@The Harbinger of Ferocity@Tangletail@Vertigo@Eleven Apologies, all. My laptop’s ability to connect to the internet has gone kaput. For now, you can consider yourselves out of combat - meaning back to normal posting. Caw can fire up to three more arrows before he’ll lose sight of it.

Also, for Rhaeyla and Caw; since you used ranged weapons, please could both of you roll a d12-1. The result is the number of darts/arrows you recover (not exceeding your original amounts of 10 and 20 respectively). Anything else is broken or otherwise lost.

I think it might be easier to say that Caw doesn't go after the kobold, so we can be properly out of combat and back to regular posting.

For the roll, I got a 5.

And no worries, hope you can get your laptop sorted soon!

Right, so. Around the same time as my laptop, so too does my phone fall on the floor and decide it was a good idea to start glitching the screen and opening apps of its own volition. Currently I'm using my kindle, but it's slow work.

@Vertigo@Eleven You're both back to full ammo, then.

@Tangletail Make a history check for tribal markings.

Right now, Cassandra will be inside with the family, using her healer's kit to bandage their wounds. Her look is intense, and troubled (insight to know more). She's set her staff aside for now, and every part of her body is shaking. Linan and Cuth seem to be in a bit of shock - they're barely responding, just breathing heavily and leaning against the other (AKA, I want to be able to type something up properly for their part. That means I need a keyboard. I'm back at college tomorrow, hopefully I can use one of the library computers).

Sebastian would have made to shoot after the kobold, but he never fired his crossbow. Instead, he'll ask the person closest to him (you can decide that among yourselves) to help him corral the horses and move them into cover. He looks troubled as well, and his gaze keeps drifting to the Keep visible from all points of Greenrest and to the dragon swirling overhead (requires a separate insight check).

Magdar has a strange gleam in his eyes, one that doesn't quite fit the idea of a town under siege, but he keeps adjusting his grip on his axe and looking towards the dragon.

By this time, Surina will have made it to the city. Her eyes will widen upon seeing the dead kobolds (my autocorrect changed kobolds to jobless, thought you guys might like to know), but she seems to be impressed by the results.

You can't figure out where these tribes are from, but something does strike a chord with you - they don't match. Not one of these kobolds came from the same tribe. (That's from your passive perception)

Was going to wait for a few more posts, but I'm catching up and can get a little something up tomorrow!

Speaking of... If anyone wants an insight into the Kobolds head... Feel free to try it.

I'll try, since Caw is going to talk to him! Lemme try that insight check...

Got a 12! Eh, decent but not exceptional.

@Tangletail @Vertigo For this, I would use Deception to conceal your feelings (or your passive Deception, which is calculated the same as passive Perception).

EDIT: Also, laptop has been fixed! If any of you three (including Eleven/Rhaeyla) want to do something, please do let me know! Otherwise, I can start moving on.

I wouldn't really say he hid it. He openly displayed something. :P Just a matter of well it can be interpreted.

@Vertigo

You pick up a sense of loss. Though not for the kobolds. Hes fond of them, as hes gentle enough with the bodies but hes incredibly emotionally detatched from them. Its likely to do with the way hes looking at himself.

You could conclude he had been strongly reminded of his fragility. After seeing a group of kobolds that outnumbered the party get destroyed.

@CollectorOfMyst I'll try to whip up a quick post where Rhaeyla is helping Sebastian. Rolled a 16 for the Insight check you mentioned.

I wonder if Sebastian heard the adoptive father comment? :P I really wanna see how he'd react, heh.

I really want to have Caw respond, but-- I'm about to head off to travel for the rest of the month, so you probably shouldn't wait for me to progress! I'm not sure how much, if at all, I'm able to post while gone.

If you move on, I can just have Caw's reply to Vaal in my next post before I also skip ahead to where you are, though! (You can assume Caw followed everyone else).

@Vertigo Well, it's also possible that Caw was stunned into silence by this remark - after all, it was rather accurate. If you'd still be available to roll dice for Caw when needed, that'd be great, but I understand if you can't post during the time you're gone. (where are you going? I'm curious what kind of journey will take 20 days XD).

@Tangletail The 'grabbing the horse's reins' is appreciated, but unfortunately, I've already been going over some stuff with Eleven in PMs - since Seb might respond, and so forth. Please remove that part from your post. 😅

No problem! Fixed. He's now going to go check on Cassandra.

Also when is our new fellow jumping in?

I can definitely roll dice, yeah.

And if you're curious, I'm taking my girlfriend around Italy for those 20 days. Summer vacation (if a bit late) yay.

With that said, I can work on a post from trains if needed. Looks like I could get a short one in at some point and then move along with the rest.

Also oh, joy, commoners. Protection duty ahoy!
