A Thorn In The Hand OOC

[Malak'ai]

Hey guys, I'm having some problems with my internet so I'm having to use my phone, so don't expect any major replies.

[Malak'ai]

Just spoke with tech support from my ISP and guess what? My modem is dead... Yay.
So please bare with me for the next few days until I can borrow one off a friend.

[Malak'ai]

Ok, my internet is back up and running .

[Machuchang]

Woo! Glad to have you back, Malak'ai!

[Malak'ai]

Thank you .
Hope Eleanora is ok, we haven't heard anything from her for a while.

[Machuchang]

Posted somethin' yesterday, but yeah, I was out of town for a bit, and the internet situation was a tad sketchy. Sorry about that.

[Malak'ai]

No worries

Wow... I think I lost some time, I thought that was a couple of days ago.

[Machuchang]

Same thing happens to me all the time, dude. No worries.

Hope you like what I've done with Belkenstair .

Might take me a while to do replies to all current and future questions about the mission as I'm juggling school work as well.

It's awesome! I love it.

[Malak'ai]

Also, please forgive if the accents of the different races seems inconsistant, I haven't fully decided how I want them to sound, and also, I'm not very good at putting accents into text .

[Marlowe]

And for me, please forgive that

[Malak'ai]

Smoked, honey glazed or plain? .

[Wordplay]

Hmm...let me know if I need to make any checks for that Disguise self. Obviously when I meet people I'm trying to trick I'll need Bluff and Disguise checks, but at the moment I just mean for spell failure/success.

[Machuchang]

Sorry if I keep making Eleanora seem snooty. She'll come around, I promise.

[ExtravagantEvil]

Sorry I've been relatively silent, I've been a nervous wreck getting my license, so now that that's better, I'll post regularly again

[Machuchang]

@EE: Woo! I trust it all went well?

[Wordplay]

Oh, assume 500 in the pot from Clearsight for items, more if we need it, and the drinks on Raif for a while. He just needs to attend to his ministry first...

[Malak'ai]

@Marlowe: Who is it that Varossa is talking to at the moment? The party of the general camp populous?

[Marlowe]

General camp populace. If party members are going to spread confusion, she'll try to help, trusting they know what they're doing.

But I think from those rolls it's pretty obvious she's not sure it's the best idea.

[Marlowe]

General camp populace. If team-mates are spreading confusion, she'll try to help out and trust they know what they're doing.

Even if thos rolls suggest she really doesn't think it's a good idea.

Apologise if this is a double-post, Chinese Internet is being Chinese Internet.

[Machuchang]

Oh goodness gracious, clutch Nat 20!

EDIT: Okay, maybe not clutch, but I don't think it's too bad here.

[Marlowe]

On a slightly different note: The party Ride checks:

Drayner:+3
Verossa:+3
Halabar::+2
Raif: +0
Dame Eleanora: +8
Daranand: +1

I don't think we'll be too terrible as dragoons. No horrible dex penalties anyway.

[Malak'ai]

@Marlowe: I don't know how, but G must have gotten ahold of my dice... I can't roll anything over a 5!!!!

@Everyone: I have been roped into a weekend long birthday party/drinking session so I'll post what happens as soon as I'm sober enough to think straight... I DO know what is going to be happening in the near future though .

[D_Man_7733]

We all go up a level and get magic horses? (I will name mine shadow-step)

[Malak'ai]

LOL D_Man, I'm not that drunk . Send me a couple of cases of Jim Beam Bonded and about 5 cases of L&P (Unknown outside of New Zealand... It's a kind of lemon flavoured soda) and I'll consider it .

[Wordplay]

I like L&P.

@Arranis: Thanks that's just what I was hoping you'd do.

[Wordplay]

@Marlowe: wait, what, this world has a Westphalia but not a Bavaria?

@All: hopefully this was a somewhat amusing side-story. I tried to end it before it dragged. At least now when Belkinstair inevitably betrays us, Clearsight can call him out on it. (Don't think Clearsight actually made that betrayal any less likely).

[Malak'ai]

Ok guys, I'm sober again, but can barely move .
Looks like I've got a lot to catch up on, so hopefully I've done that in the post I just made.

@Wordplay: Ummm... I'm now going to have to change a lot of the story now. I can honestly say Belkenstair wasn't going to betray you... But now? Well, read the post .

[Arranis Thelmos]

You hear something crash? That was a carefully composed plot for this adventure.

YEEEEEEEEEHA BOYS! COME ON! WE'RE TAKING THIS TRAIN OFF OF THE RAILS!
