Rhun's Greyhawk OMEGA OOC Thread (ToEE) - CLOSED!!!

[CanadienneBacon]

Based on last round's and this round's IC text, I do not think Jinx, Ciaran and/or Aeron managed to get off the unconscious guard's armor in its entirety. Likely the man is still wearing some of his armor and thus is pretty heavy to carry. Rhun's call, of course.

Jinx'll carry the backpack (I had no idea the pack was Shoon's until just now--Jinx was just carrying it because Aeron said to get it!) unless or until he deems it too heavy to carry, at which point he'll drop it. I'd rather get out alive and have to replace gear than have to make up an entirely new character, if you take my meaning.

I would prefer to retreat back the way we came. If we cannot do that, then my second choice is to head north, deeper into the temple and to look for an alternative resting point away from the current fracas. Heading south seems to me to be the least favorable option. That said, Jinx will happily follow whomever takes the lead...right now, that's Aeron.

North is the way we came, take another look at the map. Personally I think that we should try to lure the enemies in the room into following us out so that they won't block us by coming out of the door to the south. Then we can escape down the souhern hall. Of course there might already be someone there...

Hey, DL, your tone to me just there is a bit rude. Do you honestly believe that I haven't looked at the map? Or possibly are you electing to purposefully be snide? It seems to me that when you feel others aren't responding to your suggestions the way you want them to, you snap at them out of impatience. That's no way to treat friends. I feel comfortable saying that to you since you and I actually do know another and have gamed on a long-term basis in person.

That said, I do realize that it's likely that all this hearkens back to my initial confusion over the map wherein I had misread and consequently had misinterpreted what the devil was going on. In my mind, we'd come from the west. If we initially came from the north, then, yes, my first preference for retreat is still to head back the way we came (north, based on what you said here), and my second choice then becomes heading west. Regardless, heading south remains my least favorite choice. And I do stand by what I said earlier, which is that Jinx'll happily follow whomever leads the way.

 

[Dire Lemming]

I'm sorry if what I said seemed rude, I didn't mean it to. I'm a bit exasperated at the fact that most of us seem to be so confused about what direction things are in when Rhun takes so much trouble to make everything clear. The map shows exactly the way we came.

Aeron at least knows that going west is a very very bad idea as that is where the reinforcements sound like they're coming from.

 

[CanadienneBacon]

It may well be that I was/am the only individual who's confused regarding the map. That's no fault of Rhun's. Which is why Jinx will quite contentedly follow after someone else for the remainder of this encounter!

Got it! Thanks for the head's up!

The guard is partially stripped. It generally takes 10 rounds to remove armor; I'd say half of it has been removed. Even without the armor, you are looking at an adult human male weighing between 170 - 200 or so.

Stripped? As in, stripped of his armor right? He's still wearing clothes underneath right?

Can I carry him then? I suppose it encumbers me.

Actually, on further review, Shoon can only carry a maximum of 150lb, which means this fellow is beyond his limit...which means Shoon can grab him and lift him, but will be limited to 5' per round.
