[Master] ==== Gaming session started: Thu Jun 10 21:36:47 EDT 2021 ====

[Master] Ryan texted me, he is taking a break for testing and classes, etc. He will be back for the Birthday Game is his plan

[Master] Spring is out tonight

[Master] Tonight will be at one of the mining encounters along with giving TMO a chance to further integrate his new character and if Carissa has additional things to do with her returned elves and perhaps soon to return elf

[Master] I am working away on Excel stuff and calendar stuff trying to pay attention here too

Spring has joined the game on Fri Jun 11 19:03:30 EDT 2021

[Master] Hello there!

[Master] Thought you were not going to be in

[Spring] hi! so, uhm change of plan

[Spring] I’m gonna drive in the morning instead

[Master] Glad

[Spring] I frankly forgot that I had meant to be out tonight and planned around the game lol

[Spring] but, it's better not to drive at night after a day of working anyway

[Master] nods

[Spring] I’ve been overworking myself, not at work but in getting the house set up

[Spring] so I need to slow it down a little

[Spring] I put the harness on the cat, so she probably knows there's a road trip about to happen

[Master] yes you do

[Spring] OMG the huge pieces of furniture I’ve been moving by myself!

[Spring] also yard work

[Spring] I had noodle arms after all the weed eating yesterday

Carissa has joined the game on Fri Jun 11 19:12:48 EDT 2021

[Spring] hi Carissa!

TMO has joined the game on Fri Jun 11 19:12:56 EDT 2021

[Spring] hi TMO!

[Carissa] Hi all!

[Spring] I was gonna miss tonight but wound up deciding to leave tomorrow instead

[Carissa] Woo!

[Master] Hello Carissa and TMO

[TMO] hi

[TMO] sry, had to hep da wiff a bit

[Master] I have a few things and I posted up above on what will happen tonight

[Spring] course I already forgot, scrolling up again

[Carissa] Yep just read. Returned elf has already returned. Not sure if we're done with Branwyn encounter is all.

[TMO] have read

[TMO] whereforth shall we beginnith? Do we wait for Lisa, or is it just us 3?

[Spring] Ż\_(?)_/Ż

[Master] you three plus Lisa and Michael

[Master] but I have the first cave ready for you

[Master] OR TMO take the floor

[Master] you can talk

[Master] you have an 8 month back and forth along the timeline to work with

[TMO] so, from what it sounded like, Branwyn wasn't interested in hiring Craigh as a full time librarian

[TMO] part time, maybe.

[TMO] "maybe"

[TMO] so, he'll need to set up some sort of shop to earn income with

[Master] I think that Branwyn is very wiling to take him in, but does not see him as an adventurer

[Master] hence Snee, etc. needing to learn more about him to know to say Hey we might want to bring Craigh along

[TMO] does book-binding include paper-making, or does the paper come pre-made?

[TMO] Craigh can certainly come visiting to learn what the needs of the new Protectorate are

[TMO] churches like their books. ;)

[Master] Paper making is a separate skill yes

[TMO] figures

[TMO] ;)

[Craigh (TMO)] it was Kenna he met last time, not Snee, iirc

[Master] yes

[Craigh (TMO)] (just making sure - it's been a couple of Weeks)

[Craigh (TMO)] (how long does it take to walk from Dragon Fen to Skull Church?)

[Spring] I thought it was like 2 days

[Master] yes

[Master] 2 days until the new path is finished

[Spring] it'll be better when hahahaha

[Spring] what he said

[Carissa] 1 day when finished?

[Carissa] :P

[Craigh (TMO)] (well, he's not making that trip by himself at this point. he doesn't know the area and would get lost. So, how should he get there?)

[Craigh (TMO)] (hitch along with a supply caravan?)

[Master] you can make that trip

[Master] it is Fairly Safe

[Master] Mostly Safe

[Carissa] Want Thistle to drag him?

[Carissa] Can always find a reason for her to do things

[Craigh (TMO)] (whatever works)

[Carissa] And if she's been back, I'd think she'd have met Craigh by now? Maybe?

[Carissa] (one sec then yes can think of something if that works for you)

[Carissa] (just need water)

[Craigh (TMO)] ( we can do the meet)

[Craigh (TMO)] (Kenna is still here, so that can be the 3 of us)

[Carissa] (would this be close to when he arrived or maybe a few weeks later?)

[Master] time is fuzzy right now so you can make what you wish of that

[Thistle (Carissa)] (just timing her off if Shi was back yet :) )

[Thistle (Carissa)] Are we leaving yet?? I don't want to be too long!

[Craigh (TMO)] Leaving where?

[Thistle (Carissa)] We're going to the church! Kenna said she had to go do something for Snee and I have to tell of Sundown!

Craigh (TMO) looks confused. "You have to tell the ... sundown?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] (I didn't finish that sentence and don't know what I meant, lol)

[Craigh (TMO)] Is that a ritual or something? I've never heard of it.

[Thistle (Carissa)] No, he's just a stuck-up jerk BUT I can't wait to tell him he's wrong!!

[Craigh (TMO)] The sundown?

[Spring] sorry was feeding pupper doggos

[Thistle (Carissa)] His name is Sundown. Weird, right??

[Craigh (TMO)] OH. A person. Named "Sundown"?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Weird, right?!??

Craigh (TMO) nods. "I've heard stranger, I suppose. But usually in the cities, not out in the frontier like here. But there's oddities everywhere."

[Craigh (TMO)] (I've just realized I don't know any city names for Drillian)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Uh huhhhh

Thistle (Carissa) clearly keeping her mouth shut looking at his arm

[Master] make it up

[Craigh (TMO)] (the only cities are outside Drillian)

[Thistle (Carissa)] ANYWAYS are you ready yet??

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Jun 11 19:44:48 EDT 2021

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (hi Lisa!)

[Craigh (TMO)] (Seriously? NO ONE has ever been to a city in Drillian???)

[Craigh (TMO)] O_o

[Lisa] Hello!

[Craigh (TMO)] (HI!)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Hi!)

[Lisa] I did not get a text

[Craigh (TMO)] (I had more caps in mine than she did)

[Master] there are no real cities in Drillian

[Craigh (TMO)] (ok)

[Craigh (TMO)] (just larger and smaller landowners)

[Master] exactly

[Craigh (TMO)] (ok)

[Craigh (TMO)] Wait, I'm going somewhere? When was someone going to tell me?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] thistle was trying to tell you

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] or ask you

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] with thistle it can be hard to tell the difference

Craigh (TMO) smiles. "Apparently. Well, one minute, and I can be ready I suppose. I've got nothing more important to do. Uh... how long will we be gone?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah! Why do you think I kept trying to pull you to the door??

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm, hopefully not long?

[Craigh (TMO)] (I haven't done his equipment yet apparently)

[Craigh (TMO)] (no biggie)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Kenna had important business for Snee, "adult" stuff but she said it wouldn't take long!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Probably boring talking or something

[Thistle (Carissa)] And you needed to see the church! It has books!!

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] indeed, I need to work with the Governor on a few things

Craigh (TMO) goes and gets a few things - a travelling cloak, better boots, and a walking stick, among other trivialities)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol blanking on exacts, but this works)

[Master] Lisa Indigo or Howard would be part of this

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] itis two days there, we'll stay overnight one or two nights, and then two days back here

[Lisa] (no clue what is happening - tell me who is there and that's fine)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah! I need to get back to the forest! Shi told me to go because I'm "suffocating her" but I can't be gone too long or she might disappear again!

[Craigh (TMO)] Sounds good to me. Is this the famous 'Skull Church' I've heard of?

[Thistle (Carissa)] (whoever wants to go with Craigh to introduce him to the others at Skull Church)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (just RPing in Craigh for the others intro)

[Craigh (TMO)] Or the Temple out in the woods?

Thistle (Carissa) suspicious, "What do you know about temple?"

[Craigh (TMO)] Only that there is one.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh. Okay. No, we're going to the one that looks like a skull and while that one HAS skulls, it doesn't look like one.

Thistle (Carissa) shrugs, "They wolves like to add skulls for decoration."

Craigh (TMO) looks at Kenna for an explanation (if there is one) for the interior decorating wolf pack.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I totally don't remember anything like that)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (there's a temple?)4

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol it's on the site, not sure anyone would know besides Shi/Thistle/wolves)

[Thistle (Carissa)] ANYWAYS let's GOOOO

[Craigh (TMO)] (Shi made one)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Are you coming? HOWARDDDD!! BOOKS!!

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (right, okay then)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (not sure who you decided, feel free to have Howard reject in place of Indigo)

[Craigh (TMO)] (I'd thought it was an open temple for the Dragon Fen residents, but maybe not)

[Lisa] (why are they not in the protectorate now anyway? didn't they just kill a bunch of goblins?)

[Lisa] (I’m confused)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (no, more of a if elves heard about it but not open)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (...oh duh)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (I'm the one confused, never mind)

[Lisa] (or did we time jump all of us 8 months?)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh wait. I forgot he left. Sometimes I forget about him...

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (something about time? were somewhere in an 8-month blob)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (fuzzy on time, this is anywhere in that 8 months of time passage)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (just basic RP to introduce Craigh to the rest of the group)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Bob said not to worry about specifics)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Thistle was just giving Craigh a reason to go to Skull Church; you can have whoever you want to be there instead)

[Lisa] (that's fine)

[Thistle (Carissa)] OKAY WE'RE GOING NOW!

[Craigh (TMO)] I'm ready! I'm ready!

Thistle (Carissa) starts pulling on Craigh to get them moving until time jump I guess

[Craigh (TMO)] Hey, hey! I kinda need that arm!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I'm here. There is no need for shouting indoors

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Inside voices

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH! LET'S GO THEN!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Er, let's go then!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] /sighs

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] alright I have everything I need

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] can I help anyone? are we set?

[Master] (everyone healed)

Craigh (TMO) nods to Howard. "Hello there."

[Howard Plum (Lisa) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Howard Plum modified: Spells - CHANGED: Magic Missile -- # Memorized: 2 (3), CHANGED: Read Magic -- # Memorized: 1 (0),

[Thistle (Carissa)] Less talking, more walking!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Hello. I am Howard.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Apprentice to Branwyn

[Thistle (Carissa)] He's been away doing things. "Important" things apparently.

[Craigh (TMO)] Nice to meet you Howard. I'm Craigh.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (we can walk AND talk. I’ve seen it on TV a lot)

Craigh (TMO) offers his hand to shake.

[Master] LOL Spring

Howard Plum (Lisa) shakes hand

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (lol Spring)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (love those West Wing single take hallway shots)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] You are another apprentice?

Craigh (TMO) follows the group out the door.

[Craigh (TMO)] Uh, no, I'm afraid not.

[Craigh (TMO)] That would have been nice, but no.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] That is likely why you are still here.

Craigh (TMO) smiles. "Teaching is hard work."

[Thistle (Carissa)] Learning, too!

[Craigh (TMO)] True. Very true.

[Craigh (TMO)] What is it you're trying to learn?

Thistle (Carissa) shrugs, "You know... stuff."

Craigh (TMO) glances at the others.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Like... being better at spotting traps. Not that I CAN'T DO that. Because I can! Really! But if I couldn't do it well, I'd want to get better at it.

Craigh (TMO) nods. "That can be hard, I understand. Especially since they inconsiderably try to hide them."

[Thistle (Carissa)] Exactly!! And I wanna get better with locks so I don't cut my fingers off like Lanek did that one time!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Or jam them! He kept jamming them!

[Craigh (TMO)] (apparently I also haven't finished his skills)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (I seriously don't remember that)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol Skull Church, every time she failed after him she'd blame him)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (that part I remember)

[Thistle (Carissa)] So I gotta learn some more stuff.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (but I don't remember finger loss)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (and the trap that cut his hand, didn't exactly slice it off)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (but Thistle will exaggerate)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (oh whew)

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] it is important to keep learning, even for me

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I have learned my discipline to the very end of what we know about the healing arts, so now I must research to find more

[Thistle (Carissa)] More what?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] some promising things with mold

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] more things that heal. more ways

[Thistle (Carissa)] I thought you just *jazz hands* then they are healed?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] that is the basic, yes, but we cannot always rely upon divine powers

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] some situations remove the possibility

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] and of course, fatigue

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] but now I can heal with food as well

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I have studied much

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah you're really good at cooking! Have you tried her food yet, Craigh??

Craigh (TMO) grins lopsidedly. "Where were you when I needed you a few years ago?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] Um, don't tell Jilly I said that because she might get insulted.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] jilly is truly an artist with food

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] it is a very different discipline. I give healing, she gives joy

[Thistle (Carissa)] She keeps trying to teach me, but I don't really want to learn that.

[Craigh (TMO)] (those skills don't look right - I'm going to have to go through the notes I did with Bob and confirm things)

[Master] Good Enough for Tonight

[Craigh (TMO)] (my thoughts exactly

[Craigh (TMO)] Food can be as much an art as anything else

[Thistle (Carissa)] Indigo really loves food. Have you talked to him yet?? He's been busy helping with the mines...

[Craigh (TMO)] I met him briefly my first day here.

[Craigh (TMO)] And Lord Tiberius mentioned him when he helped me move my gear.

Craigh (TMO) is having trouble walking at speed and talking at the same time.

[Craigh (TMO)] (he slighted stamina to get moderately useful con and not dismal muscle. ;) )

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (did we bring a wagon?)

[Master] lol

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: FIT check: (d20) [1d20=8] 8 - ROLL FAILED against 7!!

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (everybody slow down, we are losing the new guy!)

[Master] He is fine, just noticeably not as sustainable as what the group typically thinks of when someone wants to be an adventurer

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (says the halfling with a move of 6)

[Craigh (TMO)] (that's why he has the walking stick)

[Craigh (TMO)] (yeah Bob, but definitely don't ask him to carry anything bulky)

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: STAM check: (d20) [1d20=15] 15 - ROLL FAILED against 3!!

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (slow down a little mor!!)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (3? )

[Craigh (TMO)] (THREE)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lmao)

Howard Plum (Lisa) blows on Craigh to watch him fall over

[Craigh (TMO)] (when he needed help moving his bag of books, *he needed help moving his bag of books*)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (ok)

[Craigh (TMO)] (chuckle)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (he is delicate)

[Craigh (TMO)] (that's what happens when you start with a 5)

[Craigh (TMO)] (he got his muscle up to 7 at least, so he can lift something, just not carry it any distance)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (don't toss him in water or he might drown)

[Craigh (TMO)] (can't swim)

[Craigh (TMO)] (only 1 arm, no strength, no body fat)

[Master] Oh Man

[Craigh (TMO)] (it's called 'being careful')

Craigh (TMO) exhales deeply. "So, I knew Dragon Fen was new, but I wasn't expecting quite this much ... wilderness."

[Craigh (TMO)] And swamp.

[Master] brb emptying and refilling

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[Craigh (TMO)] I guess it's the difference between hearing 'it's new' and seeing it for myself

Kenna Westfoot (Spring) nodding. lots of swamp. a little desert. some forest here and there

[Thistle (Carissa)] Wilderness?

Craigh (TMO) gestures around them with his stick. "Wilderness."

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Putting Dragon Fen here suited Branwyn and was less threatening to the established nobility

Craigh (TMO) nods. "I can understand that. I'm just more accustomed to town life, I guess. I'll adjust, I'm sure."

[Thistle (Carissa)] Towns are boring. People yell at you for not wearing shoes or...or trying to bring a wolf with you or shouting loudly at nothing.

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Craigh (TMO)] You just need to know how to talk to them.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Or at everything

Thistle (Carissa) grins at Howard

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Have you visited the Jistille Estates? It is not a big town but there are estates close by to visit if you are bored at Dragon Fen

Craigh (TMO) shakes his head. "I've been there a couple of times, but I don't think I'll be bored here. I'm pretty good at keeping myself busy."

[Thistle (Carissa)] Like going on adventures?? There's lot of adventures to go on!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I thought you were a book mender

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Do you wish to go on adventures?

[Craigh (TMO)] That's how I earn a living, yes. But I enjoy a little thrill sometimes too.

[Craigh (TMO)] Probably very tame compared to what you're used to though.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Like killing goblins?? We've done that a few times!

[Craigh (TMO)] There haven't been too many goblins in the towns I frequented, fortunately. The occasional thug or low-life, that sort of thing. Of course, travelling between towns always has some element of risk.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ummm, no offense 'cause I was told I shouldn't say anything but... how DO you take care of, er, thugs? 'Cause... it doesn't look like it'd be easy?

[Master] You all arrive at Skull Church

Craigh (TMO) chuckles.

[Craigh (TMO)] Wow.

[Craigh (TMO)] How old is it?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Depends who you ask.

[Pete (Master)] Welcome back Kenna

[Thistle (Carissa)] The elves and dwarves say not that old.

[Pete (Master)] Thistle are you staying this time?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Which I think means REALLY old

[Thistle (Carissa)] No, am I suppose to?

Craigh (TMO) leans on his stick a bit, catching his breath and looking at the church.

[Pete (Master)] the last time you were here you said you were not coming back, you were staying in the Valoris Wood

[Thistle (Carissa)] YEAH! WHERE'S SUNDOWN SO I CAN TELL HIM HE'S WRONG??

Craigh (TMO) flinches away from the yell.

[Sundown (Master)] Wrong about what this time?

[Thistle (Carissa)] You're wrong! WRONG WRONG WRONG! You're were WRONG!!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Shi IS real AND she came back AND you're not nice!

Craigh (TMO) glances again at the other adults.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] Thank you Pete

Sundown (Master) raises an eyebrow

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I am so tired, sorry

[Sundown (Master)] She is back?

[Thistle (Carissa)] No. SHI.

Thistle (Carissa) leans over to Craigh to loudly whisper, "That's Sundown. Real person. Often a jerk."

[Sundown (Master)] So Shi is back but She has not been seen by anyone except you?

Craigh (TMO) stands up, leans his stick against his shoulder and offers his hand. "Sundown, good to meet you. I'm Craigh, new to these parts."

Sundown (Master) shakes Craigh's hand

[Sundown (Master)] Good to meet you

[Thistle (Carissa)] And Branwyn!

Sundown (Master) looks around for Branwyn

Thistle (Carissa) rolls eyes, "She's not here right now."

[Sundown (Master)] At least I know Branwyn exists

[Thistle (Carissa)] She's doing Branwyn things.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] He knows Branwyn is real

[Thistle (Carissa)] Whatever. I just came to tell you that you're wrong.

[Craigh (TMO)] Apparently it was very important she do that.

[Thistle (Carissa)] And 'cause Shi said I'm suffocating her or something.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah 'cause Sundown doesn't think he's wrong but he's usually wrong but ESPECIALLY about this.

[Craigh (TMO)] I can guess I'm going to be wrong a lot too.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Well, you're an adult, so probably. But no one is as wrong as Sundown.

Kenna Westfoot (Spring) smiles

[Craigh (TMO)] Congratulations, I guess, Sundown?

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] everyone is wrong about something at some time

[Sundown (Master)] I take it as a compliment that my standing in the world is still steady

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] I will grant you it is strange to disbelieve in the existence of a whole person, but that is fine

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I think Sundown has been more open to elves now that he has known N'laea and Raelynn

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] everyone has something

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH! That's right. I was going to also tell them Shi was back.

[Thistle (Carissa)] But I can do that later.

[Craigh (TMO)] 3 elves in the same place? That's pretty rare, isn't it?

[Sundown (Master)] I have never seen it

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Four if you count Kel

[Thistle (Carissa)] Well Raelynn is and isn't an elf or something? And then there's Kel

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH!

[Thistle (Carissa)] AND NIEVEN! But I'm not suppose to say anything.

[Thistle (Carissa)] ('cause I haven't written that yet)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (sorry - work was insane this week - will write tomorrow)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol no worries)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (enough written to just pretend it all happened by now :) )

[Craigh (TMO)] I can see I'm going to have to try and pick up a few words of elven.

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH! And then there was Finny, but he left for somewhere? And I think Ilero has an elf in his guild or something!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh oh! I can help you!!

Craigh (TMO) leans close to Howard and whispers, "Do I want to learn the words she's liable to teach me?"

Craigh (TMO) says to Thistle, "Thank you."

Thistle (Carissa) grins

[Thistle (Carissa)] Shi said I'm getting better so I bet I'm a good teacher now.

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Will you be joining us for services?

[Thistle (Carissa)] (shows up as ??? if that's not on purpose)

Howard Plum (Lisa) chuckles "Her teachers would not teach her wrongly. You can trust that because Thistle is not left to her own devices"

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Will you be joining us for services?

Craigh (TMO) looks to the others to see their reactions before responding. "Unless we're leaving immediately, I'm game. You've certainly got atmosphere for it here."

Baron Thogood (Master) smiles

[Baron Thogood (Master)] offers Craigh a dagger

Craigh (TMO) juggles his stick a bit and takes it.

Thistle (Carissa) whispers, "They're boring. I usually sneak away before they start or right after they start."

Craigh (TMO) looks at the dagger. Ceremonial, ritual, or steak knife?

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Do you accept that Pain is the way to achieve completeness?

[Craigh (TMO)] I mean, it's not my favorite path, but if it works for you, why not?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ummm

[Thistle (Carissa)] Kippippopopopoto or whatever her name is is... um, a choice of a sort.

[Thistle (Carissa)] She likes disfigurement.

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, then they'll love me.

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH! SORRY! I wasn't supposed to say anything.

[Baron Thogood (Master)] our Lady blesses those who can withstand the existence of pain

Craigh (TMO) chuckles.

[Baron Thogood (Master)] as proof that we are part of the physical world

[Baron Thogood (Master)] and we hope to transcend

Craigh (TMO) uses the dagger to shrug his cloak off his left shoulder to show his stub.

[Craigh (TMO)] Apparently I've already been indoctrinated.

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Branwyn the Blessed is emblematic of her blessings,

Baron Thogood (Master) warm smile

Thistle (Carissa) tries to not stare but clearly thinks it's acceptable now

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Yes my son you seem to have the Lady's blessing

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Have you been under her eye for very long?

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, that's looking on the bright side, I guess. But sure. Oh, and a few years now.

[Craigh (TMO)] Long enough I've mostly adjusted to it.

[Baron Thogood (Master)] We all adjust to our blessings

[Baron Thogood (Master)] it is what we do with them that becomes important

[Baron Thogood (Master)] I am glad to see you join our company

[Craigh (TMO)] I just want to point out that I'm keeping my other arm.

[Craigh (TMO)] I'm not interested in being *that* blessed.

Howard Plum (Lisa) smiles

[Baron Thogood (Master)] I will not decree what the Lady requires of her devotees

[Craigh (TMO)] Thank you. Oh, I'm Craigh, by the way. Newly arrived in Dragon Fen, learning my way around.

Craigh (TMO) isn't sure if priests shake hands or not.

Baron Thogood (Master) bows to Craigh

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Welcome my son

[Craigh (TMO)] Do I keep the dagger until the services, or do you need it back?

[Baron Thogood (Master)] It is yours to use as you feel the need

[Baron Thogood (Master)] Howard here has his own abilities to assist you if you need more

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, thank you. First time I've been offered a dagger for going to church. This'll be a very interesting experience.

[Craigh (TMO)] (standard dagger, or anything special about it, style or whatever?)

[Master] standard dagger

[Craigh (TMO)] (roger)

[Master] and allowing the group to continue with things and you can imagine what the service was like as Snee etc. would not be attending

[Master] and the meeting afterwards with everyone

[Master] no word from Michael yet

[Master] but I do have a mining thing for you to also visit tonight

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (nor would Kenna)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (thought he said he wasn't coming)

[Craigh (TMO)] (he did say he might not be able to make it)

[Master] OK then we will to expect him

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (schoolwork avalanche)

[Master] and so

[Master] your group is here

[Master] and have checked my phone and see all the updates, thank you

[Master] I leave it to Spring and Carissa to force TMO into bringing Craigh to tell more about who he is and what he can do to help

[Master] Brer is here also by the way

[Craigh (TMO)] (strong and silent vs weak and chatty

[Master] want you to have a moment then I will bring out the gnome with the problem

[Thistle (Carissa)] (it'll be gnome problem for us)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (lol)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (one of these days you need to show us a gnome without a problem)

[Craigh (TMO)] (being a gnome *is* a problem)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol)

[Thistle (Carissa)] So how DID you take care of the thugs, Craigh??

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (force what? )

[Master] I have a plan for that Lisa, grins

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (Craigh to tell his secrets)

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, that. Well, first of all, try not to get noticed or deflect them. If that doesn't work, then you have to go a bit more drastic.

[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (my pain is super distracting right now, gonna take something)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (tequila?)

Craigh (TMO) looks for a tree. "Let's see if I can do this..."

[Master] hah

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (I'm sorry though Spring)

Craigh (TMO) unsheathes the dagger, dropping the sheath on the ground.

[Craigh (TMO)] Hmm.

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Attack: Dagger/Dirk, hurled: (20-(d20+0)) [1d20=2] 18

[Craigh (TMO)] Nope!

[Master] miss

[Craigh (TMO)] Drat. Now I have to go find it.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm, didja need me to teach you how to throw daggers, too?

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, I know *how*, but everybody misses sometimes.

[Craigh (TMO)] I'm no whirling dervish of blades, secretly cutting everyone's throats in the night.

[Thistle (Carissa)] I think that's frowned upon.

[Craigh (TMO)] Or whatever it is they write about in the cheap plays.

Craigh (TMO) goes over to find his dagger.

[Thistle (Carissa)] What about your walking stick? Is it a secret sword? Can you stab people with it??

[Thistle (Carissa)] Does it talk????

Craigh (TMO) hands her the stick before he goes.

[Craigh (TMO)] (it's a stick)

Thistle (Carissa) squints at it

[Thistle (Carissa)] Hello? Are you a talking stick or just a walking stick?

[Craigh (TMO)] (straight and good for using as leverage whilst walking)

Thistle (Carissa) taps it

Craigh (TMO) comes back with his dagger and slides it into the sheath on the ground using his foot as a brace, then stands back up and slides it into a pocket.

Thistle (Carissa) hands him back the stick

[Thistle (Carissa)] That's a boring stick. What else can you do??

[Craigh (TMO)] Thank you. Just a stick, I'm afraid.

[Craigh (TMO)] Act, talk, rope, I know how to get useful bits out of animal carcasses, repair books, read books. Nothing spectacular.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oh! I know how to tie a really good knot!

[Thistle (Carissa)] And read fortunes and... OH I WAS SUPPOSED TO READ BRER'S FORTUNE.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oops.

[Craigh (TMO)] Brer?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah! The paladin with the missing eye! Kinda like your missing... ummm, yeah!

[Thistle (Carissa)] He's around somewhere.... I think...

[Craigh (TMO)] (apparently I've a 'type')

[Thistle (Carissa)] (anyone else feel free to be talkative; Thistle is just being Thistle until a gnome shows up or someone else wants to talk)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Ilero is only missing some of his sanity, no body parts, right?)(

[Craigh (TMO)] (I'm having fun. And yes, that describes Ilero pretty well)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (lol)

[Master] I have the gnome messenger of problems ready when you stop being interesting in conversation

[Craigh (TMO)] (Spring has been typing for a while, or stopped)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (or is blank and needs to hit enter)

[Master] she is AFK

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] He isn't missing an eye!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Brer isn't? Then why's he got an eye patch?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] He covers it so he can't see how bad you are all the time!

[Thistle (Carissa)] I... oh, hmmm that makes sense, I guess....

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm... My ears are burning. Should I be worried?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] No. Thistle is back

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] So I hear. Hello Thistle.

[Thistle (Carissa)] HI!!!

[Thistle (Carissa)] I just came back to tell Sundown he's wrong!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (He's actually not wearing his armor, that's why you didn't hear him approach)

[Thistle (Carissa)] You should have seen his face!!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (still hooded though)

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (Craigh looks extra skeletal next to Brer)

[Craigh (TMO)] I'm guessing you're Brer? I'm Craigh. New to the area, just learning my way around.

Craigh (TMO) offers his hand to shake.

Brer Necholas (TMO) shakes it. "Brer Necholas, at your service."

[Craigh (TMO)] So, she says she's supposed to tell your fortune. Is this a regular thing she does?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Have you not spent much time with gypsies?

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Mmm.. I think she likes the challenge.

[Craigh (TMO)] No, actually I haven't.

[Craigh (TMO)] That explains a lot though.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Ohhh then you shall enjoy the experience.

[Thistle (Carissa)] He's got some weird lines on his palms.

[Thistle (Carissa)] AND he said I can use blood this time!!

[Craigh (TMO)] I assume this is significant?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah you can tell SO much more when you use blood, 'specially in the Mist.

[Craigh (TMO)] I do like that it's weaker up here.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm, you're from farther south then?

[Thistle (Carissa)] You've been in the deeper mist? It's gross.

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Ghostwood was deeper, right?)

[Master] Yes

[Craigh (TMO)] Uklo lands, pretty far into it.

[Craigh (TMO)] It was bleak

[Thistle (Carissa)] Uklo?

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods. "I might be needing to head that way for a while."

Thistle (Carissa) trying to figure out if she's heard it

[Master] (They are one of the old Estates of Drillian

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (way far south, I think)

[Master] Powerful before the Mist

[Master] Historical family

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (lguess it's gnome time?)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (no palm reading?)

[Craigh (TMO)] (or that.)

[Master] Carissa?

[Thistle (Carissa)] (sorry cat)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Wanna see if I can read more of your fortune now, Brer?

[Thistle (Carissa)] 'Cause I'm not staying long. I'm going back to the forest!

Brer Necholas (TMO) shrugs.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yay!! Okay, let me think how Gramma usually does this....

[Craigh (TMO)] Should we find somewhere to sit? Or is this a standing ritual?

Craigh (TMO) looks around.

Thistle (Carissa) shrugs

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I'm sure we can use a bench in the church.

[Thistle (Carissa)] I don't THINK I need most the stuff Gramma uses. She like being showy. Probably just a knife and a bowl and somewhere to sit. Fires are nice, though.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] No show is fine.

[Spring] I know it's early, but I’m dead

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (huggle-pat)

[Spring] gonna go to bed y'alls. nitey nite

[Master] Sleep so you are here for next week and they can depend on your skills

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] (drive safe)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (Goodnight Spring! feel better!)

[Spring] okie day thanks

Spring has left the game on Fri Jun 11 21:48:48 EDT 2021

[Master] Fortunes told Lucky Charms!

[Thistle (Carissa)] (night!)

[Master] OR gnome comes with a problem

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle: Fortune Telling check: (d20) [1d20=20] 20 - ROLL FAILED against 13!!

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Let's go gnome!)

[Master] and both are going to happen

[Master] LOL

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lmao)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (meant to hide that...probably for the better we all know it's a massive failure)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Cough Gouch

[Thistle (Carissa)] (cut an artery maybe)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Umm

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Hello?

Brer Necholas (TMO) wraps up the gash in his hand.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] is there anyone here that is important?

[Craigh (TMO)] Yes, I think so

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) looks Craigh up and down

[Thistle (Carissa)] Hello!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] No I do not think you are important

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, not me!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] OH Thistle,

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] No not you

[Craigh (TMO)] One of them.

[Thistle (Carissa)] I'm important!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] You are not important

Craigh (TMO) points to the others.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Pffft, says you.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Yes I do

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Unless you want to join us in the mines

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ugh you probably want an adult like Brer

Thistle (Carissa) points at him

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] at least Talwin and Snee visit us

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] you have only been for parties

[Thistle (Carissa)] They're great parties!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Yes they are

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm, but don't tell Shi. I haven't told her that yet.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] they are for the workers

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] W O R K E R S

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] How can we help?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Well YOU mine, and I make sure the forest is okay!

[Thistle (Carissa)] And I encourage moral! Like a good part-time worker!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Your morals are not what I would say is ..... normal

[Thistle (Carissa)] Right! They're better than normal!

[Thistle (Carissa)] Because normal is boring!

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) shrugs It might be right

[Thistle (Carissa)] And you don't want BOREd workers!

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) looks at Brer

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] We need help

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) looks up surprised

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] OH

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Howard the Powerful!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] You are here!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] YOU

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] You can deal with this

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Can you please help us?

Thistle (Carissa) tries to hide her laughter and fails

[Thistle (Carissa)] The powerful?

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, I'm glad that's settled!

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) looks at Thistle

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] You have seen him, he slayed dozens of goblins

Thistle (Carissa) chokes on her laughter

[Thistle (Carissa)] Yeah yeahhh....The Powerful.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] He enchanted and crushed how many undead?

Craigh (TMO) thinks t himself, "slayed, or slew? which sounds better?"

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Thistle, don't be rude.

Thistle (Carissa) shrugs

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Howard is a wizard who others would be glad to have the chance to serve

[Thistle (Carissa)] So... Howard The Good

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Of course the Countess does outshine everyone

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] You weren't there Thistle. I glittered and halted almost a dozen goblins with one spell

[Thistle (Carissa)] ...glittered?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] It allowed Indigo and Brer to do their slaying free from an extra dozen goblins

[Thistle (Carissa)] So Howard the Glitterer!

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] When did that happen ? I was thinking of the dragon turtle

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Glittering Howard!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Oh I was not helpful in slaying the dragon turtle

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] How can we help you?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] We found a door

[Craigh (TMO)] In a mine?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] If Admiral Indigo was here he would be very helpful but Howard the Powerful is needed

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Yes

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] A mine

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] and a Door

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] exactly the problem

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm...

[Craigh (TMO)] Is it locked?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] We do not know

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] If you get close it shocks you

[Craigh (TMO)] Probably safest to not touch it until you know what's there.

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, well that's different.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Something shocking, I bet!

[Craigh (TMO)] How close?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] close to get to the door to open it

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I am not sure I can help. I can see if it is magic but I cannot remove traps

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] We better look at it

Craigh (TMO) levers himself up with his stick. "Sounds fun. Mind if I tag along?"

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Has it ... has it killed the people who have touched this door?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Umm, I'm probably going to wait here. Can you find your way back Craigh if I leave?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] I think that She will survive

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Thistle, I need your help to put on my armor.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] That is good news

[Thistle (Carissa)] Me or Shi?

[Thistle (Carissa)] OH

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (because metal and electricity go together really well!)

[Thistle (Carissa)] A she who got hurt

[Thistle (Carissa)] I can help with that!

[Thistle (Carissa)] The armor part.

[Thistle (Carissa)] I don't know healing. Or magic.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Except blood magic which probably isn't useful right now.

[Craigh (TMO)] It might also be a good chance to practice those trap skills you were talking about.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] What if it is a trap that needs disabling?

[Thistle (Carissa)] (your choice of the maybe maybe not trained thief or a priest and ranger)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Thistle, you might be the key to this whole problem!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Key, door)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Well if we find the key I bet it'll be easier.,

Brer Necholas (TMO) heads back to put on his armor.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I think you should come so we don't need a key

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] As long as it isn't magic

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] It will be good practice

[Craigh (TMO)] I'm a former apprentice, Howard, so if I can assist you at all, just let me know.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Good

[Thistle (Carissa)] Okayyyyy but Shi told me to be careful

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] I have no idea where a key would be

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] so yes it would be very good to know how to get around that problem

[Craigh (TMO)] (Brer and Thistle return in a few minutes after putting on his armor)

[Craigh (TMO)] (it's WAY faster with help)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] and anyone else?

[Craigh (TMO)] (Craigh)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (so we brought the all human party to a dark cave, great choice ;) )

[Master] Indigo?

[Craigh (TMO)] (Brer has torches)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (sure if he's there - not sure where anyone is)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (thought most of us have continual light rocks by now)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Glad you are here Admiral

Indigo (Lisa) grins "I like doors"

[Indigo (Lisa)] Bet there's something really good behind it

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] This is a weird one

[Craigh (TMO)] Admiral, it's a pleasure to meet you. I've heard a lot about you.

[Indigo (Lisa)] You can call me Indigo

[Craigh (TMO)] Indigo it is. I'm Craigh.

[Indigo (Lisa)] No ships here

[Thistle (Carissa)] He's the one who likes to eat!

[Indigo (Lisa)] Hello Craigh!

[Craigh (TMO)] Aha! Maybe that's what's behind the door! A ship!

Indigo (Lisa) scrunches up his face "Who doesn't like to eat?"

[Thistle (Carissa)] I dunno, but we were talking about Kenna's cooking and Jilly's cooking and then you came up.

[Craigh (TMO)] With Jilly and Kenna around, nobody.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] No one

[Indigo (Lisa)] Well maybe Craigh doesn't by the look of him

[Craigh (TMO)] You'd be this thin if you'd tasted the food at some of the places I've been too.

[Indigo (Lisa)] If you are eating Jilly and Kenna's food you will get better soon

[Indigo (Lisa)] So where is this door?

[Master] Just in a passage

[Indigo (Lisa)] All safe!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] You okay?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Sorry for that Admiral

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] they just sneak in

[Indigo (Lisa)] Yeah. It didn't get me that bad

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] We stopped working this area

Indigo (Lisa) laughs

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle: Animal Noise check: (d20) [1d20=13] 13 - ROLL FAILED against 11!!

Thistle (Carissa) tries to howl then chokes on dust

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ughh I forgot the mining dust.

[Master] Indigo moved 7'00".

[Master] Smiggles Grimboodle moved 9'08".

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) points there

[Indigo (Lisa)] You have to touch it or just get close to it?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] See that pile of bones and wood?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] That was Orgapa

[Indigo (Lisa)] Yeah?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] He was an asshole

[Craigh (TMO)] I thought you said she'd probably live?

[Indigo (Lisa)] I'm sorry

[Thistle (Carissa)] He said he.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] but deserved to suffer when he died not just become a pile like that

Howard Plum (Lisa) stretches out his arm towards the door

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (neither of my guys has obs)

[Thistle (Carissa)] Howard! Use a stick, like the one Craigh has!

[Craigh (TMO)] Hmm, let me take a look.

[Thistle (Carissa)] (same)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum moved 22'08".

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=3] 3 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (has good eyes)

[Master (to TMO only)] Craigh can see that there is no keyhole or handle but yes it looks like a doorway but no idea how to open this.

[Craigh (TMO)] (I couldn't make him all that useful in combat, so I tried to find other avenues of usefulness)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (very)

[Master (to TMO only)] with detect magic maybe there would be more

[Craigh (TMO) (to Master only)] and he can't cast that without having it memorized, right?)

[Master (to TMO only)] correct

[Craigh (TMO)] (99.99% sure of that, just checking)

[Craigh (TMO)] (5E has a mechanic for that for some spells)

[Craigh (TMO)] (but definitely not all)

[Craigh (TMO)] Well. No handle, no writing, no hints.

[Craigh (TMO)] How close did they get before getting zapped?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Some where touching it

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] some seemed to get it afterwards

[Craigh (TMO)] So the touch set it off?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] I have not gotten closer

Craigh (TMO) nods. He picks up a rock and tosses it into the door, just to see what happens.

Thistle (Carissa) steps back

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 2'11".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle moved 5'05".

[Master] Bounces off the door

[Master] and comes back a few feet

Thistle (Carissa) glances at Brer, "You probably shouldn't touch it."

[Craigh (TMO)] Yeah, they don't usually waste energy on non-living material.

Brer Necholas (TMO) nods.

[Craigh (TMO)] I didn't prepare Detect Magic today, Howard. Did you?

[Master] Combat has begun!

[Master] ROUND: 0

[Thistle (Carissa)] You know magic??

[Craigh (TMO)] Definitely something to start carrying around on a scroll.

[Master] Combat has finished.

[Craigh (TMO)] (we win!)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I almost always have that memorized

[Master] Sorry was double checking width and yes 20 feet

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum casts a spell against : Detect Magic - Wizard: For (2*7) 14 rounds I can detect magic in a 10'x60' path in front of me.

[Craigh (TMO)] Very little magic, Thistle. I was an apprentice for a bit.

[Master] glows brightly

[Craigh (TMO)] Can you see any triggers?

[Master] Protection magic

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] The door has magic upon it.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Brer Necholas moved 23'03".

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ummm I thought we knew that...

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] It's like a ward in a way. To protect from intruders

[Thistle (Carissa)] You know, with the whole zappy zappy

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] I have a scroll of protection from magic.

Brer Necholas (TMO) lifts his left hand under his hood.

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

[Master (to TMO only)] none, inert to evil / good

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] No malicious intent.

[Craigh (TMO)] Good to know.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Protection magic would not appear as evil but what is behind the door very well could be

Craigh (TMO) holds out his stick. "Thistle, you see a good place to poke?"

[Craigh (TMO)] You're the trap person.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (how large is the door?)

[Master] 20 foot wide and 10 foot tall filling up the end of this passageway

[Craigh (TMO)] Wish I had some wire..

[Thistle (Carissa)] Ummmmm...

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle: Find/remove traps check:(d100) [1d100=27] 27 - ROLL FAILED against 5!!

[Thistle (Carissa)] There? Wait no maybe... there?

[Thistle (Carissa)] (Not sure if she's trained up yet)

[Indigo (Lisa)] This is one big door!

[Thistle (Carissa)] (that's her pre-training roll)

[Craigh (TMO)] Do the miners have any wire?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Can you dispel magic Craigh?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (don't be like us!)

Craigh (TMO) shakes his head. "No, fraid not. Tasler didn't get around to teaching me that one."

[Craigh (TMO)] (you didn't think I was going to let you get around the curse that easily?)

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol)

Howard Plum (Lisa) nods

Craigh (TMO) looks back at the gnome. "Did the miners have any wire?"

[Craigh (TMO)] Copper preferably.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] I can go check

[Craigh (TMO)] Please do.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] I will be back soon

[Master] Smiggles Grimboodle moved 46'07".

[Craigh (TMO)] So. I'm thinking wrapping the wire around my stick and leading down to a spike in the ground. Use it as a primitive lightning rod.

[Craigh (TMO)] Make sure not to touch the wire.

[Craigh (TMO)] It is magic though, may not work.

[Master] Smiggles Grimboodle moved 41'00".

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) hands Craig about 8 inches of copper wire

Craigh (TMO) laughs.

Craigh (TMO) takes it. "Thank you."

[Craigh (TMO)] Okay then. Changing it up.

[Indigo (Lisa)] I've got some copper coins

[Craigh (TMO)] Not unless you're really good at spinning it into wire.

Craigh (TMO) leans his stick against the wall and squats down.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Oh. Thought you could wrap the wire around the coins around the stick

[Master] saving through versus paralization

Craigh (TMO) ties the copper wire to a metal plate under his pants leg and leaves the wire end touching the ground.

[Craigh (TMO)] ?

[Master] For having the stick in his hand and leaning it against the door

[Craigh (TMO)] wall

[Master] OH sorry

[Craigh (TMO)] not quite *that* foolish thank you

[Craigh (TMO)] :D

[Craigh (TMO)] Alright, step 2.

[Thistle (Carissa)] (don't recommend leaning it against the door now for...reasons)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)

Craigh (TMO) takes a coil of rope off his belt and unspools it and hands the end to Indigo.

Indigo (Lisa) takes it

[Craigh (TMO)] Use this to pull me away before I die.

[Craigh (TMO)] (the other end is attached to his belt already)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Uhhh ... okay

[Thistle (Carissa)] Want me to check the knot?

[Craigh (TMO)] Sure.

Indigo (Lisa) gets a good grip on the rope

[Thistle (Carissa)] Thistle: Rope Use check: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 - ROLL FAILED against 16!!

Thistle (Carissa) frowns

[Thistle (Carissa)] I don't like this rope.

[Thistle (Carissa)] I'm sure you'll be fine

[Thistle (Carissa)] (she is not on it tonight)

Craigh (TMO) checks to make sure the copper wire is still attached to his leg and touching the ground.

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, let's hope Kipytutto isn't looking at me right now.

Craigh (TMO) picks up his stick

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh moved 5'10".

Craigh (TMO) pokes the door.

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Find/remove traps check:(d100) [1d100=33] 33 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!

[Master] Save versus paralyzation for Craigh and Indigo

[Master] Indigo moved 3'07".

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Paralysis, Poison or Death save: (d20) [1d20=12] 12 - ROLL FAILED against 16!!

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo: Paralysis, Poison or Death save: (d20) [1d20=11] 11 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 6!!

[Craigh (TMO)] (that save doesn't look right)

[Master] double check

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

[Indigo (Lisa)] (indigo has halfling bonuses which is why they are low)

[Craigh (TMO)] (needs a 12 vs paralyzation)

[Master] so succeeds

[Master] both do

[Master] so you only take (1d12) [1d12=5] 5 points of damage

[Master] Craigh: No adjustments made.

[Master] Indigo's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 47 (-5) - Lightly Wounded

Craigh (TMO) jumps backward.

[Indigo (Lisa)] OUCH!

Indigo (Lisa) pulls rope

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, carp.

[Master] Craigh is missing HP

[Craigh (TMO)] (all part of my fiendish plot)

[Master] LOL

[Thistle (Carissa)] (immortal!)

[Indigo (Lisa)] So ... that hurt

[Craigh (TMO)] (k, we'll have to fix that too then - sorry, I apparently only put the bare basics in, then thought I'd done it all)

[Master] I did not think you could solve this tonight but you would investigate and have ideas for next week to solve

[Master] but please continue

[Master] you can roll TMO for those

[Indigo (Lisa)] Maybe we should get Snee or Kenna. They can make magic go away I think

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, that didn't work like I was hoping, but... magic.

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Can you blast through it?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Blast through a bunch of magic?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Admiral don't you have a magical Pick that lets you hew through stone like a giant?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Or Howard maybe smash it with a spell?

Indigo (Lisa) scratches his head "You hear some strange stories"

[Craigh (TMO)] (how tall is the passage?)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] You cannot "smash" magic except with a dispelling spell

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Indigo is correct. We need our priests. They like removing things

[Thistle (Carissa)] Can you fireball it?? Fireball solves lots of problems!

[Craigh (TMO)] (1d4) [1d4=2] 2+(5d6) [5d6=1,5,6,2,3] 17

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I do not know fire spells

[Thistle (Carissa)] Borrrringgggg

[Craigh (TMO)] (well, that is effing pathetic)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] 10 foot tall 20 foot wall

[Craigh (TMO) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Craigh modified: Combat - Current Hit Points:: CHANGED: 17 (null).

[Craigh (TMO)] (brb in a few minutes, got to take someone home)

[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.

[Master] Craigh's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 12 (-5) - Moderately Wounded

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Smiggles, who would have settled in this cave besides goblins. Anyone?

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] I am not sure, we found this when we started mining here

[Thistle (Carissa)] (wow that low? ouch)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] it must have been here for a while

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I am curious who would have set such a trap

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Because even if we remove the magic, it does not ensure we can open this handle less door

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (forgot - door is wood or stone?)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] grins no one ever asked

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] is stone

[Master] stone

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Would gnomes have created this kind of magical door?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Or dwarves? Wait, do dwarves do magic?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Seems odd though for goblins or gnomes to make a door this large

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] No one that I know would do this

[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Have you heard anything on the other side of it?

[Craigh (TMO)] (do I get to reroll any of those pathetic HP dice?, btw)

[Craigh (TMO)] (like, all of them ;)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (2 of them were good)

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] actually for TMO I will give you 2 more points to make the first one maxed

[Thistle (Carissa)] (lol)

[Craigh (TMO)] (meh, actually, about 20 is average)

[Craigh (TMO) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Craigh modified: Combat - Current Hit Points:: CHANGED: 19 (17).

[Craigh (TMO)] (added them)

[Master] Craigh's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 14 (-5) - Moderately Wounded

[Master] all settled for that now

[Craigh (TMO) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Craigh modified: Saving Throws - Paralysis, Poison or Death:: CHANGED: 12 (16). Rod, Staff or Wand:: CHANGED: 11 (18). Petrification or Polymorph:: CHANGED: 11 (17). Breath Weapon:: CHANGED: 15 (20).

[Master] and yes to Howard for the unusual size of a door for gnomes or goblins

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Any goblin bones lying around by the door?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (this is the new silver mine?)

[Master] no to goblin bones yes to new silver mine

[Craigh (TMO)] (I say we put up a sign!)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (LOL)

[Indigo (Lisa)] So those goblins that were in here before either could come and go without getting hurt or never made it this far in

[Thistle (Carissa)] (so that was the old spider they said they'd take care of and didn't??)

[Craigh (TMO)] Did the miners dig this out, or was it already out?

[Master] It was here when they found this cavern

[Indigo (Lisa)] (apparently so Carissa!)

[Indigo (Lisa)] We should probably head back then. Not sure we can do anything else now except get more hurt

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, we can always come back with proper tools and try to dig around it.

Craigh (TMO) looks at the door. Is it wood or metal?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Have you seen Kenna get rid of magic? She's good at that. Easier

[Craigh (TMO)] Nope, sure haven't.

[Indigo (Lisa)] She got rid of a whole house illusion one time!

[Craigh (TMO)] Who makes an illusion of a house?

[Indigo (Lisa)] And a fire elemental another time

[Thistle (Carissa)] Shi made an illusion of a forest. Why not a house?

[Craigh (TMO)] Fair point.

[Indigo (Lisa)] It wasn't the house I guess. But it was all the stuff inside it to make it look like it was a nice house

[Thistle (Carissa)] I think I'd just make illusions of more of me if I could do magic.

[Craigh (TMO)] Interior decoration illusion?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Oooh then I wouldn't have to clean my room! That's smart!

[Craigh (TMO)] Why not let the wolves do it for you?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Um because they can't climb?

[Thistle (Carissa)] And apparently I'm not as good at speaking wolf as I am speaking elvish. Which I'm definitely able to do!

[Thistle (Carissa)] So how do I tell them what to clean and what's not a toy?

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, nearly forgot

Craigh (TMO) reaches down and plucks the wire off his leg and hands it to Smiggles.

[Craigh (TMO)] Here you go. Thanks for letting me borrow it.

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) takes it Thanks

Craigh (TMO) steps close to Howard. "What do you think? Drop a metal pole against the door, think it'll ground it out? Or is it too smart to fall for that?

[Craigh (TMO)] Oooh... idea maybe.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Why on earth would you do that when magic can remove it?

[Craigh (TMO)] Because it's interesting?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I find magic is interesting

[Craigh (TMO)] There's a spider corpse just up the hallway. Wonder what a formerly living body would do?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] If I could remove it myself I would

Howard Plum (Lisa) shivers

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] What if it reanimated it?

[Craigh (TMO)] That would definitely be interesting.

[Craigh (TMO)] Pretty sure it won't happen though.

Craigh (TMO) points to the pile of bones with his stick. "It didn't reanimate him."

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] He was holding onto a rope too

[Thistle (Carissa)] What was on the other end of the rope?

[Craigh (TMO)] That would have been good information to have 10 minutes ago.

[Master] A spike he put at the base of the door

[Master] it was metal

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] A spike he put at the base of the door

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] it was metal

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] Your stick is wood

Craigh (TMO) turns to look at the gnome. "Next time, please offer *all* pertinent information beforehand."

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Persuasion check: (d20) [1d20=14] 14 - ROLL FAILED against 13!!

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) shrugs

Craigh (TMO) sighs. "Don't you remember, you have that urgent appointment somewhere else?"

[TMO] Craigh targets Smiggles Grimboodle. Distance: 10'08"

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh casts a spell against Smiggles Grimboodle: Engagement: The engagement spell causes the subject to ‘remember’ an important commitment to be in a difference place about a half-hour ago. Unless threatened or engaged in combat, the subject slaps his forehead, bolts up from his seat, and rushes out the door to this supposed previous engagement, which is some distance away, stopping suddenly after a number rounds equal to the caster’s level, as the ‘prior commitment’ is forgotten, and spending another 1d4 rounds trying vainly to remember what it was (hence the spell’s duration). After this period the subject returns to whatever she was doing when the spell was cast. A saving throw is allowed when the spell is cast; success negates the spell.

[Master] Smiggles Grimboodle: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=4] 4 - ROLL FAILED against 19!!

[Craigh (TMO)] (I went for 'fun value')

[Smiggles Grimboodle (Master)] I will go see if I can catch up with the rest of the crew, I will be back when you have figured out this door

Smiggles Grimboodle (Master) moves back to the front of the cave

[Master] Smiggles Grimboodle moved 39'11".

[Craigh (TMO)] I hate people who expect you to solve all their problems and don't bother to actually *inform* you of anything.

[Thistle (Carissa)] You do other magic?

[Craigh (TMO)] Not much. My training kind of got derailed.

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] You affect people's minds?

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, uh, not really. Just little nudges here and there.

[Thistle (Carissa)] Sooooooo yes?

[Craigh (TMO)] (an unhappy paladin is intimidating)

[Craigh (TMO)] I didn't make him do anything he didn't already want to do! He could stand here and be useless, or go be useless somewhere else!

[Brer Necholas (TMO)] Hmm..

[Thistle (Carissa)] HMMMM...

[Craigh (TMO)] So! How about this door

[Craigh (TMO)] Anybody else got any bright ideas?

[Thistle (Carissa)] It IS a door. I think. It's big...

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, that brings up the next question. Are we certain it's not an illusion?

[Craigh (TMO)] I don't think so, but could be.

[Craigh (TMO)] I tapped it with the stick, felt solid.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I don't think I could disbelieve it with any conviction

[Master] Brer Necholas XP award: 200. Next level in 48922.

[Master] Craigh XP award: 200. Level-up!

[Master] Thistle XP award: 150. Next level in 26359.

[Master] Indigo XP award: 150. Next level in 33528.

[Master] Howard Plum XP award: 150. Next level in 15931.

[Master] Snezana XP award: 100. Next level in 104316.

[Craigh (TMO)] Probably not worth the risk. Besides, a dispel would tear down an illusion too.

[Craigh (TMO)] (my xp is set up wrong)

[Craigh (TMO)] (need to fix that)

[Craigh (TMO)] (never mutliclassed in KLoOge before, not sure how it needs to be set up to be right)

[Master] Just the new class

[Master] can do that later

[Master] wanted to give the group a chance to meet the new character and to find this new puzzle to solve

[Master] and then you can work out when to solve it

[Master] and there are 3 more mining things to solve also over the next few sessions

[Carissa] no more ideas with current group

[Craigh (TMO)] Wait, I can see some writing on it.

[Craigh (TMO)] it says '..or'

[Lisa] me either

[Craigh (TMO)] in the bottom corner

[Lisa] need to say friend in elvish or something?

[Thistle (Carissa)] Door?

[Carissa] Long as the door isn't holding back a purple worm or something...

[Craigh (TMO)] (well, if either of us had made our remove traps roll, we might have figured it out)

[Carissa] (lol)

[Craigh (TMO)] (but traps doesn't appear to be our thang)

[Master] Mull it over and discuss during the week

[Carissa] (well and with the fuzzy time, I don't know if Thistle finished her training for her improved traps skill)

[Master] so you can bring which ever skills to bear

[Master] We will say no to training for this one

[Carissa] (didn't think so since it takes so long, but hey, 8 months, not sure which month this is ;) )

[Master] Who would be training her? Ilero?

[Craigh (TMO)] (aha, my thief skills are off - it's from the first build I sent Bob. I don't appear to have done them for the current build; but not going to change his focus, so traps still won't be his thang)

[Carissa] It was either her or Regor both of whom as slow teachers so yeah, I think you said 8 weeks a few sessions ago?

[Master] yes 8 weeks sounds right, so just under 3 months

[Craigh (TMO)] (you're higher level than Craigh, so he can't teach you)

[Carissa] (traps wasn't Thistle's focus but apparently it was needed so she'll give slightly more focus)

[Master] and so you have a magical doorway, most groups would just Dispel it but with your particular bent of magic

[Master] it will be interesting

[Carissa] fireball

[Master] go off and sleep

[Master] think and add thoughts later

[Craigh (TMO)] zzzzzzzzzzzz

[Carissa] Already halfway there!

[Master] grins

[Carissa] Night!

[Master] have a great weekend all

Carissa has left the game on Fri Jun 11 23:51:07 EDT 2021

[Lisa] Goodnight

Lisa has left the game on Fri Jun 11 23:51:43 EDT 2021

[Craigh (TMO)] so how do I do this class 1 and class 2 thing?
