sword

Hi Ale,

Fyi, in the distribution of the Treasure of the Forsaken, Pelias ended up with the enchanted longsword from a lost human empire. He could use that instead of the spear if you wish. Up to you.
