JollyDoc's Shackled City

[gfunk]

What happened to Raphael and his player? Did you lose the new guy beneath an avalanche of power gaming?

An excellent question, but we have no idea what became of him. His wife was pregnant and, presumably, had a baby recently. However, our attempt to reach him thus far have not met with any success. As of Sunday, we've not heard from him.

 

[Neverwinter Knight]

Did we not have that discussion recently about cowardly paladins? Bah, I bet his knees gave away when he saw the kuo-toa (?) ferryman!

On a more serious subject, I think that JollyDoc will have a tough job trying to kill the druid! Through his powers, he should be able to shift or wriggle himself out of almost every situation

 

[JollyDoc]

Thanks for everyone's enthusiastic input recently. Yes, these are interesting times for our reluctant heroes, and I'm as curious as the rest of you to see how the two newcomers fit in. I hope to be updating by week's end. Working on it now, but there was quite a bit of roleplaying this past week (for a change), and that takes a bit longer to flesh out into a readable story. Thanks to G for moderating and fielding lots of questions. Yes, alas poor Raphael...we'll just have to assume he was ambushed at the back of the party by a group of duergar, and now is there cabana boy somewhere in the Underdark.

 

[Angcuru]

Cabana Raphael. Seems fitting.

I'm REALLY gonna miss the awesome whacko-ness that Gadrid brought to the story, though. Stupid Erinyes.

But seeing as how Entropy and Company are still around in the realms, I think we'll see some more interesting craziness.

Well, well, well . . .

I don't know about you JollyDoc, but this sounds like a challenge to me!

Sorry about that, MoonSaber

Druid + Arrow of Slaying = Dead Druid.

Maybe you don't realize this, but Druids have good Fortitude saves. Furthermore, Constitution is generally the Druid's highest stat besides Wisdom, since it's easy to change other physical stats with Wild Shaping, and who needs Charisma? The chance of an Arrow of Slaying affecting a druid is small (even if Wathros is a wimpy elf for some reason). Obviously, enough Arrows of Slaying will kill him, but works for anyone.

Ah, that's alright. We don't need any stinkin' arrows of Druid Slaying. Flaming Burst Erinyes arrows seem to work just fine. Just ask Gardrid!

Wait a sec. Angcuru is confused. Did Rusty die too?
