Yes, Nissa is the best liar speaker. She surely can try to trick him, the problem lies in convincing him twice.

lol dw -also writing forums doesn't seem to be very active atm so all of my attention (or at least most of it) is on here now.

And Ireth, i think i figured out a way to have Batos turn out to be an elf to begin with. Anyone against the idea of an elven druid mother turning her son into a wolf pup to save his life? (still working on the back-story)

I like that idea. Nice and EPIC.

On the surface I don't have an issue with it, but why would she turn him into a pup? Why not an older wolf who could take care of himself? Was there a pack of wolves nearby who had just lost a litter, and so she gave her own son to them as a substitute? (Actually, I kinda like that idea... but then, how would she get him back?) Also, why would the change be needed in the first place?

Yes.

His father, if he's a better parent than his mother.


Couple Spat

Dad: But… couldn't you have found another way to save him?

Mom: Hide him, disguise him, turn him into a wolf… what's the difference?

Dad: Wha—which difference should I start with? There are so many—

Mom: Such as hiding is less cute than a wolf transformation?

Dad: Well, I wasn't going to mention that one. I guess he is kind of fluffy, which is cute… though not a quality I look for in a son who will continue the family name in the next generation. Or… or not. Would his pups have a surname?

Mom: You ask a lot of questions.

Dad: That's what you get for turning me into a cat. I'm curious. It turns out curiosity isn't fatal, despite the saying. I'm still compelled to find out why.

@Keitsumah I have no issues with that at all :) Sounds great.

Damn the game is slow today ehh :)

Yeah, I usually post at night. Didn't get a chance to last night, and so far I haven't even been able to grab a lunch today, so it looks like it will be another two or three hours before I can get out of here and update.

No worries at all Sp, I appreciate all your doing for us by being the GM, so take your time.
STP :)

It's just after 11 at night here though so I may well be in bed by the time you do update, if so I will post tomorrow .

Those on stairs...if you make DEX check and didn't fall down, you will reach the top of the stairs this round. Difficulty is only 1 this round, so if DEX is prime a 13 makes if; if not prime a 19 makes it.

Just did my roll, Hall made it to the top. Hope everyone else has the same luck.

Just to clarify - the DEX check is to be able to make it to the top, not to cross the gap. It's to not fall when the reptile slammed into the stairs again :) It'll take the rest of the round from where you guys are just to get to the top :)

Does that mean a failed DEX check allows for further action, such as climbing the cliff wall? Hate to drop a perfectly good sword, but… beats staying in the water!

Liadan has STR as a prime, right? No scale skill, but… hmm… uh oh. Where exactly is Liadan?

I'm curious too. Does a fall mean a splash in the sea or a faceplant into the stairs? I don't want to have Líadan bracing herself for the former if she's in no danger of taking a dip (yet!).

No, right now a failed check means you fell onto the stairs, and you'll have to get back on your feet and won't make it to the top this round. The jolt wasn't enough to send anyone into the water. You can assume it encompasses, falling, grabbing something or digging into the deck to keep from sliding, getting back to your feet etc.

Oh. Dang, I need to edit too. :/
