[D&D 4E - OOC] zephyr : words

Anialos

Narrative would be nice, but I only see need for a map if there is serious chance of failure. Do we need to roll more checks? I don't think we know what to do next is the thing.

Denada

Yeah I'm fine without a map. I was just waiting for the next round and figured you were busy.

tastydonuts

I guess it would have helped if I put in the footer that calls for rolls too. lol... sorry! the prompt has been added! xD

if the narrative ending part of that needs more fleshing out, lmk though.

wildwood

I refuse to leave my trailer until we get a map! And craft services!

Ever more Nature!: 3#1d20+15 31 24 26

wildwood

Can the grapple things hook onto the drifts? Or do they only hook onto anchor stones like the fort has?

Denada

They can hook on to the drifts. They're attracted to the corestones at the center of every drift. They also work on corestone-powered ships.

tastydonuts

yep, Denada is right.

They won't work on the Ranstead since it's not powered by a corestone.

Denada

The Ranstead is powered by imagination.

srboyceboat

Lol. @Tofystedeth. That did not work so great for the last guy who insisted that we "watch who he soars."

Tofystedeth

There might be a reason I didn't finish the quote.

tastydonuts

Next time on Team Zephyr, World Police: Eron gets impaled by the only jagged drift in the area.

wildwood

Were we all on the same drift at the start of this turn? More importantly, was Finn on the same drift with Eron and Ousaniel?

Tofystedeth

I'm starting to run out of justifications for triple nature rolls.

tastydonuts

YEaaaaa... so I'm in training for the next two days and I had to spend Friday/Monday making sure that I don't fall behind IRL since I'm offsite and all now.

Since this is primarily a text update, I'll try and get one up soonish. THINGS SHALL GET INTERESTING! For sure.

I really hate how pressing backspace randomly sends me back a page while I'm typing...

wildwood

Just a reminder - everybody has a +5 to non-combat stealth checks right now. In case some of you are looking to 'mix it up' and try a different skill.

He says, while looking in tofy's general direction.

Tofystedeth

OH THANK GOD.

tastydonuts

OKies, who are we missing?

Anialos

Pretty sure I made my post.

wildwood

is totally not here.

Looks like we do need a post for Endaren for this latest round, @Anialos

tastydonuts

SO I AM NOT CRAZY AND THAT WAS A JEDI MIND TRICK?!

wildwood

Are those the only two choices?

Also, it probably won't matter, but Keegan gets an extra +5 on his last stealth roll.

tastydonuts

hmm... I'll push an update out a little later today, and pretend that Anialos posted for this round... o_o

Anialos

Hey! What! I totally did? Didn't I?

Anialos

Welp, egg on my face. I'd prefer hanging on till we can jump to a lower platform.

wildwood

These are not Finn's best skills, so I would also be in favor of the lower docking things. Especially seeing how much of a challenge it's been for Ousaniel to get any decent rolls...

Tofystedeth

If it doesn't involve Nature, or potentially stealth I'm agin' it.

Denada

Although Keegan would absolutely jump on ahead for the sake of jumping on ahead, he is also willing to wait with his companions so that he doesn't die when he gets there. So I guess we're waiting for the lower dock.

srboyceboat

She is carrying the bomb, guys. I mean, it kind of makes sense that she's having a hard time. I'm just saying.

Higher platform is a sneakier infiltration since it's harder to get to, so we'd have more surprise up there. That said, maybe we just play it safe and go low.

tastydonuts

I like how that is being RP'ed out. Rais can carry it a lot easier than Ousaniel. And he has wings. But you can't trust the Merkaban, right?

srboyceboat

So +4 RP bonus to athletics check? Awesome. You're a cool guy, @tastydonuts.

tastydonuts

Sorry, been kind of distracted busy rolling a fairly large rock up a hill. We'll shoot for an update featuring you guys crashing into Huxby's base and falling down to your deaths and never having your bodies be found because of the sand hurricane today.

wildwood

Speaking of rocks and fairly large hills - I'm going to be out next week for a family vacation to the grand canyon. I don't know what kind of connectivity I'll have in the hotel there, but I'll try to keep in touch. If I lag too much, I'm okay with others making Finn's move for him, or just skipping him

Be sure to give Finn a dramatic death.

tastydonuts

lol, sure.

GOTTA LOVE THOSE FIRST DRAFT UPDAETS

srboyceboat

Good line, Tof. Tarkian underfrog stuff. I lol'd.

Tofystedeth

When all else fails, make a butt joke.

tastydonuts

What the hell is the fantasy equivalent of a security camera?

Visually there's scrying lenses. Then there's various types of wards and barriers.

srboyceboat

Is there a visible scrying lens outside the door? I'd like to think asking about one indicates that she's looking for one to shoot. Because that's how someone Int 10 deals with magicumal things.

tastydonuts

I'll have to double check tomorrow, but I do believe that none of your passives beat the general DC to observe such a thing.

So you'd have to roll a check to hit the stack.

I was kinda busy today though so I couldn't get the update out. Will shoot for tomorrow
