    I can't do Tuesdays, so I'm signing up for all gigs I can do. I've very excited about the parties getting jumbled and folks disappearing for weeks, coming back to a very different status quo.

    Also, i really like the flag leader.
    It's basically you get an exp for letting me make a decision for you. Good or bad.

    Is session 4 on Friday or Saturday?

    It's Saturday on the RSVP page.

    Friday on my calendar. Go to your profile settings and put your time zone in. Should fix that

    This is what I was joking about earlier, I think you have the end time wrong?

    What I see (On EDT):

    That's weird as hell though. It is listed as 3/10 from 8:15-11

    Oh wait you are eastern. So it officially ends Saturday morning. So it carries to next day.

    PROBLEM A-SOLVE-O

    Ok, seriously? Session 2 spoilers, I guess.
    One room. One. Singular. Containing some weird non-combat crossroads demon person, granted, but still.

    What the hell kind of "adventuring" party explores literally nothing new on a delve?

    We're reading Rifts. You should too. You know you want to. Now With Ninjas!

    They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.

    If it's got tentacles, is it technically calamari?

    Those two rooms took us two hours, no one died, and we completed our job with minimal damage*, and now I'm sitting on like 121 gold. Howbow da?

    *Demon Possession and Blood Sacrifice not withstanding.

    We had at least one character level up thanks to chain failures.

    I think the winner here is pretty clear.

    I'm going to go a while between repopulating the combat areas in order to encourage more exploration stuff. Or else no session will ever get through that hallway haha

    Eventually, the floor is just going to be permanently sticky with our blood.

    Yours, theirs, who's counting?

    Working on some fun things that will happen with the traded blood and also the grumblings of the dark ones of old.

    Haha wait did those both happen to the same person?

    I, for one, blame a distinct lack of Leadership.
    I also really love the reason Zephyr Quinn just focused on the combat encounter isn't because he's a dirty sneak, its we just didn't do much and he's leaving stuff out to make the party sound more cool to prospective clients while getting to the point with the guild. Also not to be that asshole but who actually knows enough about demon possession to have the in character knowledge something is up with Jarl.

    The buying items part can bog down missions even with far less people. We had six players, two purchasing items sections, and we had to quit 30 minutes early.
    Not dissing the GMing at all, had tons of fun.

    This is sort of a learn as I go thing because I'm used to how the OG podcast folk did things and this has newer folks and people working to get together as a new team. Tweaking things every session! May just ask if anyone has business to conduct before heading out and roll from there. O just don't want people to feel underequipped I guess?

    But yeah if you guys and gals see some stumble points or things I can smooth out please let me know

    The part I bolded in the spoiler is referring to the shopkeeper, not Jarl.

    The bolded bit in your reply;
    I'm a bit confused.
    If you look at your summary again, it looks like it goes out of its way to tell the guild absolutely nothing, while telling everyone else in town how awesome the group was at fighting.
    Did something get edited out by accident? (I've done that before..)
    Did you think the job board was inside the guild hall and that's what the guild was being told? If so, why would you want the guild to go to the shows, but not advertise the shows to the people you're trying to look cool to?

    Oh I meant the line “For a more in depth recap, check out my dramatic reenactment 2 times a day! Morning service outside the Church of Menanki, and a dinner show at The Glittering Oasis!” as the ad to the guild.

    Also I really wanted to not break in-character knowledge and leave all the magic stuff to folks that actually heard or interacted with it.

    Utja knows some things. The real question is what it takes to get her to tell.

    I really like Momadin and Father Killian's journal entries--also, I'm just really loving the 'parent' veteran characters chaperoning new members through Menanki.

    Will they threaten to turn the group around? Do we get a crazy uncle next session?

    I think Killian is enough crazy for any uncle.

    Viewers Advisory: Father Killian is a trained (though unhinged) professional. The stunts he attempts are dangerous. Do not try them at home.
