Legacy of Fire II [OOC]

[Starbin]

Excellent ... Meemas, expect flowers the day after yesterday.

Down Comforter should be back today. He said he'd be gone until Wednesday.

Hope he does come back. Pleeeaasse.

[Down Comforter]

I'm back! Updated the IC thread.

[shugyosha]

Yea! Glad to have you back

[Frivolous]

Yay! Thanks for coming back, DC.

[Starbin]

For the record, Krog wasn't necessarily going over to the figure Vicky saw ... he was more going for target of opportunity, i.e., the closest, most suspicious looking person. I suppose they could be the same guy, but I just so want to avoid the whole "good cop, bizarre cop" episode that our rapid-fire posts may generate.

[Frivolous]

My rolls in this game so far really suck. Even in a skill I have ability bonuses and a rank in. :)

... and nevermind ... looks like we're doing that.

[Down Comforter]

Oh, I'll keep a running tally of the current XP of the party on the first post to make it easier for everyone to find.

100/1300 after successfully putting out the fire.

@Starbin
He seems to be telling the truth.

[Dayaz]

Geso is trying to convince some nearby people to tell him some info... would that be Gather information, or Diplomacy?

*says in a deep growling voice* There is no Gather Information. There is only Diplomacy in Pathfinder.

[Down Comforter]

Frivolous is correct in that regard.

However, you'll have to actually speak to people rather than just gathering information through a check. People you can talk to are:

Almah
Garavel
The Priest
Dashki
The Mercenaries
The Bodyguard
The camel drivers

[Down Comforter]

@Frivolous
Perception check, please.

[Frivolous]

Perception: (1d20+7)[24]

[Starbin]

Heh ... friendlier members ... heh ...

The walking faux pas and the drunken 'investigator' make for a GREAT set of snoopers. Throw in the DM and we have 'Bad Cop, Worse Cop, Not even sure he's a cop!'

[Down Comforter]

@Starbin
You sure Krog is CG and not CN?

[Starbin]

Well, he hasn't actually killed the guy, right? Right now it's all talk. I've met plenty of people who talk smack, but when push comes to shove, things change.

Now, from his perspective, he thinks this guy is an a$$ ("Hello pot, my name is kettle!") and wonders if he isn't a little guilty. Grabbing a hilt and calling names, however, definitely changed the dynamic. I don't plan on Krog cutting anyone down, if that's what you're worried about ... but he might beat him with the flat of his blade if our resident gnoll-expert pushes it.

Am I coming off too strong for the drunk of a barbarian who has a self-image issue?

EDIT: Seriously, if I'm darkening the game too much, I'll lighten up if you like ...

[Down Comforter]

It's perfectly fine. Just wanted a warning that killing the scout might be cause for an alignment change

[Starbin]

For the record, based on their 'relationship' to gnoll's, you may have heard of them before ... or maybe not. I haven't rolled a KS to see if Krog knows about them, but OOC, the link is

Spoiler

REDACTED

for pugwampis.

[Frivolous]

Oh interesting. I thought Krog had used an orcish word for gnolls, but I really didn't know for sure.

I'm going to roleplay Grace as being ignorant, if it's all the same to everyone.

[Starbin]

Nope ... he was just repeating what Dashki said. If he doesn't know what it is, he won't admit it by saying that to the others, even if they look at him strangely.

[Down Comforter]

There goes my reveal.

[Frivolous]

Oh sorry, DC. I didn't know it was like that.

Sorry.

[Starbin]

Ooops ... guess I just lost some xp. Hopefully everyone will scratch that ... link removed ...

[Starbin]

If I could make two comments, before we get completely chewed by Garavel.
1) I guess I didn't realize that he was still standing there while we talked with one another and figured out a plan ahead ... I thought he had gone about his business - even Krog would consider it bad form to talk 'private shop' in front of the 'boss.'

2) I'm guessing that DM was referring to the whole pugwampi thing, not the goat (but that's just a guess).

That being said, let me know if Garavel still acts like that ... it will color how Krog goes about his business. Especially since I'm guessing we weren't hired to be super sleuths!

[Down Comforter]

He never walked off, but okay. We'll assume he wandered off while you were discussing your plan, but overheard the hunting for pugwampis and the drinking bit

[Down Comforter]

Whoopsie. It's not my fault all half-orcs are named the same. /fantasy racism

[Starbin]

No worries ... one's a hulking, drunken barbarian, and the other is a weird oracle, haunted by his family ... totally honest mistake

I just remembered the other character from the group divvying ... I expect it will happen more than once, so no worries
