    Tall's Portal Under the Starts [DCC] - OOC- Closed

    I read this as the role played equivalent of “That’s dangerous, what should we do.” No one has volunteered a PC to be a trap “finder”. So I’m a bit stuck on how to move things forward.

    Do you mean this post? I did not read that as you had gone into the room. If you have then stuff happens.

    D&D 5E (2014) Storm King's Thunder

    Fistan Fistan watched helplessly as the dragons' breath nearly killed everyone near it. He was dimly aware of the consequences of what the giant was doing but watched with some detachment. He recovered quickly enough once he's teleported to - somewhere - and quickly set about helping those...

    Tall's Portal Under the Starts [DCC] - OOC- Closed

    I appreciate that all the PbP games (at least the ones I play in or follow) seem really slow at the moment but no one has posted here in nearly three weeks. Do you still want to play this through or should we shut it down?

    Hmm... Something made me think that you had taken a short rest, but looking back there is no mention of it. I am happy for you to have taken one while in the town.

    D&D 5E (2014) [Full] Tall's PotA Campiagn

    With KahlessNestor back from vacation (I hope you had a good time) should we proceed? I think that Charwomangene is still AFK, but I will drag her along until a suitable interlude allows.

    Dungeons and Dragons (5th Edition): How to Build a Wizard – A Combat Guide

    A wizard guide that doesn't even mention concentration? Most of the most powerful wizard spells require concentration and without taking that into account it is easy to end up with a spell list that is too limited by this mechanic. You talk about the spell book evolving but make no mention of...

    [IC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Book 2)

    ”We certainly need a rest before we’ll be much use to anyone. says Perin. ”But then we’ll need to get more information before we can make any plans. We’ve at least rescued the villagers and they can report back what we do know.”

    Let's Talk About THAC0

    I wonder how much of the bad rap comes from the varying AC of the edition - flat footed; surprised; attacks from the rear - rather than THAC0 being complicated. People only remember AC being more complicated and it’s easier to blame one thing.

    Let's Talk About THAC0

    Possibly, it seems to vary by region. When I was in South Africa we said THAK-OH; when I moved to the UK people (who were old enough) said TAK-OH; but at university I knew a guy from elsewhere in the UK who said THAYK-OH.

    [IC] JM's A Bit of Trouble (Book 2)

    Perin watched as the lizardman was tied to a tree. Flashbacks of his own mistreatment came to him. He stands rooted to the spot as conflicting emotions race though his head. As Everett conjures flames, apparently to execute the lizardman, Perin comes to a resolution. "Enough! If we are to...

    Saarthax rushes forward to defend his half fling ally as U'Tempei and Orin send projectiles that skitter through the mass of plant without hitting anything. @Justincase It will attack on its turn so go ahead and roll your attacks. Don't forget about your retainers. I thought you guys had...

    Eowyn lead the ratcatchers through the forest, closer to the old castle. Focused on choosing a route she almost missed the change in the forrest - its too quiet, and smells wrong... Suddenly a huge patch of forest rears up in front of you. Not a patch of forest - some kind of plant...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Full] Tall's PotA Campiagn

    So I've posted in IC, I was hoping to get it done before Friday so KahlessNestor could get another round in before going on Vacation. CharwomanGene seems to be AFK longterm, she hasn't posted in two weeks anywhere, so I've thrown her action in. If you want her to do anything other the basic...

    Nariah switches her curse to one of the other reavers then blasts him with eldritch energy, nearly killing the pirate. The reaver in the corner yells, "Get help!" as she closes in on Gormok taking a swing, the wicked blade cutting deep into the barbarian. The other reaver in the room, heads...
