Rikka continued to dance around the strange winged beast. The shadows swirling around her made it hard for the creature to strike back, but it heavy armor made it hard for her to land a solid blow... Use 1 ki point (3rd, of 4 available) for Patient Defense (Bonus action Dodge, opponent...

I only have a basic cellphone (it was the most basic model available 5 years ago)- even that has a camera, though I never use it. I would have been happy to have only a landline, but when work and home are fifty miles apart, a more flexible communication rig is needed. In general I am a bit of...

For Tasha, having a smartphone is less about how useful it will be in dealing with whatever predicaments we end up with and more about utility in her 'normal' life. She is definitely the type of person to look up random stuff that other people mention, and to use social media (within parental...

Missed the minimum wealth thing, will reconfigure. Will also add names. Headed over to work in the RG mines now.

Niche-wise, Tasha is going to be developing into (more of a) "people person" as her abilities grow- 2nd level will be Charismatic, to start. She may not understand WHY this is happening (She certainly won't understand the Charm- males talent, or like it vey much, but there it is...) At this...

WE WANT JUNO eta: (which is not to say that we don't necessarily want Owen too- 'cause boys...) And well, one of our brawler/jocks IS a werewolf, and except for Janice we're all 'unarmed' and likely to stay that way for a while...

Cool. I'll try to finalize equipment tonight. Not a lot to worry about with weapons, armor, or vehicles. I'd guess the school cafeteria prices are pretty reasonable. Will have to watch the wallet with all these budding delinquents around though... ;)

So, regarding equipment (in a purely hypothetical sense, of course): If someone were to want a smartphone, how would I put that together? I don't think a regular cell phone would cut it, as a base. Would it be better to start with the PDA (assuming full keypad and internet access), just labeled...

Rikka darted forth out of cover again, once more moving with that startling speed. She stopped next to the more-injured of the two winged creatures and lashed out with her silvered blade, but her swings glanced off the creature's heavy armor. Shadows swirled around her form even as she stood...

Shadows swirled around Rikka as she began to move- she was FAST, and the swirling cloak of darkness made it hard to follow her sinuous movements. In the space of heartbeats she was out of her cover and beside the two winged creatures- she lashed out with her silver-bladed sword, cutting deeply...

Mina turned briefly to Shen. "There is a chair outside, and four of our men. See if you can drag him out there and get him bundled away. Our leader is probably on his way, but he didn't want this one examined too closely. I'll see if I can distract her..." With that, Mina stepped away and to...

Rikka's fingers flickered, first pointing at the general area, then two fingers pointed downward and switching like a walking biped, then five fingers spread, folding down to one (maybe that meant '6', or a sign for the other five to wait, while she scouted alone?)- it was a very rudimentary...

Okay, IC post is up. As noted over there, I may have overstepped a bit (particularly on timing)- let me know if I need to change anything.

>(TIME= Now; Place= Temple of Pelor) As most of the group was standing in front to the half-orc at the desk, awaiting a response to their (rather unusual) introduction, another voice rang out behind them. A sharp voice, not quite shrill, and not terribly loud- but pitched to carry well in the...

Just a quick note here- I'm about to do an IC post, so please hold off until it comes in; I'm trying to slot in right behind what is going on. Either it works, or we get killed. ;)

Any idea of what the creatures are, or do I have to close in a bit first? (BAsed on Rikka's initial Perception roll, a critical success of 29) Also, are 'they' all clustered near the initial 'X' on the map, or more spread out? Mostly asking as intent is 'move and hide', and I don't want to move...

Various free-form thoughts on a variety of stuff (s-blocked for your sanity) 1. Given her budding telepathy and California upbringing, Tasha has a little bit of SJW (Social Justice Warrior, but in a good way, and I'll keep it low key) in her mix, so her first thought towards an all-female...

Oh no- science... *raises hand* "Is this going to be on the test, this kind of science?" ;)

I was thinking of something along the lines of the quote from Aliens: "Maybe they don't show up on infra-red at all", in that certain shadowy evil things are (somehow) resistant to clear images being taken, a sort-of digital version of the way most humans edit ought things their minds can't...
