Investigating (possibly) dead bodies and (presumably) damsels in distress aren't in Skjoldur's job description. Keeping his host/employer alive is.

Ig'nernt question time: I missed the memo on what a JIC roll is.

Pat - you asked about my character sheet. All the info is pretty much in Skjoldur's thread, but I'll expand on it to make things more obvious.

JIC = Just In Case, as in "just in case the DM needs to make a perception roll for you.

or acrobatics or sense motive, or whatever Smile

I should reiterate, however, what I mean by declare your actions. I am going to put up an interactive map here very shortly, so you can move yourself.

Everyone has a Standard Action, Move Action and no more than 4 free actions. Free actions can include a short phrase of talking or other actions which will mean you say less (see the SRD and your feats/skills for examples) - "I see a body" is an example of a short phrase - in general keep it to less than 6-8 syllables or so. That's not a hard fast rule, just a general rule to use by. The other option is to say aloud what you want to say and ensure you can say it less than 6 seconds.

So declaring your actions might include:

Standard Action: Look around for the shadowed figure
Move Action: Move my speed towards the body and draw my weapons (the latter assuming you have a +1 BAB).
Free Action: Speech

Well, I thought I had that down in the narrative that I'd written, but to clarify if it wasn't:

Free Action #1: summon Big Dog via our link.

Free Action #2: assume natural form, more of a roleplaying choice than anything affecting what I'm gonna do.

Free Action #3: tell Maargash where I'm going.

Standard Action: prepare myself for potential battle, draw weapon & so forth.

Move Action: walk toward the body.

Thanks - it's just easier to see it all when it's laid out on a sheet proper - if you want, there are text pathfinder sheets you can use instead: https://somag.rpg-board.net/t125-character-sheets#2247 or the PDF one is in that same thread.

Steven: It's just easier to expressly say it after the narrative for the ease of all. I gathered what you were doing, but it's always better to say unequivocally what you are doing. Kinda like when Jeff is playing magic he announces the phases just to make sure he doesn't miss anything. He doesn't need to, but it's a useful mnemonic for the ease of all involved.

I've uploaded the tactical map to google docs and you can now move your own mini about. if you want to move, please do. For ease of dealing with movement - we'll use 4E movement rules online - ie diagonals are the same as horizontal or vertical movements in terms of movement squares. 5 ft = 1 square, as normal.

I've moved Hundwin. With a move of 40 ft. he can get himself from point A to point B fairly quick.

Just an FYI, Jodi, I fixed a spelling error in your post.  You'd written "form" when you obviously meant "from."  Grammar Nazi is taking control more and more often.  Somebody help me!

I've been waiting for somebody to post.

Here's an idea, just for discussion for right now, but how about we start a non-dice-using roleplay? By that I mean something more like a cooperative storytelling project. I've done this before (more than once, actually), and it can be a lot of fun, and you don't have to wait for people to make posts with rolls or for their to be a GM (although having at least one person with a general idea of where the story should be going or at least handling the part of the "bad guys" is often a good idea). It might make for a fun exercise in anticipation of NaNoWriMo.

Thoughts? If so, I'm gonna nip over to the New Lands of Make Believe forum and start a discussion thread there.

Sorry guys, part of this is me staying on folks to stay active. Anna has pretty much given up, and Tony has been super busy of late - my own situation has been anything but ideal as well. I will move us forward soon (this week sometime). Sorry everyone!
