Trixip almost suggested Ana, too.

:D

If I'd posted after, Francis would've nominated Ana - partially out of spite, and partially because I thought we'd rely on Ana's Cloak of Elvenkind and Hide skill instead.tongue

Why would we want to attack the diggers? Now I'm tempted to use Detect Magic... or maybe Charm Person, but that's in one slot.

I think I'll tweak the spell slots for the next day...

Wait, what necromancer?

Two things:

  • I used the word 'honest' for a reason.
  • I think the necromancer is Shapur or something... The guy who killed the raiders...

Sorry to confuse you, that was more or less to throw the miner's off what we're doing. It was a lie, there is no necromancer, but we can't just go round telling strangers our business, can we?

Yeah, true. I planned to use Ghost Sound to fool the men, since their looking around seems shady...

But the question: Why would the miners attack? Or shall I Detect Magic?

Only Cautious Guy is looking around, and that's because not so many people travel alone in the Big Rubble, so when Ms. Personality suddenly popped up, he was expecting her to be a distraction from an ambush.

I wish you the same, SKJAM! And Merry Christmas/Hanukkah/Winter Holiday to everyone.

Also, posting now. I smell quest.

I should be able to get back to my regular schedule in about two days' time.

Either Trixip or Francis should be able to use Locate Secret Doors if needed, although I don't know how useful it'll be in this case, and it'll take a day to prepare. Either one should also be able to cover for Detect Thoughts.

Awaiting reply from GM: we'll decide what the party wants to do after. I'm fine with anything.

I might be busy with various games for a bit. Don't worry, I'll be able to post.

The dice are just not with Mono'a, it seems.

And yes, it's a normal wild hare.

Now the upcoming bridge crossing...that might be a teensy bit more difficult.

Eh, Masked - it was the monk. Trixip didn't do anything.

EDIT: Neither did Grax. Sigh. I've been failing all my OOC spot-checks recently. *facepalm*

Trixip is a gnome. Grax is the goblin.

Mono'a is human.

Ana Failed a Spot Check

Speaking of which, Heath hasn't posted in a while.

Sent Savage Heathen a PM.

After two "harmless" random encounter rolls, you folks finally tripped a danger flag.

Okay, I propose the following plan.

As suggested in-character:

Step 1: Nearly everyone's likely to have better Perception than Francis, so they should use it and get a rough estimate of the number of bandits present and if there are any archers hidden. Trixip's owl familiar should be helpful as well. EDIT: Forgot Elail's eagle. That helps too.

Next steps would be:

Step 2: If there's still insufficient indication as to their intent or numbers, Francis will cast Detect Thoughts if within range for the maximum number of rounds. Should the spell succeed, this will allow the party to find out those details.

Step 3: If hostile (most likely), prepare ranged attacks and spells as required, and get a pre-emptive attack off.
