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

[Quickleaf]

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

I appreciate that! Actually, with my house rules, your PC is the only one who can make opp attacks.

Don't worry, most of the monsters don't get opp attacks either. I've restricted them to soldier/guardian-types, dragons, tentacled monsters, and monsters with reaction/reach (e.g. hydra). Your typical bandit, goblin, or ice troll? Nope.

@Steve Gorak How are you doing with those rough old school rolls and the stuff we chatted about? Need any help with character creation?

hey there,

Sorry for being mia, I got a shoulder surgery on Tuesday, and have been out of it. I’m getting better but my mind is still cloudy, so I appreciate your patience
Cheers,

I had a feeling something was up. Wishing you a restful and good recovery post-surgery, Steve.

We'll keep your seat in the game warm for you

EDIT: I also added lists of NPCs to the first IC post so we don't have to go hunting to remember "that one guy": https://www.enworld.org/threads/ic-quickleafs-rime-of-the-frostmaiden.697783/#post-9023408

@Quickleaf I have been going back and forth about dropping one of my extra languages and picking up medicine. I wanted to make sure that was OK with you? I'd probably drop Orcish. Let me know?

Yep, that's no problem. The house rule for "bonus skills/languages = Int modifier" pretty much covers you there.

Well crap. I was sitting here thinking “I haven’t gotten a notification from enworld in two days. Weren’t we supposed to start playing yesterday?”

Yes, apparently. I’ll get caught up here and jump in.

No worries, tglassy. Between Steve's surgery, Aethmud's schedule, dave2008's travels... we're going to have a "Dwarves from the Hobbit" scene of more and more adventurers arriving.

Would an Arcana check work for examining the ice dagger?

 

[Necropolitan]

I'll take that as a yes then.
1D20+6 = [11]+6 = 17

You'll need to handle the ice dagger while inspecting it, is that ok?

I can post your results in the IC thread using GM tags if that's alright. Keep things centralized.
