Kuori already already ran off into the forest so if you want to talk with her or at least here the answer to her question you will have to follow her.

Aw well sad I tried to incorporate it into my post, but I guess it happened before I even started. Let me figure out how to edit it to reflect that.

I just need to know if you are going in the forest with everyone else.

Yes No Yes No I'm entering the forest but I have slower speed due to heavy armor, so I'm intending to follow after them. Or rather, follow after the soldiers. I might not be able to see them, but it'll wear off soon and 20 armored soldiers tromping through the woods should leave me relatively unnoticed by forest-dwellers, I should think.

Hehe, there are a lot of assumptions going on here, in particular about the potions being used and the soldier's skill at moving through the forest unnoticed. I guess everyone will find out.

Stealth check above ...

Whelp, here goes something stupid.

Their are no auto fails or auto succeeds on skill checks in 4rth, so you might still be successful on a check while rolling a 1

Nature of 20 to get there. Since I'm still going slower, and not out-right running there (especially if it helps keep my bearings), I am content you going a while before I show up. I prefer realism over convenience!

You can climb down without another check; I'm not that mean. (Actually I completely forgot about you making another check. xd )

The trip to the den through the forest actually takes about 2 hours. The forest is too thick to run through so everyone is going at a walking pace. Granted, since you are in plate mail it would be a little slower going for you, but not to the same extent you are thinking.

There is actually some time delay going on here in the posts. When Hakka was talking to Ying, that was taking place in the future compared to when you guys were talking to the soldiers. She really only had a 30 minute head start on you guys with another 10 or 15 minutes added when you guys delayed the soldiers. When Hakka started talking to Ying, you guys were already roughly an hour and a half into your journey to the den. Now everyone is about to get caught back up on the same time.

Lol I hope this wasn't confusing; I'm just trying to give a better understanding of what was going on.

Well, I know the time delay isn't someone getting there in 10 minutes vs 10 minutes and 6 seconds. I suspected the difference between my arrival and, say, Hakka and Gloom's, is probably a good 15-20 minutes difference, though. Maybe more. Which is why I say run the scene for them as is, don't worry about including me until you think the time appropriate.

(Out of curiosity, DM....For the stealth check....was mine even close to hers or maybe a smidge higher or way way lower?)

I usually don't discuss npc details prior to the game's end but I will let you know that your base stealth bonus is almost as good as Ying's when she is in monster form. However, when she uses her camouflage ability it raises her stealth bonus much higher.

Heh, that's pretty freaking cool though that I could stack up so well. Thank you for satisfying my curiosity.

...I'm not sure how to follow up a post like that...  

[Kowsauni]

I was leaving it open in case anyone had any questions they wanted to ask or anything they wanted to try and do before the fight. If no one posts soon I'll just advance story.

I noticed you rolled but you didn't post anything in the main thread. Did you just run out of time this morning or did your post not go through?  

[PupSage]

I was at work, had to do work.
