I.C. hates everyone equally. It will just sometimes give you good rolls to lull you into a false sense of security and then when you need a good roll most slam you with a natural 1.
I am playing a paladin in another game and I did not get one successful skill check through the entire last skill challenge.
No problem, figured you were busy and don't want to lose any pacing so I sometimes post for players during a partial abscence. Heck I am limping through on this game right now with two players that haven;t logged in for a while. Once we get to the end of this adventure we may have to get some replacements again. The second adventure is my favorite of the first three in this adventure path, so I cannot wait to run it.
