OK, so my plan was to allow some more "get-to-know-you" time on the ship before you touch down in Stormreach.
If you all are pretty much satisfied with how things are at this time, then I will advance the scene.
One question I have for the group -- I was thinking of recruiting an alternate. H4H is not posting on the forums until they fix the subscriptions, and there is no time frame (that I've seen) for the EN2 forums to go online. So, basically, you guys need a meat shield of some sort if he is not going to be participating, and Stormreach is a logical place to add someone (here's a preview: you're headed into the jungle) that doesn't dress in loincloths and swing from vines. (Although that would be interesting)
Also, you've earned some XP! 686 xp (900 xp for Voadam) for all that participated in the combat. No treasure, as air elementals aren't known to carry anything around.

Either way...I'm good with more roleplaying as it comes up, or with advancing the adventure. I just go with the flow.

I'm all for recruiting a meatshield. Aeranduil is fairly useless in melee, and it will pay off greatly to have someone between him and the giants!

I'll post a recruitment thread for a meat shield for for team black. If H4H comes back/EN 2 goes live, he can pick back up with Jaxel, as I don't plan to kill him off(because then I can make the giants more difficult. ).

Yeah, Sanne's definitely a melee type, but she's no meatshield.
It is really hard to be a meatshield vrs giants, because a couple of hits seem to "tenderize" the shield.

In the recruitment of a meatshield, there are three candidates, so I wanted to know if you (the party) has any preference.
One would be a dwarven knight/dwarven defender, another would be a half-giant fighter, while the last would be a warforged fighter.
Obviously, the last one would be hard for this group to heal.
Please let me know of any preference or comments, as I'd like to pick the shield of meat in the coming days, so that we can get them situated before we head into the interior of the continent.
I'd like to see the builds (or at least partial builds) before I weigh in. They way I see it, is we need the one that is the hardest to hurt...whether that means high AC, high hit points, or both, I don't know. We seem pretty well covered for damage output though, so my take is that we need someone that can take a hit better than a PC that can deliver one.
My initial thought is that the dwarf probably fits that role best.
