I think I am ready to head back to town now.
Should we start recruitment now so we can get back to a full party?
Should I just assume that you go through the rest of the house and check it out carefully? There is one encounter here that would definitely happen if you check it out.
I'll look at recruiting people on Monday. Initially I took 6 people, but do we want to cap the party at 4 or 5 instead?
I find 5 PCs provides a good balance between character capabilities and play speed.
Was thinking of having Yue fly up to the roof from the outside and see if there is a hole in the roof to check the attic.
Not sure if we want to try for another encounter with only 2 PCs.
I agree. I am not sure two PCs would be capable of fighting a full encounter. Probably better to return to town, recruit more players, then return to do a final sweep of the house quickly before we continue the adventure. I also think 5 PCs is probably an ideal number, though if there are sufficient good applications, I won't be heartbroken to have six PCs.
The people I'd ask first would be those who originally applied and I passed over, to see if they're still interested. We'll see how many we get after that.
I'll look through the adventure, there is one thing that should happen right now, but there's not much left anyway. I'll start sending out recruitment stuff today can keep you updated here.
So, there's only one more scene in the house that would make sense to happen now, I'll post it IC and you can decide if you want to deal with it now or with a party.
I also want to give the loot from the rest of the house to the two of you before we add more people to the party, so I've included it all below.

I reached out to Lioslaith to check if he was still interested, but his inbox is full - if anyone can reach out to him another way, can you see if he's still interested?
We will put the items found into the bag of holding for safekeeping.
What have you guys been doing with Sanbalet? Is he following you around or tied up somewhere for you to get him later? Maybe sticking with the other party members who are ostensibly still there?
He won't get away or anything, just checking on the logistics of that part.
I have been assuming that the PCs that no longer have players have been watching him.
Yeah, we can assume the absent party members have been guarding him while we explore the house.
So, for gathering the party: all of Lioslaith, Snarkhunter, and Vozen expressed interest so we'll see about them posting.
The plan for the story is to wrap up the conversation with Ned and then get into town. If anyone has personal buisness or anything they want to do in between adventures we can do that, and then pick up with the next adventure.
I will assume that I was also stalled out watching the other prisoner.
Should we try to sail that boat back to town with all of the contraband, or just walk back and tell the authorities about it?
Da law o da sea says we found it it be ours, arrrrr. Lol
Byrok has proficiency with Vehicles (water). Is that enough for our group to pilot the vessel?
Caspian is a sailor as well if that helps.
Caspian's sailor background helps. So the roll would be:
Advantage on Prof (for water vehicles) + Str, Dex, or Wis (for rowing, navigating, perception, etc.)
Ok then I think we take the boat and Byrok will attempt that pilot roll when its time.
Sorry everyone, I haven't been online much cause of NaNo. I'll try to be on more but my posting this month may be slow.
Are we all talking to him?
No, I posted that I waited until the whole party was alone with him, so you will be there to hear it and can comment.
Whoever wants to be around to talk can, I'm not too worried about it. Reply coming later today.
I’m fine with being back in town. I personally don’t think he’s doing anything other than trying to get free.
Moved us on to the town.
Alright, so the first adventure is fully wrapped up. As for where we go from here.
I'm gonna be busy through the end of the month and then on and off busy through December because of holidays. What I'd imagine in character would be you all having a little bit of downtime before the next adventure kicks off, meaning a couple posts where you can take care of personal business/start any personal goals that you want to work on.
Now is the time to post here or in thread with whether or not you'd like to continue playing so we can see who we have left. I know I've pinged people a couple times, I just need to make sure to have a final count while it would be convenient to re-recruit.
