Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
I was pretty vague with specifics in terms of amount of gold everyone had because I didn't want to stifle anyone's creativity - enough to buy standard equipment, but not really enough to buy magical equipment. I'm also not really enforcing carrying weight. So if there's specific things you're looking to pick up, just let me know and I'll approve it or say no. If it's something you could reasonably be expected to carry, thats fine, but I don't want someone to have 100 healing potions, or 1000 feet of strong rope.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
The main thing I was hoping to pick up, equipmentwise, was a breastplate. It's mundane but pretty expensive compared to the starting armors.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
We have no enemies visible, just the knowledge that some are out front and some are out back, right?

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Yup pretty much.
Also whatever is out the back door beat a perception check by Shavriel’s familiar.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Does breaking down the back door succeed?
Can't really post until I know if it does.Things published on DM's Guild

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Or, on a similar note, does it look like trying to break it down is working but needs more oomph? I can rage and Get Large to try and knock it down, but if the chair bounced off with no effect then I don't really want to spend the rage/take damage from a burning door.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Whoops. Was wondering why nobody else was posting.
Yeah the door falls apart with mild pressure - it’s just a regular wooden door.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
That plus being in initiative time with no clear opponent or direction yet. I posted to get get us moving out the back now that we know.

I'll probably regret this but why not She's moving very slowly to avoid being heard.

Nice rolls on the Perception and then the attack... I think I got a nice hit in for 10.Last edited by J-H; 2024-02-28 at 04:00 PM.

So we can see the distortion or was that just when the invisible person attacked? Can we discern its location exactly? If so I can attack it.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Okay wait a minute: I didn't post because I was waiting to see if the invisible person made their DEX save vs. Kerykes' Faerie Fire. To see if they become visible?

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
The faerie fire never happened because the grease spell knocked Kerykes prone. Fortunately enough party members were unaffected and they managed to kill the humanoid caster in one turn.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
For the record I was assuming either the party would hunker down in the bar or rush out the front to flee and/or fight. Meanwhile the wizard outside at the back was going to set the back door on fire and after a few rounds the whole inn, so when the party rushed the back door, it was just one guy out there. I did some random rolls off-site to determine number of enemies and where they were.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Hunh? How could they when .... yeah. I need to step aside from this because based on reading the IC and when players are posting nothing is making sense. Have fun guys.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Not to pile on, but it would help in making sense of the sequence of events to know where enemies fall in initiative in addition to ourselves.
EDIT: Also, just for future reference, as a barbarian Hallveig has advantage on dexterity saves when she can see the cause. It doesn't really matter in this case, since my initiative was so low and the guy was probably already dead anyway.Last edited by TriciaOso; 2024-03-01 at 01:52 PM.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
I also have questions. Why did the wizard go first? How come he did not appear after dying?
In any case, I believe this is more freewheeling game that I would enjoy. Thank you, Zjackrum, for the opportunity, must I bow out.
Have fun, everyone.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Alright then… I thought I kind of admitted I’m not the greatest DM… are people still interested in continuing?

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Honestly, even after ProudGrognard and SwordCoastTaxi backed out I was waiting to see how this conversation went; I thought if J-H and Awful were still in we could continue, even if a Barbarian - Rogue - Monk party is pretty limited. But this is a pretty disappointing response to the questions people asked.
Blowing off all questions about rules or even the sequence of events by declaring that you never promised to be a good DM definitely isn't the way to become a better one. I think I'm going to drop as well.Last edited by TriciaOso; 2024-03-03 at 04:40 PM.

Man, I've had some real trouble getting on the forums lately, what's -
Hurm.And the far stars cried, and the planets yearned;
But no man may know, for she'll ne'er return.

Re: The Da'mall - OOC Thread
Yes I suppose that’s valid too - I thought being knocked prone caused a character to basically lose their turn and screw up their movement. I couldn’t add initiative to the general lineup without giving away the number of enemies.
