[D&D 3.5] War of the Burning Sky [OOC] [Closed]

[pneumatik]

End of round one

So, I'm sure the question everyone's asking themselves is where Illiana Vresk is - I know I am. For now, she's just not there. If mg2k1 posts, we'll work out details.

Also, I want to make combat go as quickly as possible (for a pbp). First, the enemy's initiative is 10. So Rashelle, Liiros, and Plavin all post your actions for round two, then I'll post then enemy's and Torrent's actions (expect all NPCs to go on the same initiative count). Then all the PCs post what they're doing. So initiative will look something like:

• Rashelle, Liiros, and Plavin
• Enemies and Torrent
• All PCs
• Enemies and Torrent
• All PCs.
• etc.

Second, immediate actions pose a big problem in PbP games. Because of this, I'm not going to narrate the results of enemy actions. So instead of:

The orc swings his battleaxe at you, and it sinks deep into your shoulder

I'll post something like:

The orc swings his battleaxe at your ferociously. [sblock=OOC]22 to hit; 11 dmg[/sblock]

and you'll write what happens. This way, if you would normally get hit by a 22 but you use an immediate action to boost your AC so it misses you, you can do that.

Questions, or is it clear enough?

Sounds good, poor low init...

You and me both!

renau1g: I just realized that Korrin knows a bunch of level 2 maneuvers. I don't think you can learn any before level 3.

Sorry for the delayed comments on characters recently, btw. With combat started, I'm looking at your character sheets a little more closely.

 

[renau1g]

Ah I see. I am not too familiar with the book. I'll correct shortly. Sorry 'bout that.

renau1g: I just realized that Korrin knows a bunch of level 2 maneuvers. I don't think you can learn any before level 3.

This would be correct. You can learn maneuvers that are half the level of your Initiator Level. So for 2nd level maneuvers, a level 3 initiator level is required.

Also renau1g, if you decide to multi-class with rogue, rogue levels only count as 1/2 an initiator level. So if you look at my PC Zazz in your game (Rogue 2 // Swordsage 4), he is only a 5th level initiator, as opposed to a 6th for a 6th level swordsage.

We're just waiting for Jemal to post Korrin's actions in the IC thread before moving forward. Jemal, if you don't post by tomorrow evening, I'll act for Korrin.

For Jemal, isn't he playing Rashelle? I'm playing Korrin.

 

[Jemal]

yar, Rashelle is mine, and she's allready acted.

I don't know how I got the PC names wrong. It's Rashelle who needs to go. Rashelle last acted in post 65 of the thread, and round 1 ended in post 66. Rashelle's 22 init puts her before the enemies (they're on 10), so she needs to go before I can post NPC actions for round 2.
