LemonyLemon: Lol, if your therapist wants to give me a killer discount, I'm in

springdew (Lanek): i'm seeing her on Employee Assistance Program, so i am not paying anything. dunno her regular rate

MadamePsychosis: EAP is nice

springdew (Lanek): she said she's had other player clients before, she didn't seem to think we are satanic or anything haha

springdew (Lanek): but i told her how i usally play cleric healers but am now playing an old fart butthole demoted theif. she didn't tell me if that says anything about my mental state

GM: Yes to EAP

springdew (Lanek): last time i was on EAP we got 6 sessions per year. my current plan gives me 12.

GM: good

Whistles and happy this morning

Youtargim: Youtargim

Lanek: rolls eyes and rows

LemonyLemon: gross, get a room

Indigo: Raelynn do you want to use the spyglass and be lookout while we row?

GM: Carissa is AFK

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): sorry

GM: Go for it

Indigo: [d20 = 9]

GM: not bad

GM: and again

Daphene: [d20 = 14]

GM: excellent

seyfert: (sorry phone call - back)

GM: good

GM: I have the next encounter lined up now

GM: there is one more roll to see how bad

seyfert (Raelynn): (oh no, what's that? the phone is ringing again I should grab it...)

GM: HAH

GM: and Rae is swept overboard by a freak wave

seyfert (Raelynn): and I'm cursed so not my roll

seyfert (Raelynn): ouch

Daphene: [d20 = 12]

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): My dice are good

GM: Ok that solves the encounter

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): yes they are

seyfert (Raelynn): yup

GM: At least the level of it

seyfert (Raelynn): ....

The time is 9:00 PM

The date is Trall____de, 2nd Din (Spring), 359 SKR

Young Moon's phase is New Moon

Old Moon's phase is Waning Gibbous

The time is 12:00 AM

GM: SO the second watch

seyfert (Raelynn): this a new night?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Indigo?

GM: Yes new night

seyfert (Raelynn): Indigo and Daphne?

seyfert (Raelynn): or Rae if we need to move it along since she didn't cast

GM: Totally up to you

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): I'm good with Indigo and anyone

GM: There are really only four of you, Indigo, Howard, Rae, Bixi, Daphene (four at the most can be chosen for one watch)

seyfert (Raelynn): Yeah guessing Lemon stepped away, was waiting for her to respond

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I started to respond then got distracted

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm find with wherever

seyfert (Raelynn): Figured if it's a fighting encounter she can see how Daphne works

seyfert (Raelynn): there you are

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Also you said four and then listed five

GM: 4 out of that 5

Bixi Fizzlebang: oh lord, so not ready for that lol, but it has to happen sometime

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): and Yout

GM: to leave 1 on third watch with Youtargim

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc

seyfert (Raelynn): ...why do we need more than two for second watch....?

GM: Not saying you NEED to

GM: just letting you choose

seyfert (Raelynn): well unless there is foreshadowing you're trying to do, I'd say non-casters second watch still make most sense

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): So we have six characters total? Why not just divide them up?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): I'll save Howard - we can wake him if needed

GM: Yes it does

seyfert (Raelynn): unless you all feel a need for Rae, let me know

GM: So Indigo and Daphene

seyfert (Raelynn): otherwise just wake her as well

GM: Rae, Howard, Bixi on third

GM: This is your chance Daph, to quiz the Hero about his adventures

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Who? Howard?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, wait, I got confused

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): the other short person?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Forgot who I was lol

seyfert (Raelynn): You can even have the whole convo in Hin to make use elves feel bad!

GM: That is a quote

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It's weird having a new character I know nothing about

seyfert (Raelynn): She likes coffee, long walks on the beach, and April 25th as the best day

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Because it's not too hot and not too cold?

seyfert (Raelynn): eactly

GM: Letting Daphene and Indigo start talking before I proceed with the encounter

GM: it is the middle of the night

Indigo: So Daphene, have you lived in Bywater your whole life?

Daphene: I have

GM: From midday at a high of 63 the temprature has been dropping slowly all day long

-> Daphene: Make up what you want, I will guide things if needed

Indigo: Must be hard to live in a port town when you want to be an adventurer

Indigo: Seeing ships all the time

Daphene: It was, but now I'm HERE! With the famous Indigo!

Indigo: laughs

User is back. (springdew)

Daphene: I've heard so many stories about you. Are they true? Did you really defeat a dragon with your bare hands wearing only shoes?

Indigo: WHAT?

GM: Spring Lanek can be here on the second watch too

Indigo: Why would I wear shoes and nothing else?

Daphene: It was unclear where the shoes are supposed to have been worn, but I assume the feet

Daphene: Well your prisoners had stolen them of course

Indigo: No I haven't fought a dragon naked

Indigo: laughs again

Lanek: dint i hear you killed a dragon from the inside out?

Lanek: like you let im swaller you?

Indigo: Ummm ... not a dragon

Indigo: That woukd be hard

Indigo: An ankheg

Lanek: oh. well there's legends to the contrary, so be ready fer that

Daphene: I also heard you scared off some vampires

Indigo: I'd rather not get eaten by anything

Lanek: current legends, i mean. i guess that's gossip

Indigo: I don't think I scared any vampires. They either scare me or they're friendly to us

Indigo: Stories sure get messed up

Daphene: You are FRIENDS with VAMPIRES?

GM: brb refilling

Indigo: Well more Branwyn than me but yes sort of

Lanek: shrugs uncomfortably

springdew (Lanek): there's all sorts of people ...

Lanek: there's all sorts of people ...

Indigo: Not all vampires run around attacking people all the time

Daphene: visibly impressed

GM: b

Daphene: Lanek, have you made friends with any... unconventional people?

GM: Other than Indigo

Indigo: looks at Lanek

Lanek: um yeah

LemonyLemon (Daphene): obviously

Lanek: you kinda hafta

Lanek: i mean in my line of work, once you steal somethin you gotta move it on, and the high and mighty don't get into that kinda work

Daphene: This is SO exciting!

Lanek: plenty of good people, but not GOOD people if you see what i'm sayin

Daphene: What kind of people are there where we're heading? Big people? Vampires?

Lanek: so you kinda go along, get along, don't make too many waves

Indigo: Mostly big people

LemonyLemon (Daphene): lol I thought that said "too many wives" at first

springdew (Lanek): hahahahaha

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

GM: Quote

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

Lanek: i don't think i been out this way before

Lanek: but then again, i've had my head knocked around a lot

Daphene: What kind of dangers should I be watching for?

Lanek: pickpockets an cutpurses

Indigo: Big birds or big fish

Indigo: Ohhh you mean when we land

Lanek: looks at indigo with surprise

Indigo: I thought she meant right now

springdew (Lanek): two different wavelengths there

Daphene: Both!

Indigo: Anything big is usually a problem

Lanek: okay so birds and fish now, miscreants later

GM: Speaking of making waves, and anything big

Indigo: It's so dark we probably won't even see anything until it's right over us

GM: Daphene notices that the waves on the river seem to be getting larger

seyfert (Raelynn): ....

Daphene: Is anyone else feeling a little queasy? Like... the waves are getting bigger?

seyfert (Raelynn): I was waiting for you to tell us something cool, like, "Yeah! I'm making waves by being on this big show!" or something like that...

Indigo: Waves?

Weather Report Location: Velikaya River Forest, Mid Spring Day 1, Midnight Precipitation: Heavy Rain Wind: Low Winds Temperature: Cold 37°F / 3°C

Indigo: We're not supposed to be haing waves on the river

Daphene: Well, I definitely feel waves

Indigo: goes to the edge of the ship and looks out

GM: The temprature has dropped by 30 degrees, the wind is picking up, and now rain/sleet is starting

Daphene: [SKILL] Weather Sense [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 8) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 8]

Indigo: This is a real storm!

Indigo: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 10) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 13]

Lanek: grumbles

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): drat

Lanek: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 13] [d20 = 1]

GM: Very nice for Lanek

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Wow, Lanek, you are so talented at boating!

Indigo: Think the ship can make it through the storm?

springdew (Lanek): hahahahahah

Lanek: thinks

Daphene: I'm not sure this kind of storm should be happening on the river...

springdew (Lanek): would a really good boatsman think we need to pull close to shore and anchor up?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): I was hoping that was what we had done already

GM: I will give Daphene the Yes it should not be happening

seyfert (Raelynn): (check for nearby gypsies and cursed rings)

Daphene: This is very unusual. I would even potentially call it unnatural...

Indigo: You think it is a magic storm?

GM: I will say to Yes to Lanek that the ship "should" be able to handle this storm but would want someone at the wheel

Lanek: yeah the ship otter make it, but maybe both of us should help hold the wheel

Lanek: we need at least one, but this is gettin rough

Indigo: Should we wake up Youtargim?

GM: and I will give Daphene and Indigo and Lanek another Intuition check, (Wisdom(

Indigo: I can wake him up so he can steer

Daphene: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 9) [FAILURE by 10] [d20 = 19]

Indigo: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 10) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 8]

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Well, good dice had to fail me eventually

Indigo: wakes up Youtargim

Lanek: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 8] [d20 = 5]

Indigo: Wake up! There's a storm brewing!

springdew (Lanek): gonna drop them into the smelter?

Youtargim: Hammhammm

Youtargim: Um

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Not yet... everyone's allowed to make the occasional mistake

Youtargim: Yeah Yeah

Youtargim: Who turned off the heat

Youtargim: Wow

Indigo: Maybe it's a magic storm but I don't know how to shut it off

Youtargim: Oh

Indigo: Think Raelynn can stop a magic storm?

Youtargim: Yeah, I think that makes sense

Youtargim: Not sure she can,

Youtargim: I mean it makes sense that it is somehow magical

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): did our wisdom tell us anything?

Indigo: Not sure if we should sit here and freeze or get back to rowing so we can get out of here. I think we might need to row again

Lanek: now that the kid is up

Indigo: What if it gets so cold the river freezes and we can't sail again?

Lanek: rows

GM: Wisdom for Indigo means he knows that Silver Dragon = frost = cold spring storm?

Indigo: pulls anchor so we can leave

Daphene: rows

Indigo: Wait a minute

Daphene: stops

Indigo: Silver dragons breath frost!

Daphene: That doesn't sound good

GM: Wisdom for Lanek means he knows that the lake experiences these type of storms but not the rivers

Indigo: What if a silver dragon was attacking us!

Indigo: looks around

Indigo: starts rowing

Indigo: Green dragons looking like silver dragons and silver dragons freezing ships

Youtargim: Indigo? Are you ok?

Youtargim: Why are you ... what?

Indigo: It's like we landed in the middle of a dragon war

Indigo: Why am I what?

Youtargim: I do not know about these metal dragon types

Youtargim: we have Yellow,

Youtargim: well I guess Brass is a metal

Youtargim: so Brass and Yellow

Youtargim: I am not familiar with Green

Youtargim: what do they do?

Youtargim: you started rowing harder Indigo

Indigo: I've only seen green, blue and black but I've heard of silver

Youtargim: [SKILL] Seamanship [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 14] [d20 = 1]

seyfert (Raelynn): oooo nice

Indigo: I don't want to fight a dragon in the middle of the night

Indigo: The green dragons blast that gas that covered this fishing boat

Indigo: And they HATE elves!

Youtargim: I can tell you that any dragon I have ever heard of wants treasure and is vain about compliments

Youtargim: OH

Indigo: If a green dragon saw us they'd come straight at Raelynn and Licornah

seyfert (Raelynn): lol Indigo knows how to get him to care

Youtargim: quickly looks to make sure the hatch is closed

Youtargim: Well we can outrun them

Indigo: Hope so

GM: Boating check from Indigo and Lanek

Indigo: rows harder

Indigo: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 10) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 10]

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): barely but I'll take it

GM: Spring?

Lanek: [SKILL] (vs. Target 0) [FAILURE by 15] [d20 = 15]

Lanek: whoops

springdew (Lanek): whoops

seyfert (Raelynn): what skill was that to be 0?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): try again that didn't look right

springdew (Lanek): oh did i drag the wrong thing?

seyfert (Raelynn): think so

GM: Yes to Spring

Lanek: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 16]

seyfert (Raelynn): darn

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): ouch

GM: good, not a sucess but the right roll

GM: and so then I want a Strength check from Daphene

LorieD (Licornah): (Evening all - hope things are going well)

Daphene: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 17) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 18]

GM: Welcome back Lorie

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Hi Lorie! :)

seyfert (Raelynn): hi lorie

springdew (Lanek): hi Lorie!

GM: Hope the concert was fun, and she did well

LorieD (Licornah): (I will have pictures and photo posted in a bit, she did great!!)

GM: Buckle up, Youtargim is negociating you sailing through a magical winter storm

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): think we just got hit by a silver dragon frost blast

GM: So the overall effect is that the temp has dropped 30 degrees, the wind has picked up, it is midnight, and Youtargim has extremely sucessfully navigated through the wind whipped waves and angling sails to double your speed to manage to escape the storm

LorieD (Licornah): Really? That's awesome... Silver dragons and LG and better than icky green dragons

GM: with zero damage to the Buttercup

GM: and an extra several miles overall accomplished for the trip than you expected to (which you will find out in the morning after the third watch)

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): yay!

The time is 3:00 AM

GM: Which is up now

LorieD (Licornah): (or was it a White dragon? Those are CE and not so great...)

GM: Tossed and turned but all safe

GM: grins see Lorie you should have been here to make that connection

Indigo: Wow! That was a lot of work. I need sleep now

LorieD (Licornah): (I love dragons... but metallic dragons > chromatic dragons)

GM: That was what I was aiming for, winter weather, cold, wind, sleet

Lanek: collapses onto the bedroll

LorieD (Licornah): (ewwww.... white dragon. No thanks... keep rowing)

Indigo: wakes Howard, Lanek and Bixi

GM: But Lisa jumped past my obsfucation and went to the Silver rather than White

Indigo: not Lanek

GM: Howard Bixi, Licornah on third watch

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): we're too far south for white dragons aren't we?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Good morning!

GM: I was hoping to make you paranoid about it, grins

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): or we could do Raelynn instead of Howard since I had a PC on last watch

GM: That works also

LorieD (Licornah): (Well... since BOB keeps talking about cold, frost, etc., white would be more likely than a happy Silver dragon)

LorieD (Licornah): (and ... it's BOB, Silver dragons probably moved the other side of the world because we were here)

seyfert (Raelynn): (whateves, she can sleep either or)

seyfert (Raelynn): dunno maybe we pissed on Mr. Silver unintentionally

LorieD (Licornah): :: weaves and watches ::

GM: This is where Licornah can question Bixi on her new henchman, who she is and what they plan on doing

seyfert (Raelynn): *pissed off although Zayden maybe pissed on

GM: HAH

GM: and Carissa can decide Rae or Howard

seyfert (Raelynn): high or low?

GM: and or both

GM: winks

GM: Oh high or low, not top or bottom

Raelynn: I was gonna "flip a coin" but surem both

Bixi Fizzlebang: stares out into the middle distance

Raelynn: Well that was a good sleep!

GM: So Howard and Rae and Bixi and Licornah

Raelynn: [SKILL] Herbalism [2] [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 11) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 9]

seyfert (Raelynn): Oh! Bixi1 Here! I made you some glitter lotion! It turned out decently.

Raelynn: Oh! Bixi1 Here! I made you some glitter lotion! It turned out decently.

Bixi Fizzlebang: What? Oh, thank you!

Bixi Fizzlebang: puts some lotion on

Raelynn: Would you like some, too, Howard? It'll bring out that sparkle in your eyes!

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oooooh, it smells so nice! What is that scent?

Raelynn: I wanted something a bit earthy so I tried some spruce and parsley. What do you think?

Bixi Fizzlebang: It... reminds me of home

Raelynn: Oh good! I think? Is that good?

Howard Plum: I don't think I would look good in glitter

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yes, it's good! It's been too long

Raelynn: You won't know until you try!

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't want to go back there forever, but a visit is probably overdue

Raelynn: It has been a long trip, hasn't it? Maybe you can visit when we get back before you get your house settled.

Howard Plum: About your house Bixi. You're not going to put it inside the Inn section are you?

Bixi Fizzlebang: No, there's not enough room there. But I'm hoping Gerry will give me a little space for a garden. Some things just don't grow properly in the mist, you know?

GM: Just to be clear, it has only been 3 weeks and a couple of days that you have been home, it just feels like a lot longer

seyfert (Raelynn): (they just celebrate two holidays away from home that always makes it feel longer)

GM: Nods

Licornah: (it feels like 3 years... snails sail faster :: snark snark snark ::

GM: HAH

Raelynn: What kind of plants? Just herbs? Or food and pretty ones or...?

Howard Plum: But every time you want to visit and then leave you'll get mist sick ...

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm sorry, what. I've been here for like over a year, but Bixi's only been here for three weeks?

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): That doesn't track

seyfert (Raelynn): on this ship

GM: Bixi lives in the gnome enclave in Dragon Fen, that is where she grew up, so the last time she was near home was when you left on this trip

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, but she didn't go visit people

GM: Well would you go stop at your sister's house if you were leaving town for a few days and expect to be back soon? grins

seyfert (Raelynn): does Bixi like her family...?

GM: and creates a note for Lemon to create Bixi's sister, her husband and .....

seyfert (Raelynn): maybe she wanted to prove a point and didn't visit because her sister just doens't think she can survive on her own and SHE'LL SHOW HER

GM: YES!

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi's sister's husband? Because Bixi is DEFINITELY NOT MARRIED

seyfert (Raelynn): I hope not because if she didn't tell Rae that, Rae wouldn't forgive her

GM: Yes BiL

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Lol, Carissa, that sounds personal

seyfert (Raelynn): shhhh maybe

GM: and I derailed Howard's excellent gardening tips

Raelynn: Well if she feels Mist Sick, she can just.. go right back into the garden, right?

Raelynn: And then come out again and hope she handles it.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Both, though, to asnwer your question

Bixi Fizzlebang: There are so many useful things we don't have now, that we could.

Bixi Fizzlebang: And some of them also look pretty

Raelynn: I look forward to it! I have ideas if you need them. And have room.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I would love your contribution Rae! I've never left home so even though I know a lot, most of it is from books, and it's always different in person

Raelynn: It is very different! I'm actually not sure I'm ready to go home. I mean, I do want to see my mother, but, well, it's such a production.

Licornah: :: looks up :: If you need help with a garden, let me know, my family are farmers.... I seem to have a green thumb ...

Bixi Fizzlebang: Ooooh, that would be great, Licornah. If you don't mind braving the mist sickness

-> Licornah: Licornah was not there for the full introduction of Daphene and how in the world did Bixi aquire a halfling "ranger" henchman

Licornah: Oh, I won't be going into that mist. If you move your garden, let me know I guess :: smiles weakly ::

Licornah: Gotcha....

-> Licornah: Will be good to quiz Bixi and have Lemon spontaneously develop the personality

Licornah: Okay....

'Master TMO' connected

GM: Rowing, sailing

GM: and Hello TMO

Licornah: :: pauses :: So, umm, who was the girl who got on the boat with us earlier? Daphene?

Raelynn: hi TMO!

LorieD (Licornah): (Evening TMO)

Lanek: hi TMO

Master TMO: am I too late for anything?

MadamePsychosis (Howard Plum): Hi TMO :)

MadamePsychosis (Howard Plum): nope

GM: Just in time to be dinner

Master TMO: no thanks, I'm full. :P

GM: Lemon is on deck with questions from Licornah about Daphene

Raelynn: Someone who wants to be an adventurer.

Raelynn: shrugs

Licornah: :: nod :: Okay... seems reasonable then

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't know, but she wants to be an adventurer, I can relate to that!

Bixi Fizzlebang: And she likes my stories!

Raelynn: Yes! You were going to tell us why she called you the Story Teller?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Well, that night after you burned the village down, I went over to *insert name of place I forgot here* and told them all about my adventures so far... well, our adventures since I've joined you, and now I'm famous for them!

Bixi Fizzlebang: But Rae... *I* want to know what's going on with you and Yout. He seemed unusually happy this morning...

Raelynn: Oh wow! Congratulations! Er, that's the right word, yes?

Licornah: :: nods sagely and continues weaving ::

Raelynn: Oh. We kissed last night.

LorieD (Licornah): (has popcorn been invented yet, I feel like we need some right now)

Bixi Fizzlebang: OooOOOOooOOoOOooOOooOOOoOhhhhh

Howard Plum: looks up and then quickly away

Raelynn: Well it was New Years Eve, and I've never started off a New Year without one.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Is it... an experience you intend to repeat?

Raelynn: Well, maybe when I was really really young, but besides that.

Raelynn: shrugs

Raelynn: I like kisses.

springdew (Lanek): it's still 3rd watch, right?

Bixi Fizzlebang: shoot, brb

'LemonyLemon' disconnected

Raelynn: I'm kind of annoyed the burning barn meant Lord Olgirith ....forgot.

GM: Yes to Spring

seyfert (Raelynn): (yes but if Lanek needs to wake up to be annoyed...)

springdew (Lanek): cool. no suffering for Lanek

seyfert (Raelynn): LOL

springdew (Lanek): he might have nightmares though

seyfert (Raelynn): Rae would be entertained to know that she caused his nightmares

MadamePsychosis (Howard Plum): he gave her nightmares after he went swimming in his skivvies :)

seyfert (Raelynn): exactly - this is payback

GM: One more Encounter roll

GM: with no Story Teller here to continue things

seyfert (Raelynn): (someone not cursed)

Howard Plum: [d20 = 7]

GM: Not too bad

Weather Report Location: Velikaya River Forest, Mid Spring Day 2, Night Precipitation: Light Rain Wind: Low Winds Temperature: Cold 41°F / 5°C

seyfert (Raelynn): well that still feels cursed

Weather Report Location: Velikaya River Forest, Mid Spring Day 2, Dawn Precipitation: Light Rain Wind: No Wind Temperature: Cold 42°F / 6°C

'LemonyLemon' connected

Master TMO (Craigh): it's only a *baby* tarrasque

The time is 6:00 AM

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): back

GM: The dawn lights the eastern sky, still chilly but the storm and extreme cold and wind have died down

GM: so Bixi can be explaining the rest of her story as others are waking up

LemonyLemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): No, that was it

GM: chuckles was giving you a chance to blurt out something while Lanek or Youtargim wake up

GM: but Bixi can start with breakfast instead

Indigo: Any more dragons?

Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Cooking [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 11] [d20 = 4]

Youtargim: [SKILL] Rope Use [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 15]

Raelynn: Not that we noticed.

Youtargim: Hey Lanek, can you check that boat please?

Craigh: That's good.

Indigo: Good!

Youtargim: The ummm MOC?

Raelynn: Oh but I did give Bixi some new glittering lotion1 I'm sure she'll share if anyone else is interested.

Lanek: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 8] [d20 = 6]

Youtargim: Do we really want to call it that?

LorieD (Licornah): :: wonders if the group is imaging dragons since she hasn't seen any /s ::

GM: nice Lorie

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): I thought it was letters spelling cow and not a picture last week :)

springdew (Lanek): hahahaha

seyfert (Raelynn): (lol it was a good idea)

GM: and Lanek can see that the ropes are a bit frayed but the boat is still there

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): who has a picture and not a name of their ship?

Raelynn: What else could an upside down cow be?

Lanek: we still got it

Lanek: dunno how long these ropes'll hold out

Daphene: dead?

Raelynn: Tipped?

Daphene: Dead Sea Cow has a nice ring to it

LorieD (Licornah): (MOC = Model of Care; Market Operations Center... Monsters of Colombia... )

Youtargim: That is an interesting name Daphene

Master TMO (Craigh): just like cattle brands, I imagine.

Indigo: Talwin got a bunch of rope to tie things up. Why don't we use some of that to make sure it holds

Craigh: I can work on that while the rest are rowing.

Youtargim: It looks like it has a decent hold, not comfortable like the Buttercup, but it seems to hold a decent ammount

LorieD (Licornah): (cow tipping is bad... makes cows drop milk )

Raelynn: Does it have to keep its old name? What are we going to do with it anyways?

springdew (Lanek): lanek doesn't have rope use and apparently using a rope in boating isn't included with boating

Lanek: rows

Youtargim: I think giving it a new name would be good, we are claiming salvage rights on it

Craigh: [SKILL] Rope Use [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 4] [d20 = 19]

springdew (Lanek): legitimate salvage = rocinante

Master TMO (Craigh): first time was 13, but apparently you have to roll it in the chat window for it to be considered 'real'

Master TMO (Craigh): *shrug*

GM: grins with Spring

Raelynn: Salvage rights?

LorieD (Licornah): (lol - agree with you Spring, but are we Don Quixote types???)

Youtargim: When you are out on the seas

Raelynn: Well first, this is a river as you all keep telling me.

Youtargim: If you come across a wreck you can claim it

Youtargim: I am guessing that the same rules apply here

Raelynn: And are you allowed to salvage boats and ships? What's salvagable and what isn't?

Youtargim: It is salvagable if you can make it sail again

Youtargim: Or you sell it for scrap

Raelynn: Aren't ships supposed to go with their captains?

Indigo: It's the other way around

Youtargim: The ... uh... dead sea cow? is still boat worthy and we can use her or sell her

Indigo: And the captain went with the dragon instead

Youtargim: Good Captains stay with their ship until the end

Youtargim: and then hope for a rescue if needed

Raelynn: Who I'm guessing maybe died. So instead of sinking the ship you just.. take it?

Indigo: Yup

Raelynn: These rules confuse me.

Youtargim: I think Indigo knows more of these customs that most of us

Youtargim: In my seas we would take it, and crew it, and create a fleet

Youtargim: and then be able to raid more, attack bigger targets and take....

Raelynn: If it had a crew, but no captain, what would you do?

Indigo: Yeah but we don't need a fleet

Youtargim: well in general do more things

Indigo: You make a captain when there is none if you want to sail

Youtargim: If there was a working crew, we would give them a choice of joining us or being set safely at the next port

Raelynn: That seems less.... ruthless than I thought pirates normally were.

Youtargim: There is a code

Youtargim: Sort of a guideline

seyfert (Raelynn): (Parly! If you demand parly...)

Daphene: So you just sail around looking for abandoned ships?

Daphene: That sounds boring

Raelynn: So if you don't want that to happen you... make someone captain like Indigo says?

GM: A movie I have actually seen, and someone can pick Lisa up off the floor at that one

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

Youtargim: Well sometimes you find abandoned ships, and sometimes you make abandoned ships

Raelynn: But you're on a ship for weeks and months and... forever?

Youtargim: The longest I have not been on a ship was when I was with you in the Elf Lands

Raelynn: That was only for a day or two.

Youtargim: Nods

Youtargim: I would say maybe a week or three a year at the most over the last decade plus

User has gone AFK. (LorieD)

Youtargim: I have always lived on the sea and I have been a captain for a while

Indigo: You weren't on a ship all the time you worked for Princess Maya were you?

LemonyLemon (Daphene): I'm sorry, what was he doing while we were doing all our planning and researching or whatever? Didn't we spend time at home before leaving?

Youtargim: Most of that time

Youtargim: I sailed for her, returning with treasures and her requests

Raelynn: I don't know how you do it. That sounds very... not my thing.

GM: Yes to Lemon, he was conflating that with the Elf Lands apparently

User has gone AFK. (MadamePsychosis)

LemonyLemon (Daphene): eyeroll

Youtargim: Sailing the seas is different than this

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Even OOC Yout is annoying :P

Raelynn: But it's still on water.

Youtargim: You get to see new places, be out of sight of land for weeks

Youtargim: Or under the water,

Youtargim: or on a beach

Youtargim: the sunsets are spectacular

Raelynn: With humidity and wind burn and horribly skin! It's very hard to keep a good routine on the water.

Craigh: chuckles

Raelynn: And what about people and towns and parties?

Youtargim: There are very many parties

Youtargim: and towns with a ... people all over

Raelynn: Oh yes, I know that. You can pick out the sailors quite easily when they visit Loosend. And not necessarily in a good way.

Youtargim: A good captain knows how to be careful and pay attention to the right things

Youtargim: To learn as you might say

Raelynn: I suppose. I just can't quite comprehend that lifestyle. It just... doesn't quite sound as appealing as it clearly is to you.

Youtargim: I wonder if Bixi has finished breakfast, or did Indigo abscond with all of it

Lanek: rows

Youtargim: I like having the ability to go out and find what I need to please the Princess

springdew (Lanek): BOB if you decide to try Mastodon and haven't yet, you might like the libraryland.social instance

GM: Thanks, I have debated it, I had an account years ago when G+ went down, no clue where it was/is

Raelynn: Well whatever makes you happy. I won't begrudge people for what makes them happy. I might not understand it - at all - but if it makes someone happy...

Lanek: rows

Master TMO (Craigh): I imagine I'll have to get on there some time

User is back. (MadamePsychosis)

Youtargim: I do hope I get to make you happy too

springdew (Lanek): i'm loving the fediverse

Daphene: Really? What if murder made someone happy?

Youtargim: Indigo, breakfast is up

Youtargim: What is murder for you Daphene

Raelynn: Well, legal and moral things, of course.

Lanek: cheers up at the thought of murder, but only for a second

Raelynn: If you hurt someone else to be happy, then no, I don't support that.

Youtargim: Like we takled about salvage, to others they might take that as stealing

Lanek: rows

Daphene: side-eyes Yout

seyfert (Raelynn): (lol)

Daphene: What kind of a question is that?

springdew (Lanek): lanek is SUPPOSED to be neutral good

Master TMO (Craigh): neutral grumpy good

Youtargim: If We keep this boat, we know that all on board died, so we should feel free to keep it right?

Indigo: hurries over to Bixi to get a nice plate

Daphene: We didn't kill them

Youtargim: Very true, but if we come across the widow of the captain when we get to port, what then?

Lanek: it aint like we can go huntin down the heirs or somethin

Youtargim: Do we keep the boat? or give it to her?

Raelynn: And now you know why I was asking earlier!

Lanek: we have exackly ONE clue

Daphene: Ok, we can debate stealing all day, but you asked "What is murder to you?" That's quite a fucking question

seyfert (Raelynn): (wow didn't know Daphene had that kinda mouth on her)

Youtargim: So if you have to kill the bugbear that is trying to capture your boat

Master TMO (Craigh): lol

Youtargim: is that murder?

LemonyLemon (Daphene): She did have watch with Lanek twice

Indigo: What if the ship came from Bovine Valley

Raelynn: Oh! Maybe that's why it has a cow on it? Too bad that Penny girl isn't here.

Youtargim: What or Where is bovine valley Indigo?

Indigo: Oh that's back in Drillian. If it came from there it's really far from home. It's just the biggest cow place I ever heard of

Youtargim: ok

Indigo: And yes you stop anyone from taking your ship. Hopefully you don't have to kill them but you have to stop them

Daphene: Self-defense is obviously different than murder. Murder is defined by motive. At least it is in my culture. Not sure about yours.

Indigo: No one takes your ship

LemonyLemon (Daphene): ZERO PERCENT TRUST YOUT ANYMORE

Youtargim: I agree with you Daphene

Youtargim: I have always lead my crew with the idea that we treat others as we want to be treated

Craigh: A lot of crime is all in how you phrase it or who is doing it.

Youtargim: However if we are supposed to be collecting a toll from everyone in an area

Youtargim: we need to enforce that toll sometimes when others do not want to pay

Daphene: Crime is a construct and thus open to debate.

Youtargim: That sounds very much like a pirate who wants to just steal rather than give people a chance to parley

Youtargim: You said you have not left home or gone very far Daphene?

Raelynn: Just because it is a law doesn't mean it is right.

Daphene: Certain things go deeper than socially agreed upon rules. Like murder.

Craigh: Do they?

Daphene: Yes.

Youtargim: I have found that some societys are very happy to embrace things like murder and call it survival of the fittest

Indigo: What's a construct other than buildings?

Daphene: If you are going to take someone's life when you don't have to, may the gods punish you appropriately

Youtargim: gnolls are a vicious lot

GM: No one here would have heard or seen a gnoll, they only exist in the southern hemisphere

Indigo: conversation is going way over Indigo's head

Indigo: Gnolls are like gnomes?

Daphene: Something invented by people. People invented crime. Stealing someone else's money or forcing them to pay taxes or whatever... those are people things.

Craigh: So, let's say a thief breaks into a house to steal something small, like food, or a few coins. And the person who lives there comes home and discovers them in the act and attacks them with a knife, is it murder if they kill the burglar?

Youtargim: Gnolls are much bigger than gnomes, bigger than men, almost small giants, they are like a person and a heyena

Daphene: Depends. Did they need to kill the burglar?

Craigh: Doesn't sound like it to me.

Daphene: Then yes. That's murder.

Craigh: And if the burglar kills the owner in self-defense?

GM: slips off to get water during ethics class

Raelynn: Um, didn't the burglar burgl...ar? first?

Craigh: Yes

Daphene: If the owner isn't trying to murder the burglar than the burglar has no reason to try and murder the owner

Raelynn: Well they shouldn't have done that probably.

Craigh: But the owner is trying to murder the burglar.

Daphene: Well then they shouldn't be.

Daphene: And if they are, then yes, go for it, burglar

Raelynn: But isn't the owner defending themselves?

Craigh: But is it murder if the burglar kills the owner in self-defense?

Daphene: Most burglars run away when they are caught, no?

Raelynn: Isn't that trespassing or something?

Craigh: The burglar in this scenario wasn't hostile, was just after some food or small coin.

Craigh: yes, absolutely.

Raelynn: Oh goodness. That's why I follow the Goddess of Love, not Justice.

Craigh: Oh, trust me, I don't follow any god of justice.

Craigh: grins

Raelynn: Maybe we need to find Brer and ask him.

Raelynn: Or Sundown. I bet he has a very specific view on this.

Daphene: Self-defense isn't murder. The cruel intention isn't there, it's just preservation

Daphene: Even if it's a burglar

Craigh: And yet the courts will most likely hang them for it.

GM: b

Daphene: That's courts for you

Daphene: Courts follow laws. Laws are made by people. People are flawed

Daphene: shrugs

Raelynn: Boy are they.

Indigo: You sure think a lot

Craigh: I mean, when it comes down to it, the difference between a thief stealing some coins from a pocket and a noble collecting taxes is how rich the perpetrator is.

Indigo: hey! We collect taxes are we aren't thieves

GM: Is very nice to have the contrast of Indigo, idealistic and leaving on adventure and having an open mind and now Daphene who thinks and has lots of ideas on how the world SHOULD work and now gets to go out and encounter and test those beliefs

Daphene: I think it also depends on what they do with the money they collect, but again... money is a people concept, absolutely open to debate

Indigo: A thief pickpocketing you isn't going to help you if you need it

Craigh: Obviously not. After all, we aren't carrying any valuable items we took from people by force on this ship, are we?

Indigo: Sure we are

LorieD (Licornah): (this feelsl like I joined a subreddit on alignment changes)

Youtargim: Does Knotty count?

GM: grins with Lorie

Bixi Fizzlebang: yells up from the hold "We bought him!"

Raelynn: Bixi paid for him. Quite a bit for a... pig...

Bixi Fizzlebang: "And he ran away from a cruel jerk that we paid!"

Youtargim: What a Pig

Master TMO (Craigh): (Ethics 210, by Professor Craigh)

seyfert (Raelynn): Let's toss Craigh and Daphane on the next watch together for Ethics 300

Master TMO (Craigh): oh, that poor girl...

Raelynn: He could at least smell a bit better.

GM: So as you are rowing and sailing

LemonyLemon (Daphene): lol, she is as yet unphased, that could be fun

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Watching Craigh try to break her

Master TMO (Craigh): oh, he wouldn't *try* per se. but he could be the rock that she shatters herself on. :)

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Oh ye of little faith

GM: So the last encounter before you arrive

seyfert (Raelynn): ..that didn't count....?

Craigh -> Raelynn: btw, oh Mistress of Skin Care... It has occured to me that Craigh is a redhead, most likely pale, and has spent his entire life in the Mist. And we've been many days out in the open air and sunshine upon a boat...

GM: Is so weirdly appropriate to this conversation that I had no idea would occur

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Bob has been taking notes - Daphene will get tested. he likes PCs with rigid thinking

Raelynn -> Craigh: Oh man. She's gonna have to notice and fix that!

GM: and love that too TMO

Craigh -> Raelynn: He quite possibly has no idea that sunburns are even possible. :)

GM: So who is on watch out there in the bow?

Master TMO (Craigh): probably Craigh, since he can't row

Raelynn -> Craigh: Once she points out how red he is, yeah, He's going to find out.

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): someone is going to try and burglarize the ship?

GM: So close Lisa

LemonyLemon (Daphene): She's a small-town girl, living in a lonely world... which probably doesn't see all that much murder

GM: Nice Lemon

GM: and definately almost zero murder in most halflings experience

GM: battles and some raids but not murder

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): craigh alos has obs so is good

Master TMO (Craigh): one of the ways he can be useful

GM: But we will leave the difference in what a Raid is versus being a Pirate for another time

seyfert (Raelynn): don't jinx yourself TMO

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

seyfert (Raelynn): whew

Master TMO (Craigh): I don't think Craigh lives under a lucky star, Carissa. :)

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

-> Craigh: Craigh spots two boats up ahead, one seems to be a pirate attacking the other.... and he can use this as his observation on several topics :)

The time is 9:00 AM

Craigh: Indigo! Looks like ship-to-ship fighting up ahead. And some boarding action too.

Indigo: Pirates!

Lanek: is it a raid or piracy?

Raelynn: Can we just... go around them?

Indigo: Maybe we can just sail past it

Lanek: damn he beat me to it

Raelynn: Am I rowing hard?

Lanek: i'm rowin hard

Lanek: so if you ain't, we might be circlin

Raelynn: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 11) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 14]

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

Raelynn: I'm trying, but my hands are all cracked today after that cold storm.

Lanek: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 11) [FAILURE by 4] [d20 = 15]

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Lanek is old and Rae is distracted by the handsome Yout

Licornah: [d20 = 13]

Licornah: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 8) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 4]

Indigo: Did you look through the spyglass? Is it bugbears?

GM: Yes Bugbears being attacked by a human ship

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): that's an ethical twist

GM: Bows

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): If it was us we'd be murdering bugbears ourselves

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): calls "Need any help with the murderin'?" as we pass by

seyfert (Raelynn): I mean we did get rid of some earlier...

GM: This is the final encounter on the list to solve on your way to Bort's

GM: Depends on how you solve it for what happens afterwards

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): but really how can we tell who attacked who first if we caught it mid-battle?

GM: very true

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): no one is saying anything ...

springdew (Lanek): saying nothing. nothing at all

Raelynn: I thought we were trying to sneak around and ignore them...

seyfert (Raelynn): (ooc)

Indigo: Youtargim! Swing by and let's see what's happening

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Or just let them fight it out unless someone asks for help?

Youtargim: [SKILL] Seamanship [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 15]

GM: Youtargim brings the Buttercup closer to the two ships that are fighting with each other

GM: Lanek and Indigo can make a boating check

GM: anyone with tactics can make that check, I think that is only Talwin

Indigo: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 10) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 4]

Lanek: [SKILL] Boating [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 8]

Howard Plum: [SKILL] Statecraft [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 8) [FAILURE by 4] [d20 = 12]

-> Indigo: Indigo can see that the human ship rammed into the bugbear ship, gashing a hole in the side and it is severely damaged

Indigo: The human ship rammed that bugbear ship. It's so damaged it's probably gonna sink

-> Lanek: Lanek can see that the human ship rammed into the bugbear ship, gashing a hole in the side and it is severely damaged, he can also spot where the human ship has taken damage also to its hull

Indigo: HELLO!!

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] They have reinforcements!

They have reinforcements!

[understood by: ]

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] Take the ship now! NOW~

Take the ship now! NOW~

[understood by: ]

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): how many humans in the ship?

Lanek: the human ship has some damage to its hull but i don't think it's gonna sink

Indigo: It's got a great big hole in the side!

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): bob gave us different info? :)

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Hello the Knarr!!!!

Lanek: i don't think the human ship is gonna sink. the bugbear ship is tho

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): oh oh

Indigo: Why are you attacking the other ship?

GM: You can spot at least a dozen bugbears and a dozen humans in the chaos of fighting

springdew (Lanek): maybe i can't read

Indigo: You're going to sink her

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: They are pirate! Drown them all!

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): no I read what you typed wrong sorry - got the ships confused

Bugbear [Bullywug]: [Translation] Ready to charge! On my mark! One Two Three

Ready to charge! On my mark! One Two Three

[understood by: ]

Daphene: looks at Yout

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] Ready to charge! On my mark! One Two Three

Ready to charge! On my mark! One Two Three

[understood by: ]

LemonyLemon (Daphene): The only pirate she's ever known

Youtargim: What do we do Admiral?

Lanek: nobody has a spell to understand them?

Lanek: i aint never learned no bugbear talk

Indigo: This is a mess. The only sailing bugbears I have every seen have been pirates. Including the ones that took me and sold me to Red Cloak

GM: Also I do like that contrast between hard Bugbear and rounded Bullywugs for the language, grins

Raelynn: I thought Yout spoke Bugbear. He did speak it before.

springdew (Lanek): i was wondering

Youtargim: Anyone want to look at

Craigh: I didn't prepare the right spell for it, or I could.

Youtargim: No I speak jotun

Youtargim: I was talking in the giant tongue

Lanek: well see if they speak the giant tongue

Youtargim: some bugbears understand that,

Indigo: They say they are fighting pirates and I'm not sure I wanna save pirates who sell people

Raelynn: Oh...

Lanek: well yeah, if they're right, me neither

Lanek: but if they're wrong, that's a different thing

Youtargim: Who do we want to save?

Daphene: Well, we have a pirate here as well

Lanek: i don't hold with slavers.

Youtargim: Looks at the young halfing girl, who would you side with?

Raelynn: Are we sure they're pirates?

Indigo: I don't wanna save anyone really. The other ship just rammed them cuz they were bugbears

Daphene: I do not side with anyone, this is not my battle

Youtargim: How many ports are there? Does anyone know? Howard? Rae?

Youtargim: I heard you talk about Dryads Lair City, and now Borts Beach, are there other ports nearby?

Link: Dryads Lair

Indigo: I think Borts is the closest port from here

Raelynn: Umm let me think....

seyfert (Raelynn): I dunno, give me a hint

Youtargim: I want to know if they might be coming up behind us at Borts and say we did not help them, which ever of them makes it

Youtargim: Do bugbears bring their ships into Borts or Dryads Lair?

Indigo: Yeah well ...

Indigo: I don't think bugbears bring their ships into human ports ...

Daphene: Did they ask for help?

Indigo: Do they?

Indigo: scratches his head

Raelynn: I can cast Zone of Truth, but I suppose only those we understand we can know if they're telling the truth.

Indigo: Maybe I don't know bugbear speak

Raelynn: The humans we could understand at least. But I suppose they might not be willing to talk much if they're being attacked.

Indigo: HEY HUMANS! YOU SUNK THEIR SHIP. YOU SHOULD PROBABLY JUST GO NOW

GM: For the hint for Rae and Howard, there is Dryads Lair City, then Pilk, then Borts Beach, then Easthaven going from east to west along the coast, Indigo (and others) were there with bugbear pirates who raided from up the river

seyfert (Raelynn): (let's just sink both boats - problem solved!)

Master TMO (Craigh): very pirate of you Carissa

GM: grins with Carissa, that is sort of what Youtargim was getting at,

GM: and LOL with TMO

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

GM: OR as the Roci

GM: as Lorie pointed out

seyfert (Raelynn): ?

User has gone AFK. (springdew)

GM: Was a comment earlier about a Salvage

GM: and OOC related to the Expanse

LorieD (Licornah): (that was Spring - I just said I didn't think we were Don Quixote enough)

GM: Ahh

GM: This is definately something to tilt at

GM: So quick thoughts, then I have the human ship react to Indigo's yelled comment

GM: Will you help either ship as it sinks if needed?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): yes

GM: Will you capture either ship after they disengage

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): we are towing a gas covered fishing boat that we could give to drowning peoples

LemonyLemon (Daphene): won't the gas kill them?

GM: It has aired out now after a few hours

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): not feeling that piratey myslf to do that

GM: it might smell but it is not dangerous

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): I was just commenting on it - don't think it is that gassy :)

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

GM: Yeah it is not like Lanek eating brussel sprouts

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

Master TMO (Craigh): that's been banned in 13 countries

LemonyLemon (Daphene): lol

GM: grins

GM: Ok so as your crew debates

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: If we sunk their ship we get to keep it for salvage!

Craigh: If they sink it, won't it be on the bottom of the river?

Indigo: Sure. Mind if we save the drowning ones so they don't all just die?

Indigo: shrugs at Craigh

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: The only good bugbear is a dead bugbear

Indigo: They seem to have a plan

seyfert (Raelynn): Billy was a good bugbear!

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: HEY! You have Elves! You should be helping us!

Craigh: So did Athar the Dim. He was never heard from again.

Raelynn: What?

Craigh: grins

Daphene: I'm in favor of saving whoever we can, but those humans seem extremely rude

Indigo: But what if they kill you first? We can take the non swimming ones and you get the ship

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: ARRGGG

GM: As he takes a spear through the chest too busy yelling at you and not watching out for the battle

GM: SPLASH

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Oops!

Master TMO (Craigh): "he must have died while carving it."

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

Raelynn: Do we... do we save him?

Indigo: Yeah

Indigo: Craigh can you lasso that one?

seyfert (Raelynn): (is it in lasso range?)

GM: not yet but you can get closer

Raelynn: This is why I prefer land. So confusing out here...

GM: Youtargim is keeping you off of the combat about 20 yards

GM: Slowly circling around them

Indigo: Pull her in for a rescue Youutargim!

Craigh: It's only confusing if you worry about it. Pick a side, and help it. Or neither and move on.

Youtargim: Will do

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Speared in the chest doesn't look good, even if we lasso him

Youtargim: [SKILL] Seamanship [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 14] [d20 = 1]

seyfert (Raelynn): dang he's on it tonight

Indigo: Craigh or Raelynn can you see if you can catch that human before he drowns?

Raelynn: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso [THACO(18)] [ENC: Moderate] [AC: 17 ] [d20-4 = 1]

seyfert (Raelynn): I dunno, did that work?

Youtargim: He sails the Buttercup STRAIGHT through the two ships separating them, pushing them apart with the hull of the Buttercup and coming out the other side

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): sweet!

seyfert (Raelynn): I feel like that math is wrong for mine...

seyfert (Raelynn): ooh very nice

Craigh: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso, called shot to Arms (Str or arms are pinned) [THACO(17)] [AC: 14 ] [d20-2 = 3]

GM: Have Rae target anyone on the Buttercup

GM: same with Craigh

GM: to trigger the right modifiers

Raelynn: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso [THACO(18)] [ENC: Moderate] [d20-4 = 15]

Attack [15] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Indigo] [Hit-AC: 3 vs. 10 ] [AC: 3 ] [HIT]

GM: There you go

seyfert (Raelynn): huh who knew she could lasso

GM: and for Craigh

Craigh: I don't have the map for some reason

Master TMO (Craigh): I don't have the map for some reason

seyfert (Raelynn): CT tracker

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): CT

seyfert (Raelynn): It never has worked for me dragging to map

GM: Starting next week we use different new maps as you are back on land and not using the ship for a while

Craigh: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso, called shot to Arms (Str or arms are pinned) [THACO(17)] [d20-2 = 15]

Attack [15] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Howard Plum] [Hit-AC: 2 vs. 10 ] [AC: 2 ] [HIT]

LorieD (Licornah): (:: confetti .gif ::)

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

GM: smiles at Lorie

GM: and excellent shot for Craigh

GM: So overall what happens: The Buttercup slices through the two boats that are fighting, dislodging them from each other and scattering the humans and bugbears who are fighting into their ships and into the water

GM: Rae spots two humans in the water, one with the spear but another who is swimming and she snags him with the lasso and pulls him back to the ship

GM: Craigh on the other side of the ship wrapps his lasso around the torso of a bugbear and manages to bind it up, then he hauls on it to bring it closer to your ship as you sail through the new gap

GM: You have those two in control as you sail past and away

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): the spear wounded guy or the other swimming guy?

Craigh: has wrapped his end of the rope around a stanchion so he doesn't drop it.

GM: Swimming guy

GM: spear guy is dead

User is back. (springdew)

GM: no movement

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): so we killed off the talky guy

springdew (Lanek): i gotta go. see y'all later

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Bye Spring!!

seyfert (Raelynn): ehhh that's on him

GM: have a great night Spring

seyfert (Raelynn): bye spring!

Springity Thingity: bye!

'springdew' disconnected

LemonyLemon (Daphene): bye spring!

LorieD (Licornah): (Night Spring!)

GM: You have the two still in the water, up out enough to breathe but not enough for them to be on deck with you

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Yeah, he didn't have to answer, and if he did, he didn't have to give us useless information

Craigh: Think we'll catch any sharks this way?

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Can I try to lasso one of the two?

Youtargim: Are there sharks here?

Indigo: shakes his head

Indigo: What a mess

Youtargim: Maybe those mermen?

Craigh: shrugs

Raelynn: I don't know, but shouldn't we bring them up? We can't just drag them along.

Youtargim: Agreed Indigo

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Ohhh, i misunderstood

Raelynn: Oh! I'd love to meet a merman. Thistle made me jealous I missed the last one.

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Thought there were two MORE in the water

seyfert (Raelynn): I hope not

Indigo: We should get the human to his boat. It can still sail it looks like

Indigo: looks to see how the bugbear boat is doing

Raelynn: Wait go back again?

GM: It is listing to the side, they seem to be tossing cargo into the water to try and lighten the load and shift the balance

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Is there still fighting happening between the two ships?

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): If we keep them it's kind of like kidnapping them

GM: No hand to hand fighting currently but the humans are bringing bows out to shoot at the bugbears

Daphene: You there! Human! What happened?

LemonyLemon (Daphene): to the one in the water we are draggin

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: The pirates stole a flock of sheep

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: We gave chase

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Can I get up there please

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I can't swim

Indigo: They had a boat full of sheep?

Indigo: I didn't see any sheep

GM: It looks like the cargo they are tossing out, could be sheep, some look dead and floating bales of wool

Indigo: looks back at the boat

Craigh: See? There you go Daphene. The burglar and the owner.

Indigo: Yeah that could be sheep

Indigo: Pull him up please

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

GM: Rae hauls him up to the surface

Raelynn: Oh good. I was getting tired.

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: THANK YOU

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Kisses Rae's hand

Raelynn: You're welcome!

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Thank you thank you thank you

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: I thought I was going to drown

Indigo: Do you want us to take you back to your ship?

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Yes

Raelynn: I'm glad you didn't. It's a horrible way to go.

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Let's ram those bastards

Indigo: sighs

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: and sink them

Daphene: Did you go after them intending to kill them, or intending to try and get the stolen goods back?

Indigo: You already did that

seyfert (Raelynn): (pun intended)

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol Carissa

Raelynn: You already lost a crew for some sheep. Breed more and let this loss go.

Raelynn: I'm sure you'll be lambing soon with what's left.

Daphene: nods towards Rae

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Yes they took some of our best Ewes

Raelynn: Farming isn't easy, but is it worth losing more people?

Indigo: So what do we do with that one?

Raelynn: Or potentially almost drowning again?

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: You are here we can't lose

Indigo: points towards Craigh

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: with a ship this big, they will have to give in

Raelynn: Or we trade them their friend for some sheep back, repair their boat, and call it even.

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: And you are not the Navy, you will not keep any of our stuff

Raelynn: Er, if we can talk to them...

Raelynn: HEY! You in the water! Do you understand us?

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] snarls

snarls

[understood by: ]

Raelynn: Um, maybe a different language?

Bugbear: struggling in his bonds, gnashing his teeth

Raelynn [Elvish]: [Translation] What about this one?

What about this one?

[understood by: Licornah, Raelynn]

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] Just let me near you you filthy elf

Just let me near you you filthy elf

[understood by: ]

Bugbear: snarling and showing his teeth to Rae

Raelynn: Yeah, I don't understand you, and that might not be fair, but it means we'll not be able to... parlay or whatever!

Daphene: If you understand us, hold up your left hand and point to the sun!

Raelynn: gives him a big bright smile

LemonyLemon (Daphene): For the record, Daph doesn't seem to have the language chat options

GM: He is wrapped up in the rope arms bound and dangling in the water

Raelynn: shrugs

Raelynn: I tried. All you, Admiral.

Indigo: I don't think he understands

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Ok, then change that to blinking three times

GM: Now she does Lemon

Indigo: You had a good idea to trade the bugbear for what is left of the sheep

Indigo: We have to take the man back anyway

Raelynn: Unfortunately I don't speak other languages or have the right spells for it.

seyfert (Raelynn): (I don't think... lemme double check that)

LorieD (Licornah): (I don't have any interpretation spells)

LemonyLemon (Daphene): We can ask the sheep!

LorieD (Licornah): (Unless it's the sheep LOL)

Indigo: Let's go back and see if we can save any sheep

Craigh: slaps his forehead.

Craigh: I'm an idiot!

Indigo: No you're not!

Raelynn: Why?

Craigh: Yes I am! I have scrolls with Comprehend Languages on them\

Raelynn: Oh! You can use that! I'm sure we'll have time to make more once we get to Dryads Lair.

Howard Plum: You're going to ... touch him?

Daphene: Can you also speak them with one of those?

Howard Plum: No you can only understand them

Craigh: Nope, but whoever casts it can understand them at least. It can be me or Howard.

seyfert (Raelynn): Oh I have speak with dead so if we kill him...

Howard Plum: I don't want to touch him!

Raelynn: That's a good idea!

Howard Plum: Or her ...

Master TMO (Craigh): very piraty of you Carissa

GM: LOL with Carissa

seyfert (Raelynn): :)

GM: and HAH TMO

GM: Mabye Rae is rubbing off on Youtargim

Daphene: Does it matter if we can understand him if we can not communicate back?

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

MadamePsychosis (Howard Plum): lol

seyfert (Raelynn): apparently he isn't as piraty as he thinks

Craigh: Maybe he can understand us, we don't know.

Daphene: Ah, fair point

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: What are you debating?

Raelynn: If you want to try, I'm game. Otherwise I guess we... drop off this guy and... go on our way as he tries to convince us to help?

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Just cut the rope and let it drown

Craigh: So, I guess it's up to me then. Can someone haul him up a bit so I can reach him?

Raelynn: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 11) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 12]

Item: Scroll of Comprehend Languages

Daphene: [CHECK] Strength (vs. Target 17) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 11]

Raelynn: Sorry. My hands are tired.

Craigh: Craigh reads the scroll

Daphene: I've got him

GM: TMO you should be able to drag the effect from the scroll onto Craigh for it to work?

GM: Curious to see if there is any automation on it

Master TMO (Craigh): I built it, so no, there isn't

Raelynn: Look here, mister. We don't kill things willy nilly without good reason so just be quiet for a second.

GM: Ok

Master TMO (Craigh): they don't have scrolls of anything in the item list that I have access to

GM: Checking then TMO

Master TMO (Craigh): I might be able to build one properly now, maybe.

GM: Not working

GM: I think it has to come from a character and not directly from the book

Effect ['Comprehend Languages'] -> [to Craigh]

GM: so just goign with the fact he cast it

GM: that works

Master TMO (Craigh): I pulled the effect from his spell list

Master TMO (Craigh): since he does know the spell, just not memorized today

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] What are you going to do with me

What are you going to do with me

[understood by: ]

GM: No it does not automate that

Master TMO (Craigh): the effect, btw, merely adds "Comprehend Languages" to my character. :) It has no game code effect

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] What are you goign to do with me

What are you goign to do with me

[understood by: Craigh]

Master TMO (Craigh): so, no, I couldn't read that until you gave me the translation

Craigh: Can you understand me?

GM: I added the lanague to Craigh for this conversation

Master TMO (Craigh): sweet

Daphene [Hin]: [Translation] Or can you understand this?

Or can you understand this?

[understood by: Indigo, Daphene]

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] Stop your babbling and just hit me you weak bastard

Stop your babbling and just hit me you weak bastard

[understood by: Craigh]

Daphene [Elvish]: [Translation] Or maybe you understand this?

Or maybe you understand this?

[understood by: Licornah, Raelynn, Daphene]

LemonyLemon (Daphene): she's still missing gnomish

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Although I doubt it matters here

Craigh: Yeah, doesn't seem like he can understand me. Wants to know what we're going to do with him, and/or to stop babbling and just hit him.

Indigo: that sounds like a bugbear

Craigh: Not to mention all the aspersions upon Lanek's mother.

Indigo: They fight

GM: The bugbear does not seem to respond properly to Craigh, it snarls at Daphene when she speaks Elvish, but does not seem to actually understand, just knows what it sounds like

Raelynn: Oh wait! I have an idea!

Raelynn: [SKILL] Artistic Ability [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 12]

GM: Updated now Lemon

Raelynn: takes out some paper, draws a clear sketch about trading bug bear for sheep

Raelynn: shows it to bugbear

Daphene [Gnomish]: [Translation] Don't suppose you understand this? Hellooooo?

Don't suppose you understand this? Hellooooo?

[understood by: Bixi Fizzlebang, Daphene]

GM: Rae wants to trade wood for sheep

LemonyLemon (Daphene): lol

Bugbear [Bugbear]: [Translation] Snarls

Snarls

[understood by: Craigh]

Raelynn: looks to Craigh for translation

Bugbear: Snarls at the drawing Rae shows him

Craigh: Very eloquent.

GM: Hard to say if snarling at the drawing or the fact she is an elf

Raelynn: Well that's rude. I'm not feeling nice anymore.

Raelynn: Do what you want. I tried to help you!

Indigo: Bugbears are like that

Daphene: Can you swim??

Indigo: It's like trying to be nice to goblins. It just doesn't work usually

Daphene: mimes swimming

Raelynn: I thought someone told me about some bugbear named Billy.

GM: It is ignoring the halfling and watching the elf

Craigh: That doesn't sound like a bugbear name.

GM: hungry

Raelynn: gives him a rude gesture

Indigo: Yeah and he was the only one in a every single bugbear we have ever seen

Raelynn: shrugs

Raelynn: I think Jilly told me? And you know Jilly names.

Indigo: Remember the giant basement?

Raelynn: Oh. True.

Raelynn: Hmm. So we just... get rid of him and... um, do pirate things?

Indigo: Let's take the man back and see if we can lasso some of his sheep back to his ship

Youtargim: We should set him down on shore

Craigh: I can unhook the rope at any time.

Youtargim: Or on his boat

Youtargim: We rescued him

Raelynn: And keep dragging the bugbear?

Indigo: yes and give the bugbear back

Raelynn: Well Craigh rescued him.

Craigh: And he hasn't said Thank You yet either.

Indigo: laughs

Youtargim: Leave him on his boat, we can try to get some sheep

Raelynn: No, he's just giving me a very unkind look.

Daphene: Do we have something that floats that we could give him to cling to, then release him?

Raelynn: I'll let you boat people do....whatever we're going to do, then.

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Are you people crazy?

Indigo: Ready to head back?

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Just toss it overboard

Craigh: Depends on who you ask

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: and we can get some of our cargo back

Indigo: He's all lasso'd he can't do anything

Human, Sailor/Fisherman: Turn it in for a reward then

Craigh: peers over the edge of the railing.

Indigo: We'll take you back. Youtargim, ready?

Craigh: technically, we never brought it on board, so it's already overboard.

Youtargim: Yes Admiral Indigo, Setting a course

Youtargim: He says very formally to impress the new people

Youtargim: [SKILL] Seamanship [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 15]

Master TMO (Craigh): boat runs into rocks

GM: chuckles Youtargim steers the Buttercup back around behind the bugbear boat and you cut him loose to flounder a bit before he grabs onto a broken oar

GM: Then you come around the stern of the boat and can help try to gather some of the bundles of wool and soggy sheep trying to swim

Indigo: Here ewe sheep!

GM: HAH

seyfert (Raelynn): Bixi watery fist?

seyfert (Raelynn): love it

Craigh: Has Zayden fixed his fishing rods yet? They could have been helpful here.

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Isn't Bixi cleaning up after breakfast? No one told her

Raelynn: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso [THACO(18)] [ENC: Moderate] [d20-4 = 11]

Attack [11] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Indigo] [Hit-AC: 7 vs. 10 ] [AC: 7 ] [HIT]

GM: That is a hit on a sheep

Craigh: I wish I knew how to Identify. This magic rope the goddess gave me could be useful here.

seyfert (Raelynn): how many times can I try?

Indigo: See! You'll get some sheep back!

GM: Roll four more attacks like that between the two of you with lassos

Craigh: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso, called shot to Arms (Str or arms are pinned) [THACO(17)] [d20-2 = 10]

Attack [10] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Bixi Fizzlebang] [Hit-AC: 7 vs. 10 ] [AC: 7 ] [HIT]

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): There's a gnome in Bywater ...

Raelynn: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso [THACO(18)] [ENC: Moderate] [d20-4 = 15]

Attack [15] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Indigo] [Hit-AC: 3 vs. 10 ] [AC: 3 ] [HIT]

Craigh: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso, called shot to Arms (Str or arms are pinned) [THACO(17)] [d20-2 = 0]

Attack [0] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Youtargim] [AC: 17 ]

LemonyLemon (Daphene): oh

Raelynn: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso [THACO(18)] [ENC: Moderate] [d20-4 = 16]

Attack [16] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Indigo] [Hit-AC: 2 vs. 10 ] [AC: 2 ] [CRITICAL HIT]

seyfert (Raelynn): OOooh did I get two with one hit?

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Gotta have a lasso, that makes sense

Raelynn: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso [THACO(18)] [ENC: Moderate] [d20-4 = -2]

Attack [-2] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Indigo] [Hit-AC: 20 vs. 10 ] [AC: 20 ] [MISS]

Master TMO (Craigh): around the neck

Raelynn: lol

seyfert (Raelynn): thanks for being her training target Indigo

GM: I will give Rae an extra attack

GM: and Youtargim admiring her rope skills

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): worries me that he is so easily hit - will be happy when he gets to land and put on his chain mail again

Raelynn: [ATTACK (M)] Lasso [THACO(18)] [ENC: Moderate] [d20-4 = -2]

Attack [-2] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Indigo] [Hit-AC: 20 vs. 10 ] [AC: 20 ] [MISS]

seyfert (Raelynn): awww....

GM: Ok so only two misses

seyfert (Raelynn): she's impressed with her own rope skills to be fair

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): yes both of you have been on fire with the lasso'ing

GM: so you end up with a total of 4 sheep

GM: and one bonus bundle of wool

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Yeah, that's pretty good. I know from experience (in minecraft) that it's very hard to get sheep out of the water

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): lol

seyfert (Raelynn): lol

GM: and get them dragging over to the fisherman's boat

GM: To conclude the encounter

GM: What are you going to tell / do with the fisherman and bugbears

GM: Currently the bugbears are trying to salvage their boat and it seems they are trying to move away

seyfert (Raelynn): let them fight it out?

seyfert (Raelynn): leave them to fate?

GM: they might still have some stolen loot

GM: the humans are gathering things and trying to repair the hole in the hull to at least let less water in

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): bugbears are scooting away. I'm good with ignoring them if everyone else is

Master TMO (Craigh): "Murder isn't nice unless you're nobility"

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Yeah, leave them to it. If the humans want to go after them again, then let those murderous idiots at it

LorieD (Licornah): (Sorry I need to run all - night)

'LorieD' disconnected

seyfert (Raelynn): ignoring is fine with me

GM: Night Lorie

seyfert (Raelynn): if the fishermen want to keep fighting that's on them

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): Goodnight Lorie!

Daphene: goodnight

LemonyLemon (Daphene): ooc

GM: Ok

GM: So letting both sides just be

Indigo: We got you some sheep back so it wasn't a complete loss

GM: and moving off towards your destination

GM: which you will reach by this evening

MadamePsychosis (Indigo): We helped them

seyfert (Raelynn): saved one from drowning and some of their sheep

Effect ['Comprehend Languages'] -> [EXPIRED] [on Craigh]

The time is 5:00 PM

Daphene: Yep, did the best we could!

LemonyLemon (Daphene): ooc again

Weather Report Location: Velikaya River Forest, Mid Spring Day 2, Afternoon Precipitation: Clear Skies Wind: No Wind Temperature: Cold 45°F / 7°C

LemonyLemon (Daphene): Ethics is always debatable lol

GM: It will be fun when Lemon switches back and forth quickly during a disagreement,

Master TMO (Craigh): with Craigh hanging around to stick his foot in the way to trip one of them

GM: In any case you are now at the final portoin of the story arc

MadamePsychosis: yay

seyfert: wooo
