Apologies for my absence, I had previous engagement that over-ran. By four hours. I'm looking through the story thus far.... it is really a pain to navigate this website though, any chance of a write up?

Yeah, Nag, eventually I'll need to start doing more extensive record keeping.

The story so far...

The party was camped out in the forest when a knight named Stiofan came by to warn them of an incoming orc raiding party. The party could only move very slowly, as aside from the knight's warhorse, they only had an overladen mule. They had only moved a mile before eight of the orcs had caught up with them. They hid, but unfortunately the mule was stubborn and would not move. Gwrtheyrn was able to entangle all but one of the orcs in plants with a spell. Glrch was able to fool most of them, including the free orc, by using ventriloquism to make them think the mule was talking. The free orc was quickly and cleanly killed by an arrow through the eye from the bow of Sunny. After that, the party made haste on the road to the nearest city.

Upon reaching the city, the party decided to follow Stiofan to a nearby inn, where they drank ale and filled their bellies with food. After much discussion between them, a priest from a nearby village made an interesting proposal to them. He asked them to help him retrieve a powerful sword from a forgotten tomb that he knew the location of, so that he could sell it and pay for an escort to move his village over the river, for they were secretly of the religion of the Reformed Church, but while on the south side of the river, they had to feign being the religion of the Great Church. The party retired to bed and told the priest they would consider it.

Anyways, I'm not sure if I'm up for a session today. I wasn't even prepared yesterday, and that is just as true today. I had some insomnia last night, so I'm not exactly well rested. And I'm not in the best mood either. But really, it depends more on a storm that's passing over right now. I might like to DM today as a distraction, but if the storm cuts out the internet or the power or the internet, then I won't be able to. Anyways, I'll leave the chat up while I'm doing whatever. Probably playing Borderlands 2. So I'll hear the clicking if you guys start talking. One of you should message me on steam if you can. I might get it on my phone if my computer is off due to weather.

Easter dinner coming up shortly. Not gonna make it tonight. Consider my character enjoying himself in the whorehouse, and he will catch up later.

I think this upcoming Saturday at 4pm EST is the next time we're definitely playing, but I might be available in the early afternoon tomorrow (Tuesday) for a session.

The stipulation is we always need at least three people. I am recording everyone's relevant actions for experience points, so even those of you that aren't able to get all the way through the quest will get something for it. But I encourage everyone with a character to participate as much as they can, because there's loot to be had. If you aren't there when the loot is being looted, well then, you don't get any loot, do you. Unless the other party members decide to be ridiculously nice to you.

I might be able to play tomorrow, depending on what time you're available. If not, I fully intend to participate on Saturday.

Sarah, only two things. Your class should be thief. At least I assume that's what you meant. And also, I need a gender. It's not relevant to any dice rolls, but it's completely relevant to roleplay. You could be playing a woman named Kyle for all I know. Anyways, I'll record your character sheet ASAP. Glad to see another player. ^^

Okay, Al. If anyone else is available to play tomorrow, speak up. I can make time for it. Just know I won't be at my best, but I don't know if I'll even be at my best by Saturday. But all in all, this will get more organized the more we play.

I should be able to play pretty much whenever today, although my sleep schedule is screwed up enough now that I'll probably need to sleep sometime in the next 10-12 hours.

Well, doesn't look like anyone is coming anyways, but...

I have to go anyways. My parents just sprung some trip to the park on me. They never tell me about their plans. We can try for a session tomorrow.

Aww... Maybe some time tomorrow, or if not, then who's up for next Saturday?

By the way, Sed, I like the world you've created so far, despite spending only a few hours in it IC and only a few more hours than that discussing it OOC. I have an idea for a small, relatively isolated continent that might fit somewhere unobtrusive in your world, if you're interested. A pseudo-australia of sorts, that us pseudo-europeans don't even know exists yet. Perhaps if our characters survive the holy wars and bloody inquisitions to come, and travel far beyond their homeland, they might reach the distant shores of this continent...

I should be around next Saturday. Just let me know what time to show up when you get things sorted out.

For posterity, I started transcribing our first official session, (plus our introductory prologue, minus OOC chatter.) Also, I changed it to past tense and did a bit of creative editing to make it flow more smoothly and hopefully read more like a story. It is by no means an objective account, being somewhat distorted by our halfling bard's particular lens of perception and his fuzzy memory. It's still a work in progress that I intend to improve over time, but here it is so far:

I'll be free any time this weekend, at least until 4pm pacific time on Saturday.

I'll be free if my parents don't spring another surprise trip on me. I'm basically free all the time. Okay, I haven't really been free lately, because my life is a rollercoaster lately, but my schedule is open, so so long as we schedule it, I should be able to make it.

Anyways, we really need to schedule a better time for sessions, because it does look like Saturday at that time doesn't work for people. Everybody, just say when you're free, though make sure to state your time zone. Then we can schedule something most people can make it to. When I get better organized we can do like two separate sessions a week for different groups of people.

Actually, Saturdays are the only day I am consistently free. As long as I have some advance notice, pretty much any time most Saturdays will work for me. There are certain events/festivals/gatherings/etc. that are likely to be happening on Saturdays with increasing frequency as the days get warmer, and these are likely to interfere with my availability, but I'll be sure to let you guys know at least a few days in advance when I won't be able to make it.
