Okay, thanks. I'll sub in the (N)PCs as needed. I'm working on a larger update, but have been tied up today. Should be tonight.
Gwydion is out of Schlitz. I will support whatever, but if we investigate these guys, I have no magic nor will I have any tomorrow.
I vaguely recall this matching a description of something we learned about earlier. At a time when it is not some horrible hour of the morning I’ll go look for it.
I'll give it a bit of time today, but it sounds like a consensus is building to watch without approaching.
I'm likely asleep. Though if Kaul's feeling particularly suicidial he could try following them if he can get out of our barricades without making a load of noise.
How thoroughly did we barricade the ground floor? Would it be reasonable for Kerrick to go out and have it barricaded up behind him?
(I’m thinking I should get mounted up, in case we need speed, and if they attack the building I can flank-charge.)
Next time I'll have to judge the roof so I don't defenestrate myself. :)
You could. You could also climb out the back and down the palisade.
Nothing beats a good defenestration.
Gwyddion is resting unless someone wants an extra set of eyes. Totally okay with helping, but then it’s no spells. Let me know: he can probably stir up some trouble between Mystic Aura and mimicry.
Dunno if the casters got rested or not? Guess this proves the value of the Wakefulness proficiency.
Kerrick has a lance, yes? A charge to break them up? I'd suggest a few volleys of whatever but we don't know who's in the sack - maybe we can get them to drop it.

You'd guess it's somewhere between the 9th and 10th bell, so no.
Kerrick does not have a lance, but a spear charge is almost as good.
If shenanigans are in order, G does not want to miss the fun. Looking at the map, it seems there are multiple avenues by which we can approach them. As an old boss loved to say, defeat of the enemy follows his engagement by multiple forms of contact from multiple directions: we need to at least attempt the multiple directions part of that.
Hey folks...just wanted to pop in to apologise for the delay. Dealing with an ill family memeber the last few days. I should be able to post again late tonight or tomorrow morning. Again, my apologies.
I feel like I'm all aplogies. There's a song lyric in there somewhere...
I'm slightly at sea somehow, even with the map. Can Hengist reach the silent group with a charge? With a non-charge move and still attack?
No, he can't reach them with a charge, as they are not in line of sight. I'll do up a map this afternoon so we're all on the same page.
how many round did it take me to climb to that roof?
That's a really excellent question, actually...I had to go and calculate Kaul's Encumbrance when I originally worked out the climb, so I could figure out where the group the party was pursuing would be when he made it to the top. I made a couple assumptions:
- Kaul left his spear and 10' pole behind at the cottage
- His Encumbrance without those is around 6 stone, giving him MV 90' (30')
- He didn't carry his dog, Cynis, up the wall with him (meaning Cynis is on the ground where Kaul began his ascent)
- Kaul can ascend ~1 story per round, taking a bit less than 30 seconds to reach the roof
I would also ask that you add your current Encumbrance and Movement to your Character Sheet so it's easy to look up.
