(CSRHoD) CS's Red Hand of Doom [OOC]

[Creamsteak]

Not as much as it shoulda been. I had intended to just run the game for my visiting friends, but peer pressure and living with certain people led me to finally saying "alright" to some extras playing even though it went against my better judgement. The real problem was, much as I had predicted and warned, that the two groups would not get along. My old gaming group from St. Louis is RP heavy, and couldn't care less about the specific mechanics. The people I play with in Columbia are much more along the line of dice-grinders. I can run for both, but not really 'at the same time.'

Just to let you all know that I'm away on a brief holiday from this coming Saturday, 9th, until next week Wednesday, 13th. I'll be unable to post during this time, but should be back to normal on the 14th. DM, please NPC Avril and Mandla during this time.

Mkay. Assuming this is the last combat round (hopefully) it shouldn't be any stretch to just have them in the background for the next leg.

 

[Redclaw]

Have a good holiday, Pinotage.

And while I'm here, can I just say, "Lesson learned. No more frontline wizard for me."

 

[Dalamar]

Sorry about going MIA. Had an extra work shift on Monday and yesterday there was a big party (with sauna, which is most excellent) so I didn't have a chance to be online much.

Sucks to be a dog/horse in my game apparently.

Also don't forget that two hobgoblins are unconcious from color spray inside the building...

Sucks to be a dog/horse in my game apparently.

LOL! That's alright. It makes for good roleplaying opportunities.

BTW, since it caused some confusion last week and this is the game I update the most often, I just want to give fair warning that I'm going to go light this weekend up until Tuesday evening. I've decided to spend some time warming up my programming skills that havn't been used in a couple months.

Also, explaining a pantomime is something I'm going to have to do more often...

 

[Vigwyn the Unruly]

I think it is possible that we have not yet hit on the hobgoblin's exact meaning, though I think we are very close. Can one of the smarter characters (maybe Larian) make an Intelligence check to see if they can faithfully interpret the gestures?

 

[Creamsteak]

The link you're probably missing is one that the group should "probably" be missing regardless, because it comes from information you're not yet aware of. It's possible someone brilliant could "Sherlock Holmes" it, and inductively determine what specifically is missing, but I don't think it's particularly realistic.
