All is well on my side. Still looking forward to deep learning the system.

I'm not dead!

Still around, just slowed due to work and what-not.  Good lord, I work too much... I should have been a firefighter.

Recovering from COVID. I'll be back in a day or two.

And then the new year came. Good Lord, work was busy, but I return!

I'm back as well.

Wewt!

Gm still with us?

Yep - he was on just yesterday.  I think we're mostly waiting on IC PC responses.

I am; I had hoped for interactions to happen or initiative from the players, as is the spirit of running, to happen.
I check daily, and a few times on and off, but if I can do anything do advise, and I will gladly progress if needs be.

For the sake of it all, I will let you guys align until Monday and the move the game forward. If no one disagrees, hopefully that will kickstart things.

I've been kind of slacking partly because I'm not sure who to wait for or if I should push forward even if a few folks are silent. Monday's fine.

Down with food poisoning. Its causing other issued to put me down for a few days.

Sorry, miswrote. The gangers are inside, you have made no indication of going inside, so that line makes no sense.
You see them go upstairs, but you are NOT near. So this may cause a change, unless you simply run with it and go inside and up ahead of them showing up.

If they're not focused on us in particular, I'm good with heading in. It sounded like they might have been responding to a crew of strangers, at least one in Ancients gear, Assensing near the front door.

Blood sugar when wild during food poisoning. first day back.

Is there anything you would like outside normal for summoning a guiding spirit?

Not at this case no, by all means.

In the event that Siren has a critical success after the chromers' resistance, I'm just going to spitball some options here for the GM:
1. The Orcs are impressed and friendly instead of mad that we broke up a good fight or threatened by a mysterious interloper.
2. The chromers are so terrified of whatever the hell Siren is that they won't try to get even later.
3. One or both gangs or some civilians assume Siren is something more than metahuman. Is she a dragon, a free spirit, some sort of manifested AI, a Fourth Age Elven Warlord? Who knows!

For reference, the elevator and escalator(on two seperate actually) lead downwards to the underground if needs be.

Cool, that's what I thought. Siren's plan is to get into the Underground proper before KE gets out of their cars.

Quick heads-up: out of town for the weekend camping with my daughter.  Back Sunday night or Monday, probably won't be able to post much/at all.

I am largely about until Tuesday.

I will forward the scene, assuming you go below. I have been on and off for sometime and my pardons for that. Hope to return to great degree of activity.

Did we get the traditional half payment up front? That would have been before I joined.

Yes - that was offered earlier, and also extends to you. Apologies for missing this!

Apolgies, but I reckon at this point I will call the game - while I love and had many plans for where the game could go, many books and adventures - the input back is limited and I have long lost wind and desire to keep providing updates.
Further, I also have wondered if this is due to how I run it, but regardless, it is not joy for anyone it seems, and that is a darn shame.
For what it is worth, I am sorry beyond word if that is the case. However, I would rather offer all here the chance to flourish where they do best, and not hold you here :)

I will leave the game up, partly if I should change my mind, partly if I find a new angle or if you have anything to say or share. You are also more than free to dip out without a word. I will understand and ask for nothing here.

Thank you all regardless for a wonderful game, and fun moments.
