I am an easy going GM as long as I feel like you're trying. If you need to write a filler post, that's completely fine.

@POOHEAD189

Thanks! Sorry if that seemed rather deflated. The past two weeks have been insane with work. I work in the medical field and the sudden spike in Covid cases has... uh... not been great. So, my brain is like a lukewarm mush. I pulled myself together enough to re-read and formulate the half-assed plan you see before you now.

I have next week off. So hopefully, my brain will work better and the plans will be more whole-assed.

It was a good excuse for me to be fashionably late to your RP too so I've got no room to criticize lel. Hang in there btw, and thanks for the timely post!

"Seriously, does no one here have even a branch as a weapon? I literally gave a few out. Bunch of savages."

If I should ever qualify myself for a boon I am going to pray for a magical saw! Simply because... Sawing into somebody's neck from behind is even more savage than both a spear and iron manacles, it might count as an exotic weapon and it adds quite the irony to the whole affair if, in Lorcan's case, it's seemingly a tree who can cut down humans instead of vice versa!

Who needs a wooden stick when you could just pick up a rock from the ground and chuck it at someone's head.

[POOHEAD189]

Mfw you bring a rock to a stick fight

[Lucius Cypher]

Why must rock and stick fight? They should breed and bare powerful children. We can call it...

Stick Rock.

[Fetzen]

How about dual wielding ? A rock on a stick in one hand, a saw in the other ?

So we could suit all our preferences without conflict :)

[Lucius Cypher]

Nay, dual wielding is silly. Better to combine all the concepts together. Stick Rock Saw.

[POOHEAD189]

I don't...I don't think that's a saw

[POOHEAD189]

Thanks for the timely posts. You'll recieve an update this weekend

[DrRtron]

Dope. I'm sure this disasterplan will go off without a hitch or issue.

[POOHEAD189]

Listen up people! Here is a list of things for you to know...

• Everyone in the Character Tab may now post.
• Each of you now has a tattered cloak, a long knife, a day of food and water, and the original cast gets a set of brigand's clothes.
• Everyone from the original cast has now gotten a Boon, and Faeril gets another.
• The newcomers do not get a Boon, but they do get to add 1+ to any skill they wish!
• You each have 5 silver lordlings.
• You have walked thirty miles over two days, so your feet are killing you.

---

You can choose from 5 different options!
* +3 skill points (you can add a max of 2 to any one skill)
* An uncommon or magic item
* A favor to call on later. Essentially getting a heroe's kind of luck for a desperate moment!
* A feat. Basically an assigned special attack or move that you can use that has a bonus modifier or damage!
* A rumor or thread. You have heard from a refugee or a guard about something interesting.

Choose wisely.

[Lucius Cypher]

Oooh, a boon. Could I have a magic item that lets me summon a horse? Never know when you’ll need a quick escape mount. Alternatively perhaps a magic bow would be useful.

[DrRtron]

@POOHEAD189

Wait, did you just drop a massive dragon fighting a titanic demon on us and then go 'alright guys time to move on'? You can't just brush past that!

Seriously though, that was an awesome post.

I'll go with the +3 points. Faeril isn't nearly personable enough to get rumors. :P

I don't suppose any crossbows survived the fire and wind?

[Lucius Cypher]

Oh yeah, could Rev manage to grab something to make a spear?

@DrRtron

Ssssssssshhhhhh spoilers But thanks! Believe it or not, most of it was ad-libbed :P

And considering your previous Boon, you do get a crossbow! Fully functional and undamaged by the blast. You also get 20 iron bolts.

@Lucius Cypher

Unfortunately, I choose your item and it's not going to be something super fancy like that unless you've done something huge. Generally you'll find it via an IC post too, but since this is a time skip just let me know if an item is your Boon.

Also if you'd like, you can keep your previous spear or say you've made another, but no real spear yet. You can purchase one in town if you'd like.

[Fetzen]

Awesome post!

Two quick questions:
- Is it possible to try a rejuvenation roll on the sore feet?
- The feat is an assigned and not a chosen thing as well, am I correct?

@Fetzen

Thank you, my friend!

To answer, you can pretty much roll for anything. And yes, I assign it. Though if you have a request, fire away.

[Fetzen]

I'll take the feat then. I trust you to find something An-Hasst Skayleigh/Lorcan-ish

[Lucius Cypher]

Hmm. In that case I might just go for the +3 skills. I can put those skills into stuff I’m already proficient in right? Like say, add all +3 into like spears or something.
