S&S The Third

[Tamamo]

Now that we got a game going I'm curious what are each of your expectations? Do you have any concerns, I'm sure you do, and I'll like to address those at this time as well

Here are my expectations specifically.
Don't worry about the mechanics much, prioritize fun over the rules. If something comes up that I or another player doesn't like, my job is to make a quick ruling so the game can continue as soon as I see it.
We're here to have fun, not to bitch about schematics. If you don't want to specify your knowledge skills until later, that's perfectly okay. But remember, you only can have 2-3 + bonus knowledge skills.
If you don't want to bother with Celaena and the CAS system. That's perfectly okay. She can stay in the elven village and the plot will go on.
Communication is welcomed! Feel free to ask me anything. Don't be shy now! I'm not some big shady DM with loaded dice okay.

There are also some things I want to mention before we continue.
1. There is not a set campaign. The Story Arcs I done the week before i post them. This pervents overplanning
2. This is not my game. It is everyone's who participates.
3. Sometimes things won't go as planned. I won't force my story on you, if you wish to do something else. I will glady oblige you.
4. Remember this is your story just as these are your characters. Build friendships and foes your way!
5. Rules are just guidelines... Not concrete, if someone slips up and it causes a major disfunction, then we have a problem.
6. Don't expect me to be original... I can't sweat this enough. Some of my best ideas have come from other sources.
7. If your not having fun I'm not, so do talk to me. Privately if that makes you feel more comfortable.

Well what are you expectations, concerns, and questions for me?
You can ask me now or later. In game or privately.

Having no companions with me to check on, I place one hand on the door. It's hot, so I know not to open it since that means the fire is right outside. I quickly gather what belongings I can salvage ((GM decides what, if anything, I have lost)), and open the window. Gauging the distance down to be about 20 feet, I take a deep breath and make the leap, tucking myself into a ball-like position so as to minimize the chances of any serious injury from my landing.

==================================================
@everyone
At once the girl screams and rushes forward but Crimson grabs her arms from behind.
"STOP! YOU WILL DIE AS WELL FOOLISH GIRL!"
Just then a gnoll bursts through the entrance with his foot and carries out a woman and man on his shoulders. And marches out and lays them down gently. She looks at him with a new hope in her eyes.
"I'm sorry Alice, they smoke got to them before I could."
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
@TheDarkOne
you encounter the other party and witness the above
here is what you managed to salvaged, Equipment only

End of Act 1

Act 2: Into the Woods
The next day the rain has extinguished the flames and a smoldering ruin of a tavern reminds. The gnoll has his arm around Alice who is kneeling before two freshly filled graves. They stand up and the gnoll addresses Celaena.
"Hey elf which way is your home village?"
She points west of northwest. "This direction, through the forest across the river. I was heading to the wine to meet with a mage but was kidnapped by the red backs, managed to escape last night though."
"If you guys need food I suggest heading there. If not follow me. Let's go alice."
The gnoll and alice leave.
"Well so what should we do. I can guide you throught the forest if you want? Although we should try to see if we can find anything in the tavern that survived the fire that might help us. Even materials Like unburn cloth can be used. So search everywhere! I'll search the cellar."

((OOC: By equipment do you mean only my weapons and srmor? What about my cloak, does that count as equipment? I'm not entirely sure what exactly I have now))
I pick through the ruins of the tavern to see if I can find anything salvageable. I will need clothing as I am only wearing a nightshirt and undershorts. All my clothing went up in the fire,

[Tamamo]

I'm go through some serious issues right now and need to go find some help later.

[Tamamo]

If the three of you are still interested we can continue this on friday. I've sorted out the stuff IRL i had to do first.

[mrz84]

I had almost forgotten this was a thing. I would love to continue. I just recently crawled out of the pit that is the Fortnite closed beta and need something to distract me so I don't fall back in.

[TheDarkOne]

I can't speak for anyone else but I'm in.

[King Aquamentus]

*waves* still about, here.

[TheDarkOne]

Well, I thought we were going to keep this going but it's been nearly six months now.
