How many do we have now? ((Halaza+Imaran+Algrith)+Tarmikos), Lyral, Zrehka, Lia, and Kel? Actually, where is Zrehka again? And is Jorah gonna just chill at the Inn and wait for the rest of us then? Or is he in the 1st group?

Hm. I wonder how they caught up to the dude who took off running at almost 50 ft per second. Halaza does have her unicorn, but can they all fit?

Or they can just see his dust trail... I think I like that option better. It sounds cool.

It's just not me without finding something to argue about. I'm a terrible person. At least I'm not a horse though.

I really should have learned not to mock the Dice Gods. Of course I get double 2s on my attack rolls.

Perhaps you have heard of the tortise and the hare?
Kidding, kidding.

You move faster than a horse though.

To be fair almost half the party moves faster than horses. For our party "Average speed" is around 40-50

The first two to one man, and one to the second. You mentioned that there were two men approaching Lyral: these were his targets.

Hey Cultist, I found an error on your character sheet. It says true neutral when you CLEARLY meant chaotic evil.

Hah! Not exactly. It should say Lawful Neutral, actually... (Lyral fits the bill, having a sense of professionalism and a personal code of honor). He enjoys his bloodletting and other activities a bit more than is comfortable for most, but he is loath to break municipal or provincial laws when it can be avoided.

Jesskya moves at tactical speed of 70ft... So they could easy catch up...
However they arnt riding her... She probably could carry them all but I imagine the guard and two book bashers would fall off a bareback unicorn moving at that speed with only a single saddle for all 4 of us...

Tarmikos isn't moving at almost 50 ft per 6 seconds, like the rounds time designated by base ft. His basic speed boosted is 70ft per round, and he's running, making it 280 per round. Since a round is 6 seconds, he's moving at 46.667* ft a second. So basically almost 50 ft per second.

I checked her character sheet, just to make sure. Jesskya could easily keep up had they both started at the same time, but Tarmikos does have at least a couple of seconds, if not a minute or two, of lead.

That's what I thought...

Although it's not like it's that big a deal to me. I just find it interesting.

I'll post in a bit. I think I will take a bit of creative liberties in my response, though, since he only specified you saw that I was taking a similar path.

I have it as a second unwritten Flaw that Tarmikos has no sense of dirrection. I tried to work both responses into mine, that Tarmikos may have appeared again while being totally lost and traveling for a few moments, but that he's still fast enough to cover some ground.

But yeah, when we get closer, we'll need to cut back on being loud and obnoxious.

Is Tarmikos actually suited to this kind of work?

Based on that description, sounds like Lawful Evil. Not trying to pressure you into changing or anything though. Haha.

Nah its still lawful neutral with evil tendencies. Lawful evil is all about abusing the law and using it to get the most power. Traditionally anyway.

"A lawful neutral character acts as law, tradition, or a personal code directs her."
- PHB, Page 105

My character grew up with a bunch of LN monks - the whole personal code and sense of honor is kind of engrained into his personality. While sometimes said code is pushing the boundaries of Lawful Evil territory, I will let the DM decide when and where my character has crossed his Moral Event Horizon. For now, Lyral hasn't actually done anything all that bad.

Serious Question, Qwerty: is our group at our destination? Or just on the way there? I was under the assumption of the later, although aparently Razorback and Demidos were in the train of thought for the former.

You all just got there, as I was under the assumption that you were still moving this whole time.
