    You know there's another door, right?

    Roll for Effect or Intent?

    ? In this example, you say the player would say "But I wouldn't do that..." (regarding the "You spend a few days roughing up suspects..." My point is, I would ask them how they want to get the names of people involved. If they say, "we go around roughing people up', then obviously, I haven't...

    (IC) Dog Days of Doom!

    As Anson slides out onto the ledge and starts making his way across the room, the tiefling yells, "Stay there! Don't come any further!" The elf with the bow keeps it trained on Anson but does not shoot, as if waiting for a sign of violence or a command from the teifling. Then many things...

    (OOC) The Dog Days of Doom

    I just responded IC (with two separate posts). I'm just not sure how advancing (especially running and jumping at them) would not look like a threat. Right now there's a 15 foot pit between you which is enforcing a 'safe' distance.

    (IC) Dog Days of Doom!

    Deidre watches the exchange and it's obvious to her that the armoured man (who may or may not be a dwarf) is impatient and keeps trying to make quips. Any provocation might trigger him. The tiefling woman seems to be keeping him on a leash - cutting him off before he can speak. While her tone...

    (IC) Dog Days of Doom!

    Do you mean Kyuss, Lord of Undead? She laughs. Her tone is wholly incredulous, "Kyuss, himself, rules over Erin Tor, City of the Dead, and you felt the best course of action was to escort a child into a crypt crawling with undead?" She motions to her horns, "And I thought my parents were...

    Roll for Effect or Intent?

    One is you dictating what the players do, the other one is asking them what they do.

    Roll for Effect or Intent?

    I use it primarily if players have different goals happening simultaneously and I don't want to take up game time doing every roll. They'd describe it, then I'd have them roll and I'd provide the information and/or we'd work together to come up with the events of how it was successful or...

    (OOC) The Dog Days of Doom

    I know this is PbP so I'm wondering if I should just keep dialoguing until someone posts, "yeah, lets attack!" Or if I should pause the discussion and let you guys decide what you want to do. @FitzTheRuke If you jump the pit, are you planning on attacking or just advancing? @Lidgar were you...

    (OOC) The Dog Days of Doom

    Don’t worry about failed persuasion checks. I’ll ask for a roll if one is necessary. The initial check failed so they aren’t going to trust you but I’d rather rp the conversation and that will affect the DC once I think the conversation isn’t going to go any further. OTOH, you don’t know...

    (IC) Dog Days of Doom!

    There's a look of both amusement and confusion on their faces. The Tiefling responds, "If people died because we triggered the wards down here, that's unfortunate. I suppose they should have disarmed them if they were inviting tourists."

    (5.24 PBP) Vault of the Dracolich (IC) Redux

    [/td] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/SPOILER] Merrick, leading the way behind Pikki, looked at the guard, "Shift Change." He nodded his head to towards the crazy Dragon Cult worshipper with the tattoo on his forehead as if to say to the guard, yeah, I don't make the rules here. I just do what I'm told...

    (IC) Dog Days of Doom!

    The armoured man scoffs, "What, are there crypt tours for children now? Man, Pelor priests, all haughty but money grubbers like everyone else." The tiefling at the door interjects with suspicion in her voice, "Why does this child need to light the brazier? I don't know of any Wee Jas...

    Morality of mind control…

    A person charges at the wizard with a sword, with the intent of killing the wizard. The wizard casts Suggestion, “Drop your sword and go take a 5 km walk to think about your actions” DM: you used mind control without their consent! Evil! I don’t really buy the whole “without consent...

    (IC) Dog Days of Doom!

    8:45 Anson approaches the statue, light in hand. This Statue does not have a key in it. The door has no lever but it's been wedged open by a spike, similar to the other doors before it. He moves to the door to peek inside. The floor of this rectangular chamber is breached directly in front...
