Discussion Tavern: Sleeping Giant

[TD]

Dragmire is the confident hero we need.

Backup characters? Dragmire need not consider death.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Fear not, Dragmire will care for the belongings of any fallen allies

Dragmire and I are the only ones who plan on surviving

 

[TD]

Famous last words.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Famous last words.

Sildar is in my debt right now. I think he’ll try to help keep me alive


@VashTheStampede what would have happened if we chose not to follow the goblins initially and went with Tuberious to get the cart where it should go?

 

[TD]

Sildar is in my debt right now. I think he’ll try to help keep me alive

If he lives. From the sounds of things he's only got a couple hp.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

If he lives. From the sounds of things he's only got a couple hp.

I’ve got a plan as well

 

[Kutshort Yes]

 

[TD]

Well from the sounds of things - Sildar may have plot armour too which may help.



This fight is far from over though, I feel it in my loins.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

I feel it in your loins too

 

[Nac McWeeble]

Not sure there's any D&D lore that speaks to the Pursuit of Lettuce...

You should come to Stormwreck Isle, we found Lettuce!

 

[Aims'Orreh Mwuh'Bwadd]

You should come to Stormwreck Isle, we found Lettuce!

Oh yeah. I was immediately there to point it out.

 

[TD]

You should come to Stormwreck Isle, we found Lettuce!

Well we got one unconscious, if this continues at this pace - Dude may leave this cave and become for hire.

 

[Nac McWeeble]

[T'anks]

Dragmire and I are the only ones who plan on surviving

Listen. Listen.

If this were a game of wolf, I would already be dead.

Baby steps, I tells ya! Baby steps.

...And more HP. 7 MHP has not been doing me any favors.

 

[TD]

...And more HP. 7 MHP has not been doing me any favors.

Neither does rushing off by yourself then staying to fight when you're surrounded by 7 goblins.

Tomato tomato.

typing that really doesn't do it justice.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Vacation spot for a job well done

 

[T'anks]

We're gonna... need to define rushing ahead here.

I WAS SET UP. ALL THE BOMBS, ALL THE SETUP, ALL IN MY FACE.

I moved like 3 whole squares before getting ambushed by my awful Stealth check. It's not my fault looking around both corners didn't reveal the large room with Gobbies ~10 feet away!!

 

[TD]

We're gonna... need to define rushing ahead here.

rushes up the chimney
falls, Kutshort stops T'anks from breaking her heck
Dude starts up chimney, T'anks runs away
Dude comes back, heals T'anks
Hurry up let's go this way
Giant snake
Dude cuts open snake, T'anks: "don't be hasty!"
T'anks runs into goblin den
Does not flee
Unconscious

 

[Aims'Orreh Mwuh'Bwadd]

This is exactly something Aims would do.

But at least he's a barbarian.

 

[TD]

 

[T'anks]

I. But? You! I mean??

...

Okay I see how you might interpret her actions in a certain way.

In my defense they told me to roll for a random character! I'm definitely more of an unga-bunga RPG/MMO player than a mage-y type.

Which is why Get Rekt is a dumb as rocks Half-Orc Barbarian lol

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Looks like we won. I’m trying something

 

[TD]

I. But? You! I mean??

...

Okay I see how you might interpret her actions in a certain way.

...like I said, Dude and T'anks have the skills
to compliment eachother.

...if they can find a way to work together that is.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

My thinking: if we can get a safe place for a long rest, we take it. I think everyone has run out of their spell slots, and Sildar can heal. I don’t need more than a short rest maximum, so my character can stand watch. Also, we get one more ally to help us through the goblin tunnels and kill Klarg

 

[TD]

Assuming they wouldn't betray us and slit our throats as we sleep.

...they are goblins after all.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Which is why I’d stand watch and then I can wake you if he tries anything

You can multi class. Which means you can take levels in another class. You kind of level each class separately. Vash would be way better at explaining this as I have never done it. But for example, when/if you guys get to level 2, instead of going to level 2 bard you could take a level in another class. Now you do have to have a minimum stats for that certain classes. Here is a chart if that.

So for example, you could take a class in fighter because you have over 13 dex. Which opens up the fighter abilities for you.

 

[TD]

I could be wrong but I think the whole party has to commit to long rest and it has to go uninterrupted to work.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

This seems like a great way to stockpile some early level class specific stuff if you'd want it.

Hm...

 

[T'anks]

So I don't know shit about D&D.

But it's a general genre staple that Goblins get a bad rap and are actually quirky, fun-loving idiots. Socioeconomic musing, in my RPGs? It's more likely than you think!

There's still a good chance they'll slit your throat while you sleep lol

I’m cooking with flavor, make things more interesting. Vash loves that stuff

 

[Cookie Sweetmead]

Hm...

Each time you level, you'll pick which class you are leveling with.

I don't know how Vash feels, but I've always thought you should have some what of a story reason for the second class. Like why did you find a god and be a paladin all of a sudden? But I don't think this is mandatory. Like if Tanks wants to take rogue as a sub class, it could be because of Kuts influence on her. Kut being so cool and all. But your story is your own to build.

I thought Cookie taking bard class would be cool, but she doesn't have the charisma for it.

It's generally accepted that you should wait to multiclass until you've leveled enough in your primary class to unlock more of your class features.

...This is a train wreck waiting to happen with someone like me.

Well, let me work on not murdering T'anks before that's even a possible consideration first.

VASH NO YOU'RE GOING TO KILL US

DO YOU NOT REMEMBER TD'S CURSE FROM TRYING TO METAGAME

I don't personally do theorizing/planning too much OOC, so if y'all think it's a good idea... let's just say you'll have to convince Dude.

...in character.



But my last OOC bit on it...
This doesn't scream "trust him"...

 

voice tinged with a mix of cunning and greed

 

[TD]

VASH NO YOU'RE GOING TO KILL US

DO YOU NOT REMEMBER TD'S CURSE FROM TRYING TO METAGAME

HEY - DUDE IS CLEARLY TURNING A CORNER.

 

[T'anks]

I like how you say this when I literally turned a corner

And almost died for it

 

[TD]

Good thing Dude was there to heal you...

...AGAIN.

 

[TD]

@VashTheStampede
Does my 7 on healing word bring T'anks to full hp or 1hp? I read your dictionary thing and I'm slightly unsure.

 

[VashTheStampede]

Because combat has ended, it will heal her completely

 

[TD]

Because combat has ended, it will heal her completely

And to clarify - if in combat, conscious and 1hp?

 

[Kutshort Yes]

I’ll roll persuasion to try to persuade the DM

Did I roll high enough, @VashTheStampede ?

 

[T'anks]

Because combat has ended, it will heal her completely

Oh good I can ignore pushing buttons on Beyond because I didn't push any buttons after she got her shit wrecked to begin with!

I mean wait, what.

 

[TD]

Did I roll high enough, @VashTheStampede ?

No.

You need a nat100 to persuade him.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Let’s see

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Let’s see

@Christina wpuld you be so kind as to assist in convincing @VashTheStampede to allow my plan even if it violated the typical rules of a long rest?

My thinking: if we can get a safe place for a long rest, we take it. I think everyone has run out of their spell slots, and Sildar can heal. I don’t need more than a short rest maximum, so my character can stand watch. Also, we get one more ally to help us through the goblin tunnels and kill Klarg

[TD]

The death icon being the x'd eyes.



Buttons are needed it appears.

 

[T'anks]

Pushing buttons is my specialty!

Good buttons? Bad buttons? Beats me, mang.

WHICH BUTTONS DO I PRESS


I was going to write something here, but... it occurs to me that since I'm not dead yet it would probably be a good idea to have T'anks do it instead.
