Hey gang, I am still here. Apologies for the radio silence these last few days.
I started a new job this month and it came with a 2-week trip to the headquarters and a fairly intensive HR blitz.
Between classes all day, company welcome dinners at night, and then assigned reading to get ahead for the next day's classes ... I haven't really had the bandwidth to get into PbP.
My hope is that the dust will settle on all of this craziness over the next few days, and then we can resume the tale with a quasi-regular posting frequency.
Still a pause on this one or is this is a dead campaign now?
I’m doing ok. No word on when things will continue.
I’ll hold out a bit longer because I’m also pretty busy, but I also am completely ok (though bummed) if we want to call this a loss. I’d rather us have a dead campaign than have people feel pressure to play, you know? Stuff happens.
In the end, Rachael and Rinn will find a way to carry on, even if I port them to another campaign.
Yep. Hopefully we continue, but if not, there'll be other adventures for our brave heroes. It was fun to play a paladin for the first time in about 40 years.
Yea, I've been enjoying playing with you all. If this game doesn't resume, happy gaming!
Indeed. It's been lots of fun. I will definitely be looking for more opportunities to play PbP more often, since it is definitely a good format for those like me who are chronically busy (adult responsibilities...yuck lol).
Also, unrelated to the topic at hand, but what do you all think of the upcoming Vecna release?
Personally, I'm excited for it, but it also has me a bit worried. I feel like it definitely has an "Avengers Unite" feeling to it, with how they're bringing so many key figures through the history of DnD together. It's a lot to promise, but the larger the promise, the easier it is for everything to just fall flat.
Haven't really followed it. To me DnD is just a platform tbh. Recently just started my first pre written module (Icewind Dale), so I don't have much clue about the rule.
I mean I know what Vecna is, but thats about it :D
I pre-purchased it. It could be a cool follow-on campaign to the one I'm running now, plus there aren't many opportunities to play very high level characters, so it's neat that there's an adventure written for 15+ level characters.

^^ Hey gang, apologies (sigh ... again) for the radio silence.
I'm right in the midst of a career-change and the first few weeks with this new job has been a real 'sip from the firehose' experience.
Onward.
I'd like resume this tale but would like to do a roll call before we jump right back into actively posting in the IC threads.
So ... who's still interested in seeing this tale continue? It's totally fine if we do not get a quorum, but I may have to turn the re-recruiting lamp back on if that is the case.

No problems. Toads is old and needs a rest.
No worries. I'm on vacation in Mexico this week, so I'm fine with taking a break as well.
Sooooo, how is everyone doing?

Agree about pressure. Just curious. Love what we have here and would be very sad if it fizzed out.

Any update by chance?

No worries. Life happens. I'll keep playing.
I really enjoy this campaign, so I would like to keep Toadstool alive for a while.
I’ll continue. Rinn and Rachael are present.
I’m still in!
Woot! We have a quorum.
Thanks for your patience, gang. I'll bump the story ahead a bit from the goblin outpost and get another scene introduced.
