So, where's Seven?

Having many, many conneciton problems....

Time for Tech Support

Seven, I have a few questions that I want everyone to see.

First off, Am I right in thinking that making fortitude saves at increasing difficulty would let me keep running past two minutes? And does having a Constitution of 16 increase the base time?

Secondly, The only way I can think of for me to not leave tracks in this sort of snow is to walk on top of it. If that is the case, then I won't even need to run in order to keep up with Led and Skyseeker.

If I'm wrong on both of these, the last few posts between me and Led become impossible...

Its says they get "Trackless Step", so they manage to walk on top (for want of a better explanation)..you get "Pass Without Trace", so we'll say you also walk on top.

I need to ask for clarification on the map.
I do not download them as they appear, so when a map is updated, I rely on that.

But, before I post my move according to the current map...

I would have sworn Laurel was twice the distance away from Led than she is now, and that it would have taken her a double move to even come close, and still not be able to act other than move.

Now, it is like half the distance between the snow drift and the wagon has been truncated...or something. Did I totally miscount squares on the last map? Or was the distances on the map redone?

Well...
I guess I can post the public part of my move, and then discuss with Seven these questions privately...

Oops. I didn't realize we were waiting for me to post. Sorry everybody.

Your pardon, Sigrid.

May I request you focus your center of Calm Emotions four squares due west of the raging shifter? This way its arc will only affect the shifter and Vynarkus, and allow yourself, Marrik and Skyseeker to still benefit from my song of Inspire Courage and spell of Inspirational Boost, if needed...

...with thanks to Vynarkus for explaining to me how an arcing radius works along with a spell's range...

Sprinting. With a pole-arm.

Awesome.

You're jealous that mine is prettier than yours.

My halberd has tasted my own spleen. It has been blessed with my blood, and it is raised above all other pole-arms in the world as a result.

So I should stab you a few times. Got it.

Yup. Just remember what happened to the previous people who've touched weapons to my spleen. Your glaive would become blessed. You would become party XP.

So... yeah, go ahead.

(If the party turns on one member, and then kills that member, do that player get XP for her own death?)

That's the most expressive gesturing I've ever seen.

Yeah! Give face, bitches!

Yeah, um, Sigrid? They're chaotic, and will attack and eat just about anything, but they aren't evil, at least not so far as spells are concerned.

...I think...

However, they might be summoned, which would afford some protection.

Per information received this morning after I posted last night, but in regards to me having first initiative and succeeding on a spellcraft roll, my post last night has been edited. I should probably change it completely, and attempt to "geek the mage first," before launching in to song. But that seems too drastic a change with posts already coming after. So I am hoping for at least a +2 Circumstance bonus for everyone this edit would influence, anyway.

I'm pretty sure I was told the action I already posted is considered my round one action, even though the initiative order was posted after. So I'll await processing of the round before posting again.

Also, although slaad seem to be mostly of a chaotic neutral alignment as Vynarkus pointed out, I have been told the damage vs. evil outsider arrows I have should do quite a number on them, if they hit. So yeah, for this fight at least, treat them as evil outsiders, I guess.

I am hoping this is not considered too much OoC info. I was unsure how to pass it along IC in the midst of battle. But mostly, I just wanted y'all to know I edited...

Doesn't the act of rushing kind of preclude taking 10?

Also, at this distance, how effective is a shout going to be? Do slaadi speak abyssal? They're CN, not CE.
