I am gonna write tomorrow, had my birthday today and stuff, so I celebrated a bit for myself :P

Oh, cool, happy birthday.

Oh, cool, happy birthday.

Thank you very much. :3

Hey, can I be put on the wait list to get in on this? I've been looking for a 5e game on here that hooked me and this seems pretty cool

@rocketrobie2

You'll be second after Tangle.

@Lucius Cypher Sounds good! Just wondering, how are stats handled? Are they rolled for or the point-buy system?

Regular point buy.

Okay, I want to look at the body and see if I can discern what killed it.

Cool. If you're just looking it'll be an investigation check. If you want to get close to the body, roll me a constitution saving throw. Then you can choose either Medicine or Investigation.

I want to try and keep on the look out to see if this is a trap of some kind. So uh, would that be a perception check or...?

EDIT: To clarify, I wanna look around and try to spot any monsters that may be out of sight.

Okay,
constitution check:
Natural 19

And then I want to investigate... actually, if I want to know what killed it, medicine is probably better.
Okay, medicine check:
Gods... Natural 20+2= 22

Those are my first ever rolls of a D&D game...

@Ookawa

Alright I took way too long to get to this. Anywhoozies good rolls!

You pass the constitution check, so while the trog's corpse is still foul and disgusting, you manage to keep your guts in check and aren't sickened. You proceed to check the corpse.

With a natural 20 for a total of 22, you definitely know that this trog was killed with a long broad blade, likely a two-handed weapon of some sort based off the angle of the cut. You also know that this decapitation was it's only injury so whatever killed it managed to kill it in a single blow. Based off the stiffness and warmth of the body, it's only been dead for about one hour. Whoever or whatever killed it must be very close. Finally you can tell that this trog is both male had sex fairly recently. I'll leave it to you how you come to discern this, but it is important for one major factor: female trogs are extremely rare and often very powerful (Aka actually intelligent), and often serve as queens of sorts. Which means that this trog likely comes from a larger brood instead of simply a roaming band. This is important for two reasons: one that likely means that whatever band this trog was with isn't just hunting to sustain itself but also hunting for his brood, and two that brood will likely have various treasures and loot from dead adventurers or simply scavenged as the trog queen demanded.

Well granted the last bit is just something your character could safely infer based mainly one what little she may know of trogs. They're basically subhuman goblins. Breed en masses to fight en masses, hordes shiny things, kills anyone they can catch. Typical stuff.

My con check, though if Ook is doing a medicine check there's little need for me to.

@Lunarlord34

Con passes. You can try an investigation check. That will give you different information if you roll well enough.

Mate, I don't learn shiiiiitttttt about this lol

@Lunarlord34

This Trog is dead and has been decapitated. Likely by a blade.

I'm gonna pass on this turn. The risk to check out the body isn't worth the relatively small chance of the investigation providing anything more useful.

@Simple Unicycle

Can’t beleive it took me two weeks to respond. A perception, investigation, or survival check could be used to spot a possible ambush or trail.

Got an... 8 on my constitution check. Well, that's nice.

And got an 18 for my search, using survival.

@Simple Unicycle

You are sickened for the next ten minutes. You can roll a another Constitution saving throw every minute however to save, but while doing so you're under the poisoned condition.



Still I'll allow your previous check to go through unabated. Your survival check reveals that there where many monsters, mostly trogs, who have crossed this body somewhat recently. Scraps against the ground, a stain here and there, all of it fresh too. There aren't any monsters lying in ambush right now but you do know that if you stay too long chances are you'll run into something roaming the ruins. Or rather, it'll run into you.
