Candlekeep Mysteries (OOC Chat)

Almost -- Hermit gives you a Herbalism kit, and Charlatan gives you a disguise kit (and maybe others too).

Right as I thought I'd get all my games rolling along again at a decent pace (decent for PBP at any rate), I got sick. Probably Covid, though I didn't manage to get tested (I didn't have a car or access to a home test) I just stayed home for the isolation period. In spite of being home, I wasn't up to much in the way of thinking. At any rate, I'll try to keep things rolling along now. Thanks for playing!

I edited my post to add more about Hawthorne's joke. @Kobold Stew - if you think Crock Jon would have gotten the joke (say, by having been familiar with the puppet show or its knock-offs) then you can reroll your fear save.

Nah -- boxers don't get allegory. That fist coming towards your face? That's a symbol, of a fist coming towards your face.

Happy to play frightened, and if that means letting him go, that's fine.

You don't have to let it go, but if it gets away, you can't chase. However, you might be covering your face and yelling "AH! Knock this thing out quick!" (or something like that!)

Hey Folks,

I hope this is just a temporary hiatus. I was enjoying this game.

Me too. It was not my intention to fall so far behind in my games. Really, it's not a lack of time that's slowed me down, it's more a dip in morale. (Not for the game, just generally). I had a bit of a rough January. I was sick twice, the second was covid. The first thing was worse, but only lasted three or four days, while the covid was harder to shake. I was sick for nine days, and I still (this was a few weeks ago) have low-energy and a regular headache. My employee (who gave it to me) was sick for fifteen days. Everyone else I know (my wife and kids, and my other employee) managed to avoid it, thankfully.

So, I've just been trying to work up the morale to get going again. I'll do what I can to get things going again. Thanks for being patient with me. I hope you're all still in. I know I've let the pacing drop, which is always tough enough in PBP. We had a really good start, so I hope we can bring this one all the way.

Stay safe & health comes first.
I’ll definitely be here once you’re ready.
Cheers,

I'm starting to get my groove back for running PBP. (Finally updating my other game(s). I'd like to get this one moving again too. Can I get a show of hands as to who's still with me? I understand if you've given up on me, but I hope you'll join me to finish this one off. It was never a long adventure, and I know that I made in longer by extending the journey to get where we are. (I like journeys!)

You all still available?
