OOC: Adventure Path - Shackled City

[Krago o'the Mountain]

To Krug, Dichotomy, Mark Chance, Scotley, and Jdvn1:

Well, I'm back. Please allow me to explain and apologize.

I've gone through a really bad personal time over the last couple of months. I'll spare you all the details, but I will let you know that a major depression was part of those problems. If you or a family member have never struggled with depression yourself, it may be hard to understand. But even something as simple as writing, "Hey guys, I'm going to put the game on hold for awhile," can become impossible when in its throes. For leaving you all hanging like that, I do sincerely apologize.

Lately, as I've been coming out of the depression, I've begun to miss D&D, and Play by Post in particular. I thought for awhile that it would be impossible to get this game rolling once more, in fear that you, the players, would have long abandoned such hope. Thanks to your recent posts, I can see that, at least for some of you, that may not be the case. To put it simply, I'd like to get the game rolling again, picking up where we left off. I really like the characters, and thought we had made a very good beginning of it. I'd love for it to continue. If any of you wish to bow out, believe me, I will understand completely, and there will be no hard feelings. But, for those who still have interest, know that I'm here and I'd like to try again.

I await your responses.

Thanks for listening,
Krago

Welcome back. I hope things are better for you now. I do know people who suffer from depression, so I can appreciate what you've been going through. I'm eager to continue.

 

[Jdvn1]

Ditto! I hope things are better now, and the game seemed like a lot of fun (eventhough I haven't been introduced yet), and I'm eager to see it come back.

 

[Krago o'the Mountain]

Great news!

With Scotley, Jdvn1, and presumably Dichotomy, we have at least three players in the fold. That's enough to start, so I've posted in the IC thread! Feel free to jump back in over there when ready.

Jdvn1, the time is right to introduce Dowlee! We'll say that she has followed the PCs' trail from the temple of St. Cuthbert to the Drunken Morkoth Inn to Ghelve's Locks. Upon entering the Locksmith's shop, she sees no one on the sales floor, but she does hear voices from beyond the curtain. She follows the voices to the back room and comes upon the PCs and Ghelve in the aftermath of the battle with the skulk. Cool? Enter: Dowlee!

PS, Thanks for your well wishing Scotley and Jdvn1. Things are indeed much better now.

Thanks,
Krago

What would the church have told me about the people working on the children problem? Would I recognize them on sight and know their names, and would I know anything about them beforehand?

Would I have a letter of introduction?

I'm sure Jenya and co. would have given Dowlee a description at the very least, though probably not names. I think they would be recognizable on sight, though....introductions could follow after. There probably wouldn't be much more information known, except perhaps a brief summary of the previous evening's events on the streets....the assault by the face-painted thugs, the rescue of Ruphus by the PCs, and their subsequent meeting at the temple. At the Drunken Morkoth Dowlee likely would have heard of Konstantine's memorable performance.

As for identification, instead of a letter, let's say Jenya gave Dowlee a potion of cure moderate wounds, just like the one given to the others (including seal of St. Cuthbert). That should prove her aunthenticity.

That cover it? 'You may fire when ready.'

[Jdvn1]

Thankee from Dowlee!

 

[Krago o'the Mountain]

Hey, Krug's in the house!

Good to see Eliara is still in action.

[Jdvn1]

Woo! One more to go? Does someone want to email Mark?

 

[Mark Chance]

Well, apparently you don't, or you'd have just done it rather than trying to pass the buck.



I'm still here, BTW. Just a little slow this week with it being the end of the grading period.
