Spring: yeah Lanek's colors are fine

BOB I think you can do that Lorie?

Lanek: [d6 = 3]

Lanek: [d6 = 1]

BOB Not sure have not tried

Lanek: [5d8 = 23]

Lisa: [d100 = 57]

Lorie: The way the menu is setup I don't see a method to make each die a unique color

Lorie: I'm a niche dice person... most folks like their die to match :)

BOB I will see if that has been put in the request list

Lorie: It's a LOW priority ask

Lorie: LOL

Michael (Talwin): last I checked, we were about to be in the middle of a battle?

Michael (Talwin): or did I just totally have "a moment"

Lisa: That was last week

Michael (Talwin): Whew. Thank you. I was dwelling on it today at work

Lorie (Licornah): Oh no...so sorry BOB

BOB Hello Lemon

BOB and I will deal

BOB At this point it is morning

TMO: do you need to reboot?

BOB eh

BOB this works so we forge ahead

BOB Only Zayden is seriously injured

BOB He is at 1 HP now

BOB other than that it is trying to push the rest of the way to Bywater

BOB Going with the idea that I am not alone here

BOB Or am I?

GM: [d20 = 1]

BOB Ouch

Lorie (Licornah): We're here... I am seein ga 4-5 second delay in entering chat and it appearing

Carissa: You can handle that encounter on your own.

Lisa: Is Sharif here?

BOB chuckles I think that is why this is happening

Michael (Talwin): I'm having trouble with chat,but it's buffering eventually :)

BOB and no to Sharif being in yet

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): hello everyone!

BOB have not heard from him

Carissa: Hi Lemon!

Lisa: I'm not getting a lag

Carissa: No lag that I'm aware of on my end.

Carissa: Except self-induced.

BOB glad for that lisa hope that it will disapear for everyone

Michael (Talwin): lol

TMO: lag test

TMO: no lag here for me

Carissa: np

BOB brb going to refill as you plan your shifts

Lisa: what shifts?

Michael (Talwin): It's back now without issue, it was only a little bit :)

Lisa: we row

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh thank god, we're finally sleeping?

Lisa: no we just woke up

Licornah: I could spend two healing spells now so I have some for the day, but they won't get him to full

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, then how is Zayden still at 1hp?

Lisa: if all the priests give him an orison each he should be good maybe?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I have orison in Klooge but not here, so I have no idea how to use it, but yes?

Lisa: because he just woke up - Bob should hand out some sleep healing though

TMO: is the he still walking wounded, or can he recover today?

Lanek: doesn't he need sleep before he can handle getting healed?

Lisa: yes

Lisa: and we just woke up

Spring (Lanek): oh k

Lisa: Spring and Carissa should know the orison equation for how many points depending on what level you are etc

Carissa: Level +1 OR 8 HP total after a certain level, I believe.

Lisa: that's easy :)

Carissa: And he only has 23 HP total, not like it's a huge bar to fill. That said, we're still in the Dark Shire so one orison each should be good for him.

Lisa: that way no one loses too many spells right at beginning of the day

Carissa: yup

Indigo's health adjusted by +1

Carissa: Although wait until he gets here because if he can't play today, no use wasting spells :P

Bixi Fizzlebang's health adjusted by +1

Craigh's health adjusted by +2

Spring (Lanek): i don't remember but i think I had 9 for lev 7

Lanek's health adjusted by +2

BOB so overnight healing done

Lorie (Licornah): (Typically, priests learn a number of orisons as acolytes or students in order to hone their spellcasting skills and emphasize concepts, ideals, or phrases of particular importance to the faith. Because an orisons is not even on par with other 1st-level magic, a priest memorizes a number of individual orisons equal to three +1 per level (up to a maximum of nine) when he devotes a 1st-level spell slot to orison. )

BOB Yes to Carissa on not healing

BOB Until he is here

Orison

BOB (LINK)

<a href="http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.PR-Orison">(LINK)</a>

BOB There are all the details about Orison from the site

Lorie (Licornah): (that's what I pasted more or less.. I didn't include the evolutions)

BOB It is a single Level One spell, not the memorize three +1 per level not sure where that came from, I think that is a different edition

BOB but we are good to go for now

Lorie (Licornah): (it's in the 2nd sentence of the spell description)

BOB and so who wants to be the one to tempt fate with their roll

BOB Yes to Lorie, sorry

BOB just not reacting well tonight

Lorie (Licornah): (I promise I didn't make it up - and not trying to rule lawyer)

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Encounter roll?

BOB No I know

BOB Yes to Lemon

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Who had the good ones last time?

Lorie (Licornah): (not Sharif LOL)

Indigo: [d20 = 4]

Raelynn: CURSED.

Michael (Talwin): Well it sure as hell wasn't me

Licornah: [d20 = 10]

Michael (Talwin): lol

Lisa: well it wasn't a 1

Bixi Fizzlebang: [d20 = 15]

Lanek: [d20 = 10]

BOB Those are good for now

Lorie (Licornah): (Sorry, I use an Orison on Zayden before that gets away from us)

Lorie (Licornah): (give him 9 points please and thank you)

Lorie (Licornah): (I know he's one round behind.... but making the note)

BOB Will do that now for you Lorie

Zayden's health adjusted by +9

Youtargim : [Translation] Indigo did you feel that?

<font color="#000000">Indigo did you feel that?

[understood by: ]

Indigo: rows oblivious to his surroundings

Raelynn: Um, can you use your words we understand?

Startles

Raelynn: I don't speak math.

Youtargim: Sorry Rae

Youtargim: Indigo did you feel that?

Indigo: What?

Youtargim: Was thinking of the last time

Youtargim: We need to get away to deeper water

Indigo: okay

Youtargim: Everyone watch

Craigh: [TOWER] [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 18]

Indigo: I'll row harder

Youtargim: [SKILL] Seamanship [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 9]

Lanek: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 19]

Indigo: Watch what?

Indigo: rows harder

Raelynn: Oh, okay.

Lanek: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 14] [d20 = 1]

Raelynn: Wait deeper water?

Raelynn: Isn't that where worse things live?

Indigo: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 17) [SUCCESS by 10] [d20 = 7]

Youtargim: Yeah I hope they drop off

Raelynn: Er... what drops off??

Indigo: WHO?

Youtargim: Lamphreys

Indigo: Is this a magic thing again?

Licornah: Huh? The anchor already fell off

Youtargim: They are like eels

Licornah: what else could fall off?

Lanek: rows

Lisa (Indigo): lol

Raelynn: Well you can eat eels. I think.

Youtargim: But they stick to the ship

Youtargim: Oh I suppose you can eat these too

Raelynn: So can't we just... poke them off?

Indigo: Should we go check the sides of the ship?

Youtargim: Nods to Rae, yeap

Youtargim: If you want to go down into that water and wrestle with them

Craigh: Do we have any spears?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Sounds like a job for Talwin

Indigo: Licornah has a lance

Youtargim: That is why we need deeper water, so when we do go down we do not get tangled up in anything

Michael (Talwin): No

Michael (Talwin): lol

Michael (Talwin): Do you know what Lampreys look like? They are terrifying!

Youtargim: We can probably just keep going on

Licornah: :: frowns :: You don't eat those things.... they are poisonous

Youtargim: They are like leeches

Youtargim: They might slow us down depending on how many are down there

Michael (Talwin): (LINK)

Craigh: We can tie a rope around anyone who does go over so there's no chance of being left behind somehow.

Indigo: I'm rowing as fast as I can. Are you steering us to deeper water?

Youtargim: Yes

Raelynn: So is it worse to keep them on or worse to go into deep water where things worse than giant slugs live?

Licornah: Anyone know a mage?

Shrugs

Indigo: Nothing stuck to the ship is a good thing

Raelynn: Well okay.

Lanek: rows

Raelynn: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 11) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 6]

Licornah: zip zap zoom... no more lamphrey

Raelynn: rows

Youtargim: I like Howard as a mage, but can you cast underwater Howard?

Youtargim: I have not known any mages who could

Indigo: It's difficult as you have to say the words under water

Lisa (Indigo): drat

Howard Plum: It's difficult as you have to say the words under water

Lorie (Licornah): (Who has the lowest con - we should offer them up first LOL)

Howard Plum: I don't think it is impossible if perhaps I had a water breathing spell so I wouldn't drown by opening my mouth

Youtargim: Good point Howard

Lorie (Licornah): (doesn't everyone still have a water breathing potion?)

Howard Plum: Should I try?

Raelynn: That seems a bit more complicated than it's worth.

Lisa (Howard Plum): We do have a lot of them still

Craigh: Couldn't your magic missiles hit a lamprey underwater while you're up here?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): do I have a water breathing spell?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I do have a walk on water spell for sure... does that help?

Howard Plum: Only if I could see them to cast upon them

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I can go down under if you need me to

Craigh: I still have a Potion of Water Breathing if we need it

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Can I make my watery fist flick them away?

Lorie (Licornah): (Would we be better off just rowing away as suggested?) Unless they are the land sort, we should be able to ignore them.... right?

Howard Plum: walks over to the side of the ship to see if he can see anything from the surface

BOB Does Howard have observation?

Lisa (Howard Plum): of course not

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I do have water breathing!

Lisa (Howard Plum): that would be easy that way

BOB Lots of very pretty dark water for Howard

Howard Plum: [SKILL] Whistling/Humming [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 1] [d20 = 13]

Bixi Fizzlebang: I can give you water breathing for awhile Howard...but is it safe to go down there?

Youtargim: No

Howard Plum: Nothing is safe around here

Youtargim: Gestures to Halgert,

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Nods sadly

Howard Plum: I believe the question is will a lamprey attached to the hull damage it in some way?

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Yes

Youtargim: No

Howard Plum: Our ship has taken quite a lot of damage lately

Youtargim: Looks at Halgert

Howard Plum: I'm not sure how much more it can stand

Michael (Talwin): And we are jury rigging an anchor

Talwin: And we are jury rigging an anchor

Youtargim: She is a steady ship

Howard Plum: Well which is it?

Talwin: Yes, I think we need repairs and for her to rest

Youtargim: We can handle a lot more

Talwin: at our next port

Raelynn: How far until the next port?

Youtargim: Nods to Talwin, That is good

Craigh: Is there a wood spell that can grow spikes out of wood? We could cast that on the ship

Youtargim: Looks at Halgert

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: We need to reach Bywater

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I had thought it was two and a half days away

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: but this ship is faster, so I do not know

Youtargim: That is a very creative idea Craigh

Youtargim: That would be very useful in combat, but it would likely slow us down too

Youtargim: I like it though

Youtargim: How often can you do that?

Youtargim: Do the spikes break off?

Craigh: I can't do it at all. I was asking if there was such a spell. I know there are spells that warp wood, this is just a variation.

Youtargim: OH

Lorie (Licornah): (I'm trying to share Spike Growth, but not working)

Lanek: rows

Lorie (Licornah): (but I don't think that will help)

Bixi Fizzlebang: I can... theoretically... warp wood, but I've never tried it, and I worry that I might accidentally sink us instead

: Spike Growth

Lorie (Licornah): (I have Shape Wood too)

Howard Plum: I received contradictory answers to my question. If lampreys are attached to the ship will they damage it?

: Shape Wood

: Warp Wood

Lorie (Licornah): (in general, they want blood, but they have teeth, so yes, that could damage the boat)

TMO (Craigh): brb - sammich time

Youtargim: I say they will not harm the Buttercup, because we can keep on moving, they will create extra drag depending on how many are down there, so it will slow us down

User has gone AFK. (TMO)

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: They will stay with us until they are full and then will go look for the next meal

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Unless we drop off enough food for them to eat they will stay with us

Raelynn: We just need to get out of this area and then maybe things will improve.

Howard Plum: Full from eating our ship?

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: and if we go into the water, they will come after us

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: that is what we were doing with clearing the lines, to stop anything like that from coming after our catch

Indigo: keeps rowing

Bixi Fizzlebang: Wait... what if I summon insects? Maybe they will go chase the insects and leave us alone? What do they eat?

Indigo: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 17) [SUCCESS by 12] [d20 = 5]

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I have not seen them eat wood, but they could cause damage if they dig in too deep

Youtargim: Not the Buttercup

Youtargim: she has a good hull

Howard Plum: Can you send the insects under the water to them? I can't even see anything from the surface

Youtargim: That is intersting Bixi

Youtargim: Can you get them into the water

Youtargim: grins at Howard

Youtargim: Our magic general

Youtargim: or would that be General of Magic?

Bixi Fizzlebang: No

Bixi Fizzlebang: frowns

Craigh: Water beetles?

Howard Plum: coughs awkwardly

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It literally says in the spell "does not work underwater" lol

BOB smile

BOB That does mean you cannot cast it underwater

TMO (Craigh): start the spell above water, then the insects swim

BOB so have to stick to the surface

Howard Plum: It seems like we either have to go under water and kill them ourselves or just keep going and hope nothing terrible happens worse than all the terrible things that have already happened

Michael (Talwin): It's insects at the waterline, or wood. i know what I would go for if I was a Lamprey...

Michael (Talwin): I thought that was a very good idea carissa

BOB lemon

Michael (Talwin): sorry

Lisa (Howard Plum): how big is a lamprey?

Michael (Talwin): like I said, having a day

Lorie (Licornah): (I could call lightning but it might kill other stuffs in the water)

Michael (Talwin): my bad Lemon :)

Lisa (Howard Plum): if they are huge a bunch of little bugs wouldn't even be an appetizer

Michael (Talwin): couldn't hurt to try would it? I do like the lighting idea too

Lisa (Howard Plum): if they are attached to the ship I would worry it would explode our ship

BOB Small sized, so Giant for a Lamphrey

Michael (Talwin): Wood isn't very conductive, so theoretically should be fine as long as it has room to ground at the river bed

Lisa (Howard Plum): lightning scares me

Michael (Talwin): Ah

Michael (Talwin): I see. My bad :)

Carissa (Raelynn): yuuup

BOB Thunder doesn't scare me at all, Lightning, just a little

Michael (Talwin): Well, if we need to, I'll go down there and try to kill the buggers, but I really think we have other options we could try before the risky stuff

Carissa (Raelynn): (sorry was making food, but you have my full attention now)

Michael (Talwin): lol

Michael (Talwin): Not me casting, so I'm in the clear!

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Bixi Fizzlebang: Well... I mean, if anyone wants to jump in and size up the situation, I'm happy to give you water breathing. It lasts a few hours, so plenty of time if someon needs to go back down there

Raelynn: (LINK)

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2AC41dglnM">(LINK)</a>

Michael (Talwin): I'm just picturing pirrahna eating a person as they scream to be pulled back up....

Talwin: Sighs

Carissa (Raelynn): always use a buddy system!

Talwin: Alright Bixi. But before I go down, I want a CHAIN holding me to a safety crew

BOB Manwhile you are traveling ahead still

Michael (Talwin): MSHA Style :)

BOB rowing sailing etc

Raelynn: points to the anchor chain

Lisa (Howard Plum): No one should go down alone

Craigh: I can't think of a spell that does this, but if Howard needs to see the lampreys to hit them with magic missiles, is there anything that would let him see through or around the hull?

Talwin: Rolls eyes

Talwin: Not a bad Idea Raelynn

Talwin: Grumbles

Raelynn: smiles

Talwin: Who wants to go down with me?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Can we throw in a fish or something to make sure they're not like the carp? Do we have any fish left to throw?

Talwin: And seriously, a crew needs to be on deck ready to pull us up in an emergency

Talwin: frowns

Talwin: Don't know much about Lampreys Bixi.

Talwin: Shrugs

Raelynn: Zayden has fished enough. We should have some left, right?

Carissa (Raelynn): has no obs

Howard Plum: They will be like the carp in the way that they will try to kill anyone that goes down there

Talwin: I could take some fish down with me and see if it helps?

Talwin: Nods solumnly at Howard

Talwin: Yeah, that's what I'm trying to avoid

Bixi Fizzlebang: I just... don't think it would be great for anyone to lose any limbs. Or any more, as the case may be

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oooh, that's a good idea. Distraction bait!

Craigh: Wait... why go down with a fish?

Talwin: Why dont we repel down and a few feet from the waterline throw out some bait

Craigh: We have fishing poles!

Talwin: Smiles

Talwin: Great Idea Craigh!

Youtargim: Craigh you are a genius

Howard Plum: We cannot touch Zayden's poles though

Youtargim: Just be careful

Raelynn: Okay but don't tell Zayden anyone touched them.

Youtargim: I mean

Talwin: Meanwhile Zayden can relieve himself overboard and see if that disturbs the lampreys enough to let go from sheer shock!

Raelynn: nods and points to Howard

Howard Plum: I'm not touching them after last time!

Youtargim: there are not any sharks around here right?

Youtargim: That is how you get sharks, blood in the water

Raelynn: shrugs

Youtargim: I have never heard of fresh water sharks before

Raelynn: I only know land things not ...sea things? River things?

Youtargim: but this has been a hard trip

Talwin: I don't mind useing the poles, really guys, if it came down to it, you could just let go of the pole

Craigh: Just tell Zayden it was a water zombie, came up and used his pole

Youtargim: IF Talwin lets go of one of Zayden's poles, I will not be responsible

Talwin: Do we have any fish that we could gut or bleed a tad? I'll throw it in the water and we could test it out?

Howard Plum: chuckles

Talwin: I'll buy him a new one

Talwin: Grumbles

Youtargim: Don't you owe him one already?

Talwin: No

Youtargim: Who des?

Youtargim: Does

Talwin: I don't know, but i've never touched one of Zayden's "Poles" before now

Talwin: So not my concern

Raelynn: for the fishing poles: (LINK)

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otCpCn0l4Wo">(LINK)</a>

Bixi Fizzlebang: Look, we can buy him new ones soon, I think he'd prefer getting to our destination in one piece

Howard Plum: If you put a fish on the line I can supply some blood

BOB As this is going on you have sucessfully rowed right through other possible encounters

Talwin: Thanks Howard

Michael (Talwin): and GM

Lisa (Howard Plum): nice

Talwin: Grabs one of Zayden's poles carefully

Talwin: inspects it

Raelynn: Blood from where??

Howard Plum: my hand

Talwin: Gods Howard

Talwin: We aren't doing that

Howard Plum: takes out his dagger

Talwin: NO!

Howard Plum: Not a lot

Talwin: How about none at all. Let's try the damn fish before you start gutting yourself yeah?

Youtargim: Smear it all over the fish

Raelynn: Gut a fish instead?

Talwin: Goddamnit Yout

Talwin: We aren't cutting ourselves

Talwin: At least for this shit

Lanek: grumbles

Talwin: Gods above and below

Lanek: rows

Lanek: rows

Talwin: Shakes head in frustration

Raelynn: OH! Or maybe borrow some of Zayden's old clothes? They probably still have blood on them from yesterday if these things don't care about freshness.

Talwin: Thanks for the fish

Talwin: Nods Appreciateviely

Howard Plum: Well if you change your mind I can do that

Talwin: Hooks the fish on the Pole

BOB So Long and Thanks for all the Fish

Lanek: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 9] [d20 = 6]

Talwin: I don't like the idea of cutting without a damn good reason

Michael (Talwin): I don't like the idea of cutting without a damn good reason

Raelynn: quietly sits there contemplating new beauty routines.

Michael (Talwin): lol Rae

Spring (Lanek): i do better with obs than boating

BOB So Talwin drops over the dead bloody fish into the water, letting it trail down

Carissa (Raelynn): read that as body at first and was concerned I missed something

Michael (Talwin): (he did do a succesfful Obs, so hopefully that helps)

BOB and everyone made every check this time so

BOB you feel a gentle rocking as the ship adjusts to lighter weight on the port side

Michael (Talwin): How big were those damn things!

Michael (Talwin): Glad I didn't go down there. Holy smokes

BOB and apparently at least one or more lamphreys have let go to go after the fish

BOB They are the size of Indigo

Michael (Talwin): Cuts the line in preparation of....

Michael (Talwin): WHAT~

Michael (Talwin): Bob your sick!

Michael (Talwin): lol

Talwin: Cuts the line in preparation of a new fish

Talwin: Next fish please

Talwin: We'll try the Starboard Side

Lanek: shocked face

Talwin: Shrugs

Talwin: I wasn't going to try and reel it back in, the fish will keep them father away from the boat then attracting them back to it

Talwin: Nods in Thanks

Talwin: Nods in Thanks

Talwin: When handed the next fish

Talwin: Carefully attaches it, strolls over to Starboard. Need my buddy!

Talwin: Waits for his buddy

Michael (Talwin): Whoever wants to be Talwins spotter

Michael (Talwin): (Int the interest of keeping things moving, I'll assume someone is)

Talwin: Tosses the next fish over the railing and gently lowers the line down

Talwin: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 18) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 13]

BOB smiles

Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 11] [d20 = 2]

Lisa (Indigo): Howard has no obs

Indigo: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 10) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 11]

Raelynn: daydreams about being on land again.

BOB I was thinking he was asking for more blood

Michael (Talwin): He can just keep attached to me lol

Lisa (Indigo): oh Howard can do that

Michael (Talwin): rolls eyes in real life LOL

Michael (Talwin): So you tell me what you need bob and I'll make it happen :P

BOB Talwin is on his way to being a vampire, he has a place in the Mist, he has a willing servant donating blood, and is friends with Branwyn

Michael (Talwin): (Actually, could Howard reasonably pull Talwin back?)

Michael (Talwin): LOLOLOL

Michael (Talwin): What?! Bran isn't a vampire! I mean, she associates with a couple but.....

Michael (Talwin): Lisa? Thoughts on that?

TMO (Craigh): Brer looms up behind Talwin and stakes him through the back, just to be sure

BOB LOL

Michael (Talwin): LOL

Michael (Talwin): Thanks for that TMO

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Michael (Talwin): jeeze

Michael (Talwin): What?! Bran isn't a vampire! I mean, she associates with a couple but.....

Michael (Talwin): Sorry, mouse drag issue

Michael (Talwin): Ignore that last speech bubble

BOB and yes after two or three more dropping in bloody fish you manage to dislodge the last of the Lamphreys

The time is 8:00 AM

Spring (Lanek): hahaha

Michael (Talwin): Hurray! Great idea guys about bait andusing the fishing poles! I never even thought of that :)

Lisa (Indigo): very good plan Michael!

Talwin: It wasn't mine! :)

Michael (Talwin): It wasn't mine! :)

Spring (Lanek): nice !

Michael (Talwin): I just kept it implemented in a timely fashion :P

Lisa (Indigo): Well good ideas all around and execution

Michael (Talwin): :) I got the warm and fuzzies :)

Lisa (Indigo): :D

Michael (Talwin): So...who wants to take a whack at the Death Dice?

Carissa (Raelynn): nicely done!

BOB You actually have made it through the next three encounter

The time is 10:00 AM

The time is 12:00 PM

The time is 2:00 PM

Michael (Talwin): WOW!

Lisa (Indigo): out of the dark shire yet?

BOB That is what I am checking

BOB trying to at least

Michael (Talwin): Maybe I should rethink this talking thing to avoid encounters....

Michael (Talwin): :)

BOB I was able to open Google Earth that is a good thing

BOB and LOL with Michael

BOB and yes to Lisa you are out of the Dark Shire and the bank on the north side (port side) of the lake is more pleasent.

Talwin: Sighs in relief

Talwin: That stretch had me quite anxious guys

Raelynn: woo

Carissa (Raelynn): !

BOB There is a ferry service that makes the 140 mile trip from Bywater upstream and into Terraguard that carries some trade back and forth across the river. There are some small clandestine and informal docking ports for other trade traffic going up or down stream to other ports. One such port is Undertowers which has its own solution to keeping river traffic stops to a minimum.

Talwin: I'm glad we made it though with only a lost anchor and some ship damage

Michael (Talwin): When you say small clandestine, you mean smuggling?

BOB To let you know what you might encounter along this stretch of lake/river shore

Michael (Talwin): Just clearing that up early on

Michael (Talwin): ?

BOB You can intrepret it as you wish

Michael (Talwin): Gee thanks bob :)

BOB But to remind you once you get to Bywater, you will have that final portion of the leg, upriver to get to Dryads Lair, 140 miles

Michael (Talwin): So I'd ask that we stop at a somewhat...reputable port for repairs and proper anchor. Or at least attempt that. Is that okay with everyone?

Carissa (Raelynn): yup

BOB 36 miles per day

Michael (Talwin): Ah, so close but so far. Thank you bob for that update. Didn't realize we still had that much to go

TMO (Craigh): Bob - don't need this immediately, but I do need to know what the custom is for naming the Unique Monsters of a race. There aren't any in the Monster Manual. For example, the different breeds of Baatezu are Baatezu Least Lemure, Baatezu Lesser Barbazu, Baatezu Greater Pit Fiend, etc. How should I name the Baatezu Lords, like Asmodeus?

Michael (Talwin): Lot of talking ahead of us...

BOB You have gone HUNDREDS of miles already

BOB Will check that later TMO, this is a busy weekend however

Indigo: if we go to Bort's Beach directly will be shorter yes?

BOB tomorrow is the Murder Mystery at Main

Michael (Talwin): No I know. I'm sorry Bob. I just meant that 140 miles just is very far by boat when rowing. What we've done is quite impressive in my humble opinion. Don't remember the last time we traveled so far

BOB No to Lisa

TMO (Craigh): np - I still have to finish the regular devils.

Michael (Talwin): NO Bob!

Michael (Talwin): NO

Michael (Talwin): LOL

Lisa (Indigo): why?

Michael (Talwin): Ah sorry, thought he was making a reference ot the Murder Party where we got seriousl yhurt

BOB That 140 number is for the towns on the western side of the penisula

Michael (Talwin): Was going to have us attend another one :)

BOB so Borts is about the same ammount

Michael (Talwin): Ah. Okay

BOB grins with Michael, is at the library, then on Sunday is Canvassing Board for the Elections

Craigh: but if we go to Dryads Lair and then to Borts it will take longer than going directly to Borts?

BOB is why I wanted to start those stories for others to participate in

Lisa (Indigo): yes

Michael (Talwin): Oh boy. I'd say have fun, but the last time I was dealing with election stuff, some hardcore people were making me nervious

BOB You are sailing from Bywater to Borts Beach

BOB that is the 140 miles,

BOB from Dryads Lair City would be longer

Lisa (Indigo): ok

Lisa (Indigo): and there is a port in Bywater where Indigo can do some repairs?

Michael (Talwin): Perfect. But, so far, it "seems" that we are all in agreement with a stop at a proper port for repairs?

BOB Yes

Michael (Talwin): Point to Lisa :)

Lisa (Indigo): so we just need to get to Bywater :)

BOB Bywater is the third largest population center in Gold Hills, the only real port

Michael (Talwin): Great! Let's start the conversation train!

Lisa (Indigo): lol

Talwin: But in reality, would you like us to Roll bob?

Michael (Talwin): But in reality, would you like us to Roll bob?

Michael (Talwin): Or...

Lisa (Indigo): It's only 2 pm not time for watches yet

Michael (Talwin): Out of curiosity bob, has Zayden been getting any restful sleep for HP?

Indigo: [ATTACK (M)] Shortsword [THACO(13)] [EFFECTS +1] [AC: 3 ] [d20+5 = 10]

Talwin: Perks up

Talwin: You want to spar Indigo?

Indigo: there's an attack roll sitting in my bottom drawer - no clue how or why

Lisa (Indigo): ooc

Michael (Talwin): LOL

Indigo: I think maybe we should just keep rowing

Spring (Lanek): hahaha

BOB Yes for Zayden

Talwin: Nods slightly crestfallen but understanding

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Talwin: Nods slightly crestfallen but understanding

Talwin: No you are right

TMO (Craigh): you probably saved it at some point Lisa

BOB You can drag things to the Hot Bar and use them

Raelynn: You can arm wrestle later! It's not dire yet.

Indigo: laughs

Talwin: I can actually help with more rowing. I need something mindless to do

TMO (Craigh): I have Alertness and Obs in mine, although I never remember to use them from there

Talwin: Grins

Talwin: Hops on the Oars

BOB you could as an example I think have Rae target Youtargim with a Beguilement check and store it there

BOB then use it when you want

Michael (Talwin): Huh. Didn't know we could do that

BOB I have Youtargim detect noice roll there

Carissa (Raelynn): lmao trying to give ideas?

Michael (Talwin): I'll need to look that up

Youtargim: [SKILL] Detect Noise [PERCENT:Detect Noise] (vs. Target 70) [SUCCESS by 24] [d100 = 46]

BOB You can at least store checks there if not targeted things

BOB So Observation, etc

Howard Plum: [SKILL] Whistling/Humming [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 9] [d20 = 5]

Lanek: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 9] [d20 = 6]

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

Indigo: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 10) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 15]

Raelynn: [SKILL] Singing [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 16]

BOB I would have thought Lemon had Bixi's Botny checks that way

Raelynn: lightly sings to herself at hearing the whistling

Licornah: [SKILL] Observation (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 10]

Spring (Lanek): whoops . one click , not two

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): sorry, I've been on hold for 20 minutes, I need to find somewhere else to order food now

BOB But it is the afternoon and you still have many miles to get to Bywater as far as you can tell

Michael (Talwin): Dear Lord! You have the Patience of a Saint Lemon! Five minutes and I'm onto the next place lol

TMO (Craigh): Saint Lemon

Michael (Talwin): LOL

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Hey! That is Crignors Cliff!

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): That was 20 minutes of trying to cancel.

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: WOW How did we get here so far

Talwin: Picks up head

Raelynn: What?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I placed the order an hour and a half ago

Talwin: What?

Talwin: Oh dear Lemon

Carissa (Raelynn): ouch

Michael (Talwin): Oh dear Lemon

Michael (Talwin): I'm sorry you had to deal with that. Man

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: That place there, (Points to the shore at a small cliff with a split down the middle that is passing )

Talwin: Huh

Talwin: It's certainly an interesting landmark

Michael (Talwin): Anything special about it?

Talwin: Anything special about it?

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Legend has it that the Stone Giant Crignor was trying to kill Gilgim, a hin ranger

Lanek: rows

Talwin: Raises eyebrows

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: and he split the cliff in half trying to get him

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Dang, it's an hour for my other go-to place. Brb, trying to find something to eat in my house. Like a grownup.

User has gone AFK. (Lemon)

Talwin: Big damn giant

Talwin: Did the ranger die?

Carissa (Raelynn): (guess I won't ask your sword's thoughts, lol)

Michael (Talwin): LOL

-> Indigo: Yes Indigo has heard of Gilgim the Ranger, a famous hero legend around Gold Hills

Indigo: It's hard for giants to hit us sometimes them being so big and all

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I always heard that he escaped while the giant was trying to dig his sword back out of the cliff

Talwin: Nods in contemplation

Indigo: Gilgim is a hero and famous

Talwin: Twists to Indigo

Talwin: I've...never heard of him. I suppose his antics go beyond the Mountain that is cut in half?

Talwin: Grins

-> Indigo: feel free to invent other things

Indigo: He escaped into the woods where he met half a dozen trolls that Golgim battled all by himself and won!

Indigo: The giant never found him

Talwin: Wow

Talwin: Impressed

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Little Hin pretend to be Gilgim when battling the big people

Indigo: It's said if you climb up the cliff you can find shards of the giant sword that broke off

Talwin: Really!

Talwin: ?

Talwin: Can...can we stop on the way back?

Indigo: I'm not a good climber so I haven't done it

Talwin: I'm not either, but...to see the sword

Talwin: Awestruck

Indigo: But merchants try to sell shards they say came from the cliff

Talwin: Skeptical

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I would say we are less than a day from Bywater now

Raelynn: You have your own giant sword.

Talwin: Yeah, but what they say and what is real...

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: at the speed you have this ship moving

Talwin: Nods at Raelyn

Talwin: Indeed

Raelynn: Is there an inn there?

Talwin: Smiles

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: at Bywater?

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: There are Inns that are only for Humans and other Big People

Indigo: That's good news Halgert

Michael (Talwin): Apologies, need to step away for just a moment because my dogs are really getting on my nerves

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: You might even see an elf there too

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: The Gnomes stay to themselves unless they are trading things

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: There are a hundred or more Big People overall

Raelynn: What qualifies as big people...?

BOB Indigo can make a Wisdom and or Intelligence check as you see fit

Indigo: [CHECK] Intelligence (vs. Target 11) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 11]

Indigo: Everyone bigger than me and Bixi

Lisa (Indigo): that was Indigo's answer without waiting for bob

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: The Mayor has always been fair

BOB grins with Lisa, that is what I was hoping for

Raelynn: Oh. Okay.

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: We pay our taxes, we serve in the militia

Raelynn: is just wanting to know if there is a bed for her to sleep in.

User is back. (Lemon)

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: If we are lucky there will be an elven minstrel from the woods in to tell stories

Raelynn: nods and listens politely.

Indigo: That would be nice!

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: The Castle is a welcome sight, you know you are home then

Indigo: I've never stayed in Bywater other than passing by. Who's castle is it?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ugh, computer issues, brb again

'Lemon' disconnected

-> Indigo: Indigo would think of the other side of the hill, where the green fields lead down to the port rather than the castle guarding it, at least in the old days of Gold Hills thought before he went out into the wide world away from the comfortable lands

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: That is the Mayor's Seat

Indigo: I think about the port and the ships and not the mayor stuff

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I can see why

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: You are one of the best hin sailors I have seen

Indigo: smiles

Indigo: Thank you!

Indigo: Are Bixi and I going to have to stay at a different inn than the rest of our friends?

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I know there are several that cater to mixed crowds

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Don't you have family to stay with though?

Indigo: Not close enough

Michael (Talwin): Back, sorry about that

Youtargim: We have not stayed in an Inn in a while, it will be good to get a nice bath right Rae

Indigo: And it will be hard for me to repair the ship if I go visit

Raelynn: Oh very much. We could already use one.

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Really? I have not known a Hin to not have at least a second cousin to have a second breakfast with

Talwin: Well...how far Indigo?

Talwin: It's not like you get to visit that often

BOB checking for you Lisa

Talwin: It's up to you of course, but we've come so far, I would be remiss if you didn't get an opportunity....

Talwin: We can always keep an eye on things if you would like

BOB 80 miles from Bywater to Crickhollow as the crow flies

Lisa (Indigo): yeah that's too far

Michael (Talwin): We could stop on the way back?

Michael (Talwin): But totally up to you :)

Michael (Talwin): Just trying to be a good friend to Indigohaha

Michael (Talwin): :)

Indigo: It's okay. I've been gone six years plus to them and so it would be hard to visit for a short time and leave

BOB 12

Talwin: Nods slowly

Indigo: I will have to make a trip when I can stay a while

Talwin: Okay. Just let us know if you change your mind

Talwin: Smiles

Lisa (Indigo): been 12 years since he was made royal bounder?

Indigo: Thank Talwin

BOB Yeap that was before starting on building Dragon Fen, that was 6 years then 6 years in the elf lands

Michael (Talwin): And possible undead treants.....

Carissa (Raelynn): trie

Carissa (Raelynn): *true

Michael (Talwin): I seriously don't mind. i prefer the ship, but am like Lisa here

Spring (Lanek): i prefer ship

Carissa (Raelynn): coin flip?

Michael (Talwin): It looks like four on the ship so that's majortiy?

Michael (Talwin): Sure if you want to flip I guess

Carissa (Raelynn): high is ship

Raelynn: [d20 = 17]

Carissa (Raelynn): so of COURSE I roll high now

Michael (Talwin): Alrighty

Carissa (Raelynn): but if it broke the curse...

Raelynn: [d20 = 14]

Carissa (Raelynn): maybe!

Michael (Talwin): Let us pray! :)

Licornah: Licornah cast a spell NOT memorized.

Licornah: [CAST] Wyvern Watch

Licornah: [SAVE VS] Wyvern Watch

Raelynn: [d20 = 6]

Carissa (Raelynn): well that's kind of even so I'll assume so; done rolling for now

Lisa (Indigo): ship is fine

Lorie (Licornah): (Umm, well, trying to cast Wyveryn Watch and will toss another Orison to Zayden)

'Michael' disconnected

BOB Yes to Lorie another 9 to Zayden

'Michael' connected

Zayden's health adjusted by +9

BOB and so you are camping on the bank, with Youtargim and who on the ship?

BOB Or sorry

BOB I got that wrong

Carissa (Raelynn): whichever, but dice said ship

Michael (Talwin): Sorry about that. Internet issues booted me. I'm back

BOB Wyvern Watch on the Ship Lorie?

Carissa (Raelynn): will we be able to move around?

Lorie (Licornah): (Yes, I thought that is where we ended up)

BOB I mean where on the ship Lorie, sorry

Lorie (Licornah): (Since art isn't my skill, generally there)

BOB Gotcha, a 5 or 10 foot radius?

Licornah: (10 please)

Michael (Talwin): I can take first watch

Michael (Talwin): Anyone want to join me?

Lorie (Licornah): (down a bit to include Zayden who is still injured)

BOB Like that Lorie?

Licornah: I can take first watch

TMO (Craigh): Craigh can do first or third, either is fine

Carissa (Raelynn): can take third then

Talwin: Nods

Spring (Lanek): 1st or 3rd

Talwin: I can join you

TMO (Craigh): technically he didn't cast any spells, so any is good really

Carissa (Raelynn): since Rae is on third, toss one more Orison on Zayden to full heal

BOB That is a 10 foot radius centered on Zayden

Carissa (Raelynn): actually you can split it, fill him and give the other 3 to Indigo

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is there still room on 3rd? Pretty sure Talwin insulted Bixi last time they were on watch together :P

Lorie (Licornah): (Okay, it looks like it got farther away from him...)

Lisa (Indigo): Indigo will do 2nd

Lorie (Licornah): (I'm also going to use my once a day ability to cast negative plan protection)

BOB I can shift forward or backwards as you like Lorie

Carissa (Raelynn): so far it's Talwin, Licornah (1), Indigo (2), Rae, Bixi (3), and Craigh... whichever he prefers.

Lisa (Indigo): Does that negate bad PC planning sessions?

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Lorie (Licornah): (I sent a snip of what I see :: shrug :: no worries BOB)

TMO (Craigh): looks ike we're short 1 on 2

Lisa (Indigo): Howard can go on 1

Spring (Lanek): uh

Lanek: 1st or 3rd

Spring (Lanek): 1st or 3rd

Lisa (Indigo): Zayden just found out someone touched his rod

BOB Is that better Lorie?

Lisa (Indigo): he is exploding on the decl

Carissa (Raelynn): (yout can join Indigo on 2nd if needed)

Michael (Talwin): LOL

Lorie (Licornah): (Oh, that's neat BOB.... I like it)

Spring (Lanek): or 2nd ha

Carissa (Raelynn): lol or that

Spring (Lanek): i forgot i don't need 1st or 3rd

BOB There are a bunch of Spell Templates we have not used yet, for fireball, etc. this is the standard 10 foot radius spell template

Carissa (Raelynn): So Howard, Talwin, Licornah (1), Indigo, Lanek, Yout? (2), Bixi, Craigh, Rae (3)

Carissa (Raelynn): lol fair

BOB no Halgert?

Carissa (Raelynn): oh toss him on 2nd

Carissa (Raelynn): He and Indigo can bond more about things I guess? Unless he wants to bond with someone else

Lorie (Licornah): (Yeah, happy to have him on any watch)

Carissa (Raelynn): No no I want to see you talk to yourself.

Carissa (Raelynn): It's entertaining.

BOB LOL

Lorie (Licornah): (How are you? I'm great...How are you? Also great? So, how about that weather?)

BOB Do not want to take away from you talking with the group

Carissa (Raelynn): As long as one of them is on 2nd, the other can surprise another watch.

BOB LOL Lorie

BOB Quote

Michael (Talwin): LOL

BOB so first watch and GO

Licornah: :: weaving away ::

Talwin: Begins by stretching before doing a patrol on the Deck

Michael (Talwin): As approaches Licornah, nods politely. "What are you weaving? It's very pretty"

Talwin: As approaches Licornah, nods politely. "What are you weaving? It's very pretty"

Licornah: I'm working on a blanket... well, I hope it will be a blanket

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Can you make nets too?

Licornah: Maybe in might end up as a cover up

Talwin: Cocks head

Talwin: Coverup?

Licornah: :: ponders :: I'm not nautical by nature, but I might be able to figure it up

Licornah: :: thinks :: Cape?

Talwin: Ah

Talwin: Nods

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Was thinking if you could make nets, blessed nets, something magical you could sell a LOT of them

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Lots of magical things just disapear

Talwin: Grins "But then she'd be rich and coulnd't be with our merry band of adventurers"

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: but if you can weave something real then enchant it

Licornah: :: ponders turning over an ntrepreneurial spirit

Talwin: Sees her contemplation, and smile falls as he backtracks

Licornah: Then I would give up being attacked by leeches and kidnapped by spiders... Hmmmm

Talwin: Er, of course if that would make you happy Licornah, I was just making fun

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Your group has been wonderful, you seem to have spells all the time

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: but us normal fisherman do not get the chance at that

Licornah: :: ponders sitting on a pile of coins like a dragon :: Could be interesting

Talwin: We have to be Halgert. I can swing a sword real nice, but can't do any magic worth a damn

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: a magical net that never tangled would be amazing

Talwin: Can you weave a fleece made of golden threat?

Talwin: Chuckles to himself

Licornah: :: thinks :: I have never tried that either

Licornah: I grew up on a farm... nothing so elaborate

Talwin: Raises his eyebrows in suprise

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: There is not a lot of magic around town, at least not the flashy kind

Talwin: I...didn't know that about you

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Yes, that is what I am used to

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: farm magic

Talwin: Flashy magic is a great way to make yourself a target

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: calves birthed without problems

Licornah: :: thinks :: My Father used to have the priests bless our crops

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: crops just growing

Talwin: Nods in agreement. That is good magic to have Halgert

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: the ale a bit tarter

Licornah: Cider?

Talwin: For your community, that is a great value correct?

Talwin: Oh...Cider

Talwin: Dreamy expression

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I do not know that sort of thing,

Talwin: I haven't had that in....many years

Licornah: Made of ... apples, right?

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I just appreciate that it can happen in town because we are safe

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: the Hin call it the comfortable lands for a reason

Licornah: Your town has gnomes?

Talwin: Almost bitterly

Licornah: or Dwarves?

Licornah: Or both?

Talwin: Nowhere is perfectly safe, even in a town Halgert

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Dwarves are strange

Licornah: That is so true, Talwin

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: there is a small group of gnomes that live on the northeast side of the Hill

Talwin: Perks up

Talwin: Have you met any dwarves in person?

Licornah: Danger can be anywhere and from anyone...

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I think I have seen some from a distance

Talwin: Nods to Licornah

Talwin: Indeed

Lorie (Licornah): (or anything, Houses with tongues are really scary IMHO)

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: There was a group of bearded hooded people once along the edge of the Dark Shire

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I saw them from the great water

Licornah: Maybe they wanted to be left in peace

Talwin: Shudders

Talwin: I didn't like being near the Dark Shire

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: It is dangerous

Talwin: Indigo pointed out where a river led deep into the Underdark

Talwin: I don't know if I ever could go there

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: We go there for the chance to catch things that are not near our part of the great water

Talwin: Nods solumnly

Talwin: Nods solumnly

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I do not know anyone who has gone up that river and returned

Licornah: :: frowns :: The Underdark is a dangerous place for certain.

Talwin: Yes, I think you know exactly how dangerous it can be

Howard Plum: Branwyn wished to have a summer holiday there but we never managed it

Talwin: Chokes on air

Talwin: "What?"

Licornah: Maybe they encountered Drow or Lloth's handmaidens

BLINKS

Licornah: Spiders have voices to her

Talwin: "A...Holiday!?"

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: What are Drow? or lloth?

Howard Plum: She was quite bored with her ambassador duties and thought it would be entertaining for her and Tiberius

Talwin: .........Yeah, actually that sounds like Bran

Talwin: My bad

Licornah: Drow are like my kind, but darker skinned and in many cases, darker souls

Howard Plum: Oh many people go on holiday in the summer in Dryads Lair

Talwin: Not to the UnderDark Howard!

Licornah: Lloth is one of their deities, she's known to take the form of a spider... as are many of her handmaidens

Licornah: She's cruel

Howard Plum: laughs

Halgert, Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Spiders are ok I guess

Licornah: I can't imagine a "holiday" in the Underdark but :: shrug :: everyone is different I suppose

Talwin: And nods at Licornah. "I had heard that.Not about the Spider bit, that's new to me, but a darker.....soul is probably good enough description"

Licornah: Not all drow are evil... there is one Qilue, of the Sisters, who rebelled against Lloth

Talwin: One day she's going to get bored and just decide to conquer the world, I swear

Talwin: Shakes head

Talwin: Really Licornah? I didn't know that either.

Carissa (Raelynn): (Talwin met Drow in Birnham)

BOB Those on watch can roll Observation

Licornah: :: shrugs :: I haven't met her...

Michael (Talwin): (Yes, but don't really remember LOL)

Carissa (Raelynn): (when he tackled the sorcerous)

Licornah: [SKILL] Observation (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 17]

BOB Thank you

Lorie (Licornah): (Qilue is my 2nd favorite 7 sister)

Carissa (Raelynn): (*sorceress? whatever that word)

Michael (Talwin): Bob, can you please roll Obs for me? It won't let me

BOB Yes to Lorie, I ran a story arc based on MacBeth

Carissa (Raelynn): (with the killer shadows and the dragon)

Michael (Talwin): I swear I know how to do it, i've done it like three times tongith

Michael (Talwin): It was actually really good to!

Lorie (Licornah): (( MacBeth :: dies ::) (then laughs)

Licornah: :: continues weaving pondering Lloth and Drow and then thinks about home ::

Michael (Talwin): Hm.I may have to log out and back in. My dice are giving me issues

Raelynn: I could not, but didn't play with it long

Lorie (Licornah): (I can't set effects without purchasing the dice in my menu)

BOB Do you see the Custom Dice Rolls in Options?

BOB Do not purchase anything yet

Lisa (Howard Plum): yes

BOB There have been 5 updates this week about graphics stuff

Lanek: grumbles

BOB Welcome back again Michael

BOB Craigh is up

BOB Lanek is up

Michael (Talwin): hey i'm having some serious internet issues bob

Lanek: paces, rubbing his neck

Michael (Talwin): I may drop off again, I'm so sorry

Michael (Talwin): test

BOB We can forgive you... IF you PM me in Discord your address so I can finally mail you your medal

Talwin: I just moved to Utah, so...

Indigo: You should take it easy Lanek. You've been rowing really hard

Michael (Talwin): I'll give you a PO box :)

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): So you have an address now

Michael (Talwin): LOL

BOB They have mail in Utah, Spring can attest

Michael (Talwin): LOLOLOL

Michael (Talwin): Not when i don't own the property

Michael (Talwin): But it should work out. I'll get you an address :)

BOB As long as you get to enjoy this

BOB Lemon showed it off to her kids

Spring (Lanek): hahaha

Michael (Talwin): haha :)

Michael (Talwin): Promise I'll discord you it tomorrow :)

BOB Thank you

BOB now Lanek, Indigo and Craigh

Michael (Talwin): You've only been storing it for...almost a year now?

Lorie (Licornah): (congrats on your relocation, I think? )

BOB Second watch

Michael (Talwin): LOL

Lorie (Licornah): (Spring might be able to give you tips)

BOB laughs with Lorie

BOB Exactly

Spring (Lanek): he's been a utahn longer than I have

BOB Spring is the expert at moving and relocating

Lorie (Licornah): (It's like when someone does their hair, you wait for them to tell you if they are happy)

'Michael' disconnected

Spring (Lanek): there is that

'Michael' connected

BOB Indigo and Criagh can take it away

BOB and Lanek will interupt

Spring (Lanek): i use my work address when possible

BOB and force you to answer

Spring (Lanek): and if not , the ups store

BOB TMO?

BOB Maybe Lanek needs to take the lead?

Craigh: Craigh sits down on a crate and watches the water's surface.

Michael: (And thanks Lorie :) It is a good thing! I'm fully remote worker now and am living as far from people as possible. I'm surrounded by an 80 acre dead zone that has no one near me. I'm building out a Shipping Container home)

Craigh: Is it always this dangerous to make this trip, Indigo?

Lanek: so cool!

Michael: (Also, sorry if someone asked me something. Dropped off again)

Spring (Lanek): so cool!

Indigo: Pretty much. We had a lot of trouble didn't we?

Michael: I'm having fun Spring. No idea what I'm doing, but having fun lol

Craigh: How does this place get any trade done at all? Is every ship armed stem to stern with guards?

Indigo: Think they don't

BOB The Comfortable Lands, they do not need outside things

Indigo: Terraguard trades with itself and in the other direction

Lorie (Licornah): (Definitely congrats then... )

Spring (Lanek): you're not in iron county are you?

Craigh: Wonder how it even got founded in the first place, if there's this much danger right next door.

Indigo: Rivers Bend probably trades in the opposite direction

Lanek: humph

Michael: nah, Piute, but literally a mile away is the border for Sevier county :)

BOB (LINK)

<a href="http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.GoldHills">(LINK)</a>

BOB Link to the conceptual map of Gold Hills

Michael: TY bob.

Spring (Lanek): oh okay. it would have been hilarious if our lands were close

Indigo: Gold Hills doesn't do a lot of river traffic except Bywater and Halgert fishing in the Dark Shire is probably pretty rare

Michael: LOL. i should come visit sometime haha

Michael: (high risk high reward for fishing near there it seems)

Indigo: Between you and me, it wasn't really smart to take a small boat like that out here

TMO (Craigh): just to confirm, because I'm terrible at this world's geography for some reason, we are currently going from Rivers Bend to Dryads Lair, correct?

Lisa (Indigo): yes

Craigh: I'm not sure it was smart bringing a large boat out here either.

Lisa (Indigo): Dryads Lair is part of Terraguard

Craigh: Craign chuckles.

Indigo: laughs

Craigh: You've been out here before though, right?

BOB Uploaded the Google Maps version of Gold Hills to the Discord just in case anyone does not have that already loaded up as you are looking at things. :)

Indigo: Sailing through? Just when we went to Dryads Lair years ago

Indigo: We had wind spells then

Indigo: Shi was good with that

Craigh: Well, Dryads Lair too. Rivers Bend is the farthest I've been out this way, and even that was only once before.

Lanek: pulls a small flute out and practices finger placement without blowing

Lanek: muttering to him

Craigh: I've heard about it, but some of it could have been exaggeration.

Indigo: Guilds and things if you belong to those

Lanek: self

Craigh: Craigh nods.

Craigh: I think my memberships are at least recognized out here.

Craigh: May not be very useful.

Indigo: Dunno. We could be here a while

Indigo: Sword training takes a long time

Craigh: Yeah... I'm pretty sure those weren't there earlier...

Lisa (Indigo): no one right next to you and one on Bixi

BOB #2 adn #3 sorry no cool names

TMO (Craigh): I'm going to make A Call, and go for this one at his feet and leave the one on Bixi to someone with an actual combat skill that can harm it

BOB Youtargim runs down and SLASHES the remaining weeds to pieces

Youtargim: I heard a haunted melody then woke to the sounds of swords so I ran to where you were Indigo knowing you would be in the middle of everything

Indigo: You didn't have to get up

Indigo: laughs

Youtargim: Weeds

Youtargim: Did they grow magically?

Indigo: Well it's almost time for 3rd watch anyway

Indigo: Don't know. They just showed up

Youtargim: So magic

Craigh: They came up over the sides

Indigo: Maybe they liked Lanek's music too

Youtargim: Moving?

Youtargim: Yeah maybe Lanek summoned them

Lanek: hope not

Craigh: Craigh nods

Youtargim: It was good music

Youtargim: powerful

Lanek: not gonna test it

Youtargim: I did not know you could do magic Lanek

Craigh: We should probably put all this into a sack and tie it shut. Bixi here might want to look at it.

Lanek: nods

Indigo: pulls the loose weeds off of Bixi

Craigh: Thank you, Yout. I couldn't get this one trapped.

Youtargim: I will go wake Rae

Spring (Lanek): she didn't wake up ?

Indigo: Bixi, are you okay?

Shakes Rae's shoulder

Youtargim: Time for you to take over

Lisa (Indigo): she has to be awake - Indigo was slashing away right on top of her

Raelynn: mumbles and rolls a overs

Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm fine, why?

Lanek: points

Youtargim: Rae, Bixi needs you, she was almost killed by a bunch of plants

Indigo: This big plant was straangling you

Youtargim: She will have issues

Lanek: tried to strangle ya

Bixi Fizzlebang: eyes widen

Indigo: It's dead now

Michael (Talwin): This is so surreal. "I'm totally fine, just beingstrangled by a plant, but I'm cool"

Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 15]

Indigo: See!

Indigo: points at cut up plant

User has gone AFK. (Spring)

Michael (Talwin): LOL

Youtargim: Rae, You need to wake up

Raelynn: Oh what?

Youtargim: Bixi needs you

Raelynn: For what? Make up?

Youtargim: She was almost killed by a plant

Raelynn: Oh.

Raelynn: OH!

Bixi Fizzlebang: I feel fine

Youtargim: You need to go help her understand

Raelynn: jumps and goes to check on her

Youtargim: I am going back up to my ....

Raelynn: [SKILL] Diagnostics [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 16]

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): what did I learn from that botany roll?

Youtargim: area and be ready if you need he says to himself

Raelynn: Hmm, she looks fine to me....

Indigo: Think we got it before it could do anything bad

Indigo: If you're okay I'll go to sleep now

Craigh: Craigh loops up his lasso and puts it back on his belt.

BOB Bixi knows that this is StrangleWeed, an intelligent plant that tries to gather intelligent creatures

Indigo: Watch for more plants. They will hurt you if they can

BOB Lemon I dragged the descripion to Bixi so you can see it

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): yes, looking now

Indigo: Goodnight!

Indigo: heads off to sleep

BOB So any other interactions and then third watch

Raelynn: [SKILL] Herbalism [2] [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 11) [FAILURE by 4] [d20 = 15]

Carissa (Raelynn): (apparently Rae is useless)

Craigh: Do you want any of these, Bixi, or shall I just dump it all overboard?

Raelynn: I think she's fine. Thank you, Indigo and others. Sleep well!

BOB Indigo slashes the plants strangling Bixi, then OK wake up, you look good, I am off to bed, good night

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oooh strangleweed. Hmmm. I wonder if we can just keep a little piece in a container of water... maybe I can do something with it back home

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi turning into a mad scientist right before your eyes

BOB Rae, Bixi, and who on third watch?

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't want to lug around a whole plant though, that's too much for this journey. Thanks for the offer though, Craigh

Craigh: We can use a spare waterskin to hold it

Bixi Fizzlebang: Perfect!

Craigh: Just don't forget which one it is.

Carissa (Raelynn): (thought Craigh was also 3rd)

BOB Talwin casually picks up a water skin to drink and suddenly something reaches out and GRABS onto his tonsils choaking him

TMO (Craigh): that's what we're trying to avoid thanks. :P

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bob, please make a mental note about this in case Bixi can start breeding them or making cool potions or something! Rocks from everywhere and a water skin of strangleweed

BOB chuckles you can add it to your character sheet notes

BOB but yes

TMO (Craigh): damn that would make a trap though, wouldn't it?

BOB See Bixi is infecting Craigh now

Carissa (Raelynn): (lol apprentice teaching the master)

Michael (Talwin): Hey guys, I'm super sorry, but I'm actually falling asleep at my desk haha. I think I better call it a night :)

TMO (Craigh): g'nite Michael

BOB Have a great weekend Michael

Carissa (Raelynn): (so Craigh doesn't want third? Yout just woke up id if you want him on - or it can bejust Bixi and Rae and optimism))

Carissa (Raelynn): (night Michael!)

BOB we are playing next week

Michael (Talwin): Night all :)

BOB plan to be here for Bywater

TMO (Craigh): Craigh was on 2nd, if you need him he can stay up though

Michael (Talwin): OK, I will be here....Don't we play every week? :)

BOB Yes next week, not the week after

User is back. (Spring)

Michael (Talwin): Ah,okay. Well hugs everyone :) Night!

'Michael' disconnected

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Goodnight Michael!

TMO (Craigh): it's not like he has to do any work during the day to rest up from. ;)

BOB lol

BOB So Rae and Bixi and.... Youtargim?

TMO (Craigh): And Craigh, sure why not?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): oh god, Bixi has to be THAT third wheel?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): THANK YOU TMO

Carissa (Raelynn): lmao

Craigh: I'm a bit too hyped up to go to sleep, I'll stay up with you if that's alright.

Raelynn: Sure! What do you want to talk about this time?

Bixi Fizzlebang: I'd be very glad for your company

Bixi Fizzlebang: sneaks a LOOK at Yout

Carissa (Raelynn): a LOOK or a look wink wink?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Like a "don't be a creeper to my friend" look

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Craigh: You missed a couple of very nice tunes from Lanek on the flute. I was surprised.

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Like eyes slightly narrowed

Craigh: I didn't know he could play.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh really? He and Zayden should start a band maybe

Lisa (Indigo): lol

Raelynn: Maybe that's why I slept so good.

Craigh: Maybe so.

Bixi Fizzlebang: What would they call themselves, do you think?

Craigh: Craigh chuckles.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Zayden and the oldies?

Craigh: I won't come up with any names.

Raelynn: Will they play oldies are their songs?

Bixi Fizzlebang: I mean, does Lanek strike you as the type to come up with fresh new songs? He seems like he would like the classics to me

Craigh: No clue. Music's not really my thing.

Craigh: Nice to listen to when it's available though.

Raelynn: Really? He looked more like someone who'd improvise to me. Or play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star many times.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Hmmm, maybe all my thoughts about him are wrong

Raelynn: I could sing if you like. Um, although maybe not until others are awake. They need sleep.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Maybe we could get Knotty to do percussion.

Raelynn: Can he do that...?

Craigh: You'll have to sing for us some time. That would be nice to hear.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't know... he did circus tricks, I bet he could learn to stomp a drum

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yes, Rae, I would love to hear your singing sometime

Raelynn: I'd be happy to! We use to sing and dance all the time at the temple. We haven't really had many opportunities while traveling.

Bixi Fizzlebang: We probably had some time those first few days but... yeah... these last few have been entirely too eventful for my taste

Raelynn: Well, yes, but I really wanted to hear Zayden sing. He was very enthusiastic about it, and surprisingly good!

Craigh: Probably won't be hard to convince him.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Even if Lanek isn't interested, I bet Zay and Knotty would make a great team

Raelynn: True. Maybe once we get to, well, anywhere at this point. I hope he's feeling better by morning.

Raelynn: They'll make an, er, interesting team....

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yes, we really need to get to town. I have a lot of glitter to buy

Bixi Fizzlebang: A one-man boar band!

Raelynn: Glitter?

Craigh: .. ?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yes, glitter

Bixi Fizzlebang: I shouldn't have said that out loud. No one mention it to Talwin, please.

Raelynn: For what? I have some glittery eyeshadow if you need it.

Raelynn: ...an glittery lipbalm is you want some for Talwin?

Raelynn: *and

Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm going to make his sword pretty... um... without his consent

Bixi Fizzlebang: It's a religion thing

Craigh: chuckles

Raelynn: nods knowingly

Raelynn: I know when to not ask questions I'm unsure I want the answer to.

Bixi Fizzlebang: God of the tricksters and whatnot

Raelynn: Just don't get it on anything else, please? It's hard to get out of things.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I guarantee we will all see the results! For... weeks... maybe forever.

Craigh: I'll be sure to be well out of the way.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Rae, I would do anything for you... but I can't do that

Raelynn: Um... well I thought you meant his... no no I don't want to know what you meant now.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I mean his giant evil sword!

Craigh: shudders

BOB and the difference is?

Bixi Fizzlebang: If we have to deal with that crazy thing, at least it can be nice to look at

Raelynn: Ummmmm, okay. You do you, Bixi!

BOB still my point stands

Carissa (Raelynn): (lmao)

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): can't dig myself out of this grave

Carissa (Raelynn): (nooope)

BOB LOL

TMO (Craigh): why try?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Rae, what are your favorite songs about?

Raelynn: Everyone has their... quirks.

Bixi Fizzlebang: subject change!

Raelynn: Oh silly. Love songs!

TMO (Craigh): commit and keep digging!

Raelynn: I'm sure you could have guessed that.

Lorie (Licornah): (Shout out to Wings)

BOB Enough of silly love songs,

Bixi Fizzlebang: Sure but more specifically. Are there particular characters that show up often, or are they all different?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): it isn't so!

BOB Fill the world with silly love songs

Raelynn: Elven ones are my favorite, but you have to find a really good musician to play it. They can just play such dreamy music...

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): and what's wrong with that? Rae would like to know.

BOB well what's wrong with that?

BOB grins

Raelynn: OH! Like Nieven! Have you met him? He's written some really nice ones.

Lorie (Licornah): (LOL)

Bixi Fizzlebang: I... don't think I've met him?

BOB So here she goes.... again

Raelynn: You should visit the forest more often. Um, not that I like visiting it TOO often, but somewhat often!

Craigh: shakes his head.

Raelynn: I prefer a bed for sleeping in to a tree, personally.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I really should. I spent a lot of time cooped up studying, and... some of the spells I was trying to learn are still a little too difficult for me to really get my head around

Raelynn: nods

Craigh: Elves don't really sleep in tree branches, do they? I've never seen one do that.

Raelynn: And Shi could probably teach you about some other plants besides whichever one it is we're getting for you.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I wonder if I could find somewhere to make a nice little home in a hill or something, with a little garden or a greenhouse around it

BOB Spells don't come in a minute.... sometimes they never come at all

Raelynn: You clearly haven't been paying attention to N'laea. I don't think she knows how to sleep in a normal bed.

Raelynn: Well I guess you'd have to spot her doing that, though.

Bixi Fizzlebang: It would be nice to have a sort of home to come back to

Craigh: I try to be very careful around N'laea, I wouldn't want to offend or upset her by accident.

Raelynn: laughs

Bixi Fizzlebang: N'laea is very intimidating

Bixi Fizzlebang: In a good way!

Raelynn: nods in agreement

Raelynn: It's... not hard. Umm, I might have done that. Multiple times....

TMO (Craigh): smiles.

Craigh: smiles.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh no, what did you do?

Raelynn: But I'm sure we can find a good place for a garden when we get back, Bixi!

Craigh: It's a slightly different situation for you and her though. I'm a stranger.

Raelynn: Be me, apparently?

Bixi Fizzlebang: But you're so great!

Raelynn: Oh, you've only known her a few months less than me.

Raelynn: beams

Raelynn: Thank you, Bixi! And so are you!

Bixi Fizzlebang: You're always so sweet and helpful and offering to share your expertise!

Bixi Fizzlebang: How could anyone be upset by that!

Raelynn: smiles

Raelynn: I just want the best for everyone! But maybe I'm too cheerful? Sometimes? Or so I'm told. I don't agree with that at all!

Craigh: shrugs

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Sorry TMO, not trying to ignore Craigh. Bixi just really connects with Rae lol

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

TMO (Craigh): of course! go for it!

TMO (Craigh): gush away! :D

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh, then she must not like me either. I'm also too cheerful

Bixi Fizzlebang: Craigh, does she like you?

Raelynn: I think sometimes she gets annoyed with my questions, too. But she's, well, a wood elf, you know? They're very... independent and solitary and not at all like the elves from the temple.

Raelynn: No such thing as too cheerful!

Craigh: Honestly, I'm not sure. I don't think she *dislikes* me, for what it's worth. I probably just don't really have a rating, like or dislike.

BOB Let us prove if being too cheerful is a thing Rae can make an encounter check

Bixi Fizzlebang: Well that's not bad

Carissa (Raelynn): .....

Raelynn: [d20 = 17]

BOB See

BOB not possible

Carissa (Raelynn): Success!

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol, tell that to myself as a teenager

Carissa (Raelynn): tell that to me right now, lol

Raelynn: I think mostly she's neutral? But if you impress her, she'll take notice of you?

Raelynn: She told me once about this warrior... umm, wait no, she wouldn't want me to repeat that.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Ooooh, did she have a secret romance!?

Craigh: Well, warrioring isn't something I can impress her with, so no worries there.

Raelynn: glances around conspiratorial before leaning in and nodding vigorously

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oooooh! I won't ask you to share secrets, but that's so exciting!

Bixi Fizzlebang: Craigh, do you have any secret romances to share?

Craigh: snorts.

Raelynn: She wouldn't give me any good details, though! Just that it was some woman who was like, really good with her sword. Which, you know, being a woman means she meant a real sword.

Raelynn: But don't tell her I told you!

Craigh: No, sorry.

[TURN] Indigo - [Chant(Friendly); ATK: 1; DMG: 1; SAVE: 1]

BOB Just resettign the CT

Carissa (Raelynn): (throwing Bixi back into that grave there)

Bixi Fizzlebang: I'd be too scared to tell her I knew anything

Raelynn: Which is why I feel safe telling you!

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): gee thanks carissa

Raelynn: beams

Carissa (Raelynn): beams

Carissa (Raelynn): (one for OOC, one for IC, lol)

Bixi Fizzlebang: Why not Craigh? There must be some humans out there who really like the one-armed battle-scarred type of guy

Raelynn: And Craigh didn't spill any of his secrets last time I asked him. He's very tight-lipped.

Craigh: shrugs.

Raelynn: Oh! What about a dwarf? They like the rugged types, right?

Bixi Fizzlebang: It's probably a bad idea to drink while we're on watch, right...

Craigh: Not in my experience, I'm afraid. Only the ones interested in coin, as far as I can tell.

Bixi Fizzlebang -> Raelynn: We need to get him drunk to loosen those lips! Get the secrets out!

Craigh: No worries, Raelynn. I'm very good with secrets.

Raelynn: Well do you want someone to be interest in you? We'll have time to kill in Dryads Lair...

Bixi Fizzlebang: What's your type? I bet Rae could help you find someone?

Raelynn -> Bixi Fizzlebang: You're his apprentice. You must have an idea of how to get him drunk.

Craigh: blushes and stammers a little bit

Raelynn: Yes! I already told Zayden I'd help him!

Bixi Fizzlebang -> Raelynn: I am? I thought that was just a joke!

Raelynn -> Bixi Fizzlebang: I didn't think it was a joke. Does Craigh make jokes?

Bixi Fizzlebang -> Raelynn: I don't know! Apparenly he blushes, and I didn't know that until right now!

Craigh: I haven't really given it that much thought. I mean, if it happens, great, but chasing after it is just .... depressing.

Raelynn: I got the spells ready to make it all easier for you.

Raelynn: holds up her hands and wiggles her fingers

Craigh: winces.

Bixi Fizzlebang: You can't see someone you're not looking for!

BOB Is it catfishing if you have magic?

Craigh: I absolutely do not want someone interested in me only because they were compelled into it.

Raelynn -> Bixi Fizzlebang: Well you have your mission now! He didn't blush when I tired to get him to talk last watch. You can do this!

Craigh: That would be even worse than none at all.

Carissa (Raelynn): Not using a fishing pole so no :P

BOB lol

Raelynn: rolls eyes

Bixi Fizzlebang: No no no, it's not like that

BOB Sharif/Zayden will be happy with that

Bixi Fizzlebang: You're not chasing, you're just letting people know you're available

Raelynn: There is no compelling. That's an insult to Hanali. She likes pure, honest love.

Lorie (Licornah): (ewwww... it might be carpfishing in your world... your carp have teeth)

Bixi Fizzlebang: Just meet people and talk and see if there are sparks!

BOB HAH

Craigh: What magic I do have is mind magic, remember. I have some experience with what it can do.

Craigh: smiles at Bixi.

Raelynn: Well you have to be yourself! You can't base a relationship off of lies.

Lorie (Licornah): (There is a spillway about an hour from here, and the carp flop on top of one another... no teeth, no biting)

Craigh: Bixi, I talk to lots and lots of folks. No mutual sparking that I've ever noticed.

Bixi Fizzlebang: You're talking to the wrong folks then

Raelynn: Ugh, are you like N'laea?

Craigh: How so, Raelynn?

Raelynn: She won't let me set her up, either.

Bixi Fizzlebang: When we get to Dryad's Lair, Rae and I will take you out somewhere nice, with drinks, and we'll see who we can meet. Right, Rae?

Raelynn: She says she doesn't understand what makes it all so great!

Craigh: takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Meet for Craigh, i mean. I don't want to meet anyone

Raelynn: nods

Raelynn: Umm, Bixi, it isn't fair to only try to set him up.

GM: [d100 = 1]

Carissa (Raelynn): (oooh what do we get with that? better be something good)

Craigh: Okay, feel free to try, but don't be upset when it doesn't work out.

Lorie (Licornah): (Craigh, I'm not saying you should be sick that night, but I'm not saying you should go either...)

Raelynn: I won't be! I've been at this long enough to see failures, but that's what makes the successes better!

Bixi Fizzlebang: We're not trying to set him up! We're just meeting people and seeing if there are sparks!

GM: [d100 = 27]

Craigh: Well, I can at least get drunk I suppose.

GM: [d20 = 6]

Raelynn: And if there are no sparks, well, I suppose I have to respect that.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I mean, if I happen to find sparks, great, but I'm not really interested

Raelynn: Oh yes, we'd be happy to get you drunk. You seem like you'd be a fun drunk.

Bixi Fizzlebang -> Raelynn: Success!

GM: [d20 = 18]

Craigh: chuckles.

Raelynn -> Bixi Fizzlebang: Good job, apprentice of his!

Craigh: Depends on my mood at the time.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yes, if nothing else, it might be a fun time with friends

GM: [d100 = 30]

Craigh: I'll accept that.

Raelynn: Don't worry. Bixi and I will have plenty of cheer to share with you to make it a good mood!

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): All this better be loot rolls or something

GM: [d100 = 45]

GM: [d100 = 85]

GM: [d20 = 5]

Carissa (Raelynn): (seriously)

TMO (Craigh): Incoming Loot Dragon!

Spring (Lanek): i have to go

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bye Spring!

BOB spend the session there

BOB take a week off for a long holiday weekend

TMO (Craigh): I'm fine, actually. It's not me we're talking about. I know all I need to know about Craigh to have this conversation already. ;)

Lorie (Licornah): (Can I take an Orison for Craigh, Zayden and Lanek to bring them ful health?)

BOB then pick up and go up river to Borts Beach

Lisa: sounds good

BOB Yes to Lorie I will do that for you

Carissa (Raelynn): (they should have had it done earlier)

Carissa (Raelynn): (Rae cast before she went to bed)

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): What, why a week off

Zayden's health adjusted by +5

Licornah: Okay, hopefully someone can pick up Indigo

Indigo's health adjusted by +6

TMO (Craigh): voting I bet

Lanek's health adjusted by +2

Lisa: he's good he'll sleep it off :)

Carissa (Raelynn): (it's fine, think Bob missed it, but no use wasting a spell if it's because he missed that :) )

Craigh's health adjusted by +1

Lorie: Voting should be a holiday

TMO (Craigh): agreed

Lisa: yes

Lorie: Got it...

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah but that's the week after voting

BOB I wish Lorie

Lorie: And I wish my inbox and all comm channels would have fewer ads

Lorie: :D

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): What, you like, have a life and stuff to do or something BOB?

BOB that is beyond any magic I know
