BOB Welcome Sharif
Carissa: 6:50 and the timer starts....NOW
BOB Hello Carissa
'Michael' connected
'Lisa' connected
BOB Hello Michael,
BOB Hello Lisa
Michael: Good evening everyone! Can't see anything yet, but I'm here and ready for action :)
BOB No worries Michael
'Lorie' connected
BOB Welcome Lorie
BOB I will have to look again at why the load times are so long
BOB I wonder if it has to do with the Tome of Magic problem
Carissa: 17 minutes, give or take a minute.
BOB Ouch
Carissa: It'd be nice if it said why it was taking so long, but it does not.
Carissa: Anyways hello
BOB This is true too
Carissa: Looks like I have time to make dinner before everyone else syncs...
BOB chuckles
'Shislif' connected
Lisa: Hello! I walked away so no clue long long for it to load
BOB Yeah Lisa
Lisa: how long - hope that is not an indicator of my typing quality tonight
Sharif: howdy!
Lisa: Hi Shislif :)
BOB I wonder how fast he actually loads
Lisa: I was less than 15 minutes just don't know how much less
BOB nice
Lisa: Amazon has a playlist named game night now - annoying! That is what I named my playlist a long time ago so have to fight Alexa to play mine instead of hers
Sharif: taking a while to load
BOB chuckles with Lisa
Michael: Ah! I'm glad I started loading "early" I"m here everyone :)
BOB smiles Michael
Sharif: test test
BOB Yes
BOB Also please test your movement
Lorie: Hola, que tal todo el mundo?
BOB chuckles
Lisa: Hello Lorie! :)
BOB Thank you Lisa
Michael: Hey! :)
BOB and do you see your Reach when you click on your character?
Lorie: Should I have a map or do I need to load one myself?
BOB Michael Talwin should have a larger one like Licornah does
BOB Licornah is on the map
Lorie: Let me load it
Talwin: One sec.
Talwin: sorry
Sharif: Taking forever not sure if you guys can see these!
Lorie: Sorry, I see the up arrow for my direction, but not sure if I see reach
BOB Yes we can Sharif
Lorie: We see you... :: waves ::
BOB The Arrow is your facing
Michael (Talwin): Ah! Here's the map. It popped open just now. One sec
Michael (Talwin): Oh, I like that bob. Automatic Foot Movement
BOB If you hold Shift and the mouse wheel you can change your facing
Michael (Talwin): I might forget that one, but that is very nice as well. I'll try and remember. :)
BOB and you can see that larger shaded area to show your reach
BOB when you click on Talwin correct Michael?
BOB Does anyone else see that?
Michael (Talwin): Correct. A gray grid pops up. I'm assuming that is my reach right?
BOB yes
Michael (Talwin): I like that too. Take some guessing out of it :)
Lisa: I see a green box around Indigo but not Howard
'TMO' connected
Lisa: it's the gray box?
Michael (Talwin): I just hover my mouse over Talwin and the grid pops up. Try that maybe? Not sure how other characters might be
Michael (Talwin): Yep :)
BOB The green box is because Indigo's token is smaller than the square
Michael (Talwin): (Talwin is chonky) :)
Lisa: the gray box is the same size for Howard and Indigo
Sharif: Hey I'm here yay!
Michael (Talwin): Hey! Great to see you
BOB Hello TMO when you get in
Sharif: hi everybody :)
Lisa: Hi! I said hello to you by mistake like 15 minutes ago :D Hello again for real
Lorie: Hi TMO at some point :)
Lisa: but yes Indigo's reach is much smaller than Talwin's. That makes sense :)
BOB Yes on the Combat Tracker and the Stats tab will show the Size and Reach numbers
Sharif: Haha no worries, yea silly thing takes forever to load for whatever reason
Carissa: Got food and brought in some plants. Hi all who've since sync'd!
'Lemon' connected
Carissa: So noticed last time all the extra info on Party Sheet and need to ask: Are Talwin, Zayden, and Youtargim wearing armor? Their AC are all at 10.
BOB No to Youtargim and Zayden wearing armor
Sharif: not even some leather armor?
Thistle: And just noticed Thistle's is off again...
BOB How so Carissa?
BOB Lemon is loading
Thistle: It's giving her the DEX defense but nothing else. So guessing it isn't reading her armor into it.
Sharif: can i get a link to the previusly on?
BOB and Sharif, you could have leather armor
Sharif: please :)
Thistle: I did the unequip and re-equip like last time when it did this, but it didn't update.
Lisa: we were supposed to get Zayden leather aromor when we were home
BOB Checking on both Thistle and Zayden for that
Sharif: Yea I seem to recall something along those lines
Thistle: And Michael will need to check his unless his AC really is supposed to be 10 which seems wrong
Sharif: some cool looking leather of course
Sharif: I have a reputation over here
BOB Zayden is updated correctly
BOB Thistle now
Michael (Talwin): This is kind of embarassing to admit, but i'm not sure how to figure out how the armor is contributing to AC. No rush, just taking some time
BOB I can after Thistle
Michael (Talwin): Again no rush, just not the best at this program still :(
Lisa: think it does it automatically once you say you are wearing it on your sheet
Licornah: added to Discord for you
Michael (Talwin): TY. I will check
Carissa: It should do it, yes, but it's been a bit fincky. So if Bob gets it working right today just remember what number it should be and check it again every now and then.
Licornah: there are adjustments I didn't include for class; strength, etc.
Lisa: if you change it manually over the wearing it you could be making the numbers wrong
Licornah: If it makes you feel better, I've been struggling since I discovered both my PHB and DMG were ruined in a water leak
Licornah: thankfully there is an AD&D 2e Wiki :D
Lisa: I had asked Bob about it because we are going boating soon. Indigo will be switching between his chain and leather and Bob said I didn't have to do anything other than wear what I want
Michael (Talwin): I'm currently wearing "Ringmail" is that the same thing in this game?
Carissa: Just equip the right one, yeah. Again has been mostly working, but I've caught it messing up one or twice :)
Lisa: I would guess so
Michael (Talwin): Ah, it says "carried" but isn't "Equipped" like the rest of my stuff.
Thistle: Advanced Effect ['SAVE:4,fire'] removed [from Thistle] [by Ring of Fire Resistance]
Thistle: Advanced Effect ['DDR: 2 fire'] removed [from Thistle] [by Ring of Fire Resistance]
Lisa: yeah need to put it on :)
Carissa: lol sometimes useful to do
BOB Ok, so now Thistle is fixed
Michael (Talwin): OK perfect. It says equipped. Now where do I verify the AC is appropriate?
Carissa: ty
Michael (Talwin): I'm learning! :)
Carissa: Bottom right of character sheet or on party sheety
Michael (Talwin): uploading pic to discord
Indigo: bottom left of my main tab
Carissa: Left...I meant left
Michael (Talwin): Oh thank god
Lisa: the other right
Michael (Talwin): I was so confused
BOB I am checking Michael
Michael (Talwin): :)
Thistle: lol sorrry
Michael (Talwin): So 7
Michael (Talwin): is mine
Michael (Talwin): after equipping
Lisa: should be better than that
Michael (Talwin): (No worries, we'll figure it out. So I went from 10 to 7 after equipping, so we got that down)
Lisa: getting better but thinking it should be more like 5
BOB Ring Mail is an AC 7 and he is correctly at AC7
Michael (Talwin): Er, I think bob is probably doing something because it's flipping a bit. I'll just chill for a moment :)
Michael (Talwin): Ah ok
Lisa: oh really - good to know
Thistle: He is not as dexterious as some of the others
Carissa: dang it
Michael (Talwin): There is something about ringmail and swimming that TMO and I and Bob have looooong discussed, and then I forget and bob has to remind me. THat's about where I drop off :)_
Lisa: Indigo gets halfling dex bonus things
Michael (Talwin): I think I can ...float? but not swim?
Michael (Talwin): something
Lisa: oh yeah - the I want to swim in my armor thing :D
Carissa: That's my guess. I know Nae and Thistle do, too. And Rae has special armor.
Carissa: Nah, be like Brer and just hold your breath and walk on the bottom!
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Lisa: Did TMO ever get in?
Talwin: But that's the price we pay for being Tanks :)
Michael (Talwin): I didn't see. He might have just not chatted yet though
Lisa: Hokay t'anks Talwin
Michael (Talwin): And thank you bob for helping with that.
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Lisa: That's what I thought of when I saw you typed tanks
Michael (Talwin): Perfect Enunciation too
Carissa: lol
BOB Ok, so Talwin is at AC 7 and is good
Michael (Talwin): Thanks bob :)
BOB Yes to Ring mail being metal armor and so no swimming and you sink when you go into the water
Carissa: Good reminder. Rae maybe switching once on the boat as well...
Lisa: oh no! think there was a loophole (ring hole?) in that armor swimming thing
Talwin: Ah ha! We discuss this every single time!!!!!
Michael (Talwin): I knew it!
BOB Is Lemon here yet?
Lisa: Proficient swimmers wearing studded leather, ring mail or hide can swim with a successful strength check.
BOB Zayden, Talwin, and Thistle are all correct with AC
Lisa: from tthe swimming webpage
BOB nice catch Lisa
Talwin: WHAT? I BROUGHTR THAT UP LAST TIME!@!!!!
Michael (Talwin): lol
Carissa: chain mail is...?
Lisa: I know. we killed it quickly this time
BOB Michael uncheck from Talwin to be easy
Michael (Talwin): LOL :)
Lisa: but you need to roll STR checks
Carissa: wait no doesn't matter for her she can't swim because I was an idiot last time she trained
Michael (Talwin): Sorry bob. Got really excited haha. Letting him go now
Carissa: lol Talwin will be fine
Michael: test
Michael: Oh good. I "Released" him
Carissa: yes
BOB and so we should be good to go with everyone here
Michael: Poor chat editors post game probably hate my guys. Whomever is doing it this year, I owe you a xmas gift card of some sort
TMO: TMO in da hous
Michael: Hey TMO :)
Lisa: Hi TMO :)
Sharif: Hi TMO :)
Carissa: Hi TMO!
BOB smiles Michael, I am doing the Automatic
BOB then anyone can go back to update afterwards, Lisa is busy writing Story chats now
Michael: :D
BOB so to make sure all are on the same page you read that Summary and Story Chat
BOB you are north along the Dry Road
BOB Just outside of the Medipop Estates
BOB It is approaching evening
BOB you are looking for a place to stay the night
Sharif: cool
BOB and for Lorie, Lemon, Sharif, the group has learned over the years of traveling like this that A - camping is not always more dangerous than finding a barn or inn
Carissa: and something wicked this way comes
Michael: It's true
Sharif: cool
BOB and B - conversations IN Character do a lot to help amelieroate encounter severity
BOB I think I spelled that correctly... WOW
TMO: looks right to me
Lorie: close enough
Sharif: sounds good!
Sharif: we doing in character stuff yet?
TMO: whoops, no, sorry. ameliorate
BOB meaning if you are having good conversations In character, developing back stories, building up good roleplaying that makes things go smoother
TMO: very very close
Lisa (Indigo): unless you don't want to talk and just take your chances with the dice roll
Michael: Close enough. Have you seen me type?
Sharif: cool good to know
BOB and so as I go get a drink then you can start of with the discussions on where what to do with your night on the road
BOB brb
Michael: In short, if you want stabby stabby, less talky talky
TMO: and vice-versa
Michael: Right
Lisa (Indigo): michael already rolled an encounter so he is on first watch :P
Carissa: and once Lemon gets here we can tell her and Shislif how watches work
Carissa: lol
Michael: Oh shoot. That is right
Indigo: not getting out of that
Carissa: We didn't use spells today so technically anyone can be any watch... depending what happens first watch
Michael: Eh, I'm fine with it. Today's been a nice easy day with no assholes, so i'm not exactly exhuasted right this moment
Michael: So rare
Lisa: no one cast today so casters can go when ever for tonight
Lorie: Lemon isn't here yet
Carissa: Although Bob did seem to hint you can maybe literally talk your way out of whatever you encountered...
Michael: Yes...and very much no :)
Sharif: hmmm nice
Lisa: sorry
Michael: Can't talk to centipedes
Lisa: lol
Carissa: No no to others
Lisa: you can ... but will likely get you paralyzed
Carissa: Like if Indigo had to pick a last meal, what would it be? Why the hell doesn't Yout wear armor? Did Zayden ever learn the kazoo (and do those exist in this area)??
Michael: And irritate the absoulte shit out of you when you fail the one damn roll you need to succeed
Carissa: Be the ice breaker, Talwin! You must have some burning questions on your mind.
Sharif: haha
Michael: Let me get into character. Easy does it :)
Sharif: ok i'll get into character as well
Carissa: (guess that mean Zayden and/or whoever Talwin talks to is on first? :) )
Michael (Talwin): Alright. We'll just chill for bob and figure out what he says my roll is first
Lemon: holy crap finally
Carissa: Hi Lemon!
Michael (Talwin): Hey Lemon!
BOB back
Lisa: Hi Lemon!
BOB and very glad Lemon is in
Sharif: Welcome back!
Lisa: You rolled a 1 Michael. You better be the king of convo to avoid something coming at you
Carissa: So quick watch summary: we have three watches through the night. To regain spells, the spell caster must have uninterrupted sleep meaning they can only do first or third watch.
BOB also for your thoughts during the conversations, Zayden, Licornah and Howard all have deeper back stories that the rest of the group does not know
Michael (Talwin): I'm not that good Lisa!
BOB Indigo knows most of Howard's except the last 6 years
Michael (Talwin): :D
Carissa: What Lemon missed was that in less dangerous areas, talking can count as an encounter. In dangerous areas, that's how you get something to attack you.
Michael (Talwin): It was a 1!
Lisa: Howard says to keep out of his back story
Carissa: lol
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Michael (Talwin): Let me boot up some Vox Machina. Might find something in there to frantically discuss
TMO: lol
Carissa: You got this, Talwin. Just shoot random questions at anyone.
Carissa: And whoever that person is will be on first watch with you. No pressure!
Lemon: I can move boxes!
BOB First before that encounter you are deciding where to sleep the night, are you camping on the side of the road? or looking for a farm?
Lemon: Things are looking up!
Sharif: where we sleeping yall?
TMO: checks AirDnD
Lisa: side of the road like the pheasants that we are?
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Michael (Talwin): Yes
Lisa: lol TMO
Michael (Talwin): We poor unfortunate souls
Raelynn: Wherever is less dirty. Do you think a farm would have an extra bed?
TMO: that may be one of my best puns
Lorie: What does the side of the road look like? Trees / Brush or open field?
Carissa (Raelynn): (don't choke them)
Michael (Talwin): We lie where we drop
Sharif: Well what's around us?
Michael (Talwin): It was top 2 for me TMO. You soundly beat bob with that one
Lorie: (I'm not selling my voice here buddy)
Indigo: Have you ever been to a small farm Raelynn?
Image: Campsite Dry Road
Michael (Talwin): Oh my god! The landscape has alien "Question Marks!"
Raelynn: I try not to remember...
Indigo: Unless you pay them they won't be giving you their beds and they will be sleeping with us in the barn with the animals
Lorie: I'm not camping with the Riddler either
Lorie: I have standards
Michael (Talwin): Well....which Riddler?
Raelynn: I've met some very nice farmers before, but never with such a big group.
BOB What question marks? sigh Carissa a snip please?
Lisa (Indigo): I don't see ???
Lorie: :: laughs :: They are gone now
Raelynn: I would but I don't see ??? either
Michael (Talwin): They are gone now bob. I think they are placeholders for loading :) I'll snip next time
BOB Ok
Lorie: But I guess where we know there are potential encounters
BOB glad
BOB So you have that map to show what camping will be like
Michael (Talwin): What a well organized campsite behind a barricade....I like it
Sharif: which map?
Lorie: Image: Campsite Dry Road
Lisa (Indigo): who brought the barricade?
BOB I will explain when you reach there,
Carissa (Raelynn): Thistle keeps them in her pockets just in case
Michael (Talwin): Hey don't look a gift fortification in the mouth
Michael (Talwin): :D
BOB either camping tonight, or tomorrow night, I know at least one night this portion of the trip is outdoors
Lisa (Indigo): ok
Michael (Talwin): (Let's camp tonight. NO worries)
Licornah: I can take first watch
Lisa (Indigo): yes
Talwin: I'll join you
Image: Leg One for Searching for Alexandria
Raelynn: So on the road? At least the city will have an inn...
Lisa (Indigo): Indigo will take 2nd and Howard on 3
BOB The Leg One map shows how far you have to travel between the two Estates Penissa is the next large town
BOB 24 miles away
BOB at least
Carissa (Raelynn): Zayden and Bixi should be on one, too
Carissa (Raelynn): (And toss mine wherever if needed, but gives them a chance for RP)
BOB I think 3 per watch is a good number
BOB you have enough
Carissa (Raelynn): ....what are you planning
Michael (Talwin): Yeah, don't think talking is gonna work Lisa :)
BOB grins, to create good roleplaying
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Lisa (Indigo): need to separate talwin and Indigo
Lisa (Indigo): hence my choices
Carissa (Raelynn): Lemon and Shislif, who do you wanna RP with?
Michael (Talwin): I think they were good ones
Carissa (Raelynn): I guess toss Thistle on third as the not actually a fighter but moreso than Howard?
Lemon: I'm fine with whatever, but I'm already on watch whenever Talwin is because I'm also a no-longer-giant giant sword
Lisa: Howard sighs pitifully
Michael (Talwin): Pff
Carissa (Raelynn): yes but sword can only talk to him and not others :)
BOB Did you like the small sleeping bags for the gnome and halfling?
Michael (Talwin): And I can choose not to answer if it makes it easier for you :)
Lisa: nice
Michael (Talwin): I LOVE IT BOB
Michael (Talwin): Was going to comment on the sizes :)
Lemon: So small that I can't even see mine behind my face
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Lisa: oh and for watches and encounters in case you don't know - you can fight what comes and not bother the sleepers or you can yell or kick the sleepers awake
Lisa: casters are not in desperate need for sleep tonight but is an issue sometimes
Carissa (Raelynn): But if the sleepers are spellcasters who need to recover their spells, we try not to wake them if we can help it
Michael (Talwin): Unless we are really hurting, maybe don't ruin the spellcasters sleep though. What is it lisa? Two full rests for their spells?
Shislif (Zayden): cool
Lisa: yes but no spells cast so they don't need to make anything up tonight
Michael (Talwin): Ah. Then just saving them unless needed
Lisa: casters will usually say whether they can be woken before they go to sleep
Michael (Talwin): Alright. Bob. Your up bud :) What does my number 1 mean for me tonight. I can start praying, fighting, talking, what. Set the scene and I'll star tiwth Obs :)
Shislif (Zayden): cool
Carissa (Raelynn): So far we have: (first) Talwin, Licornah, ??? (second) Indigo, Rae, ???, and (third) Thistle, Howard, and ???
Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 15]
Carissa (Raelynn): (or can move Rae to first just in case....)
Lisa: Talwin starts by not seeing anything :)
Carissa (Raelynn): But y'all need ot pick. I ain't always gonna pick for you.
Michael (Talwin): LOLOLOL
Michael (Talwin): A dilemma
Licornah: [SKILL] Observation (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 17]
Michael (Talwin): Well, at least we hit hard
Lisa: alos put yourselves where you want to be - yes? so the encounter if it comes doesn't come to the middle of camp
Lemon: Maybe I'll take 3rd. I'm interested in Thistle, and if Howard isn't interested in talking, at least someone will be there to talk to
Shislif (Zayden): nice campsite!
Carissa (Raelynn): lol Howard will talk
Michael (Talwin): Hm. Good Point. I'll take a spot near the wagon. The barricases might help a bit on that front
Shislif (Zayden): I'll take whatever
Carissa (Raelynn): (toss Rae on first and Zayden on second then since Indigo can talk to anyone easily)
Carissa (Raelynn): (which leaves Yout also on second)
Shislif (Zayden): cool
Lisa: Bixi on 3 then?
Lemon: I'll take whatever watch Yout ISN'T on
Michael (Talwin): Third Base
Carissa (Raelynn): (yep)
Michael (Talwin): (After each watch, we can just announce who's on the for the next)
Lisa: it's a cold windy night - I like the windy effects on the map
Raelynn: Licornah, have you camped before?
BOB and Carissa smoothly avoids Youtargim and Rae being on the same watch
Lisa: lol
Michael (Talwin): lol
Carissa (Raelynn): (I'm very tempted to toss him on third so he actually does as she asked :P)
Zayden: So I'm 2nd shift is that correct?
Carissa (Raelynn): (because I really want that convo to happen)
BOB Rae Licornah and Talwin GO
Carissa (Raelynn): (Howard, why is Rae sweet on you? Oh, I just nearly died A LOT and now she's afraid i'll die again)
Talwin: Patrolls back and forth every ten minutes or so, but pauses to chat as the watch progresses
Lorie (Licornah): (Sorry, need a moment ... KID here)
Raelynn: And Talwin, is that sword still talking to you?
Talwin: Talking to compatriots
BOB Nice Lorie
Talwin: Grips handle tightly. The leather guard squeeks a bit
Talwin: Indeed he does
Talwin: Smiles
Carissa (Raelynn): okay so she doesn't have that prof but I want to see if it let's me roll what she doesn't have
Talwin: We have fine conversations
Licornah: [SKILL] Observation (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 20]
Raelynn: [SKILL] Observation [d20 = 13]
Raelynn: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 14]
Lorie (Licornah): (Patrols and ponders animals)
Licornah: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 18) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 14]
Raelynn: Is it still... evil?
Raelynn: Because I'm still prettttty sure it's evil.
Talwin: Raises eyebrows
Licornah: (Okay, she says Hi Uncle BOB)
Talwin: Evil?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I AM NOT EVIL
BOB Michael you should have a box there prompting you to roll
BOB and Hello KID
Raelynn: Um, yes. Didn't you say it wanted to slaughter everything to do... something or another?
Talwin: Mutters "Calm down, calm down"
Michael (Talwin): Oh sorry bob. Id on't see it. One momoent?
Raelynn: Good people don't say that.
Lorie (Licornah): (Yes, after all these years, she still calls you Uncle BOB)
BOB grins
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: If a group of giants attempted genocide against everyone YOU knew, you'd be a little bloodthirsty for them too. Stupid elves.
Raelynn: Er, sword. Or whatever it is. He is? She?
Raelynn: Are you... muttering to yourself?
Michael (Talwin): Bob I'm super sorry. I can't see the prompt. Last week it just popped up, but it's not now. Is there another way to access? Or a keyboard shortcut?
BOB I will resend for you later but roll observation and wisdom
Licornah: (Continues her patroling wishing it was a bit warmer)
Michael (Talwin): OK. Sorry. I'll snip if you need. Rolling now
Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 7] [d20 = 20]
Michael (Talwin): looking for wis. sorry

-> Raelynn: Look at that pile under the barricade
Michael (Talwin): OK. where the F is wis
Michael (Talwin): Which tab
Lorie (Licornah): Skills
Carissa (Raelynn): character sheet
Carissa (Raelynn): for wisdom
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): main
Michael (Talwin): I don't see wis on that
Michael (Talwin): all my other
Michael (Talwin): but not wis
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): Mine is on the main tab... str, dex, con, int, then wis
Lisa: main tab
Talwin: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 5) [FAILURE by 14] [d20 = 19]
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): ouch
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): I think Talwin's sword is REALLY distracting lol
Michael (Talwin): Holy smokes. Thanks guys. That was painful. And bob, the Manual Dice Entry tab popped up for Wis. It that's similiar to what you were looking for
Raelynn: leans over to Licornah, "Do YOU think that sword is evil?"
BOB Yes
Michael (Talwin): Then no idea what was up with that. Sorry still. Maybe needed to load?
Licornah: :: shrugs thoughtfully :: Swords usually have a mind of their own and sometimes people get trapped, but mostly, yes, I think they are evil
Talwin: Rolls eyes
Raelynn: All swords or just that one?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Idiot elves
Talwin: Bloodthirsty maybe, but not necessarily evil
Raelynn: Er, how can bloodthisty be NOT evil?
Licornah: :: whispers :: that one for sure... I don't think every sword is
Raelynn: Unless you're a leech?
Raelynn: No offense.
BOB Also for Rae and Licornah one thing to ponder "why is there a set of barricades out here along the roadway and what is that pile under them?"
Raelynn: nods in agreement to Licornah
Michael (Talwin): (Apparantely not foe Talwin though, who is a moron and didn't make a single save LOL)
Raelynn: So... um, are there usually barricades already... set up when you camp?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: We know nothing about the sneaky purple one. Perhaps she is evil and deflecting?
BOB also for Talwin he is distracted and at any time they might slip in an Elven idiom etc
Carissa (Raelynn): (if you zoom in it looks like skulls, but ya know, details)
Licornah: Where I come from, the only thing set up is the altars
Licornah: :: points for Talwin :: Are you used to seeing these along this road?
Raelynn: There's.... something piled under them...
Michael (Talwin): "Sneaky purple one?" Guffaws despite himself, choking off the words only after they leave his mouth
Talwin: "Sneaky purple one?" Guffaws despite himself, choking off the words only after they leave his mouth
Raelynn : [Translation] I'm starting to question if HE'S right in the head now.
<font color="#000000">I'm starting to question if HE'S right in the head now.
Licornah : [Translation] He does seem to be quite cozy with the sword as his companion
<font color="#000000">He does seem to be quite cozy with the sword as his companion
Michael (Talwin): Sorry Licornah. I didn't mean anything by it. My sword said something I dind't think I would ever hear
Talwin: "Sneaky purple one?" Guffaws despite himself, choking off the words only after they leave his mouth
Talwin: Sorry Licornah. I didn't mean anything by it. My sword said something I dind't think I would ever hear
Raelynn : [Translation] Yes, maybe too much so. It's hard to tell if he's talking to himself or the sword, although perhaps it's the same?

Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Does your culture not find it rude to speak in a language one does not understand when they are perfectly able to speak in yours?
Talwin: Er...what was that about a barricade?
Talwin: Ignoring Reven for the moment, trying to salvage the situation
Licornah [W Comm]: :: points again :: This thing... is it normal for this are?
Raelynn : [Translation] As long as he doesn't go completely mad. I'm not sure I can cure that. Can you? You're quite skilled at the healing arts.

Talwin: Frown for real.
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Are these elves really necessary? Perhaps we should... send them away.
Raelynn [W Comm]: And the things piled under?
Talwin: No that you say that.....
Talwin: Hesitates. "Stay here for a moment would you? I'll check it out"
Human, drummer: RAT A TAT RAT A TAT TAT

Talwin: "Do you hear that?"
BOB Yes to first watch, the rest of the group is sleeping except for these three
Michael (Talwin): Smack talk me later. Do you hear that....odd noise?
Shislif (Zayden): thx just checking :)

Licornah [W Comm]: :: pauses to listen ::
BOB Talwin spots two humans walking up the road
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): Does a talking sword get any skills? I feel like the sword would roll better than Talwin's first try...
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol)
BOB LOL with Lemon
Talwin: Gestures to Licornah
Talwin: Gestures to Licornah
Talwin: That way. Two humans
Raelynn: Do they look nice?
Licornah [W Comm]: :: turns and tries to look in the distance around the campfire ::
Human, drummer: RAT A TAT RAT A TAT TAT
Talwin: I have no idea. I'll head them off. Be ready for anything though
Raelynn: Are they heading this way? You don't want to get too far.
Talwin: I won't attack unless I have to. But be wary in case they fell me
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: caution friend... they would not be making such noise if they were afraid of our group of brave people and raggedy elves
Raelynn: And maybe... um, I can come with you. You aren't, mmm, always great with words.
Talwin: shakes head to both
Licornah [W Comm]: :: readies her lance ::
Talwin: I"m not leaving the area, just keeping an eye out.
BOB They are about 1 round away now, just over 120 feet from your wagon
Licornah [W Comm]: :: stays in the campsite radius to guard the sleeping ::
TMO: (gotta keep an eye on this guy - he once choked a pheasant)
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): I hope Reven didn't used to be an elf lol.
Talwin: Nods to Licornha
Human, drummer: RAT A TAT RAT A TAT TAT
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol)
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): Did the pheasant at least deserve it?
Talwin: Thanks. We'll see what's going on. We'll run back if you shout

BOB Yeah
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Indigo: lol
Lisa (Indigo): why is Indigo waking up?
Lorie (Licornah): John and Jason Bonham out for a walk
Carissa (Raelynn): (if he made his save doesn't he get to keep sleeping?)
BOB So the drumming wakes everyone up in the camp
Lisa (Indigo): He likes a parade and all but not during sleep time
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol)
Shislif (Zayden): does this manual dice entry mean something?
BOB Yes roll that die
Indigo: What is happening??
Thistle: [CHECK] Constitution (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 11]

BOB and yes you do
Indigo: sits up and looks around
BOB many times you want to, this time, who knows
Thistle: Ah darn. Sorry, Indigo! Some drummer is coming... we're about to head him off.
Talwin: Some dumbass human is walking down the lane and drumming a drum. Two humans. I dind't want to confront them and leave the confines of the camp
Raelynn: Ah darn. Sorry, Indigo! Some drummer is coming... we're about to head him off.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Zayden, why are you playing drums in the middle of the night?
Raelynn: HEY! You two! Stop that!
Talwin: No. Not so far
Talwin: STOP Raelynn
Carissa (Raelynn): (too late)
Farmer, Human: Hello there,
Farmer, Human: You are out late
Raelynn: As are you, good sir. Why are you drumming up a storm?
Talwin: Grunts
Human, drummer: Told you it was a good idea to make noise so we would not surprise anyone
Human, drummer: Never know what someone will do when they are surprised
Talwin: Cocks head
Indigo: Two people? I'm going back to sleep
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Careful, it might be a trick
Human, drummer: We are searching for a good spot to set up camp
Raelynn: Mm, true, but some of our companions are unhappy and you never know what unhappy people do, either. Not that they'll do anything if you're not bad people!
Indigo: puts his cloak over his head to try to stop the noise
Human, drummer: We are with Voldomer's Fabulous Circus
Farmer, Human: Everyone is surprised to see the Circus
Raelynn: A circus! Oh how wonderful! Is it just... you two?
Zayden Sleeps soundly
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: VOLDOMER definitely sounds evil
Farmer, Human: Oh no, we are getting things set up
Talwin: Talwin is clearly at a lost at what the fudge to do with these two idiots
Raelynn: Set up where?
BOB Zayden definately wakes up, he can try to ignore the goings on
Talwin: Examines the surrounding areas carefully, as Raelynn speaks. Watching for signs of trickery
Zayden ignores what's going on
Human, drummer: Yes it is a wonderful Circus, maybe you should join us tomorrow
Licornah [W Comm]: Voldomer's?
Talwin: Mentally "Reven, don't suppose you can sense anything...cause I got nothing other than a desire to strangle a peasant"
Bixi Fizzlebang: sits up and listens to make sure everything is ok
Human, drummer: They are following along behind, we will scout out a campsite to set up in
Raelynn: Where is your destination?
Human, drummer: The Open Road!
Human, drummer: DUM DUM DUM DUM
Raelynn: HEY!
Raelynn: Shhhh!!!
Raelynn: You'll wake everyone!
Michael (Talwin): "This is the Dry Road..."
Raelynn: [SKILL] Persuasion [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 13] [d20 = 3]
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I sense nothing in particular, but if there is a whole group coming up behind them... well... reinforcements...
Talwin: "This is the Dry Road..."
Human, drummer: We want to make sure no one is surprised by us coming
Human, drummer: Cannot be too careful out here in the wild lands
Raelynn: Yes yes, but you need sleep. And my companions need sleep.
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: They may be trying to lull us into a false sense of security
Farmer, Human: Hefts his pitchfork, We need to move along, they have this spot already claimed
Raelynn: And they cannot sleep if you keep drumming. Shouldn't you have made camp by now?
Farmer, Human: Thank you!
Farmer, Human: That was my point two hours ago!
Farmer, Human: points to Raelynn, Listen to the nice lady
Michael (Talwin): On the opposite end of that logic, we've passed several highway trolls that would be on the lookout for loud noises. I won't of course bother you good folk, but there might be more.
Talwin: On the opposite end of that logic, we've passed several highway trolls that would be on the lookout for loud noises. I won't of course bother you good folk, but there might be more.
Raelynn: You could, um, maybe camp here? If you keep drumming, you'll attrach something.
Raelynn: And if you attract something to you, you might to us as well.
Farmer, Human: Yes please
Talwin: (Mentally slaps hand to forehead)
Talwin: (In painful agony that she offered)
Farmer, Human: We can camp over there under the trees, away from your group
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol of course she did)
Human, drummer: I could continue for a while
Michael (Talwin): (We work so well together :) )
Raelynn: Yes I think that'll be okay. Right Talwin?
Raelynn: NO! No drumming!
Human, drummer: to make sure we drive off any remaining animals in the area
Talwin: Grits out. "Delighted"
Raelynn: Talwin will scare them away himself!
Licornah [W Comm]: :: squints :: We want to talk to the animals
Licornah [W Comm]: So no need to scare them away
Zayden: whispers are these guys gonna keep yappin?
Raelynn: Yes! The nice ones Licornah can talk to and the mean ones Talwin will scare away.
Raelynn: OH!
Farmer, Human: Wow, you two are Elves aren't you
Raelynn: I'm Raelynn, by the way. What's your nanes?
Michael (Talwin): "Farmer, Human"
Farmer, Human: I mean I have heard of them, but never thought I would see one
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: This elf has no shame
Michael (Talwin): (PhD)
Farmer, Human: Unlike dwarves, everyone knows they are a myth
Raelynn: Well we aren't too common in this area, but we DO exist.
Licornah [W Comm]: Yes, I am an elf
Farmer, Human: WOW
Raelynn: Oh! I met a dwarf before! Not sure what he's up to lately, though...
Licornah [W Comm]: :: squints again :: A... myth?
Farmer, Human: Say something please?
Talwin: Mentally. "Yes, but neither do we when the situation calls for it."
Licornah [W Comm]: Where do you hail from?
Farmer, Human: No no I mean like an Elf
Talwin: "Wut"
Raelynn: If we do, will you stop that incessant drumming so we can all sleep?
Farmer, Human: I promise I will not drum at all
Raelynn : [Translation] You better keep that promise.
<font color="#000000">You better keep that promise.
Farmer, Human: dreamy smile, that is beautiful
Farmer, Human: What did you say?
Licornah : [Translation] These two are nutters
<font color="#000000">These two are nutters
Raelynn: That you better keep your promise.
Raelynn: smiles
Raelynn: Licornah said similar.
Farmer, Human: Oh promise
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: this is stupid. Perhaps we should see what is over near that barricade. Perhaps a wild animal is stuck there that would make a good dinner. Aren't you hungry, friend? I remember how good food used to be...
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Farmer, Human: smile and shivers
Talwin: Mentally to Reven. "Don't suppose in your wonderful batch of skills you can translate this for me? I despise not knowing what other people are saying."
Raelynn: Well go ahead and make your camp. Will your friends be too far behind? You haven't told us your names yet.
Farmer, Human: We can go camp in the trees over here on the opposite side of the road, just until we need to move along,
Farmer, Human: I am Fredrick, this is Bongo
Licornah [W Comm]: Sounds good ... .pleaseant dreams
Raelynn: Very nice to meet you.
Human, drummer: Tap Tap Tap
Human, drummer: Nice to meet you
Talwin: Eyes the Dummer Sticks, as if fantasizing sticking them....
Talwin: "Nice to meet you too."
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Sorry, friend, I am nothing but a sword right now. If ever you can find a release me, I might have skills I have forgotten and would be glad to lend you any aid I could. You have been loyal and true, and I will always return that.
Raelynn: We'll let our friends know you're here when they take over watch. If you need anything, let us know.
BOB They both retreat over to the shelter of the trees
BOB They are far enough away they cannot hear what you are talking about in a normal tone of voice
Talwin: Mentally Chuckles: "No worries. Besides, you are perfect just as you are. Unless of course you want out. We could always make that work. I'm not that big a bastard. Yeah...let's go check out the baricade. Now it's goint to bother me until I look"
Carissa (Raelynn): (that's fine, figure it's about time for second watch...?)
BOB Not yet
Carissa (Raelynn): (oh yeah the barricade)
Michael (Talwin): (Also sorry bob. I think this is an insane amount of internal monoloughing with the sword and this stuff. Doing my best to keep it straight)
BOB you three can continue
Carissa (Raelynn): (go check it out Talwin)
BOB among other things to discuss
Carissa (Raelynn): returns to camp
Licornah [W Comm]: :: lets out a low whistle :: Whew, that was an interaction
Raelynn: returns to camp
Michael (Talwin): Nods. "Call if you need anytthing. We don't know anything yet"
Michael (Talwin): LOL Lorie
Raelynn: Oh, they seem harmless. Maybe not smart, but harmless.
Michael (Talwin): Now what the hell do we have here?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: And don't forget about the purple one. I suspect she is hiding something
Talwin: Begins pawing through the clumps with his gloves
BOB Talwin quickly finds several human skulls
Licornah [W Comm]: :: pauses :: Umm, if that's a grave site, is it wise to dig those remains up
Talwin: Mentally: "Everyone is hiding something. I wouldn't worry to much about ....what the fuck?"
Lorie (Licornah): (I've seen Poltergeist, I know how this goes)
Lisa (Indigo): lol
Talwin: Turns to Lorie
Michael (Talwin): Sorry. Habit
Talwin: Turns to Licornah
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: This is not good. I recommend questioning that Bongo to see what he knows about it. I suspect they are playing dumb
Raelynn: Ummm are they.... fresh?
Talwin: Wake everyone up, we're moving. Keep them quiet please. I'll help get the wagon hitched. We can see if Rae wants to warn their friends
Talwin: Shakes head
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: separate the two. Do not let them get their story straight before you can question them
Michael (Talwin): It odesn't matter. I've purged one necromancers work, I have no desire to ever see one again
Talwin: It odesn't matter. I've purged one necromancers work, I have no desire to ever see one again
Talwin: Indigo might be annoyed at me, but he won't judge to harshly. Let's move
Raelynn: We can't move now. The horses are asleep, we have the circus act nearby.,
Licornah [W Comm]: But our spellcasters...
Talwin: Rae, do you want me to run and warn your new friends?
Talwin: Grumbles in frustration.
Raelynn: We don't know WHY they're there.
Talwin: Sigh
Bixi Fizzlebang: Everyone is already awake, those darn drums could have woken the ghosts
Talwin: Shrugs
Talwin: OK. Then you can weigh in
Talwin: Heres' a large amount ofhuman skulls here. Want to move on or go back to sleep?
Thistle: LET ME SLEEP.
Thistle: rolls over and attempts to fall back asleep
Talwin: Eyes Rae
Licornah [W Comm]: :: pauses to pray for those in the grave and hope they were sent to a restful destination ::
Talwin: Shrugs. "Fine by me. ONe of us should keep an eye on this area though periodically. I'll take a double shift tonight"
Bixi Fizzlebang: I would also like to go back to sleep. What kind of circus did they say is coming? And how far behind? Maybe we could make friends with some animals before we take off tomorrow
Raelynn: I think we keep watch like we are. We don't know their story. Maybe it's a grave. Maybe some hobgoblins will try to attack you.
Raelynn: You can go on watch with Thistle if it makes you feel better. I'm sure Indigo can take care of himself.
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: The little one is almost as stupid as the elves
Talwin: Oh dear god. Please don't ever say that within his earshot. He might get ideas
Raelynn: shrugs
Raelynn: But he can. Mostly. Not his appearance, but fighting, sure!
Talwin: Grumbles one last time in frustration, but at a loss, just decides to walk away and keep patrolling
Bixi Fizzlebang: After we've been here for awhile, we will all need your help with appearances Rae
Talwin: [d20 = 4]
Raelynn: smiles
Raelynn: And I'll be happy to help!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): MAKEOVER SLUMBER PARTY INCOMING!!!
Raelynn: Oh, I actually meant to give Howard some wrinkle cream I made him. Six years was rough on his skin.
Carissa (Raelynn): WOOO!!
BOB And so passes the first watch, who is on second?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): We can swap braiding techniques
Lisa (Indigo): Indigo
Michael (Talwin): Talwin is because now I'm paranoid as Fudge
Lisa (Indigo): ohh sleep
Bixi Fizzlebang: lol, you're welcome Michael
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc
Carissa (Raelynn): (Indigo, Zayden, Yout)
Michael (Talwin): You sure LIsa? This is so weird for a camping spot with the circus and all....
Talwin: and skulls
Indigo: gets up and grabs his weapons for watch
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm going back to sleep. Wake me when it's my turn.
Raelynn: Indigo, there's some spotters for a circus camping in those trees nearby. And some human skulls under the barricades.
Licornah [W Comm]: :: waves :: Night all -- mind the farmers across the way with the Circus on their drum
Bixi Fizzlebang: glances at Talwin
Shislif (Zayden): Think I'm on 2nd correct?
Talwin: Gives a quick overview to Indigo. Claps his shoulder. "Just kick me when you need something."
Youtargim: So Rae, is all well? Should I watch for anything?
Indigo: It was a circus?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Or if I'm not needed, I'm fine with sleeping the whole night through
Raelynn: Talwin isn't happy about the skulls and wanted to move. So you might want to keep an eye on... er, both of them.
Talwin: Drops in bed
Talwin: It was something
Carissa (Raelynn): (Bixi was third)
Indigo: Okay Talwin. Get some rest
Talwin: Grumbles
Zayden: Sleep well
Raelynn: Not a WHOLE circus. Just two to make camp for the rest. Who might be behind them...?
Indigo: Are the skulls moving or talking?
Youtargim: How big is a whole circus?
Talwin: Just falls on the bedroll, too wary to get truly comfortable
Raelynn: shrugs
Talwin: Grips sword and rolls over
Raelynn: Only those two have showed up so far.
Raelynn: The skulls haven't done anything.
Raelynn: Except freak Talwin out.
Zayden: what did you think of them?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Be careful. If this circus is not a true circus, they might cast a spell to turn your friends against you and they will murder you in your sleep. I have no desire to battle wills with a new companion.
Talwin: Mentally: "Sometimes I wonder how we all are still alive Reven."
Indigo: Then we'll probably be fine
Youtargim: That does not seem to be big enough to be a circus, even with the skulls included
Raelynn: Anyways, I need my beauty rest. Good night!
Raelynn: Good luck!
Indigo: Bixi can look for ghost heads on her watch
Bixi Fizzlebang: Goodnight
Indigo: Goodnight!
Zayden: night!
Raelynn: Oh and drummer PROMISED not to drum so if he breaks his promise, um, do something.
Michael (Talwin): Mentally: "You offering to "take watch?" snickers good naturedly to Reven."
Talwin: Mentally: "You offering to "take watch?" snickers good naturedly to Reven."
Bixi Fizzlebang: Gosh, I hope the ghosts aren't disembodied heads... that would be sad
Zayden: Noted
Youtargim: Who promised not to drume?
Carissa (Raelynn): (dunno who slept where)
Zayden: the drummer boys
Indigo: Those guys in the trees I guess
BOB hint to go look up the chat at that
Indigo: I don't see them
Youtargim: Should we go find them?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Yes, put me somewhere safe, where I can see what is going on and protect you.
Zayden: there were 2 of them, woke us all up
Youtargim: I slept through it all
Zayden: with their drums, an obnoxious instrument to be sure
Youtargim: On ship you learn to sleep through noises
Youtargim: except bells
Zayden: what about bells?
Zayden: or what's so special about bells?
Youtargim: When you hear a bell ring you know it is important
Michael (Talwin): Mentally: "I was kidding Reven. But, if you want, I'll just keep you unsheathed on the bedroll"
Youtargim: so you react quick
Talwin: Mentally: "I was kidding Reven. But, if you want, I'll just keep you unsheathed on the bedroll"
Zayden: Hmmm good to know
Youtargim: Have you ever been on a ship at sea?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: you might as well put me away to rest then. I can't see anything from here.
Youtargim: Indigo? You are an Admiral right? have you been to sea?
Zayden: I have! Not under great circumstances though
Talwin: Mentall Chuckles
Talwin: Puts on top of chest and faces upward. Grips pommel. "At least you'll see if I'm about to be stabbed"
Talwin: Drifts off
Indigo: In rivers and lakes yes
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: If I see it about to happen, I will scream as loud as I can
Zayden: This Talwin is a noisy sleeper...
Youtargim: Where were you going Zayden?
Indigo: Yeah he worries a lot
Youtargim: Lakes are good sailing sometimes Indigo
Michael (Talwin): (He's deep in mental conversation :) )
Youtargim: Why do you think Talwin is so worried?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): The sword really likes talwin. They are total besties.
Youtargim: Is he afraid of clowns?
Zayden: childhood memories really, in good times when I still had a family, we'd sail the local lake on our days off
Michael (Talwin): LOL Lemon
Michael (Talwin): (It is super fun to talk to the sword. I gott admit)
Zayden: We once had 4 generations on a single sail. it's crazy to think how much of that has passed without me since I've been away...
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): And Bixi is so optimistic and cautious, it's kind of fun to be a bloodthirsty jerk
Indigo: Do you want to go home?
Youtargim: It is strange to be gone so long, but not be that long, you know?
Licornah [W Comm]: (AFK to help Tmac)
Zayden: I think there's a part of me that wants to go home, and that's the part I need to let go of
Zayden: and yes, they're older but they're not gone
Youtargim: What do you think of as home now Zayden?
Zayden: where my boots touch the ground, instrument in hand, and free air in my lungs
Youtargim: Grins
Bixi Fizzlebang -> Talwin: I'm so tempted to scream and wake talwin up and just say the sword had a nightmare lol
Zayden: And where do you call home Youtargim, if I may ask?
Youtargim: Indigo is Dragon Fen home for you? I do not think I have seen a halfling living alone before
Indigo: That's a good thing!
Indigo: Oh yes. For a long time now
Youtargim: My Princess is waiting for me I hope
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, also, for TMO... A camp with clowns? This is the worst AirDnD ever, I want a refund :P
Indigo: I went home a while ago and it was nice but didn't feel like home any more
Indigo: Did you write her?
Youtargim: I did write a letter but I know it will take a long time to get there,
Youtargim: unless the Countess takes it herself
Indigo: What was that scroll you got from the elves? Was it magic?
Youtargim: (hugs grin) It is a boat
Zayden: Post service isn't what it used to be
Youtargim: Well sort of a boat
Indigo: Huh???
Michael (Talwin): I mean...After a solid minute of thinking about it, it would be pretty effing funny Lemon.
Indigo: A paper boat?
Youtargim: Yes
Youtargim: only for two but still a boat
Youtargim: that folds up into your pocket
Zayden: Sounds like a handy boat
Indigo: Maybe you can take Raelynn for a boat ride
Youtargim: That is a very good idea
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): gross
Youtargim: when we get to a lake
Youtargim: maybe some music
Youtargim: percussion,
Zayden: I mean there could be other people who like boat rides too you know...
Youtargim: wind
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lollllllll
Michael (Talwin): lol
Zayden: Plus I come with music
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): theeeeere you see her
Indigo: laughs
Michael (Talwin): sitting there across the way....
Youtargim: (LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrRbB-qUJfY">(LINK)</a>
Indigo: Take Zayden for a boat ride too!
Shislif (Zayden): lol
Youtargim: Thank you Indigo that is a very good idea
Shislif (Zayden): nice choice!
Youtargim: But Zayden, who did you leave behind?
Youtargim: It must be really hard for how long you were gone
Youtargim: How many years was it?
Zayden: Yes...
Zayden: it IS hard
Zayden: one makes plans
Zayden: and god laughs
Indigo: Maybe that's why Branwyn hates planning
Indigo: What plans did you have?
Zayden: The usual really
Zayden: to get on that boat and to kiss the girl
Zayden: to have the little ones run around while I play my music in the back, something smelling good out the kitchen
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol
Youtargim: Grins the salt air, the wind at your back, and a fat merchant ship on the horizon
TMO: don't forget your dinglehopper!
Zayden: but turns out that was my brother's destiny, not mine
Indigo: lol
Youtargim: OH
Youtargim: That is not where I thought you were going
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): You want a thingamabob? I've got 20
Zayden: I was gona for so long
Zayden: gone
Zayden: excuse me i get emotional
Michael (Talwin): lol
BOB (LINK)

Indigo: I'm sorry. You could still do that some day with some one
Licornah [W Comm]: (Sorry, back)
Youtargim: Yes, it must be hard but we all start over
Zayden: It just seemed to happen so quick, to see their children so grown
Zayden: But yes you are right
Zayden: each day the sun rises
Youtargim: Indigo? Are you married?
Zayden: AND I look way better than they do right now
Youtargim: Do you have kids?
Youtargim: Laughs with Zayden
Indigo: We'll be on a boat with a bunch of girls soon so I am sure you could kiss one of them if you wanted to
Indigo: No I don't have any.
Zayden: Only if you'll be my lobster
Michael (Talwin): oh jesus
Indigo: I had a girl friend for a long time but she was human so that wasn't going to happen and then she died
Youtargim: I am sorry
Indigo: I don't know if I'll have a girlfriend again
Michael (Talwin): ("So that wasn';t going to happen" The worst kind of post-breakup contemplation
Youtargim: How long do halflings live? Is it like Elves that live past several human wives?
Indigo: It's okay. I'm better about it now
Zayden: It sounds like you had some nice time together, though
Indigo: Longer than humans but nowhere close to as long as elves

Indigo: Yes I'll miss her on the ship. She used to chant to keep the rowers in time
Indigo: Everyone loved it!
Indigo: laughs
Youtargim: Do you remember what she would chant? I could do some of them
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): The links keep coming and they don't stop coming
Michael (Talwin): They good though
Indigo: I'll try to remember some
Shislif (Zayden): yea
Youtargim: Do you think we should check on those two people from earlier?
Youtargim: do you really think they are from a circus?
Zayden: I don't, I subscribe to the school of it ain't broke...
Indigo: Nah! Why bother them if they aren't bothering us?
Zayden: I don't know I meant to say duh
Indigo: Yup Zayden!
Indigo: grins
Youtargim: I like being near the fire
Zayden: Me too
Indigo: Wanna play dice? I have some coppers from the hobgoblins. We could bet
Zayden: Firelight makes people look more attractive you know
Zayden: bet what?
Indigo: Does it?
Indigo: coppers
Indigo: digs in his pockets and pulls out a handful
Zayden: Sure, if money is your thing?
Zayden: Or we could truth or dare it...
Indigo: It's not worth much
Indigo: Never played that
Youtargim: I am .... hmmmm what do you have to dare?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ohhhhh, truth or dare, that brings back memories
Shislif (Zayden): lol yea
Youtargim: Tell me how you play that Zayden
Zayden: Well back in school we'd usually dare kisses...
Youtargim: I always did it with a knife
Zayden: But it could be anything obviously, not sure it's as fun though
Indigo: I don't want to kiss you
Zayden: And truth is truth, we reveal all our secrets
Youtargim: Are you sure Indigo? He looks better by the firelight
Indigo: laughs
Zayden: Then go for truth
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol
Indigo: Okay
Indigo: Truth?
Zayden: This is some good looking firelight yall
Michael (Talwin): (After all this, my "1" better be turned into at least a 10 by now)
Shislif (Zayden): firelight bonus :)
Youtargim: You go first Zayden ask away
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): And don't underestimate the importance of the body language
Zayden: Ok Indigo, out of the group, who do you have a secret crush on?
Michael (Talwin): Snort
Youtargim: Huh
Indigo: Ummm no one
Michael (Talwin): So, Lion King ref next week?
Michael (Talwin): Maybe lion in the circus...
Zayden: Ah mr cool doesn't have a crush on anybody?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol, I'll have to rewatch it, but I'm in

Indigo: I used to kind of like Jilly but then she went and got married and had 4 kids so I guess that's not ever going to happen
Indigo: But she isn't here anyway
Michael (Talwin): ("So thats not going to happen")
Zayden: Cool cool
Youtargim: I can see that Jilly is cute
TMO: (way to the heart is thru the stomach)
Zayden: Do you think crushes ever fade?
Zayden: Yea I heard good things about Jilly
Michael (Talwin): (If you have a really sharp knife, its through the fourth rib)
Indigo: They can change I think
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Lol, I was going to say I think he's confusing loving the food with loving the cook
Zayden: The other Bards were saying
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol michael
Zayden: Is it the same crush that changes?
Indigo: Saying what?
Indigo: Well when you know for sure that Jilly only whacks you with a spoon because you aren't eating enough vegetables and not because she like you I think the crush changes
Youtargim: Violence is not a way to show affection
Indigo: Not for Jilly
Indigo: grins
Michael (Talwin): (Reven disagrees)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol!
Zayden: From what I hear, Jilly could whack me with a spoon anytime she likes
Indigo: She only hits people with a spoon that she likes
Youtargim: OK so Zayden.... Have you ever robbed someone?
Zayden: Of their better judgement? Absolutely
Zayden: of their belongings? Never
Michael (Talwin): (Have you ever been in a turkish prison?)
Youtargim: Laughs
Indigo: laughs
Indigo: Have you Youtargim?
Indigo: You're a pirate?
Youtargim: Certainly, I am, or was, a pirate
Youtargim: It is, or at least was my job
Zayden: How is that possible? I've yet to hear once go "Arrrrgh"
Indigo: Did you ever kidnap people and sell them?
Zayden: I've been on the wrong side of that equation
Indigo: Me too
Youtargim: I have never taken slaves
Zayden: Hey you think those drummer boys are making out right now?
Youtargim: That is wrong
Indigo: Yes it is
Youtargim: Hmmm, do you think that we would hear them?
Zayden: It's for sure a party foul
Zayden: the kidnapping/enslaving people, not the making out
Youtargim: (LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiptUShsnGs">(LINK)</a>
Indigo: laughs again
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol, both, depending on what kind of party
Michael (Talwin): This night is so damn funny
Youtargim: I think making out is a pretty nice thing

BOB yes is a good thing Sharif
Shislif (Zayden): This prince is gettin it thx :)
Indigo: Time to sleep again!
Zayden: Night folks, sweet dreams
Indigo: wakes Bixi for watch

Indigo: Time to wake up Bixi
BOB Very glad for that Michael
Shislif (Zayden): no apologies needed :)
BOB Bixi, Howard and Thistle
Lisa (Indigo): it's good!
Zayden: Quick note for the next watch
Zayden: we think the drummer boys may be making out, just fyi
Indigo: Howard, get up!
Howard Plum: I'm up!
Zayden: gets into his sleeping compartment area
Howard Plum: Anything to know?
Bixi Fizzlebang: ugghhh
Zayden: Drummer boys may be making out
Zayden gets comfortable in sleeping area
Thistle: That's a weird thing to wake someone up with.
Zayden: you're telling me
Bixi Fizzlebang: what
Indigo: Stay away from the pile of skulls and there are two circus people sleeping on the other side of the road
Bixi Fizzlebang: I thought only one was a drummer. Are there more?
Thistle: Okay that sounds more reasonable.
Howard Plum: Skulls?
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm sorry, what about that sounds reasonable?
Howard Plum: Goodnight!
Zayden: night folks, good luck
Howard Plum: goes back to sleep
Thistle: shrugs
Thistle: HOWARD!
Shislif (Zayden): gonna refill brb
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Thistle: No. You're on third watch.
Indigo: goes back to sleep
Bixi Fizzlebang: I was going to suggest checking on the visitors but... kind of sounds like I might not want to interrupt
Carissa (Thistle): (assuming that was by accident but still gonna pretend it wasnt)

Thistle: Oh! Or juggle some skulls. Can you juggle?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Well, I guess it's hard to see plants when they're covered in snow
Howard Plum: I cannot juggle!
Bixi Fizzlebang: Thistle you're a little more... macabre than the other elves
Howard Plum: I can whistle
Bixi Fizzlebang: I like it.

Howard Plum: [SKILL] Whistling/Humming [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 10]

Thistle: Okay so whistle while *attempting* to juggle.
Carissa (Thistle): (lol no worries)
Thistle: You have magic. You can cheat.
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm going to say she said it anyway. Maybe she never bothered looking at the ears
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc
Thistle: Oh that's good Howard!
Howard Plum: It's too hard to concentrate on magic and hand eye coordinaton
Thistle: And I was raised, kind of sort of partially? By an elf. But I'm not an elf. Although I know Elvish! Sort of.
Thistle: Shi says I don't but I do.
Thistle: Sigh. What are going to do with you Howard? How are we going to impress the circus guys then?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh! Maybe it's just an accent or something, elves seem like they would be nitpicky about something like that
Howard Plum: Say something in elvish
Thistle: Nah I don't feel like it right now.
BOB (LINK)

Thistle: Aww thanks!
Thistle: OH WAIT!
Michael (Talwin): Been awhile since CSI bob
Bixi Fizzlebang: Do we need to impress the circus guys?
Thistle: Munedhis!
Howard Plum: You're a gypsy. You should be able to impress circus people

BOB (LINK)

Thistle: Howard, I see you asking Raelynn for hand cream in your future.
Thistle: You hands are... er, a bit... well they need better care.
Howard Plum: hand cr ...?
Michael (Talwin): (Gotta be nearing a record on links at this point. Haven't had a bad one yet)
Howard Plum: Hmmm
Howard Plum: All right. Thank you
Thistle: Yeah yeah sure.
Howard Plum: You want to talk to the circus people Bixi?
Thistle: Uhhh, feel free to ask me again. Maybe once we're out of the Mist. You know, sunlight and angles of light and all.
Bixi Fizzlebang: Um, not really...
Howard Plum: Oh I thought you wanted to
Thistle: Are they still alive?
Bixi Fizzlebang: No, I don't WANT to, I just wondered if we SHOULD
Bixi Fizzlebang: Very different things
Howard Plum: I don't know. You could sneak up on them and check maybe
Thistle: I mean one way to find out, right?
Thistle: walks off
Howard Plum: You are good at sneaking
Bixi Fizzlebang: I've never been in a group and had a watch before. I'm not sure what our responsibilities are here?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Would you mind if I try to talk to any ghosts that might be hiding around here?
Thistle: returns
Howard Plum: Go right ahead
Thistle: Well, cool. Nothing there. You think they were actually ghosts?
Bixi Fizzlebang: perks up
Howard Plum: Indigo said there was a pile of skulls so maybe they would be there
Bixi Fizzlebang: Maybe!
Carissa (Thistle): (she probably just kind of reappears I suppose)
Carissa (Thistle): (guess you can cancel movement then)
Howard Plum: The circus people?
Howard Plum: Ghost circus?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Are you there ghosts? It's me, Bixi. If any of you know why your skulls are here or know anything about the circus and would like to share, I'm here and ready to listen.
Thistle: I dunno. I went to where y'all keep point to and no one was there.

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): That is MY FAVORITE song from that movie
Michael (Talwin): Great movie, even if I thought it was somewhat historically inaccurate :)
Michael (Talwin): Great soundtrack
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, but the music was so good
Michael (Talwin): Right!
Carissa (Thistle): (agree on all those accounts)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): And the choreography in that scene
Shislif (Zayden): which movie?
BOB Carissa beat me before I could add that one in the next part
Carissa (Thistle): :)
BOB what is Bixi doing to summon the ghosts?
Carissa (Thistle): also fantastic music movie)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Um, I used my persusasion and said what I said
Thistle: I don't think that's how you summon ghosts, Bixi.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi is calling herself a ghost hunter but she literally knows nothing lol
Bixi Fizzlebang: Well how do you summon ghosts?
BOB would need more than just Persuasion, a bit of a spell for something
BOB but please explore it out
Thistle: I dunno. You should ask Rae or Branwyn. They can talk to ghosts.
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ooooh, I will ask Rae tomorrow then
Michael (Talwin): Oh sorry Shislif. Just in case "The Greatest Showman"
Thistle: Branwyn has her crystal ball. Rae has... um, I dunno. She was bragging about it... six years ago?? I don't know if she's actually done it before.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Lol, yeah, I'm trapped watching this now, thanks
Howard Plum: Branwyn has hosted seances before
Thistle: But in the Mist...
Shislif (Zayden): oh no worries but thanks, never saw that one
Thistle: OH! Have you been to one, Howard?
Shislif (Zayden): Love me some Hugh Jackson though
BOB Bixi should perk up at that
Howard Plum: We used to have them in Dryads Lair when we were trying to find a murderer
Bixi Fizzlebang: Really! Who did she contact?
Howard Plum: Some people that used to live in the mansion we were staying at
Howard Plum: And some Buttercup lady who died at our fountain I think
Bixi Fizzlebang: The mansion Branwyn lives in now?
Thistle: Buttercup? Was she a horse?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ooooh, Buttercup is a lovely name
Bixi Fizzlebang: nods at Thistle
Howard Plum: No the one in Dryads Lair. We'll probably be there again when we get there
Bixi Fizzlebang: I knew a Buttercup horse once. She was a very nice horse.
Howard Plum: No this was a girl
Thistle: Huh, maybe a gypsy girl?

Howard Plum: I think she was lost. She died and was teleported to our house. It was strange. You never know who you will contact with those seances
BOB and an encounter check please for Lemon
Thistle: Maybe we can hold one again once we get there?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Well I hope next time I will be invited! I would love to learn that!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): a d20?
BOB yes
Bixi Fizzlebang: [d20 = 14]
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is it because of my song choice?
Thistle: We should bug Rae about it unless Bran joins us once we get there.
Michael (Talwin): I liked it
Thistle: Although she might just cut and run
BOB and for Sharif and Lemon and Lorie, that was when they were there to find out who murdered the previous ambassador, you might want to ask about that in character as you get closer to Dryads Lair
BOB Stabbed, Poisoned, Set on Fire
Bixi Fizzlebang: I will definitely ask!
Carissa (Thistle): (right before I joined so don't ask me)
BOB Branwyn was her replacement
BOB so you can have fun

BOB oh and by the way that is Howard's home city
Lisa (Howard Plum): serious case of overkill
BOB BUT it is morning
Shislif (Zayden): Cool thx GM
Lisa (Howard Plum): wagons ho!
The time is 6:00 AM
Zayden Yawns and stretches in his sleeping area compartment thingy
BOB and smiles I do have the clock right now, only shows here the time, but advances the day and moon phases correctly
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: NO NOT THE CLOWNS!!!!
Thistle: Hey! I thought y'all said there were circus people in the trees?
Zayden: I said there were two drummer boys making out
Talwin: Jerks awake. "Clowns, what, what?" Grips Sword.
Thistle: Which is still a weird thing to say.
Thistle: Anyways, either you all lied or they aren't where you said they'd be.
Zayden: One must embrace the weird
Zayden: especially before coffee
Thistle: Nah, I get enough of that in life already.
Talwin: Looking like a herion addicted badger who hasn't slept well
Zayden: such hostility, why would we lie?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): What's coffee?
Carissa (Thistle): (well I wasn't going to type that out loud but...)
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): shoot, supposed to be bixi
Bixi Fizzlebang: What's coffee?
Zayden: Something I heard in a dream once
Shislif (Zayden): Sorry I guess coffee doesn't exist in this world?
BOB Tea over coffee
Raelynn: Oh no! They didn't get eaten, did they??
Zayden: In some other land, it was like tea
Licornah [W Comm]: :: spends time preparing for the day and giving thanks ::
BOB Youtargim would know coffee
Zayden: but dark and gross
Raelynn: We should go check on them!
Zayden: the circus folk?
Raelynn: heads over towards the trees
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): From my understanding, it does, but not around here, and Bixi has been here always, until joining up with this riff-raff
Zayden follows
Raelynn: HELLO? Are you still there??
Zayden follows Raelynn
Raelynn: (insert names I forgot)
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh, Rae!
TMO: (my L key is really flaking out over here typing in Prince Levistus, Lord of the Fifth Layer of Hell's details.)
Zayden: Hi there I'm here too, just don't want anybody to be surprised
Carissa (Raelynn): (and cannot scroll up to see because chat cut off)
Bixi Fizzlebang: After we check on these guys, I need you to tell me about seances, because I'm wonderign what happened to all the people whose skulls are here
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol it wants to make sure it still exists)
Zayden: besides circus folk like bards, good to have me come along
Zayden: I hear
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm sure they do, you're very likable!
Carissa (Raelynn): (Bob tossed us on another map so not sure we'lll find them...)
Bixi Fizzlebang: follows Rae
Zayden: Thank you Bixi, I like you too
Zayden smiles
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Why do you travel with these idiots.
BOB There is no sign of anyone in the trees
Zayden: Thing they were ghosts?
Zayden: If I'm being totally honest
Raelynn: Ohh I hope they're okay... we'll have to keep an ear out for their circus.
Bixi Fizzlebang: IT WAS A GHOST CIRCUS!!!!!
Zayden: I didn't see anybody making out, I was just making conversation...
Bixi Fizzlebang: We should have checked on them I knew it!
Youtargim: They were fairly loud for ghosts
Raelynn: Oh, and yes, Bixi, but it's hard to talk to anyone in The Mist.
Raelynn: No no they looked quite real to me.
Talwin: Grumbles under his breath "Same reason I travel with you. Loyalty and a damn good time."
Raelynn: nods
Talwin: Grunts
Carissa (Raelynn): And definitely sounded real.
Raelynn: And definitely sounded real.
Talwin: Walks back to camp
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: THIS is your idea of a good time?
Zayden: They could be the real looking type of ghosts
Zayden: plus it would explain all those skulls, they're the skulls!
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Yeah!
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): dang, bixi again
Youtargim: Bixi do ghosts sound like people too?
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): dang, bixi again
Bixi Fizzlebang: Yeah!
Talwin: Grumbles "No. We deal with these parts to get to the good ones."
Raelynn: Well at least we were able to camp overnight near some skulls without any misfortune.
Raelynn: glances at Talwin
Youtargim: ANd the banging, drumming, do you think it could be someone beating on the skulls?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Um... some of them probably do!
Raelynn: Umm, no, he had a drum with him.
Zayden: I once heard about this ghost that didn't even know he was a ghost! He'd just follow this kid around all over the place, it was pretty weird
Youtargim: Huh
Zayden: Sorry I'm just thinking out loud
Youtargim: I would think that if I walked through walls, I would notice and wonder if I was a ghost
Zayden: So what do you guys want to do?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Rae, are you trying to tell me you know everythign about EVERY type of ghost? Because if so, we need to talk more.
Talwin: Sighs. Walks over to the skulls in the daylight and examines them carefully. Pokes around the piles, looking for clothes, identification, weaponry, anything really
Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 13]
Raelynn: Ummm no. I only learned recently how to talk to them without the magic of my goddess.
Zayden: Find anything Tal?
Bixi Fizzlebang: But Yout, if you didn't know you were a ghost, you wouldn't try to walk through walls, would you? Be logical.
Talwin: I'm looking I"m looking. Sorry, slept bad last night
Zayden: Good point Bixi!
-> Talwin: Talwin can tell that these were piled here alone, no other bones, seems like a dozen or more, some look like maybe they were on spikes?
Zayden: No rush buddy!
Talwin: Huh
Zayden: Rather the job be done right than fast
Youtargim: But Bixi, If I did not know I was a ghost I would try to open the door and it would not work, my hand would go right through right?
Talwin: Well, I see no clothes or anything. Just skulls. Looks like from a couple of them they were mounted on pikes some time ago. Nothing else though
Bixi Fizzlebang: Is there a right way to dig through a pile of skulls?
Youtargim: OH maybe if they had chains on them
Talwin: Don't see any circus stuff, just skulls
Youtargim: We could hear them rattling
Youtargim: so then it would be like drums
Bixi Fizzlebang: Or maybe if you live somewhere where it's a loot of doorways and not a lot of doors
Youtargim: maybe these had drums instead of chains?
Zayden: Anybody else getting hungry over here?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Who knows!? There are infinite possiblities, considering the amount of possible ghosts in the worlds
Bixi Fizzlebang: Definitely hungry
Youtargim: Who is cooking this morning? I thought it would be the last watch
Bixi Fizzlebang: Breakfast is when I miss Jilly the most
Youtargim: Looks over at Rae and Bixi
Zayden: Unfortunately, coming across a pile of skull is not an uncommon occurence in this world
Raelynn: You can.
Youtargim: Howard? Can you magic up something?
Talwin: Grunts: "Yeah, whatever." Louder. "Alright everyone. Let's get fed up and move out." Pops open a water pouch and handes to Indigo. "A little honey flavor. I ran out though. No more after today"
Bixi Fizzlebang: Um, I was told my job was to make sure nothing attacked the camp. No one said anything about cooking
Indigo: Not for 9 people
Howard Plum: Not for 9 people
Bixi Fizzlebang: I could try to whip something up though, if we have a little bit before we want to move on
Thistle: Oh come ON! I left so I wouldn't HAVE to babysit here! Can noen of you cook??
Howard Plum: there are provisions in the wagon
Talwin: I brought a wheel of Cheese for Bixi. We can slice some of that up
BOB grins somethign to think about for tonight and tomorrow
Shislif (Zayden): anyplace for me to fish nearby?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I have cooking!
Talwin: Courtesy of the Inn
Carissa (Thistle): (wooo! Bixi can do it)
Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Cooking [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 18]
Carissa (Thistle): (Thistle was "taught" by Jilly but has no prof)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Lol, or not
BOB No need to make a check when doing things normally Lemon
BOB only if you are trying to cook in a rain storm for example
BOB Or make something very special for guests
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ok, but I like the idea of cooking something not great for everyone lol
Howard Plum: We asked Penny for food and Jilly always gives us stuff. We should be good to Loosend I think
Thistle: It's not Jilly cooking, but this'll work. Because it's also not ME cooking.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Now I can watch them all pretend to like it
Zayden: I don't have any cooking skills, otherwise I'd be happy to, but I can fish if there's a body of water nearby
Talwin: Ignores them all and packs up the Wagon while they sort out food. Hums to himself
Bixi Fizzlebang: Fishing sounds nice but it's so cold I think if there were water nearby it might be frozen
Zayden: That's pretty cold!
Zayden: I'm sorry for yelling
BOB and sadly for Zayden, in the Kingdom of Drillian called sarcastically "two hills in a swamp" you happen to be on the one place....
Zayden: I'm not good with morning
Zayden: s
Thistle: We'll be stuck on a ship soon enough where we'll probably eat a lot of fish. No need ot start now...
BOB It is called the Dry Road for a reason
Bixi Fizzlebang: Or maybe it just feels cold from sleeping on the side of the road
Shislif (Zayden): huh?
BOB Drillian is 80% swamps
Shislif (Zayden): Oh ok I getchya lol sorry
BOB you happen to be on the ridge that leads down into the middle of the Kingdom
Shislif (Zayden): And you can't fish swamps which is something I know for sure
BOB OH you can fish in the swamps
Shislif (Zayden): oh lol nvm :)
BOB Lots of fish, eels, snakes, frogs, alligators, etc.
Shislif (Zayden): ah stuff that could be dangerous you mean?
BOB grins
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Suspiciously like Florida
Michael (Talwin): Swamp Dragons, Krackens, nothing to big a deal. Just ask bob
Shislif (Zayden): yea lol
BOB so making good progress
BOB moving northward on the roadway
Zayden: Do we have time for some yoga exercises? Get a good stretch on before we move out?
Youtargim: Stretching is good
Bixi Fizzlebang: (LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLQ1cK9Edhc">(LINK)</a>
Zayden: Especially while travelling
Talwin: A look of absolute longsuffering crosses darkly over Talwins face.
Indigo: Walking next to the wagon all day isn't stretching enough?
Zayden: I suppose it depends on your lunge
Youtargim: That is exercise
Talwin: Echanchges glance iwth Indigo, as if pleading desperately for the sweet releif of a deth
Talwin: Echanchges glance iwth Indigo, as if pleading desperately for the sweet releif of a deth
Shislif (Zayden): lol
Youtargim: Stretching is for before and after
Zayden: ah but is exercijse the same as stretching
Zayden: ?
Youtargim: When you are doing your sword training, don't you stretch?
Youtargim: loosen up your arms
Talwin: I'll tell you what. We'll get a headstart and scout the way. You'll be able to catch up in no time!
Zayden: Well what do you do during your sword training?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: with our natural talent you have no need for stretching, I'm sure
Indigo: I guess. I'm pretty loose as it is
Youtargim: Thistle wiggles her fingers when she is getting ready to do things
Zayden: I thought we were already heading northward?
Youtargim: Nods, I think Talwin is just afraid of the clowns
Zayden: Well it's about finding what's right for you, so if you don't need a stretch certainly don't feel obligated to stretch
Youtargim: stage whisper to Bixi, the Ghost Clowns
Talwin: Mentally to Reven: "No I stretch, just not at pointless times. I'm not THAT old"
Bixi Fizzlebang -> Talwin: chuckles
Zayden: Mentally, I ONLY stretch at pointless times...
Bixi Fizzlebang -> Talwin: pretend that's the sword lol
Talwin: Hikes up pack, tosses last of supplies into Wagon (and will do Lemon lol) and begins leading the horses.
Youtargim: So Licornah
Youtargim: You saw these ghost clowns?
Zayden follows along
Bixi Fizzlebang: I think we should head out as well. Maybe we will catch up to the ghosts
Zayden: Well we don't know for sure they were ghosts?
Youtargim: I did not see anything
Youtargim: Thisle did not find anything
Raelynn: You all were too busy sleeping.
Zayden: It's just a theory, like the planet being round
Michael (Talwin): Bixi! I cannot believe I"m saying this, but talk. About anything, I don't really care. Use your gift of gab!"
Talwin: Bixi! I cannot believe I"m saying this, but talk. About anything, I don't really care. Use your gift of gab!"
Bixi Fizzlebang: If they weren't ghosts then maybe we will catch up to whatever they were
Talwin: About something else!
Youtargim: Oh the world has to be round
Bixi Fizzlebang: A circus certainly didn't come through here, we would have heard it
Bixi Fizzlebang: Are you ok Talwin?
Youtargim: I heard drums, but then there was nothing else
Michael (Talwin): A blood vessel pulses in Talwins forhead
Raelynn: It wasn't a circus. It was two members of a circus. The rest was behind them.
Talwin: A blood vessel pulses in Talwins forhead
Bixi Fizzlebang: Are you scared of ghosts?
Youtargim: so I cannot imagine
Zayden: What if "The Circus" is just like it's street name?
Zayden: like a gang or something
Zayden: or a cult
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ooooooh a circus cult!
Youtargim: See Raelynn is not convinced
Bixi Fizzlebang: That's almost as good as ghosts!
Zayden: Now that would be scary
Bixi Fizzlebang: gets out notebook and writes it down
Shislif (Zayden): lol
Raelynn: They were real. I saw them. I'm not a liar.
Youtargim: Did you ever want to join the Circus Licornahs?
Zayden: Oh nobody is saying that Rae
Raelynn: Hmph.
Youtargim: I believe you
Bixi Fizzlebang: I believe you Rae, I just thought maybe it was possible that you were mistaken about what they were
Zayden: Even if they were ghosts they would still be real
Bixi Fizzlebang: It was late and everyone was tired from traveling
Bixi Fizzlebang: And ghost clowns might be tricksters

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k8craCGpgs">(LINK)</a>
Raelynn: Well that's too bad if that's true. I wanted to see a circus.
BOB (LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8StG4fFWHqg">(LINK)</a>
Zayden: Circuses are cool
Raelynn: And I hope it's there.
Zayden: or is it circusi?
Raelynn: *theirs
Bixi Fizzlebang: I would like to see the animals if they had any, but I would feel sad if they were not nice to the animals
Shislif (Zayden): ay yeahhh
Talwin: Grips sword. Mentally trains with Reven in his mind. Moving through movements and new combinations with Reven's sword attributes, questioning about particular methods and movements. Before long, the traning session has dulled the babble as Talwin runs through the training regimin in his head.
Youtargim: Circusisis?
Bixi Fizzlebang: (LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAnXSzwnABU">(LINK)</a>
Raelynn: rubs forehead
Zayden: sounds like a disease!
Raelynn: I think I know how you feel now, Talwin.
Michael (Talwin): (And probably suffers a huge penalty to Obs, but worth it for Talwin :) )
Zayden: Well ghost or real, either way they're gone, should we eat?
Talwin: Mutters. "We all have our peculiarities"
Talwin: "I won't complain the entire time about it."
Zayden: I once had an omellette with the bacon inside! can you believe it, what a world...
Talwin: Grins
Bixi Fizzlebang: I already ate, help yourself
Talwin: Wut
BOB Lorie you can make an encounter check please
Zayden: help myself to...
Talwin: Turns to Zayden
Talwin: I've heard many things. BUt repeat what you just said about an omelet please
Zayden: Turns to Bixi
Zayden: oh
Zayden: Bacon INSIDE!
Licornah: [d20 = 15]
Zayden: Like you cannot believe!
Bixi Fizzlebang: It's not my best work but... it's hard on the road with all these traveling foods and none of my fresh herbs
Talwin: Talwin ins't sure what he should respond to this statement. He just stares as it appears his soul might be leaving his body. Shakes his head, and continues walking after a moment
Zayden Graciously accept the food from Bixi
BOB the morning passes ...... not quietly... but you move along north on the road
Michael (Talwin): LOL BOB
Carissa (Raelynn): lol
Zayden Humbly eats at the hot breakfast
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: WE SHOULD LOOK FOR WILD PIGS TO SLAUGHTER
Zayden: Thank you Bixi, this was a lovely breakfast, I hope one day to repay the kindness
Michael (Talwin): You should see me on an airplane next to the crowds
Michael (Talwin): I look like i'm physically dying
Licornah [W Comm]: :: thanks Bixi for the breakfast and says a last prayer for the dead ::
BOB I will need two more encounter checks please as the day passes along
Shislif (Zayden): Not quietly, what's that supposed to mean bud?
Talwin: Perks up at the Suggestion. "Sure! That might do us some good. And then, we can somehow shove it into an omelet, you know, like a normal person."
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): What are you even talking about Michael? I feel like I missed the most important part of those statements
Talwin: Mentally
Licornah: [d20 = 2]
Licornah: [d20 = 6]
Shislif (Zayden): how do I do an encounter check?
BOB Roll a D20
Zayden: [d20 = 15]
BOB exactly
Michael (Talwin): (Oh sorry Lories haha. I absolutely hate loud environments and travelling and people badgering me when I want to be left alone. This is a parady of that really :) ) (Unless a different set of stateements?)
Shislif (Zayden): bueno?
BOB so we take those two first for Lorie, then later on with Sharif's
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ohhhh, I see
Shislif (Zayden): oh ok lemme know when you need me to roll
Michael (Talwin): (lemon. Sorry. Losing track of people :) )
BOB right now your key problem is .... (a d8 please from Lemon)
Bixi Fizzlebang: [d8 = 6]
Michael (Talwin): (What's in the box!!!!?)
Shislif (Zayden): haha!
Michael (Talwin): (He's making me nervous...)
BOB and so We have Odds or Evens from Carissa
Raelynn: Hmm...
Carissa (Raelynn): Odds
BOB So Licornah, Rae and Youtargim
Shislif (Zayden): Evens!
Carissa (Raelynn): No there are more odd numbers that are good luck
Zayden: Living or dead, I hope those drummer boys live happily ever after together
Zayden: So what's the deal with this dead ambassador you guys went to go investigate or something?
Zayden: I may have overheard while we were camping
BOB That is interesting,
Carissa (Raelynn): .....?
BOB now that I added the Facing indicator I cannot rotate the icons
Bixi Fizzlebang: Zayden, I would have thought you wanted to talk music with them
Shislif (Zayden): Hmmm
Michael (Talwin): (Was about to log off at the "INteresting" Part)
Carissa (Raelynn): I suggest ignoring those icons and this encounter and moving on.
BOB and so
Zayden: It's a long trip Bixi, and my interest are a wide spectrum, but I'd be delighted to talk music
Michael (Talwin): LOL Agreed
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): He just keeps reeling you back in!
Carissa (Raelynn): unless it's the circus
BOB Rae and Licornah get to make surprise checks
BOB as you are elves
Raelynn: [d20 = 9]
BOB is a d12
Carissa (Raelynn): FRIEND!
Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh, I don't know anything about music, but the drummers must have
Raelynn: [d12 = 7]
Carissa (Raelynn): (yeah realized that after)
Zayden: So what do you think about these drummer boys Bixi? If I may ask?
Lisa (Indigo): in the old days this encounter would be all about making lunch ...
GM: [d12 = 6]
Licornah: [d12 = 10]
BOB chuckles with Lisa
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'd take that encounter
Zayden: As far as music goes dear Bixi, there's nothing to know, there's simply the music you like, and the music you don't. You music you can dance to, and the music meant for another type of dance
BOB so no one is surprised
TMO: I know I'm not
Bixi Fizzlebang: grimaces
Lisa (Indigo): we never thought about bringing food
Shislif (Zayden): I love lunch
BOB by the very large wild boar that is rushing at Youtargim
Lisa (Indigo): lol TMO
TMO: I knew that was there.

Michael (Talwin): Was so confused LOL
Lisa (Indigo): boar
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol Carissa
Lisa (Indigo): that is what is hard with animal talkers with high initiative numbers ... wait or just kill it?
TMO: foof. 3 more of these fippin baatezu royalty to enter. this is surprisingly time consuming to do. I'm going to call it for the night, see if I can find some cough syrup, and go to bed
Shislif (Zayden): feel better!
Lisa (Indigo): Goodnight TMO
Michael (Talwin): (When Talwin saw it gore Yout, he pretty much falls back on Kill)

TMO: g'nite!
'TMO' disconnected
Lorie (Licornah): (Night)
Carissa (Raelynn): (oof and Licornah is towards the end, but uh, the boar attacked and speaking from experience... I don't think it'll listen to her but could be surprised)
BOB Ok so now it is the first round after the surprise
Lisa (Indigo): does Youtargim get a first whack at it since it hit him?
-> Licornah: She does notice that the boar has a saddle on it
Carissa (Raelynn): (.....I think that's actually a horse, lmao)
BOB Indigo first
BOB then Youtargim

Michael (Talwin): jeeze
BOB chuckles
Shislif (Zayden): brb

Raelynn: Licornah can try to talk to it if she wants, but ummm, the rest of us should get out of the way. He has some gnarly tusks.
Shislif (Zayden): So I'm just gonna chill for my turn i guess, boar seems cool
Talwin: Sighs. Holds and Just keeps walking, furiously upset they beat him to the "punch"
[ROUND 2]
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: We are traveling... we should thank the gods for this obvious gift... even your elves should understand the gift of food
Shislif (Zayden): gotta brb again real quick, need me for anything right now though?
Talwin: Mentally: Do...not...get...me...started. This is a lecture you do not wish to hear, even from them doing it to me. Trust me on this one.
Talwin: Mentally: Next time, we'll beat them to the punch.
BOB No to Sharif
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: this is no way for a mighty warrior such as yourself to talk about some spooky elves
Talwin: Both sword and man clearly put out that violence has left the immediate poker hand
Shislif (Zayden): Cool brb again
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
BOB want to check on languages being used with the boar
BOB magically clamed but would it understand?
Talwin: Mentally: Spooky....,eh. Friends, I don't know why, but that's what we do. We all share a friendship and I won't smash it for no reason. Besides, I get my own in the end. I always do. What we need is a another necromancer, or OH, something BIG. We'll have fun then. Keep an eye out for boars though. If we ge tthem before the elves, it's fair game! Maybe we'll get luckyt and another troll might show up?
Carissa (Raelynn): (for Lorie or me?)
BOB Both
Michael (Talwin): (I got probably about 15 mor min and then i'm conking out for bed :) )
Lorie (Licornah): (Given that I see a saddle, W. Common)

Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): (LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVcLIfSC4OE">(LINK)</a>
Carissa (Raelynn): (spell doesn't say language matters so assuming common)
Talwin: Snorts
BOB nods, the spell does not confir understanding
Talwin: Mentally: Anyone ever tell you have some sass?
Carissa (Raelynn): (for Rae she was only trying to calm, not talk to it or understand it)
BOB Ok so you speak quietly and calmly to the board but it does not respond
Carissa (Raelynn): (which is what the spell is to just calm)
BOB to either Rae or Licornah
BOB Yes it is a large boar, yes it has a saddle on it
Raelynn: Maybe it's someone's pet.
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: It's a possiblity. I do not remember much from my former lives
BOB Bixi can make an Intelligence check
Lisa (Indigo): freaking circus boar
Talwin: Sigh
Bixi Fizzlebang: [CHECK] Intelligence (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 10] [d20 = 5]
Raelynn: Do you know animal languages like N'laea does, Licornah?
Carissa (Raelynn): (lol Lisa)
Michael (Talwin): (She's probably right)
Whisper recipient not found.
Usage: /w GM [message] Usage: /w [recipient] [message]
-> Bixi Fizzlebang: Yes that is the right size for a gnome to ride, she has heard of that before
Licornah [W Comm]: :: ponders :: Yes, Raelynn, I have been trained since I was small to speak with animals
Raelynn: Well yes but it didn't understand you right now. Do you know another language to try?
Bixi Fizzlebang: You know, I think this might be a steed... I've heard of gnomes riding wild pigs before, although I didn't know anyone in my village to have done so...
Bixi Fizzlebang: Maybe there are some gnomes nearby!
Raelynn: Oh! Try speaking Gnomish to it, Bixi!
Bixi Fizzlebang [Gnomish]: [Translation] Here, pig!
<font color="#000000">Here, pig!
Indigo: It's out of control if it's running around attacking people
Indigo: It gored Yotargim and heavily wounded him
Bixi Fizzlebang [Gnomish]: [Translation] (LINK)

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjQtzV9IZ0Q">(LINK)</a>
Raelynn: Maybe if you speak to it with your spells in gnomish, Bixi?
Raelynn: Otherwise maybe we should continue on our way... and maybe stop that bleeding.
Indigo: Maybe someone should heal him, yes
Indigo: shakes his head
Youtargim: Yes please
Raelynn: Oh yes, I was just waiting to see if we were doing anything with the boar.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ok, hold on, looking for my spell lol
Raelynn: But here...
Licornah: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 7]
Lorie (Licornah): sorry meant that to target him
Raelynn: Oh. Um, nevermind.
Licornah: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 1]
Heal [1] -> [to Youtargim] [STATUS: Moderate]
Licornah: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 2]
Heal [2] -> [to Youtargim]
Youtargim: I can update that Lorie
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Um, Divine spells don't work in the mist yes? Are we still in the mist?
Carissa (Raelynn): (yes but talk to animals should or friendship)
Carissa (Raelynn): (maybe you can befriend it and get yourself a new ride...)
Talwin: We should kill it unless you plan on keeping it under spell. It might seriously hurt someone else. (Being clearly serious, sword or no)
Raelynn: I think it's someone's pet, Talwin.
Talwin: What if it was a child?
Talwin: Pet or no
Indigo: or at least don't complain about the food. That could have been good
Raelynn: Well I'm not sure why a child would be out on the open road.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): animal friendship is divine type
Talwin: It's one of two in this area. I would highly imagine that children would be on this route.
BOB Bixi can cast that
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): so is gift of speech which would let the animal talk
Talwin: Befriend it, or calm. Whichever, but it is a serious situation
Carissa (Raelynn): (think it's more future and seeing divine that's mist affected)
Carissa (Raelynn): (which those are not)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, then I want to do gift of speech if I can
Raelynn: It is calm.
Bixi Fizzlebang: Bixi Fizzlebang cast a spell NOT memorized.
Bixi Fizzlebang: [CAST] Gift of Speech [at Mammal, Boar, Wild]
Raelynn: Talwin, silly, I already did that. You were too busy talking to yourself to notice, weren't you?
Mammal, Boar, Wild: [SAVE] vs. Spell [d20 = 3]
Save [3] [Target 16] -> [for Mammal, Boar, Wild] [vs Bixi Fizzlebang] [TARGET-FAILED]
Michael (Talwin): (Er. Sorry guys. I'm heading out. But it has been so lovely and lively the last couple of weeks. Very fun and had lots of laughs. See you all next week :) )
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Goodnight Michael!
Carissa (Raelynn): (night Michael!)
BOB have a great night
Lisa (Indigo): Goodnight Michael!
BOB and yes that works for Bixi
Talwin: Night all! Have fun with the boar
Bixi Fizzlebang [W Comm]: Hello boar!
'Michael' disconnected
Indigo: gets back in the wagon
Carissa (Raelynn): (gnomish)
Bixi Fizzlebang [W Comm]: Is your owner nearby?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Nah, it says I can gift it with any language I know
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Going with common so everyone can talk to pig
Mammal, Boar, Wild [Gnomish]: [Translation] far enough
<font color="#000000">far enough
Raelynn: (lol fair, but yeah, that I figured, lol - reasons to read chat later)
Mammal, Boar, Wild: Far Enough
Bixi Fizzlebang [W Comm]: Would you like to go home?
Mammal, Boar, Wild: (unconcerned grunt) {does home have a meaning for a pig?}
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): um, it should
Bixi Fizzlebang [W Comm]: Are you hungry?
Bixi Fizzlebang: offers breakfast leftovers
Howard Plum: You're giving a boar our food?
Eats hungrily
Bixi Fizzlebang: looks around at others
Indigo: You're giving a boar our food?
Lisa (Indigo): not howard
Bixi Fizzlebang [W Comm]: It won't be able to say anything complicated but we can talk to it now. I'm not sure what you all want to know
Indigo: I don't want to know anything
Bixi Fizzlebang: frowns at Indigo
Bixi Fizzlebang [W Comm]: It's hungry. I'm not going to just abandon it when I can help.
Indigo: sighs
Bixi Fizzlebang: Would you like me to take that saddle off?
Indigo: puts his chin in his hand and waits until they can leave
Mammal, Boar, Wild: Shrugs, scratches
Raelynn: Why's it wearing a saddle?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Rae can ask it directly, yes?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Or do I need to translate?
Carissa (Raelynn): (you have to translate I think)
BOB For ease of chat we have been going with the idea that Bixi is saying all this in Gnomish, then translating to Common also, the pig seems to only be understanding spoken to in Gnomish and you granted it the ability to speak in W Comm
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ah, ok
Bixi Fizzlebang: Why is that on you?
Shislif (Zayden): cool
BOB I think only Bixi is hearing, but will double check that later
Mammal, Boar, Wild: It is for running
Bixi Fizzlebang: Running from what?
Mammal, Boar, Wild: Running, to, away, far, slow, Running
Bixi Fizzlebang: (To the others) They say they are "far enough" from home and the saddle is for running
Bixi Fizzlebang: shrugs
Bixi Fizzlebang: Bixi Fizzlebang cast a spell NOT memorized.
Bixi Fizzlebang: [CAST] Animal Friendship [at Mammal, Boar, Wild]
Mammal, Boar, Wild: [SAVE] vs. Spell [d20 = 8]

Bixi Fizzlebang: Come with us, you can be my friend and we can run together
Bixi Fizzlebang: I will feed you
BOB There you go
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ha! Got myself a pony!
BOB Bixi has a steed
Carissa (Raelynn): (did Bixi get a new mount??)
Carissa (Raelynn): (lmao that's amazing)
Raelynn: 9
Carissa (Raelynn): pig not a pony but close enough
BOB and I think that is a good way of wrapping up for the night
Carissa (Raelynn): hope you pick a good name for it by next week
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, lol, sorry, in WoW, I started calling all the mounts ponies, even when they were like, dinosaurs and whatever. Language carryover.
BOB we do need to check on that language for how long it lasts, and who can hear it
Carissa: only for a few rounds and I believe only the speaker...
Carissa: what's the name of it?
Shislif (Zayden): yea gonna call it a night and grab some food, see yall next week :)
BOB have a great night everyone
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, it's fine if I can't talk to it forever. It's my pony now. I assume the elves will be able to talk to it or whatever
'Shislif' disconnected
Carissa: yes and no
Carissa: Rae needs spells to, Nlaea probably not
Licornah [W Comm]: (I get what you're saying Lemon... I do the same thing in WoW)
Carissa: (*probably doesn't need spells)
Lisa: taking it on the boat?
Carissa: I mean we did take wolves on the boat before. What's a boar in comparison?

Lemon: Paves the way for knotty and naughty puns
BOB smiles
Lemon: Goodnight!
