Yeah, let's move it. Nah, hopefully we can find a priestly babysitter at the temple. I say we move forward. We gotta rendezvous with the others. I say we head to the potion shop (I assume that it shouldn't be hard to discern that they're there? We were outside while they were on the rooftops...

IME Red Robin went to absolute crap in the 'oughts and never recovered. In the 90's it was awesome. But at least it knows what it is and doesn't have delusions that it's some kind of fancy place, like some of its contemporaries.

Team Caves: Chief Urbone's Hut Urbone the Magnificent waved his gnarled staff, made from the desiccated leg of some giant insect, and his words shifted to sound as if it were a bold voice speaking the common tongue, with only a slight echo of the chirps of the kobold dialect of draconic. "A...

Do most chippie shops use peeled potatoes? I assume that it's shop-dependent, or regional, but it could also be a "modern" vs "olden-days" thing.

I'm not sure if I've been unclear, but it's not a tower - the tower was a small structure outside overlooking the river (and bridge). This is a dungeon under the mountain. It's not particularly large (nor is the mountain), but that's what it is. Otherwise, your plan sounds great!

Most fish and chip shops, IME, serve what I think the OP describes as "homestyle" (the picture throws it off, it's strange-looking), but I'm sure there are exceptions (and I haven't had fish and chips in the UK in something like 15 years, so I may be wrong about the kind that you might be...

Sure. I think Stratus will just grab the two foot case with the key in it and tuck it in his sack (with the wooden side against anything metal, in case they bang together like before!)

Team Infiltrate A couple of notes: If you interact with any NPCs from here on out, I'm going to ask for CHA Deception checks. IF it's just basic innocuous interactions, the DC will be 12. Anything more complicated, personal, or logistical (like asking questions about the place) the DC will get...

Yes. It's a glass case? And I assume breaking it would be noisy? How big is it? Can stratus just take the whole case to find Anson, or someone who can open it more quietly? Come to think on it - is there a nearby zombie that looks like they could be the shopkeeper with keys? Do I need to roll...

Team Infiltrate The oxen were able to navigate the low-rise, wide-stepped stairs, and the cultists helped to get the wagon wheels into the staircase's grooves. With the chain used to keep the wagon from running into the oxen's rears, the wagon was driven downstairs into a large room, where two...

Ideally, I would think something that threads the needle for just enough of both to make for an entertaining film. Maybe it's that this one did so much "good science" that it made the "magic" parts even less believable by comparison? Sure, but bad fantasy also doesn't follow the rule of cool...

Stratus, unable to get the girl to come out, but satisfied for now that she was quiet, picked up the Pendent of Correllon, and turned his attention toward the ring, and getting it out of its case. I'm not sure what the best method to get it out is.

Wrong Thread. I have no idea how that could have happened, but I guess mistakes are easy enough to make.

The anniversary was poorly celebrated, I agree. I think everyone was too busy trying to get the '24 Core done, or tying desperately to hang on to their jobs, or both. Yeah, I think that the MM was the only context for the "continuation"-line. It was an excuse, sure, when they discovered that...

Hmm... my guess might be over, but I'm not sure. IF it's not over 10M it's very possibly close. Though I DID intend my guess to include digital sales, which is another thing that BookScan leaves out. BookScan could easily reflect less than 10% of total sales. It's mostly reported to by Book...

I'm sure that part of my problem with the whole thing is that I had seen interviews with Nolan, and reviews of how great it was, and all of that, before I saw it. And I was already inclined to be critical of Nolan (I like him, but I'm often inclined to be critical of directors that I like)...

Well, I agree with you. I didn't think that part worked very well either, which certainly influenced my feelings on the other parts.
