We’ll skip you this round.

Ivan is up.

So after tomorrow I’ll be on a 6 day kayak trip, I probably won’t be able to run combat. If someone wants to work the bad guys for the rest of the encounter that would be great. I trust you guys to do that well and keep the group busy while I’m gone.

[Nish]

HA! thats funny. We are leaving in the morning for 4 days of camping in the Adirondacks!

I'll do another post when appropriate for Gudgeon.

Want to post AC, HP and basic attack info for the redbrands so that people can role for them while you are gone?

Here is the stat block. It probably won't let you see it unless you're logged into the campaign.

[Rainmaker]

Psyched for my turn!! I'll write it up shortly, when I get home.

[DavidBoren]

Eric is unfamiliar with being struck by manufactured weapons. As a hermit, he rarely gets into altercations with other people. He is much more accustomed to dealing with wild animals and the occasional scratch from a badger or a bear.

The deep, clean cut of his wound burns as a reminder of the dangers of breaking Stealth. The trickle of blood tickles, and makes Eric smile through the pain. His mind is sharp and focused, fueled by adrenaline, time almost seems to slow down. He sees every bit of his surroundings in immaculate detail.

Eric feels alive, Eric is loving life.

Edit: I don't know how to exactly extrapolate the arbitrary concept of hit points into real life, but Eric just took 3hp of damage and has 24hp total. He has been decimated by the very definition of the word. I don't know what 10% of my life is, but it is probably not a small ordeal.

Most people would be NPC Commoners, I personally have a few levels in Gunslinger. Lol. Either way, being stuck by a sword is no joke.

Eric Withakay might be a crazy person for actually enjoying this.

[Rainmaker]

I know it's not my turn, but Ivan was just itching to roll an inconsequential Nat1.

[DavidBoren]

Is it my turn?

Eric is gunna shoot sumptin... how many Redbrands are left?

Is Maxi still playing the Saxophone? If not, Eric shoots him. No. J/K.

We should leave at least one Redbrand alive for "questioning"... the rest of the bodies will be looted and thrown into the chasm/fed to the abomination... if front of the survivor.

[mtaylor]

I have a couple more days before I will have a computer in front of me and can roll dice again, but you guys are doing great.

[DavidBoren]

No worries.

I am kind of a capitalizing, usurping, undermining, dirty cheating, scumbag... and any time that there is a lull in the action, I always ask if it's my turn... just in case someone says yes. Lol.

My buddy and I play Heroclix and I will ask him if it's my turn any time he stops to think about his next move... distraction tactics.

[mlzplayer111]

Sadly guys i dont think i can do this anymore. My buddies are chewing up all my time with actual dnd (what monsters) and somehow during quarantine i could not keep up with the campaign.

Might join the next one, thanks for letting me try it.

Ps: Maxi the tabaxi is my go to character now. Love him.

[mtaylor]

All good. We are in a bit of a re-shuffle anyway.

For the current situation, I think Ivan should make a move and we will be out of combat, then the new guys can turn up.

[Rainmaker]

Redbrand #3 turns and throws a single dagger toward Maxi. NAT20! It hits the gooseneck of the saxophone and neatly servers it in two. Heartbroken, maxi returns to his homeland to repair his beloved instrument.

Fairwell, good sir. It was awesome having you in the campaign.

[DavidBoren]

Noooooo... not the Saxoflute!

The sound of the dagger ripping through the polished brass sends shivers down Eric's spine. A noise he will not soon forget, like the dying words of a good friend. His eye twitches with building rage.

Goodbye, Sir Maxi, the talented Tabaxi... you will be missed. (And your Saxoflute will be AVENGED!)

[DavidBoren]

What Gudgeon sees of Eric Withakay is probably discomforting...

The hood of my half-cape has fallen down to my shoulders, exposing my Mohawk and $#!+-eating grin. I still lord over the body of Redbrand #2, dripping my blood onto his body. My red blood dripping down my bronze skin shows contrast to the green and khaki clothing that I wear. The wound on my left arm clearly visible below the edge of my cape... blood drizzling down then dripping off my elbow.

I still have my bow at full draw, but make sure to keep it pointing into the cave while I address Gudgeon.

[DavidBoren]

When I talk about holding my bow and arrow in one hand, it is something akin to this:

[mtaylor]

Someone make me a wisdom/insight check.

[Nish]

Insight check: 1D20+5 = [17]+5 = 22

[Rainmaker]

Someone make me a wisdom/insight check.

Wisdom check for Ivan: 16
