[OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed but waitlist is available]

[Neurotic]

I'm the one with hands in my pockets on the left in the last picture

Lumrolur is CN because of mood swings and 'anything to get evil out' mentality. The world is full of evil and he does what he has to do to eradicate it. Even if that means occasional dubious actions. Except he will never harm innocents. The problem is, he's not convinced there are many innocents in the world.

He will work with others no problem, as long as they share his outlook on killing the real bad stuff. Not everyday-level evil, no. Serious evil.

I think @happylace and @Aethmud ?
The others are going to be joining the party a bit later due to RL travel.

I can incorporate a bit of Alma's intro, since the quest-giver has brought Alma on as a specialist.

I have the post with initial quest-giver that gathers the party together written, was going to post tomorrow morning (PST) but I could post tonight if folks prefer.

Yeah sorry, I've had a busy week. I can post an intro after the quest-giver post if that will flow better. I was holding off a bit to let some responses resolve, but maybe that's not the way to do it lol. Still getting back into the grove of the forum rp.

Ah sorry, I will use "remove formatting" rather than going clicking black after using another colour
test- is this better?

 

[Quickleaf]

Yeah "remove formatting" should work if it's a copy+paste issue.

Ok! We're officially off and running. My new GM post is here: https://www.enworld.org/threads/ic-quickleafs-rime-of-the-frostmaiden.697783/page-2#post-9026163

@Quickleaf I'm cool with you rolling for my character. If I ask to do something and it requires a roll, just make the roll for me and incorporate my result into your resolution of the action to cut down on wait time. Likewise any saves - if I don't have a important decision to make just roll it.

That's an interesting idea. Would definitely speed up Perception checks and maybe some lore checks. I guarantee that I won't be able to keep track of your saving throw bonuses though (I'm tracking pleeeenty other stuff), but I like the cut of your jib. I suspect you're right, that it may speed/smooth things along.

 

[Neurotic]

Same! If it is something yoz need esp if multiple chars are involved use the reactions, roll what's needed etc

Everyone: state your reaction triggers up front for the round do DM can make a best guess and use ot, trust me retcon is a slow thing in pbp

yeah, any special bonuses, like "advantage on poison saves", "add d4 to dex save if failed as a reaction" or whatever are too fine grained for you to keep track of. For me, whatever makes the narrative work the best is fine by me. I've also made character choices to make it as simple to run on pbp as possible, like not using stuff that triggers much on other players turns, like oppertunity attacks
