Lorie: It's been a week...I think I'm approaching work burnout LOL

Lorie: Hope that passes quickly BOB

Spring: ugh hope for a restful weekend for you both

BOB Sorry for that Lorie

Lorie: I went from twiddling my thumbs to not knowing what time it is overnight :: shrug :: feast or famine

BOB Chuckles

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Oh, right. Uh.... I'm Nayr

Spring: ah okay, hi Nayr

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Like the fingernail stuff, but spelled differently... and backwards

Spring: hahahah

Spring: well then. i'm glad you didn't eat your children after all

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Not all of them, no

Spring: someone channeled you in a meeting recently and it was funny/scary

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): That sounds terrifying

Spring: wish i could remember what they said and whether it was about children, spouses, or pets

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): All of those sound like me, and sound awful to hear about

Spring: only awful if there's not enough cayenne

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Sounds intriguing. Do you have a recipe?

Spring: nopes. alas

BOB We will be missing TMO and Michael tonight

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I weep at the injustice of the situation. Maybe I can wing it. Let me see if I have a stockpot big enough

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Oh, that was unfortunately timed

BOB and Sharif is normally not in until 9 so two more hours

'Carissa' connected

Spring: hahaha

BOB There is light planning to do, and more dream intrepetations

BOB Hello Carissa

Spring: hi Carissa

Lorie: Hey Carissa

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Heyo

Spring: i think of you often, but especially this week because my niece is studying to be a wildlife biologist

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): We were just talking about cooking with family. You are right on time

Spring: i found this out at the funeral and didn't have an opportunity to say hey! i know somebody!

Carissa: thought it'd take longer to load, hi all

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Hey!

Carissa: am I ready to give up my life again? it was nice finding it for the past two weeks. I think.

Spring: :-)

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Oh, before I forget, I have a surgery on Thursday, so I won't be in next week. Or possibly for a bit, depending on how it goes

Lorie: Good luck with surgery

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Thanks. I studied hard and am hoping to pass with at least a C

Carissa: You can do it. I believe in you!

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Sorry, I'm Asian so when people say good luck, my kneejerk is to relate it to school

Carissa: I expect at least a C+

Spring: i hope it is entirely routine and boring and easy to recover from

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): So, like my marriage?

BOB LOL

Spring: ha!

Carissa: lol

Spring: how is your current job "Nyar"? are they getting used to you?

Spring: whoops, Nayr. i'm not on my game

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Nyar makes me think of a cat. I kinda prefer it

Carissa: lol

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Eh, typical 4 months in. Honeymoon period is over and I cry myself to sleep every night

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Things are good. Learning the ropes and people are usually pretty patient. Plus I'm learning a lot.

Spring: that's good.

Spring: i'm on shift right now, so that tells you something about how busy i am\

BOB I do have a visitor for the tea shop Carissa

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Truly, your ability to multitask is to be admired :)

Carissa (Raelynn): k

Carissa (Raelynn): it tells us you have the correct priorities!

BOB Also it would be helpful for everyone to have something to help out Sharif when he logs in for his opening night

Carissa (Raelynn): like a playlist? 'cause I can share mine

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I have some... alternative medicine that I can share, but not sure when it will arrive

BOB and with no Michael or TMO I will hold off the other planned encounter from the mines

Carissa (Raelynn): hmm.....

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Ulrik gets to live another session!

Carissa (Raelynn): not even a small one so Ulrik can show off his might?

Carissa (Raelynn): a handful of goblins? more withering judgement from N'laea?

BOB They are all small gentler encounters, not totally bloodless, but not horrible dragon lairs

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Maybe a thimble of that tea from last time?

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Spring: heh

Carissa (Raelynn): she'll hand you a gallon but withhold the milk this time

Carissa (Raelynn): also bloodless could be vampires....

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Truly, N'laea is the endboss of this campaign

BOB HAH

Carissa (Raelynn): LOL

BOB Quiet easy peaceful nights

Carissa (Raelynn): don't go to the hotel 'cause you can never leave

Spring: LOL

BOB peaceful easy feeling

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): But you can check out anytime you want

BOB Hello Lemon

Lorie: Evening Lemon

Spring: hi Lemon!

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Heylo

Carissa (Raelynn): Hi Lemon!

Lemon: Hello everyone!

Ulrik Ekenberg: You missed the planning session. We are down TMO and

Carissa (Raelynn): Bob said to have something ready to help out Sharif when he logs in for his performance. He didn't specify what. I got a playlist. Ryan is sending traditional medicine. You can choose how you want to help.

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Michael, but have decided to fight the dracolich anyways

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): It just summoned the 9 driders, but we are feeling pretty good still

Lemon: Oh no, I missed the planning? my favorite part. i am truly devastated. never been more sad in my entire life.

Raelynn: Bixi is our tank.

Lorie: You don't fight a dracolich... you write epic poetry and send a bard to seranade

Ulrik Ekenberg: Ulrik is going up with a scroll of poetry and is about to roll to seduce the dracolich

Ulrik Ekenberg: [d20 = 1]

Spring: ha!

BOB WIW

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Uh... success?

Carissa (Raelynn): N'laea is watching him fail as expected.

Spring: the dracolich is now madly in love

BOB That was supposed to be What in the World

Carissa (Raelynn): Wait was it a roll to hit or a roll to seduce?

Spring: the in-laws insist on an immediate ceremony

BOB To seduce

Lemon: lolll

Carissa (Raelynn): Oh, well then. N'laea is confused. Rae CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS WEDDING OMGGGG

Lemon: What's the d&d equivalent of a shotgun wedding? Crossbow wedding?

Spring: fireball wedding

Carissa (Raelynn): We do have a crossbow of speed. We can wrap it all up here and now.

BOB Wand of Magic Missle wedding

Ulrik Ekenberg: Forget the rest of you. I've EARNED my happily ever after.

Carissa (Raelynn): Happily married, just got liched.

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): We'll have the bones of paladins dangle behind our carriage as we drive off.

Spring: hahaha

Carissa (Raelynn): I volunteer Sundown

Lemon: lollll

Carissa (Raelynn): did bob disappear?

BOB Not at all

BOB I am here just letting everyone converse

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I haven't seen him in a while. Actually, I can't remember the last time I saw him....

BOB chuckles

Lemon: BOB or your lich husband?

Carissa (Raelynn): It was the beforetimes, when the pandemic was just a thought....

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): #COVIDwasaninsidejob

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): dracolich, please. Let's not resort to overgeneralizing, please. He's proud of his draconic heritage.

Carissa (Raelynn): How's your family taking the sudden eloping?

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Wears green and goes to the local Draconic bar every St. Smaug's Day to celebrate with all the other Draco-Americans

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Uh... I'll tell you in a few months once they find out

Carissa (Raelynn): Oh crap, do I need to take down my social media post congratulationg you two??

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Too late :( My phone's already lighting up with texts

Carissa (Raelynn): Sorry :(

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Nah, they should know that I love the dead.... dragon that I married

Lemon: #loveislove

BOB Hoping that Sharif is in about hour,

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Not sure that BOB could take much longer than that of this

BOB Hah

BOB I can react to anything when you are ready

Carissa (Raelynn): Well, you see, the draco-lich is pregnant...

Lemon: Is anyone ever truly "ready"?

BOB Does anyone really know what time it is?

Carissa (Raelynn): Tool Time!

Spring: does anybody even care?

BOB so Hammer Time?

Spring: tulsa time

Carissa (Raelynn): According to my playlist, it's About Damn Time

Spring: in a minute, i'ma need a, elf or halfling, to spell me up

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Lemon: Ok so what are we ACTUALLY doing?

Carissa (Raelynn): Rae has a visitor? I think Bob is delaying some for Sharif.

Spring: smartassery and hatassery so far

Carissa (Raelynn): lol yes

BOB ready

Lemon: I mean I'm fine delaying, I'm just wondering

Child: Looks in the door of the tea Shop

Raelynn: Hello!

Child: Hello!

Raelynn: Are you here for some tea? You look too young for matchmaking...

Child: I heard you can make people happy

Raelynn: I do love making people happy!

Raelynn: Are you not happy?

Child: I am happy, well except when Willi steals my bread

Child: But my pa is not happy

Raelynn: Hmm, well this sounds important.

Raelynn: Come here and tell me all about it.

Raelynn: sits on the couch and pats the seat by her

Child: Smiles

Raelynn: calls back, "Yout, dear, can you get us some apple juice?"

Youtargim: Of course

Raelynn: Ok. Let's start with your name first.

Irma Hoehmann: I am Irma

Raelynn: Nice to meet you Irma! I'm Raelynn. Why don't you tell me how I can help?

Irma Hoehmann: You have pretty ears

Raelynn: Thank you! And I love your hair!

Irma Hoehmann: Giggles, thank you! I comb it every day with thistles

Raelynn: Well it's very lovely! That sounds like a good routine to keep.

Irma Hoehmann: If Willi doesn't steal my thistles too

Ulrik Ekenberg: sips his milk in the corner

Irma Hoehmann: Willi eats everything

Raelynn: And who is Willi?

Willi: BAAAAAAAAAA

Willi: and BUTTS into Ulrik

Raelynn: Oh good! I was just going to ask if you could handle that Ulrik.

Irma Hoehmann: Willi!

Raelynn: Since you do... farm things?

Irma Hoehmann: I am sorry he gets into a lot of things

Ulrik Ekenberg: fumbles and nearly drops his sword, half-drawing it

Ulrik Ekenberg: Fear not, I will protect you

Raelynn: Oh, I'm sure. Ulrik will handle him very GENTLY.

Youtargim: Comes back with juice and cookies

Raelynn: And keep him BUSY and CALM.

Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh, yes, of course. I'll handle the... Willi very gently

Carissa (Raelynn): (Sheep, ya?)

Youtargim: Sets them down and slips one off the plate exagerated stealing it from Irma

BOB Goat

Lemon: I'm guessing goat

Carissa (Raelynn): (same thinggggg)

Carissa (Raelynn): (actually no, sheep are slightly better)

Bixi Fizzlebang: You should check with Yout. I'm sure he knows a great deal about how to handle a Willi.

Raelynn: Cookies! Thank you, dear.

Irma Hoehmann: Smiles at Youtargim and quickly grabs a cookie of her own

Nibbling on the edges

Irma Hoehmann: I like these

Youtargim: Oatmeal, it tastes so much better this way doesn't it?

Ulrik Ekenberg: quietly, "In my village, I could use you as a dowry. Or slow cook you and eat you over the course of a week."

Ulrik Ekenberg: Don't push me...

Ulrik Ekenberg: normal voice, "Yes, of course. I'll get Yout."

Carissa (Raelynn): Do you? Maybe we should add it to the menu.

Raelynn: Do you? Maybe we should add it to the menu.

Carissa (Raelynn): (ugh sorry computer keeps freezing up for reasons)

Carissa (Raelynn): (I think Steam, we'll see)

Irma Hoehmann: You want to add Willi to the menu?

Raelynn: No no, the cookies. I don't think Willi would go well with tea.

Irma Hoehmann: I don't know if Willi likes tea

Raelynn: Is Willi your friend?

Irma Hoehmann: We never have that at home

Irma Hoehmann: just water or ale

Raelynn: This is very close to it!

Raelynn: points to the apple juice

Irma Hoehmann: and a very small glass once of a red drink

Raelynn: We also have milk. Er, if Ulrik hasn't drunk it all today.

Spring: \_(ツ)_/\_(ツ)_/

Irma Hoehmann: Well everyone has milk, cows, sheep, goats, horses, lots of things have milk

Raelynn: And Bixi makes all sorts of things.

Irma Hoehmann: Makes things with milk?

Irma Hoehmann: Like cheese?

Raelynn: Mmhmm! She's very creative with her cooking.

Raelynn: Umm, I don't think she's made cheese. Have you, Bixi?

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): You'd be surprised what you can milk

Carissa (Raelynn): (no comment)

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): (that movie was funny and you know it

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Irma Hoehmann: So can you make my Pa happy?

Raelynn: Well maybe. Why is he unhappy? I'll need some details to know.

Irma Hoehmann: He is always tired

Irma Hoehmann: I think it is the dreams

Irma Hoehmann: He says not to worry

Raelynn: The dreams?

Irma Hoehmann: But I think he should see a priest

Raelynn: I am a priestess, too, if it helps.

Irma Hoehmann: Aunt Snee is nice, but he does not want to go to her

Irma Hoehmann: OH

Irma Hoehmann: I thought you were an elf?

Raelynn: Oh? But Aunt Snee is lovely. Er, most of the time.

Raelynn: Anyone can be a priest or priestess, silly.

Irma Hoehmann: Really?

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): "I thought you were an elf?" Racial profiling starts early around here, I guess

Bixi Fizzlebang: I haven't made cheese yet, but maybe that should be next... I do love eating it

Raelynn: Mhmm! As long as you are willing to devote yourself to your deity! And not all of them necessarily care if it's forever!

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Bixi thought Rae was an elf the first time they met

Irma Hoehmann: If I was a priest could I make Pa happy?

Carissa (Raelynn): lots of people do and she's okay with that given she's half one so it's just rounding up!

Raelynn: Oh, I don't know about that. There's many reasons he could be unhappy. And that might make him happy OR it might make him unhappy!

Irma Hoehmann: I don't want to make him more unhappy

Irma Hoehmann: I can bring you to him

Irma Hoehmann: If you are a priest then you can make him happy

Raelynn: That might be a good idea. Then I can get a better idea of what ails him.

Bixi Fizzlebang: glances at Yout

Irma Hoehmann: The boys in the field always talk about how a pretty girl makes them happy

Irma Hoehmann: You are very pretty

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): "We'll make him happy, kid. All it will take is a monthly payment of $99.99 and his happiness is assured."

Raelynn: laughs

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Poor girl looks like a 70 year old man. I can see why the boys in the field never call her pretty.

Raelynn: I can see what I can do.

Irma Hoehmann: I will tell him you are coming

Raelynn: Oh! Why don't you bring him here?

Irma Hoehmann: I can try that

Raelynn: I've never done a housecall...

Raelynn: Although maybe we'd all want a field trip. Well see if he'll come here first.

Ulrik Ekenberg: gives up and just shares his glass of milk with the... Willi

Irma Hoehmann: When can you help him?

Raelynn: I won't know until I see him, but I can see him whenever he has time.

Irma Hoehmann: Thank you

Raelynn: It's a slow day today...

Raelynn: Of course!

Raelynn: Take some extra cookies with you!

Irma Hoehmann: I will try to bring him back

Irma Hoehmann: Oh Thank you!

Irma Hoehmann: Snatches up two cookies

Irma Hoehmann: Waves

Raelynn: weaves back

Irma Hoehmann: and calls for Willi

Raelynn: *waves

Irma Hoehmann: and goes out the door and up the road towards the center of town

Raelynn: Um, let me get you a fresh glass of milk, Ulrik.

Ulrik Ekenberg: immediately misses his drinking buddy

Youtargim: That is interesting

Raelynn: You don't need to dirnk that one... please don't drink it

Raelynn: What is?

Youtargim: She was not afraid of any of us

Ulrik Ekenberg: Huh... you city folk are a bit hoity toity, aren't you... I mean, of course I wasn't going to drink that milk.

Raelynn: Well I would hope not!

Raelynn: To both of you!

Raelynn: This is suppose to be a cozy, safe place. And that milk has GOAT germs in it, Ulrik!

Raelynn: They make you sick, not stronger.

Youtargim: So goat germs are tougher?

Raelynn: They're as bad as any other germs.

Lorie: (Tell that to my St. Bernard...she hates Goat's Milk)

Youtargim: So Ulrik, keep that glass

Bixi Fizzlebang: Some germs are good. They make you stronger

Youtargim: You can throw it at someone and make them sick

Raelynn: I don't think it works that way.

Raelynn: And I suppose so, Bixi. That's how you get some foods.

Raelynn: But NOT with goat saliva!

Ulrik Ekenberg: hefts the glass, miming a throwing action

Ulrik Ekenberg: Huh, I will keep that in mind.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't know, seemed like a pretty healthy goat

Bixi Fizzlebang: Maybe he's got the best germs

Youtargim: Winks at Rae as he goes to the back room

Raelynn: Well you do sleep with a boar.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I do not!

Bixi Fizzlebang: He has his own little house out in the yard!

Raelynn: Sure, now, but....

Bixi Fizzlebang: You would know that if you ever bothered to stop by

Raelynn: Well. You should introduce him to Ulrik.

BOB They agreed to see other people

Carissa (Raelynn): (lol)

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): sleeping in the pool house?

Raelynn: I'll come by soon, promise! Maybe on a cooler day when it doesn't.... smell as much.

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): (It just wasn't working out. Better to end it amicably and see other people.)

Raelynn: and the garden is in full bloom!

BOB brb refilling

BOB then you can do your dream work

Carissa (Raelynn): retirement?

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): I can finally become a librarian?

Carissa (Raelynn): There's an opening in Hell

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Is that near New Jersey? Because I am willing to relocate

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): lol

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Bixi Fizzlebang: (LINK)

BOB Later on in the early evening

Carissa (Raelynn): can't click it

Ulrik Ekenberg: ...and that's why sheep are better than goats.

Ulrik Ekenberg: Wow, I feel like I've been talking for hours.

BOB Nicely done Lemon

Raelynn: Hmm, you do make a convincing argument.

Raelynn: And they are a bit cuter.

Ulrik Ekenberg: Thanks. I've had a long time to think about this... before I became an adventurer, that is.

Raelynn: Oh, you'll have more time to think about it as an adventurer. Sometimes you get bored on watches, lots of time to think.

Ulrik Ekenberg: Y-yeah, that's been my experience as well.

Farmer/Herder: Hello? cautiously

Raelynn: Hello!

Farmer/Herder: I was.. well, I mean my daughter said I should come meet the pretty lady elf priest

Raelynn: OH! You must be Irma's pa! Come in, make yourself comfortable.

Raelynn: She said you're unhappy, but wouldn't say why. Would you like some tea?

Farmer/Herder: Nods, thank you

Farmer/Herder: I am not sure why she would say that

Raelynn: She mentioned you were tired all the time and Willi eats her bread.

Raelynn: Ulrik is an expert on goats if that's a problem.

Ulrik Ekenberg: I have five different recipes off the top of my head.

Raelynn: Or if you need help sleeping? Irma didn't say too much.

Raelynn: cough

Raelynn: And he's great at herding and caring for them.

Ulrik Ekenberg: Uh... yeah, recipes for... goat food, I mean.

Farmer/Herder: Willi needs a bit more meat on him before he goes in the stewpot

Bixi Fizzlebang: (LINK)

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmmOJx_Hxto&ab_channel=Rodgers%26Hammerstein">(LINK)</a>

Raelynn: I'm sure Ulrik can help with both! But I don't think that's why Irma thinks your unhappy...

Raelynn: Hmm.... are you married?

Farmer/Herder: Yes

Raelynn: And you're having bad dreams?

Farmer/Herder: Both of my wives seem happy

Ulrik Ekenberg: mouths 'both'?

Raelynn: Ok, so not matchmaking.

Farmer/Herder: I never sad they were bad

Farmer/Herder: I mean

clears his throat

Farmer/Herder: I am not sad

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Jeez, calm down Ulrik it's the... first century already!

Raelynn: Are you sure you don't have something on your mind?

Raelynn: [SKILL] Persuasion [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 17) [SUCCESS by 1] [d20 = 16]

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Maybe. I don't understand this calendar.

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

BOB is is the fourth century already!

BOB year 358

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): There you go! Fourth century already! Quit acting like you're in the third century or something

Leo Pölzl: Well I have had some dreams

Raelynn: nods and leans forward to listen

Leo Pölzl: But I don't think they mean anything

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): brb

Raelynn: Dreams can mean nothing or many things, but they're on your mind so they must mean something, even if it's just something to you.

Raelynn: Oops! I forgot to ask your name. Sorry, I get so invested sometimes, and I don't know if Irma's Pa is sufficent.

Leo Pölzl: In my dream I hear drums

Leo Pölzl: I am Leo

Leo Pölzl: It is nice to meet you pretty elf priest

Raelynn: Raelynn. Lovely to meet you, too.

Leo Pölzl: Thought I am fairly certain that is not your real... thank you

Raelynn: So these drums. What happens when you hear them?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Why does he have a different last name than Irma?

Leo Pölzl: It is like when I was a young boy

Carissa (Raelynn): (maybe she took the last name of his other wife)

BOB Drillian has a strong matriarchal tradition, boys take the father's name, girls take the mother's name

Carissa (Raelynn): there we go!

Raelynn: Oh? In what way?

BOB Over in Ancestry you can see that in the trees

Carissa (Raelynn): shhhh don't give her another site yet, she's not ready

(LOL)

Leo Pölzl: When I was a boy

Leo Pölzl: Out of the Skull Church we would hear drums

Leo Pölzl: it meant raids were coming

Raelynn: Hmm, and when did these dreams start?

Leo Pölzl: About a month or two ago

Raelynn: Did anything else happen in these dreams?

Leo Pölzl: I am looking for something or someone

Leo Pölzl: But that is easy,

Leo Pölzl: Both of my parents were captured by goblins and taken away

Leo Pölzl: When I was a boy

Leo Pölzl: so that must be it right?

Raelynn: Hmm, not necessarily. Do you know why you're looking? Are you looking to rescue someone or looking for someone to help? Do you have gypsy blood in you by chance?

Leo Pölzl: I do not know any gypsies

Leo Pölzl: I just keep looking

Leo Pölzl: Like I do not know what I am looking for but I keep looking

Raelynn: Hmm...

Raelynn: What do you think, Ulrik? You've been sitting there quietly listening.

BOB Or Lanek the Wise

Ulrik Ekenberg: I think we should take the fight to the goblins... Maybe if we slay the nearest band, that will help bring you some peace.

BOB and Licornah might be having tea

Carissa (Raelynn): (sure anyone can speak up)

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): (just got back so speedreading through the convo)

Carissa (Raelynn): (lol)

Raelynn: Have you heard any drums out your way, Bixi?

Raelynn: I mean it COULD just be a dream, but you never know. Maybe we need to ask around?

Leo Pölzl: I have not heard any drums in the village

Ulrik Ekenberg: I'm new to the area. Are there any nearby goblin bands..?

Leo Pölzl: Hourglass is not like that anymore

Raelynn: What village are you in?

Leo Pölzl: Thanks to the Govenor

Leo Pölzl: She is doing a good job of keeping us safe

Spring (Springity Thingity): i spoke too soon abiyt work. now i have stuff going on

Raelynn: Govenor Snee has been very effective.

Leo Pölzl: Her and her knight

Raelynn: Talwin?

Leo Pölzl: I have heard of him, but he is always gone

Leo Pölzl: He is a famous fighter right?

Raelynn: Mmhmm. I thought he was also her knight.

Leo Pölzl: Sundown

Raelynn: nearly chokes on her tea

Leo Pölzl: Sir Sundown is always checking on things

Raelynn: Ahh. Erm, yes. Sundown, of course.

Ulrik Ekenberg: We... could travel and see if this Talwin and Governor Snee might have more information. Or we could at least provide information from your dreams to them.

Bixi Fizzlebang: No drums in my area, but I'm not that close to anyone else

Raelynn: Maybe it's a metaphorical dream?

Leo Pölzl: I only hear the drums in my dreams

Bixi Fizzlebang: Maybe Zayden is practicing at night

Raelynn: Hmm, may I see your hand?

Leo Pölzl: What is a metaphorical dream? is that like when you wake up hard?

Leo Pölzl: Holds out his hand to Rae

Bixi Fizzlebang: Sure, but like, sometimes when I'm asleep, some kind of snuffling creature will be coming at me in my dreams, but then when I wake up, it's just Knotty scratching around outside the window

Raelynn: Er, no. That's... well, a different type of dream. A metaphorical is more... like it could mean something very different.

Bixi Fizzlebang: So maybe they are happening in both places

Raelynn: [SKILL] Diagnostics [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 7] [d20 = 8]

Carissa (Raelynn): illness check

Carissa (Raelynn): feel free to toss out ideas y'all

BOB Nothing visible, looks to be healthy hard working farmer hands

Ulrik Ekenberg: How long did you have the dreams for?

Leo Pölzl: Well I guess about two months now

Raelynn: Did anything significant happen two months ago?

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Nothing happened to trigger them? You didn't see a d

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Nevermind

Bixi Fizzlebang: Shouldn't you do his chart or something?

Leo Pölzl: I cannot think of anything different

Leo Pölzl: Irma started her bleeding

Leo Pölzl: But that is normal for a girl her age

Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh, bleeding? Is she okay?

Leo Pölzl: Looks at Ulrik puzzled

Ulrik Ekenberg: She seemed fine when she came by. I didn't see any bandages.

Raelynn: He hasn't had sleep lately.

Bixi Fizzlebang: He's new

Raelynn: Just a little slow is all!

Ulrik Ekenberg: looks offput

Leo Pölzl: Shrugs and turns back to Rae

Raelynn: So bad dreams around when Irma hit her moon cycle.. Hmm....

Raelynn: Maybe I should do her chart, Bixi.

Raelynn: Or both? Do you mind, Leo?

Leo Pölzl: What do you want to do?

Raelynn: Oh, just see if the stars can tell me anything about this connection. It might given her moon cycle.

Leo Pölzl: I would have to check with my wives first if you need me to have those kind of dreams

Raelynn: Oh, no no. Not that kind. I wouldn't intrude in such a way. Just a little astrology!

Leo Pölzl: OH you are a witch? I thought you were an Elf?

Raelynn: Can elves not be witches? Hmm, er, well anyways no! Just a priestess who reads stars!

Leo Pölzl: The Countess is a witch, she is very powerful, she has protected us well

Raelynn: Countess Branwyn? Not sure she wants to be known as a witch. She's just a very powerful mage. Not sure that's the same thing?

Leo Pölzl: What are the stars like?

Leo Pölzl: I have never seen them

Ulrik Ekenberg: What's the difference between a witch and a mage? I thought they all did witchy things.

Raelynn: Oh! I mean the ones in the sky! That light up the night.

Raelynn: shrugs at Ulrik, now confused, too.

BOB Remember The Mist, no stars, only two faint moons

Raelynn: Er, although I suppose you can't really see them, here. You have to leave the Mist

BOB I heard that the Inn has a fancy place like that with no Mist

Raelynn: Yes! It's easy to see the stars there!

Carissa (Raelynn): (you're back as GM)

Leo Pölzl: I heard that the Inn has a fancy place like that with no Mist

Lorie: (I think I'm logging for the evening. Have a good one)

'Lorie' disconnected

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Goodnight!

Raelynn: night

Carissa (Raelynn): night

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): night

Raelynn: Well, anyways, if you can just give me some details.... (lists them off)

Carissa (Raelynn): Well, anyways, if you can just give me some details.... (lists them off)

Carissa (Raelynn): ugh I'm broke now

Leo Pölzl: Sure, I can tell you that

Leo Pölzl: For Irma I know most of it, I think I know that stuff about when I was a kid

Raelynn: nods and listens

Leo Pölzl: But I never knew that I was supposed to know which way my mother was facing when she gave birth

Leo Pölzl: I never asked

Raelynn: It's okay. I might still be able to figure it out.

Leo Pölzl: Hmmm But Irma's mother was in the bed, it looks to the north when you are sitting in it. So does that mean she was born to the North? or to the South?

Raelynn: Let me see.....

BOB You wanted things to add to your charts grins

Raelynn: [SKILL] Astrology [2] [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 9]

Carissa (Raelynn): lol and happy for it

Carissa (Raelynn): give all your nonsensical - she can handle it!

Leo Pölzl: I always thought you had to have a hard egg ready for the mother after she gave birth

Leo Pölzl: Isn't that what the midwives do?

Raelynn: I haven't heard that one. Did you do that where you came from,Ulrik?

Ulrik Ekenberg: My ma always said it was sa sheep's bladder

Leo Pölzl: At least they always send me out for water and to boil it

Bixi Fizzlebang: Like a boiled egg?

Leo Pölzl: and then boil the egg

Ulrik Ekenberg: In the bladder?

Raelynn: Wait do your people do that, Bixi??

Bixi Fizzlebang: I mean, we boil eggs occasionally

Leo Pölzl: That always seemed to be the time the mother is screaming the loudest

Bixi Fizzlebang: But it's not related to birth

Bixi Fizzlebang: Ohhhhh

Bixi Fizzlebang: They were just trying to get you out of the way

Raelynn: Ooooohhhh

Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh... I wish I had known that before I killed Bessie

Ulrik Ekenberg: Poor Bessie, she had the softest wool

Raelynn: Er, what did you do with the bladder?

Raelynn: At least you can eat a boiled egg.

Ulrik Ekenberg: Tried feeding it to my ma, of course

Ulrik Ekenberg: She refused, but thankfully my brother survived

'Shislif' connected

Leo Pölzl: We blow them up and let the little ones bat them around

Leo Pölzl: They bounce a bit for a while at least

BOB Hello Sharif

Raelynn: Well we all certainly lived very different lives...

Carissa (Raelynn): (did her star chart help clear anything up?)

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Welcome! You have arrived at a crucial time!

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): We are discussing all the things you can do with a sheep bladder

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): So, we are agreed. Sharif will attach the drago-lich-in-law, and I will elope with the dracolich while he is distracted

Carissa (Raelynn): Hi Sharif!

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Hi Sharif

BOB You can make it up as you see fit Carissa

Carissa (Raelynn): well no because I can't figure out what's gong on and I need insight :P

Sharif: hi everybody!

Sharif: huh?

-> Raelynn: You can guess... maybe it is that Irma is now the same age he was when his parents were captured by goblins

Raelynn: Hmm....Leo, what age were you when you lost your parents?

Leo Pölzl: I was about 10 I think?

Raelynn: Around Irma's age?

Leo Pölzl: I guess?

Raelynn: So maybe you're feeling a little extra protective of her?

Leo Pölzl: I was taller than she is now

Leo Pölzl: She is a good girl, she does what her mothers tell her to do, she herds the goats

Raelynn: Yes, she does seem like a lovely little girl! And a growing one. And one you'd want to protect at any cost.

Raelynn: Maybe she's reminding you of that.

Leo Pölzl: She seems to like Jermias, he is Nat's son

Ulrik Ekenberg: Herds the goats? Where exactly is she supposed to be herding them?

Zayden: Somebody's gotta herd the goats

Zayden: they say

Raelynn: Oh! Hi Zayden!

Zayden: Hey Rae!

Raelynn: Zayden, this is Leo. He's come to the shop to find out why he's unhappy.

Zayden: Oh hey Leo, sorry to hear about your unhappiness

Leo Pölzl: I am not sad

Leo Pölzl: Irma says I am, my wives did not say anything about me being sad

Zayden: Nothing wrong with being sad, I mean if you were sad

Raelynn: Well, she is getting to that age, Leo. She's growing up.

Leo Pölzl: Yes she is

Raelynn: Hmm, well, I think you should see how that makes you feel, make sure both you and your wives and her all feel safe at home. Maybe your dreams are just reminients of your past bothering you again. Maybe it's forcing you to face something you didn't realize still bothered you.

Raelynn: And know you can always come here for help. Even if it does end up being goblins.

Raelynn: Ulrik has a lot of experience with those!

Ulrik Ekenberg: Yes, I've killed one or two.... hundred.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Maybe it's time to think about a third wife, another baby... that kind of thing. Keep the family line moving

Leo Pölzl: We have not had problems with goblins since the Governor came

Raelynn: Yes, it is the fourth century after all!

Ulrik Ekenberg: One or two hundred of the goblin menace. In fact they call me the Goblin Slayer where I am from.

Raelynn: And Govenor Snee is very well adapt.

Raelynn: I thought you were a Stormblanket?

Leo Pölzl: I will think about that, I would need more goats for a third wife

Ulrik Ekenberg: I am... I am... Ulrik Goblin Slayer of the Stormblanket Society

Leo Pölzl: Thank you for your help

Raelynn: You know, I do matchmaking if you decide you want help with that as well.

Leo Pölzl: OH?

Raelynn: Of course! I hope it helped some. As I said, you are always welcome back here.

Leo Pölzl: I have never thought about a Elf wife

Raelynn: smiles

Leo Pölzl: You are pretty

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): sputters

Ulrik Ekenberg: sputters

Raelynn: I don't think Youtargim would agree, but I do know some elves back home.

Raelynn: Not sure which are the farming type... but I can see what connections I have.

Leo Pölzl: I guess I would need more trees for that too

Bixi Fizzlebang: They don't all sleep in trees

Raelynn: You never know. N'laea is probably up in one now, but the elves I know, like myself, prefer a comfy bed.

Raelynn: Bixi has heard me complain enough about it.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Too bad Licornah isn't here. She could do with some socialization with the locals.

Leo Pölzl: Nuts and berries are easy to find for the most part

Ulrik Ekenberg: Maybe plant a tree just in case... Handier to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Maybe they'd be a match!

Spring:

Raelynn: Maybe. I've never heard her talk about what she wants in life.... does she want a farm with two wives and a husband?

Leo Pölzl: Nods and ducks his head, Thank you again

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't know, but she did say her family used to be farmers

Bixi Fizzlebang: So she has experience!

Leo Pölzl: and heads out and up the road

Raelynn: Anytime. Good luck in life, Leo!

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Love the assumption that if she agreed, the wives and husband would be hers, rather than she becoming another wife to him

Raelynn: We can ask her later. Always worth asking!

Carissa (Raelynn): lol

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): She's an elf lol

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Pretty sure that's what would happen

BOB and so welcome Sharif,

Shislif (Zayden): lol thx!

BOB tonight is Zayden's opening night show in the new theater

Carissa (Raelynn): yeahhhhh!

Shislif (Zayden): nice!

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): The groupies are in the front row, ready for "festivities"

Carissa (Raelynn): Rae helped match him up with perfect groupies

BOB so you can bandy about ideas for what to do, what you are looking forward to, what you want to present for the town

Shislif (Zayden): Go Rae go

BOB You tell me who you want to invite

Shislif (Zayden): anybody wanna do a warm up act? Some stand up comedy?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh god no

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Saw someone in half?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Last time Bixi tried, it was such a failure lol

Carissa (Raelynn): Rae can do a dance or song or whatever if he wants

BOB I think Ulrik will be an interesting opening act

Shislif (Zayden): Hey every comedian bombs sometimes

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Show off those goblin slayer skills!

Raelynn: Ooh what can Ulrik do? He is good for comedy.

Shislif (Zayden): I'll take a magic show

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Ulrik has a 5 hour TED talk about the many uses of sheep bladders

Shislif (Zayden): lol

Ulrik Ekenberg: Comedy? In... front of other people..? Ah.. Uh.... I'm more of a fighter than a speaker

Raelynn: Oh, fine. I can help be the opening act, Zayden.

Zayden: Do you know any magic tricks that may entertain?

Zayden: Oh wonderful Rae!

Ulrik Ekenberg: No, I'm not a witch. I don't think men can become witches, anyways

Raelynn: I would love to see what Ulrik could do besides slay dragon maidens.

Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh, yes, dragon... maidens.... the worst kind of dragon, you know

Bixi Fizzlebang: I think it's called hag when it's a man witch

Raelynn: I thought that was a type of food?

Ulrik Ekenberg: Dragon maiden...? Well, I suppose you can eat it if you would like

Bixi Fizzlebang: No, that's hog

Raelynn: Knotty?

Bixi Fizzlebang: No, that's boar

Raelynn: I thought he was a pig./

Zayden: so hard to keep track

Raelynn: Well that's confusing. So what else do you want for your opening night, Zayden?

Raelynn: We got your groupies and opening act. Anyone else special you want to invite?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Hard to keep tack, too

Raelynn: Are you singing? Dancing? Both? all of it?

Raelynn: Do you want decorations? Glitter?? Pyrotectics? We'd need to see if Bran could do that... I don't know who else is good with fire.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Lot of maintenance for boar tack

Bixi Fizzlebang: Oh, I do have a new glitter I've been working on!

Bixi Fizzlebang: It's very, very fine. If you blow it out of a tube, it stays in the air for a REALLY long time

Raelynn: Oh, nice! Do you want to use it, Zayden? You need to tell us how to help make this night memorable for you!

Bixi Fizzlebang: I thought it would be better for lotions, but it could work for this too!

Zayden: Oh I don't think we need anything too fancy

Zayden: I'll stick to singing for tonight, of course if Bixi wanted to do some interpretive dance I wouldn't object

Zayden: Ohhh that's a great idea Bix!

Zayden: is there any chance people could inhale it and choke though?

Raelynn: What if we do some fancy lighting? Would it make the glitter extra... glittering?

Zayden: If it's so fine I mean?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yeah, definitely. It seems to like, hang in the air, and then any time the light hits it, it's all shiny

Bixi Fizzlebang: The air will look like it's just glitter air

Bixi Fizzlebang: But just maybe... don't breathe it in...

Raelynn: claps with excitement

Zayden: Hmmm, let's make sure it's not over the stage, could make singing tricky

Ulrik Ekenberg: Do you have robes or such? We always wore fine robes when we sang back home

Raelynn: Oh! Good question. You DO need to look fancy that night, Zayden.

Zayden: I agree on looking fancy, but I feel like robes have a more monkish vibe

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yeah like, if you have some sort of accoutrement that kind of covers your mouth and nose but still lets you breathe... you might think about wearing that

Zayden: and cover up my face?

Zayden: my beautiful face?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Unless you want your face covered in glitter for a few weeks

Raelynn: I agree, your face needs to be on full display. But we can zazz up your clothing.

Bixi Fizzlebang: Bixi turns, and the light hits a little bit of glitter in her hair

Ulrik Ekenberg: is thunderstruck

Raelynn: I meant to tell you, your hair looks fabulous today, Bixi!

Zayden: Good idea Bix, we can just glitter up my hair without throwing glitter everywhere, then I can perform unhindered

Ulrik Ekenberg: Uh... that looks good

Ulrik Ekenberg: I mean, that sounds good

Bixi Fizzlebang: visibly relieved

Bixi Fizzlebang: That's a great idea

Ulrik Ekenberg: Good... girl... Good idea, I mean

Bixi Fizzlebang: I'm not saying there's such a thing as too much glitter but... why test the limits hah

Raelynn: Because we'll never know unless we test!

Zayden: That's fine, just maybe not on opening night?

Raelynn: Okay. It is your opening night, after all.

Raelynn: You get to call the shots!

Zayden: ohhh shots are a good idea

Raelynn: After show party at the inn?

Bixi Fizzlebang: Like with a crossbow!?

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't know how your audience would like that

Zayden: Like lil drinks of hard liquor

Raelynn: I think he means alcohol.

Zayden smiles

Bixi Fizzlebang: oh

BOB Ideas on the guest list also?

Zayden: Hey Rae, I'm thinking of doing a duet, care to join me?

Raelynn: I would offer the tea shop but... well, it's not a great place for drunks. Inns are better equip for it.

Raelynn: Oh,I'd love to!

Zayden: Open to all, we're not an elitist organization

BOB let me know how you want to advertize, invite, etc then you can work out the opening act, then the next and or main act

Zayden: we could flyers up all over town?

Zayden: could put

Raelynn: flyers, word of mouth, have the census tell people as they're census-ing

Zayden: Oh yea if we can the census on our side that'd be great

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): The census already happened, it's been 8 months

Carissa (Raelynn): darn

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Unless it takes longer than 8 months?

BOB I was thinking of any named people in the Estate you would want there

BOB Or outside of the Estate

Zayden: Well I'm pretty new to the estate so I don't know many people, but if there's anybody you all would like to invite please do

Carissa (Raelynn): Not sure why open invite doesn't work here....

BOB It does

Zayden: Knotty can come too Bix

BOB Just checking for anyone you want to be there

Carissa (Raelynn): Obviously Snee, Talwin, Sundown as they're important to the region. Then friends in other areas like Bran,, Indigo, ect and then just.... tell them to bring a plus one?

BOB Example Govenor Snee, or Sundown, or Jilly, etc.

Bixi Fizzlebang: I don't think he'd really like the noise... PTSD from the circus... but I appreciate it

Zayden: as long as he doesn't poop everywhere, poop is a real vibe killer

Ulrik Ekenberg: Poop?

Ulrik Ekenberg: Why would he... nevermind

Zayden: everything living thing poops Ulrik

Ulrik Ekenberg: ponders this

Zayden: every living thing

Ulrik Ekenberg: PONDERS

Bixi Fizzlebang: Plants?

Bixi Fizzlebang: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 10]

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): DO PLANTS POOP

Shislif (Zayden): hmm good question

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): My roll succeeded, BOB must answer

BOB Treants do

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): but not other plants?

Bixi Fizzlebang: There are lots of living plants that do not poop, Zayden.

BOB (LINK)

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

Zayden: Well that's true, I suppose all living things that aren't plants then

Zayden: Knotty definately poops, he's no plant

BOB Herbae Vividum A small and diverse group of plants known as herbae vividum make up the Green World. These animated plants are spread throughout the world. Unlike most members of the plant kingdom, animated plants are capable of independent motion and in many cases act more like animals than plants. One of the most common intelligent plant species are Treants who often serve as intermediaries between the green world of the forest and the rest of the world's tool and fire using races.

Shislif (Zayden): cool

Bixi Fizzlebang: Yes, and it makes great fertilizer for the plants that I grow!

Bixi Fizzlebang: But the concert scene isn't really his vibe

Zayden: circle of life that is

Ulrik Ekenberg: Would it help if we had a bunch of pooping plants?

Bixi Fizzlebang: I mean, if you could get the treant to show up that would probably be a big hit

Zayden: Oh that would be cool actually

Ulrik Ekenberg: Oh, those are real?

Raelynn: Valoris is in the woods. He's probably asleep, though.

Zayden: You can't ask that of the ladies Ulrik...

Ulrik Ekenberg: O-oh.... I-I'm so sorry

Zayden: Just jokin with ya Ulrik you good

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I have a feeling Zayden and Ulrik are going to be really good friends

Shislif (Zayden): lol

Carissa (Raelynn): lol hope so

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): For as long as Ulrik survives. Which, given he is a level 1 adventurer with subpar stats, why wouldn't he?

Carissa (Raelynn): Yeahhh you need to level him up

Carissa (Raelynn): At some point when Bob can help with that

Shislif (Zayden): will we have opening night tonight or are we prepping opening night for next week or something?

BOB We will see where the next adventures go

BOB for tonight

Shislif (Zayden): cool

BOB As soon as you are ready we start

Carissa (Raelynn): your lead, Sharif

Shislif (Zayden): hmmm, well pretty tired tonight so not feeling super creative. Do we have the opening act? Rae and Zay are gonna do a "Love Interruption" duet, thought that would be cool

Carissa (Raelynn): oooh nice!

Carissa (Raelynn): rae can do a dance opening or a solo unless someone else has skills they want to try

Shislif (Zayden): Open to all, we went over that, Bix will glitter up my hair. Maybe Zay should just wear something of Rae's? Like Bowie style kind of thing

Carissa (Raelynn): sure she can help him out

Ulrik Ekenberg: Demonstration of sword fighting? I'm sure that Ulrik could put up an impressive fight against... uh... Jilly?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I don't have plant magic, I just have knowledge, sorry

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Oh, I lied, I do have plant magic

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): Shoot, oops

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): I don't know why I said that

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): But no, I'm good being a spectator

Shislif (Zayden): cool cool

Carissa (Raelynn): because we're all sleepy and lagging from two weeks of tasting having a life

Shislif (Zayden): Yes Ulrik, perhaps you have some sweet moves you could show off? We could put a little background music too

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Lol, how many among us actually used our Friday nights to have a life?

Shislif (Zayden): lols

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): Becuase it WAS NOT ME

Shislif (Zayden): Not me, just played something else lol

Dru5232321 (Ulrik Ekenberg): "Bad to the bo-oone~"

Shislif (Zayden): ohh that would be cool

Shislif (Zayden): I'm sure we oculd find a watermelon or something you could chop up?

Lemon (Bixi Fizzlebang): You gonna do a gallager act?
