Lord Ogglebottoms Odd Tasks: All in a Nights Work (DM: DMDanW, Judge: Renau1g)

[SBLOCK=TOMALAK]
I am fairly new at uploading images to the boards, so I may have done something wrong on my end. I uploaded it to ENworld and then inserted it into the message as a thumbnail as well as putting it into a spoiler block.

Just fire me a PM if the map does not work for you and we will figure something out.

[sblock=Map problems]
Anyone else having map problems?
[/sblock]
[sblock=New Map]
I've updated the map to show current positions.

The brown circle at the center of the trees are obviously the tree trunks, which can provide cover.

[sblock=map trouble]No, no trouble with the maps. It just took me a while to figure out you had intentionally blocked out areas of the map intentionally.[/sblock]

 

[DMDanW]

[sblock=Map Clarification]
The grey areas of the map are 'the fog of war', or areas that your characters cannot see yet. As you move, I will reveal the areas you can see.

[sblock=Minharath]
Is Minharath moving or staying where he is?

Zharne silently advances with the other and then takes cover behind tree and he also tries to hear what is happening in the alley


[sblock=Action Details]
Move to W,-1
stealth check: 13
perception check: 13
[/sblock]

 

[Tomalak]

[sblock=movement]It will be my habit, as a dedicated healer, to act last in any given round. I am waiting to see where everyone is placed to move Minharath.[/sblock]

 

[Banesfinger]

In his heavy rusted armour, Thorn knows he'll probably give-away his party's position, so he decides to advance only half-way down the dark alley. He still listens intently, hoping to hear what is going on.

[sblock=Action Details]
Move to U,-9
1d20+2(Stealth)=12
1d20+8(Perception)=21
[/sblock]

 

[DMDanW]

Alright, now just waiting for Minharath's movement and I can post an update and fill you in on all those great perception checks (and not so great stealth checks...).

 

[Tomalak]

[sblock=location]Put me @ v,-5

[/sblock]

 

[DMDanW]

[sblock=Minharath]
Are you moving silently? If so I need a stealth roll
[/sblock]

 

[Tomalak]

[sblock=stealth?]Minharath has no skill in being unnoticed. I'm not referring to his stats, either. Rather, I am referring to the fact that I doubt it would enter his mind to be 'stealthy', also that he could do so if he tried.
On the other hand, I hate 'that guy' at the table, the one who makes the jackass decision and justifies it with 'it's what my character would do'. So, under the aegis of Suspension-of-disbelief, here's my stealth roll: 1d20=7[/sblock]
