I want a few grenades because I don't have firearms proficiency and I don't have very many damage spells.
I can take advantage of my damage reduction to use frag grenades creatively.

Tin Hat just gives most items directly to Silver. This doesn't mean they are for Silver. This means that Silver, and not Tin Hat, is in charge of distribution. This includes

The radio (yes, the radio)
Two Fragmentation grenades
Three demolition kits
two smoke grenades
four potions of cure moderate wounds
A camera

Specific to creatures:
box of 12 gauge shells to Silver
Two healing kits to Silver

Box of .45 to Garv

Feather token to Posey
horse blinders to Posey
Sewing kit to Posey

Box of 9mm to brie

Four healing kits to Defiant Dust

You keep referring to things that are not in the d20 SRD, and do not show up at all in a Bing search. I have to change devices to go to my phone to try to get anything to show at all, and even then, it's rarely what you're talking about, but something adjacent. Like yesterday with "black weave," there is nothing at all that shows on d20srd.org, nothing on any kind of bing search with words like "spells" or "dungeons and dragons" or d&d 3.5." The closest I could get to anything other than hair products was an article about a "black weave" as a kind of spell caster on my phone when I looked it up, and even then it named a class. It did not name a group of spells. Same thing now with "commander aura," and "avatar of guidance."

Do you think you could consolidate your posts into a single post, or at least, make fewer single sentence replies? In speaking with Tenebrous's player he'll say things like "Oh, there's been 250 replies." I know it discourages him from playing. Also, taking up a higher number of posts kills the thread quicker and makes it harder to load, especially on my phone.

The feather token is for the party, to become an emergency boat. Posey will hold onto it though.
Although, Rosey Ring has demonstrated that she has debilitating sea sickness, so it may be wider to hand it off to silver >>179239

Rosey Ring immediately starts knitting Kira's sock with her horn, taking advantage of her unseen servant to knit from both ends. It shouldn't take her long to make a very long sock.

Can't have everything. We'll manage.
>Fragmentation grenades
Rosey Ring would like to take one grenade.
>black weave
It's a lore term that just means the Githyanki term for "negative energy". I borrowed it from a dungeon magazine article. It doesn't actually mean anything except "Necromancy spells that DON'T create undead".
Posey explained what it was in-character when she met Diligent Debride. I thought we were on the same page, sorry.
>Commander
I thought I brought those up at the beginning of the game. I guess it wasn't relevant at the time though. They're from Heroes Of Battle, the book about war and mass combat. I used Posey's to buff the ghast when we fought the mushroom monster in the temple.

When you put it that way, it sounds pretty annoying... I'll do better.
I have a habit of geeking out about this stuff. I will try to be more considerate.
>Do you think you could consolidate your posts into a single post, or at least, make fewer single sentence replies?
Seconding this request. It makes the thread harder to read.

Also, the orange text is difficult to read and contributes nothing, and ngl 3/4 times I just don't read it.

Silver gives one of the two frag grenades to Posey, though before he relinquishes full control over the item he looks at her with a very serious expression. "Do you know how you use these? Will you be responsible with it, and do your best to avoid catching other party members in blast?"

Silver takes the radio from Brie, and offers him the other frag grenade with the same expression and questions that he plied Posey with.

Silver: "Good. I am trusting you with this. If Tenebrous wants it, make sure you ask him same thing before hoofing it off to him." Silver fully relinquishes control of the frag grenade to Posey.

Brie takes the frag grenade and looks at Silver like he's an idiot. He probably looks like he doesn't understand what Silver is saying, but he's actually wondering how to convey to Silver that what he is saying is the most idiotically basic shit, that for him to think Brie needs to hear this info,....

Silver: "I have seen that look many times training ponies in Basic. Yes, it is basic information, but it needs to be asked and answered. No one wants to end up with face full of fragmentation, much less when it is coming from grenade thrown by one of your own allies."

>>179250
Almost forgot about the first part of this one. Kira looks on in awe at how fast Posey is sewing and the deftness with which she can manipulate the knitting needles with her magic. She tilts her head at it at first until it starts taking shape. Silver meanwhile would take the offered feather token, but as he's not very well experienced with magic or magic items he would need basic instructions for usage.

Silver: "...yes, we are resolved," he responds in scarily the most calm and collected voice Brie has ever heard, before,

yoink

Brie finds that the grenade in his possession is no longer in his grasp, but is instead now held in Silver's magic. He pockets the grenade, pin still attached, in his bags before Brie has a chance to take it back. With the grenade safely stowed, Silver's calm demeanor very quickly changes for the worse. Brie can swear Silver's normally blue eyes have turned a bright red not seen outside of lava fresh from a volcano, he looms over the comparatively smaller bat as if he were a giant, and he speaks in a low and dangerous voice.

Silver: "If you ever, ever, ever pull that kind of shit with me again, it will be your last. Are we resolved?"

There will be no grapple check, because Brie is not getting to have a grenade after that stunt. Instead of simply saying "yes" and taking the grenade without issue, Brie decided to risk the lives of everyone in the party and and whoever else is nearby. That is final.

I'm sure this scene is very neat in your mind imagined as animated in a Japanese anime, but I really have to ask:

How did you think Silver was going to react? How did you think Garv, Posey, Defiant, and whom ever else would react?

Did you think that after seeing this, Silver would be inspired to give Brie more grenades if more grenades are given or otherwise acquired? (There's still the two smoke grenades).

No, certainly not! I was content with the one. As for the smoke grenades, I assume they'll be negotiable as things play out ^_^

But I DID think with the one player blood-vomiting and getting a pass, that I might avoid getting patronized about how "erhmagherd grenades explmode and hurted pplz!"

Do we really have to explain the difference between the two scenes? Like, the blood vomiting was kinda stupid and she basically had to be given a pass in order to keep the party together and the mission intact. But Brie pulling the pin on the grenade before putting it back is both exceptionally stupid and exceedingly dangerous to everyone in the party. You have three options as to proceed:

1.) Retcon it where Brie never pulled the pin on the grenade in the first place

2.) Concede the grenade to Silver and leave the issue be, knowing that Silver now no longer trusts Brie

3.) Push the issue and force the 600 lb. lamia right next to him to engage in a grapple to take the grenade away from him
