    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs (OOC)

    I want people to try and post a couple of steps within their initative order. That way, honestly, I don't get confused. :D Posting early is fine but I'd suggest posting like within two or three steps of yer own initative. Just for my sake. Also -- I very much enjoy how this is going so far and...

    A Game of Thrones - Defenders of the Vale

    Rhin Snow, the yard "It is weeks yet until your father returns home, yes?" Rhin lets his blade be brushed aside by the lordling's own, and leans into the momentum to snap it back up and twirl the slender thing into his sheath. It is not so different, the longsword and dagger, from my own...

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs

    The Big Sink, corridor to cellblock #1 Iannja quickly murmurs a few words of power, and a small, white burst of luminesence begins from between her fingertips. With a small grunt of exertion she quickly pinches it between two fingers, compacting it into a tiny, hard bead of thaumaturgons...

    A Game of Thrones - Defenders of the Vale

    Rhin, The Yard Rhin stands slightly reclined, his sword tip gently embedded in the already softening earth. He scratches behind his ear, running his slender fingers through the long, black hair piled across his shoulders. "It is tough for Creighton, yes? Times are distracting -- the war is done...

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs (OOC)

    Got nailed with an AoO. I had some internal debate over if subdual damage would be enough to count, but the rules say "damage," so I figured any would do. But you've got a cool shiner now! :D

    A Game of Thrones - The Defenders of the Vale

    We're good on my two-week vacation, ja? After readin' yer post on Rycan, it's probably more friendly rivalry and less animosity. Rhin would respect a Westrosi knight not being, well, a douchebag in the yard. :D

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs (OOC)

    Here's some stuff. DURATIONS -- Josh's Charm Person, 2 hours. Dartan's Detect Magic, 1 minute 54 seconds. Some failed saves, some made saves that last round. ;) Dartan, that nasty Net spell you got nailed with gives a -2 to attack rolls and gives an effective -4 penalty to your Dex score. You...

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs

    The Big Sink, corridor to cellblock #1 With Josh's words the dry trill of thaumaturgy fleets through the corridor. The air feels dry, static, dangerous, just for a split-second and then the magics have worked. Dim-yellow light flickers off the pistol-wielding prison-guard's face as his mouth...

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs (OOC)

    Just as a reminder, from now on someone will need to post the offical marching order when it's necessary so there are no discrepancies. And I'll try to start posting the actual roll results, though with some 27+ checks that might be more trouble than it's worth. :D I usually just roll and keep a...

    If you were stranded on an island w/ 3 books...

    Black Company d20 because I love Glen Cook's world and for it's various copy errors I think it's one of the best d20 books out there, I love the combat/crit rules. World of Warcraft d20 just for a wild change in game, if anything. Too much dark fantasy and no high fantasy makes island people...

    In Praise of Scenes of Artwork

    I just remembered this glorious piece of art from the AD&D2e PHB -- it's a suave halfling, with sideburns, of course, slitting open the coin purse of some orge/goblin thing while it played cards with two buddies. I think that's what got me hooked on rogues. :cool:

    Bront, just FYI, you can pretty much move through friendly squares just as if they were empty. If you want. :D

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs (OOC)

    Initially I thought you would, but apparently spells/spell-casting only shows up on Detect Magic when the spell is being cast, so not yet you haven't. :D I'm sorry about that post. I'm running on like four hours to sleep here. I'll try and go back and edit a few parts. Any thoughts on the...

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs (OOC)

    Also -- in the future so people don't get upset I'd like you guys to post exact marching orders for when it's important since I sort of just had to go on initative/how long it took people to do things/etc. Eliminating guesswork makes everyone happy!

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs (OOC)

    Well, you guys were movin' down the hall. I rolled Move Silently and Hides for everyone, which several people rolled really low on. Also -- as guards tend to patrol prisons, a patrol happened by. It occured to me that the group would move to match Makh as he moved along, but I suppose I'm wrong...

    Action delivered. :D Does anyone actually have magic items as part of their initial equipment?

    Rivets Eternal: Metal Men and Fleshy Cogs

    The Big Sink, Corridor leading to cellblock #1 The scene is very quiet save for breathing and the few other noises made. INT. FIXED-- The camera focuses on MAKH as the bugbear creeps down the grubby, dimly-lit corridor, fur bristling in concenration. MAKH holds the torn off gas lantern aloft...
