Quietus Clarion (OOC)

[Jester]

I expanded upon it some. It may not have been clear originally.

[Gabboge]

Should I just jump in? I have tonight and early morning tomorrow. After that I'm on the road.

[Doomed Hero]

Go ahead. Give me a synopsis of the bridge mission, how you got injured, and something about just barely hearing the rumble in the distance and seeing Blanket trying to figure something out.

You can't see the wagon, you don't know what's going on. All you can see is a rising dust cloud from the direction of Upper Camp.

[Le Noir Faineant]

Introducit ogrum.

If Rashy doesn't take me, another way to enter may well be Blanket stopping to examine if Rocylo is friend or food.
But I don't want to get ahead of myself.

[Gabboge]

I'll leave this up to skill checks to see if Clouse can make any sense of this. He is probably got a lot going against him. He has an obstructed view and is in pain.

[Le Noir Faineant]

Hey, Doomie, did you just NPC me?

[Doomed Hero]

dont think so. I just described you and your group getting to the top of the hill to look around. Did it seem like I was NPCing you?

[Le Noir Faineant]

No, just wasn't sure if there wasn't another ogre around, by chance. Like, a tribesman I can steal CLOTHES from.
Would make me, uhm, less hanging in the wind, ifyaknowwhatimean.

It's 7 AM here, and I am on holiday. Watching Game of Thrones. I think Blanket should get a Shae.

[Doomed Hero]

Ogre sized clothes are a little rare, but you do have a blanket. You could easily tie it around your waist like a sarong.

An ogre sized hooker might be a little harder to come by.

[Le Noir Faineant]

Or, I could wear it as a cape. Like Batman!

...For decency's sake, I probably shall not.

[Doomed Hero]

Blanket, the description of Clouse giving orders too quickly to follow is just there because Clouse is on vacation and isn't able to give orders himself. I figure between the OOC complications and the fact that in game Clouse is pretty badly hurt, you're pretty much left to your own devices.

You have a large covered wagon pulled by two boro (think oxen with elephant-style front-facing tusks) charging down a narrow mountain pass at you. Have fun.

Rashgar, Your first shot hits a Boro in the flank. It's hurt, but doesn't slow noticeably. Go ahead and describe it.

Xein, Your first shot misses the boro, but still hits the wagon just under the driver's seat.

[Doomed Hero]

Rash'gar- The gorge is 70 feet across that puts you at a distance of about 80 feet. The odds of hitting the boro in the eye are slim. Do you want to go for it?

[Jester]

Yeah. What the heck. The shadow sometimes smiles on his chosen ones.

[Luiniel Blades]

Since you are trying for something fairly difficult, the shadow might smile a little broader if you were to burn an action point.  Xein will continue to fire as normal.

[Jester]

Good Idea. I read through the Action Point system but was still not sure I could.

DH I will burn an action point to try.

[Luiniel Blades]

As a general rule you can spend an action point whenever you feel your character needs to do something and will effectively roll a d20 to add 1d6 outcome.  The extra uses are also pretty useful, especially the activate class ability, which will be entirely more useful for us at 4th level.  Also just occurred to me that you should have your action points at maximum for our level.

P.S. Not sure if Role call is meant for the villians as well but here.

[Doomed Hero]

Nope, it's really just for good guys. Yours is coming up though.

[Doomed Hero]

A text message conversation with Gabboge (Clouse) came up with that little gem. I'm still laughing about it.

[Gabboge]

OK I'm back. Managed to get from Texas to California in a day and a half with a visit to the grand cannon. Thanks for handling my posts DH!

[Johanas]

I have Roycilo's next few posts already written out. Once Blanket responds to Clouse, I'll post the next one. Didn't want you to think I'd forgotten, but I'm excited to see Blanket's response. Once that plays out, I'll shift it back to Roycilo for a minute.

[Le Noir Faineant]

Sorry, was traveling. Will respond later today.

[Johanas]

That's fine with me. I think you were given a great set-up, and I'm just eager to see what happens.

[Le Noir Faineant]

Ah, sorry, hadn't seen that the game really hadn't advanced since then. My bad.

[Doomed Hero]

Woah there big fella.

Reading your post it sounds like you're planning on leaping onto/into the wagon. Is that right?

If so I need to make some rolls.

When performing actions it's best to leave them open-ended. Give me your intentions and I'll make the rolls and tell you the results.

[Le Noir Faineant]

Yeah, I thought Blanket could try to catch the blanket - not necessarily crushing the wagon, but more like, smashing himself against it.

Sorry if I precipitated myself - I didn't mean to anticipate the action, but rather thought to describe the side effects of an ogre
ramming into something, even if he doesn't get too far with his action. ...
