In case you haven't noticed, Coyote Code has been swallowed by the internet. Not sure how many other rolls will be needed right now, but alternates will need to be used.

I made it and I don't trust it, so that should say enough. :P

Seriously though, I just used an outside library to handle the dice rolling, so... If the rolls are biased, blame the original author, not me. :roll:

Also technically I could edit the database rolls if I really wanted to... But I hope you'd trust in either my integrity to not do so, or at least my laziness to actually go find the credentials to enter into the database. :roll:

Well Mort's roller its been treating me pretty kindly so far, nothing below a 17. Probably just jinxed myself but so far it gets my, highly influential, seal of approval.

I mean, I just tried like 5 test rolls and got 4 under a ten, so... I think it's just confirmation bias at this point. :P

edit the library might have a slight tendency to maybe give crit fails/successes more than it should though..? I should maybe look at it sometime, but, well, that's work... :roll:

The only thing to watch out for with that roller is that it automatically ranks multiple rolls from highest to lowest in the output (e.g. if you roll 2d20, the highest roll is always given first in the output).

So if you're not sure if you need to apply advantage or disadvantage or not, I guess make two separate rolls (1d20 twice) or else you'll always default to getting the best possible option (highest first).

Ah, good to know. Separate rolls it is.

Because it works like that for me too, and there can always be more hostiles than there are party members?

I mean presumably that wouldn't matter as you know whether or not you're rolling at (dis) advantage in advance... :p

Maji is clearly a superdragonborn that can stand while sleeping.

So, are we planning on pursuing them once we regroup? It's going to be morning soonish after the fight and maybe easier to find them.

I guess we could use our non magical types as "sacrificial lambs" and have them go in front of the group. When they start dropping, we'll know we found the werejackals again.

Hey, he tried his darnedest to stay awake! :P

Dornikal doesn't mind being in the vanguard, but based on how the jackalweres handled it before they will likely just hide until the magical folks get there before popping out to sleep them.

So maybe we just clump up so we can wake the fallen?

Was there any criteria as to who can spot Ily?

What nobody knows is, if Renny didn't get put to sleep, he'd somehow start kicking ass... Don't question it. :P
