OOC Discussion

ok, i cant open the box, so maybe we can go kicking doors? 

Have you tried?

Kerrick is right now on guard waiting for those inside to figure out what was found in there (including trying to open the box).

He does think in general that it’s time to kick down someone’s door. If it were up to him, he’d pick the temple, but the elves are fine too.

Ah-ha, I see now that you rolled Open Locks. However, there's no visible lock to pick.

On the assumption they're already forewarned at the temple, I'd vote break down the door of the elves' cottage first.  If it's locked up now there's some chance there's something useful there, or maybe more information.

I see Koewn and Aryxmaraki voting temple, Hardrada preferring elven bungalow first, Lucasdelsur in favor of kicking down doors in general but vague on order of operations.  My vote brings it to a tie, which isn't best practice, and I'm not dead set on it anyway.  If no one else speaks up for the sylvan bed and breakfast I'll change my vote for the temple.

Sorry for the long delay in responding. Crazy busy today. Very long days of meetings for work tomorrow and Tuesday, too, so it'll probably be similar (on the site once in the evening).

 

So for anyone who is in the other game at Unseen Servant forums you may have read about computer troubles and such. I am happy to report I have a new computer up and running!

Now I just need to remember my unseen servant password…

Edit: Yeah, I think I just need to wait for the forgot password e-mail. That “stay logged in function” does not help my memory…

Happy to have you back!

I'm a bit swamped at work this week, with looong training days that went from two days this week to five this afternoon. I'll still be posting, but it is going to be only in the late evenings.

I am simultaneously disappointed and relieved that Kerrick beat Hengist to answering the question, "where's Ned?"  :/

Yes, but she looks lithe and pantherish while standing around doing nothing.

That's a definite plus. She would expect she could make a rather fetching cloak from the bundle of furs.

I successfully managed to lock myself out of the system by repeatedly making the same mistake on my password. So pretend I posted a day earlier.

Well done! I haven't managed that one in a while.

If you've removed the items from the box, please mark off on your character sheet if you're carrying one or more of them. The box itself takes up most of the space in a backpack.

What's the party's next move?

For information, it's mid-afternoon, and you have a couple hours of full daylight left. You are currently encamped at the carpenter's house, with Kerrick and Hengist outside, Cynis sitting at the doors, Miska, Aria, and Dagmar just inside the doors, Andrew, Kaul and Masov gathered round the box in the middle of the workshop, and Gwydion watching the street from the second-floor windows.

My vote is still for the Elves.

Elves

 

Elves is fine.

Given the hour, visiting the elves first may preclude getting to and/or through the temple during the day. We should have a coherent plan about what we're doing overnight - whether we meet things headon at the temple or we attempt to hole up.

I'll wait for another one or two to weigh in, then go with that, assuming it's all elves.
