[Wed May 1 19:50:22 2013] : Sylvie: Did Bert say he wasn't here this week?
[Wed May 1 19:50:40 2013] : Andrei: Saturday is quite usual
[Wed May 1 19:51:31 2013] : Andrei: It's easier for guests to come on Saturdays
[Wed May 1 19:51:32 2013] : Sylvie: Mardram: ok, I'm off to bed. G'night all, and thanks again Craig. See you 3 weeks today
[Wed May 1 19:51:40 2013] : Sylvie: He did

[Wed May 1 19:51:55 2013] : Sylvie (exit): 19:51
[Wed May 1 19:51:56 2013] : Mary: It wasn't possible to get married in the weekend in the Netherlands, and even now you can, it's much more costly
[Wed May 1 19:52:40 2013] : Sylvie (enter): 19:52
[Wed May 1 19:53:12 2013] : Andrei: Weekends are a bit more expensive in the UK too
[Wed May 1 19:53:17 2013] : Sylvie: OK, that was my desktop session dying
[Wed May 1 19:53:31 2013] : Sylvie: But I'm in Unity now as a fallback :-)
[Wed May 1 19:53:36 2013] : Sylvie: Or :-(
[Wed May 1 19:53:49 2013] : Sylvie: Is what I meant - It's stable at least
[Wed May 1 19:53:59 2013] : Andrei: stable is good
[Wed May 1 19:54:08 2013] : Linden: For horses.
[Wed May 1 19:54:13 2013] : Sylvie: Unlike Xubuntu 10.04
[Wed May 1 19:54:18 2013] : Sylvie: Umm 13.04
[Wed May 1 19:55:34 2013] : Sylvie: Bleh... I hate Unity
[Wed May 1 19:55:41 2013] : Sylvie: GAME START
[Wed May 1 19:56:11 2013] : Sylvie: You are all trying to find Sylvie's little brother...
[Wed May 1 19:56:46 2013] : Sylvie: En route you were attacked by some giant scorpions and Sylvie manifested some magic
[Wed May 1 19:56:50 2013] : Andrei: ooc did we search the scorpion caves?
[Wed May 1 19:56:55 2013] : Sylvie: ooc no
[Wed May 1 19:57:21 2013] : Andrei: "I hate to say it, but there may be more of those things down there."
[Wed May 1 19:57:43 2013] : Linden: "Where do the tracks lead?"
[Wed May 1 19:57:45 2013] : Andrei: "We'd probably better check."
[Wed May 1 19:57:47 2013] : Mary: "And there also might be people there, that are still alive"
[Wed May 1 19:58:35 2013] : Andrei: "Not many people would still be alive down there, I think."
[Wed May 1 19:58:38 2013] : DM: Survival roll to make anything of tracks
[Wed May 1 19:58:54 2013] : Linden: Survival: [1d20(10) + 1] = 11
[Wed May 1 19:59:44 2013] : Mary: Survival: [1d20(3) + 12] = 15 (19 Undead, 17 Animals) Track: 18 (22 Undead, 20 Animals) (All +2 when in a forest)
[Wed May 1 19:59:55 2013] : DM: Linden can't make anything out of the mess of tracks in the area
[Wed May 1 19:59:59 2013] : Andrei: ooc I'm untrained
[Wed May 1 20:00:30 2013] : Linden: ooc survival can be used untrained.
[Wed May 1 20:00:44 2013] : DM: Mary can spot that the scorpions go into and out of the caves, but that the other footsteps you were tracking enter, and exit the dunes
[Wed May 1 20:01:34 2013] : Mary: Mary shares her insights
[Wed May 1 20:02:06 2013] : Linden: "Leave the caves, we should follow the tracks and find Sylvie's brother"
[Wed May 1 20:02:08 2013] : Andrei: "You mean we can stay OUT of the holes?"
[Wed May 1 20:02:13 2013] : Andrei: "That sounds good to me."
[Wed May 1 20:02:50 2013] : DM: Perception checks
[Wed May 1 20:02:53 2013] : Linden: "Mary, lead the way, please."
[Wed May 1 20:02:55 2013] : Mary: Perception: [1d20(13) + 13] = 26 (30 Undead, 28 Animals) (All +2 when in a forest)
[Wed May 1 20:02:57 2013] : Linden: Perception: [1d20(15) + 5] = 20
[Wed May 1 20:03:07 2013] : Andrei: Perception: [1d20(6) + 12] = 18
[Wed May 1 20:04:50 2013] : Mary: Mary jumps of her horse and runs towards a small hole to the south
[Wed May 1 20:05:05 2013] : Mary: "There is somebody there!"
[Wed May 1 20:05:27 2013] : DM: There is a small hole in the dune, about 2 feet across
[Wed May 1 20:05:31 2013] : Andrei: Andrei also dismounts and follows, ready to guard Mary's back - just in case
[Wed May 1 20:05:35 2013] : Linden: Linden follows up cautiously and at a distance.
[Wed May 1 20:06:13 2013] : DM: Protruding from the hole, is a pair of boots, clearly attached to legs. The legs are not moving, and there is a bad smell
[Wed May 1 20:06:39 2013] : Mary: Mary starts digging in the sand, around the boots, trying to clear the legs and body
[Wed May 1 20:06:58 2013] : Linden: "Best not look Sylvie. It doesn't look pretty."
[Wed May 1 20:06:58 2013] : DM: (whispering): Did you use italics as DM? I never know when it looks right for me to use them
[Wed May 1 20:07:13 2013] : DM: Heal checks
[Wed May 1 20:07:16 2013] : whispering to DM, I never used them.
[Wed May 1 20:07:19 2013] : Mary: Heal: [1d20(12) + 8] = 20
[Wed May 1 20:07:26 2013] : Andrei: "Take care, Mary; it's not something I'd like to have to rescue you from."
[Wed May 1 20:07:39 2013] : Andrei: Heal: [1d20(18) + 2] = 20 (untrained)
[Wed May 1 20:08:16 2013] : Linden: Heal: [1d20(10) + 1] = 11
[Wed May 1 20:08:59 2013] : DM: The ground does not yield much to the digging, but the legs protrude enough to pull the body out
[Wed May 1 20:09:00 2013] : Mary: ooc My Heal check should be 2 less, not using my kit here
[Wed May 1 20:09:23 2013] : DM: Looking at the body, you can tell it's decomposing
[Wed May 1 20:09:37 2013] : Andrei: ooc what sort of ground is it again? I had sand in mind for some reason
[Wed May 1 20:09:45 2013] : Mary: "I'm afraid we're too late"
[Wed May 1 20:09:54 2013] : Mary: ooc So did I, to be honest
[Wed May 1 20:09:55 2013] : DM: The ground is sandy, but underneath it's more solid
[Wed May 1 20:10:06 2013] : Andrei: ooc OK, so sand over rock sort of thing. Gotcha.
[Wed May 1 20:10:17 2013] : Mary: ooc Probably because the DM used the word dunes a couple of times
[Wed May 1 20:10:18 2013] : Andrei: ooc (glad I'm not going mad)
[Wed May 1 20:10:20 2013] : DM: sand over sandstone
[Wed May 1 20:11:05 2013] : Andrei: "Any way of telling who this chap was?"
[Wed May 1 20:11:20 2013] : Linden: "What's he (she?) doing head down in a hole?"
[Wed May 1 20:11:31 2013] : DM: It's not obvious from his boots or lower legs.
[Wed May 1 20:11:50 2013] : DM: The body is on its back, toes to the sky...
[Wed May 1 20:11:53 2013] : Andrei: "Let's pull him out, but be careful... we don't want him to ooze."
[Wed May 1 20:12:01 2013] : DM: Not really a crawling position
[Wed May 1 20:12:09 2013] : Mary: Mary starts pulling
[Wed May 1 20:12:13 2013] : Mary: Strength: [1d20(6) + 0] = 6
[Wed May 1 20:12:25 2013] : DM: You fail to budge it
[Wed May 1 20:13:01 2013] : Mary: "A little help here, please?"
[Wed May 1 20:13:07 2013] : Andrei: Strength: [1d20(4)] = 4
[Wed May 1 20:13:11 2013] : Andrei: ooc HAH!
[Wed May 1 20:13:17 2013] : Mary: ooc KMAO
[Wed May 1 20:13:19 2013] : Linden: "Use a rope and a horse."
[Wed May 1 20:13:30 2013] : Mary: "Great idea"
[Wed May 1 20:13:46 2013] : Mary: Mary does so
[Wed May 1 20:13:48 2013] : Mary: Strength: [1d20(1) + 3] = 4
[Wed May 1 20:13:53 2013] : Andrei: ooc does everyone have rope?
[Wed May 1 20:14:01 2013] : Linden: I have rope.
[Wed May 1 20:14:26 2013] : DM: Can you describe how you are doing it please? and without metagaming, where you are, where the horse is etc ;-)
[Wed May 1 20:14:32 2013] : Andrei: Andrei takes his time to tie the rope properly, and rigs it up so everyone can help pull.
[Wed May 1 20:14:42 2013] : Andrei: ooc are the two red lines the legs?
[Wed May 1 20:14:47 2013] : DM: yes
[Wed May 1 20:14:47 2013] : ** Mary found the F2 macro key **
[Wed May 1 20:15:10 2013] : Andrei: ooc using Bert as the marker for my horse
[Wed May 1 20:15:15 2013] : DM: LOL
[Wed May 1 20:15:32 2013] : Andrei: ooc I'm sure he'd be delighted to be useful in his absence :-p
[Wed May 1 20:16:00 2013] : Linden: Linden is standing to one side.
[Wed May 1 20:16:18 2013] : Andrei: Where's Sylvie?
[Wed May 1 20:16:27 2013] : Linden: With me, on my horse.
[Wed May 1 20:16:29 2013] : DM: Sylvie sits on Linden's horse
[Wed May 1 20:16:47 2013] : Andrei: Jin is clearly helping pull, 'cos she's the only one with muscles.
[Wed May 1 20:18:41 2013] : DM: light or heavy horse?
[Wed May 1 20:19:02 2013] : Andrei: Mine's a light horse
[Wed May 1 20:19:04 2013] : DM: [1d20(2) + 3] = 5
[Wed May 1 20:19:16 2013] : Andrei: ooc can we take 10 here?
[Wed May 1 20:19:42 2013] : Andrei: "This body's wedged tight. No idea how it got down there."
[Wed May 1 20:19:55 2013] : DM: With some assistance from others pulling...
[Wed May 1 20:20:12 2013] : DM: The horse pulls hard on the body...
[Wed May 1 20:21:04 2013] : DM: It jerks out of the hole and landsnext to Al and Mary
[Wed May 1 20:21:13 2013] : Andrei: ooc Andrei, not Al.
[Wed May 1 20:21:16 2013] : Andrei: ooc :-p
[Wed May 1 20:21:21 2013] : DM: (and the horse)

[Wed May 1 20:22:39 2013] : DM: As the body jumps forward with the force of the rope pull...
[Wed May 1 20:22:56 2013] : DM: You get a clear view of why it was wedged...
[Wed May 1 20:23:36 2013] : DM: A visibly pulsating abdomen tears as the body is pulled out

[Wed May 1 20:52:04 2013] : DM: The items are easily removed

[Wed May 1 20:55:19 2013] : DM: They don't appear particularly valuable, 1-2 GP each
[Wed May 1 20:55:29 2013] : Linden: "This looks like a pretty valuble rock, about 500 gold if I'm to guess. Use to see a lot of gems in my work. Rich folks always wanted to put shiny rocks on their personal weapons."
[Wed May 1 20:55:39 2013] : Andrei: "That gemstone's valuable; my guess is a little lower than yours."
[Wed May 1 20:55:52 2013] : Andrei: "But still worth hanging on to."
[Wed May 1 20:56:34 2013] : Linden: "Never saw the point of gems, better to spend the coin on better magic."

[Wed May 1 20:58:28 2013] : Andrei: "Mary, will yo ulead on, please?"
[Wed May 1 20:58:36 2013] : Sylvie: "Phew... That body smells "

[Wed May 1 21:00:52 2013] : DM: With all the walking, and finding and refinding the tracks, you notice that it's probably only 2 hours until sunset
[Wed May 1 21:01:26 2013] : DM: Another survival roll for the second hour please?
[Wed May 1 21:01:31 2013] : Mary: Survival: [1d20(8) + 12] = 20 (24 Undead, 22 Animals) Track: 23 (27 Undead, 25 Animals) (All +2 when in a forest)
[Wed May 1 21:01:56 2013] : DM: After another hour, it's now only 1 hour until sunset...
[Wed May 1 21:02:05 2013] : Mary: "We'd better look for a place to camp soon, before it gets to dark to see"
[Wed May 1 21:02:10 2013] : DM: The tracks seem to be geting harder to follow
[Wed May 1 21:02:24 2013] : Mary: Survival: [1d20(4) + 12] = 16 (20 Undead, 18 Animals) Track: 19 (23 Undead, 21 Animals) (All +2 when in a forest)

[Wed May 1 21:04:40 2013] : Mary: "Right, no use going on in the dark, let's find a camping spot"
[Wed May 1 21:04:42 2013] : DM: There is not enough natural light to continue, unless good illumination is provided

[Wed May 1 21:05:12 2013] : Linden: Linden casts light on a stick.
[Wed May 1 21:05:20 2013] : Andrei: "I think a light might just make us more visible, Linden."
[Wed May 1 21:05:53 2013] : Linden: "Is that worse than waiting until dawn? I don't know."
[Wed May 1 21:06:02 2013] : Andrei: "You can always see the watch coming in cities, for example."
[Wed May 1 21:06:09 2013] : DM: Mary spots a perfect little dell, sheltered from the wind, where the horses can also shelter, and she also forms the tents into an excellent bivouwac that covers all of you and shelters
[Wed May 1 21:07:13 2013] : DM: It's very warm in the bivvie, and the heat of the animals makes the cold nigh quite cosy, even if you forego a fire
[Wed May 1 21:07:27 2013] : Mary: "It's beter to leave the fight until we can all see clearly"
[Wed May 1 21:07:51 2013] : DM: Other than the goings on of small animals, the night passes uneventfully

[Wed May 1 21:15:49 2013] : Andrei: "Not something I knew was here, and I hear a lot of things in general."
[Wed May 1 21:15:59 2013] : Linden: "Huh. I would have thought the trail would have lead to that old temple."

[Wed May 1 21:18:40 2013] : Andrei: "Keep down, folks, there's guards there."
[Wed May 1 21:19:15 2013] : Andrei: "They look like skeletons to me, so harder to fool."
[Wed May 1 21:19:38 2013] : DM: ooc David, can you add your marker please

[Wed May 1 21:20:53 2013] : DM: The skeletons are stood are not moving
[Wed May 1 21:21:06 2013] : Andrei: "Then they're only as good as the orders they've been given. Reckon theythought of saying 'tell us if anything attacks'?"

[Wed May 1 21:24:06 2013] : Mary: ooc I would think the bonus should still be valid when we're there to fight them. If not, I'll just use another move action

[Wed May 1 21:24:26 2013] : Mary: Mary joins Andrei

[Wed May 1 21:28:47 2013] : Andrei: "Though I suppose it's getting out again that's thechallenge."

[Wed May 1 22:42:00 2013] : Andrei: ooc in Amsterdam

[Wed May 1 22:43:22 2013] : Andrei: Well, I'm here weekdays until end of July, I think
[Wed May 1 22:43:27 2013] : DM: Sorry about the mess with the horse riding
[Wed May 1 22:43:44 2013] : Mary: No problems, I never can work that out myself
[Wed May 1 22:43:52 2013] : Andrei: no worries: I kept forgetting whether I was on my horse or not
[Wed May 1 22:43:56 2013] : DM: I was trying to find the info and had to make what I thought of as a logical decision
[Wed May 1 22:43:57 2013] : Linden: I should have waited until afterwards, Craig.
[Wed May 1 22:43:58 2013] : Andrei: nn all
[Wed May 1 22:44:04 2013] : Andrei (exit): 22:44
[Wed May 1 22:44:13 2013] : DM: No probs David... It's not like I do :-)
[Wed May 1 22:44:44 2013] : Mary: Well, I'll be healing my horse and Craig can tell us what he things before next mounted combat :)
[Wed May 1 22:44:54 2013] : Mary: thinks
[Wed May 1 22:45:00 2013] : Linden: Good game, thanks.
[Wed May 1 22:45:14 2013] : DM: I think that a war trained mount and a good ride check probably allow it
[Wed May 1 22:45:15 2013] : Mary: Goodnight and sweet dreams, see you next week :D
[Wed May 1 22:45:19 2013] : DM: Night
[Wed May 1 22:45:24 2013] : Mary: Bye
[Wed May 1 22:45:28 2013] : Mary (exit): 22:45
[Wed May 1 22:45:56 2013] : DM: Where is the info on moving on a horse in combat David?
[Wed May 1 22:46:41 2013] : DM: I'm struggling a bit this evening too because I'm using Unity instead of XFCE
[Wed May 1 22:46:55 2013] : DM: By necessity
[Wed May 1 22:47:12 2013] : Linden: Page 201 in the book.
[Wed May 1 22:47:21 2013] : DM: What section is it?
[Wed May 1 22:47:37 2013] : DM: My book's in the cupboard, and I use the PFSRD
[Wed May 1 22:47:57 2013] : Linden: Combat -- Mounted Combat
[Wed May 1 22:48:17 2013] : Linden: Combat -- Special Attacks -- Mounted Combat
[Wed May 1 22:48:30 2013] : DM: OK thanks, I'll take a look
[Wed May 1 22:48:43 2013] : Linden: It's a bit brief TBH.
[Wed May 1 22:49:04 2013] : DM: How did you like the Rot grub BTW?
[Wed May 1 22:49:57 2013] : Linden: Interesting.
[Wed May 1 22:50:56 2013] : DM: LOL
[Wed May 1 22:51:32 2013] : DM: I'm trying to make use of skills people have invested in
[Wed May 1 22:51:44 2013] : Linden: A bit of a puzzle, and a surprising result.
[Wed May 1 22:52:05 2013] : DM: Yeah, the horses had it bad tonight
[Wed May 1 22:52:12 2013] : Linden: I felt the Sylvie could have complained that we were wasting time perhaps.
[Wed May 1 22:52:27 2013] : DM: I kind of forget she's there
[Wed May 1 22:52:45 2013] : DM: It's not easy as I'm sure you know
[Wed May 1 22:52:55 2013] : DM: When everything else is going on
[Wed May 1 22:53:03 2013] : DM: And I missed the ogre camp!
[Wed May 1 22:53:18 2013] : Linden: Yes, there's a lot to track and follow!
[Wed May 1 22:53:48 2013] : DM: Anyway, cheers for the feedback...
[Wed May 1 22:54:13 2013] : Linden: I liked the ogre camp bit. Things like that that build up more background to the story are good.
[Wed May 1 22:55:39 2013] : DM: I'm still not sure a horse can withdraw, or take a 5 ft step in a normal way
[Wed May 1 22:55:58 2013] : DM: I'm going to stick with my judgement I think...
[Wed May 1 22:56:07 2013] : Linden: Sure
[Wed May 1 22:56:10 2013] : DM: You can do it, but it incurs an AoO
[Wed May 1 22:56:34 2013] : DM: If you only move 5ft, you still get a full attack
[Wed May 1 22:56:45 2013] : Linden: The horse might withdraw but the rider doesn't so the rider gets the AoO.
[Wed May 1 22:56:52 2013] : DM: But it's not like a 5ft step on foot
[Wed May 1 22:57:04 2013] : Linden: Or the horse and rider can both withdraw but neither can attack.
[Wed May 1 22:57:08 2013] : DM: One or the other
[Wed May 1 22:57:21 2013] : DM: yes
[Wed May 1 22:57:29 2013] : DM: That sounds good
[Wed May 1 22:57:56 2013] : DM: Anyway, cheers for the feedback
[Wed May 1 22:58:01 2013] : DM: See you next week
[Wed May 1 22:58:15 2013] : DM: No Bert next week still...
[Wed May 1 22:58:24 2013] : Linden: Yes. Bye.
