[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

Carissa has joined the game on Fri Oct 29 18:59:42 EDT 2021

[Master] Hello

[Carissa] Hello! Finishing latest summary. Figured I can at least log on while I do that

[Carissa] Any Halloween plans?

[Master] none that I know of, we will be going over to my sisters to sit in her driveway and I will drink and talk as they give out candy

[Carissa] lol doesn't sound like a horrible thing to do

[Master] Tomorrow night we are having a dinner party - doing a breakfast for dinner thing

[Carissa] going to dress up for either of those?

[Carissa] Breakfast for dinner is the best breakfast.

[Master] supposed to wear PJs for the dinner, but I do not sleep in anything so ....

[Master] I will have to make concessions

[Carissa] Birthday suit is still a suit? :P

[Master] grins

[Carissa] Although if you have guests, they may not appreciate that, lol

[Master] I am over at someone else’s house so....

[Master] Doing a quick restart

[Master] ==== Gaming session started: Fri Oct 29 19:05:44 EDT 2021 ====

[Master] There was an error popping up

[Master] should fix it

Carissa has joined the game on Fri Oct 29 19:06:09 EDT 2021

[Carissa] Either it did OR we'll be plagued for the rest of the night...

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Oct 29 19:06:49 EDT 2021

[Carissa] Hi Lisa!

[Master] Hey Lisa

[Lisa] Hello! :)

[Master] I hope you both are relaxed

[Lisa] sure

[Carissa] Mostly. Busy week, but today was a slow one!

[Carissa] There.

[Master] I am here

[Carissa] And finally plan to get to Yellen this weekend probably

[Master] excellent

[Carissa] lol no mean just posted updated summary

[Master] thank you

[Carissa] Probably could have done more putting pieces together, but figure if I just link the correct page multiple times, it works just as well ;)

[Master] It will be fine I am sure

[Master] Carissa did you see the spells?

[Carissa] Lisa's list or the page updated ones for Astral travel or...?

[Master] grins

[Master] IF you are ready there is an encounter that I have ready

[Master] Or you can wait for others to be here so they can experience also

[Master] Lemon is on the way, not sure ETA for TMO

[Master] Other than Lara would be it

[Carissa] Lara just late?

[Master] Tagging both of them now

[Lisa] give them a bit to respond and then we'll do what we need to do

[Carissa] got my water and snack, hopefully they respond but ready whenever

[Master] Lemon has poor time management skills so at least a half hour

[Master] So I am guessing start at 8 so at least 20 minutes

[Master] So I will go refill water and snacks too

[Master] brb

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

TMO has joined the game on Fri Oct 29 19:38:29 EDT 2021

[Carissa] TMO ETA -1 minute

[TMO] sorry, had a couple of minor errands on the way home

[Lisa] Hi TMO!

[TMO] hola

[Carissa] How dare you have other things to do??

[Carissa] Also hi!

[Lisa] lol

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Master] grins

[TMO] well, one of the errands involved bringing home dinner

[Master] Food is good

[TMO] Popeye’s. kfc was out of chicken

[Carissa] Don't eat chicken often, but Popeye’s is better

[TMO] meh. fried chicken all the same to me. not the top of my list

[Carissa] Or at least it was back when I was in high school.... so it might have changed in the many years since, lol

[Lisa] now you make me want to eat fried chicken. Maybe tomorrow :)

[Carissa] with waffles?? I'm told that's the only way to eat it

[Lisa] I don't have waffles. Would have to order that. I have a bag od popcorn chicken in my freezer right now though

[Carissa] Now THAT is the kind of fried chicken I'd eat. You don't need more.

[Carissa] than that

[Master] do you have a waffle iron?

[Lisa] no

[Lisa] I have only ever used a waffle iron in hotel lobby breakfast places

[TMO] frozen Eggos to go with frozen nuggets

[Lisa] mainly as a novelty item

[Master] I have a Mickey Mouse face one and I have a small 4 inch circle one

[Carissa] I have a tiny one. Only used it once. Clearly don't need a real one

[TMO] I have a Millennium Falcon waffle iron

[Master] I use the small one for eggs

[Lisa] real good fried chicken and waffles is a huge meal toss syrup on all that and it's a lot. Good but a lot

[Carissa] Huh never considered that...

[Carissa] lol true and fair

[Lisa] waffle eggs?

[Master] scramble the eggs, add in shredded cheese maybe bits of bacon or ham

[Master] and chaffles

[Master] they are nice quick hand meals

[Lisa] doesn't make a mess of the waffle iron?

[Master] just wipes clean

[Lisa] you could make an omelet in a frying pan

[Master] I do that far more often

[TMO] I haven't had eggs in a while. Last time I made some I did the omelet in a mug

[Master] so moving forward so that we summon Lemon

[Carissa] Lemon Lemon Lemon

[Master] you have a featureless plane in front of you

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 moved 12'08".

[Indigo (Lisa)] Hello!

[Indigo (Lisa)] There's a person!

[Carissa] N'laea: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=4] 4 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] Are you a person?

[Indigo (Lisa)] I'm a person

[Indigo (Lisa)] We're all people.

[Indigo (Lisa)] Have you seen anyone named Maya?

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] Not everyone is

[N'laea (Carissa)] (Githyanki?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] Who isn't?

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] Who is a Maya

[Indigo (Lisa)] Well I guess not

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 moved 33'03".

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 targets Indigo. Distance: 0'11"

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 targets Bixi Fizzlebang. Distance: 4'05"

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 targets N'laea. Distance: 2'00"

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 targets Raelynn. Distance: 4'11"

[Indigo (Lisa)] She is a human who got lost here. We're trying to find her

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 casts a spell against Indigo: Color Spray: I blind, knock out, or stun (1d6) [1d6=5] 5 people in a 5'x20'x20' cone!

[Indigo (Lisa)] ARGH!!!

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=17] 17 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!

[N'laea (Carissa)] N'laea: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=9] 9 - ROLL FAILED against 13!!

[N'laea (Carissa)] Raelynn: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=8] 8 - ROLL FAILED against 14!!

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] Without Bixi here that would give Craigh and Branwyn in the arc to make saves also

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=13] 13 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 8!!

[N'laea (Carissa)] (the tiny gnome was their shield earlier? impressive)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (LOL)

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 19!!

[Craigh (TMO)] (neener neener!)

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] So you get to react before he can do anything

[Indigo (Lisa)] (no effects on saving people?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (are Nae and Rae blind, knocked out, or stunned?)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (or all three?)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d3) [1d3=3] 3

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] all stunned works

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] and Craigh Branwyn Indigo?

[Lisa] Indigo targets Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1. Distance: 0'11"

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] You can react before he gets to move

[N'laea (Carissa)] (made their saves)

[Indigo (Lisa)] What'd you do that for?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo: Attack: Military Pick: ((+13-(d20+1))-2+2) [1d20=19] -7 [MODIFIED (+2)]. HITS Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (AC FINAL: 10)!!!

[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo: Damage v SM: Military Pick: ((1d4+1)+3+2) [1d4=3] 9 [MODIFIED (+2)] added to: Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 7 (-9) - Heavily Wounded

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh casts a spell against : Disawareness*: When this spell is invoked, the caster begins to radiate an aura of unremarkability. Any person viewing him for the duration of the spell sees nothing unusual about him and, if questioned later, retains only vague recollections of seeing someone. He is unable to identify the caster to put any specific features to him. In order for the spell to be effective, the caster must be in or near a group of four or more people. (The caster could sneak into a guarded area if he tagged along with a group on legitimate business, but not unaccompanied.) This spell is most effective when used in crowded areas, such as city streets or marketplaces.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would advise you to stop your casting before further harm comes to you.

[Lisa] Branwyn targets Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1. Distance: 6'07"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she'll wait and not hit him yet)

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] Ok, so on his move

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 moved 38'00".

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 no longer targets Indigo.

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 no longer targets N'laea.

[Master] Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 no longer targets Raelynn.

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] He moves incredibly fast

[Tall Thin Yellow skinned human #1 (Master)] (movement of 96

[N'laea (Carissa)] (must be smart)

[Master] and it out of sight

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you Indigo

[Craigh (TMO)] (just so Bob can prepare, Craigh is going to try to backstab the dude if he gets the chance. normally you can't during combat, I know, but hopefully the disawareness *might* give him a chance.)

[Master] Yes to TMO

[N'laea (Carissa)] (unstunned now?)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Why'd he go and do that? We were nice

[Indigo (Lisa)] N'laea? Raelynn? Are you okay?

Lemon has joined the game on Fri Oct 29 20:14:26 EDT 2021

N'laea (Carissa) shakes head, "That was unpleasant."

[Indigo (Lisa)] (Hi Glittery Lemon!)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (assuming so)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (Hi Lemon!)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (May the glitter be with you)

[Master] Careful or it will be and Also with you if you get to close to her

[Master] Bixi Fizzlebang moved 39'00".

[N'laea (Carissa)] (lol isn't that how glitter works? doesn't matter if we're states apart)

[Master] chuckles

[Indigo (Lisa)] (should I have entered a -1 for Indigo's attack?)

[Craigh (TMO)] (I'm afraid.. I'm in the same state)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (so doomed to be glittery)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (it was nice knowing you, TMO)

[Craigh (TMO)] (noooooooooooooooooo!!!)

[Master] He hit by so much I did not check the rest of the modifiers Lisa

[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol - but -1 to attack but regular damage?)

[Master] Ahh I should double check that yes

[Lemon] Hello friends! Your tiny shield has returned! And learned that there is no such thing as "a very small amount of glitter"

[Indigo (Lisa)] (I just wanted to make him to not be able to cast. Didn't mean to heavily would him - good thing it wasn't Talwin or Brer! Dead mage in Astral Plane)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)

[N'laea (Carissa)] (lol)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (cannot type tonight)

[Master] Yes to it should be a minus one to damage also

[Indigo (Lisa)] (ok thanks)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Is Namsut still here? Can we ask her what that was?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All right. Now that is out of the way. Should we start looking for Maya?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sure)

Namsut (Master) cradling the frozen body

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Namsut, do you know what that was? Or why it attacked us?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Excluding myself from the "us" of course. The glitter protected me)

[Namsut (Master)] Githyanki are always attacking

[Namsut (Master)] like jackals they circle and then slip in to snap

[N'laea (Carissa)] For fun? Or just mad at the world...er plane?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Would we be able to talk to them? And if not, can you tell us if you know if they have any weaknesses?

[Indigo (Lisa)] What's a githyanki? He looked human to me. Just yellow

[N'laea (Carissa)] (he talked to us)

[Namsut (Master)] They are just angry people

[N'laea (Carissa)] Ah so they consider themselves people. Good to know.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Yeah, I meant more like, talk reason into him, talk him into NOT circling us like jackals... that kind of thing)

[Indigo (Lisa)] He's probably really angry now!

[Namsut (Master)] They were enslaved for a thousand years by the mind flayers

[Craigh (TMO)] Will he be back?

[N'laea (Carissa)] Well that is a good reason to be angry.

[Namsut (Master)] Be careful if they grab you

[N'laea (Carissa)] What happens if they do?

[Namsut (Master)] At least here they do not have their dragons

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Also, before it comes back... any quick tips on casting in the featureless plane we are in? I don't want to try to blind an angry yellow person and discover some really bad side effects)

[Craigh (TMO)] (btw, the spell description doesn't have a duration)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] ... dragons??

[N'laea (Carissa)] (besides Lisa's notes... we know about as much as you for casting here so you just have to find out :) )

[Master] Yes to TMO until you dismiss it or it breaks

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Yeah, I'm really good, I blind stuff forever)

[Craigh (TMO)] (awesome! this is staying up)

[Namsut (Master)] The Githyanki Warlords ride Red Dragons when on the Prime Plane

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Well that sounds terrifying

[Indigo (Lisa)] You have to know what kind of spell it is and see what it says on the website

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Um... any tips on what to do if they grab us?

[Indigo (Lisa)] Or just cast and find out

[Namsut (Master)] Cut off your arm

[Indigo (Lisa)] That's not good

[N'laea (Carissa)] But what happens?

[Namsut (Master)] They can plane shift like many people who live here on the Planes

[Namsut (Master)] So if they grab you they can take you where they want

[Namsut (Master)] Unlike humans who only priests and mages can do that all of the Gith can

N'laea (Carissa) glances at Indigo, "Well, we'll be careful then."

[N'laea (Carissa)] (not that our mages/priests would be much better off, lol)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Do they have the same Prime Plane as we do?

[Namsut (Master)] There are countless Prime Planes

[Namsut (Master)] You must know where you want to go

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Is it possible that Maya escaped to another plane, or is she definitely here?

[Namsut (Master)] I am searching for her

[Namsut (Master)] I do not know if she could leave here

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] What can we do to best help you find her right now?

[Namsut (Master)] I just need time and space to concentrate

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Ah, a protect the caster quest. Now I'm on familiar ground)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (better than the lead them to safety quest)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (absolutely)

[Namsut (Master)] other questions?

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) shakes head nervously.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Not from me...

[Indigo (Lisa)] Sounds like she doesn't need us much.

Lisa has left the game on Fri Oct 29 20:40:23 EDT 2021

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Oct 29 20:40:40 EDT 2021

[Raelynn (Carissa)] What other things do we need to look out for here?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Normally we like trying to greet people but that might not be wise if they're all like him...

[Indigo (Lisa)] Shhhhhh! She's concentrating

[Indigo (Lisa)] :)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oops. Maybe should have asked her before....

[Indigo (Lisa)] (why do Branwyn and N'laea have thumbs in the right corner of their avatars?)

[Master] Craigh, Indigo, Bixi Fizzlebang, N'laea, Branwyn and Raelynn moved 10'02".

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (thought for N’laea it was from sword, dunno for Bran)

[Master] Those are bags to show you have inventory

[Indigo (Lisa)] (oh. looked like a thumb to me)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] What did you think of trying to go where Maya's silver cord was cut to start with?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol I can see it)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (test)

[Master] was that directed to whom Lisa?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (yep)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (the group)

[Craigh (TMO)] (Craigh is here, but maintaining a low profile, so as not to test his spell's effectiveness)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we can sit here and wait or we can go somewhere)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (figured less boring to pick a place)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (ah sorry thought it was Namsut)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (*to heR)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] It sounded as good as anything to me, but should we move around? Will that make it harder for Namsut?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she is concentrating don't think she is going anywhere)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Can she protect herself while she is concentrating?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I wonder how long it'll take her... er, does time even pass here?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (an attack will break her concentration but I think she can likely handle herself)

[Master] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FzCWLOHUes

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (if some people want to stay that's fine - I would like to explore a bit myself)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol the song)

[Master] Food and Drink: Neither physical nor astral forms have any need to eat or drink while on this plane. About 300 subjective years must pass before the traveler feels hungry. Food and drink are often brought into the Astral, but only for use in the planes at the end of the journey.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I wouldn't mind a little exploring, I just want to make sure we are doing whatever is best helping Namsut. I don't want her to think we're not going to try our best

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You can ask her if you wish. I don't think standing here is helping.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] I don't want to interrupt her concentration again... I don't think I helped her much last time

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) nervously laughs a little

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All right then. Think of where Maya was when her silver cord was cut.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo. Concentrate!

Namsut (Master) looks up

Indigo (Lisa) scrunches his eyes closed and thinks

Branwyn (Lisa) closes her eyes

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (obviously not paying attention to the Marid)

Namsut (Master) watching

Raelynn (Carissa) also watching

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Are we still holding hands?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (likely broken during that combat)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (my guys are thinking thoughts)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Oh, yeah, that makes sense)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (agree)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I guess I'm going to think the thoughts too, but I'm not closing my eyes)

[Namsut (Master)] (BRB Nyrma calling)

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (k 0 going to run to get another drink then)

[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Namsut (Master)] back sorry

[Master] was a false alarm

[Master] but for Branwyn and Indigo holding hands and THINKING

[Master] the rest are doing what?

Craigh (TMO) moves to hold on and go with them

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I'm also THINKING about where maya's silver cord was cut... and I will definitely hold someone's hand first if someone is offering. Just in case.)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (watching)

[Master] If everyone has read the section on Movement in the Astral Plane

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

[Master] and yes this page needs anchors badly

[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I have read it and it seems extremely problematic and I hope if I bounce of something and can't find anything to bounce back on, that people will be able to think of me and save me)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thought we were doing that mental movement thing)

[Master] yes to Lisa

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Otherwise I guess bye Bixi)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Yeah, but once we start fighting, won't that effect our movement?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes so maybe don't move until everyone else is dead)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (casters don't have to move much unless they are not casting)

[Master] Branwyn has the highest intelligence

[Master] 10 yards per minute (30 feet per melee round) per Intelligence point

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (though it does not always appear so)

[Master] HAH

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (test)

[Craigh (TMO)] (lol)

[Master] I am about to ZOOM Branwyn and indigo and Craigh

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (But if someone goes up and punches the yellow dude with their sword, won't they go flying backwards?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Or am I understanding this wrong?)

[Master] it is a combination both Lemon

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Craigh zooming too or you meant Bixi?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Unless I don't get to ZOOM because I was thinking with my eyes open)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] )lol)

[Master] I had Branwyn and Indigo and Craigh holding onto each other

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (k)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I don't get to zoom because I didn't hold hands?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Rae's not going to leave Nam’s side, N’laea will stay as precaution)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (That's fine if so... let's work out the scientific process or whatever)

[Master] you would go at a different pace based on difference in Int

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (then have Bixi grab on if the elves are too scared to go :P )

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Well that's terrifying. No thank you to that.)

[Master] So Branwyn etc. concentrate and ZOOM

[Master] N'laea moved 18'09".

[Master] Raelynn moved 19'03".

[Master] Branwyn moved 19'11".

[Master] Indigo moved 11'10".

[Master] Craigh moved 21'01".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we're not going to learn how this works until we do it)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (figured it was more to protect Namsut; seemed bad idea to leave them alone if she's concentrating)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Yeah, and I definitely thought the thoughts, so I might be lost now. ooops)

Branwyn (Lisa) opens her eyes and looks around

[Master] so Branwyn has a 19 intelligence so that means 190 yards of movement in one round

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Can I just think about where Namsut is and go back to her? Because I don't want to be lost alone)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes you can do that)

[Master] 15 int for Bixi means 150 yards of movement

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Well great, I'm going to do that then, because now Bixi has terrified herself.)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (marid was freezing people at a thought I think she is fine)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Oh, wait, can I see them from where I am)

Indigo (Lisa) opens his eyes "Are we there yet?"

Indigo (Lisa) grins

[Master] so Branwyn has moved quickly towards a point of nothingness

[Master] and then yes there is a small gnome back behind you

[Master] but the Marid is not visible

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Ok, then I will THINK about catching up to Branwyn)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (do we know we got where we wanted or did the movement rate perhaps only get us part way there?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (And panic just a little bit)

[Master] you do not know where you are

[Master] it is easier to cross the Astral than to find objects within it. Travelers wishing to spend more time in the Astral merely desire it.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Did we ever find out why Maya came here? I can't remember)

[Indigo (Lisa)] (so if we think again and don't move then we have arrived)

[Master] that would be a good test Lisa

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Did I catch up with my thinking about catching up?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We should wait for Bixi

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Um... I think I need to hold someone's hand. I guess being short doesn't work out well here either.

[Master] Yes to Bixi catching up as Indigo and Branwyn consider their next move

[Master] Bixi Fizzlebang moved 13'03".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Very nice Bixi!

Branwyn (Lisa) looks around for color pools or anything at all

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=6] 6 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 19!!

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) grabs whoever has an available hand, arm, whatever

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bixi Fizzlebang: Alertness check: (d20) [1d20=2] 2 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 14!!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'm not sure if we made it all the way there. If we try the same thought and do not move then we can assume we are where we wanted to be. Make sense?

[Master] I am going to say that you do not see any color pool nearby but Branwyn has a glimmer of the idea that maybe that is because you need to think about what type of color pool you are searching for

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hmmm ... but I see nothing here. I really hope we don't have to think of a color pool to see one...

Branwyn (Lisa) thinks of seeing a green pool off to the right of her a few yards

[Master] now make your check

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (which?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (does she have to specify what shade of green? lol)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (can't find astral plane page)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (what check?)

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

[Master] Observation

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 19!!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Happy Hunting Grounds or Tartarus. Neither sounds great :) )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (jeeze)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (happy hunting grounds is better than hell)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Nine Hells is Ruby! Apparently specify type of hell as well ;) )

[Master] so Yes Branwyn can sense that there is a green portal towards 2 o'clock but it it not visible

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thx Lemon!)

[Master] Astral Travel Times 1d6 + 6 hours to a color pool/portal to another plane or different part of Astral 10 x 1d4 hours to a part of the Astral visited before 50 x 1d10 to a part of the Astral never visited before

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (and how do you differentiate rust from russet?? they're pretty much the same)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (rust is orangey and russet it potatoey?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (hmm okay good point)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (oooh happy hunting grounds has animals and stuff! look into it if you find it!)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol! Everyone try not to think of potatoes)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I think there is a green color pool to the northeast. I feel it but can't see it. It must be far away

Craigh (TMO) tries to keep an eye out behind Branwyn and Indigo, just in case

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Let's try again to see if we can go where Maya's cord was cut and see if we stay here or keep moving.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (None of these but one has a clickable link. That makes me very suspicious)

[Master] so that green color pool is (1d6) [1d6=6] 6+ 6 hours away

[Master] so 12 hours of travel

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (just means it wasn't updated)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (or pages created....yet)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I mean we have 300 years before we get hungry so... what's 12 hours?)

[Master] no this is all from that same Astral Page

[Master] I just have it open in like five tabs set to different sections

Branwyn (Lisa) takes everyone's hands again and concentrates

[Master] as I said it really needs anchor links

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (the more I google read about the Happy Hunting Grounds, the more I wanna go. Can we add it to our trip list?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sure why not?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (The Beastlands is a plane of nature and animals. Peaceful alpine forests and groves of giant mushrooms can be found here. A varied climate exists across the plane, providing a suitable environment for many species of animals and plants.)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (also want to move there IRL from the sounds of it, thanks)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (LOL)

[Master] you are taking that cloak back in the third story arc

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Yeah, I just meant the different planes don't have clickable links. Except Hades. Which makes me suspicious. Like we don't get to go anywhere fun)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (that was confusing if it was part of Arvador or not; sweet)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Oooooh, yes to the Beastlands. I could make so many animal friends)

[Master] OH for Lemon, there will be more popping up now that the group is researching things

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Hades was last updated in 2016. Which means nothing because Bob plans years in advance)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (hades is a popular place - we run into priests that worship hades etc.)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (makes sense they had a page)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol good point)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Ok.... but I'm still suspicious lol)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (if Lemon really wants to visit there, we have some stolen goods from Hades worshippers we can probably return as well)

[Master] so there are 720 movement CLICKs go get to the color pool from where you are

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (including a chalice)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (No thanks, I want the one with the animal friends)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (Cerberus is an animal. Sorta)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The color pool is too far from here for Maya to have reached if her cord was cut here

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Something tells me that it wouldn’t be an animal anymore as soon as I tried to cast something on it.)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] :)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Should we try thinking of Maya's cord again and see if we get closer? Maybe she went to the pool before she was lost?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes let us think of where Maya's cord was cut again

Branwyn (Lisa) reaches our her hands, pauses and then closes her eyes

[Master] CLICK

Lisa has left the game on Fri Oct 29 21:39:12 EDT 2021

[Master] WOW

[Master] see how far she went!

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Oct 29 21:39:27 EDT 2021

[Craigh (TMO)] (just one click is all it takes)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Do y'all know that maybe Dr. Seuss book, "I can read with my eyes shut?" I now just keep thinking "I can think with my eyes open!"

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol poor Lisa)

[Master] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPAbx5kgCJo

[Lisa] (kLoOge picks fun times to kick me)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (do we feel any movement?)

[Master] No to movement as far as you can tell but you are in the grey void far away from anything currently

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (pools aren't permanent, right?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Can you tell if the pool is closer?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will try

Branwyn (Lisa) concentrates on the green pool

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=8] 8 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 19!!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (on seeing it - not going there)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (have to be careful in this place)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (anyone can do this right? someone could think of seeing the closest color pool to us couldn't they?)

[Master] Yes to Lisa

[Master] anyone can think of a place it is the Int that controls the speed

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (okay but are pool permanent? if not, would Branwyn know that?)

[Master] grins

[Master] I am hoping you are not waiting on my answer to that

[Master] grins

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I was waiting to see if looking to see the green pool showed it at the same distance as before)

[Master] slightly closer

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (yes and no, but I thought I read they moved, and if Branwyn knows that, then if a portal was near Maya, if may not be the one she sees now)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so we did move again)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (moved and/or disappeared)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (continuing my thought, not yours to clarify)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Either we did or the pool did. I... am not sure that I like the astral plane lol)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I thought there were multiple color pools of the same type scattered around the astral plane but they drop you into different places on that plane)

[Master] yes to Lisa

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Do any of our characters know that?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so you could drop into the astral plane and see a green pool and dive into a meadow. The next time you land in a different part of the astral see a different green pool and land in a forest)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but I thought the pools were stationary. except silver cord pools that are where you land if you used one)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (I might be getting pools and portals confused then)

[Master] yes to all of the above

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (sorry carry on, was just worried Branwyn would be looking for a pool that no longer existed)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she's just experimenting and trying to figure stuff out at this point)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] ( just picked a random color - a blue pool could be 10 feet away - she just picked green at random)

[Master] you would see if you that close

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (good to know!)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (lol yes knew that for this pool, just meant for later search :) )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (the thing I don't get with the movement is it like a teleport that you don't feel or rapid travel that you would feel)

[Master] You "feel" the movement with Mental Movement but you go so rapidly that it is hard to tell

[Master] It is not like popping out and in

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Okay. Let's try this again. Indigo can you drop a coin here? Then we will think of going to where Maya's cord was cut again.

Indigo (Lisa) digs around for a copper coin and drops it

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ready?

Branwyn (Lisa) concentrates again

Craigh (TMO) holds on

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) also holds on

[Master] and you MOVE

[Master] you do move away from the coin

[Raelynn (Carissa)] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdcTmpvDO0I

[Indigo (Lisa)] Good thing I didn't drop a gold coin

[Indigo (Lisa)] Where are we now?

[Indigo (Lisa)] (you guys want to do checks?)

[Master] waiting

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bixi Fizzlebang: Alertness check: (d20) [1d20=7] 7 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 14!!

[Craigh (TMO)] Craigh: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=16] 16 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!

[Master] so the combination give you that you have moved, the coin is not visible, there is not a color pool nearby

Indigo (Lisa) scratches his head "So how big is the plane anyway?"

[Indigo (Lisa)] Are we gonna reach the end of it some time?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'm not sure there are borders like you think

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] How do you reach the end of nothing?

[Indigo (Lisa)] So finding this Maya spot could take 100s of trips? I didn't bring that many coins

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I know

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIOyB9ZXn8s)

[Craigh (TMO)] How long should we leave the others alone?

[Master] How long has it been?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (a couple minutes)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I need a real life emote for /me groans)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (No, not real life. OOC)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I think I was thinking of this the wrong way. We should probably go back to the others

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol brain)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Sounds good to me. All this nothing is very unsettling

[Branwyn (Lisa)] When the silver cord snaps one has a limited time to get to a color pool to try to reform a body. Otherwise you dissolve into the astral plane

[Branwyn (Lisa)] so instead of thinking of where her cord snapped, we might want to think about going to what color pool she entered

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But I agree that we should regroup.

[Craigh (TMO)] What color pool would go to her 'home'?

[Master] Branwyn XP award: 100. Next level in 47692.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Silver is what was attached to her cord but I think that was lost

[Craigh (TMO)] Oh, I thought all the cords were silver.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (But if time moves so much more differently here, she might still be around? If it's 300 years until we're even hungry...)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All cords would be silver but I think it would have disappeared when her cord snapped

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Maybe her "limited time" wasn't as limited?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (web site says 1d10 turns :) )

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Oh, lol... but is that HER turns or OUR turns?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (a turn is 10 minutes for anyone)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (if time passes slowly here... how long is a turn?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Look, I'm just going to say Bixi and Lemon both will never be the same after that time traveling jerk mage)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (I mean it's been years so she probably is gone, but still)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I don't think a time limit would be attached to a catastrophic event if it didn’t count for something)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (if she reformed but didn't have a silver cord she could be just fine but without a way home - if I am understanding it correctly)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (It SEEMS like Namsut is going to be able to figure it out with a little more destination in mind... instead of our just like random wandering.)

[Craigh (TMO)] (what if we go back to where cord snapped, and closest prime material pool from there?)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (But that could be super wrong)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (What if where her cord snapped is like 300 years away?)

[Craigh (TMO)] (I thought that was where we went last week?)]

[Craigh (TMO)] (so where we started tonight)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (last week you thought of a place where she had been)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (It's too much wibblly wobbly for me to keep track of)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and you made it there in one leap - which is nice. this could go on for who knows how long)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (...can we get back in one leap? Or will it take the same amount of CLICKS to get back as it did to get here? What makes the difference?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (think it will take the same number of clicks but we can tell bob just to bring us back and see if he makes us roll for encounters or something)

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I'm sorry if these are super dumb questions. I really did try to read the page, it just only makes not enough sense to me)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not at all. This is super confusing and I keep hoping that I am getting it myself as we are going along)

Branwyn (Lisa) clicks heels to go home to Namsut

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (lol)

[Master] you make it there

[Master] it take several leaps

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thx)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 32'08".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo moved 28'00".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] How are things here?

[(Carissa)] N'laea: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=5] 5 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Bixi Fizzlebang: Alertness check: (d20) [1d20=18] 18 - ROLL FAILED against 14!!

[N'laea (Carissa)] I have not noticed much change.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Just hoping if that yellow person comes back, I will be able to keep us from getting ambushed)

[Indigo (Lisa)] Us neither. We saw a whole lot of nothing. This could take forever

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] How long can we stay here and still make it back?

[Indigo (Lisa)] What?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am not sure. I believe as long as Namsut will take us back we will be fine

Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon) looks very nervous

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I mean, this is like what, Bixi's second adventure? This is a pretty big deal)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it's good!)

[Master] you are all doing very well with this

Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Raelynn "Has she said anything since we've been gone?"

[Master] (no)

Raelynn (Carissa) shakes head

Raelynn (Carissa) quietly, "And N'laea told me not to bother her."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo was right that we made multiple jumps and didn't seem to get anywhere where we could see that we were close.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm.... you'd think you'd see someone since it's so featureless here, but you all did disappear eventually.

[Craigh (TMO)] (stepping away for a few. carry on without me. ;) )

[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Unless Namsut has an idea, how do we find her? Can you scry here? Would it show you other planes if you do?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so Branwyn can go 190 yards per jump - which is 1 minute of time, correct?)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Although if you don't know what Maya looks like...

[Master] yes

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so say Maya has an INT of 16 and rolls a 5 on her 1d10. she could go up to 8,000 yards in 50 jumps before she died)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Lisa does maths)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (correctly?)

[Master] grins

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so trying to go to where the cord snaps is not a great plan)

[Lisa] trying to think this out

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I wish I had asked Namsut if we should wait or go exploring. I really don't want to interrupt her again.)

[Lisa] so she is trying to escape this horrible mist thing so she astrally projects here

[Lisa] looking for a way out but Namsut doesn't follow

[Lisa] cord snaps

[Lisa] does this happen quickly?

[Lisa] if so then she probably wasn't out jumping into random color pools she was looking for a safe place but probably not jumping into any color pools until it was to save her life

[Lisa] so I am thinking the color pool thing might work though it might also take a bunch of jumps too

[Lisa] Thoughts?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I have no idea. You have much more instinctive understanding of these things than I do.)

[Carissa] Sounds about right?

[Carissa] I'm wondering if a goal for this "tutorial" here is finding a pool then attempting to use it as a portal to find her

[Carissa] "The traveler's astral form dissolves into the plane in 1d10 turns, leaving behind the astral entities of those magical items brought into the plane."

[Carissa] I wonder if she brought any entities with her to find?

[Lisa] If I was her and the cord snapped I would be working as quickly as I could to get to the closest pool no matter where it went

[Carissa] Agree on that

[Lisa] but right after that is says - Any magical items that were taken into the plane rot and evaporate with their enchantments gone, save for artifacts, which return to the Prime plane with their powers intact.

[Carissa] Yeah confused on that part

[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.

[Carissa] Unless they remain but only for a certain amount of time

[Lisa] so if she had a magic dagger when her cord snapped she lost it

[Lisa] the dagger rotted away astrally

[Lemon] Why was she even here? Is it better to go with the silver cord way than the physical way that we're doing? Because if our way is better, and if she had a Namsut who could just bring her back whenever, why was she even there alone?

[Lemon] All I have is questions

[Master] They are good questions

[Craigh (TMO)] (Why is Gamora?)

[Lisa] Namsut would have had to bring her for her to go physically

[Lisa] if she jumped herself she would have had to go the cord route

[Lisa] no clue why it happened - maybe we should ask

[Lemon] Is one way more advantageous than another?

[Lisa] that is a good question

[Lemon] Or are they both equally risky?

[Lisa] depends who takes you I guess. We are dependent on the Marid bringing us back

[Lemon] If they were bonded or whatever, does that mean the Marid has to do what Maya said to?

[Lisa] Site says Githyanki can cut silver cords

[Lemon] Oh no

[Lisa] asking whether they were truly bonded or just in love might also be another good question

[Lemon] Now all I can think of is that part in Labyrinth where she's like "It's not fair!" and David Bowie is like "I wonder what your basis for comparison is?"

[Lisa] I mean Indigo has pledged himself to Branwyn as her henchman but it doesn't mean that she controls his actions

[Lemon] I feel like that right now

[Master] THAT

[Lisa] LOL

[Craigh (TMO)] hehe

[Carissa] ( Most mages skilled in summoning and conjuration consider Marids to be more trouble than they are worth, which accounts for the great lack of Marid-controlling items)

[Lisa] so anyway - that's the best I can come up with for what to try next but am open to anything

[Carissa] and lol!

[Lisa] lol - so it must be love!

[Lemon] It could be both?

[Lemon] And why were they looking for a tulip?

[Carissa] (also apparently most claim royalty so Namsut may or may not actually be royal, lol)

[Lisa] It could

[Lisa] tulip as a present

[Lemon] But why? That's so seemingly random

[Carissa] They read it in a book somewhere it represents love

[Lisa] tulips are rare lovey dovey flowers

[Lemon] Ohhh, weird

[Carissa] Although florist will happily tell you that about any flower to sell you one

[Lemon] I'm just nosy I guess lol

[Lisa] want to ask her more questions?

[Lemon] Lol no, every answer will just leave me with more questions. It's probably better if I don't

[Carissa] Yeah I can't think of where to go with what we currently know

[Lemon] Ok, well if Carissa starts asking questions I can't be held responsible for my questions that come after I hear her questions

[Lisa] and I can only think of the pool so if we have questions we should

[Carissa] what are my questions again? lol

[Craigh (TMO)] (I'm afraid at the moment I'm along for the ride)

[Craigh (TMO)] (sorry to not be much use)

[Carissa] I got distracted on the site trying to figure things out

[Master] nah TMO you have ideas and thoughts and help

[Carissa] and food

[Lemon] food sounds good

[Craigh (TMO)] (keep the glitter out of it)

[Master] HAH

[Carissa] edible glitter IS a thing

[Master] and so glitter poop is also a thing

[Lemon] (A few piece of glitter never hurt)

[Craigh (TMO)] but I bet that's not the kind she has)

[Lisa] just saw on the news warning not to eat edible glitter

[Carissa] clogs the pipes?

[Carissa] I've had it in tea...

[Lemon] Anyway, it's just a little bit left stuck on my face. Not enough to cause any health issues

[Lisa] some toxic stuff or something

[Lemon] Just enough to make people wonder

[Carissa] Ah, well, apparently everything is. Toxic glitter at least makes for a better sounding malpractice suit

[Lemon] Britney Spears needs to redo her song

[Lisa] lol

[Lemon] With a taste of your glitter my intestines are all a-writhe... Your sparkles are great but I know that you're toxic...

[Carissa] lol

[Master] WOW

[Master] quote

[Lemon] In case anyone needs a reference... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOZuxwVk7TU

[Craigh (TMO)] (so what's next?)

[Craigh (TMO)] (is there more tonight, or break?)

Lemon shrugs

Raelynn (Carissa) quietly, "Umm, Namsut, have you found Maya yet or have an idea?"

Namsut (Master) looks up

[Lemon] Three hours later it occurred to me that I could, in fact, do OOC /memotes

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I think they figured out how to move around, but not where to go. Maybe there is a place Maya would have gone to for safety?

[Namsut (Master)] (sorry back)

[Namsut (Master)] I am ready to start look soon

Raelynn (Carissa) nods, "So are we."

[Raelynn (Carissa)] How much longer do you need?

[Namsut (Master)] I do not know what time is like right now

[Namsut (Master)] I am certain she is still here

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Hmm, I suppose I mean is there anything we can do now while you do... what you're doing? Some of us are restless, I think.

Namsut (Master) looks around

[Namsut (Master)] I know she is alive

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Well that's a good start!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is very good.

[Namsut (Master)] I do not know which Plane she moved on to

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh. Wait I thought you said she is still here? Or here as in existing but went elsewhere?

[Namsut (Master)] She is here

[Craigh (TMO)] How can we help?

[Namsut (Master)] We need to try to find where she went

[Namsut (Master)] I am trying to feel for where she wanted to go

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If her cord was cut wouldn't she need to seek a pool to get to another plane?

[Namsut (Master)] Yes

[Raelynn (Carissa)] So did she seek another pool and then find her way back to the Astral Plane?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Once she entered a pool could she return to the astral plane or would she be stuck in the plane for the pool she entered?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sorry)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (no need to be!)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (ignore my version)

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (or answer whichever version gives us a clearer answer, lol)

[Lemon] (yes, that one please)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)

[Namsut (Master)] She would have moved to a pool as quickly as she could

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes

[Namsut (Master)] then she would re-emerge to get back to me

[Namsut (Master)] so she would cross the Astral at least twice

[Namsut (Master)] but we were cut off

[Namsut (Master)] that Mist

[Namsut (Master)] so how could she get back

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So you do not think she is on a different plane then

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And she is wandering looking for you?

[Namsut (Master)] She could not go back to where we were, there was no way back

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Correct. But you believe she is here in the astral searching for you rather than in a different plane. I would think this makes her search more difficult

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Can I ... can I ask why you did not travel together to escape the Mist like how you brought us here.

[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

[Namsut (Master)] She was insistent that we leave

[Namsut (Master)] I said we could wait

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Did she want to leave the Prime Plane permanently or something?

Branwyn (Lisa) nods "I am sorry"

[Namsut (Master)] She thought that the best way to escape was to travel the Astral

[Namsut (Master)] then I could not follow

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oohh... to escape the Mist, but she didn't know it had its own risk...

[Raelynn (Carissa)] BUT! You said she's still here and alive so all hope isn't lost!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] We just have to find her. Somehow.

[Namsut (Master)] Yes

[Raelynn (Carissa)] In a place most of us don't really... know or understand how it works!

[Raelynn (Carissa)] But it's okay. Love can conquer almost anything.

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Er... but uh, I still don't know... how to

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Did she have something special on her or something to help us look?

[Namsut (Master)] Nothing that would survive here

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Except her love for you... but I don't think we can think that to find her?

[Namsut (Master)] Just her

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] Or can you sense where she might be? Take us closer?

Namsut (Master) with the body in her arms

[Raelynn (Carissa)] We tried going where Maya went and that didn't bring us anywhere...

Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Namsut sadly

[Raelynn (Carissa)] What if we thought about bringing us to the... hmm, what is it? A soul? Of this body with us?

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (I have a feeling Namsut might be able to move way faster than we can)

[Namsut (Master)] I would think that it would take you many places

[Raelynn (Carissa)] A body can have many souls?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] I'm pretty sure I only have one...

[Raelynn (Carissa)] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25QyCxVkXwQ)

[Namsut (Master)] You said where she was?

[Carissa] (I feel like the body is somehow key here)

[Namsut (Master)] Which time?

[Raelynn (Carissa)] Oh. I didn't specify. I mean I didn't MEAN to go there to start. I just... ended up there.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Where I am having difficulty is thinking of her continually moving. If she is lost and knows you can concentrate to try to find her, is that not a reason for her to settle in one place and wait. As much as she can of course.

[Craigh (TMO)] Maybe movement slows down time for her?

Craigh (TMO) shrugs.

N'laea (Carissa) nods in agreement

[N'laea (Carissa)] When you are lost, and you know someone will look for you, your best chance to be found is to not move. It is much harder to find a moving target.

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (Science has no place here, TMO.)

[Namsut (Master)] When you tried to go to where she was, it is when she was there

[Namsut (Master)] which time she was there

[Bixi Fizzlebang (Lemon)] (when, or WHEN)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] She would have no spells, other than what she had memorized. No magic weapons. She is vulnerable

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Would her books have survived?

[Namsut (Master)] She does not have any books with her, they are in the tower

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good in that they will be waiting for her

[Craigh (TMO)] (afk putting daughter to bed)

[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If it were me in that situation, I would not have moved far from the pool that saved me. What with these Githyanki and whatever roams the astral plane. But that is how I would think and not necessarily how Maya would

[Namsut (Master)] She would normally be the equal to any Mlar

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (think my brain is done for the day :) )

[N'laea (Carissa)] (same)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (equal to what?)

[Namsut (Master)] I am searching for any Hr' a' cknir

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (translation?)

[Namsut (Master)] If I can find one then I can harness it

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (what is a Mlar?)

[Namsut (Master)] (are you asking her that?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thought it was a typo - if not then I will ask her that)

[Namsut (Master)] (OH sorry)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] what is a Mlar?
