BOB Hello
'Lisa' connected
BOB Hello there
Lisa: Hello! Warning I am drinking tonight
Lisa: :)
BOB Good
Lisa: Having a group play of this really crappy game and so I said I would only play it intoxicated so have been drinking every night and hoping I can finish it tonight after this
Lisa: I have been leaving my daily reports under the influence. It is seriously pissing off the guy who thinks this is the best game ever. So that makes it even more fun
BOB chuckles
'Lorie' connected
BOB Hello Lorie
Lisa: Hi Lorie!
Lorie: Good evening - hope it's warmer where you all are
Lorie: How are you?
Lisa: High 60s and windy here
Lorie: we barely broke 20, but ... thankfully, I am not near where the bridge collapsed
Lisa: Yikes that is cold
BOB That sucks and very good
Lorie: Hey BOB
Lisa: But glad you weren't near a bridge collapse
Lorie: How are things?
'Lemon' connected
BOB Hey Lemon
Lorie: Evening!
Lisa: Hi Lemon!
'Carissa' connected
BOB and now Carissa, my favorite scientist arrives
Lisa: Hi Carissa!
Lemon: This is no place for science
Lorie: ??? Science belongs EVERYWHERE :)
Lorie: Sort of like second, third and fourth languages :)
Lemon: I mean, I agree with you, but BOB is in charge, not me
Lemon: And he repeatedly defies science
Lorie: Shhh... you're good to let him believe that.
Lemon: lol
Carissa: hello!
BOB chuckles
BOB I am here, tonight we want to end up with being able to jump to your destination at the beginning of next week
Lisa: ok
Lorie: That works, I'll be at the destination next Friday...
BOB yes to Lorie Licornah will be there when they arrive
Lorie: my destination will just include a giant golf ball
Lorie: LOL
Lorie: 1 round behind as usual?
BOB grins
Lemon: What if we just go totally rogue and decide to do something completely different?
Lorie: That has NEVER ever happened
BOB HAH
Lisa: theoretically if Branwyn learns how to program the amulet we can go wherever we want
BOB yes
Lemon: Like, what if we just decide to go on one of those office retreat things that people do to build morale or whatever, and we just take a vacation and play awkward ice breakers for the next five sessions?
Lorie: Hi I'm Lorie and I like lemons and lived in Lake City
Lorie: Do I win?
Lorie: :: Laughs ::
BOB LOL
Lemon: How could you say lemons when I AM Lemon!? You stole mine! (Insert workplace drama)
Lorie: Well, I am an actual fan of lemons LOL
Lorie: :: takes giant ball of string and tosses to Lemon :: you're up!
Lemon: lol! My real life name is Rhiannon and I always said I liked radishes because that's the only thing I could ever come up with when on the spot, but I am allergic to them actually
Lorie: Oh that would be sad... I giant watermelon radish is a good thing
Lemon: I am also allergic to coconut which seems to absolutely devastate other people, but the few times I've accidentally had it, I didn't even like it
Lorie: Rhubarb?
Lorie: Ruffles?
Lemon: Oooh, I do like rhubarb, especially in pie
Lorie: Ricotta?
Lemon: ruffles are meh
Lorie: Ricola?
Lorie: (with an H even)
Lemon: Going to place all these answers in my back pocket for the next stupid icebreaker I have to do
Lorie: I was trying to see how many we could combine
Lemon: ranch!
Lemon: risotto
BOB yuck
BOB to Ranch
Lemon: rocks! not to eat, but to look at
Lorie: Risotto with Lemon and Mushrooms... yum!
BOB Because you are not a dwarf
Lemon: correct!
Lemon: Although my picture kind of looks like one
Lemon: <----
Lemon: I'm ready to be serious whenever, for the record.
BOB I am here to listen and answer
BOB Lorie you saw the comment about the Inn and Gerry and Mistsickness
Lorie: Ummmmm... sort of, I took a post work pre-game nap because of reasons
Lorie: But it looks like I need to edit him out
BOB Naps are good
Lemon: Well if we're hanging around chilling at Branwyn's right now, I might try to learn wraith form, since that's in Branwyn's books?
Lorie: Oh, I wrote as if we were snapping fingers and moving things along
BOB Both to Lemon and Lorie
Lemon: I have not caught up on everything today, because reasons
Lorie: And in very interesting news
Lorie: Some Broward man just texted me and asked if I wanted to go on a date tonight... he thinks I'm a guy he met on Tinder
Lorie: :: sighs ::
BOB lol
Lorie: things only someone who lived in So FL would realize
Lorie: In any case, wandering and wondering the evening along
BOB Yes to Lemon Bixi can learn that spell over the next few weeks
BOB Yes to Lorie about learning more things here
BOB How long did the group want to wait before leaving for wherever?
Lemon: Long enough to try to learn my spell. Otherwise I have no plans
Carissa: no preference
BOB Ideas Lisa?
BOB (LINK)
<a href="http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.DragonslayerTrainingPlans">(LINK)</a>
BOB for what we have so far
Lisa: I updated the party pack - Carissa is there anything special we need to bring for this adventure?
Carissa: nothing I've been able to think of
Lorie: Does the party pack have holy water?
Lisa: no
Carissa: but I'll double check now
Lorie: extra holy symbols
Lisa: priests usually carry their own
Lorie: scrolls of make friends with evil
BOB no to extra holy symbols
Lisa: we have never found any loose extras lying around
Lorie: scrolls of make evil go away
Lisa: (LINK)
<a href="http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.PartyPack">(LINK)</a>
BOB and for holy water there is an elven font in the Valoris Wood if you make friends with the other elves
Lorie: Since I'm locationally challenged, does that require Mistsickness?
BOB no
Lorie: (Thanks for sharing Party Pack link)
Carissa: (once sec, phone call)
Carissa: (how do I afk??)
BOB The only place where you cannot go locally is the Inn
Lisa: My characters don't really have anything to do. If the party pack is okay then that is good. Bran is supposed to read the amulet book but since it isn't a real book I can't read it to make sure she learns it :-)
Lorie: (oddly slash afk = bak)
Lorie: I can go make friends with elves if there is time.... along with the other tasks as I can
Lisa: glad that link worked!
BOB when Carissa gets back Lorie you two can work on that
Lorie: :: nods ::
Lisa: Lemon - do you want to roll for your spell?
Lemon: sure, what do I roll again?
BOB Lorie and Lisa and Lemon how far into the future do you want to advance things?
Lisa: as little as possible?
Lisa: we keep advancing time - we will be elderly adventurers before long
BOB laughs
Lisa: well not the elves
BOB This is true
Lorie: I don't really have a dog in the fight BOB, I don't have to train... I don't really know where we're going.
Lemon: I will be around for a long time, too, but I will be more likely to break a hip
Branwyn: lol
BOB Licornah and Branwyn can talk
BOB and when Bixi wants to join in
BOB will be a good thing
Branwyn: I was trying to figure out how to add a spell and think I screwed up my own page
BOB I can check
BOB what spell?
Lemon: I also had a prank I wanted to do while we were hanging around, but the one-armed man isn't here so it would be pointless
Lisa (Branwyn): Lemon wanted to learn wraith form - guess needs to roll for it first and then add
Lisa (Branwyn): wish there was an undo button
BOB grins
BOB you can delete
Licornah : Ctrl+z only works so much magic :(
Lisa (Branwyn): no formatting - had them all by level and now is this weird list and options are gone
Branwyn: [CHECK] Learn Spell [EFFECTS +1] (vs. Target 95) [FAILURE by 3] [d100-1 = 98]
Lemon: oh no
Branwyn: that's it
Lorie (Licornah ): (Makes me long for the day you gave sphere or school and there was a nice access database list)
Lisa (Branwyn): On your main page 4th box on the INT row is learn. Grab that and roll the dice to learn it
BOB so are you saying that Branwyn does not know Wraithform?
Bixi Fizzlebang: [7 = 7]
Bixi Fizzlebang: [7 = 7]
Bixi Fizzlebang: what
Lisa (Branwyn): wow did I just fail on a 95? good thing I'm not learning spells lol
BOB chuckles
Lisa (Branwyn): that was odd
Bixi Fizzlebang: I can't figure out how to roll it, it just keeps dragging my level over
Lisa (Branwyn): no she does not but it's in a book in the library
Bixi Fizzlebang: [CHECK] Learn Spell (vs. Target 65) [SUCCESS by 61] [d100 = 4]
Branwyn: Sweet!
Lisa (Branwyn): you can start rolling for Howard
Bixi Fizzlebang: lol
Lorie (Licornah ): ((Ooh... I now have 17 zip folders on my desktop :( )
Bixi Fizzlebang: Now how do I add it to my list?
Lisa (Branwyn): Oh no!!
BOB I will
BOB and that sucks Lorie
Lorie (Licornah ): (plus 10 more)
Lemon: I was going to organize my spell list this week but I got sick and did basically nothing
Lisa (Branwyn): does FG randomly pick who to attack each week?
BOB LOL
Lorie (Licornah ): (it looks like it's trying to replicate my desktop folder from windows :( )
Licornah : [CHECK] (vs. Target 3) [SURPRISED! by 2] [d6 = 1]
Licornah : [CHECK] (vs. Target 3) [SURPRISED! by 2] [d6 = 1]
Licornah : [CHECK] (vs. Target 3) [NOT-SURPRISED by 1] [d6 = 4]
Lorie (Licornah ): (whoops - mis click)
Lemon: at least your mis clicks don't steal identities
Lorie (Licornah ): (true, we get monthly phishing checks at work for that)
GM: LOL
'TMO' connected
Lemon: That one was on purpose
Lorie (Licornah ): (the URL literally says "you are being scammed" and people still click on it)
Lemon: people don't read. I know this from retail and food service. They do not read anything no matter how big and bright and in the way you make it]
Lisa (Branwyn): I need TMO
BOB Added Wraithform to Bixi's sheet
Lemon: thank you!
BOB had to find the right book
TMO: I am here
Lisa: was it in the book?
Lisa: Hi TMO! :D
BOB Hello TMO
Lemon: oh wow, the TMO bat signal works!
Lisa: Nice dinner?
BOB Yes to Lisa
Craigh: It wasn't bad
TMO (Craigh): how can I help?
Lorie (Licornah ): (Evening TMO)
TMO (Craigh): lol - it's saving FGU log zip files to my desktop...
TMO (Craigh): 3 small ones
Lisa: oh I screwed up my spell list display and have no clue how to fix it - no rush for you to help
Lorie (Licornah ): (Yeah, I feel less loved if it's happening to you)
Lemon: still no zips here
TMO (Craigh): I have joined the voice channel. you should be able to show me there. just whenever you like, no prob
Lisa (Branwyn): thx
TMO (Craigh): so what are we in the middle of?
Carissa: sorry back
Carissa: hi TMO!
Branwyn: waiting for Carissa to get back for elf chat
Lemon: Pretty much nothing aside from the crisis Lisa is having with her spells
TMO (Craigh): let the elfiness begin!
Carissa: man even beat Lisa typing when AFK
Branwyn: I was trying to help with adding to char sheet - bad idea
Branwyn: LOL
Lemon: I appreciate the way you suffer for me
BOB warm smile
Branwyn: lol
BOB we have four elves here now
Carissa: four? where?
Carissa: I'm still double checking party pack
BOB Carissa has three, Lorie has one
Lemon: Remind me which of TMOs characters is missing an arm?
Carissa: Yeah but not sure Shi would bother right now depending on whatever is the setting
BOB and then Lisa TMO and BOB have other characters to add in commentary
Carissa: unless it's morning meeting or something... three is a lot to juggle :P
BOB you can make it a morning meeting? or the after morning meeting second breakfast
Carissa: someone's gonna have to help start that one, limited sleep and I gave my settings earlier this week ;)
Carissa: (and second confirmation, I see nothing else to add to party pack)
User has gone AFK. (TMO)
Branwyn: thx
Lisa: Craigh is the one armed man
Spell: Gift of Speech
Lisa: I didn't do that
Youtargim: Hello there
Lemon: I did that
Lisa: I don' think
Youtargim: (I did )
Lisa: aha
Lemon: I was just thinking it would have been nice to have noticed that one when we were talking to the cats
Carissa (Carissa): (actually last minute thought is anything pretty art artifact we haven't sold may be useful if we have to trade with anyone)
Youtargim: So do we get this kind of breakfast every day?
Lisa: sounds good - will look for before we leave
Indigo: I don't eat here every day but yeah I think so
Youtargim: Where do you eat?
Indigo: You don't like it? Better not say that too loud or Jilly might hit you with a spoon
Youtargim: I am not sure of how I fit in quite yet
N'laea: It is good, but... too heavy.
Youtargim: I like this,
Youtargim: strange foreign food is always interesting to try
Bixi Fizzlebang: It's one of my favorite things about when we stay here!
Indigo: You don't have to eat it all
Raelynn: It's soooo good!
N'laea: It is not just the portions, but... just how do you eat so many cinnamon buns? A bite is more than enough.
Youtargim: So that mist sickness thing was horrible
Youtargim: how do you guys get through it?
Youtargim: Is that what this is?
N'laea: The first time is always the worst.
Youtargim: takes a big bite
Bixi Fizzlebang: I could eat cinnamon buns all day
Raelynn: suddenly debating how big of a bite and how many cinnamon buns to eat
Youtargim: You do have interesting meals
Youtargim: almost as good as the palace
Raelynn: What do you normally eat?
Youtargim: Dates, yogurt, and ground grains for breakfast
N'laea: That does not sound bad at all.
Youtargim: Your chef is very good
Youtargim: the Princess will be interested
N'laea: Jilly? She does seem to get compliments often.
Youtargim: So where are you... people? family? what do you think of your selves?
N'laea: Friends. I cannot speak for them, though.
Indigo: I don't understand what you're asking
Indigo: Where are my people?
Youtargim: Where I am from, I work for the Princess
Youtargim: but so far you all seem to work for no one?
Carissa (N'laea): (ooops thought he said what are)
N'laea: I work for my god.
N'laea: Followed by my clan.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I work to keep nature safe and right now I'm... following? Branwyn, since
Tiberius Branadarus: Well I am family
Branwyn: I serve our Queen and am responsible for this estate. But everyone at this table are here because we are friends as N'laea says and we go on adventures together
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): wtf
Branwyn: Of course you are darling
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): let me try that again?
Tiberius Branadarus: Indigo is family
Carissa (Raelynn): (yes because I saw nothing?)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I was trying to delete and retype
Carissa (Raelynn): (saw you typing, but nothing)
Branwyn: smiles at Indigo
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, I accidentally whispered somehow?
Carissa (Raelynn): (very possible)
Bixi Fizzlebang: I work to protect nature and right now... I'm not technically WORKING FOR Branwyn but kind of... following? Our goals seem to align a lot, and also I'm writing ghost stories.
Raelynn: And sometimes our gods want us to go where our friends go so it works out!
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ghosts are one of nature's biggest enemies, as far as I can tell right now.
Bixi Fizzlebang: nods confidently
N'laea: That is... an interesting take.
Indigo: Have you ever seen a real ghost?
Tiberius Branadarus: The only ghosts I have seen have been horrible people so yes I agree with Bixi that ghosts are enemies
Bixi Fizzlebang: Not yet, just a lot of half-ghosts so far
Bixi Fizzlebang: Half-ghosts can go either way.
Indigo: What ghosts have you seen Branadarus?
Tiberius Branadarus: Someone told me once that they were misunderstood, that they lost their way on their way to the afterlife
Tiberius Branadarus: but I think a good sword can help them find their way there again
Tiberius Branadarus: OH I fought a ghost in a wheat field once
N'laea: Er, meaning to kill them?
Tiberius Branadarus: It was a horrible vision
Tiberius Branadarus: I kept on slashing and it would not go
Bixi Fizzlebang: takes notes
Tiberius Branadarus: until Otught cast something and made it disappear
Tiberius Branadarus: He said it was absolved of its sins and let free to return to where it should go
Tiberius Branadarus: looks over at the Elves
Tiberius Branadarus: Licornah, N'laea do you have ghosts?
Tiberius Branadarus: So far I have only seen human ghosts
Tiberius Branadarus: but there must be Elven ghosts too right?
Licornah : :: looks up from her journal :: we have spirits... we commune with them and give thanks for their lives
Tiberius Branadarus: OH Indigo! did you have ghosts back home?
Licornah : :: returns to writing in her journal ::
Youtargim: Are you telling me that you regularly deal with ghosts?
Indigo: I don't think so
N'laea: To be rejected from the afterlife has... worse effects than becoming a ghost.
Youtargim: I do NOT know how to communicate with ghosts
N'laea: It is likely why there are few if any elven ghosts.
Indigo: laughs
Raelynn: Oh! I learned how to do that recently!
Licornah : :: looks up again :: I don't know that you deal with them... you just move along and let them go about their path
Licornah : when they want to communicate, they do, even if we can't understand
Bixi Fizzlebang: Can they take the forms of animals?
Youtargim: Do you kill them? Send them on their way?
Licornah : There used to be a bear that was a ghost... he was friendly
Bixi Fizzlebang: smiles
Indigo: Oh wait! That farmer with the houses was a ghost. He was nice too
Youtargim: Bears have ghosts? but not Elves?
Licornah : :: shrugs :: I can't say.. I don't... I let them go their own way
Youtargim: a house ghost?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi is feeling EXTREMELY JUSTIFIED with all her ghost stuff now lol
Youtargim: a ghost in a house? or a house that is a ghost?
Indigo: He was just near the houses
Bixi Fizzlebang: I suspect sometimes they may get to choose to be a ghost, and it seems elves would not choose that?
Bixi Fizzlebang: looks around at the elves
N'laea: Ah yes, didn't those eat Talwin instead of you Indigo? From what I was told.
Youtargim: Why would you CHOOSE to be a ghost?!?!?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Is that a correct assumption?
Lorie (Licornah ): (Ghosts >>>>>>> Vampires >>>>>> Liches )
Bixi Fizzlebang: Unfinished Business, Youtargim!
takes another bite of a cinnamon roll and looks for more
Bixi Fizzlebang: rolls eyes
N'laea: No. It is a grave to be turned away from Aravaith. It warps one soul beyond being a ghost. I would be surprised by any that can stay as a ghost instead.
Youtargim: What is Aravaith?
N'laea: Where we are going. Alive, though. You couldn't get there dead, anyways.
Youtargim: Ummm, you are going where you want to be dead?
User is back. (TMO)
Tiberius Branadarus: Cool
N'laea: Because the Goddess of Mysteries resides there and we need to be in touch with her.
TMO (Craigh): sorry, wife called and needed to vent a bit. family drama crap
Tiberius Branadarus: OH
Tiberius Branadarus: Not dead
Tiberius Branadarus: I am still coming
Indigo: I don't want to be dead
TMO (Craigh): not started by us, but aimed at us. *shrug* I don't give a flying flap what they think. ;)
Tiberius Branadarus: Even if they are not dead
Lisa (Indigo): sorry TMO :(
BOB Sorry TMO come be a ghost
TMO (Craigh): eh, it happens
BOB Or a ...... ghost buster
TMO (Craigh): Oooooooo.... ?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): or a ghostwriter
Lorie (Licornah ): (Family drama is the worst of the worst)
BOB Who you gonna call?
Carissa (N'laea): Only if he answers correctly: TMO, are you a god?
TMO (Craigh): Yes
Carissa (N'laea): wait does that mean he fails being a ghost buster or he is one now?
BOB I cannot believe that NO ONE did that last week, Rae are you a god...
BOB Was a perfect set up line that I worked on for a MONTH!!!!!!
Carissa (N'laea): Okay but do you know what happens in most myths when you claim to be a god? ESPECIALLY to be as beautiful as one? Aphrodite is NOT kind about that
BOB grins
Tiberius Branadarus: Indigo, do you think we need to be dead to go there?
N'laea: sighs
Indigo: hope not
N'laea: As I said, even dead, you could not get there. You can only get there alive.
N'laea: It is for elven souls.
Tiberius Branadarus: I mean look at Shi, what happened to her when she was dead and then not dead
Bixi Fizzlebang: But you want to die when you get there?
N'laea: And those with the ability or amulet to get there
Tiberius Branadarus: She was never the same
Tiberius Branadarus: I want to be here
Indigo: I think she's better
Tiberius Branadarus: The kids need a good mom and a good dad
N'laea: .Which is why she is not coming. She... knows she would not return again.
Bixi Fizzlebang: shakes head
Tiberius Branadarus: well a good mom
Bixi Fizzlebang: Elves are confusing
Tiberius Branadarus: Yes they are
Clinks glasses with Bixi
TMO (Craigh): so, how do I ghost?
N'laea: shakes her head
N'laea: Not sure why I try....
Tiberius Branadarus: Women are confusing enough, then you make them an Elf?
Carissa (N'laea): (Craigh is actually there if you want, lol)
Bixi Fizzlebang: Hey!
Bixi Fizzlebang: I rescind my clink!
TMO (Craigh): where are we and what is the situation?
Raelynn: Or are men just dense then you make them human?
BOB second breakfast TMO for Craigh
Raelynn: *dense enough
Lisa (Indigo): breakfast
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): breakfast, and we are just talking about ghosts no big deal
Tiberius Branadarus: I was saying that women are hard to understand
Tiberius Branadarus: Not like you Bixi
Bixi Fizzlebang: oh, ok
Looks around to make sure he is not in the line of fire from any cutlery
Bixi Fizzlebang: totally accepts that
Raelynn: Um, she's a woman, too!
Licornah : [CHECK] (vs. Target 3) [SURPRISED! by 2] [d6 = 1]
Youtargim: SO
Bixi Fizzlebang: But I'm not hard to understand
Looking around and seeing that there is only Indigo, Craigh and Tiberius who are male here and the rest are apparently female....
Craigh: Not sure if I'm feeling better or I've died and am in purgatory.
Raelynn: Right, but he shouldn't put one down for the others.
Youtargim: We are going to a place where the dead are
Licornah : :: looks up from journal, thinks about saying something, realizes it wouldn't be worth it and goes back to writing ::
Youtargim: Do we need to stop them?
Bixi Fizzlebang: It's ok to be confusing! You're like a puzzle every day, that's fun!
Indigo: stop who?
N'laea: No.We only need to find the Goddess of Mysteries.
Craigh: leans his head back. "Oh, good. It's both."
N'laea: If you mean to attempt to stop the dead from arriving, I would have to stop you.
Youtargim: I do not know
Youtargim: I am confused,
looks at Tiberius
N'laea: thinking clearly
Youtargim: I think that we need to step back and figure out where you are going and why you are going, so I know how to help you
Youtargim: The Princess had me come with you for a reason, and I trust that she knows you better than I do
Indigo: I'm not going to try to understand until we get there
Youtargim: do
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol, is that bob or Yogurt talking?
Raelynn: I thought you were going to help us in the desert? But that's not soon.
Raelynn: We have things to return.
Youtargim: Things
Indigo: Yeah you don't need to go
Youtargim: I think I need to
Craigh: Give the man the information to make a choice off of, at least.
Youtargim: Sir Indigo
Indigo: I don't have the information
Youtargim: You seem to be a level headed person.... halfling.... knight....
Craigh: Fair point. I'm not too sure I do either.
Craigh: grins.
Youtargim: you are going there to help with the ghosts?
Bixi Fizzlebang: shrugs
Bixi Fizzlebang: I never know what's really going on, I just try to help where I can
Indigo: We go to the elf dead place and find a goddess and give her a cloak and she should be really happy to get her clothes back
Craigh: I hope she had more than one outfit.
Youtargim: nods slowly, go find a naked goddess and giver her back her clothes
Indigo: just her cloak
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh I would be so embarrassed if she were naked
Raelynn: She is the mother of all elves. You'll need to be respectful.
Youtargim: Sounds like a plan
N'laea: She is the mother of all elves. You'll need to be respectful.
Carissa (N'laea): (sorry fixed speaker)
Youtargim: I can be respectful of a woman without clothes
Youtargim: It is her choice
Bixi Fizzlebang: cringes
Youtargim: well, is it? why do you have her clothes?
Licornah : :: sighs and shakes her head and continues to write ::
Indigo: I wasn't even gonna talk. She wouldn't understand me
N'laea: Or perhaps stop thinking of an all-powerful deity as such? She is the personification of moonlight, illusions, the night sky....
Bixi Fizzlebang: You um... might want to... think of the way in which you phrase things sometimes, Yout
Youtargim: What did I say? Did I get an idiom wrong?
Raelynn: We found one of her gowns somewhere it didn't belong. All we know is we need to return it.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't know a lot about elf goddesses, but I'm pretty sure they're very particular about how you talk about them. Just judging from my extremely limited experiences with elves...
N'laea: Raelynn and I must go, and as the one with the Amulet, so much Branwyn. The rest can decide on their own if they wish to join.
Youtargim: I am going I am here to help
Tiberius Branadarus: OH NO, I am going away this time,
Tiberius Branadarus: TWICE you left and had adventures without me
Carissa (N'laea): (what's a nice way of saying, "then get your head out of the gutter? :P)
Tiberius Branadarus: I thought you were going to a tower for wizards
Bixi Fizzlebang: What is she the goddess of, specifically?
Tiberius Branadarus: you said it was just a tower in ice
Tiberius Branadarus: and look what happened!!!!!
Raelynn: Mysteries, Moonlight, Journeys. OH! And illusions! It isn't many, but some gnomes actually follow her!
Indigo: Yeah look what happened!
Indigo: GRINS
Tiberius Branadarus: I am going with you Love
Raelynn: Oh and Night Skies. She's the goddess of MANY things.
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh! I would absolutely love to go then! What an honor it would be!
Tiberius Branadarus: Indigo and I have lots to do
Tiberius Branadarus: and this new guy .... um Youts
Indigo: I don't know if I'm going
Tiberius Branadarus: Yeah we are going with you
Tiberius Branadarus: Yes you are Indigo
Raelynn: She's also one of the Triad that make up another goddess along with Hanali... it's a long story, but they're like, super close!
punches Indigo in the shoulder
Bixi Fizzlebang: That doesn't make any sense to me, but it sounds very nice!
Indigo: Everyone's going to be speaking elvish and we'll just stand around in the corner bowing
Tiberius Branadarus: You need to be there with me to tell me when the Elves are serious
Indigo: They're always serious
Tiberius Branadarus: Yes! Seeeee you need to be there so I have someone to talk to
Bixi Fizzlebang: Indigo, I need you there for solidarity for meal times. I'm guessing they don't eat quite as often as I would like there...
Youtargim: I ,.... Um....
Indigo: Make them tell you when they AREN'T serious
N'laea: There is... one potential problem I do not have a solution to that you all must consider.
Tiberius Branadarus: Sure Yout you can be there too and tell us what they are saying
Tiberius Branadarus: See we have a great group
Raelynn [W Comm]: [Translation] He doesn't know Elvish he said.
<font color="##000000">He doesn't know Elvish he said.
[understood by: Indigo, Branwyn, Licornah , Bixi Fizzlebang, N'laea, Raelynn, Craigh]
Tiberius Branadarus: Me, Yout, Indigo, Bixi, Branwyn
Carissa (Raelynn): (whoops)
Tiberius Branadarus: It will be great
Indigo: Craigh
Raelynn: He said he doesn't know Elvish.
Raelynn : [Translation] Right, Youtargim?
<font color="##000000">Right, Youtargim?
[understood by: Licornah , Carissa, N'laea, Raelynn]
Tiberius Branadarus: Who knows Elvish? That is why we have Rae and N'laea for
Tiberius Branadarus: Or Shi and
Tiberius Branadarus: well I guess those two are not coming,
Tiberius Branadarus: we had good times together didn't we Indigo
Tiberius Branadarus: Wish we could get the two of them together again
Tiberius Branadarus: That was fun
Indigo: Yeah we did
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm afraid to ask
Indigo: That's not gonna happen. Shi has a new boyfriend
BOB Lorie and Lemon see Diplomatic Entanglements story arc for details on Tiberius and Indigo's musing
Tiberius Branadarus: WHAT!!!!!
Lorie (Licornah ): (Ummm... okay)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi is extremely NOT interested in finding out what all that is about
Tiberius Branadarus: Does he know?
Tiberius Branadarus: WOW
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): it sounds sketchy
Tiberius Branadarus: Do you think we should tell him?
Indigo: Yeah he's lucky Kel hasn't killed him but then Shi would kill Kel so maybe it's okay
N'laea: I have seen all three together. I assume they all know?
Tiberius Branadarus: Really?
Carissa (N'laea): (lol to Indigo)
Tiberius Branadarus: so like Kel and his magic sword are ok with the other guy?
N'laea: There was... distance, but that is all I will say.
N'laea: I am not a fan of gossip.
Tiberius Branadarus: Shi really liked Kel's magic sword
Raelynn: clearly trying hard to not speak up
Tiberius Branadarus: I have to admit I sort of did too
N'laea: Er, like the one we found?
BOB Is that enough of the Wink Wink nudge nudge say no more, say no more?
N'laea: points to the sheathed flaming sword
Indigo: When we get back we should go find Kel in the wood and go hunting or something with him
Youtargim: So just how many elves are you planning on taking with us on this trip?
N'laea: Those elves are not going for their own reasons
Lorie (Licornah ): (@BOB, I have no idea what wink, wink, nudge, nudge you mean, but ummm, sure?)
Tiberius Branadarus: So do you think we should take Kell then with us Indigo?
Tiberius Branadarus: How many people should we take?
Tiberius Branadarus: after all it is a Goddess
Tiberius Branadarus: We want to make a good impression
Tiberius Branadarus: Lots of people attending to .....
Tiberius Branadarus: Ummm
Branwyn: No Tiberius. They cannot go
Tiberius Branadarus: who are we attending to?
N'laea: Sehanine Moonbow
Tiberius Branadarus: Yes Love
Branwyn: N'laea you said there was something important to consider before we got sidetracked?
Tiberius Branadarus: Oh I understand that N'laea but we are there to support someone
Tiberius Branadarus: so Branwyn?
Tiberius Branadarus: and she is there presenting you as a sacrifice? and we save you?
Branwyn: laughs
Branwyn: I hope not!
Licornah : :: looks up :: take her favorite things with the cloak and be nice to her attendants, earn their favor to earn hers
N'laea: sighs again
Licornah : :: goes back to writing and sketching a squirrel ::
N'laea: No. Branwyn and I discussed it earlier.
Tiberius Branadarus: OH That is a good idea ..... Licor
TMO (Craigh): (are all the spells Howard and Johan know in their traveling spell books linked on the Library page?)
Tiberius Branadarus: Huh, I bet people made fun of you when you were a kid huh?
Tiberius Branadarus: Be nice to the attendants is always a good idea
Craigh: looks at Tiberius in confusion. "Liquor?"
Tiberius Branadarus: Her name
Lisa (Branwyn): oh no - now that I look I haven't updated them
TMO (Craigh): okay, not that important, just doing a bit of background work in determining what spells to try and scroll
Tiberius Branadarus: When I was a kid we teased a boy who was call Potem
Tiberius Branadarus: Called him Pot
Tiberius Branadarus: or Black
Tiberius Branadarus: Calling the pot black you get it?
Laughs
Tiberius Branadarus: so Licor
Carissa (N'laea): You... talk a lot
N'laea: You... talk a lot
Tiberius Branadarus: People might have teased her when she was a kid
Tiberius Branadarus: I was thinking
Laughs
Licornah : I'm sorry, as you asking if I was treated poorly as a child? No... not that I recall
Tiberius Branadarus: My love has just returned home from two I mean three adventures without me
Tiberius Branadarus: I am going to keep her close and take up as much as I can with her
Tiberius Branadarus: and I am happy for you Licor
Tiberius Branadarus: That is a good thing
Tiberius Branadarus: Do you like it here in Dragon Fen?
Looks over at Indigo
Tiberius Branadarus: I might have been spending too much time with Jilly while you were gone
Craigh: chuckles
Licornah : It's, interesting. I'm trying to become more familiar with the area and the fauna
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I vaguely remember when we were here last time asking why she married this guy, lol
User has gone AFK. (Lemon)
TMO (Craigh): brains + brawn
Youtargim: It is good to have you here Licornah
Youtargim: Where are you from? I want to understand where the different people who are important to the Countess are from and their backgrounds so I can help with what I can
Craigh: What's it like where you're from? You've talked about it a bit when we were trying to identify it.
TMO (Craigh): jinx
Carissa (N'laea): (and now you two have entered your own faster typer contest)
Licornah : Where I'm from is in the north... I'm from an area near a River and to the west is Silvermoon
Craigh: Is it an Elven kingdom, human, or mixed?
Youtargim: North where?
Licornah : Silvermoon... north of, umm, here?
Youtargim: Hallstatt?
Lorie (Licornah ): (she thinks?)
Licornah : There are many elves, but there are humans, and halflings, and others...
Youtargim: Keltoi?
Lorie (Licornah ): (OOC - Does my character know Hallstatt BOB?)
Youtargim [C Comm]: [Translation] Do you understand this?
<font color="##000000">Do you understand this?
[understood by: ]
Lisa (Indigo): Fixed TMO
TMO (Craigh): Thank you!
BOB OOC for Lorie nope you have zero idea of any of these physical locations so far
Lorie (Licornah ): (:: sigh :: Lorie versus PC knowledge ))
Licornah : :: shakes head :: No sorry, I haven't heard of those...
Licornah : Waterdeep?
Youtargim: Never heard of it
Indigo: They can do this all day
Indigo: grabs a scone
Tiberius Branadarus: OH you mean Wolfspack! The barbarian city to the far east
Licornah : (Yup... this is going to be a Who's on First scene)
Licornah : (:: falls on floor laughing at that ::)
Lorie (Licornah ): (Wolfspack! :: personally insulted)
BOB grins
Lorie (Licornah ): ((starts chanting Greek and summoning a certain mage she knows))
Tiberius Branadarus: Ok well Licor you are welcome to join us
Tiberius Branadarus: You are an elf
Tiberius Branadarus: so you would want to go to elf places right?
Licornah : I can go to lots of places human, elf, halfling, dwarf. I just don't want to go where the Vampires are.
Licornah : And I'd like to avoid the Wizards of Thay thank you
laughs
Tiberius Branadarus: Well Vampires are here
Tiberius Branadarus: No clue about wizards of who ever
Licornah : You should do something about that
Tiberius Branadarus: that is Branwyn's worry
Tiberius Branadarus: My mother was a witch,
Tiberius Branadarus: I let Branwyn worry about vampires
Licornah : :: tilts head :: a scryer?
Tiberius Branadarus: I need to go get some practice in before we leave Love
Indigo: stuffs the rest of the scone in his mouth
kisses Branwyn deeply
Tiberius Branadarus: I will be back later
smiles at the display
Branwyn: smiles
Branwyn: See you later darling
Youtargim: I do want to ask about the vampires?
Youtargim: are you really? are there a lot?
Branwyn: I have no idea how many. One here and there and who knows how many in the Great Swamp
Youtargim: HERE!!!!
Youtargim: WHAT!
Lorie (Licornah ): (And you don't have gallons of holy water???)
Branwyn: Not right here! Calm yourself
Lorie (Licornah ): (This is worse than us living near a lich BOB)
Branwyn: And if you met one you might actually like them
Youtargim: I ahh
Youtargim: Ummm
Youtargim: You KNOW a vampire?
Branwyn: A few
Youtargim: I ... you said THEM
Youtargim: WAIT
Youtargim: what
Youtargim: I mean
Youtargim: sorry Countess
Craigh: You work for a genie. How is this unusual for you?
Youtargim: If you tell me to ignore vampires I will do that
Youtargim: Genies are normal
Craigh: Wrong.
Youtargim: Ghuls are horrible
Branwyn: laughs
Youtargim: The Deep Desert has horrors that many cannot survive
Lorie (Licornah ): :: considers opening a holy water emporium here as a side business for profit :: ;)
Branwyn: I have no doubt
Youtargim: Which is why the Princess has assigned me to you I suppose
Branwyn: Because you can survive such horrors?
Raelynn: So besides speaking languages... what else can you do?
Youtargim: Sail
Youtargim: fight
Youtargim: trade
N'laea: Fight how?
Youtargim: I was a merchant before the Princess took me into her employ
User is back. (Lemon)
pulls out his scimitar slightly and then re-sheathes it
Youtargim: I can hold my own in a sea battle
Youtargim: I was in command of four ships
N'laea: nods
Craigh: So you know seas and deserts?
Youtargim: yes
Craigh: Interesting. I wouldn't have thought those two would go together.
Bows deeply
Youtargim: Thank you
Youtargim: I traded up and down the seas from far Kaparimtia to the jungles of Malatra
Youtargim: and now I am here to serve your Countess until she sees fit
Branwyn: So why did you stop. It sounds exciting and profitable
Youtargim: The Princess valued my skills and hired me and my fleet
Youtargim: my crew is at the quay waiting for orders
laughs sadly
Youtargim: that may not come if I am not successful in helping you
Craigh: How long ago?
Youtargim: I last sailed.... 5? 7? days ago?
N'laea: She hired you that recently?
Youtargim: I returned with spices and woven goods
Youtargim: I have worked for the Princess for 7 years
Youtargim: I take the idea that she sent me with you as a sign of great respect of her belief in my abilities
Youtargim: and of her belief in your skills and need of my assistance
Youtargim: We have no fate but the fate we are given
Branwyn: smiles
Bixi Fizzlebang: snorts a little
BOB Lisa and TMO have echoes of a game in a place long ago and far away
BOB Embrace the salt life
BOB &&&&&&&
BOB Ok so everyone has a good understanding of the characters involved?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Do you have a cat?
TMO (Craigh): (drawing a blank, sorry)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): That looked like cat typing
Carissa (N'laea): sure but now they all get to be surprised when they arrive :P
BOB Lordz season several years ago
Craigh: (ooohhh.. was trying to think of a D&D adventure)
TMO (Craigh): drat #1
Lisa: how his characters ended their letters in the Andalusia games
Craigh: Branwyn, do you think Howard and Johan would be willing to create a few scrolls for us to take with us?
Craigh: I've been going through the library, looking for useful things.
BOB So starting with Lorie, questions IC and OOC that you want to try to answer the rest of the night knowing that next week you will not be here but GATED to the other Plane?
Branwyn: I don't see why not. Feel free to talk with them about it
BOB Sorry TMO Continue
Craigh: I will, thanks.
Branwyn: Certainly
Craigh: As soon as I can move again....
Lorie (Licornah ): (I'll use Negative Plane Protection where I get there. I don't really have more questions, I'm a background character on this ride)
Branwyn: I am sorry you were so ill. Are your allergies better at least?
Craigh: nods.
Craigh: Yeah, that tea of Bixi's is pretty good.
Branwyn: Good!
Craigh: She makes a good apprentice.
Craigh: grins
Carissa (N'laea): lol
Bixi Fizzlebang: laughs
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ok, so when Craigh leaves the room, I want to cast an illusion of a disembodied arm holding a note that says,
Bixi Fizzlebang: how to whisperrrrr
TMO (Craigh): shrugs
Bixi Fizzlebang: test?
Bixi Fizzlebang: that says "I miss you"
Bixi Fizzlebang: can I do that?
Carissa (N'laea): no clue
BOB Yes to Lemon you are doing it right
Craigh -> Bixi Fizzlebang: test
BOB Yes to TMO too
Bixi Fizzlebang -> Craigh: test worked?
Craigh: - /w recipient message
BOB Yes to both TMO and Lemon
Phantasmal Force
BOB (LINK)
<a href="https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/996640083/Using+the+Chat+Window">(LINK)</a>
BOB I did not do the Phantasmal Force
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I did
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It's the spell I whispered you about
BOB See Ghosts
BOB So Licornah and Branwyn can talk about this upcoming trip
BOB Branwyn has gotten information from two other elves
BOB now she needs to quiz question the newest one
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): glad I'm not an elf right now
Lisa: lol
BOB Branwyn holds Bixi down.... WHAT did you know and when did you know it!!!!!! TELL ME NOW
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lollll
TMO (Craigh): physically restraining a gnome isn't too hard
TMO (Craigh): (LINK)
<a href="https://media.tenor.co/images/5c491111764c77a9bd3d7868a3dec638/raw">(LINK)</a>
Branwyn: Licornah, is there anything you think we should know before we go?
Licornah : :: ponders :: Well
Licornah : Besides the cloak, have you prepared her tribute?
Branwyn: I haven't. Isn't that something you all would do or should we all bring gifts?
Lisa (Branwyn): I'll give her the fancy chair!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ummmm, isn't bringing her back the very special cloak good enough? jeez. elf gods.
BOB grins to both Lisa and Lemon
Licornah : I'm not certain, but normally goddesses prefer a thank you for seeing them where I'm from
BOB Explain that chair idea Lisa, no one else but TMO understands that
Licornah : I'm pretty sure any goddess, even if she's not an elf
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): "hey, thanks for letting me GIVE YOU BACK THE THING I COULD HAVE KEPT!"
Licornah : tributes might look different to you -- a keg of ale or a basket of flowers or even a box of fruit
TMO (Craigh): we found an extremely fancy chair in a pit in the swamps once...
TMO (Craigh): sadly a bad appraisal roll made it worthless
Branwyn: I can see that. Really I am more of a ... carriage driver on this trip. I am counting on you and N'laea to take the lead here
Lisa (Branwyn): shhhhh ... but it looks great
BOB Uber by Branwyn
Bixi Fizzlebang: I wonder if she would like some of those special allergy herbs
Bixi Fizzlebang: do goddesses get allergies?
BOB Or would that be Branwyn Lifts
Branwyn: Probably not. But I am sure we can find some things that will be nice
Licornah : Perhaps a moon or star representation? Do you paint or draw? Carve or work with metal?
Licornah : Something handmade and personal might be better received?
TMO (Craigh): (we have a set of manacles, right?)
Lorie (Licornah ): (Not seeing that on her Amazon Wish List)
Bixi Fizzlebang: What about Gerry's never ending cheese wheels? Those are pretty special!
Branwyn: N'laea warned us against feywine and that cities could perhaps get enraptured by elven cities
Branwyn: laughs
Lisa (Branwyn): we could get enraptured
Lisa (Branwyn): sigh
Licornah : :: shrugs :: I'm not sure... where I'm from, it's simple tributes. Cheese is usually not on the list, but perhaps?
Craigh: What is normal?
Licornah : In Silvermoon, they leave silver balls or harps in her honor... where the others are from, I cannot say what they use
Licornah : My father and mother often put out a silver ball near the harvest season
Branwyn: This is very helpful. Thank you
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): like a ball bearing? does she play pinball?
Licornah : Pin ball?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): that was ooc
Lorie (Licornah ): (oooh, yes, she's quite the wizard LOL )
Craigh: Do we have a silversmith in Dragons Fen?
Lisa (Branwyn): LOL
BOB Yes
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol!
BOB you have a jeweler over at the mining complex
BOB and yes LOL at the Who
BOB Letting everyone think about how to move forward
Branwyn: We can send word to Snee about a smith
BOB so far on the timeline we have Bixi learning one spell and Branwyn learning how to recalibrate the Amulet to go to a Plane that Licor and N'laea and Rae tell her about
Craigh: Yes, I was thinking if Licornah would write up a short description of them, if there's anything special about them, we can get those ordered.
BOB and Licornah telling you to create silver balls
BOB sad that you are missing......
TMO (Craigh): Craigh has spells picked out to scroll
Lorie (Licornah ): (OOC - Diadem's are also sacred to Sehaine in some circles, but IC not sure if my character would be that familiar to know)
Lisa (Branwyn): brb
User has gone AFK. (Lisa)
BOB Sure to Lorie
BOB and how many did you want to try for TMO?
Lorie (Licornah ): (then I share that with the group since they know a jeweler)
BOB Carissa? any additions?
BOB My list of who wants to go right now to the Elven Plane is:
BOB Tiberius, Youtargim that I am in control of
BOB Branwyn and Indigo
Carissa (N'laea): (they did already have one tribute in the handmade back, that's all I'll add)
Carissa (N'laea): *bag
BOB N'laea and Rae
BOB Craigh
BOB Bixi
BOB Licornah
BOB Talwin and Lanek
BOB so 11 in total
TMO (Craigh): I'm just doing 1 spell per person, as many scrolls as they can make and we're willing to pay for in the time allotted. Craigh: Read Magic (1st); Johan: Detect Magic (1st); Howard: Dimension Door (4th)
BOB is that right?
TMO (Craigh): we already have 2 Comprehend Languages scrolls
BOB Yes to TMO for trying to create those scrolls I have those on the timeline along with Bixi learning the new spell
BOB and Branwyn reading and learning how to control the amulet
BOB and going with the idea that the least amount of time possible
BOB before heading to "the Elven plane"
BOB Carissa are you here? do you have any hints on where you are going?
Carissa (Carissa): I'm here. I don't know what other hints to add besides the ones I've already tossed out, either on site or attempted to IC
Craigh: my thought with the scrolls is to get a store of the 'non-combat utility' spells so that caster's can spend their slots on more combat or personal-style magic
TMO (Craigh): drat #2
Carissa (Carissa): And the fact we may or may not end up seeing more than one gods and if we want to plan for that if we're doing tributes
User is back. (Lisa)
BOB you can safely guess more than one
Lorie (Licornah ): (OOC Sehaine does have sisters )
Carissa (Carissa): depends on the lore
BOB see above
Lorie (Licornah ): (and at least one daughter)
Lisa (Branwyn): Bixi!!
BOB DOH thank you Lisa
BOB 12 is the number
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi what!?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): as a tribute??
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I volunteer as tribute!
BOB not 13, not 11 unless proceeding to 12
Branwyn: oh wait you did say that - came back from afk and the chat was stuck for a minute
Lorie (Licornah ): (I'm from District 12, so I guess I'd have to volunteer)
Carissa (Carissa): I'm less concerned about her family and more about run into as we walk along. Hanali? Solonor? Rillifane? They at least have followers or some connection to the group. If we travel through the forest with the Lone Wolf or the Meadows and the Halfling god. It's really up in the air. Or even Corellon himself as her husband/father/whatever
Lisa (Branwyn): lol Lemon
BOB grins, every Player has a character, plus and I have two
Lisa: with that many characters going I want to leave Indigo behind
BOB abd LOL Lorie
BOB No to Lisa, I have a plan for a halfling
Carissa (Carissa): Gods of Gold Hill there so.... he has to go :)
BOB so Indigo or you recruit a new one tonight, grins
Lisa: maybe my halfling doesn't want any part of your "plans"
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I was just saying at the beginning that we could just go rouge and do whatever...
BOB I am certain that he does not want to be
BOB BUT
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): rogue*
Lisa: fine
Carissa (Carissa): it's not going to be a short trip either way
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): If you want to go rogue, I support you, Lisa.
BOB grins with Lemon you are going to I am certain but I need to get you to a certain point first
TMO (Craigh): I can make Indigo's second cousin Mauve if you like. ;)
Lorie (Licornah ): (OOC Was the cloak stolen by the group, or lent to the group, or found by the group?)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): octarine
BOB IC you think this will be a quick go deliver and come back..... OOC this will take months and you will take all your normal supplies when you go out adventuring
TMO (Craigh): found
Lorie (Licornah ): (Thanks)
BOB TMO tell them how it was found
Lisa: this whole trip is going to be a Branwyn nightmare lol
Carissa (Carissa): Nahh Elven plane means everyone’s gonna be drunk and partying.
Lorie (Licornah ): (Not sure how long everyone "wants" to be there, but I'd recommend blip in and out and not wear out our welcome)
BOB That is cute Lorie
Carissa (Carissa): You'll be blissed out on life, man.
BOB checks calendar for July of 2022 for when the adventure ends
TMO (Craigh): a mysterious dilapidated magic goods shop in a dim alley, that wasn't there the next day?
Lisa: manticore loot was it not?
BOB smiles with Lisa
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): yeah, you're welcome
Carissa (Carissa): yes
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): that cloak was my roll, pretty sure
Carissa (Carissa): which was recent enough, we haven't held onto it too long
BOB yes it was Lemon
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): so whatever happens to indigo is indirectly my fault lol
Lisa: yes you delivered much valuable loot that night!
Lisa: no it is always Bob's fault
BOB They defeated a Manticore( Greek monster) while they were dealing with a desert encounter (huh) and now you are delivering an Elven cloak to the Elven Gods (where at least two of your elves do not want to venture back to).... so yes this is a normal on the spur of the moment adventure that BOB had not intention of planning
TMO (Craigh): sorry I blanked on the source
Lisa: see? Bob's fault
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): So you just LET ME BELIEVE I had super magical rolls that night!?
BOB BOWS
TMO (Craigh): oh, you did. So magical in fact that you forced Bob to create an entire adventure around
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): rage quit. table flip. other similar emotes.
BOB LOL to Lemon and yes to TMO
TMO (Craigh): I mean, I rolled up Charon's personal drinking cup, and it's still in our vault. No adventure there. ;)
BOB and so you have one more hour to make sure all your things are set
BOB and yes Lorie, that is right TMO rolled up Charon's cup and you still have an adventure coming for that one
BOB you are welcome
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): how can I ever trust again?
TMO (Craigh): how many scrolls is each wizard able to make?
Lorie (Licornah ): (Oh... great. I'm here for that... )
BOB not sure yet TMO waiting on final time frame rolls
TMO (Craigh): right, np
BOB First Lorie anything you want to RP or OOC for the group tonight
BOB you will not be here next week so making sure we cover your things
BOB then we move to Branwyn learning the Amulet
Lorie (Licornah ): ((:: shrug :: Not sure what's needed at this point... I'm here to support the group as best I can)
Lorie (Licornah ): (since I'll be 1 round behind, not sure what else I can contribute)
BOB Anything that Lorie wants to Roleplay with Carissa about Elves and where to Plane Shift to?
BOB You will only be one round behind one night
BOB there will be MANY nights to this adventure
BOB trust me on that
Lisa: how much trouble can we get into in one night? ;)
BOB LOL
Lorie (Licornah ): ((:: laughs :: ))
BOB Love that Lisa
Carissa: depends how many days it takes to get through one night
BOB I just want Lorie to have her chance tonight
Lisa: yes
BOB Help and RP etc.
Licornah : :: turns :: Do you have your speech prepared for Sehaine and her attendants? About why it's taken so long to return the cloak?
Licornah : Do you have a justification for presenting non-elves to Sehaine?
TMO (Craigh): cue Branwyn explosion in 3, 2, ....
Indigo: We can wait outside. It's okay
Lisa (Indigo): she wasn't talking to her
Lorie (Licornah ): (She's talking to the group in general, not anyone in particular)
N'laea: Do you know if she even has a palace? Many of the Seldarine roam. It is more likely she will find us.
Indigo: Unless it's all outside ...
Indigo: scratched his head
N'laea: It could easily be.
Licornah : :: Nods ::
Tiberius Branadarus: The Elves really like to be outside
Tiberius Branadarus: But I am not sure they mean Outside Outside instead of Outside outside
Tiberius Branadarus: if you know what I mean
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): oh here we go again. Outside outside. WHEN when.
N'laea: Outside outside?
Licornah : :: thinks :: I don't believe she does have a formal temple
Indigo: Outside of the outside where the elves are
Tiberius Branadarus: Sorry you Elves seem to have the idea that there is an Outside where only Elves understand
Tiberius Branadarus: where Indigo and I go out and play outside and it is just fine
Licornah : In Silvermoon, it's more a shrine -- but, I'm not sure in other places, it could be larger or more formal
Craigh: I got the impression somewhere, maybe a book in my old master's library, that the outer planes were nearly infinite in size. Is it really going to be that easy to find a god there?
N'laea: Ah. Yes, certainly far from any cities. It is preferrable.
Indigo: It's a nice place, right? Not like Pandemonium. You can do divination stuff and ask people without getting having to fight them
Licornah : What about where you're from, do they have a formal temple for her?
Raelynn: She has a temple in Loosend, and I know Hanali has her own crystal palace she resides in in Arvandor, but I don't know about Moonbow...
N'laea: It is our final resting place. Or parts of it. I am not sure which, but it is the greatest reward to a fulfilling life.
Youtargim: All these names and all these places, are you sure we can go to all these places?
N'laea: But... as I was attempting to say earlier, it may overwhelm non-elves. It will be beautiful beyond belief. It can be hard for many to handle.
Bixi Fizzlebang: Don't we have to try?
Bixi Fizzlebang: I mean if it's not really OURS the least we can do is TRY to give it back
Tiberius Branadarus: YES
Tiberius Branadarus: See Bixi gets it
Tiberius Branadarus: It is an Adventure!
N'laea: Yes. And she is the Goddess of Journeys. She may be watching over our journey to return it to her.
Tiberius Branadarus: Oooooo
Indigo: Should we make a sign?
Tiberius Branadarus: So we need to prepare properly
Tiberius Branadarus: make sure we are set for a long journey
Tiberius Branadarus: That is good to know
Tiberius Branadarus: You are smart N'laea
Tiberius Branadarus: So much smarter than Kel was
N'laea: Thank you?
Tiberius Branadarus: he has a sword, that he thinks talks to him
Carissa (N'laea): (oh gods she's not replacing him; Tiberius is never meeting the sword now)
TMO (Craigh): lol
N'laea: Ah... well, apparently swords like that exist.
BOWS
Craigh: Hummmm.. Do we need to bring some blindfolds, if someone does swoon over the architecture?
Tiberius Branadarus: Architecture?
N'laea: I do not know. Perhaps? I am also wondering if you need to be careful of eating there...
Tiberius Branadarus: Really? swooning over that?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Or some kind of herbs to counteract the wine?
N'laea: I imagine all the food there would be like our feywine here.
Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 8] [d20 = 6]
Tiberius Branadarus: I mean I can see some goddess almost being as beautiful as Branwyn
Tiberius Branadarus: but seriously a building?
Craigh: I've heard myths of people being blinded by gods merely for accidentally glimpsing them.
N'laea: Not a building. The whole plane.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): gag me with a spoon
Raelynn: Well we DO know Hanali is more beautiful than you can ever imagine!
Tiberius Branadarus: I don't know I can imagine quite a lot
Bixi Fizzlebang: Us specifically or everyone?
Tiberius Branadarus: (quote)
Raelynn: Although... I don't think she'd blind you for seeing her. She's not vengeful.
Bixi Fizzlebang: That would be pretty rude
Tiberius Branadarus: I think that Indigo and I can handle it
N'laea: The Seldarine in general are not, but they are still gods. There is no telling.
Raelynn: Handle what?
Tiberius Branadarus: Being charmed by goddesses
Raelynn: How exactly do you plan to fight beauty? Using a sword? You can't fight everything with a sword.
Tiberius Branadarus: Indigo charms lots of people
Craigh: I hope we don't have to do any fighting at all.
Raelynn: I mean that would definitely guarantee you'd be blinded.
Raelynn: If not killed...
Bixi Fizzlebang: I feel very confident that you would absolutely not be able to handle it, Tiberius.
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol)
Tiberius Branadarus: laughs
Tiberius Branadarus: I will rely on you and Indigo to guard me Bixi
Bixi Fizzlebang: Hey, I don't think I can help you much if you upset a goddess
Tiberius Branadarus: (and quote)
Indigo: laughs
Craigh: Is the goddess notoriously vain? Perhaps she would enjoy a silver mirror if so.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I have a lot of skills, but going up against gods is not one of them
TMO (Craigh): anybody can fight a god. winning is another matter entirely
Tiberius Branadarus: OH didn’t we have that mirror against the Medusa?
Lisa (Indigo): we keep getting all these reasons for none of us non elves to even go
N'laea: mutters to Craigh, "Maybe we should blindfold him."
TMO (Craigh): I think 'common sense' is at the top of the list
Indigo: That was Ilero
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I know better than to try
TMO (Craigh): *grins in thievish accomplishment*
BOB And yet Lisa somehow you have a dozen people following along..... grins
N'laea: You do not fight the gods. If that is your plan, perhaps it is better you stay behind.
Lisa (Indigo): don't fight, eat, drink or look - anything we can do? :)
Raelynn: Hanali? Vain? Mmmm, not really? She's more concerned about love and beautiful things, not her beauty herself even though she is VERY beautiful.
Bixi Fizzlebang: If Tiberius gets taken hostage by the goddess, I'm not going to try to rescue him. Just for the record.
BOB Stand Still Look Pretty
TMO (Craigh): Craigh can do that!
BOB LOL with Bixi
Craigh: poses
Carissa (N'laea): (lol and it is all their guesses, they don't actually know; besides elven stuff is like drugs and apparently some people like doing drugs!)
BOB I have laughed so hard I have hic cups
TMO (Craigh): mission accomplished!
Lisa (Indigo): lol
TMO (Craigh): we have defeated a god!
Carissa (N'laea): it's fun breaking bob
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol
N'laea: Just... be respectful. That is all.
Indigo: I'm respectful
N'laea: I do not worry about you.
Carissa (N'laea): looking directly at Tiberius
N'laea: looking directly at Tiberius
BOB LOL
Indigo: He's a prince. He's used to dealing with important people. He'll be fine
Bixi Fizzlebang: I just want to go in there, say "hello, here is your cloak that we found, it's very beautiful, we hope you're happy to have it back, here's some presents thank you for letting us give your cloak back, bye" and then go home for some cheese.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I do not want to do rescue missions
N'laea: Yes. There should not be reason to linger provided we find her quick enough.
Craigh: nods
Bixi Fizzlebang: looks pointedly at Tiberius
Raelynn: Ummmmm
Raelynn: But.......
Raelynn: bites her lip and whispers
Raelynn: You're version of quick isn't the same as... other people.
Raelynn: *your
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh no, is there a time traveling half ghost in elf god lands?
Raelynn: No no no. It's just.... elves can be... elves.
BOB That is a quote
Raelynn: I, um, I'm better at.... time, but um, not.... all of us... are.
N'laea: frowns
Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't even know what that means, so I think I must be part of the "not all of us"
Raelynn: No. You're good at time. It's just... MOST elves are... not.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I will trust the elves to know best in this situation and follow directions
Bixi Fizzlebang: looks pointedly at Tiberius again
Raelynn: So quick might not be.... quick. And the gods might... not let us find them quick.
Raelynn: Because... um, well, ...elves.
Bixi Fizzlebang: Well that's fine. As long as it's not OUR fault for upsetting someone
Bixi Fizzlebang: stares at Tiberius
Indigo: If we can find her house and she's not home we could just leave it with a note or something
N'laea: I will not leave until I hand it directly to her. You may, but I cannot.
Bixi Fizzlebang: Would it be safe to just leave a cloak?
Indigo: You haven't see Branadarus with the Queen and stuff. He'll be fine
Indigo: Right?
Indigo: looks at Branadarus
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is that their celebrity couple name?
Lisa (Indigo): That is their last name
Lisa (Indigo): lol
Tiberius Branadarus: I have never met a Goddess before but how much more important can they be?
Carissa (N'laea): But yes, together they are... Bran Bran
Tiberius Branadarus: I grew up with a witch for a mother
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh. Their last name is also their celebrity couple name... that's adorable
Craigh: Dear Goddess, found your robe, had it dry-cleaned, here it is. Bye!
N'laea: tries to emphasize it this time
N'laea: She is the mother of all elves.
N'laea: ALL elves.
Craigh: Metaphorically, or literally?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I guess it would be Branadarus. Or Talwin.
N'laea: There are precious few as important as her.
Tiberius Branadarus: See I know how to get along with mothers
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Branberius?
Indigo: That's why I said we could wait outside outside
Raelynn: She really is! We sprang from her and Corellon! Um, depending who you ask is how it happened, but it happened!
Tiberius Branadarus: yes outside outside instead of OUTSIDE outside
Bixi Fizzlebang: I worry that we would be waiting... a LONG time
Indigo: But if you are half elf so her and someone else?
Tiberius Branadarus: OOOOO
Raelynn: bites her lip again
Raelynn: It's still important to me.
Tiberius Branadarus: Raelyn has a secret past
Indigo: I know
Tiberius Branadarus: Wow
Tiberius Branadarus: I never knew
Bixi Fizzlebang: Who doesn't?
N'laea: How could you not?
Indigo: I don't have a secret past
N'laea: The little gypsy girl says you're the one who told her how to tell if someone is an elf or not.
N'laea: Something about ears.
Tiberius Branadarus: I always thought you could tell an elf by the ears
Tiberius Branadarus: OH
Tiberius Branadarus: YES!!!!
Tiberius Branadarus: Indigo!
Tiberius Branadarus: that is how we solve it
Indigo: Ears?
Tiberius Branadarus: when we get there we just ask to see their ears!
Craigh: waits to see where this conversation is going.
Tiberius Branadarus: THAT will prove how gets the cloak
Bixi Fizzlebang: buries her face in her hands
N'laea face palm
Indigo: sighs
Indigo: They're all elves! We're the only ones that won't be
N'laea: Perhaps, as Branwyn says, you should let us take the lead here. For... all our sakes.
Indigo: No point
Tiberius Branadarus: I thought all elves has pointy ears Indigo?
Raelynn: Um, well mostly. But they have allies that aren't elves that might also be there.
Indigo: Yes and where we go they will all be elves
Tiberius Branadarus: I guess N'laea is right we should listen to Branwyn
Raelynn: Oh! No it's a forest so there'll be animals and stuff too!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): no point!? pun intended???
Tiberius Branadarus: She is much smarter than I am
Lisa (Indigo): always intended
Raelynn: And meadows and crystals and stuff!
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oooh, the animals might be able to help us find them quicker!
Carissa (Raelynn): (thank you)
grins at Lemon All Puns are intended
Bixi Fizzlebang: Will I be able to cast spells there? Is there a mist or anything?
N'laea: shrugs
N'laea: We've never been. I cannot say.
Tiberius Branadarus: Huh, animal you say? should we take the leopard?
Tiberius Branadarus: Or the Elven cat?
Indigo: The Mist is from vampires so unless there are vampires there I don't think there will be Mist
N'laea: I... hmm, I do not even know if the other cats are coming.
Tiberius Branadarus: Bixi said we should take animals
Bixi Fizzlebang: Isn't one of them an elven cat?
N'laea: I will offer it to them. They may.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I did not!
Indigo: Demi and Dahlia are going to get sad if you take everyone away from them. I would leave the cat with them to play with
Lisa (Indigo): good idea on the cat!
Jilly: It is almost lunch time
Jilly: Did you want fruit? or bread?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): didn't we just finish breakfast?
(after how many hours of talking?)
N'laea: I am still full.
Indigo: Fruit please
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Well, not that many, we didn't even start until 7:30
N'laea: Ah! Jilly, I was told you met a unicorn once?
blushes
Jilly: yes I did
Licornah : :: turns and listens quietly ::
N'laea: nods towards Licornah
Bixi Fizzlebang: Bixi's eyes widen
N'laea: She is a unicorn priestess.
Jilly: ooooo
Jilly: Don’t you just love their coats
Jilly: they are so soft and warm
Licornah : :: looks down :: I have only seem them from afar... I hope one day to get close enough
Jilly: and then their manes are just sooooo flowery and so dreamy
Craigh: chuckles a horse wearing a thick winter coat
Craigh: *picturing
Jilly: Oh I am sorry
HUGS Licornah
Bixi Fizzlebang: Jilly, how did you get so close to one?
Licornah : I am so happy for you... it's quite an honor.
Jilly: You will get to see one
Jilly: I hope
Licornah : Are you a Silvermaiden?
Jilly: Not that I know of
bounces her baby on her hip
Jilly: I was just trying to save Branwyn, she gets in trouble
Jilly: and someone has to save her
Licornah : What an honor for you ...
Jilly: so I went off into the woods
Jilly: and went to the bugbear keep to see if I could find her
Jilly: but then Billy was there and took care of the problems
Jilly: and so I was able to save Branwyn
Jilly: and here we are
Jilly: smiles
Raelynn: quietly to Bixi
Indigo: Jilly used to save everybody
Raelynn: They say if you've, um, had relations, you'll never meet one.
Jilly: Used to?
Bixi Fizzlebang: blushes
SMACKS Indigo with her spoon
Indigo: You're a mom now
Indigo: HEY!
Indigo: OWWW
Indigo: You save me from starving?
Indigo: grins
Jilly: Silly Raelynn, there are no unicorns in the Valoris Wood, Acien would know
Jilly: and you are always starving Indigo
Jilly: No one can save you from your hunger
Laughs
Raelynn: Oh. I didn't think there were any. I just was told how to meet one, or, um, why you might not.
Indigo: Not always!
Jilly: BUT I have a strudel for you for dinner tonight
Indigo: Good! Thank you!
Jilly: Raelyn, silly I know what you mean
Jilly: If you do not believe in them you will not see a unicorn
Jilly: I believe in them
Jilly: They just do not live near here
Licornah : :: nods in agreement ::
Raelynn: Oh. Hmm. I only know the rumors around the temple...
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): How can Jilly have a baby but also be that naive?
(the joy of Jilly)
Jilly: Where are you going this time?
Jilly: I need to know how much to pack for Indigo
N'laea: The Elven plane.
Craigh: I think we may need more food than normal, if foraging for local food is going to be a problem.
Jilly: Did he ever tell you about the time I had to go with him all the way south and I ended up buying more cooking gear because he lost all of our things?
N'laea: Oh, foraging is likely fine. It is cooked meals I am unsure about.
Jilly: OH Craigh, you think I need to come with you to cook?
Jilly: That would be fun
N'laea: Hunting is... dependent.
Jilly: I have not been on an adventure in
Raelynn: points to the baby
Raelynn: Isn't that why?
Jilly: She can come with
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): where are grandma and grandpa when you need them?
Jilly: or I can leave her with the nanny
N'laea: I do not think we need so many to return a single item.
BOB Points to Branwyn to explain the Grandfather idea
Youtargim: I am happy to come along but I do not want to be a baby sitter, sorry Countess
Bixi Fizzlebang: From the sounds of things, Jilly, we might be gone for a long time, and Tiberius might get us in trouble with some goddesses.
Raelynn: We shouldn't bring a baby with us anyways. That seems wrong.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't think you'd want to risk that with the baby so young still
Indigo: looks up from her book
Carissa (Raelynn): (and the gods might believe us once when we say "we're not with him!" but not twice)
Branwyn: looks up from her book at Youtargim
Branwyn: No one asked you to
BOB LOL with Carissa
BOB and SCENE
BOB thank you everyone
Lisa: we ready to travel?
Carissa: I think at this point, N'laea is tempted to talk Branwyn into them both stealing away into the night and leaving everyone else behind
Lisa: LOL
BOB I need a 2d10 roll from Lisa for how many days it takes her to read the book and understand how to re-calibrate the amulet please
BOB and LOL
Lisa: [2d10 = 13]
BOB so 13 days
TMO (Craigh): from a purely practical point-of-view, Craigh is a logical one to leave behind.
BOB you started on 22-7-351 and end up on 8-8-351 when you are ready to leave
Carissa: And let his apprentice wander off without him??
Lisa: no TMO
TMO (Craigh): oh, I didn't think we would, merely pointing it out
Carissa: How will she manage without Craigh??
BOB that gives Craigh, Howard, and Johan 12 days to work on scrolls to take
BOB grins
Carissa: Also I disagree. Tiberius should clearly be left behind :)
TMO (Craigh): how do I stop talking as Craigh?
Lisa: lol
Carissa: release him
BOB as I said I have two, Lisa has two, Carissa has two everyone else has one character
Carissa: let him be free
Lorie: right click on icon and release
Lemon: Omg yes, leave Tiberius
BOB I want to break free,
TMO: ah, there we go. I did not think an Eraser icon was 'Release'
Carissa: ...so for when we split the party, you mean?
BOB I want to break free from your.....
Lisa: I miss him!
BOB someone else can add the link
Carissa: over my head and not sure that reference so... someone else
BOB Queen
Carissa: Encanto is still firmly stuck in my brain
Lorie: (it's always Queen) :: laughs ::
Carissa: Tiberius is fun, but man, he makes me worry.
TMO: I've got the stats for a second character, but still not sold on an idea yet.
Lorie: (we're two moments away from the Highlander Soundtrack)
Carissa: Also I still refuse to talk as that sword so you can prepare to talk to yourself if Tiberius is ever to meet it, Bob.
Lorie: (oh boy... talking sword, you should give it back)
TMO: aha! my second character! a sword!
Carissa: Yes! TMO can have it!
BOB but Branwyn, Indigo, Craigh, Licornah, Lanek, Bixi, Rae, N'laea, Talwin, Tiberius and Youtagrim
Carissa: I mean speak as it. I don't know if he has the stats for it.
TMO: Avast, ye scurvy swabs! Prepare to be run through!
Lemon: Can't you just give it to him?
Carissa: Sure that's fine. It's still not me talking as the sword :)
TMO: wtf is Craigh going to do with a sword?
Carissa: Well... the sword needs a good WIS roll and... I really really doubt Tiberius would make it.
Lemon: Talk to it?
BOB true
Lemon: seems like he could use a friend
TMO: lol
Carissa: I have no clue for his WIS roll or... sword fighting ability.
Carissa: We're not THAT shorthanded yet.
BOB Who am I missing
TMO: if we're talking Tiberius, LOW, and HIGH.
TMO: if it's Craigh, it's Middling, and LOW
Carissa: list looks correct to me
BOB 11 characters all together?
Carissa: and possibly one or two cats?
Carissa: At least the Elven cat.
Lemon: That's too many. I vote for leaving Tiberius.
Carissa: He'll win you over. Eventually. Maybe.
Lorie: I could just skip since I won't be here
BOB do you want to take one or two cats?
Lemon: I mean, he had me when he said I wasn't confusing... and then he quickly lost me
BOB you will be here Lorie, you are only missing next week
Carissa: Hmm... I'm really suspicious that the panther isn't just a panther and might actually have good senses if not.. a bit of attitude but therefore useful....
Lemon: I mean, we should probably ask them if they want to go
Carissa: Also think it'll pick a fight with the wolves if left behind.
BOB I am not saying yes to that Carissa,
TMO: me quickly slides a were-panther character idea to Bob
Lisa: but are you saying no?
BOB slides back to TMO I have a better idea
Carissa: Not saying yes to what?
Lemon: better is subjective
Carissa: Abnormal panther OR picking fights OR coming along?
TMO: I'll listen to your pitch
Lisa: lol
Lisa: D all of the above
BOB the group has to decide on what to do with three different cats
Carissa: lol
TMO: tie their tails together and bet on the fracas?
TMO: flees
Lisa: Spotty stay with the kids
Lemon: Imagine if we didn't bring all these cats back, how much easier our lives would be right now
Lisa: lol
Carissa: Well one has a home now if it stops ripping up furniture. Elven cat is mostly behaved and a cool creature anyways so can stay with N'laea for however long. But that panther... there is something about that panther that makes me want to keep it along for a bit, too.
BOB and I will have the number of scrolls that Craigh, Howard and Johan create, tell me what scrolls you are attempting and I will tell you how far you got next week
Carissa: Tempting as it is to just toss them all into the forest to be a different elf's problem :)
TMO: Craigh: Read Magic; Johan: Detect Magic; Howard: Dimension Door (4th)
Lemon: So, BOB, are you saying that if we ask the cats, they're going to answer whatever we want them to whether they go or not?
BOB and I will see how many of each you create TMO
Lorie: (good thing that panther didn't come with it's own amulet, or we'd have bigger problems -- :: laughs :: )
TMO: thx
BOB grins with Lorie
Carissa: wait wait no are we sure it didn't? maybe it does have a home and easy solution! :)
BOB and I never said anything about that Lemon
BOB You try to talk with the cats, grins
Lemon: Well it's just from the way you're talking, that's what I'm inferring
Carissa: Well she'll approach it like she has been: this is what we're doing, you're welcome to come if you'd like, but you are cats so you'll do what you want.
Lisa: The cats can say whatever they want but if you grab them and teleport they're going
Carissa: Oh duh, also true
Lemon: Yeah, I just feel like if we CAN talk to them, it's super rude to just drag them with us
BOB Would I ever give you four different story arc possibilities in one encounter?
Lemon: Like, if they don't want to go, they could just maul us
Carissa: minimum
TMO: do we need to answer that?
Lisa: I think the cats are happy they aren't in Pandemonium. They're good
BOB anything else for the night?
Carissa: they should be
Lemon: I mean we can definitely try to bribe them with cheese
BOB and when we pick up next week Branwyn starts her incantation to take you all to ...... what ever plane it is that you are going to after her research
Lemon: But if we're just dragging them with, Bixi is zero percent on board with that
Carissa: Olympus but I wasn't sure the elves knew that part
Lisa: ok
Lisa: you keep changing your mind on the cat thing
Lisa: you wanted to ditch them at the inn
Lisa: we adopted them so we could be nice to them
BOB the group has to tell me if any or how many cats are coming along
Lisa: if we want to take them on a field trip it's all good
Carissa: You can't just dump kitties no matter how big and sometimes rough
Lemon: Yeah but they were being DIFFICULT then, we still gave them the choice to come or not
Carissa: Eh just take the two if they'll go. Spotty can stay.
BOB cats? difficult? WOW
Carissa: Unless others object
Lisa: yes
Lisa: yes to you not yes to objecting
Carissa: lol didn't think you meant that but good to clarify
Lemon: lol, I Just got frustrated. Not used to dealing with cats
TMO: I say none - it's already going to be complicated
BOB Lorie before you go? yes to cats? or no?
Lorie: (I think the elven cat is a good idea as an ambassador)
TMO: but I'm okay if someone wants them
Lisa: and a gift
Lorie: (the other one, up to the group)
Lisa: we could get rid of one on the trip
Carissa: N'laea is already fostering. It is fact that 50% of fosters fail. Or some other number I make up.
BOB lol
Lemon: I would definitely be ok with the elven cat and maybe the leopard, but I definitely don't want to drag them against their will, so if y'all decide on that, I will be explaining to them that it was not my idea and I didn't like it. Whether they will care or not, who knows.
Carissa: But easiest way to find them a home if we don't want foster fails is to go out and show others they exist.
Carissa: No, panther would have to come, too. Still don't think it's a normal panther.
TMO: if there's a valid reason, I say it's okay to bring 'em.
BOB So it comes down to Elven cat alone or Elven cat with Panther
Lisa: leopard got adopted by Branwyn and she's staying
Lisa: she doesn't get to choose :)
Carissa: lol
BOB grins
Lemon: The leopard does seem very happy destroying the house she's living at now
BOB lol
Lisa: yes she's happy
Lemon: and she could probably escape if she wanted to
Carissa: Take them both. Maybe Solonor will show up and adopt the panther.
Lisa: if she wanted to she would have already
Carissa: Or maybe the panther will show a soft side and win Bixi over
BOB anyone objecting to the panther going along?
Lisa: not me
TMO: nope
BOB So we have our adventuring party
Lemon: Carissa, I wish you could have seen the face I Just made at that winning Bixi over comment
Carissa: :)
Lemon: but no objections
Lisa: Bixi could ride the panther
Carissa: True!
BOB 2 elves, a half elf, a gnome, a halfling, five humans, and two cats
TMO: 4.75 humans
Lemon: walk into a bar
Lisa: I'm going to take off
Lisa: Goodnight all!!
TMO: nite!
Carissa: Night!
'Lisa' disconnected
Lorie: Night all - see you in two weeks
BOB Would you like to try some honey?
BOB Have a great night everyone
Lemon: me too, I am exhausted. Goodnight!
'Carissa' disconnected
'Lemon' disconnected
Lorie: Let's go have tea with a beholder whilst we're at it
Lorie: I think that would be fun
BOB LOL yes Lorie
BOB it will be fun
Lorie: Good luck to everyone!
Lorie: Night
'Lorie' disconnected
TMO: thx for the game
'TMO' disconnected
