I'm Central Standard Time, but my hours are so strange with work that my time zone means nothing.

Well, there is ONE thing...
There seems to be a lack of rations in Teene's bag.
At which point, it would seem silly to play out her getting some rations when she could've just done it when she was up early early in the morning.

Otherwise, it'd be nice to move on.

And here I was about to say that I thought you put the wolves howling in for atmosphere, rather than an actual encounter or anything.

Metagaming is only bad if the players do it.

Wolves are considered by many to be cteatires of shadow, but some scholars claim they were made as natural guards against evil forces.

Note to self, don't think, oh I'm just one post behind, I'll catch up tomorrow.

Boom, suddenly a whole page appears. Not that I'm complaining.

Hm.. I think Vass just became a bit more paranoid than I thought he was.

Edit: Ah right, I forgot that I had planned for Yssa to be doing the spotting for Vass...

Well, since he was the one doing trap searches maybe it's only fitting he'll be the one to trigger what he can't detect.

Anyway, it helps that he is in a party with a bunch of healers I guess...

EDIT: Hmm...it might not actually be Explosive Runes, since a level 3 trap spell should be found by his search. That, or he should've inspected the book on its own to detect the trap.

Untrained Knowledge (Nobility)- (1d20)[18] Vass wasn't one for Heraldry.

My IC post will be based upon what information, if any, Vass can recall.

You know they are all of noble houses....that's about it. You also believe they are individualized signets, representing specific people instead of just the houses in general, but you don't know who or what houses.

Is the tiger back on the prowl? Or is this a sneak post? Either way I'm jazzed that there's an update.

Anoush doesn't really sees himself as a spellcaster/caster anyways (fluffwise, his warlock powers are more of an inherited ability that he improved than an actual class choice). He's thinks of himself more as a rogue-ish kind of guy with access to magical abilities.

I'll post after either Rado or Teene responds, so that the posting order would make more sense.

Actually, the plan was to ditch the horses, then Anoush will give his wands of alter self to Joan and Vassikyn, hoping that the Share spells feature will affect their mounts and turn them into some fast flying mount.

The story was that Anoush saw a Paladin (possibly a Sorcadin) transform his mount into a Pegasus using the Alter Self spell. Of course, it is a gamble in that Anoush doesn't know if that works with wands(what he saw before was someone legit casting a spell). It is also a short term solution (30min @CL3) that sacrifices their horses.

in terms of mechanics, my interpretation of the rules is that it is legal, and any limitations are based on the mount's statistics (for size changes and the like).

I'm trying to build some tension in the game, is everyone feeling tense? :-p

Thatd be what I was waiting for. Didn't want to post before Annoush could report.

I've been trying to single out each of the other players. I'll get to you Heilan I promise.

No worries. You know that if this weather is magical i could end the spell with Iron Heart Surge right? :P Very much kidding, that kind of abuse of the rules is too cheesy for me
