I'm still in Tooele, but haven't played for ages. I'm thinking about trying to get back into it, though.

Well, it's been a year, so here's a final bump. Is anyone near Tooele looking for a game or another player?

Well, congratulations on finding a face to face game. I enjoyed this game, but I think it would have been awesome face to face. Thanks to all who made this fun! I think Rayburn would have made himself disappear shortly after returning. He just lacks the focus/drive to face something...

So... what's going on? There hasn't been an update on the game thread for 10 days! I've been holding back since Rayburn doesn't really have anything to add at the moment. Are we all waiting for each other to go first? Did the game suddenly die?

"No, there isn't. When most of the current nobility were our age, there was a lot of feuding. It was a dangerous time. Quite frankly, I think my father... no, all of our parents are a bit jealous that we haven't faced 'real' danger and they think that we're not capable of, well, anything...

Dang it, boards ate my post. I'll try again, but it's late, so forgive any incoherence. I'd like to continue for another chapter, provided that everyone (except Jack of Tales/Cait, who seems to have already disappeared) else wants to. If we do continue, does anyone have any pointers on how to...

"He's my father's captain of the guard." Rayburn studies the fallen figure for a moment, then continues, thoughtful. "He was likely telling the truth about testing us. In all likelihood, he wasn't supposed to kill us outright. Just make things difficult in a possibly lethal manner." Rayburn...

Rayburn suppresses a curse and wishes he'd spent a little more time studying... something. Anything combat-related, really. Rayburn struggles to remember something more about swordplay and tries to keep his cool all at once. "My father should have chosen a better proctor to administer the...

"If he did order our deaths, you're doing a rather poor job of it, don't you think? I suggest you surrender now, Mr. Oakly," Rayburn says casually. Rayburn readies an attack, if Mr. Oakly does anything other than surrender, Rayburn tries to stab him (+5, 2d6 with flanking).

Rayburn moves to flank One-Eye. "Would he be irate at us because you are unworthy of the expenditure," he asks as he attacks, "or at you for giving us occasion to use it?" OOC: Move to flank (opposite Kerin, avoiding AoO if at all possible), attack +5 (including +2 flanking bonus), 1d6+1d6 SA...

No problem. Let us know what you need to do. I know it's hard to find time at home with a new baby. Sorry about my disappearance this last week. Some stuff came up suddenly and I was without internet for several days. I'm back now.

Rayburn withdraws, discarding his bow and drawing his rapier. "You could surrender, you know," Rayburn remarks casually as he studies him, looking for some clue as to his identity. OOC: Drop bow (free), move to Kerin and draw rapier (move), comment (free), make another spot check (move).

Rayburn pockets his wand of magic missiles and draws his shortbow while following One-Eye. As he does so he says, "Cait, would you mind keeping an eye one the mercenaries? I'd hate to see them forget their surrender." OOC: Stow wand (move), move 30' while drawing bow (move)

Rayburn strides forward as well and readies a spell, but says nothing. OOC: Agatha is nearly always with Rayburn, unless otherwise stated. She is currently with him. And get her closer to One-Eye? The man just cut down a horse! The readied spell is ray of enfeeblement, targeted at One-Eye...

"They appear to be unconscious still, so I would assume they are unaware of the surrender." Rayburn calls out to the mercenaries as he moves towards One-Eye (skirting the mercenaries). "Disarm those that that were magicked. When they awaken, they may be somewhat disoriented. Make sure they...

Rayburn aims the wand at One-Eye as he says, "In all fairness, Lily, they were given an opportunity to surrender, and they chose not to take it. I'm not sure that showing them mercy now sets a good precedent." If One-eye seems to be in range (130'), Rayburn then zaps him. If he is not, then...

Rayburn lets out a sigh of relief as Xaros' spell heals him. "Thank you, Xaros. I guess I was hoping they would miss more often." After Lily offers her assistance Rayburn reponds, "Thank you, Lily, but I am alright for the moment." Rayburn then pokes his head up over the rock and looks for a...

"Gah... I'm turning into a pincushion again," chokes Rayburn. He turns and runs to take cover near Xaros, where he steels himself and removes the arrows. After removing the arrows he takes a deep breath to calm himself and mutters, "I think my new goal in life is to learn protection from...

Shaking a little with relief at the mercenaries' lack of resistance, Rayburn retreats to let the more martially inclined finish things off. As he passes Lily he offers a heartfelt "Thank you, Lily." As he retreats, he points his faithful wand of magic missile and zaps the mercenary that just...

She didn't want out, eh? Well, congratulations! I'm glad to hear all is well.
