I would be interested to see how you all picture Sister Wendy since I think I remember how I described her but I’m certain that voice has taken on a life of its own, similar to Linene.

Who's Linene?

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Dec 23, 2020 20:39

The one who likes racing down hillsides in tin baths while eating surströmming.

Is that the nice Swedish lady who works at the Costa?

I think Ivo would be profoundly anti the undead, they being the foul corruption of Xunt's teachings of love, life and grace. It should be our foremost priority to release these creatures from the material plane, be it by finding by what accursed reason they are bound still to this world and freeing them from that profane bondage, or, failing that, hacking them to bits with axes and bears.

Yes, Linene Graywind is what I call her. She goes by many aliases though. Lionshield Coster, Costa Coffee, barm cake merchant and our Swedish friend are just some of them.

Oooh, @sdg - would this humble bundle be useful with your fancy map token DMing program? 76p seems like it might be worth it if so!

Yoink!

I bought a 30mm D20 from CritIt. it is chunky and i love him.

2 sets of Chessex Lab Dice. Nebula! They do sparkle in the darks.

Some good D&D related Christmas presents. I got a Critical Role themed t shirt and some lovely sparkly dice chosen for me by Neve. Vox Machina origins Volume 2 comic. Return of the Lazy DM book which is all about how to plan and prep easily and efficiently and the World of Critical Role book which goes into the history of the home game they used to play together and how it turned into the massive thing it is today.

I didn’t get anything in my sack but I’ve just ordered this that’s more than half the price of other trays and is actually bigger than I thought. Might open a casino

Yoink! That's much better than the 3D printed ones I was looking at.

No. I’m building a woodland themed altar for it.

Yeah, not much more than the fold away felt ones I was looking at and looooads cheaper than all the other wooden ones I’d seen. It’s like a lovely Christmas pricing mistake!

Worryingly easy. I can now pick the little Yale padlock in about 10secs. The bigger no-brand one is harder, but i think because its badly made and nothing quite lines up inside. I'll be robbing bank vaults and stealing the Crown Jewels within a month.

I love the lockpicks I bought. Now, I often just buy a supermarket padlock if I am out, so I can pick it. Which sounds odd, reading it back.

It's very satisfyibg

How is it only Saturday?!

Zardoz · **Posted:** Sat Dec 26, 2020 21:20

I’ve ordered the PHB so might actually know what’s going on at some point

Your guide to what is happening:

Dimrill is an ear collecting pervert.
Zaid is a bloodthirsty animal.
Ivo enjoys ranking tentacles into innocent potato orifices (and other orifices)
Shuu is puu.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

We were hired to deliver a wagon of trade goods.
Found an ambush.
<you joined>Hit a big goblin.<you left>
Rescued one person who hired us.
Took him to town.
<you joined us>Got rewarded.
Talked to some inhabitants and killed some men in Red cloaks.
Entered their lair<you left>
Killed an eye monster
Killed a ringleader called Glassssstaff.
Rescued town sherriff and smith.
<you joined us>Got rewarded.
Talked some more.
Told to see off a banshee but Zardoz wanted to turn into a dog and go to the cemetery.
(a number of, I remember it being high) zombies appeared out of the woods and it's all Zardoz's's' fault.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 1:23

I wanted to see the Banshee the most! Even said we should go as soon as she was mentioned 2(?) weeks ago

Dimrill · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 1:26

And yet, here we are.
In a wood.
And you as a dog.

Squirt · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 6603

I am really looking forward to hearing the Banshee's accent.

We’ll be going through their undead pockets before they know they’re dead again.

It is much, much bigger than I expected. Now I have to find room for it. OO err

Zardoz · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 15:17

Yeah. It’s a dice arena! :DD

sdg · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 16:42

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I’ve come down with a sickness bug and I think I’m going to have to cancel tomorrow night.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 17:31

Oh no! Get well soon, sdg.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 17:32

Get well soon Gill! We can plot what we're going to do with all our cash. xx

Squirt · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 6603

Oh noes! Hope you feel better soon sdg! Drink plenty of fluids! ( thats the sum total of my.medical knowledge ).

I say we still discord in on Monday and just have a Dragonball Z-style powering up montage for 2 hours!

Dimrill · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 19:00

Our wonderful DM could give us a week of downtime that we could RP out in this here thread, maybe? Say before Zardoth took us into the graveyard to go yapping into the woods, maybe we all rested or did other things for 7 days in and around town. Then we can pick it up again next sesh as if we still followed his stench trail.

Or we could rearrange for later in the week if everyone's free and well.

Or.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 19:13

I’m free every other night this week.

myp · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 19:22

I’m happy to give Gilly a week to fully recover and go at it all the harder the next Monday.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 19:53

Of course, sdg needs to be at full hp before our next episode.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Sun Dec 27, 2020 21:31

I'm not overly free for much of the next week.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Dec 28, 2020 0:49

Are you better now, sdg?

sdg · **Posted:** Mon Dec 28, 2020 10:11

Definitely waiting for next week, I feel a wee bit better this morning but I’ve not had much sleep.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Dec 28, 2020 10:13

Glad to hear your feeling a bit better. See you next year!

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Dec 28, 2020 20:18

Think of the hundreds of new dice you’ll have by next Monday

Dimrill · **Posted:** Mon Dec 28, 2020 20:29

*throws them all in the bin*

they... they just remind me of Gill :'(

*sets fire to bin*

myp · **Posted:** Mon Dec 28, 2020 20:37

Then for the first time since the first set you bought, you need to buy dice

myp · **Posted:** Wed Dec 30, 2020 16:31

Might have an idea what’s going on next week now!

myp · **Posted:** Wed Dec 30, 2020 18:18

@grim... interesting side effect of the new rotation code? That black border isn’t on my image on my phone.
