stonegod's Expedition to Castle Ravenloft: Ch. I [OOC]
- Thread starter stonegod
- Start date
I will be travelling within Spain from the 31st (tomorrow) until the 9th of April. It is unfortunate timing, but that's life sometimes. It is unsure as to whether I will have internet access at all during this time.
Please feel free to NPC Ashlyn as necessary. I have included brief tactics in the sblock below for her in the current situation. If they fail then fall back on her default tactics.
[sblock=Ashlyn's tactics]Move forward cautiously, checking out the rooms on her side of the church.
- If she is not involved in combat and hasn't found any undead, then use detect undead every turn until she finds an undead, or until the group have finished checking out the church.
- If she spots any undead, then attempt to turn them and block the entrance (then use crossbow). If that fails then engage them in melee.
- If she finds her old companions and they are alive, then do whatever she can to help them survive (Sacred healing etc)
- If she finds her old companions and they are dead, then speak last rites for them (as long as she's not involved in combat)
- If she finds her old companions and they are undead, then destroy them (RP note: Ashlyn should be in a cold fury in this case) and then speak last rites for them.
- If her companions are seriously hurt and she is not in melee, then use a turn attempt for sacred healing.
Finally if something unexpected comes up, then improvise appropriately.[/sblock]

We never got into a discussion about this IC because we never heard from Kralin about his response... but do we want to use a Lesser Restoration on Sir Urik? I've been having Jarrith wanting to "save" his Lesser Restoration spell until the end of the day, figuring at some point we were going to run into some undead that would remove points from some of our frontliners' STR or CON... and that it'd be more important to restore those points than it would to restore Urik's lesser WIS score.
But with Bergeron also having the restoration spells at his disposal, we never heard from him whether he wanted to use his on Urik... or if the group as a whole wanted to choose to use Jarrith's spell on him. "Jarrith Bronns" was thinking that saving his would be more prudent, but I (DEFCON 1) has no problem casting it on Urik if the rest of the players would rather that occur. As we have two Lesser Restorations available (Jarrith's and Bergeron's), we may want to use one on Urik now or not.
Any opinions/thoughts?

As noted in the IC thread, things are goin' down.
Janis spent two AP points on the assumption she did not want to die or let Orwell die w/o a fight. Worked in one case, not in the other. Janis should still have enough Xp to be 7th.
I also spent one AP for Bergeron, but it was not enough. We will talk about potential replacements after the current problems are dealt with.

Ouch. Wow that sucked. That's the first time I've ever played a game where the DM actually killed off a familiar (and animal companion for that matter). Although we're lucky we only lost a single PC.
I'm also glad I was out of the spell's AoE, as (if the past is any indication) I would have probably rolled a big fat '1' on that save.
