OOC: Endur's Return to TOEE part 2

[Endur]

Toriah has no opinion as to where to go and when, so he'll follow the others' lead(s).

Having no opinion makes it hard to order dinner from a menu.

Having no opinion does make it easy for the party to make agreement, but somebody has to make a decision.

This is not meant to be critical.

I'm just pointing out that, from a Play by Post GM perspective, not having an opinion is actually worse in some ways than having lots of people with contradictory opinions.

 

[Pyrex]

Raner has an opinion! We should rest in the mines!

To be a little more specific, Raner believes Room 6 to be a tactically valid choice.

 

[Thanee]

Hey, what's wrong with the offer?

[Endur]

Nothing's really wrong with the offer. The mercenary was just following the old approach about not accepting the offer until he tried to negotiate something better.

 

[Thanee]

I guess Toriah thinks it is a little too generous...

Or, that Lenya talked rather weird for someone interviewing a hireling, but then again, Lenya has rather little clue about these things and she is not very lawful either, so she approaches things like this a little differently.

Well, we'll see if anyone voices any objections to what she told them... but I think it would be quite useful to have two more swords down there, even if they are only good for keeping some of the weaker minions at bay, which is what I'm expecting, really, although I have absolutely no idea what level they might be, actually. Hopefully not 1st.

What equipment (i.e. armor, weapons, magic auras) do the two warriors have/use?

If they can make use of masterwork bastard swords or short swords, masterwork mighty composite longbow, masterwork full plate or banded mail, masterwork heavy steel shield... that's something we could equipm them with immediately, I think.

Maybe also a few Potions of Cure Light Wounds each, we really got enough of those, and they could help keep them alive and also be used to stabilize someone. It would also make a good impression, if we give them healing potions.

P.S. Have I missed some use of the wand of cure light wounds, Lenya has? I only remember the one time, after the gargoyle fight, where we used 8 charges (Lenya used 4 on Kerwyn, and Belawer then 4 on the rest of the party), IIRC. Just wondering, since Xael has a different number of charges listed than I do.

 

[Endur]

I believe 18 charges have been used so far. 8 after gargoyles and 10 after the Howler. How you split charges (all from one wand, some from each, is up to the party).

The warriors have standard merc equipment: masterwork bastard swords, longbows, banded mail armor, large shields. They each have one potion already.

 

[Endur]

Charm Person: I didn't specify whether the warrior made his saving throw because I'm not sure it would be obvious whether the warrior made his saving throw.

 

[Thanee]

here's the part about noticing saves...

Succeeding on a Saving Throw: A creature that successfully saves against a spell that has no obvious physical effects feels a hostile force or a tingle, but cannot deduce the exact nature of the attack. Likewise, if a creature’s saving throw succeeds against a targeted spell you sense that the spell has failed. You do not sense when creatures succeed on saves against effect and area spells.

Ok, then there should be 9 charges gone from both wands, not just 5 (Xael probably figured in the Howler, but not yet the Gargoyles, while I have it the other way around ).
