For everything that needs to happen. During combat, I'll use paint to make the grids with the relevant information and post it here. Rolls will take place in the IC thread; It'll give me a headache. I'm only doing one paint image a round, btw.

Also, I want Arranis Thelmos and Malak'ai to roleplay either why their characters aren't constantly at one another's throats-that is, they seem to view the Dragon in very different ways. How they manage to deal with this will be very crucial to how I sculpt adventures.

I'm thinking Garen would have more of a problem with the Aiel than with Jelor, but ok .

'Frog: Awesome pic. Malak'ai: I was working off the backstory of Jelor and Garran; it seems to me like Garran would dislike the Dragon because whenever the Dragon has arrived, Garran has chickened out.

I understand that, but it's the Dragon's forces he ran from, and in both places in Garen's backstory the Dragon's forces were mainly comprised of Aiel.
I have no problem with RP'ing conflict with a party member, just as long as both players are on the same page OOC.

Rhaern's history has him on a quest to seek out a group of people in the wetlands. The reasons are unknown to him but I expect the party members match the descriptions. That should stop me from just slitting your throat if you attack the Aiel.

Seriously though inter party conflict can be fun but I expect that we'll all be apologising to one another on this thread for things said in the IC thread.

Probably, especially since there are a couple of Aiel in the group.

I'm inclined to agree with this, and with the later statement that it was the Aiel who invaded both places.

Of course, I am perfectly capable of being disagreeable with all of you.

Clarkson: Maec does not know that Garran insulted Jelor. If combat begins between Garran and Jelor, Jelor gets a surprise round.

Garran gets a surprise round against Jelor? Wouldn't that be the other way around because Garran is passing Jelor, unaware of the fact that he unwittingly insulted him? Also, Maec grabbed his attention with a question.

Opening map here. Gray C's are commoners. A ranged attack that misses will continue to go in a straight line until off the map or until it hits a commoner. If you can't figure out who's who other than that, OMG that's bad.

Wow, that was actually lucky I didn't crit just then. Taking a (future) party member to -9 in the first strike, while impressive, isn't what I consider a good start... Neither is starting out a relationship with a fight in the first place but hey .

Ummm... I think I might disregard the second AoO as it IS a crit and will kill Garen, seeing as the first one has already taken him to -6 ... Might be wanting to call in the Wisdom (or what ever they're called in Illian) McDougal.

EDIT: Also Arranis, you did 6 damage to Jelor because you forgot to add your STR to the damage. And checking your sheet, you've forgotten to fill out your BAB and Base Saves (again ).

Wouldn't I get an AoO against Jelor for moving close to me while I have a reach weapon?

I can add my Str modifier to melee weapon damage? I didn't know you could do that! In this case though, would it be my Dex mod because I have the weapon finesse feat?

Sigh... And I'll go fill in my BAB and saves... Again. (this is the third time now, right? )

Arranis, do you have a random name in the guard to who it would be REALLY embarrassing to come across and find out you got floored, and a COMMONNER captured the perp?

EDIT: What I'm going to do is have Garan tossed out of the guard, and Jelor tossed out of the city, rather than have the city guard admit that they only caught the perp because a commonner tackled him after the guard was KO'd. Either that, or Garan will resign due to shame and get a little discharge money. Your choice.

Nope, because I technically attack as soon as you move not once you've finished eg: you turn to run and BAM sword in the butt. And sorry to say, but your attack wouldn't have actually happened either as I did hit you with the AoO's which negates anything that happens afterwards, but I accepted it anyway, couldn't take you down without letting you have at least something to show you put up a fight .

Yes, yes you can .

McDougal already covered this, but no. Weapon Finesse lets you use Dex to HIT for a light melee weapon, no for damage.

Yep . Don't worry, you know I'm a snoop when it comes to others character sheets .
