The woman turned and took the blast of fire on her left shoulder, grunting in pain but as yet showing no sign of going down. Wincing, she yelled back towards the street in the front "Side door! They're trying to escape out the side door!" As she turned, two pairs of iron manacles attached to...

As Toby and Kyrrie entered the alley, they got a better look at the barricade. It stood about 10 feet to the side of the door, was about 10 feet high, and neatly filled the width of they alley, nearly 15 feet. It was well-constructed of wood, but it obviously hadn't been made in the short time...

Yes. The enemies use their average init, and anybody who bears then can act. Then we'll alternate between enemies and PCs.

Doesn't matter to me. Use whatever you want.

It's a mastiff. Pretty sure it's medium, and if I'm mistaken... it was my mistake. So go ahead.

Ah... Apparently I should have checked the IC thread first. My apologies. But that was as far as he made it, for there was a guard watching the door. She was a human, who grinned wickedly showing a broken front tooth. She wore leather armor and carried a sap. On her right arm was a red band...

Oh, but they're trying to bash it in, remember. It doesn't matter much which way it's intended to open.

Front doors opening to the outside is standard, but I guess I don't know how modern that is... Sure, let's go with towards the outside. EtA: Oh, but they're trying to break it in, so it doesn't matter so much which way it's supposed to open.

Kincaid saw no tell or any sign she was attempting to deceive the group. She seemed honest, if nervous. I'm actually not sure what made you doubt her? If it's that you think she was leaving things out before, that's really just me trying to avoid wall-o-text/giving PCs chances to respond and...

"Well," said Torrent, "I do have a plan for heading towards the Lyceum without pursuit. The way things piled up here was somewhat unanticipated, so I wasn't as entirely prepared for the getting out part because I didn't expect it to be difficult." She shrugged sheepishly, looking apologetic...

While Seaquen is within Dassen's borders, it's a semi-independent city that doesn't pay taxes to the crown. That's why I didn't count it when I said the party wasn't likely to be heading into Dassen any time soon.

"Sewers?" said Torrent, "Gate Pass has them, of course, but I can't say I know anything about them. I wouldn't know how to get in, and more importantly, I wouldn't know how to get out. This area has all kinds of rocky caverns... I think it's as likely they drain down into the earth rather than...

3E - Swift Action 4E - Minor Action 5E - Bonus Action I have no idea why they rename this concept between editions, but they're basically the same. Slight differences in the exact mechanics, but more similar to each other than the three editions' definition of "saving throw," for example...

Torrent laughed. "Well," she said, I'm sure you'll have cause to put those skills to the test before long." She patted a large leather messenger bag she wore on her hip, which had both a waist strap and one over her shoulder. It rustled softly.

Torrent sighed and shook her head. "I hope he wasn't detained too badly," she said, "that could be dangerous for him. And the rest of us. Well, everyone keep half an eye on that door, please." She moved to the table and poured herself a small drink. "Perhaps best not to overindulge... "As for...

Certainly. I just didn't want to move the action forward until all were introduced. But I will, shortly. Andocles can always join a conversation in progress--that requires no finagling.

3SpdDragster Did you see that the IC thread was started?

? Did you look at the description of the table? "When you create your character, you receive equipment based on a combination of your class and background. Alternatively, you can start with a number of gold pieces based on your class and spend them on items from the list in this chapter."

Nothing immediately relevant. The characters aren't likely to travel there for a good while.

8 + 5 + (2x2) = 17. Wait, where'd I get 18? Knowledge (Religion) is an Int skill in 3.5, too. All the Knowledge skills are. I considered regional/national languages, but the book ones are simpler and easier to use (and don't require changing the rules as listed). Orc and Elvish would be the...
