[Master] ==== Gaming session started: Fri Feb 12 13:56:50 EST 2021 ====

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Feb 12 19:03:38 EST 2021

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Master] Hello there

[Master] new map

[Lisa] Hello!

[Master] How did the week end?

[Lisa] with a fight, fight, fight!

[Lisa] lol

[Master] chuckles

[Lisa] other than that okay

[Master] glad

[Lisa] did you see that video?

[Master] no

[Lisa] I had to fast forward parts. Too repetitive

[Lisa] Went about 8 minutes of people saying fight

[Master] ouch

[Master] I got 20 miles in on the bike today

[Lisa] great

[Master] in between three meetings on my day off

[Master] I have not heard from Lara other than what she posted on the Discord

[Master] Hope that TMO has solved all his issues

[Master] OH and finally found the answer today about the streaming Marlins games

[Master] Yes they do on the Fox Sports Go app

[Master] which you can sign in on with your cable provider

[Lisa] lol

[Lisa] which you just axed

[Master] so there is no way to just watch without having cable

[Master] there is the MLB.com site and pay for away games only

[Lisa] always a catch

[Master] or watch home games 90 minutes after they are completed

[Master] which is stupid

[Lisa] so going back to cable?

[Master] so I will be watching them the way I have up here most of the games anyway

[Master] no

[Master] have not cancelled yet but will soon

[Master] Just will have to try some other things

Ryan has joined the game on Fri Feb 12 19:11:53 EST 2021

[Lisa] Hi Ryan!

[Master] Hello

[Lisa] Buy season tickets and run the game on your laptop in the bleachers

[Ryan] Hello!

[Master] LOL

Michael has joined the game on Fri Feb 12 19:14:23 EST 2021

[Ryan] Hi, Michael!

[Lisa] Hi Michael!

TMO has joined the game on Fri Feb 12 19:14:43 EST 2021

[Lisa] And hello TMO!

[Michael] Hey guys. Fair warning, I did post on site, I gotta be outta here 8 AZ time

[TMO] looks like I can play this week!

[Lisa] yay!!

[Michael] But I'll do what I can

[Michael] Also Hi TMO!

[Michael] I'm so excited we got whatever was up fixed. Do you know what happened?

[TMO] my internet provider ran an update and that borked a whole lot of people

[Master] Time of Day: 08:02 AM. Day 11 Trall ___ tre, Bel {Mid Fall} 11th, 349 SKR.

[Ryan] So... what I am hearing is that we are going to kill the entire village in the first 30 minutes rather than talking to to them for three hours first, right?

[Michael] ...Di you say Borked?

[TMO] I said borked

[Michael] :)

[Ryan] In order to make sure that Michael is here for the most important plot points

[Michael] I got a good chuckle out of that. My dog said she did too

[Michael] Go ahead Ryan

[Michael] Just not the wrong points lol

[Michael] I'm on the verge of a nervous breakdown this week

[Ryan] Oh, I was referring to my post above

[Michael] Don't need to add to it. LOL

[Michael] Oh boy

[Michael] Yeah, let's not massacre any villages

[Michael] Unless we have too

[Lisa] lol

[Ryan] Massacre has a negative connotation. Purge is much more PR-friendly.

[Lisa] I'm sorry to kill you all but you leave me no other choice

[Michael] Also Lisa, LinkedIn wont' quit bugging me about you. Can't figure up what’s up, but they keep sending me emails to connect with you after you already accepted my invite

[Ryan] Lisa's getting into the spirit

[Michael] Keeps saying: "Connect with Director. Lisa"

[Lisa] LinkedIn sucks

[Michael] This ever happen to you?

[Ryan] Wait... Lisa refuses to even tell me her last name.... she gave you her LinkedIn?!??!

[Michael] Alrighty then. Ok. Problem solved haha

[Lisa] not with you but with people in my group at work

[Michael] I purposely forget her last name so as to maintain her anonymity :)

[Ryan] Lisa is a smarty. I wouldn't give me my last name either, if I had a choice.

[Michael] Also good to know thank you.

[Lisa] my name is all over the place

[Michael] SHHHH

[Michael] Don't say that

[Ryan] Lisa.... Murkowski?

[Master] ouch

[Lisa] My life is based on a cartoon character

[Michael] They are watching...whoever they are. Aliens, I don't know. Pick something

[Michael] Longest running one if I'm not correct

[Ryan] Are you playing DND while in the middle of an impeachment trial?

[Michael] What what?

[Lisa] I would rather play than watch that trial

[Michael] lol

[TMO] I would rather cheese grater my hands rather than watch that trial

[Lisa] lol

[Michael] You mean that Shit-show that is pretending to be a trial? Who lets the defense meet with the jurors to "Discuss Strategy?" What the actual fudge?

[Ryan] If I still lived in Alaska, I would vote for you based on that statement alone, Senator Murkowski.

[Lisa] Thank you. I appreciate the support

[Michael] Also, apparently I need to write to my Legislator Lisa for all my life's woes now. Congrats Lisa, your moving up in the world

[Master] You need to set up a Dragon Fen Super PAC

[Michael] Can you get me another stimulus LOL!

[TMO] there's an author with my dad's name, but nobody famous with mine.

[Michael] The debts gone to hell anyways, might as well add to it

[Lisa] I am a cartoon character

[Michael] Your popular on my LinkedIn Too TMO, but it never actually bothers me. Your picture just shows up a lot.

[Ryan] I will admit that yours is the first instance of a person named TMO that I have met

[Michael] LOL. Yeah...we just call him that

Carissa has joined the game on Fri Feb 12 19:22:31 EST 2021

Carissa is receiving the map Church Ground Floor...

Carissa has received the map Church Ground Floor.

[Ryan] Hi Carissa! I wish I had something stupid that came to mind when thinking of your name, but I got nothing.

[Lisa] And we have been trying not to drool all over you Ryan Gosling

[Lisa] Hi Carissa

[Michael] Hi Carissa. Welcome to hell

[Lisa] All the famous people play

[Ryan] So.... you will have to join Michael in the, "Ryan isn't making dumb jokes at your expense" club

[Carissa] Hi all!

[Carissa] lol I'll just wait until next time

[TMO] Bob thinks Bill Murray played with us for a while

Michael Lol

[Ryan] Actually, I told Michael that we had to purge unspecified villages, so.... you might be alone with BOB

[Carissa] lol

[Master] I do wonder if that did happen

[Master] he did research about D&D for a role

[Master] BUT

[Lisa] no that was not bill Murray

[Master] in real news you are here at two buildings

[Master] grins at Lisa

[TMO] anything in particular I need to know before beginning?

[Ryan] Branwyn is a cannibal, her husband is a zombie, and her children are half-vampires, but we all knew that.

[Lisa] we told the village about the dragon turtle and they are ready to go to war

[TMO] yep. they're all on Brer's To-Do list when we get back.

[Lisa] surely there must be a better way than sending a village of gnomes to their death

[Carissa] Yeah, what's new Ryan?

[Lisa] lol

[Michael] Yeah, I agree. Maybe they could act as scouts at best

[Ryan] Can we find two more villages to send to their deaths as well?

[TMO] you need to have them bathe in BBQ sauce first

[Michael] Pff. And spewed my water TMO

[Michael] thanks

[Ryan] Not HUMAN villages, of course, but if we can find more gnomes?

[TMO] welcome!

[Michael] I'm starting to worry about Ryan guys

[Ryan] You are talking to yourself, Michael

[Ryan] Everyone else muted me months ago

[Carissa] Who's Ryan?

Michael Rolls eyes

[Carissa] I vaguely remember someone named Ryan....

[Carissa] Probably muted him

[Carissa] Anyways, I have little thoughts tonight. Second shot wasn't as nice as I hoped. But I'm here. Others may have to do the thinking

[Master] Glad you did get it though

[Michael] I'll try

[Master] Nyrma got her's today too

[Master] second dose

[Ryan] Last I heard, my state is only giving it to care personnel and teachers.

[TMO] still have 3 weeks before mine

[Carissa] If she's not feeling anything yet, she's either lucky or will feel it in 24 hours like I did

[Michael] I think after I finally can get mine, I'll still keep the N95 masks though. I worry about these new variants to be honest. I'd rather be safe then sorry

[TMO] how are you feeling Carissa?

[Master] but you have this guard you were talking to

[TMO] *whip crack*

[Carissa] It goes quick, the worst passed, but the fatigue linged today. Not sure if it's vaccine fatigue or my normal fatigue :P

[TMO] who was doing the talking? Start it up! :)

[Lisa] spring

[Lisa] :)

[TMO] somebody go drag her to her keyboard

[Carissa] And now I see the problem, lol

[Michael] I can try, but I'm a bit out of the loop here. If you give me some pointers, I can try for awhile

[Carissa] Can Indigo probe them more about their machine? They seem to like him, at least

[Ryan] Skarp will give Indigo a knife to help with the probing.

[Master] everyone likes Indigo

[Carissa] And Talwin can complain about the dragon turtle and see if it's the same thing? Because I still don't know

Brer Necholas (TMO) stretches.

[Lisa] why do we care about the harvester machine?

[Carissa] I wasn't sure if it was shaped like a Dragon Turtle and/or if it can withstand a dragon turtle and be the decoy to get that steam out of it before we attack

[Carissa] The village seemed oddly surprised that there is a dragon turtle? I don't know how you don't notices these things

[Michael] Probably because everyone who noticed ended up dead

[Michael] Need to use the RR. BRB in two minutes

[Carissa] We don't even know where the disappearing gnomes disappeared to: eaten? or machine work?

[Indigo (Lisa)] sorry I did something stupid with Adobe and it wants to take over my machine - almost done

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (did we confirm gnomes are actually disappearing? there seemed to be some confusion over that point, although I may have misread)

[Carissa] I am confused by that, yes

[Carissa] I am confused about what the machine is, if the dragon turtle is real, and where these gnomes are disappearing to

[Indigo (Lisa)] mining gnomes seem sure, fishing gnomes not so much

[Carissa] or leaving for?

[Michael] back

[Indigo (Lisa)] there sorry

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (honestly, if the fishing gnomes don't know anything about it, then the mining gnomes are probably wrong. long distance is less accurate than proximity)

[Carissa] Oh also we might want more healing before we jump back into the swamp

[Indigo (Lisa)] (so we talk and everyone asks their questions. No need for one person to ask everything)

[Carissa] Which is we ask might introduce us to Fourthing who knows things and can heal...

[Indigo (Lisa)] (that's a Spring thing)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (you can ask favors from priests)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (get your wallet out)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (thank you, btw, for the healing last week)

[Carissa] (lol I forgot greedy priests exists)

[Carissa] (I'll let questions be asked and jump in at some point to see if it'll be free or not)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (so Bob who are we talking to?)

Indigo (Lisa) looks at the guard "Can we talk to your village leaders?"

[Master] You have the guard there in front of you and the two teenage gnomes, this is where you left off the conversation last session

Spring has joined the game on Fri Feb 12 19:39:52 EST 2021

[Guard (Master)] Oh I will have to ask about that one

[Indigo (Lisa)] (Hi Spring!)

[Indigo (Lisa)] And Thungrat too please

[Spring] hallo!

[Ryan] Hi Spring

[Michael] (Take us to your leaders...

[Guard (Master)] Of course certainly she will be right now

[Master] Guard moved 12'00".

[Michael] (Getting into Character now)

[Jisthaock (Master)] Are you really sure about this?

[Indigo (Lisa)] About what?

[Gninthick (Master)] Yes

Spring has received the map Priest tower at Gnome Fishing Village.

[Michael] I am back at the keyboard.

[Jisthaock (Master)] I think we should leave

[Indigo (Lisa)] Are you going to bring back the swamp monster?

[Gninthick (Master)] Admiral are you going to go home?

[Gninthick (Master)] Or are you staying here?

[Indigo (Lisa)] No! We have to fight the turtle

[Jisthaock (Master)] THAT is what I have been saying thank you Admiral

[Jisthaock (Master)] NO

[Jisthaock (Master)] NOT that

[Jisthaock (Master)] Back to the part about going to the swamp monster

[Talwin (Michael)] (Am I lost? I thought the Turtle was the SM)

[Indigo (Lisa)] That's where you said you were going

[Jisthaock (Master)] Yes to go to the swamp monster

[Indigo (Lisa)] (it's like going to a gypsy village where they are all named Indigo)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Are you going to bring it here?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I'm not clear- does the swamp machine shoot steam?

[Jisthaock (Master)] No

[Gninthick (Master)] yes

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Indigo (Lisa)] If we had it here would it help kill the turtle?

[Gninthick (Master)] It

[Indigo (Lisa)] Or does it just mow mushrooms?

[Jisthaock (Master)] If you do not be quiet you are never going to be allowed out of the village ever again

[Carissa] (I've be rereading bday chat... very little information from it to know)

Indigo (Lisa) laughs

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (tx for looking)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Okay

[Indigo (Lisa)] No swamp monster

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nucCr7Sywgc - covid side-effects info

[Indigo (Lisa)] Is that guard getting your leaders or did he stop for second breakfast?

[Jisthaock (Master)] Probably waking her up

[Indigo (Lisa)] Is Thungrat the village leader?

[Master] Guard moved 5'10".

[Guard (Master)] You are welcome to come in

[Master] Guard moved 3'10".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Thank you!

[Master] Guard moved 2'07".

Indigo (Lisa) waves everyone forward

Talwin (Michael) Grumbles quietly in pain. Moves forward

[Master] scale is correct

[Talwin (Michael)] Talwin moved 37'07".

[Master] so Talwin can get down on his knees

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Skarphedin moved 23'01".

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Skarphedin moved 39'04".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Watch your heads!

Talwin (Michael) Bangs head

Indigo (Lisa) mumbles "Tall people"

[Master] ceiling is 5 foot

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I don't know that I'll fit with this armor on.

[Talwin (Michael)] "Ow"

Skarphedin (Ryan) glances in confusion.

Talwin (Michael) Stoops

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] What about my head?

[Indigo (Lisa)] We fit!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 37'11".

[Master] the doorway is only 2/3 the width of your normal doors

[Spring] (am I here?0

Talwin (Michael) Bows head respectfully

[Indigo (Lisa)] (yes)

[Master] Kenna Westfoot moved 10'10".

Talwin (Michael) Since can't bow fully

Brer Necholas (TMO) stands outside the door, listening.

[Indigo (Lisa)] (elves can probably fit too)

[Master] Kenna Westfoot moved 24'03".

[Master] N'laea moved 34'00".

[Master] Gninthick moved 1'08".

[Gninthick (Master)] Come on

[Jisthaock (Master)] She will smack your nose

[Jisthaock (Master)] You should not be there

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (omg brb)

[Spring] I am away from the keyboard.

Gninthick (Master) crouches down near the bush

Thungrat (Master) nodding

[Thungrat (Master)] Hello

[Indigo (Lisa)] Good morning Lady Thungrat

[Thungrat (Master)] Admiral Indigo ith good to have you visth

[Thungrat (Master)] Come in

[Indigo (Lisa)] Thank you

[Master] Thungrat moved 2'04".

[Master] Thungrat moved 8'05".

[Master] Indigo moved 11'05".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 24'03".

Brer Necholas (TMO) stands outside like R2 outside Yoda's hut

[Thungrat (Master)] If your friends wanth to join us

Indigo (Lisa) calls "Come on!"

N'laea (Carissa) quietly slips in

[Indigo (Lisa)] They are slow. they were almost dead. I was really dead and now I'm not so I move faster I guess

Talwin (Michael) A pleasure to meet your Acquaintance

[Thungrat (Master)] (anyone else joining at the table)

[Talwin (Michael)] Talwin moved 13'02".

[Talwin (Michael)] Hands and knees to Table

[Thungrat (Master)] (Skarp or N'laea? I will guess that Kenna would be there)

[Master] Kenna Westfoot moved 21'01".

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Skarphedin moved 7'07".

[N'laea (Carissa)] N'laea moved 10'10".

[Indigo (Lisa)] So we came here because the gnomes helping us mine said that a swamp monster was making villagers disappear

[N'laea (Carissa)] (didn't see the table until now)

Skarphedin (Ryan) glances around curiously.

Thungrat (Master) taps a wand on the table then points it at the door

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Sorry, dealing with some home stuff.)

[Thungrat (Master)] WHOOOOOSH

[Master] Brer can make an Alertness check

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (you are now inside the dragon turtle)

Indigo (Lisa) looks for a whoosh thing and then keeps going, "so we went to the swamps. I thought it would be an alligator or a hydra or something."

[Master] Brer notices that all sound from inside has ceased

[Master] Guard moved 2'03".

[Indigo (Lisa)] But it was a dragon turtle and it blew hot steam all over us

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (cat problems. I am trying to pay attention but I can't use my keyboard very much)

[Talwin (Michael)] (So...we can hear inside but no eavesdroppers? Or we can't hear anything inside?)

[Thungrat (Master)] Thath sounds horrible

[Indigo (Lisa)] (hope it's nothing serious)

Brer Necholas (TMO) bends over to try and stick his head through the door frame

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (super super needy)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Killed most of them.

[Guard (Master)] Excuse me

[N'laea (Carissa)] Or nearly

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Marisu had a spell that did this)

[Guard (Master)] They are having their meeting

[N'laea (Carissa)] (that bubble)

[Guard (Master)] We can wait here

Brer Necholas (TMO) stands back up. "Of course."

[Thungrat (Master)] How many of your people did you lose?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] So, how has it been out here lately? I heard conflicting stories from your youngsters on the walk here.

[Indigo (Lisa)] I died and Emerald and Talwin almost died. And Griff, Brer's dog died and Skarp and N’laea and Brer got really hurt

[Indigo (Lisa)] So it was really bad

Talwin (Michael) Grunts. "A couple Ma'am. We were more incapacitated"

[Talwin (Michael)] "Still healing up"

[Guard (Master)] The families go out and back still

[Indigo (Lisa)] And it was probably what made the other gnomes disappear

[N'laea (Carissa)] If Skarp, Brer, and I were still not standing, we'd all be gone.

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] Twas only a flesh wound for me

Skarphedin (Ryan) looks indignant

[Guard (Master)] somedays are more dangerous than others

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Are there many deaths or disappearances, or just injuries?

[N'laea (Carissa)] Still a little sore from it.,

[Thungrat (Master)] The families are very distressed

[Indigo (Lisa)] No one from your village has seen any turtles or strange things in the swamp?

Thungrat (Master) looks at Indigo hard

[Thungrat (Master)] Admiral, if you were to know of where a Dragon Thurthle is you would go seek it out?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Yes, that's what we're going to do now that we know

[Thungrat (Master)] How much would you pay for a map tho the place?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Of the swamp?

[Thungrat (Master)] The lair of this thurthle

[Indigo (Lisa)] Wait ... you already know?

[N'laea (Carissa)] Pay for a map to the beast that killed him?

Thungrat (Master) nods

[N'laea (Carissa)] His death wasn't payment enough?

[Thungrat (Master)] He is noth dead

[Indigo (Lisa)] But ... but ... why didn't you ask for help so we could do something?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Why would we pay, to Rid them of a pest?)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I'm very confused on this)

[Indigo (Lisa)] If we kill it would that pay for the map?

[N'laea (Carissa)] Not anymore, no, because of Aunt Kenna. But he died.

[Thungrat (Master)] Simply killing ith would noth be opthimal

[Indigo (Lisa)] But then it wouldn't attack anyone any more

[Thungrat (Master)] Ith would noth guard anything either

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] oh

[N'laea (Carissa)] Guard?

Thungrat (Master) watching the group to see if you connect the dots

[N'laea (Carissa)] N'laea: INU check: (d20) [1d20=11] 11 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 15!!

[N'laea (Carissa)] (as a player, no, lol)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I'm deliberately not paying attention since Brer can't hear any of this)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Do you have a deal with it or just like it being out there killing gnomes from other villages?

[Indigo (Lisa)] That's not very nice

[Thungrat (Master) (to Carissa only)] if you know where dragon turtle lives and can predict when and where it will be moving you could use it to guard things

[N'laea (Carissa)] Tsk. Like the hummingbirds who nest under hawks? You use it to protect your goods.

[Indigo (Lisa)] (brb)

[Thungrat (Master)] We thry tho leth the families know where tho go fish

[N'laea (Carissa)] Have any died before yesterday from this dragon turtle?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Unless, I'm misunderstanding this, I'm about to say, we will go back to the miners and tell them that your elder jerked us around and demanded we pay for a map to the beast that killed their friends. This is confusing malarkey)

[Thungrat (Master)] The swamps are a dangerous place, there are always losses

[Talwin (Michael)] (Then it's not our problem)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (we'll lose the miners which is the problem)

[Talwin (Michael)] (No. The miners will hopefully replace this crazy bat and understand that she was where the buck stopped)

[N'laea (Carissa)] The miners report some of their family members have left. Is it due to this turtle? You dance with a dangerous beast.

[Talwin (Michael)] (Put this on them)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I don't like being taken advantage of after we risked our lives to help them)

[Thungrat (Master)] Do you wanth tho go afther the beasth?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Can I break into the conversation?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (which is why we negotiate something fair)

[Thungrat (Master)] (you are there at the table sure)

[N'laea (Carissa)] It has hurt and killed many of us. What other options do you propose?

[Talwin (Michael)] Ma'am. May I speak frankly?

[Talwin (Michael)] Without insult intended?

[N'laea (Carissa)] And if it is what made the families disappear, for the miners, we need a solution/.

[Talwin (Michael)] (Working on it)

[Thungrat (Master)] If you cannoth speak withouth insulth why should you speak?

Talwin (Michael) Smiles

[Talwin (Michael)] I would like you to hear out our side of events fully so that you might understand our position

[Talwin (Michael)] I am sworn to Branwyn the mysterious to aid our settlement and deal with aid for those who may ask for it

[Indigo (Lisa)] (back - there are multiple gnome villages)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (not sure dead gnomes are from this village)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (ah fair point)

[Talwin (Michael)] We made a lucrative offer to many miners in the hope that we might better relationships with all of your kind no matter which village. We do this because we wish to be good neighbors and seek neutrality from all of your noble race

[Talwin (Michael)] I understand that our miners may not be from this village, but you must understand our delicate position

[Talwin (Michael)] Hear me out first, and I will be happy to negotiate with you more regarding this matter

[Talwin (Michael)] Several miners have had beloved family they love go missing and are worried about the swamp. They seek to abandon the mines to seek out revenge and kill this beast. Which, we both know would be futile

[Talwin (Michael)] This forces us to act in the interest of Gnome-kind in the area, as we seek to assist all in the protectorate as we are able

[Talwin (Michael)] We investigated in the interest of all the Gnome people, and paid a heavy price. We have lost a beloved companion Griff. A wonderful dog who has been a boon of friendship wherever we go

[Talwin (Michael)] We nearly all lost our lives in the attempt to protect any of your kind who requested it

[Talwin (Michael)] I understand you may be rival villages, however we do not discriminate when aid is requested

[Talwin (Michael)] Should you have asked for aid, we would have come because we believe in friendship

[Talwin (Michael)] We have done this, and with respect, you are requesting that we pay for this map to a beast that very well may one day turn on your own people if it finds a better offer

[Talwin (Michael)] This is an intelligent being

[Talwin (Michael)] And I do not know what deals you may have with it, but the dragon kind are selfish and greedy no matter who may be the buyer

[Talwin (Michael)] As long as it gets the better tribute, it will always turn on a former ally to my knowledge

[Talwin (Michael)] Who is to say, that if another village finds out, especially the gem miners, that they may not propose a better offer?

[Thungrat (Master)] We do noth pay Thributhe

Talwin (Michael) Holds hand

[Talwin (Michael)] Please, let me finish

[Talwin (Michael)] If you ever were to call us for aid, we would come without expectation of payment.

[Talwin (Michael)] Why would you ask us to pay? I am legitimately concerned.

[Talwin (Michael)] May I hear your full reasoning behind this matter before we speak of any payment. Honest, and frank. Nothing hidden, as I have hidden nothing from you.

[Talwin (Michael)] On my honor

[Thungrat (Master)] You came tho me tho seek outh help

Talwin (Michael) And if you had come to us for aid?

[Skarphedin (Ryan)] (Sorry, I know that I wasn't on long but I have to go.

[Talwin (Michael)] We would not ask for any payment

[Talwin (Michael)] It would be our duty to assist you

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (gnite Ryan!)

Ryan has left the game on Fri Feb 12 20:22:23 EST 2021

[Talwin (Michael)] In any possible way we could

[N'laea (Carissa)] (night Ryan!)

[Talwin (Michael)] I know our cultures are different, however I am attempting to be an honest man to ponder your reasoning behind this

[Indigo (Lisa)] How much do you want for the map?

[Talwin (Michael)] Does aid cost money for friendship?

[Talwin (Michael)] (OK. Fine)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (it might not be that much!)

[Indigo (Lisa)] :D

[Thungrat (Master)] We have lived here for 8 generathions

[Thungrat (Master)] We have noth asked for help from any of the human kings

[Talwin (Michael)] (I actually wanted the information so that I could understand why they would do this so in future situations if they come to us, we could demand payment. But yeah, this is stupid. I guess we'll just pay)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (no she is answering you)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Yeah)

[Thungrat (Master)] We thake care of our own

[Talwin (Michael)] (I'm saving this :) )

[Thungrat (Master)] As we see fith

Talwin (Michael) Waits to see if she is done

Thungrat (Master) turns to Indigo

Talwin (Michael) So, should we for now on simply remain cautious friends, and not consider you our own for now?

N'laea (Carissa) shrugs, "To be fair, my clan wouldn’t either."

Talwin (Michael) Looks at N'laea in horror

[N'laea (Carissa)] Seek human help

[Thungrat (Master)] I will give you the map in exchange for your promise to bring me the four chesths marked with our sigil

Talwin (Michael) Why not?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Not to Thungrat, that was aimed at N'laea)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Sure we can do that if they are there

[Thungrat (Master)] They are there

[Indigo (Lisa)] Then we will do that

Thungrat (Master) nods

Talwin (Michael) glances at Indigo. I don't see why that would be an issue. Assuming we live Ma'am. Is there anything we should know about them? Are they warded or trapped? We have no intention of invading your privacy, however we always have to be safe when transporting unknown goods.

Talwin (Michael) Should we plan on heavy chests Ma'am?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Hey! I just had a thought

[N'laea (Carissa)] (sorry got up for a second)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Just give them the chests without the goods?)

[Thungrat (Master)] There is quithe the ammounth tho move

[Indigo (Lisa)] Can turtles blow steam under water or is just when they come up for air?

N'laea (Carissa) to Talwin, "Because we do not need it."

[Talwin (Michael)] (I apologize, my dog needs to go out. I'll be back shortly)

Thungrat (Master) nods, Thath is their primary weapon, they use ith as they wish

[Master] Thungrat moved 4'01".

[N'laea (Carissa)] So if we bring back your treasure, you are fine if the dragon turtle dies?

Indigo (Lisa) looks sad "I was hoping it wouldn't work underwater"

Thungrat (Master) pulls out a book, the shelf lifts up and under in a secret compartment she draws out a large rolled up mat

[Indigo (Lisa)] They probably kill a lot of fish that way

[N'laea (Carissa)] But it gives us another way to potentially distract it

Thungrat (Master) carefully sets it all back

[Master] Thungrat moved 4'09".

Thungrat (Master) rolls out the mat

[Thungrat (Master)] (everyone can make an observation check or Intiution)

Thungrat (Master) pointing

[Thungrat (Master)] This is where the lair is

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo: INU check: (d20) [1d20=16] 16 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] Kenna Westfoot: INU check: (d20) [1d20=15] 15 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!

[N'laea (Carissa)] N'laea: INU check: (d20) [1d20=9] 9 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 15!!

[Thungrat (Master)] at the bothom of this pool

[Thungrat (Master) (to Spring only)] that is a bullywug hide

[Thungrat (Master) (to Carissa only)] that is a bullywug hide

[Indigo (Lisa)] (Michael? obs or Inu?)

[Thungrat (Master)] (he is AKF)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (oops forgot he is afk)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] hmmmmmm

[N'laea (Carissa)] Where the bullywugs are?

Thungrat (Master) points to two spots near the front

Kenna Westfoot (Spring) looks at N'laea knowingly

[N'laea (Carissa)] Do you often hide things inside the lair itself?

[Thungrat (Master)] Thath is where they wathch for ith tho come

Thungrat (Master) nods to N'laea my four chesths

N'laea (Carissa) thinks then pulls out the glass dagger from earlier

[N'laea (Carissa)] Just to check... is this one of yours?

Thungrat (Master) shakes her head No

N'laea (Carissa) nods and puts it away

[Thungrat (Master)] (to be clear that map is a tattoo on a skin)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Why doesn't the turtle eat the bullywugs?

[N'laea (Carissa)] I have not seen a bullywug carry one before. I did not know if they got it from your chests.

[N'laea (Carissa)] (oooooohh hide not hideout)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Do you often use bullywug hides for maps?

[N'laea (Carissa)] It has tanned well.

[Thungrat (Master)] The Thurthle does eath anything ith cathches

[Thungrat (Master)] They skins do well in the swamps

[N'laea (Carissa)] Have you tried to lure it before?

[Thungrat (Master)] Thath is how I sthored my chesths there

[Thungrat (Master)] How I know where ith lives

[Indigo (Lisa)] Why would you put them there when you couldn't get them back?

[N'laea (Carissa)] What do you use to lure it away?

[Thungrat (Master)] I can geth them as needed

Thungrat (Master) taps the bullywug hide

[Thungrat (Master)] Food is always a good lure

N'laea (Carissa) clearly thinking

[N'laea (Carissa)] We ran across some bullywugs earlier. Do you know where they're hideout is?

Thungrat (Master) points to one of the spots on the map

[Thungrat (Master)] Thath is one of their village guard posths

N'laea (Carissa) nods and takes note

[Thungrat (Master)] Anyone in thath parth of the swamps would wathch where the beasth moves

[N'laea (Carissa)] Who all knows of it then besides you and the bullywugs?

[Thungrat (Master)] No one knows everything

[N'laea (Carissa)] Of course not. Simply trying to have options and plans.

[Thungrat (Master)] I am certhain thath the bullywugs think they know more than they really do

N'laea (Carissa) smiles slightly, "As they normally do."

[N'laea (Carissa)] Your thoughts, Admiral?

[Talwin (Michael)] (I am back, My dog thanks you all for the pee break)

[Indigo (Lisa)] It's good we know where to go

[Indigo (Lisa)] Can we maybe borrow or buy a couple boats? Otherwise we can't carry the chests back

[Talwin (Michael)] Talwin: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=2] 2 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 11!!

[N'laea (Carissa)] We will need more healing, too, and a plan, either to attack soon or regroup at the church....

[Thungrat (Master) (to Michael only)] the map is tattooed onto a bullywug hide

[Indigo (Lisa)] We might want to get Branwyn if you want. She has a water breathing spell.

[N'laea (Carissa)] Oh, yes, that could certainly be helpful. I wonder how that feels...

[Thungrat (Master)] You have said you will go tho aththack ith so I have sold you the map in exchange for the chesths

[Thungrat (Master)] You can choose tho go where and when you wish

[Indigo (Lisa)] Thank you!

Thungrat (Master) look at Talwin

[Indigo (Lisa)] If she casts it you can spend half a day underwater.

[Thungrat (Master)] Whath would you like to pay for my word tho your miners thath they do noth need to worry?

[Talwin (Michael)] (I'm tying to parse what she said I apologize TMO)

[Thungrat (Master)] (I should apologize to Lisa for the horribleness of the spell check to come)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (go for it, take your time)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)

Talwin (Michael) Hesitates as if slightly unsure what Thungrat said, but not wishing to cause offense

Talwin (Michael) Bows deeply

[Talwin (Michael)] I f I understand what you are saying, are you asking what you need to pay to reassure our miners that they do not need to worry?

[N'laea (Carissa)] (it took me so long to realize she had a lisp and that you weren't just fumbling keys, lol)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I'm trying so hard to not cause offense, I just don't understand that last part)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (her real name is Tungrat)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (whooosh over my head until now, lol)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (she just can't pronounce it so that's what everyone calls her)

[Thungrat (Master)] Whath will you pay me tho reasure your miners thath they should sthay where they are

[Talwin (Michael)] (Help guys)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I feel stupid here)

[Talwin (Michael)] (She wants us to pay her to tell our miners to stay put?)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Is that it?)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (yeah I don't get it either)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (to reassure them that their families are fine)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (that they don't need to worry)

[Talwin (Michael)] (But...they aren't fine. They are dead)

[N'laea (Carissa)] You do not think us removing the turtle will be enough?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sigh)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (can we not reassure them for free)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (no, I think they're working on their secret machine)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (the machine we do but do not know about)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (oh is the machine gonna be the new turtle?0

[Thungrat (Master)] How long will ith thake you tho slay the beasth?

[Indigo (Lisa)] (yes Spring, I agree I think we can handle the reassurances)

Talwin (Michael) Pauses in thought. "While I can confidently say that we can reassure our own, I do not wish to strain relations. However, after our attack, I don't have what I used to. What were you thinking?"

[Thungrat (Master)] Are your miners happy tho sthay thath long

[N'laea (Carissa)] (don't think so... I think, best I can surmise, is that the miners are leaving to help with the machine, we discovered a monster to slay as something different, and that these are definitely intertwined somehow)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (it's not the miners who went missing - it was relatives of the miners)

[Talwin (Michael)] (If these gnomes ever need our help, I nickeling and diming them all the way to the bank. This is like infinite microtransactions)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (the miners wanted to go save their relatives)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Reassure them that we'll save their relatives? If they are dead...

[N'laea (Carissa)] (gnomes for ya)

Talwin (Michael) Frowns. "I agree N'laea"

[Indigo (Lisa)] Yes, if we tell the miners we will take care of it.

[Talwin (Michael)] With respect ma'am, if they are dead, your word will only stir them to anger when we slay the beast and cannot produce their slain family members

[Talwin (Michael)] This does not aid us

[Talwin (Michael)] And would anger them towards you

[Talwin (Michael)] I do not wish for either of our peoples to suffer from a misunderstanding

[Thungrat (Master)] If they believe they can assisth you and follow along

[Thungrat (Master)] You have seen how persisthanth the youth can be

Talwin (Michael) Passes a pouch with 10 gold pieces.

[Talwin (Michael)] This is all I have

[Talwin (Michael)] I am sorry

Thungrat (Master) picks up the pouch

[Talwin (Michael)] If this isn't enough, then just consider it a token of goodwill

[Talwin (Michael)] And say nothing

Thungrat (Master) takes out one coin

Thungrat (Master) hands the rest over to Indigo

[Thungrat (Master)] Go pay for their funerals

[N'laea (Carissa)] Assistance could be a good thing...

Talwin (Michael) Requests a gold coin from indigo

[Thungrat (Master)] There are thwo young gnomes waithing tho follow you I am certhain

[Talwin (Michael)] (Since she passed it back to you)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (brb)

[Carissa] I am away from the keyboard.

[Thungrat (Master) (to Lisa only)] she was indicating to pay for the funerals of the missing gnomes

Talwin (Michael) Passes the coin back to Thungrat. "For allowing us safe stay while we met with you. I cannot say I understand your culture completely, however we wish no ill will or relations in the future. If you need future aid, you may ask and we will do what we can to assist. We will pay for their funerals when we resupply at the protectorate"

[Talwin (Michael)] (A coin)

Talwin (Michael) Now, my knees ache, if you do not mind, May I step outside?

Thungrat (Master) passes it back to Talwin

Talwin (Michael) Frowns at the coin

Talwin (Michael) Makes no move to take

[Thungrat (Master)] There is no need for a donathion

Talwin (Michael) Shrugs

[Thungrat (Master)] You have done thath already

[Talwin (Michael)] Then save it for a rainy day

Thungrat (Master) holds up the one coin

[Talwin (Michael)] You've aided us, let us aid you

[Indigo (Lisa) (to Master only)] I did not get that

[Talwin (Michael)] Surely you would not deny a gift with no strings attached

[Indigo (Lisa)] We might need the gold

[Indigo (Lisa)] That's a lot Talwin

[Talwin (Michael)] (Yeah, we have 9 more)

[Thungrat (Master)] You will need thath tho help you geth whath you need tho go afther the beasth

Talwin (Michael) Sighs [Talwin (Michael)] Alright

Talwin (Michael) Thank you

Talwin (Michael) Slides it back into pouch

[Talwin (Michael)] Come visit us sometime

[Talwin (Michael)] We'd love to show you our markets

[Talwin (Michael)] or mines

[Thungrat (Master)] If you succeed then you will have more than you can carry

[Talwin (Michael)] if you ever need work

[Talwin (Michael)] for your people

Talwin (Michael) Smiles

[Talwin (Michael)] perhaps

[Thungrat (Master)] The fair ath Foriso Thown is nice

[Talwin (Michael)] (OK, I’m taking a short break from speaking LOL)

Talwin (Michael) Smiles. I was not there, but heard wonderful things. Supposedly there was candy

[Talwin (Michael)] (KLoOge is acting up. Test?)

[Thungrat (Master)] (yes)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (yar)

[Master] I will empty and refill brb

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[Talwin (Michael)] (Thanks)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Just a bit of lag I guess)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (sorry work zapped me for a minute)

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Indigo (Lisa)] N'laea, will you be the keeper of the map?

[Indigo (Lisa)] (I am hitting all the afk people tonight)

[Master] chuckles

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (heh)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (so we all go out and go to a safe place to fill Brer in?)

[Thungrat (Master)] There is a small ruin justh north of here

[Indigo (Lisa)] Ruin?

[Thungrat (Master)] They will show you

[Thungrat (Master)] A good place tho camp

[Indigo (Lisa)] Thank you!

[Indigo (Lisa)] Wait. Are there ghosts?

[Thungrat (Master)] Only haunths

Indigo (Lisa) smiles "okay"

[Master] Thungrat moved 4'05".

[Master] Thungrat moved 10'07".

[Thungrat (Master)] I do noth need to thell you thath you cannoth thell anyone where you goth the map from

[Thungrat (Master)] I thrusth your word Admiral

Thungrat (Master) as she waits at the door to open it for you

[Indigo (Lisa)] Of course

[Master] Thungrat moved 1'11".

[Indigo (Lisa)] We won't

[Master] and a burst of sound for Brer as chairs scrape

[Master] and you hear Indigo say.... "Thank you"

Brer Necholas (TMO) steps back and turns to look at the door.

[Master] Thungrat moved 3'08".

[Master] Skarphedin moved 40'03".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 42'09".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Talwin moved 39'02".

[Thungrat (Master)] Gninthick thake them to the ruins for their base camp

[Gninthick (Master)] How did she know I was here?

[Gninthick (Master)] Yes Mamn

[Jisthaock (Master)] Of course!

Thungrat (Master) shakes her head and goes back inside

[Indigo (Lisa)] Ohhh graves and everything

[Indigo (Lisa)] (hey!)

[Bullywug guard (Master)] There is your map

[Indigo (Lisa)] (wrong map)

Lisa is receiving the map north of Gnome Fishing Village...

Lisa has received the map north of Gnome Fishing Village.

[Master] So you can get the Bullywug Guard Post icon to look at the map on the bullywug hide

Spring is receiving the map Swamp 1...

Spring has received the map Swamp 1.

[Master] and this is where you are camping on your push out into the swamps

Spring is receiving the map north of Gnome Fishing Village...

Spring has received the map north of Gnome Fishing Village.

Indigo (Lisa) looks at the boys "Thanks for bringing us. Sorry we kept you from doing your important things."

[Jisthaock (Master)] We can stick with you

[Jisthaock (Master)] and do important things with you

[Indigo (Lisa)] I think you should go to your swamp monster

[Jisthaock (Master)] I thought that is what you are doing?

[Indigo (Lisa)] No. We might need to go back to Skull Church too.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Depends

[Jisthaock (Master)] (Carissa is out for a short bit, she will attempt to return)

[Jisthaock (Master)] Oh

[Jisthaock (Master)] well I have never seen that before

[Jisthaock (Master)] how big of a skull is it?

[Jisthaock (Master)] that they made a church out of it?

[Indigo (Lisa)] It sits on the skull like a crown

[Jisthaock (Master)] WOW

[Jisthaock (Master)] so like a Titan or something

[Jisthaock (Master)] That is cool

Gninthick (Master) THWAP

[Gninthick (Master)] TWHAP

[Gninthick (Master)] You idiot

[Gninthick (Master)] Did you ever listen in classes?

[Indigo (Lisa)] But I'm running out of biscuits so you should go home and we'll come and get you if we leave

[Gninthick (Master)] Just come back here

[Gninthick (Master)] We can come here every morning to check to see if you are back and if you need anything

[Indigo (Lisa)] That would be really nice!

[Master] Time of Day: 09:26 AM. Day 11 Trall ___ tre, Bel {Mid Fall} 11th, 349 SKR.

[Gninthick (Master)] Glad to help Admiral

[Indigo (Lisa)] You are very good scouts. I'm glad you are helping

[Indigo (Lisa)] See you tomorrow then?

[Gninthick (Master)] Thank you Admiral

[Master] Jisthaock moved 23'05".

[Master] Gninthick moved 26'09".

[Master] Gninthick moved 30'04".

[Master] Jisthaock moved 3'11".

Indigo (Lisa) watches them go

[Indigo (Lisa)] Sorry Brer but we couldn't tell you everything until they left

[Master] Brer Necholas moved 11'09".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] That's okay.

[Master] Talwin moved 4'03".

[Master] Kenna Westfoot moved 0'11".

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] So, can you tell me what she said, or do we need to wait until we have more privacy?

Indigo (Lisa) explains what happened in the meeting and about the map that has to be a secret

[Indigo (Lisa)] (I think they are gone)

[Master] yes as far as you can tell

[Indigo (Lisa)] So we know where to find the turtle. And it is probably surrounded by bullywugs

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm.. wonder why the frogs stay?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I assume they'd get eaten a lot.

[Indigo (Lisa)] And we need to get 4 chests with a gnome sigil and bring them back to the village

[Indigo (Lisa)] That's what I said!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Although... if a dragon turtle is as smart as a dragon, it might have made a deal.

[Indigo (Lisa)] How do a bunch of big frogs live near a dragon turtle?

[Indigo (Lisa)] this turtle makes a lot of deals

[Indigo (Lisa)] Must be old

[Master] (you do get to keep everything else you find she said)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm..

[Indigo (Lisa)] So we probably need to get some boats

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Do we have what it would take to kill an old dragon turtle?

[Indigo (Lisa)] I dunno. She said food distracts it so maybe we make bullywug dinner for the turtle

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] well I have a mallet

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Any weaknesses?

[Indigo (Lisa)] I was hoping the steam wouldn't work underwater but she says it does

[Master] (if we only had a wheelbarrow)

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Ummm ... the parts that stick out of the shell?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] No, those are just the available targets, since we don't have anything that will go through the shell. And it's no weaker to weapons than anything else, I figure.

[Indigo (Lisa)] We might want to think about getting Branwyn. She has this breathe underwater spell that lasts a long time

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Mmm...

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Probably can't lure it onto land.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Unless we have a spell that can lift it?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] Ż\_(?)_/Ż

[Indigo (Lisa)] I dunno.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (looking)

[Master (to Lisa only)] sky hook

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I think heat resistance would protect from the steam, if we have any of that.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Turtles have to breathe air don't they? So they can't stay underwater all the time can they?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Do we know if it's a day or night creature?

[Master] it attacked you in the early evening

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Could be either, then. Either out early, or up late. Or uses both regardless.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Any way to talk to it, you think?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] If it's intelligent enough to make deals with the wugs, we might be able to as well.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] oh I have a horrible idea

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] it is the giant insect idea again, but what if the insect was in its food

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] and then became giant in the stomach

[Indigo (Lisa) (to Master only)] don't see how that works

[Indigo (Lisa)] Ick!

Indigo (Lisa) laughs

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] there is no reason for a creature to be armored on the inside

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Can you do that? I thought you had to see your target for that kind of magic?

[Master (to Lisa only)] just throwing out ideas on lifting things, would not lift the turtle

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] hmmm no, I think I can do it with an insect I know is there but do not see

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I could even do more than one at a time if we want that

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] It's definitely an idea. There's another way to gamble horribly. Make it swallow two different potions.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Never tried it myself, but heard about it.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I don't usually have a lot of potions on hand.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Pour the potions on a bullywug and get it to eat it?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sigh. Let's just plant about 10 Kilos of C4 in a bullywug, and let it be done)

[Talwin (Michael)] lol

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I think it has to swallow the potions directly - throwing the bottles in. But it could wind up helping the thing instead of harming.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Completely random.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] That'll be Plan Z

[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.

[N'laea (Carissa)] (back, sorry will catch up)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I have also just remembered that I can lower the level of water if we need to

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Admiral, you have sort of ... reputation, I'm afraid.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] For getting swallowed alive.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] And then cutting your way out.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] that is what made me think of the insect

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I would rather risk an insect than Indigo

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Oh, I'm not suggesting we do it on purpose.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] But, if it happens, what is it like, and how can we help? And can he actually hurt it worse from in there

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Again, not something I've ever done.

[Master] (Michael are you good? have to leave for work? any last requests or ideas?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] While he's thinking on that, Aunt Kenna, can your lower water spell affect the steam, do you think?

[Talwin (Michael)] (I'm not sure. I wish the best of luck guys. I think you guys have a good plan

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (what plan? :P)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I thought the potion one was good!)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (you don't know the potion miscibility table, do you? ;) )

[Talwin (Michael)] hehe

[Talwin (Michael)] I think this is a reasonable stopping point for me guys. Best of luck

[Talwin (Michael)] :)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (night)

[Talwin (Michael)] Take care!

Michael has left the game on Fri Feb 12 21:51:40 EST 2021

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] How much water can you lower? Enough to strand the turtle?

[Indigo (Lisa)] The turtle's covered in a shell I don't think I could cut out of that if it ate me. Which I hope it doesn't

Kenna Westfoot (Spring) thinking

Brer Necholas (TMO) points at Indigo. "Idea. Sneak close enough and try to climb inside the shell?"

[Indigo (Lisa)] Before it kills me again?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] "the depth can be lowered by up to 2 feet for every experience level of the priest. The water is lowered within a square area whose sides are10 feet long per caster level. Thus, an 8th-level priest affects a volume up to16 feet x 80 feet x 80 feet, a 9th-level caster affects a volume up to 18 feet x 90 feet x 90 feet, and so on."

Brer Necholas (TMO) chuckles. "All of these are 'before we die' ideas."

[Indigo (Lisa)] I think we need to think about how to get rid of all the steam

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] so yes, I think if the turtle is dependent on the water, I could clear the water out

[Indigo (Lisa)] (I have no clue how that translates into a swamp - requires more maths than I have)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Does it keep the water out, or will more water flow in to replace it?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] ( I think it's a Moses situation)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (only lowering instead of splitting)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] So that's a good way to get ourselves into flanking positions.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Beach it so it can't move as easily, and surround it.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I haven't come up with anything good for that steam though.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (still looking)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (wind servant, maybe?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Anything that can grant protection from heat, even if it's only on me, would do.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (wrap it up into a dust devil)

[Master] by the way the duration on the Lower Water is 1 turn (10 rounds) per level

[Master] Kenna is 9th level

[N'laea (Carissa)] I believe Raelynn has such a spell for heat, but you'd have to ask her.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (so it'd last a good long time, but I bet it wouldn't be immobile, just way slowed down

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (so it could thrash it's way back into water)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Too bad she's not here to ask.

[Master] so 90 feet by 90 feet of water lowered 18 feet down for 90 rounds

[Indigo (Lisa)] (brb)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (it might have been last Friday, but if we do regroup at skull church, she has a heat resistant spell that'll lower your damage up to 75%)

[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (that'd be nice)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I have a scroll of protection from magic, but I don't think that will help here.

[Master] So you have that plus the lower water plus the breathing underwater from Branwyn

[Master] just need a raft or three

[N'laea (Carissa)] (I thought we asked the gnomes for some)

[Master] you said you were going to ask them

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (bob - totally random question - does magic armor help with saving throws? I don't know why that just popped into my mind - we've never done it before that I can think of)

[Master] I will double check but I do not think so

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I don't either - I'm looking at my equipment and saw all the pluses on my armor and shield)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (he's already got good saves, so saving easier won't really help any. You can't double-down on a saving throw)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (for TMO if Brer is offering to be one of the melee: "The recipient of the spell gains a bonus of +3 to saving throws against such attack forms and all damage sustained is reduced by 50%; therefore, if the saving throw is failed, the creature sustains one-half damage, and if the saving throw is successful, the creature sustains only one-quarter damage. Resistance to fire lasts for one round for each experience level of the priest placing the spell.")

[Master] and no to adding to saves

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (entangle may help)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (we have plenty of vegetation in the swamp)

[Master] one thing to do tonight

[Master] are you going to go back to Skull Church?

[N'laea (Carissa)] (entangle could be good for it to get off that steam before we run into to kill; as long as the frontliners don't get entangled, too)

[Master] before heading into the swamps

Brer Necholas (TMO) chuckles. "Think Thistle will let me borrow her ring?"

[Master] are you going to try to find Branwyn before heading into the swamps

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (good question)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Her ring?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] The girl uses it to stand in campfires.

Brer Necholas (TMO) smiles.

[N'laea (Carissa)] (I mean we almost had a full party wipe.... we're more prepared now, knowing what we're against, but I feel more spell help would, er, help)

[N'laea (Carissa)] That sounds... without being hurt?

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Carissa] (for dragon fire and ring: saved against with a +4 bonus to the die roll, and all damage dice are calculated at -2 per die, but each die is never less than 1 in any event. As a rule of thumb, consider very hot fires as those that have a maximum initial exposure of up to 24 hit points, those of exceptional heat (25 or more hit points).)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Griff's nose would have helped.

[N'laea (Carissa)] If it helps, it could not hurt to ask.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (definitely exceptional, but that's damage Brer could tank)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (probably we should go back)

[Master] the goal is that next session you are out hunting and going after your quarry

[N'laea (Carissa)] (that plus the spell would make him able to withstand a bit, I think)

[Master] so we can get all the preliminary stuff done now

[N'laea (Carissa)] (N'laea has the HP, but she was really suppose to be range; Raelynn's spell can be used on two people)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Madame Elf, do you have any exceptional abilities we can plan to use? If you'll agree to help us still, of course.

[N'laea (Carissa)] N'laea.

[N'laea (Carissa)] If I had a clear view, I could likely shoot it from here.

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods. "I didn't want to butcher it."

[N'laea (Carissa)] You will not learn it if you do not try.

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

N'laea (Carissa) thinks and looks through her bag

[N'laea (Carissa)] Besides the robe, which has its limits...

N'laea (Carissa) pulls out a potion bottle and scroll, "Levitation and this... I do not know what it is. Raelynn was interested, but she has not had a chance to look at it."

[N'laea (Carissa)] (priest scroll; unidentified)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (wow so okay, I like a Moscow Mule. I am truly surprised because the ingredients sound scary together)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Does the potion only let you go up, or also move around?

N'laea (Carissa) shrugs, "I do not know. It was a gift from a mage. They said their spell was the same as this and they did not need it."

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (iirc, Fly is move around, Levitation is only up and down)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (and if I remember from Macbeth, a very slow up and down)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (like... 2 ft per round or something ridiculous)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] But if needed, it could be used to get you up into the air for an excellent vantage point to shoot arrows from.

N'laea (Carissa) nods

[N'laea (Carissa)] (could Kenna ID that scroll?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (was going to wait until later, but if it's useful, no reason to wait for Raelynn)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (Ż\_(?)_/Ż )

[N'laea (Carissa)] (lol it was a question for Bob)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Kenna's favorite response)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (it's a good one)

[Master] grins

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I don't have a spell for identifying things)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (I think it's just a spell priests recognize or something)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (priests canNOT have to go to a mage every time they find a priest scroll...)

[Master] you just have to open up the scroll to see what it is Mages cannot read Priest scrolls and vice versa

[N'laea (Carissa)] (or maybe they do and THAT's what they have that rift!)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] ( PAL or NTSC)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (VHS or Betamax)

[Master] grins

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (DOS or Unicode)

N'laea (Carissa) unfurls scrolls and squints at it trying to read it

[N'laea (Carissa)] (it was lvl 4 whatever it was)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I misread lvl 4 as M4)

[N'laea (Carissa)] ("Priest spell of (1d6) [1d6=4] 4 level)")

[N'laea (Carissa)] (lol)

Kenna Westfoot (Spring) peeks

[Master] Checking my notes

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Wish)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (I wish for wish, I wish for wish, I wish for wish)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (although a 4th level wish spell is... probably a knockoff. Like a monkey paw version. Do we really want that?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (We wish the dragon turtle would live forever)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (hehehe)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (as a goldfish)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (you get: a goldfish that's just as deadly and made of pure gold and therefore hard to kill)

[Master] sorry looking for the spell it is not in the database, hunting it down

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (oooo... rare!)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (also since we interpreted it as gold fish, we decided on the fish: it's a giant piranha)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (oooo possibly fancy!)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (hahaha)

[Master] It is Amber Prison

[Master] Elf Priest spell

[Master] Plant, 4th level

[N'laea (Carissa)] (We could make our own giant amber mosquito gem but with a turtle???)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] yeah I cannot read it. it is all elfy

[N'laea (Carissa)] (and then set it in the eye of the church to warn off others; I love this)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (probably not strong enough)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (don't ruin my dreams, TMO)

[Master] Yes you can Kenna

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (can't read)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (it's not in elvish?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (lmao also reading)

[Master] It is a Priest spell, Plant Sphere,

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I was about to say can't read elvish and then I remembered I can't read at all)

[Master] OH ahh that is a problem

[N'laea (Carissa)] (can N'laea at least read that much?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (I have no clue where rangers fall in the realm of magic and stuff)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (Kenna had to invent a type of hieroglyphics for her medical notes)

[Master] Nope only Protection Spell Scrolls are understood by anyone who can read

[Master] High enough level and Rangers get Priest spells

[N'laea (Carissa)] (N'laea has her first level of spells with animal and plant sphere)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (but not sure if that means she can read a priest scroll)

[Master] OH then she can read this one

[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.

N'laea (Carissa) shakes head, "I don't know many spells. Do you know of one called Amber Prison?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I do not know it but it sounds priestish

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] and elvish

N'laea (Carissa) nods and tucks it back into her pack

[N'laea (Carissa)] Nothing I could cast, anyways.

[Master] you can cast it from the scroll

[N'laea (Carissa)] (oh.... hmm, details)

[Master] OR save it and use it to learn this spell when she can cast 4th level spells

[N'laea (Carissa)] Or at least I have never tried.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I wouldn't unless we need to - Raerae could read it to add it to her repertoire of spells to cast at will)

[Master] or trade with another priest who can learn it etc.

[N'laea (Carissa)] (and/or save and give to Raelynn to also learn it)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (because for a ranger that's like level 2584 which is 2123123 years from now)

[Master] so from what I understand you want to go back to Skull Church for supplies and help

[Master] then come back here

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (that is my suggestion, yes)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I think that's probably wisest)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (yes I think we're all in agreement there....? speak now if not)

[Master] are you trying to convince anyone else to join the group on the mission? Raelynn and or?

[N'laea (Carissa)] (Branwyn, and maybe if we can still find a gnome illusionist? or two? or gnomes with other helpful skills?)

[Master] Lisa do you want Branwyn to come along?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I can try to recruit JTom again. ;) We've been a bit busy here)

[Lisa] she can

[Lisa] I was thinking the water breathing spell could be helpful for the lair that is probably in a cave and would take a lot of underwater time to inspect and clear out

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] ((heart react))

[N'laea (Carissa)] (yes, I didn't know she had that spell - could definitely be useful if she doesn't mind)

[Lisa] not at all

[Lisa] and so you would likely get Tiberius too

[Master] OK so for the interest of time compression I will say CLICK and you are back at Skull Church?

[Lisa] darling stay home while we go kill a big turtle

[N'laea (Carissa)] (lol yeah I did figure that might happen)

[Master] grins

[Lisa] yes please

[Master] OK

[Master] so

[N'laea (Carissa)] (for TMO: "Creatures of huge size or larger can shatter the umber prison in one round." so no, not useful here :) )

[Master] Time of Day: 07:26 PM. Day 12 Lad ___ tre, Bel {Mid Fall} 12th, 349 SKR.

[Master] not going to move all the icons around

[Master] but you are now all there at the church again

[Lisa] k

[Master] Branwyn and Snee have had some good conversations about the Protectorate

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (creating icons is what I've been doing in the background - while y'all were yakking with gnomes)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] <\]\]



[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)]

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (nvm hat was a misfire)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Kenna just exploded)

[Master] the group has been gone two days

[Master] one to get out there one to get back

[N'laea (Carissa)] (Sundown still down?)

[Master] He is deep in thought

[Master] in the new Shrine

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (a good place for uffish thought)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (Kenna can use all the rest of her spells for healing before we sleep maybe?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (yes please if possible)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (ok so it's the 12th ...)

[Master] Brer Necholas's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 71 (31) - Unharmed

[Master] N'laea's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 72 (29) - Unharmed

[Master] Talwin's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 56 (44) - Unharmed

[Master] Emerald's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 23 (11) - Unharmed

[Master] Skarphedin's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 56 (10) - Unharmed

[Indigo (Lisa)] (that's nice)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (whee!)

[Master] and then on the morning of the 13th she will have all her spells back

[N'laea (Carissa)] (yayyyy)

Indigo (Lisa) the group explains to the church group what happened in the swamp

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] ( forgot to get salty snacks)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (so not I am drunk and cannot drive and I have no salty snacks)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (BUT I have the makings of chaffles so maybe I will make some salty chaffles)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Branwyn, I have to talk to you later about ... something. But later.

[Indigo (Lisa)] So you have to come back with us so we can do underwater breathing and maybe help with the turtle too.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Not sure what the plan is.

[Master] Everyone is there

[Indigo (Lisa)] It won't take long since we know where it is and it isn't far so we'll be back again soon

[Indigo (Lisa)] And we know where the lair is so there will be huge amounts of treasures!

[N'laea (Carissa)] (yeah, just having issues again, but will let Indigo talk for now)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] we do not have a full-on plan, only ideas

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Dragon turtle. Like the one that killed Foriso.

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs sadly

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] like I can use entangle, and/or lower the water level, and/or use a wind servant to dust devil all the steam away

[Branwyn (Lisa)] In a swamp here. That is interesting. Surprising rather.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] No idea it was there?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But yes I can come.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] None at all!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Maybe it just moved in?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Do dragon turtles migrate?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have never really explored much of the wastes in that direction.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It's filled with goblins and the like and then there is just more swamps. I've never had much reason to travel that way

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Tiberius, would you like to see a dragon turtle? It will be very dangerous

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Promise?

Lord Tiberius (Master) grins

[Branwyn (Lisa)] oh yes. Unless we can't find it, it will be very much so

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] Good

Branwyn (Lisa) smiles

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] something to see and hit

[Lord Tiberius (Master)] not already dead

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Is Thistle here?

[Indigo (Lisa)] We got to figure out how not to get steam blasted. It's more like a dragon than a turtle

[Master] Carissa is AFK

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (boo)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (no, I'm here just... not for much longer, I think)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Except it's in the water and and doesn't fly. But other than that it's like a dragon

[Master] Thistle would not want to give up her magical ring

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (aww - but I suspected)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (lmao there you go, apparently)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (so do it now? bring her?)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (she's an NPC now)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Raelynn, do you not have a spell to help with steam?

[Indigo (Lisa)] (oh yes)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (no, still henchman, but also still a teenager who is holding grudges)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (ok)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (tl;dr working out what she is later)

[Master] Not a henchman to N'laea or Raelynn though

[N'laea (Carissa)] (correct)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (maybe one day, but definitely not right now)

[Master] would take convincing to go off and leave the wolves who have been all alone in the woods with Kel for months

[Master] and Shi could return at any day now

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (which oddly Branwyn might be able to convince her, but do you really want a teenager going towards a dragon turtle fight?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (yes, I know, writer's block is severe)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (no, I want to borrow her ring)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] :P

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Yes, Thistle, can I borrow your ring? No, you can't come, and you definitely listen to me so I'm sure you won't sneak after us, and you'll be nice and just give me the ring.)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] ( ;) )

[Master] it has been 6 months that she is "overdue" in Thistle's mind

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (yeah and the leg things has left her a little mopey, but ring would be nice just not sure how you'd convince her if she's even here)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas: Persuasion check: (d20) [1d20=3] 3 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 19!!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (wand would be nice, too, but alas, that's even farther out of reach)

[Master] OK then

[Master] So I will say that Thistle will go along with the group, "to help protect Indigo from being eaten"

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (oh dear, TMO, what have you done)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I was joking, but I didn't say that... whoops)

[Master] Howard is not going Lisa?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (sorry Carissa!!!)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (no he needs to stay to protect Snee :) )

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (and with your luck, I'll be on a plane next Friday and it won't matter, lol)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (fly on a Friday?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (earliest I told them I'd deploy)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (technically middle of next week)

[Master] Emerald moved 71'08".

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (coworker technically left on a Saturday so who knows)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (and no clue where?)

Lisa is receiving the map Swamp 1...

Lisa has received the map Swamp 1.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (no, but Texas is going to have three centers opening 2/22 so I have my fingers crossed they ask for help there and that's where I end up)

[Master] Raelynn's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 23 (16) - Unharmed

Raelynn (Carissa) to N'laea, "I am still mad at you, but yes, I do, and I could use somewhere more cheerful than... here."

[Master] so everyone is on the camping map who is going

N'laea (Carissa) nods, "Good. Wear this. And stay back. You would not have survived had you been with us earlier."

N'laea (Carissa) hands her the chainmail

[N'laea (Carissa)] It is too heavy for me anyways.

[Master] swimming in armor ?

[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)

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

[Indigo (Lisa)] (here, hold the anchor)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (it's the chainmail, no use for sneaking, hopefully Raelynn isn't swimming... and stays on a boat... ugh)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Brer as read the rules for walking on the bottom)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (whatever, she can hold on to it at least)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (don't make me think hard right now)

[Master] Characters wearing heavier armors (banded, splint, chain, etc.) cannot swim, though they can walk across the bottom at one third movement.

Raelynn (Carissa) carefully takes it

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Mmmm, maybe I'll a little less mad at you then.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I don't want to sink in it but I'll keep it close.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] If I need it.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] ....thank you

[Carissa] (I'll fix sheets later)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (what next Bob? Sundown? Or save him for when we have more time?)

[Master] Does Branwyn have what she needs?

[Master] Or are you going by the Manor on the way back to the swamps?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (that's the wrong way isn't it?)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (that would drag things out a lot)

[Master] time wise yes but I can click off the time

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I missed that where you said he was wasn't at the Church)

[Master] Sundown is coming along with you

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (so I was assuming he was nearby, like Raelynn)

[Master] So there will be chances to talk

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (oh, you were talking to Lisa still. my bad)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (it's a spell book question really - would she bring them everywhere she goes)

[Master] She came out here for a ceremony

[Master] but it is Skull Church and the Wastes

[Master] out of habit?

[Master] OR have them secure at home so nothing happens to them

[Carissa] I think this is where I call it. Kind of still don't want Thistle to go, but maybe we can just leave her safe on shore or something.

[Master] knowing they are only a day away

[Carissa] Anyways, sorry.

[Carissa] Night!

[Master] no worries Carissa

[Master] we will click through the rest tonight

[Indigo (Lisa)] (Goodnight Carissa!)

[Carissa] sounds good, you can all finish planning without me :)

Carissa has left the game on Fri Feb 12 23:08:22 EST 2021

[Master] Spring you are set right?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (I don't want to be responsible for Thistle getting hurt)

[Master] TMO is

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (but I goofed)

[Master] it was a very good roll

[Master] I think it is a question of anything in the party pack, storage, etc. that you want to take

[Master] and if Branwyn has her spell books here or goes to get them

[Lisa] we can do that

[Lisa] I could see her taking the big book and leaving the small one at home instead of taking everything

[Spring] oh yes, I am okay

[Spring] I have a few things, which I mentioned

[Master] does that mean you want to go back to the Manor Lisa?

[Spring] I am cooking also

[Lisa] either way

[Lisa] was looking at the potions at home and I'm not seeing a miracle there

[Lisa] potion of explosion - but would have to be thrown and hit farther then 60 ft away to be out of steam range, e.g.

[Lisa] so if doesn't matter to me. If you can say I would take my big book that would cover the most strange things that could happen I would be fine with just that one

[Master] I am good with that idea

[Master] hard to think she would not have any spell books with her

[Master] so then sleep the night of the 12th here in the Protectorate

[Master] then on the 13th travel around the northern track again to CLICK back to the base camp

[Lisa] I really have to move spells over - she is on 3 books now

[Master] chuckles

[Master] OK so the night of the 13th you are back at the base camp

[Master] and we can do encounters for that night there at the camp

[Master] Time of Day: 07:26 PM. Day 13 Ced ___ tre, Bel {Mid Fall} 13th, 349 SKR.

[Master] Raelynn moved 16'08".

[Master] N'laea moved 43'06".

[Master] Thistle moved 12'01".

[Master] Branwyn moved 10'01".

[Master] Lord Tiberius moved 12'03".

[Master] Sundown moved 11'07".

[Master] and pick up here next week?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] sounds good

[Master] Dragon Turtle? Party of 12?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Who's got the portable nuke?

[Spring] whee!

[Master] Indigo XP award: 175. Next level in 45477.

[Master] Kenna Westfoot XP award: 175. Next level in 160654.

[Master] Skarphedin XP award: 150. Next level in 11233.

[Master] Brer Necholas XP award: 150. Next level in 67130.

[Master] Talwin XP award: 250. Next level in 64383.

[Master] N'laea XP award: 175. Next level in 128099.

[Master] It will be fun

[Master] a grand battle next week

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Thanks for the game! I'll have to read the logs, because I was not paying attention while they were talking to the gnome, thinking that it would be a game of telephone of them trying to explain everything.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] :)

[Spring] hehehe

[Master] yeap

[Spring] gnite yáll!

[Master] and again sorry for the spell check horrors Lisa

Spring has left the game on Fri Feb 12 23:22:37 EST 2021

[Lisa] Goodnight

[Master] night

[Lisa] it's ok

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] g'nite

TMO has left the game on Fri Feb 12 23:22:51 EST 2021

[Lisa] weird picking spells from just the one book

[Master] chuckles

[Lisa] she will be handicapped

[Master] you can go to the Manor on the way

[Master] It adds two days but no encounters

[Lisa] no it's fine

[Master] ok

[Lisa] even if she had both the breathing spell is 3rd level

[Lisa] so for her to give it to 4 people means no fireballs or manyjaws

[Master] ok

[Master] and you have 12 people in the group overall

[Lisa] and no little book so no magic missile etc.

[Lisa] yeah but not everyone is going to be able to do it

[Lisa] unless a priest has the equivalent

[Master] There will need to be a little bit of tactical work

[Master] to make sure everyone is told what is possible what they SHOULD do

[Master] then just dive into it

[Lisa] literally

[Lisa] :)

[Master] grins

[Lisa] ok

[Lisa] goodnight!

[Master] night

Lisa has left the game on Fri Feb 12 23:27:31 EST 2021
