    I'll second it that this is great advice. I'll admit, that kind of stuff would bore me to tears as well, so I don't expect anything like this. I try my hardest to run my game on rule of cool alone. I would think that they were more into just a dungeon crawl style game, but every time I ask them...

    Thiera notices that Rhydius isn't looking in prime form and struggles to line up a shot at the foe currently harassing him. She calls a warning to Rhydius before she looses the arrow at his opponent. Fire bow at H4 into melee. Thiera AC: 15 (Touch: 13 Flat Footed: 12) HP: 11/11 CMB: +1 CMD...

    Thanks for the outpouring of advice. I'll address a couple of specific points now. Johnny3D3D: I wish I could just get my players to decide to go to a shop. If I can convince them to decide to do that kind of stuff, then that's a pretty good idea to shake things up. DaveMage: They do have a...

    Missed that bit. Can I redirect the attack or did I just burn a round? I'm fine with either decision. If I can redirect the attack, I'll attack the guy on G7. If not, I shoot into empty space at I6. Either way, I take the step back.

    I have talked to them, and they like how the game is working, and like I said, I don't mind railroading them if that's what they want. It's just to the point where I'm getting so little to work with that it's really taxing my ability to prepare for our sessions because I don't have anything...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera recoils from her attacker and rapidly brings an arrow to bear on him. 5 foot step to K4, fire bow at I6 Thiera AC: 15 (Touch: 13 Flat Footed: 12) HP: 11/11 CMB: +1 CMD: 14 Fort: +3 Ref: +5 Will: +1 Speed: 30' Perception: +5 Initiative: +3 Right Hand: Bowstring and Arrow Left...

    I'd like some advice, if the community doesn't mind sharing their opinions (never a concern on the internet, right?). I have a weekly game that's been running since January. The players know what's going on in the story, actually remember the names of NPCs (a first in any of my games), and seem...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera sees the attack on Cavernous Hode and her resolve is now fully steeled. She turns toward the other gangplank and fires an arrow at one of brigands crossing toward Tasanto, hoping to thin out the crowd on that side of the action. She coolly watches her shot strike true and begins plotting...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Noticing that she has more time than she previously believed, Thiera quickly takes advantage of the extra time to send another arrow toward her previous target. Fire bow at E4 Thiera AC: 15 (Touch: 13 Flat Footed: 12) HP: 11/11 CMB: +1 CMD: 14 Fort: +3 Ref: +5 Will: +1 Speed: 30'...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Seeing the arrow strike Sana, Thiera clears her head of any remaining uncertainties and draws her bow, takes aim at one of the prospective boarders, and looses her arrow. As soon as the arrow whistles through the foggy sea air she steps back toward the middle of the deck while saying, "Rhydius...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera glances over at Sana and twists her lips into a wry grin that does nothing to mask her obvious nausea. "Aye, and to you as well. Hopefully between the three of us we can feather enough of them to make the eventual melee trivial. Though I must admit that this is the first time I have...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    When the cry goes up Thiera quickly spots the shapes of the incoming ships' masts and rigging from her starboard watch position. She calmly loosens her longsword in its scabbard, checks the prevailing wind one more time, pulls her longbow off her back and unwraps the cloth she placed around the...

    "Gods above I do not want to see him squeezed into a bodice." Thiera mutters to herself. Speaking up so the others can clearly hear her she says, "I should probably be going myself as I need to gather the rest of my equipment from my apartment. I look forward to working with you and will see you...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    "What sort of person plans an attack against those he is planning on working with?" Thiera thinks while being forced to reassess the dwarf upon seeing that he had a plan, and a decent one at that, if clumsily executed. She then gives her comrades a once-over, mulling over the group's combat...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera ensures that she is out of the way and settles in to watch Sana square off against the dwarf. She has obviously decided that it is not worth her time to explain trousers and skirts to Cavernous Hode and, rankled by his apparently literal take on everything, silently cheers on her...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera snorts at Rhydius's statement while eying the dwarf skeptically. "I'm sure my perspective is different from yours, as I would prefer my bodice remain intact." She turns to the dwarf. "Ah, Mr. Hode...is that what I should call you? Is Cavernous a title or your given name, or must the...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera ponders the question for a moment, weighing how much she wants to try to avoid her usual tight-lipped nature. "I grew weary of the games...the incessant subterfuge and maneuvering. I'm sure you can tell by now that society is not a current I traverse effectively. Add to that the fact...

    "That is true, it's just that I know nothing about my parentage save that my mother must have been somewhat...loose, shall we say? I do know that she gave me a half brother from her womb who has the blood of a celestial in his veins. We don't get along so well..." she trails off, gazing out the...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera watches Rhydius's blundered attack, but realizes that she has probably used up her allotment of criticism for the day and refrains from comment. Returning her attention to Sana she replies, "Fascinating. It's been some time since the days of my schooling and it's not often in this age one...

    [LPF] Guard Duty

    Thiera hesitates a moment before reaching out and clasping Sana's hand. "Thanks. I'm called Thiera. The bit with the magic was impressive, even if the strike itself was off. That, as well as your..." she looks over Sana with an appraising eye, "unique...look could prove to potentially be...
