We all seduce our own way. One could pretty much roll anything to seduce...
Example:
Medicine Check... "You know, I've studied anatomy in depth in my time at the abbey. Therapeutic massages work wonders for stress, aches, and fatigue. Why don't you like down and relax while I get some oils."
Stealth Check... "I know a quiet place where we can..." [Character name] walks her fingers up the barmaid's arm "get to know each other a little more privately. Whaddaya say we sneak outta here and misbehave a little."
Arcana Check... [Character name] performs a minor cantrip and smiles. "You know, each school of magic emanates its own color. And this one perfectly matches the tone of your enchanting eyes. It makes me wonder... is it you that is attempting to cast a spell on me?"
Wowzers, that’s some spicey stuff! Was there a scene in Moana 2 I missed? LOL.
Thats some pretty darned good writing right there. I think that might be a good place for a fade out. Leave some mystery in there while I grab a cold shower. 🤣
Sorry for the wait... this day has been out of whack. I started posting this morning, and got interrupted, and it's just been one thing after another. Now I've got to get dinner started. So I'll try to post tonight. Again... so sorry.
But hey... three cheers for Hastos and Sera! Both of them needed to blow of some steam I bet. 😄
Ok, new day in Santekh. I've updated the campaign notes, so please check those details and let me know if you want me to add anything.
I'm thinking about re-formatting the NPC logs so that you don't have to open it as a PDF, which will also make it easier for me to edit it. It's missing some current NPCs, but I'm too zonked to update it right now. I still haven't even gone through all your character sheets and added my DM Notes. Yeesh. I gotta get it together.
But not this week! 😅
Tomorrow I have to get up early and chop wood. We're bringing more firewood to the tent communities in the area. Then, I have some furniture to assemble. Then I have some home repairs to make. And I've got to set up an optometrist appointment. My eyes are getting so bad, and my glasses are falling apart. They're held together by glue and desperation! 😄 But our insurance cards have arrived, so it's time to get those eyes fixed!
More improvements to the game are coming. Just probably not until after this week is over.
We're going to assume that the trials for Princess Harkail and Dana are happening in the background. You can still RP in town, quest, do whatever. But if you wish to RP any aspect to the trial simply describe that in your posts...
During [Character name]'s time to testify, I go into the court, slam my fist on the table and shout, "No YOU'RE out of order! You can't handle the truth! I hold my-SELF in contempt! If I were the man I was fifty years ago, I'd take a FLAME thrower to this place! Yeah I killed them and I hope they burn in hell! So before you come back here with another lame ass offer, I want you to think real hard about what your spine is WORTH, Mr. Walker!" [My Character's name] then storms out of the courtroom. then breaks into a song about "razzle dazzle" on the steps of the court house.
The “What the hell” part is because there was a surprise sock in his backpack! :-)
As for the edginess, I can’t imagine why! LOL

Honestly, that's a pretty good party setup. And I can run this game with a range of 3 to 10 players. But I want to get your feedback. I have a player on standby, but I'm worried that adding more new players to the game (while the current new lineup is still trying to get to know each other) is going to muddy the story up even more. There's already so much lore that has been lost to player drop-off. Which won't break the game... I know how to pivot and let a story grow organically, but it does represent a lot of work down the drain. 😅 I don't know how to do a poll on DNDBeyond, so I'll just create a multiple choice.
Now's a good time to bring in the new player and let them introduce themself, since we already have a week or two of downtime in Santekh.
Let's give things time to settle and bring in a new player after we've finished a quest together.
I like the party the way it is. Let's not add anyone unless another player has to leave the game.
Please chime in with your vote. I'll do what the party decides on Monday.
Well I really loved this character and maybe later I'll rejoin, but right now... barely have have enough time for family. Regardless Albert will probably build a shrine, help refugees and probably lose himself to the vices of the Laughing dwarf

Indeed! Hastos is probably thinking this in one helluva town.
Just please don’t ask for a “Performance Check” 😆, Hastos has a -1 modifier (take that to mean what you will). 🤔

Look forward to play on. Have a blast and hillarious posting with Hastos right now.
The improvments dounds good :)
Hastos are SO battle ready all the time. And this is just breakfast. Holy crap how will he be when we actually are in a enemy filled dungeon? :D
If a waitress suprise him she risk be insta-killed

Hey :D I'm gonna try to get better at posting more often, I'm new to the online thing but I will get better! :D
(Btw Im Ebrius, I wanted to no longer have my old looks)
Hey! Yea, it takes me a little time to get on a schedule, too!
Hey guys with my new work and schedule I'm really not able to keep up with things here. Seems that Albert will turn into an NPC in Sanketh.
Aaws well that happens. Was fun the little we got. Take care :)
Congrats on the new work. Sorry you’re having to leave tho. Best of luck!
Oof. You'll be missed.
If things settle down IRL, you're welcome to message me, and we can work your character back into the campaign.

MrUncleTio as Hastos (he/him), Human Fight/Champion
Larskolstad as Sera Uth Darnon (she/her), Human Cleric

I vote for no 3
Well I really loved this character and maybe later I'll rejoin, but right now... barely have have enough time for family. Regardless Albert will probably build a shrine, help refugees and probably lose himself to the vices of the Laughing dwarf
(Elf) ;-)
Agreed on number 3!
