Wait, wasn't that the Leper who had even lower Acc than usual? He seems to be doing well.

Yes. He didn't miss once, even when I had him Chop the courtier with 13 dodge. Very clutch.

A lot of classes and skills seem to have gotten buffed since when I played last year. Still, the Leper's attacks have a base accuracy of 75 which should still be lower than normal. But maybe it was 65 before?

I volunteeer for the roster. Any class, basically, but it seems that nobody wanted to be Hellion yet, so I can be one.

That should allow me to show my female side a bit. :codexisforindividualswithgenderidentityissues:

I would not mind being a Jester, Highwayman or Grave Robber either, if you get one of these on the wagon instead.

Week 4: Imoen's Immaculate Syphillis

(sneak preview, report coming)

Nekot getting treated for kleptomania. Leather strap restraints seem appropriate.

What's the worst that could happen by a little reading?

dd0443.jpg

Fuck. Imoen contracted syphillis FROM READING A BOOK.

dd0444.jpg


dd0446.jpg


dd0447.jpg


dd0448.jpg

SIXTH fight so far.

dd0450.jpg


dd0451.jpg


dd0454.jpg

Fuck. THREE meal checks. This might be the end for Reinhardt.

dd0460.jpg

Setting up a two-fer.

BLAH. BLAH.

One down, one left.

dd0465.jpg


dd0466.jpg


dd0467.jpg


dd0468.jpg

Not a moment too soon.

dd0470.jpg

Wow. Check out that lewt.

dd0471.jpg

dd0500.jpg

Is that... Celerity's music I hear?!

dd0504.jpg


The week 5 wagon brought us two more Codex brothers - Eriador and Janise.
dd0505.jpg


dd0506.jpg


We also picked up Sawyer, a redshirt Crusader. To make room, we dismissed Reynauld (THIEF!), Dismas (he needed a vacation), The Hound (terrible quirks) and Imoen (I'm too cheap to pay for her syphillis treatment)

dd0507.jpg

The gypsy woman wants to sell us this nice cloak.

dd0508.jpg

Getting closer to being ready for Crimson Court. I'm kind of sick of ruin runs, but it has the deeds reward this week.

We still have several vacancies for Codexians to fill:
Vestal
Houndmaster
Antiquarian

Week 5: Janise's Crucible

dd0510.jpg

We dropped off Reinhardt at the pub. He's developed a gaming addiction.

dd0511.jpg

And Dayyalu at the Sanitarium for Yips treatment. Why must it always be leather straps?

dd0512.jpg

Our party: Cable, Nevill, Janise and Eriador. A standard abomination party.

dd0514.jpg

The map is thankfully straightfoward.

dd0515.jpg

Two steps and we get our first fight.

dd0516.jpg


dd0517.jpg

That was easy.

dd0518.jpg

It's a trap! The courtier and cultist go after Janise hard.

dd0519.jpg

Cthulhu can't help you if you're in front position. And a man-at-arms sucks in the back.

dd0520.jpg

Guess Eriador will just have to CURSE HARDER.

dd0521.jpg

Ambushed by a courtier and a cultist? BEAST MODE.

dd0522.jpg

HEAD BUTT U BACK TO HELL.

dd0523.jpg

Eriador's curse set up this easy kill for Nevill.

dd0524.jpg

By round two we're still kind of a mess, and this group is not good at all at hitting the enemy end position.

dd0525.jpg

Gotta keep cursing.

dd0526.jpg

Nevill can fight from anywhere.

dd0527.jpg

HEAD BUTT U TO HELL. Note that Janise is about to go insane. Someone insane already two rooms in. What a disaster.

dd0528.jpg

KEEP CURSING.

Janise's turn - will it be PARANOIA? MASOCHISM?


dd0529.jpg

CLUTCH.

dd0530.jpg

Seriously, that saved the expedition.

dd0531.jpg

VIGOROUS HEAD BUTT U TO HELL.

dd0532.jpg

END IT.

dd0533.jpg

We take two more steps and look: a madman and a cultist. Game hates us.

dd0534.jpg

That speed buff they gave abominations is awesome.

dd0535.jpg

Now I will spank you with Cthulhu's appendages.

dd0536.jpg

Each will get their deserved spanking.

dd0537.jpg


dd0538.jpg


dd0541.jpg

In your face.

dd0542.jpg


dd0543.jpg

I can HEAL!

dd0545.jpg

END IT.

dd0546.jpg

Surprised. Again.

dd0547.jpg

In last position, all Janise can do is pray. Which is what Janise does the entire fight.

dd0548.jpg

Cthulhu spanks both the living and the dead.

dd0549.jpg

BACK!

dd0550.jpg

Forward!

dd0551.jpg

By round two, things are looking much better.

dd0552.jpg

Marked.

dd0553.jpg

Cursed.

dd0555.jpg

Crushed.

dd0554.jpg

Chopped.

dd0556.jpg

Squeezed.

dd0557.jpg


dd0559.jpg

Some pests right before the last room.

dd0560.jpg

A second madman + cultist group. Sigh.

dd0561.jpg

Just like last time.

dd0562.jpg

All target the madman first!

dd0563.jpg

Whiffed. That 20 dodge...

dd0564.jpg

SPLAT.

dd0565.jpg

Even the dead find the spooj attack offensive.

dd0566.jpg

13 is a lucky number FOR ME.

dd0568.jpg

Get over here...nope.

dd0569.jpg

But the stun got him.

dd0571.jpg

Let's try THIS curse.

dd0570.jpg

Not mising twice.

dd0573.jpg

I'd feel sorry for the guy but he's already undead.

dd0574.jpg

OVER.

dd0575.jpg


dd0576.jpg

LEWT.

dd0577.jpg

Eh. Unfortutely, Eriador's Yips locked.

dd0600.jpg

Reinhardt... WON money.

Comte arrived with the week six wagon.
dd0601.jpg


We also picked up Nalia, a redshirt Antiquarian. To make room, we dismissed Sawyer and Jorah Moremont.

dd0602.jpg


dd0603.jpg

So I guess that since the Yips is locked now, it can't be removed anymore?

It can, just more expensive. I have to check how much.

But since it's already locked, we'll just roll with it for now until we can upgrade the sanitarium.

We're doing quite well, all things considered. No disastrous missions yet, no one dead or insane, nice coffers, and on schedule to purchasing a vinters district. Hero distribution is about average. Considering that there are 16 classes, on average it takes 4 weeks for any one class to arrive so we're about right for week 6 (we haven't seen a Hellion, Highwayman and Graverobber yet).

I'm moving and starting next semester these days, so I'm not sure when the next update will be.
