Kroshav would have cleaned up before last night, but he doesn't get as bad as sweaty mammals, more of the scent of striking flint and steel.

I don't think his palms would be hairy, no.
My game:
Hunters of Letrua; Character list
Also Player / Monster stats, skill lists.

My characters:
Tugs Tails, the goblin that was sort of a trapper and wears a bear's tail at his neck, for some reason - Lair of the Mountain King (Run by Thinks)

Mehriv Turajin, a Noble Dragonborn Sorcerer sent from his clan because he wasn't dragony enough. - The Wandering Archipelago (Run by Thinks)

The only reason I ask is because my dog's pads are not hairy but the space between is so hairy it actually gets under them. I pictured Lurns hands like monkey hands but the pictures online don't bear this out.

I see firbolgs as just... Bigger Scottish people, basically. Since that's where the myths they're based on originate. Thick coarse hair, more than normal, but hardly covered in it. And also blue.

What color is the skin under the fur? Blue or...?

It is actually kind of nice you split the party, I get to use two of the scenarios I wrote up rather than one.

I think blue skin, reddish fur. But the newer art of them is tanned skin.

If any of them did it, including Joe, I think it was at least somewhat justified...

Alright my thoughts so far.

Dwarven lady-angry and reasonably so, possible scapegoat to get charged with murder, red herring.

Young Man- Nervous about the situation, seems unlikely to be the killer

Old man-unlikely to be the killer

Gnome-perverted bastard, he also doesn’t know what he did last night, maybe the murderer

Young woman-a bit shifty, and is possibly the killer

Joe-innocent of murder


I do agree she had it coming.

I think we may have gotten lucky with our roll to be near the main general's tent.
Much better then the deal with wyverns or right behind the main fighting line.

Yep, enjoyed the storyline.

It was also one of the harder points to pop out, only the wyverns were potentially tougher. There was a higher chance of random encounters and Fadris was no pushover but you swarmed her and got the mage before he dropped another fireball.

Glad you thought it was engaging!

Yet again, my rolls were godly. Put us in the best place possible. :P

It is interesting to see how our actions influenced the course of things, too. Though if that with with a few things reducing the chance of random encounters, it's concerning that it was near constant encounters. XD

You were literally in the middle of an enemy army, you were expecting to go unnoticed after you burned a tent? :P

Hey, WE didn't burn it! It's the mage's fault!

And you all killed him to death as punishment for his indiscretion!

If I remember right, Lurn didn't kill the mage to death in any way. He just participation in the slaughter outside and scared a bunch of goblins.

Quick note since I'd quickly looked into it:
If Jaq goes with removing his arm, the ways I can find to get a new one are limited to Regeneration, Resurrection, and True Resurrection. Regeneration is the best option, since it wouldn't involve killing Jaq, and only cost 25 silver to make holy water for that spell (The other two consume 10k and 25k gold pieces), but it's still a level 7 spell, so Lurn can't use that sort of magic for a long, long time yet.

Yeah, I doubt he'll really want to go that way, but if those two clerics can cast regeneration, that may actually be the way to go.

Opened a spot for someone new to join in recruitment as Thinks is away. She is always welcome back, of course, but five felt like a good number to have.

I'll give it to Sunday and, if there are no other interested parties to compete against, spot's yours.

There is a paladin in the group now but he is pretty lame so it'd be a welcome addition I would think...

Maybe a smart paladin would be welcome change of pace...

Just like the other job interview I had today....

Sorry I thought spider was a wizard

Good luck with the job!

We got one of those and we got a PC paladin. He (Spider) is a devotion paladin, as is the NPC. Honestly doesn't bother me to have two paladins if you want to be one. You can check out the first page of this for list of the characters and classes.
