Deuce Traveler's Campy Ptolus Adventure (Palace of the Silver Princess)

[Erekose13]

Sorry for the slow posting lately, been a difficult long weekend. Should be good to keep posting from here on in. Though I do tend to skip posting on weekends and spend all my free time with my family.

 

[Deuce Traveler]

No problem. Welcome back.

 

[Deuce Traveler]

If no one is up for visiting the tavern, we can move this along and send you guys to the palace gates.

Renard ordered a beer. He'd like to find someone to ask a few questions regarding the keep and how the previous adventurers died. Reconnaissance, and all that.

 

[Erekose13]

Glad we didn't pass up on the bar that's some interesting clues right there.

 

[TheMagician]

Ya know, Renard makes a very good point- I don't even know what Samuel's stereotype is.

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Oh... I took him as bumbling, yet still effective. The Inspector Clouseau of the sorcery scene.

 

[TheMagician]

Hmm. That's not what I had in mind (he comes of as bumbling? Whoops!) I actually got the inspiration for his personality from the hares from the Redwall series, if anyone is familiar with them. But it's been a long time since I read any of them. I guess it shows.

Inspector Clouseau, huh? Not a bad idea...

 

[Deuce Traveler]

Sorry. You mentioned he gets his men into jams all the time, but then finds a way to get them all out safely. So I made the assumption you were going for a bungler who manages to stumble into success each time.

 

[TheMagician]

No need to be sorry! When I made Samuel, I sort of envisioned him as the kind of officer who can't leave this or that unexplored, or this person unrescued (if that's a word). So, yeah, he gets into jams, but on purpose. Which might be worse, if you pause to think about it...

Anyways, this is my first PbP game, and I don't play tabletop games with people remotely interested in roleplaying. So, thanks for your input! This is a new experience for me, so I appreciate comments.

Oh, and speaking of the captian, did his Spellcraft check turn up anything of interest?
