[OOC] Forgotten Realms: Tales of the Dead

[Sigil]

Heardja, onboard. At this point, I'm fairly certain that Keystone's visitor is actually something horrible. It kind of reminds me of a series of stories from Dragon Magazine from a ways back, Fool Wolf, or some such. He seemed to have a similar difficulty. Even have a slipshod plan on what I want to do next.

Hint: It involves waffles.

[DMZ]

A spirit that's been doing nothing but helping you, horrible? Damn Keystone, you a pessimistic man.

[Sigil]

Too many hints. Too much saccharin. Keystone proceeds with heavily cautioned optimism, kneejerking toward keeping his promise (as we've found out how well he does that so far), however, he's still willing to help Kaylee.

As a player, if killing Glith were the endgame, the game would have ended. Or he's not gone. Loose ends to tie up, at the very least. And breakfast pastry.

[DMZ]

Much like a real life D&D campaign, this could be a new adventure. Or are you actually looking for a 'game over' screen?

[Sigil]

Nah. Always did like the multiple Resident Evil sequels.

[DMZ]

What I find funny is that people express interest, either via IC checks or in PM, I reply with enthusiasm, and they never reply back. Some even make it to the character sheet and then never reply again.

[Sigil]

Brass knuckles, instead of Bracers. The guy's already told Keystone what he could about the bracers, I was trying to get an updated set of knuckle dusters made out of an exceptional material that might be suitable for enchantment at a later date.

Ditto on the waffle iron. But, seeing as he collects cooking gear anyway, might just have to. Dwarfish Waffle Iron is nothing to sneeze at.

[DMZ]

Oh, snap, sorry. Kept reading 'bracers' over and over and over again.

Edited.

[DMZ]

Let me know if you need something edited. I assumed a few things about Keystone.

[Sigil]

Nah. All good so far.

[Sigil]

I'd just as soon fade to black before the situation gets too personal, but bear in mind three facts about Keystone:

Constitution of 17,
Very large hands,
and it's 1d8 vs L creatures.

Carry on.

[DMZ]

That doesn't save you from the chomping maw of a dragon, does it?

[Sigil]

"Save", no.

Wasn't talking about saving. I am a horrible person.

[DMZ]

Oh.....OH.

Well then...

Brb, changing post.

[DMZ]

I should note, I will not be actively telling you if defeated enemies drop any loot. If you want to loot them, you'll have to make it known to me one way or the other.

[Sigil]

A highborn man of social standing, such as our Master Keystone, should have his victims neatly pile and inventory their belongings for him after their inevitable death by fisticuffs. Preferably with an apology note for the inconvenience.

...gotcha, declare action to loot corpses. On it.

[DMZ]

Exceptions will be made for items that have some plot significance, or quest items you are actively looking for.

[Sigil]

IC post edited. That was weird.

[Sigil]

Keystone just invented Instant Ramen.

No matter what else happens in this RP, be it death, dismemberment, or the unending recitation of Orcish Love Stories, this is the takeaway. It's like a Facebook meme:

"Keystone invented Ramen Noodles. Your argument is invalid."



HA!

[DMZ]

Duly noted.

Started writing this damn post 20 times in the past three days, but it looks I won't have the time to finish it for another 24 hours.
