'seyfert' connected

GM: Hello Carissa

GM: Hope you like the changes for this story arc

seyfert: t looks a bit dark....I

GM: is just grey

GM: actually no Theme

seyfert: Laptop still loading, hold on. I logged in early for a reason :P

GM: no worries

seyfert: okay there we go

seyfert: Looks good. Did you get rid of that large text mod?

GM: no

GM: I changed the font though

seyfert: Hmm just looks tinier to me today

seyfert: Ah that might be it. Man, if I knew I'd be Iowa for a whole freakin' month I wouldn't have sent my laptop in for repairs yet

GM: I did have some issues with character sheets today

GM: so I changed some things and stopped some extensions

seyfert: Maybe that's why it loaded ~2 minutes faster than normal for me today ;)

GM: How are you feeling?

seyfert: Not bad. Still like a cold. I just don't want this to become bronchitis, and if it does, it needs to wait until I get home.

seyfert: And since they decided I'm virtual/remote, I at least get the weekend off now without needing to take time off.

GM: Excellent

seyfert: Still three days left on my meds, too, to make sure it's really gone.

seyfert: Tastes horrid, though.

GM: glad

GM: and that is not so much

seyfert: lol

seyfert: From what I've read, some people deal with the weird bitter taste for days after. Mine seems to disappear an hour or two after each dose so at least I get some relief.

GM: good

seyfert: g

seyfert: *Gonna have to grab my food soon, but otherwise I'm here. I've never ordered so much delivery before...

GM: go

seyfert: Not here yet :P

seyfert: Unrelated, was that little dice tower icon always there??

GM: Yes

GM: in different shapes/images

seyfert: Ahhhh

seyfert: Okay I didn't think I was that blind.

seyfert: The one downside is with the map as the background on this screen, I can't read any of it. But that'll change soon, I hope.

GM: You can go to Records Image and bring up Crainiate Wastes

GM: and then you have a map to zoom in on

seyfert: Good for future reference, not worried about it tonight. It's on the site anways.

GM: yes

'MadamePsychosis' connected

GM: Hello Lisa

seyfert: Hi Lisa!

GM: How do you like the text changes Lisa?

MadamePsychosis: Hi Carissa and Bob! :)

MadamePsychosis: It's fine. Back to small again

seyfert: So it isn't just me.... feels small

GM: OK that is good to know, I have both the Large Font working and a different font running

seyfert: Font is nice, but it's just smaller from what it was before on this screen

GM: so Large Font only works on the default

seyfert: So it isn't just me.... feels small

GM: I will ask about it on the FG Discord, see if there is something that can be changed

GM: So did you want me to close and change this font? to go back to the large font for the night?

MadamePsychosis: It's an easy to read font, but I need to put my glasses on for it - which is my problem :)

GM: I picked a different font for the next story arc

GM: LOL

seyfert: lmao, I don't mind, but I'm fine with whichever

GM: Trying to have a Theme, Font, and various background decals for each story arc

GM: to make them feel more like individual stories

MadamePsychosis: How's the covid Carissa?

seyfert: Not bad, still cold like. The medicine makes my mouth taste only bitterness for a few hours, but if that's my major complain, then I think I'm good!

seyfert: Although I think my delivery driver got lost and having to roder in food constantly is getting annoying..

GM: OH no

GM: They are delivering to NY?

MadamePsychosis: aren't you in a hotel?

'seyfert' disconnected

GM: With the light turn out we will get some things done tonight

GM: if there is a change you want me to make, font, etc. I can while we wait

'Master TMO' connected

'seyfert' connected

MadamePsychosis: I'm fine with you doing what you have planned

MadamePsychosis: while we are at home I will duplicate Indigo's potion

GM: Hello TMO and Carisa

MadamePsychosis: I want to do Identify on the fire seed

MadamePsychosis: Hi TMO :)

'LemonyLemon' connected

GM: and now Lemon is here

GM: excellent

Master TMO: 'ello chaps!

MadamePsychosis: Hi Lemon and TMO if he didn't see earlier hello

seyfert: Hi TMO and Lemon!

LemonyLemon: Hello!

MadamePsychosis: I guess we can have Ilero do appraising too

LemonyLemon: I am liking this color scheme

GM: So everyone here has gotten my messages about what happened while you were gone except Lemon

seyfert: aand yes, I want to check if difference between cloaks and if that quiver actually is anything

GM: Because Bixi is on her own with no one back in Dragon Fen to worry about

seyfert: That we know of....

GM: and yes to Lisa and Carissa about investigating, duplicating and experimenting

GM: and thank you Lemon

GM: glad you like it

GM: I am planning on using this Theme and Font for the Home Stories story arc

GM: and changing out the background decal as needed

GM: I will ask about if the Large Font can work with all fonts or not

GM: so we know no Michael or Sharif, likely no Spring

GM: Lorie will be later

GM: so this is our group

GM: giving everyone a moment to gather themselves I will empty and refill and then we can start with roleplay of the arrival

GM: brb

seyfert: Got your tissues ready for Gerry's funeral, Lemon?

LemonyLemon: The one NPC I really liked

LemonyLemon: This feels malicious

LemonyLemon: And purposeful :P

seyfert: lol we don't know if he's dead

seyfert: but uh, we don't know if he's alive, either

LemonyLemon: Yeah, sure, maybe he hired more help at the magical inn in the last one day.

LemonyLemon: That sounds likely

MadamePsychosis: He could have died years ago

LemonyLemon: He also could have been made immortal, after being caught in the smashing of the sands of time. But noooo, not with OUR DM

seyfert: Maybe he walked into the Mist

GM: and back

MadamePsychosis: NPCs come and go. It's been forever since we've seen Jennevive

LemonyLemon: *cough* welcome back. Definitely was not just trash talking you

seyfert: Maybe he's having an identity crisis. The possibilities!

GM: grins with Lemon

seyfert: Not to mention Sam. I hope we've passively been keeping int contact with him.

GM: and thank you for updating Home Base Lisa, the new Discord RSS bot is working

MadamePsychosis: Maybe he accidentally made a peanut butter and honey sandwich and time traveled somewhere

seyfert: lmao

LemonyLemon: lol

GM: LOL with Lisa

MadamePsychosis: Oh that update is going to take a while

seyfert: Graceland?

LemonyLemon: That's the only thing so far I would be ok with

MadamePsychosis: lol

Master TMO: if she updated a page, it didn't go into Discord that I can see

GM: On my discord where I installed that bot to test

GM: That can be later

Master TMO: I feel like I'm being replaced. :P

GM: LOL

LemonyLemon: Oooooh, that sounds like it would make using the website so much more user friendly...

seyfert: Back in my day, you had to actually LOOK at the site to ee what was updated!

GM: so you all have access to the Inn of the Lost Eagle map

GM: HAH with Carissa

GM: your characters are there now

Master TMO: it actually makes more sense for Bob to have his own Discord for the campaign, so if he decides to do it I won't fuss. ;)

GM: No combat tracker to start the night

seyfert: Good because not sure everyone got their full heal when I saw N'laea sheet

GM: We all owe you a LOT TMO

Craigh: I know. :D

GM: I will double check that Carissa

GM: grins with TMO

seyfert (N'laea): He's keep a tab, no worries

'LorieD' connected

GM: and there we go Lorie is here

GM: Welcome

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Hello Lorie!

Master TMO (Craigh): I've been adequately repaid for my services over the years, no worries

seyfert (N'laea): Hi Lorie!

Master TMO (Craigh): hi!

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): But with what currency, TMO?

seyfert (N'laea): He recently bought a second Yacht

MadamePsychosis: Hi Lorie!

GM: So Lorie and TMO have not given thoughts on the new Font and Theme

GM: You can do that later

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Maybe they don't care

GM: I am on the party sheet

GM: OUCH Lemon, I am crushed

GM: grins

GM: all healing fixed

seyfert (N'laea): except Bob's feelings

GM: Letting Lorie let us know she is ready

Bixi Fizzlebang: Just discovered I have dried glue all over my elbow, so yay

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc

seyfert (N'laea): are you sure? seems like a Bixi thing to say, too...

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol, you're not wrong

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm just wondering how the kids got glue all over my elbow without me noticing

Master TMO (Craigh): 3 as distraction, 2 to do the deed

LorieD (Licornah): (Hi all - I love the new font, sorry, girls all here at once, crowdful -- hope everyone is doing okay)

seyfert (N'laea): wait I just realized my cookies are missing from my order! damnit

GM: that sucks Carissa

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): noooooo, not the cookies!

LorieD (Licornah): (No Cookies... Complain loudly )

MadamePsychosis: oh no! they missed the best part

GM: Glad for that Lorie, maybe KID or ACD will join in one day

LorieD (Licornah): We will see

seyfert (N'laea): I was looking forward to those :(

MadamePsychosis: just to make sure - when it says 13 500 g.p. gems - each gem is 500 gp each?

GM: Yes

GM: the benefits of Olympus

LorieD (Licornah): (So... did we lay waste to the Wizards of Thay yet?)

Master TMO (Craigh): yes, it's as if they never existed.

GM: grins

GM: ready ? Set?

LorieD (Licornah): (What are we doing?)

GM: This is the Just Arrived back at the Inn Roleplay

LorieD (Licornah): (and you killed off the only nice NPC, classic)

GM: soft sigh

GM: moving along?

MadamePsychosis: and I am giving N'laea the Quiver of 11 +2 magic arrows

seyfert (Raelynn): gotta check his pulse to see if he's really dead

seyfert (Raelynn): (ty!)

MadamePsychosis: put that on your sheet - separate from elf goddess gift

Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 14] [d20 = 1]

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I want to know the state of the plants here vs last time we were here

Master TMO (Craigh): Bob - can you put the Rope of Binding in my inventory, so I can read the stats

seyfert (Raelynn): (will do that once home on better PC)

GM: You will notice that Bixi's Botany skill is better

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm sorry, am I guaranteed successful botany rolls now?

GM: No she got a plus 5%

GM: it is in her notes on the Botany skill

MadamePsychosis: nothing is guaranteed

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, I got confused because of the 1

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is it backwards still?

GM: Lower is better for skill checks

GM: you used to have a 14 now you have a 15

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): +5 only gives me +1?

GM: so you will succeed 75% of the time

GM: 1 out of 20 is 5%

LorieD (Licornah): (Very awesome...)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm so confused, but ok, just going with it

GM: and so you all ARRIVE in the courtyard of the Inne of the Lost Eagle

seyfert (Raelynn): 5e you like higher than, but for 2e on skills a 1 is a critical success while for actions you want a 20 for critical success

Master TMO (Craigh): it was one of the issues with 2e

Stable boy: WOW,

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Who invented these crazy numbers rules

Stable boy: Who are you?

Master TMO (Craigh): Gary Gygax

Stable boy: WHERE did you come from?

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): just an FYI - branwyn will be having a panic attack in a few minutes

LorieD (Licornah): (E. Gary Gygax)

Raelynn: Hmm, you weren't here last time, were you?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, well, I have WORDS for him when I see him in Hell

Bixi Fizzlebang: Is Gerry around?

Noble with horse : Boy! Where is my guard?

Craigh: The Countess Branwyn, and right here. A while ago.

Noble with horse : looks at the group, sniffs, you look .... presentable

Raelynn: And you look.... less than.

Craigh: checks his boots for horse poop

Stable boy: Yes Sir, just a moment Sir,

seyfert (Raelynn): huh I thought she had etiquette....but I can't open klooge to check if it didn't transfer

Stable boy: I will get him out of the Inn for you

Klooge is up,

Noble with horse : So

seyfert (Raelynn): (if I open it on my laptop, everything will crash but almost positive she had etiquette as a skill)

Noble with horse : You have heard of this lovely place I take it?

Noble with horse : The atmosphere is so cleansing

Bixi Fizzlebang: louder "IS GERRY AROUND?"

Raelynn: Quite lovely with the sunshine, isn't it?

Noble with horse : Lovely to not have The Mist isn't it?

Craigh: May we know who we're talking with?

Noble with horse : Looks at the gnome, Why do you want to talk to a lowly barkeep?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Gerry is my friend, and has way more manners than you, apparently

Noble with horse : I am Lord Goplin

seyfert (Raelynn): (Im gonna risk it because she has a reason to use it if she had it...)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ganis Goplin?

Noble with horse : and you my little gnome should go back to your burrow and let your betters deal with the world

Master TMO (Craigh): *facepalm*

Branwyn: And he owns the Inn you are staying at Lord Goplin

Branwyn: I would watch your words

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ok but about that botany roll?

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): lol

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yeah, he definitely has more manners than you

Noble with horse : Looks at Branwyn

seyfert (Raelynn): she does! and it didn't crash!

seyfert (Raelynn): (ah frick but how do I add it)

Branwyn: You are in Dragon Fen and you should be respectful to my friends

Noble with horse : Lady, I can see that you feel compassion for your companion, I admire that, but sometimes they do get out of hand, like a child that needs to be disiplined

Branwyn: That would be Countess Branadarus to you

Bixi Fizzlebang: Ummm, not unless we've time traveled. Gerry is a full grown adult who is very kind and capable of making his own decisions

Noble with horse : He BLINKS

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Are there douchebags in this world? What kind of insult can I use on this guy?

Noble with horse : Are you certain you want to go about claiming to be the lost Countess?

Raelynn: Are you certain you can risk disbelieving her?

Branwyn: Are you certain you wish to be doubting me?

Branwyn: smiles at Raelynn

Noble with horse : I have heard that the Queen put two pretenders to death, I would be careful

LorieD (Licornah): (grrr...Terraguard has moved our way)

Branwyn: looks at this Lord

Noble with horse : Sir, Gerry says that your man will be out shortly,

Branwyn: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 19) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 20]

Stable boy: Sir, Gerry says that your man will be out shortly,

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ok, but I ROLLED A ONE where is my botany info?

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): eek - yes you can fail anything

GM: I have ruled you have not been here long enough to tell Bizi

GM: Bixi

GM: and smiles at Lisa

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): BUT I ROLLED A 1

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): What is this guy wearing? do I need a roll for that?

Raelynn: Perhaps you could expand on that, sir?

Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Alertness [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 6] [d20 = 20]

Raelynn: [SKILL] Etiquette [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 11]

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): oh ffs

seyfert (Raelynn): (SUCCESS)

Raelynn: [SKILL] Persuasion [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 11]

seyfert (Raelynn): (so much effort to add one skill back)

GM: He is wearing traveling clothes with a large orange diagonal stripe from upper left to lower right

Craigh nips out to look up at the sky, just to make sure it looks the same as it did when they left.

Craigh: [TOWER] [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 17]

N'laea: Just ask him what year it is.

GM: Yes the clear sky here in the courtyard looks like morning, just as when you left, there might be more clouds in the sky it might rain

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I am so tempted to waste a spell on weather forecasting

Branwyn: focuses on his shirt and casts

Branwyn: [INIT] [MOD:Continual Light][Reaction Adj: -1] [d10+1 = 9]

Branwyn: Now everyone can see what a fool you are

Branwyn: You are a beacon of idiocy

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol

Noble with horse : Blinks and looks down

Noble with horse : Looks up

Noble with horse : Looks down

Branwyn: I believe you were just leaving?

Branwyn: Indigo will open the gate for you

Gerry: Lord Goplin, Your man is coming,he is .... getting arranged after his night with the..... BRANWYN

Gerry: I mean Countess

Gerry: Indigo!

Gerry: What ! WHA. HoW

Gerry: I mean

Branwyn: Hello Gerry!

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh thank gods

Gerry: Welcome back Countess

Master TMO (Craigh): (Doctor Scott!)

Bixi Fizzlebang: Gerry, are you ok? Is this guy treating you ok?

Gerry: Who?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Considering talking to his horse

Gerry: OH you are ..... um.... Blissy?

Bixi Fizzlebang: points to Goplin

Craigh: Umm.. the guard spent the night with the Branwyn? Did anyone else hear that, or just me?

Gerry: Yes I am good with the Inn than you

Raelynn: I did, but I don't think he meant that.....probably...?

Bixi Fizzlebang: glances at Craigh

Bixi Fizzlebang: An impersonator?

Gerry: What?

Branwyn: sighs

Gerry: OH you mean the fake Branwyn

Branwyn: He was interrupted and said my name

Licornah: :: looks around at the people and feels confused ::

Gerry: Yes I shoudl take that more seriouly

Raelynn: Wait there is a fake Branwyn? Another one?

Gerry: You could be another false Countess

Bixi Fizzlebang: What is happening here?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Would the fake Branwyn have all of us with her?

Raelynn: Um, a fake Branwyn with a fake Indigo?

Gerry: ALthough none of the others knew to show up with a gnome

Raelynn: And a fake Tiberius?

Raelynn: And yeah, the rest of us?

Gerry: Just a moment

Gerry: Lord Goplin, here is your guard

Gerry: Please be careful reentering the Mist, I do hope that the Govenor can help you if you need anything

Gerry: Look for Sundown if you suffer any ill effects

Gerry: Please Countess come inside

Raelynn: Err, I thought he did accounting?

Branwyn: Thank you

Gerry: Bows to the Lord

Gerry: waits for him to be gone

Gerry: Is it really you Countess?

Branwyn: Of course it is!

Branwyn: You have seen me. Who else could I be?

Gerry: As Lord Goplin said there have been others who tried

Gerry: They looked like you

LorieD (Licornah): (She's a mimic!)

Raelynn: Did they know not to ask for honey?

Gerry: they just did not have the right stories

Gerry: grins at Rae

Raelynn: smiles back

Gerry: Lord Ilero will be releived to have you home

Branwyn: How ... how long have we been gone?

Gerry: I am certain that Jilly will too

Gerry: Oh

Branwyn: To us we have been gone but a few days

Gerry: what day is it?

Gerry: It is the 27th

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Not as bad as I thought, but man, those kids are going to be traumatized

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): 6 years???

Story: Traveling the Planes - Time Distortion

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Should have skipped the feast lol

Craigh: Huh. I wonder if I've outlived any of my enemies?

Raelynn: You had enemies?

Branwyn: 6 years!!!

Bixi Fizzlebang: How many enemies did you have?

seyfert (Raelynn): (elves shrug, don't know what the big deal is)

Branwyn: Tiberius! The children! We have to get home right away

Branwyn: Now!!

Gerry: Well I think they are ok

Branwyn: They must think we are dead!

Gerry: Jilly has been handling things quite well

Gerry: actually Jilly insisted you were not

Gerry: but she was

Branwyn: They are MY children!

Gerry: restless

Gerry: Yes Countess

Craigh gives Bixi a 'later' gesture.

Branwyn: I don't want Jilly handling things

Gerry: If there is anything I can do

Raelynn: Um, maybe spread the word the real Countess is back?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is Branwyn ever home long enough to handle anything related to her children? Asking for a friend...

Branwyn: I have to go. You all can stay for a while but I need to go home

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): yes - lol she has stayed home while the group has gone places

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): she was home with them for a whole story arc

Raelynn: Um, I don't if you need anything, but we can go for... moral support?

GM: Mist Sickness The first time characters enter The Mist they are subject to a Health check to determine how long they will suffer from increased effect of The Mist closing down on them. Failure of this check means the character is significantly incapacitated {one half Health and one half Stamina} for up to two weeks. Success limits this effect to only one to two days. Priests who fail their check loose the ability to cast all spells for one to two days and then all spells are cast as being one level higher {1st levels spells count at 2nd level spells} for the duration of Mist Sickness. Healing spells of any type are not available to a Priest while under any type of Mist Sickness. Those that have failed their checks cannot heal normally for one to two days as they adjust to their new restrictions. After characters have gone past the first days of entering The Mist they can heal normally or with magic. Characters that are familiar with The Mist for a substantial amount of time still need to make a Health check when returning but suffer a greatly reduced amount of Mist Sickness if they fail their check.

Bixi Fizzlebang: As long as Gerry is ok, and that jerk outside isn't giving him trouble, I'm happy to go back with you

GM: Everyone can make their checks

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): yes she knows she will be sick

Branwyn: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 12]

Bixi Fizzlebang: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 8]

Raelynn: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 6] [d20 = 19]

Craigh: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 9) [SUCCESS by 3] [d20 = 6]

Indigo: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 11]

N'laea: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 20]

seyfert (Raelynn): (ouch for both)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ouch, Carissa

GM: Lorie

Raelynn: barely cagtches N'laea before she passes out and nearly passes out herself

Bixi Fizzlebang: Gerry, you're ok here?

seyfert (Raelynn): (apparently the elves shouldn't have returned, lol)

Gerry: Certainly

Gerry: and I think it will only get better from here now that Branwyn is really back

Bixi Fizzlebang: Ok then, we'll try to visit soon! Thank you!

Licornah: [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 11) [SUCCESS by 9] [d20 = 2]

Bixi Fizzlebang: follows the others into the mist

LorieD (Licornah): (sorrrryyy... wrong die)

Licornah: [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 11) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 7]

GM: So the group goes OUT onto the road

Licornah: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 11) [FAILURE by 8] [d20 = 19]

seyfert (Raelynn): (yup, the elves REALLY didn't want to return)

GM: grins so the Elves are not happy with returning

LorieD (Licornah): (but I'm immune to poison / death spells)

Raelynn: I miss that feast....

GM: yeap sorry Lorie

LorieD (Licornah): (I'm casting Cure Disease on myself then )

LorieD (Licornah): (since it's a given ability)

GM: Cannot cast yet

GM: or use abilties

GM: The Mist does not like Priests

GM: At least it is a time thing

GM: so the group breaks out into the Mist and the elves fall sick

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): was our wagon still there?

GM: Branwyn, Tiberius, and who forge ahead to go home?

GM: No wagon

seyfert (Raelynn): (i dunno if sick elves can, but mine would rather be somewhere comfortable to rest)

LorieD (Licornah): (Ummm... I don't know that I have somewhere to live?)

seyfert (Raelynn): (boarding house until people get set up)

seyfert (Raelynn): (Bixi is there, too)

GM: You stayed at the boarding house before

GM: there you go

seyfert (Raelynn): (and Rae)

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): There are lots of trees in the woods

seyfert (Raelynn): (if you make friends with the elves in the woods, yes, that's an option)

seyfert (Raelynn): (or at least acquaintance)

GM: so Branwyn and Tiberius go rushing over the (new) roadway towards the Manor House

GM: The rest staying back to help the elves make it back at a slower pace?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): yes sure

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Sure, since you are hinting so heavily

Craigh will stay with the elves.

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): since apparently you can't leave a wagon for 6 years and expect to find it again

seyfert (Raelynn): (lol you can rush if you need, either or)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Can we set up a homing pigeon system between Branwyn's and the inn before we leave again?

GM: The Manor House map is up, I put Branwyn and Tiberius on it for now

GM: and here is where is where TMO, Carissa, and Lisa have parts to now roleplay out with the characters that were left behind

seyfert (Raelynn): honing pigeons only work one way...

GM: now that you have this new information

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): That was a serious question btw

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ok but can't we have two sets that each work one way?

Master TMO: I can't find the map

GM: and we can consider the ramifications of how to make that work Lemon

GM: Records -> Images -> Manor House

Master TMO: there we go. I failed to filter for Uncategorized

GM: but to get Ilero or Howard, or Thistle you go to the Characters and chat as from there

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): the icons are huge on this map as opposed to the giant map lol

GM: Not using a bunch of icons becasue I want to redo this map

Master TMO (Ilero Sauscha): everything shrank while you were away

seyfert (Thistle): (poor thing has no character sheet filled out)

seyfert (Thistle): they're the size of a staircase.....

Jilly : (Hearing the noise in the main hall as Branwyn and Tiberius come rushing in) WHO is making that racket! DAL and DE you better not be back so soon!

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): The elf food packs on the pounds

Indigo: DEMI! DAHLIA!

Jilly : Comes out

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): oops

Branwyn: DEMI! DAHLIA!

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It's ok Jilly, we support you

Jilly : Jaw drops

Jilly : Then laughs

Branwyn: Jilly! We're home

Jilly : THISTLE!!!!! You did not tell me it was today!

Branwyn: How are the children?

RUNS to Branwyn and HUGS her

Thistle: No but I TOLD you they'd be back!

Branwyn: Hugs Jilly tight

Branwyn: I'm so sorry

Jilly : Yes Of course they were coming back, I said I would go get them if they did not come home soon

Jilly : You said they were happy, so I

Thistle: But you never told me how....

HUGS Branwyn again

Jilly : So

Jilly : Looking at Thistle

seyfert (Thistle): (Thistle isn't a kid and this is a weird mind switch of trying to play grown up Thistle??)

Thistle: I told you.

seyfert (Thistle): grins

Ilero Sauscha: clears his throat. "Hope it you. Getting tired of tossing fakes into cells or executing t'em."

Thistle: grins

Jilly : Looks back at Branwyn

Jilly : OH NO, Where is Indigo!

Thistle: Illero's been really good at it!

Branwyn: Ilero!

Jilly : Imean the others too but Indigo, .....

Branwyn: I'm so glad to see you! And Thistle

Branwyn: Oh Indigo is back with Craigh and Bixi escorting the elves. They all got sick

Thistle: finally gets up to hug her

Ilero Sauscha nods and smiles, although he tries to suppress it some. "Gots ask a question first."

Branwyn: Where are the children?

Branwyn: looks at Ilero

Jilly : Off chasing after a lost cow

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Jilly and Indigo... sitting in a tree... c-o-o-k-i-n-g

Thistle: Pfft, just show me your palm.

Ilero Sauscha: We bot' has cup of feat'er quills on our desks. How many in each cup?

Branwyn: smiles

Branwyn: Four

Ilero Sauscha: finally relaxes and smiles for real.

Ilero Sauscha finally relaxes and smiles for real.

WAPS Ilero with a spoon

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): None of the fakes guessed 4?

Jilly : You knew it was her

Ilero Sauscha: 'Bout time.

Branwyn: People were really trying to impersonat me?

Jilly : OH yes!

Branwyn: How would that even be possible?

Jilly : The queen put out a reward for your return

Thistle: They sucked at it.

Branwyn: laughs

Ilero Sauscha: Two looked like you, t'ree claimed to be your "messengers".

Jilly : Well that was before Ilero took over

Ilero Sauscha: Hye t'ink we still gots one in t'e dungeon.

Jilly : The first year or so was not too bad

Jilly : She is so grumpy Ilero,

Branwyn: But they wouldn't have known my spells

Ilero Sauscha: Just like old times, Jilly.

Jilly : One of them tried to say they were hit on the head

Thistle: Uh, well they were... after.....

Jilly : Dah is very pretty

Branwyn: Dragon Fen?

Jilly : and rumor has it that the Queen is looking to marry her to one of her sons

seyfert (Thistle): (how long ago did we call that?)

Branwyn: She's just a baby

Jilly : Dem is going to have babies if he is not careful

Ilero Sauscha shrugs. "Politics. And time passed."

Jilly : Shur needs to keep an eye on him

Jilly : SIX YEARS

Thistle: Oh let him have his fun.

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, just what she wants to hear. "Welcome back, your kids are doing the deed and not using contraception."

Jilly : HOW could you be gone for six years!

Branwyn: It was the Elflands! They have no sense of time whatsoever

Ilero Sauscha nods towards Jilly. "His goot question."

Thistle: She went with ELVES, Jilly. What did you expect? I told you!

Branwyn: I'm never going back there

Jilly : Did you have a grand adventure?

Branwyn: We were only there a few days and we come back to ... this!

Jilly : So you did not even have an adventure?

Jilly : Is that why Indigo needs to help the Elves?

Branwyn: I'll let Indigo tell you all the gory details. We were in a giant fortress basement full of bugbears and giants

Branwyn: We brought back much treasure though

Thistle: Wait, I thought you said Elfland?

Jilly : A giant fortress sounds complicated,

Branwyn: Yes apparently everyone lives in elfland except humans

Branwyn: Orc, ogres, dwarves,

Jilly : Bugbears? was Billy there?

Branwyn: I wish! None to speak with

Thistle: Seriously?? Ugh, I'm never going to visit an elven city at this rate!

Jilly : I suppose not

Jilly : I did not think Elves had cities, Shi always talks about treetops

Thistle: She says there's a market on the ground for visitors but she still won't take me!

Jilly : How long do you think Indigo will take ?

Branwyn: We returned the cloak and the goddess' avatar thought we stole it and returned it because ... I have no idea. Then they gave us a quest in the giant stronghold

Jilly : You had to stay in case I had to go rescue them

Thistle: Hmph.

Branwyn: As long as it takes to drag three Mist sick elves down the road?

Jilly : We should get dinner ready

Ilero Sauscha rolls his eyes, looking as if he's heard that statement all too often.

Master TMO (Ilero Sauscha): (Jilly's rescue, not dinner)

Jilly : The Queen is very happy with Lord Ilero

Jilly : nods at Branwyn

Thistle: But he hates being away from his tower all the time.

Branwyn: Of course she is. She always like Ilero

Branwyn: I am so sorry Ilero

Ilero Sauscha: Hye *very* glad you back.

Jilly : OH wait till Snee tells you about the Silver mine

Branwyn: Has Nevin driven you insane with all the morning meetings?

Ilero Sauscha: Your t'rone not very comfortable.

Nevin Ognorn: coughs

Branwyn: chuckles

Ilero Sauscha: Hye just ignore him when too much. Drive him crazy.

Nevin Ognorn: You wear it well Lord Ilero

Branwyn: Hello Nevin. It is good to see you

Ilero Sauscha shrugs nonchalantly and nods in thanks.

Nevin Ognorn: Thistle you need to go gather the children please

Nevin Ognorn: I am certain that De and Dah will be back soon

Branwyn: Yes please!

Nevin Ognorn: and our four are anxious for your lessons

Thistle: Wait why is it my job still? Isn't that what Jilly is for?

Nevin Ognorn: They are insisting that Aunty Thistle teach them again about the lines

Branwyn: Four?

Ilero Sauscha: T'e curse of competence, T'istle.

Thistle: Insisting because you insist...

Thistle: sticks her tongue out at Ilero and goes to get them

Jilly : They are a handful but I think that Kelly is becoming a decent cook

Nevin Ognorn: I wish they could use that energy for writing and not just that hand waving

Jilly : Go upstairs, your rooms are just as you left them

Jilly : I will send for you for dinner

Jilly : and we will all celebrate

Ilero Sauscha: Hye send patrol out to get t'e elves.

Jilly : I do hope they are home in time

Branwyn: But ...

Jilly : Jilly looks at Branwyn

Branwyn: I want to be here when the children come back

Jilly : It will be a wonderful surprise for them

Jilly : They know to be back for dinner

Branwyn: Will it? What if they are angry?

Jilly : and Ancien will watch over them

Jilly : Laughs

Jilly : They are going to be

Jilly : But they will be happy too

Branwyn: All right. We can go change and we'll be back done.

Branwyn: Thank you Jilly

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): down

GM: warm smiles

GM: and so that brings us to a bit of OOC

Ilero Sauscha steps out to find a guard and have him send a wagon to the Inn and pick up a band of sick elves with a halfling escort, plus miscellaneous others.

GM: Birthdays: Demi was born 347, Dahlia on 346 Asamo on 347

GM: Thistle was born 334

GM: Jilly was 328

seyfert (Thistle): (333)

GM: Ilero is 314

GM: Branwyn is 320

GM: Indigo is 328

GM: Johan is 308

GM: Shur is 326

GM: So that everyone knows how old people are now

GM: Those that were gone to the Elflands did not age during the time gone

Master TMO (Ilero Sauscha): currently 357, right?

GM: yes

GM: so Branwyn is 31 not 37 for example

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): A couple more trips to elfland and we will have a Situation

GM: But Ilero is 43

Bixi Fizzlebang: (LINK)

Master TMO (Ilero Sauscha): and the grey is spreading. still mostly black, but streaked.

GM: so questions ?

GM: Everyone will be at the dinner

GM: all of the Estate will want to celebrate but will keep it to the family

GM: the people on teh Characters page

GM: and Jilly and Nevin

GM: any questions?

GM: Things to sort out?

GM: Lisa you can play both kids

GM: Or someone can do that for you

Master TMO: feek free to hand off if you don't want to talk to yourself. ;)

seyfert: or they's so happy she's home they're speechless

Master TMO: none of the kids have character records

MadamePsychosis: does anyone want to play them?

GM: When you look at the Character Selection page you can see everyone who is the family on the Estate

Master TMO: Nope

MadamePsychosis: lol

seyfert: oh just appe

Master TMO: I see Craigh, Ilero, Master TMO, Howard, Kenna, Nightshade, Shur, and Sneeza

seyfert: *eared

GM: I released the characters TMO

seyfert: I see Dahlia

GM: sorry was using them earlier

Master TMO: the kids have appeared now

GM: there are 10 there, including the icons/sheets for the Players

GM: 30

seyfert: hold on snippin....

GM: Lemon you get to play Asamo Ilero's daughter

GM: Lorie you can play Demitrius, Branwyn's son

GM: Carissa can play Dahlia Branwyn's daughter

seyfert: (no I'm good, I have character :P)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ummm, what

GM: and then next session we can move things to other players on a permanent basis

LorieD (Licornah): (and where do we get the back story on these characters? Otherwise, he's listening to Primus and ignoring the world)

seyfert: actually wait no maybe... how old is she again?

Master TMO: Lemon: tends to be quiet and observant, but insightful and stubborn. ;)

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Look, I found the sword, I accept that responsibility, but I did NOT find Ilero's daughter

GM: almost no backstory Lorie

GM: Dahlia is 10 , Demi and Asamo are 9

GM: sorry 11 and 10

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Look if they were 3-5, I'd be good, I'm an expert on 3-5 year olds these days. 9... less so

LorieD (Licornah): (9 is easy, given them legos and Plants versus Zombies)

GM: Jilly has younger ones but not bringing them into this yet

GM: Lisa has Branwyn, Indigo, Howard and Johan to play

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): If she's like me at 9, she barely talks to anyone and just can't wait to leave the table so she can get back to reading.

GM: That sounds like Dahlia, grins

Master TMO: that's actually not a horrible take on her.

GM: she is an inate mage

GM: has been using cantrip for years now

Master TMO: just add awkward questions that she won't take easy answers for

GM: We have tonight, and next week to do the transistion from Cloak Check, through Home Stories, and into the next story arc

LorieD (Demitrius Branadarus): (Our answer this week for a lot of questions was the Big Bang theory, I recommend you try that LOL )

GM: so lots of IC and OOC

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ok ok ok

LorieD (Demitrius Branadarus): (So, other than lurching, my character has nothing going on this evening?)

GM: Correct, the three elves are out of it for tonight's dinner

GM: Shi can be there

GM: but beyond that no elves

seyfert: (ouch)

LorieD (Demitrius Branadarus): (So, I'm not necessary? You could have mentioned that...)

seyfert: (And Rae was going to comment on wrinkles tonight, oh well)

GM: chuckles, I had no clue that would happen until all the Elves failed their rolls

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Wait, she doesn't have her dad's... accent, does she? Because I refuse.

MadamePsychosis: lol

Master TMO: she does not, Lemon

LorieD: (... seriously? You knew... )

seyfert: but she could....

GM: HAH

Master TMO: you have Demetrius Lorie

LorieD: (how old? what do I know other than a name and he's a son...)

MadamePsychosis: who is Tiberius' son

LorieD: (how old... how was he 6 years ago?)

GM: He loves to rough house and is looking forward to being an adventurer

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Yeah, you basically TOLD us to stay back so...

GM: 3

seyfert: I think switching between three may be hard for my laptop so someone else can do Dah

GM: actually closer to 4, he is 9 now

LorieD: he's 3? he was negative 3 6 years ago?

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): lol, that would be a good trick

LorieD: No thanks...

GM: It will work out

GM: just gives the characters a bit of a different voice then what I do

GM: and ready when everyone is

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Can you just give us a little warning next time you want to... strongarm... characters on to us?

MadamePsychosis: it's not that big a deal they're kids after an initial conversation they should go to the kids table most likely

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): If they were 3 and 4, they will barely remember anything anyway

GM: I promise the next time you jump half a dozen years into the future I will give you a chance at different roleplay :)

seyfert: ...how long didja plan to keep us in Hell??

GM: Grins, I think that this will inspire Branwyn to research more into time dialation

seyfert: lol

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): lol, just some warning is fine. Like the day before. "Might need y'all to step up and be some NPCs, just fyi"

LorieD: (BOB's alternate motto, no good deed goes unpunished)

MadamePsychosis: oh I can do it

MadamePsychosis: jeeze

GM: It is fine

seyfert: all right all right I'll grab Dah just don't ask her a ton of questions

GM: here we go

GM: Dinner

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Same

Jilly : So I would have made something nicer for all of us if Thistle had told me we were celebrating today

Jilly : But I do have a nice ham

Indigo: All your food is good Jilly!

Jilly : and we brought out some good roasted roots

Thistle: You didn't ask for an EXACT date.

Ilero Sauscha: Hyou not made bad food yet.

Indigo: Roots?

Thistle: But I definitely could have told you if you did. Yep.

Indigo: I take that back

Jilly : Places steaming potatoes and turnips in front of Indigo with butter and spices

Jilly : If you think the food where you were is better I can take this back

Indigo: takes a big whiff

Indigo: No thanks!

Indigo: This is good

Indigo: grins

Jilly : gently taps him with a spoon

Nevin Ognorn: We have the good wine this evening

Nevin Ognorn: for a toast

distributes glasses all around

Thistle: Yessss

Hands one half full to each of the kids

A full one to Thistle

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): How old is Thistle?

seyfert (Thistle): (24 now??????)

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): ancient!

seyfert (Thistle): (definitely not quite acting her age, probably, lol)

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Isn't she still a baby in elf years?

23

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): she is human

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Oh

Branwyn: she just hangs out with elves

seyfert (Thistle): (she was born 333 and it's 357, I can do math!)

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): ooc

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): I can not do math

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): That's why I have TMO

Nevin Ognorn: To the return of the Countess!!!!!

seyfert (Thistle): (yeah having an elf..guardian? who treats her as not quite an adult gives her excuses)

Nevin Ognorn: CHEERS

Branwyn: drinks gratefully

Branwyn: Thank you. It is good to be back

Thistle: quietly, "Wow, he's really happy. I don't think he believed me...."

Tiberius Branadarus: I never thought being home would be so different

Branwyn: Nevin, you will send the necessary letters and announcements?

Nevin Ognorn: I already have

Branwyn: I know. It is so strange

Nevin Ognorn: I asked Kenna to send a message

Ilero Sauscha hoists a toast and drinks to it.

Nevin Ognorn: Jennivive will be most relieved

Branwyn: laughs

Ilero Sauscha: Oh gods. Hope she not visit again.

Nevin Ognorn: The Queen had said if anything happened to Lord Ilero that she would be in charge

Ilero Sauscha: Hye been watching back ever since.

Branwyn: There are many favors I owe her that she likely thought she was not going to be able to collect on

Nevin Ognorn: Since her accident she has not been as nice as before

Branwyn: She would have given Dragon Fen to Jennevive?

Nevin Ognorn: Only as regent

seyfert (Thistle): (define nice)

Branwyn: Accident? What happened?

Nods to Dahlia,

Nevin Ognorn: She will always be your heir

Jilly : I think that someone spilled acid on her

Branwyn: Oh no!

Dahlia Branadarus: shifts uncomfortably

Branwyn: Where is she? I must write to her

Jilly : I think she is with the Queen

Branwyn: At Jistille?

Jilly : They are in the south I last heard

Ilero Sauscha: Small favors.

Jilly : Jistille is very quiet

sighs

Branwyn: Araheal?

Shakes her head

Ilero Sauscha: Was a little while 'go.

Branwyn: Ohhh ... I am so sorry. he was such a good man.

Branwyn: I will go there soon.

Jilly : Demitrius did very nicely at the funeral

Jilly : Howard has been helping there, with your old tower

Branwyn: nods

Branwyn: I am sure he has been very helpful

Jilly : I need to go to the deserts

Nevin Ognorn: Looks at Howard,

Howard Plum: It has been quite distressing

Ilero Sauscha: He done good t'ough.

Howard Plum: A great burden but now that you are home, it shall be better

Tiberius Branadarus: Demi, tell me, how is your bow work coming? did you keep up with your swimming?

Thistle: ffered to help, but he said no.I o

Thistle: *I offered to help, but he said no.

Tiberius Branadarus: Dah, did you ever get that curse worked out to stop the mice from getting into your books?

Dahlia Branadarus: Yes, father, but it's, um, well, I'm still working out the new side effects from that.

Branwyn: Curse? We do not cast curses!

Dahlia Branadarus: rolls eyes, It's a real curse, mother.

Dahlia Branadarus: *not a real

Branwyn: We can look at your book tomorrow

Tiberius Branadarus: Grins

Tiberius Branadarus: I bet she is able to do a lot more now

Branwyn: Hmmm

Dahlia Branadarus: nods

LorieD: (have a good night all)

'LorieD' disconnected

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): Goodnight Lorie

seyfert (Dahlia Branadarus): (night!)

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Goodnight Lorie!

Master TMO (Ilero Sauscha): (night)

Tiberius Branadarus: Was there any problems while we were gone?

Tiberius Branadarus: Remember Indigo when we fought that dragon turtle

Ilero Sauscha chuckles.

Indigo: Seems easier than what we just did

Ilero Sauscha: You miss t'e hurricane.

Tiberius Branadarus: Wow it feels

Tiberius Branadarus: what?

Tiberius Branadarus: What is a hurricane?

Indigo: A new dessert?

Ilero Sauscha: Big twisty storm, ripped up bunch of trees in Valoris.

Ilero Sauscha: Winds strong enough to pick up houses.

Indigo: Wow!

Jilly : We rebuilt all of them

Shi'Nynze: And replanted trees.

Jilly : Someone said they might be one of those ghost houses that Indigo found

Indigo: The house tried to eat someone?

Jilly : Yes

Indigo: Did you kill it?

Smiles at Shi

Jilly : Oh yes Indigo they saw the house picked up and moving in the wind and thought it was one of those that you found

Jilly : I do not think the house tried to eat anyone

Jilly : It did fall on top of a cow

Ilero Sauscha: Almost land on someone, t'ough.

Jilly : OR at least the cow was not there afterwards

Indigo: That's not good. Hope you killed the house

Ilero Sauscha: Hit not survive landing intact.

Jilly : It was in lots of little pieces

Jilly : The lighthouse was in good shape,

Tiberius Branadarus: That sounds sort of fun

Tiberius Branadarus: Well we did have fun didn't we love

Indigo: Yes, but I didn't know at what cost

Branwyn: Yes, but I didn't know at what cost

Branwyn: Look at our little ones. They are so big now!

Tiberius Branadarus: grins, both of them are going to be able to come adventuring soon

Branwyn: Before we left I had Demi sitting on the table in front of me

warm smiles

Branwyn: I could carry him

Branwyn: sighs

Tiberius Branadarus: I can still carry you, can't I Demi

Ilero Sauscha: You still gots teen years to enjoy.

Demitrius Branadarus [Gnomish]: [Translation] I can walk by my self

I can walk by my self

Branwyn: looks at him

seyfert (Shi'Nynze): (on no he's speaking in tongues)

Branwyn: What was that??

Demitrius Branadarus: That was gnomish, I have been practicing

Demitrius Branadarus: A bunch of us have been out in the swamps together

Branwyn: The swamps! With who? Doing what?

Demitrius Branadarus: Exploring, fishing, hanging out

seyfert (Shi'Nynze): (isn't Bixi here to translate?)

Branwyn: All right

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Bixi stayed with the elves

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): the sick ones

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): Not like the elfland ones

Branwyn: I'm going to be worried about you both for a while. I need to catch up

Ilero Sauscha: Hit been helpful having him.

seyfert (Shi'Nynze): (oh whoop forgot)

Ilero Sauscha nods.

Ilero Sauscha: What was Elf Land like?

Branwyn: You have all have done so much for us while we have been gone. Is there anything I can do to repay you all?

Shi'Nynze: It was not for long.

Thistle: Pfft, like you have a good gauge on that.

Indigo: It was pretty until we got to the giant place. It's weird. I thought it would all be elves and butterflies, but it was giants and bugbears and then some elves that froze us instead of talking to us until we did what they wanted

Ilero Sauscha: Sound so civilized.

Indigo: shrugs

Indigo: Other places were probably nicer

Indigo: We didn't see those

Shi'Nynze: It does not sound like you were in Aravaith proper.

Ilero Sauscha: Visited t'e slums of Elf afterlife?

Indigo: Probably not. We landed in a forest and then stumbled into the goddess. She must have been watching and the giant fortress wasn't far from there

Indigo: laughs

Shi'Nynze: nods

Shi'Nynze: I sI'm not sure I'd say that sounds like... slums but...

The layer itself is slightly convex, so that while Olympus and Arvandor both occupy the highest pinnacles of land within their realms, neither citadel can see the other. Away from the settled and claimed areas, the layer grows wild quickly. Many fell beasts and creatures such as giants and cyclops roam the lands to challenge those who adventure within.

Indigo: But when we had the feast at the end a whole lot of elf lords showed up. Not sure where they came from

Indigo: Elves seem to appear when they want to over there

Shi'Nynze: Did you... ..did you meet anyone interesting there?

Ilero Sauscha: Were t'ey friendly or haughty elfs?

Indigo: They were really friendly!

Indigo: Raelynn told most of our story and then others jumped in and all the elves cheered and gave us gifts

Youtargim: It was a grand adventure

Ilero Sauscha: Umm.. gifts from fae lords? Kid stories always say t'ose come wit' prices.

Shi'Nynze: That sounds ...wonderful

Indigo: Well if the goddess Sehanine Moonbow and her avatar are interesting I guess so Shi

Indigo: grins

Indigo: And Lilifane?

Shi'Nynze: small smiles, "Yes, but she is not the only one that'd interest me there."

Indigo: I got a potion I don't think it comes with a price

Indigo: I don't think Solonor was there

Indigo: Or they didn't announce themselves

Youtargim: Namsut says all magic comes with a price

Shi'Nynze: Not that's not... well, I am glad you enjoy a feast, at least. I am certain it was memorable.

Ilero Sauscha: Who Namsut?

Youtargim: My Princess' genie

Thistle: And her lover!

Thistle: You can't forget that part. Rae told me about them!

Indigo: Oh you have been gone from them for longer than you imagined. You should write them soon. They might want you back Youtargim

Youtargim: It is not as scandulous as you might think

Youtargim: Yes

Branwyn: Oh you have been gone from them for longer than you imagined. You should write them soon. They might want you back Youtargim

Thistle: So I should believe you, random stranger I barely know, over Rae who I know *slightly* better?

Youtargim: I will have to find a way

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): I am really bad at changing characters tonight - sorry

Master TMO (Ilero Sauscha): (s'ok

Youtargim: I am not sure how much Rae understands genies

Youtargim: Or how we live in the Land of Fate

Ilero Sauscha shrugs. "Me neit'er."

Youtargim: The Countess has spent as much time with Namsut as Rae did

Youtargim: so perhaps she can help you understand

Youtargim: I am grateful we are here

Thistle: No but she understands love. We talked about it a LOT, um, wow, years ago?

Youtargim: and Jilly's wonderful feast

Youtargim: Love is a wonderful conversation

blinks

Thistle: Eh, I got bored of the romance novels. I like the thrillers now.

Youtargim: I need some sleep I think, I should know more words than just wonderful

Youtargim: Is that three times?

Branwyn: smiles

Ilero Sauscha: Not counting.

Thistle: I started tuning you out....

Youtargim: Have you read of the 1,000 and one nights?

Ilero Sauscha: No. Sounds long.

Youtargim: lots of love and adventure there

Youtargim: clever wit

Youtargim: and daring escapes

Thistle: No, bu I just finshed "THe Polishing" which was super creepy and interesting.

Youtargim: I will be glad for you to tell me about it in the coming days

MadamePsychosis (Branwyn): Carissa - you can poke us about Shi's brother - I was remembering that Shi mostly talked to Kel about him. We would probably need a nudge

Thistle: looks at Branwyn trying to figure out if she has to

Youtargim: I will go rest now

Youtargim: There are many things to think on

Branwyn: Goodnight Youtargim

Youtargim: I will return in the morning Countess

Ilero Sauscha: waits for him to leave. "Who t'at again?"

Thistle: shrugs

Thistle: and turns back to Indigo

Branwyn: He was sent to help us with languages. I was thinking of going on a quest in the desert

Thistle: whispers, "Shi was asking about her family, not which gods you met. Ellidor or Ruavain or any names like that?"

Ilero Sauscha: Looking for what?

Indigo: Ohhhh ... ummm

Indigo: They didn't really introduce themselves

Indigo: I didn't hear those names.

Indigo: I'm sorry

Thistle: still quiet, "It's okay, we just won't tell her. She didn't expect it anyways. I think... maybe? Well at least she didn't go with you."

Indigo: quietly, but if she did she could have asked. We were all at a table and the elves were all at theirs and only the goddess and her people were really talking to us directly

Thistle: shakes head venemently, "THe other elves were going to come back, but shi wouldn't have. That I know this time."

Indigo: Okay ... they did say the elves didn't have to leave

Thistle: Shi didn't believe me when I said they'd be back. She knew you all would be, but she didn't think they would be.

Indigo: Maybe they aren't done here yet

Thistle: ANYWAYS what are you all doing now? Resting?

Indigo: Probably. We have to go visit everybody and tell them we're alive

Thistle: Dragon turtles? Something about a genie?

Indigo: That'll take a while

Thistle: glancing at Shi to make sure she didn't overhearand obviously changing subjects

Indigo: Is Regor still locked up at Jistille?

Ilero Sauscha: How you want handle taking back over? Queen may want to get involved too.

Branwyn: I am not sure that anything needs to happen does it?

Branwyn: We're back and we'll send notice

Thistle: shrugs

GM: Seems like everyone is good?

GM: happy with the IC portion

GM: Sorry not as interactive for you Lemon

GM: That is why Lorie left

GM: we will do some OOC and IC next week too

GM: want to make sure everyone is comfortable with the change over

LemonyLemon (Asamo Sauscha): No problem on my end, I wasn't psyched about playing a stranger lol

GM: Bixi did go up in level as a Priest

GM: so did Craigh

Master TMO: Hey! You calling my daugher strange?

LemonyLemon: And I don't mind hanging around and watching, I have nothing else going on tonight

GM: LOL

LemonyLemon: lol, yes?

LemonyLemon: Look who her dad is?

Demitrius Branadarus: sorry - this catchup stuff has to happen a bit when we return from things as we have a whole estate running in the background

LemonyLemon: She couldn't help it

Master TMO: well, you're absolutely right!

seyfert: housekeeping now?

GM: I am trying to figure out why the XP award for Ilero and Howard did not go through

Advanced Effect [''] -> [to ]

Advanced Effect ['Longsword +1 Flametonge;IFT:type(undead);ATK:3;DMG:3;INIT:3'] -> [to ] [by Longsword +1 Flametonge]

Advanced Effect ['IFT: TYPE(kobold,goblin);ATK: 1'] -> [to ]

Advanced Effect ['IFT:TYPE(gnoll,bugbear,ogre,troll,giant,titan);AC: 4'] -> [to ]

Advanced Effect ['Giant-kin, 2-handed sword;DMGX:2'] -> [to ] [by Giant-kin, 2-handed sword]

Advanced Effect [''] -> [to ]

GM: They did not go up in level

GM: just weird I cannot assign them more XP

Master TMO: we are already Gods

GM: So Lisa can come up with ideas on what Howard and Johan would have done over those years

Master TMO: Ilero doesn't have any of his character sheet over here anyways, nothing to add onto

GM: and I was wrong sorry Lemon, Bixi is 978 XP short of her new level

GM: But yes Craigh is now 8th level thief

LemonyLemon: Again, no problem here. That sounds like work and responsibility lol

GM: chuckles is just the ability to cast more priest spells

GM: however if you did want to explore learning new mage spells think of that over the week

GM: and next week we roll for those for you

Master TMO (Craigh): have we done level advancement in FG before

GM: Yes for TMO

GM: it was automatic

LemonyLemon: I think I just want to explore getting a house and a greenhouse and setting up two different sets of homing pigeons

GM: but something seems to have broken because it did not for Craigh

GM: add saves, HP etc

GM: Good things to add to a wish list on the Players Communication page Lemon

GM: While you are there adding a small summary for tonight as the bonus novella to your trillogy

LemonyLemon: Bixi needs a quiet place to write her ghost stories, and also somewhere to grow helpful plants (maybe? fingers crossed? please?)

seyfert: Yeah Lemon. I'm sick so....

MadamePsychosis: laughs

LemonyLemon: Nooooope, Carissa's quarantined, she's got nothing better to do this weekend

seyfert: Sleep, recover, be too sick to write. Cough couhg

GM: grins

LemonyLemon: Honestly it was fine, and I don't mind when she can't. But she definitely can this weekend lol

seyfert: :P

GM: in any case I will bail out early tonight

seyfert: Wait

GM: so that everyone can think and come up with plans

GM: I am here

seyfert: Still waiting for any clarification on those items

GM: just not being active

LemonyLemon: I just told you my plan

GM: clarification on which items?

LemonyLemon: house, greenhouse, homing pigeons

seyfert: The cloak and the quiver

MadamePsychosis: do you want to live in the towns or out in the woods with the elves?

Craigh: and Rope

GM: grins you need Identify for those Carissa

GM: along with the rope

LemonyLemon: Is there an in between? Like... suburbs?

seyfert: And cannot be done tonight? I had stories in mind to write this weekend to be busy

GM: and if there are any gems that you did not have values for in the party pack, by now Ilero would have suceeded at all of them

Master TMO: We were given them by GODS! We don't need no Identification!

GM: THey told you what they were,

LemonyLemon: Yeah, wtf, gods are like "here's a mystery gift lol good luck"

MadamePsychosis: Bran was going to cast Identify when we got to those kinds of things

GM: please write stories Carissa

seyfert: can't without info :)

LemonyLemon: no gods for awhile please, they are the worst lol

seyfert: so it can wait until next weekend if it's not tonight

GM: Yes you can, the mystery of, the mystical powers that cannot quite be explained

LemonyLemon: We don't know what the mystical powers that cannot be explained are

seyfert: ha not the way I was going with it

seyfert: we'll see but guess that's next weekend

seyfert: for in game

GM: nods

GM: going to line up things to update on the site

LemonyLemon: You could write about how you now have a matching cloak set, so you need to find a partner so you can go jogging in your matching cloaks?

GM: and puzzle through what happened here

seyfert: nooooo don't give Yogurt ideas, Lemon

GM: one of the updates broke something so I need to back out extensions

LemonyLemon: lol

GM: chuckles

GM: He was a bit off with the leap forward too

MadamePsychosis: the safety features are gone

seyfert: he's got some character development to do

GM: Yes thank you Lisa

LemonyLemon: He's got some learning how to NOT run into a bugbear compound to do

GM: I am off tomorrow

MadamePsychosis: ok then will say goodnight

GM: then Sunday through Wednesday in NYC

LemonyLemon: He's going to have to work really hard if he wants Bixi to ever forgive him for that

MadamePsychosis: get better soon Carissa!

seyfert: a lot of character development to do?

seyfert: Wait you get to go to NY before me??????
