Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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?"Time is an abstract concept created by carbon-based life-forms to monitor their ongoing decay." - Thunderclese

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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?Avatar by AstralSeal

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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."Time is an abstract concept created by carbon-based life-forms to monitor their ongoing decay." - Thunderclese

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.Avatar by AstralSeal

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.Avatar by AstralSeal

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I have been assuming that the PCs that no longer have players have been watching him.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Yeah, we can assume the absent party members have been guarding him while we explore the house.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.Avatar by AstralSeal

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I will assume that I was also stalled out watching the other prisoner.

If you live for people's acceptance you will die from their rejection.
Remember, no matter how hot she is, someone, somewhere is tired of her crap.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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?

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Byrok has proficiency with Vehicles (water). Is that enough for our group to pilot the vessel?

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Caspian is a sailor as well if that helps.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Caspian's sailor background helps. So the roll would be:

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.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I’m fine with being back in town. I personally don’t think he’s doing anything other than trying to get free.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
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.Avatar by AstralSeal
