[Meta Thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

Flashbacks work too!(...)

That's also true, good point. Though I always felt like these are a tad bit less priority and - depending on the current scene and setting - bit of a hassle to deal with for both player and GM while outplaying a different scene in real time, aka you're technically at two spots/in two events at the same time. Still they're better than nothing indeed, thanks for reminding of the possibility to flashback, Iron - I have like completely forgotten about these here to be honest.

So, mates, I got a quick question for all of you - after todays event are done, do you want to ‘skip’ to the next major events , or play out the days between? Bit abrupt to ask this, so to explain: I got a few thing cooking that I think would make for some good fun as a group or not, but need to be spaced out for plot reasons. Add onto the fact that the city is on lockdown for a bit - not that’d it would stop most of the PCs - and there would not a whole lot to do IC unless you guys want to indulge Fortune and her sister Lady Luck. So I had the idea to cut the gaff, so to speak.

If you take it, I’ll list how many day would be ‘skipped’ , and you can make a list of stuff your PCs would like to do. Moreover, the time ‘skipped’ would count against any time limits or quest progression, unless you want it to be. For example Vern’s search for a biiig Wailmer wouldn’t leave him behind, or Spah won’t get worse if Bern can’t cure her today.

So…what do you think, mates?

After the current thingy gets wrapped up I don't really have any big plans so a skip of the less eventful days is totally fine.  I'll get to writing up a list

Man...everyone sure is having fun. Wish Oz was doing something along with doing the protein to the medics. However I said she would help the medics, but I do miss do some action to get some XP since my team gonna need.

About the downtime it would be good. And maybe to Oz have a bond moment with the others of the group. At the moment Oz only had interactions with Seddi, so I wish she could interacted with the others members of the group to know everyone better. Maybe more future interactions.

Flashbacks are awesome to do while the GM is busy.


mods are asleep post actual roleplay in the roleplay forum

A thought that just now came to me: Wasn't Oz like scared of Bernhard because of their Scimitar Status? I remember something along the lines, and I remember you saying that it is something related to Oz's past. Either way I see potential here for meaningful interactions between these two, for opportunities of chara development, read: ways to help Oz work through that fear with the help of my PC.

Well...I can't tell anything at the moment. This will be something it will be needed to be discovered though playing the game. But depending in how the battle against the Monstrum go, maybe a revelation will happen. Only future will tell.

Indeed! Bernard is one of the characters I very curious to Oz to interact. Along with @Redstone character since something about his character looks...familiar to her.

Sorry if takes so long to answer this post.

I had a few plans to Oz go hunt for a extra Pokemon to get as partner, since we only have little time to prepare to our battle against the Maestrum Monstrum, and it would be good to wisely use our time, since I pretty scared with the possiblity of Oz Pokemon to die, since the system in your campaigh can be unforgiven without any necessary preparations (no wonder I choose to be the Healer of the group!) but I dont know if the currently events happening at the moment will let me prepare myself though.

Welp, guess Seddi's not getting any help or advice from Bernhard any time soon whether it was going to happen in the next encounter not.

*Shrugs* That the way the Fortune cookie crumbles. I will throw you a bone, though : Zephy has access to Bern’s phone, and is willing to answer questions! She ain’t an expert in Magic like he is, but she’s still pretty Knowledgeable in her own right, and may have takes different from what Bern would make.

Heads up, tho - your Current Encounter is stretching into your 3rd one, with how long it has been + Seddi getting whammied by weird magic stuff.

Noted.  Was thinking about sending out some queries in Bernhard's direction after that additional sweep with the new perspective, so that should work out fine.

Good to know!  Gonna need to wrap this initial investigation up soon and get everyone besides Ianai together to meet the Professor properly in encounter 4.
