OOC: Endur's Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil

[Endur]

Don't forget that Raner had the option of taking another dwarven substitution level at 2nd level. Giving him another d12 hp level plus the Racial Foes bonus.

2nd level: Racial Foes: +2 damage vs. orcs, goblinoids, and giants.

Aii, you all move quickly! Sorry for delays. I can't post during the day, as the boards don't function properly at work (something to do with the way they're coded interferes with the system we use).

As GM, my general plan is one major post from the GM each day. Any additional posts are just informational. In combat, my general plan is one round a day. That way, assuming you have access to the internet at some point during the day, you will have the chance to respond before I make another major post. I want everyone to have the opportunity to participate.

So, for instance, examining posts, the post at midnight last night where the party encounters Del was a "Major post". The post at 8pm today where the party is standing at the entrance to the Moathouse is another "Major post". Everything else were just informational posts.

Also, its perfectly ok to make multiple responses in a post to things that happened sequentially. i.e. one response "no thank you, I don't want breakfast" another response "I help dig the grave" third response "I look for tracks"

(It took less than three months for the party to make it through character creation and out of the obligatory tavern into the obligatory dungeon! Speed Record for PBP games!)

Note that for combat round posts, I tend to make a post for Round 1, and then slowly edit and fill out that post as people tell me what their actions are. the same thing for rounds 2 and so forth.

If Dalamar's character was going to encounter something bad on his scouting mission and there was going to be combat, I would have delayed the combat until everyone had had a chance to comment on whether they were going with him or not.

That would be cool.

Even if here and there a few days will certainly pass, if we can manage to have like 3-5 posts a week on average, we'll actually get somewhere!

For some reason I was thinking the next subst-level came later.

But an extra HP and Racial Foes sounds like a fair trade for a Ftr bonus feat. I'll update to the subst level.

As GM, my general plan is one major post from the GM each day.

Just as an FYI to everyone; I should be able to post at least 1/day during the week, but I'll very rarely be able to post on Saturdays, and only occasionally on Sundays.

(It's not that I don't have net access at home, just that I'm not home much on the weekends... )

The races books aren't bad, if you like specific options like that, and there are some neat race-specific feats/PrC in there, too, along with a good and detailed description of the various races.

Yep, right now the darkvision part is more important.

...and there it is already useful.

Toriah leveled, finally. Let's hope he survives this encounter to enjoy his new level.

Of course Kerwyn gets to really reap the benefits from his huge Init modifier... and then can't see a thing. He is so going to have Lylamwyn make him some goggles with darkvision (forget the name of the item) at some later point. Or at least an everburning torch he can tuck in his belt.
