I'm walking away indefinitely.

Tieronar

Tieronar sighs and gathers his gear.

"You all seem to have this in hand. My skills would be better used elsewhere. Good luck with all of this. I'm heading back to the Rangers to see what other missions they have for us."

Then the Brinchie heads out to go north.

Tieronar

Gang. thanks for the gameplay. I've been discussing this campaign with some of my local players and I've decided to leave. I've been finding it frustrating to wait days for the story to move on and the NPCs just haven't inspired creative roleplaying for me. And the focus on the site towards "pay for...

Tieronar

"Let us go then," the Brinchie says, shaking his head. "There are children dying and all this metropolis of horrible people can do is squabble about their petty wants. I wish to be away from here."

Tieronar

Tieronar steps down to stand beside Danyar.

"Agreed," the Brinchie replies, "The sooner we are away from this cesspool of dishonorable criminals, the better it will be."

Tieronar

Oh, the criminals who tried to ambush us.

Not exactly allies. Just people we aren't going to try to kill right now.

Tier still wants to burn them with fire and then scatter the ashes.

But right now, that would be inefficient.

Tieronar

My allies?

Tieronar

Coming out?

Tieronar

Tieronar cannot wait to be out of this city.

Pretty sure he hates everyone here that he did not arrive with.

Tier hides and watches, impatiently, not sure how long he should wait before going to rescue his friends.

Tieronar

LOL, right now Lysennia does NOT want Tieronar with her....

Bradon is probably the best bet.

Tieronar

I'm not sure what happened either. It happened because I kept exploding the dice. The invalid codes are a mis-type that I can't delete properly.

Tier slides back into the shadows, nodding to Danyar.

Tieronar smiles at Angis. "You did your party, tying up enough of them so that the rest of us could finish off these would-be assassins." The Brinchie looks back at Jack.

OK, just making sure.

Excellent job either way.

Tieronar

Did I miss something, how old is this brat? (Still, he ordered an ambush so even if he's 8, I'm good with ending him.)

Tieronar

I am rereading and it looks like somehow only 1 person is potentially dead. But he gets a 50% chance to live so this may have been the easiest battle without a death. Yet. Not a good idea to let enemies live once they've attacked you....we came to talk. They decided to attack. Tieronar marches the ...

So, is the delay in story advancement going to affect our "posts per week" thing?

As Danyar approaches, Tieronar pulls the Scout into an alcove.

"I. Have. A Few. More. Questions. For. You." Tier enunciates each word with a tap of his claw.

"Why...were you following and watching us?"

After that, he pauses to let Danyar ask a few questions.

Oh, Im not saying its a bad idea to have the skill and dice. For all fo the above reasons. I just like that Persuasion and Intimidate are two of the skills you can do without dice.

Tier is actually a Dark Lantern working for the Rangers (kind of a trial basis following fellow secret Dark Lantern Bradon)

I'm not fond of the random draw thing, because that opens the door to one player getting "One minor" and someone else getting "Two Major"

In a game like SW with balanced (mostly...some of the Shaintar stuff is broken) character generation, non randomness in advancement is key.
