When are we starting?

Tomorrow. Wait until I post, then follow the turn-order in the second post. <3

E: blech, couldn't sleep, wrote instead :)

So I used this IC post to kind of show how the rolling should go, how it should be linked, and what you should do with the results! Please don't hesitate to ask questions.

Also, note that what you were given by Diary Man, are things that were on your CS, no change needed.

I also left WHAT you guys did intentionally ambiguous, feel free to expound on that any way you see fit.

Finally, I didn't tell you what to do because it's up to you guys to decide. Follow the Turn Order when posting! I'll try to give you guys reminders when it's time to post.

"What was weird about the goblins attack" roll
(I messed up on the dice roll. It should have been 2d6+1 not +5, so the real roll was 10. I still get the 3 questions though)

1. What there is not what it is supposed to be?
2. What should I be on the lookout for?
3. What is about to happen?

1. Goblins do not have "stragglers" in fact the only time Goblins who are seen alone are those who are scouting, generally right before a raid, or when they've scavved all the food out of an area.

2. Goblins burn Effigies to their gods right before any major event in their life. If red smoke is billowing in the air then trouble will soon follow

3. Goblins are going to raid Titania. The scout wouldn't have attacked a human if they were just moving.

Okay so I feel like since we've started talking about the world I should write up a bit. Sorry this is a rather large amount of text :P There's a lot more but this is a good bit of info for now.

We are currently in Lysithea, a country primarily of mages and elves. Titania is the capitol city, which we are currently in. It's pretty large, but other than it this country doesn't have huge cities. Thus, it's very much a market town where people come to buy and sell mostly magic goods. Potions, enchanted items, spellbooks, etc. are easily found here but they do wind up costing a pretty penny due to travel fares and such. It's on the southern coast of this part of the continent. The queen of Lysithea is named Verene Lysithe. Since about the wars end the countries of Lysithea and Arana, the vampire's country in the Frozen North, have been at odds due to the way the war's captives were handled. Thus, the country as a whole tends to despise vampires. Lysithea covers most of the Whispering Plains. The Amalthea Forest mentioned in the post is right next to the Lysithean Palace, which is actually a slight ways from Titania. To get to the palace from Titania you may either take the road to Io or the road to Luna, and then the road to the palace from there.
Places the Goblins are probably close enough to attack if he was on the Titania side of the forest are: Titania, Luna, Io, Sinope, and the Palace

To the north of Lysithea is Gemini, a country ruled by two rulers, one elected and one born in. Currently the elected one is Marc Vanisles, and the born in one is Suzanne Fairday. Gemini tends to be more accepting of other races than Lysithea, but it still is mostly made up of mages, elves, and dwarves, especially since it bans the blood trade so no vampires can live within Gemini if they have human slaves from whom they drink, they must sustain themselves some other way. Since most vampires have grown accustom to fresh blood since the war, they mostly just stay in their own country. Gemini overlaps a tiny portion of the Whispering Plains at its sourthern border, but it's mostly hills and mountains. Slightly north east of the capital city of Sarin, there is a mountain range known as The Towering Mountains, where a large amount of dwarves live.

Arana, the vampires' country, is north of Gemini, and is a frigid wasteland (hence The Frozen North). It's a lot like Russia in the way they have tons of land but also tons of ice and snow. The country is primarily made up of vampires and humans, vampires because they tend to be the only ones who can stand the cold without turning to popsicle and humans because of the blood trade. If you're a human and you enter this country, beware of the Snatchers. Snatchers are vampires who kidnap humans they find running around and sell them to blood trade auctioneers to be sold. Veri is the capitol of Arana, and is on the part of the southern border that borders the swamplands. The rulers of this country tend to rule for hundreds of years at a time, yet also tend to be some of the shortest lived vampires due to assassinations. Most vampires can live for thousands of years provided they never are intentionally killed or do not wish to call it quits, but due to the fact the rule of a vampire monarch lasts so long the monarchs are often killed after a while. Anyway, the current monarch of Arana is Cosette Asterfel.

An Intelligence roll while Geckle searches his memory, I think. I'll post as soon as I can and just say that Geckle was taking time to search his memory if I can't get GM information by then, is that ok? Or does it hold us up?

Places with lots of gold, riches, that kind of thing. A Palace would be a likely target. They like shinies.

Ok, thanks. I'll pop that into the post too.

Done.

Ok, Alexander is trying to recollect his thoughts and is trying to remember what kind of weapons Goblins are most known for using. http://orokos.com/roll/160640

I hope I did that right.

I suppose I'm too late then? Dang. Feel free to contact me if someone drops, I might still be interested.

You can ask 2 other things.

Goblins are known to use black powder charges, bows, and magic.

I shall make a list for this :)

What is their strongest weapon or magic? Can goblins be bribed (Presuming you can speak with them)?

They can manipulate fire.

If you spoke Draconian it MIGHT be possible

An intelligence roll to consult my memory banks about goblins.

Are there any ways to successfully track a party of Goblins before they mount a raid?

What are known weaknesses of Goblins...aside from a sword to the face?

How many Goblins usually make up a raiding party?

wait holy shit, it's not my turn next..how embarrassing! I just saw the next name in the turn order was Alex, and my name is Alex so I just...damn I'm sorry lol

And so I don't screw this up, when I go ask my God to support me on a question, how long does it take in-game? Can I make an action, and then get the quest? Is it a full action? Does it take several turns?

.

Under the Well-Crafted Enhancement for the Fighter, that applies to the weight of my sword right? So instead of being a total weight of 2, it would be 1, right? Because when I first made my sheet I just assumed it meant -1 permanently to my inventory.

Because if so I haven't marked that down, but I did mark my inventory total as -1 anyway, so that is tallied correctly.
