[Master] Hello there

Mike has received the map Catacombs secret section.

[JohnA] hello Mike

[JohnA] hey Bob

[Master] Mike, Lisa asked me if you would be in tonight

[Master] Is worried about the potential traps, etc. plus all the searching all the coffins for potential Undead etc.

[Master] and John and TMO were just talking on Discord about new characters too

[Mike] I'm not sure how long I'll be able to play tonight. Bit of a mentally tough day at work so I'll probably go to bed earlier than usual.

[Master] No worries

[Master] we will do what we can

[Master] and then the rest will be up in the air

[JohnA] no one died last week

[Mike] that's good

[Master] Overall it was a good even battle I think

[JohnA] Hello, Hello , Hello Lara, TMO

[TMO] Hiya

[Master] one or two rolls could have gone differently

[JohnA] And #3 hello

[TMO] Hah! I beat Lisa here tonight! :)

[Lisa] lol

[Lara] hi BOB!!

[Lara] hi Mike!!

[Lisa] Hello!! :)

[Lara] hi John!!

[Mike] hey

[Lara] hi TMO!!

[Master] So we are picking up directly the next round after last week

[Master] out of combat

[Mike] so bob basically convinced me to come in tonight. after this I’m either disappearing again or changing characters. being a thief sucks.

[Master] chuckles with Mike, totally depends on what the story is

[Master] but you should play what you want

[Lara] brb

[Lara] I am away from the keyboard.

[JohnA] so I can play a bugbear

[Master] there will be lots of story arcs around the Craniate Wastes

[Master] You can always create one John, and if it shows up and Indigo cuts off its head in the first 5 minutes ...... no one will blame him

[TMO] I played Ilero for 7 years Mike. There are plusses and minuses to every class.

[Lisa] Hi Ryan! :)

[Ryan] Hello

[JohnA] hey Ryan

[Lara] I am back at the keyboard.

[Lara] hi Lisa!!

[Lara] hi Ryan!!

[Lisa] Hi! :D

[Ryan] Hi, everyone!

[Lara] I will volunteer do the Summary this week

[TMO] thank you!

[Master] Thank you Lara

Lara smile

[Master] to make it easier and uniform those that are paralyzed by the ghouls are paralyzed for (2+1d6) [1d6=1] 3 more rounds

[Lara] I didn't really hop on Discord much or contribute to OOC

[Mike] the way I see it, any character can roleplay, but during combat if you aren't a combat class it's a very tedious process. I could have skipped three weeks and missed nothing.

[Lisa] I think if we were in open spaces you would have found something to do - just so hard being in single file line

[Lara] @BOB I can't tell who is paralyzed

[Lisa] blue and yellow peoples

[TMO] Skarp, Brer, Sundown

[TMO] (on the screen I'm looking at)

[Lara] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzLRhK5isTE

[Lara] OH! the previous room, not the secret section

[Lara] I see Sundown is grey...

[Lisa] So who wants to write the summary this week?

[Lara] on my Campaign panel

Michael-14198 has joined the game on Fri Jul 17 19:08:09 EDT 2020

[Lara] @Lisa, I will

Michael-14198 has received the map Catacombs secret section.

[Lisa] Oh goodie! Thanks!!

[Lisa] Hi Michael!

Lara smiles

[JohnA] Hello Michael

[Lara] hi Michael!!

[Lisa] The icon on the map is yellow and blue

[Michael-14198] Hello everyone!

[Michael-14198] Good to see you

[Ryan] Hello!

[Lisa] Sundown is gray on the left because no one can control him but BOB

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Hell, I don't even think bob can control that idiot

[Lisa] LOL

[Master] HAH

Carissa has received the map Catacombs secret section.

[Lisa] Hi Carissa!

[Lara] okay. thanks TMO, I see the yellow and blue stuff but I wouldn't have known that meant they were paralyzed

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Hello Carissa!

[Ryan] Hi Carissa!

[Lara] hi Carissa!!

[JohnA] welcome Carissa

[Carissa] Hello!

[Lara] thanks, @Lisa. now I see it but I didn't wouldn't have known

[Lisa] Yes takes a bit to figure out what all this stuff means

[JohnA] I am away from the keyboard.

[Lisa] And Mike we can soon do what you suggested in the beginning - start looking at each coffin

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Don't feel bad Lara. I've been doing this for a few years and learning stuff

[Lara] question: when can a character retrieve a weapon? does the entity have to be Dying or Dead?

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] By the way bob, Mike brought up the other week, did Fantasy Ground officially die? I saw an amazing demonstration of a full implementation of dungeons and dragons on Tabletop Simulator, but I don't know if it allows the full customization of the 2.0 system and all the intricacies.

[Lisa] it makes it easier that way @Lara :)

[Master] Yes to Lara you can always try to recover a thrown weapon

[JohnA] I am back at the keyboard.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (unless that wasn't you Mike. Sorry)

[Lisa] Excuse me moderately wounded ghoul, I want my dagger back!

[Lisa] Yank!

[Lara] @BOB - haha. of course I can always TRY to recover a thrown weapon but I could die in the process...

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] LOL

[Master] I have not looked at Tabletop Simulator but I will

[Lara] @Lisa isn't that how they do it in the movies?

Hoffman (JohnA)] Hey Thistle, can you check this body for traps, and spell components, I gotta rest for a sec

[Lisa] Of course! :)

[Master] and so we will go to the corridor people

[Master] then back to the main room

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) sits against wall opposite coffin

JohnA has received the map Catacombs section 4.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OK> Deep breaths. Serious face. Game time. Hut Hut. )

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] moved 6'03".

[Master] you have that 3 round wait for anyone to wake but you do not know exactly when

[Carissa] (if only someone with anti-venom was here...)

[Lisa] they probably need the rest anyway

[Lara] I figured if the entity was at least Dead then I could recover it...

[Thistle (Carissa)] lol

Hoffman (JohnA)] (some things come back from being dead)

Hoffman (JohnA)] (so you might have a short window)

[Thistle (Carissa)] So he's like, dead dead, right? Not gonna come back?

Lord Tiberius (Master) breathing heavy

[Lara] SERIOUSLY! that's ridiculous

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] You keep using that word. (Dead) Id ont' think it means what you think it means...

Thistle (Carissa) gestures to guy in black cloak

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] I am worried about that one, points at the wight

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) groans

Lara huffs

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) I certainly hope so

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] How are you feeling Hoffman?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah but you guys showed it!

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Well, unless you got some Valarian steel on you, id' suggest you burn it

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OOC)

Carissa is receiving the map Catacombs section 4...

Carissa has received the map Catacombs section 4.

Hoffman (JohnA)] Tired, in a way I have never felt before

[Emerald (Lara) (to Michael-14198 only)] (not sure if you're talking to me...burn the entity or the dagger?)

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] You will get over it, it takes a long time but you get your old feelings back

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! I need to grab my dagger before I forget!

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) looks up

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 6'03".

Hoffman (JohnA)] whay if the feeling neve come back?

Lord Tiberius (Master) gives Hoffman a hand up

Thistle (Carissa) runs off

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Nah

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 4'08".

Lord Tiberius (Master) looking back

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] BE Careful!

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) you watch her, I watch the thing not moving so much

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol she was going to let them have a moment, oops)

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) sighs

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) uses wall to get back up

[Emerald (Lara) (to TMO only)] (is there a there a way to see more than one map? I only see the one that Emerald is on...)

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 5'00".

[TMO (to Lara only)] not that I know of

Lord Tiberius (Master) looks into the open coffin

Hoffman (JohnA)] guess rest time is over, sure you don't want to check on your wife, or don't want to return empty handed?

[Emerald (Lara) (to TMO only)] (ok, just thought I’d check)

Hoffman (JohnA)] ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] (Lara you can click on a character that is on the other map to get that map or I can send it to people)

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] What? cannot let something just sit there waiting for us

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] HEY

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] HEY

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] You have a torch?

Hoffman (JohnA)] I'M ALMOST DEAD ARE YOUR LOOKING FOR SOMETHIN TO KILL

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] BRANWYN!!!!!

Skarphedin (Ryan) silently watches.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Uhh guys? Where'd the door go?

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Hoffman you have a torch?

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] One of those little puddings crawled in here

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] IT is just a little thing

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] but take care of them now before they grow up and think they can take over the place

[Thistle (Carissa)] Hellooooooooo!!

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) holds out a torch

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Push the lid on it?)

[Thistle (Carissa)] FINNY WHERE'D YOU GO??

Lord Tiberius (Master) takes the torch

Skarphedin (Ryan) silently watches. Continues watching quietly.

[Master] SIZZLE

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "I went nowhere. I've been standing here this whole time."

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] OK so one down

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Is he on the other side of the door?)

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] (Mike you are on the other side of a secret door no one except Hoffman knows how to open, they really missed the elf)

[Thistle (Carissa)] I DON'T SEE YOU!!

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) shrugs

Hoffman (JohnA)] OK, I got it

[Thistle (Carissa)] I found my dagger. Where'd you go? FINNNYYYY

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) picks up body with cloak

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "You literally held the door open, then ran out it. is your memory broken?"

[Lisa] (lol)

Hoffman (JohnA)] starts heading down hallway

[Thistle (Carissa)] I don't see the door??

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Guess it wasn't dead enough?)

[JohnA] Man in cloak follows [Hoffman]].

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 16'03".

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] and Man in cloak moved 47'11".

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] and Man in cloak moved 61'01".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 67'05".

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] and Man in cloak moved 68'02".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 18'11".

Hoffman (JohnA)] hey, the door closed?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Open the door, Finny! There's dead dead things out here!

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Thistle, did you find your dagger?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Like... redead undead dead things!

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] ::opens the door::

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! Yeah right here.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! There you are Finny!

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] and Man in cloak moved 23'06".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Look! We killed him!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 15'11".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 20'01".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm... hopefully he's a bad guy.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "The lever is in that coffin. I even said it was there before we found it."

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] and Man in cloak moved 15'02".

[Thistle (Carissa)] But I was told not to open coffins....

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 4'10".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 10'10".

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) set and sits

Lord Tiberius (Master) closes the door

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Where is that wedge

[Emerald (Lara) (to Master only)] (okay, did Hoffman move more than 120 ft?)

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] someone had one

Hoffman (JohnA)] Can someone please check this guy out,

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Hoffman really has been through the wringer hasn't he)

[Lord Tiberius (Master) (to Lara only)] yes out of combat, has been about 3 rounds so far

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) sits back down and closes his eyes

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Call for Talwin, he'll come help you if you need John)

Thistle (Carissa) looks at him, nods to self, "Yep. Definitely a guy in a cloak. Looks dead."

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) deep breaths

[Master] and the paralyzed wake up and can move

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (You know about them cloaked people. All shady and stuff...)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Want me to read his fortune? 'Cause his will be easy to read.

Hoffman (JohnA)] (looks at cloaked Hoffman?)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (The guards plant weed on them and everything!)

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] and Man in cloak moved 2'00".

Ryan is receiving the map Catacombs secret section...

Ryan has received the map Catacombs secret section.

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] and Man in cloak moved 1'06".

[Lisa] (does Foto have speak with dead?)

Skarphedin (Ryan) blinks, stretching stiff muscles.

Hoffman (JohnA)] (I can't get him to stop following)

Brer Necholas (TMO) looks around to make sure there are no incoming threat.

[Master] I can do that John

[Emerald (Lara) (to Lisa only)] (why is the Main in close still moving? I thought it was dead? undead?)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (oh yeah. that's a thing. This game is so large I keep forgetting basic concepts)

Hoffman (JohnA)] [Hoffman]] moved 5'09".

[Lisa (to Lara only)] main?

Hoffman (JohnA)] someone go check on everybody else, they could be dying in there

Thistle (Carissa) yells out, "ARE YOU GUYS ALIVE OUT THERE? OR DEAD LIKE THE GUY IN HERE?"

[Master] You are in this small room here, Phyn etc. the door Hoffman's group just came in

[Master] there is no other visible door

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (So no noise transference I'm guessing)

[Master] Phyn could look for the secret door, Hoffman can point out where it should be

[Indigo (Lisa)] (we need a second wedge)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I’ve seen it gone through. I should know it's there

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (wedge it with a body)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (of a giant flea?)

[Master] there is about 40 to 50 feet of stone between the two groups

[Indigo (Lisa)] (we do have an extra wight)

Hoffman (JohnA)] (HA!)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (That...is a lot of stone bob.)

Hoffman (JohnA)] (just dead wight, I hope)

[Indigo (Lisa)] :)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Where is it? Because they can't hear me OR they're ignoring me so I need to yell at them for that.

[Master] so Phyn can make that roll a d12

[Master] you will get the bonus

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] (d12) [1d12=9] 9

[Master] Phyn Thesis moved 8'10".

[Master] Griff (dog) moved 4'02".

[Master] Phyn Thesis moved 10'04".

[Master] right there

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Well I apparently didn’t' see it when everyone else walked through it, but I guess it's here."

Griff (dog) (TMO) shakes giant flea body between his jaws.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Good boy, Griff! Get those nasty fleas!

[Master] Thistle moved 2'06".

Thistle (Carissa) clears throat to yell again, "YOU GUYS ALIVE?"

[Indigo (Lisa)] (and everyone's unparalyzed!)

[Master] about 5 to 10 minutes have gone by after the battle ended

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Everyone alright?

[Emerald (Lara) (to Carissa only)] (I would say hi but I think you're too far away to hear me)

[Thistle (Carissa) (to Lara only)] Same map so think you can hear her now :)

[Master] Thistle'

[Indigo (Lisa)] You're back!

[Emerald (Lara)] hi Thistle!

[Thistle (Carissa)] (is her nameo)

[Master] Thistle's voice does echo down

[Thistle (Carissa)] Hellooo! Echo! (echo echo!)

[Master] Griff (dog) moved 7'11".

[Master] Thistle moved 7'08".

[Emerald (Lara)] Is everyone okay?

[Master] Man in cloak moved 7'04".

[Master] Phyn Thesis moved 10'10".

[Master] [Hoffman]] moved 6'10".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 6'10".

[Indigo (Lisa)] (brb)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Bob, is everything quiet right now. Enough that Talwin can cautiously approach the bottom areas and look for remnants of anything that survived the fire tornado?

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] )

Brer Necholas (TMO) prays silently.

Thistle (Carissa) to the others, "They're not responding. Do you think they died?"

[Master] Talwin is still staring at that arm sticking out of the sarcophagus

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Hint Hint)

Talwin (Michael-14198) Turns to Branwyn

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Skarphedin moved 18'10".

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Skarphedin moved 7'08".

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] I know may not be the most ideal time. However, we still have one potential bad guy remaining.

Talwin (Michael-14198) Gestures at the arm

[Master] Branwyn is nowhere near there

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "So you guys done?"

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Goddamit

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] sorry bob

[Master] She is up on the first landing

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Uh bob. It shows her right next to me?

[Emerald (Lara) (to Master only)] (isn't Talwin on the first landing too?)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ughh I'm gonna have to hunt them down, aren't I?

[Emerald (Lara) (to Michael-14198 only)] (how is it that you can see the sarcophagus?)

[Master] then Talwin is on the first landing too and is not looking at the sarcophagus

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 7'03".

[Master] So to be clear everyone except Howard ignored the arm sticking out and left

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (He did see it earlier though, before running back up the stairs)

[Emerald (Lara)] Howard, what do you see?

Hoffman (JohnA)] be better if you had some clue on the body, but sure, don't listen to me

[Master] Lisa is AFK

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (No bob. He mentioned it in a shout)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Talwin did.)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Howard relayed)

[Master] yes Michael, Talwin mentioned it and then left

[Thistle (Carissa)] Well.. want me to rummage through his pockets? He might have something.

[Thistle (Carissa) (to GM only)] Thistle: Pick Pockets check:(d100) [1d100=48] 48 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 75!!

[Emerald (Lara) (to Master only)] (wouldn't Emerald be able to see it? )

[Master] everyone is on the map where they should be

Hoffman (JohnA)] he better have something

[Emerald (Lara) (to Master only)] (too many pillars?)

[Master] Lara you can ask all those questions without whispering so everyone knows

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OK). So, if possible, I’d like to repeat the last words, but leave off the gesture to the arm. Are you okay with that?

[Emerald (Lara)] wouldn't Emerald be able to see?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Let me just look....

[Master] What last words Michael? again Lisa is AFK

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Emerald yes. But unless she relays...)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Sigh. Never mind. Sorry

[Master] so if you are talking to one of her characters will not do any good

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Right

[Master] but the arm is still there right now

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (TMO are you here?)

[Master] and no one has told the priests or Paladins

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Working on it)

[Master] just pointing it out

Emerald (Lara) looks over at the sarcophagus

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (yes - Brer is praying quietly at the moment, but he's right there)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OK_

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] dude, if you want your character to say something, just say it. if you think we should check something shout it out.

[Master] and yes Emerald can see the sarcophagus from there and yes can see the arm sticking out

Talwin (Michael-14198) Approaches Brer softly

Talwin (Michael-14198) Taps on shoulder

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Hey, I know you've been through the wringer. But I think I saw another corpse in a significant coffin in the lower room. Would you mind accompanying me to check it out?

Brer Necholas (TMO) lowers his sword. "Yes?"

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis moved 19'10".

[Emerald (Lara)] Lanek, can you tell Talwin and the others there is an arm sticking out

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Just did. :) )

[Emerald (Lara)] of the sarcophagus (OOC---I hate typing that word)

Hoffman (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos moved 30'03".

[Master] Snee and Lanek are not here

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] so what's in here, bob?

[Thistle (Carissa)] ( :( )

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Show me.

[Emerald (Lara)] (Lanek was on the stairs!)

[Master] from where Phyn is you can see stone pillars holding up a much taller higher room

[Thistle (Carissa)] (but Spring is sadly not here)

Talwin (Michael-14198) Nods. Stay behind me if possible? I'd rather take the hit then you right now

[Master] Spring is not here tonight

Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA) shows great concern as he examines Hoffman

[Emerald (Lara)] (oh. whoops. lol.)

Talwin (Michael-14198) Starts cautiously down the stairs with whomever is actually here right now :)

[Master] there is a pool near the bottom of the stairs, that is full of grey ooze moving slowly around

Brer Necholas (TMO) follows carefully.

[Emerald (Lara)] Talwin

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Talwin moved 24'11".

Talwin (Michael-14198) Points at the corpse.

[Master] on the raised dais there are two tall statues of warriors, holding swords and shields

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "What do you think Brer?"

[Master] there is a large ornate sarcophagus with an arm sticking out

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "I'm not good with religious stuff"

[Master] most of this room has been ravaged by fire except the one work table on the far side of the room

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods under his hood. "Let me Look"

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Incinerate it? Also be careful. A fire elemental was here earlier and parts of the room may still be hot or unstable"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas: Detect Evil Intent: By focusing for an entire round, I can detect evil intent or actions in a location or group up to 60' away and 10' wide.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Angry boy, go hit that arm to make sure it's dead."

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "It didn't touch the corpse"

[Master (to TMO only)] nothing evil on the dais

Talwin (Michael-14198) Whispers

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Anything?

[Master] Brer Necholas moved 17'10".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] The sarcophagus seems safe. Let me go check it. Cover me.

Talwin (Michael-14198) Nods. Right. Call if you need help

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Talwin moved 32'06".

[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.

Talwin (Michael-14198) Nods at silent Howard

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 21'05".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 35'07".

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Oh good. Loot at my tools go check for traps for me."

Brer Necholas (TMO) studies the dais and sarcophagus before climbing the stairs

[Master] does Brer have religion?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] ....

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] ...

[Emerald (Lara)] "What was that!?"

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] is...is that a question?

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (All he needs is Faith)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (he has the religion. Just none of the studying)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (TY.)

[Master] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Cs3Pvmmv0E

[Indigo (Lisa)] (Howard)

Howard Plum (Lisa) looks at sarcophagus tentatively

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (If Howard has either, can he tell us?)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Religion check: (d20) [1d20=17] 17 - ROLL FAILED against 8!!

[Master] Brer can see this is a holy Suomi relic

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Nevermindd. Sorry)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas: Reading/writing check: (d20) [1d20=5] 5 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 11!!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] It looks religious

[Master] the side says Tiera

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Talwin: Reading/writing check: (d20) [1d20=11] 11 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Talwin: Engineering check: (d20) [1d20=20] 20 - ROLL FAILED against 12!!

[Master] Brer would know who that is

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Engineering was an attempt to see what the material was made out of. How special it was)

[Master] Talwin can read the name also but does not know who

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Can I get that name?)

[Master] Tiera

Talwin (Michael-14198) murmurs

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Tiera...Any idea who that is Howard?"

[JohnA] (just one name, like Cher)

[Howard Plum (Lisa) (to TMO only)] Tiera guard for the Suomi hero Lemminkainen - if you hadn't looked it up yet

[Thistle (Carissa)] (anyone who's listened to Ilero should know, yes?)

[JohnA] (or Hoffman!)

[Master] Last Friday I said I would look for the chat log where that Suomi sarcophagus was opened. Here is the link to the chat log: http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Jul1114

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Talwin probably wouldn't know. Sorry if someone already told him)

[Master] 4/3 TMO No wonder that Tiera thing was hazy for me - I wasn't on that night. I've only read about it secondhand. Mind you, I doubt I would have known enough off the cuff to have Ilero react appropriately to the revelation. But yes, Ilero will strongly advise against opening that sarcophagus again. :)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Yes, this is your friend Ilero's patron.

[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.TTT-OOC

Talwin (Michael-14198) Raises eyebrows

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Really?!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (sorry, had to go share out even portions of hot pizza rolls)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] That's great! He'll be so excited

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Any reason I shouldn’t get him?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Ilero? Do you think he followed us?

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Ilero? No. But this is pretty serious right?

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Like, a once in a lifetime opportunity

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (everyone knows this is a mummy?)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] I never would want to stop a friend from something so important

[JohnA] but is it animated?

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods. "But, the sarcophagus has been tampered with.

Talwin (Michael-14198) Frowns

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Desecrated?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] We'll need proper ceremony to close it again.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (it was the last time we were here)

Talwin (Michael-14198) Studies the Burial area

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Talwin: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=1] 1 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 11!!

[JohnA] nice

[Master] Upon close examination you can see that there are four small blocks that are holding the lid up that allows the arm to stick out

Talwin (Michael-14198) Points at the small blocks.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Those don't seem original to the primary structure."

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] You heard the lid grinding, Talwin? Like it was trying to escape!

[Master] and Talwin also points out the remains of candles on the floor that have burned out

JohnA cough cough secret door

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Out of respect for the dead, I'm sure we could put Tiera back to the earth in peace..."

Talwin (Michael-14198) Notices the candles

Talwin (Michael-14198) The candles have gone out.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] That's odd

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Maybe they started the fire!

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Should we relight them?

Brer Necholas (TMO) looks closely at them. "Don't touch anything yet. If the necromancer has upset anything in here, we'll need to put it back carefully.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Would an ancient guardian such as Tiera be subject to even his power?

Brer Necholas (TMO) shrugs. "Honestly, this is out of my comfort zone. I don't usually deal with ceremony and saints."

Talwin (Michael-14198) Nods

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Understood. Better safe than sorry. Do you think you can perform the Ceremony in a basic sense?

Talwin (Michael-14198) Looks at Howard

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Do you think you could?"

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Me? Oh my no!

Talwin (Michael-14198) Hm

Talwin (Michael-14198) Contemplates

Talwin (Michael-14198) Turns to Phyn

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Maybe we could ... close it ... just to be safe

Brer Necholas (TMO) laughs wryly. "No lad. I'm not nearly that learned."

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "I...Uh. Don't suppose you know anything about this sort of thing?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Oh, you weren't talking to me, sorry.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] And then when the Kiputytto people return they can perform the ceremony

Talwin (Michael-14198) Back to Brer

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] No. No. I asked you first. Just checking out the room

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Sure. That's where you put a dead person. Probably buried with cool stuff. I'd rob it."

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (sorry - he was turning around so I just answered :) )

Brer Necholas (TMO) looks around the room. "Let me pray. Perhaps someone will hear."

Talwin (Michael-14198) I'm not sure it would be wise to touch anything like Brer said. It might have some cool stuff Phyn, but even I'm hesitant to deal with someone who was a patron of Ilero

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 4'03".

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] It's not worth it. Promise

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (And you were good Lisa. I didn't even think of the Kiputytto people. They totally slipped me mind. That might be a viable option)

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) lightly Thistle, get Branwyn, she will want to see this body

Brer Necholas (TMO) kneels at the base of the stairs and plants his sword point into the ground in front of him. He lifts his head and stares at the sarcophagus. His lips move as he silently prays to Ukko for any guidance.

Talwin (Michael-14198) Backs a few respectful feet away.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] ::in a ghostly voice:: "Oooooooopen the cooooooooffin"

[Master] laughs

Thistle (Carissa) still rummaging

[Thistle (Carissa)] But he's got to have SOMETHING on him.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Your goood demaaaaaands it"

Talwin (Michael-14198) Sighs

[Master] Black Cloak has a ring on and some misc. things in his pockets, and a wand

[Emerald (Lara) (to Master only)] (can I move closer?)

Brer Necholas (TMO) is completely inwardly focused.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh look! He's got a ring! And a wand?? Can I cast things if I used it?? Wait, can I use it?

[Thistle (Carissa)] And... things. Eww is that a gum wrapper?

Hoffman (JohnA)] Ask Branwyn, please

[Thistle (Carissa)] BRANWYN WHERE ARE YOU????

[Master] Yes to Lara

Hoffman (JohnA)] my head hurts, but good to know he has something

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh sorry.

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 30'04".

Thistle (Carissa) steps two feet away from Hoffman, "ARE YOU ALIVE?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 1'11".

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Seriously, there's nothing here except the ooze and the coffin. Either open it or don't and we go."

Emerald (Lara) looks at the small blocks holding up the lid

Brer Necholas (TMO) continues to pray.

[Master] It will be a turn or more for Brer to pray

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "We are making sure that we haven't pissed off a minor deity in my opinion. You are welcome to stay and observe, or loot any number of other things."

[Emerald (Lara)] "Talwin, are the blocks in each of the corners?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (perfect - I won't keep spamming then)

Thistle (Carissa) throws up hands, "Maybe they all went deaf! She's gotta be here somewhere...."

Talwin (Michael-14198) Looks.

Thistle (Carissa) cautiously walks down looking for people

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Bob was that established? )

Thistle (Carissa) kicks ghoul, mutters, "Yep. Dead."

[Master] Piles of dead ghouls in front of Thistle

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I thought they were just propping it up on one place for the arm, not sure if it was in each corner)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (and then Thistle accidentally paralyzes herself on a ghoul body)

Thistle (Carissa) walks through making sure they're all ghouls not people she knows

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 8'07".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 11'00".

[Master] there are four blocks holding up the front side of the lid, made of white marble

[Thistle (Carissa)] Anyone?

Talwin (Michael-14198) Relays that to Emerald

Branwyn (Lisa) sees Thistle and smiles

[Emerald (Lara)] "Hi Thistle!"

Hoffman (JohnA)] Man in cloak moved 9'11".

Hoffman (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos moved 15'08".

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "There are four blocks propping up the front."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thistle! I'm so glad you stayed safe in the corridor rooms and did not come down here

[Master] Thistle is back up on the stars Emerald is down by the Dias

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "We are trying to make sure that this Tiera, is respectfully entombed once again."

[Emerald (Lara)] "Is it a human hand sticking out?"

Talwin (Michael-14198) Winks at Emerald

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "You know, to prevent a god from smiting us"

Talwin (Michael-14198) Shakes head. No

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] This is Ilero’s Patron

Branwyn (Lisa) climbs back up the stairs a bit

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "We don’t' want to take any chances."

[Emerald (Lara)] "Was/Is Tiera human?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! You're alive!! You'll NEVER guess what happened!!

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "If you'd like to you can relay to Branwyn."

Talwin (Michael-14198) Shakes head

[Branwyn (Lisa)] As you can see it was quite a mess here and ...

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "I'm afraid I don’t' Know Emerald"

Branwyn (Lisa) smiles "What happened?"

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "I'm not of this faith"

[Emerald (Lara)] "Is there any other writing? Inscriptions?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] So I was holding the door, right? Then this guy shows up OUTTA NOWHERE! So I threw a dagger at him, but it didn't do anything so Hoffman tackled him THEN Tiberius SHOVED me out of the way to slice him up. SO he gets the picture, damns us, I damned him back, AND RUNS OFF! BUT Tiberius and Hoffman chased after him. THEN a wight appeared!! THEN Hoffman and Tiberius sliced that up and Tiberius got slice-happy and sliced up the guy, too!! Wanna see? Hoffman has him up there!

Thistle (Carissa) pauses to take a breath

[Thistle (Carissa)] And it was really cool! Buuuut we're not sure he's the bad guy, but he's gotta be because he's dead now. Right?

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis moved 13'06".

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I’m going to look in

Branwyn (Lisa) shakes her head

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Nothing that means anything to me. I'd ask Howard or Brer when you have a moment"

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH! And he's got a cool ring and a wand and stuff on him!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] He cast?

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Phyn. Is there any way you cannot?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] I didn't touch it though. I figured you'd yell at me for that.

Brer Necholas (TMO) continues to pray silently, focused blindly upon his prayers.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm... well he didn't get a chance. You said don't give them a chance!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That's right.

[Emerald (Lara)] "Phyn, let's wait till Brer is finished with his prayer"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can't believe it. We were all down here and all the time he was above

[Master] Phyn peers in and can see rich funeral clothes, armor, a shield, sword and spear

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (At least we cleared it out...)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (would Branwyn recognize the ring?)

[Master] it looks magical but other than that no

[Thistle (Carissa)] (sorry one secv)

Talwin (Michael-14198) Watches Phyn, but doesn't interfere

Talwin (Michael-14198) Nods in respect for the dead

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] can I make out any details of the person in the clothes? are the things looking old and decayed or shiny and new?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you for collecting this.

[Master] all clean shiny new

Branwyn (Lisa) looks around "I think Howard and Snee are the only ones that would recognize him. We shall get Howard soon.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] None of you were hurt?

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Looks like a standard dead person but probably magic gear. Still looks like new after however many years of not being maintained."

Branwyn (Lisa) looks carefully at Thistle

Emerald (Lara) waits as Brer continues to pray

Talwin (Michael-14198) waits as Brer continues to pray

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Nothing I use though, so you all can take it or leave it. I'm betting you all just leave it to sit useless. Why is it people burry treasure with the dead? The dead don't need it. And wouldn't the gods want it to be out there doing good in their name? So stupid."

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Skarp you look rough

Brer Necholas (TMO) waits as Brer continues to pray

Skarphedin (Ryan) shrugs, then winces. "I've had better, but I've also had worse."

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] lol TMO

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (couldn’t resist)

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] How bad was it in here?

Emerald (Lara) looks at Phyn

Branwyn (Lisa) turns back to Sundown "Maybe if you are strong enough, you should help Brer Necholas. There is a mummy in that sarcophagus"

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Did everyone make it through?

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] ::pokes the arm sticking out with his dagger::

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Oh god. Don't send him)

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Things were a bit rough, but we all made it out.

[Sundown (Master)] I am not of Brother Brer's faith

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] ::and jumps back::

Emerald (Lara) "Phyn!"

Talwin (Michael-14198) Murmurs. "Nothing good came from disrespecting the dead Phyn"

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis moved 5'05".

[Master] the arm twitches

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Oh go cry in your journal about it."

Emerald (Lara) eyes grow wide

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I thought you were companions who aided each other with undead. Clearly I was mistaken. My apologies

[Master] Sundown moved 3'02".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (who was Tiberius talking to?)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Oh look! It's alive! It's aliiiiive!"

Talwin (Michael-14198) Sighs

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis moved 24'05".

[Sundown (Master)] I am here to defend my Brother against threats

Brer Necholas (TMO) continues to pray.

[Sundown (Master)] I cannot help him in his praying to his own gods, when they are not my gods

Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA) says prayer over Hoffman

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Branwyn! You've got a not quite dead one here!"

[Emerald (Lara)] (to Sarcophagus Guy) "Dear sir, who would be your brother?"

[Master (to TMO only)] the arm moving does cause a wave of concern to flow over Brer, like a disturbance

[Emerald (Lara) (to Master only)] (how is that Bran can hear Phyn but Thistle can't hear me?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is one for the paladins to return to its place of rest. I have no desire to make it stir.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes yes Sundown

[Sundown (Master) (to Lara only)] you should be asking those to everyone so they know,

[Emerald (Lara)] "Who are your gods, dear sir?"

Brer Necholas (TMO) stands up and spreads his arms wide. "Don't rise, honorable one. Return to your rest, ignore the fleas at your feet."

Howard Plum (Lisa) looks down and around at himself nervously

Emerald (Lara) waits

Brer Necholas (TMO) continues to pray.

[Master] The arm is motionless

[Emerald (Lara)] (I’m confused...who said "I cannot help him in his praying to his own gods, when they are not my gods "?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Sundown)

[Master] That was Sundown

[Emerald (Lara)] (oh! I thought it was the guy with the arm sticking out)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (that would be Tiera, a saint in the Suomi religion. We *really* don't want him to start talking to us)

Michael-14198 has joined the game on Fri Jul 17 20:23:59 EDT 2020

Emerald (Lara) (lol)

Michael-14198 is receiving the map Catacombs secret section...

Michael-14198 has received the map Catacombs secret section.

Michael-14198 has left the game on Fri Jul 17 20:24:40 EDT 2020

[Emerald (Lara)] "Talwin, when Brer is done praying, perhaps the two of you can hold the lid while I remove the blocks?"

[Master (to GM only)] Lanek moved 6'09".

[Master (to GM only)] Snezana moved 4'00".

[Emerald (Lara)] (not sure if Michael is coming or going. lol.)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (both)

[Emerald (Lara)] (OOC does he keep getting kicked out?)

Emerald (Lara) waits to see if Talwin heard her

[Master] (Power went out where Michael is, and he has to go check and find out why etc. so he might not be back tonight)

[Emerald (Lara)] ('k, got it)

[Master] He will try

[Emerald (Lara)] "Howard, when Brer is done praying, perhaps the two of you can hold the lid while I remove the blocks?"

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (mike - have you checked to see if anything survived the fire?)

[Master] brb refilling and emptying

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Me? Is it safe?

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I looked in the coffin and found what's probably big treasure

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] that and the pool of ooze is all bob told me was in the room

[Emerald (Lara)] "Howard, if you cast an invisibility spell can you still pick things up?

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I even poked the body with a dagger and since nothing happened, I would assume there are no monsters or traps

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (the fire was burning across the map from right to left and got to the middle before going out - that brown box is another desk or work table)

Brer Necholas (TMO) continues to pray.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (the fire was burning desks and books and whatever else he has lying around)

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (must be a nice desk)

Emerald (Lara) continues to see Brer praying

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but as soon as I say that bob goes away so he can't respond to checks)

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (smiles)

Emerald (Lara) and praying

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thistle, let's go see this body of yours

Branwyn (Lisa) follows Thistle back up the stairs

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] well I’ll look at whatever you want me to. I’m looking over character option books right now

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (for a henchman?)

Emerald (Lara) thinks...'Brer must need to catch up on a lot of his prayer'

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 22'06".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 25'03".

[Emerald (Lara)] "Howard, I'm not sure if you heard me...if cast an invisibility spell can you still pick things up?"

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 31'00".

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Sssshhhhh, Hoffman needs rest

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) eyes closes, hand laying on dead body

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Yes I can do things while invisible but people can still hear and smell me even if they can't see

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Smell you?

Branwyn (Lisa) sees Hoffman and her jaw drops

Emerald (Lara) nods

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] no, the last three weeks have shown be that I need a combat oriented character.

[Emerald (Lara)] "What do you think we should do Howard? Should we leave the arm sticking out?"

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Well of course. Everyone smells like something

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I have done nothing at all for three weeks.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Especially to beasts!

[Emerald (Lara)] (Skarp, I'm surprised Phyn can hear you from way over there)

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) mumbles I got him, I hope

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (besides Shi who is away - Phyn is the only one who has a range weapon)

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (I may or may not have mixed up Howard's token with Hoffman's)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] well he's not good with it. if you want ranged I’ll make a real ranged character

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (But your point is well-taken.)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I have made a killer one in the past that is apparently stuck in limbo in bob's world.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (I can't find Skarp's icon on the map)

[Emerald (Lara)] "Howard, who are you talking to?"

Hoffman (JohnA)] (nw of Branwyn)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Whoever asked if I smelled!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Which I do not by the way

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I washed

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Skarphedin is next to Griff, Branwyn, and Tiberius)

[Emerald (Lara)] (@Lisa @Howard, you would not have heard Skarp ask that)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (before or after going through the sewage moat?)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (ok - hard not to respond to the do you smell comment! :D )

Hoffman (JohnA)] (Skarp was responding to something he probably did not hear)

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Again, sorry about the mix-up. My bad.)

Emerald (Lara) looks up, thinking Brer MIGHT be done praying

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (no worries!)

Emerald (Lara) sighs

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Bob will let Brer know when he's done - but it's a full turn, which is 10 minutes iirc)

[Emerald (Lara)] "So, what do you think we should do Howard? Should we leave the arm sticking out?"

[Emerald (Lara)] (WHOA! 10 mins? okay. I check back with you in three weeks)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (good things come to those that wait. and bad things. And ... neutral things)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] It is not up to me. We should see what Brer wants to do.

[Master (to TMO only)] Brer can tell that some sort of ceremony was being done here but without spell craft, etc. .....

[Emerald (Lara)] Can I cantrip a wooden wedge?

[Master] yes

Brer Necholas (TMO) drops his arms to his side and bows his head, tired.

[Master] So from where Phyn is he can see the burned out remains of the previous contents of the room

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Branwyn, may I ask the plans

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Then Brer begins to pray in earnest.)

Branwyn (Lisa) quietly "What happened?"

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald: Cantrip Proficiency check: (d20) [1d20=13] 13 - ROLL FAILED against 12!!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (lol)

[Master] Sundown is there cutting heads off of ghouls and stacking the bodies up

[Emerald (Lara)] So, no wedge? lol

[Master] sad but true for Emerald

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (you got a bll instead)

Brer Necholas (TMO) sheathes his sword.

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Branwyn, Hoffman needs a lot of healing, if there are others that might be in a fight, might be beter to help them

[Master] Ghoul #20 moved 7'08".

[Master] Ghoul #30 moved 8'05".

[Master] Ghoul #21 moved 8'09".

[Master] Ghoul #24 moved 10'09".

[Master] Ghoul #22 moved 10'04".

[Master] Ghoul #25 moved 14'04".

[Master] Sundown moved 1'05".

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Ruh roh)

Emerald (Lara) looks at Brer confused as he sheathes his sword

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Unless that mummy comes out of the coffin I think we have done enough fighting today

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis moved 4'06".

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I’ll look over the last remaining desk or whatever this is

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We need to identify that body and look around down here

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Lea..*cough* Ahem.. Leave the crypt alone for now.

[Master] Phyn can make his find traps

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (not sure if Foto knows about your dream healing)

[Emerald (Lara)] (OOOOOHHHH---that's the desk you've been talking about)

Brer Necholas (TMO) turns and walks down the stairs away from the crypt.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 11'05".

Branwyn (Lisa) looks around "I think I may put some of our people in a healing dream in the morning.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis: Find/remove traps check:(d100) [1d100=12] 12 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 95!!

[Emerald (Lara)] ""Brer, where are you headed good sir?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] They will sleep for a day and a half and be fully restored

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That should take enormous pressure off of you.

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] That ,,,, is amazing, thank you

[Emerald (Lara)] (lol. I guess no one wants to put the jack back in the box)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Brer Necholas was also very badly injured and I do not think we can risk him sleeping

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] I will make sure he makes it cak up to the bedroom

[Master] Phyn can see there is a set of three bottles of ink on the table along with some writing quills, one of the bottles is set to explode if touched

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods in her direction. "That's harder work than it looks. Just gotta take a moment to rest."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can cast it 4 times in the morning for those that wish it

[Emerald (Lara)] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L39XBKcttx4&list=PLtgcbdjr_IAtCvZ8BEmPu2dxdYaBs4tDf

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos casts a spell against [Hoffman]]: Cure Moderate Wounds: You're healed (-1d10-1) [1d10=9] -10 points.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (nice)

[Master] [Hoffman]]'s Current Hit Points: adjusted to 13 (10) - Heavily Wounded

Emerald (Lara) nods in agreement

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "There's ink, paper, and exploding ink here. nothing useful."

[Emerald (Lara)] "Yes, Breb, connecting with our higher power can be draining"

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (one of these things is not like the others)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Elf, can I have a word with you for a moment?

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis moved 23'08".

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] And nothing in the rubble?

Howard Plum (Lisa) shakes his head sadly

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (one of these thing just don't belong)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Not with that tone of voice, human."

[Emerald (Lara)] (uh oh...finny gonna get a spankin?)

[Emerald (Lara) (to Carissa only)] (you may want to get down here and see this. lol)

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) stirs

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods and hooks his thumbs through his belt. "What were you thinking back there?"

Hoffman (JohnA)] My body, my kill, I’m fine

Emerald (Lara) sees Brer approach Phyn

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) uses wall to stand up again

Brer Necholas (TMO) breathing calmly.

[Thistle (Carissa) (to Lara only)] Tempting, but more curious about the guy once we get back to him

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Gonna need to be more specific than that."

Hoffman (JohnA)] greetings Branwyn, I hope this is the right body

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You don't look fine, Hoffman. Please rest.

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Hoffman will be ok in a few months or maybe a bit more

[Thistle (Carissa)] That wight almost did him in, but he took it down 'cause he's really strong.

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 1'03".

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Just had a lot taken out of him, he will recover

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you for doing that. We will get Howard to look

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Oh, look, that may be a mighty undead, and one of my group is trying to see what, if anything, can be done with it safely. I think I'll stick it with my dagger!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Like you dear.

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Do we want to be up there?

Emerald (Lara) waits

[Thistle (Carissa)] So... can I have the shiny ring? Or...?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Don't put it on please!

Emerald (Lara) watches Brer and Phyn

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is either a family ring or likely an evil ring

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We'll have to make sure it is safe and then we can talk about it

[Thistle (Carissa)] Fineeeee

Hoffman (JohnA)] She was quite brave, or foolish

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "You should thank me. I found out there's no danger. If it was as powerful as you say anything anyone did by the coffin would be trouble. The lid was propped up, so it's obviously been tampered with already and could hear the fighting. It was a pretty safe bet."

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 16'03".

Hoffman (JohnA)] hard to tell next to Tiberius

Lord Tiberius (Master) grins

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] The only danger was you, child. There was no reaction to anything in this room *Except* you.

Emerald (Lara) moves closer...

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] It seems like you did a lot down here too, nods at Skarp

Hoffman (JohnA)] yea, sorry I missed all the fun

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Child? Heh. I'm older than you are, kid. And been around the block a few times to boot."

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) deep breath

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Then maybe you should act like it.

Michael-14198 has joined the game on Fri Jul 17 20:51:51 EDT 2020

Michael-14198 is receiving the map Catacombs secret section...

Michael-14198 has received the map Catacombs secret section.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "But keep telling me how to do my job. I'll listen."

Skarphedin (Ryan) gives a barking laugh. "Hardly. I tried, but..." he shrugs again.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "In fact, why don't you go write me a list? There's some paper and ink over there."

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] I was paralyzed early; needed Branwyn here to save me.... again...

[Emerald (Lara)] "Pardon me dear sirs..."

[Emerald (Lara)] "Brer, I was thinking if you can hold up the lid, I will remove the blocks"

[Michael-14198] (Sorry guys. I'm back. May have to answer phone)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Skarp, it wasn't like that! he had fought the ghouls at the top of the stairs and then was surrounded when he turned the corner

[Thistle (Carissa)] Wait wait who was brave or foolish, Hoffman??

Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes his head. "No. I don't think we can do that safely."

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Oh, we can't do that. It would be either reckless and dangerous or a crime to his delicate religion."

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (welcome back Michael)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] ::smirks:: "See?"

[Emerald (Lara)] "Okay. I just want the body to rest in peace."

Skarphedin (Ryan) gives a wry smile. "You are kinder than I deserve to say such."

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) looks around slowly, then down at body

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (brb)

[Ryan] I am away from the keyboard.

Hoffman (JohnA)] I did what I had to do

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh Branwyn? 'Cause she helped Skarp? Yeah, that was!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] And here I thought elves were supposed to be wise and smart. Good to know there're exceptions to everyone.

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 24'03".

Emerald (Lara) (walks away to let the pissing contest ensue)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Oh my. Such rapier wit. How will I ever survive? Look, you all obviously got everything covered. I think I'll just be on my way. I hoped to find a mentor and just found you lot."

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (lol)

[Emerald (Lara)] is the paper from the desk blank?

[Master] yes

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Emerald, don't touch the ink."

[Emerald (Lara)] "Oh! Thank you for telling me Phyn. What is it?"

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "It's quite explosive. Only priests should handle it."

Brer Necholas (TMO) snorts with suppressed laughter.

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] "Bye all. Good luck not dying."

[Emerald (Lara)] "Oh my! I will not touch it."

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] Phyn Thesis moved 33'06".

Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes his head.

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 20'02".

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] night all.

Hoffman (JohnA)] (take care)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (night)

[Emerald (Lara)] "I'm sorry Phyn does not understand"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (cya later)

[Phyn Thesis (Mike)] I may be back. not sure I’m a good fit for the serious group you all play

Emerald (Lara) shakes her head slowly

Mike has left the game on Fri Jul 17 20:58:29 EDT 2020

[Emerald (Lara)] (nite Mike!!)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (huh didn't know Thistle was...)

Hoffman (JohnA)] (the one guy who is serious)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Ink! *laughs quietly* INK should be handled by priests! But dead saints are fair game!

[Emerald (Lara)] (RIGHT? frustration can make elves do and say dumb things)

Brer Necholas (TMO) is clearly suppressing a fit of giggles.

Hoffman (JohnA)] Are we done here, I can carry the body upstairs, when your ready Branwyn

[Michael-14198] (OK. I just caught up.)

[Michael-14198] One second. Getting back into Character

[Emerald (Lara)] "Brer, what should we do about the disturbed body?"

[Emerald (Lara)] "I feel terrible leaving it that way..."

Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes his head. "Nothing for now. I can't guide us to fixing it. For all I know, it's supposed to be that way."

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Don't be. We can all make choices. It never means they are free from Consequences. We are lucky it didn’t try and kill us."

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] The only time I felt any disturbance was when the elf touched it.

Emerald (Lara) nods "Very well then."

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "I'd hate to die because we woke a vengeful saint"

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "I wouldn’t have stopped him. But I wouldn't have stuck around here wiaint to be smittern either"

Talwin (Michael-14198) Winks

[Emerald (Lara)] "I defer to your judgment, Brer."

Talwin (Michael-14198) Sigh. "I'm sure he was right about one thing. That armor and sword probably is something to behold. Alas. Nothing truly ever did come from prolonged contact with the dead as far as I’m aware.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hoffman? He cannot walk?

Brer Necholas (TMO) takes a deep breath to calm himself. "Eh, who knows? This is way above me. I'm just doing the best I can."

Hoffman (JohnA)] The dead body?

Talwin (Michael-14198) You did fine. Why don't you take a rest. I can keep an eye on our Saint

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 20'01".

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] I can even light the candles back up if you think it will be a good omen

Hoffman (JohnA)] I can walk, sure

[Emerald (Lara)] "What did Phyn say was in the desk?"

Brer Necholas (TMO) puffs his cheeks out. "I ... don't know."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would like Howard to look at it to see if he recognizes it. If we can pry him away from the sarcophagus

[Thistle (Carissa)] Want me to grab him??

Talwin (Michael-14198) Smiles warmly

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I think it's best to just disturb nothing for now.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] No worries. I’ll just light one. Surely one candle won’t cause a trap to trip

Talwin (Michael-14198) Hesitates

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] OK

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Branwyn lit a candle upstairs. It blew up in her face.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (LOL)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Me looks around)

[Emerald (Lara)] "I just thought that the paper might have something written on it, even if we can't see it"

Talwin (Michael-14198) Finds some rubble from the fire disaster and piles a small cairn in front of the candles in respect. Murmurs a few words, bows to the coffin and leaves it be

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You can Thistle, just be careful of the pool. It is full of grey ooze

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods his thanks to Talwin.

Talwin (Michael-14198) Well. Why don't we check on everyone Brer?

[Master] Ghoul #26 moved 20'10".

[Ryan] I am back at the keyboard.

[Master] Ghoul #29 moved 27'01".

[Master] Ghoul #27 moved 23'07".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ok!

[Master] Ghoul #28 moved 26'03".

[Master] Ghoul #23 moved 27'06".

Thistle (Carissa) runs to the top of the stairs

[Master] Ghoul #31 moved 27'09".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 4'09".

[Thistle (Carissa)] HOWARD!! COME LOOK AT THIS DEAD GUY!!

[Sundown (Master)] Indigo do you think there is anything down there to bring...

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods. "Time to get back to work. Break time is over."

Talwin (Michael-14198) Whoa whoa whoa

[Thistle (Carissa)] takes the steps more carefully looking for ooze

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] The only thing you are doing is taking a good nap

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 30'07".

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Talwin moved 32'00".

[Thistle (Carissa)] HOWARDDDDDD!

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Talwin moved 32'00".

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Why am I looking at corpses?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] All right.

[Thistle (Carissa)] BECAUSE HE MIGHT BE *THE* BAD GUY!

[Thistle (Carissa)] I mean he tried to attack us so he probably is A bad guy!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum moved 49'06".

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 2'07".

Brer Necholas (TMO) murmurs a quick blessing and tosses a gold coin into the ooze as a sacrifice.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh there you are. Over here!

Thistle (Carissa) runs off again

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 16'07".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 23'03".

[Master] the Ooze devours it

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Black Cloak?

[Master] dissolves

Brer Necholas (TMO) follows Talwin to the others.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah! Like what Hoffman is wearing! Except Hoffman is alive.

[Thistle (Carissa)] And not a bad guy!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (don't think that's good luck)

[Emerald (Lara)] (I don't understand...we are in this room and now we are going to go BACK the way we came through the corridors?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (an offering to the gods, not to the ooze. ;) )

[Thistle (Carissa)] See? Look! He's got a ring, and a wand, and wrappers, and a cloak and stuff!

Hoffman (JohnA)] (sacrificing to grey ooze might be against Brer's religion)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (yeah but when the pool eats your coin ...)

Talwin (Michael-14198) Frowns

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 3'01".

[Thistle (Carissa)] (@Lara just to regroup and confirm who this is that died)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (that's what makes it a sacrifice. It's gone forever now)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum moved 33'03".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Is it him? Is it him??

Hoffman (JohnA)] (not sure we know of any other exit)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] I do wish we could take care of that. I seriously doubt our saint down there appreciates having that filth in her burial chamber

Talwin (Michael-14198) Shrugs

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] But I’ve been known to be wrong before

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 4'05".

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] So where is he?

Brer Necholas (TMO) shrugs. "We can come back with a wagonload of glass bottles later."

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH! I FORGOT TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE GIANT FLEAS! But Griff ate them so it's okay.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Right here!

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) holds up dead body head

Talwin (Michael-14198) Snorts

[Master (to Lisa only)] yes

Talwin (Michael-14198) Chuckles, and then laughs

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Lot of Glass bottles

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] We could chuck them at our enemies

Howard Plum (Lisa) opens mouth

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] You killed him.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] The one that did all of this

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Come on.

[Thistle (Carissa)] "Open your mouth any wider and a fly will fly in it!"

Hoffman (JohnA)] Yes, yes I did

[Emerald (Lara)] "Sundown, would you be willing to get my dagger out of the pile of dead ghouls?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 30'09".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Grandma always told me that.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] That is the one that took Lord Branadarus' head

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oooo! So we DID kill the bad guy??

[Sundown (Master)] What?

[Sundown (Master)] You left a dagger in there?

[Sundown (Master)] Do you know which one?

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) shakes head and mutters 'we'

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol)

[Emerald (Lara)] "I didn't know that anyone would be touching the ghouls after the paralysis issue"

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Glad it was him this time

[Emerald (Lara)] "yes, um...#22 (lo)

[Master] lol

[Thistle (Carissa)] Maybe next time he shouldn't sneak up on us! That was rude.

[Sundown (Master)] I think it will be easiest to find it after the bodies burn

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 19'11".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you Hoffman and Thistle and Tiberius for killing this vile man

Thistle (Carissa) beams

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) nods

[Emerald (Lara)] "Oh! Good idea Sundown. Um, was there a plan to burn the bodies?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] So you got him after all?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You were wonderful.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah! Look!

Thistle (Carissa) points to dead body

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) thinks were is too true

[Master] Sundown moved 3'01".

[Master] Brer Necholas moved 31'01".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But we need to bring the body back to Quelcon

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm, he didn't profess his dying love or obsession to you when he died, though. He just kinda... gurgled.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (keep wanting to type Quallcom)

Hoffman (JohnA)] I can take upstairs for now

Hoffman (JohnA)] but then I need to rest

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I pray he stays that way.

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Why are we going back upstairs?

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] What is down there?

Thistle (Carissa) sniffs the air, "Smells like fire."

Hoffman (JohnA)] Go look if you wish, I am in no condition

[Emerald (Lara)] "Sundown. Is there a plan to burn the bodies?"

Hoffman (JohnA)] I will guard the body

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We need to wrap up the body as best we can to take it home but I do not think we need to go up just yet

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Sorry. Second wave of calls. BRB

Brer Necholas (TMO) wipes his forehead.

[Hoffman]] (JohnA) crouches down

[Branwyn (Lisa)] No one has looked at the statues. I am not sure if they have meaning

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmmp. Nope, I didn't either.

Hoffman (JohnA)] No one gets the body, I got it covered

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I wanted to see if fire will get rid of the grey ooze since I have spells I can cast now

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 33'10".

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Statues like the ones we used with the swords with the bugbears?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I had such plans for that wretch

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] it is still early, I think, I am not sure ooze is going anywhere fast

[Emerald (Lara)] (Does the desk have papers and stuff on it?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I wanted to blind him so he could no longer have line of sight

Branwyn (Lisa) lost in thought

[Master] yes paper ink quills

Brer Necholas (TMO) tilts his head. "It's not good to dwell too much on those thoughts, Blessed One."

[Master] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUJccK4lV74

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And then I was going to burn his books and then ...

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs

[Thistle (Carissa)] Can someone who raises dead come back from the dead? Is he dead dead?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are right Necholas

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So in this case my hands stayed clean. Agree?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Yes. And thank you.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] For not making you have to try to kill me?

[Emerald (Lara)] (can I appraise the quills?)

Branwyn (Lisa) grins

Brer Necholas (TMO) smiles. "From your lips to the gods ears."

[Master] They are suitable for writing spells with very high quality

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

[Emerald (Lara)] (how many are there?)

[Master] 4

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (does Foto have speak with dead?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (just for fun?)

[Emerald (Lara)] (are any of them marked with insignias?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Oh. I nearly forgot...

[Emerald (Lara)] (do they seem to belong to anyone?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it's black cloak's office)

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (yes, he does)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] He was doing something down there. Some sort of ceremony. But I have no idea what he was trying to do.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I could feel it, but not understand it.

[Master] not that Emerald can tell from looking at them on the desk, you would have to pick them up and look over them careful

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Raising that mummy perhaps?

Emerald (Lara) picks up a quill to examine

[Emerald (Lara)] (should I roll OBS or APPRAISE?)

[Master] save versus magic

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have a hard time thinking he would have burnt his own books

Brer Necholas (TMO) shrugs. "I hope that wouldn't be possible with the body of a saint."

[Emerald (Lara)] (was that for Emerald?---save versus magic?)

[Master] yes

[Emerald (Lara)] (okay. can't figure out how to do that)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (right click, dice panel, the round circle tab)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (between sword and anvil)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (it says "magical spell")

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=12] 12 - ROLL FAILED against 13!!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so close)

[Emerald (Lara)] (THANK YOU!@Carissa)

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=12] 12 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh not yours)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (much better than mine)

[Emerald (Lara)] (did I do that right?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and the quill flies around the room and stabs Thistle)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (er... well the same but has the ability to save)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (LOL)

[Master] Emerald picks up the Quill and DROPS it quickly as it feels like it is burning her fingers,

[Master (to Lara only)] magical quill used to write necromantic spells

[Emerald (Lara)] "Oh my. That's Artemis telling me to keep my hands to myself."

[Emerald (Lara) (to Master only)] (VERY COOL!!)

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 35'05".

[Emerald (Lara)] "Sundown, did we have a plan to burn the bodies?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (anything else to look at down there?)

[Emerald (Lara)] "...I mean a plan to burn the bodies?"

[Indigo (Lisa)] Would the ooze eat the ghouls?

[Sundown (Master)] I was waiting to make sure where we were going to be

Sundown (Master) looks at Indigo that might be a good idea

[Indigo (Lisa)] I think it would eat me if I went in there

[Emerald (Lara)] "I understand."

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 36'10".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Just need to be careful not to splash any on yourself

[Indigo (Lisa)] You cut their heads off? We could try a head

[Master] the only hint I will give is that there is a dais there with what two characters thought were signs of ceremonies and possible spell casting but no spell casters or such have examined or looked around them

[Thistle (Carissa)] (spellcasters: go!)

Sundown (Master) picks up a head

[Indigo (Lisa)] (yes we need to look at them)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Don't throw it hard!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Soooooo what's going on in here? What'd we miss?

[Master] Sundown moved 27'07".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We can go back down and look around

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Emerald lost her dagger in a ghoul. We're going to find it by burning away all the ghoul with ooze, leaving just the dagger behind.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Just please stay away from the sarcophagus

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh fun! I can help!

[Lara] I am back at the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 60'08".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 49'00".

Brer Necholas (TMO) follows Branwyn

[(Lisa)] Howard Plum moved 55'03".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 53'10".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Wooooww that's fancy.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Foto - want to look too as a caster?)

[Thistle (Carissa) (to GM only)] Thistle: Fortune Telling check: (d20) [1d20=12] 12 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 13!!

[Master] The head sinks in

[(Lisa)] Indigo moved 11'11".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Did it work?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm did you just toss a head in that??

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (for a sec maybe, but he does not have much)

[Master] it slowly starts to decay but not anywhere near as fast as metal

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] I will be right back Hoffman

[Thistle (Carissa)] (roll it in iron dust)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Ewwww! That's not what I thought

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos moved 32'05".

[Indigo (Lisa)] But it did get rid of it

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 44'05".

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos moved 24'06".

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 16'01".

Howard Plum (Lisa) looks at the statues this time

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Religion check: (d20) [1d20=1] 1 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 8!!

Thistle (Carissa) looks around the area

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos moved 24'02".

[Thistle (Carissa)] (oooh nice he sees all things now)

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos: Detect Unsafe Wall, Ceiling & Floor check: (d20) [1d20=11] 11 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!

[Master] They are warrior statues that look similar to Ilero, not in a familial way but as from the same place he was from

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Blackwaterines)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] These statues don't look religious

[Master] Foto can see a small stone cairn in front of the sarcophagus and there are candles and other magical paraphernalia

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] They do look a little like Ilero and that guild member of his from Blackwater

[Master] Foto can also see there are 4 blocks holding up the lid that are white marble not from this room

[Emerald (Lara)] (lol. didn't we already go through this??)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I wonder if Blackwater ever held this place

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (the statues?)

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] I would bet Black Cloak propped up the coffin lid for some devious reason

[Master] The statues are of the native stone, the four blocks are white marble and not part of this place

[Master] and yes to Lara but those that were here did not convey any of the information to the others

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] He had no respect for the dead

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm, well yeah. He was raising them without their permission.

[Thistle (Carissa)] I mean, maybe it was their permission, but who wants to be a ghoul or wight??

[Emerald (Lara)] (let a sleeping corpse lie)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I haven't run into anyone yet.

Branwyn (Lisa) looks to see if she can determine what Brer was talking about

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Spellcraft check: (d20) [1d20=10] 10 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (yay! fill in the blanks for us!)

[Master] Branwyn can tell that the candles and marble and other markings as a summoning spell and a command spell she does not understand what the small cairn of stones is for

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All of these candles and markings were for a summoning spell

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Perhaps the fire?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But the cairn of stones was for a command spell

[Master (to Lisa only)] to summon the spirit back and control the saint

Branwyn (Lisa) shakes her head

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Commanding What?

[Master (to Lisa only)] you do not understand what the small cairn is all about it does not make sense

[Branwyn (Lisa)] No not fire summoning as that was not a magical fire

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I think Talwin built the stones.

Branwyn (Lisa) looks at the sarcophagus

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I think he was trying to summon Tiera's spirit back into its body

[Emerald (Lara)] "Yes, Talwin piled the stones"

Branwyn (Lisa) chuckles

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Talwin made the cairn?

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is why I could not understand it

Brer Necholas (TMO) chuckles.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You would make one to command but it was not clear to me as the other

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We were lucky he did not finish his summoning

[Branwyn (Lisa)] and so was Tiera I imagine

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That spirit should be left in peace

Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA) nods

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (that's a nod with a more sharp than necessary downward movement)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Now let us see about that ooze

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I hope there was no way for him to succeed, but who can tell the depths evil can reach?

[Master] (Carissa lost power too, no internet yet)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I still have power!)

Branwyn (Lisa) walks to it and cantrips a small flame on to it

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 11'00".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Cantrip Proficiency check: (d20) [1d20=13] 13 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!

[Master] the flame does not seem to do any extra harm

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 60'00".

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] OH right!

Branwyn (Lisa) watches

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hmmm

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] We found a little black pudding

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] back in one of the coffins

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Doesn't affect it like the black ooze

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] We burned it

Branwyn (Lisa) looks up "Did you kill it?"

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] Uncle Fotopoulos moved 18'10".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Lovely!

Carissa has joined the game on Fri Jul 17 21:48:36 EDT 2020

Carissa is receiving the map Catacombs secret section...

Carissa has received the map Catacombs secret section.

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] It is good those coffins are stone and not wood

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Welcome back)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I had planned to fireball this pool but I don't think it will work

[Carissa] (thanks. light flickered again so let's hope power stays on. must be contagious tonight)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (my power went out yesterday - must be one of those things going around)

[Master] Fireball would do damage, not immune to fire, just not reacting like the black puddings do

[Carissa] (man it jumps coasts fast!)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Maybe they're like slugs. Anybody have any salt?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! I do!

Thistle (Carissa) pulls out a little container of salt

[Thistle (Carissa)] Gotta keep it to season the food, right? Jilly told me to take it.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (The grid was not designed for primary home wattage usage. The grid is focused on commercial and industrial sectors and have additional substation routers in place for them.. All the people sucking up electricity at home right now is straining the grid like you wouldn't believe

[Brer Necholas (TMO)]

Thistle (Carissa) hands it to Brer

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Another point of irritation with an agining infrastructure)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol TMO)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Can't type tonight. Sorry)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (ahh so many points on that subject, though, lol)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Yeah, don't get me started)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] lol

Brer Necholas (TMO) tosses a pinch of salt into the pool.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (from a healthy distance)

[Master] Michael did you see the comments about your cairn of rocks

[Master] and the salt goes into the ooze with no visible effect

Brer Necholas (TMO) hands the salt pouch back to Thistle.

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (LOL. I just did. Sorry. I'm still catching up. Sorry Lisa. I think Brer told you though)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Just trying to be respectful)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Didn't want to risk lighting the candles

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (was good!)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you baffled Branwyn. she could not make out your spell casting)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we can check for secret doors on each wall?)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Would be something to behold since you know...Talwin can't cast. LOL)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (just in case)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)

Thistle (Carissa) puts it back in her pack

[Master] Emerald might want to speak up about what she found now that she sees how Branwyn was confused with what Talwin did

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (the simplest mind can ask a question that baffles the wisest sage. ;) And Talwin can confuse a high mage)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] lol

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (nice)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] lots of laughs tonight

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] I like nights like this

[Emerald (Lara)] (you mean at the desk?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (ooc laugh at that. since we're apparently super serious)

[Master] yes so far no one else knows that

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (only when I’m likely to die from something)

[Emerald (Lara)] "By the way, the desk over there has quills that burned when I picked them up."

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Did john leave?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (he shows as still online)

[Uncle Fotopoulos (JohnA)] (not yet)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] OK

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (*poke*)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ohhh are you all right Emerald?

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Just trying to keep track still. Thanks)

[Emerald (Lara)] "Phyn claimed there was dangerous ink"

[JohnA] but it is time, have fun all, see you another time

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The man has put a trap on everything.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Goodnight John!)

[JohnA] Uncle Fotopoulos moved 56'07".

[Emerald (Lara)] "Yes, I only picked up one quill and dropped it quickly because it was hot to the touch)

[JohnA] Uncle Fotopoulos follows [Hoffman]].

JohnA has left the game on Fri Jul 17 21:57:23 EDT 2020

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Mind if I look it over, see if he left any evil magic behind?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I suppose someone could cast a dispel magic on it or we can just get rid of them.

[Thistle (Carissa)] (night john)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (bye john)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Certainly

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 5'06".

[Thistle (Carissa)] How can ink be dangerous?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 42'11".

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Night)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] The ink is supposedly more dangerous than the dead body up there.

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas: Detect Evil Intent: By focusing for an entire round, I can detect evil intent or actions in a location or group up to 60' away and 10' wide.

[Master] The quills are normal quills that have been used for evil purpose, necromantic spells

Thistle (Carissa) scratches head, confused

Brer Necholas (TMO) relays that information on to the rest.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh so... they're evil now, right?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All right we can take care of that

[Emerald (Lara)] "I imagine they belong to the man you call Black Cloak."

Branwyn (Lisa) takes out a handkerchief and goes to pick up a quill

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 39'04".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (... and then it exploded_

Branwyn (Lisa) takes a quill

[Master] lifts up easily

[Emerald (Lara)] "Doesn't anything made magical STOP being magical when the caster dies?"

Branwyn (Lisa) and walks over and carefully drops it in the ooze

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 6'02".

[Master] Only a spell that active when he or she dies

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (that link is terrible)

[Master] the quill sinks into the ooze

[Emerald (Lara)] (so the quill burned me but no Branwyn? does that mean anything?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Evil quill no more

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] https://i.imgur.com/0G3aCJ2.mp4

[Thistle (Carissa)] (she used cloth so it could be the flesh contact)

[Master] that Emerald is very opposed to necromantic magic

[Thistle (Carissa)] (also that)

[Master] there was no actual damage from picking it up

[Emerald (Lara)] (ah...)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (you're just over sensitive)

[Emerald (Lara)] (that makes sense, considering)

Branwyn (Lisa) goes back and takes the others and does the same

[Emerald (Lara)] (hey, being sensitive can be a good thing)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (whatever you do, don't sleep on a stack of mattresses - there might be a pea underneath somewhere)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't really want to take the exploding ink

[Thistle (Carissa)] It explodes??

[Emerald (Lara)] (you just made me a Princess! backstory!!!)

[Thistle (Carissa)] That sounds fun!

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Emerald has a quill allergy. Very tragic.)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Phyn said it before he went upstairs

[Emerald (Lara)] (ahchoo! sniffles)

[Emerald (Lara)] "I don't know how Phyn knew anything about the ink, but I took his word for it"

[Thistle (Carissa)] But how does it explode? Like... exposed to air? When you say the wrong word? Is it a fiery explosion or glitter? That could be fun! Write letters that explode into glitter!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I suppose you would have to pick it up to find out

[Emerald (Lara)] "I can change it into something safe, it you'd like"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Let's not toss it into the ooze.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Griff (dog) moved 22'08".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Griff (dog) moved 40'02".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Griff (dog) moved 81'10".

[Master] Skarphedin moved 56'06".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Griff (dog) moved 125'07".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If you could do that safely Emerald that would be very nice

Griff (dog) (TMO) sniffs one of the columns.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Wait are you telling me to pick it up?

[Emerald (Lara)] "Does anyone have any water?"

[Emerald (Lara)] (how much ink is there?)

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

[Master] Just to be aware that thieves are the ones who disable traps the hard way, anyone can disable it the easy way

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Did you want to try the ring instead?

[Emerald (Lara)] "I'm sorry, Branwyn, were you talking to Thistle?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If Black Cloak wore it, it didn't harm him

[Branwyn (Lisa)] About the ring? Yes. She had asked earlier

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You should not wear a necromancer's ring

[Master] These are small glass jars of ink, 4 inches tall round pots of ink

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am also sure Necholas would not like any of us wearing it either

[Emerald (Lara)] I agree.

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! Yeah I forgot about the ring!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Did you wish to examine the ring and the wand Necholas?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle: Find/remove traps check:(d100) [1d100=98] 98 - ROLL FAILED against 5!!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Hmmm, it's very plain looking for ink....

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (a 5? ouch)

Brer Necholas (TMO) shrugs. "If you like. I don't know that I'll be able to see anything, but it can't hurt to try."

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol well I didn't expect Ilero to retire so didn't focus on traps for her...)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so every time Brer gets paralyzed Thistle should detect a trap)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (ain't nobody can be good at everything)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (LOL)

[Master] So Thistle does not find any traps

[Thistle (Carissa)] (so she's due for it and yet...)

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 56'02".

[Master] There are three bottles there on the desk, Phyn said one of them is trapped

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Sorry, I think I am going to call it a night myself. Getting pretty tired.)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (eeny meeny miney moe)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh what if we toss rocks at them? Like a game?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Goodnight Ryan!)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (night Ryan!)

[Master] Next week Ryan, stone work questions

[Master] etc.

[Master] as they try to figure out what to do about this place

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Expect lots of exasperated looks, everyone. "How do you NOT immediately recognize the various grades of granite based on smell? Are you babies?)

[Master] exactly

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (LOL)

[Master] like how did they make two secret doors of stone

Ryan has left the game on Fri Jul 17 22:13:49 EDT 2020

[Emerald (Lara)] "Branwyn, do you think it is worth the trouble to change the ink into water?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol look forward to it)

Brer Necholas (TMO) sets the ring and wand on the table and looks at them.

[Emerald (Lara)] (gnite Ran!!)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas: Detect Evil Intent: By focusing for an entire round, I can detect evil intent or actions in a location or group up to 60' away and 10' wide.

[Emerald (Lara)] Ryan

[Master] Neither the wand or ring are evil or cursed

[Emerald (Lara)] "Brer, what about the ink?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] They seem to be safe. But I'd still probably do some research first, just in case.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is good to know. Thank you.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (has the ink shown anything on either look?)

[Master] nope

Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes his head. "Sorry.:"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't Emerald. I don't think we need to preserve our spells for today so if it something that you want, that would be fine with me.

[Emerald (Lara)] "Branwyn, are all the quills gone? I know you put at least one in the ooze"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I got rid of all of them

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If you need a quill you can have one of mine. I have a spare in my pack

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Speaking of which ...

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! Maybe you can get a feather from Fete to make a quill! They're pretty feathers.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Tiberius! Can you please bring our packs and the potion chest down here please!

[Emerald (Lara)] (OOC...when we rest, do we need to drink water and eat? I don't know how much water a character can cantrip"

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Sure thing, Come on Indigo you can hold the door open so we don't get locked out.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Okay

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 23'02".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 45'01".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 24'09".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 55'10".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 57'08".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 75'08".

[Thistle (Carissa)] (technically, but it's kind of one of those things where it's assumed we have all the water we need unless something is really out of place)

[Emerald (Lara)] (ok)

[Master] and also you have Priests who can typically summon up food if needed

[Thistle (Carissa)] (yep)

[Master] you are missing Jilly who can conjure up just about anything you want to eat

[Indigo (Lisa)] (and we can cantrip about a pitcher's worth so we can take care of that easily into our skins etc.

[Emerald (Lara)] ""Thank you Branwyn. I will leave the ink alone."

[Emerald (Lara)] (thank you---cantrip about a pitcher; that's a lot of water!)

[Master] It takes Indigo and Tiberius a few rounds to negotiate the two secret doors to not let them close behind them and maneuver the chest and supplies back down into this chamber

[Master] While that is happening anything else to explore investigate?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we can check for secret doors and see if anyone rolls great)

[Emerald (Lara)] "Have we decided that you...disposed...of Black Cloak?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (since the elf disappeared)

[Emerald (Lara)] "I am not sure if there is a plan to take care of that."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It was Black Cloak and I will take responsibility with his family

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 20'04".

[Emerald (Lara)] "What are these things?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle: Find/remove traps check:(d100) [1d100=54] 54 - ROLL FAILED against 5!!

Griff (dog) (TMO) starts to lift his leg against one of the pillars.

[Thistle (Carissa)] (have I not hit 20ish rolls yet?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)

[Master] Plinths, short pillars that are flat on top that hold a space for offerings, candles, etc.

Branwyn (Lisa) looks for any secret doors on the left wall

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d12) [1d12=2] 2

[Emerald (Lara)] "Have we made sure that none of these plinths open a secret door?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (drat)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Griff, no.

Griff (dog) (TMO) pauses a moment before lowering his leg back down.

[Thistle (Carissa)] (d12) [1d12=6] 6

[Emerald (Lara)] "What about these really tall statues with shields?"

[Master] Indigo and Tiberius come back

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Do you really think you can find a secret door without magic?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d12) [1d12=11] 11

Thistle (Carissa) following Branwyn's lead to look

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I see nothing

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 1'00".

Emerald (Lara) touches the first plinth

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Griff, follow. Let's see if we can find a safer place for you.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'll have a better look tomorrow. Never hurts to try

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 1'08".

Emerald (Lara) touches the second plinth

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 4'05".

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] OK. I'm so sorry guys, but it looks like I’m going to have to log off for tonight. I apologize. Is there anything I can help with before I go?

[Emerald (Lara)] touches the third plinth

[Thistle (Carissa)] (roll for secret door finding)

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 3'06".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (nite Michael)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I don't have anything for that. lol)

[Emerald (Lara)] touches the fourth plinth

[Thistle (Carissa)] (d12)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Thanks! Goodnight Michael!)

[Master] I think you are good for now Michael check the OOC during the week to see what plans people make

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Night everyone. Thanks for a fun evening!)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (dunno if Bob is looking at those, though, lol)

[Thistle (Carissa)] night)

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OK Bob. :) )

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 1'04".

Michael-14198 has left the game on Fri Jul 17 22:27:19 EDT 2020

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 18'07".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (if you roll a 1 we will make him look - or not)

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 18'09".

Emerald (Lara) touches the fifth plinth

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 3'07".

Emerald (Lara) touches the sixth plinth

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 3'11".

Emerald (Lara) touches the seventh plinth

Brer Necholas (TMO) leads Griff upstairs.

[Emerald (Lara)] Emerald moved 3'05".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas and Griff (dog) moved 43'01".

Emerald (Lara) touches the eighth plinth

[Emerald (Lara)] "The plinths don't open anything..."

[Master] nice thought Lara

[Master] and here is where I think we should go Out of Character

[Master] and talk about what your plans actually are here

[Master] how to wrap this up, what to do etc.

[Carissa] no clue

Brer Necholas (TMO) leads Griff to a good spot near-ish to the Ghoul bodies.

[Master] you know Mike is not likely to be back next week, I messaged Lisa his contact info

[Master] We know that Hoffman is going to take charge of this place for Branwyn

[Master] but getting from here in this room to the end of the story arc

[Master] what do you do?

[Master] as I said on the site, if you just walk away, it leads to Fourth time foolish

[Master] so throw out ideas

[Master] the other part is to help Lara with Emeralds spells

[Lara] there has to be a way out of this room. it is the end.

[TMO] find out who the patrons who come here are and why they come

[Master] but I think that should be next week or later

[Lara] we wouldn't be walking back through the crypts

[Master] Lisa thoughts on that?

[TMO] we've lost another elf. who wants to make the next one?

[Master] this storm is still around here by the way, I have a new weather station on the house, it has detected 547 lighting in the last 3 hours

[Lara] OH MAN!

[Master] the one that just happened rattled the windows

[Lara] that is a lot of lightning

[Master] that is also within 20 miles of the house

[Master] so lots out over the Everglades

[TMO] ick

[Master] but deep hard thunder

[Master] again and again right now

[TMO] how are you doing at keeping safe from the covids?

[TMO] since your state is one of the crazy crazy ones

[Master] I am as safe as can realistically be

[Lara] I have not gone to the office in over 3 months, I haven't seen any of my friends in person

[TMO] the impression we get is that Florida is not very realistic

[Master] I go back and forth to work

[Lara] Florida is not very realistic? Not sure what you mean?

[Carissa] you still go to work??

[TMO] out of touch with reality

[Master] stop for groceries as few times as possible

[Carissa] Florida and Georgia. Not sure which of you is most out of touch.

[Master] they shut down libraries to the public but the staff still has to go in

[Lara] Can you believe that BOB can 't work from home? that ridiculous

[Carissa] Ahhh got it

[Lisa] sorry I heard planning and ran screaming from the computer

[Lisa] I'm better now

[Master] LOL

[Carissa] My librarian Texas friend had the same. To the building once a week, home the rest of the week working. Think she still is.

[TMO] lol

[Lara] oh, you mean most Floridians are idiots and think that the COVID won't kill them?

[Carissa] I mean.... your politicians at least

[Lara] ROFLMAO...

[TMO] well, truthfully, it won't kill *most* of them. Most will survive. But many more will die than actually had to.

[Lisa] most states are crazy right now

[TMO] Texas here

[Lara] we get a lot of out of town people too who want to "be on vacation" at the beach

[TMO] fortunately we've barely been touched in my county. Too rural. But it's arrived now.

[TMO] it's gotten into the prison.

[Carissa] Too many will be permanently disabled by it.

[Carissa] Yeah family in Dallas. Which is a mess.

[Lara] unless you have someone who had to go into ICU, many people don't seem to believe there is an issue

[Carissa] And as I asked you back in March: are you sure? or are they still not testing enough? :)

[TMO] our total count jumped from 20 to 59 in 2 days.

[TMO] all prisoners, we're told

[Carissa] Coworker in March was in ICU. Cousin had to go back briefly to work ICU. Friend hospitalized. Another lucky and managed at home. It sucks.

[Lara] it's bad. someone on my team had COVID right in the beginning.

[TMO] I can only go by the numbers we're given. :) I'm not about to go holding my own survey.

[Lara] South Floridians have a strange sense of invincibility and grandiosity

[Carissa] lol fair

[Lara] like bad things won't touch them

[Carissa] Our cases now are mostly being traced to people flying in from other states so... you know, please stay away from us thanks!

[Lisa] It's all over the place. CA can't keep it under control either

[Carissa] Ha! Florida or Texas?

[Lara] I am more concerned with the long-term effects that we might not know about. Fertility, birth defects...

[Lara] maybe Mike was right, too serious?

[Lisa] lol

[Master] lol

[Carissa] :)

[Lisa] if we want to talk about health maybe we should start with the group's understaffed health care system

[Lisa] we are down to Foto healing powers

[Master] Mike could create a new priest from the Church of Otterville

[Master] or Mario could reappear
