I really want this DMG to be awesomefor both newbies and vets ...but I figure onebor both will have issues.


Was swamped at work last night so not online much, will push things forward today.

Talk about getting swamped at work...
I am afraid, I cannot post regularly, so I guess I'm out. It is 23:50 over here and I just arrived home and will fall dead in my sleeping cave in a second.
I don't want to delay you guys. I'll be sure to read all about your escapades, but I think it is better for all if I do just that.

Home from work... tomorrow's my day off woot woot. How's everyone doing?

I've got a response ready to Anti's last post but did anyone else what to say anything? I've been a bit busy with end of the fiscal year stuff but its been a bit since anyone posted IC as well. Everyone still here?

Awww man. I'd hate to see ya go, we were just getting things rolling. Was looking forward to seeing Raphael in action.

I'm still here. Just waiting on the response to Anti's last post.



Dang, that sucks. I was also looking forward to seeing Raphael in action. Take care man.

Are Haldar and Rhasta remaining in the trees or at this point are people moving forward across the clearing?

Also, a few notes about the area:
-The briars and thickets are difficult terrain and slow movement.
-The stream is about a foot deep but not too deep to slow movement
-The light from outside allows you to see about 10 feet into the cave once you get close enough.

I'm mainly just waiting to see who else posts, and also scanning for traps/danger in the clearing.

I could also roll Perception but I think the two rolls already have got it.

How far away are we from the cave entrance, BH?

Aye, there were two perception rolls already but being still back on the trail and a hundred feet away there was nothing of interest to see, hence asking if people were moving forward. From the treeline you notice no traps nor hear any signs of goblin activity. I'll fluff that into another IC post responding to Rhasta / Haldar.

Oh, sorry, I should have seen that.

I go blind.

Is that why you dont read things in my descriptions?

No, that's just my defiant nature.

And you're proficient in Nature too...

Still waiting on Xacktasti and FeebleMeltdown to roll Initiative. Its been about 24 hours so I'm gonna catch up on my other stuff and if they haven't posted then I'll roll for them so we can get the next combat started.

Rhasta : 18
Obed : 14
Tomi : 8
Haldar : 8
Damon : 7
Goblin : 5

Initiative Order
- The Party
- The Baddies

The fight will begin with a surprise round but only Rhasta is not surprised and currently sees where the enemy is. So the turns will be Rhasta > Goblin > Entire Party > Goblin , etc.

The goblins are currently hiding in the thicket and crouched down providing them with 3/4 cover please keep that in mind when attacking through the thicket. The bushes are difficult terrain and take double movement to move through.

I'm extremely sorry everyone. I've been FAR too busy this whole week with finding another job and the two times I remembered that I had a D&D game to post in I just completely forgot. I'll get to the IC immediately and see what there is for me to post :c

@FeebleMeltdown

Initiative has been called for a currently its the surprise round, as detailed above currently all save for Rhasta are suprised and thus only he will be acting during the first round. You can of course use your post to retcon having been sneaking along with Obed and Rhasta or what not but technically you'll have no actions during the first round. FYI.


Kinda hoping to hear whether Damon and Haldar were keeping pace with Rhasta, moving along the path towards the mouth of the cave, still hanging back in the trees, or what...

Sorry guys. Between getting married on Saturday and the jet lag of getting to my honeymoon destination, I've been a bit out of it. Hopefully, I should be able to post a bit more frequently now.

Was a bit busy last night as well and didnt get to update but should be able to tonight. Tomorrow is also my halfday and then my day off follows so I'll be around much more.



Haldar's perception allows him to see both goblins in the bushes.

Guess who got screwed out of a day off?

This whole 'Operation Inherent Resolve' is really cutting into my free time which was already limited due to being deployed. But now we're working harder and longer....

If I have to shut this down you guys can blame ISIS.
