You mean you have a life outside this game? I kid, I kid, I know you've been busy with more important and more awesome stuff.

Eltain, master of talking too much.

Does Aramil mean Bel, or Belial?

Bel - Ruler of Avernus the 1st Hell, General of the Fiendish armies

Belial - His daughter Fierna (whom he "advises") rules Phlegethos the 4th hell

Mando Knight · 07-31-2012, 02:33 PM

I mean Belial.

Don't everyone start talking at once.

That is all, carry on.

That's not an inaccurate mental image.

Orsik Vondal · 08-03-2012, 04:30 PM

Ash is going to take a look at the "uniforms" of Zyrr's crew, so he can disguise his Imposter's armor at a moment's notice. He is also going to practice his language skills: the jargon, slang, crew names, and an accent if the crew predominantly has one. He is going to practice seamanship with Zyrr, so he can fit in and not be a burden on the crew.

Toric · 08-03-2012, 06:10 PM

Zyrr likewise will pass word along to his crew about the change of plans. Fiendish look and mannerisms, the valuable cargo of pit fighters, and the brand new landlubber crew member to break in.

dariathalon · 08-03-2012, 07:39 PM

Here's that arcana check you requested.

Arcana - (1d20+28)[36]

The weave comes to a halt perhaps 300 paces in front of the ship

I am continuing under the assumption that these are normal human paces. So something like a football field away?

Yep. When I say pace, what I mean is yard.

Nai_Calus · 08-05-2012, 04:47 PM

When someone says pace, I think about a foot. :P

And this is why you use proper units of measurement, kids.

Granted, this is based upon a life of walking behind short people who insist on walking very slowly and taking very small steps to where you want to drop something heavy on them or just shove them out of the way.

dariathalon · 08-05-2012, 04:57 PM

An addendum to my last IC post. The other part of the reason Pavick is against Eltain's plan is he really doesn't have much in the way of concealment illusions. I should probably get around to rectifying this soon. But in the meantime, Pavick is reluctant to talk about his own shortcomings. It wasn't a bad idea, just not one that Pavick is really capable of undertaking.

Nai_Calus · 08-05-2012, 05:06 PM

Heh, no worries, Eltain is satisfied with Pavick saying he doesn't want to risk him without backup. Eltain is very familiar with that feeling, it's why every assassination the rebellion carried out was done by him.

Eltain can at least change his clothing to look like whatever, but he's probably the most recognizable person ever, heh.

Hzurr · 08-06-2012, 12:56 AM

It's times like this that I really regret that I'm not a writer, because I have these ridiculous images in my head that I can't really convey well here.

Nai_Calus · 08-06-2012, 12:59 AM

I got the message well enough. Yay. Millions of fiends.

Hzurr · 08-06-2012, 01:03 AM

Oh, could I get a history & perception check from any who wish it? (and who are looking outside?) Asheroth has a +2 bonus to both of these checks.

Orsik Vondal · 08-06-2012, 08:19 AM

Religion- (1d20+20)[35]

Perception- (1d20+11)[29]

Nai_Calus · 08-06-2012, 08:31 AM

Presumably Eltain can look through a porthole, or looked earlier:

History: (1d20+16)[28]
Perception: (1d20+8)[21]

Hzurr · 08-06-2012, 09:55 AM

Ah, I'd forgotten you have that one thing that lets you swap religion & history. That confused me momentarily.

Orsik knows that Ice Devils all belong to Mephistopheles & Cania, but are often "rented out" to other Archfiends for various reasons to serve as generals & commanders. In addition, looking out over the vast fleet of Ships, there is no sign of any ship belonging to Mephistopheles (or any of the archfiends of Cania).

I actually don't. I just mislabeled the roll, but they have the same modifier.

...then what am I thinking of? Don't you have some ability that lets you sub one type of skill roll for another, or am I thinking of a different version of this character?

Nai_Calus · 08-06-2012, 10:37 AM

You're just getting senile now that you're old like me.

I kid, I kid. :)

Orsik Vondal · 08-06-2012, 10:44 AM

I can roll 2 Streetwise checks and take the higher. That's what you're thinking of.

Hmm...no, I remembered that. I must be thinking of something else. Maybe it's just something I read in some sourcebook that I mentally applied to Ash.

*shrug*

Also, for the record, I have no idea how y'all are getting out of this. However, if there's one thing that this game has shown me, it's that you guys have an uncanny ability to come up with ridiculous, out-of-left field plans that somehow work. So I'm not really worried.

Orsik Vondal · 08-06-2012, 01:19 PM

If Toric doesn't post in an hour, Ash is going to start introductions, because that is probably what Ash would do in that situation. Ash doesn't want too much silence to pass.

Toric usually posts in the early evenings, if I remember correctly, so its likely he hasn't had a chance to see it.

Nai_Calus · 08-06-2012, 01:26 PM

Patience. Toric doesn't usually get off work and online until around 6pm EST. There's no correlation between time IRL and time in-game. Give the captain time to post. Not everyone is on all day like we are. ;p

Actually, I know for a fact he hasn't seen it, he went to bed before I did, and I went before Jon posted. So. :)

And I already know what Eltain's plan is for getting out of this. I just need to figure out how I'm gonna pull it off.
