Re: Skill practice and challenge
Here's what it's like to practice Dodge now: You consider your combat capability vs that of a restless skeleton ... With melee combat you figure it'd be a significant challenge. With ranged combat you figure it'd be a bit of a challenge. You quietly get into position to stalk a restless skeleton as ...

Re: Random Encounters!
1. Horse gets spooked, I get thrown off. 2. Horse runs away, and I end up having to ask someone who is faster (or sighted, depending on the person) to help me find said horse. 3. I then have to find the way back to the road, not always easy when I'm already off it, and wandering aimlessly. I sympat...

Re: Funny stuff thread
You head east. [Mistral Lake, Town Square] (OutUr) Mid Afternoon, Mild You also notice a copper-edged large wooden crate (open), some wanted posters hung on the back of a large post board, a wooden trash barrel, a community post board, a copper water pump, a grumpy pumpkin-lantern labeled "cai...

Re: Funny stuff thread
You see a headless lord. It is riding an icy-eyed black nightmare steed. A mad, malevolent laughter emanates from within the blackness of your breastplate's neck! You state (muffled by a mask), "I see." You head northeast, riding your chestnut horse. Descriptions were redacted -- find out...

Re: Town militias: Shadgard Coydogs and the Mistwatch
Citizens of Shadgard who want to aid their settlement during an attack can already do so. I'm less certain about Mistveil Keep's view of the matter. I'm hesitant to give too much "official" authority to player characters, so I suggest some very limited powers for player characters who are ...

Mentor Lounge Additions
I think it might be useful to implement an object in the OOC Mentor Lounge that allows players to test out canned socials (including ones from hiding) so that they know what those socials look like when seen by others. Maybe a mirror of some type?

Re: The new permit for the 2Falls mine
I'm speaking only for myself, here, but the way I play COGG is that I never have the expectation that the GMs will be paying attention to my characters, reacting to my characters, or developing plans for my characters. My characters just do things; anything else is gravy. I think that philosophy has...

Re: The new permit for the 2Falls mine
Good observations, Deborah. I would suggest raising the issue with people in-character, since the events at Two Falls Mine are part of the overarching narrative that's unfolding between the Mistveil Dominion and Shadgard.

New England Hurricane Warning
(Note: I am not a meteorologist. Listen to local news and heed any official advisories.) If you live in New England in the United States or the Maritimes in Canada -- especially in Maine and Nova Scotia -- be aware that Hurricane Lee is currently on track to make landfall along the North Atlantic Co...
