    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    Rowan's first reponse, after ducking the missiles, is to turn to Phoenix. "Are you alright? Did they hit you?" He jumps in front of her, just in case another round is on the way, and puts his arms around her. But nothing more happens, and he is ready to move on.

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    The courtyard, as noted earlier, seems empty, just a big space filled with random rocks and surrounded by a wall of rubble. By the wall, about 30' to the right of where you are, is a hole in the ground.

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    The three of you proceed into the cave. After about 20', you are surprised by a volley of darts. Phoenix and Rowan must each make a DC 12 reflex save. Rowan's save: 20. Rowan ducks and is unharmed.

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Michael hears nothing in the courtyard. The group walks around the ruins, seeing a wall of rubble with only the one opening.

    judge needed So, not long after the game I picked up from a DM who quit died out, another game I'm judging has gone DM-less. So I am, I hope, taking over Sinister Spire. I need a judge. The game has two strands, since two different groups of characters were recruited at different times. The...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    You start around the rubble, and find a break in the wall which forms a sort of gateway into a large open courtyard. Do you continue around the perimeter, per Michael's suggestion, or go inside?

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    Lookspring sees tracks of several different creatures. Some are clearly humanoids, both medium and small, but he can't tell what race. There's also at least one track of a more beastly creature, but that's as much as he can say. None of the tracks are fresh (the newest are probably a couple days...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    The kobolds have nothing of value, except coin -- altogether 27 GP, 14 SP, 12 CP. Their weapons (one with a heavy pick, the others just javelins and clubs) are quite ordinary, and their leather armour nothing spectacular. I'll assume you take the coins; are you interested in any of the other...

    EsSarch replies to your query, "We do not know what can cause the disease. But there can be no mistaking its occurrence. The first obvious sign will be boils all over your skin, if you are infected. Should that happen, we can negotiate healing you. There will still be time if a remedy is...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Sorry about the delay. I got so preoccupied -- preoccupied to the extent I can get preoccupied with LEW these days -- with figuring out the main thread that I didn't notice this one was waiting for a DM post. I'll try to do better in the future. Kobold 5 is now dead. The last remaining critter...

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    EsSarch speaks with a deep, emotionless tone. "I spoke to you of the disease that plagues our city. In its early stages its symptoms are physical, and it can still be cured. That is the purpose of these mushrooms. But in its advanced stages infected creatures are enslaved to sinister powers that...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    OK. I think I figured out what's happening in this combat. BigB's style of editing old posts as new actions come in confused me, because I wasn't reading things in the order I'm accustomed. But, if I've got this right, Pendrake's and Semabin's actions in #65-66 are incorporated into #64, so it's...

    Sinister Spire (Group 2)(Orsal Judging)

    Judge reporting You know, I completely forgot this thread was here. I already reported to the main thread that I had emailed BigB and, not getting a reply (it's been almost a week now), was prepared to assume command of the game. I do need some time to review before I can do anything, though...

    Sinister Spire(con't RBD)(Orsal Judging)

    Judge speaking I emailed BigB on Monday to ask if he had abandoned the game. Four days, no reply. So, as judge, I'm willing to take it over (unless you decide you'd rather wait longer). I will need to take at least a few days more to review before continuing. Is that OK?

    IVV1: The Forgotten Map [orsal judging]

    OK, it's official. You all agree to Scrate's offer without any negotiations. I checked the thread: IVV last awarded time XP in November, and jaker2003 withdrew in April. So, here are the final time XP awards: Babette: 4th level, 6 months, makes 1200 XP Oskar: 1st level, 5 months, makes 250 XP...

    Tavern - City of Orussus, The Red Dragon Inn '08

    Nurlan orders a dwarven ale. Eusebius' next comment attracts his attention. "Hmm.. it sounds like you've got quite a story you never talked about in Monemvassia"

    IVV1: The Forgotten Map [orsal judging]

    I'm going to assume everyone agrees with Karl unless someone explicitly posts otherwise. Oh, and welcome back jaker2003.

    I agree. Lots of PCs have used the job system, but I don't think any have started paying Joe for anything.

    From the Tavern thread: Many of us are around... but I'm not clear what it is you're asking the judges about.
