My goal was to try and write in in a descriptive rather than mechanical manner. I tried to keep the character's actions and responces true to your posts, but did adapt then somewhat to allow for the character's better grasp of the picture than the players. Did I step on anyones toes?Which brings me to the map. I will try to have one available for scenes in the future. But its late appearance does allow me the opportunity to get some feedback. How big a surprise was the layout? Or in other words, how successful were the posts in conveying the lay of the land and locations of the characters. What, if anything, worked in helping you to visualise it?Let me know any thoughts, ideas and suggestions on the above or anything that has happened so far.One more thing. I find the quarterstaff +1 melee (1d6+1, x2) or small javlin +1 ranged (1d4-1, x2, 30ft) format with the easiest to read.I'm not great at record keeping (though I do try <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" /> ) so it's probably best use your current total attack bonus rather than your BAB here.cheersthe head of the dog</blockquote>
