OOC THREAD

[Eclecticon]

Okay, your interest is definitely noted.  However, in my own paltry 25 years of GMing I have found that nothing sinks a good game faster than talking about other good games you'd like to play.  At least, doing so around the table seems to be a no-no.  Perhaps we could move this discussion to another location?

In the meantime:

"With your leave, I will go to Rhosgobel and seek the counsel of Radaghast.  It may be that he knows what ails the Maiden of the Tarn, and what may be done." 

"It will be mine then, Old Bear" he almost protested and padded off, leaving his elder atop the Carrock.

No need to respond personally to my letter, the word of an assembling Folk Moot will be answer enough.

Still working on my post.

It will be up tomorrow after I get back from the Renfest.

... Doug?

Would it help kick things off if I rolled a quick journey to get Esgalwen and Arbogast to Rhosgobel? 

[tomcat]

No, not necessary.

I have all my notes written. I am just trying to find time to sit down and write. Crazy weekend with the Renfest and now we have belt testing for Taekwondo.

I should have another post up tonight.

[Eclecticon]

Swanky duds!  And good luck with your belt testing (collectively as a school, if you yourself aren't grading).  I'm helping to train up some of my school's newest students for their first grading at the moment - well aware that the head of the school will be using their performance as an indication of the senior students' understanding of the basics of the style.

Doug,
 Is that a stock photo?

[tomcat]

I just had to mid-term this testing cycle. Last night, we went through all the pressure points and hand-to-hand melee stuff.

Next testing, I will test for my 1st degree black belt.

What do you mean by stock, Tom? That is me in my Ren garb, although the pic is from last year. I didn't get any pics of me this year, but my duds didn't change much.

[tomcat]

Actually, I did change it up a little this year - I went to the fabric store and bought a burgundy sash.

[Telcontar]

Stock as in I had seen the picture before and it wasnt recent. Like stock footage.

[Eclecticon]

Just a heads-up: work is going to be really frantic until the end of the month.  I'll keep following the game, but my replies might be a little slower, and on the short side. 

[Telcontar]

Have we established who the elder of Rhosgobel is? I was looking at the entry in the book when I wrote my post about going to the hall and there is a High Seat in the Hall for the elder, and one below it for the Wizard. So according to the Setting someone other than Radagast is the "Lord" of the settlement, someone numbered among the Woodmen. Seems like an NPC vacancy that we need to fill.

[tomcat]

Tom, I give you the honor of naming him and giving us the details on him.

[Eclecticon]

Canonically, I think the Woodmen settlements are governed by a council of elders.  So it's probably a 'them' - though one might be in charge of the day-to-day, non-crisis decision-making. 

I'm going to try to get a post up later today, just a bit flat-strapped. 

And overly fond of hyphens.

Hey guys, I have been moving into a house this weekend and have forgotten to update you all. I'll be back to post on Monday.

[Eclecticon]

Jeez, I hope it goes alright.  Moving is the suck.
