Bjorn saw the overturned kayak ahead and frowned. Not good. He plunged his paddle deep into the water and tried to steer their way towards it, and out of the swift current. "Hold on!" he shouted over the roar of the river, not knowing if he was addressing his companions or Loklafd. Bjorn...

OK, I'm now thinking the acrobatic/athletics checks to move doesn't help with resolving the swift currents. I assume we need to "attack" it with our paddles instead? Sorry for the confusion Fitz - fun encounter, just trying to get the mechanics right.

Got it. I assume we can use our action to Dash through the next Hazard in front of us? Can post that later today. EDIT: I thought the Dash that Vlad just did already resolved the first Hazard #4 already. Also, is the body of Loklafd next to the overturned kayak? Approximately which grid space...

TEAM LAKE - Bjorn Bjorn saw the other kayak rapidly approaching just as Bill pointed with his nose to a small whirlpool he could use to their advantage. He quickly flipped his paddle to the opposite side of the oncoming boat and plunged it into the whirlpool, jerking the boat sharply away from...

Deirdre strode forward quickly and (for her) relatively quietly. She then thrust her blessed blade deep into the large zombie. Dierdre somehow made her stealth roll with disadvantage (armor); attacked with advantage. Stealth check: 2D20.LOW(1) = [17, 11] = 11 Attack with guiding strike...

You should do an unboxing video of your shockedness. I’d click that.

Sounds good!

Love the scene of the zombie cooks. Nice and weird. For surprise, it now just gives you advantage on your initiative roll. Since that’s really not a thing in PbP, maybe just give advantage to attack for those that make their stealth roll? I know it’s highly unlikely that Deirdre will!

@TaranTheWanderer how visible is the kitchen door to the common room? Is it around the corner or in plain site? @Steve Gorak we might not want to conjure an illusionary fog cloud if everyone in the common room can see it - might panic them. Maybe wait until we are all inside to do it?

"Yes," answered Deirdre as Stratus approached. "I suggest we move into the kitchen quickly, with you and perhaps that dwarf leading the way, assuming he is with us. Followed by myself and Caer, then the rest. The last one inside shuts the door, and only then do we engage. Agreed?" Deirdre...

Deirdre nodded at Anson. In a more hushed tone she added, "There is some unpleasant business in the kitchen that needs to be taken care of. Will you join Caern and I? We need to be discreet about it." @Kobold Stew, they met briefly outside during the procession when Deirdre complemented him on...

Deirdre nodded at the robed man's words regarding the Beacon. She then heard Caer's voice in her tongue and turned to see him confronting the innkeeper. Trying to ignore the growing din of the humans, she joined Caer and the innkeeper at the bar where they were speaking in hushed tones...

Seeing the large rocks suddenly disappear, Bjorn worked his paddle along with Darius to avoid the shallows. OK, as noted above, forgot to roll Bjorn's acrobatics check. Also forgot that Guidance lasts for 1 minute (concentration) and now affects all rolls for the chosen skill for that...

Deirdre wracked her brain upon hearing the man in black robes speak of the Green Death. Ah, Kyuss, she thinks to herself. An obscure, yet abhorrent, god of undeath, rot, and decay. The Wormgod. She then turned to the robed man. "This Beacon - where is it?" Religion check: 1D20+2 = [13]+2 =...
