Clasically Modern (Hopefully) Kickin' Hivemind Thread

I haven't figured him out yet, I don't think. I have some loose theories, but I'm not comfortable with any of them. I guess we'll just find out in-character.

And, Rystil, I can't believe the innkeeper is an expert on dragons. It's the sort of thing I'd do solely to progress the story, but is still kind of a stretch.

He has reasons for being an expert on dragons, and they are actually rules-based reasons and not story-based:

As an alchemist, he took ranks in Knowledge: Arcana, and the game rules say that this makes you an expert on dragons too

I dunno If I ever get a UROP, that'd probably eat up time, but right now I don't have enough time for one--I only have erratic holes where I am free, which is perfect for posting on ENWorld, but not really conducive for anything else

UROP?

 

[Rystil Arden]

Oh, KO, as the judge, should I email you a wrap-up of the hobgoblin encounter et al? It's rather amusing, I think

 

[Rystil Arden]

UROP?

Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program.

The old one told the new one how much work that is, considering your posting rate.

Eudora's going to quit!

Eudora's going to quit!

Darn you, you lazy Nymph from the constellation Hyades, err author named Welty, err e-mail client!

 

[Jdvn1]

No. But I can't get the old one for free on my new laptop because the MIT free downloads site doesn't have it anymore

I always keep old install files and such. Comes in handy for just this sort of situation. I don't know if I have Eudora, though... I only used it briefly.

Right, but he's having to hit some decently high DCs there.

All of the above!

That's certainly true, although admittedly he's a decently leveled Expert who put his good stat from the standard array into Int, +1 for being Middle-Aged, so he's got a pretty good bonus.
