[Master] Hello
[Lisa] Hello
[Master] computer issues resolved?
[Lisa] yes
[Master] great
[Lisa] was last thing he tried before he said I would have to drive downtown to the office
[Master] Lara, Spring, Ryan and Michael have all said they are running late
[Master] ouch
[Lisa] Carissa said she would likely be late too
[Master] yes
[Lisa] want to do silly boring stuff of only interest to mages?
[Master] sure
[Lisa] Bran can cast detect on the 2nd wand and read magic on the spellbooks with Howard as back up if spell runs out or something
[Master] excellent
[Master] are we doing that in the main church? or in the bedroom? or down in the secret room?
[Lisa] we just brought them back from farmhouse and everything else was in the office
[Master] Ok office it is
[Lisa] do it now before we have to entertain?
[Lisa] oh ok TMO said he would be a while
[Lisa] so we have more time
[Master] yeap
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 53'08".
[Master] Howard Plum moved 33'04".
[Master] Indigo moved 25'02".
Branwyn (Lisa) takes out second wand and looks at it then casts
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn casts a spell against : Detect Magic - Wizard: For (2*12) 24 rounds I can detect magic in a 10'x60' path in front of me.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d100) [1d100=55] 55
[Master] Control Humanoids
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hmmm ...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This will control humanoids. Perhaps designed for the goblins
[Branwyn (Lisa)] These are not nice wands. But I will tell Hoffman in case he wishes to make use of it.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Now the books. Let's start with the nice pink book, shall we?
Branwyn (Lisa) Settles onto the bed with the books spread out in front of her
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn casts a spell against : Read Magic: I can read magical writing for (12*2) 24 rounds
Branwyn (Lisa) opens the pink book
[Master] The pink book is a beginners spell book apparently it contains Read Magic and Magic Missile
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This is simple. maybe Dahlia would like it one day
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Now how about ... hmmm ... The Dark Reach
Branwyn (Lisa) takes it and opens it
[Master] between the 3 books there are 23 spells
[Master] I make Man in Cloak a PC so you can see the spell list
Branwyn (Lisa) flips through the pages
[Master] the key ones - Blackmantle
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He has quite the collection. Almost two dozen spells within these
[Master] Contingency
[Master] Wall of Bones
[Master] Cloudkill
[Master] Minor Globe of Invulnerability
[Master] Hold Undead
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (mage spell?)
[Master] and the interesting one is Death Recall
[Master] all Necromancer type spells
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We'll have to look at these more closely when we get home

Carissa is receiving the map Church Ground Floor...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Some of these might have some use for us
Carissa has received the map Church Ground Floor.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Hi Carissa!)
[Carissa] (Hello!)
[Lisa] That's all I'm doing this game day. The last spell book has a trap on it
[Lisa] Don't feel like getting trapped today
[Carissa] Magic trap?
[Lisa] think so
[Carissa] Do we have an idea what level he is? Dispel might work...?
[Lisa] It's on a spell book so odds are it isn't just a needle or something
[Lisa] Black Cloak was 12th I believe
[Carissa] lol realized that after I asked; brain may not be functioning correctly today it seems
[Lisa] but this spell book was in the office and not in the farmhouse so it might not be his
[Carissa] ahh so we just need Branwyn to Dispel.... ;)
[Lisa] Hah!
[Carissa] One of the priests can try or we'll do it another day
[Carissa] I skimmed that chat. Has to be same level to dispel as who casted, right?
[Lisa] Yes. Think everyone is out of dispel magics today
[Lisa] no - but need to roll high enough to dispel x many levels higher than the caster
[Lisa] I can memorize Unseen Servant for tomorrow and just let it open it to save spells if the casters don't want to try again
TMO has joined the game on Fri Sep 18 19:23:19 EDT 2020
TMO is receiving the map Church Ground Floor...
[Carissa] So if 12th level... need to roll higher than 12? Any advantage if the caster is already high? Or does a 1st level have same chances as 10th level and it's all in the die?
TMO has received the map Church Ground Floor.
[Lisa] don't think springing the trap will destroy the book
[Carissa] Damn internet almost kicked me
[Carissa] Oh well that works
[Carissa] Hmmm I might actually restart computer. It's been lagging since I got on. Might be that not internet...
[Lisa] it's this complicated formula that I didn't really try to figure out since it's not Branwyn's thing
[Lisa] John knows :)
[Carissa] lol fair

[Lisa] Hi Michael!
[Carissa] Hi TMO! I'm not the imposter.
[Carissa] Hi Michael!
[Michael-14198] Hi All - Heads up, I'm a bit tired so might fade in and out. But, I will do my best to keep up. I'm here if you need me though :) Thanks for your Patience.
[Lisa] Is John showing up?
[TMO] HI! AND WE ALWAYS NEED YOU mICHAE
[TMO] APPARENTLY CAPS LOCK HAS BEEN HIT
TMO tones down the volume
[Carissa] WE NEED YOU SO MUCH TMO IS YELLING AT YOU
[Michael-14198] Carissa? You been playing some "Among us?"
[Michael-14198] "TMO is the IMposter!"
[Carissa] With TMO and some other friends :)
[Michael-14198] Never played
[Michael-14198] Heard good things
[Carissa] Found out that that TMO won't hesitate to kill me AND he's a good liar.
[TMO] we've stabbed each other in the back a few times
[Michael-14198] Play fall guys yet? lol
[Carissa] "Whatt? Nooo. I definitely wasn't near that dead body guys. Not me. I'm innocent TMO."
[Carissa] Not yet, but seen it. Looks fun.
[Michael-14198] Yeah, need to try out Among us. You know...when I have nonexistent time
[Michael-14198] One day
[Michael-14198] One day...
[Michael-14198] :)
[Carissa] lol that's why you make time
[Carissa] and realize sleep is for the weak
[Carissa] and then regret it
[Michael-14198] Yep. I suppose... (Anyhoo, did I mss anything?)
[Michael-14198] Oh god
[Michael-14198] Sleep? What's that?
[Carissa] Dunno anymore
[Michael-14198] hehe
[Michael-14198] How was work this week TMO?
[Carissa] But my computer is really lagging. I'm goign to restart it and router since I'm not sure which to blame
[Carissa] brb
[Michael-14198] You do okay?
Carissa has left the game on Fri Sep 18 19:28:25 EDT 2020
[Michael-14198] OK Carissa. See you soon
[Lisa] Updated the party pack with info
[Master] thank you Lisa
[Master] did you look at his spell tab?
[Master] for his full listing?
[Lisa] Black Cloak?
[Master] yes
[Master] made him a PC so you can see the full list
[Lisa] You usually don't have NPCs all filled out
[Master] LOL
[Lisa] don't see him
[Master] I actually deleted a bunch of stuff
[Master] he is in the secret room, Man in Cloak
[Master] but his weapons and spells are there
[Master] there are more on his Notes page too
[Lisa] not on the left column of characters
[Lisa] also - do we still need 4 Als? :)
[Master] Man in cloak's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 1 (16) - Massively Wounded
[Lisa] wait - there he is
[Master] Man in cloak moved 6'01".
[Lisa] oh don't give him a hp
Man in cloak (TMO) dances. "I'm a muppet! I'm a muppet!"
[Master] thought you might not see him because of the dead
[Master] Man in cloak: No adjustments made.

Carissa has received the map Church Ground Floor.
[Master] Man in cloak's Current Hit Points: adjusted to -14 (-15) - Dead
[Lisa] ohh he has a skull he can send around biting people
[Carissa] GUYS I'M BACK AND LIFE SUCKS
[Lisa] that sounds like fun
[Lisa] ouch
[Lisa] what's wrong?
[Carissa] RBG DIED!! FUCK 2020!!!
[Master] Welcome back Carissa Black Cloak is alive and well and Branwyn just killed him again
[Master] crap
[Lisa] oh
[Lisa] she was doing well last I heard
TMO offers long-distance hugs, no hidden knives promised
[Carissa] Sorry. That was NOT a headline I expected as I booted back up
[Carissa] Shit man. Okay. Can't think about it right now but fuck.
[Lisa] and no there is no way they will ram another justice through before November
[Carissa] (I dunno, maybe that knife could be a good thin)
[Carissa] Sure as hell hope not, but never say never with those you know whats
[Carissa] At least cloak is dead again.
[Master] deep sigh
[Master] OK
[Master] have to move forward
[Master] sucks
[Master] but we can at least put that away until tomorrow
[Carissa] Yep have to get through tonight
[Master] and John just texted saying he will not be in tonight
[Lisa] ok ...
[Lisa] black cloak has some interesting spells
[Master] nods
[Carissa] Are they ones that can be learned or we just wanted to know?
[Carissa] Not that anything he knows is something someone good might use
[Master] All spells can be learned
[Master] but if you learn and use certain ones then ......
[Carissa] You evil?
[Lisa] not all are evil per se
[Lisa] Bran could learn Contagion and show up at the church to hand out blessings from the saint
[Lisa] not evil if they want it
[Master] true
[Lisa] the hovering skull isn't much different than manyjaws and actually tamer
[Lisa] one skull instead of 10- jaws
[TMO] since I decided to carry on with making Nerikan a necromancere, fun looking at a high level one.
[Master] So as Branwyn is absorbed in her books
[TMO] being able to cast 6th level spels is way up there
[Lisa] death recall is good for solving murders - set up a detective agency in the Non-Mist with a divination spell
[Master] see how much fun it can be!
[Lisa] cast divination to see who will get killed and show up after they die and see who did it :)
[Master] lol
[Master] and be accused of the murder
[Lisa] because you lose the fee if you prevent the murder
[Master] She always just happens to be around when they die your honor
[Lisa] coincidence
[Lisa] sorry - I'm done
[Master] not at all Lisa
[Master] you will have fun with these
[Master] but also Carissa, it did just dawn on my doing the research for the new Adventures in the Wastes story arc, Valoris Wood and the Wastes have only been under The Mist fo 50 years
[Carissa] Good to know
[Master] getting a snack brb as you decide how to deal with the Moat
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Carissa] (sorry was sidetracked why you both talked)
[Lisa] not sure we can deal with moat today game time unless Pete has a barrel of oil
[Lisa] don't think a flask or two will do it for total moat destruction
[Lisa] we should tell him to bring us some
[Lisa] we left off last week finishing with Ulgin
[Lisa] Maybe there is a service? Maybe we watch him move Tiera's arm? Not incredibly exciting
[Lisa] we sleep and then in morning Branwyn has to take BC home with whoever wants to go with - since John isn't in - maybe do that tonight?
[Lisa] Quellcon is only a couple hours away
[Carissa] I have no moat ideas
[Lisa] not sure we're going to be asked to stay for dinner :)
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Carissa] I haven't really been trying to brainstorm lately
[Carissa] So yeah up to you
[Lisa] fire should do it but a fireball just isn't potent enough for a moat that surrounds the whole church
[Lisa] thoughts on what you guys want to do tonight?
[Master] and I know it sucks but maybe have a discussion about what to do about the Church
[Master] right now Hoffman has been assigned by Branwyn to take it
[Carissa] I
[Lisa] I don't want to go there
[Master] ok
[Lisa] what did you want to talk about?
[Carissa] *I've been a bit more out of the loop for past few sessions. Otherwise I'd have more thoughts on what to do tonight and with things, but I don't...
[Master] it has been at least a month that we could have wrapped this up if John was in
[Lisa] But life happened
[Master] Yes like it did with Eric and his character who was the last to plan on controlling the church
[Lisa] But what he didn't want was to take it and be under Branwyn's thumb so I don't want to go make a bunch of decisions without him
[Master] ok
[Master] I get that
[Lisa] Branwyn would have said - no pool of crap
[Lisa] if you want your followers to dip in crap you can put it in a basin and they can drink it

[TMO] meant to do his config before logging in
[TMO] his system is sssllloooowwwww
[Master] OK so to be able to move forward tonight
[TMO] I apologize for being distracted setting him up
[Master] Branwyn can show Brer the new books
[TMO] wait! *I* am Brer!
[Master] and you can decide on who is leaving in the morning to Quellcon
[Spring] oh we don't need to go en masse?
[Master] it is up tot he group
[Lisa] originally we thought some would stay with Hoffman doing churchy things
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I say we leave the lowest level people here all by themselves
[Lisa] yay!
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (do we have any Guild members handy?)
[Lisa] Indigo will stay here
[Spring] (lanek)
[Master] lol TMO
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (to save everyone, Sundown will stay with Brer, wherever he winds up going)
[Lisa] I'm hoping this will just be a day trip
[Lisa] thought Brer would want to go for the Quellcon Brotherhood connection
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (ooc that works for me. ic is Branwyn going on that trip?)
[Lisa] yes she has to go
[Master] I can think of reasons IC to both go and not go for Brer
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (do we want to have the decision IC or OOC? I'm fine either way)
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] (hello everyone)
[Lisa] Hi JTom!
[Spring] hi JTom!
[Carissa] Hi JTom!
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (be afraid! week and a half until he's a teenager)
[Lisa] [Master] But the Quellcon family has supported The Brotherhood through the years [Master] and little known fact one of the few Brothers who has lived while his Brother died lives with them
[Lisa] BC had Alistone the Creator's spell book - they might know about that
[Lisa] Ohhh happy almost birthday JTom
[Lisa] And happy almost birthday to BOB who is a bit closer to his :)
[Master] chuckles I had my celebration last week
[Master] was good
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] (thank you and happy almost birthday BOB)
[Master] Thank you Sir
[Lisa] so whether Brer goes depends on if Brer wants to open a Brotherhood can of worms
[Lisa] and better than not going since no action here at church
[Lisa] just maybe hide the neon I'm in The Brotherhood lapel pin :)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I thought I burned that pin... ;) )
[Lisa] sorry - this is just the last of the last before we can move on - getting a little anstsy so we can start something else if we can finish this
[Lisa] angsty?
[Lisa] antsy?
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I'm more than happy for Brer to accompany Branwyn to the estate. It mostly depends of if she doesn't want him along)
[Spring] both those things?
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (for whatever reason)
[Lisa] lol Spring
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (antsy
[Lisa] can't even remember now whose album was called angst in my pants
[Lisa] must Google
[Lisa] the Sparks
[Lisa] anyway
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (they are both words, if that helps even a little)
[Spring] https://giphy.com/gifs/latenightseth-seth-meyers-lnsm-5q3NyUvgt1w9unrLJ9
[Lisa] I did that on purpose because of that album title I had stuck in the back of my head
[Lisa] I thought Branwyn and Brer had come to a semi-understanding of okayedness
[Lisa] unless I am wrong
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (no, I think so)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I'm just leaving you an out if you want it. :) )
[Lisa] of course not
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (next question is Sun. You okay with him coming too?)
[Lisa] oh sure
[Michael-14198] (Apolgies, using Bathrrom real quick. )
[Lisa] :)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (it might drive everyone nuts if we left him unsupervised)
[Master] Where Brer goes Sundown goes
[Master] Borthers stay together
[Master] never leave
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (yup)
[Michael-14198] (Yeah, but that package deal kind of sucks sometimes)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (so, anything else we need to discuss?)
[Michael-14198] (I could have left off the Rental Car and been fine)
[Michael-14198] (I think without John, might be kind of hard)
[Michael-14198] (But I'm willing to try if you need)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Hey! No one's tested the stairs yet
Indigo (Lisa) runs up the stairs to see if he gets hit with anything
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 76'08".
[Master] clear
[Michael-14198] (Wow, Lisa want' sout of here. LOLOL. Wait up lisa, we want to help!)
[Indigo (Lisa)] It worked!!
Indigo (Lisa) runs back down
[Michael-14198] (Lets' trip all the traps!)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm. Congrats.
Brer Necholas (TMO) eyes the stairs.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Great work Lanek!
[Michael-14198] I am back at the keyboard.
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Shakes his head, but smiles at Indigo
Lanek (Spring) grumbles
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Good job clearing those stairs. Anywhere else you want to scamper before we bail out of here?"
[Indigo (Lisa)] Oh I'm staying
[Indigo (Lisa)] You guys can go
Talwin (Michael-14198) Groans
[Indigo (Lisa)] I'll watch the church with Hoffman
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] But life is so much less fun without you.
[Lanek (Spring)] i stay
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Sigh
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] So. Are we officially splitting up?
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (The fellowship has failed)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (which way is Frodo going?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] What's wrong? Don't need me for this we killed your son in law speech
[Snezana (Spring)] i'll go
Talwin (Michael-14198) Raises hands.
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Ok, Ok"
Talwin (Michael-14198) Hesitates
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Howl ong do you intend on staying...Do you want us to go back, resupply and return?"
Talwin (Michael-14198) Glances around
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] "Or at least some of us?"
Talwin (Michael-14198) Surely Jilly can whip up some cakes or something?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I do not think the family will want us to stay long given our business there
Talwin (Michael-14198) Nods gravely
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Jilly is at Dragon Fen Talwin
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Alright
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Smiles
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] If I know Jilly, she has a stash somewhere home
Branwyn (Lisa) gathers the books that shows Black Cloak's misdeeds
[Master] a simple jaunt back to Dragon Fen does involve passing the goblin picket lines out there again
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Bearers of bad news aren't usually welcome for long.
Talwin (Michael-14198) Stomach growls. "Looks Embarassed'
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (a simple jaunt to Dragon Fen takes a couple days)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I do know that. I just think them being seperated without back up or supplies probably sucks)
[Master] it does
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Do you think Talwin would be better off here?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we have Pete and the basket of food)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] LOL
[Master] lol
[Master] Pete has a nice firm round leg
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not unless you don't want to play tonight)
[Master] at least a few pounds on him
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (pete to *bring* food)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Bob, If I leave Talwin here to support the team, do you have another Character I can play? I don't like leaving them alone here without a bruiser.)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (But I also don't mind goign either)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Indigo and Hoffman are offended)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Up to you guys)
[Master] You can play another Apprentice Carpeter along with JTom
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (michael - we cleaned this place out - totally safe)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Alright alright :) I just know bob.)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Or do I????)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I agree Necholas
Talwin (Michael-14198) Sighs
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Indeed
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Shall we get it over with?
[Brer Necholas (TMO) (to Carissa only)] had to mute your friend's Discord channel - notifications kept popping up over the chat here. ;) )
[Master] Branwyn moved 79'00".
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes, let's see if Pete has brought that horse so we can get Black Cloak onto the wagon
[Carissa (to TMO only)] lol don't blame you

[Snezana (Spring)] (shoot, i've only got the slow rot that doesn't work on meat)
[Carissa] (welll... you can slow the rot more...? probably well past that)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no clue what you just said Spring but sounds scary)
[Snezana (Spring)] (only works on plant things)
[Snezana (Spring)] "This spell increases the amount of time that fruits, vegetables, and grains remain wholesome and ripe. This spell will not take effect on meatof any kind."
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (animate dead - make him walk)
[Snezana (Spring)] (talking about keeping the body fron decaying too much)
[Snezana (Spring)] (LOL)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Dont' think Brer would ike that idea very much TMO hehe)
[Snezana (Spring)] (Ryan we have to return the bad guy's body. because politics)
[Ryan] I am back at the keyboard.
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (good times)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Does'nt it always boil down to Politics?)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (since zombies last forever, animating them obviously does something to keep them from rotting)
[Snezana (Spring)] (so are we all possed up?)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I think so, I think waiting for Bob)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Skarphedin moved 73'02".

Brer Necholas (TMO) holds up a 7 of spades. "Is this your card?"
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (YES! HOW DID YOU GUESS?)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Divine Inspiration.
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] So... How's it handing?
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] LOL ^Hanging
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] back
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (doing alright. back working on campus every day now, no more from home)

[Master] and glad for TMO
[Master] that you are safe

[Spring] :-(
[Master] I got a Dolphins Mask for my birthday
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (trying to remain that way. if any of my family get it, I'm doing my best to make sure it's not from me)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (that's not too bad)
[Snezana (Spring)] whew i think it's snack time!
[Master] so you head out
[Master] you make it to Farmers Turns
[Master] there is the burned out village there just along the path from Skull Church to the main road
Brer Necholas (TMO) checks for oncoming traffic.
Skarphedin (Ryan) checks for survivors, or bodies.
[Master] there is a small tent encampment there the Apprentices (Jtom) can tell you that is where they live
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] this is the place where we live
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do you like living in a tent?
[Master (to JTom only)] the burned wooden buildings are haunted you live in the tents to avoid the ghosts
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] yes
[Master (to JTom only)] you lost a dog to the ghosts, he went into a house and never returned
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Maybe if you want to stay here we can work on building you real houses
[Snezana (Spring)] but i bet tents are fun
[Snezana (Spring)] nobody has a tent where i am from
[Master (to Lisa only)] He looks a bit skittish when you say live in a house
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Even flimsier than other uplander buildings.
[Snezana (Spring)] if you have no house, you just sleep in a doorway until somebody make syou move
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] yea I think we would like to have houses
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We wil talk with your boss when we get back
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Or at least bigger tents!
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] ok
[Master] so heading north up the road
Skarphedin (Ryan) frowns. "Why not just make underground buildings? Dig into the stone."
[Master] one of the few sections of hills in Drillian
[Master] and you come upon a place where there is a large section of a small valley where nothing grows, the ground is flat and almost looks burned
[Snezana (Spring)] wow this is desolate
[Master] Branwyn can make a local history check
[Master] or anyone from Drillian
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Local History check: (d20) [1d20=13] 13 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!

[Talwin (Michael-14198)] LOL
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Branwyn: This is a place... and it has a history, I think.")
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (That one got me good)
[Master] This is obviously an old battlefield
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas: Local History check: (d20) [1d20=6] 6 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 19!!
[Master] and Branwyn knows that several battles were fought in the Craniate Wastes in the Third Drillian Civil War
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This looks like a battlefield but I do not know which
[Master] 162 years ago
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Likely from the civil war. Not the last one but before that
[Carissa] (Think I need to call it. I'm useless tonight)
[Master] the land still has scars from the magical engergies expended
[Master] HUGS Carissa
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (which site is it on the map?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is a shame that the land has not come back
[Master] Promise we understand
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (take care!)
[Snezana (Spring)] (aw, gnite carissa!)
[Carissa] (They didn't even wait one fing hour)
[Master] To get map of The Craniate Wastes environs moved 3'04".
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sorry Carissa - Goodnight!)
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Never! You are never useless!)
[Carissa] (Night all :/)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Night Carissa :)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Sleep tight
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Night, Carissal)
Carissa has left the game on Fri Sep 18 21:18:17 EDT 2020
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] (goodnight)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] This was the Battle of Hastilton Hill, I think.
[Master] (nice thank you)
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Brer and nods appreciatively
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Both sides pulled out their wizards.
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Usually they kept them in reserve rather than risk them on the battlefield.
Branwyn (Lisa) raises an eyebrow
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Wizards, or Sorceresrs)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Pulled out?
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Is there a diff in Bob 2.min?)
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (There's a hat that you store them in)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Used them actively in war rather than passively.
Brer Necholas (TMO) hums quietly to hiimself as he looks over the desolate area.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I suppose it all depends on what kind of caster you are whether you would be of use. But they caused great damage here.
Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Almost like dragons were used perhaps
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Great power, wreaking great death.
[Master] 14-2-187 SKR Queen Maribel Eustace marries her daughter Florence to her son Edward and names him Royal Consort to attempt to keep the inheritance of the throne in her family. 28-10-187 SKR after months of fighting the Eustace noble family is decimated by attacks and relinquishes the throne and marries Edward to the Bolpel family. One aspect of the settlement to end the Third Drillian Civil War is that Edward can only marry a member of the Bolpel family.
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] History doesn't mention dragons here.
[Master] See also http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.AdventuresInTheWastes
[Master] and grins, Spring you are welcome
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are likely right. I was just thinking the scale looked as such so the number and strength of the casters on this field must have been amazing
Brer Necholas (TMO) nods. "I don't remember the exact names, I'm afraid, but there were at least a dozen or two listed."
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I'm not very good with names, I'm afraid.
[Snezana (Spring)] (thanks, BOB! no idea yet for what, but i appreciate it!)
[Snezana (Spring)] (unless we are talking about laying the groundwork for wednesday :-)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We could likely find a book on the subject at home if you are interested. I think I should read more about the wastes if we are to take land here
[Snezana (Spring)] (looking forward!)
[Master] yeap
[Master] and yes to Lisa also
Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes his head. "No, thanks. I remember what I need to know. Reading the names again won't help me remember them."
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
[Master] movnig northward up the road you pass the side path that leads to the Quellcon mines
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I think you should have some copies of the books handy though. The history could be important to you living here.
[Master] then travel farther north into Quellcon proper
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We should be getting close now
[Master] you approach Quellcon Palace an honor guard approaches
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good Day
[Man in cloak (Master)] Countess Branwyn The Mystertious and company
Brer Necholas (TMO) fades back to the side of the group, as a normal guard would be.
[Man in cloak (Master)] Greetings from Lady Emerald
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I don't know that it's ever been said - do the PCs *know* that a former Brother lives here, or is that ooc info?)
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles "Greetings. Thank you. Is it possible to have an audience?"
[Man in cloak (Master)] ooc
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (thx)
[Man in cloak (Master)] The Lady is ready to recieve you and the body
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You make it sound as though we were expected
[Man in cloak (Master)] She has been with her daughter to console her
[Man in cloak (Master)] word arrived two days ago
[Branwyn (Lisa)] How ...
Branwyn (Lisa) thinks - Pete
[Man in cloak (Master)] The workers at the church requested additional funding and supplies
Man in cloak (Master) pauses
[Man in cloak (Master)] I do not mean to miss speak
Man in cloak (Master) bows
[Man in cloak (Master)] I am Baron Thogood
[Baron Thogood (Master)] I was waiting for your arrival
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you Baron.
[Baron Thogood (Master)] My sister is.... distraught
[Baron Thogood (Master)] I am supposed to by tradition offer you a trial by combat
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Goodl uck with that)
[JTom] I am away from the keyboard.
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles "You wish to fight me?"
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Not at all
[Baron Thogood (Master)] You choose the location and I choose the combatants
Brer Necholas (TMO) watches silently from under his hood.
Snezana (Spring) looks surprised
Talwin (Michael-14198) Growls low
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And you would not choose me?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] I would choose someone very appropriate for how I ..... appreciated my brother in law.... points to the apprentice carpenter... perhaps him?
Brer Necholas (TMO) smiles.
[Baron Thogood (Master)] He is worthy of representing my brother in law
Baron Thogood (Master) looks around
[Baron Thogood (Master)] unfortunately, there is no one else here to choose from
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Is he blind?)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] except myself
[Baron Thogood (Master)] for my side of the combat
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Congragulations. He is it by Defalut then)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And who would this apprentice fight?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] myself
[Snezana (Spring)] uhm, he's a carpenter's apprentice. are you gonna race to build a bookshelf?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] you shall choose the time and place
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Coward)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] adn who ever wins has gotten satisfaction
[Snezana (Spring)] he's a demon on the lathe
[Snezana (Spring)] you better break our your best plane
[Snezana (Spring)] (do you even sandpaper bro?)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Cast Illisuion on me as the Apprentice. He chose the person, but that can be word play)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] (LOL Spring)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Quote
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (He didn't specify him in sprirt)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Legal Loophole?)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] (you can go OOC is you like Lisa) [Branwyn (Lisa)] Perhaps we may speak with Lady Emerald first and then discuss combat and trials
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I'd totally defend the poor dude, even if I did die)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Yes that would be very permissible you are the one to choose the time and place
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (500 years from now. When you are dead you ass)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If this apprentice is fighting on behalf of Lord Witherbane, who are you representing?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] No I am fighting on behalf of the famly he will fight on behalf of you,
[JTom] I am back at the keyboard.
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Come on Lisa! He killed Branadarus. I'll support you either way, but this guy's a slimy weasel to target a damn apprentice. Sandpaper or otherwise :( )
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh when you said representing your brother in law I thought you meant something liek what you said
[Baron Thogood (Master)] If he wins, your side prevails, if I win the family honor has been revenged and all is right with the world
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] To death or first blood?
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] By prevails, you mean to say we get your land, titles, and riches?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] I will allow first blood
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (handsaws)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I so want to say - if we killed the apprentice you would have to pick someone else ...)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Sawdust in the eyes, and then a hammer to the head)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (/me smacks herself)
[Snezana (Spring)] (show him sand-da-floor!)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OH GOD. Pretend to kill him and "say" he's no longer available. He's dead to the world. Pleay on words without lying)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Sleep spell)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Oh that effing EPIC)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Spring, you're on a roll tonight lol)
[Master] I think this is one to talk otu OOC
[Master] what the ramifications of this are
[Master] So everyone understands
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I want to know if we win, if Bran gains a foothold and absorbs this house and land)
[Lisa] no
[Spring] heh
[Spring] not cool picking on an apprentice
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I think he's trying to set it up to be simple and painless - I got the impression he didn't like Witherbane at all)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Aww. So there is no benefit to winning. The feud continues)
[Lisa] this is what they told gate guy to tell us
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (so if he plinks him in the arm, Quellcon honor is satisfied and we all go home)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I mean, yeah, but still. The guy's an innocent. Sigh. I mean, you aren't wrong TMO, it just sucks)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OH! First bllod!)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I missed that!)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I'm so sorry!)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (I'm fine with that...i Mean, as long as he doesn't slaughter the dude)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (coud be weregild instead)
[Lisa] you want to attack the Baron JTom?
[Lisa] give him a sword
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] ok
[Master] Apprentice #8 moved 69'00".
[Lisa] I got the same impression as TMO - that Baron wasn't too happy to be doing this

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Fireballs at 6 inches.
[Master] Apprentice has a short sword, the Baron has a Spear
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Apprentice, I hope you know how to use it
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Countess, Shall I go first?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Remember that you may parry if you want to block the Baron's spear
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (What is this, swing at 2 paces? Go first?)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Get him JTOM! You got this)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I can loan the Baron a sword if he wants one.
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (gotta get JTom into here so I can guide himi)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Give him the one taht wants to stab it's owner. That would be funny.)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Sorry I'm so exciteable right now. I'm so tired, but I live for these moments)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (paladins don't often come equipped with cursed weapons)

[JTom] Apprentice #8 targets Baron Thogood . Distance: 7'10"
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Countess do you wish your man to go first?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Or shall I go?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Since you have a spear and my champion has but a sword I think it only fair that Champion Apprentice goes first
[Baron Thogood (Master)] very well
Baron Thogood (Master) bows to the Apprentce
Baron Thogood (Master) readies himself for the attack
Apprentice #8 (JTom) bows back
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] Apprentice #8: Attack: Short Sword: (20-(d20+0)) [1d20=12] 8. MISSES Baron Thogood (AC FINAL: 4).
Baron Thogood (Master) nods

[Snezana (Spring)] oh no!
[Baron Thogood (Master)] a little short on the free arm side, put your shoulder behind it next time, you may find that it helps your balance

[Master] Apprentice #8: No adjustments made.
Baron Thogood (Master) bows
[Baron Thogood (Master)] a good match
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Quellcon is avenged
Branwyn (Lisa) sighs
[Baron Thogood (Master)] We have triumphed
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (OK. I knod of like this guy now. I'm sad I judged him so harshly. I guess maybe he hated Black Cloaks guts.)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Congratulations, Baron.
Talwin (Michael-14198) Bows. Good Show
[Snezana (Spring)] Snezana casts a spell against : Cure Light Wounds: You're healed (-1d8) [1d8=5] -5 points.
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Your man shows promise
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am so sorry Apprentice. You fought bravely and well.
[Baron Thogood (Master)] (cured)

[JTom] Apprentice #8 no longer targets Baron Thogood .
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So are we finished with the trial?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Yes Countess
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you
[Baron Thogood (Master)] QUellcon's honor is avenged
Branwyn (Lisa) walks over to Apprentice
[Baron Thogood (Master)] We defeated Dragon Fen in fair combat
[Branwyn (Lisa)] For bravery in combat in defense of Dragon Fen, you will receive a reward.
Branwyn (Lisa) ignores Baron
Branwyn (Lisa) hands Apprentice a blue quartz gem
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is the color of the sky outside of the Mist
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] thank you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You can either keep it for its beauty or sell it. It is worth gold to you is you wish to sell it
[Master] quote
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What is your name?
[Baron Thogood (Master) (to JTom only)] you can make up anything you like
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (you just panicked him)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] :D
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh I'm sorry)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] (grins)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] (it is a wonderful solem moment, is very nice)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I'm getting it for him, one sec)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (pick one: Kalen Irtia Kalque Cerny Echem)
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] Kalen Echem
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well Kalen, you shall be remembered in Dragon Fen for your efforts to protect the estate. You come to me if you ever need anything.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I shall tell Pete your boss and Hoffman about your good service today
[Apprentice #8 (JTom)] ok
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] A man of many words, this apprentice.
Brer Necholas (TMO) smiles under his hood.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Sometimes that is best
Branwyn (Lisa) turns back to the Baron
[Branwyn (Lisa)] May we speak with Lady Emerald now?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Certainly
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you
Baron Thogood (Master) looks at Skarp
[Baron Thogood (Master)] You are a dwarf?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Rather handy with an axe I take it?
Baron Thogood (Master) moving along
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Countess .... I have heard everyone call you Branwyn the Mysterious for so long, which title would you prefer?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Countess Branwyn the Mysterious Branadarus for introductions. Branwyn to friends.
Baron Thogood (Master) bows
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Countess Branwyn the Mysterious then
Baron Thogood (Master) smiles
Branwyn (Lisa) nods
Baron Thogood (Master) looks over at Tiberius your pardon Prince but the Countess is the higher importance
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Laughs
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] You are telling me? or reminding me?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] My sister was married to a ..... magic user and I understand how it can be challenging
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not to me you are not
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Branwyn my love, he thinks you are challenging
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I hope so
Lord Tiberius (Master) grins
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What fun would I be if I were not?
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] I was going to say he underestimates you
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] You do know
Lord Tiberius (Master) pauses and is sober,
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Never mind
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes?
Lord Tiberius (Master) shakes his head
[Baron Thogood (Master)] We will be there shortly
[Baron Thogood (Master)] did you need anything for your stay?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I do not believe we will be staying long. We must get back soon.
[Baron Thogood (Master)] we prepared rooms, with the unfornate chance that you woudl lose in combat and we could be hosts for your visit
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Lady Emerald will be glad to host you for dinner
[Baron Thogood (Master)] My mother in law is a good host
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at the group for reactions
[Baron Thogood (Master)] She is more inclined to have you visit her than for her to come to the wilds of Dragon Fen
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles "She might enjoy it"
Brer Necholas (TMO) follows at the side, trying to remember if he's ever been here before, and if so, how long it's been.
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (ooc note: he hasn't)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If we had won the combat we would not have been invited to stay?
[Baron Thogood (Master)] You would have been an invading army and woudl have laid waste to where you wished
[Snezana (Spring)] well in theory
[Snezana (Spring)] in practice we might have asked for some supper :-)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Uh. So, I was partially right? I guess if Bran wanted the land would have been absorbed)
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Lady Emerald is a gracious winner
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Thankfully she hates politics right Lisa? :) )
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And we appreiciate that Baron
[Baron Thogood (Master)] (LOL no michael, you got exactly what you would get just with QUellcon saving face, Branwyn does not get a second estate because some apprentice manages to hit a knight)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (this way they don't have the official right to carry a grudge)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Hey, he was teh one who said shew ould have been an invading force. Just saying. Usually when someone invades, someone loses som important stuff. )
Baron Thogood (Master) leads the group to the manor house
[Baron Thogood (Master)] Lady Emerald will see you soon
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you
[Baron Thogood (Master)] please make your selves comfortable
Branwyn (Lisa) turns and cantrips to clean up a little from the road dust
Lady Emerald (Master) comes out with a young boy pushing her wheelchair
Branwyn (Lisa) mutters "That was quick"
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Hello Countess Branwyn the Mysterious Branadarus,
Branwyn (Lisa) turns back again
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Lady Emerald
[Lady Emerald (Master)] The latest to attempt to claim The Wastes
Lady Emerald (Master) smiles
[Lady Emerald (Master)] you will pardon me if I do not get up
Lady Emerald (Master) looks at the rest of the group
[Lady Emerald (Master)] You may bow now
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not at all. I am sorry for the reason for our visit and for not being able to give proper notice
Brer Necholas (TMO) bows low to her. "Pardon."
Skarphedin (Ryan) mutters into his beard. "Among dwarves, one of these two would have drawn a blade by now."
Snezana (Spring) curtsies
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Did she say Bow?)
[Lady Emerald (Master)] (yes clearly)
[Kaeln Echem (JTom)] /me bows
[Snezana (Spring)] (apparently we missed a point of etiqutte)
Howard Plum (Lisa) bows deeply
Talwin (Michael-14198) Grunts. But after seeing Breer and Snezana finally bows a short bow
Skarphedin (Ryan) glances around in bewildernment, then bobs his head like a bird.
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Very well
[Lady Emerald (Master)] I know the chair throws people off
[Lady Emerald (Master)] I am not so old that I have forgotten my manners
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am sorry. We are all a bit road weary
[Lady Emerald (Master)] It is very understandable
[Lady Emerald (Master)] so I hear that you killed my son in law
[Lady Emerald (Master)] did you have to do that?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He left no other choice. I was hoping to speak with him but he sent wights and undead at us and he left any attempts at conversation out of the question
[Lady Emerald (Master)] OH there is always a choice
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That he died the way he did was not how I wished it
[Lady Emerald (Master)] He was stubborn
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is true. There was a choice.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And if I arrive at home and find that my son has been kidnapped or killed because of your son in law, I shall have to make yet another choice
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I chose to return Charles' body to his family first before I ensured my son's safety
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Everything is a choice
[Lady Emerald (Master)] That is the honorable thing to do
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I felt it was right
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Charles was a troubled young man I know
Lady Emerald (Master) looks at Brer
Brer Necholas (TMO) shifts slightly in his armor.
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Can you say you did not make mistakes in your youth?
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Even one like you?
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I've made more mistakes than probably anyone else here.
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] And I've paid for them.
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Good that makes you interesting
Lady Emerald (Master) looks at Branwyn, I know you are interesting too
[Lady Emerald (Master)] If our young Queen did not already have her hooks in you I would have make you a Court Mage here
[Lady Emerald (Master)] lack of good talent
[Lady Emerald (Master)] is what drove Charles
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Well no one can say he wasn't talented.
Branwyn (Lisa) frowns "He had incredible talent as a mage. He used it for evil purposes though"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes Michael!)
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Well evil can be used for a purpose
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Talent wasted is one of the worst sins.
[Lady Emerald (Master)] take a man who likes to see blood, make him into a warrior and send him off to battle
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (But not without consequence)
[Lady Emerald (Master)] take a man who wants to follow and give him to the church
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (True, if it weren't for evil, we adventurers would have to turn for the peasantry to provide our xp farms)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (What you talking about? I'l start up the Las Vegas of this world!)
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Let a woman feel her power.... and she will sieze the throne
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (You'd kill the gamblers?)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Ooh, double entendre there)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Oh, no. I'd gain experience by forming a mafia and setting up a Las Vegas style ring. TMO would be the guildmaster, and I'd be Casino Operations)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Lisa could be the hitman)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But if those people you speak of are evil, the effects ripple throughout and nothing good comes from their talent. Only destruction and chaos
Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He disrupted trade on multiple estates. He sent his undead onto mine which in turn killed innocents.
[Lady Emerald (Master)] The strong survive, navigate the currents and come out in the end of the storm stronger
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Lisa is.... Joana Wick)
Lady Emerald (Master) nods
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (I'd pay to watch that.)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (LOL Ryan)
[Lady Emerald (Master)] That is a fault of his
[Lady Emerald (Master)] he chose an opponent he could not match
Skarphedin (Ryan) grumbles. "Should he have stuck to picking on those who couldn't fight back?"
[Lady Emerald (Master)] If you had been my Court Mage the entire Wastes would be calm now
[Lady Emerald (Master)] the choices in life
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do you know the cause of this obssesion? I did not understand why he seemed to personally hate me so. I have done nothing to hurt your family or your estate
[Lady Emerald (Master)] He was at the Coronation
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have brought his journal back to you. It is filled with anger
[Lady Emerald (Master)] He saw your rewards
[Lady Emerald (Master)] He felt it should be his
[Lady Emerald (Master)] He did not have the temperment
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Toybin would have had him thrown in the dungeon within a month
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs "Sir Toybin is not enamored of many mages. Myself included"
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Sorry, I have a sprogling that refuses to go to bed. I am going to have to call it a night.)
[Lady Emerald (Master)] The Queen is with you though
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But when I was in Dryads Lair, he could have served the Queen in the war. Again, it all comes down to choices
[Lady Emerald (Master)] (night Ryan, thank you very much for hanging out with us, see you next week)
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Sorry about this. Thanks for the session. Always fun spending time with you all.)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Goodnight Ryan!)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Night Ryan!
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Oh he did serve
Ryan has left the game on Fri Sep 18 22:44:45 EDT 2020
[Lady Emerald (Master)] We fought for the Queen
[Lady Emerald (Master)] we kept the Wastes clear
[Lady Emerald (Master)] the Doeskins never had a chance to claim a foothold
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And I am certain the Queen was grateful and is
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Our young Queen was suitably grateful when she visted earlier this year
[Lady Emerald (Master)] She granted Charles an additional 10 men at arms
[Lady Emerald (Master)] he was never able to recruit them
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (That's not bad is it?)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Oh)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I hope that the family may still do that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] There are a few things I wanted to discuss.
Lady Emerald (Master) nods,
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Skull Church has been ... problematic since I have lived in this area.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Your son in law is not the first necromancer who resided there.
[Lady Emerald (Master)] He said it was a proud tradition
Brer Necholas (TMO) shifts his stance again.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The Greeks had a turn and tried to create fire elementals and desecrate the church
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It seems whenever it is left alone it becomes inhabited by evil that spreads across the area
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will stop the cycle
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Those that lead grow magic, those that follow worship
[Lady Emerald (Master)] That church has been there longer than I have been alive.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will be taking the church and maintaining it for the Kipytutto priests
[Lady Emerald (Master)] longer than any of us have been alive
Lady Emerald (Master) squints at the dwarf
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Maybe
Lady Emerald (Master) raises an eyebrow at 'taking the church"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It must be preserved and it must become a a place of good again.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will not allow it to become a den of undead again
[Lady Emerald (Master)] You want to take land where my people have mined for generations?
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Yes)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I want the church, yes. I have no interest in intruding upon your mining operations or hindering your economy.
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Where do you propose we shoudl reach an agreement?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (another fight between Apprentice Kalen and Baron Thogood?)
[Lady Emerald (Master)] (was meaning a choice of where the border should be)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (ok - was just going to ask to make sure I understood)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I think if you have maps of the area we can reach an agreement of where we may not intrude and where we can make sure that the church is protected
[Lady Emerald (Master) (to TMO only)] the battle field was the old boundry....
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I assume you have little interest in the land between the church and Dragon Fen and we have no interest in any land north of Skull Church towards Quellcon
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm...I believe the battle site we walked through was the old boundary. I've no idea where the mines are today, if they've moved any.
[JTom] im going to get off for tonight bye
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] Night boyo. Be on again soon :)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (go clean your room!)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so nice to see you JTom! Goodnight!)
JTom has left the game on Fri Sep 18 22:59:23 EDT 2020
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Perhaps we could say that the Battle of Hastilton Hill will be the boundry and that Dragon Fen will contract with us for 6 large wagonloads of iron ore a year paid at market value
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That seems fair
[Lady Emerald (Master)] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vST6hVRj2A
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If you will put that in writing, I would sign such an agreement
Lady Emerald (Master) gestures to a page
[Lady Emerald (Master)] I will have it delivered to you within the week
[Lady Emerald (Master)] the agreement, it will take longer for the ore
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You must understand that my interest is not in expansion of my estate as much as protecting the people of mine
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Good
[Lady Emerald (Master)] you can start by protecting the travelers along the road
[Lady Emerald (Master)] Farmers Turn needs to be maintained south of Quellcon
[Lady Emerald (Master)] haunted villages
[Lady Emerald (Master)] ruffians
[Lady Emerald (Master)] this will simply not do
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I agree
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Is this on our portion? I feel she is squeezing us for everything she can unless I just don't understand the exact nature of the agreement.)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Framers Turn would be on our side)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (We can discuss online. Probably a complicated question)
[Talwin (Michael-14198)] (Thank you Lisa.)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and if we want to expand and trade yes there will be cleanup necessary)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (another estate for you guys to plan and build!)
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (yay!)
[Craniate Wastes (Master)] There you go Michael
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (in the desolate wastes ...)
[Master] Farmers Turn is on the western edge of that map
[Master] you are just north off the map right now Skull Church etc is in the upper left side
[Master] that is on the website too
Lisa is receiving the map Craniate Wastes ...
Lisa has received the map Craniate Wastes .
[Master] Distance is deceiving, the scale is correct
[Master] I think that was a sucessfull negociation?
[Master] unless you had other things?
[Lisa] I think so
[Lisa] Just wanted to make sure that was discussed before Hoffman started building
[Lisa] no surprises
[Lisa] what we're going to do with 6 wagon loads of iron ore I have no idea
[Master] Overall, Quellcon got to keep the border they wanted, and you are going to give them gold for iron every year
[Master] open a blacksmith
[Lisa] we become arms dealers
[Master] and a weaponsmith
[Master] grins
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (learn how to make iron golems)
[Master] LOL
[Spring] portcullis palace!
[Master] did you want to stay the night or go back to the church for the night?
[Spring] where every gate is great
[Spring] and every grate is great too i guess
[Lisa] lol Spring
[Lisa] if we are clicking off - we can do either
[Master] quote for puns
[Master] your choice Lisa
[Master] it will be morning then walk or walk them morning
[Lisa] would be rude to reject hospitality
[Master] OK
[Lisa] they invited us and didn't want to kill us so dinner would be good
[Master] Time of Day: 02:35 PM. Day 14 Be ___ tre, Din {Mid Spring} 14th, 349 SKR.
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (nothing about being able to sleep in a real bed)
[Lisa] that too
[Master] and sleep there then walk back to the church
[Master] so you are all together again
[Lisa] ok
Lisa is receiving the map Church Ground Floor...
Lisa has received the map Church Ground Floor.
[Master] left on the list is .... The Moat
[Master] I guess we tackle that next week?
[Master] and then ... perhaps done?
[Lisa] unless you want Pete here with barrels of oil
[Lisa] Bran has a couple more fireballs
[Master] he was not tasked with getting them
[Lisa] yes we left without getting another conversation with him
[Lisa] I was going to ask him
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (ball of fire and roll it around the moat?)
[Master] restroom brb
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Lisa] don't know how to do that - fireballs whoosh out and then die out unless there are combustibles keeping it going
[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (there's a spell that does a rolling ball of fire. smaller and not as damaging as fireball, iirc)
[Lisa] I don't have that
[Lisa] only other little thing we can do tonight is open the trapped spell book
[Lisa] can try a dispel on the book or try the glass case again
[Lisa] Or we can unseen servant spring the book trap and just watch it happen
[TMO] Not got a lot of info to make an opinioin either way on those
[TMO] I suppose the dispels can just be a daily project until we get lucky
[TMO] wake up, cast dispel, go about your day, repeat
[Lisa] lol
[Lisa] doesn't hurt to try
[Spring] heh
[Lisa] the book trap is probably easier than the case trap
[Lisa] not black cloak's book
[Lisa] Spell Book – for a beginning Necromancer someone named The Wrath of Ulim the Greater
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Lisa] Spring - in the mood to dispel or want to see what the book trap does?
[TMO] you know the old saying: "Curiosity killed the caster"
[Lisa] Not yet it hasn't
[Lisa] :)
[Master] we can wait till next week, Spring will be in and hopefully others
[Master] lots of attempts
[Lisa] ok
[Master] no spells cast yet today
[Master] thank you all
[Lisa] tell Pete to bring us oil
[Master] chuckles
[Master] you can when you see him
[Lisa] Thank you
[Spring] sorry i zoned out again
[Lisa] Happy Birthday!
[TMO] it was that kind of night
[Spring] happy birthday :-)
[Spring] i'm off to bed
[TMO] ditto!
[Master] Thank you
[Lisa] Goodnight!
[Master] have a great night all
Spring has left the game on Fri Sep 18 23:26:18 EDT 2020

Lisa has left the game on Fri Sep 18 23:26:21 EDT 2020
