OOC Chat II

[JadedDM]

Ah, it's a video game term that has been kind of adopted into tabletop gaming. It refers to a character that can deal good damage (like a cannon) but is very fragile (as if made of glass).

[Breila]

Two 1s and a 2 when rolling hit dice make a character weak (levels 2,3 and 4).

[JadedDM]

Yes, in addition to her low HP, Babushka also has low AC and pretty weak weapon proficiencies (dagger, knife, staff, etc.). She doesn't seem designed to fight on the front line. Giving her the Longtooth Dagger (a dagger that functions like a short sword) was probably the best thing for her.

[agamotto]

Likely true, but Jeremy is a warrior, and lost 2/3 his hp in one round! He's a cannon fighting the Ultima Weapon! Or perhaps just the Ruby Weapon. I'm supposed to be front line, but this fullback got blitzed!


PS, I mean all this in a light joking tone, I am actually having fun with this game. For once I have a DM who doesn't coddle the players.

[Jenara]

Locky will help him as soon as she can.

[JadedDM]

Heh, heh, well if there's one thing I don't do, it's coddle my players. I'm glad you're enjoying yourself.

[JadedDM]

Sorry about the delay; I keep losing my internet connection, and that's slowing me down considerably.

In any case, which tree is Jerrard targeting? He said he was going to help Ulster, but Ulster killed his opponent last round, so...

Not that it matters, I suppose, he missed his attack even if he charges.

[Jenara]

Sorry, he meant Thuskar.

[JadedDM]

Ah, okay. That makes more sense.

[Jenara]

As he dropped his weapon, yes it does.

[JadedDM]

Ah, well. Turns out it was a moot point after all!

[Jenara]

Locky would never forget to help her friends

[Breila]

Yes, silly she may be, but she cares. And even if she hadn't thought of it herself, Babushka would have asked her on the evening of the first quiet day.

[Jenara]

She isn't always an average kender. But right now she wants to splash like she did in the caverns.

[agamotto]

Can we presume that Jeremy automatically looks for wild edibles when making camp? Not necessarily enough to feed every one, just enough to supplement the rations and make them more palatable, so as to stretch the ration out a little.
