S@squ@tch's Against the Giants - Team Black OOC - Grinding

[s@squ@tch]

Drow longknife is an exotic weapon. Similar to a shortsword, but balanced for throwing. The ones from the scorrow that you found are size large. The one on the dead drow is medium sized.

Action points can be used to augment a lot of rolls -- like to-hit, saving throw, SR checks, etc.

Only Sanne has a action point specific power (instant infusion) that I am aware of in this group.

So is the claw insignia on the drow's cloak (or tattoo) by any chance green?

 

[s@squ@tch]

Claw on the back of the cloak is black, it is on a greenish-jungle camoflage-like cloth.

Tattoo on the drow cheek is white -- set off from his black skin.

APs can be used on any d20 roll, though only once per round. We're 8th level, so you roll 2d6 and take the highest.

FYI - any artificer can do what Sanne's been doing.

You can also use 2 APs to get extra uses of x/day abilities - bardic music, rage, smite evil, stunnig fist, turn/rebuke undead, and wild shape are called out speicifically in the ECS; anything else is at DM's discretion.

So, with Voadam being some-what out due to his move, it makes my job of NPC'ing him and his conversation with the lift to be somewhat difficult.

Does anyone want to pick up where the green wizard left off? Or is the group more inclined to rest for the night and go from there?

Either way, just let me know in the IC thread.

Thanks!

Aeranduil doesn't want anything to do with the lift, beside transportation. He didn't like its comments about elves.

 

[DEFCON 1]

Let's just skip ahead. Any useful info we might receive from the lift can be doled out by S@squ@tch at various later points as need be... and we don't have to have 4/5 of the party completely useless for the time being because we don't speak Giant.

 

[s@squ@tch]

That's fine with me.

Proposed watch schedule:

1st: Ipshivi
Morika
2nd: Ipshivi
Aeranduil
3rd: Ipshivi
Thanor

Plans for the night?

I know that Voadam wanted to prepare some Identify spells and also attempt to read the scrolls.

I'd like to take this opportunity and thank those of you who have stuck by this game -- and rejoined after the unannounced hiatus.

That being said, if there is something that I can do in order to improve the game, please let me know -- my goal is to create a sense of pulse-pounding excitement to capture the essence of this very classic module.

If you are no longer that excited about your PC in the game, or if the flame has gone out, please let me know -- we are at the best point in the game to tweak a PC, if that is something that will reignite the fire.

If you are no longer interested in the game, please let me know. There will be no hard feelings if you just aren't 'feeling' it anymore. I don't want you to feel obligated to participate in something that you don't want to be part of. There is no shame in saying,"You know, I just can't recapture the excitement I had with this PC before the unplanned hiatus." I completely understand.

That being said, I have to admit that I'm quite psyched to finally have the group at the beginning of the actual module -- and I hope that the rest of you feel the same.
