That's fine, I was wondering was U-b telling my character to show respect or was he refering to the ghost hound? If it was me then he is being hypocritical since I would technically be a shaman of my people...

Gregor was addressing Korgoth. Not sure if he knows Korgoth's profession, probably he does not.

Yeah, it is unclear if any of us know each other, unless explicitly mentioned in the backstory. Grath, for example just showed up in the village a few days ago and stuck around for the party. He didn't know that he was getting into an adventure. Or maybe he did, and just thought he didn't know. It's kinda meta.

Sorry about not posting IC yet, I've been having connection issues at home and the thread was moving pretty quickly. My post will be up soon.

EDIT- And is this a fine color for her? Sorry that I didn't notice that Navy had been taken.

No harm done。I'm sorry things went so fast. We're about done with the stuff I really needed you to know but Ingva will linger for a little until she's sure everyone's had a chance at ask something.

Minor altering of reality as silly Marlowe realises he's mixed up min/level with rounds/level.

Northward Ho! Hope that didn't seem railroady boys and girls, I won't even pretend it wasn't the main plan. The sea voyage option would have been interesting. Going south or east, well, it would have made no sense.

Whitewater Rip is a logical place to end up if you're heading in certain directions, not so much others.

Ah, knowledge checks, boys and girls?

Those without ranks are still at max 10, but let's see what you can do. Roll some dice. In the IC thread please, spoilered if you want.

Horay for tall cliffs! This is why orc barbarians shouldn't roll for knowledge skills, my friends.

That only means you miss hidden pockets and the like. Just take 10 or 20 when we set up camp and you'll find the macguffin we need.

EDIT, and on another topic, how'd the settling in process, Marlowe?

Yeah, so I'm trying to play Grath according to alignment and wis. He may not make the best choices, for himself or the party. Let me know if you think I'm going overboard, so far he's doing his best to hold back but he gets impulsive sometimes. Such is the life and death (hopefully not) of an orc.

Also, name Grath's speech impediments! Winner gets my respect and cool points. But the points don't matter. Name that reference too and you get a cookie.

"Grath is a sensible fellow. He should go far."

My campaign's got a case of the saturdays. If anyone's out there let's just assume that Gregor and Delphi have passed on the information in the spoiler.

In future I'll only spoiler general information if I think it's something the character should/might want to keep to himself.

Yeah, just got home. Gregor always tells whatever he discovers in business-as-usual circumstances, including whatever is in past spoilers, just did not think it would make any difference copying it around.

upd: Grath is totally awesome, however Gregor considers him to be one of the most common-sense-capable persons whether that was or was not intended.

I don't know about common sense, I just had him wander away from the party by himself, when common sense says you should never split the party. Also, he picked up a picture book without checking for traps or anything.

But he's not totally without common sense, just doesn't see wasting time with burials and funeral services for people he never knew.

Hey guys, I think I am going to drop the game, I am not really enjoying how my character is fitting in with the group and everyone else seems to have bonded to an extent. So far I am not overly enjoying myself so I wish you the best of luck with the game.

Well, that sucks. Sorry to hear that.

Though, could you do us one favor? Post one last time about Korgoth leaving. It'd make the whole no-more-acting thing make a lot more sense. Though, I guess Marlowe could also simply do this.

Tha'ts kind of sad...

Of course, Korgoth can turn back to live a long peaceful life in Whitewater Rip or some such, but maybe you can just re-think his personality? It is not set in stone so far, so if you could think of any other set of ethical rules you are interested in playing (these might be just as expressed, just not conflicting with classics of adventuring life), I invite you to do so.

The DM can do it, really you just basically dissed the guy's religion so he probably would attack and I don't want anything like that to go down hence why instead of doing anything stupid I am going to simply back out.

And trying to enforce his way of thinking basically counteracts Dardiana's entire lifestyle.

Still, I respect your decision. If you're not having fun, then there's no reason to continue.
