Why not. Where and how is he?

Thanks, Sarron would probably have died if left on A.I. for that much time.

Where? Not the slightest idea. Anonymity of the internet does that kind of thing to you.

How's he doing? Compromising illness, won't be on Bay12 for a month or two.

Let me rephrase that.
Where and how is his character?

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

Griffin-Human
Flying over wreckage.
Wielding Adamantine Claymore. Wearing torn leather trousers.
Unharmed.
Speaks Common. Mighty. Competent Two-handed Use. Flight. Magic Resistance. Ice Magic Weakness. Pleasantly Warm.

Or─for more convenience─he is flying around in circles over a two acre area filled with massive stones, a few creatures walking on it, and ringed on all sides by chasms.


I think those cover it. Any more info needed and I can fill in whatever blanks there may be. Actually, scratch the warmth. High-altitude winds are by no means pleasant or warm.

Turn Twenty Six


Players:

Grek
Quote
Put tube over mouth.
Breathe fire
See if I made a rocket.

{3} Grek takes the tube and lines it up with his mouth, he starts breathing a small amount of fire through it. The recoil is surprising! It destabilizes Grek {2} and he falls to the ground.

Klaus
Quote
See if I can use rock to chip away at the rock surrounding the dirt. If so, do so. If not, try to put my leg back.

{2} You find a loose bit of rock around the size of your hand. The dirt patch is beyond your reach without moving, so you try to shove your leg back into socket. You steel yourself, and with a forceful shove {4} it slides back into place, you grit your teeth and resist the urge to scream.

Gragrar
Quote
Continue towards the voice I believe to be Arken's.

{N/A} You make progress, but are stopped when you come across one of the new gorges, unsure of how to proceed.

Unknown Human
Quote
Point out the light to the others

{N/A} You point ahead toward the pile you saw the light on, and call back to the group scavenging behind you, "What's that?!"

Valentine
Quote
Practice that psychic shout.

{1} Valentine tries to call on that same volume he commanded before. Instinct told him to take a deep breath, but lack of lungs, lips, or a diaphragm killed that idea. Valentine then sent a mental signal at the highest "volume" he could manage, which was a slight "eep".

Ynot
Quote
DRAG THE BEAR TO THE VILLAGE, LOGIC BE DAMNED

{1} You try to pull Geoff back to the village, but you lose your grip. Polar bears are heavy.

Sarron
Quote
Follow Grek

{N/A} Ya' did it.


NPCs:

Arken
Quote
Return of the Dorf

{N/A} Arken limps up to a rock near the center of the plateau. "Well? Ya' asked me here. Show yerself!


Flora and Fauna

Geoff

{5} Geoff lunges at the eel that had finally gotten out of his fur, Geoff feels the lizard's throat between his teeth. {4v1} Geoff bites down, and wrenches his head back, tearing out Ynot's larynx, trachea, and ripping three major arteries. This polar bear likes the taste of reptile.


Spot/Listen Check:
{1} The other's are all busy with something or other, but Valentine would have to be deaf to not hear the disproportionately loud call of Arken. The prodigal dorf returns.

In case you're wondering, read the acronyms on those rolls─The numbers themselves─, that sums up my opinion of the Ynot situation pretty well. I believe you have one turn left at that level of blood loss until death.

F*ck. New poll incoming. Possible controversy incoming. I'm going to go have a cinnamon roll.

I'm not going to express an opinion on the poll, I'm just curious as to your takes on this. I'll leave it to you─and, if a tie, the dice─on this one.

Move to the dirt and chip away at the rock near the dirt patch.
Minus one to movement rolls eh? Guessing that's for dodging and such then. Also, how long will it last?

Reincarnation....Program? What?
It's fancy fancy talk for:
Quote
Let people who's characters have already fought and died─or died in ways that are not fighting. I'm not picky─return with different characters. Once.

It's basically just me having a blind stab in the dark for a way to keep the RTD, which is rapidly losing players and with even more increasingly fatal challenges to come, from dying off via eventual TPK. The original ideas were this, or spontaneously bless half the party with mediocre healing magic. But something tells me that would be painfully annoying to make reasonable and too effective. Death would be impossible.


Ugh, writing that spiel feels like I'm giving up. Must. Find. Creative. Way....

Probably one or two turns. Depending on how soon I remember to remove it. Hero Recuperation is always impressive.

Eels are fish.

That said...
Grek: Perfect fire-breath-tube-jetting technique while coming up with a better name for it.
Sarron: Hear the bear and fly over to it.

Forcing myself into combat during a streak of bad rolls was a pretty silly idea. Well, here's hoping the GM action here will allow me to go out in a blaze of glory...

Focusing his life energy, Ynot will channel a slap directed at the face of Sithis.

"GET OVER HERE YOU LAZY BASTARD, YOU'RE NEEDED FOR ONCE"

Sithis? I know of that name as a literal Father of Death.
So, slap a hyper-powered, metaphysical, demigod, grim reaper and force him to make insane shit happen around you. I can do that.

Is it too late to join?

EDIT: I don't think it is so:

Name: Hex
Race: Stone Golem shaped in the likeness of a dwarf

If not, add me to a waiting list
