MadamePsychosis: Hello?

GM: Hello Lorie,

GM: and Hello Lisa

MadamePsychosis: Can we talk about map distances please?

GM: of course

MadamePsychosis: each square is 20 feet?

GM: yes

MadamePsychosis: this is like the problem with the bugbears

MadamePsychosis: does FG take into account how far away you are if you miss?

GM: yes

LorieD: Evening

MadamePsychosis: giants can hit something almost 40 feet away from them?

MadamePsychosis: Hi Lorie

MadamePsychosis: Sorry trying to get this out of my system

GM: That is almost correct

MadamePsychosis: and was that why Talwin missed?

GM: they are 18 foot tall, they have a reach of ten foot or more, plus the length of the weapon

GM: so yes all that concentration on the big sword is very warrented

MadamePsychosis: Carissa said she thought she was in range of a 10 yard range spell and I am not seeing that looking at the map

MadamePsychosis: to reach of 10 feet to hit say 36 feet away means their weapon is 26 feet long?

MadamePsychosis: Talwin's giant sword is 10-12 ft

GM: Yes to that too Lisa

MadamePsychosis: I was trying to move based on the 20 ft model and want to make sure that it is working for everyone or we're fudging it due to the grid map

'Shislif' connected

MadamePsychosis: I see Raelynn being over 60 feet or 20 yards away from the first giant. Am I wrong?

MadamePsychosis: I would be happy being wrong ...

MadamePsychosis: :)

GM: 75 feet

MadamePsychosis: so she is not in range

GM: You could lure them back to you

GM: and go after them

MadamePsychosis: that means giving them a turn

MadamePsychosis: and if you are saying that they have a weapon reach of 40 feet it's ridiculous

MadamePsychosis: how do you measure? Whenever I try nothing happens

GM: I right click and use a pointer

LorieD: BOB - How do I draw my AEO?

LorieD: err AOE

GM: same way Lorie

LorieD: Thanks

MadamePsychosis: I click on the pointer and then it disappears

GM: When you right click, pick something off the wheel, then click and drag on the map

Zayden: Hey everyone

MadamePsychosis: I do and nothing

LorieD: Okay... I drew a 40 sq. ft. box... hgot it

LorieD: Evening!!

MadamePsychosis: Hi Shislif

GM: Hey there Shislif

Zayden: I realize I may not be in a great position lol

MadamePsychosis: I pick pointer and then I get another menu of shapes and then I pick arrow and it goes blank

Zayden: Hey cool giant icons on the map!

GM: and then when you click and drag with your mouse after that Lisa?

MadamePsychosis: nothing

LorieD: There's a "stylis" -- choose that and then click on it to draw

GM: That is the drawing option yes Lorie, or just use a pointer like I just drew

MadamePsychosis: ok purple line was crap

MadamePsychosis: how do I get rid of it?

GM: drawing works to show people where you want things but the pointers measure things

MadamePsychosis: It doesn't measure

GM: you should be able to right click and erase

GM: or I can

LorieD: I can erase

LorieD: thanks :)

MadamePsychosis: it's gone but I still can't measure

GM: can you try Pointers Lisa?

MadamePsychosis: so confirm giant has 40 ft reach?

MadamePsychosis: I DID

MadamePsychosis: I need TMO

MadamePsychosis: forget it

MadamePsychosis: I'll ask you to measure until I get TMO

GM: I am sorry Lisa

MadamePsychosis: it's okay. He is just magic teacher man

MadamePsychosis: confirm 40 ft reach?

GM: they can have a 40 foot reach but unlikely

MadamePsychosis: they hit tmo with it - you can measure it :)

GM: they fill the 20 foot square, and the sword is 12 foot long

MadamePsychosis: and the giant fist that hit Craigh from 20 - 25 ft away

GM: so that is at least 30 foot for these giants

Shislif (Zayden): Have we started?

GM: 24 foot

MadamePsychosis: and if someone is charging the full 3x movment because they are charging they get both attacks correct?

LorieD: Nah...we're plotting and scheming

MadamePsychosis: No Shislif - we are waiting for 3 people

GM: Shislif did you see the Discord chat about ideas?

Shislif (Zayden): cool

Shislif (Zayden): I did!

Shislif (Zayden): gonna throw some potions at em?

GM: They get their normal attacks

MadamePsychosis: I am trying to make sure when we do go it won't be this kind of conversation in combat

GM: There is the one dwarf icon on the map to show where they are for Zayden

LorieD: Yup... this is all good for me

MadamePsychosis: so only one of the 3 ideas we can go this round is the potion toss if Raelynn is out of range?

GM: There is the option of delaying your moves to lure them forward and then hit them with your attacks

MadamePsychosis: what is giant movement per round? I don't see how that is a good idea

MadamePsychosis: we would have to give the giants a move to make them move and then hope they move more than half so they don't get to attack us woith their huge leg walking span

Shislif (Zayden): good point!

LorieD: Could we pin them in a smaller area?

MadamePsychosis: if their weapons are 30-40 ft without moving I would guess their movement is way longer than 120 ft

GM: Move of 12 for them as well

LorieD: That might be helpful... I might be two rounds away at this distance

MadamePsychosis: can't measure but I am guessing Branwyn is about 120 ft away and so everyone would have to move back 30-ft behind where she is?

MadamePsychosis: the farther back we go the narrower the hallway is

GM: 55 feet to where Tiberius and Rae are

Shislif (Zayden): Do we need to get past the giants? Is just running away an option?

MadamePsychosis: it's an open hallway hard to get a place to go other than the main room

Shislif (Zayden): ah ok

MadamePsychosis: but that is a huge room and range is an issue wherever we go

MadamePsychosis: looks like behind branwyn the hallway narrows to about 10 ft wide

GM: Yes to Lisa

Shislif (Zayden): when I highlight players on the map it tells me their health but not the names, is there a way to have it show names too?

MadamePsychosis: don't want a bottleneck again

MadamePsychosis: why do you want us jammed in the hallway again BOB?

GM: That is not my call

GM: you have the giants pinned in this room

GM: they cannot get out

MadamePsychosis: right where we want 'em! :D

GM: grins

MadamePsychosis: lol

Shislif (Zayden): Could somebody strong alley yoop me up top so I could grab a giant neck and stab from behind?

Shislif (Zayden): As I type it, it sounds farfetched lol

LorieD: Okay... so they are pinned

MadamePsychosis: Lorie you can sprint or charge to get closer than normal movement

GM: Shislif no one else is near you to do that

MadamePsychosis: as a thief he would have some natural climbing skills

LorieD: Yeah... trying to figure how to be in front of the gents but not close enough to the giants

Here are stacks of giant arms and armor, being repaired or fabricated. In the area first entered are 19 pike-sized spears, 41 6' spears, 16 battle axes, 9 two-handed swords, and other weapons and armor usable only by giants. A bit further on are some helmets balanced on shields and propped up by 6 each war hammers and maces. There are forges and bellows in the eastern section of the room.

Indigo: so if FG takes into account range should indigo do a dagger thrown to hit rather than just his short swords like we would do in klooge with a just get a hit mentality? or will it matter?

Shislif (Zayden): that's true I do have climbing skills i believe

GM: He can use his swords

GM: and yes to Shislif

Indigo: but are odds worse if he is not 5 ft away from giants? that is my question

GM: Just realized I did not do your advancement for hit points will do that now

GM: and no to Lisa, Indigo's melee hits will not be affected with using his swords

GM: but throwing a dagger the range should be accurate

MadamePsychosis: I don't think you see what I am asking

Shislif (Zayden): Nice!

GM: and for Lisa

Indigo: halflings get a +1 to attacks with a thrown weapon so I think he has to do that

Shislif (Zayden): Am I a halfling? Thought I was human?

GM: He can throw a dagger yes

MadamePsychosis: no Indigo is :)

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok mb

GM: Zayden is a human, grins

MadamePsychosis: he can use that for the roll when he throws the potions

GM: I think that Indigo is better using his swords, because he gets more attacks

GM: more chances

GM: (LINK)

Shislif (Zayden): I'm hoping the potion throw will distract the giant enough that he won't notice me climbing up to his should...

GM: also that link is for Parrying

Shislif (Zayden): Do we think that's a good idea?

MadamePsychosis: it's a potion unless he can throw it and run and catch his miss and throw it again - not seeing swords being a better bet

MadamePsychosis: :)

GM: chuckles sorry Lisa, forgot the potion, was thinking dagger

Shislif (Zayden): thx for the parry primer!

MadamePsychosis: he is ambidextrous and an 8th level fighter so should be able to throw one thing per hand

MadamePsychosis: (LINK)

MadamePsychosis: parry lesson from Daffy Duck

Shislif (Zayden): Lol i Like this!

LorieD: but it's rabbit season?

GM: being very quiet

'LemonyLemon' connected

MadamePsychosis: lol

GM: Hey Lemon

MadamePsychosis: Hi Lemon! :)

Shislif (Zayden): Hi Lemon!

LorieD: Evening Lemon

LemonyLemon: Hello all!

LemonyLemon: On the phone with my sister, so multitasking for a few

GM: I do think you have lots of options here, but as Lisa and Lorie were pointing out distance is a problem and if you are moving away where would you move away to?

GM: and I heard from Carissa and Shislif on the icons for the giants, Lorie? Lisa? Lemon? do you like these? better for combats?

MadamePsychosis: you are the only one telling us to move away ...

GM: you can move forward or back

LorieD: Aerial view of giants is fine

MadamePsychosis: the only ones I think should move away are Talwin and Craigh

LorieD: I agree... I would like to do a "tango" with them to get in position once we decide what we're doing

MadamePsychosis: can I ask why Craigh's light does not light up giant 2?

GM: like that?

GM: found it

GM: better?

MadamePsychosis: I click on Craigh to see what he sees, right? and giant is in the dark gray area - is there a wall?

LorieD: Ooh spotlight giants

LorieD: better than fire giants

GM: chuckiles

GM: do you see them both equally now?

'Master TMO' connected

GM: Hello TMO

LorieD: top one is spotlighted

LorieD: Evening TMO

MadamePsychosis: I guess. Still getting used to gray being the color of a lit area

MadamePsychosis: Hi TMO :)

GM: no word from Michael

GM: so really waiting on Carissa to make final plans

MadamePsychosis: ok - one morer issue so you can be pissed off at me even more :)

MadamePsychosis: when I was formatting chat - soulless was the one that bopped Craigh and plain Fire giant had the sword

MadamePsychosis: but soulless is closest to talwin and fire giant is even farther away - is that correct?

GM: Yes, to both, but that is becuase of me changing icons, I can swap the two of them back

Master TMO: test

GM: Yes for TMO

MadamePsychosis: It doen't matter I guess we just need to know which one has the sword

Master TMO: it's still loading dcs for me

MadamePsychosis: I know! the loading stuff in the log is much longer now

GM: The one with the sword in the icon is the sword, the one with the mace is the fist

GM: but I will go look for one with only fists, purchased new icons last night

Master TMO: especially because I told it to load all the books when I was on with Carissa earlier this week

MadamePsychosis: it's fine - just wanted to make sure

Master TMO: sorry for delay. asked wife to make deliveries as quickly as possible, but mother-in-law refused to stop talking so she couldn't just leave.

LorieD: Family comes first

Master TMO: sure, we'll go with that. ;)

GM: and sorry no just fist punching giants

MadamePsychosis: lol

GM: so Lemon any ideas on spells to use? Bixi is pretty far in the back

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): sorry still on phone

MadamePsychosis: can she bless or chant us? which one is better anyway Lorie?

GM: Bless is a touch spell

MadamePsychosis: okay forget that one :)

LorieD: I like Chant over bless myself

Zayden: Does the climb walls skill apply to all climbing (including climbing giants) or just climbing walls exclusively?

MadamePsychosis: giants are a living wall

Shislif (Zayden): Nice lol

GM: all sorts of climbing,, and yes see Lisa

Bixi Fizzlebang: I do not have chant on my list?

Craigh: Craigh should not be even carrying the Invulnerability Potion. Only warriors can use it.

GM: and Shislif, what skills do you think Zayden concentrated more on?

Master TMO (Craigh): but he can hand it off to Talwin on his turn - he moves before Tal does.

GM: Ifyou look at his sheet you can see the different types and your base chance percentage wise in each

Zayden: Hmmm, find/remove traps, climb walls, move silently

Shislif (Zayden): and musical instrument/singing

GM: Ok so I will put his max allowed for his first three levels into those three skills the singing is something else

Shislif (Zayden): cool, singing probably not so helpful anyway :)

Shislif (Zayden): I may dive into the whole Thief theme and save the barding for another character later

Master TMO (Craigh): I don't see the Branwyn spell module as an option? Did it make it into the system?

Shislif (Zayden): whoa 654 to remove traps! I'm a trapmaster :)

Shislif (Zayden): dang :)

GM: and now updated to halfway to his current point in life

Shislif (Zayden): we at level 14?

GM: seeing those skills what do you think that Zayden would put more into?

GM: and you are still the bard idea, you can do both

GM: and checking for you now TMO

Master TMO (Craigh): not that important for me so long as Bran and Rae get their spells.

GM: Updated that TMO, now Players can load it

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok, what are the advantages of singing vs musical instrument? I know a bard should be able to inspire their group so that sounds cool

GM: that is a different thing

GM: first you have 90 more points to put towards your thief skills

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

MadamePsychosis: yes climb the giant and start singing Baby Shark in his ear to distract him!

GM: LOL Lisa

Shislif (Zayden): is fast talking a thing?

Craigh: Do do DO-doodoo

Shislif (Zayden): lol Madame that may work!

GM: you can try it

GM: looking at the skills you have fast talkign is currently a zero percent chance of working

Shislif (Zayden): pick pocket

Shislif (Zayden): Hide in shadows

Shislif (Zayden): All seem useful

GM: you always fail on a 96 or more on the dice

GM: BUT you might have modifiers to your roll

GM: so your current climb walls is 95

Shislif (Zayden): Well I'm not really sure when fast talking will come in handy tbh

Master TMO (Craigh): confirmed cleric spell available. Lisa - can you load the module to get access to your spells?

GM: but if you are trying to climb a slick wall in the rain I might say it is at a negative 20%

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

MadamePsychosis: I'm scared to do anything to my spells right now ...

GM: so your chance is only 75% currently... but if you over spend on that skill to make up for future penalties you could deal with those

MadamePsychosis: what do I have to do?

GM: Your spells should be right on your sheet Lisa, and they feed off of that book

Master TMO (Craigh): Menus / Modules / load Branwyn's Oddball Spells

GM: and so for Zayden, 30 points to pick pockets

GM: 10 points to Find remove traps

Master TMO (Craigh): oh, you already attached them Bob? thanks

GM: and 30 points to pick pockets?

GM: Yes to TMO for Branwyn but not Rae

Master TMO (Craigh): np

MadamePsychosis: Lemon did you find chant? 2nd lvl spell?

Shislif (Zayden): sure

MadamePsychosis: so I need to load them and nothing will explode?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I do not have it

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): But sorry, sister had a biopsy, so we're still talking

MadamePsychosis: it's on your klooge spell list :(

MadamePsychosis: I'm sorry Lemon!

GM: no need to load them Lisa, by loading the book you can read the spells there and not have to use your sheet

GM: and I can fix that for Bixi

GM: just a moment

GM: for Zayden those are your stats currently

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I did have the list of what I was missing but it's waaaay back in discord

Shislif (Zayden): so those values are out of 100?

GM: you have 50 more points to distribute no more than 15 into one skill

Shislif (Zayden): cool

GM: and yes out of 100

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

Zayden: I'll put 15 in musical instrument, 15 in hide in shadows

GM: chant up dated for Bixi

Zayden: 15 in open locks

Zayden: 5 in singing

GM: Singing and muscial instrument do not count

GM: those are different

GM: 20 more points to go

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

GM: not in open locks or hide

Zayden: Put 20 in hide in shadows

GM: cannot you already maxed that out

GM: OH wait you do have 10 you could put there, sorry

GM: so 10 more

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

GM: I know this is a bit confusing but because we are doing all the level bonuses in one fell swoop instead of 30 points at a time each time you level

Shislif (Zayden): 10 more in open locks then

Shislif (Zayden): No worries I getchya

GM: and there you go

Shislif (Zayden): Thanks!

GM: NOW you get more Non-weapon skills, like muscial instrument, etc. but you likely want to pick things like observation, or alterness or many other types of things

Zayden: Time for some parkour team!

GM: you have 4 slots to use on those

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

GM: Michael is on the way if anyone did not see in the discord

Shislif (Zayden): where do I see those?

GM: Records, Skills for the list of them

GM: and you can take any General, or Rogue skill

Shislif (Zayden): thx

MadamePsychosis: swimming!

MadamePsychosis: or not ...

Zayden: Wait weren't the ones we did already nonweapon skills?

GM: those were your Thief skills

GM: now you get your other non-weapon skills

GM: then we deal with your weapon skills

Zayden: oh ok

GM: you do not need to pick everything now you can leave slots open and we will fill them in by roleplay as you discover what you are good at, etc.

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok that helps thx

GM: and Lisa makes a good point, if you do not know how to swim, you can only dog paddle

GM: and stay in place and hope to not drown

GM: you do not make progress

Shislif (Zayden): Ok I'll put some in swimming then lol

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ok back now, catching up

GM: also you can take a skill more than once, so in your example of singing you can get a plus 1 if you spend an extra slot

GM: and Lemon, is your sister ok?

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok, how many slots do we get?

GM: Zayden has 3 open slots for non-weapon proficencies (NWP)

'mharmon1' connected

GM: He also has 5 slots for Weapon Proficiencies (WP) and can use those for NWP if he wants to know fewer weapons

GM: and hello Michael

'mharmon1' disconnected

LorieD: Evening Michael

GM: again for Shislif we/you are learning yoru character as you go, so you might roleplay doing something and then we apply a skill for that

Shislif (Zayden): ah ok, yes gonna have to think that over a bit!

Master TMO (Craigh): hi

GM: or we say you cannot do it becasue you do not know how to swim, etc

MadamePsychosis: Hi Michael :)

GM: and Michael dropped

Shislif (Zayden): sounds good to me GM!

GM: I am certain he will be back

GM: Also for Shislif and Lemon who have never seen this. Our game is realistic, meaning the characters can die. I do not go easy just to keep a favorite character alive, etc. I do not TRY to kill everyone, even with the teasing, but making mistakes, or a bad roll can end a character's life.

GM: That is ok, it means you roll up a new one and move forward

GM: everyone else has seen that happen here except the two of you

LorieD: (He tries... )

GM: chuckles

Shislif (Zayden): sounds good!

GM: I play the NPCs appropriately smart

GM: and use their skills as they should

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi is just getting started in her new ghost hunter life, it would be a shame to see it ended so suddenly

Shislif (Zayden): Are you trying to say I should climb the fire giants? :)

GM: This just happens to be the encounter with the toughest NPCs to face

GM: and I fully embrace Bixi's new ghost hunter life, even if she does it from the other side of the grave

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): But yes, sister is ok, thanks for asking. Bone biopsy came back negative, so it's not what they were checking for, but also that means they still don't know what is wrong. Bone biopsies sound terrible, fyi. Do not recommend.

GM: HUGS

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oooooh, can I come back and haunt Tiberius if I die?

GM: LOL

LorieD: Sending her well wishes!

Zayden: Also sending hugs!

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Thanks :)

GM: There is reincarnation too, which means she could come back as a parrot

GM: Or a goblin, or a human, or a ......

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ooooh, that sounds just as good. Anything that can talk and annoy the other characters.

MadamePsychosis: Yes very much. Hope they find out what's wrong soon

GM: to focus, I think that Lisa knows what she wants to do

GM: TMO knows what he hopes to do

MadamePsychosis: what is tmo doing?

GM: Shislif knows what stunt he wants to try

GM: I do not know, I said TMO knows :)

Shislif (Zayden): Now I'm worried I may die!

'mharmon1' connected

Shislif (Zayden): lol I'm good, super free climber over here :)

MadamePsychosis: I need to push Indigo's action until Bixi chants

MadamePsychosis: will potion of explosion explode more than what it hits?

Shislif (Zayden): I have the backstab or something skill right? As a thief?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm happy to try chant... I have two 2nd level left, so shouldn't be a problem

GM: yes to Shislif

Shislif (Zayden): coolio

GM: what that means if you STAB someone in the back and If you hit you get double or triple damage, etc based on your level

MadamePsychosis: it's just from watching Talwin try to hit it and missing all his I am worried to have to use a call shot without some help from a higher power

User has gone AFK. (Shislif)

MadamePsychosis: and it would help all of us and hurt their saves

mharmon1: OK. I should be in here. Hello all!

GM: Hello Michael

MadamePsychosis: Hi Michael!

Master TMO (Craigh): hi

LorieD: Evening Michael

mharmon1: Let me backstab with the massive sword that's a Spear. I mean, I'll never hit them desipite it's god awful size, but you know.

mharmon1: :)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I also have 10' radius invisibility, so if the hurt people got close to me, I could potentially hide them with that? If it got that desperate?

mharmon1: Hey Lorie!

GM: and for Zayden, he would have to climb walls to get up high enough to stab the giant in the back, then sucessfully hit him, and if he does he gets to do triple damage

GM: nice Lemon

Master TMO (Craigh): also I believe Bob's general attitude has been backstabbing doesn't work once combat has started. ;)

MadamePsychosis: back of the thigh doesn't count as a backstab?

mharmon1: Arrow to the kneee?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I mean, he would have to put points in thighstab, probably

GM: for Zayden it is a nice idea BUT remember the dagger does 1d4 so even tripled it will be 3 to 12 points of damage to the giant

MadamePsychosis: can you reach the giant butt? butt stab bonus

GM: and LOL to Lemon

GM: and LOL to Lisa

mharmon1: Or same location, but the front of the giant would probably be better Lisa

mharmon1: Just saying

Master TMO (Craigh): perform combat proctology using a spear

mharmon1: LOL

Master TMO (Craigh): conveniently Craigh has one you can use

Zayden: Trumpets play!

MadamePsychosis: don't think we are seeing carissa unless we ping her for her turn or she is done with her paperwork

mharmon1: Pff, I can't hit anything with the sword I'm using and frankly while I think it's cook as hell, I need to transfer him to like, my current two-handed sword

GM: and posted the Museum Bums twitter feed to the Discord for you Lisa

mharmon1: I won't pester anyone due to work. I'm fully understanding of Carissa's situation LOL

MadamePsychosis: thanks Bob! :D

Master TMO (Craigh): here she comes, speak of the debil

mharmon1: Hi Carissa! :)

mharmon1: Hope you are well and one with the paperwork. Just digitize it and you can burn the rest :)

GM: I am not trying to hurry anyone too much, do not want you to delay just to delay but want you to DO without overly planning

mharmon1: Wut

GM: chuckles,

MadamePsychosis: we've been planning all day

GM: she has not arrived here yet Michael

mharmon1: Ah ok

GM: This is also true Lisa

Master TMO (Craigh): haste without hurry

Shislif (Zayden): sounds good!

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): TL;DR: BOB is ready for new characters.

GM: so that means you can go NOW

GM: HAH to Lemon

Zayden: You guys gotta distract those giants so he won't notice me sneaking and climbing up his back though

'seyfert' connected

GM: I have the next three story arcs planned for Talwin, Branwyn and the group

mharmon1: (Getting into Character, Talwin is probably going to backoff seeing as how, he's critical hurt)

MadamePsychosis: Michael - you know you have 14 hps left and it might be a good idea to back up - especially if Indigo lobs the explosion potion

mharmon1: (Yep)

MadamePsychosis: good plan

mharmon1: :)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Or reincarnated Talwin, Branwyn, and the group

GM: If everyone dies I have alternative plans, :)

mharmon1: (I want a simple pirate life. let's just kill stuff and make cool pirate businesses)

MadamePsychosis: you always have alternative plans

mharmon1: LOL

GM: This is true

Zayden: I'm all for cool business

Zayden: pirate life sounds like a lot of work however

MadamePsychosis: we're here to just kill stuff so here you go

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, let's sit back and let adventurers come to US for a change

Shislif (Zayden): hey I'm here already :)

GM: so Lemon wants to be the Bugbears, and have adventures come to try and steal her things

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ok, so I'm sorry, to recap... the gray stuff is stuff we can see????

seyfert: Taking longer to load, hi all!

LorieD: Evening :)

MadamePsychosis: Hi carissa! :)

Zayden: Hey ya :)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): And if so, what is the brown area?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): And yes, I do like these icons

mharmon1 (Talwin): I wondered why I couldn't make out the text. I'm not wearing my glasses. Sigh. One sec

MadamePsychosis: we even have big fonts now!

mharmon1 (Talwin): Ah, that's better. And yes you do. It's much better! :)

GM: Michael is getting old

Talwin: Shut up bob

GM: grins

MadamePsychosis: oh yes I wish I was Michael old!

Shislif (Zayden): Lol

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Who among us isn't.

mharmon1 (Talwin): That's a scary thing, when people wish they were my age. No, I think just years of hard labor and dust in my face is wearing me faster :)

mharmon1 (Talwin): I'm glad I'm a fancy office type now :)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Nah, you're old.

MadamePsychosis: hugs

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): :P

mharmon1 (Talwin): LOL

GM: grins

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I actually have no idea, I'm just teasing

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): So where do I need to aim this chant? At a person?

GM: Ok so walking through this round as a practice

Talwin: I'm thirty lol. Not too bad

GM: we are not actually doing anything moving or rolling

mharmon1 (Talwin): OK

GM: Indigo is up and does?

MadamePsychosis: huh?

seyfert: I dunno, man. 30 was when everything went wrong...

mharmon1 (Talwin): (Killing me smalls)

Master TMO (Craigh): don't scare the man

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, it doesn't get better.

MadamePsychosis: waits a turn for Bixi to start chanting

GM: ok so now it is Bixi up

GM: and she does?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ok, so I'm going to chant. Where do I cast it at?

GM: not yet just walking through things

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, I'm just asking

GM: and it is an area affect centered on her

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ohhhhh. Well that sucks.

Master TMO (Craigh): it should be in your Actions/Powers tab

GM: but Bixi chanting

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Can I cast it and then move up a little the next turn, or will it break it?

GM: next is dwarf, then dwarf, then Cat

seyfert (Raelynn): 2 dwarfs?

GM: at this point no one has told the cat to do anything so it reacts and does... ??

GM: then Branwyn is up

Master TMO (Craigh): who is today's Cat Commander?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, and I read the description, but it just said area of effect, it didn't specifically say it was on me, so I guess that's implied, but I didn't realize that.

MadamePsychosis: Bran moves down to get in spell range

GM: no worries Lemon that is why we are in dress rehearsal

GM: so Bran moves closer to the giant end of the hallway

GM: so she can see into the room

GM: right?

GM: Next up is Zayden

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): So it also says that it can be interrupted, but does it get interrupted if I move closer the next round so that the giants get the negative effect? Or is it better for me to just stay where I am?

MadamePsychosis: yes she needs line of sight on both of them

Shislif (Zayden): ok

Shislif (Zayden): ok I sneak?

Zayden: walk silently up to the giant right ankle

GM: You can move half your movement so 60 feet and still attack

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

GM: not yet

Shislif (Zayden): ok

GM: when we are Live

seyfert (Raelynn): Chant is 30 ft radius, interruptions are only attacks on you or by you

GM: but you know what you want to do and everyone else does

Shislif (Zayden): oh mb thought we were playin

GM: then Youtargim is up

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Don't worry Shislif, we've literally never done this before while I've been playing. Dress rehearsal is new to me too.

GM: he is was in the back so will shout out in Giant at them,

MadamePsychosis: 30 ft? then it won't help most of us :(

GM: next is N'laea

Shislif (Zayden): why do I have red arrows on my character in the combat tracker?

seyfert (Raelynn): N'laea will wait to see what others are doing first

GM: Yes to Lemon and Shislif, we rarely do this, but it is important as Talwin and Craigh could both die with one hit before the end of the first round

GM: and as long as Carissa has a plan that is good

GM: then after N'laea Craigh is up

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Not complaining, just letting him know this isn't the norm and it makes sense to be a little confused right now

GM: understand Lemon

GM: Zero complaints on my end

GM: you would know, grins

MadamePsychosis: Shislif - Indigo has an explosion potion so you might be good not climbing a giant this round and wait to see what happens

Shislif (Zayden): cool

Master TMO (Craigh): drop lasso (it's attached to his belt so can be pulled in if necessary), hand Talwin Invulnerability Potion, hightail it to the next county

Shislif (Zayden): sounds good thanks Madame :)

Shislif (Zayden): I'll hide in the shadows

seyfert (Raelynn): Yes, a hold action means you can wait until the others go then you go for this round.

seyfert (Raelynn): So you don't have to do anything yet, hide or anything, you can just hold THEN decide what you want to do towards the end after others

GM: after Craigh goes then there are more Dwarves that are up

GM: then Licornah

GM: and thank you Carissa for that explination it does help

GM: Lorie you have your plan?

Licornah: I declare movement and ready to cast upon arrival

GM: then Tiberius who will guard the hallway waiting until the last minute to see what happens

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): But after everyone else goes, then you still have to decide... that's what tripped me up the first time lol... I didn't want to make a decision but eventually you have to :P

GM: then Talwin is up

mharmon1 (Talwin): Talwin is GTFO

GM: ok

mharmon1 (Talwin): As in , try and leave and not die in the process

GM: then Rae

seyfert (Raelynn): Will giant have parting shot?

mharmon1 (Talwin): If he does, not much I can do about it

Indigo: not if you back up facing it

Indigo: retreat rather than run

mharmon1 (Talwin): Then Yes, I'll do that

GM: and yes if Talwin or Craigh just FLEES they get a parting shot, if they RETREAT then they do not

GM: but they can follow along if you retreat

seyfert (Raelynn): Rae will cast. Talwin can wait until after she casts to back up.

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Chant says casting time 2 rounds... is that how long it lasts, or how long it takes to cast it, or?

mharmon1 (Talwin): Huh. I never thought about that rule. Thanks Bob

seyfert (Raelynn): If spell works, Talwin should be safe.

Talwin: So

mharmon1 (Talwin): Am I retreating? or Waiting?

mharmon1 (Talwin): In this dress rehersal of course

GM: to be clear.... you are standing toe to toe in melee with someone, if you turn around and FLEE they get to attack you once as you run away. if you RETREAT then you get yoru full armor protection, moving backward at half your movement rate, still getting your attacks as you wish and your enemy gets to move forward with you pursuing you but does not get any extra attacks

mharmon1 (Talwin): Sigh.

mharmon1 (Talwin): I mean, that's probably my best option

seyfert (Raelynn): My suggestion is wait to see if Rae successfully casts. If she does THEN flee. So just hold for one turn. That make sense?

mharmon1 (Talwin): OK. I can do that

seyfert (Raelynn): If her spell is successfull, parting shot won't be an issue.

GM: what is Rae planning on casting? range?

Master TMO (Craigh): does Talwin have a full defense option?

Shislif (Zayden): I will hide in shadows, darn I wish put more points in those lol

GM: 60 feet currently from the closest giant for Rae

seyfert (Raelynn): She was suppose to be in range at the end of last week.

Indigo: ehhh giants are stupid. they won't turn aroun :)

mharmon1 (Talwin): (His defense option is really try not to get hit. No shield or anything)

seyfert (Raelynn): I swear I moved her in range and measured it properly

GM: That is the Parry

Zayden: how many feet per square in the map again?

GM: 20 feet per square

seyfert (Raelynn): I hate the measurements in FG.

Parrying

mharmon1: Parrying

Talwin: Link issue

mharmon1 (Talwin): But will look up

seyfert (Raelynn): Well fuck then if we're going to care about 20 ft difference. Can N'laea literally drag Rae closer so she can cast?

Craigh: (LINK)

Master TMO (Craigh): This is an attempt by the character to create a better defense for themselves by giving up all attacks for the round. They can't attack, move, or cast spells. This frees the character to concentrate solely on defense. At this point, all characters but warriors gain an AC bonus equal to half their level. A 6th level wizard would have a +3 bonus to his AC (lowering his AC by 3). A warrior gets a bonus equal to half his level plus one. A 6th level fighter would gain a +4 AC bonus.

seyfert (Raelynn): I'm not letting this round go by without some action because the measurements were off.

Master TMO (Craigh): there are 2 other types of Parrying too

GM: No to Rae moving and casting in the same round

mharmon1 (Talwin): Yeah, btter to go with that I think. I'll go for that

seyfert (Raelynn): Even if someone else moves her?

GM: Yes to being moved

seyfert (Raelynn): Clarify

Master TMO (Craigh): the Blocking Parry you attack AC4. Attacking Parry you attack the opponent.

GM: and Rae did move as far as she could last round

seyfert (Raelynn): No she didn't if she walk

GM: Rae can cast OR move and attack

seyfert (Raelynn): No. I mean was that a yes, if someone moves her, she can cast?

GM: no one can move/ be moved, be attacked, etc. and still cast

GM: if you are casting later in the round and get hit you lose your casting

Zayden: can you guys also distract the giant on top? I'm worried it may see me

Master TMO (Craigh): he's as distracted as he's gonna get. ;)

GM: Link for Parrying is now on the Links menu as well

Zayden: Sounds good!

Shislif (Zayden): Any theme music for our upcoming giant battle GM?

Master TMO (Craigh): testing

Zayden: Zayden gestures

GM: wry grin, sounds are on my list of things to improve

Craigh: [ATTACK (R)] Dagger [THACO(17)] [-4] [AC: 10 ] [d20-4 = 7]

GM: so I think everyone is ready to start off on round 2?

Shislif (Zayden): That would be awesome! But if you just gimme a song name I can play it on youtube in the background as we fight :)

GM: Flight of the Valkies seems appropriate for Fire Giants

Master TMO (Craigh): just to confirm selecting the -4 at the bottom left applies to an attack roll from my character sheet. Works for other things besides just the dice down there

Talwin: (LINK)

Indigo: think Indigo might need to wait until Talwin moves away but only change on that

Shislif (Zayden): Thanks!

Zayden: Zayden bows

GM: ok so Ready

GM: St

GM: GO

Bixi Fizzlebang: (LINK)

GM: Indigo is up

Shislif (Zayden): Lol elden ring? haven't played that one yet

Shislif (Zayden): Thanks Bixi!

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): hitting act button and nothing happens

GM: Ok

GM: so that is a bug we need to report/ check

Licornah: Elden Ring is a good time...but it's really challenging

GM: so just remind me when he wants to go

Bixi Fizzlebang: (LINK)

[TURN] Bixi Fizzlebang

GM: Bixi is up

mharmon1 (Talwin): I'm on the newgame plus :) I love it so much

Bixi Fizzlebang: Bixi Fizzlebang cast a spell NOT memorized.

Bixi Fizzlebang: [CAST] Chant [at Bixi Fizzlebang]

[TURN] Dwarf, Hill (Missing left knee) - [(IFT:TYPE(giant); AC:4) | (IFT:TYPE(goblin,orc); ATK:1) | (ROD: 3; STAFF:3; WAND:3; POISON:3; SPELL:3)]

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): 30ft

GM: Does everyone see that circle around Bixi?

Master TMO (Craigh): yes

Licornah: Yes

Shislif (Zayden): yup

GM: OK then dwarves go who are in chains, then the cat who is way in the back lurking

[TURN] Branwyn - [LIGHT: 60/0 continual light]

Branwyn: moves forward to get line of sight on the two giants

[TURN] Zayden

Shislif (Zayden): how do I hide in shadows?

GM: You drag the dice from your character sheet to the Tower in the lower right cover of the screen that rolls the dice so that I see them but you do not

Zayden: which dice?

GM: the die next to the Hide in Shadows skill on your sheet

Master TMO (Craigh): if it will help, I'm sharing my screen in Discord - I can show you whatever you need

Shislif (Zayden): I see the skill but there's no dice

GM: there is a small die in the lower left corner of the number

Craigh: [SKILL] Hide In Shadows [PERCENT:Hide In Shadows] (vs. Target 55) [SUCCESS by 18] [d100 = 37]

GM: there you go

Craigh: [TOWER] [SKILL] Hide In Shadows [PERCENT:Hide In Shadows] (vs. Target 55) [SUCCESS by 13] [d100 = 42]

GM: so in this case it is a sucess, you hide in shadows sucessfully

Zayden: [SKILL] Hide In ShadTows [PERCENT:Hide In ShadTows] (vs. Target 30) [SUCCESS by 26] [d100 = 4]

Zayden: Nice!

GM: the second time you did it better by rolling in the tower and hiding it

GM: I will give you the result from the first roll

GM: and Zayden hides in the mess of this room with all the gear as previously described

Zayden: Oh the first time I don't think was me

GM: OH you are right, it was TMO rolling the first two times, and then you rolled and actually got a better result

GM: HAH

Master TMO (Craigh): I did roll for Craigh twice to show him how

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

GM: still in the shadows

GM: and thank you TMO

Shislif (Zayden): Thanks TMO!

Zayden: Zayden bows

GM: click next now Shislif

Master TMO (Craigh): any time

GM: lower left of the Combat Tracker

[TURN] Youtargim - [LIGHT: 5 FF6F90FF]

Shislif (Zayden): Got it!

GM: Also by the way I love my new extension that automatically brings up the character sheet for the person who is up on the CT

GM: makes it faster and easier

Youtargim [Giant]: [Translation] RUN AWAY!!!! WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED!!!! SURRENDER OR DIE!!!!!!

RUN AWAY!!!! WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED!!!! SURRENDER OR DIE!!!!!!

[understood by: ]

Moves forward to stand in front of Branwyn to guard her

[TURN] N'laea

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): good thing he is only 5 ft tall

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): :)

seyfert (N'laea): called shot to attempt blinding again

N'laea: [ATTACK (R)] Shortbow [THACO(13)] [-2] [d20+3 = 17]

Attack [17] ->[ATTACK (R)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: -4 vs. -1 ] [AC: -4 ] [Location: Shoulder, top] [HIT]

GM: That is a hit

seyfert (N'laea): (having problems with second roll)

N'laea: [ATTACK (R)] Shortbow [THACO(13)] [-2] [d20+3 = 23]

Attack [23] ->[ATTACK (R)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: -10 vs. -1 ] [AC: -10 ] [Location: Hip] [CRITICAL HIT]

GM: WOW roll again

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): OMG

N'laea: [ATTACK (R)] Shortbow [THACO(13)] [-2] [d20+3 = 10]

Attack [10] ->[ATTACK (R)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: 3 vs. -1 ] [AC: 3 ] [MISS]

Master TMO (Craigh): BOOM - Head shot!

seyfert (N'laea): (so if he's now blind so I still roll damage?)

GM: Ok so two called shots to his eye

seyfert (N'laea): (it's one to each eye - we want complete blindness)

GM: ONLY because she is an elf

seyfert (N'laea): :)

Master TMO (Craigh): custom fitted shades

LorieD (Licornah): (very nice)

Talwin: (Um, if an arrow hit the same eye twice, it's in his brain)

GM: and with the critical hit

seyfert (N'laea): (damage roll needed?)

mharmon1 (Talwin): (She lobotomized him the hard way)

seyfert (N'laea): (pithing with arrows)

seyfert (N'laea): (not the recommended way, but if it works..._)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, if we're going for this so-called "realism," that giant is useless now.

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): she has chant bonus too if that makes a difference

GM: I will say that no damage roll is needed, that N'laea with her elven wizardry with her bow goes THUNK THUNK one arrow into each eye and totally blinds the giant with the sword

Master TMO (Craigh): he has very sturdy eyelids

[TURN] Craigh

GM: she is outside of the chant radius

mharmon1 (Talwin): (LOL)

GM: Morale Check Results: -------------------- did not require check: "'Giant, Fire '","'Giant, Fire (Souless)'","'Dwarf, Hill (Vintage leggings)'","'Dwarf, Hill (Missing left knee)'","'Dwarf, Hill 5'","'Dwarf, Hill 1'","'Dwarf, Hill (Puckering eye patch)'","'Dwarf, Hill 3'" --------------------

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): N'laea is too in the magic circle

seyfert (N'laea): (she is in the circle that was drawn, right above Tiberius)

Zayden: Nice job N'laea!

GM: OH I am sorry was lookign at Branwyn

seyfert (N'laea): (good because I did add the chant bonus, lol)

mharmon1 (Talwin): (So, with chant, his head just explodes)

GM: so yes to the Chant

Craigh: drops the lasso from his hand, grabs the Invulnerability potion, hands it to Talwin, and retreats quickly along the wall so hopefully mace-giant can't swing at him

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): LOL

GM: no to his head exploding

seyfert (N'laea): (boo)

GM: and I will grant Zayden that voice in side his head while he is hiding instead of saying that outloud and maybe giving his location away

Shislif (Zayden): Thanks! Sorry about that

GM: you can always type those out and do them as emoting

GM: Craigh can move as you wish

GM: and Talwin will have the potion there with him

seyfert (N'laea): (hold ctrl to make it an emote, ctrl and shift for an action aka just takes away the : after your name)

Master TMO (Craigh): all good?

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok thanks

GM: when you are ready hit next TMO

[TURN] Dwarf, Hill 5 - [(IFT:TYPE(giant); AC:4) | (IFT:TYPE(goblin,orc); ATK:1) | (ROD: 3; STAFF:3; WAND:3; POISON:3; SPELL:3)]

seyfert (N'laea): (and actions and emotes are what show up in red)

[TURN] Licornah

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): you can also type /action thing-i'm-going-to-do. I do it that way because I can never remember the key combo

GM: I did not know that thank you Lemon

BOB learns

[TURN] Tiberius

Bixi Fizzlebang: shrugs

LorieD (Licornah): (my movement isnt't showing_)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I got it out of the help menu when I typed something wrong

seyfert (N'laea): Licornah turned sideways...

GM: You moved up to the wall LIcornah

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): it doesn't you have to type it

GM: you can finish your move

Licornah: I was trying to move 30 out

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): It looks like your icon is almost on top of Bixi

GM: That is 30 feet closer to the giants than you were now

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): there we go

Licornah: I moved closer

GM: I saw you try to Lorie, you moved into the wall and it stopped you

Licornah: ok

seyfert (N'laea): (those damn walls)

GM: next maps for the next story arc will be simplier with scale

GM: Tiberius is ...... Tiberius

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): hell hath no walls

GM: HAH

seyfert (N'laea): (maybe walls of fire, but you could technically walk through them...)

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): no explosion potion then - stupid Branadarus

Tiberius: [ATTACK (M)] Rapier [THACO(10)] [d20 = 20]

Attack [20] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: -10 vs. -1 ] [AC: -10 ] [Location: Armpit] [CRITICAL HIT]

Tiberius: [ATTACK (M)] Rapier [THACO(10)] [d20 = 12]

Attack [12] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: -2 vs. -1 ] [AC: -2 ] [Location: Chest] [HIT]

seyfert (N'laea): critical armpit hit, love it

Tiberius: [ATTACK (M)] Rapier [THACO(10)] [d20 = 6]

Attack [6] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: 4 vs. -1 ] [AC: 4 ] [MISS]

Tiberius: [ATTACK (M)] Rapier [THACO(10)] [d20 = 18]

Attack [18] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: -8 vs. -1 ] [AC: -8 ] [Location: Finger(s)] [HIT]

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): I tried to add those details in the story chat

Master TMO (Craigh): do you plan on using the locations, or are they just flavor?

Tiberius: [ATTACK (M)] Rapier [THACO(10)] [18 = 18]

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): he gets chant bonuses

seyfert (N'laea): (I did notice! Adds some flavor, even if sometimes it's slightly ridiculous, lol)

seyfert (N'laea): (aka ridiculous to know it was an armpit, but fun to picture)

Tiberius: [ATTACK (M)] Rapier [THACO(10)] [6 = 6]

seyfert (N'laea): (something tells me that's still a miss...)

Indigo: Attack [6] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: 4 vs. -1 ] [AC: 4 ] [MISS]

Tiberius: [DAMAGE (M)] Rapier [TYPE: piercing, large (6d8+4=38)] [6d8+4 = 38]

Damage [38] -> [to Giant, Fire ] [STATUS: Heavy]

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): he hit giant fingeres!

seyfert (N'laea): (heavy damage because fingers bleed a lot)

mharmon1 (Talwin): (Should talwin still take the potion at this point? I think the giants will be more preoccupied with you lot)

GM: right now the location stuff is just flavor text if in the future we want to use actual charts we might make use of them,

Master TMO (Craigh): he shoved the point of his rapier deep into the giant's foot between the big toe and second toe, just like a long metal splinter

GM: but we have other things to impliment first

[TURN] Talwin

mharmon1 (Talwin): Thank you for that visual TMO

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I worry at some point my computer will refuse to run all the additions lol

mharmon1 (Talwin): No seriously, just parry and backup instead of potion?

Master TMO (Craigh): you're welcome!!!

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): whenever I do his attacks I want to say Tiberius attacks with his rapier wit - but then he doesn't exactly have wit to match his rapier so I restrain myself

seyfert (N'laea): (sword giant can't see us, but his souless friend can)

GM: so Yes Tiberius ran up to slice away at the blink Giant

GM: and grins with Lisa

mharmon1 (Talwin): Alright let me repharse for our GM. Who has the opportunity to actually hit me

mharmon1 (Talwin): Right now. If I back up

GM: rigth now no one can hit Talwin,

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): both

GM: BUT the giants have not gone yet

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): just because one is blind doesn't mean he can't swing at a negative

GM: one giant who did hit him last round is now blind

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): unless Bob changed the rules

GM: the other one is there but has not gone yet

mharmon1 (Talwin): Alright. Well. Do you guys want me to preseve the potion or just take it

mharmon1 (Talwin): I feel bad drinking it if it turns out to be unneeded :(

GM: an dyes to Lisa on anyone can swing wildly if they are blind

Talwin: Drinks potion

Talwin: (And promptly we all misunderstood the translation on the bottle and I end up making them Poisionous Fire Giants)

Master TMO (Craigh): LOL - venomous

GM: sorry exactly which potion?

Talwin: Not sure what this does bob. As dumb as that sounds. Am I good to keep swinging? Am I really kinda, you know, Iront Man at the moment?

seyfert (N'laea): Hey hey, we don't know. Maybe he's gonna eat those fingers Tiberius cut off, make some hot dogs.

mharmon1 (Talwin): Oh sorry. Potion of Invulnerability

GM: There we go

seyfert (N'laea): lol forgot that video was like that, sorry

mharmon1 (Talwin): I'm so sorry. What am I missing? Do I need to hop on Discord TMO?

GM: I dragged the Potion from Craigh's sheet over to the Effects on Talwin

mharmon1 (Talwin): (Where can I find those effects now?)

Talwin: (Sigh. I'm grabbing my headset)

GM: I am trying Michael

Talwin: Advanced Effect ['Giant-kin, 2-handed sword;DMGX:2'] -> [to Talwin] [by Giant-kin, 2-handed sword]

Master TMO (Craigh): I tried to move the potion to party inventory earlier, don't think it went

GM: OK

GM: so the potion is on Talwin's sheet and is equipped but the effect did not go into 'effect' automatically

Talwin: Potion, Invulnerability

mharmon1 (Talwin): (Sorry. Trying to activate)

GM: so just click next Michael

GM: and we will move on

GM: and know it is working

Master TMO (Craigh): we're not sure how to"use an item"

mharmon1 (Talwin): (If I'm invulnerable, i'm attacking)

Talwin: NM. TMO said that is the action. OK

GM: Yes drinking the potion is Talwin's action this rounde

seyfert (N'laea): (and/or while I measure things)

GM: you two decide

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): ok

seyfert (N'laea): (go ahead Indigo)

Indigo: Indigo being short and way in the back goes ahead with his original plan and charges full speed at the giants yelling and waving the potion in one hand and a sword in the other

Indigo: AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

seyfert (N'laea): (lol good?)

Craigh: trips over Indigo as he rushes past

GM: checking about a save

GM: and LOL not that generous

Master TMO (Craigh): and there goes our third intelligent weapon... ;) j/k

seyfert (N'laea): lol

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): it's metal fatigue - we used it when Sarengar was getting choked by a cursed metal necklace so I thought it would work here

seyfert (N'laea): (we have more than enough!)

GM: gotcha

GM: and yes that works on this sword to weaken it, it bends/droops down and is useless in combat now

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): blind and wilty

GM: Rae is up

seyfert (N'laea): (like a plant needing to be watered)

GM: Or needing a little blue pill

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): If I had known that, I might have moved last round instead. Oh well.

[TURN] Branwyn - [LIGHT: 60/0 continual light]

seyfert (N'laea): (just saying a potential option as well for Sharif)

seyfert (N'laea): (and it's okay, Bixi. N'laea will stay there to benefit from your spell :P)

Shislif (Zayden): oh yea for sure gonna backstab some mothers lol

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): sorry - didn't expect we'd be doing so well

Branwyn: moves forward and tries to stab a giant

Master TMO (Craigh): of course she does...

Shislif (Zayden): dang it

Shislif (Zayden): meant to action that sry

Shislif (Zayden): do I have to roll to sneak along the wall?

GM: you would roll a Hide in Shadows roll again

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): not like the blind one will see you :)

GM: and a Move Silently roll

GM: just to be complete

GM: and LOL with Lisa

Shislif (Zayden): Ok I'll do those

Shislif (Zayden): thanks!

GM: and yes you can get right up to the blind giant

GM: and can try a backstab on it

Shislif (Zayden): Can i try to climb him first?

Shislif (Zayden): climb n stab move :)

Shislif (Zayden): should I roll climb walls now?

GM: yes

Zayden: [SKILL] Climb Walls [PERCENT:Climb Walls] (vs. Target 95) [SUCCESS by 77] [d100 = 18]

GM: that you can roll openly as you will know if you fail

Shislif (Zayden): ok cool

Zayden I backstack it in the right ear

GM: and you manage to latch onto the giants belt, haul your self up and now you can try to stab your dagger into it

Shislif (Zayden): where is backstab?

GM: that is when you do damage

GM: first roll the attack

GM: I will let others explain how they do it

Shislif (Zayden): where is the attack again?

seyfert (N'laea): (hold on snipping this)

GM: How do the players do that? I use the CT

GM: Thank you Carissa

Master TMO (Craigh): no one has ever backstabbed that I know of

Zayden: [INIT][Reaction Adj: 0] [d10 = 3]

Shislif (Zayden): was that correct?

GM: no to Shislif, Carissa put options in the Discord for you

seyfert (N'laea): and to answer your question Bob, I usually do map, but sometimes it bugs out like earlier so I have to drag to CT

seyfert (N'laea): the first arrow was map, but after that hit it wouldn't roll again via map

Effect ['DMGX: 3'] -> [to Craigh]

seyfert (N'laea): dunno why

Zayden: [ATTACK (R)] Dagger [THACO(17)] [d20-3 = 15]

Attack [15] ->[ATTACK (R)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: 2 vs. -1 ] [AC: 2 ] [MISS]

seyfert (N'laea): (there you go)

Shislif (Zayden): that correct?

Attack [15] ->[ATTACK (R)] [at Giant, Fire ] [Hit-AC: 2 vs. -1 ] [AC: 2 ] [MISS]

seyfert (N'laea): (yes but now someone has to say how to do backstab bonus because that is outside the scope of my knowledge)

GM: Yes that is correct it is just a miss

Master TMO (Craigh): In Actions/Powers, you have a Backstab Multiplier. Click the Effects button (the yellow zombie) to d the +Attack and Dmg Multiplier

Effect ['Backstab Attempt;ATK: 4'] -> [to Craigh]

Shislif (Zayden): bummer but at least I did it yay

seyfert (N'laea): (how does he miss if he's literally on top of him...?)

GM: and next

Master TMO (Craigh): (the Craigh stuff is just a test, fyi)

GM: OH

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): dagger slipped?

GM: Wait

Effect ['Backstab Attempt;ATK: 4'] -> [EXPIRED] [on Craigh]

Craigh: [ATTACK (M)] Dagger [THACO(17)] [EFFECTS +4] [AC: 1 ] [d20+2 = 16]

GM: Carissa reminded me, he is at a minus 4 and you mised by 3 so that is a hit

seyfert (N'laea): (WOO)

Effect ['DMGX: 3'] -> [EXPIRED] [on Craigh]

Craigh: [DAMAGE (M)] Dagger [x3] [TYPE: piercing, large (d3-3=6)] [b3-3 = 6]

Zayden: Backstab Multiplier (Lvl 1-4)

Effect ['DMGX: 3'] -> [to Craigh]

Shislif (Zayden): that do it?

User has gone AFK. (LemonyLemon)

Effect ['DMGX: 3'] -> [EXPIRED] [on Craigh]

GM: so now you drag the effect to the giant then drag the damage

Craigh: [DAMAGE (M)] Dagger [x3] [TYPE: piercing, large (d3-3=0)] [b3-3 = 0]

GM: right TMO?

GM: I see TMO experimenting with things

Master TMO (Craigh): yes, I successfully did Backstab using Craigh's sheet

GM: the effect goes to the target then the damage goes to the target

Zayden: [DAMAGE (R)] Dagger [TYPE: piercing, large (d3=1)] [d3 = 1]

Damage [1] -> [to Giant, Fire ]

Master TMO (Craigh): what level is Zayden?

GM: 7th

Master TMO (Craigh): so it's x3 - I assume no strength addition?

GM: correct

Shislif (Zayden): So is that done with the attack?

Master TMO (Craigh): sp 3pts

GM: so Sharif, you did it out of order, you shoudl have dragged yoru backstab effect first THEN drag the damage die

GM: that would automatically do the triple damage for you

Shislif (Zayden): ok that makes sense

Master TMO (Craigh): the effects you could just click, not drag

GM: I can correct no worries

Shislif (Zayden): no worries that can just be how I learn for next time

GM: Morale Check Results: -------------------- fall back, fighting: "'Giant, Fire '","'Giant, Fire (Souless)'" -------------------- did not require check: "'Dwarf, Hill (Vintage leggings)'","'Dwarf, Hill (Missing left knee)'","'Dwarf, Hill 5'","'Dwarf, Hill 1'","'Dwarf, Hill (Puckering eye patch)'","'Dwarf, Hill 3'" --------------------

GM: The dwarves are not responding to you in W Comm

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): :)

seyfert (Raelynn): (lol yeah figured that might be it)

Zayden: chuckles

seyfert (Raelynn): (doubtful they know elvish :P)

steps back to the wall keeps his back to the wall but slides down to sit

Shislif (Zayden): How about C Comm?

GM: Fire Giant

seyfert (Raelynn): (please feel free to try :) )

Zayden: you'd think for being all chained up they'd want to communicate with us?

Holds his hands at his side

[ROUND 5]

GM: Talwin still had an action if he wanted

GM: before the next rounde

GM: and anyone else as well

GM: who did not go

mharmon1 (Talwin): I'm thinking

Shislif (Zayden): are we still in combat?

Raelynn: Nothing here seems to understand our language.

Raelynn: Well, except you.

GM: Yes still in combat until you are certain you are finished

Zayden: Uhhhh yeah...

Talwin: Seeing the Giant has surrendered, grunts in agony and observes the room, looking for additioanl threats

Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 1] [d20 = 12]

mharmon1 (Talwin): That's....a lot of dwarves.

Zayden: whoa lot of dwarves!

GM: 7

GM: each icon is only one dwarf

Shislif (Zayden): where's snow white?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): sneezy, happy, dopey, grumpy, doc, bashful and ....

mharmon1 (Talwin): Whoa! We got some vintage leggings over here. Bob, you spring for the fancty dwarves!

GM: ppoints to Rae?

seyfert (Raelynn): ?

GM: It is funny Michael you should have seen the story I did this week on the podcast about pants

GM: 3,000+ years old

Shislif (Zayden): oh lol I was like why are they so small? Forgot I could zoom

seyfert (Raelynn): well they ARE dwarves

mharmon1 (Talwin): Oh crap. I need to listent to that bob. I MUST now

GM: Anything else this round?

GM: so new round

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): You're really into extremely vintage pants or?

GM: what do you do about this giant that is sitting on the ground?

mharmon1 (Talwin): Well, it's not like we can tie him up.

Zayden: kisses?

Zayden: Aren't giants disarmed by kisses?

Indigo: I'll watch him if you want to look around

GM: You will have to listen Lemon

mharmon1 (Talwin): Also, the fact he's souless, means no one is going anywhere while he is still around

Shislif (Zayden): how do you mean?

mharmon1 (Talwin): Also, BTW, Bob, as my final combat action I rolled a succ obs. Did I see anything I was looking for?

Shislif (Zayden): like he'll turn on us?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I meant Michael. It was a really strong reaction to the information

Raelynn peeks around the corner to make sure nothing else is hiding by the dwarves before going to help them

GM: You do see that the giants had treasure with them

seyfert (Raelynn): Is it a chain??? I don't know that I care about other treasure at this point :P

Treasure

Shislif (Zayden): woooo treasure nice

Zayden: 8 gs

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): more treasue than we can carry

Raelynn Talwin can carry this treasure, too

Zayden: pretty tidy sum

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol, my first treasure find got us here, I'm over it.

seyfert (Raelynn): Talwin can carry this treasure, too

Talwin: Yeah, If I throw it at someone, it might hit it

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): not sure he can acrry 13K gp

mharmon1 (Talwin): Well...to be honest...i'd be better served lugging the GP then this sword...

Zayden: I'm not carrying much beyond my daggers

GM: 8,000 GO

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): we'll have to spend the night

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): the 5400 in the Keeper room too

mharmon1 (Talwin): With souless Giant? Yeah, no sure, It'll all work out ;)

Zayden: what if the dwarves want some of the gold? What if it's their gold?

mharmon1 (Talwin): Finders Fee for rescuing them.

GM: So the two things to decide are what to do about the giant, and what do to about the dwarves

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): the cost of freeing 7 dwarves is coincidentally 8000 gp

Raelynn: Um, does anyone speak anything these dwarves will understand?

GM: right now you cannot communicate with the dwarves

mharmon1 (Talwin): Yep. Lisa got my drift!

Zayden: well who can speak to whom?

Raelynn [Elvish]: [Translation] You don't understand this, do you?

You don't understand this, do you?

[understood by: Licornah, Raelynn, N'laea]

GM: no response

Master TMO (Craigh): polymorph them into hamsters, take them with us, and turn them back when we get home

GM: but the Giant flinches

Shislif (Zayden): I try C Comm with the dwarves

Raelynn: best plan I approve

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): ask your boyfriend if he speaks dwarvish :)

seyfert (Raelynn): best plan I approve

mharmon1 (Talwin): Oh, the giant too!

N'laea [Elvish]: [Translation] You don't like Elvish...?

You don't like Elvish...?

[understood by: Licornah, Raelynn, N'laea]

Shislif (Zayden): or how do I try C Comm with them?

N'laea: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 8]

N'laea [Elvish]: [Translation] Or is it something else that bothers you?

Or is it something else that bothers you?

[understood by: Licornah, Raelynn, N'laea]

GM: The giant seems uneasy with the Elvish going around

N'laea [Elvish]: [Translation] Do you understand me or is it only the sound you dislike?

Do you understand me or is it only the sound you dislike?

[understood by: Licornah, Raelynn, N'laea]

GM: Down in the chat, when you are chatting as Zayden, on the right side you can pick from any language you know to speak in that language

Zayden: Maybe we put the dwarves and the giant in a room together, let them solve it

N'laea [Elvish]: [Translation] Speak, giant, if you understand me.

Speak, giant, if you understand me.

[understood by: Licornah, Raelynn, N'laea]

Shislif (Zayden): Oh cool thanks!

Shislif (Zayden): do I just speak then?

GM: No good response back from the dwarves or the giant to N'laea's comments

GM: yes to Shiflif

seyfert (N'laea): no *good* response?

GM: This is round 5

N'laea frowns.

Zayden [C Comm]: [Translation] Hello Giant do you understand me?

Hello Giant do you understand me?

[understood by: Zayden]

GM: and no response to Zayden's comments either

Shislif (Zayden): that no?

Shislif (Zayden): cool

Indigo: Youtargim, do you speak dwarvish?

Zayden [C Comm]: [Translation] Hello Dwarves, you guys understand me?

Hello Dwarves, you guys understand me?

[understood by: Zayden]

C Comm Spoken By: Youtargim

N'laea [Gnomish]: [Translation] Gnomish is likely a stretch?

Gnomish is likely a stretch?

[understood by: Bixi Fizzlebang, N'laea]

N'laea [Hin]: [Translation] Or Hin?

Or Hin?

[understood by: Indigo, N'laea]

Indigo: shakes his head at all the strange chattering

N'laea shrugs

N'laea: I doubt they know animal speak. I'll save it for worthier ears.

Indigo: Dwarves don't speak Hin

Zayden [W Comm]: Hi dwarves you guys speak W Comm?

[understood by: Licornah, Indigo, Zayden, Bixi Fizzlebang, Craigh, Talwin, Raelynn, N'laea]

N'laea: I did not think so, but it did not hurt to try and see a reaction. The giant does not speak Elvish, but it clearly makes it uncomfortable.

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): won't ask why Indigo can't understand when N'laea speaks it

Zayden: Good to know

seyfert (N'laea): (likely needs to be in his sheet)

GM: When you speak in W Comm you can just use the top blank space

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

seyfert (N'laea): (or have Bob add it because I had similar problems with one of them for Nlaea)

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): It is in his drop down

Indigo [Hin]: [Translation] yes

yes

[understood by: Indigo, N'laea]

GM: and yes there was something wrong there too, when Zayden did C Comm only he understood but Youtargim should have also

N'laea [Hin]: [Translation] Test

Test

[understood by: Indigo, N'laea]

seyfert (N'laea): Odd. I understand Indigo

Craigh: Eep orp whanchalla dingdongadoo

seyfert (N'laea): Maybe she picked up an accent so he has a harder time understanding her :P

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): h wait I do see it

GM: so you have established that the dwarves do not speak any of the languages you know

Indigo: not used to understanding anything!

seyfert (N'laea): (lol!)

Zayden: I mean, if we can't figure out a way to communicate maybe we just leave em? Or else they can figure out a way to talk to us...

Master TMO (Craigh): But what if we speak very slowly and loudly?

Zayden: seems like their problem

GM: They are still chained up

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): LOL

seyfert (Raelynn): lol!

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yogurt is actually just the most worthless, no?

GM: and LOL with TMO

Craigh: HELLO? DO... YOU... UNDERSTAND.... ME?

mharmon1 (Talwin): Can't hurt at the very least to let them go

Shislif (Zayden): lol

Raelynn: We shouldn't leave them chained. We didn't leave you behind. But... we shouldn't release them all at once in case they're mad and attack us.

GM: and Youtargim is the only one who can speak with the giant

Zayden: good point! But I could communicate

Craigh: if it's important, I have two scrolls of Comprehend Languages.

N'laea: The dwarves or this giant might know where we might find what we came for?

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): it only lets us understand them. we still can't talk to them

GM: so you can decide the giant and the dwarves so you can move on

Craigh: Yep, but we have two. One on one of us, one on one of them.

GM: and out of combat for now

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is it too much to hope the giant is cringing because the chain we found works on him?

N'laea: Youtargim, why did he surrender? He is the first to do so.

Youtargim: I told him that if he did not surrender you would do to him that you did to the other one, points at the arrows

Youtargim: Told him to surrender or die

N'laea: That is accurate.

Craigh: drat, spell only works on the caster. That's a dumb spell.

Craigh: Unless one of them can cast from a scroll...

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): mages don't like sharing

N'laea: What are the plans of the giants here? What does this one know of their operation? And where the chain may be?

Youtargim: I did not ask him any of that yet

N'laea: We can do little with the dwarves at the moment. You might as well get what you can from the giant.

GM: Youtargim has a short conversation with the giant

Youtargim: He says that we will never find the chain, it is in a secret room

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): A secret room that we've already found, I hope.

Youtargim: He is here to make weapons to attack the elves

N'laea sighs

Branwyn: The secret room with the manticores?

Branwyn: Ask him

N'laea: If he wants to live, he will no longer be doing that.

GM: They talk some more

Youtargim: He will not say where the chain is more than taunting that we will never find it.

Youtargim: He does seem to be wary of the elves

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): holy jeebler, we're almost dead, throw us a bone.

Shislif (Zayden): can I sing for the dwarves?

Branwyn: Tell him then he is of no use to us and might as well be as dead as his friend there

N'laea taps her bow

N'laea and nods in agreement

GM: Talks in a more strident tone, pointing to Branwyn and the elves

N'laea has a whispered conversation with Rae in Elvish while they talk.

Youtargim: He says elves have no morals that what ever agreement you make you will break when you feel like it

N'laea (trying to make him uncomfrotable)

Zayden: hmmm sounds biased if you ask me

mharmon1 (Talwin): What is this? Ukraine and Russia?

Youtargim: I think he means more chaotic than evil,

N'laea: Ah, yes. We also like to take the ears of our enemies.

N'laea has a harder time refuting the chaoticness....

Youtargim: Maybe we can lock him up somewhere?

N'laea: The manticores are hungry.

Youtargim: Or use the chains from the dwarves?

Talwin: He is De-Nazifying The Shadow Lands by liberating elves and dwarves from theri lives. Go team. Jeeze

Zayden: would he fit in where the dwarves are if we empty out the dwarves first?

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): OOC plse for that

mharmon1 (Talwin): Also Sorry if that got a bit political Bob. I do somewhat try and keep that crap out of the game

mharmon1 (Talwin): My bad Lisa :)

mharmon1 (Talwin): I'm very sorry

GM: Yes he would fit over in that corner of the room where the dwarves are

N'laea: Why lock him up? He has yet to provide us reason to keep him alive, has he?

GM: and the chains in the wall are there

Youtargim: We told him to surrender and he did

Zayden: What yourtargim's sense?

Branwyn: He has surrendered. I will not murder him right this moment

Zayden: I feel like if we start killing people who surrender that sets a certain standard

mharmon1 (Talwin): Not like anyone else would ever know.

Branwyn: We do not kill people who yield

Branwyn: If the chains will hold him then let us do that.

Youtargim: Nods in agreement with Branwyn

Zayden: We could make him sacrifice a finger or a toe or an ear?

Craigh: Any way to put him to sleep?

Zayden: stanglehold

Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: This creature can not be considered a person

Zayden: pretty big though

N'laea: I respect those who yield, but not those who slander and slaughter my kind, especially not my ancestors. Do as you wish, but you may do it amongst yourselves.

Branwyn: I have nothing today and even so not for a thing that size

Zayden: Well if we leave him locked up in that room he'll likely die anyway, unless more giants come for him

GM: Youtargim talks with the giant some more, pointing at the dwarves and the chains

Branwyn: Oh N'laea if I killed everyone that slandered me there would be blood running in the streets

N'laea: He can rot like the orcs.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I imagine eventually someone will come down here and discover... um... everything

Zayden: probably shouldn't stay here too long perhaps

Youtargim: I told him that we will free the dwarves, chain him up there and if his friends find him then he will have his chance.

Bixi Fizzlebang: We've certainly left a trail.

Zayden: Can I sing for the dwarves? For practice?

Youtargim: I did say we would not give the dwarves any weapons.

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): oh yes there are bodies all over the place

Bixi Fizzlebang: If we leave him, I'm sure someone will find him before he dies... whether or not they would save him, I have no idea

eyes the wall of spears

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): who is eyeing?

Youtargim: But maybe we can just escort the dwarves a bit away from here and let them go?

N'laea: That you do not, Branwyn, is your choice. My clan lives differently.

Youtargim: (that was Youtargim)

Zayden: Well that's on them, we gave him a shot to survive that's probably the best we can do without knocking him out or killing him

Craigh: Put him in the room with the manticores?

Craigh: Not where they can kill him, of course.

Craigh: But it's behind a secret door.

Zayden: the room with the dwarves but without thee dwarves in it

N'laea: I believe that is where we are going next.

Branwyn: That is where we are going soon. I'd rather not take him there

Bixi Fizzlebang: What would be the purpose of that? Just ensuring that he's left to die?

mharmon1 (Talwin): Guys' im fading. I think I might need to call it :(

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): there is a fork in this hallway - do we need to check that?

GM: have a great night Michael

GM: Hope to see you next week

Shislif (Zayden): night take care :)

mharmon1 (Talwin): Night all. Thx for wonderful game :) And for saving my bacon :)

mharmon1 (Talwin): Hugs

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): goodnight Michael!

LorieD (Licornah): (night)

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): Goodnight

seyfert (N'laea): (night michael)

'mharmon1' disconnected

GM: That fork in the passage Lisa you know how far down it goes, it is a dead end

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): good to know - thx

seyfert (N'laea): (so the only thing we didn't check is the actual forge room over here? and the straight south hallway)

Master TMO (Craigh): it's hard to tell the difference between walls and the end of seen areas.

Shislif (Zayden): what if the dwarves know a way out or something? We could follow them after we release them?

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): Good odds the two doors we did not open yet are filled with orc slaves too

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): we don't want out

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): So what you're saying, BOB, if I'm following... is that we've explored the entire area, and the chain is, in fact, in the very first place we went. Which you enouraged us to go away from. Just want to see if I have this all correct. :P

Shislif (Zayden): plus they could help us fight

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): we can't talk to them

seyfert (N'laea): yeah the dwarves are a conundrum

seyfert (N'laea): let them go where they might alert the other giants?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yogurt can't talk to the dwarves?

GM: I did not encourage you to go in any direction Lemon,

Shislif (Zayden): yea but if we release they they'll owe us, dwarves always repay a debt

seyfert (N'laea): or hope they just.. linger here? follow us or....?

Shislif (Zayden): I'm not sure that's true lol

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): let's just get the chain thing switched

GM: You did find a secret room, found manticores, and found a pit trap you could not cross

Master TMO (Craigh): "yet"

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I mean, my memory could be faulty, but I seem to recall a lot of reminders about not having explored anything else... which feels like encouragement to explore to me lol

GM: there are areas you have not explored yet either

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): we were looking for water area too

GM: including what ever water way,

GM: nods in agreement with Lisa

GM: no stream yet

seyfert (N'laea): I think we went from purposeful exploring to somewhat completionist exploring still with purpose but also wanting to be completionists

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Going to be honest, I'm pretty over this place.

Branwyn: Let's try to sign for the dwarves to follow us and stop them if they try to go upstairs

seyfert (N'laea): uyuuuup

Branwyn: They are not going up until we are ready to leave

Branwyn: Indigo, help with the chains please

Indigo: Okay

Zayden: sounds good to me!

Indigo: looks at Giant

Bixi Fizzlebang: Can we help them get out safely if they stay with us? Even if we can't clearly communicate that, I would like to help them if possible

Indigo: STAY

Indigo: goes to help free dwarves

Shislif (Zayden): how do we free them?

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok

Zayden helps free them

GM: They are chained together, there is a large padlock on the end

GM: anyone with Open Locks?

Zayden looks at padlock

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): have to be the men this time

Master TMO (Craigh): (badly, but I have it)

Zayden: I got a 35 on my exams

Master TMO (Craigh): (it's usually a two-handed skill)

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): roll that lock

Master TMO (Craigh): (better thee than me)

Shislif (Zayden): ok

Zayden: [SKILL] Open Locks [PERCENT:Open Locks] (vs. Target 35) [SUCCESS by 26] [d100 = 9]

GM: to be clear for Zayden that Craigh only has one arm

Shislif (Zayden): it's good?

GM: and WOW

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Very nice!

GM: has he failed a check yet tonight?

Shislif (Zayden): oh ok lol sorry

GM: CLICK the lock opens

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): don't jinx him!

Shislif (Zayden): beginner luck is real lol

GM: and Indigo can slide the bar hold them in place

GM: the dwarves stand up and move gingerly away from the wall

Indigo: There you go!

Shislif (Zayden): what do they do?

Dwarf, Hill (Puckering eye patch) [Dwarvish]: [Translation] Thank you, thank you

Thank you, thank you

[understood by: ]

Master TMO (Craigh): berserker charge?

Indigo: Branadarus, can you get that giant moving?

Zayden: yes we should move them out and IT in...

Youtargim: I will get him

Zayden: Little turn of the tables action

Indigo: Thanks

Zayden: let me make some room here urgh

Zayden gestures at dwarves to get out of the room

Zayden with hands

User has gone AFK. (Shislif)

Youtargim [Giant]: [Translation] You get over here, we lock you up and then we walk away leaving you alive, remember that Countess Branwyn the Mysterious Branadarus has given you this chance

You get over here, we lock you up and then we walk away leaving you alive, remember that Countess Branwyn the Mysterious Branadarus has given you this chance

[understood by: ]

Youtargim: He will do what you say

Zayden returns

GM: The giant stands up

GM: walks over to the wall and sits again

GM: Youtargim tugs the chains around and over his legs with Indigo

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I almost feel bad

Indigo: Hopes this works

Zayden: we chaining him up?

GM: Youtargim hands the giant a spear from the far wall

Indigo: Yes. Almost done here

GM: and then walks away

Indigo: Secure I think

Zayden: huh? why would he give him a spear?

Youtargim: To prove we are not going to hurt him

N'laea: You are an idiot.

Zayden: ohhhh ok cool cool

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): My distaste to Yogurt is second only to Orthin

GM: chuckles

Bixi Fizzlebang: shakes head

Master TMO (Craigh): lol

seyfert (N'laea): If only you met Sunshine. I think I miss Sundrop?

Branwyn: All right. Let's drag the gold to the Keeper's room with the rest and then go back to the secret room

LorieD (Licornah): (You know my dice?)

GM: and so I think this is a good place to pause for the night

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): keep our loot in one place until we can room scroll it

GM: you can be at the entrance to this area to start, where the cat is now

GM: with the dwarves in tow

Shislif (Zayden): Coolio, hopefully we can get these dwarves moving too

GM: you can brainstorm how to communicate with them, etc

seyfert: and maybe finally find the chain??

Master TMO (Craigh): I will get the rest of the spells created pretty easily. And possibly start doing a book.

MadamePsychosis: That is incredible TMO. Thank you!

seyfert: Yes, much appreciated, TMO!

seyfert: Alright, I definitely need sleep. Night!

GM: It was a very good night

GM: lots of good tension

LorieD: Good night all
