    (IC) Against the Giants PBP Group 1

    Laerthar's stony face was hard to read, but Bible thought that he seemed honestly regretful when he said, ::I cannot make an such assurances. The alliance of giants travels up the Ordning; though perhaps the Clouds have abandoned us. And right they should. As you say, this venture is pointless...

    Not sure where the rule is, but I'm pretty sure that Inspiration resets on a Long Rest. So a human would only have one to give if they get another one during the day. I'm willing to be argued out of that ruling, I guess, but it's how I've been playing it.

    The only flaw I see to your plan, and your map, is that the Giants keep a line of torches all along the road (on the right-hand, or up on the map) and that they can see from the watchtowers anything directly to the right (and a little way up and down). It's true that where you have drawn the...

    Oh, one more: 4) It's autumn and relatively north-ish, so I'm gonna say that sundown is between 6 & 7pm, though the shadows get deep between 5 & 6pm. It's 2pm-ish, so you have about 4 hours before it gets pretty dark in the shade of the peaks. (Though it is a dim day at the best of times)

    I have a few things to say: 1) PwoT won't stop you from being spotted from the air. 2) The sun at dusk is behind the western spire (on the left of the map), which will make the gatehouse in its shadow, but not 'sun in the guards' eyes'. 3) Kahru expects that about an hour after dusk is when...

    Spoilers The Pitt on Max

    Show started great, but it's honestly been getting better and better as it goes. Really great.

    Which, to me, means that it would follow the normal rules on encumbrance. Which probably means you'd want to cast Fly on the strongest characters, if they're going to try to carry someone. The winds will be a hazard as well. You'll probably do fine, but it's going to be tricky. EDIT: Looking...

    @Tonguez I haven't mentioned Kahru lately. I've assumed that he is hanging around the Crag in hawk-form, avoiding the Frost Hawk and generally hunkering down, observing through both hawk-eyes and telepathing link. I'm aware that Vadasz is in or around the southern spire. Would you like me to...

    At first, there was no hiding from the Roc-Rider. The group were forced to pretend to flee southward for over an hour, before they were able to lose her at the site of a small, long-ago avalanche. They used the rocks to hide from her, and then circled northward while she swooped back and forth...

    Utharn scanned the sky once more, clearly looking out for the Roc-Rider. He said, ::I must return soon; there may not be time for a psychic connection to be made. But I will try to answer your questions quickly: The Frost Giant Mirgvard is an emissary of Jarl Grugnur. He demands that we send...

    Utharn stood still for a moment. Still enough that he could have been a statue. But then his head shifted to one side, showing that he'd been thinking. He answered Donnell, ::Yes, I think that I will, though it make me a traitor. I know that you excel at carnage, so I ask that you stay out of...

    D&D General Why Mike Mearls left D&D, an interview by Ben Riggs.

    Interestingly (to me, anyhow) - I would NEVER have considered allowing anyone to mix 1e & 2e stuff (Though I guess we did it a - little - in someone else's campaign with Oriental Adventures), NOR would I have condoned using 3.0 stuff once 3.5 was out. But I am happily and liberally mixing 2014...

    When they were far enough away from the gates that the winds blew the sound of their voices away to the east and the road wound southward, with rocky outcroppings blocking the guard's view, Utharn turned his large gray head to the sky, scanning first the clouds, then the surrounding flats. When...

    ::Yes, yes - it is unfortunate. But you must leave.:: Utharn said, with a hint of desperation in his gravelly voice. ::If you will allow, I will escort you back the way you came and offer my Thane's regrets.:: As he said this, with his back to the wall, he made a gesture in front of himself...

    Sure, your first hour of each day you have Comprehend Languages going, but remind me when you have a specific object that you're reviewing with Identify.

    He'll come out and be within 20 feet of you. You can message him if you like. Shouldn't be too obvious to the guard.

    The Stone Giant who had remained silent on the second tower began to laugh at Doc's threats, but was quickly rebuked by Utharn. Kahru could see that the hill giant did not think that it was funny, as he clutched a rock with white-knuckles and stepped further away from the gates, nearly backing...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Sure enough, Sherlen Miller had left the order on her desk, with the duke's seal broken. It read in a hastily scrawled hand: Constable, You are hereby ordered to seal all gates and treble their guard. Regular patrols of no less than six must patrol each street, paying most attention to Hill...

    Assault on Dragonspear (5e PBP) IC

    Morgan's Eye saw the messenger enter the Constable's Office (which also served as the town's jail). Soon after, the constable, Sherlen Miller, came out with a grim expression on her face, followed by a member of the militia, who began to ring a hand-bell that was soon repeated throughout the...
