[OOC] Epyllion: Beyond Moonlight's Reach

[Vertigo]

@Vertigo If I don't hear from Digi in the next week or two, I might consider asking you to post next and then (unless someone has something else to add) I might move us along into the jungle.

Also, Vertigo, how are you feeling btw? I saw on one of your statuses that the 'flu' turned out to be the virus-that-shall-not-be-named. Have you recovered?

@XxFellsingxX

Yeah, am better now, thanks for asking! Still exceptionally tired, but unsure if it's related.

And sure, just let me know if you'd like a post.

[Digizel]

Hey guys sorry for the massive delay on my end. Things have been kinda rough over here for a few reasons. I'll try to get something in sooner rather than later. RP motivation has kinda tanked a bit lately, but I should be good for that at least. Definitely don't want to keep things on hold for too long.

[Vertigo]

No worries, hope things get better for you soon!

[Vertigo]

How're things?

[rush99999]

All is well on my end.

[XxFellsingxX]

How're things?

@Vertigo

Pretty good. You?

[Vertigo]

Pretty good. You?

@XxFellsingxX

Sick again, but otherwise good. :')

Should I get that post up in the end?

@Vertigo

Oh no, that sucks to hear D: Is it the actual flu this time, or something else?

And yeah, that probably would be best. Afterwards, I'll leave it a couple extra days to see if Digi wants to add anything, and then I'll have us move along.

It's covid :') Turns out that either the previous flu wasn't actually covid after all, or I got it twice... in a month...

Gotcha, sounds like a plan! I'll try to get a post up soon then.

OH NO D8 I hope you feel better soon.

[Vertigo]

Posted, marked exp, and took another move (Secret Catcher). Hope I did all that right, lemme know if not.

@Vertigo

You only take an advancement once you've gained 5 XP, so no new move for you at this moment in time.

Actually, I probably should remind everyone: everytime you roll below 7 (which is called a miss), you actually get 1 XP. I don't think anyone has actually rolled a miss yet, but I thought this was a good time to reiterate it.

@XxFellsingxX

Oh, my bad, fixed! And noted on the below 7 roll.

[XxFellsingxX]

Alright, haven't heard anything from Digi. Before I get a post up, I need to ask @rush99999 and whoever is planning on leading the other group to make a roll for Traverse the Wilderness.

Traverse the Wilderness

TRAVERSE THE WILDERNESS: When you traverse the wilderness, choose one person to be the leader. The leader states where they are trying to go, and rolls 2d6 which they add or subtract from based on the list of conditions below.
- If the leader has been their before, add 1.
- If the leader has no darkness marked, add 1.
- If no one in the group has been there before, subtract 1.
- If the leader has three or more darkness marked, subtract 1.
On a 10+, the party reaches their destination for without any hiccups, and the leader gets a +1 on their next roll. On a 7-9, they still reach their destination but encounter an obstacle on the way. The GM presents a list of obstacles for the leader to choose from. On a miss, the group ends up somewhere they're not supposed to be. The GM chooses an threat for them to encounter and the leader gets -1 on their first move against it. Once the threat has been dealt with, the leader can choose to course correct and get the group back to their original destination, or choose to delve deeper into the unknown.

@XxFellsingxX

I rolled a 6.

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Right. Stargaze is going to lead everyone else to Echo...

Roll coming!

I also got a 6

[XxFellsingxX]

@rush99999 @Guardian Angel Haruki

Aaaand literally the next rolls after I explained how misses work are misses. Wow. Well, at least you both get 1 point of EXP.

Now I'm going to have to think about what you guys are going to run into.

@XxFellsingxX

You totally jinxed us. :P

[XxFellsingxX]

Thought it would take me longer to come up with something, but apparently, when thinking about all the possible horrors you could run into in a magical forest, my brain was like "Don't worry, buddy, I got you"

[XxFellsingxX]

@rush99999 Hey Rush, because you rolled a miss on Traverse The Wilderness, you have a -1 first roll dealing with whatever obstacle you encounter so technically you rolled a 9. That's still a pass but it means you have to choose whether you want to create an opportunity or sieze a position/resource.
