Out of Character discussion

The 2E AD&D Homebrew Sandbox world of Genwald is large, ancient, and magical. There are many undiscovered/untamed places. The Sun Kingdom (European style, Late Medieval Human NG Monarchy) is the basic Campaign area, but PCs can end up anywhere.

The scars of ancient battles of titanic proportions mark the land. Wild magic zones, fantastical terrain, grand adventure, political strife, and even artifacts of wonder await. Choose your part and come make your mark on the world. A wide array of unconventional races and classes are available.

I was trying to show that Katten is excited to be home but I got a little carried away.

ausie wrote:"I almost died defending your home!" Garroth grows. "I do not claim you harm the Forrest but will point out that threatening and harming one that freey gives their life to defend it is the same thing."

(It should be noted that Garroth always had his maul, even when kneeling, it was in his left hand on the ground beside him, so it was always in his hand.. he actually did the opposite of reaching towards it by placing it head first on the ground and resting his arm on the upright handle. When walking, he carries and walks with it like a staff. This might change their actions... nonobserver could have possibly though he was trying to arm himself...)

"Come Thoreau..if I say here I will likely be forced to endure more insults and not be permitted to make any..."

. Garroth picks up his cat and his maul, just under the head, and turns his back on the speakers and resumes travel toward Bordertown...
if he always had his hand on his maul, why did you feel the need to say "Garroth rests one wrist on top of the maul handle," implying his hand was closer to the handle

Also, the only 'insult' they seem to have given him is not immediately trusting a complete stranger's word and a very slight emphasis when the woman said 'minotaur'.

As for the threat, that didn't happen until Garroth moved 'one wrist on top of the maul handle'

If you could edit your post a little for clarification, that would help.

I was going for the "place the weapon down and lean on it conveniently" act, the same as a Palafin would do with a great sword..

I though I was descriptive prevuously that he uses his maul like a walking stick, and mentioned a few times he was using it as a crutch.

All good - made for some interesting role play. In future, unless stated, he travels with the maul as a staff, or walking stick. Holding it under the head as he walks..

Thanks for putting in the edit for clarification.

I'll go back and make some adjustments to the reactions accordingly.

It was just a very unfortunate placement in the sentence to mention his hand on the handle of the weapon resulting in some ambiguity..

Welp! Linar's use of "van" is exactly why I chose it for the root of Vanidur. This Illusionist likes to be in the rear with the gear... Looks like that may have backfired!

:D

The vanguard (also called the advance guard) is the leading part of an advancing military formation. It has a number of functions, including seeking out the enemy and securing ground in advance of the main force.
