Dungeons and Dragons Online
I'm joining a DDO group looking to meet Sunday afternoons and take the same characters from level 1 on up together. It's a free to play MMO like World of Warcraft but classier. If you've ever wanted to try online fantasy adventure roleplaying but been shy to stick your toe in the water, here's a chance to join a group at level one who'll have your back.
profile addy is good if you're interested
BSG (Cally)
Holy crap, I'm really glad you got that hit, Baltar; now I feel less bad about getting a nuke back instead of shooting at a Heavy.
Oh dear, Leoben is preparing to infiltrate. Presumably so he can spike our checks harder? Hm.
BSG (Apollon)
Oh, how nice, an extra action. I
activate the Resurrection ship to draw another super crisis.
BSG (Leoben)
Smooth, Apollo.
Cally, I'm coming to help. I can't imagine why you wouldn't realize that.
BSG
Card sent. That concludes the State of Emergency. I'm not really sure why Food falls. Maybe that's the emergency. "We're out of power bars!" Or maybe there's been a
Security Breach
Skill Check (6 GP)
Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
I'm not really sure why Food falls.
All that extra moving and actioning burns up calories. Gotta feed the monkey.
BSG (Cally)
Ergh, so this is a low check, but we really need to pass it since Adama needs his full card draw. Because of my weakness, I can either help a lot or not at all. How does it look? I will have my Quick Fix at the ready.
BSG (Adama)
Pass on interrupts
I can help with the check
BSG
Everyone passes on interrupts. The check begins:
Security Breach:
6 GP
Destiny:
2 cards
Leoben:
0 cards
Apollo:
0 cards
Adama:
Dee:
Baltar:
Cally:
Adama is up next. Everyone else, you can send me COs.
BSG (Cally)
Okay, if the Cylons are sitting this one out, then I will too because otherwise I think we'll overplay, and I'd rather save my cards for a higher check.
Does that sound feasible? Dee and Baltar, can you help?
