Against the Storm Part II: Luskan

[DM_Matt]

I have posted the Against the Storm: Reenforcements thread. Regular ATS players should not read it....

Radish: they seem to be pretty far along, looking on average to be at about your degree of transformation, but that does not necessarily entail level, just favor, and it may be that this particular church is well-favored.

Ubaar quothes:

"Perhaps one of our more charismatic (and male) companions could gain some information from that one. I would prefer to accomplish the A mission without damage or confrontations - Solonor is no foe of A."

*burp*
"Uthgar no fan of anyone up here - wouldn't mind cracking any of their skulls, after what they done to Ubaar's people.

But we prolly need info first, huh, before we a-ttack?

Ubaar no good at that..."

BTW, player update: Elric, due to job reasons, will have little internet time for the next 5 weeks. Badger and Fenrir have not been heard from on ENWorld in general for weeks.

That leaves Reaper, radish, and garyh, which is fine, esp considering that soon Leo and Eagle will join up with oyu guys, but its throwing the party balance totally out of whack.

In particular, a party that was already not the greatest socially is stuck with its least sociable members, making info gathering hard. In fact, there are no non-freak males to approach that Gondgirl.

I will email Badger and Fenrir and see what is up, but for now, just try to play your characters with a good bit of extra range (and perhaps some illusory deuglification)

I will also email Elric about putting Alex into communal control for a while (with him being able to override or post when he can), beucase of Alex's few social skills and his whopping (reletively speaking) 12 cha.

OOC: whoa. our current roster IS fairly problematic for cloak & dagger work, huh? Let's just wade into all the powerful NPC's and bash some heads - that'd work, right?

By the way, the combat about to begin in thoe reeinforcements thread (Which contains spoilers for the regular players, so dont read it) includes a detailed map. Expect more of these in the future.

Well, after today, I can start memorizing Eagle's Splendor, and casting that on a couple of you folks - that's 1d4+1 charisma boosted, which will increase your chances. If I can find a way to disguise who I am, I can work on it too....

Whoo-hoo!
Thanks for giving it a try, Matt.

Let us know how it turns out, how much of a pain it is, etc (since I haven't looked in the other thread)It's funny - many of my other characters are CHA-based.
Not Ubaar.

Alex saunters up to the girl and motions to the bartender to offer her a drink.

"You look pretty intense. What are you studying? I'll help you out with it if you'll play me a game of (insert nearest equivalent to chess) afterwards. I'm looking for a competitive game of (chess) and I'm sure an intellectual like you would give me a run for my money"

(If I don't post, feel free to take communal control of Alex. Best of luck!)

Chess actually exists in FR.

The girl looks up, somewat startled, and answers awkwardly in a quiet, scratchy, voice "oh..hi. I'd love a game of chess, but the high clerics are going to begin to become angry with me if I do not finish perfecting this design. She starts explaining what she is making. It is some sort of secured elevator that is based on some previous designs that she has in front of her. Her problems involve mathmatics and physics quite beyond Alex's skill, however.

It is not very gentlemanly not to introduce yourself. I'm Maggie Jalnik, Mr. Unidentified Man. Who are you?
