BX OOC I

[dmw71]

Fixed.

Actually, what do we know about this girl? Are we new to the area? Have we met her before? Is she going to turn into a wererat when our backs are turned?

I will address this in my next update.


Also, did we lose Thofed and VonAlric?
Either way, I should be able to post again either tomorrow (Monday) or Tuesday.

[VonAlric]

Nope, I'm still here. I thought you might put up a little more content and then I would have some sort of response.

[dmw71]

I will try to move this one again tomorrow.

Hope everything is okay on your end, Dave.

Things have been a bit hectic lately, leading to the kind of clunky start here.

That said, I have been reflecting on the start of this game, and already have a few regrets, but we should be good moving forward.

A few quick notes:

1. As for the calendar and deities being used, I think I'm going to just lean on Greyhawk, but will likely introduce a fair bit of homebrew details.
2. This "lost cat in a cave" scenario is just that -- a very simple situation. I really need to get comfortable with running BX again so that will be my plan: to introduce a series of simple encounters or situations.
   
   
   * Get the characters some experience.
   
   * Get me some experience in the BX rules.

Expect more of the same, at least until the group reaches 2nd level.

Sounds like a good plan.

[Lance]

In BX 1 gp = 1 xp, so if the reward for the cat is 10,000 gp, we'll be set

In this game, 1 sp = 1 xp.

Experience Points

Experience Points
I am updating the 'Non-magical treasure' award from 1 gold piece (gp) equals 1 experience point (xp) to 1 silver piece (sp) equals 1 xp.

1 silver = 1 xp
1 gold = 10 xp
10 gold = 100 xp
100 gold = 1,000 xp
1,000 gold = 10,000 xp
Etc...

[dmw71]

Can you guys discuss/agree upon a general marching order?

[thirdkingdom]

Can we get a sound-off from all the players? I don't have a good sense if everyone is still active.

[VonAlric]

I sort of volunteered Buzar to go in front of the group to scout ahead before the torch messed up his infravision. I don't mind him being at the front unless some other more dexterous type wants to lead on.

[kalstone]

Holliss can go up front, too.

[Rex]

I think based on reply's maybe.

Buzar
Holliss
Rawani (with torch)
Little girl (with Rawani)
Arbal
Haelan

[Lance]

That's fine, I can bring up the rear.

That's good with me. It looks like everyone is active except for Thofed, who hasn't been on the site in a month. Dave, would it make sense to move his character sheet to the Ossuary?

Ha! I guess it makes sense (now) that you guys wouldn't realize this, but I deleted his private forum last week sometime.

I've actually cleaned up the 'Character Sheet' topic so just the active players. We'll save the 'Ossuary' topic for characters that meet their demise while actually participating in the game.

[dmw71]

I have a planned day off from work tomorrow, so today is going to be spent scrambling to make sure everything is in order.

The next update will likely be later tonight at the earliest, but most likely not until tomorrow or possibly this weekend.

[dmw71]

I will move this again tomorrow.

I should just accept the fact that weekends tend to be unproductive on the gaming front.

I will try to update this later today.
