This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Akrasia;443149"Let us rest for a few minutes and eat some of our rations before proceeding," Bryce proposes.

"I think it would be best if we try to conduct our business here before night approaches."

"Hiya Bryce. A bit of rest would be most welcome afore we enter the ruins." nodding as I eye the entrance...setting my bow aside and sitting to get into my pack.
Form the group wisely, make sure you share goals and means.
Set norms of table etiquette early on.
Encourage attentive participation and speed of play so the game will stay vibrant!
Allow that the group, milieu and system will from an organic symbiosis.
Most importantly, have fun exploring the possibilities!

How long are you going to rest for? Give me a hard number of hours, and I'll move time forward.

I agree as well I suppose. I tried to find where in the rules it talks about recovering magic points and have so far been unsuccessful.

OOC: It's on p. 44 under 'Regaining Magic Points.'  It looks like we should rest for at least two hours so you guys can regain 1/4 of your Magic Points used.  We could rest for just an hour, but then you would only regain 1/8 of your Magic Points used.

Ty, in that case 2 hours might be better :)

Sure, two hours would be fine with me.

I've only used two magic points, so I don't think it makes any difference to me.

Two hours it is. It'll be just after lunch-time by the time you get going again.

After all the excitement so far, you break for a few hours to rest up, eat some lunch, and check your gear. It's just after lunch now.

"My friends, shall we head into the temple now, and attempt to liberate the poor king?"

Bryce communicates with his familiar: "Devin, please keep watch outside for any threats."

The nervous sorcerer readies his light crossbow, keeping the words for some helpful spells forefront in his mind.

Alric opens his eyes and rises to his feet, takes a last swig of water, and then nods wearily to Bryce.

Devin flies overhead, cawing back the all-clear after he's surveyed the area. It appears your earlier effort banishing one of the ghosts has kept any others that might be around from showing themselves, at least for now...
