PbP Game Thread - Braye's Troubles

Should I assume you guys finished the conversation?

God I hope so, been like a week since we've done anything Q_Q

[BRP]

Spoiler: show

Let's get everyone replying at least once to confirm we can get started again. Seems we had a little break there.

i was expecting hammer or other NPC would jump in for the past few days now

[BRP]

Spoiler: show

Hammer doesn't really know anything at all. He won't be much of a social influence on the party anyway.

[Maguspk]

Spoiler: show

Let's move on then, we're doneeee

[Bagel]

Spoiler: show

yes

[Zilong]

should run like a deus ex machina rule where if a conversation isn't finished within a certain amount of time (say, 24 hours?) it's assumed that it's done and you can continue the DM narration

[BRP]

Spoiler: show

Alright, I'll adopt that policy. And a initiative = post order rule too. But one thing. When posting you turn... post first, then go back and edit it. If anyone else sees this placeholder, wait until the guy is done.

I'm going to post tomorrow, way too tired today. Sorry for delays.

EDIT:

Make that late tonight... something is distracting me lol

You make it out of the tavern. There is a certainly a feeling of chaos in the air as you look around. While the fires seem contained, several houses are ablaze. Some people are scattered around the streets, some of them owners of said houses. There is a dead hobgoblin in the middle of the street, but otherwise there doesn't seem to be any criminals are the scene.

As you walk onto the main street, you see a crowd of people screaming and running passed you. It seems they are trying to escape something.

[Maguspk]

Noah tries to ask people what they're running from as they run by.

"What's out there?!"

[BRP]

"A giant! Gods be damned, a giant is coming!"

[Zilong]

"Looks like this will be a long night" Variz sighed as he looked at the direction from where the people are running from.

Going to be a slow weekend for me, but I'm going to get this up asap so you guys can make your moves. Will edit this post in 30 minutes or so.

[Bagel]

"A giant eh? Maybe we should be heading that way." Somoe points in the direction the populace are fleeing, away from the giant.

[BRP]

Just as Somoe finishes her sentence, a loud thunderous roar echoes through the street you stand on. To your north you see an ogre pulling a wagon with two hobgoblins armed with bows and plenty of casks. Within the ogre's hands are a lit cask and a huge club. They have noticed you and seem to be turning your way, but don't see you as a threat.

Roll initiative. The grass isn't lava or anything, you walk on it, but not the bushes.

I have to apologize for my crappy performance and tardiness. This weekend is going to suck(a lot of stuff going on) and it must be annoying considering we seemingly stopped for awhile, but from here on, I'll try to do a lot better.

[Zilong]

Spoiler: show

initiative roll = 12

Perception check on the surrounding, if there are any possible improvised weapons or covers of sort around, also on the wagon's content, and whether or not a well placed fire would be able to ignite it, and whether or not anymore enemies is lurking around on the area. Nature check on the Ogre.
Perception (if it's not passive based) and Nature check

Will post sets of action once I know the initiative order

[BRP]

Spoiler: show

Btw, initiative is still working by this system: When you post, it happens in that order. I'm asking for initiative for the monster's sake.

But remember, post a placeholder first, then everyone waits until you finish that.

[Bagel]

Spoiler: show

Somoe's Initiative (1d20=13)

Hammer's Initiative (1d20+2=3)

[Maguspk]

Spoiler: show

Initiative (1d20-1=4)

Gah, my intiative luck sucks..
