Yes you can act this round.

I was trying to be funny, I guess I failed my performance check. [emoji53]

 

[JustinCase]

Thanks both! I'll put my action in.

 

[Shayuri]

Hehe, sorry for the absences. I don't PLAN to be away, I swear...

 

[Herosmith14]

Gah! Sorry about being MIA for a while. Between the Academic season and the impending Holy Week, my schedule has been PACKED and I've barely had time to sleep. I'll try to be more regular in the future.

What is this referring to?

"You see! You see! She thinks she better than us! This... this...ratcatcher!" Carroc continues his impotent rage. U'Tempei's words do seem to upset the crown a little as a few start to grumble but most of the villagers seem content to let strangers risk their life.

I don't recall her saying anything that could even remotely be construed as her being better than someone else, especially when she was talking quietly to her companions not announcing to the world that they should get moving. She would never think let alone say something like that.

We rushed away too fast for her to confront him again.

 

[Shayuri]

Arcata screwed up her persuasion check, which I stated in my post was because she came off as being haughty.

She did address the crowd at one point.

I don't think he's referring to U'Tempei's words, but rather Arcata's.

 

[jmucchiello]

Ah, your post is further back. That's why I missed the connection.

 

[TallIan]

As Shaiuri said, it was mainly aimed at [-]U'Tempei[/-] Arcata. I was also trying to portray Carroc as an arrogant *^!# without just saying it.

Sorry if I cut out anything you wanted to add by moving things along. I find PbP hard to pace. You are not far from town if anyone wants to go back.

 

[jmucchiello]

Huh? U'Tempei didn't say anything about being better than anyone. (She'd slit her own throat first.) I hope you meant Arcata.

 

[TallIan]

Dammit, I keep getting those two characters mixed up in my head. Yes I meant Arcata.

Arcata's roll was low but Carroc's was lower. Also people don't need a lot of persuading to NOT run towards danger.
