She maxed out her Bluff roll.

No sign if she suspects or knows any secret or unspoken connection, unless you the player think you see such a sign in her calm, friendly, on topic questions.

And you do not know she's covering for anything, if she is, without a really good sense motive roll.

Heh.

[Wolfglide of the Fraternity]

Just in case, I will attempt a Sense Motive roll. Whatever the result, I will be hard pressed to find a good answer.
0
At +8, that is 22, not that it necessarily amounts to much in the face of her roll.

Can Raen roll religion to see what he knows about the religious practices of the Lawgiver? Cause I thought they do human sacrifice and torture.

Roll away.

[Wolfglide of the Fraternity]

I don't think human sacrifice fits with the cult as it is expressed in Ravenloft, but torture sounds quite characteristic.

I don't think human sacrifice fits with the cult as it is expressed in Ravenloft, but torture sounds quite characteristic.

Executions ordered by the clergy, I'd think.

To Raen, a Darkonese used to the death-cult created by Azalin, this probably sounds like human sacrifice.

Roll away.

0+3 It is untrained roll!
Raen has 8 knowledge skills, but not religion.

As for the Death-cult of Azalin, I was thinking more about the rumors that Azalin has a monstrous secret police that feeds on people. That's kinda human sacrifice masked as execution.
PS Raen has history, local, planes and his background so he has an inkling what the Kargat is.

[ewancummins]

What Raen knows, or thinks he knows about the Lawgiver cult:

They persecute wizards (but isn't Klokulf studying arcane magic now...?)

They despise demi-humans.

They preach submission to authority.

A lot of rumors about torture, star chamber trials, executions (he can consider those sacrifices if you like), secret police...

[alhoon]

Whatever Klokuff does he has been quite vocal about wizards. Like, in his last post. I would go with prosecute wizards...

[alhoon]

And another thing:
Wolfglide : Raen's opinion on your character doesn't have anything to do with me, OK buddy? We're just playing a game here.

[Wolfglide of the Fraternity]

Of course. Likewise, Klokulf's opinions do not necessarily reflect my own. He is just being nasty because he is worried that (honest) assessments of the nature of his faith will negatively impact the Governor's opinion of him.

If he causes excess aggravation in the real world that impacts enjoyment of the game, let me know so I can try and fix it.

By the way, if you accuse him of using arcane magic, I won't be angry, but he will probably explode.

[ewancummins]

Exactly.

I know you guys are good RPers who distinguish between player and character.

On a similar note, Bennedict is pretty defeated at the moment. I'm fine to keep going (was at a music festival the last 5 days, so that's why I haven't been around). But he doesn't see a clear way home and is pretty sure he's stuck here. He's not really a believer in the gods persay and, if they do exist, he's pretty sure they're cruel and petulant and won't do anything to help us. And without supernatural help, he's going to be stuck in this backwater with no way home to his family. And it doesn't help that he knows he botched the ritual that got us stuck here in the first place.
