[sblock=Expectations and Rules Recap]

EXPECTATIONS AND RULES:

Keep your Player Info Up to Date: Include mini stat blocks in your posts. Mini-stat blocks allow you to keep track of your own healing surges, power usages, acquired items, etc... without having to ask the DM all the time. It's not the end of the world if you forget, but please be sure to include it when you are posting an action block. It also make it easier for me to check basic stats.

Example mini-stats:
[sblock=ministats]
Triggers: Fox's Cunning Trigger - Immediate Reaction to the First Enemy that attacks me in melee
Status: Bloodied
Init: +5 Speed: 5 Perception:22 Insight: 20
AC: 21 F/R/W:17/18/22
HP: 30/61 Surges: 4/8 Surge Value: 15 AP: 1
Languages: Allarian, Imperia, Draconic
Str:8 Dex:14 Wis:14 Con:14 Int:10 Cha:22

Powers:
At Will - Jinx Shot, Cutting Words
Encounter - Second Wind, Fox's Cunning, Twin Strike, Grappling Spirits, Hunter's Quarry, Majestic Word (0/2), Words of Friendship, Chord of Dissonance, Rhyme of the Blood-Seeking Blade, Virtue of Prescience
Daily - Arrow of Ill Omen, Arrow of Warning, Bracers of Archery, Inevitable Shot, Songbow of Vanishment, Warding Arrow

Full Character Sheet
[/sblock]

Passive checks: I will use Perception and Insight and put information in private sblocks for certain players. If you are not one of the intended characters, please do not read these spoilers. The character, however, is welcome to, in character, reveal the contents of the spoiler to the others in game, remember that talking is a free action (but keep in short)

Combat:

Players roll initiative individually, bad guys roll one initiative roll
Players with higher init than bad guys go first then all the bad guys go
Then all the players go. From this point, we alternate players vs bad guys
Good guy turns happen in first post - first acted order.
Illegal post-overs will be resolved in that round
Legal post-overs stand even if each didn't know the other was posting (Please use Go Advanced or Preview Post to avoid this)

*I like KD's idea that players knocked unconscious will have some impact on their turn. Anyone knocked unconscious effectively goes first in the round (meaning rolling death saves, ect). Which means even if healed, you will be missing a round of action.

DM Posts during combat will include:

1. Status of all players, monsters, NPCs etc... indicating Name, Location, HP/MaxHP, State, Healing Surges Left, Action Points left (i.e.:: Arkavas I6 -1/41 Dying HS 0 AP 1).

2. Map in the form of a grid with coordinates
**I'll be using Google Maps, so if you don't have an account, get one. They are free**
Google maps allows everyone to adjust their location on their turn and the power effects. If you have a power that moves, shifts of pushes, make sure you document all those effects in your post. I do not want to have people or monsters magically change without explanations.

3. Enemy Mini Stat Blocks including: Damage taken, bloodied status, aura, effects, status effects and MBA. I like the format where monster defenses are revealed after you target/hit them, so we'll try that first. If you provoke an AoO or a listed power during your turn you can roll the result (it will make less work for the DM and give you a rapid response)

Time: I will try to give players 48 hours to post, at the end of which time I reserve the right to RP the player's character on his behalf. I will use the most appropriate actions and At-Will powers only. I understand life happens and gaming shouldn't be anyone's only priority. Just understand that in the interest of everyone's enjoyment, your character will be moved forward to be in everyone's best interest if time lags too much.

Exceptions: If you will be out for a long time and unable to post, please let the party know and assign responsibility to either myself or another, willing player for RPing your character, or I can write in a scenario that takes you out of the picture until your return (The former is preferred).

Treasure: Keep a wish list on your character sheet up to date with what you would like, and I’ll try to accommodate within reason. Items will be given relative to player level. Parcel Gold/Items will be evenly divided at the end.

I will ask stupid questions about parcel distribution. It doesn't make sense at times, so I will have to get some clarification...


Die Rolling: Roll your dice on Invisible Castle. If invisible castle is down, you can also use the Enworld Dice roller (but please select the SMALLER results in your profile) In IC, highlight the die roll in your post and use the 'Insert Link' button to post a link to your die rolls.

Out of Character Content: Post out of character content (i.e.: complaints, tactics, mechanics, etc...) in a spoiler with the letters 'OOC' in the title or the OOC tag. I prefer as much discussion and conversation to occur in character with possible questions to the DM in ooc format.
[/sblock]

The remainder of the day proves active for the adventurers as they sort the newly acquired loot. Bed comes late for most of the group as they train, study and prepare for the following day. As the adventurers arise, most find themselves rubbing sore muscles and aching bruises from the fight with the shadow troll and his gnoll allies. (Of course, some of less living cease their silent rest and strap the familiar armor to their undead body.) Each makes their way down to the common room of the Tower's Shard for first meal.

In turn, each adventurer is greeted by a herald from the Kingdom of Karrnath. He looks like he has been up the whole night, either running errands or waiting here in the

"Good morn, kind sirs and madams. I am Reginald, House of Milthane. I am to ensure you have a good breakfast and ask that you gather here for Ambassador Milthane, who will be arriving shortly."


GM: Starting the continuation adventure thread here. Everyone please check in (make a post) when you are ready (meaning leveled up) to proceed. If I owe you treasure, I will deposit it to you during the adventure.

Assassination 2
Rohna,
Goliath Fighter/Warlord 10
88/88 HP (0THP)
Resist All 1

Rohna steps out of the Shard, all cleaned and polished stretching her armored arms out behind her. "Wow I feel very much like I was knocked off a 30' tower into wet garbage." She makes a couple of swinging arm twists to limber up before the others get outside. She steps up to the herald while they are alone. "So did the ambassador get a chance to speak with House Vadalis yet?" Her customary Mordenkrad is no longer on her person, in its place is an ornate glaive with runes similar to those that ringed the massive hammer. She also sports a customized horned helm and wickedly spurred boots, all matched perfectly to her armor.

KarinsDad

Adventurer
OOC: [Mention=10]FourMonos[/Mention], I'm almost finished leveling up. You might want to update the Chael's level to 10 in your initial post above. Not sure about the other PCs.
 


Neurotic

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
OOC: I will spend 10 out of 12 RP to get 4000 needed for 10th level. Still didn't level up as I was caught up in some overtime work. I will endeavor to finish it ASAP.

EDIT: almost ready...need to write Blade barrier and Reverent mettle into power descriptions, but I'm out of time. Still need to write down exact money exchange, but again, total is correct...
