(Inactive) Psion's Return to the Tomb of Horrors (OOC)

[Psion]

Hmm, I already have that in my spell section, why don't we put it there or in a sepearate character sheet entry?

That's fine. I just figured it might change more often than you want to change your character sheet. And you might have "collective preparations" (like "I cast extended X on character Y) so that it would affect more than one character.

Psion, when do you want the alternate characters done?

 

[Nightbreeze]

Zombies
I'll be waiting for Ary, then will probably summon something.

I can't really hang around waiting for everyone to post in order (got four little kids and a deployed dad right now), and I'm betting I'm not the only one who doesn't have enough time. I didn't want to not post, though, so I went ahead and put up a combat post for Peja. I'm sorry to have posted out of order and hope that doing so will be okay both now and in future rounds. Psion, are you comfortable resolving action according to the stated initiative order even when we post willy-nilly?

I'm easy with Peja going wherever in the marching order. Someone with healing might want to go in the middle, but it doesn't need to be Peja. Peja is slow with that 20 ft movement and kind of bumbles along, so putting him last is fitting.

I don't really know the PC well enough yet to know whether he's got any spells going on that he started the day by casting, but his spells are already prepared and listed in the RG. I'll just leave him with his base stats as is, and go from there. When dealing with undead, Peja will first try to turn them. After that, if the undead look intelligent, he'll death ward himself and perhaps one other melee combatant, then will wade into melee with his +1 quarterstaff of undead bane. If a companion looks ragged, Peja will stop fighting and tend said companion...hide from undead or sanctuary would be useful in these circumstances.

When dealing with traps, Peja will offer to buff whomever will be dealing with the trap and then will stand a discrete distance back from whatever is about to blow up.

Other than that, Peja is a tank. He can cast in combat and will wield his quarterstaff like there's no tomorrow. Please use him such if I'm not around.

Rino,

I would just sketch out the basics, otherwise, take your time. There's a good chance the starting level will go up before any alternates are required, unless someone drops.

 

[Rino]

well i posted the outline of my first and my second will go up soon

I wouldn't worry about posting 'in order' -- it would take forever if we all waited patiently in order. If you take a look at some of the other games going on (especially Endur's games) you'll see posting out of order is pretty common.

That's fine. If you want to post your actions ahead of time, go ahead, just lead off with words like "prepares to", and try to word around possible eventualities (like "charges the closest remaining enemy" instead of "charges the big guy".) Whatever keeps the game flowing is good.

Indeed. I don't worry about it in the games I DM here or play in, but this being our first combat together, I did just want to make sure that others are okay with it.

 

[Rino]

both alternates concepts are posted
