Hollow's Last Hope [OOC]

[YeOldeAlbatross]

I held off on posting this morning, because I hoped Voadam might get a word in from Loricallior.

At any rate, expect an update tonight, in which I resolve the new Diplomacy check, and get you guys into the herbalists shop...one way another.

 

[Voadam]

Late, but I got one in today.

 

[Voadam]

Looking over the character sheets I was surprised how social skill heavy our group is.

Nicely done.

My initial draft of Jared had more social skills, but I figured that was covered after looking at some other characters drafts.

Besides its been more fun this way.

All Hakkara has in terms of social skills is Intimidate... unless you count hacking someone's head off a social skill, in which case she's pretty good at that too

Well, I would definitely count decapitation as a VERY social activity. I don't care how many ranks in Diplomacy, Bluff, or Intimidate somebody has, there is NO better way to gently convince somebody to move out of your way then removing their head. It worked on me.

One thing that I noticed is that we all have good characters. That comes as a surprise to me, since in most of my games, we've had at least one tolerable evil character, and countless slightly shady neutral ones. Well, I suppose that we can look forward to plenty of heroics and feel-good moments! A feel-good adventure for the whole family!

My first thought was to get all steely, say "out of the way mortals" and put the fear of elves into them with a demonstration of fire breath. But that's not quite the direction I want to go with a friendly diplomacy oriented elven caster.

Intimidate skill definitely counts for social interactions IMO.

As you conclude your discussion with the herbalist, please keep in mind that you still don't know exactly where the locations of the three needed ingredients are. Jared may have been onto something with his idea of seeking additional help...

Hakkara is prone to going off "half-cocked", so keep that in mind. She is a tempestuous barbarian warrior-maiden after all.

We've got until the morning to do something before the metaphorical train is leaving, so we should have time to find someone that knows where to find some of that stuff is located.
