Michael: Hangs head in Shame
BOB Never Michael
BOB It is ok to miss days
Lisa: Michael did you read the story chat or at least the summary from last week?
Michael: I'm still knocked on my ass. It's not Covid, but man it sucks
Michael: :(
BOB no one should every feel pressure
Lisa: lots of good info
Lorie: Well we discussed bartering your character off for some dragon eggs, but BOB said we could do that at the cost of an alignment change
Lorie: :D
Michael: I have it up next to me if needed
Lorie: (Just kidding)
Michael: LOL
BOB Lorie has a point
BOB It would be a much easier adventure that way
Lisa: lol Lorie
Lorie: (I think that's how I remember last week... ignore me Michael)
Lorie: ( ;O) )
Michael: To be honest, no Lisa. That would have been the proper thing to do. I have not been my right self this past week. I do have the website open though
Lorie: (Being sick sucks... we get it)
Lisa: yes this flu that's been going around is awful
BOB My quick update is Tonight, watches, then the Salamander pool, next week (for those that live) DUN DUN DUN, you get the map and go to the pyramid for the Fire Eggs
Michael: No no no. Being sick sucks. Being sick with everyone being around you also sick sucks Far more. I wanted to murder my family
Lemon: No, seriously, take care of yourself. Bixi can easily kill a session all by herself chatting with the locals
BOB No game next week
Lorie: (Anyone know where that Silver Dragon got off to? Would make this adventure a lot easier... IJS... )
BOB and LOL with Lemon
BOB HAH Lorie
Lemon: Serious question for BOB though, and whoever else... what's the sweetest wine I will be able to order from the grocery store? moscato? prosecco?
Lorie: (:: frowns that no one befriended the dragon :: )
BOB What are you looking for Lemon, why sweet?
Lorie: (ICED WINE is the SWEETEST if you can get it...otherwise Moscato)
Lemon: Because, as a friend of mine recently said, I run on sugar
BOB chuckles
Lorie: (Pink Moscato is sweeter than white)
Lemon: Unfortunately no ice wine at the grocery store. I have had it once though, and it was delicious
TMO: Coke is sweeter
BOB you actually want a nice warm wine, a red most likely, to be calm, and relaxed with still the little bit of extra
BOB So tonight
BOB you are on watches
Lemon: Yeah, no, I do not want that. Last time I got wine I mixed it with like sprite or something to make it sweeter. Thank you Lorie
BOB Talwin is up first so that others can update him on what happened when his head cold was just too much and then that spicy stew made everything come out the other end too quickly
BOB Who else wants to be up with him in those circumstances? grins
Lisa: lol
Michael: Just finished the summary. Holy smokes, I forgot how funny you m ake them
Michael: Getting into Character now
BOB That was TMO
Michael: It rotates right? Whoever did last weeks, I laughed
Michael: :)
Carissa: (I have to get off soon)
BOB That is Dragonslayers After Dark Carissa
Carissa: (and TMO has volunteered to do this week ;) )
Michael (Talwin): lol
BOB But we understand ;P
TMO: Carissa blackmailed me into doing last week's, and I tried to live up to her standard. I like that you couldn't tell the difference
TMO: wait... what?
BOB Go do what you need and come back hopefully soon
Carissa: lol
Carissa: will let you know - have fun all!
Michael (Talwin): All of you are Characters :)
'Carissa' disconnected

Howard Plum: I am glad you are feeling better Talwin
Talwin: Thank you
Talwin: Nasty Cold
BOB then Bixi, Criagh, and Youtargim
Licornah: :: weaving on watch ::
Howard Plum: I'm sorry the stew did not sit well with you
Talwin: In this of all places!
Talwin: Shakes Head
BOB Hold your head over a lava pit that will clear it
Talwin: Don't think it was the food. Nasty catch in my breath
Licornah: Well, the steam coming off the swamp should do wonders for your system
Michael (Talwin): Shut up bob. lOL
Howard Plum: I am glad you are over it now since we are heading into much more danger
Licornah: :: makes face at smell of swamp ::
Talwin: Winces
Talwin: Right.
Howard Plum: Do you think I could talk to you for a moment?
Talwin: Well, this journey couldn't possibly surprise me more hten it already has, that's for certain
Talwin: Sure
Talwin: What's on your Mind?
Licornah: :: continues weaving ::
Howard Plum: Without the sword?
Talwin: Cocks head
Howard Plum: I mean, put it down for a minute or two
Talwin: Putting it down makes no difference, he can still talk to me?
Lisa (Howard Plum): is that true? thinking of Kel's sword ...
Michael (Talwin): When I threw the sword to avoid the dissolving, we still had a lively conversation :)
Michael (Talwin): about how pissed it was I threw him LOL
BOB The sword has to be ON Talwin, either on his hip or in his hand
Howard Plum: Than that would be a very odd magical sword and not the norm
Michael (Talwin): Oh, never mind then
Talwin: Shrugs.
Talwin: Hey ghoing to set you down for a moment
BOB It has to be close to Talwin to be able to reach his mind to talk
Talwin: Puts blankets together in anice little bed, and tucks the sword in
BOB It reacts still and will start to talk when close enough again
Talwin: Be right back
Talwin: Waves to Howard
Talwin: About fifteen feet away might do it!
Talwin: Walks 15 feet
Howard Plum: Thank you. I just thought I should let you know something.
BOB I do love that the zzzz is on the sword icon up top as Talwin does that
Howard Plum: What you do with that is up to you
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Michael (Talwin): Bob :)
BOB becasue Lemon has not interacted with that Token
Talwin: Nods. Shoot
Howard Plum: sighs and takes a deep breath
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): angry mumbling
Howard Plum: Fire gems are known to mages as rare and with an extraordinary purpose
Talwin: Nods
Howard Plum: Fire gems can destroy magic items
Howard Plum: I do not know why your master would ask for them but I thought I should tell you.
Talwin: Absently mindedly reaches to ressure that the pommel of Reven is safetly at his side
Talwin: Cuts of the gesture
Talwin: Begins to sweat
Talwin: Y...yes?
Howard Plum: You could make your sword a sword that does not put ideas into your head
Howard Plum: If you chose to
(LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJzqwNMR_Uk">(LINK)</a>
Talwin: Begins to sweat more profusely
Talwin: Man it's warm tonight
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): So... when he picks the sword back up, the sword and figure out all this from reading his mind or whatever, yes?
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): Because Reven has THOUGHTS
Howard Plum: It is something for you to think about
Talwin: Beings itching at at his palm absently
Talwin: S..sure. Thanks
Lisa (Howard Plum): only if he directs his thoughts isn't it? it doesn't just randomly reads his mind does it?
Talwin: Regains some more compsure
BOB Correct to Lisa, unless Talwin wishes to hear the sword he does not
Talwin: Thank you for your advice. I will take it under advisement
Howard Plum: You know you cannot save that soul don't you?
Talwin: Scoffs. Save?
Talwin: I don't think that soul wants to be saved Howard. I think it wants to be a weapon that will cause Havoc
Talwin: Hesistates
Lorie (Licornah): (chants quietly :: Lava, Lava, Lava :: )
Talwin: As if thinking
Howard Plum: You must either live with it as long as you keep the sword, destroy it or find a way to get it to move along to its afterlife
Talwin: I...don't see the problem with leaving it as it is. Unless it wants to move on?
TMO: (or pawn it off on a hapless young adventurer)
Lisa (Howard Plum): yes that too
Michael (Talwin): At this point, Talwin would probably turn Golumn rather then let that happen
BOB Turn?
Talwin: It's....hes...a remarkable weapon and magical craft. Thus far, it hasn't forced me to do something that I would have done prior
BOB um
TMO: lol
Howard Plum: I just wanted to make you aware. In case when you return with her prize, she has ideas of using them other than powering a lighthouse
Talwin: I mean, ...
Talwin: Sharpens gaze
Talwin: You think she lied to me? And might use them to destroy my Sword
Howard Plum: It is hard for us to understand the relationship since we only see a small portion
Talwin: Darkenss clearly in his eyes at the thought
Howard Plum: I don't think she would do it herself
Talwin: Scowls deeper
Talwin: She would have ME? Do it?
Howard Plum: But she may ask you to think of such things
Talwin: Grasps again absentmindely at his side...
Howard Plum: She said it was cursed if I recall correctly
Talwin: Listening out of Respect of his friend, but clearly wishing this conversation was over
Talwin: Nods rather stiffly
Howard Plum: I am simply alerting you to what fire gems can do. I don't know this centaur. Maybe she wants them for the lighthouse only
Talwin: Nods again. Then sighs
Howard Plum: I would feel badly if I knew of the power of the gems and said nothing
Talwin: Yes...I won't really know until we are back
Howard Plum: That is all I had to say
-> Licornah: Licornah does know that any intelligent item means that a soul is trapped/encapuslated/bound into that item willing or unwilling
Talwin: Rather ashamed of letting his tempter show,
Talwin: I...yes. I appreciate you beign honest with me
Howard Plum: And yes if possible to get one for Branwyn while we are taking them, I knows he would appreciate it
Howard Plum: she
Licornah: :: nod ::
Talwin: More sure of himself
Talwin: Beams with Pride
Talwin: Actually I had already decided
Lorie (Licornah): (The red dragon population will dwindle after this adventure)
Talwin: If there was only one, I was taking it to Branwny, rather then Alexandria
Howard Plum: You mustn't do that!
Talwin: Smiles
Talwin: I thought about it ever since she said it
Howard Plum: She would want you to have your training
Talwin: Shakes Head
Talwin: I'm a simple swordsman. Branwny is...
Howard Plum: Accomplished and needing for little
Talwin: Waves hand parallel to the ground and waves it back and forth
Talwin: More important?
Talwin: If i"m saying that right?
Howard Plum: She would not say so
Talwin: Shrugs
Talwin: She won't have an opprotunity to say so until it's right in front of her. I would hope she would use it to further all of our goals rather then just mine
Talwin: Think about it Howard
Michael (Talwin): I'm a Swordsmaster. It's important to me. But think of what she could DO with that?
Talwin: I'm a Swordsmaster. It's important to me. But think of what she could DO with that?
Howard Plum: She has a habit of coming into contact with evil so having a weapon to destroy evil magic she would like it but there are other ways
Talwin: How much better her--and therefore our positions would be
Talwin: Points
Talwin: Exactly!
Talwin: Remember that blasted dag......
Talwin: Brain breaks slightly to avoid coinnecting the dagger to his own precious.....
Talwin: Sweat breaks out again
Howard Plum: And she got rid of that. Not to worry. Now is the time to focus on your own betterment
BOB Talwin and Howard should tell Licornah about that dagger
Talwin: As doublethink begins to fry his higher logic
Talwin: Not the dagger, not the sword, not the dagger, not the sword, not the dagger, not the sword, not th edagger, not the sword, noth the datter, not the sword, not the dagger, not the sword
Howard Plum: Branwyn picked up an intelligent evil dagger from Lady Macbeth a drow queen in one of our prior adventures
Talwin: Sweating more
Licornah: :: looks up from her weaving :: She did what now?
Talwin: It's ah....
Licornah: I'm assuming she destroyed it?
Howard Plum: It scalded her palm and took years to get rid of the evil stain on her palm from her using it
Talwin: Eyes glancing to the sword, to make sure it's where it was left
Licornah: :: frowns and shakes head :: Mages, am I right?
Talwin: To his own eyes, it glows a dull radiance....
Talwin: he...hehe. Yeah. Mages......
Howard Plum: Yes after we defeated the shadows and Macbeth she dropped it in a witch's cauldron and it was destroyed
Licornah: :: Looks at Talwin ::
Talwin: Knuckels are white, but regaining facial composure
Howard Plum: Oh pick up your sword again Talwin. I'm sorry. I just wanted your head clear for a moment
Licornah: Talwin, you know... now would be a good time for a heart to heart with your traveling companion
BOB Lemon would have liked that Macbeth story arc
Talwin: Squeaks
Talwin: Nope
Licornah: Make sure you know who you're traveling into battle with
Talwin: NOt a good time
Talwin: I need some ah, fresh air.
Licornah: :: shrug :: As you see fit, Talwin
Talwin: Walkes with purpose, but slowly back to the Sword. Picks it up and resheathes it
Talwin: Grumbles
Licornah: :: resumes weaving,and shaking her head, thinking of the Drow. Thinks of her friend... ::
Talwin: We need to talk soon. But I need a moment
Talwin: mumbling to the Sword
BOB I will let Michael roll the encounter check
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: What troubles you, friend?
Licornah: :: mumbles :: Picking up drow weapons ... only a mage :: laughs ::
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Apparently an encounter check friend! Be on your gaurd. We shall speak later!
Howard Plum: It was not a good thing but our intervening stopped a war
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: en garde!
Talwin: [d20 = 2]
Michael (Talwin): You are shittibg me!
Howard Plum: It was because she was a mage that she picked it up. Talwin might have picked it up and it would have killed him most likely
Howard Plum: It needed to be her
Licornah: :: looks up :: OH I'm glad it stopped a war, but the Drow are just very resourceful with their magic.
Talwin: I got lucky with mine!
Talwin: Grins!
Licornah: Silvermoon gets all sorts of travelers who tangle with the Drow on the wrong side
Licornah: and many Drow are not kind to outsiders...
Talwin: Yea...we know
Talwin: Remembering the battle...
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): It was Bixi's first!
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): She just couldn't carry it lol
Howard Plum: They were trying to conquer the grey elves
Talwin: I always had a respect for magic, but that day was...something else
Vapor rats: [ATTACK (M)] [THACO(19)] [d20 = 4]
Attack [4] ->[ATTACK (M)] [at Howard Plum] [Hit-AC: 15 vs. 10 ] [AC: 15 ] [MISS]
Lisa (Howard Plum): think it was grey elves
Howard Plum: EEK!
TMO: and Ilero's last, iirc.
Howard Plum: What was that?!?
BOB Suddenly Howard feels a SWARM go by his leg
Talwin: Talwin, instantly alert
Talwin: What was what?
Howard Plum: Rustling!
BOB He can make an observation check or Wisdom
BOB which ever is better
Howard Plum: Many many tiny creatures!
Howard Plum: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 8) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 4]
Lisa (Howard Plum): yay!
BOB Howard spots a swarm of small rats, misty, Vapor Rats
Michael (Talwin): Bob, I've run into an issue again where i'ts not letting me roll obs. Going to logout and backin again okay?
Howard Plum: It's a swarm of misty vapor rats!!!
BOB around his legs and into the group
BOB stay Michael
Michael (Talwin): OK
Howard Plum: They will bite all the sleepers!
BOB Will fix afterwards
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): ghost rats!
Talwin: Grunts, seeing the misty vapor coelese and whisp as ghostly rats swarm
[TURN] Howard Plum
Talwin: Grins as he grips Reven
Talwin: And this is why I love you
Talwin: Pulls the Sword
Licornah: :: stands and then kneels down :: Hello, my friends, what are you looking for this time of night?
Howard Plum: There are too many to kill one by one I think!
BOB Howard then Talwin then Licornah
Howard Plum: watches Licornah
Talwin: Are we talking to them or killing htem?
Talwin: Voice a little high pitched
Lorie (Licornah): (I always want to parlay with the dragon... )
Lisa (Howard Plum): if Licornah can get rid of them I'm all for that
BOB They are moving through Howard to Talwin
Talwin: Looks to Licornah
Lorie (Licornah): (I'm guessing you all think differently ... I'm usually last, so I don't parlay)
BOB Licornah can interact also
Talwin: Seeing her mouthing
Talwin: Kill or talk?
Talwin: Need to know quick
Lisa (Howard Plum): hold for Licornah's action
Talwin: Focusing on the Swarm coming ever closer
Talwin: Eyes Licornha
Talwin: Grona
Talwin: Hold
Licornah : [Translation] My friends are visiting the area, looking to see the sights... what are you looking for?
<font color="#000000">My friends are visiting the area, looking to see the sights... what are you looking for?

Talwin: Mumbling to Reven, we still might have an opportunity, give it a moment
Lisa (Howard Plum): otherwise I suggest waking everyone to get them out of the way and then setting them all on fire - but that's just me :D
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): Yeah, if you ever want to try something, you should speak up. I think most of us would be fine holding until you get a chance to try whatever you're thinking
Michael (Talwin): (Oh shoot, Lisa, that was a good idea. Sorry)
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: All I want to do is destroy evil with you. And those are definitely evil!
Lisa (Howard Plum): last resort time
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Kill them! Save your idiot friends!
Lanek: snores
BOB As Licornah speaks with them they pause and become gaseous (Gaseous form effect)
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): You know, for an "evil" sword, I really don' thtink you are that bad.
Licornah : [Translation] No need to be afraid... as I said, we're visitors.

Howard Plum: Where did they go?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I'm not evil! I'm just imprisioned. Being imprisoned in a sword makes you realize there's no time for hesitation!
Lanek: Advanced Effect ['Punching;BSTR: 0;'] -> [to Lanek] [by Punching]
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Kill the baddies!

Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Yeah, while I wait for this interesting conversation between the rat pack and licornah to conclude, I need to warn you. Howard says Fire Gems can destroy you. We can't be having that so...any ideas?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: WHAT! I'm a sword, how should I know!? Why doesn't this Howard have any ideas? If he is truly your friend, he should be willing to tell you how to stop such a thing

Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Er, no? I think Howard told me because he wanted me to be aware of what could happen and be sure that only I had a say in what may happen. I don't think he left anything out.
BOB After talking with Licornah
Licornah : [Translation] Be well
<font color="#000000">Be well

[TURN] Talwin
Licornah: :: puts her hand up to Talwin and Howard :: They are here for dinner :: points in the direction of the corpse they referenced ::
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Perhaps not him, but think of the others... some of them have been acting very suspiciously
Howard Plum: The dragon thing?
Howard Plum: They can have that!
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I only know this because YOU know this. I can not see into their minds.
Howard Plum: backs away from it and moves to stand in front of a group of the sleepers
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Yeah....I think I'm not the best reference you should be going off of. Remember I almost strangled a citizen who irritated me
Licornah: :: Nods :: They are hungry
Talwin: Stands Aside. "Help youselves"
Licornah: :: sits back down and resumes weaving ::
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: You were probably just hungry
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): I needed a Snickers. I wasnt' myself

Howard Plum: Feeling then brush my ankles was ... horrible
Michael (Talwin): you know what I mean :)
Licornah: I have never seen one of those ... very nice to meet a new creature out here
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: In the words of the immortal bard Ms. Swift, "Don't say I didn't, say I didn't warn yaaaaa"
Howard Plum: I think one of them tried to bite me
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): ....I can't take this conversation seriously at this point....Give me a moment while I die laughing
Howard Plum: Are they ghost rats? They looked like they disappeared
Licornah: :: looks up :: Oh and just to confirm, there are fire breathing things all around they say...
Howard Plum: sighs
Howard Plum: Good to know
Michael (Talwin): Just breaking the fourthwall all over the place...
Licornah: :: ponders :: I think they have a form that allows them to not be solid? Transparent maybe Gaseous?
BOB Love what Lemon has done with the sword and making sure everyone reads the chat afterwards
Lisa (Howard Plum): yes everyone needs to read the chat! :)
Lorie (Licornah): (I hope the sword is being honest and truthful, just like every possessed sword should be :O) )
Michael (Talwin): LOL
BOB lol
Lisa (Howard Plum): lol
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): All I will say is that the sword clearly has great taste

Lanek: vanishes to take leak and comes back
BOB See lots of space
Indigo: I dunno. Some times they are quiet I guess
Daphene: Yes, there are some more... imposing personalities, I suppose.

Indigo: Hello hello hello!

Lemon (Daphene): Will they leave the bones? I'm assuming baby dragon bones are somehow useful?
Michael (Talwin): I'm an Idiot!
BOB You heard bones snapping
Michael (Talwin): Your an iditot!
Lemon (Daphene): That happens sometimes when you chomp down too quickly, doesn't mean they're EATING them
Lisa (Indigo): sucking the marrow from the bones. slurp slurp

Lorie (Licornah): (I like a School House Rock Ghost who knows their grammar)
Bixi Fizzlebang: A ghost!?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Hello ghost!? How are you?
BOB so quiet
Bixi Fizzlebang: shrugs "Maybe it left"
Craigh: Maybe they were hallucinating
Ghost: Dreaming
Craigh: Did anyone say dreaming? I said hallucinating.
Bixi Fizzlebang: It's just me and you, and I didn't say that
Bixi Fizzlebang: Do we have anyone here who can talk to dead people? Maybe we should wake someone?
Craigh: (was "so quiet" what the ghost said Bob, or you?)
Craigh: Oh, I can talk to dead people. It's easy.
BOB The chat is correct

BOB That is the end of the third watch when it happens
Craigh: You can talk to dead people too. See?
Ghost: Listening
Bixi Fizzlebang: Well, sorry then!
Bixi Fizzlebang: (to craigh) That's unfortunate. I would have liked to help a ghost
Bixi Fizzlebang: Unless it was a bad ghost
Craigh: Hmm.. yeah, I understand.
Craigh: Let me try something off the wall
Craigh: "Listening"
GM: [4d100 = 196]
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): oh no, what did you do
TMO (Craigh): (that's ominous)
BOB Craigh is Listening
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is that bad?
Lorie (Licornah): (are we all awake now?)

Craigh: [SKILL] Detect Noise [PERCENT:Detect Noise] (vs. Target 5) [FAILURE by 56] [d100 = 61]
TMO (Craigh): would you prefer an OBS?
BOB So Craigh does not hear anything
Bixi Fizzlebang: Well? Doesn't seem like anything happened
Bixi Fizzlebang: Were you listening hard enough?
TMO (Craigh): clarification: Craigh *said* the word "Listening". He was repeating the Ghost's last words
BOB Yes
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi is still accusing him of not being good at listening
TMO (Craigh): ok
Craigh: I dunno. Did you hear anything?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Not from the ghost
Bixi Fizzlebang: I hear a lot of snoring
Craigh: Okay, next try. "Dreaming"

TMO (Craigh): (shocked! Shocked I am!)
Craigh: Well, maybe it will say something else for us to try.
Craigh: What do you say, Ghost?
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ghost, do you want to be talking or listening?
Ghost: Learning
Craigh: gestures for Bixi to give it her shot.
Bixi Fizzlebang: ugh, fine
Bixi Fizzlebang: Learning
TMO (Craigh): *lightning bolt strikes*
BOB the soft call of a night bird
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It's all Craigh's fault!
BOB saying all the way all the way
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Is this ghost only 16?
BOB grins
Bixi Fizzlebang: Learning what?
Spring (Lanek): trying to tell us it's a one winged dove?
BOB nothing

Bixi Fizzlebang: I give up! This is all you, Craigh
BOB and morning comes
BOB Stretches
BOB looking around

Indigo: Hey the ghost is still here
Indigo: Caigh is counting!
Licornah: :: smiles :: Good morning Ghost... let us know if there are any sights to see this way :: points ::
Craigh: It's our friendly Verb Ghost
Indigo: It only knows ing words
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): At least it didn't ghost us
Lisa (Indigo): nice one
Craigh: Hey ghost, what do you think about 'discovering'? Or 'dying'?
Licornah: :: continues :: I'm sure Bixi :: motions to her :: Already asked, but if you have a name other than Ghost, let us kow. I'm Licornah.
Lorie (Licornah): (Kow = know)
Bixi Fizzlebang: It said listening and learning. Maybe it just wants to hang out with us and see what's going on
Craigh: And Dreaming.
Michael (Talwin): Talwin just listenes, afraid if he says anything the Ghost will try and talk to him
Indigo: Maybe it's a spy ghost!
Talwin: Talwin just listenes, afraid if he says anything the Ghost will try and talk to him
Licornah: :: nods :: Well, last night we met ghostly rats, so maybe this is their minder?
Bixi Fizzlebang: But not "hang out" (and that is an inside joke for when Carissa reads the chat.)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc
TMO (Craigh): got enough voices in your head already Talwin?
Licornah: This is much nicer than the fire breathing creatures I expected to be our downfall
Talwin: You mean...the Pied Piper Licornah?
Licornah: :: looks :: All I did is wish them well on their meal....
Talwin: Smiles
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: You should check and make sure this ghost hasn't done something to your friends
Talwin: Thank you again for that by the way.
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I've heard of ghosts that can steal a body without anyone knowing the difference
Licornah: :: shrug :: It was nothing...
Lanek: if they only do -ing words, mebbe we should call them Ing
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): I"m sorry, did you not hear bixi waking us up over and over? I'm pretty sure she's the same ann...........let's just leave it there yeah?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: The purple one might be helping this force
Licornah: :: resumes preparing for the pacing ahead and pondering how to avoid the pitfalls ::
Lanek: them the ghost, not them the rats
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Uh....are...you sure? Doesn't seem like much is different
Indigo: That's a good name for them
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Fine, if you won't trust me, just be wary.
Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 7]

Michael (Talwin): Bob. That roll is in response to Reven
Michael (Talwin): And specifically regarding his concern
Talwin: Grim faced
Talwin: Grim faced
Indigo: You all right Youtargim? You were strange last night.
Michael (Talwin): Does Talwin notice anything different......?
Michael (Talwin): About the group?
User has gone AFK. (Lorie)
Daphene: Yout is fine, he just wanted an excuse to snuggle up with Rae
BOB I would say that Talwin notices that the group is very cohesive on paying attention to Bixi's and Indigo's ideas about a ghost
Daphene: stage whispers to Howard "I think you should go for it before they get too close"
Indigo: Ohhh are they doing that now?
Youtargim: Thank you Indigo
Youtargim: and ummm I will let Rae speak for what she likes
Talwin: Hey uh
Talwin: Guys?
Indigo: Hmmm
Talwin: I'm not uh, magically inclined per say
Howard Plum: looks at his feet
Talwin: But at the risk of sounding paranoid...
Ghost: Sounding
Talwin: Is anyone feeling different? or a little....off? Maybe?
Daphene: Well, I'm not feeling great after getting blasted by that dragon...
Talwin: Like....they have their own personal Reven hanging out with them? Maybe?
Indigo: No
Craigh: That's a new one.
Talwin: Struggles to find words
Indigo: Just they ghost thing
Bixi Fizzlebang: You mean the ghost?
Bixi Fizzlebang: We all can hear the ghost, it's different
Talwin: Yeah. Don't feel like you are being er...posessed or anything?
Talwin: Shrugs Shoulders
Indigo: Nope. Do you?
Talwin: Passed on Reven's warning that's all
Craigh: Nope, I don't think so.
Talwin: Grins
Bixi Fizzlebang: [CAST] Cure Moderate Wounds [at Daphene]
Daphene: [SAVE] vs. Spell [EFFECTS +3] [d20+3 = 20]
Save [20] [Target 16] -> [for Daphene] [vs Bixi Fizzlebang] [TARGET-SAVED]
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): um
Talwin: I uh, think there is not enough room for anyone else in my head except Reven frankly. I feel the same
BOB LOL Oh yeah we all can hear the ghost no big deal, how was your night? did you sleep well? what is for breakfast?
Michael (Talwin): Hey! I'm trying to take it seriously :)
Indigo: You can hear the ghost too though Talwin?
Michael (Talwin): I even passed along the SWORDS warning. Come on here :_
Talwin: Grunts
Indigo: So its not just us
Bixi Fizzlebang: You're accusing US of being possessed??
TMO (Craigh): well, it seems completely harmless, right? Other than that 4d100 roll on Craigh's psyche that had no visible effects. ;)
Talwin: No, I heard Bixi aruging with herself last night
Talwin: So....
Talwin: Yeah
Indigo: Hey Ing! Are you helping or hurting?
Michael (Talwin): LOL TMO!
Bixi Fizzlebang: [CAST] Cure Moderate Wounds [at Daphene]

Bixi Fizzlebang: I was arguing with Craigh!
Craigh: So you didn't just hear the ghost say 'Sounding'?
Talwin: Right...about the Ghost right?
BOB I see what is wrong Lemon
Indigo: I didn't hear sounding
Bixi Fizzlebang: Yeah, but not about whether it EXISTED, we were arguing about HOW to talk to it
Talwin: No I heard that.BUt honestly, with Reven in my head, most of the time I tune out anything that I don't notice is directly aimed at me
Talwin: Sorry
Talwin: Hey
Talwin: Holds palms up
Bixi Fizzlebang: But yes, I did hear sounding
Bixi Fizzlebang: Ing, how are you feeling?
Talwin: I passed on the Warning., if you feel fine, I'll drop it
Craigh: But Indigo didn't? Weird.
Talwin: Just never known him to really give much a shit about you all
GM: [+1] [d10+1 = 9]
Craigh: Wel, maybe not weird.
Talwin: Winces
Daphene's health adjusted by +9
Talwin: At the bluntness of his own words
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I DON'T CARE ABOUT THEM! I don't want them to hurt YOU
Indigo: Not just now. A ways back I did
Craigh: I don't konw that I'm 'fine' with it, but so far it seems harmless. Could just be a smart MockingJay, for all I know.
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Hey you never know, Maybe I just got them to give you some gruding repsect and wariness of your oberservational talents
Daphene: The most insidious evils start as seeming to be harmless
Talwin: Right
Talwin: Cocks head
Daphene: glances at Talwin's sword
Talwin: Smiles slightly evily
Talwin: I would know
Craigh: Oh, and thank the sword for it's concern.
TMO (Craigh): (its)
Talwin: Oh he gave me an update, he's more worried about you being possessed and harming me then about you. SOrry. He did seem outraged enough for me to give that update
TMO (Craigh): that's the one confusing grammar rule I consistently get wrong
Talwin: I still love you though!
Lisa (Indigo): map is weird for me I only see Indigo and when I click on him the light doesn't change but not important at the moment
BOB No Map
Craigh: I don't think you've got much to worry about from me, but sure.
Talwin: Seriously, if you are okay, I'll drop it. But I'm not a priest, healer, or ...well much of anything
Talwin: But if you are fine, I trust you
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Your intellect is failing you. You think the possessed person would ADMIT to such a thing? No. The spirit will try to blend in
Craigh: As fine as ever, I suppose. Hopefully that stays.
Craigh: How are you holding up, by the way? Feeling better this morning?
Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm a little hungry, but otherwise fine
Bixi Fizzlebang: How are the ghost rats?
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): For heaven's sake Reven. I'm not going to go stab people on the offchance they might be possessed. We'll just be on the lookout for the next couple of days for any spirit., If we see it, I give you my word that if it's well...evil? By my definition not yours...you can be the first to have fun with it. Deal?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I said nothing about stabbing people! But now that you mention it...
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): And hey, I still don't know all your abiltiies. If you see the damn thing and I don't, just tell me where to swing.
Image: Fire pond
Michael (Talwin): (Sorry, having some of the weirest onversations with Reven is both fun and attention splitting. Bear with me :) )
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Just watch them when they get to the gems. That warning, accompanied with how powerful these are... well... there certainly could be evil forces trying to sneak into this mission
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Goddamit. I thought I was already Paranoid, you are making me Freaking Mental! I do mean that in a good way
The time is 9:00 AM
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Don't randomly stab, but don't blindly trust
BOB Heading out into the Fire Swamps
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Yeah, well. This is a partnership. I never said I was infallible. If you notice something, it's better to say something
BOB There is a new map you will arrive on shortly
TMO (Craigh): We've had the Rats of Unusual Density, what's next?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I just want y'all to know that Talwin keeps bringing up murding y'all even though the sword didn't say that. lol
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: You never believe me
BOB LOL with Lemon and it is an excellent thing that you have done to create that chaos for Michael/Talwin
Lisa (Indigo): lol TMO
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): TMO, love that
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Trust but Verify my friend. I never disbelieve you. I am aware that perception is important. Now shut up I'm trying to figure out if I need to stab someone....
Talwin: Talwin is friendly as always, but has an odd glint in his eyes, as if searching for odd whisps, or something that is itching his skin. Something maybe just hovering around his companions.
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: (lol, for that, Reven will indeed shut up)
Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 9]
Talwin: Talwin is squiniting almost comically at his compainnos
Talwin: Hand grapsed tightly around the pommel of Reven
Daphene: Do you have something in your eye, Talwin?
Daphene: Here, let me look
BOB This map is a bit of a mess but you can get a good feel for the chaos and fire and such in the swamps
Indigo: is looking down to make sure he doesn't step on a fire spout thing
Daphene: attempts to grab his head
TMO (Craigh): grrreat.... violenty paranoid greatsword master...
Talwin: Jumps back
Talwin: Hissing
Talwin: Calms down
Talwin: Er
Talwin: Sorry
Daphene: Wow, fine, have painful eyes for all I care
Talwin: Im uh
Talwin: Trying to look for something
Talwin: Rather sheepishly
Talwin: My bad
Daphene: It helps to see things if you open your eyes
Talwin: (that being said, does Talwin notice anything?)
Michael (Talwin): (that being said, does Talwin notice anything?)
Talwin: I think they are clean Reven
BOB You mean other than the fire in the bushes all around you?
Talwin: Mumbles to the Sword
Talwin: Turnign his attention back to the Swamp
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Fool, you will not be able to tell just by looking. Watch, and wait, and be wary.
BOB You can see as up ahead you descend deeping down into the swamps, the landscape with flames and smoke all around you
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Reven, honestly you'll need to help. I'm kind of trying to avoid stepping into a magma pit at the moment. Cant you like, IDK use part of my attention span or sometihng?
Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 15]
Indigo: At least it shouldn't be cold over there
Bixi Fizzlebang: Any of those peppers yet?
Talwin: Nods
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: If I could, I would already have done so, I can guarantee you that
BOB Bixi can see that these plants are adapted to the waves of smoke and occasional flame that sweeps through
BOB and yes she can spot several plants where there are small peppers, bright red
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Grumbels
Michael (Talwin): Maybe we should see if we could expand your repetoir of abilities with a mage. You never know. I tcould help
Talwin: Maybe we should see if we could expand your repetoir of abilities with a mage. You never know. I tcould help
Talwin: Whispers to Reven
BOB I did not use the swamp effects and the fire effects to hopefully make the map quick and easy to use
BOB You can picture the water lapping and the fire fanning
Michael (Talwin): (Are we on the Fire Pond Map bob?)
Licornah: are we entering via the green trees or the stonehenge area?
BOB Yes
Michael (Talwin): (Or did I get confused)
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: YOUR FRIEND JUST TOLD YOU THE MAGES WANT TO DESTROY ME
BOB Upper right corner
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: If you are the corrupted one, I'm going to be so pissed
Bixi Fizzlebang: Can I harvest some of those peppers?
Bixi Fizzlebang: ooc but whatever, still works
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): fudge
BOB Sure
Bixi Fizzlebang: harvests peppers
Lisa (Indigo): we're very tiny if I don't super zoom in
BOB It is the scale
Lisa (Indigo): we have lots of staggering to do if we need to get to the pool in the middle
Lorie (Licornah): (Map centering doesn't work for me... the arrow button does nothing)
BOB to protect you from the reach of their weapons
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): I think you misunderstand. He said that is what Fire Gems could be used FOR, not that he or any mages would necessarily do it to you. Besides, you scare people with your very presence. I seriously doubt a mage would dare approach you for shits and Grins Reven, even with a Fire Gem. Oh, and by the way, they would also have to overcome me, and about 8 other people. I rarely say this, but this time you should calm down just a tad eh?
Lisa (Indigo): the gold button doesn't slide it around?
TMO (Craigh): if you have a mouse wheel, pressing it lets you move the map around
BOB You should be able to zoom in and then move around
BOB Several burning areas to try to avoid
Lorie (Licornah): (Nope... I tried sliding, dragging... it doesn't make the maps more usable)
Michael (Talwin): Can also click your Scroll Wheel and drag the image around
Lorie (Licornah): :: shrugs :: So I just give up and hope I can see stuff
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I think you are trying to pretend like they don't mistrust me incredibly. For no reason, might I add.
BOB and weave your way to the center of the burning lava pit to try to find your map
BOB you did plan on how to get it out of that right?
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): You really care what they think? I have your back, is that enough?
Michael (Talwin): Pff, bob, I forget to plan to eat my breakfast before I face the workday.
Indigo: So we're looking for a tree that isn't on fire, Craigh?
Talwin: Looks at Craigh
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: I do not. But I think you should. If I am destroyed, no matter, I won't be around anymore to feel the loss.
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Well, neither will I so....win win?
Spring (Lanek): i also just have blackness and Indigo
Craigh: Salamander pool
Howard Plum: Yes Indigo he said it's in the pool
Craigh: 2,142 staggers fromi the pillar to a salamander pool.
Howard Plum: Not a place you want to swim
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: You will miss me when you realize how many dangers my warnings have been able to help you avoid
Indigo: Ohhh
Lorie (Licornah): (Spring you need a map titled FIRE POND)
Lorie (Licornah): (We're in the upper right corner of that)
Talwin -> Reven / Lipthink (giant sword): Reven, that would Mean I am dead too.
Image: Fire pond
Craigh: Be careful though. He fell in whatever he burnt his leg off with after leaving the pool, so it's between the pillar and pool.
Indigo: Too bad we don't have a stone net
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: Oh
Indigo: is there such thing as a stone net?
Reven / Lipthink (giant sword) -> Talwin: (lol, nvm bestie!!!)
Howard Plum: sighs
Spring (Lanek): thanks
Indigo: I remember that! Fire pits with yellow crusty stuff on them before they explode
Michael (Talwin): Can we raise the earth inside the pond until the gems are above the liquid?
Indigo: Been looking for those
Talwin: Can we raise the earth inside the pond until the gems are above the liquid?
Lisa (Indigo): this is the map part
Craigh: A mage hand or telekineses would probably work. What do you tihnk Haward?
Lisa (Indigo): we need a stone tablet to rise from the pool
Howard Plum: I don't know those spells
Talwin: Ah, the Stone Tablet
Talwin: Snaps Fingers
Talwin: We have to do that part first right?
Indigo: Yup
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): looking, looking,
Talwin: Thinks
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): This sounds like something Bixi SHOULD have
Talwin: Anything besides the Salemanders live in these pools?
Howard Plum: Maybe the priests have better spells
Michael (Talwin): Hard pass on that Lemon
Michael (Talwin): Er, meant the sword, just in case I confused myself
Indigo: Maybe Licornah can ask a salamander to bring us the tablet
Talwin: Nods
Talwin: I thoguht about that. But eventually, I highly doubt they would give us a FireGem.
BOB Both Talwin and Michael being driven MAD MAD by Lemon
Craigh: Licornah, Speaker to Salamanders?
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): lol, on being besties with the sword? You already are
TMO (Craigh): LOL
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): I have some stone softening thing? And a lot of wood shaping things. But I don't see anything that would raise a stone out of lava
Licornah: :: looks :: Ummm, I'm not sure they are open to chatting
Lisa (Indigo): the newts have the gems, not the salamanders
Licornah: I can try... but aren't they generally evil creatures?
Talwin: Talwin shakes head
Indigo: well yes
Talwin: Sorry Licornah
Talwin: I didn't think about that
Indigo: But weren't the ghost rats evil too?
Licornah: I am more thank willing to try
Licornah: Just want to be transparent that it might not work
Indigo: I don't even see any. Do you?
Talwin: Shrugs. If you are comfortable with it, I would be grateful. Do you want us to be ready in case it wants to take a ;chunck out of you?
Licornah: The rats? I don't know if they were evil... they were hungry
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): lol, ghosts. transparent.
Licornah: Maybe...
Lorie (Licornah): (:D)
Craigh: I think he hid it *near* the pool, not in lava. After all, he expected to be able to retrieve it himself.
Indigo: Too bad Thistle isn't here. She could just jump on it and get it
Craigh: So we should be able to get it.
Lorie (Licornah): (We need an ice mage... freeze the lava)
Talwin: Chuckles to himself
Indigo: Near the pool is good
Talwin: It might be that simple Craigh
Talwin: Should we just go near and look around first?
Talwin: Before examing the pool itself?
Talwin: I would laugh at our efforts if it turned out it was right on the ground next to the pool
Craigh: I think so, yes.
Talwin: Nods
Craigh: Pretty sure he did hide it though. He was being chased, he said.
Talwin: You and me for a quick looksie?
Talwin: Huh
Talwin: Srhugs
Talwin: Shall all of us go take a look?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Where did he say it was hidden? In a... tree trunk? Pillar? Are we still looking for the map?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I got confused. Three characters is too many for me
Indigo: Sure. I wouldn't get too close to the pool unless you see it. Don't want anything to grab you and pull you in
BOB You have the map that you know of
Talwin: Nods Gravely
BOB You know he hid the map in a pool, stone map, leads to where the fire gems are
BOB You know there are Salamanders guarding the pool
Lorie (Licornah): (stone in lava)
Michael (Talwin): Salamanders gaurding Lava
Michael (Talwin): Ok
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ah
Michael (Talwin): So all of us proceed, to kill the Salamnders
TMO (Craigh): it can't be lava, has to be water.
TMO (Craigh): maybe boiling water, but still water
Michael (Talwin): Salamnders gaurding Water
Michael (Talwin): So, Lorie TMO and I in front? I just want to make sure I don't get Licornah damaged by talking to an evil creature
Michael (Talwin): rather it bite me than her for just chatting iwth the damn thing
TMO (Craigh): actual lava would ruiin a stone tablet just like water would a paper one
Lorie (Licornah): (I would prefer to be in the middle... )
Michael (Talwin): TMO! I have a Talkin Sword in my Head. I DON"T Need Physics lessons right now!
Michael (Talwin): :)
BOB Craigh points out the one lone tree that is not burning
Howard Plum: The salamanders have lances too he said
Talwin: Then we'll take point with Licornia in the Center. If they don't seem like speaking, we go to plan B
Talwin: Reven LOVES plan B
TMO (Craigh): Michael - there is *always* time for physics lessons!
Talwin: So should be fun
BOB laughs
Michael (Talwin): LOL TMO
BOB so move to where you want to be
Michael (Talwin): I know TMO, my ICY driveway reminded me of a basic one yesterday
BOB descending down into the fire swamps
Michael (Talwin): Crazy right?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Hey, Reven is being nice and quiet right now!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Mostly because Lemon needs to pay attention or she won't know what's going on
Michael (Talwin): So. Talwi is already in Front, we'll just add Craigh and Licornah and whoever wants to slay some creaters
Michael (Talwin): LOL
TMO (Craigh): which tree on the map are we headed to?
Lorie (Licornah): (probably the sexy brown one)
Michael (Talwin): LOLOLOL
TMO (Craigh): got it, see the line now
Lorie (Licornah): (Those green ones are actually red herrings)
Lorie (Licornah): (When BOB said the only one not burning, I realized the gig was up)
Lorie (Licornah): (I count at least 15 trees not buring...)
Michael (Talwin): So...assuming the entire group wants to approach?
Michael (Talwin): Speak now or forever hold your peace?
Lisa (Indigo): yes we'll follow you in whatever order you want
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yep, agreed
Lorie (Licornah): (^^^)
Michael (Talwin): Nah, just trying to make sure everyone knew the game plan. I hate assuming people know what's up, because that would mean I was a complete ass when I am lost :)
Talwin: So bob, it looks like we are n a rough Spear pattern, Criagh and I are next to Licornah, iwth enough space for her to speak, but not enough to not get in front of her to deflect an attack
Michael (Talwin): Should we all Roll perceptiona nd obs as we approach?
BOB nods, and you have flames on your left side
Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 7]
BOB from the brush burning
Michael (Talwin): So avoiding the burning bush...
Michael (Talwin): Saying a quick prayer at my own joke
Lisa (Indigo): lol
Michael (Talwin): We approach in said pattern relatively close together
Michael (Talwin): While rolling Obs and Perception to avoid some sort of Meteor from killing us
BOB Talwin can see the burning starting in front of him
BOB and the burned out bushes beyond that
BOB it is getting warmer
Talwin: Talwin cautiously attempts to cirlce around the actively burning section to the more "ashy" section beyond
Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Alertness [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 16]
Michael (Talwin): Without scalding himself or his compaions
Talwin: Without scalding himself or his compaions
Talwin: Carefuly testing each step before moving on to the next
Talwin: ....
Talwin: Hold up a moment everyone. As we get to the more
Talwin: "Ashy" area, just want to take another qhick look
Michael (Talwin): (I just rolled, so won't roll, but for dramatic effect)
Indigo: nods
Talwin: Continues Cautiously
BOB You have brambles in front of you Talwin
Spring (Lanek): sigh, sorry i have to go
Craigh: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 20]
Michael (Talwin): Oop, sorry bob
Michael (Talwin): My bad
Lorie (Licornah): (Night Spring - Happy New Year!!!)
BOB Moving into them
Spring (Lanek): happy new year! i will see you next year
Lisa (Indigo): sorry Spring. Have a good night and a Happy New Year!
'Spring' disconnected
Michael (Talwin): Happy New year Spring!!!
BOB YES to Spring
Craigh: is too busy counting to pay proper attention
Michael (Talwin): We LOVE YOU!
TMO (Craigh): Happy New Year Spring!
BOB Craigh knows that he is close, within 25 to 50 yards of the pool he said
Michael (Talwin): So bob, these tings are not burned to dusty ash right? Just charred Brambles? I'm sorry, I must have asked the wrong question. I don't see a way aroudn this, just want to clarify for my own plans
Lorie (Licornah): (pointy sword, swipey at brambles, keep moving)
Michael (Talwin): LOL
Michael (Talwin): Good Idea
Lorie (Licornah): (make the ranger, ranger... LOL )
Michael (Talwin): Snort
BOB Correct, not ash, burned by something but not all clear ash
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Lol, she tried to ranger last time and got blasted by a baby dragon
Talwin: Proceeds, gently , keeping it slow enough that comrades can ...comfortably...be keeping pace
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Not today, Satan!
Talwin: Proceeds, gently , keeping it slow enough that comrades can ...comfortably...be keeping pace
Michael (Talwin): LOL. WOW
Michael (Talwin): Hey, Rangers are Aweomse!
Lorie (Licornah): (Poor Daphene is learning to ranger... this is probably not the best training course)
Michael (Talwin): So, I will keep inching my Icon up, and assume the others are "on my heel" bob? Is that Okay?
Craigh: Trial By Fire - literally!
TMO (Craigh): that was OOC
TMO (Craigh): the Alt didn't take
Talwin: Croaks a laugh in the dry air
Michael (Talwin): Oh shoot. Sorry TMO
Michael (Talwin): Didn't see the OOC in time
TMO (Craigh): np
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It works both ways lol
Michael (Talwin): Just want it clear that I am near Licornah for a chat first if it's possible. Otherwse, keeping moving forward simply for time sake. I can adjust if anyone needs or roll something just let mek now when :()
Lisa (Indigo): my guys have nothing useful to roll so they are just following
Licornah: :: pokes her spear at the ground... in case of traps, snares, lava, hidden evil creatures... surprise treasure, etc. ::
TMO (Craigh): keep it going, doing fine! Craigh is concentrating on orienteering
Lisa (Indigo): surprise treasure would be nice
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Does surprise treasure ever happen?
Michael (Talwin): So, Talwin is going right up to the space between the Trees. He will look for the safest next path through the clearly burning ash, towards the pool directly
Lorie (Licornah): (Not in BOB's world :: laughs ::)
TMO (Craigh): we got a chair!
Michael (Talwin): Not in my experience Lemon :)
TMO (Craigh): and door hinges
Michael (Talwin): So bob, this is going to just be a showcase, you don't have to approve or anything. Moving Character now
BOB Both were definately surprises
BOB You can roll to spot the salamanders
BOB before moving
Michael (Talwin): Gotcha
Talwin: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 9]
Lisa (Indigo): very good
BOB Talwin can see one Salamander right in front of where he was planning on going
Lorie (Licornah): (Okay, gang... I can try and parlay with the dragon here, but there could be an element of surprise if you'd prefer slash and burn)
Michael (Talwin): Stops. Flinging out a hand gently
Talwin: Stops. Flinging out a hand gently
Talwin: There
Talwin: Slowly Points
Talwin: Licornah? If you would like to chat I'm fine, it might even turn out well! But, if you prefer, we can take the hits for you and just go in quick as we can
Talwin: Up to you
Craigh: walks blindly into Talwin's elbow
Talwin: Sorry Craigh
Talwin: murmers
Licornah: :: Nods :: Okay... I'll give it a shot
Talwin: Slowly points
Talwin: Let's wait for th eothers
Talwin: We'll need backup if this goes bad
Licornah : [Translation] Hail there... might we have a word?
<font color="#000000">Hail there... might we have a word?
[understood by: Licornah, Daphene]
Talwin: Everyone, make your roles and prayers to whatever gods your may worship
Michael (Talwin): OOC
Michael (Talwin): sorry
Michael (Talwin): Hell, anyone have "Bless" While we are at it?
Elemental, Fire Kin, Salamander 1 [Orc]: [Translation] You are wet you should die

Michael (Talwin): or was it Chant
Michael (Talwin): sorry I always forget
TMO (Craigh): both
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, I do!
Michael (Talwin): Hey, thanks!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Can I do that now?
Licornah : [Translation] :: smiles :: I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand. We're just looking to pass?
<font color="#000000">:: smiles :: I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand. We're just looking to pass?

Michael (Talwin): Er I would?

<font color="#000000">The fires will cleanse you

<font color="#000000">:: turns to the group :: I'm sorry, I don't think we are communicating well

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I want to cast it by Talwin
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Unless this talk is going really well
Michael (Talwin): Cast on Licornah
Licornah: Sorry all, I don't think we are communicating well
Licornah: :: lowers spear and shows her holy symbol ::
Talwin: Time to Party Licornah? Or run as fast as we can?

Michael (Talwin): (You will def want to cast on Talwin then. I think his resistance to breath is less then Licornah)
Licornah: :: turns to Talwin :: I'm not sure... they are speaking, but we aren't ...
Elemental, Fire Kin, Salamander 1: [DAMAGE (M)] Tail Lash [TYPE: fire,magic +2 (1d6=2)] [d6 = 2]

Michael (Talwin): Wait!
Michael (Talwin): STOP
Talwin: Sorry
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): NO!
Bixi Fizzlebang: I wanted to cast the thing first!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc
BOB The Salamander decided to rush forward and stab at Talwin with its spear
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It's a 50ft cube, I dont' know how to do that
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): No, I was trying to cast while they were still talking
Michael (Talwin): Bob, we were honeslty in good faith trying to plan for this. If you say we can't fine, but we were trying to cast bless chant before this conversation.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): This is not ok
BOB Just a moment
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I was just going to do bless, didn't realize I had chant
BOB Bixi can cast on Licornah no problem, just drag that spell over to her token
BOB that will give her that protection
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I can put it up to 60 yards away and it's a 50 ft cube
Michael (Talwin): That was all I had for that, so I'm good with goig back to Combat now....
BOB Chant you can do instead, but it means that Bixi has to stay there and so does Licornah, within the raidus
BOB Bless is cast on a person and they can move
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): My description does not say that
BOB That is a 50 foot cube around Licornah
Lisa (Indigo): chant does lock you in place and you can't do anything but chant
Lorie (Licornah): (Chant is what it sounds like... you have to blather on as a priest... and your target has to stay to listen to it; Bless is a one and done sort of things for on the go)
TMO (Craigh): she should probably be a bit closer to the front, but not al the way
Michael (Talwin): I just wanted to make sure Licornah had that protection before Talwin and Craigh get it on
Michael (Talwin): :)
Lorie (Licornah): (Chant works well when you are in a close quarter or don't have to move)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I'm not going to try for chant, because I definitely wasn't going to realize I had that before combat started
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): But I *was* legitimately figuring out where to put bless
Bless
BOB Nods to Lemon, so drag Bless onto Licornah and she will have that effect
BOB You can also drag that effect onto Bixi and on Daphene
BOB that will be the three in that cube when you cast
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It says I determine at what range to cast it... so Licornah is the closest person I can reach, or?
BOB You can go out to your Range, but then a 50 foot cube centered on that spot
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah. Who is the closest to Talwin that I can reach?
BOB What is your range?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): up to 60 yards
Michael (Talwin): You want to encompass the most amount of people about to be Fried. Remember, we were all trying to stay together
Michael (Talwin): You got this :)
BOB So Talwin is about 70 feet 24 yards away
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Can I reach Howard or Indigo?
Michael (Talwin): If he's out of range, do with maximum affect :)
BOB Yes
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): If I can reach Howard, that's right in the middle, that should hit the most?
BOB Range of 60 yards, Talwin is 24 yards out front of you
BOB You can try that
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): 50 ft cube from Howard will still reach Talwin?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ok, perfect. Yes, that
BOB That gives you a Bless on each of them but not your two
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, that's fine, my two are idiots
BOB So drag the Bless Effect over to each of their tokens
BOB LOL
Lisa (Indigo): lol

BOB And who in your group can go into the pond to get it?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I nominate Yout
Michael (Talwin): I'm not even thinking about that until we have dealt with the Salemander IN the poind
Michael (Talwin): If we can get it to come to us, we don't even have to screw with the Pond yet
TMO (Craigh): I think Bob is implying we need the salamander in the pool to get the tablet for us.
Lisa (Indigo): we have a pain suppression potion - fire pond diving will kill you but you won't feel it at least
Michael (Talwin): Oh my god. I'm confused but that does make sense
Michael (Talwin): I'm sorry Bob, wasn't sure that was where you were going with that
Michael (Talwin): Was thinking I was just attacked by two Salamanders and had no desire to be melted while dealing with antoher :)
Michael (Talwin): So...should Lorie?
Michael (Talwin): Would you like to have a conversation round two?
Michael (Talwin): Or I can try?
Michael (Talwin): Or any other ideas?
BOB The old Talwin thinks through and finds who is best, the Talwin with the bonded evil sword KILLS everything and then solves questions afterwards,
BOB How do you think you should solve this one?
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): I'm not evil!
Michael (Talwin): Kind of with Lemon on this one
Michael (Talwin): lol
TMO (Craigh): toss the sword in to get it for us
Michael (Talwin): LOL
TMO (Craigh): I can tie my lasso onto the hilt to pull it back out after
Lorie (Licornah): (anyone have a summon tablet spell?)
Michael (Talwin): Honestly, I was just attacked. I'm prerty sure the Old Talwin would be pretty pissed at this point too
Lemon (Reven / Lipthink (giant sword)): Won't you catch the lasso on fire?
Michael (Talwin): Is that Bob hinting the sword is Actually evil? Cause if yes, man that sucks....
Lorie (Licornah): (Do we have a magical lasso?)
Michael (Talwin): So...are algibnment changes a thing that can happen?
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I have command, but it says the animals only obey simple commands... not sure I could talk it into bringing us something, but I guess I could try.
Michael (Talwin): Fetch
Michael (Talwin): and point to the tablet?
Michael (Talwin): But if I remember that spell correctly, it only lasts one round, but "Fetch" is a relatively sinple command
TMO (Craigh): actually, yes, Lorie. But it's never been Identified (HOWARD), so Craigh doesn't know the commands to use it.
Michael (Talwin): Talking to it first couldn't hurt thoguh
Talwin: Licornah
Talwin: Murmers
Talwin: I'm having a bloodlust moment
Lorie (Licornah): (We have access to Endure Heat)
BOB The group viciously slashing through two fire salmanders, leaving them dead on the edge of the pond... Holds up finger, Wait a moment to the other one, we need to talk about what we want to do
Lorie (Licornah): (I think we cast that on someone to go get the tablet)
TMO (Craigh): they did attack us first remember
Michael (Talwin): Bob I am trying here
Michael (Talwin): Doing the best I can
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): We could tell it to bring the tablet to us, and we will let it live
TMO (Craigh): and we did try talking first
Lisa (Indigo): we did that out of sight at the lounging 3rd salamander
BOB grins with Michael
TMO (Craigh): it's their own dang fault! :P I'm sure they'll buy that
BOB This is true to TMO and Lisa
Lorie (Licornah): (We are in their territory and we're foreigners)
BOB Licornah tried to talk, then hid you from the one in the pool as you killed the other two
Michael (Talwin): Well yeah, but we just wanted their stuff
Lisa (Indigo): if endure heat will work we can dive for it ourselves
Michael (Talwin): ;)
Michael (Talwin): Yes, but we will still have a salamander in the pond
Michael (Talwin): With no ability to provide backup
Endure Cold/Endure Heat
Lisa: Endure Cold/Endure Heat
Lisa (Indigo): eek can't open those spell links
Lisa: Endure Cold/Endure Heat
Michael (Talwin): I can't either. Googling them :(
BOB It opened for me
Lorie (Licornah): (posted in Discord)
Michael (Talwin): Uh, pretty sure taht pool is more then 130 degrees fareinhigt....
BOB This is your second puzzle for Talwin to solve
BOB With the help he can assemble
Michael (Talwin): Oh shit. With the amount of Dayquil I've ingested today. A christmas miracle is more likely
TMO (Craigh): have Craigh use his leatherworking skill to make you a Salamander skin coat and gloves so you can reach in. ;)
BOB So only 355 more days is what i hear you saying
Michael (Talwin): Exactly
Licornah: (Oh, whoops, I also have Resist Fire / Cold) so we could layer)
Michael (Talwin): Could you post that one? I can look up real quick
BOB and who has swimming?
Michael (Talwin): Talwin
Lorie (Licornah): (In Discord again)
BOB Really? wow I am amazed
Lorie (Licornah): (I cannot swim... I'm not a watery priest)
Michael (Talwin): How deep is the pool?
Lorie (Licornah): (We probably can't tell)
BOB How would you know ?
Michael (Talwin): Damn good guess?
Michael (Talwin): Someone throw a rock?
BOB Gee Talwin can swim, has priests who can cast resist on him, has others who have magical weapons and can protect him..... Hmmmm
BOB Almost like this is a Talwin adventure
Michael (Talwin): Rolls eyes so hard my head popped
Michael (Talwin): I KNOW THAT BOB
Michael (Talwin): LOL
TMO (Craigh): can we bum-rush Talwin into the pool? ;)
Michael (Talwin): I'm trying to ask people if we want me to just hop in with ap issed of lizard, or kill or talk to the damn thing first!
BOB Gently pushes Michael
Talwin: Sighs
Michael (Talwin): Look
Talwin: Talking to the damn thing first will make literally no difference
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Pretty sure you can take it, as long as Reven doesn't melt
Talwin: Licornah, would you mind having a chat with this Salemander before I ask you all to help me deal wit this acid bath I'll be ;sharing with it?
Talwin: If you don't know worries of course
Licornah: I can try :: turns and looks at the Salamander
Licornah : [Translation] We're just trying to get an item and be on our way, can we please try and do this without further injury?
<font color="#000000">We're just trying to get an item and be on our way, can we please try and do this without further injury?

Licornah: :: turns to Talwin :: Sorry, it doesn't seem to understand me - no language I understand. Does anyone else want to try?
Talwin: Wait really?
Talwin: Surprised
Indigo: That's weird. You need magic weapons. Animal talk doesn't work...
Talwin: No worries
Indigo: Maybe because it's an evil fire monster?
Licornah: I don't think these are technically animals... I think they are sentient
Talwin: Ah
Talwin: My bad then Licornah
Licornah: They are as big as we are and not in a bear way
Indigo: Or that
BOB Quote from Lorie
Talwin: Can we cast any magic that would make it want to leave the safety of this nice acid bath?
Licornah: If they were the cute ones like in Silvermoon, we could have a chat... but these are something else
Licornah: Welllll... we could call lightning but that might char a few of us plus it
Michael (Talwin): Would it damage the tablet?
Talwin: Would it damage the tablet?
Talwin: Asks interested
Lisa (Indigo): the salamanders and newts are different beings though right?
Talwin: Asks interested
Licornah: I'm not a mage... I think they might be more useful than me here.
BOB Yes to Lisa
Talwin: Howard! What do you think? Any ideas that migh make it want to leave it
Lorie (Licornah): (they are cousins... second cousins probably :) )
Talwin: s fortreess?
Lisa (Indigo): lol
User has gone AFK. (Lemon)
Licornah: What if we just advance to where we want to go and guard our back to move things along?
Talwin: Shrugs
Howard Plum: I could make it itchy or cover it in blinding glitter but I'm not sure that will make it go away
Talwin: I've honestly got nothing better. Why don't we look to see if we can circle the pond and see if we can see the tablet first?
Talwin: At the very least, it might narrow the search
Craigh: Sure thing.
Talwin: Could we cast a few protections on me? I don't want it to drag anyone else in. I don't intend on approaching it purposefully, but I'll be looking for the tablet.
Craigh: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] [EFFECTS +1] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 12] [d20-1 = 3]
Lorie (Licornah): (Well, I think we need to heal you before we send you into a pit of lava)
Craigh: is it lava, or boiling water?
Michael (Talwin): Order of Ops: Talwin accepts protectionm Talwin circles the pond looking to narrow the search, (and yes Lorie thank you :)) Then Talwin if he cannot find it at all, tries to enter the pond because honest to god I'm out of ideas and kind of want to go to bed :)
TMO (Craigh): I held the ALT KEY!!
Lorie (Licornah): (I've been saying lava all evening, because I wasn't sure. It's probably water since its a swamp, but since everything is burning, there might be some lava too :) )
Michael (Talwin): Didn't we clarify it is water
BOB Craigh can spot a stone piece out there in the middle of the boiling water,
Michael (Talwin): Great. Can we scope that?
BOB There on that rock in the middle
Lisa (Howard Plum): so it is actually boiling :(
Michael (Talwin): Lets Get Talwin healed, protected, and heading on in
BOB The one Salamander there in between you and it
Craigh: Anybody got any tea leaves?
BOB super heated water
Lisa (Howard Plum): oh wait - it's on the stone that is sticking out of the water?
BOB scalding hot
BOB Yes to Lisa
Lisa (Howard Plum): well then
BOB Now that Craigh points it out to the group
Michael (Talwin): Whelp, Bob, I have no idea what to do about that Salamander. So, I'm going to accept protection, and then let it drag me down to the depths, because I got nothing
Licornah: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 2]
Heal [2] -> [to Talwin] [STATUS: Light]
Lisa (Howard Plum): just dimension door to the rock grab it and dimension door back
Licornah: [HEAL] Cure Serious Wounds [2d8+1 = 8]
Heal [8] -> [to Daphene] [NOT WOUNDED]
Lisa (Howard Plum): can a human land on the rock?
Lorie (Licornah): (that was supposed to go to Talwin... )
Michael (Talwin): Sounds like a plan. I am ready when you are
BOB I can change that Lorie
Daphene's health adjusted by -8
Talwin's health adjusted by +8
BOB and maybe to Lisa
Lorie (Licornah): (Daphene looks like she still has -8)
BOB I took the 8 away from Daphene and gave it to Talwin
BOB Talwin got 2 then 8
Licornah: (she wasn't down 8 points though... )
Licornah: (she was at full health... now it looks like she took 8 points damage)
Lisa (Howard Plum): I'm measuring 12 ft from one end of the rock to the other
BOB She was wounded before you healed her
Licornah: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 5]
Heal [5] -> [to Talwin]
Licornah: [HEAL] Cure Light Wounds [d8 = 6]
Heal [6] -> [to Daphene] [STATUS: Light]
BOB Yes to Lisa
Lorie (Licornah): (Can I split an Orison between them so they are full before I cast the Resist?)
BOB Yes to Lorie
Lisa (Howard Plum): wait - we might not need to cast that
Licornah: Licornah cast a spell NOT memorized.
Licornah: [CAST] Resist Fire/Resist Cold [at Talwin]
Daphene's health adjusted by +2
Lisa (Howard Plum): if the tablet is on the rock and not in the water then no one needs to get burned
Talwin's health adjusted by +2
Lorie (Licornah): Okay...I'll hold that)
Indigo's health adjusted by +5
Michael (Talwin): If that spell is clear, I like Dimension Door from when I had Neith
User is back. (Lemon)
BOB Used up the Orison on Daphene, then Talwin, then the remaining to Indigo
Lorie (Licornah): (Yes, thank you...)
Lisa (Howard Plum): thanks!
Lisa (Howard Plum): still probably need to figure out what to do with the salamander - is he going to just sit there while we do this?
BOB He is in between you and the pond right now
Lorie (Licornah): (Maybe you could tie him up... or someone else could chat him up?)
Michael (Talwin): Honestly, if this goes as I'm hoping. I was still going to accept protection for just in case, have you cast Dimension Door, and without delay walk through pick it up and bug out
Michael (Talwin): How quick is Dimension Door versus the Salamander making it to me picking it up
Howard Plum: you can't cast dimension door on someone
Lisa (Howard Plum): Howard would have to do it
Michael (Talwin): No, on the rock. Talwin will get protection, the spell cast, and will hurry to get the tablet
BOB brb as you plot this out
Lisa (Howard Plum): dimension door is like a teleport - he can't cast it on someone else
Michael (Talwin): Knowing bob, Talwin will slip on the rock, or the Salamander will teleport to Talwin
Michael (Talwin): No I know that or maybe I'm not understanding?
Lisa (Howard Plum): so no one will land on the rock except howard
Lisa (Howard Plum): we on the same page?
Michael (Talwin): OH!, Talwin can't walk through it?
Michael (Talwin): My bad
Michael (Talwin): I"m sorry
Lisa (Howard Plum): no it's a teleport except it has a short range
Michael (Talwin): Ah, I thought others could use it. Shoot. Well, I would definteily want to keep it distracted if Howard is doing that. I don't want Howard to Die because I wasn't jumping into to deal with the Salamander
Michael (Talwin): Frankly, I'm about ready to just say cast protection, and I'm going for a swim. I honestly got nothi8ng at this point because Id on't know spells
Lisa (Howard Plum): what I'm worried about is having to possibly make a DEX check and wishing he had gloves anyway or thinking of some way to protect his hands as he grabs the tablet but maybe he can use his shirt
Michael (Talwin): Not mad at anyone, just don't know what to do
Michael (Talwin): Talwin has gloves in his pack
Michael (Talwin): But I would still want protection from heat and fire
Michael (Talwin): at the very least
Lisa (Howard Plum): we can kill the salamander and then get the tablet
Michael (Talwin): I fully agree with that too
Michael (Talwin): I just have no idea how to accomplish that
Lisa (Howard Plum): it's midnight - maybe we ponder and get this next session?
Michael (Talwin): I mean, maybe? I'm really wracking my brain, but I'm not sure how to get the little fudger out of his acid bath
BOB back
Lisa (Howard Plum): killing the salamander seems relatively simple - like the others?
BOB Not playing next week,
Michael (Talwin): Yeah, if we could get it out
BOB Will play in two weeks
Lisa (Howard Plum): yes I said session
Michael (Talwin): If it's only waist high water, I'd be free to hop in
BOB up to the group, the next session does involve this map
Michael (Talwin): Look, how tall is the Salamanders bob?
Lisa (Howard Plum): looks like it's sitting off to the side to me
BOB So up to you end with getting the map or start with getting the map
Lorie (Licornah): (We could cast tree steed, you ride it in grab the tablet and get out?)
BOB Salamanders are man sized
Michael (Talwin): Is it standing, sitting, or lounging?
BOB Guarding
Michael (Talwin): Is it's waist above the waterline
BOB Out of the water, on the shore
Michael (Talwin): Where is the water on it's body up to
Talwin: What the fuck!
Tree Steed
Michael (Talwin): For fucks sake bob? It's out of the water!?
BOB All three of them have been
Michael (Talwin): I may need to log out before I have a goddamn anurism
BOB Yes to Lisa's image capture
Lisa: just posted a pic of what I see
Michael (Talwin): JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
Michael (Talwin): Attack the fucker and then let's figure out the damn tablet. Holy shit I'm so angry right now I'm seeing red
Michael (Talwin): I've said over and over we need a way to get this fucker out of this acid bath and no one said "Hey Michael, I think you might be having a stroke?"
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I was looking at the wrong pond THE WHOLE TIME
Michael (Talwin): I have never been so embarrased
Michael (Talwin): holdy shit
Lisa: no worries!
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I thought it was underwater too because I didn't see it on the map
Lisa: I thought you meant the tablet
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Because I was looking at an entirely different pond
Michael (Talwin): Where is this fucker I'm just waltzing up to him. Jesus
TMO (Craigh): I was too, for what it's worth
TMO (Craigh): I had no salamander on my screen
Lorie (Licornah): (He's at 4 o'clock from the tablet Michael)
Lisa: it's camo salamander
TMO (Craigh): past the blue water, on the black shores next to the red puddle
Lorie (Licornah): (He sort of blends in... unassuming like to kills us)
Bixi Fizzlebang: Yeah way to the west of where we are standing
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc
BOB grins with Lorie
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Across this pond and next to the lava pit
Michael (Talwin): Oh.My.Fucking.God.
Michael (Talwin): I'm sorry for language, but I'm literally chugging asprine at the moment
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I just found it after Lisa posted the picture
Michael (Talwin): Navigate around this buringin stuff please
Talwin: Hey Asshole, I need something. CAN YOU GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY?
Lorie (Licornah): (In priestly... "glad I healed him..." )

Lisa: very nice
Michael (Talwin): Okay. Le'ts protect Howard and Dimension Door. This. Holy Shit I am so embarassed and red faced
Michael (Talwin): Or protect me and I'll swim
Lisa: don't worry about it
Lisa: please
Michael (Talwin): Without worrying about a non existent salamander dragging me to the bottom of an acid pool, i"m not that worried
Michael (Talwin): Groans
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Yeah, don't be. At least two of us were in the same boat as you.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Ship.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Whatever.
BOB LOL
Talwin: Yeah.
Lisa: lol
TMO (Craigh): floaty thing
'Carissa' connected
Michael (Talwin): Right. Can we just pretend Talwin got a successful cast for protect heat and fire and quickly ancied in his pantsied a fancy swim to pick up the damn thing?
Lisa: want to do this now or next time?
Michael (Talwin): Actually, you are right. I think I'm a bit in a funk lol
Michael (Talwin): net time might be me more calm
Michael (Talwin): :)
Michael (Talwin): lol
BOB You have Carissa now too
BOB so you have Rae and Licornah and Bixi as priests to help
Lisa (Howard Plum): it's just a matter of a couple spells and maybe a roll or two
BOB and Howard and Craigh as wizards
TMO (Craigh): Bob being generous again. :)
BOB to plot out getting over to that rock and get the map and get back
Talwin: Right. I'm being absolutely serious. I'm not worried about the Swijmto the Tablet. The literally only thing that was holding me up was the need to deal with
Michael (Talwin): a salamander in the pool
Michael (Talwin): lol
Carissa: (hi again)
Michael (Talwin): Hey Carissa! :)
Lisa (Howard Plum): coming from a mage perspective, Howard would just jump over and jump back
Michael (Talwin): Do me a favor and don't read chat summary tonight okay? I may have ahem, lost my absolute shit for a s few minutes
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): You missed an exciting week, Carissa.
Lisa (Howard Plum): Hi Carissa :)
Michael (Talwin): Then that is abosutley perfect lisa haha. Howard can do that
Michael (Talwin): I have gloves
Carissa: found the map - is Talwin all by his lonesome?
Michael (Talwin): Don't look at the map. In fact, pretend this map is lost to history.
Carissa: (wow that lagged long)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Well, you see
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): After we figured out that we were all standing at the wrong pond, Talwin just rushed in to murder the last guy who apparently was just lounging on the shore.
Carissa: LOL if you don't want me to read chat then TMO definitely has to do summary again
Michael (Talwin): Bob, can we pretend you glictched and this episode Twilight Zoned itself?
Howard Plum: studies the rock and the tablet looking for the safest, i.e. flattets place to land on the rock
BOB HAH
TMO (Craigh): I don't think we said anything objectional this week
Lisa (Howard Plum): flattest
Howard Plum: Talwin, I think your gloves will be helpful if you would lend them
Carissa: right but I don't get home until Tuesday but feel free to ask Lemon to doit for you as I ask tyou to do it for me
Michael (Talwin): Hands gloves to Howard. "It might be hot. Can we cast protection from heat on you at the very least? Preferrably Fire too?"
Talwin: Hands gloves to Howard. "It might be hot. Can we cast protection from heat on you at the very least? Preferrably Fire too?"
TMO (Craigh): lol, I'll see if I can get it done
Howard Plum: Thank you.
Carissa: thanks!!
Talwin: And for the record, I really appreciate this Howard
Howard Plum: puts them on
BOB I want to experient with ChatGBT to see what is does for a summary
Howard Plum: You are welcome. I hope it all goes smoothly
Carissa: (anyone doing the heat protection spell this session?
Michael (Talwin): Yes
Michael (Talwin): On Howard
Michael (Talwin): Before he dimension doors to the Tablet
Michael (Talwin): It's right there, poking above the boiling water
Carissa (Raelynn): ok making sure - think Rae has it if not
Lorie (Licornah): (I was holding Resist Fire, but can cast as necessary)
Michael (Talwin): I just don't want Howard to slip and lose a limb or more
Lisa (Howard Plum): he's going to try to not get his feet wet but it's still likely pretty hot there
Carissa (Raelynn): neither would rae
Michael (Talwin): Alright sounds like we got a plan?
Carissa (Raelynn): endure heat was being used or resist fire?
Carissa (Raelynn): no way I can compare spells on my laptop
Michael (Talwin): I think Endure Heat would be the bare minimum
Lorie (Licornah): (Resist is stronger than Endure - Endure is only up to 130; Resist is much higher)
Raelynn: will do
Raelynn: [CAST] Endure Cold/Endure Heat [at Howard Plum]
Effect ['Endure Heat'] -> [to Howard Plum]
Effect ['Endure Cold'] -> [to Howard Plum]
Howard Plum: Thank you Miss Raelynn
Raelynn: Be careful, Howard!
Lisa (Howard Plum): test
Carissa (Raelynn): this is lagging for me
BOB Yes to lag, there are icons moving across the screen and the chat is slow
Lisa (Howard Plum): there we go
Carissa (Raelynn): this is lagging for me
Michael (Talwin): I see you
Carissa (Raelynn): maybe better now?
Howard Plum: concentrates on the top flat part of the rock to land on and then casts
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It lagged when I did bless, too
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Something with the effects, maybe
Howard Plum: [CAST] Dimension Door [at Howard Plum]
BOB perhaps Lemon
Carissa (Raelynn): think so, it was right as I dragged the cold effect over
BOB Dex for Howard
Howard Plum: [CHECK] Dexterity [EFFECTS +1] (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20-1 = 7]
Lisa (Howard Plum): thank god
Carissa (Raelynn): all that dancing is helping his dex!
BOB grabs the map
Michael (Talwin): lol
BOB and Laughs with Carissa
Howard Plum: and concentrates on getting back to the spot he left
BOB HGow is he getting back?
Howard Plum: Howard Plum cast a spell NOT memorized.
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Well, looks like Howard is camping in the lava lake tonight
Lisa (Howard Plum): didn't remove the check mark from the sheet but he had 2 today
Carissa (Raelynn): at least he'll be toasty
Michael (Talwin): He's riding Wooden Steed out if not
Lisa (Howard Plum): it's annoying you have to do that all the time
BOB and very good Howard makes it back to the safe edge of the pool
Carissa (Raelynn): i bet
Michael (Talwin): Where Talwin hugs the everloving Shit out of him
Lisa (Howard Plum): sorry - under memorized it looks like he has two
Talwin: Where Talwin hugs the everloving Shit out of him
Talwin: I need a drink HOward. THank you
Raelynn: You've gotten so light on your toes, Howard! See? Dancing has been great for you!
Talwin: I'm having a moment
Talwin: Sorry
Howard Plum: Here you go
BOB And we wrap up there, next session in two weeks you are in the morning and have you rmap
Howard Plum: hands shaking a little
Talwin: Thank you
Licornah: Wait, I want to heal Indigo before we log
Howard Plum: smiles at Raelynn
Licornah: since it will be two weeks and we won't remember :)
Talwin: I think you need a rest eh?
Lisa (Howard Plum): Indigo is okay if you want to save spells
Lisa (Howard Plum): he's only down by 7
BOB Just remember this is the beginning of the day and you are heading off to follow this map
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Lisa will remember, lol. Her memory is like... something... very good
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): It's late y'all
Lorie (Licornah): (Okay, fair enough... just hate seeing damage :) )
Michael (Talwin): Also Michael is still attempting to not weep LOL
Lisa: I know - I appreciate it
Carissa (Raelynn): Like an elephant?
BOB ryoneNight eve
Bixi Fizzlebang: sure let's go with elephant
Lisa: Happy New Year to everyone!
Michael (Talwin): Like an absolute Todler
Lorie (Licornah): (we're only at step one Michael... we still need three FIRE GEMS = baby dragon eggs)
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): ooc
Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I was trying to think o fsomething funnier
Carissa: ...an elephant wearing a hat?
Michael (Talwin): Thanks for reminding me Lorie ;)
Lorie: Happy New Years everyone - hope those of you under the weather feel better
Craigh: happy New year!!
