Sorry for the silence guys, I've been here, just didn't have much to add and was waiting for the kobold to respond to the question. I'll get a post in tomorrow morning.
Very sorry about not saying anything till now. Next week is going to be holidays and I'm in a place without internet. I'm by no means gone, and I will try to post ASAP.
Sorry I've been so quiet lately guys, been a busy couple of weeks. I have been checking in here and there, but haven't had a chance to post, especially sinec Jonath was lucky enough to take the "easy way" across, so he's just been waiting patiently on the far bank.
Good memory with the dog by the way Marvel, I'd forgotten all about him! This actually works though, he was meant more as a "plot device," and part of the story there (and I think I was roleplaying it this way early on) was that the dog had just sort of adopted Jonath and continued to follow him even though Jonath didn't really want him to, so him almost getting left behind then showing up at the last second works out. (As an aside, we may need to figure out what to do with him as we level. Like I said, he was never actually meant to be involved in combats/adventuring, etc., so he's going to have a rough time surviving as we gain levels unless he continues to just be a fuzzy, wet-nosed plot device that somehow miraculously avoids all combat and other hazards).
