Café de Nuit

Stocker looks to both Nicholas and Shana. "Let's do this, hey? He looks to be top heavy, so we'll have to make sure both shoulders come up at the same time. Otherwise the straps might tear. Ready? On three we lift. One...two...three!" ((Avra, Jarryd, and Tavian are going ahead of us, right...

Stocker retrieves the rope that the group had tied themselves to while traversing the mists and returns to Lodissio's unconscious form. He quickly wraps the available blankets around as much of the satyr as he possibly can, then, using the rope to secure them around his body, he flips him over face ...

From his backpack he removes a pair of leather breeches, a jacket, an empty map case, two books and some trail rations. Looking to Shana's shivering form, he offers a smile. "Shana, here, put this on..." He tosses her the breeches, then the jacket. "I know it won't fit, but it should ...

[Since I believe noone has spears or any longer pieces of wood than clubbs, do you still want to construct such a stretcher? Realising the group doesn't have the materials to easily carry Lodissio, Stocker curses. He rubs his bearded chin for a moment or two before the features of his face reveals ...

He nods to the little man and offers a short-lived smile.

"Good idea..."

He finally breaks free from his reverie and turns to take in their surroundings. Here, out in such an open space, their chances of survival were quickly dropping. The cold might be superficial now, but soon it will start to settle into their bones, their reflexes will dull, then depression will set ...

Stocker raises an eyebrow at Avra's words. Superstition or false belief, for to him both are one and the same, it matters not. The fact that the others are so willing to accept the disappearance of a comrade (and to 'justify' it through such illogical means) is enough to keep his true thoughts silen...

"Path is lost over there. If he's still alive, he'll find our way to us. If not, we risk too much going back. The mist horrors and the quevari would be the only things that await us, I am sure." Staring off into the misty haze Stocker nods then mumbles, "That I don't doubt." He ...

Frowning at the brutal logic of Lodissio, Stocker sheathes his knives and frees himself of the rope wrapped around his waist. He then positions himself between the satyr and Nicholas. "Lodissio, let's go see what became of Path," he suggests, motioning with a nod towards the direction from...

* * * * * * "Stocker!" "Stooocker!" The little boy scrunches his face into a frown. He has been staring (and poking) at the carcass of some unfortunate deer for some time now, trying desperately to ascertain the events that led up to its demise. After all, it is what Alanik Ray w...

Sure, why not. By the by, Fouled itself is an anacronym - invented by those rascally english at Scotland Yard. Whenever they caught a couple in lewd public acts, they refered to it as F iled U nder C arnal K nowledge In any case, someone trying to loot the University would be very, very Filed. Hasn...

Thanks for having me. :) As to the PbP after vacation, I like the pace of this one so far. Even during work days and such I will be able to manage at least one post... Desdichado: I'm currently working on a backstory for my character, so when I put it in print I'll fire it off your way for final app...

I decided to cash in some of my vacation, so I decided to take the entire month of December off. 8) Needless to say, that leaves me with a LOT of time on my hands. Well, aside from usual Christmas stuff, nights out at the pub, and drunken hours spent playing Dragon Quest VIII... :wink: I'm intereste...

Has anybody out there put thought into the ghoul's paralysis attack? "Those hit by a ghoul's bite or claw attack must succeed at a Fortitude save (DC 14) or be paralysed for 1d6+2 minutes." This sounds rather absolute to me. Given an attack on a character's exposed flesh, yes. But with an ...
