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

[Stormwind]

I had to re-read it. Its like detect evil but only requires one round of concentration to find undead. I can use the detect evil table of the detect undead table---your choice.

I think I'd prefer for you to use the 'detect evil' table ... it doesn't narrow things down so much and will make it harder for Ashlyn to pinpoint the strength of the undead, ... and then if something shows as strong (9-20HD) or overwhelming (21HD+), then I know without doubt that we're in trouble

 

[Stormwind]

Off to a good beginning with Ladreth, a failed Fort Save at +12 and rolling a 2 and 1 on his first attack rolls. Good to get it out of the way early.

By the way, SG, Ladreth is still using his MW Greatsword, for the now, so he's attacking at +14/+9 2d6+9, or 2d6+11 against Undead.

Good to get the crappy rolls out of the way to start with

At the moment, the greatsword is with the other equipment on Ashlyn's mount. I think that as soon as we are out of these tunnels, that Ashlyn will initiate the RP such that Ladreth gets the sword (since it might be a little difficult to fit a large horse down here)

What about the poor ghast? I know he was undead, but still, his family would be crushed. We should take him and have him raised.

Ashlyn's vote is to burn the ghast's body .... burn, burn, burn .... she's been doing quite a bit of that already - small wonder that she's not an arsonist .... speaking of which ... hmmm ... <evil grin> ... I guess she can dispose of the undead immediately

I think it might be more appropriate to stand down the entire village over the remains and have the "Do you know this man, and who among you had anything to do with why he was trying to eat our brains? YOU VIL TALK!!!" discussion.

Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the Ghoulish Party?

"You're burning these creatures?!? Frankly I am aghast!"

"No no... I'm not 'a ghast'... I'm 'aghast'! Get that torch away from me! No! No! ARRGGGHH!!! It burns! It burns!"

meetings all day, updates late.

James: FYI, I looked into something that was bugging me---that Storm Bolt did not have a save (it should as it doesn't have an attack role). Its appears Customer Service and the (pending) errata agree. Wanted to give you the heads up.

 

[James Heard]

*shrug* I thought it was strange too...but it's been such a pain to work around the line effect and the short range so far that I was hoping it was simply the bonus for fragging things this way.

 

[s@squ@tch]

That's good news for Ladreth, hopefully he can make his save.
