stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. I [OOC]

[stonegod]

FYI: No one's save vs. blindness was close enough that round that an AP spent would have mattered. I am considering, however, that if a 'save-or-really-bad-stuff-happens' effect happens (and that you are aware of it), I will spend an AP if it seems that it might help. I.e., the first time an effect is used, you prolly wouldn't get such a chance, but afterwards yes.

Let me know if this is a problem or if you have comments.

Sounds fine to me, although Ashlyn doesn't exactly have too many AP's right now (at least not until she gets to the castle and levels )

@stonegod: Just a note, if necessary Ashlyn will definitely spend an AP to avoid being stunned during this fight.

Also, during the previous round (round 6) did Ashlyn get a full attack, since she didn't need to move?

Second attack missed.

Second attack missed.

Cool ... just wanted to check since you normally note if an attack misses

"Mercenary, where you're at is the wrong place to be!" she warns.

Poor Ladreth ... he can't even answer, let alone move out of the way ...
Nice RP though ...

...and his back is turned to where the bolt would come from, and he's none too smart either so he probably wouldn't know where the attack came from.

In other words, if Ladreth's position is holding Janis back from casting said spell, go for it.

This round the only thing hold Janis back is the logistics of putting one thing away and pulling out the other. Since I'm about an hour or so from jumping in the car though, I thought it was a polite way of saying "I intend for Janis to use the scroll to frag the werewolf" if she's NPC'd any while I'm gone.

Janis is holding her position because it's where she's hitting just about every one of the bad guys with her decomposition spell, and I'm hoping eventually that will lead to the wolf way in the back going *ding* and expiring. Once the werewolves are dead though, she's got her own werewolf spell all prepped to go chow down on the caster - preferably in cheetah/dire flier form if she has time to change (because I wouldn't want anyone to get away except in a box). With the spell bonuses and shapechanging Janis should be a scary melee opponent. Of course if there's ever a way to wave the bear inside, she's going to order him in to eat something.

And that's Janis's tactical for the fight. Unless there are a lot more opponents than we're aware of, that should be enough information even if I get guilted into staying until Sunday and they keep me busy and away from a computer.

I did about 2000 miles worth of driving yesterday, but I'm back home with computer access again. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving if they celebrate it, or a nice holiday from Americans if they don't.

Happy Anniversary!

Shortly before 9PM on November 27, 2006, the first post in the IC thread was made (took me an hour to write, however). Huzzah!

Updates later today.

Does this mean we get a free level up? Hmm? Huh? Do we? Do we huh? Hmm? Yeah? Yeah?!?

No?

Drat.

Wow, didn't know it had been that long.
