[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] And I am back.
[Master] How are you today Michael?
[mharm-05997] Good now that we are playing Been looking forward to this all week
[Master] very glad
[mharm-05997] One of the rare things I get to look forward to at the moment
[mharm-05997] Not whining, just kind of the way it is right now
[Master] fully understand
[mharm-05997] So what are you attempting to accomplish with XML and LUA
[mharm-05997] I won't touch LUA with a ten foot pole, but XML...
[Master] so it turns out that you write the definition files in XML
[mharm-05997] depends on how complicated they are
[Master] and LUA can be read as XML also
[mharm-05997] Ugh
[mharm-05997] It's old, and I don't like it
[Master] so we will see
[mharm-05997] Also, I cheat by using Visual Basic
[mharm-05997] Very robust auto checks
[Master] that is good, I should try that
[Master] I keep using notepad
[mharm-05997] Notepad ++?
[mharm-05997] Or uh, Notepad
[Master] just good old notepad
[mharm-05997] Oh boy
[Master] grins
[mharm-05997] So...What are you up to lately? I like to keep track, but haven't really checked out the library Facebook for awhile
[Master] I posted my first Creation Station Weekly Podcast today
[Master] recorded yesterday afternoon
[mharm-05997] Oh right! Link?
[Master] will go get a link
[mharm-05997] ty

[mharm-05997] You look so official in this
[Master] OK make sure you save again Carissa

[mharm-05997] Hello Lara/Ryan :)
[Master] and that is why I had to restart KLoOge
[mharm-05997] Pff, as if your ever wrong ;)
[Spring] hi Lara! hi Ryan!
[Master] grins
[Carissa] Hi Lara and Ryan!
[mharm-05997] TMO in tonight? Or later
Lara has left the game on Fri Dec 04 19:08:42 EST 2020
[mharm-05997] Oh no!
[Ryan] Hello, everyone!
[Master] he has not said anything so I am guessing yes
[Master] that is the link again to the Creation Station Weekly podcast
[Master] did our first episode yesterday
[mharm-05997] Go watch this guys. He covered the moon landing for China :)
[Spring] woo hoo!
[Master] I do want pointers advice etc. on making it better
[mharm-05997] Really cool. And they have a decent (Dynax?) mic, so you can clearly understand him
[mharm-05997] Bob it was fine
[mharm-05997] and Enjoyable
[Master] Thank you
[Master] I did all the editing on the fly while recording
[mharm-05997] Then you must have some practice, because it looked like you were doing a professional web conference
[mharm-05997] I've seen much worse trust me
[Master] so that the final version you see is what is live about 20 minutes or less after we wrap
[Master] and that link is the same for the rest of 2021
[mharm-05997] This is weekly?
[mharm-05997] right?
[Master] yeap every Thursday at 4 PM EST
[mharm-05997] Cool beans
[Master] There is a Monthly show too that starts in January
[mharm-05997] Named something else?
[mharm-05997] Or same
[Master] Creation Station Monthly
[Master] I try to be very creative in my names, grins
[mharm-05997] Very Original :)
[Spring] :-D
[Master] it was lucky to have the Arecibo footage come out a couple of hours before we recorded

[Master] there you go Lara
[Lara] my screens are all funky
[Spring] :-(
[Lara] hi folks
[mharm-05997] Hm. Split across multiple monitors?
[Carissa] Hello again! Since I don't know if you saw it earlier...
[Master] in true 2020 time warp fashion you have not been in since Oct 9th but only 3 days have passed
[mharm-05997] SHHH! Don’t say things like that bob
[mharm-05997] We are trying so hard
[Carissa] As I told Bob, it's like our last goblin encounter. Took one and half months of planning. Only one night passed in game...
[Spring] hehhehehe
[mharm-05997] Also I hope you are doing ok Lara.
[Lara] thanks
[mharm-05997] I'm sure you're good, but if you want someone to vent too or talk to, you got my email?
[Master] I will let Michael and Spring explain where things stand as of now
[mharm-05997] Oh boy
[Lara] ok
[mharm-05997] Where to start
[Master] and Valerie will not be in
[mharm-05997] Hm
[mharm-05997] OK
[Spring] well I guess we have a deal with the goblins.
[mharm-05997] That's the short version
[mharm-05997] And ... you are all caught up!
[mharm-05997] Congrats!
[Lara] heehee
[mharm-05997] Nah, we are also handling the moat situation
[Spring] per the usual for people in this world, he totally took it to mean whatever the heck he wanted it to mean instead of any actual terms
[mharm-05997] and we've done some ADMIN stuff on the road for example between ...oh my god. Dragons Fen and The protectorate?
[mharm-05997] How did I forget this?
[Lara] did we talk the goblins into filling the moat?
[mharm-05997] No
[mharm-05997] We are handling that so far
[Spring] no, BOB was completely insistent we do that
[Spring] so we're doing it
[mharm-05997] Killing all the slimes as we go
[Lara] ok. who is doing the work?
[Master] I was not insistent,
[Master] grins
[mharm-05997] Eh, I'm fine doing it so we don't have to rely on the Goblins
[Carissa] Timeline issues
[Spring] I may be interpreting that
[Master] it was that you have no one who speaks goblin
[mharm-05997] They are a handful enough
[mharm-05997] and...yes. I just didn’t want to say that...
[Master] so you had very short conversations THROUGH your gnome
[mharm-05997] We do have a gnome who is very good at short succinct sentences though
[Master] I will be quiet and everyone cover all the relevant bits
[Lara] lol. it's okay.
[mharm-05997] So that was cool
[Master] and then you can decide how to deal with the moat
[mharm-05997] He's a character that’s for sure...Get it!? Haha
[Master] using the goblins is always an option
[mharm-05997] Crack myself up
[Spring] okay, I misinterpreted that.
[Lara] I have a request
[mharm-05997] Go ahead
[Spring] but in any case, we helped with regime change
[Spring] our puppet is in charge and shouldn't be raiding aboveground
[Lara] can you just tell me what to do tonight? if I have to solve one more problem, even if it is in Dragon Fen, I might collapse
[Lara] I’ve been fixing problems for months now
[Lara] and I’m wiped. lol.
[Spring] gosh I know that feeling
[mharm-05997] You can just watch tonight if you want
[Spring] sorry that it's hitting you so hard
[mharm-05997] No biggie we can handle it
[Lara] it’s a terrible feeling, right @Spring?
[Spring] right
[mharm-05997] Maybe you can roll if we need it? But otherwise, I think you're fine
[Spring] I’m like, I’m not the omnipotent problem-solver, go away!
[Spring] let me just be a people!
[mharm-05997] Just get some uh, I don't know if you drink, but wine and chillax for tonight if you need
[mharm-05997] Anyways
[Spring] I’m also cranky because the dog won't stop licking his asterisk
[Spring] so I guess I gotta take him to the vet now
[mharm-05997] Goblins have been supplanted with a leader who...tolerates us
[mharm-05997] Jeeze spring. Sorry
[Lara] I would love to be engaged in something other than the year 2020...tell me what to do and I will do it.
[Spring] I’d be more sympathetic if he wasn't so freaking LOUD at it
[Lara] RFLMAO @Spring
[Lara] OMG---this is what I miss
[Spring] ok so anyway, we got that handled
[Ryan] (Sorry, we lost power yesterday and I am just wrapping up my shift.)
[mharm-05997] Maybe you could help translate if we need? Or you can help us with Moat stuff, or just thinking about other things...Bob what do you think Lara could help with? I don't want to force her to solve problems or anything. Mostly spring and I just kind of tell people what to do at the moment
[Lara] many people think that I am a control freak but they are way off base---I would love for someone else to take charge
[mharm-05997] OK. Well...we can do that
[Lara] yes, translate---moat stuff
[Spring] hear hear
[mharm-05997] Just le me know if I'm being a jerk or something. I don't want people thinking I'm barking orders
[Carissa] Control Freak = No one else is doing a damn thing, guess I have to do it. Again (at least for me)
[Spring] I bet the goblins don't have writing
[mharm-05997] Anyhoo
[Lara] THANK YOU!
[Lara] YES @CARISSA!
[Spring] oh I did think about the hams
[Carissa] lol completely understand, Lara
[Lara] ah...what a relief to be among kindred cyber spirits
[Spring] is eight hams a month really too much to pay for peace
[Carissa] Sometimes you just... have to take control. But you're good for tonight. Do what you need :)
[Lara] oh no, more maths?
[Spring] or I dunno, is two hams a week eight a month in that world? I dunno. anyway, maybe it's not really that much to pay
[Lara] well, I think Emerald is supposed to be mildly attractive
[Spring] all this thirty and fifty stuff, that's crap, but two
[Lara] how about I sit somewhere and look pretty?
[Spring] I mean eight
[Ryan] (Emeralds are great, but Sapphire is my jam)
[Spring] emerald could helpfully gesture at stuff
[Spring] when not translating
[Lara] (lol. I’m Pearl lady)
[mharm-05997] (make grunts at the appropriate parts of conversation :) )
[Lara] YES! pointing sounds awesome
[Carissa] We have a weird deal with the goblins who think they can tell us what to do. It's a short term solution so we can do moat then deal with them proper.
[Lara] YES! I can grunt in the most ladylike fashion
[Lara] Lady Goblin
[Lara] uh oh---giving Lady Gaga a run for her money
[mharm-05997] lol
[Lara] seriously---I think I'm changing my moniker
[Spring] apropos nothing - that poor radio telescope!
[mharm-05997] oh yeah that sucked!
[Spring] it had been so lovely and useful
[Lara] ah---so we've let the Goblins think they are in charge?
[Carissa] Unintentionally...
[Spring] well I think it's that the one we put in charge needs to hold his power
[Lara] okay. it wasn't a strategy then?
[Spring] so he tells his people that WE are HIS puppets
[Lara] haha. okay.
[Spring] and since we are supporting him, we may as well play along until they cross some line
[mharm-05997] Frankly, the one we put in charge seems smarter then most goblins. I don't really care what his people think until ...right Spring!
[Lara] tonight, I think I am puppetworthy
[mharm-05997] You said it before I could type
[Carissa] tl;dr We gave him a fancy horn that had WAY more meaning than we realized. Chief comes to challenge us. Chief fights Thistle (he chose who to fight). Chief dies. Dramana or whatever his name is suddenly things he's in charge of us.
[Spring] it's annoying and insulting, but as long as we don't have to look ta it all the time, maybe that's fine
[Lara] OMG! Way to go Thistle! lol
[Carissa] (correct if wrong) It goes Leader -> Chief -> King and now suddenly, because of this horn, that goblin thinks he can be king. He started with just wanting us to make him a leader...
[Spring] we needed to show them that even our youngest warrior could kick their chief's butt
[Lara] hm. do Goblins flirt? roflmao
[Spring] even though she's not a warrior
[Spring] oh it didn't occur to me that she's a girl besides and they are misogynist
[Carissa] lol but she fights better than I remembered since she rarely fights
[Spring] so that was a huge show of power
[Carissa] Ah true. So a girl needs to kick him down a few notches
[Lara] misogynists are easily manipulated because we know what to expect from them
[Spring] but because of this horn business, no it's possible we can get goblin peace a lot further afield than just here
[Spring] no = now
[Master] I am glad that people noticed he chose to pick on a girl
[mharm-05997] Yeah, look how that turned out
[Master] but also you might have noticed that Thistle used a dagger that did double damage when she stabbed the goblin with it
[Spring] hehehe
[Lara] okay. I’m all caught up then?! lol. did Thistle get hurt at all?
[Carissa] She has her tricks :)
[Master] it is now later in the morning
[Master] Time of Day: 09:04 AM. Day 4 Ced ___ de, Sow {Late Spring} 4th, 349 SKR.
[Carissa] She did get a scratch and she did get...something but we don't know what
[Master] Oh you did remember that?
[Carissa] Save vs Poison she failed. Could be poison, could be wasting disease, could be something along those lines
[Lara] ACK!
[Carissa] LOL you think I'd miss that? Remember I'm the one who had to tell TMO about HIS character's history? l(
[Carissa] * ;)
[mharm-05997] So...to the priests first would probably be helpful
[mharm-05997] oh my god that's right.
[mharm-05997] Points to Carissa
[mharm-05997] :)
[Carissa] Snee looked at her, but didn't have the right skills, I believe. I think we need Kenna
Lisa has joined the game on Fri Dec 04 19:36:31 EST 2020

Lisa has received the map Church Ground Floor.
[Master] Kenna is out in the Wastes helping look for a mine
[Carissa] Or... you know, keep an eye on Thistle and make sure she doesn't drop dead
[mharm-05997] The longer it works its way, the worse it can get
[Carissa] Now to be fair I don't remember WHAT Snee used, so we might have other options I haven't thought of as Kenna is off and away
[Master] *watches Thistle drop dead, OH I guess we should have healed her
[mharm-05997] I think it might be better to be proactive
[Carissa] Er...wait
[Carissa] We have that priest here. What's his face
[mharm-05997] Do we have any potions?
[mharm-05997] oh yeah
[Carissa] We ARE at the church
[Master] Welcome Lisa
[Carissa] Hi Lisa!
[mharm-05997] Hi Lisa!
[Lisa] Hello! :)
[Carissa] I haven't look at what was brought so maybe potions? Spring can tell us.,
[mharm-05997] I can pull it up real quick standby
[Spring] http://dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.ProtectorateSupplies
[mharm-05997] Potion of Health
[Carissa] I'm having three different convos right now for some reason so please, lol
[mharm-05997] (I bookmarked it because I got tired oflookingforit lol)
[mharm-05997] It it's magically based, we have protection from magic?
[mharm-05997] Potion of Vitality?
[Master] TMO is almost here
[mharm-05997] I got no idea if those three might help
[Carissa] Potion of Health would likely be the right one. We can bug what's his face is want, first
[Spring] I think I cast a healing on her but I doubt it helped
[mharm-05997] Yeah, I mean knowing the goblins, she probably got tetanus or something
[mharm-05997] You have your boosters Carissa?
[Carissa] Yeah I think you didn't have the right skill? Healing or something like that?
[Carissa] And then some!
[mharm-05997] (Wait Tetanus is the rusty nail disease right?)
[Carissa] Yesterday I had to discuss if I was up to date on my rabies after stabbing myself with a scalpel covered in brain...
[Spring] cure moderate wounds
[mharm-05997] (Well, rusty anything)
[Carissa] Soil, actually.
[Carissa] But yes
[mharm-05997] Jesus Christ Carissa
[Spring] oh no!
[mharm-05997] Holy shit
[mharm-05997] not cool
[Master] chuckle at Carissa, again one of my favorite scientists
[mharm-05997] Did you get the 10 inch needle to the gut?
[Lisa] makes for a great story though
[Carissa] Eh, my supervisor and I kind of joked about it. Since I stabbed myself around this time last year with a dirty needle.
[Carissa] At least it was sheep not cow so BSE isn't a concern.
[Lisa] you should stop doing that
[mharm-05997] This is funny? My sister is going for Medical Examiner and she gives me horror stories...
[Carissa] It's okay! He saved the report forms for next year ;)
[Spring] whew I was wondering that but didn't wanna ask
[mharm-05997] I mean, I'm glad you think it’s funny, but..uh
[Master] cool Michael, when does she get her sunglasses and Armani?
[Carissa] lol it's all good, gotta laugh at it
[mharm-05997] Oh hush bob
[mharm-05997] lol
[Spring] haha
[mharm-05997] She gots a few more years
[Carissa] and I have the safety nets I need so I should be okay
[mharm-05997] Did you know that we have a serious competition going on?
[mharm-05997] My family is infighting about who will get the Doctorate first
[mharm-05997] It's like
[mharm-05997] To physical blows serious
[Master] chuckles
[Spring] wow
[Master] excellent
[mharm-05997] BTW I'm winning
[mharm-05997] LOL
[Spring] and I thought it was crazy my two kids fight over who's a real sailor

[Ryan] TMO! Hello!
[Lisa] Hi TMO!
[Master] so pushing just a bit, Moat and Mine are the two key things to solve by the end of next week
[Spring] one completed training but not the enlistment, the other completed the enlistment but not training
[mharm-05997] Oh, we'll be the first to defend our sisters/brothers, but the second we get talking about stupid stuff, its' all out war
[mharm-05997] Right
[mharm-05997] Sorry bob
TMO drops into the world
[Master] so that we can get to Hourglass in January
Lisa splat
[TMO] ow
[mharm-05997] LOL. This isn't Dragon Age TMO
[mharm-05997] You don't just glitch into the game
[Spring] hi TMO!
[Carissa] Hi TMO!
[TMO] Hello friends!
[Lara] hi
[Master] TMO and Lisa there is a link up there in the chat to the podcast we released yesterday from the library
[Lisa] k
[Master] and also to reiterate
[Master] so pushing just a bit, Moat and Mine are the two key things to solve by the end of next week
[Master] so that we can get to Hourglass in January
[Lisa] on photography
[Master] no to Lisa this is the Weekly
[Master] the Photography one will be end of January
[Master] the Weekly is only 15 minutes or so
[TMO] grabbed it
[mharm-05997] So, why don't we do the weekly rolls for the moat first, and then discuss the mine since we haven’t touched that for so long
[Lisa] I would recommend taking off or marking on the page when you use potions - the tage will get lost in history whenever the page is updated
[Lisa] You might actually get some loot one of these days :D
[Master] before you just roll Michael not to PLAN but to make sure you have who you want doing what you want with the Moat
[Ryan] (Sorry, I was wrapping up work and it picked up a bit more than I anticipated.)
[Master] as if you take weeks to do it
[Master] you will zoom past the Mining group
[TMO] I did something different with potions so that when I used it it was on my dice panel
[TMO] and it would show up in chat
[mharm-05997] I'm sorry bob. I was kind of thinking we would do the exact same thing as last time. Do we just add more characters to help?
[Spring] oh did we use the potion?
[mharm-05997] I apologize, I'm not trying to be slow, but I'm a tad confused. Should we work on the mining stuff first?
[Master] you did not actually clear anything Michael other than the first 100 feet in front of the church
[Master] you have two threads to work on Moat and Mine
[Lisa] humanoid control one?
[TMO] Brer Necholas casts a spell against : Elixir of Madness: drinks an Elixir of Madness
[mharm-05997] Hm.
[Master] grins
[Carissa] So normal Friday drink?
[Lisa] and lost the horn unless Talwin wants to arm wrestle Drarm for it to get it back
[Spring] yes I took humanoid control off as soon as we used it
[mharm-05997] So, if we add more players, we fill int he moat faster? Is this correct?
[Master] no to Michael
[Lisa] add more players?
[Master] first decide what you want to do, then decide who you want to do it
[Lara] I thought the horn wasn't valuable?
[Master] THEN we add up the character levels if that is the plan and go forward
[mharm-05997] All in Favor of starting with the Moat or Mine. Vote now please?
[Spring] moat
[Master] to humans yes Lara to Goblins ....
[Ryan] Moat
[mharm-05997] moat
[Spring] we are most behind on moat
[Lara] mmmmmmoooooaaaaaaaaaatttttttttt
[Master] and Lisa can confirm the Horn was found here under Skull Church years ago
[Master] and has been missing from the Goblin Lore for a while
[Carissa] That might have been good to know earlier...
[mharm-05997] This is an anarchistic commune. You can't just say your king because some watery tart threw a sword at you! We must go with a 2/3 Majority...
[Spring] oh yeah I didn't know that
[Master] YES to Michael
[Lisa] (oh sorry spring was confused with the spell you cast almost matching one of the potions - ignore me)
[Spring] we could have had the goblin tribes fight over who gets it
[Spring] that would be bad, but we could
[Lisa] yes we found the horn in the caverns under the church after a fight with some
[Spring] lol Michael
[mharm-05997] :)
[mharm-05997] So, TMO, Moat or mine?
[mharm-05997] Although I think we have a majority
[TMO] Mmmmmm....
[mharm-05997] TMO says moat guys! Did you hear? I heard
[TMO] ......mmmmmAJORITY
[mharm-05997] oh no
[Spring] hahahaha
[mharm-05997] Am I forgetting anyone?
[mharm-05997] Carissa did you voat?
[mharm-05997] lol
[mharm-05997] Vote
[Lara] voat...moat
[mharm-05997] cool
[TMO] there's yer campaign slogan
[mharm-05997] Now let's assign Characters
[mharm-05997] YES to TMO
[mharm-05997] Talwin will be there.
[mharm-05997] Who else wants to donate labor
[Carissa] Uhhhhhhh....mmm.....
[TMO] I thought character assignment was done already? did I miss a story advancement?
[Carissa] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Tails
[Carissa] Mine apparently
[Spring] it was done for the last 100 feet. I guess we have to do it again for the next
[Carissa] Sorry that was my vote. Not that it matters.
[mharm-05997] (Bob wanted us to assign Characters so I am doing that. I don't think it's a problem though)
[Spring] it's going to be fewer because some of us are out looking for a mine
[Master] If you want to only use the characters? or are you recruiting.... other nearby bodies
[mharm-05997] (Are you ok with Moat Carissa? Would you like to get a jump start on the mine?)
[mharm-05997] Honestly bob. I have no idea how to approach them
[Spring] oh! are we now able to hire goblins!
[TMO] brute force
[mharm-05997] (We don't have enough money)
[mharm-05997] (Or Hams)
[Carissa] (lol yes, I just wanted to get a vote in)
[Master] by the way for Spring, 3 weeks per month 2 hams per week
[Spring] oh so that's only 6 hams a week
[Spring] er month
[mharm-05997] I have altered the deal. Pray I do not alter it again
[Carissa] Lara is here. If we tell her what to say to goblins, we have two translators
[Spring] I haven't even started drinking yet!
[mharm-05997] (We can dip into food stores, but we'd need to send a message off to Dragon's fen with an explanation for Bran)
[mharm-05997] (I think that would be appropriate)
[mharm-05997] (Thoughts?)
[Spring] see it could be helpful for them to know that food-paying odd jobs are available if they keep the peace
[Carissa] Drag a butcher and a hunter here to start killing those feral pigs for hams
[mharm-05997] (I agree. We could also attempt to pay a small amount. )
[Spring] but if the relationship sours, we could just take our hams and go home
[Carissa] What happens if we don't bring them the hams?
[Spring] not that we would, but they don't know that
[mharm-05997] (Right Carissa. I eventually hope that we can start raising them here because they are hardy and can survive out here)
[Carissa] Will they come up to us asking for them?
[Carissa] They're already out here. Trust me, you probably don't want to raise them. Already enough around.
[mharm-05997] Then yeah, Hunters and Butchers should be on our requisition list
[TMO] bring in Shur or others as hunters
[mharm-05997] (Do we have a requisition list on the Site? Might not be a bad idea to have a wish list)
[TMO] brb
[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.
[Carissa] We have many NPC slots not taken up.
[Carissa] Easy enough to just make one like we have for other things needed. Just give them however much time to get here.
[mharm-05997] So, how about this. Why don't we kill a pig or two, and bring them to the cave and ask if they would be willing to help fill it in for the carcasses
[Lara] (ah, there are slots for NPCs?)
[Master] not really Lara
[mharm-05997] Negotiate amount of foot to be filled in for each pig?
[Master] they are just coming up with the people who they want to live in Hourglass once it is finished
[mharm-05997] (Apparently they die a lot when dealing with the moat, so more for the others that survive)
[Master] similar to the zero level people you played during the Birthday Game
[Spring] hm, I’m averse to bringing pigs after the last time
[Carissa] No no. We don't bring them food again. They'll just take it.
[Spring] but if we need to prove we have a pig carcass, we could bring a hoof or a head or something
[mharm-05997] Yes
[Carissa] We bring Lara and her wand and tell them.
[Carissa] In return of one week of 3 hams.
[Carissa] Or something
[mharm-05997] We just solved one problem, I don't want to force them unless we have to. They might try to fight us again
[Master] WOW Lara has a wand? is that battery operated or? wink
[Spring] ha!
[Lara] which one?
[Master] grins
[Lara] two with batteries, one without. ROFLMAO.
[Master] LOL
[Master] so Michael and Spring need to make the choice and then we move forward
[Master] 1 - do you use Goblins to work on the moat?
[mharm-05997] Why not both?
[mharm-05997] just in separate areas
[Lara] seriously though...I thought I didn't know how to use This Wand
[Master] keeping it simple Michael
[Lara] did we go through the identify etc.?
[Master] Do you use Goblins to work on the moat?
[Carissa] You do. Branwyn found the word for it.
[Master] is a yes or no
[mharm-05997] I apologize I need to step away for a moment. An employee is calling me.
[Carissa] You, as the player, can decide what the word/phrase
[mharm-05997] Sure, yes, go for it
[Lara] GREAT! @ Carissa
[mharm-05997] Spring can you chime in?
[Lara] tikitkitembonosarembo
[Spring] oh sorry thought I had
[Spring] I want goblins to work on the moat
[Master] OK
[Master] So
[Master] doing the moat in the abstract,
[Ryan] (Instead of goblins, would you suffice with goblins all dying, and then using necromancy to animate their corpses?)
[Carissa] lol @ Lara
[Master] and Laughs with Ryan
[Carissa] (after last week? I'm okay with that)
[Spring] I’d prefer to do both like Michael, but if we're keeping it simple, I prefer the goblins
[Spring] lol Ryan
[Master] So then that is the next question Spring
[Master] Goblins only or mix of Goblins and Characters
[Master] again that is Spring and Michael
[Master] with Michael AFK so Spring will rule on this one
[Spring] YOU WILL LOVE ME AND DESPAIR!!!
[Master] Awesome
[Ryan] Done
[Ryan] Now what, Spring?
[Master] warm smile
[Spring] just channeling an elf lady for a second
[Spring] mix of goblins and characters
[mharm-05997] still on phone, but don't treat the wand as your "Precious" I might get concerned
[Master] and so it is done
[Spring] we are gonna need characters around anyway to keep an eye on the goblins
[Lara] mmmmm....mmmmmmmmmm....mmyyy Precious
[Master] OK so now you need to plan a small bit for how Emerald and your magic items will influence the goblins to work and I will do the math on the construction side of things
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Carissa] Also don't forget the "main" goblin is still charmed by Snee
[Carissa] So between charm and threat of wand, it probably won't take much
[Lara] ooooo---you mean through magic?
[Lara] I have Persuade as well
[Carissa] Yeah Spring charmed him last Friday to make him more... agreeable.
[Lara] I mean Emerald has Persuade
[Carissa] And charm, the spell, will last at least a month before he can try to break it
[Lara] awesome
[Carissa] So the "wannabe king" goblin is charmed. We may or may not have to persuade others.
[Lara] got it
[Carissa] Or somehow make a deal where he still gets to pretend he's tough and wasn't originally just the goblin Thistle lassoed when everyone attacked us.
[Master] Snee cannot speak Goblin, so the charm is limited as she cannot communicate what she wants them to do
[Lara] ok
[Lara] Tell me what to say and when :-)
[Spring] yeah it was pretty much a matter of getting a nice temperament
[Carissa] Ahh but she can speak tongues IF it's another day
[Spring] oh actually she does have a L4 available
[Spring] so she could do tongues
[Lara] got it
[Spring] cast tongues
[Spring] the other thing sounded like making out
[Carissa] lmao
[Spring] so it's the same day
[Lisa] he's charmed but he hasn't been commanded to do anything, right?
[Spring] no, and he was told he was charmed so he wouldn't feel deceived later
[Spring] he was told it was just for safety
[mharm-05997] OK. I do apologize. Someone apparently paid a "Bonus" because he might have forgotten to take out Social Security, Federal and State Taxes, etc.
[mharm-05997]
[mharm-05997] Def. Not Me
[Spring] whee
[mharm-05997] Anyhoo. I'm caught up
[Lisa] so if Emerald teached Snee a command in goblin, Snee could use it to work under the charm?
[Lisa] taught
[Lisa] teached? sheesh
[mharm-05997] So, Talwin can escort if you would like. Spells gotta be left up to you guys though
[Spring] oh for like without tongues
[Lara] teached works...! we know what you meant and intention is 80% of anything
[Spring] :-)
[Spring] I dunno how teaching just one thing works in this world
[Lisa] whichever is best - seems a shame to waste a good charm spell if he won't dance for you if you ask
[mharm-05997] Snort
[Lisa] and thanks Lara! :)
[Spring] I’ll use tongues to explain the work arrangement, and then for the actual working, emerald can do the communicating
[Lisa] about the dancing
[Lara] Dance For Me, Dance For me uh-oh...move for me, move for me, move for me
[mharm-05997] Song name?
[Lara] Dance Monkey!!
[Spring] that's the one
[Carissa] By the Tones...or something
[mharm-05997] TY
[Lara] Tones and I
[Spring] I been dancing like a monkey my whole life
[Carissa] I almost said the Tone and Me. So close.
[mharm-05997] I'm uh, not sure what to think of this disturbing music video...
[mharm-05997] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0hyYWKXF0Q
[Spring] wait, what? work is pinging me ....
[Carissa] (brb)
[Carissa] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] Go answer spring
[mharm-05997] So...what now?
[Ryan] I believe we were watching the monkeys dance
[mharm-05997] Besides that. HAHA!
[mharm-05997] This video is out of this world
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] Lara has a music video for you bob...
[Lara] omg. that video is freaky.
[Master] So to fill in the moat with only the characters will take far too long to even contemplate
[mharm-05997] Anyhoo, Bob I think we agree on utilizing tongues to explain, and then Emerald will help translate more complicated stuff.
[mharm-05997] We did agree on Goblins
[Master] I will offer that Black Cloak had the goblins dig the moat in only 6 weeks
[mharm-05997] Yeah, and how many died in the process?
[mharm-05997] I mean
[Master] at the expense of 1/3 of the goblins dying
[mharm-05997] Not that we care
[mharm-05997] but
[mharm-05997] I still feel like it's a war crime of some sort
[Spring] ok I can't find who pinged me or why, stupid slack
[Master] IF you work ALL of the working Goblins including Snee insisting that females do some of the work
[Spring] hopefully if they actually need me, they call
[mharm-05997] (Hope so :) )
[mharm-05997] So we are explaining, using the wand, and then...
[Master] I am going to say it will take 12 weeks to fill in the moat, eliminate all the black puddings and declare that the area is safe
[mharm-05997] (still think we should pay something but I'll deal
[mharm-05997] )
[Ryan] Pay in steel
[mharm-05997] Blood and Fire
[Ryan] 6 inches per goblin should suffice
[mharm-05997] or Winter is coming...or something something
[Master] That is everyone working double time
[Lara] 12 weeks...do they have to be supervised?
[Spring] I hope we are paying in uncured boar carcasses
[Master] you will be working along side of them
[mharm-05997] (I think they'll have taskmasters since their group is pretty large bob?)
[Master] IF you only want the goblins to do it
[mharm-05997] (My character will be helping)
[Master] then I would subtract your part from the calculations
[Spring] I like having as many of us there as possible to help keep things civil
[Master] I currently have it with Emerald and Ghietjer doing translations and communicating with Snee renewing her Charm spell twice
[Lara] ok @ Spring
[Spring] and if we are there we may as well pitch in
[Spring] get it done faster
[Master] OK
[Master] so
[Master] if that is acceptable to Spring and Michael
[Spring] aye for me
[mharm-05997] (I can live. However I still think giving pig carcasses would be a good gesture)
[mharm-05997] (But I will live)
[Master] by the way Lara Spring and Michael's characters are the ones in charge so I am having the two of them make more decisions and take charge of things
[Master] you can do that also Michael
[Lara] perfect
[mharm-05997] We'll just give it at the end of every shift
[Master] Ok AFK as I update the timeline
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] that way they aren' t fighting over the stupid pig while working
[Spring] I like it
[mharm-05997] (In fact, after the first couple of shifts, more workers might show up for food?)
[Spring] I definitely like it
[mharm-05997] (We should plan ahead for extra mouths to feed after the first couple of days then to account for it)
[mharm-05997] (TMO?)
[mharm-05997] (I don't suppose your character can help with hunting until we get a professional hunter out here?)
[mharm-05997] (Would you mind? Or save your characters for alternative stuff?)
[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.
[TMO] sry, had to do some cookery stuffs
[mharm-05997] Speaking of cookery stuff
[mharm-05997] :)
[Spring] yeah I’m hungry too
[Lara] me too
[Lara] I had some chips and queso
[mharm-05997] I think we should dedicate some hunting staff for now, even if it extends the timeline. That way, we stay on good terms, feed them, and hopefully make good impressions
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[TMO] ok, you're asking if Brer can contribute to hunting? Is this instead of a different task, or as well as?
[Master] I need Michael to roll a d100 please
[mharm-05997] Bob can we discuss real quick?
[mharm-05997] Before rolling?
[Master] no
[Master] roll then discuss
[mharm-05997] ok?
[mharm-05997] <1d100>
[mharm-05997] [1d100]
[mharm-05997] sigh
[mharm-05997] you can tell
[Master] grins
[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] (1d100) [1d100=72] 72
[Master] OK
[mharm-05997] how long it's been
[Master] SO I will step away from here to use the restroom
[Spring] make sammich brb
[Master] first the site is updated on the end date
[Spring] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] So, quick 10 min break
[mharm-05997] ?
[Lara] yes
[Master] and 72 percent of the goblins died filling in the moat
[Master] brb
[mharm-05997] Holy shit
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] oh my god
[Lara] WHOA! that's a lot
[Lara] are they going to remember that?
[Lara] brb
[mharm-05997] What the actual fudge bob? I feel...terrible :(
[mharm-05997] Like, actually really bad
[TMO] they breed like flies
[mharm-05997] still though
[mharm-05997] I mean...
[mharm-05997] god damn
[mharm-05997] Man, it's like 2020 for the goblins too
[Lisa] that's one way to take care of the problem
[Lisa] Black Cloak would be proud
[Carissa] Ouch. I thought that was an encounter roll.
[mharm-05997] Gee, thanks Lisa
[Lisa] lol
[mharm-05997] That makes me feel particularly better
[TMO] twisting that knife just a little bit there, are ya Lisa? ;)
[mharm-05997] Why don't I just put his cloak on too?
[Carissa] She held back on the salt at least ;)
[Lisa] sorry
[mharm-05997] NP Lisa. Just giving you a hard time
[mharm-05997] :)
[mharm-05997] (So, Ryan or Tmo, Cyberpunk 2077?)
[TMO (to GM only)] Character sheet for Brer Necholas modified:
[TMO] Brer Necholas: Tailoring check: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 20!!
[TMO] Brer Necholas: Tailoring check: (d20) [1d20=17] 17 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 20!!
[Lisa] remember goblins are evil annoying creatures that have tried to kill you every time they have seen you
[mharm-05997] (Wow. Good tailor over here)
TMO fits the cloak to Talwin
[mharm-05997] Oh wow.
[Ryan] I'm still trying to deal with Cyberpunk 2020.
[mharm-05997] LOLOL
[TMO] (I lied - just made that skill up)
[mharm-05997] Oh thank god
[mharm-05997] That was the salt or lemon juice to Lisa’s knife ;)
[TMO] ah, but you can have TEQUILA with those
[mharm-05997] And you are right Lisa, but it's just kind of hard for me personally you know?
[mharm-05997] hehe
[mharm-05997] Even people I hate in real life, I have a hard time staying mad at for long
[TMO] negatory on Cyberpunk 2077
[Lisa] I know. But it was a workers comp thing - not like you bombed them
[mharm-05997] Oh, yeah, forgot to deduct workers comp too. Man he made out like a bandit this pay check
[mharm-05997] Thanks for that reminder too Lisa
[mharm-05997] :)
[mharm-05997] Man, I must have been high or something writing out all their checks
[mharm-05997] I give year end bonuses too, so they must be happy this year
[Lara] back
[Lara] back
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] OK so 4 months later the moat is completed filled in, all the black puddings are eliminated
[mharm-05997] And apparently I'm a mass murderer
[Master] you did try to help work along the way
[Lisa] lol
[Master] but you also learned what Goblins are like
[mharm-05997] No OSHA?
[Lisa] the moat killed them - not you Michael
[mharm-05997] I know. Just yeah :) I'll get over it promise
[Ryan] (That's what Skarphedin also says. My axe killed the goblins, not me.)
[TMO] And now the moat shall kill no more
[Lara] okay then.
[Spring] I am back at the keyboard.
[Spring] sorry for delay
[Master] they brought out females who were never used to being put to work like this and many died, the Goblins brought out their slaves and most of those died, and over 50 percent of the male goblins died also leaving the Leader and only 40 male goblins left for the tribe other than the females and young. Every slave died during construction.
[mharm-05997] ...
[Spring] oh man
[mharm-05997] is this supposed to be helping?
[Spring] how could we have prevented that?
[Master] It is what happened
[Master] no
[Master] You could not prevent the Goblins from being Goblins in the abstract
[mharm-05997] (well, technically I could have rolled a one?)
[Spring] oh this is a "life is cheap, get over it" situation
[TMO] goblin life, to be specific
[Spring] there have been times
[Master] from the Goblin point of view yes to Spring
[mharm-05997] hehe
[Spring] sigh
[mharm-05997] At least we paid them with food?
[mharm-05997] I guess
[mharm-05997] Maybe helped to foster better relations I guess
[Master] BUT it does show you both How Goblin society works and also how you can try to make changes
[Master] for example you never asked about what slaves they had
[Spring] the good news is fewer goblins, less attacks
[mharm-05997] Yeah, put them to work in the mines and they will all die
[Master] even after seeing Emerald chained etc.
[TMO] for a little while
[mharm-05997] True
[Master] but now you can fully understand the Goblin page and what is there
[mharm-05997] Can we get a rough population of slave races?
[mharm-05997] Or is that on the site
[mharm-05997] I am curious to see who they were able to enslave
[Master] I do want to give you a bit to think and react and come to some conclusions and begin to move forward here at the church
[Master] then we will jump to the Mines for the rest of tonight and next week
[Master] They had 8 Gnomes and 1 halfling and 6 humans
[Lisa] so with lesser numbers they only need 1 ham per week?
[mharm-05997] (I don't think it works that way does it?)
[Master] You decide how it works
[Carissa] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] (I mean, I hate it, but we did agree to those terms)
[Lara] whew
[Lisa] did you?
[mharm-05997] I did
[Spring] and for 40 goblins ...
[mharm-05997] yeah
[mharm-05997] maybe their arteries will get clogged with all that pig fat
[Spring] 40 males and an unknown number of women and children
[Master] wry grin I know what Lisa is asking
[Master] did YOU agree to those terms?
[Master] Or did the goblins dictate those terms to you?
[Spring] oh we actually did not
[Ryan] (Bright side, the goblins now have enough food to feed themselves for quite some time)
[Spring] it was a tossed-off comment as they were leaving
[mharm-05997] When they came up with those terms, we did not argue. Thus, we gave tacit approval
[mharm-05997] I am willing to attempt to renegotiate though
[mharm-05997] Also, were there any Shamans, Worgs, or Bugbears bob?
[Master] zero Bugbears they are only outside of Drillian
[Master] Shamans you have no idea and no to Worgs
[mharm-05997] Ok, so this page does not necessarily fully apply in some circumstance yes?
[Lisa] bugbears wouldn't fit in the little caverns
[mharm-05997] (We fit in just fine)
[mharm-05997] (That tunnel was massive)
[Lisa] you were in the big chamber you did not go further
[mharm-05997] (Although, I agree Lisa, maybe the smaller feeder tunnels not too much)
[mharm-05997] (True)
[Lisa] they change as you wind around
[mharm-05997] The whole area is honeycombed with those damned tunnels
[Lisa] but I digress
[Lara] honeycomb
[Master] good catch Michael,..... why would there be such tall caverns for goblins?
[Lara] now I want cereal
[mharm-05997] They have a Cave Troll
[mharm-05997] :)
[Master] OR
[Lisa] they were ...
[Master] read the history of the Wastes page and or Skull Church for a very big clue
[Lisa] someone else's caverns first
[Master] BINGO
[Lisa] 10 xp
[TMO] MINE
[mharm-05997] lol
[Lisa] :)
[Master] Grins
[mharm-05997] 10 Points to Gryffindor
[mharm-05997] I mangled that spelling, but you get the idea
[mharm-05997] So, we'll have to figure that out at a later time
[mharm-05997] So, to the mines?
[Master] Branwyn XP award: 10. Next level in 147640.
[mharm-05997] lol
[mharm-05997] You’re so close Lisa!
[mharm-05997] Keep at it!
[Lara] heehee
[Lisa] lol
[Spring] heh
[mharm-05997] Hey, quick question bob
[Master] anything
[mharm-05997] Did they retrieve armor, or any carried items from the dead? Or did they just like, leave them
[mharm-05997] to be buried?
[mharm-05997] Cause, we could reuse the leather despite how smelly it might be...
[Master] I am saying that they just died, black puddings devoured them, they drowned in the construction, heart attack, etc.
[Master] nothing to recover
[mharm-05997] So, no retrievable raw materials
[mharm-05997] Ok
[mharm-05997] TY
[Spring] sigh
[mharm-05997] What’s wrong spring?
[Spring] oh I just don't like a lot of death. but it cant be helped
[Spring] so to the mine crew?
[mharm-05997] Yeah
[Lisa] wanting to loot your 72 dead shows progress in getting over their untimely passing
[Master] Talwin XP award: 2000. Next level in 72165.
[Master] Thistle XP award: 1000. Next level in 1018.
[Master] Ghietjer XP award: 1000. Next level in 0.
[Master] Kaeln XP award: 1000. Next level in 0.
[Master] Griff (dog) XP award: 1000. Next level in 0.
[Master] Brer Necholas XP award: 2000. Next level in 1312.
[Master] Sundown XP award: 1000. Next level in 0.
[Master] Snezana XP award: 1000. Next level in 110566.
[mharm-05997] (Hey, I feel terrible, but this area needs resources right now)
[mharm-05997] (Really I do)
[Spring] lol
[Lisa] just teasing
[Spring] my thought was "nothing to remember them by"
[Master] Snezana XP award: 500. Next level in 110066.
[Master] Talwin XP award: 500. Next level in 71665.
[mharm-05997] (If they used any sort of tools, I wish we could at least recover them)
[Spring] yeah
[mharm-05997] (Probably not the best, or crude, but anything helps)
[Master] You can remember them by making choices in the future
[Master] Carissa are you ready enough?
[Master] I want to make sure the group has come to terms a bit with the end results of the Moat thread
[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Carissa] (no sorry I'm still multitasking)
[TMO] Aye - if we were Black Cloak we'd have them at our mercy right ow
[Master] OK so
[Carissa] (people can direct me for now if needed)
[Master] on the mining thread
[Master] you have Kenna played by Spring
[Master] you have Skarp played by Ryan
[Carissa] (err so we're mining now?)
[Ryan] (Hi ho!)
[Master] You have Johan who can be played by Lisa
[Master] you have Tiberius played by me
[Master] you have Potma played by TMO? who did that before?
[Master] you have Tiffress played by Carissa before but now can be played by?
[Carissa] Potma and Tiffress were me. Both are NPCs available to whoever
[Carissa] Potma is professor/plantologist (aka botanist) and Tiffress is gnome miner
[TMO] Potoma was Carissa's?
[Master] so TMO and Lara and Michael are without speaking roles and there are two characters to take
[Carissa] Anyone grab whoever. I'm not married to either, of course, and I'm half busy so there you go. Two for two.
[mharm-05997] I can take one, but may not know how to properly play them
[mharm-05997] I don't remember the tone of their characters
[Master] Carissa can guide you
[mharm-05997] That's fine
[Carissa] Tiffress doesn't have much personality yet. She's just the sister of Siffress who died on the last trip
[Master] and she will have a new speaking voice soon
[mharm-05997] I can do Tiffress
[Lara] okay. give me whatever is left over.
[Carissa] Potma just think Potoma from Harry Potter
[TMO] 1d100, high roll gets Tiffress, Low roll gets Potoma
[mharm-05997] Yeah, I don't care that much. I
[mharm-05997] :)
[Lara] (1d100) [1d100=15] 15
[Master] and I will go get the chat and give you the basics
[Carissa] And if you need plant facts or something, I can give you those. Or make things up.
[Lara] I was practicing
[mharm-05997] (1d100) [1d100=61] 61
[mharm-05997] LOL
[Lisa] TMO - do you want Johan?
[Spring] I really like Potoma
[TMO] Roll #1: (d100) [1d100=97] 97
[Lisa] I don't have to play anyone
[Lisa] and you know Johan
[Lara] no, I don't have to play anyone
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.20201030c#LeaveOnMiningExpedition
[TMO] ok, if that's what you want, I can take Johan
[Carissa] So I would say
[mharm-05997] (NO! You can play someone Lara. I don't want you left out!!!)
[Carissa] If you want to more kick back, Lara, go with Potma.
[mharm-05997] (If you don't want to, that's fine, but I don't want you left out at all!)
[Carissa] Tiffress will be in a more leading role right now as she's finding the mine. Well, found it.
[Carissa] *kick back as in not in charge, more commentary role ;)
[Lara] okay. I would like to kick back. I just got wind that my brother was spotted back at the liquor store.
[Master] Tiffress Wildwander (Carissa) shrugs, "You asked me to find a mine. I found you one. How you deal with it is up to you all." [Lord Tiberius (Master)] Obviously there cannot be too many fireballs [Johan the Apprentice (Master)] Look little gnome lady [Johan the Apprentice (Master)] We do not take kindly to such aspersions
[Lara] my heart's broken
[Carissa] I'm sorry :(
[Master] HUGS Lara
[Spring] :-(
[mharm-05997] :(
[Lara] man, oh, man
[Ryan] :(
[Lisa] sorry :(
[Lara] okay. so Potma
[TMO] sorry
[Lara] it was so hard to get him into the free treatment center and he checked himself out of the 90 day program, only 3 days in
[Carissa] td;lr Tiffress and Johan spotted an opening and probably goblins. They argued who goes in first.
[mharm-05997] Sorry Lara
[Lara] thanks
[Carissa] Damn :/
[Lara] okay...I’m Potma?
[Master] So that you have the timeline in your head, on 6-2-349 Tiffress, Skarp, Tiberius, Johan, Kenna, Potoma went off to look for a mine
[mharm-05997] (Yes, but I'm afraid I don't know much. I can try to help though. Also, Tiffress is gnome?)
[Master] they found the mind then
[Carissa] (Potoma? lol I can't spell my own character's name right)
[mharm-05997] Oh boy. Gonna need to not treat this character as a tank...
[Master] Keeping you all on the current Church Ground Floor map for now until you know what you are doing
[mharm-05997] One second
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (If I make a mistake, please correct me)
[Lara] okay. who am I again?
[Lisa] (no - female gnome who is a mining and smelting specialist)
[Lisa] (no tank)
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Potma)
Johan the Apprentice (TMO) clears his throat.
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Raises eyebrows: "Yes?"
[Lisa] (carissa - didn't you say you modeled Potoma on the herbology professor in Harry Potter?)
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] So, goblins? Any idea how many?
[Carissa] (yep!)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Hm. Not really. I'd prefer to not find out. They don't like my kind"
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (Snee asked her to help identify plants and animals that would be good to cultivate in this region)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "We could always mark this on the map and get some help"
Potoma (Lara) looks around
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Although..."
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Maybe I could at least see what kind of mine this might be? For all we know it might be exhausted of minerals.”
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "I can take a small sample and analyze it"
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "See what kind of Ore might be involved"
[Potoma (Lara)] I can see if there are any living plants
Johan the Apprentice (TMO) nods. "That's a good idea."
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "I'd prefer to find more valuable minerals, but Iron is found more commonly in these parts."
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "So don't get you hopes up."
[Potoma (Lara)] Agreed
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (I'll wait for bob to see if he will let me roll for a sample")
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (We don't have to go in if its not even useful)
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] So, I hope we won't be camping around here?
[Lisa] )Skarp also may know stuff about underground things)
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Purses lips
[Master] You have to go into the caves/mine to see what type of resources might be found here,
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "I'd prefer to not be here"
[Master] and as a reminder that is where the goblins fled into
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (I mean, I know that being underground is better than being aboveground)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (You can get an ore sample at the mouth of a mine bob.)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (But we can go in if necessary)
[Master] (Spring lost power)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Oh no
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] OK
[Master] (She is coming back)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (So how far in do you want us to go for a sample bob?)
[Master] That is up to the group
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Group?)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (What say you?)
[Master] you did a quick display of strength and drove off the goblins
[Master] they fled into the cave
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] I wouldn't go any further than we have to.
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] How far is "have to'?
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Well, I mean yeah, but we didn’t spend all this time looking for a mine to only have to find another one.)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Modern Tech, you can take a sample from 5 feet of earth. Back then? Probably 3-4 feet of solid rock with a pick)
Skarphedin (Ryan) shrugs
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (You have to go through layers)
[Potoma (Lara)] (should I be on a map of the cave?)
[Potoma (Lara)] (thank you!)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Well, here's how I see it"
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Gestures to the Cave
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] Erm, my suggestion would be to mark this on the map, and see if we can find more mines, so that we can take our pick.
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Pauses
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Then nods
[Potoma (Lara)] (haha---take your pick! punny)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Ok"
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Shrugs
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Pulls out map
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Carefully marks the entrance with a skull and crossbones. Leaves a big question mark for the spot on ore type.)
[Lisa] lol Lara
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Tiberius? I know we aren't going all the way in, But I just want to pick up a couple nearby rocks near the cave entrance without going full in. Is that ok if you escort me?"
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Looks Nervous
[Master] Carissa you can speak as you wish
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) We just need a rock or two
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (ok power is out and my batteries are acting weird
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (my biggest battery won't invert anymore and my second biggest won't run the dock for some reason)
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Why settle for three?
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Confused look
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Three what?"
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] rocks
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Why not take them all
[Carissa] (so sorry, give me a few more minutes)
[Carissa] I am away from the keyboard.
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] They are only goblins
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Well, one or two will give a good enough reading. For at least surface minerals. It won't be as good as a full ore sample, but if the mine is rich enough, the surface rocks may show the ore type."
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Nods
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "But we don't know how many there are. I cannot fight as well as you or Johan..."
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Glances around nervously
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "We can always come back"
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "The goblins aren't going anywhere"
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Of course not as well as me
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Smiles
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] but maybe as well as Johan
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Of course not Lord"
Johan the Apprentice (TMO) frowns to himself.
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Winks at Johan behind Tiberius back
Potoma (Lara) quietly watches
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] If this is the mine you think we should check out
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] then lead the way
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Hesitates
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] and we will take it for ourselves
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] if it is worthwhile
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) I uh. Well
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Licks dry lips
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "You see, The thing is, I don't really know until I sample the rocks. It may be useless."
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] If we go in five or 6 feet I can use my pick to get a decent sample in an hour or so."
Lord Tiberius (Master) points to Johan
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] He was and now he is not
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Glances at Johan
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Sighs
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] What do you need from us?
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Ok. Let's just go in a few feet."
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] (you were here for that Michael, Lisa can kick your memory)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "I need to do some brie mining. Even if I cannot get an immediate read, I can always check better back at the Church"
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] Thanks. Ever so much.
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (I know. I'm roleplaying)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Wait. Unless I am misunderstanding something?)
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] What does the church have to do anything?
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] I thought we were out here having an adventure
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] instead of sitting around the church being bored
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] Yes. Definitely. That's it exactly.
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] They are not doing anything exciting there
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] Would you like a rock to remember your adventure by?
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] All the undead are gone
Skarphedin (Ryan) frowning.
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Why would we want to have an adventure? We are setting up a mine.
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Patiently explains "Yes Lord, but If I cannot immediately Identify the rock, I may need more time in a more, ah, peaceful setting to look. But, if you are confident, I can take more time here)
Lord Tiberius (Master) raises his arms, THIS ....
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] THIS is an adventure!
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Looks to companions. Shrugs
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Alright then. Let's go about 20 feet.
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] I'll keep you in sight.
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "I'll take samples every 10 or so."
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Let's go"
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] I heard it was every 100 feet?
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Rolls eyes
[Lord Tiberius (Master)] I think we need to go deeper
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "I'm thinking you just want to kill some Goblins?"
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Says slyly
Potoma (Lara) shifts uncomfortably
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Ok. 100 Feet. I'll take samples every 20. But no more
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] We don't even know if there is anything good here. Well, maybe goblin filth and..."
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Gestures as if thinking
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Well, Goblin stuff"
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Looks around. "Everyone ready? Be on your Guard."
Johan the Apprentice (TMO) sighs.
Potoma (Lara) takes a deep breath
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "There are older and more fouler things then Goblins in the deep place of the earth..."
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (I really need to do a LOTR marathon again)
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] Why am I not surprised?
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Tiffress Wildwander moved 27'04".
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Are we going to find a balrog?)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Maybe)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] /on her guard
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (That was one of the coolest parts of that movie was how they portrayed that Balrog. The book isn't so detailed, but the movie was epic)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Gives me shivers even now thinking about it)
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #7 moved 15'09".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #8 moved 2'01".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #6 moved 13'04".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #5 moved 12'03".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #4 moved 11'08".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #3 moved 11'02".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #13 moved 17'03".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #12 moved 15'03".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #11 moved 15'01".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #10 moved 9'03".
[Master (to GM only)] Drarm #5 moved 12'11".
[Master (to GM only)] Goblin #9 moved 14'03".
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] So...At 10 feet. Mines one foot of rock, and then snaps parts of the far part of the rock into a sliver and places it in a pouch. Twists in her hand to see if she can immediately tell what it might be
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Tiffress Wildwander: Mining check: (d20) [1d20=14] 14 - ROLL FAILED against 7!!
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Sigh
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Well
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Bob Ruling?)
[Master] Tiffress Wildwander moved 2'00".
[Master] So you can tell just how tight this area is
[Master] map sent to Michael with Tiff on it
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] So, can Tiberius even stand in here?
[Master] no
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Then I leave
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "Sorry Lord, you cannot fit in here"
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] "I won't risk going in further"
[Master] Ryan? Skarp has ideas?
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Places sample in her pouch
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Skarp doesn't really know mining all that well was my understanding)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Can Tiffress see farther due to Infravision?)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Or is that it)
[Master] If she stays inside for a while to adjust her eyes
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Skarp is willing to stick around Tiffress to help protect her, but doesn't have any skill in mining.)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Nope. Not doing that)
[Master] but that is what you see with only a round
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Unless Skarp does that)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (No offense, but Tiffress is like, not a fighter at all as far as I can tell)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Don't want to lose one of the few experience miners in the group)
[Master] the group needs to come up with a quick plan
[Master] you drove off the goblins .... INTO the caves
[Master] now you have a potential mine
[Master] will you give it up to the goblins?
[Master] or will you go in and determine if you want to claim it
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Skarp isn't going to force a person who is terrified of going in further to go in further.)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Frankly bob, I don't want to just throw away characters. Only two of us can fit in here. Our best fighter is out there. This is not an easy situation
[Master] thank you Michael, bows
[Lisa] (Skarp has underground skills doesn't he?)
[Master] That is the idea
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (I can tell things like elevation, I suppose.)
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (why force yourself to do something no one is asking you to? The one pushing going in is Tiffress)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (I think a safe middle ground is to at least see if the sample is viable before deciding this. We can always mine the opening larger)
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (I thought Tiffress didn't want to go in)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (I didn't. But I thought we had to do that)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Help me guys)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (I'm not exactly sure what to do and I'd love to hear alternative plans)
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Skarp is willing to go in, but won't know anything about mining. So, unless Tiffress wants to go in, there isn't any point, in his eyes)
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (Johan gave his)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] TMO has offered up
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Then back out
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] I have a sample. I want to examine it first
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] The Goblins aren't exactly going anywhere
Potoma (Lara) thoughtfully "I think it is wise to test the sample."
Skarphedin (Ryan) nods in understanding.
[Master] Tiffress thinks this is a worthwhile mine to explore
[Master] based on previous rolls
[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Carissa] (you want to explore it; it was a really good roll and the chances are... not good we'd get another good roll soon)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Bob No. I know it might be foolish. But this isn't a safe situation to be in.
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] There is no winning here
[Master] chuckles
[Carissa] (You have two really good fighters with you plus a priestess)
[Master] Carissa is on point you found this as the most likely high value mine in the area
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Do I want to give it up? No. But unless we get a magical dwarf army, this isn't safe)
[Carissa] (it's one roll a week; it'll be MONTHS before you find one again)
[Master] the Wastes are not safe
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Yes Carissa, but they cannot FIT in the tunnels)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Only Skarp and I can
[Master] that is just something to fix Michael
[Carissa] (missed that part, but still doable. does Kenna have stone shape per chance?)
[Master] Kenna can but Spring is not here
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I’m here
[Master] ahh
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (Look. I'm not upset with anyone, but I'm getting frustrated because I'm not sure how to properly proceed. And I'm not trying to be difficult, I just don't actually no what to do)
[Carissa] (chistle? some kind of dwarf check?)
[Master] then see
[Master] Michael it is supposed to be hard and to be an adventure
[Carissa] (my impression is it won't be "found" unless they explore more, and if you leave, we may not find this spot again)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Ok. Then I wait a round to see if I can see farther first
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] I guess
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Let eyes adjust
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I’m only getting the rough outlines of the problem)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (Tiffress has some samples)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Skarp and Kenna being here would be nice as comfort
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (but we need deeper samples?)
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (huh, I got a different one. my impression is we found it, but clearing it is possibly a different expedition)
Ryan is receiving the map Hillside 1...
Ryan has received the map Hillside 1.
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (if the goblins are already here, we are NOT equipped to drive out an entire clan)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Thank you
[Carissa] I am away from the keyboard.
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I am coming with you
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Skarp moves into the mine to support Tiffress. Sorry, was thinking I was already near Tiffress.)
[Master] You know based on what Tiffress has discovered that this is a viable mine that is about 2 miles away from Skull Church so inside the Protectorate, you found the area as you were exploring and think it is worth exploiting, you encountered goblins also in this area, when you encountered them you scared them and they retreated into the cave entrance that would be your mine
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] So it is a viable mine
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] OK
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (but did they retreat *back* into the cave?
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (okay)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Then let's return with workers and simply start working at the tunnel mouth to enlarge it and work inwards
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (we still need samples? or is that enough to be going on with?)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] With guards
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] if we have all the knowledge we need at this time, we should return in force
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] They can only really come from inside the tunnels, so as long as there is a lookout like Skarp, we'll know when to evacuate the mine before Goblin combat
[Master] your working knowledge is that this might be a worthwhile mine you do not know if anyone is living there now, using it, exploiting it, and you do not know what might be found there
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] (For all we know, the tunnels extend all the way back to Skull Church)
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Bangs head
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] OK
[Master] two miles underground would be quite a feat of construction
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Someone else take a crack at this issue. I need to just take a moment. Please
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (but if you've had hundreds of years to do it ...)
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] BRB
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (if we don't need more samples/information, we move on. if we DO need more samples/information, we send a party of our smaller members inside)
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (I mean, we found it, she thought it look viable last session. Do we need more?)
[Master] The goblins have been accedent in the Wastes for roughly 50 years
[Lisa] did someone bring a flag?
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (oh okay I thought it was longer)
[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Carissa] But how long until we can get others to come out with us? They're all busy with the moat.
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (eh, the mine isn't going anywhere. :) )
[Master] I will give you the hint that any potential mine here in the Wastes that you can easily find..... others can find too and so will be trying to exploit as well
[Master] also Snee sent you out as a group to go solve this problem
[Lisa] hence the flag to keep people away
[Master] find a mine and take it
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (uh no)
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (alright, so I guess we have to take it too. So against the goblins we go.)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (Snee sent them out to scout for possible nime locations)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (taking it was nowhere in the mission)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (else the party would have been composed differently)
[Master] Spring has spoken
[Master] This is the group you have
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Spring: I have spoken)
[Master] so you have to figure out what you want to do to make Snee happy
[Master] grins
[Master] brb
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (lol Ryan, they are all females, the males get eaten)
[Carissa] My argument is that if we don't take this one, who knows how long until we find a new one AND who says it'll be any easier or better to take?
[Carissa] We know this one has value because of the goblins. I don't know if we'll find another of value anytime soon.
[Carissa] (And yes, my distraction means I missed some convo so sorry if I'm repeating or glossing over anything)
[Carissa] (But finally wrapping that up)
[Potoma (Lara)] (can Emerald talk to these Goblins too at a later date?)
[Spring] I kinda thought we were scouting and surveying
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (I still say it's not going anywhere. We found it, we can come back and take it. If the goblins can mine it empty in a couple of weeks, then it wasn't worth taking in the first place)
[Spring] we don't have enough people to take or to hold
[Spring] I was hoping we'd get a good 3 or 4 possibles and decide on one
[Carissa] I don't think it'll be just goblins waiting for us next time.
[Carissa] I doubt Bob would give us an encounter we couldn't handle
[Johan the Apprentice (TMO)] (okay, seems I'm outnumbered.)
[Spring] by whom?
[Carissa] And no, based on the rolls and the chance? Again, time is not on our side to find multiple mines unless you want to do this for many months
[Spring] I see carissa is in favor of taking. I’m not. who else?
[Carissa] To be fair, I missed what just happened, but after reading that first chat, I've been in favor of taking it.
[Lisa] I get what TMO is saying - if you kill the goblins inside you would have to leave someone there after wouldn't you? To hold it
[Spring] I was expecting it to take many months
Lara has left the game on Fri Dec 04 22:03:31 EST 2020
[Spring] Lisa, that is my understanding
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Skarphedin is always in favor of killing goblins)
[Spring] we'd need a much bigger party than we have
[Carissa] To give you an idea....
[Carissa] [Tiffress Wildwander (Carissa) (to GM only)] Tiffress Wildwander: Mining check: (d20) [1d20=4] 4 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 7!!
[Carissa] It's in chat so figure it's fair to show that now
[Spring] looks legit to me
[Carissa] I mean chances and rolls. Good roll, not the best of chance to succeed again soon.
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Spring] I think I made an error of unspoken expectations. things I thought were a given
Lara has joined the game on Fri Dec 04 22:05:55 EST 2020
Lara is receiving the map Base Map...
Lara has received the map Base Map.
[Spring] I thought an expedition would take a long time and investigate many places
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (BOB, while you were gone we cleared out the goblins and claimed the mine.)
[Master] grins at Ryan
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Snee is now known as the Mine Goddess)
[Carissa] What Ryan said! No need to check chat. We'll all vouch for it.
[Spring] I did not expect an expedition to be involved in acquisition of any kind
[Master] want to roll a percentage for how many of your characters died during the investigation?
Skarphedin (Ryan) rolls a 0.
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Oh, look at that.)
[Master] grins
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] I am back.
[Lara] I am back at the keyboard.
Potoma (Lara) (test)
[Carissa] (Yes)
[Spring] the long and short is we can't take it now. who wants to stay behind and guard it?
[Master] Yes to Spring you can always continue on to investigate more potential places
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] So our part of three miraculous warriors, of which one is in no way a combatant will e taking this mine. All in favor?
[Master] you can try to take this particular mine now
[Carissa] I think like we were underestimating Thistle, we're underestimating ourselves right now.
[Master] or you can explore more
[Spring] so even if we decide right now, this is the one, we need to go get fighters
[Master] Yes to Carissa
[Spring] given that we can clear the mine, who wants to stay behind to hold it?
[Master] they are Goblins, 1-4 HP for standard goblins
[Carissa] Tiberius is a fantastic fighter. Skarp can easily hold his own. Both especially against goblins. Potoma and Tiffress, not so much. Johan does have spells. Kenna definitely is good with her mallet.
[Lisa] think Johan used his spells on the first goblins??
[Lisa] he has no 1st lvl spells memorized - not sure why
[Master] He only used one or two spells
[Spring] Tiberius is too big to go in, he can only defend the outside
[Master] small sized can walk, man sized can crawl
[Master] it will be a challenge
[Master] and adventure :)
[Lisa] he can hypnotize all the goblins
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Shrugs in real life. OK. .
Lara has left the game on Fri Dec 04 22:10:55 EST 2020

[Carissa] Never played a Legend of Zelda game before? Crawl through all those spaces ;)
[Master] I am not forcing anyone into anything but as Carissa points out you are selling your selves short, you are a powerful group and can do a LOT
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Yeah, but in LoZ you have a fairy in a bottle that resurrects you
[Carissa] lol not that very first time you have to grab a sword
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Depends on cheats
Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997) Anyhoo
[Tiffress Wildwander (mharm-05997)] Let my eyes adjust and we'll begin. Tiberius can crawl I guess
[Master] 7th level 9th level 5th level

[Spring] I guess I’ll volunteer Kenna to hold it after we take it
[Carissa] Or leave Skarp and/or Tiffress. Fighter and also small for squeezing
[Master] Time of Day: 03:04 PM. Day 6 Pen ___ de, Sow {Late Spring} 6th, 349 SKR.

[Lisa (to TMO only)] if you don't have light you can cantrip a small light that goes 5 ft you - better than walking into walls
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] everybody shorter than THIS, walk this way
Kenna Westfoot (Spring) holds her arm out
[Master] Skarphedin moved 1'08".

[Lisa (to TMO only)] but goblins hate light and get a -1 to attacks when light is shone on them so maybe after they target you light would be a good thing

[Master] and so Skarp can make a d100 roll please
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] /roll 1d100
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Sorry, LOL that works on Roll20)
[mharm-05997] lol
[Master] curly brackets
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (roll1d100) [1d100=82] -1
[mharm-05997] Dude
[Lisa] is that for loot or how many goblins are up ahead?
[Master] that was to find the nugget of silver
[Master] that this mine can produce
[mharm-05997] So a silver mine.
[Lisa] good
[Master] he has luck
[Lisa] nice
[mharm-05997] Congrats guys. You saved the day
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (yay!)
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Huzzah)
[Master] NOW you need a d10
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Me, or Kenna?)
[Master] Skarp
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (roll1d10) [1d10=10] -1
[Master] WOW
[mharm-05997] Huh
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (this lantern is freaking inconvenient. I need a continual light hat up in here)
[Lisa] Ryan is on a roll
[Potoma (Lara)] (I didn't know that was possible)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (and I mean my house, not the cave)
[Lisa] lol Spring
[Master] and Laughs at Spring
[Master] and Spring will want to thank Ryan
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] ( I have to either hold it with one hand or put it in my mouth)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I don't get enough light if I set it down)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (thank you Ryan!)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I often want to thank Ryan)
[Master] So overall you have a Silver Mine that can with the right workers produce the equivalent of 2,000 silver pieces A WEEK
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Usually right before cursing Ryan)
[mharm-05997] Holy crap
[Master] Per Miner
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (whoa)
[mharm-05997] Well, Dragon's Fen just became rich
[mharm-05997] Hire Guards
[Lisa] so maybe rethink the whole give it to the goblins thing??
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (maybe we don't export the goblins to the mine. they;'ll become barons)
[Lisa] yup
[mharm-05997] Yep
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (LOL)
[Lisa] Skarp hit the motherlode
[mharm-05997] Congrats Ryan. That was all on you bud
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (then again, most of the goblins just died back at the church)
[mharm-05997] Army of two over there
[Master] There is still lots of stuff to make it actually happen
[mharm-05997] Yeah, but it's a start right?
[Master] but Skarp and Tiff can see this is a very valuable mine
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (If it was anything but goblins, Skarp would have croaked)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (well done Skarp!)
[Lisa] that'll buy a lot of hams :D
[mharm-05997] That will get those glass panels for the church
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (oh yeah! we found our funding!)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (no, not the church lol)
[mharm-05997] I think this will be important enough the Bran would send reinforcements and workers for this
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (the believers need to pay for that)
[mharm-05997] LOL
[Master] So that you can do a bit of planning
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Mining
[Master] you have a placer mine
[Master] with Silver and the Max amount
[Lisa] but the lighthouse will be easier to fund
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (woo hoo, lights are backup, let's see if they stay)
Kenna Westfoot (Spring) taking lantern out of my mouth
[Lisa] lol
[Master] on that page there is the information about how much it will cost, how long the mine might last, etc.
[Lara] I had a great first night back
[Master] I will work out math for you
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (lucky my fridge is DC, it didn't draw much out of the battery)
[Master] very glad Lara
[mharm-05997] Glad to hear that Lara :)
[Lisa] So glad you are back Lara
[Lara] thanks you guys
[Master] hope you get to come back every week
[Master] and let loose
[mharm-05997] And nothing is saying that we cannot find additional potential mines
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (so glad you are back Lara!)
[Lara] I’m gonna head out for the night
[Master] exactly Michael, this was the first you found so far
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (niety night!)
[Carissa] Night Lara!
[Lisa] Goodnight!
[mharm-05997] I think I will too. I'm exhausted
[Lara] thank you all---and WAY TO GO SKARP!
[mharm-05997] Night all :)
[Carissa] And Michael
[mharm-05997] And yes, great job Ryan
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Night!)
[mharm-05997] :)
Lara has left the game on Fri Dec 04 23:05:33 EST 2020
[Lisa] Goodnight!
mharm-05997 has left the game on Fri Dec 04 23:05:37 EST 2020
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (niety mite Michael!)
[Lisa] did the mine elevation change as they got further in?
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (it did feel good to just whack on some goblins for a while)
[Master] Spring I will have some notes for you on the site later on
[Lisa] I mean how tall the ceiling is?
[Master] on what the mine process is
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (k)
[Lisa] didn't say that well
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (This will be our Moria.)
[Master] the mine is still only 4-5 foot tall
[Lisa] ok
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (did it slope up or down or not as we went along?)
[Master] Skarphedin and Kenna Westfoot moved 21'02".
[Master] Skarphedin and Kenna Westfoot moved 23'01".
[TMO] nice cave map
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (yeah I like it)
[Master] grins at Spring and Lisa, those rolls are on the Mining page
[Master] we will get to those next week
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (oh rolls, okay)
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (TBD)
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Actually, looking at the time, I should probably head out as well. Sorry)
[Master] using this map as your starting point
[Master] have a great night Ryan
[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Night!
Ryan has left the game on Fri Dec 04 23:08:28 EST 2020
[Lisa] Goodnight .,,
[Master] so now Spring you will need to assemble the mining team
[Carissa] Night!
[TMO] (the look my dog just gave me as he walked by....)
[Master] a group of people to actually work the mine for you
[Master] so the characters do not have to
[Master] a smelter, a miner etc.
[Lisa] Ryan can maybe name the mine next week? Or take submissions?
[Lisa] the Lucky Dwarf mine?
[Master] I will link everything on the site
[Master] and I like that one Lisa
[Lisa] mines have to have a name
[Master] the Protectorate will be able to at least be self sufficient soon
[Master] You will have something to produce
[Master] far more than expected
[Spring] oh heck I was just plugging stuff back in and missed Ryan leaving
[Carissa] Tiffress requested a mine named after her sister, but up to you all
[Spring] I think we should fulfill that promise
[Spring] Siffress Wildwander's Lucky Dwarf Mine
[Carissa] lol there you go
[Lisa] nice!
[Master] Potoma XP award: 50. Next level in 0.
[Master] Lord Tiberius XP award: 100. Next level in 71085.
[Master] Johan the Apprentice XP award: 100. Next level in 15335.
[Spring] sounds kind of like a casino
[Master] Skarphedin XP award: 200. Next level in 23715.
[Master] Kenna Westfoot XP award: 200. Next level in 180023.
[Master] Tiffress Wildwander XP award: 100. Next level in 0.
[TMO] congrats
[Spring] whee!
[TMO] btw, Bob, I had a weird thought the other day. Whenever it does come time to replace Brer (will still be quite a while I'm sure), do I take the level penalty based on his current level, or his maximum level? ;)
[TMO] after all, he started at 8
[Master] current level
[TMO] hehe. :)
[TMO] sure thing
[Master] Skarphedin XP award: 1000. Next level in 22715.
[Lisa] he'll be 7th lvl in no time
[Lisa] ok I'm taking off
[Lisa] Goodnight!
[TMO] oh, he is way closer than I was thinking
Lisa has left the game on Fri Dec 04 23:17:32 EST 2020
[Spring] gnite lista!
[Master] It will all be good
[TMO] yup
[Master] things are working out well for the group
[Spring] I guess next week we get to decide who stays behind to hold the mine
[Master] yes several choices to make
[TMO] I just need to adjust my expectations for whatever I wind up with, it won't be highly competent. Just mildly so. :)
[TMO] that's the cost of character swapping.
[Master] and then a bit of talking to decide look for additional mines and or other options
[Master] and recruiting NPCs to help handle all the chores
[Master] then some building soon for housing and the mines
[Master] and then tackle Hourglass
[Carissa] (whoops missed that night Lisa)
[Master] only 2 more sessions left this year
[Carissa] Dang. Already?
[Master] grins
[Spring] wow
[Master] my guestimate is get to the point where you are able to concentrate on Hourglass for the January sessions
[Master] with the mines working away in the background
[TMO] works for me
[Master] and the goblins and moat handled
[Master] you have 10 months to work the mine, Hourglass finish the path to Travelers Way
[Master] and have one or two other small adventures
[Master] depending on the construction issues
[Master] so you are moving right along
[Master] will have the full story arc wrapped up by February
[Master] then maybe some more training
[Master] and then the next adventure that involves everyone
[Master] from all the parts of Dragon Fen
[Carissa] To hell with all of you! (But also not yet)
[Master] no that is not for a while
[Carissa] I just really wanted to say it
[Carissa] ...type it
[Spring] hehehe
[Master] there are bullywugs and lizardmen and an abandoned tower and another abandoned village
[TMO] btw Bob - just to explain earlier, we've been dealing with a goblin horde for the last few months that's been too tough for us to take on directly. so tonight was for all we knew another horde, with a very weak team all alone with no backup.
[Master] YOU thought it was too tough to take on directly
[TMO] yes
[TMO] another 200 goblins? definitely
[Master] this was a good reminder that you are 5th, 7th, 8th level
[TMO] so is the main team
[TMO] even stronger
[Master] and can tackle a LOT
[TMO] and did you not try to drag people off regardless of level using goblin horde tactics? :)
[Master] grins
[TMO] so the main power team can't tackle their goblin horde, but the weak team can attack theirs head on.
[TMO] so, that's just where my mind was, that's all
[Master] OR the main team could have and did not have the right mind set
[Spring] I think also a goblin horde attack requires space to perform it
[Master] and in this case you eliminated all the goblins you found
[Spring] if that many goblins cant get in, that's a limiter, yes?
[Spring] they only attacked in batches of 3
[Master] so you do not know yet if this is a splinter group
[Master] from which tribe
[Master] you have at least rumors of three different tribes of goblins in the Wastes
[Master] with one calling himself the King
[TMO] eh, I saw cave, assumed horde. After all, they've been here way longer than us. They've had plenty of time to find this place.
[Spring] well if he aint got a horn then f him lol
[Master] LOL spring
[Spring] now that we know what makes a proper king
[Master] LOTs to have fun with over the next year
[Spring] but yeah I am with you TMO
[Spring] I assumed we were deaders as soon as we walked in
[Spring] but I was tired of arguing so whatever
[Master] It was Carissa who said you are stronger than you remember
[Spring] if they do actually do a horde attack, how are we not dead or slaves?
[TMO] k, think I'll head out too
[TMO] g'nite all!
[Spring] gnite TMO
[Carissa] Night TMO!
[TMO] see you next week!
[Master] That is a problem to deal with Spring
[Master] night TMO
[Carissa] No tomorrow
TMO has left the game on Fri Dec 04 23:30:47 EST 2020
[Carissa] Preventing a horde?
[Spring] yeah I dunno, is space an issue for a horde?
[Master] What will the group do to keep them in line
[Master] OR will you move them out
[Carissa] I still vote big scary animal or something for obvious reasons (i.e. I always vote animal)
[Spring] frankly I’d like to exterminate the fighters and adopt the women and children but I’m vicious that way
[Carissa] lol and yet I'm okay with that
[Master] I will make notes for you
[Master] I think it was 40 males left?
[Spring] and now that we know hard work kills them ....
[Master] well it is black puddings that kill
[Master] you just had them in front to take the hits
[Carissa] Did we kill the black puddings yet?
[Master] yes
[Carissa] Oh good
[Spring] well they weren't supposed to be
[Master] Once you are in sync again on the timeline
[Spring] they were supposed to be just throwing dirt into the moat
[Master] the Moat will be completed
[Spring] and Pete was supposed to douse the puddings in oil
[Master] that was part of it
[Spring] and somebody was supposed to set the oil on fire
[Master] wood, oil, fire, filling in the moat etc.
[Spring] so if that didn’t go according to plan, well hell
[Master] 900 feet of it
[Carissa] OSHA wasn't there
[Spring] yeah I guess that's it
[Carissa] Wouldn't have approved of our set-up anyways
[Master] but just like how you took hits from the puddings
[Master] the goblins did too
[Master] but they only have 4
[Master] so each hit wipes out a goblin where for your side it just wounds
[Spring] we took hits after we doused them in oil? I didn’t remember that part
[Master] They can move
[Master] out over the ground etc.
[Master] as they get attacked
[Master] is why we did it in the abstract
[Master] rather than rolling a bunch of attacks
[Spring] okay, I guess if we didn't burn them fast enough I can see how that would happen
[Master] and Carissa will be ready next week to meet up with the mining group
[Carissa] Mining group? I thought they were too far away
[Master] time wise for the rest of the group here yes, but for a ranger to happen upon them
[Master] grins
[Carissa] Eh fair
[Carissa] I'll try to finish that up over the weekend. Expect at least one more text
[Spring] well okay then
[Spring] okay I’m out now. have a good night!
[Carissa] Good plan. Night!
