[OOC] D&D 5e - Hoard of the Dragon Queen

@Hekazu

Sorry about that boss. I'll make sure to mention ya next time, I got this RP in the active subscription so I always get a notification whenever anyone posts here.

[Hekazu]

@Lucius Cypher
I do too, but since those only give a single notification no matter how many posts appear, when posts appear in a quick succession I may miss 'em. It's entirely on me, I am aware, but I would like to request some help with that if at all possible.

[Hekazu]

Let's see what those shooting after the running man would like to do before we go further with the discussion, shall we?

@Norschtalen@The Harbinger of Ferocity, you two would be next. In the given order though, if it matters.

[Norschtalen]

@Hekazu

I'll post when I get home today.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

@Hekazu, is the last man still within longbow range as he is fleeing? That is all that determines if there is a shot, if at all.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity

With the Longbow effective range being a whole 150 and the absolute range being a whopping 600, there is no doubt about them being in range. If my maths check out, they ran 60 feet away, were chased for 30 feet and now again took off in a 60 feet spurt, leaving them at a 90 feet distance without further movement. That would mean they are in the effective range.

[Gordian Nought]

With 80 feet of dash, how far away are all the baddies? @Hekazu Post will be up on the morrow.

@Gordian Nought

Let's see, they've been dashing for two turns now, that's 120ft. Add the 10ft. head start they got and that's 130, so with your 80ft. dash you'd get to a 50ft. distance of them.

[Gordian Nought]

I believe the Humans are up, @Hekazu.

[Norschtalen]

I'll post later tonight.

[Hekazu]

I'll post later tonight.

@Norschtalen

Yes, I do believe breaking the initiative order at this point would be a smart move.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

Would it be reasonable then, given we are out of order now, to fire one last arrow before addressing the rest of the situation, @Hekazu? It seems we have a bit of a prisoner dilemma on our hands again, but that isn't my primary concern. We've made it through once. Just more so if our escapee is determined to get away by fate's permission.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity

Prisoner's dead. Kyra sends her regards. Nonetheless, feel free to fire tht last arrow.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

I misread that first portion of her post, but I will see to it, @Hekazu.

[Hekazu]

Is nobody interested in sharing with Brannor what happened while he was paying attention to other things? I'd love a bit more material to work with.
@Norschtalen@Gordian Nought@Ryonara@Lucius Cypher

[Lucius Cypher]

I'll try to have Orchid give Brannor a condensed version. I need to post anyways.

[Gordian Nought]

Will post tonight.

[Gordian Nought]

Post tomorrow. Got too busy today.

[Gordian Nought]

Nevermind. Posted @Hekazu. My phone was finally being generous.

@Lucius Cypher@The Harbinger of Ferocity@Norschtalen@Hekazu@Ryonara

I vote scouting first, since Torus has Judgment as an aerial perspective, in addition to his lesser Wildshape forms (cat, dog, etc.).
If it's too dangerous, then the prisoner's dilemma should be assessed by he/she who is willing to participate as the faux hostage. I believe Brannor is too recognizable, due to the fight with Cyanwrath, so Kyra would be my second vote, if we're going down this route.
