    Runs away!? Excuse me? What, did that dwarf receive the Lebron James buff and just break everyone's ankles? You're telling me a football sized looking ass, two feet off the ground looking ass, toddler legs having ass dwarf is out running us? And one of our options is rest and recover??????????? What is he, freaking Deigo Maradona during his prime?

    Well third times the charm!

    We will have to get creative and maybe burn you to a crisp, pulverize you (turning you into dust) mix you with some warpstone and consume you little by little. >:)

  • Watches the earth split open above the hole in front of the Mage and a huge fireball fly down the gaping crevasse. Cooked rat isn't my favorite actually far from on the menu however the other fight took some out of me. A good ale will make it palatable...

    NEXT DEV DISCUSSION, I WILL BE ASKING ABOUT BATTLE THEFT!! How the hell did you lose a gem during a fight when the entirety of the system we know is that item loss occurs on deaths, not simply in battle.

    Otherwise there's a few explanations I can think of here:
    1) Ned Ctrl+F to search bags. You have it, it is just buried in a 120-item 5-backpack inventory.
    2) It was destroyed. Despite death being the consequences that correlates to a loss of resources, this gem was a special snowflake and it broke.
    3) The gem was expended somehow. I wanna say gems in the later Ultima series were use items that cast a spell effect. Whomever had it didn't even realize the first spell they cast was free because it expended the gem, and it should have been saved for a world-altering spell that a while religion would gather to use.
    4) It melted. It was just frozen dyed water, whomever thought it was a gem was an idiot and the rest of the party just kinda nodded and said "yeah uh huh, good job let's go" because the lunk thinks anything hard and translucent is a gem.
    5) It had a built-in timer, but nobody ever put their mouse cursor over it so they never looked.
    6) The party member who had it actually snuck off, ran ahead, tried to gank the ambush group, got one person down without a fight and turned red, then got jumped by the crew of the deceased who claimed the gem before getting into position for the people dressed the same way coming up the slope.

    Whatever the result, if it is a TTRPG, I'm chewing out the party for being so boneheaded as to move forward without direction instead of taking direction from the small treasure we found.

  • It is a trap, obviously. They will regroup at choke point and kill you if you run after them exhausted and with low health.

After all, how could we say no when you're all having so much fun ;)

    Was a much deserved break for all of you. The Intrepid team worked hard going into and through the pre-test.
    Hope you all had a good break and got lots of rest.
