[OOC] Academy of Drell, Part II

And there was really nothing to do there anymore without disturbing the tomb.

The levitation also does not work inside the circle. As Sildarin approaches the outside of the zone, he continues to try to levitate, but with no effect until he is completely outside the marked patch on the floor.

A close examination of Sildarin's footprints does reveal they are different than those mysterious ones from earlier. While the original footprints terminate in mid-stride, Sildarin's are a bit scuffed where he lifts off, and the demarcation isn't as clear.

So the other foot prints are the same at the beginning and end? Where as his are the same through the middle of the circle but different at the edges because of take off and landing? Like the guy had a pass without trace that worked everywhere but in the circle?

Nothing contradicts this theory.

I'm sorry the flow of the game died again.

Week of vacation (where I spent a lot of time not online) and a three-day gaming convention have destroyed my game continuity. I will pick it up on Monday morning at the latest.

I am a little disappointed by how we are leaving so many things behind us. I was busy for a few days, and I couldn't post but Victor probably would have remained in the cave. Now I'll follow the rest of the active players, but please, let's try to solve a problem at a time.

 

[Zhure]

The boards were down today during my posting time. I'll try to catch up later.

In regards to what Lichtenhart said: It's ok, Victor can remain behind in the caves and continue to investigate. As I've said before, this is not a linear adventure.

Been awhile since I've updated here...

I'd like to see a roll call, as we're missing quite a few members.

- Novyet, Jeremy, Dalamar and Gnomeworks are all in the hunt and everything is fine as far as I can tell. If there's an aspect of the game that bothers you, please let me know.

Lichtenhart missed the last fight, but was right with us up until then. I know he expressed a disatisfaction at the lack of resolution of certain details. I hope that's not why he's been absent.

eevileyore (Kith) has a problem with homelessness IRL. I hope that hasn't recurred. If so, drop me an email if at all possible. I can at least express my regrets if I can't be of other help.

Tokiwong and perivas have disappeared as well. No clue why on either one. Please email me if you want to re-join. We'd love to have you.

I know poilbrun has some schooling that's keeping him busy. At least that based on my recollection from the OOC thread part 1. Last I heard, Maerath was trying to learn a spell but I dragged the character into the underground chambers (to keep everyone together).

If you aren't making a regular appearance and want to return, please let me know and I will work it back in. If you've decided to drop out, please let me know why. Feedback is important for improvement. It's easy to get feedback in a table-top game, because you can hear and see all the players.

Thanks!
Greg

From SRD
When a character's current hit points drop to exactly 0, the character is disabled. The character is not unconscious, but is close to it. The character can only take a partial action each round, and if the character performs any strenuous activity, the character takes 1 point of damage after the completing the act.

If I understand that correctly, I wouldn't need a concentration check as the damage comes after the power and then the damage would be reduced from the temp HP.

I have to say sorry to everyone.
This is a difficult moment for me in RL and I was kinda forced to stop posting on a very short notice. I'll be back on line and posting friday morning, i think. I intended Victor to stay in the cave and investigate a little more while the others looked what was happening in the surface, but I never managed to post it.
I still like this game very much, don't worry

Absolutely correct. Good call. Me asking for a concentration check was incorrect. Consider it ruled in your favor. I'll do an edit.
