Development Journals and Discussion / ((Tumble 8 + 13 = 21;
« on: April 30, 2017, 10:38:11 pm »

((Tumble 8 + 13 = 21; Concentration 20 + 27 = 47; to add she has nimble movement feats such as dodge and mobility if that helps.  Her caster level is 12 and she is an enchantress with the spell penetration feat.  even though Tumble should cover the initial roll she makes I also decided to log back in to add a dex check as it was mentioned for nimble actions: Dex 17 + 3 = 20))

Lia deftly attempts to roll out of the way to get on her feet as well as out of Ausire's line of attack.  If Lia gets out of the way she will instinctively begin casting Hold Monster on Ausire, hoping the momentum of Ausire's charge throws her off balance to give Lia time to complete the spell.

Rumour Has It / ((I definately don't want any
« on: April 28, 2017, 07:36:49 pm »

((I definately don't want any personal CDQ things to be set as Round Robin events as CDQ's take time and planning and are meant as clear development goals for that character, or in other words, your own special single player story event, so it seems selfish to try and have that as a round robin.  From my understanding of Round Robins, when its your turn you chose the event based on what you (or preferably your character) wants to do, but is not tied to be specific to that character, instead more of an adventure that like minded adventurers run around and enjoy some time together (emphasis on the last as I see it mostly as a day we all agree to go online together and enjoy some group play).))

As everyone goes their seperate ways Lia takes Audira (sp?) to Ferrit's and begins trying to establish a routine. ((will be starting an RP thread with Serrisa on that one soon.))  As a couple months pass and Lia feels comfortable with how the situation is developing, she begins to spread word to those who wish to join her again on Belinara to help keep the roads safe as well as free slaves.

« on: April 28, 2017, 07:12:36 pm »

for some strange reason I thought it was not my turn this week, but next week instead.

I'll do another Belinara run then to kill raiders and free slaves from slavers, then see where that takes us.  I think I never left Fort Miritrix from the last round Robin, so lets start there.

I also noticed the server is offline at the moment.  Will it affect the duration of the adventure if we start at 6pm pst (9pm est) vice 5pm

« on: April 19, 2017, 09:55:10 am »

Thank you!  You should find me online every now and then doing crafting runs usually.  I'm almost on every Fridays Round Robin as well.  I stopped playing here in about 2006 and decided to have a peak in after so many years and now I'm playing a recreation/continuation story of my main character.

« on: April 17, 2017, 06:30:27 pm »

So I arrive home after being away visiting family over Easter and plug my laptop in only to have the AC Adapter blow right when I plug it in.  Soooo... might take a bit before logging in game in the near future.

             With her book open, Lia sits contemplating on an all too familiar log, now imprinted with her signature butt groove.  Her continued exposure to this reminiscent lifestyle presents itself prominently upon her.  She no longer looks battered or bruised and the aforementioned humility can still be seen on her face and hair, but now the materials she exhibits are of some of the finest linens.  Demonstrating fine silks and velvets intricately stitched with silver threads might have the generic onlooker perceive her differently as was months ago with her old sailing garb.  One must also not forget the jewelry and fine weaponry now displayed on her person; if not for the fact that her wardrobe was tailored for both comfort and practicality, and that she still does not exhibit any make-up combined with a lacking desire to correct her disheveled hair, one might have expected her to be a prude (such as things once were so long ago).

            Looking completely relaxed to the untrained eye, a more cognizant observer might notice an undeniable readiness in her posture.  While peering within the turning pages she carries a derisive smile coupled with a deceivingly inviting demeanor.  When reaching the first blank page of her sizable book, she gracefully handles her quill and observes the sky in thoughtful reflection before writing.

            As to be expected, that first run in with Daniel would not be my last.  Through a variety forest trampling, dungeon delves, and

            She pauses briefly with a wry expression.

            trap triggerings, I learned that he comes from a rather large family of adventurers and traders who began a sort of adventuring outfitters guild called Angels.  The irony of this chance meeting delves even deeper when I met the Guild’s head (at least I believe she is at its head), who was no other than Ferrit Pandorn herself.  A face from the past whom I assisted considerably when she was young in experience and now proposes, essentially, a 180 of that same position.  Her prowess on our expedition showed more than a simple proposition of changing roles, to be honest.  She recognized me as should be expected, she did live with me after all and at the time I was the aloof one.  Still, it took long enough to have me wonder how the rumors of my death became exposed as fallacy to my enemies.

           Perhaps it is my pride that had me refuse her offer for room and board as I had once provided her.  This log and the dirt are getting no more comfortable and I’m growing weary of the act of soliciting for a bed.  I’m also finding it harder to both work and profit at my trade with such little room to store the required materials.  An intelligent person would take her offer and yet here I sit uncomfortably as I reminisce on the friends I’ve made.


           Lia then stares at the fire in contemplation, gently caressing the scar on her neck.

           I should apply that word with greater care, or more appropriately, choose those whom it applies with serious prudence.  I now know what I am capable of in fulfilling my damaged perspectives and so much harm came simply by letting others in.

           She briskly moves to the next paragraph, perhaps to leave behind the thoughts she just noted.

           So it turns out Ferrit is Daniel’s mother or is it, mother-in-law?  I guess it must be the latter as I am sure I would have met him as a child, but I was aloof.  I learned that he has a son whom I met not through Daniel, but on another adventure.  Charlie is his name and with a personality that readily challenges the incisive wit within me.  I honestly take pleasure in our bouts and I hope he is dignified enough in character to find amusement in them as well.  In spite of his talk about a Delair priestess who has made him swoon, I can’t help but speculate that he fancies me only to have his desire at a crossroads in reference to our respective species.  If I didn’t know better I would assume he was Aeridinite the way he talks.

           Snickering, she thinks, ‘His loss and it only adds fuel to our much-anticipated debates.’

           He is skilled in combat though and I find myself watching him scrupulously to learn from his art; when I’m not blasting him along with our opponents with fireballs.  I should really talk to him about this arson lust that leads to desiring the fire’s touch upon his person.  On many accounts, this reminds me of another whose proposed aid was challenging to my ego.  Going by Sibbicai, this Archmage, who also delights in flame, helped me traverse well-guarded territory for supplies and errands.  What startled me, however, was his proposal to tutor me in the arcane.  I kept face, but could not help but think the audacity to think of me a mere apprentice.  It was a few days later that I realized I was the haughty one.  His instructions would be a nice refresher and would possibly help me repopulate my spellbook, but in my experiences, such things can come with a price.  What are his motivations to train me?  What does he expect of me as a wizard?  I’ve been well established long before he started to read and so he might find himself disappointed with certain expectations not being met if his instructions are more subjective than the intricacies of Al’noth.

         Another powerful and quite intelligent, if not extraordinary, wizard I’ve grown accustomed to is Armand.  A human who refers to himself as a Gnuman, a gnomish half-human experiment?  This is quite possible given the fickle nature of gnomes as well as their general mastery of Al’noth and other scientific ventures.  Witnessing this spectacle leads me to desire to learn their tongue and I believe I could trick Armand to help me free of charge as well.  While I did say intelligent, I never meant in social occurrences.  He is incredibly naïve and distrait, misconstruing most conversations; an unfortunate affair for him as he is quite handsome otherwise.

         Through a


         Another pause leaves a more bewildered expression on her face before continuing.

         unique experience with Armand I ran into another old acquaintance from long ago.  Connor Garvall.. Garvail… Garvel??  Conner!  A sorcerer of old who joined with me in the Arcane Alliance when it was first formed.  Back then I found him to be calculating and level-headed; odd traits for a sorcerer and yet perfect for one of his capabilities.  I would guess him to be a formidable force now if my prior observations are correct, which they appear to be with exception to an impressive capacity toward impassive humor.  Unless he is actually serious?

         Lia looks up briefly with a wide grin, excitedly finishing her calligraphy.

         Humour, the euphoria to my heart and being and yet a feature so wrongfully removed and replaced with a heart of stone and bile.  I also met a Halfling of old who presents herself as Chimes, likely in the portrayal of the bells on her person.  I later learned her name was actually Acacea a name I recognize, but vaguely.  Still, she reminds me of Ozy, but friendlier and as expected, with humor.  Perhaps my draw to her is the wealth of knowledge she possesses.  Indeed, as much as the bard of old, I believe I will come to her often for advice and rumination, but most of all, she laughs at my attempts of humor.  It is comforting to know that after all the trauma both transmitted and received, the cruelty and dreary nature of this profession, and the persistent issues of my being that continue to haunt me this very day.  Someone can still laugh at my minor quips.

         Lia then closes her book and stands on that final thought of jubilation.  Holding her book close to chest she leaves the area with a gleaming expression on her face.

« on: April 15, 2017, 11:34:11 am »

((I just remembered a few players saying at the end, "lets carry this on another day."   Which I interpret as freeze frame until we can schedule something together.  I agree in that this should not continue as a round robin, but instead continue as a CDQ slot.  I wrote down some good tidbits of information that I would like the character to explore as well as see how Lia will now develop her relationship with the slave after Vrebel told the slave to follow and do as Lia says.  (Though on a side note I might propose more bandit and slave raiding excursions throughout Belinara during my turn on the RR.)

I would prefer to have our characters carry on our separate ways until a better plan is drawn out or until another excursion if that happens.  Which would have Lia bring the slave to Ferrit's for some further forum RP and of course the character moving forward with her plans instead of being in a time stop limbo, heh.  I just want to know what the others involved think as some mentioned as per stated above.

((At the end of this event I know everyone talked about carrying on another day.  Is that still going to happen or should we carry on our separate ways until a better plan is established?  I have a few ideas for later and have some intent to start an in forum CDQ from this.  Please let me know how the rest of you involved want to carry this forward before I move forward with those plans.))
