Offcourse I am taking it all, silver table knife goes next to the other 5 tool knives.

Not much else to say, but let's move on! :)

[Phyzor]

DM: Did I get a response about King Grol's whereabouts?

DM: Did I get a response about King Grol's whereabouts?

Sorry, I missed your post. I'll update my previous post in the IC with the response

[Luccan]

Anyone have any input on what route you want to take to the cavern?

I was waiting to see if anyone had any preferences but they don’t so we’ll just go over the bridge.

[Phyzor]

I think it makes sense we're taking the bridge.

[Infernally Clay]

So... are any of these guys close enough to get hit by a spear like last time or will Sigrún just have to run at the nearest goblin and take their head off? :P

They're far enough away you'll have to charge in. Get any closer and they'll notice the light from Yorrel's ring

[JNAProductions]

Lonnie's not really in position to Help Sigrún, but if someone else wants to or if the DM will grant advantage for the earlier murdering...

[Luccan]

Gonna let Netish's words count as the Hell action if Sigrún wants to reroll.

It seems we may have lost NontheistCleric as well, but I'm willing to wait until the new year to call it and just run Yorrel for combat for now. It's the holidays, so I understand if people have to step away for a bit

[Infernally Clay]

I'll reroll it here then. (1d20)[13]

A +5 to the result ain't bad.

[Luccan]

Initiative order

Smelkie
Regular Goblins
Myrus
Della
Lonnie
Sigrún
Netish
Maria
Yorrel
Yeemik(lead goblin)

Is there a way to cast a Sleep spell without risking putting her allies to sleep? If so how many goblins does Maria have a chance to knock out and still have the party not in area of effect? This is why we need maps. :)

[Phyzor]

Was i able to hide or spot the human?

(1d20+7)[23] stealth
(1d20+4)[12] perception

[JNAProductions]

I'm not last! Yay! :P

You'll almost certainly be able to hit multiple goblins without worrying about the party. You're basically at the mouth of the cave, so they can't really surround the party and the ground level is only 20x20 so they can't really spread out


Smelkie hides successfully but you can't see the human from where you are. If nothing else you aren't seeing anything that looks like they killed him either

[Phyzor]

In that case i will hold my attack until one of my teammates is up and in melee

[Phyzor]

Unsure wheter Sigrùn is engaged, but i assume the goblins go before me because im holding my attack

[Luccan]

Sorry, everyone, still dealing with the end of the holiday. I will start us moving again soon and will double check to answer any questions

No worries, all it takes is a post like this to let us know real life is also happening and you're still around

[Luccan]

Sigrún would be engaged with a a foe, so no need to hold an attack.

Question to everyone, what would be your preferences regarding battle maps? I've been running this Theater of the Mind style because I've never found an easy way to present battle maps for play-by-post, but if anyone has suggestions I'd be willing to give it a shot

Mind Theatre is a-okay with me. :)

[Phyzor]

Im ok like this

[Lentrax]

Theater of the mind is fine with me.

[Luccan]

Hey everybody, happy new year! Thanks to everyone who responded to my question about battle maps so far. We'll stick to theater of the mind for now, but if ever anyone feels they need a visual I'll see if I can rig something up for that turn/round/exploration segment.

On that note, I'm pretty sure we're down to 6 players at most and maybe even only 4-5, so sound off if you haven't posted in a bit and still want to continue with this game. Otherwise I'm gonna go ahead and move forward with all the player turns* that haven't posted yet

*Edit: that's everyone except Myrus, Smelkie, Maria, and Netish, if you need a reminder

[onlie2005]

Was Maria able to cast her spell or was she knocked out by that attack on her?

[Luccan]

Afaik Maria is still on her feet. I am not keeping active track of your HP, as I don't tend to do that at the table. I'll post everyone's turn, but if Maria is up she'll knock out at least a few goblins

[Infernally Clay]

I'm still here! I didn't think it would be her turn again so soon is all. My bad. I'll get a post up.
