[Master] Hello there

[Master] No Lara or Spring

[Lisa] Hello :)

[Master] so once Carissa is in you can get going

[Lisa] yes

[Master] I am glad you got power back

[Master] at least I am guessing you do :)

[Lisa] yes

[Lisa] was a small thing I guess. About 1500 people affected

[Master] good

[Lisa] so something broke or something

[Master] glad it was fixed fast

[Master] as I understand the plan tonight Branwyn talks, then Dimension Doors out

[Master] and I really need to get to the post office, the Birthday Game gifts are still sitting on the counter

[Lisa] unless marid lets down the ice shield

[Lisa] we can do that now unless you want to go to the post office

[Master] chuckles

[Master] one reason is that I am missing one envelope

[Master] so I have to go pick that up then I can mail them

[Master] I am pining Michael now

Carissa has joined the game on Fri Oct 15 19:25:18 EDT 2021

[Carissa] Forgot I was working a festival today. I'm beat, but here.

[Master] glad you are

[Master] and Michael will be in shortly

[Master] and for Carissa - An opinion without 3.14 is an onion

[Lisa] Hi Carissa!

[Carissa] Hi Lisa!

[Carissa] But what if it's onion pi?

[Lisa] yuck

[Carissa] lol

[Master] chuckles

[Lisa] who is the world would want to play a "fun fast-paced co-op retail simulator"?

[Master] It turns out that Michael is in Hawaii and lost track of time zones

[Lisa] I want to pretend I work in an Amazon warehouse?

Michael has joined the game on Fri Oct 15 19:30:49 EDT 2021

[Lisa] Aloha Michael!

[Michael] Aloha!

[Michael] Sorry, Bob is 6 hours not three

[Michael] oops

[Carissa] Hi Michael!

[Lisa] Why are you playing with us when you can be eating poi and doing the hula?

[Michael] Hello! :)

[Michael] I don't Hula

[Michael] Ever

[Lisa] Seriously - nice vacation. You should enjoy it

[Michael] Also I am trying to make a concerted effort to not blow off Bob's game

[Carissa] Agree. At least go swimming or something!

[Michael] (more than I have too ;) )

[Michael] Er

[Michael] Don't tempt me

[Michael] LOL

[Michael] I'm good for a couple hours

[Master] yes to swimming

[Lisa] I would blow off Bob's game in a heart beat if I was in Hawaii

[Michael] :)

[Master] LOL

[Master] Love you too Lisa

[Carissa] lol!

[Michael] I'll meet you half way

[Master] and so

[Michael] Two Hours

[Michael] :)

[Lisa] Good

[Master] Branwyn Howard and Talwin are inside

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (TMO is late so we should start)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (he just posted)

[Michael] (I'm fine with it)

[Michael] (Whichever is better)

[Master] ready and GO

[Michael] (Getting into Character and dice panel. One sec)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am afraid that we are not communicating well. I would like to bring my friends in. I think they may do better. If you will lower the ice shield I can get them right now. We wish to help you.

[Michael] (And have nice backup just in case :) )

[Marid (Master)] Are you saying you are not powerful enough to leave on your own? Then how did you get in here?

Talwin (Michael) Sidles slowly over to stand next to Bran

[Talwin (Michael)] Talwin moved 12'01".

Branwyn (Lisa) smiles "We can leave and come back. But it will take longer if you leave the shield up."

[Talwin (Michael)] Talwin moved 11'07".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Human mages must memorize for the day and I was not prepared for multiple trips to this tower today.

[Talwin (Michael)] (And isn't Howard and Icicle?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can send my apprentice now and he shall be back tomorrow. I think I should stay with these two men to make sure they do not offend

Talwin (Michael) Gestures frantically

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Craigh got blasted and she warmed him up)

[Talwin (Michael)] "No offense intended"

[Talwin (Michael)] "Ma'am"

[Talwin (Michael)] (Also Thank you Lisa. I missed that. Oops)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Or you can lower the shield and my friends can be here in a matter of minutes

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is up to you

Branwyn (Lisa) bows slightly

Marid (Master) slight smile

[Marid (Master)] Who are your friends and why do you need them?

Talwin (Michael) Smiles weakly

Talwin (Michael) Bows slightly. I am Sir Talwin. I uh. I'm with her

Marid (Master) raised eyebrow her

[Marid (Master)] You are a Sir?

[Marid (Master)] She is your servant?

[Talwin (Michael)] Er. No. "I serve her"

Talwin (Michael) Points

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sorry. Quotes around full sentence)

[Marid (Master)] She is your master then

[Branwyn (Lisa)] He is a knight of my estate and a trusted friend

[Marid (Master)] Your estate

[Marid (Master)] tell me about this estate

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But who I wished to bring in are an elven priestess and a gnome illusionist. They are better known for their social graces and diplomacy than myself

[Marid (Master)] do you have armies? Riches? navies?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Though the gnome is rather quiet at the moment

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We are comfortable and have no need of armies or navies. If anything needs protecting, we take care of it ourselves.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Now. The shield?

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs "Howard. Go get Raelynn and Bixi please. I will expect you back first thing in the morning."

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Yes Branwyn.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum casts a spell against : Dimension Door: I can teleport up to (30*8) 240 yards away.

[Marid (Master)] I created the wall to keep us protected

Howard Plum (Lisa) concentrates on the open area in front of the ruins

[Marid (Master)] You are only the second person to breach that safety in the decades we have been here

Talwin (Michael) Frowns

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (I said if she wasn't going to cooperate I would beam out)

[Marid (Master)] (yes and Howard is outside)

[Talwin (Michael)] "We? Did the first group harm anyone?”

[Marid (Master)] There were four of them

[Marid (Master)] They attempted to steal her scrolls

[Marid (Master)] they did not succeed

Talwin (Michael) Nods

[Talwin (Michael)] Did you banish them from the Tower?

[Talwin (Michael)] We didn't see anyone on the way in

[Marid (Master)] They were not powerful enough to survive their attempt

Talwin (Michael) I doubt many are

[Talwin (Michael)] For this tower at least

Talwin (Michael) (Carefully resptfull tone)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I believe she meant that the group may have made it in but they did not survive the attempt at theft and escape

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I'm back!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Miss Raelynn! Branwyn needs your assistance tomorrow

Talwin (Michael) Nods in understanding

[Raelynn (Carissa)] You're alive! Oh, that's reassuring! But what happened?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Branwyn is alive, right? She couldn't be hurt if you want me to wait a day...

[Marid (Master)] (waiting to let the outside people converse then will come back to Talwin)

Howard Plum (Lisa) waves at everyone to come over

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sure)

[Talwin (Michael)] (NP)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (sorry - outside PCs have been idle)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I mean what do you say to a creature that has D&D 2.0 "Wish" At their command. No pressure or anything

[Marid (Master)] (fully approve Lisa)

[Talwin (Michael)] )

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] We made it. Everyone is fine. There's a Marid inside

[Raelynn (Carissa)] A what?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Love how casual he is about it Lisa ;) )

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] It's basically elemental water magic personified

[Talwin (Michael)] (I love our characters)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I'm worried about Branwyn. She isn't ... talking well

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh well that sounds cool!

Raelynn (Carissa) back to confused

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] She does so well with nobles and royalty but this is strange

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] That's why you couldn't dispel the ice wall

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] This Marid is more powerful than you can imagine

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] She froze Craigh for a moment

Raelynn (Carissa) nods, "That makes sense. Something had to be to put that up..."

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Umm, is he okay?

Howard Plum (Lisa) nods

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] She thawed him out

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Branwyn or the Marid?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] He tried to look in her mage's chest

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] The Marid.

Raelynn (Carissa) frowns

[Raelynn (Carissa)] He shouldn't be poking around in someone's stuff.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] She had a mage in a wheelchair but I think the mage is dead

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] And she can't leave because of the Mist

Raelynn (Carissa) nods again, "The Mist is quite horrid."

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] But ... I can't take you in until tomorrow.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Will they be okay until then?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I think so. Branwyn is there.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] As long as Craigh learned his lesson....

Howard Plum (Lisa) laughs

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Well she might be fun to talk to! I've never met a Marid before that I know of. What's her name?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I think becoming a block of ice even for a few minutes is a good lesson

Raelynn (Carissa) smiles

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Ummmm ... I don't know.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Marid?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Do Marids have names?

Raelynn (Carissa) sighs, "Everything has a name. It doesn't mean they'll tell you it, but they do."

TMO has joined the game on Fri Oct 15 20:00:24 EDT 2021

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (Hi TMO :) )

[Raelynn (Carissa)] It's okay. I haven't been good at asking lately, either. I'm trying to be better at it!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Hi TMO!)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Hi TMO!)

[TMO] (sorry for the delay. found out on the drive home that we were eating at the in-laws tonight. normally we don't on Fridays)

[TMO] (or I'd have given you more warning)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] After her not liking Talwin and Craigh too much, I didn't want to say anything

[Talwin (Michael)] (Tell the in-laws to eat at your place. And then go in another room :) )

[TMO] (absolutely not)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Hey I was perfectly respectful!)

Raelynn (Carissa) smiles, "Probably a smart move. I don't believe any of you inside can heal if you get in trouble!"

[Talwin (Michael)] (Once I realized the tower was actually occupied)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Actually, I think I even knocked LOL)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] So we just get cozy and wait out here until tomorrow? There's no other way in?

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] No. We should watch in case she changes her mind, but Branwyn asked and the Marid just started asking all these questions

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] So Branwyn told me to go get you

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Branwyn isn't one to have a lot of ... patience

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Well, then I'll do my best once I can! Normally people ask for N'laea. This is exciting!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] /me pats the ground by her

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Might as well sit while we wait.

Howard Plum (Lisa) gathers his robes and sits next to Raelynn

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] We can bring N'laea too if you want

Howard Plum (Lisa) looks at N'laea

N'laea (Carissa) points to her quiver, "If you want me to shoot something or tame something, sure."

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I don't think that would work here

N'laea (Carissa) shrugs, "That is fine. Indigo was telling me about one of the times he was eaten. It's a good story."

Howard Plum (Lisa) laughs

[TMO] (there are so many to choose from)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (SO many, lol)

[Talwin (Michael)] (At least it wasn't by a mimic house. I really thought I was going to die that game)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I hope he told the one about the tree that almost ate him. I think that was my favorite

[Indigo (Lisa)] Don't spoil my stories!

Indigo (Lisa) grins

[N'laea (Carissa)] Ah! I do not think I'd heard that one yet. And now it seems we have time for it.

[Talwin (Michael)] (lol)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh! I want to hear this one...

[Indigo (Lisa)] I s'pose so. I knew looking at a mage tower wouldn't just take an afternoon

[Indigo (Lisa)] (you don't really want to hear it)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (we can move along :) )

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol no figured that was a good next scene part)

[Talwin (Michael)] (posts link to chat. LOL)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (just imagine Indigo telling it while the others talk)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Bob? Do you want to switch over. Or is there more to do out here)

[Marid (Master)] ( I am listening and letting things play out, then we go back to Branwyn, Talwin and Craig)

[Marid (Master)] (two are ready?)

[TMO] (scene opens to Craigh dancing the waltz with the Marid)

[Marid (Master)] (LOL)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (can we try to save bunches of the conversation to the next day when everyone can participate?)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (finish some loose ends now and click forward?)

[Master] Fully on board with that

[Indigo (Lisa)] (thanks)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (appreciated)

[Craigh (TMO)] Ma'am, I'm still feeling the ice you put me in. Is it alright if I sit on one of the beds for a bit?

[Talwin (Michael)] (It is nice, because someone might notice something else or ask a better question)

Marid (Master) slight frown, then nods

[Craigh (TMO)] (excellent. Phase 1 objective complete. She acknowledged my existence in a way other than hostile)

Craigh (TMO) bows his head and moves to sit.

[Talwin (Michael)] (Good Job!)

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh moved 27'03".

Marid (Master) looks at Branwyn, Why do you have these followers?

[Talwin (Michael)] (We Deliver!)

Craigh (TMO) tests the bed with his fingers, then moves to the other one.

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh moved 6'05".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] They are skilled in their own ways and are loyal

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is good to have friends you can trust around you

[Marid (Master)] I agree with having loyal friends is very important

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But I do not wish to overburden you with my presence. I can go downstairs until the morrow if it would put you more at ease

Talwin (Michael) Nods

[Talwin (Michael)] "And I as Well. If you would feel more comfortable"

[Talwin (Michael)] "I apologize for my earlier behavior. I did not think the Tower was occupied"

[Talwin (Michael)] "We preserve knowledge wherever possible"

[Marid (Master)] You are not a burden, you are at least skilled

Talwin (Michael) Nods graciously in a half bow

[Talwin (Michael)] "I prefer not to be thought of as a Thief"

Marid (Master) looks at Talwin, You are not a thief, a thief actually steals something

[Talwin (Michael)] "Attempted thief then"

Branwyn (Lisa) grins

Craigh (TMO) merely listens.

[Talwin (Michael)] "We hate to see lost knowledge and written history be lost to the ages"

[Talwin (Michael)] "Thus, when we see abandoned places, we save whatever we can"

[Talwin (Michael)] "We meant no disrespect"

[Talwin (Michael)] (Even on vacation I can't type. Damn)

[Marid (Master)] Why would you think this was an abandoned place?

Talwin (Michael) Nods in understanding

[Talwin (Michael)] The Ice Wall made it appear deserted. Maybe an artifact spell placed to hold the tower in time almost

[Talwin (Michael)] And when we came in, nothing appeared disturbed

[Talwin (Michael)] I knocked several times on two doors to be polite, but no one answered

[Talwin (Michael)] The Chapel downstairs we paid our respects to whomever may have worshiped there, but it too was empty

[Talwin (Michael)] We thought maybe no one had been here for a long time

[Talwin (Michael)] Or rather, I supposed that

[Marid (Master)] That is nice of you

[Talwin (Michael)] I didn't even see you when we came in. That is why I was excited to see the scrolls. We could save them. However, had I known, I would never have presumed to take them

[Talwin (Michael)] I'm sorry

[Talwin (Michael)] (That's all I got)

[Talwin (Michael)] (A simple apology)

[Talwin (Michael)] (LOL)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (that is good)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I'm fine giving her space for the night)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (video call one sec)

[Carissa] I am away from the keyboard.

[Marid (Master)] (sorry lost a name, grabbing it again)

[Marid (Master)] Maya was most insistent on assisting others

Talwin (Michael) My Lady Branwyn is much the same.

Talwin (Michael) Smiles widely

[Talwin (Michael)] I have yet to see her turn down aid when she can give it

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sorry if I just volunteered us for something. Shit)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sorry Lisa)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I didn’t even think before typing that)

[Marid (Master)] (grins in avarice)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Lisa is going to kill me)

[Marid (Master)] (I think not actually)

[Marid (Master)] Where have you gone with your master?

Marid (Master) glances over at Craigh on the bed, Are you well?

[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sorry that was directed at me Bob?)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I got confused)

[Marid (Master)] (She asked Talwin where he has gone with his master and asked Craigh if he was well)

[Marid (Master)] (then we jump ahead by a night now that Carissa is back)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sorry. Complete Brain fart. That was obvious)

[Talwin (Michael)] (NP)

[Talwin (Michael)] We've been all over honestly. Though, we spend much of our time in the Mists

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (quick birthday video call; too hectic for it to be long thankfully)

[Talwin (Michael)] So many troubles and trials to discover and overcome

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (as in for my dad's birthday)

[Talwin (Michael)] We had to protect many from a vengeful Necromancer

[Talwin (Michael)] And we've found a dimension trapped in time

Talwin (Michael) Eyes Bran, not sure if he is talking too much

[Marid (Master)] A venture into the Plane of Time?

Talwin (Michael) Frowns

[Talwin (Michael)] Not really?

[Talwin (Michael)] It was a pocket of reality that had become trapped in time by a powerful magical artifact

[Talwin (Michael)] It was

[Talwin (Michael)] a loop it seemed

[Talwin (Michael)] But all turned out well in the end

[Talwin (Michael)] ...

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Let us leave this Marid alone for now and we may speak of these things tomorrow when everyone is present

Talwin (Michael) Nods

[Talwin (Michael)] I apologize

Talwin (Michael) Turns embarrassed red

[Branwyn (Lisa)] No need for apologies. I would just rather that we all be together as much as we can be for further conversation

[Branwyn (Lisa)] May I start a fire in the kitchen hearth?

[Master] So a quick reincointer around the spaces

[Marid (Master)] Below is permitted

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you. We shall speak again soon.

Talwin (Michael) Respectful bow and murmured thanks

[Master] quick covering going down as you cannot inspect the top floor carefully

Branwyn (Lisa) leaves to go to the kitchen to create some warmth while they wait

[Master] the next floor down has the dining hall with a hearth and the raised table at the end with two chairs, a hearth there

[Talwin (Michael)] Never thought I’d be lucky enough to meet a being such as that and live

Talwin (Michael) "er, present company excepted of course"

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

[Talwin (Michael)] (Cause you know, Bran is a badass)

[Master] then on the ground floor (inside the tower) is the kitchen, the chapel, etc.

[Master] and moving everyone to that first floor now

[Talwin (Michael)] "She seemed...nice? As long as we don't disrespect the tower or the mages pocessions"

[Talwin (Michael)] "I think we'll be ok"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes. I just wish she was more direct. She asks direct questions and gives vague answers.

[Craigh (TMO)] Cute though.

Talwin (Michael) Wideyed at Craigh

Talwin (Michael) Sputters "What?"

[Talwin (Michael)] You. You were an Ice Cube!

Craigh (TMO) shrugs. "I'm just sayin'."

Talwin (Michael) Contemplates

[Branwyn (Lisa)] She may be able to hear you.

[Craigh (TMO)] How does that change her attractiveness? I never said I'd attempt anything.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Let's just get some heat and some food and then some sleep. Not much to do until tomorrow

[Craigh (TMO)] Merely commenting.

[Talwin (Michael)] Well...I mean

[Talwin (Michael)] You're not wrong

[Talwin (Michael)] But

Talwin (Michael) Eyes Bran

[Talwin (Michael)] Er, yeah. Food

[Talwin (Michael)] and Bed

[Master] Branwyn has the kitchen there and the only door there too

[Talwin (Michael)] I suppose you're the brave one

[Talwin (Michael)] I'd be terrified to even say anything

[Craigh (TMO)] Nah, I waited until we left, remember?

[Master] for Lisa and Branwyn exploring the doors

[Craigh (TMO)] She doesn't like me, yet, no need to rush things. Probably won't ever be a chance, either.

[Talwin (Michael)] Yeah, I agree with Branwyn. We got nothing to hide, and I'm positive she can hear us, but I don’t want to cause any offence. I just don't know enough about pure beings"

Talwin (Michael) Slaps his face

[Master] that door opens outward

Craigh (TMO) follows Branwyn if she'll let him.

Talwin (Michael) Hist own. Not Craigh

[Craigh (TMO)] (I was wondering!)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Sorry I would neve hit another PC)

[Master] beyond the door is a stair down

[Craigh (TMO)] (besides, you'd probably break Craigh's neck)

Talwin (Michael) Grumbles. "Ma'am if you're listening, we're just paying compliments, not trying to cause offense"

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh moved 45'07".

[Master] and in her full light she can see the wall of ice around the tower

Talwin (Michael) Lays down on Kitchen floor

[Master] and the ground down below

[Talwin (Michael)] (LOL TMO haha.)

[Craigh (TMO)] Think the ice goes underground too?

[Talwin (Michael)] (Meanwhile Bran is listening to us and rolling her eyes)

Talwin (Michael) Nods

[Talwin (Michael)] Yep

[Master (to Lisa only)] and Branwyn understands that this is the way in and out of the tower in normal times, there is the ground floor out there

[Talwin (Michael)] I saw the stairwell going down. The ice continues down into the passage

[Master] and that wraps up what I need to make sure you know

[Talwin (Michael)] Want to take a look? I believe we are allowed to go below

[Talwin (Michael)] (Cool beans)

[Craigh (TMO)] (Branwyn is looking down the stairs right now)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I still would rather wait for us all to be together

[Talwin (Michael)] No problem. We can wait. Just in case do you want me to take first watch at the door?

Craigh (TMO) nods. "Of course. Anything else we need to do here?"

[Master] Time of Day: 07:32 AM. Day 16 Mid ___ tre, Bel {Mid Fall} 16th, 351 SKR.

[Talwin (Michael)] I doubt anything will bother us. The Marid said we were only yhte second group to breach the ward. The others didn't make it. But, you never know"

[Master] and morning

[Master] everyone has spells, etc.

[Talwin (Michael)] Cool

[Talwin (Michael)] I hate to ask, but do you guys want me to stick around?

[Talwin (Michael)] (OOC)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I can if you would like)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I cannot in good conscience want you to stay on the computer while in Hawaii but if you would like to, of course you are very welcome and wanted)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (what she said)

[Talwin (Michael)] (I kind of want to go to the beach. It's my last day here haha)

[Talwin (Michael)] (Thank you)

[Master] GO

[Craigh (TMO)] (then go dude)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh yes! Go!!)

[Craigh (TMO)] (thanks for coming in)

[Talwin (Michael)] (See you next week. Thank you)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (have fun!)

Michael has left the game on Fri Oct 15 20:55:41 EDT 2021

[Master] So Howard can bring in as many as he can, did Branwyn want to bop out and in ?

[Branwyn (Lisa) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Howard Plum modified: Spells - CHANGED: Detect Magic - Wizard -- # Memorized: 1 (+0), CHANGED: Dimension Door -- # Memorized: 2 (+0),

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (if we bring everybody we can't get them all out at once but ok)

[Master] Totally up to the group

[Craigh (TMO) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Craigh modified: Spells - CHANGED: Acquaintance* -- # Memorized: 0 (1), CHANGED: Change Self* -- # Memorized: 1 (0), CHANGED: Comprehend Languages -- # Memorized: 1 (0), CHANGED: Janne's Impressive Demeanor* -- # Memorized: 0 (1),

[Master] but want you to cover your bases

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (I don't see a reason for it still)

[Master] work it out

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (just as long as everyone has someone available)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (if extra players show up next week Branwyn can pop in and out and get them - she'll max out dimension door in the morning)

[Master] Could be Lara and or Spring

[Master] can Howard bring in Bixi and one for Carissa?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes)

[Master] ok that sounds great

[Master] Carissa? which character

[Master] Howard Plum moved 69'04".

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] So are you ready to travel through the ice to the tower?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (still Rae)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Just like last time. Hold on

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Is this as fun as going to the bottom of a cavern?

Howard Plum (Lisa) smiles "Better destination"

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum casts a spell against : Dimension Door: I can teleport up to (30*8) 240 yards away.

Raelynn (Carissa) holds on tight

[Master] brb

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Lovely! Good to see you all. I assume Howard filled you in?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Mostly! I think.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do not touch anything in the room without permission.

Raelynn (Carissa) shakes head, "That was more fun, but I can't imagine doing it blindly like yesterday."

Raelynn (Carissa) smiles, "Well, it's someone's home, isn't it? It'd be rude to do so."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes, well ...

[Raelynn (Carissa)] And I did hear about Craigh...

[Raelynn (Carissa)] You look warmer!

Craigh (TMO) nods. "Much better now, thanks."

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ready to meet the Marid?

[Master] Did you want to just go up or explore anything on the way ?

[Craigh (TMO)] There's a temple room

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (up to Carissa?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (fine with either)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (unless we want to go below first that no one has seen)

[Master] and no Suomi people here

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (we can see what's down there first)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (and do we have anyone Suomi now?)

[Master] Lisa I sent you a whisper with that info

[Master] before we did the time shift

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I missed it other than this is the ground floor)

[Master (to Lisa only)] (to Lisa only)] and Branwyn understands that this is the way in and out of the tower in normal times, there is the ground floor out there

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That would be the way in and out of the tower if there wasn't a wall of ice around us

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The ground floor would be that way

[Craigh (TMO)] Yeah, I was wondering if we could dig under it if needed.

[Craigh (TMO)] Hopefully we're on friendly terms now though, so won't need to escape.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Agreed

[Raelynn (Carissa)] You'll just keep needing spells, though, if that's the only way in and out?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Correct. It would be nice if she would drop the shield eventually

[Craigh (TMO)] At least temporarily to let us out. Not sure how much work it is to erect it.

[Master] Branwyn moved 1'00".

[Master] Craigh moved 1'03".

[Master] Howard Plum moved 2'07".

[Master] Raelynn moved 4'04".

[Master] I moved the icons to the top floor map but you are there only when you want to be there

[Master] as you talk among your selves downstairs

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (sorry had to get meds, focusing best as I can)

[Branwyn (Lisa) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Branwyn modified: Spells - CHANGED: Continual Light - Wizard -- # Memorized: 1 (+0), CHANGED: Dimension Door -- # Memorized: 4 (+1), CHANGED: Fireball -- # Memorized: 1 (+1), CHANGED: Otto's Silver Tongue -- # Memorized: 0 (1), CHANGED: Polymorph Other -- # Memorized: 0 (1), CHANGED: Water Breathing - Wizard -- # Memorized: 1 (0),

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 33'02".

Branwyn (Lisa) bows "Good morning"

[Marid (Master)] Is it ?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have brought the friends I told you about. Yes it is morning,

Craigh (TMO) bows as well.

[Marid (Master)] Time seems to not have much meaning

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hi! I'm Raelynn! Do you have a name you wish to share?

[Namsut (Master)] You may call me Mansut

[Namsut (Master)] Namsut

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Nice to meet you, Namsut.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Raelynn: Etiquette check: (d20) [1d20=8] 8 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!

[Craigh (TMO)] (it has been a long time - she's even getting her name wrong)

[Namsut (Master)] (grins)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)

Raelynn (Carissa) gives a lovely curtesy or whatever fits

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol)

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh moved 20'04".

Craigh (TMO) moves to the back of the room and sits cross-legged on the floor.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] My friend Howard told me a bit about you, but it's always better to hear from the person themselves. He said you had a friend you were looking for or missing?

Namsut (Master) looks at the chair in the middle of the room

[Namsut (Master)] I miss her deeply

[Namsut (Master)] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1UawvpHB3o

[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Did she have a name as well?

[Namsut (Master)] Maya

[Raelynn (Carissa)] That is also a lovely name. Is she still here or is she elsewhere?

[Namsut (Master)] Her silver cord snapped

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm, I don't know anything about silver cords... what caused it to snap? I'd think that'd be difficult to do if it was made of silver.

[Namsut (Master)] When someone like you attempts to travel the Astral Plane you have a silver cord that you trail behind you

[Namsut (Master)] to find your way back

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oooh I've never traveled the planes before. Does that means she's stuck in them somewhere?

[Namsut (Master)] No one can know

[Raelynn (Carissa)] There might be some spells to try to find her... How long ago did this happen?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If you could leave here could you search for her?

[Namsut (Master)] I would cross the Planes to aid her

[Namsut (Master)] It came after we raised the shield

[Namsut (Master)] when we could feel the Mist advancing we attempted

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Well we do have ways to get out of the Mist if you're able to handle it for a short time. I'd think that's the first step...

[Namsut (Master)] Projecting one's astral form is the healthiest method of traveling to the Astral plane. This method, using the astral spell or the psionic ability astral projection, separates the astral self from the traveler's body. The astral self, bound to its original body by a silver cord, can then enter the Astral plane and travel through it into the outer planes. Travel by this fashion has a great advantages in that the traveler does not risk his real hide—if the astral form is slain or destroyed, the traveler's psyche returns to his original body. Further, the traveler can voluntarily return to his original body if there is a horrendous danger or hazardous situation to confront.

[Namsut (Master)] The disadvantages of astral projection are several. The first is the care of the physical body. A physical body without its astral component does not age, nor does it require food, water, or air. A detect life reveals that the character is alive, otherwise he appears to be in a state of suspended animation that resembles a feign death spell. The body can be physically moved while the astral form is absent; the astral form will return to its body wherever it has been moved, provided it remains on a plane accessible from the Astral (an astral form cannot rejoin its body if that body is placed in the Ethereal, for example). The physical body is subject to normal damage, which the astral form is not aware of at the time the damage is inflicted.

Raelynn (Carissa) gestures to wheelchair, "Does Maya always need to use her chair or is she sometimes able to move without it?"

[Namsut (Master)] ON the Astral Plane there is no need for such impediments

[Namsut (Master)] Or on my own

Raelynn (Carissa) slight smile, "If only we were all so lucky."

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Did you find the tulip you were looking for? Was there anything special about it?

[Namsut (Master)] We did not find the object of our quest

[Raelynn (Carissa)] What was the reason for such a quest that meant crossing the planes?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (not sure how well I'm doing, sorry; day is catching up with me)

[Namsut (Master)] She was searching for a gift for me

Lemon has joined the game on Fri Oct 15 21:37:39 EDT 2021

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Hi Lemon!)

[Master] Raelynn moved 29'08".

[Master] Raelynn targets Namsut. Distance: 14'05"

Raelynn (Carissa) trying to not be too giddy, "So she'd cross the planes for you as well? That's so sweet."

[Raelynn (Carissa)] *that's so sweet

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (ugh that sounds more like her)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Hi Lemon)

[Lemon] Hello! It will take me a few minutes to catch up on chat but I'm here!

[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (running out of steam, others can jump in if you want and give me more ideas of whatever to say)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (TMO?)

[Craigh (TMO)] (trying to think of something to say)

[Craigh (TMO)] (that won't make things worse. ;) )

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (tell her she's cute to her face)

[Namsut (Master)] My rivers were all dammed And my stars all had their names There was nothing left to discover Till she came into my hands And I let her slip away

[Craigh (TMO)] Did you travel here physically then? Your silver cord didn't snap, did it?

[Namsut (Master)] I have no need for a silver cord

[Namsut (Master)] and Maya would not if we were not here

[Craigh (TMO)] (self-preservation dictates against such a course)

[Namsut (Master)] If we had gone together

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (am I understanding correctly? Maya needed a cord to come to Drillian?)

[Namsut (Master)] Would I be so lonely If I'd known I loved her

[Master] No

Raelynn (Carissa) tries to to squeal

[Master] The Astral plane and those powerful realms that lie beyond it are generally reached by two very different means. The traveler can reach this plane either by projecting his astral form into the plane or by physically entering the plane. Either method can be accomplished by spell or device, and each has similarities, advantages, and disadvantages. Unless otherwise noted, rules that apply to a traveler (as opposed to an astrally projecting or physical traveler) apply to both forms of travel.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Namsut, I'm a priestess of a goddess of love, and while you may not have elvish in you, she'd still hate to see anyone in love suffer. If I can help in anyway, I would be honored to do so.

[Craigh (TMO)] Grief is but love everlasting.

[Master] Projecting one's astral form is the healthiest method of traveling to the Astral plane. This method, using the astral spell separates the astral self from the traveler's body. The astral self, bound to its original body by a silver cord, can then enter the Astral plane and travel through it into the outer planes. Travel by this fashion has a great advantages in that the traveler does not risk his real body; if the astral form is slain or destroyed, the traveler's psyche returns to his original body.

[Craigh (TMO)] or was it surviving?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (nope still not quite computing for me)

[Namsut (Master)] We were here,

[Namsut (Master)] I could not travel

[Namsut (Master)] Maya took the only way she could find

[Craigh (TMO)] So, if I'm understanding right, assuming Maya could live this long, she'll be safe and sound back home?

[Craigh (TMO)] Her cord snapped, her psyche returned to her body?

[Namsut (Master)] This plane was her home

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh..

[Namsut (Master)] Her psyche did not return, the same Mist that prevents me from using my full powers prevents her from returning

Craigh (TMO) frowns, thinking it over.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] So her body is... no longer? But her astral self still exists?

Namsut (Master) nods sadly

[Namsut (Master)] Wouldn't make my greatest mistake (If I'd known I loved her) Wouldn't have my heart go and break (If I'd known I loved her) Night after night Like I can't ever escape, no (If I'd known I loved her) What if I'd known (If I'd known I loved her) What if I'd known (If I'd known I loved her) What if I'd known Would I be so lonely If I'd known I loved her

[Craigh (TMO)] Is there a way to build her a new body?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] So all is not lost. She's in the Astral Planes, yes? She can't return here, but she if she can survive in the Planes, she won't die?

[Namsut (Master)] I do not know

Raelynn (Carissa) smiles, "Well, there is a way to find out. Although where to look..."

[Namsut (Master)] There are many things that could have happened

[Namsut (Master)] and I will not know

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Where was she traveling to?

[Namsut (Master)] And I am in a lamp of my own making

Craigh (TMO) bites his tongue to stop from saying something.

[Namsut (Master)] She was searching for a way to bring me with her

[Craigh (TMO)] If you leave the Mist, do you think you can leave?

[Craigh (TMO)] this plane, I mean

[Namsut (Master)] I will not leave her behind

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (the chair is empty, right?)

[Namsut (Master)] (yes)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] But Maya is not here to leave behind now, is she?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I know it's very easy to lose yourself in grief over a loved one, but they wouldn't want you to do that. If they're truly lost, they'd want us to live our life, and if there was a hope of a reunion, they would not fault you for trying to find them again. You made this lamp, but this doesn't have to be how it ends, yes? Would Maya want that?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Raelynn: Persuasion check: (d20) [1d20=1] 1 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 15!!

Namsut (Master) looks at Raelynn with disappointment

[Namsut (Master)] (and DAMN)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Oooh man, like the mage again!)

[Namsut (Master)] (Thinking)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (As I said once before, she's VERY pretty! She can appeal to many!)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (or maybe empathetic, either or here)

[Namsut (Master)] (ok, so I think I have this for a very high intelligence to be certain she is not giving away her secret)

[Lemon] I have caught up, but have nothing to add at this particular moment

Namsut (Master) looks at Raelynn with disappointment when she says Maya is not here to leave behind now

[Lemon] I am back at the keyboard.

[Namsut (Master) (to Carissa only)] Rae notices a swift glance at the chest towards the stairs

[Namsut (Master)] She is not lost as long as she is in my heart

[Namsut (Master)] I'm a little older now And I've never lost my way Except that one fateful morning On that one fateful day And I've fallen down And I can't get out What if I'd known

Raelynn (Carissa) opens her mouth and closes it, thinking.

[Namsut (Master)] I will be here until there is a way for her to return

[Namsut (Master)] a decade a century

Raelynn (Carissa) nods slowly, "Well... she won't return without help. And we can't help you unless you help us..."

[Raelynn (Carissa)] If we brought Maya with us.... maybe we'd find her faster. I don't thinks she can find her way back alone without a cord.

[Namsut (Master)] The cord is the only way for the psyche to find its way back

[Namsut (Master)] ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHBmpGLGyk8

[Craigh (TMO)] Can she follow someone else's cord?

[Namsut (Master)] Where would such a cord lead to?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Is it only possible to travel with a cord?

[Namsut (Master)] they connect a person to their body

[Craigh (TMO)] Well, if someone here projected into the Astral, and found her, could they then lead her back here?

[Namsut (Master)] (that is a no to Carissa see ideas above, Branwyn has learned those things in her investigations)

[Craigh (TMO)] (way to raise expectations there Craigh)

[Namsut (Master)] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.AstralPlane

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Um, sorry to interrupt, I don't know much about these things, but if there is a way for us to find her, wouldn't you want to know what had happened to her? If she was ok? Where she was? Even if it was no longer possible for her to return?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bixi Fizzlebang: Persuasion check: (d20) [1d20=5] 5 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 11!!

Namsut (Master) looks at Craigh, that would be suitable but that is also why she cannot return

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Because she needs someone to go get her.

Namsut (Master) looks at the small gnome in the back of the room

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] If you wanted that, and there was a way for me to give that to you, I would do so.

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) does awkward curtsey thing

[Namsut (Master)] I want to know

[Namsut (Master)] What if I'd known Would I be so lonely If I'd known I loved her

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) looks at the others. "Is that something we could do? Is it possible?"

[Craigh (TMO)] If we knew the magic to do so, probably.

[Namsut (Master)] I cannot go after her

[Namsut (Master) (to Carissa only)] again that glance to the chest

Raelynn (Carissa) nods, "Understandable, but some of us would be willing."

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) tries to be as polite as gnome-anly possible. "Namsut, is there anything we can do to help ease your pain?"

[Namsut (Master)] If there is a way for you to go (looks at Bixi) then

[Raelynn (Carissa)] How did Maya go? By spell?

[Namsut (Master)] Yes

[Raelynn (Carissa)] One she cast herself? Or one you helped her cast?

[Master] another hint for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfTfXLLJlzM

[Namsut (Master)] Only the traveler can cast such a spell

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (So we gotta free her from the bottle/lamp/thing)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh... but we're not all mages.

[Craigh (TMO)] That means I probably can't go, unless it's on a scroll or real easy spell.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] And I don't think my Goddess has a way for me to go...

[Master] what did she say about her lamp

[Craigh (TMO)] (she wants us to rub her?)

[Namsut (Master)] (LOL LOL )

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (That it's phenomenal cosmic power but itty bitty living space?)

[Namsut (Master)] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIDWgqDBNXA

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm, would it help if we went somewhere with more sunshine? No one would fault you for bringing... anything you wanted with you.

[Namsut (Master)] It is not sunshine it is the Mist

[Namsut (Master)] Anyone can use a scroll, waves at the shelves on the wall, but they do no good here in this Mist

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh, well, yes. I meant somewhere without Mist. Sunshine doesn't exist in the Mist, but there's a really nice Inn nearby where it's sunny!

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I was able to predict the weather!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oooh... although if we went... we'd definitely need someone as lovely and loyal as Namsut to look over us.

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) is slightly giddy

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You said this was a lamp of your own making. These people are practically begging to help you but you would rather wallow in your own misery.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I bet Namsut's abilities would be INCREDIBLE in the sun. I mean more incredible. Which I can't even imagine but would love to see!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I cannot help those who do not wish to help themselves

[Namsut (Master)] What would you do to help?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Destroy this lamp

[Namsut (Master)] At what price?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I do not recall anyone here asking for anything for themselves

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If in the process of aiding you, we may learn from you I myself would consider it a mutually beneficial arrangement

[Namsut (Master)] There is always a price

Raelynn (Carissa) claps hands together, "Love stories are the best."

[Namsut (Master)] I have paid with my heart

[Namsut (Master)] What would you wish to learn from me?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] None of us can travel to the astral plane ourselves and so to be able to do that we would need your aid

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh! And if we go, you'd have to help protect us somehow. Or help us find a way to be protected.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have a medallion to travel to a certain plane and a scroll to hell but travelling the planes at will? We do not have that skill

Namsut (Master) watching listening considering

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I wouldn't want anything specific. Just traveling in itself would be such a wonderful and interesting experience, and if we were able to help you in any way, Namsut, I would be honored

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Umm, I'm still not sure if I should, but there is a plane I think I need to visit anyways.

[Master] Namsut moved 13'06".

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) looks curiously at Raelynn

[Namsut (Master)] (she has become human sized and steps down off of the bed)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I wish I was standing next to TMO so I could wink wink nudge nudge)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You have decided?

[Namsut (Master)] I am interested

Craigh (TMO) is watching

[Namsut (Master)] If you can bring us to a place where we can reach the Astral Plane

[Namsut (Master)] I will help you reach there

[Namsut (Master)] so we can look for Maya

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) smiles and does another incredibly awkward curtsey. She is not getting better at it.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You do have my deepest sympathies. When I had lost my love my heart felt like it was ripped into a thousand pieces, but I had to act. Otherwise our time together would have lost its meaning. You are making a good decision for yourself and your heart I believe.

[Namsut (Master)] Who was your love?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] My husband. I got him back and fulfilled debt I owed for that gift

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But I had to act to get him back.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You have heard Raelynn and Bixi and Craigh. We will all help you in this to the best of our ability

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Let Raelynn and Bixi help you

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] And if we have time during our travel to the unmisted area, I would love to hear more about Maya if you want to share. It seems like she was a very special person.

[Namsut (Master)] (checking on a particular spell)

Namsut (Master) looks at Branwyn

[Namsut (Master)] Do you swear on your love that you will bring us to a place were we can travel the Planes?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I do swear

[Namsut (Master)] Your people are persuasive

[Branwyn (Lisa)] They are good people

Raelynn (Carissa) gives innocent smile

Craigh (TMO) smiles.

[Master] Namsut moved 20'07".

Namsut (Master) moves to the large chest

Namsut (Master) looks over at Branwyn, you can bring us all out of this lamp?

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) backs up, so Namsut knows she's definitely not trying to peek

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bixi Fizzlebang moved 9'08".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes, but you cannot lower this ice wall?

[Namsut (Master)] No more than any common jinn can escape their brass palaces

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (...the entire tower is the lamp?)

[Namsut (Master)] Beside I would leave the protections in place to return to

[Namsut (Master)] for Maya to return to

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we're just missing Talwin on the map?)

[Craigh (TMO)] Huh. Guess rubbing this lamp doesn't work though.

Craigh (TMO) rubs his fingertip on his leg.

Namsut (Master) looks at Craigh and smiles

[Namsut (Master)] (yes to Lisa)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Howard, take Bixi and Raelynn back please

Namsut (Master) reaches down and opens the chest

Craigh (TMO) levers himself back to his feet.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Yes Branwyn

Namsut (Master) carefully lifting up a frozen body

Namsut (Master) moves it over to the chair

[Master] Namsut moved 10'06".

[Master] Namsut targets Raelynn. Distance: 3'06"

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Come take hold of me a ...

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat)

Howard Plum (Lisa) pauses

Craigh (TMO) shakes his head at himself.

Raelynn (Carissa) quietly, "Wait wait, not yet."

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Didn't she say her body wasn't here anymore???)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (she kept looking at the chest when she talked to Rae)

[Craigh (TMO)] (that's the chest Craigh tried to open, ain't it?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (no one said she was being honest :) )

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (that is a plot twist I did not expect.)

[Master] yes to TMO

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (yup)

[Craigh (TMO)] (lol - figures I'd pick that one)

Master BOWS

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (well it was closest to the door for some reason...)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (probably good you didn't get it open)

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Ummm ... we should go.

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Ready Bixi and Raelynn?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I think so?

Craigh (TMO) moves around to the front. "May I look? Memorize what she looks like?"

Howard Plum (Lisa) takes hold of them and casts

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh, I suppose...

[Raelynn (Carissa)] See you soon, Namsut!

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh moved 18'00".

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum casts a spell against : Dimension Door: I can teleport up to (30*8) 240 yards away.

[Craigh (TMO)] (don't forget the elevation difference!)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will take Talwin and be back in a moment.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn casts a spell against : Dimension Door: I can teleport up to (30*12) 360 yards away.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (So... any chance we're close to the end of the evening? I know I was super late, but I am also super tired.)

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh moved 5'01".

[Master] yes to Lemon

[Master] last set of spells

Branwyn (Lisa) takes Talwin out to the group and then comes back in

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=9] 9 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!

[Master] everyone will be outside of the tower

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn casts a spell against : Dimension Door: I can teleport up to (30*12) 360 yards away.

[Master] what is Craigh looking for in particular?

[Craigh (TMO)] what she looks like. So that *if* we meet her in the Astral, he'll recognize her for certain

[Master] then yes that is accomplished

[Craigh (TMO)] in case of shapeshifting evilness

[Craigh (TMO)] and, um, Craigh has the Change Self spell. He can make himself look like her if needed.

[Craigh (TMO)] brb

[Master] grins

[Master] and Branwyn brings everyone out with one last spell

[Master] all are gathered there

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn casts a spell against : Dimension Door: I can teleport up to (30*12) 360 yards away.

[Master] Time of Day: 10:32 AM. Day 16 Mid ___ tre, Bel {Mid Fall} 16th, 351 SKR.

[Indigo (Lisa)] You're back!

Indigo (Lisa) looks at Namsut "Hello"

Namsut (Master) nods Hello

[Raelynn (Carissa)] We're going on a love quest!!

[Indigo (Lisa)] Love quest?

[Namsut (Master)] and now Lemon as you need to leave, we will continue a little longer, but pick up next week approaching the Inn of the Lost Eagle

Craigh (TMO) laughs.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Better than a lot of other kinds of quests

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Yes! We're going to go find Namsut's love! Isn't that exciting??

[Lemon] Next week looks the same for me... will be late if on at all. Following week should be back to normal

[Lemon] Goodnight friends!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (night!)

[Master] They will drag you off into he Astral Plane

[Indigo (Lisa)] (Goodnight Lemon!)

Lemon has left the game on Fri Oct 15 22:51:55 EDT 2021

[Master] grins

[Indigo (Lisa)] Should we go get supplies and stuff? How far are we going?

[Master] I am here to continue as you wish, we are going to click the time to the Inn at the start of next session

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Umm, I dunno. We have to go to the Inn first because we can't travel to the Astral Planes in the Mist.

Branwyn (Lisa) rumples Indigo's hair "Farther than you've ever been"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so we are done or want to continue to talk to her? Can we talk much when we get to astral travelling? We don't know who Maya was, where she was from, what kind of mage she was or anything)

[Craigh (TMO)] Do we need any special equipment? Is it dangerous?

[Master] while you are traveling you can talk all you want

[Master] that is the key

[Master] I will make sure the pages are updated for you on the site

[Master] 99% of it is there now

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I would think Maya had to be a very high level water mage to have traveled and found Namsut. Unless Namsut was wandering around and just found her)

[Master] so you understand what you have heard as she was speaking earlier and on the way to the Inn

[Master] what she said interspersed with her love lorn comments

[Master] does anyone understand the tulip? and why?

[Craigh (TMO)] nope

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The most known meaning of tulips is perfect and deep love.

[Master] and Drillian is famous for them

[Master] with magical crossbreeds

[Carissa] (you spelled Denmark wrong)

[Master] LOL

[Lisa] After this is over we can take them to the Lyon Estates

[Master] and Lisa and TMO went on an adventure for tulips

[Craigh (TMO)] Yeah, but I'm not sure why she needed a silver cord to get a tulip from down the road

[Lisa] I thought it was a panic maneuver when the Mist swept in

[Master] yes

[Lisa] you would think they would have just done a quick teleport rather than an astral plane jump though

[Craigh (TMO)] that's us - rescuing people from their own stupidity. :P

[Lisa] unless she was thinking to get Namsut home and she jumped and Namsut didn't make it

[Master] and now you know why the tower was the first step on your travels around the Planes

[Lisa] yes

[Master] So this weekend I will double check the Astral Plane page and add in the appropriate spells for traveling the planes

[Master] so that you an review those next Friday or before

[Carissa] sounds good

[Carissa] my headache is killing me so assuming this is a good time to say goodnight :)
