BOB Good morning sir
TMO: I hope so!
BOB I did post about the door thing on the site
TMO: JTom will probably not be here for the whole time, uncertain of when he will be on or off. He's got plans to play EU4 with a group sometime today. But it was also supposed to be yesterday, so...
'Shislif' connected
TMO: but I do think he'll be here at least part of the time
BOB Hey there Sharif
BOB and no worries on JTom I am glad he likes this enough to be here
Sharif: good morning/afternoon :)

Jericho: Hey everyone!
Michael (Jericho): Hey everyone!
Lemon: I wouldn't go as far as "awake" but I am here
Lemon: Hello again friends
Shislif: howdy h owdy
Michael (Jericho): A reminder that in 45 minutes, I am getting brunch, otgherwise I shall be Crack Addicited Badger in terms of mood
Shislif: ohhh what kinda brunch?
Jericho: The kind where I run to a Mexican food joint, say "the usual please" and then flee back here
Michael (Jericho): I'm so hungry, but they don't open until 11 my time
Lemon: I couldn't decide on breakfast so I'm just sipping a coffee right now

[250 XP] -> MeLange
Michael (Jericho): Oh, well that's free calories. I've done most of a Diet Coke to wake up and get angry at my PC for Unreal lol
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I went to the donut shop, got a donut and a sausage/egg croissant
Shislif: mmm n ice
Lemon: Well, I put a ton of half and half in it, so not really free, but it's fine
Shislif: picking up something sounds nice but I'm too lazy to go out
Michael (Jericho): That would give me the worst heartburn. No idea why, but Sugar and it's Ole Faitfulh for Geyer Heartburn. The hottest spicies foods on Earth? Nah
Shislif: bacon egg n cheese on a biscuit does sound good though
Michael (Jericho): No idea the logic there
Lemon: maybe i will order donuts
BOB I did oatmeal with cranberries, rode the bike for 8 miles, walked for 30 minutes, did a 30 minute strength class, and now with Mozzarella wrapped with proscuitto and triskets for lunch.
Shislif: oh shush Bob
BOB Now I can be calm for 12 hours
BOB and type away
Shislif: mr healthy over here :)
Jericho: Well, it sounds like bob is ready to lecture us on the benefits of Yoga, and tell teh rest of us: "Let them eat cake"
Michael (Jericho): We all know how that ended
BOB The Creation Station Monthly on Yoga was popular
Lemon: yoga is fine, I don't mind yoga, but I would literally rather die than eat healthy
Michael (Jericho): Ironcially, I may have listened to that one, which might be why it is popping into my head
Michael (Jericho): they kinda blur. I listen to ones at random sometime
BOB The Painting Epsode is still number two. The top show was Family Reunions
Shislif: I do like oatmeal even if it is healthy
Michael (Jericho): (Nope, neither of those ones)
Michael (Jericho): (but some others!)
Lemon: I like the oatmeal with sugar and fruit in it
Shislif: mmm
Michael (Jericho): I like oatmeal when it's mostly toppings with less Oatmeal. So...not otameal I guess
Michael (Jericho): :D
Shislif: I'll do overnight oats with like 2/3 steele cut and 1/3 7 grain hot cereal, then add some fruits/maple syrup when it's eating time
Lemon: yes, exactly
Michael (Jericho): It's a filler!
BOB We know that Wendy, Spring and JTom are going to be late and in and out.
Michael (Jericho): Actualy Sharif that' doesn't sound bad
Shislif: in n out sounds good
BOB Carissa is awake and moving
Shislif: it's good!
Michael (Jericho): sort of
Michael (Jericho): :)
Michael (Jericho): So
'Carissa' connected
Michael (Jericho): We waiting on anyone else at the moment, or is this the gang
Michael (Jericho): (for now)
Shislif: we still in GTFO mode right?
BOB is Carissa
Michael (Jericho): (I'm in GTFO Mode, Carissa can stay if she would like)
Michael (Jericho): lol
Lemon: lol, yes, I agree with GTFO mode, but how
Lemon: How is the question
[250 XP] -> Vee Barlett
Michael (Jericho): Throw a body against the door, and we sprint for ourl ives
Michael (Jericho): And Jericho prays that a Dex roll doesn't get him killed
Lemon: sprint for our lives up a slippery waterslide with three people down to 1 hp?
Michael (Jericho): Yep!
Michael (Jericho): LOL
Michael (Jericho): Sorry
Michael (Jericho): But, no idea how to get back up
BOB Do you think that is the way these people came down here? or move around on a normal basis?
Carissa: cat has moved, I am sad but here
Michael (Jericho): Bob, I don't know how these People think.
Michael (Jericho): This is weird
Michael (Jericho): lol
BOB I will refill my drink and be right back
Shislif: what if we close the door behind us? maybe they can't open doors
Jericho: I feel I was just asked. What, you think Manson organized everythign perfectly? I dunno, Manson was weird and evil
Michael (Jericho): I feel I was just asked. What, you think Manson organized everythign perfectly? I dunno, Manson was weird and evil
Carissa: I wanna know if that fungus staff makes mushroom ladders and stuff appear
TMO (Rothuss Carder): we don't actually know for a *FACT* that there is any other way back up to the surface. We *HOPE* there is.
Lemon: We gotta wait for Wendy for that one
Michael (Jericho): Great idea carissa!
Michael (Jericho): Wendy has called beyond the timespace continuum, she passed it to Vee
Carissa: we just need to get up this first slip n slide then we follow the footprints
Carissa: why create an army of podmen if you can't get them outside, that's bad pet ownership
Michael (Jericho): Agreed. At first "relatively safety" spot, let's get Orisons done
Shislif: well the owner would let them outside
Michael (Jericho): We gotta get you guys shored back up
Michael (Jericho): (the almost dead ones)
Carissa: exactly so we need to find the doggy door
Michael (Jericho): doggy?
Michael (Jericho): LOL
Carissa: Vee has extra dex bonuses in water so she's willing to try going up first
Michael (Jericho): Can you bring a rope with you?
Michael (Jericho): So we have grip it and hold on while going up?
BOB b
Lemon: Are there footprints down here?
Carissa: yes the north branch we didn't take
Michael (Jericho): (yes)
Lemon (Levi Reed): No, I mean, this end of the waterslide
Carissa: uh, Vee isn't ever not going to have her rope if she can help it
Michael (Jericho): is that two double negatives?
Carissa: you got tracking too....although it's probably all our footprints now
Michael (Jericho): are you taking it up there?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no it's a statement
BOB Never know when Ruffus will show up.....
Carissa (Vee Barlett): to hogtie him and toss him overboard
Michael (Jericho): It's a statement I didn't follow. Is they willing to trail a rope up the slip in slide?
Michael (Jericho): Or not
Michael (Jericho): I have an extra
Lemon (Levi Reed): She's saying Vee is very emotionally attached to that rope
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol the statement is she will never part with her rope so yes she'd have it with her if she gets up there
Michael (Jericho): OH
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not specifically that rope, but rope in general
Michael (Jericho): I was like....she has ropes or doesn't?
Michael (Jericho): OK
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and given it's the only rope we have now down here apparently, she's even more attached to it
Michael (Jericho): (Jericho has a rope on Inventory)
Lemon (Levi Reed): Levi's is (hopefully) still tied up at the entry
Michael (Jericho): I LIED
Michael (Jericho): I'm sorry
Carissa (Vee Barlett): does he? I thought there were only two totall so goo............
Michael (Jericho): Thta rope was used
Michael (Jericho): I do like FGU trackign inventory
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well then
Michael (Jericho): That is conventient
BOB Also remember to pick up your rations, etc.
Michael (Jericho): but not at the moment LOL
Vee Barlett: grabs her rations
BOB everyone gets heavier again
Michael (Jericho): OOF
Lemon (Levi Reed): Didn't only Spring drop their rations?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee did, too, to get another +1 to her attack
BOB Look at your inventory and see if there is something you can ditch so you can go faster
Lemon (Levi Reed): ahh, missed that
Vee Barlett: Someone grab some of these rations off me? Makes it harder to hit things.
Vee Barlett: Why they so heavy? Dried things ain't supposed to be so heavy.
Rothuss Carder: How many?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Seriously, it's like 20 lbs each?? wtf is in here
BOB a week's worth of food
Vee Barlett: Hmm, how many can ya carry? Like 5?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait one ration is a week worth??
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I have 10, for 25lbs. Speaking of which, have we eaten any of them so far?

Vee Barlett: Suppose I appreciate you killing the weird pod thing, too. Now let's get outta here, ya?
Shislif (MeLange): we could try following the water down the grate, just need a way to open the grate
TMO (Rothuss Carder): that is probably the wrong way tot he exit
The southern passageway from this cut-stone chamber descends and turns in a very steep slope.
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol yes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I was thinking that but... is a pool? do we need to hold our breath?
In this room, the river runs down through a massive grate in the floor, disappearing from sight in a splashing torrent.
Michael (Jericho): I am DONE going down
Michael (Jericho): LOL
Lemon (Levi Reed): And I very much feel like NOT going down another waterslide waterfall situation
Michael (Jericho): Also not going down the grate
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Vee Barlett: Lemme see if I can go up this way first. Like a slippery ship deck...

A wooden divider splits the river into channels here.
Rothuss Carder: is watching the door, in case any podcakes try to open it again.
Vee Barlett: makes her way up, finds a place to tie off the rope, and lets it trail down to the others.
Vee Barlett: Just like a ship in a storm. Come on up, y'all.
Michael (Jericho): (Can you bar the door somehow?)
Michael (Jericho): NM, Vee seems ready!
Levi Reed: climbs up
Jericho: Tests the rope
Jericho: Please don't let me slip
Carissa (Vee Barlett): she let levi have his fun, but now she's done
Jericho: Mutters
MeLange: Follows Levi
Jericho: [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 7) [SUCCESS by 3] [d20 = 4]
Jericho: Thank you!
Jericho: Wispers to Vee
BOB I canceled the move for Jericho
Jericho: That rope is the only reason I'm not swimming
Vee Barlett: Melange, ya good to take point again? That buckler is VERY nice against these things.
Michael (Jericho): What? Why?!
BOB Because you tried to walk through walls
Michael (Jericho): I passed the Dex?
Michael (Jericho): Sigh
BOB instead of following the path
Michael (Jericho): I thought I di da route
BOB That works
Michael (Jericho): OK. Thank you
MeLange: sure lets do it!
Lemon (Levi Reed): levi do same
BOB It also was 7 more feet long, so you used up 84 feet of your 120 feet of movement
MeLange: climbs the rope
BOB Which might be importat at spots
Michael (Jericho): So, zoom in for more precise pathing. Got it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): i read that as "at sports" which, yes, but we aren't playing sports right now
Michael (Jericho): but it is important in sports
Michael (Jericho): lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): Idk, I think rope climbing is a sport
Lemon (Levi Reed): At least it felt like it in gym class
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol good point
Shislif (MeLange): bounce bounce bounce
Michael (Jericho): (Bob are our ORB friends in your caress?)
Lemon (Levi Reed): Running out of room over on your side of the river there
Jericho: Rothuss! Come on man!
BOB ORB?
Michael (Jericho): One round behind. sorry
BOB Ahh yes they will be following along no worries
Rothuss Carder: Alright! Alright! I'm coming
Shislif (MeLange): do we need to roll anything to climb rope?
Rothuss Carder: grumbles, not looking forward to doing this with what feels like a cracked rib.
Lemon (Levi Reed): shhhh, dont' ask, jsut climb
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Jericho: By the way, you look like Shit, don't put pressure on your left side. I'll get it patched up soon
BOB No to the roll because Vee laid it out for you
Jericho: Winces
Michael (Jericho): MeLange....we owe you many drinks. And a bath
Jericho: MeLange....we owe you many drinks. And a bath
Jericho: Grins
MeLange: Hey you got me out the roots
Levi Reed: I can help with the bath
Jericho: I didn't do shit Melange
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Jericho: I just do the patches and rock throwing
Jericho: Smiles
Jericho: Let's get the fuck out of here
MeLange: lets get out of here first
Vee Barlett: Talk later. Let's get out. We're going with the footprints 'cause they likely know how to get out.
Jericho: Vee?
Jericho: Right!
Vee Barlett: points to the left passage
Jericho: Nods
MeLange: this path on the left then?
Vee Barlett: Melange and Levi, up front. I'll help with them hurt ones.
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Ranger Tracking [2] [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 17]
Jericho: At first reasonable moment Vee, we can orison them
MeLange: takes the lead, buckler in arm
Jericho: Just need some relative safety and a wee bit of time
Lemon (Levi Reed): good thing there's only one way to go that we haven't been lol
Jericho: I don't want to move Rothuss and Lirt too far
Vee Barlett: Then do it now.
Michael (Jericho): (Bob?)
Michael (Jericho): (Is this a "Safe" moment for Orison)
Michael (Jericho): ?
Jericho: Patting himself down
Jericho: murmering
BOB Sure as safe as anywhere
Jericho: God Rothuss
Jericho: Just one sec
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Lirt isn't here to get any healing?
Michael (Jericho): She can get it when she' shere LOL
BOB Can take healing
Michael (Jericho): BUT
Michael (Jericho): Hold up
BOB cannot use her spells etc
Michael (Jericho): Is Wendy in today?
Michael (Jericho): I only have 3 Orisons Left
Michael (Jericho): She has more
BOB She said she would be in but late
Michael (Jericho): Then, this is what needs to count for now
Carissa (Vee Barlett): why not use spells? no one is walking wounded
Carissa (Vee Barlett): only wounded
Michael (Jericho): I am using spells
Michael (Jericho): I have one left
Michael (Jericho): Wendy has two, but is not here
BOB Orison is a set number of points to heal, Cure Light is a random number
Michael (Jericho): So I need to prioritize
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Lirt only has Burning Hands left anyways
Michael (Jericho): right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oooh meaning she can't use spells because she's not here got it
Michael (Jericho): So, I'll heal who IS IN, right now I think, but I'll ask before each cast of Orison. Got it guys?
Michael (Jericho): We can confirm
'wyjyoon' connected
Carissa (Vee Barlett): how much does orison give up?
BOB Speak her name an dshe appears
BOB Hello Wendy
TMO (Rothuss Carder): and JTom and I were discussing it last night, he can't move before or after casting it, *and* it only has a range of 5'. So she'd have to stand there and let the enemy get WAY too close before using it, and then stand there and let them hit her afterward
Michael (Jericho): Whew ok :)
Michael (Jericho): Hey Wendy!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I AM THE SUMMONER!!
Michael (Jericho): We are healing people!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hi Wendy!
Michael (Jericho): Standby
[250 XP] -> Temperance
Shislif (MeLange): hi Wendy
Shislif (MeLange): brb bio break
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Michael (Jericho): OK, Ready for HP Divvy Bob?
Michael (Jericho): Wendy, don't do anything yet, we'll see how far this gets us :P
Michael (Jericho): 12 to Rotahuss
Michael (Jericho): HP
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (yes to TMO which is why I nixed it yesterday, too risky for her)
wyjyoon: Hello hello! What am I not supposed to do? I just got here : P
Carissa (Vee Barlett): just patch up Rothuss a bit then we can move again
Michael (Jericho): 12 to MeLange
Michael (Jericho): HP
Carissa (Vee Barlett): errr.... hold up
Michael (Jericho): Stop?
BOB waiting
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no wondering where my math is? how is it 12 per?
Rothuss Carder: Ahhh... ow ow ow... I could have gone a lot longer without knowing how it feels to have a rib move back into place at high speed... Thanks buddy. MUCH better now.
Michael (Jericho): It's because I'm divving up the Orisons. Here is the formula:
Michael (Jericho): Max Heal of 9 Points but Takes 9 Rounds. Formula 3HP + 1HP Per Level Jericho is at Level 3, so 6HP Per Orison Jericho can cast Orison 3 Plus 1 Per Level. As Jericho is Level 3 (3 Base + 3 LVL = 6 ORISON) he can cast 6 Orisons per LEVL 1 Spell Slot, and this will leave him with the rest of his LVL 1 Spell slots.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh okay gotcha
Michael (Jericho): (12 HP to Lirt is my next one)
Michael (Jericho): (but up to you)
Lemon (Levi Reed): If we're at a safe-ish spot right now, do we want to try the staff and the potion that I keep forgetting about? I don't know how to do those things, but... seems like they might be helpful in here?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Was gonna mention that too
Carissa (Vee Barlett): So you'd use 6 level 1 spells to heal them all up? Sorry just trying to make sure I know how many spells we have left
Rothuss Carder: Let me take a look at those things while Jericho here is working over the others.
Michael (Jericho): What no?
Michael (Jericho): I get 6 Orisons PER level 1 spell
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (feel try to test things out now too if you want, yes)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (potions always take a small sip first so you do'nt kill yourself)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): That's 6 HP per spell
Michael (Jericho): If I had all my level 1 spells, i'd have 18 Orisons
Michael (Jericho): 6 HP, for 6 Orisons = 36 HP
Lemon (Levi Reed): How much is a small sip? Like actually sip it? Or... like dip a finger in and lick it off?
Michael (Jericho): 24 has been spent
Carissa (Vee Barlett): No. And if it was then we haven't done it right for eight years
Michael (Jericho): There are 12 HP to divviy up left
Michael (Jericho): Bob, you decide this
Carissa (Vee Barlett): A single orison is just +1
Michael (Jericho): I wrote out the forumla
Carissa (Vee Barlett): So a 3 base is +1x3 plus +3 per level
Carissa (Vee Barlett): which maybe not my time to nitpick if this screws us on HP but it is confusing me from the past
Michael (Jericho): If Jericho was at level 1. He would have 3 orisons for that level 1 spell
Michael (Jericho): He is at level 3
Michael (Jericho): That means, that the Base 3 spells, plus 1 spell (by spell I mean orison) is he has 6 Orisons he can cast
Michael (Jericho): Now, at his current level, he can give 3 Base HP + 1 Per level
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Yes so should be 6. Again, a single orison is +1 to any stat. So three are 3 HP then his level
BOB I am re-reading both FG and the site in chapter two
Michael (Jericho): Stop
Michael (Jericho): I will stop until bob rules. I literally wrote this out per Bob
Michael (Jericho): We had a massive session at the island where we discussed this
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and I'm very happy if I'm wrong, but I will be mad at bob if I was wrong for years and he didn't tell me :P
Carissa (Vee Barlett): this was ingrained in me
Michael (Jericho): (Honestly, I don't have a bone in this race, I was never really a priest until now lol)
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I'm reading up on Bard's Identify Item ability as well. so nto watching here at the moment...
Michael (Jericho): (But i DO want HP)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): also would be background to why I've been so worried abotu healing
Michael (Jericho): It's why I was less. For 1 spell with 6 Orison casts, that 36 HP for a healing session between al lcharacters.
BOB So Jericho gets 6 orisons for 1 1st level spell. Each Orison heals 1 point of damage. So for the cost of one 1st level spell Jericho heals 6 points over the course of 6 rounds.
Michael (Jericho): That's why I was like???I'm not going to hold onto my spells
Michael (Jericho): That is my formula
BOB The alterantive is casting 1 cure light spell which heals 1d8 points in one round
Carissa (Vee Barlett): makes so much more sense on your side now michael
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm still confused, but this is not my circus, not my monkeys
BOB So Jericho has how many 1st level spells he wants to use as an orison? 2?
Michael (Jericho): Ah, but this is where now I'm confused on Origosn again bob. This was a really really big conversation. That means, when he casts a single "set" of 6 orisons, that is only 1HP
BOB right
Michael (Jericho): So, instead of 36 Healing, he is 6 HP
BOB right
Michael (Jericho): So, a level 1 spell, is 6 HP
BOB Every orison heals 1 point, he gets 6 orisons
Michael (Jericho): Then, I wil lpoint out, that two sessions ago, we healed the ENTIRE PARTY
Michael (Jericho): with just a couple orisons
Michael (Jericho): HOW
Michael (Jericho): (sorry, three)
BOB Because you were not that beat up
Michael (Jericho): Sigh
BOB and you also used Cure LIght
Michael (Jericho): Then, yeah carissa, you are right
BOB which gets you more if you are lucky
Michael (Jericho): Back to hoarding spells, because that suckis
Shislif (MeLange): back
Michael (Jericho): Continue on. I am reasearchign
Michael (Jericho): I'm not moving forward until I confirm this
BOB Confirm what?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ok, if we are pausing, then I would like to take this time to ask again about staff and potion
BOB Not sure what there is to confirm
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes sorry for that, but better now than farther down the road and at least now we understand our communication issue so... silver lining?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): and while he's doing that, I've finished reading up on Bardic Identfy Item/Legend Lore. He has a 15% chance to learn general purpose and function of any magical item
Carissa (Vee Barlett): staff, arrow if someone can, and potion yes
Lemon (Levi Reed): Actual sip for potion, or dip a finger in and lick it for potion? Levi is willing to try it, as he's not too low on hp, but I want to make sure I'm doing it right
Lemon (Levi Reed): As for the staff... no idea how to test that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Indigo always did the dip test
BOB Arrows are typically just a plus something and a one shot
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, let me see those things for a minute.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Wendy just hit something with the staff maybe
Carissa (Vee Barlett): all of this after Rothuss tries first
TMO (Rothuss Carder): "Furthermore, bards have a 5% chance per experience level to identify the general purpose and function of any magical item. The bard need not handle the item but must examine it closely. Even if successful, the exact function of the item is not revealed, only its general nature. "
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, okay. I don't mind doing that : )
Vee Barlett: gathers up her rope while everyone figures things out.
Levi Reed: Hey, who's got that potion we found? I'm feeling adventurous, let me try it. Maybe it murders all sentient fungus in a cave or something
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (so you say Bob but we got that fancy adhesion arrow once so I can have hope)
BOB Very true
TMO (Rothuss Carder): so theoretically *might* be able to identify the potion without licking it, since he doesn't have to touch. Chances are low though
Temperance: rummages in her pouch for said potion
Michael (Jericho): Damn, then yeah we need to quickly kill Jericho off, becuase I'm not going to play something THIS useless. This sucks
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol I was going to say Vee handed it off at some point
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, whatever works : )
Michael (Jericho): Guess what guys. That ONE Orison? Give 6 HP to Rothuss. That's all you get!
Michael (Jericho): Jericho's out
wyjyoon (Temperance): They asked and I wasn't sure who had it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (no to that because you'll be level 1 again and it'll be hard to get back - we just need to find a way for you to play him that makes you happy)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (even if you multiclass or something but that's a later discussion)
Michael (Jericho): I was pretty happy when he could actually heal, but this is just dumb
Michael (Jericho): A convo for later
Michael (Jericho): Let's just get out. This really really sucks
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (Rothuss can offer IC to ID stuff)
BOB He is healing just like every priest
Michael (Jericho): Yeah, but it seems when we helaed in the past, you know, people were actually healed
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you get better when you level like all things
Michael (Jericho): Right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well yeah, Rae was lvl 8 so she could actually heal at 12 HP easy with multiple lvl 1 spells
BOB 6 at this level once you get out of the story arc you might level up again
BOB etc
Levi Reed: takes potion from Temperance, dips a finger in, and sticks said finger in his mouth
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or whatever the actual math was for Rae but it was good
Michael (Jericho): Oh jesus
Michael (Jericho): Please don't die
Rothuss Carder: Who's got the staff and things? While I'm sitting here, let me take a look at them. Maybe I've heard something about them.
Jericho: Feeling a bit better Rothuss?
Jericho: I'd say you look better, but uh, you really don't
Rothuss Carder's health adjusted by +6
Vee Barlett: Er, well too late with the potion but I gave Brains the staff.
Temperance: hands off the staff to Rothuss
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, thanks again, buddy. That's twice now I owe you for.
Jericho: You don't owe me jack shit. I wasn' thte one getting slashed by over enthusiastic plant life
Rothuss Carder: holds the staff up and peers at it closely.
Rothuss Carder: [SKILL] Identify Item (general 5%/lvl) [PERCENT:Identify Item (general 5%/lvl)] (vs. Target 15) [FAILURE by 74] [d100 = 89]

Michael (Jericho): (With that, I will be back in 30 minutes)
-> Temperance: Temperance feels a bit happier, healthier
Carissa (Vee Barlett): peer harder
Carissa (Vee Barlett): tata for now
Michael (Jericho): (Jericho is tapped out, so this is actually a good time. Wnedy does have splles)
Temperance: Oh, I do? Okay, I guess
Rothuss Carder: Wait.. Here, Vee. Look closely, right here at the tip of it. That look like a maker's mark to you?
Vee Barlett: What about that fancy arrow?
Vee Barlett: Huh?

Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 11] [d20 = 1]

Temperance: I feel a bit healthier... if I could say so. Strange.
Rothuss Carder: pokes Vee in the forehead with the staff when she gets in close to it.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (from the staff? or the potion? Levi tried to potion)
Rothuss Carder: Nope, my mistake. here you go.
Rothuss Carder: hands Vee the staff.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (get it because mule so ass? ha)
Rothuss Carder: Mule!

wyjyoon (Temperance): I also made a wisdom check earlier : )
wyjyoon (Temperance): If that'll help : )
BOB Rods and Staffs are priest or mage items, wands are mage items
Lemon (Levi Reed): And I tried the potion
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooh meaning wendy needs to wield it if it's a staff
BOB So did Temp
wyjyoon (Temperance): I tried the potion?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Wait what? So.... what made people feel better? Potion or staff? I think only Levi tried potion. Temp tried the staff.
wyjyoon (Temperance): I handed it off to Levi I think?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I didn't have her consume it
BOB I am sorry I missed the Levi part of the line
BOB so Levi feels slightly bouncier, happier, healthier
wyjyoon (Temperance): "Slightly bouncier"
Vee Barlett: Was it really good rum?
Levi Reed: bounces
Levi Reed: Hey, this is great!
Levi Reed: Doesn't taste like booze but still makes me feel good!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): it's the fizzy cola from Willy Wonka
Temperance: nods, mentally recording the effects of the potion
Vee Barlett: Hmm, then might be good to keep when things get tough. Or now. Depends if ya think ya can keep going.
BOB Temperance can make an Inteligence check
Temperance: [CHECK] Intelligence (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 11] [d20 = 2]
BOB She is certain that it is a healing potion
Lemon (Levi Reed): yay!
Levi Reed: Nah, I'm pretty ok right now
Carissa (Vee Barlett): finally
BOB similar to a Cure Light wounds, but three times as powerful
Levi Reed: Just a flesh wound
Carissa (Vee Barlett): three times? dang okay so for when you're REALLY down
BOB No effects yet, you have to drink it for it to heal
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we can't split potions right? I know the answer but I can try asking again...
Temperance: It's certainly a healing potion. I believe it's similar to a priest's "Cure Light Wounds", but almost 3 times as powerful.
BOB Yes you can
Carissa (Vee Barlett): WHAT
BOB For this one
Levi Reed: Wow! Yeah, I definitely don't need that right now!
Levi Reed: But someone might...
BOB you can take a bit, take a bit, take a bit
Levi Reed: looks over at the bedraggled party
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I swear I asked that when Nlaea wanted to give some to Brer! UGHHH. At least her faith came through there.
BOB Depends on the potion and how much is in it
Vee Barlett: Hold on to it. You and Baby might need it.
Temperance: Perhaps we should prioritize some of our more wounded members.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): rude
BOB this has three "shots"
BOB Each is 1d8
Vee Barlett: And the staff? Any insight?
Vee Barlett: hands it back to Temperance
Temperance: holds it and attempts to rummage through her thoughts
Levi Reed: Temperance, hit me with the staff! Lightly
Vee Barlett: (LINK)
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNtTEibFvlQ">(LINK)</a>
Temperance: furrows her eyebrows and tilts her head
Vee Barlett: Er, why not a wall instead?
Levi Reed: Oh
Vee Barlett: I'm hopin' it grows fungus.
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 18]
Temperance: If I kill you, it'd be a pain to try and resurrect. And I'd rather it not turn you into a pod
Levi Reed: Maybe a wall first, I guess
Temperance: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 4] [d20 = 17]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee had her obs roll on the staff it that helped
wyjyoon (Temperance): Should I roll wisdom again? I succeeded last time...
BOB Temperance feels uncomfortable with the staff as she is not used to using that as a weapon, but it does feel powerful in her hands
Temperance: looks at the staff up and down
Temperance: I do feel some power radiating as I hold it
Vee Barlett: Yeah, so maybe don't hit Levi first. I mean, he deserves it, but not until we're outta the cave.
Levi Reed: Ok, now hit the wall with it. Gently
Levi Reed: And if that doesn't do anything, then me
Levi Reed: God, Vee, why are you such a fun killer
Rothuss Carder: Big swing!
Vee Barlett: I'd vote Rothuss, actually, but whatever.

Temperance: takes a breath, pulls her arms back and takes a gentle swing towards the wall
Temperance: *with the staff
BOB Thunk
Vee Barlett: I gave ya two hours of fun in this cave, Levi. That's more than enough.
Temperance: Bigger swing?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (do staffs usually need a power word?)
Temperance: looks a bit hesitant
Levi Reed: Nah, we don't want to break it
BOB Yes if they are like a wand, no if they are like a weapon
Vee Barlett: Nah. We'll go find a corpse for you to poke it with. Let's just get going if y'all good to go.
Levi Reed: If it's going to do something magical, it doesn't matter how hard you hit
MeLange: I'm good to go!
Levi Reed: If you wanna bludgeon something with it, different story
MeLange raises hand
Vee Barlett: Lead the way, Babe.
Temperance: brightens at the thought of experimenting the effects of said staff on a corpse
Carissa (Vee Barlett): LOL
Levi Reed: Back off, Vee, or I'll hit on your dads again
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol, Temperance
Vee Barlett: Nah, don't mean it as hittin' on him. Thought that was his new nickname.
MeLange: moves further north up following the stream
Vee Barlett: Or is there like...? Huh, we gonna need ta gossip once we get out.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (like Babe Ruth, man)
Shislif (MeLange): lol

Levi Reed: Some kind of rustling noise?
Temperance: frowns and holds the staff tighter
JtomTMO: Hello
Lemon (Levi Reed): Morning mini!
Vee Barlett: listens with her successful obs roll
wyjyoon (Temperance): lol Vee
MeLange: like trees?
MeLange: like outside?
Lemon (Levi Reed): What was it last time we heard the rustling sound?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Did we explore or go the opposite way last time?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): there was a spring gurglig but not sure others
BOB Vee does not hear anything over Rothuss and Jericho's loud breathing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but we are following footprints
Vee Barlett: annoyingly mutters "Mouthbreathers."
TMO (Rothuss Carder): we're having a competition. I'm winning!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Vee Barlett: Can't hear anything back here, but we know there were footprints up this way so just keep an eye out.
Levi Reed: mutters "dead ends or dead friends" and keeps going

Temperance: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 16]
There are over 100 pods in this large hall.
Vee Barlett: The track probably lead us out, but keep close.
Lemon (Levi Reed): oh for
Shislif (MeLange): nice
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh geez
Shislif (MeLange): 100 pods?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): pods.... not podmen... so.... we run?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Backs up and hopes he wasn't seen
BOB growing over a hundred very young pods in this chamber. Although the pods are full sized, most of the unformed pod-men within are no larger than a house cat, and their contents are not remotely formed into a humanoid shape. All the pods contain a foul glop that smells of fish
Levi Reed: There's at least one large pod in there
BOB pod men are tending the cavern, and they are supervised by one very large pod man the size of an ogre.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wut
Levi Reed: But like... a LOT man
MeLange: ugh
Temperance: So one large pod... with a lot of other pods?
Levi Reed: Smells like fish and... I don't know, I think it's a breeding groud or something
Carissa (Vee Barlett): unformed... so just... like...... gloop balls?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): this sounds so *incredibly* fun... but I think I hear my grandma calling...
Temperance: attempts to clarify information
wyjyoon (Temperance): LOL TMO
JtomTMO:
BOB restroom brb
MeLange: So I guess we're not getting out that way
MeLange says in a low voice
wyjyoon (Temperance): I need more warm tea for this
Levi Reed: There's some regular pod men in there... at least one huge pod guy... and a bunch of... goopy babies, I don't know
wyjyoon (Temperance): brb
Rothuss Carder: how long is the hallway?
Vee Barlett: How many regular ones?
MeLange: like they're raising an army or something
Lemon (Levi Reed): When I got up there I saw one "pod man large" and one "pod man body guard"
Vee Barlett: So we should stomp out the army before they actually become fighters.
MeLange: be a lot of stomping
Levi Reed: I saw two but... looks like a big cavern, there could be more, I don't know
Vee Barlett: Agree but... ain't sure how we're gonna get out the other way with them piranas and waterslide and waterfall.
Levi Reed: One is really huge though guys
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Think of it like ants, this is the queen probably, guarding the eggs along with the strongest ants
Rothuss Carder: sighs.
Levi Reed: The biggest one yet
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
BOB b
Shislif (MeLange): unless it's a soldier ant
Shislif (MeLange): or like Aliens
Vee Barlett: So we know at least two of 'em can fight, yeah?
Shislif (MeLange): we need a flamethrower
Rothuss Carder: Well... I got 1 spell. Makes me run *really* fast for a bit. I could use it, run all the way thru yelling blue murder.
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm with temperance lol. Gonna take a quick break and make a fresh pot of coffee... and then put some whipped cream on it or something
Rothuss Carder: They chase after me, you all break the pods.
User has gone AFK. (Lemon)
Vee Barlett: Hmm....
Vee Barlett: I'm thinkin' if Levi is all sneaky sneaky, maybe he can get a better look?
Rothuss Carder: And then I hide somewhere, or keep running.
Vee Barlett: And maybe instead of running, ya hype us up a bit first?
MeLange: as long as I don't get ensnared again, I could fight
Rothuss Carder: looks closely at Vee...
wyjyoon (Temperance): back : )
Vee Barlett: Yer stories. They make me wanna, like, REALLY kill things.
BOB Or just maybe valuable intel to take back to the church of the mists if you can sneak/fight your way past
Rothuss Carder: Vee... do you *really* need my help getting hyped up to gut all those pods?
Rothuss Carder: Inspiration
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (so we run)
Rothuss Carder: You know that's your dream job.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and/or fight
Vee Barlett: Guttin' pods in a cave? Yer an idiot. I ever tell ya that?
Rothuss Carder: Please. Instant violence and pure satisfaction. You know you want to do it.
Temperance: contemplates whether she can smash said pods with the staff
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (do itttt)

Vee Barlett: I'd prefer doin' it on an open ocean.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Or chant "PISS OFF, ALL YE ROTTEN PODS"
Rothuss Carder: Those are keeping you from the ocean.
Vee Barlett: Or underwater, some slimy nursey or somethin'
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (ahh he's inspiring her, NOW I get it lol)
TMO (Rothuss Carder): YOU BETCHA
Vee Barlett: Hmm, sometimes you make good points.
Vee Barlett: And they ARE taintin' the water down here, and I ain't about water pollution.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (lol)
MeLange: So this stream is basically just a toilet?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): TMO I sent you this a while back, now is your time lol
Lirtimya: (LINK)

Temperance: Water pollution is merely great for breeding diseases and sickness
Rothuss Carder: Levi, MeL, Temperance, Lirt... You saw what we just went through over just a dozen of those things. In there's a HUNDRED of them. Think of what they could do on the surface.
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): OOC
Vee Barlett: Toilet for them slimy pod things so we gotta kill 'em.
Vee Barlett: Cut yer love short, Melange. Can't let that happen.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol wendy
Temperance: grimaces at the thought of pods on land
MeLange: alright, well it ain't over till it's over then
Rothuss Carder: We're here, we're what's available, and they'll never be more vulnerable than they are now.

Vee Barlett: Lirt, you keep close, ya here? I ain't havin' ya fall on me.
Rothuss Carder: Anybody got any better ideas than using me as bait and distraction?
BOB A staff is a two handed weapon yes
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes
MeLange: I saw we start a big fire n run like hell
MeLange: I say
Rothuss Carder: Vee, if you put Lirt right nest to you, you can use your spear to hold off one or two while she uses her Burning Hands on them once, while you protect her.
Lirtimya: I'lll stay safe, if they get too close I'll burn 'em
Vee Barlett: nods
Temperance: If we can avoid any slippery oil, I suppose...
Vee Barlett: That's the plan. SHE'S worth my protection.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (oh should have healed her a bit but now we're on rounds so... ugh)
wyjyoon (Temperance): I guess Temperance will still hold the staff?
wyjyoon (Temperance): She can take a sip of the potion?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hold and switch if you need to but maybe it'll surprise us somehow
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): a sip for her, then two left for fighters?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): probably a good idea... I don't want Lirt to fall her because then we're on yet another rescue mission
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'm fine with that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and if it's 3 rounds of hyping us up then we're not wasting the inspriation if she does it nw
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wow my typing just... died there
GM: [+1] [d8+1 = 8]
BOB So 8 to Temperance
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no to Lirt
Temperance's health adjusted by +8
wyjyoon (Temperance): to Lirt, please : )
Temperance's health adjusted by -6
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Lirt drank the potion uness that staff is healing Temp :P
Lirtimya's health adjusted by +8
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yeah I have no idea what the staff is doing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): also kind of delaying for Lemon to return... lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Other than the fact that I'm hitting things, apparently
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I'm missing 7 hp, so 8 is enough for max
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm here!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yay
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm having a snack but I'm here
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Good as new, minus the spells lol
BOB You have two shots left of the potion
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so once Temp ishealed... we go fight and run as we need? Hopefully Melange and Levi take out the main guys? Sneak as you need?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): And if it all goes sour, Rothuss runs and distracts?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Should we heal Rothuss too? His HP is pretty low, especially if he's going in to distract
Shislif (MeLange): cool, real quick brb before we start
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
wyjyoon (Temperance): Also I'm getting healed? I didn't know that.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): if Rothuss can distract them away, y'all can break pods with abandon
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so then yes to healing for him if he's bait
Carissa (Vee Barlett): SHOTS SHOT SHOTS SHOTS SHOT
TMO (Rothuss Carder): they won't follow a distraction if they see you breaking pods. distract first
wyjyoon (Temperance): LOL Carissa
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh good point... but can he sneak past the two in the path?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): HOLD ON - BOB - Expedition Retreat shows as used on my sheet. Did I use it today already and not remember? Or did I just forget to clear it after sleep?

Rothuss Carder: OK, just making sure!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): OK, just making sure!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): didn't want to get all the way out there and have Bob say "Oh, by the way...."

Lemon (Levi Reed): It opens up into a huge space up there
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): Do we want to rush in, or try to lure them?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): TMO is offering bait so we can smash the nursey
wyjyoon (Temperance): So Lirt took the healing potion, right? There's two more shots of said potion left.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): TMO please reiterate your plan
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ah, ok
Lemon (Levi Reed): godspeed
Carissa (Vee Barlett): AND if you want a shot of healing potion
Rothuss Carder: Okay, look. I run in there, super fast speed, yelling, hooting, whatever. I stay out of their reach. They all focus on me and chase me. You all quietly come in once they're away and smash pods without anyone to block ya.
Shislif (MeLange): back
Rothuss Carder: And then we wing it from there, if I hide, or lead them back to you, or you start picking them off from the rear. Whatever works.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): how many minutes is a round again?
Levi Reed: Sounds risky. I'm in
Vee Barlett: Yer hide. Ya want to take a healin' shot?
Rothuss Carder: Love to!
Vee Barlett: nods to whoever has the potion to hand it to him
MeLange: ok let's get ready to smash
Rothuss Carder: If there's one thing I know how to do, it's distract.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (but alos yeah, got lost in chat, I think I told them to hand it to you but oh well, next time)

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Well, yeah I'll hold, if I had my acid arrow I would just sue it, but, we haven't slept yet

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Flammable babies
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that might be a war crime but....
Rothuss Carder: Hey, no one actually gave me the potion.
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Everything's flamable if you burn it hot enough
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ok, THIS might be a good time for the fire cocktail?
Rothuss Carder: Gimme gimme
Carissa (Vee Barlett): let's hope none of us ever runs for political office
wyjyoon (Temperance): Also oof that minus -3 on the hitting for quarterstaff
wyjyoon (Temperance): (Vee handed it to whomever needed it earlier)
Temperance: hands Rothuss the potion again just in case
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, but you're not trying to damage with it, we're trying to find out if it does something magical when you use it
Rothuss Carder: takes a sip
Carissa (Vee Barlett): thought he did but sure
GM: [+1] [d8+1 = 7]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): nice

BOB Rothuss took two sips, the first time he only got 2 points
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that was missed we didn't think he took a shot
TMO (Rothuss Carder): wait, what???

BOB Rothuss Carder's health adjusted by +2
TMO (Rothuss Carder): OKAY, I MISSED THAT COMPLETELY. Retract this last sip then

Rothuss Carder: peeks around the corner
Shislif (MeLange): oh I'm here :)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I see four pods on the CT
wyjyoon (Temperance): Should we have Levi or Melange take a sip before we go or are we already going?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh I missed that too lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Levi is the most hurt and said no thanks this time so... we can save it for him next lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): unless he has changed his mind
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, let's save the last for when we really need it, I think
Shislif (MeLange): good call
Lemon (Levi Reed): Somethign unexpected might happen
Temperance: grips her staff tight and hopes for the best
Rothuss Carder: tries to throw his voice to the northern passage he can just see. "Woah! Big Podman around the corner! Back up! Back up!"
Vee Barlett: moves up closer to the entrance ready to smash but not visible.
Rothuss Carder: [SKILL] Ventriloquism [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 11) [SUCCESS by 7] [d20 = 4]

BOB Yes Init for jericho
TMO (Rothuss Carder): not actually moving here, but this is where I was aiming for
Jericho: [INIT] [d10 = 6]
Shislif (MeLange): aimed and hit!
Lemon (Levi Reed): We have found a nursery/breeding ground. At least two big podman protecting it that Levi could see, but four on the combat tracker. And tons of not fully formed babies
Carissa (Vee Barlett): tl;dr We have a healing potion and used two of the three shots, Rothuss is trying to distact these podmen so we can smash up this nursey then escape
Lemon (Levi Reed): Rothuss is attempting to distract them so we can smash the babies before dealing with the big guys
Michael (Jericho): (How do we keep finding these specific nursery areas)
Michael (Jericho): lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): also still don't know what the staff does
Michael (Jericho): (why haven't we tried it on anything?)
Shislif (MeLange): they're everywhere!
wyjyoon (Temperance): But Temperance is holding and hopefully will smash some things
TMO (Rothuss Carder): BOB - hello? Are you seeing my posts? Or are they getting lost?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Hoping Temperance will get a chance to whack something with the staff and figure out what it does
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we did on a wall and nothing happened
BOB Is that were you want to be TMO?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so Temp will try it on a corpse next
BOB I did move Rothuss
TMO (Rothuss Carder): PLEASE PUT ME BACK.
BOB Back to where?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Where he started from
Carissa (Vee Barlett): he was there and just throwing his voice where he is no, not moving
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I said "I'm not moving there, that's where I'm aiming the Ventriloquism at"
BOB Sorry I did miss the not moving there
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I noticed. :P
TMO (Rothuss Carder): it happens
wyjyoon (Temperance): So who's holding the potion bottle? Did it make it back to Vee?
wyjyoon (Temperance): In case we need to use it later
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sure
Rothuss Carder: sets the potion bottle on the ground because he forgot about it
Michael (Jericho): So Is jerichos's role just to smash stuff here?
Vee Barlett: grabs the potion bottle and pockets it.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Any reaction from the podmen Bob?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that and don't die
Lemon (Levi Reed): In theory, yes. But... something unexpected could happen
BOB Not yet
wyjyoon (Temperance): I think the podmen only react to warm bodies, right?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (oh....they react to warm breathing things remember?)
Rothuss Carder: Hmm, maybe they're deaf
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (yes exactly like ticks)
Michael (Jericho): (OK. good. Just making sure there as a plan before Jericho started massacreing)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (Temp told us that too)
Rothuss Carder: Expeditious Retreat
Rothuss Carder: runs through, whooping and laughing at the podmen
[TURN] Rothuss Carder
MeLange: god bless that man

BOB yes
Vee Barlett: Not sure why I surround myself with idiots, but if it works...
Lemon (Levi Reed): oh god another door
TMO (Rothuss Carder): will stop there.
-> Rothuss Carder: The stone walls bulge and warp into melted-wax like shapes, a phantasmagorical nightmare of bulbous growths and abstract traceries. The river winds its way through a cut-stone channel in the floor and empties through a grate in the floor, crashing noisily against rocks below. A round desk carved in the same bizarre patterns as the walls stands near the floor grate, covered with papers and scrolls. The desk chair is a massive piece of carved wood, obviously not intended for a human. A scroll cabinet stands near the desk, and there is a bookcase with smoked-glass doors standing against the wall.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): also went silent when he entered the passage
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (we're all going to have PTSD from this adventure)
Temperance: blinks at the echoing laugh before it fades away
Shislif (MeLange): not an easy thing, killing babies
[TURN] Temperance - [Bardic Inspiration; ATK: 1; SAVE: 1; MORALE: 2; [D: 3]]
Lemon (Levi Reed): And I already have it from the stupid NPC in the giant fortress running down the hall and waking up all the bugbears...
Michael (Jericho): We could just not kill them. What are they going to do, knaw on us?
wyjyoon (Temperance): So running in and attacking?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Or should I hold?
Shislif (MeLange): guess we could just kill the guard n hopefully queen, then the babies just die of neglect presumably
Carissa (Vee Barlett): they're growing an army and we should smash them all
TMO (Rothuss Carder): hold until the podment move after Rothuss
Lemon (Levi Reed): They could turn into an army later and then we have to come back and fight them again for another stupid church mission or something
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (well if they didn't follow rothuss... kill and smash)
Temperance has delayed their turn until the end of round.
[TURN] Levi Reed - [Punching; BSTR: 0 | Bardic Inspiration; ATK: 1; SAVE: 1; MORALE: 2; [D: 3]]

Jericho: Guys, I don't mind fighting...oddly...this adventure is making me rethink a lot of things, but these are just...pustules
Jericho: Do we have to kill them?
Vee Barlett: They baby pod things so yeah?
Jericho: Er
Levi Reed: I mean... YOU don't have to, but I'm going to
Jericho: Sigh
Temperance: They may develop into more threatening creatures later on
Vee Barlett: points to Levi
Jericho: I'll throw a rock. I may need help overcoming my thing with actual violence
Vee Barlett: You can make sure Rothuss don't die if ya don't wanna pop pimples.
MeLange: We can take out the big ones first,then worry about the babies
Jericho: Sighs in obvious relief
Lemon (Levi Reed): We tried talking to them before. All they do is murder
Jericho: Yes I'll do that
Levi Reed: Yes I'll do that
Jericho: And I'll throw rocks at the big ones first
Levi Reed: We tried talking to them before. All they do is murder
Carissa (Vee Barlett): are you finishing each other sandwiches or accidentally copy?
Jericho: Don't let me die please
Lemon (Levi Reed): ddragged the wrong thing
Vee Barlett: Pop the pimples first.
Michael (Jericho): (It aint me :) ))
Vee Barlett: Don't toss anything yet so they move.
MeLange: Don't throw rocks before Levi n Me get a chance
Jericho: So just stay here?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (you can hold)

BOB He is out of the room
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Shislif (MeLange): maybe we should just run through too?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Hm. Move and save rest of turn? Not sure if I can hold twice
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I hate these pods
Lemon (Levi Reed): Hmmm. Not a bad idea. We can't run as fast as him though
TMO (Rothuss Carder): WHAT GOOD IS A DISTRACTION WHEN THEY DON'T GET DISTRACTED??
Shislif (MeLange): that's so funny a crazy man runs across their room and they just go about their day
wyjyoon (Temperance): He was too fast and furious
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I'm going to get an inferiority complex from this...
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
BOB They were distracted, they moved around looking for where that warm thing came from where did it go
Lemon (Levi Reed): Don't worry, it's not a complex if it's true
BOB But it disapeared so fast they could not find it
Temperance: moves behind Levi (and saves "action", if possible)
Lemon (Levi Reed): Rothuss still have a torch? Maybe he could throw it into the room?
Shislif (MeLange): seems like there's just 3 we need to fight, the bodyguard presumably being the toughest
TMO (Rothuss Carder): so what you're saying is I'm just TOO GOOD for my own good?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Like I said, too fast and furious
Carissa (Vee Barlett): llo
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *lol
BOB Spectacular
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so kill and smash
Shislif (MeLange): If Large pod needs a bodyguard there's a chance it don't fight much?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the bodyguard is likely tougher
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, and don't use the staff to smash babies in case it wakes them up or something. But definitely feel free to use it on an alive one to see if it can unalive it. Or control it.
Shislif (MeLange): so bodyguard first, if we can surprise attack it even better
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not sure how quick they move but Rothuss can split their party if he steps back into the room
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes to lemon
Shislif (MeLange): good point
Shislif (MeLange): he can keep the regular pod man busy
'wyjyoon' disconnected
Vee Barlett: remember Melange is best equipped and hardest to hit AND hardest hitter so... do as you will with that reminder
BOB She will be right back
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Shislif (MeLange): Lol yes he can go in first
Shislif (MeLange): will I be able to with the remainder of my turn? or wait till next round n everybody holds till Mel goes?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Levi and Melange focus on fighting, Vee will keep the squishes safe while we smash? And Rothuss distracts by being a warm body
BOB No more movement this round
'wyjyoon' connected
BOB Levi still can
Shislif (MeLange): sounds good to me

TMO (Rothuss Carder): turning around to go back, I mean
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oof yeah for sure, Carissa
Shislif (MeLange): parkour!
BOB Yes to tumbling, it would give a plus 4 to AC agaisnt the attack of opportunity if it swipes at you
TMO (Rothuss Carder): ok, but the skill roll wouldn't stop his movement?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait wait where's his +1 saving throws and stufff??
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Im seeing no adjustments
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay, if I move and switch to arrows can I still attack or is that it?
BOB There was no save
Shislif (MeLange): so much for the large one being a sloth lol
BOB It hit him and threw him
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I mean to attack saves and all. I see the effect but i don't see it added to the rolls
TMO (Rothuss Carder): instead of punching, the attack roll was to grab, and the damage was from the throw
TMO (Rothuss Carder): saving throw <> Armor Class
BOB I see that Mel got the bonus for his attack
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hmm so he's at zero... but that means not walking wounded right?
BOB Right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): thanks tmo
Michael (Jericho): No that means unconsious
Shislif (MeLange): got a tombstone on the icon
BOB IF you were to heal him this round not going to be walking wounded,
Michael (Jericho): Wendy, this is a Cure Light Wounds moment
BOB BUT there is no one who can do that before the end of the round
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that's touch
BOB No, cure light is touch and no one is near him
Shislif (MeLange): oh so he's not dead yet?
Michael (Jericho): (ah)
wyjyoon (Temperance): OH i can't move and do it?
BOB Not dead just at zero
Carissa (Vee Barlett): best we could do is Vee getting him healing potion before his turn
BOB bleeds out 1 every round
Carissa (Vee Barlett): every round or by his turn?
BOB Yes to Carissa
Shislif (MeLange): oh ok lol tombstone made me think he was dead
BOB On his turn
Michael (Jericho): (Jericho will do a healing proficiencyh and diagnostics check and bind wounds on Melange)
Michael (Jericho): (you guys kill this fucker)
Shislif (MeLange): careful though
Carissa (Vee Barlett): can he if he runs, though?
BOB Temperance is behind the curve still hearing the battle and Levi's cry when he sees Melange hit the wall
Michael (Jericho): It's not a spell> Jericho can bind wounds and move
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we just really need to make sure Melange can keep fighting
Michael (Jericho): Give th epotion to Jericho
BOB Can bind wounds
wyjyoon (Temperance): Um, so... go heal? Or move, switch to arrows and shoot?
BOB But not heal
Lemon (Levi Reed): Maybe give the staff to someone else? I don't want to risk Temperance in a fight but it might help us somehow
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but bind wounds would stop him from becomign walking wounded, right?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I can put it in my belt
BOB If done before his turn yes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so someone can try to run to Melange, bind wounds, and he'll live
TMO (Rothuss Carder): staffs are 5-6 foot long
Michael (Jericho): So Jericho will do that as soo as I can
Carissa (Vee Barlett): BUT you may have to do a dex check
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Like Vee did
BOB Will have a dex check
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah but if like, Lirt or Jericho can try to use it on a corpse, or an attacking one, maybe it will do something useful
Michael (Jericho): Well, not much I can do there
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay, do you want me to do that?
Michael (Jericho): but, not a lot of options
wyjyoon (Temperance): With a dex check?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes to Temp
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I'm hopign Vee can kill this podman instead of worrying about Melange
wyjyoon (Temperance): Not sure which direction I can move, so I'll try my best
BOB Temp will have to run around the corner in between the two podmen and across the stream to Melange
Carissa (Vee Barlett): will they have a chance to hit her?
BOB I stopped that
Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm thinking to switch attacking to podman large? It seems like 2 would be easier to kill, but large is the bigger threat
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes to lemon
Temperance: [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 11) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 12]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait wend
wyjyoon (Temperance): OH wait
wyjyoon (Temperance): Take back that dex roll
wyjyoon (Temperance): Waiting sorry
BOB What I am trying to point out. Have to run that path AND once she passes 60 feet of movement cannot do something at the end
wyjyoon (Temperance): OH
wyjyoon (Temperance): So I can't move and bind him in the same turn?
BOB You can move up to 60 and bind him
BOB So use the measuring tools for who ever wants to try things to see what your options are
BOB Temp goes this round, then round 3 starts
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you can also try to move to Rothuss and Vee and shoot at this podman
Michael (Jericho): Jericho will not be able to make that distance and bind in one turn
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OR help kill the large one
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Looks like only Vee and Rothuss can
Carissa (Vee Barlett): So you all need to focus on the threat and TMO and I will figure out who gets to Melange
BOB Temperance has not gone yet this round
Michael (Jericho): KK
wyjyoon (Temperance): yes I have not gone yet.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Just thinking about what to do
Lemon (Levi Reed): Can she pass the staff to Jericho and still shoot?
BOB she can move but she will not get a move again before Melange's turn
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Just to check, does Rothuss know how to bind wounds, or does it take a healing NWP?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): drop staff and shoot is always an option
BOB Anyone can bind wounds
wyjyoon (Temperance): I can also put it in my belt, as BOB mentioned before
TMO (Rothuss Carder): thought so, but wanted to confirm
Carissa (Vee Barlett): large needs to die before it does that to someone else
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, but I feel like someone should try to use it, and that someone should not be you right now, because you are too squishy
Lemon (Levi Reed): Jericho is slightly less squishy and in theory, won't be fighting anyway
BOB Do you remember what I pointed otu earlier for Temperance on her check?
BOB Rods Staffs Wands
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay. If I move to where Melange was positioned before he moved to kill that bodyguard pod, can I shoot at the large one?
BOB Yes
Lemon (Levi Reed): I think that would be too close for comfort. You could stand in front of Lirt maybe?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Um. It was something about wands for mages and staffs for priests?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't remember the details, sorry BOB
BOB yes
BOB that is the essentials
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so what does the wand do Bobbbbb
Vee Barlett: *staff
BOB You need a priest or a mage to try it
Michael (Jericho): Just give it to me then
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Try it how? Apparently they need another hint
Michael (Jericho): I'm not doing anything else I guess
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay, so should I try the staff? or Jericho try the staff?
BOB I was just pointing that out to Lemon saying to give it to someone other than Temp
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ah, but Jericho is also priest, so that would still work
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Okay yes to that, but Wendy is a newbie. How does one try a staff?
BOB Use it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Use it how?
BOB Just roll the dice
Michael (Jericho): Oh! Sorry didn't know that was teh question
BOB Say what you are trying to do
Carissa (Vee Barlett): There you go. Now you two can decide what to do.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Flame Strike! Flame Strike!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay. Uh. Stop all movement or flame?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll stand in front of Lirt and try? Is that close enough?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oooh, yes, freeze all the podmen
Lemon (Levi Reed): or control them
Lemon (Levi Reed): or whatever
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll try halt movement and then next turn control if it works
Temperance: [ATTACK (M)] [THACO(20)] [EFFECTS +1] [AC: 17 ] [d20-2 = 3]
Temperance: Halt movement, all thee Podmen!
BOB Ok
Michael (Jericho): (Then, explode!)

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol, but yes, fantastic
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol always is
Shislif (MeLange): lol i know :)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): hmm.... maybe hold and make sure they aren't moving, and if they aren't moving, we start smashing the nursery up while Levi takes down the barrel fish
Carissa (Vee Barlett): bob said you didn't have to roll so hopefully that's still true
TMO (Rothuss Carder): throw a rock at 2?
Michael (Jericho): Let's make sure that not repeatedly hitting them disrupts the sepll?
Michael (Jericho): some magic stops if damage is taken
Vee Barlett: you tossed a rock at it and Levi sliced it and they did not attack
Michael (Jericho): ah, that is right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you went before them and they did nothing their turn
Michael (Jericho): apologies
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, they didn't attack?
Michael (Jericho): Then fair game
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no that's why it was clear it worked
TMO (Rothuss Carder): OH, I missed that something actually happened, so sorry.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it was subtle
wyjyoon (Temperance): Wow okay
Lirtimya: Temperance, you have to concentrate to do it properly, don't try anything else when you use it, just focus on using it's powers if you think something's there
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ahh concentration spell, ok that's why you didn't have to reroll because your concentration didn't break
Temperance: Alright, thank you, I'll make sure to keep your words in mind, Lirtimya!
Michael (Jericho): Weould it be okay if we got our group back together before commencing mass slaughter? Formed up around Temp?
Michael (Jericho): We don't want concentration broken
Temperance: nods with a serious face
Temperance: and grips staff tightly
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the podmen aren't moving so that's just wasted movement
Michael (Jericho): I'm not owrried about the podman honestly
TMO (Rothuss Carder): does Vee still need rescuing? Rothuss is about to rush over there and attempt to stab
Carissa (Vee Barlett): i'd attack these and kill them and/or kill the babies
Michael (Jericho): OK
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if he does kill this one, Vee can give Melange the potion this round so yes to TMO
Carissa (Vee Barlett): feel free to toss a rock Mini if you want
BOB Lirt going to do anything else?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): forgot you were end now
TMO (Rothuss Carder): well, that's *assuming* Rothuss is capable of killing it. :P He can replace her there though

Shislif (MeLange): same
Michael (Jericho): I don't Suppose Wendy can order Large Podman to kill it's mini breatheen. Bob said they are like controlled zombies. They may not be smart enough for actualy knowledge they are killing their cohorts. That was a wis check from Jericho. WORST CASE, they just...don't?

BOB be right back emptying and refilling
Carissa (Vee Barlett): believe so to sharif
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you're healed and can move and attack

wyjyoon (Temperance): I may have to reroll to do other commands
Michael (Jericho): Ah
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh missed your question one sec
Michael (Jericho): OK
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't know for sure since I don't know the staff really works yet : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yeah think Wendy is right
Michael (Jericho): No worries. Just a thought
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and some command spells don't let you do that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it breaks the spell
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so without knowing not sure it's worth risking yet
Michael (Jericho): Oh shit. Then. uh. yeah, dont' do that Wendy LOL
Michael (Jericho): sorry, just trying to figure out :)
wyjyoon (Temperance): No worries, it was good to think about, though : )
Lemon (Levi Reed): I would think we would be ok getting out of here now with a functional staff, yes? Like after we clear this room? Because the sleep is going to happen whether I want it to or not
Lemon (Levi Reed): But I do not want to wake to find everyone murdered
Michael (Jericho): Honestly, if we can clear this room, let's do a loot check? We might find another healing potion. It can't hurt?
Michael (Jericho): Then we can get the hell out?
wyjyoon (Temperance): If worse comes to worse I'll keep using the staff
Lemon (Levi Reed): yes and yes and yes
Michael (Jericho): I wonder if the evil muttering is the original controller finding that we stole his command rod LOL
wyjyoon (Temperance): It'll be like a game of freeze tag : ) Except I'm the one that's freezing them
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that means no nap for you
BOB back

Michael (Jericho): :D
Michael (Jericho): (No just giving you ahard time :) )
BOB Yes if Temperance wants to change what her command is then it is a new roll
wyjyoon (Temperance): I know Lemon. She's going to sleep whether she wants to or not : )
Lemon (Levi Reed): Honestly, when I'm tired enough, the coffee doesn't help
Lemon (Levi Reed): But I probably have everything, it's Austin.
wyjyoon (Temperance): She downs energy drinks on Fridays
Michael (Jericho): Then, uh. Up to you Wendy, but hehe. I was just dumb on that
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll just keep them frozen for you as long as it lasts
Michael (Jericho): Oh man. Lemon, that stuff will kill your kidenyes. I know I drink liquid cancer in Diet Cokes, but kidney stones make me want to die
BOB So for Mel make a dex check to cross the stream
wyjyoon (Temperance): If I have to re-roll at any time I'll consider it
BOB and you get a plus four to attack
Lemon (Levi Reed): Nah, I drink coffee energy drinks, and it's like once a month

Carissa (Vee Barlett): so two more podmen
Rothuss Carder: pulls back his sabre, picks out a point under the chin of the slimy pod thingy, and pushes his sabre point up through it.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Honestly I thank Temperance that she's less likely to laugh at every moment someone says something funny

BOB Ok pause for a moment so I can make sure everyone understands
Michael (Jericho): OK
Shislif (MeLange): paused...
BOB You are in a very large room with a hundred or more pod things being grown, it will take many rounds if you want to try to clear out this room by hand.
BOB Also you have what Rothuss saw around the corner
The stone walls bulge and warp into melted-wax like shapes, a phantasmagorical nightmare of bulbous growths and abstract traceries. The river winds its way through a cut-stone channel in the floor and empties through a grate in the floor, crashing noisily against rocks below. A round desk carved in the same bizarre patterns as the walls stands near the floor grate, covered with papers and scrolls. The desk chair is a massive piece of carved wood, obviously not intended for a human. A scroll cabinet stands near the desk, and there is a bookcase with smoked-glass doors standing against the wall.
Lemon (Levi Reed): OR we use the staff to tell them to all spontaneously combust
Rothuss Carder: he hadn't had time to tell anyone, but now is as good a time as any
TMO (Rothuss Carder): he hadn't had time to tell anyone, but now is as good a time as any
Michael (Jericho): So......with that descritpion, back the way we came?
BOB and so you can decide if you want to spend many rounds here in this cave
Michael (Jericho): I say we do a quick loot check, and then skedaddle
BOB OR go through the library
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OR? Not both?
Shislif (MeLange): clearly we don't want to spend many rounds here I think ?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): we can split a bit - put the fast damage dealers like Mel on pod crushing, while observant people look around the corner.
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ok but if there's a scroll cabinet, shouldn't we want to see if we can get the scrolls?z
BOB You can spend the time here but just pointing out more civilized things around the corner so that would maybe lead to.....
Rothuss Carder: So, one thing I noticed is these things appear to be deaf
Shislif (MeLange): I mean we would clearly need to set em on fire or something
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we don't want another fight
Michael (Jericho): I'm kind of worried whatever sites in the chair will come back. We are not at peak performance. However, I will leave this to Vee as leader for this adventure
Shislif (MeLange): yea I'm down for checking out the library
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Actually this is Jericho's adventure :P
Carissa (Vee Barlett): BUT we don't need another fight
Michael (Jericho): Carissa, let's be serious
Lemon (Levi Reed): Scrolls could be amazing for our spellcasters
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hopefully without a caretaker these will die, and if not, we warn the church
Michael (Jericho): Has Jericho done any planning?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but we need to get out
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not so much about planning as deciding
Shislif (MeLange): but he said itj's civilized, implying we won't have to fight
Michael (Jericho): I agree. The church needs to know what's down here. Let's get paid. And come back in a few levels?
Michael (Jericho): Unless you want to do a quick rummage in the library, clear out a few valuables and then we GTFO?
Michael (Jericho): Sigh
BOB civilized as in desk, chair walls, door, not caverns with pods
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee at least smashed a few on her turn so we go
Michael (Jericho): Well, I do remember something bob said
Lemon (Levi Reed): I wonder if Levi can try sneaking in and confiscating some valuables?
Michael (Jericho): I will post it here
Michael (Jericho): is that okay?
Vee Barlett: so we take what proof we can from the desk and get to the church
BOB sure
Carissa (Vee Barlett): because they will barely believe us otherwise
Michael (Jericho): I will say, that if we go through the Library
Shislif (MeLange): that sounds good
Michael (Jericho): We brought up a critical fact
TMO (Rothuss Carder): bring back a pod baby and a pod man head?
'Spring' connected
BOB and Spring arrives
Michael (Jericho): Do we honestly believe that the Podmen are going the way we cam down to get out. While I HATE the thought of running into Chair Man (Patented Boss Name for Now), we MAY be able to find a shortcut out of this nightmare. Clearly, if there is nice stuff there, there MUST be an exit yes?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yesssss, let's bring back a baby. We've done murder and theft, why not add kidnapping?
Michael (Jericho): That is a fact from last session
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that's why we've been following the footprints
Michael (Jericho): I've brough it up, and we MAY be able to get out *Quickly*
wyjyoon (Temperance): Hopefully the command will cast long enough for you guys to explore that library then
Michael (Jericho): BUT, I DON"T KNOW
TMO (Rothuss Carder): going for the trifecta, Lemon!
Lemon (Levi Reed): Great, so onward through the library
Michael (Jericho): After a short recess for people bob?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Let Levi try to sneak and grab something first and see if he triggers anything?
Michael (Jericho): I don't want anyone to miss the cool part?
Lemon (Levi Reed): My nap will be hours, let's do the library first while I'm still holding on
Carissa (Vee Barlett): to Michael's point, this is why we're following the footprints because that's where things walk or am I missing another point you're making? just want to check
Shislif (MeLange): if we take a break I'll probably nap so best to get it over with now
BOB Say 10 minutes for everyone to grab a drink, plot plan and enter the libary at 4:10
Michael (Jericho): What I mean, is that while I'm terrified of another hostile encounter, I believe we can find a quicker way out
Michael (Jericho): :)
Lemon (Levi Reed): It's already 4:10
Carissa (Vee Barlett): than the library?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): 10 minute nap time! zzzzzzz
Michael (Jericho): I'm for that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sorry definiftely not being obtuse, just trying to understand
Michael (Jericho): I'll need 15, I actually have a couple quick things I NEED to get done today
Michael (Jericho): You're not being obtuse. We are typing out a complicated set of actions
Carissa (Vee Barlett): So my thought is we are following the footsteps because if things walk that way, it may be how we get out.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Which is not the way we came in
Michael (Jericho): yes. At the same time, I REALLY want to avoid confrontation if we can help it.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): And your point is agreeing we are going a way we did not come in, yes?
Michael (Jericho): Yes
Michael (Jericho): IN THE HOPE!
Michael (Jericho): Keyword HOPE
Carissa (Vee Barlett): agree and agree
Michael (Jericho): We get out quick
Michael (Jericho): OK
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Rothuss' spell will probably end before we get to teh Library
Michael (Jericho): Anyone concur or deny
BOB Yes
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I forgot to put the effect on him, and it lasts for 6 rounds
Michael (Jericho): Cool
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we may still have some confrontation with the owner of all this because PLOT POINT but minimize fighting except that potential
Lemon (Levi Reed): So we just need to decide do we go in the library, or keep following the stream?
Michael (Jericho): So, talk fast
Michael (Jericho): gotcha
Lemon (Levi Reed): Can I roll skills or are we still in rounds?
BOB Stream cuts through the library
Michael (Jericho): I am now stepping away because I honestly need 15 minutes
Michael (Jericho): BRB
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, then wtf is that closed door
Lemon (Levi Reed): Let's not go closed door
TMO (Rothuss Carder): that's incredibley bad for the books. All that humidity?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I agree TMO
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol lemon yes it's a don't find out unless we smell fresh air
Lemon (Levi Reed): We know the entrance is stream, so we should be albe to follow stream back up?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Can we tell which direction this stream is flowing?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I think we're going out a different way not the waterfall
BOB down stream into that grate
The stone walls bulge and warp into melted-wax like shapes, a phantasmagorical nightmare of bulbous growths and abstract traceries. The river winds its way through a cut-stone channel in the floor and empties through a grate in the floor, crashing noisily against rocks below. A round desk carved in the same bizarre patterns as the walls stands near the floor grate, covered with papers and scrolls. The desk chair is a massive piece of carved wood, obviously not intended for a human. A scroll cabinet stands near the desk, and there is a bookcase with smoked-glass doors standing against the wall.
wyjyoon (Temperance): BRB here too. Putting some dishes away.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but if the stream is emptying then it's going down. We are down. WE need to go up
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah but there were three forks in the stream near the entrance
Lemon (Levi Reed): We could easily be heading up one of those
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ah
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I was going to say you remembered something I didn't but I don't think I was here for that
Lemon (Levi Reed): Assuming we'er heading upstream, but I'm not SURE
Lemon (Levi Reed): But obviously upstream is the way to go, as we don't want to be going deeper
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
BOB and also Yes to Levi getting new checks for this room
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Alertness [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 10] [d20 = 5]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we cut through library quickly, swipe things from the desk, and hope for the best
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Direction Sense [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 7] [d20 = 8]
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Distance Sense [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 15]
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Ranger Tracking [2] [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 13] [d20 = 2]
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Spelunking [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 7) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 7]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): is Vee up there for some checks?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I misread that as Badger Tracking
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): Spring!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): SPRING! Hello!
Lemon (Levi Reed): hello!
Spring (Ratbone Carder): how oddly specific
Shislif (MeLange): Hi Spring!
Spring (Ratbone Carder): HI hi hi
BOB Levi knows that A - you have explored all the areas from the slide into piranas so far other than the other side of that door in the library
wyjyoon (Temperance): back with a snack. Hi Spring! : )
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I am FILTHY
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you missed the baby murdering but that's okay
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I ... might be happy to miss any baby murdering
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, dont' worry, we're also kidnapping one. You can murder it later if youw ant
BOB B - that with this being at least a second or third grate that means there must be a level below this too
Lemon (Levi Reed): I do not care about levels below, only above
BOB exactly
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol spring if it makes you feel better they're just gloopy things so more like pimple popping according to veve
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *vee
Shislif (MeLange): we eventually stopped murdering them because there were too many
Lemon (Levi Reed): So we are currently heading upstream, yes or no?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): The first word JTom read was a green EXIT sign in a convention center. JTOM - Go find the Exit sign here!
BOB and one last point.... the floor of the library is sloped slightly to send the water into that grate, so what ever is on the other side of that door should be higher ground
Lemon (Levi Reed): Fantastic
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Remember, the closest exit may be behind you.
Lemon (Levi Reed): Then yes to Carissa's plan. Quick snatch on the way through and let's go
wyjyoon (Temperance): Sounds good
Shislif (MeLange): agreed
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but after our short break, yes? my cats want food
BOB go
wyjyoon (Temperance): Feed your felines : )
BOB I will line up people
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and so do I so I'll be quick while you catch Spring up
User has gone AFK. (Carissa)
BOB Wendy fill spring in please
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes : )
Rothuss Carder: I just got this text from my wife: "Baby killer!"
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ok, well I'm going to do a nap. I will be back whenever I wake up. Husband mentioned something about going out and bringing food back, so probably whenever that happens.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): ooc
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol amazing
'Lemon' disconnected
Shislif (MeLange): in that case I will head out as well
Spring (Ratbone Carder): nitey nite Lemon
Shislif (MeLange): I was just waiting for Lemon to leave first :)
Shislif (MeLange): I also gotta make some food stuff so may be a while
BOB Don't forget about us
Shislif (MeLange): I'll be back :)
Shislif (MeLange): good luck!
'Shislif' disconnected
wyjyoon (Temperance): So tl;dr, this cavern had a large ogre podman who commands a small bodyguard podman and baby / juvenile podmen. We waited to see if they would take Rothuss rushing through to divert attention, and then let them attack first. The staff worked to freeze them up, Mel got two hits of the unidentified potion that turned out to be a healing one, and everyone took turns killing baby podmen : )
wyjyoon (Temperance): Hope that was a good enough summary
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Thanks!
wyjyoon (Temperance): I was here an hour late, so whatever happened before that I wasn't here for : )
TMO (Rothuss Carder): oh, we *did* kill the babies. I'll have to correct my response to my wife
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I did notice that the people close to death before were a lot less close to death
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yeah, the unidentified potion was healing. Unfortunately it's consumed, but once we get out of here Temperance can cast an orison or any healing for anyone who needs it
[TURN] Levi Reed - [Punching; BSTR: 0]
[TURN] Rothuss Carder
BOB all set to explore, I set everyone's Init number to the order they are in hallway
BOB I will be right back going to move a bit,
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I am sort of here once we're all ready to go, just need to stir pan a few times
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Everything hurts. I should take this time to look for medicine
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
wyjyoon (Temperance): Please do
wyjyoon (Temperance): I brought Tylenol in case this booster decides to do me a new one
BOB back
Carissa (Vee Barlett): my booster knocked me out, but not until 12-18 hours later
BOB please take care of your self
BOB From here out it is try to make quick decisions, move from room to room to get back upstream
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well with Melange and Levi AWOL now, would Temp be willing to give Vee a light healing at this pause?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes I would! Would that be okay for everyone?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Cure Light Wounds?
BOB How much would your Orison be?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Okay took meds
Carissa (Vee Barlett): 4 hP if she's level 1
wyjyoon (Temperance): Um. I have two level 1 spells
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I do not object to Vee getting healing
wyjyoon (Temperance): I guess 4HP then because 3 HP + 1 HP?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
BOB so 4 hp healed by an Orison
wyjyoon (Temperance): If I use one slot
BOB OR 1d8 healed by a Cure Light Wounds
wyjyoon (Temperance): And Cure Light Wounds would be random, right?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): apparently Michael had the math wrong earlier so not sure you did as well, but one orison with a base of three
Carissa (Vee Barlett): how much time would it take for Ratbone to hype us up?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or can she hype us up as we move and hope we don't have combat until we're hyped?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I don't think Inspiration will help healing
Michael (Jericho): Back
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no but I'll take any bonuses to rolls I can get
Spring (Ratbone Carder): We are not in combat now? It takes 3 rounds of continuous performance
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if it doesn't cost much in time or skills
Spring (Ratbone Carder): It costs time
Carissa (Vee Barlett): can she do that as we move, tho?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): That part I don't know, will look again
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and we hope three rounds worth pass before it becomes a problem? that way we aren't stopping
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I need to go start cooking dinner, it shouldn't take me too long, after I do the start I just leave it for a few hours, I'll be back!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): go make food
'JtomTMO' disconnected
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't mind using Orison either. I'll just be down to one spell slot afterwards
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes please
Carissa (Vee Barlett): just one for now for Vee
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Inspiration won't help with healing. It's only good for attack, saves, and any belief-based stuff that requires morale
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and from now on, if we see podmen, we just go past them
Michael (Jericho): Agreed
Vee Barlett: Yes I know for inspiration, don't want it for healing. Just want it for any bonuses to rolls.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Michael (Jericho): Yep!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay, so do I roll on Vee's token? Kinda forgot how to cast
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Oh in case of attack, got it
Michael (Jericho): I noticed that Jericho was hitting A LOT more
Carissa (Vee Barlett): for orison just tell bob how many and to who
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Temp be ready with staff commands
Michael (Jericho): And we may need to just introduce a character growth story element after this mission. Jericho is getting more familiar with blood and gore, it just might still be hard to hit something with a club
wyjyoon (Temperance): I can give 4 HP for one spell slot with Orison. Do you want me to divide that or do you want me to go all in on Vee?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that works for him
Carissa (Vee Barlett): all to Vee please
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): since our two other fighters are napping
Michael (Jericho): both in game for now, and OO game :)
Temperance: [INIT] [MOD:Orison] [d10+4 = 7]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I think we can easily find some justification for Jericho if you're wanting to go that route, we just need to know you were
Vee Barlett's health adjusted by +4
Michael (Jericho): ON the plus side, got my car battery replaced, so I accomplished something!
wyjyoon (Temperance): To Vee Bob, if you please
BOB Vee Barlett's health adjusted by +4
Spring (Ratbone Carder): yay michael!
Michael (Jericho): He was in about 5 years IRL, but this was ridiculous
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and maybe the horrors of the cave made him okay with throwing rocks, but clubs are just still way too close and personal and that's okay
Carissa (Vee Barlett): also why throwing fire is okay because he's not touching them directly
Michael (Jericho): Maybe COUGH, Vee could offer to spar, that way he feels less ackward about a club...
wyjyoon (Temperance): And yes Carissa I'll be ready with staff for commands should anything happen
Michael (Jericho): Maybe even take a WP for an actual weapon lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Can I move and concentrate when casting at the same time though?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I don't see anything in the description about inspiration halting because the bard is on the move
wyjyoon (Temperance): Don't know what level of concentration this thing needs
BOB Correct for Spring
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I think I get to sing and walk at the same time. if needed, i can dance along
Michael (Jericho): Since Vee maybe pisses him off, but views her as a mostly friend. Frankly, with how much they've been through in such a short amount of time, it brings people closer together. Just ask my team at work. holy shit we went from dysfunctional to a well oiled machine
Spring (Ratbone Carder): But I have to do all the inspiring before combat, and then inspiration lasts 2 rounds at my level
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you moved and concentrated earlier, but probably a slow walk/limited movement
BOB and for Wendy, it is a learnign experience but thinking about how well can you concentrate on something and then doing soemthing else
Michael (Jericho): well, that was two teams ago anyways
Michael (Jericho): diff company
BOB when TMO is back and ready
BOB the five of you can move into the library
Michael (Jericho): Cautiosly
TMO (Rothuss Carder): be right with you
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and yes to michael (went to stir food) we can explore that later
TMO (Rothuss Carder): on discord call
Carissa (Vee Barlett): how dare you
BOB No worries
Michael (Jericho): stirring food is important
Spring (Ratbone Carder): So we are finding that with podmen it's just best to rush by them?
Michael (Jericho): nods sagely
BOB I have a plan for Jericho.....
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well given how hurt we are and with no healing left .... yes
Michael (Jericho): Oh FUCK,
Michael (Jericho): The last time you had a plan
Michael (Jericho): for a character of mine
BOB It is in the notes about the pantheon
Michael (Jericho): (sorry for language)
Spring (Ratbone Carder): The Cylons. They have a plan.
Michael (Jericho): (My heart stopped)
BOB so after you get to the Church of the Mists
BOB can enlighten you more
Carissa (Vee Barlett): So the current plan is rush throuhg the library, someone grab what they can off the desk, and we go. Maybe try to grab some scrolls if anyone is feeling brave, but no more exploring. We're getting out.
Michael (Jericho): get there? Hell, I just want to live long enough to escape the 9th circule of the hells
Michael (Jericho): we might as well be in Avernus
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if Bob believes in us, we must believe in ourselves
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or something
Michael (Jericho): something something cat poster "Hang in there"
Michael (Jericho): :)
wyjyoon (Temperance): As Carissa said yesterday
Spring (Ratbone Carder): :-)
Temperance: BELIEF
wyjyoon (Temperance): OOC
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
BOB Poster with a mushroom growing out of a frog... I believe in you
Michael (Jericho): Bob...I want to say something REALLY inappropirate at you at the moment
Michael (Jericho): but Mini might see it
BOB That is a real thing
Michael (Jericho): Wait
Michael (Jericho): Please tell me it isen't
BOB go look for mushroom growing out of frog
Michael (Jericho): I'll never be able to look at onther mushroom or slime creature again
Michael (Jericho): gags
BOB The frog is alive
Carissa (Vee Barlett): fungus is the number one frog killed besides predation
Carissa (Vee Barlett): poor things are very susceptible to fungus
Michael (Jericho): So soon to be dead frog
Carissa (Vee Barlett): depends on the fungus on how quick but usually yes
wyjyoon (Temperance): Poor frogs : (
Michael (Jericho): because of the mucus?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes their skin barrier just isn't well equip to handle fungus with some species exceptions
Michael (Jericho): Yeah, poor frogs
TMO (Rothuss Carder): back
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the main one killing them now came from african claw frogs imports who are resistent but the one shere are not
TMO (Rothuss Carder): sorry to keep you
Carissa (Vee Barlett): forget which fungus...white spot or something?
Michael (Jericho): Fungal stuff is really really bad. It's also a terrible fate for humans too
Michael (Jericho): Medicine can only do so much for that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Chytrid
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well yeah, because we haven't done research on it like we have with antibiotics
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's probably less the fungus and more our lacking investment in caring
wyjyoon (Temperance): Well... frogs and fungus might be something Temperance might want to research later : ) In addition to many other things
Michael (Jericho): I may be mistaken, but I thought that fungal stuff is almost certain death if in your body
BOB I am ready when you are
TMO (Rothuss Carder): to avoid me slowing you all down by reading everything that's happened right now, any highlights I should be aware of first?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): and I'll read the rest in the archives later
Michael (Jericho): Mostly just talkinga bout unfortunate frogs
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Nah, we have anti-fungals and most deaths so far are usually immune compromised, but we don't have a lot of antifungals to use and they grow resistence so... we have less we can try
Michael (Jericho): We decided if any more (good to know carissa!), pods, we just run TMO
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Plan is: We run. We don't kill pods. Someone brave can search for scrolls quickly. Someone else grab stuff of the desk. We don't waste time. We go. From the library to wherever.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Other than the plan of going in quick, grabbing things from the desk, and getting out, we talked about frogs : )
Michael (Jericho): We are entering the library. Remember, "Silence in the Library" Just because it looks empty...
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I'm all out of superspeed for the day
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee can keep watch so someone else(s) can do a quick rummage. Ratbone will attempt to inspire as we walk. Temp has the staff in case.
wyjyoon (Temperance): Should we have specific people grabbing things?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): So, uh, really that leaves Rothuss and Jericho free to quickly grab things
Michael (Jericho): Anything magical or artifact is good. Scrolss and evidence is also good
BOB When you are ready I will repost the descriptions
Michael (Jericho): We did get the evidence right?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Forgot Temperance was holding the staff
Michael (Jericho): Someone took a Head or something?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): No evidence yet. Except maybe a corpse and the staff. That's why the notes on the desk should be an easy swipe. The scrolls... might be locked away so we may have to leave them.
Michael (Jericho): Also might be trapped.
Michael (Jericho): There is a level one spell for detect traps, but Jericho is tapped out
Carissa (Vee Barlett): We can look and see without touching the notes.
wyjyoon (Temperance): I have one level one spell
Carissa (Vee Barlett): The scrolls I worry might be a trap. But the notes could be about the church or something.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Save it, Wendy. That is our literal last healing
Michael (Jericho): I'm down for that first, and then we figure out the rest
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes : )
Michael (Jericho): And kinda agree Wendy :)
Effect ['Bardic Inspiration;ATK: 1;SAVE: 1;MORALE: 2'] -> [to Ratbone Carder]
Michael (Jericho): Not tring to tell you or anything, just a consideration :)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): my food is cooking slowly so ready whenever
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Hm, how do I make inspiration work on us all?
Michael (Jericho): Also, I lied. Detect traps i slater. This was snares or pits
wyjyoon (Temperance): Nah, I like to take feedback! It's all a learning experience for me, so it helps : )
Michael (Jericho): :D
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Oh, definitely considered it. But it doesn't expect anything down here so I wouldn't expect the desk to be trapped. The scrolls, maybe. The bookcase that is closed? Probably.
Michael (Jericho): So...roll checks!
BOB You drag the Effect to each Token on the Combat Tracker
Carissa (Vee Barlett): a question for TMO, Spring
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or Bob lol
Michael (Jericho): Jericho is looking for anything that can give us greater insight into what is going on down here.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): also remind us what Levi got with his rolls?
Jericho: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 19) [SUCCESS by 4] [d20 = 15]
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I think his rolls said yes go through the library?
Michael (Jericho): The only stat Jericho is good for. The 19 Wisdom
TMO (Rothuss Carder): click the magnifying glass next to Inspiration, drag the little manikin effect to each person affected
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but never hurts to roll others
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if you fail you learn nothing... but you learn nothing if you don't roll, either
Jericho: [CHECK] Intelligence (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 10] [d20 = 4]

BOB So are you ready ?

Jericho: [SKILL] Investigation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 12) [FAILURE by 5] [d20 = 17]
Temperance: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 11]

Michael (Jericho): I think we rolled enough proficiencies
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you usually don't need to unless it's a difficult thing to read
Effect ['Bardic Inspiration;ATK: 1;SAVE: 1;MORALE: 2'] -> [to Levi Reed] [by Ratbone Carder]
Ratbone Carder: singing

Vee Barlett: tries to smell fresh air but it's too humid
Ratbone Carder: Several times, just this week, we have nearly died
BOB Ok so I am going to start with the descriptions then
Michael (Jericho): Yeah...
The stone walls bulge and warp into melted-wax like shapes, a phantasmagorical nightmare of bulbous growths and abstract traceries. The river winds its way through a cut-stone channel in the floor and empties through a grate in the floor, crashing noisily against rocks below. A round desk carved in the same bizarre patterns as the walls stands near the floor grate, covered with papers and scrolls. The desk chair is a massive piece of carved wood, obviously not intended for a human. A scroll cabinet stands near the desk, and there is a bookcase with smoked-glass doors standing against the wall.
BOB and from that what are you making those rolls against?
Ratbone Carder: Here we are, kicking ass, and we haven't fried!
Michael (Jericho): Specifically, Jericho is looking for evidence and an idea of the goal down here for Chair Villian
Michael (Jericho): Not artifcats
Michael (Jericho): Not magic
Ratbone Carder: WE ARE THE BEST! Now let's loot the room!
Michael (Jericho): Just evidence and understanding
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (and looking at the desk and the papers?)
Ratbone Carder: WE ARE THE BEST! We have no time for gloom!
Michael (Jericho): (All of the above)
Michael (Jericho): (Any theives to look for valuable?)
Michael (Jericho): (not sure if we have that class)
Michael (Jericho): (sorry)
BOB There is a desk, there is a scroll cabinet, there is a bookshelf
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Matty is still AWOL :(

Michael (Jericho): Up to you
Michael (Jericho): Jericho has the desk
Michael (Jericho): Pray it isn't trapped

Michael (Jericho): Gods
Michael (Jericho): This is
BOB Jericho does not understand teh writing
Rothuss Carder: pokes around at random.
Michael (Jericho): Disguisting
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OOC or IC?
Ratbone Carder: singing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but uh yeah we should swipe that

Ratbone Carder: Did you know? Did you know I dropped my rations
Jericho: [SKILL] Herbalism [2] [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 6]
BOB Do you want to spend time thinking about that now?
Ratbone Carder: Did you know? I'll sing it from the bastions
Temperance: grips the staff, observing the room in case something unexpected takes place
Michael (Jericho): No, he sweeps the papers into his bag
Michael (Jericho): Someone else can read it i'm sure
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (Bob reminded us to pick up our rations again so even if you were a round behind I assume you grabbed them)
TMO (Rothuss Carder): you should have your rations back. one of the things we did before coming back up the slide was pick up dropped rations.
Ratbone Carder: I really loved the oatmeal bars, I'll miss pemmican
Amid the sheaves of parchment there is one containing the single word "Fahoorth."
Michael (Jericho): (I actually left 2 because it kept Jericho light. It boosted his stats)
Michael (Jericho): I'm sorry
Michael (Jericho): He still has ALOT
BOB There is the door to the south
Michael (Jericho): (That was Wendy right Bob?)
Michael (Jericho): (Jericho was desk rummaging)

Michael (Jericho): So Jericho did his thing.
Ratbone Carder: And yet, and yet, and yetty yet yet! WE ARE THE BEST!
Michael (Jericho): but is happy to keep rolling. But, that is probably more time whie the others can do a check
BOB and you are at the door having spent three rounds in the room so far
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Okay I guess i"m done singing LOL
Michael (Jericho): Bob, the others were also investigating. That is included in three rounds right
Michael (Jericho): ?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I sing for 3 rounds and now we are inspired
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee rolled obs, tracking, and something else for ideas on which door to get through?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): You should feel stirred about how I ditched my food for you
Carissa (Vee Barlett): her rolls are on how to get out
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and if Rothuss wants to poke around the scrolls he can or not
Carissa (Vee Barlett): for his turn
BOB The door in front of Rothuss
wyjyoon (Temperance): If observation applies to looking around the room I did that
wyjyoon (Temperance): Just for general ... unexpected encounters
Carissa (Vee Barlett): last call for TMO then we move on
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Oh TMO I just scrolled back. I assumed my rations were still in the cave where I dumped them, I doubt anyone thought to pick them up
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Rothuss is poking at random, so scrolls sounds good
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Oh I just scrolled back more where you said we got them. NVM
TMO (Rothuss Carder): you people pick ALL THE BEST TIMES to call for me. :P
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I wasn't reading while singing
Spring (Ratbone Carder): composing takes all the brain cycles
Michael (Jericho): Wendy got whatever she was looking for?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): What do you need from Rothuss for looking at scrolls, Bob?
Michael (Jericho): TMO, We looked for documents, Rothuss to look for valuables or artifacts?
Michael (Jericho): Oh, you looking at scross
wyjyoon (Temperance): ? What was I looking for? I was told to be ready with a staff in case something happened
BOB He can open the cabinet if he wants
Rothuss Carder: Wonder what's in here?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Temp and Vee were keeping an eye out for signs of someone else ocming and/or a way to exit
Michael (Jericho): I'm sorry Wendy, you rolled excellent wisdome and intelligence. I thought you were reviewing scross
The cabinet contains 3 scrolls.
Michael (Jericho): my bad
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Carissa I see you said the same. Sorry I didn't see it. I was trying to rhyme "pemmican"
Rothuss Carder: Oo.. paper. Fun.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): So Vee is standing there, tapping her foot and watch, reminding them to be fast because she does like loot, but she also likes to be alive
Rothuss Carder: Sure, why not?
Rothuss Carder: rolls them into his pack.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol no worries spring
Michael (Jericho): Bob, may Jericho do one last check for a small thing on the desk?

Michael (Jericho): In the three rounds?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I did roll them just in case since I had them : )

Michael (Jericho): (No worries :) )
BOB what is he looking for?
Michael (Jericho): A letter opener
Michael (Jericho): specifically
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes think Bob told us this door down here or he was letting the other two rummage before we focus on us

Michael (Jericho): I'm done
Vee Barlett: Y'all good?

Michael (Jericho): So, we outie
Michael (Jericho): Three roungs
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (note: he'll probably have no chance of seeing anything even if it's there)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): bookshelf was last possiblity but also possibly trapped
Ratbone Carder: Ya did good, brother, let's split
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Wait, trapped? O_O
Michael (Jericho): (Unforutnatly unless we stay longer, bookshelf is pending.)
Michael (Jericho): (Spur of moment. We open the bookshelf?)
BOB Ok so who is going through the door?
Rothuss Carder: Sure, I've always wanted to loot a fancy office. Let's go.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well it's a fancy bookshelf and it's in a cabinet so if there WAS a trap, I'd guess there but up to you two
BOB Or are you opening the bookcase
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee votes door.
Michael (Jericho): Door
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I suggest we leave it for the gods and go for the door
BOB So move to the door and

Michael (Jericho): Greed is a sure way to death
Vee Barlett: peeks through the door carefully
Michael (Jericho): but is fun
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or Rothuss okay
Temperance: grips staff tightly in preparation
This room contains three forty-gallon vats standing on low stone tripods. A slow fire burns beneath one of the great cauldrons, which is giving off wisps of greenish steam from the liquid within. Near the vats, a single six-foot pod hangs from the ceiling; unlike all the other pods found in the cavern complex, this one is a fleshy reddish pink, and has pulsing green veins running across its surface. The room also contains a long worktable, its surface covered with untidy piles of parchment notes.
The pod contains a human who is being converted into a pod man by the Shroom.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
The worktable is covered in sheaves of parchment written in a strange, spidery hand.
Michael (Jericho): Ewwwwwwwwwww
Michael (Jericho): MORE DOCUMETNS!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Temperance would be intrigued, but I say yikes
Michael (Jericho): Jericho hyperventilates when he finally gets in
wyjyoon (Temperance): To the human converted podman, not the documents
Michael (Jericho): lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so the human is like.... too far gone?
Michael (Jericho): Try anyways
Michael (Jericho): it's a fate worse then death
Michael (Jericho): please
Rothuss Carder: D'you think we can set it free? Or is it too late?
Michael (Jericho): please
Michael (Jericho): please

Jericho: almost hyperventiliating
Jericho: Can you come with us?
BOB barely nodding
Jericho: Vee?
Jericho: Hesitatntly
Jericho: Please?
Jericho: I know it's dumb
BOB and Vee's slice opens it up and it falls out
Jericho: I'll try and help him along?
Vee Barlett: You drag him. I need my hands friend then.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *free
Jericho: Vomits to the side
BOB free
Vee Barlett: I either kill it or you drag it along.
Jericho: Carefully approaches
Jericho: wary
Vee Barlett: See if it can point to a way out.
Jericho: Tries to gently lift it up
Michael (Jericho): (Waiting to see if pounces or bob wants a roll)
BOB He/it seems focused on Jericho following like a puppy
wyjyoon (Temperance): It's imprinted on him
Michael (Jericho): Oh my god this got so dark so quickly
Michael (Jericho): I'm honestly sick
Rothuss Carder: I think it likes you.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't think too hard about it until we get out of here
Jericho: Come on
Jericho: Can you point a way out?

BOB That is the vat over the fire
This vat contains a blue fluid.
Jericho: Passes a water skin hestiatnyl to see if it chas a concept of water
Carissa (Vee Barlett): isn't this a stream?
The pod contains a human who is being converted into a pod man by the Shroom.
The stuff in this vat is extremely gummy and sticky, like an adhesive stew. It tastes bad.

The tunnel opens up into a large cavern with strange contents. Four cages of a strange, fleshy substance seem to grown from the stone floor along the southern wall, and roughly in the center of the room stands a large wooden box with a funnel on top and a spout at the bottom. The box is connected to a small water wheel that turns with the river's flow.
Rothuss Carder: shrugs.
Inside this cage is female human dressed in ragged clothes.

Ratbone Carder: Oh! Triffid is Ulster
Jericho: I can look him over later
Vee Barlett: No I thought he was Tusk
Jericho: HE is ULSTER
Jericho: He HAS a NAME
Ulster: Who
Ulster: where did you come from?
Vee Barlett: *Thuskar
Jericho: Winces
Ratbone Carder: Oh Ulster is the other, gotcha
Carissa (Vee Barlett): man I'm so confused who is who lol
Michael (Jericho): (Thuskar)
Michael (Jericho): (right)
Vee Barlett: From outside and we really don't wanna be inside here anymore.
Michael (Jericho): (Honestly though, this is a less then pressing conversation)
Jericho: Nods
BOB It is on the CT
Vee Barlett: We ain't got time to waste. Do whatcha need and let's go.
Ratbone Carder: Yeah let's go everybody. who needs help moving?
Merithina: Can you get us out of here?
Jericho: We can Try
Carissa (Vee Barlett): what about the third one?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Merethina and Ulster are NPCs, the T Plant man has no name
Carissa (Vee Barlett): a dwarf, a woman, and a man
Michael (Jericho): (TY)
BOB The dwarf has vanished
Carissa (Vee Barlett): No T guy is Tusk
Michael (Jericho): (But pretty sure T-Plant was the last cage)
Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Ranger Tracking [2] [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 15]
Spring (Ratbone Carder): well heck
Vee Barlett: looking for dwarf tracks
Vee Barlett: Damnit. Dwarves know caves. Where'd he ho?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *go
BOB There is a faint set of footprints that head upstream
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *Thuskar is the plant man
Michael (Jericho): We go
Michael (Jericho): lol
Vee Barlett: Alright y'all. Back upstream.
Ratbone Carder: plainly the dwarf knows how to take care of himself, no need for us to worry
Temperance: nods in assent
Vee Barlett: If he don't wanna stick around, he can trip any traps then.
Jericho: Come on, let's get you out of here
Jericho: Helps up the battered civilians
Jericho: Puts arm over his shoulder for the most battered
Vee Barlett: You two, stay close and quiet. And don't think too hard about yer pal yet. Panic is for later.
BOB Thuskar still following worshiping Jericho
Vee Barlett: leads the way back out
Jericho: Follows, trying to be gently with his charges
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (vee would point out she was the one who technically freed him but she's a little too creeped out to be jealous probably)
Michael (Jericho): (Jealous of what?)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): being worshipped, lol
Michael (Jericho): oh brother
Michael (Jericho): her ego CANNOT possibly be that big LOL
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ....................
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no comment
Michael (Jericho): LOL
This tunnel continues upward at a fairly steep slope. Stalagmites rise from the tunnel's uneven floor, and the party will often need to duck beneath stalactite growths. In some places it is necessary to squeeze past areas where the stalagmites and stalactites have grown together into pillars.
Vee Barlett: carefully makes her way up through the pokey cave bits.
Ratbone Carder: well this is fun
Jericho: I'm sorry what?
Jericho: Define fun?
Jericho: chuckles darkly
Ratbone Carder: it's sarcasm, weener
Jericho: snickers
Jericho: sorry
Ratbone Carder: squeezes
Jericho: too many near death expereicnes
Jericho: Grins
Temperance: attempts to find her way around the uneven cave floor
Image: Cave on the path up to the church
Spring (Ratbone Carder): apropos nothing. i'm shocked i'm still getting wifi this far from the main house
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh man map change is a good thing

Michael (Jericho): I could weep
Michael (Jericho): lol
Jericho: Easy does it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): save your weeping until we are freeeeeeee
Michael (Jericho): (Follows footsteps still?)
Temperance: gets a solid grip on the staff as she traverses
Carissa (Vee Barlett): water and/or dwarf footprints yes

Ratbone Carder: singing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but she can kindof see something to the east, right? I see it on the map that it's....different?
Ratbone Carder: We're so awesome, we made new friends
Temperance: still preoccupied by odd cave fungal research and the staff to observe
Michael (Jericho): except for the dwarf asshole
Michael (Jericho): lol
Ratbone Carder: To come on the journey, where the tunnel wends
Michael (Jericho): Hopefully your singing is helping our poor civilians
BOB Yes to something different to the east
Ratbone Carder: We are brave, we are true, we have COME to help YOU!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and footprint roll shows.....?
BOB Cannot find them
Carissa (Vee Barlett): darn
BOB Best guess is they went into the stream
BOB and stayed there
Ratbone Carder: We're so awesome! And you're lucky that we came this way!
Vee Barlett: cautiously scoots a little closer to the east to see if she can see what it is
Vee Barlett: Easty is beasty....
This chamber is lit by glowing moss that hangs from the ceiling in long, frilled strands. Nine trees are growing here, their roots constrained in large earthenware pots. Each tree stands about nine feet tall, and the pots are arranged in three neat rows of three. The floor is grooved, causing channels of water to flow beneath each tree pot, obviously an irrigation system. A low, angry muttering sound fills the room.
Michael (Jericho): Otherway!
Michael (Jericho): LOL
TMO (Rothuss Carder): sorry to be so long
Vee Barlett: nods to herself and backtracks to go north.
At this point the river's flow turns a small wooden waterwheel. The wheel is attached by a couple of direction-changing gears to a large wooden box at the river's edge. At the top of the box, there is a funnel, and at the bottom there is a spout positioned to allow a container to be placed underneath. A clicking and creaking noise comes from inside the box.
Ratbone Carder: And you, and you, you can do anything! You are dtermined and headstrong
Ratbone Carder: And you, you arent deterred by anything!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Updating party pack while we have some time : )
Ratbone Carder: With friends like you, we never will go wrong!
Michael (Jericho): So, I vote that we collapse the entire cavern system SOMEHOW. I don't care if we have to "Wish" somehow, I WILL destroy this place
BOB and for Wendy who has never done this before, we are at the halfway mark for the Bonus Day
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OH OH THIS IS FAIMILAR!!!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): use the key then we climb up!
BOB Grins with Carissa
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OMG I SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL???
Ratbone Carder: strummy strum strum
TMO (Rothuss Carder): you are way better at the lyrical stuff than me, Spring!
Ratbone Carder: The light, light, light at the end of the tunnel!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, halfway mark, cool beans : )
BOB So close that Vee can almost taste it
Ratbone Carder: This box, box, box, equipped with a funnel!
BOB but
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't you DARE
Michael (Jericho): there's always
BOB no waterfall
Michael (Jericho): dont' you dare
Michael (Jericho): oh
Michael (Jericho): ...
Michael (Jericho): so...less slip?
Ratbone Carder: continues singing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that's a good thing?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): there's a ldder to go up there when the waterfall is turned off
BOB The water is flowing towards you
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and there is a keyhole to turn the water flow....
BOB There is no water fall here, just a chamber
Ratbone Carder: But where's the waterfaull! It was there for us all. In the before! It was like a door!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wasn't there a ladder? ??
BOB Yes
wyjyoon (Temperance): Just remembering I also have the key for the waterfalls if we need
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and the ladder is gone?
BOB there is no waterfall
Michael (Jericho): Sigh. We have to go back fo rthe fucking ladder in the prior room
Carissa (Vee Barlett): damnit you're goign to make use confront PLOT POINT aren't you?
BOB I will give you an intelligence check
Michael (Jericho): The ladder from before was in the prison room
Jericho: [CHECK] Intelligence (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 11] [d20 = 3]
Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Intelligence (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 0] [d20 = 12]
BOB There have been LOTS of ladders around here
Ratbone Carder: I believe, I believe, we can do this. I believe, I believe we will think this through!
Temperance: [CHECK] Intelligence (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 11] [d20 = 2]
BOB The place with the ladder and up the waterfall was in a four way intersection
Ratbone Carder: I believe, I believe, we can do this. I know, the ANSWER is INSIDE YOU!!!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I was gonna say... this didn't look like that area to me
BOB This place is vaguely familier but it is not....
Spring (Ratbone Carder): just similarly engineered
Carissa (Vee Barlett): bastard
Michael (Jericho): Maybe the water is flowing through the machines we keep seeing and twistin gthe tunnels?
Michael (Jericho): Maybe that's why we recognize some parts
Michael (Jericho): but not others?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so this is a dead end? or not?
Ratbone Carder: So there should beeeeeeee a place to put a keeeyyyyyyy?!?!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): okay maybe it is not so we keep goign
Carissa (Vee Barlett): SIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Ratbone Carder: Because maybeeeeeee ??? Some other way to get free??!
Michael (Jericho): Wait
Ropy pillars of fungus grow from ceiling to floor here, ranging from one to four feet in diameter.
Michael (Jericho): what's that?
Michael (Jericho): This isn't where we killed the baby monster was it?
Michael (Jericho): If we had continued on that path?
BOB THERE YOU GO
Michael (Jericho): Oh, then keep fukcing going, we are almos thtere!
BOB Yes where Temperance almost died
TMO (Rothuss Carder): keep going north
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh thank goodness
Ratbone Carder: dun dun DUN!!!!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we ARE almost out
Michael (Jericho): Oh, then keep fukcing going, we are almos thtere!
Michael (Jericho): STOP QUOTING ME! LOL
Temperance: glances at the spot and shakes her head, grimacing at the deja vu
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Sorry, I keep mis-tapping the trackpad
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so I did recognize the description just not where in the cave it was
Michael (Jericho): (No spring, just think it's funny :) )
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Oh it's funny, but also annoying
Michael (Jericho): So, we went in a very large circle
Spring (Ratbone Carder): If I had one of those stubby joystick things I would disable the trackpad
Michael (Jericho): The machinery in this place is impressive. It' smore then we ever saw in Drillian
Michael (Jericho): Talwin with his engnieering would have been a kid in a candy store
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well you didn't go cave diving there
There is a four-way intersection here. In the middle of the intersection a large growth of wood, apparently of natural origin, divides the flow of the river into three parts, diverting it so that a channel of water runs down the center of the other tunnels, all of which slope gradually downward from this point.
Michael (Jericho): Actually, in all honesty, Now that I know this is more like a MINE, or Underground Farm, In REAL Life, my tension is slowly going away
Michael (Jericho): Since I have a fear of caves
Vee Barlett: keeps heading north
Concealed by the waterfall's flow, there is a wooden-runged ladder, apparently formed by natural growth of roots, leading down the cliff face where the waterfall normally flows. It is easy to descend this ladder.
Temperance: continues to follow
There is another small keyhole at the bottom of the waterfall.
Spring (Ratbone Carder): That's a good thing, that the tension is going away
Vee Barlett: Brains, you got the key still?
Michael (Jericho): You have no idea
Temperance: Yes, I believe I do!
Temperance: rumamges for the key in her bag

Michael (Jericho): Spring, the fact you sing, doesn't matter what the rymes are
Michael (Jericho): just saying
wyjyoon (Temperance): I look forward to them every time
Ratbone Carder: Hee!

BOB What are you doing about the waterfall?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): is there a ladder?
Michael (Jericho): Key
Michael (Jericho): and then ladder
Ratbone Carder: He-ROES! let me sing to you about heroes!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if not we see if Rothuss can climb?
BOB The one you just came up
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooooohhh
Michael (Jericho): Oh, I apologize
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ...is Levi's rope still here?
Michael (Jericho): Grins
BOB That is the other waterfall
BOB we are working on the first one still
Ratbone Carder: sings about heroes. i'm drawing a blank
BOB You used the key to divert it and climbed up the ladder
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes....
BOB everyone is up top now
Michael (Jericho): We can restart the waterfall so that the irrigation does not cease the one area with the angry wispering
Carissa (Vee Barlett): are there two or three waterfalls?
BOB Two waterfalls
Vee Barlett: goes to reset the waterfall
BOB Thank you that was the question
Ratbone Carder: And we are mighty too! Mighty me and mighty you!
BOB Then
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh
The tunnel down into the caverns winds along a narrow and uneven path, following the river's natural course. Stalactites hang low from the ceiling, and the rock floor is treacherously slippery from the splashing water. The subterranean air has a placid, piercing chill, all too familiar to veteran adventurers. Suddenly, the river-carven tunnel slopes abruptly downward, and just ahead there is the unmistakable sound of a waterfall dashing down to rocks below.
Image: AA1_P6_Pg2
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and this is the one that had the rope/slippery ladder?
Ratbone Carder: Together we can vanquich most anything! (that is sufficiently low level)
Michael (Jericho): (LOL)
Michael (Jericho): (love the disclaimer)
BOB Yes the rope is here
Vee Barlett: climbs the rope back up
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Actually........
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait wait recon
Ratbone Carder: We are mighty! And our smiles are brighty!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): looks at the three
Vee Barlett: Can y'all climb a rope?
Rothuss Carder: chuckles.
Jericho: Worries
Temperance: fixes the staff onto her belt and shrugs
Vee Barlett: Merithina? Ulster? T?
Ratbone Carder: We outshine the sun! This time we don't have to run. Credit where it's due! To mighty me and you!'
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh well apparently yes because Bob is moving all of us, lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): otherwise she was going to tie a rope and drag them up
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ....sooooooooo.... we're free?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): FREEEEEEEDOMMMM!!!!
wyjyoon (Temperance): We walk up into darkened oblivion : )
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): frfeedommmm
Image: jungle multi-pack 002.jpg@Pathfinder RPG - Pathfinder Flip-Map - Jungle Multi-Pack
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I'm waiting for confirmation before I celebrate giving I celebrated too soon last time
Ratbone Carder: Rejoice! Rejoice! we are out out of the cave!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): YAYYYYYYYYYY!! FREEDOM!!!
Ratbone Carder: Rejoice! Rejoice! All of us were so brave!
Vee Barlett: breathes a sigh of relief but doesn't relax.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): FLEEdom!
Lirtimya: Long overdue, I was missing fresh air and sunlight
BOB I need to use the restroom as you try to organize
wyjyoon (Temperance): throws confetti
Rothuss Carder: stretches
Vee Barlett: We still need to get to the Temple.
BOB Church
Carissa (Vee Barlett): WHATEVER IT IS
Carissa (Vee Barlett): THE THING ON THE HILL WITH MISTS AND STUFF
Ratbone Carder: Rothuss, don't mess with that pimple!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): anyways
Vee Barlett: Maybe we can walk around the landslide?
Rothuss Carder: Wait, what?
Jericho: Vee
Ratbone Carder: whispers, I had to rhyme with temple
Jericho: Fuck the Temple
Rothuss Carder: Ahh
Vee Barlett: These three need the church to hepl them.
Jericho: Sigh
Ratbone Carder: Plus you shouldn't pop zits, you'll get an infection
Vee Barlett: And they need to know what's below them.
Jericho: If we could have gotten around, why did we go through the Caves?
BOB You find Parry with three dead goblins at his feet
BOB now off
Carissa (Vee Barlett): go pee already
Jericho: Parry
Jericho: Sigs in relief
Ratbone Carder: And SOME of my WORDS they need an inFLECTION!
Vee Barlett: We can't extort the church if we don't visit them.
Jericho: Snorts
Ratbone Carder: oh hey! it's the one donkey in the world who can't swim!
Temperance: Should we try looting the goblins while we wait?
Temperance: glances at the three corpses
Jericho: Vee, as always, I'd follow you to the depths of the ocean, but I need help understanding how we get there
Vee Barlett: We went into the cave to see if it led inside. It didn't but we mighta found the owners of the cloak we saw earlier. They ain't in good shape. We gotta get them to the church.
Jericho: Nods
Jericho: So...suggestions?
Jericho: We can't climb over. Not with the injured
Vee Barlett: The problem is ya let Levi have his cavin' fun and I had the stomach bouts so I couldn't tell him to stop bein' stupid.
Jericho: Can someone scout a goat path or something?
Jericho: Smiles. We all get em' Vee. We need to get you back to Sea is all
Jericho: You'll be alright in a Jiffy
Vee Barlett: We go around. Landslide is on a single side, but that don't mean there ain't a path elsewhere.
Jericho: Nods
Jericho: Can someone scout? We don't know if our charges can make it aimlessly wandering
Vee Barlett: Too bad Levi is off doin' whatever with Melange. He's better at this jungle stuff.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (waiting to roll until bob returns)
Jericho: Either way, I do admit I want to be far away from this cavern before our ahem liberations are discovered
Michael (Jericho): (yep yep)
Michael (Jericho): (no worries)
Vee Barlett: That means we got until evenin'
Vee Barlett: And judgin' by the sun, we got a few hours until then.
Michael (Jericho): I'll roll a Wisdom to see if Jericho can contemplate if another path might exist. Can't hurt
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I thought we searched for an alternate path when we got here, but sure.
Temperance: stretches a bit and checkes herself for any minor scratches or injury
Michael (Jericho): Don't get me started TMO
Michael (Jericho): It was why bob and I had a heated discussion
Michael (Jericho): VERY Heated
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I think we did but ONLY from this side of the mountain
Michael (Jericho): Can't hurt. We don't have much choice
Michael (Jericho): Otherwise, the injured are coming with us
Michael (Jericho): I'd like to know how the goblins are navigating. See if there is a goat trail or something?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'm gonna go make dinner in a couple minutes or so. Anyone need healing or anything before I go and come back?
Michael (Jericho): They must be getting around too right?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): go make food
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no necessarily
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the goblin found us at the river and might have followed the pony tracks
Michael (Jericho): BRB. GOnna grab me a drink
Michael (Jericho): and true
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes : ) I'll be back in... ten or fifteen
BOB Back
BOB First: churches etc.
Spring (Ratbone Carder): listening attentively
BOB In order Cathedral (Osterhold and others) then Temple (orange sunset is where you have worked out of) then Church (Church of the Mists like where you are going) then Shrines (like the one in your town)
BOB So You are on a mission from your Temple that Jericho owes a favor to, to go to the Church of the Mists
BOB Next is where you are now
TMO (Rothuss Carder): "It's been blocked off by a deliberate landslide, and an army of mushroom pod people are growing in the caverns underneath"
BOB you are on the path to the Church of the Mists, (you are going there because of Jericho and he will fill you in on what he was supposed to be doing)
Michael (Jericho): NO
Michael (Jericho): I'm putting my foot down Bob
BOB For what?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): its just getting supplies
Michael (Jericho): We are going because Carissa has a good poitn
Michael (Jericho): BUT
Michael (Jericho): That is bull
BOB OK so you can go back to the Temple, tell them that you are not going to do the favor you are required to do>?
Michael (Jericho): We had a very DETAILED discussion on the site, where Carissa herself said our mission was to find out what happened and why it did not arrive. WE DID THAT
Michael (Jericho): NO
Michael (Jericho): YOU said that
Michael (Jericho): I went from good time to FURIOUS
Michael (Jericho): WHICH IS IT PEOPLE

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Thank you :)
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Yeah after I put the food in the oven I'm back here for another hour from now
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): So, I'm here a while
Ratbone Carder: yay!
Spring (Ratbone Carder): ooc LOL
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wooo!
BOB The group was walking up the path towards the Church of the Mists when you encountered a landslide. Rothuss went to explore the landslide and found that a cave had been opened up and there was some scraps of clothing that looked like clothing from a priest. You went in to explore and see what you could find.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooooops we didn't find a priest but go on
BOB You explored some got beaten up badly and retreated to fishing hut for the day and night to recover. Then you came back to the caves to explore some more. Leading to the going much much deeper into the caves, etc. and you finally almost 7 hours hours later you make it up out of the caves again.
BOB You still have your original mission of go to the Church of the Mists and find out why the supplies have not arrived at the Temple
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and bring the supplies back before the end of the month
Carissa (Vee Barlett): whatever said supplies is
BOB This is the third day so you still have plenty of time
BOB it just feels like forever
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes I reread chat after posting that OOC and how it was worded, but never reposted on OOC because we started focusing on getting out
Carissa (Vee Barlett): figured we'd cross the Mist bridge we went got out and here we are
BOB Exactly
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and we have another reason to visit them anyways so might as well finish it off
Vee Barlett: Merithina? Are you from these parts? We're tryin' to get up to that church but there's a landslide.
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I think I need to take an hour to cleanse the mental palatte. be back in a while. going to kick back and watch some shows and relax
Vee Barlett: You all need a healer and we're all tapped out.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): waves
Spring (Ratbone Carder): cya later on TMO
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Rothuss DID get us in this mess to start so....
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ;)
TMO (Rothuss Carder): you're welcome
'TMO' disconnected
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol go take a break
Merithina: I was traveling from the Church of the Mists south to sell our goods
Merithina: We came down from the mountains, I think it was ... days? a week? how long were we down there?
Vee Barlett: Dunno as we've only been up this way for maybe three?
Vee Barlett: Temple sent us to see what happened.
Ratbone Carder: Now we know!
Merithina: Our caravan was waylaid by goblins and while we were fighting them these creatures threw bags of gas at us
Merithina: and I woke up in that cage
Ratbone Carder: Ew!
Vee Barlett: takes a mental note about "bags of gas".
Merithina: I watched them take off three of our guards,
Vee Barlett: Was it near evenin'?
Merithina: Thuskar was not in the group, I had thought he escaped
Vee Barlett: grimances but says nothing
Merithina: Looks sadly at him as he curls up at Jericho's feet
Merithina: It was in the morning
Merithina: we wanted an early start
Vee Barlett: Before daybreak?
Merithina: try to make it to the south hills by nightfall
Merithina: Just about day break
Vee Barlett: We got warnin' to not be here in the evenin' so trying to see how long we got to we gotta skeddadle.
Merithina: we were only a mile or two from the Church
Merithina: Who warned you?
Vee Barlett: Some old man? Er, what was his name...
Vee Barlett: He was pickin' mushrooms near here...
Merithina: I have not heard of such a thing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): gotta find the chat because it was when I was in CA
wyjyoon (Temperance): back with food : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Good! Do you remember who the guy was who warned us about the mushroom dude?
Merithina: My family is from the eastern district of Osterhold
Merithina: I was making the mountain circle
wyjyoon (Temperance): Um Orris? Something with an O
Vee Barlett: Oh! What's yer last name?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I think?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't quite remember it well
Merithina: Klopnorn
Carissa (Vee Barlett): temp can say that IC
Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 14) [SUCCESS by 1] [d20 = 13]
Temperance: I believe his name might've been akin to Orris or something with an O, but I don't quite recall...
Vee Barlett: tries to think if she knows her family
Vee Barlett: Hmm, not sure yer name is ringin' a bell but it's a big city.
Temperance: The old man picking mushrooms that we spoke to, I mean.
BOB No she does not recognize it, but would be unlikely. Osterhold is the center part, you are in the Western district, she said she is from the eastern district
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh well that helps to know, lol
User has gone AFK. (JtomTMO)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not sure if eastern district means anything either but that's fine
Image: Borinquen
Vee Barlett: Well that's all good an' interesting, don't mind hearin' more, but we still gotta get up to the church. You know any back paths that way?
BOB That is the Eastern District
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well I do not know which chat it was so Orris it'll have to be
Carissa (Vee Barlett): i see a circle on a map
Carissa (Vee Barlett): a LARGE circle
BOB yes and that city there is Oserhold
wyjyoon (Temperance): Yeah I don't remember exactly what the name was
wyjyoon (Temperance): I might be far off, ngl
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I am smiling and nodding, lol
BOB and the roads over to the west is where you are
Merithina: I have only ever traveled up and down the roads, this road was never like this before
'Carissa' disconnected
'Carissa' connected
Ratbone Carder: frowns
Lirtimya: Well, if think of one, please, say something
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so it freaked out after you tried to show me map stuff so anything after that I missed but all good
Merithina: If we go north over this path
Vee Barlett: Gets us to the church?
Merithina: I have only ever traveled up and down the roads, this road was never like this before
Merithina: If we go north over this path
Merithina: Well, if think of one, please, say something
Merithina: Gets us to the church?
BOB Sorry
BOB Let me try that again
BOB yes and that city there is Oserhold
Merithina: I have only ever traveled up and down the roads, this road was never like this before
BOB Well, if think of one, please, say something (from Lirt)
Merithina: If we go north over this path
BOB Gets us to the church? (from Vee)
BOB and that is Carissa all caught up on the conversation
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (so north over the path is her guess to get us to the church?)
BOB Yes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): is that what Lirt was asking?
BOB Yes
Vee Barlett: Okay then. Let's not waste daylight. Let's try north.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Northy is worthy
Temperance: nods in assent.
Spring (Ratbone Carder): haha
Temperance: It wouldn't hurt to try.
Lirtimya: Have you ever seen a map of this area?
BOB And we get back to the start of the argument
BOB The landslide is blocking the road
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OH I thought she was showing us a different potential path
BOB No THIS path
BOB She was on this path farther north when she was captured
BOB but there was no landslide she was aware of
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oooh I still missed some convo then
Spring (Ratbone Carder): i think the convo missed us
Carissa (Vee Barlett): poor story chat person is going to get confused here, lol
BOB and she is unsure what day it is so cannot tell you when it happened
Vee Barlett: How big is this mountain? You think we can go around the back?
BOB She said, hours, days, week?
Merithina: I have only travelled the road ways
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Does she know the date she left? because we know the current date and we could math
Merithina: I imagine there are other paths
Vee Barlett: And it was only ever one road in?
Merithina: There are other roads, I travel them regularly
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): "Have you ever seen a map of this area?" asked this earlier
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I have a plan
Vee Barlett: Any chance ya got a map or somethin'? My matey here is good with maps to find another way in.
Merithina: She has seen a map before
Merithina: I do ot have anything left, I lost everything
Vee Barlett: But ya seen one? She's smart, she might be able to work with yer knowledge.
Vee Barlett: Right, Lirt?
Merithina: all of my friends, my entire caravan except for Ulster an Thuskar
Merithina: starts crying
Ratbone Carder: sympathy face
Vee Barlett: Merithina, I know it ain't easy, but ya gotta not think about that yet. We ain't outta trouble.
Lirtimya: If I drew a basic map of where we are, do you think you would be able to extend it off of memory? It doesn't have to be good, but it would be nice to have something basic, even if only straight lines, than nothing
Merithina: I can try
Lirtimya: will attempt to draw a basic map of our current area
Lirtimya: [SKILL] Cartography [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 14) [FAILURE by 6] [d20 = 20]
Vee Barlett: nods to Ratbone to do any comforting things helpful
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ouchhhh
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oof
Temperance: offers Merithina a stray piece of cloth that may serve as a kerchief
Merithina: This does not look like anything I recognize
Vee Barlett: Er, yer sure that's right Lirt? It has been a long day.
Ratbone Carder: all this stuff in my backpack and i have neither a blanket nor a cloak. that's some BS, i need to repack
Lirtimya: I have no idea, I'm tired and this isn't my strongest point, sorry Vee, maybe after I rest I can get a better map drawn
Vee Barlett: It's all good, matey. Worth a try.
Ratbone Carder: Or
Ratbone Carder: Well, you know this road that we are on, right? Could you guide us to another path to the Church?
Ratbone Carder: And we'll escort and guard you all the way there
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so how bad IS this landslide? Can parry climb it?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I have to go do some more cooking, I'll be back
User has gone AFK. (JtomTMO)
wyjyoon (Temperance): I think last time it said it was going to be pretty difficult, but not sure
Merithina: It was Penmanse (24 - 12 - 586) when we were taken
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well it's had a day to settle down plus wheever it happened....
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or again we move around the mountain and hope to find another path
wyjyoon (Temperance): Kind of a stretch but the fungal staff wouldn't be any help, right?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but make sure we're more than 2 miles away at night if we do not succeed
BOB you can explore and try to go over the landslide
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wouldn't think so
wyjyoon (Temperance): Fair enough
Spring (Ratbone Carder): So she doesn't know a path from here to the church then
wyjyoon (Temperance): Try to go over the landslide then?
BOB Or you can try to go around but there are no paths in this area that you know of, and the roadways she is talking about will take you a week or two
'Lemon' connected
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Ah that's the info
Lemon (Levi Reed): Hello again
wyjyoon (Temperance): Hey Lemon : )
BOB Hello
Spring (Ratbone Carder): hi Lemon!
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Hope the nap hit the spot
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we try to go over I guess yes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hi lemon we're free
Spring (Ratbone Carder): It's like go over or go back and say we failed
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and found a mutant plant dude and some people
Lemon (Levi Reed): It was very needed, yes
Spring (Ratbone Carder): contrary to the saying, failure IS an option
wyjyoon (Temperance): The mutant plant dude really likes Jericho and follows it around
wyjyoon (Temperance): *follows him around
Lemon (Levi Reed): And Parry is here, yay!
Lemon (Levi Reed): Did we get my rope back?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): there had been a dwarf prisoner but he took the heck off as soon as he was freed
Spring (Ratbone Carder): the humans came along with us though
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes to your rope
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yay! And yay to freeing prisoners I guess.
Lemon (Levi Reed): So now what?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): failure was an optin but after that... disagreement we kind of need to get to the church
Spring (Ratbone Carder): all the alternate routes to the church will take weeks and weeks
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we try to go over the landslide first
Spring (Ratbone Carder): that
Spring (Ratbone Carder): we're not taking any wagons, so maybe we can do it
Lemon (Levi Reed): Were these people the ones trapped in the pods?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yup
BOB being turned into pod people
Carissa (Vee Barlett): not the two you are thinking of
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we try to get over lsndslide with dex checks and rope?

Vee Barlett: tries to forage a path and help set ropes for others to grab
Ratbone Carder: [SKILL] Rope Use [MOD:DEX] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 1] [d20 = 14]

BOB Is Levi leaving Ratbone alone with the new people?
wyjyoon (Temperance): But but he hates monkeys
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's fineeee someone else will log back in soon right?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and Parry will protect them
Lemon (Levi Reed): What, why shouldn't I?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Just responding to Vee saying he monkey-climbed past everyone : )
BOB Strange women locked up in cages do not make a good government
wyjyoon (Temperance): I can stay behind if you guys need to?
wyjyoon (Temperance): But my HP's pretty low, so if they try to attack I don't know how it'll turn out
wyjyoon (Temperance): They don't seem hostile but...
BOB I am just pointing out you have three people there who you met a hour or so ago who are tramatised,
BOB and you want to leave them with Ratbone while you go off to explore
Lemon (Levi Reed): Have we talked to them?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
Lemon (Levi Reed): Why isn't ratbone coming with us?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee is not empatetic. Rabone is
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we are scouting first
Carissa (Vee Barlett): andsomeone eneds to stay with the former prisoners
wyjyoon (Temperance): Should we let them know we're scouting and coming back?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you all decide who wants to go where
Lemon (Levi Reed): We freed them, isn't that enough?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee and Lirt are up top
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ......no???
Lemon (Levi Reed): I mean, I feel like I have good skills for scouting? But I can stay
Spring (Ratbone Carder): We should escort them to safety if possible
Spring (Ratbone Carder): or they will just get recaptured again
Vee Barlett: One of their friends is a mutant, they lost all their belongings, they were kept in weird pods things for a long time. They shouldn't be left alone.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc
Lemon (Levi Reed): idiots
Carissa (Vee Barlett): And yes I would have agreed Lemon BUT you came like seconds after that deicison
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if you logged on a minute or two before I would have had Levi scout
Lemon (Levi Reed): Well ok then
Levi Reed: Well, I'll stay here and keep our new friends company
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but I got good rolls so I'm keeping thrm
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 3] [d20 = 16]
Levi Reed: Hello new friends!
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I got a back to back nat 20 and nat 1 lol
Ulster: GRunts
Spring (Ratbone Carder): LOL
wyjyoon (Temperance): I guess I'll go with Vee and Lirt? Unless you need me for the botany skill
Levi Reed: offers ulster some rations
Carissa (Vee Barlett): up to you
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes, Vee and Lirt then
Ulster: Takes them cautiously, sniffs them
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we are just trying to find a way over the landslide and make a path up, hopefully we aren't going far
Levi Reed: I'm Levi, what's your name?
BOB So Vee and Lirt go head up over the rocks
wyjyoon (Temperance): *I'm going with them
BOB After about 40 minutes you make it to the top
wyjyoon (Temperance): Didn't think I should waste a dex and obs roll
BOB Temp is off to the eastern flank looking
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Ratbone staying with Levi and refugees
BOB you all three make it up and spot the roadway heading upwards into the hills
BOB and just about out of eyesight is what looks to be a pile of wagons
Lemon (Levi Reed): Heyyyy, we did it
BOB You do not know a path yet to get Parry or anyone not able to climb easily up and over yet
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (isn't that why we brought rope?)
BOB but you know you four can make it, and you are pretty sure most of your group can too
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah but we found the wagons!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if we leave parry again, sorry man but we do
BOB You can spend some more time scouting for a better path for the mule and the recovered prisoners
Carissa (Vee Barlett): as long as we can all make it up and help the ones who need it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok
BOB and while that happens Rathbone and Levi can talk with them to learn more
Temperance: looking around the eastern flank to see if there are any viable paths
Levi Reed: offers the other human some rations
BOB Levi watches Ulster sniffing the rations suspiciously
Levi Reed: You guys feeling ok?
Levi Reed: Anything we can do to help?
Levi Reed: Ratbone here sings really nicely
Levi Reed: What are your names?
Ratbone Carder: strummy strum strum
BOB (when you read the chat lemon you will see the place where people were turned into podmen has large vats of liquid)
Ulster: Takes a small bite
HMMMM
GREEEEwwnnn
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Gotta go afk again, more cooking
Ulster: Growling and eating quickly
Ratbone Carder: (signing) Ulster here, he's a friend. He's a name we know
Merithina: Takes food from Levi
Merithina: Thank you
Merithina: shivering
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ulster is human.... right??
Levi Reed: cautiously offers food to plant man
BOB yes
Levi Reed: Not sure if this will still taste good to you but...
Ratbone Carder: And here is Merithina, i hope our friendship grows
BOB Thuskar is the person who was being turned into a plant
Levi Reed: Are you cold, Merithina?
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Yes, Ulster is
Merithina: I am
Merithina: shaking
Merithina: I am not cold I think
Ratbone Carder: Thuskar is the person who was being turned into a plant.
Merithina: I just
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we habe a cloak from the stirge nesr
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (sorry eatin chips)
Lemon (Levi Reed): we what a what
Merithina: Taking deep breaths
wyjyoon (Temperance): we have a cloak from the loot from that cliff
Carissa (Vee Barlett): free cloak we found at the stirge nest
Levi Reed: takes a blanket from Parry's pack and offers to Merithina
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
Ratbone Carder: Levi here is one of us, I can't think of a rhyme for plant
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it is general party pack so you can give it to her too or the blanket works
Merithina: Clutches it and grabs Levi's hand
Merithina: Thank you
Levi Reed: Ant?
Levi Reed: Anything else I can do to make you guys more comfortable, for now?
Ratbone Carder: I didn't see how to fit Ant, Grant, Slant, or Scant into the song
Levi Reed: offers them all his water thing
Merithina: I am worried about Thuskar
Merithina: Will he recover?
Merithina: Do you think the priests can heal him?
Levi Reed: I don't know. Hopefully the church will be able to help
Ratbone Carder: Oh woe woe, we don't know, we don't know
Levi Reed: looks at Thuskar
Levi Reed: [SKILL] Botany [MOD:WIS] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 9] [d20 = 4]
Ratbone Carder: But he seems happy?
Ratbone Carder: I mean, it's a thankfully thing he's not in terrible pain or something
Ratbone Carder: But Levi is right, we will have to consult some experts
BOB Thuskar looks like he was being consumed by some fungus to be changed transformed into something else
Levi Reed: I wish I could offer you more comfort, but I don't want to give false hope. I honestly don't know
Temperance: continues looking around for pathways
wyjyoon (Temperance): (since I'm not sure if I should be doing anything else)
Ratbone Carder: So, about Ulster - is the not talking thing new? Or usual?
Merithina: I think he is just in shock
Ratbone Carder: nods
Merithina: That .... thing...... told us he was next
Ratbone Carder: Hard not to be, after such an ordeal
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it speaks common?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, good though
Levi Reed: It spoke to you?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): FYI to lemon, we never saw The Shroom
Merithina: It hissed, pointed and used some gutteral language
Levi Reed: Ahhh
Levi Reed: Creepy
Merithina: It was like a barking sound
Ratbone Carder: Nods
Levi Reed: I'm so sorry you had to go through that
Levi Reed: What led you down into the caves, if you don't mind my asking?
Merithina: We were taking my caravan down from the mountains, we stopped at the Church of the Mists for a couple of days
Ratbone Carder: No, she told us theyw ere grabbed
Merithina: then we were heading south as fast as we could and we were attacked in the early morning
Merithina: after we left there
Levi Reed: Shhh, let her talk. My stomach was upset
Ratbone Carder: Fair
Merithina: I think it has been a while
BOB The date she gave you earlier was about a month ago
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Okay, 15 minutes then I'll need to go for dinner
Levi Reed: Yeah some guy told us that creepy plant men come out at night here. Guessing they found you just as it was time for bed. I'm so sorry, how awful
wyjyoon (Temperance): I remember you saying Penmanse
BOB Ok jumpting to the mountaineers before JTom leaves
BOB Lirt and Vee scout around and find a hollow of rocks
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (and Temp)
Lemon (Levi Reed): Afk for a drink and snack while that happens
Levi Reed: Yeah some guy told us that creepy plant men come out at night here. Guessing they found you just as it was time for bed. I'm so sorry, how awful
Lemon (Levi Reed): oops
User has gone AFK. (Lemon)
BOB They think if you fill that in it might make it easier to get down
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's fine lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): BOB said Temp went towards the eastern flank, wherever that means
BOB Temp on the outer edge finds a higher cleaner path but narrow and will be hard for weaker or less dexterious people
Carissa (Vee Barlett): missed that sorry
BOB Overall that took about another half hour to quickly scout it out

The time is 1:41 PM
Carissa (Vee Barlett): making sure he knew she was scouting too
wyjyoon (Temperance): Thanks Vee : ) Appreciate you watching out for me
BOB It will take you another half hour to get back down to your campsite
Carissa (Vee Barlett): anytime
Carissa (Vee Barlett): how long to fill that path?
Temperance: mentally notes the state of the found path
BOB hard to tell, Levi would know best but you think you can manage it in a couple of hours
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the real question is: did we find a way to get everyone up here and can we make it to the church before nightfall?
BOB Yes to getting everyone up and around by one of the two paths
BOB getting to the church you are unsure
wyjyoon (Temperance): so it's either filling a path or taking the narrow / slightly unsafer path
BOB You think you are an hour or so from the church of the mists
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's 2 PM and gets dark at 6? 8?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we could but it will be tight I tihnk
BOB about 7 or so this high up
Carissa (Vee Barlett): with extra hands and help and good rolls
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee is all about pushing through so she would want to do that
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't mind doing that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): start bringing them up, maybe one or two stay to start filling that path, and then go frm there
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so Temp can go down, get them up, and Lirt and Vee fill path?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, I guess they don't need rope to get up?
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't mind doing that then
Carissa (Vee Barlett): dunno if you got up because of dex check or rope...
wyjyoon (Temperance): Temp has low strength so she won't be able to pull anyone up
wyjyoon (Temperance): Dex check : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Spring does Ratbone have rope use?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I got up to rope
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Yes to rope use
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OR Lirt and Temp can fill the path and Vee will go down
'Shislif' connected
Carissa (Vee Barlett): just want to get ahead start on that
Image: jungle multi-pack 002.jpg@Pathfinder RPG - Pathfinder Flip-Map - Jungle Multi-Pack
wyjyoon (Temperance): Is Temperance within line of sight of Vee and Lirt? Don't know what BOB meant by her being at the eastern flank
wyjyoon (Temperance): If that's the case Temp and Lirt can get started
BOB Temp can see Vee and Lirt they are farther to her west, down slope
BOB Temp is higher up on the mountain side
Shislif: hey i'm back
Temperance: makes her way down to Vee and Lirt, carefully and slowly
Shislif: with coffee
Spring (Ratbone Carder): mmmm coffeeeeee
Lemon (Levi Reed): Great timing!
Lemon (Levi Reed): Seems like we will need you to either hoist people up, and/or fill in the path
Temperance: How is it looking over here?
Lemon (Levi Reed): strong man things
Shislif (MeLange): oke dokey
Carissa (Vee Barlett): welcome back!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Welcome back Sharif : )
Vee Barlett: Well, if we fill this in here, it'll make the path easier. You find anything?
Shislif (MeLange): thanks :)
Temperance: I found a cleaner path from the looks of it, but it looks rather narrow and uneven. It may be tricky for people to navigate through
Temperance: I don't mind helping you to fill that path as much as I can.
Temperance: Perhaps it will be safer to traverse than the other path I encountered.
MeLange: anything I can do?
Vee Barlett: Hmm, then yeah, you and Lirt fill this in and I'll go get the others up here. Thinkin' we got about another hour walk from here and wanna try to do it while the sun is up.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (Melange is not there yet)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, you missed the SUPERSHANK band name
wyjyoon (Temperance): Supershank is so catchy
Shislif (MeLange): i like it
Levi Reed: Anything salvagable?
Levi Reed: If not, let's keep going before it gets dark
BOB You would have to climb down
Rothuss Carder: looks for any bodies.
Temperance: It looks like there's at least a dozen...
BOB Could be
Spring (Ratbone Carder): Supershank sounds like a hair band
Vee Barlett: We can look later.
Levi Reed: Yeah
Vee Barlett: Saw them earlier, but our goal is safety.
Vee Barlett: And that's at the church.
Temperance: Getting to somewhere safer before nightfall would be nice, yes
Levi Reed: Anything important in your wagons, new friends? We can maybe try to take a look tomorrow
Merithina: All of our trade goods
Levi Reed: What were you transporting?
Vee Barlett: Any chance some of it was a shipment to the Temple of Orange Sunsets?
Levi Reed: talking and walking at the same time
Merithina: We had starfish and pearls, and glass bottles, silks and some wooden furniture
Shislif (MeLange): very west wing
Rothuss Carder: walking along and looking for suspicious mushrooms.
Merithina: I left before that shipment was ready
Levi Reed: Sounds nice... but not much of that was likely to make it in that fall...
Vee Barlett: Well that's a later problem, then.
Merithina: They were getting bales of flowers together to ship down the mountain
Vee Barlett: Bales of flowers...?
Merithina: Are we going to make it?
Rothuss Carder: Flowers? *Bales*?
Merithina: Are we really going to be safe?
Vee Barlett: If we keep walkin' a good pace, yeah. We'll get to the church.
The time is 6:16 PM
Vee Barlett: Long as they still standin'.... and if no, as long as we can find a room to barracade then yeah.
Merithina: Do you think something happened to the church!
Levi Reed: We will do everything we can to make sure you are safe
Levi Reed: Gods, I hope not
Vee Barlett: I would hope not or we wouldn't be goin' that way.
Temperance: frowns in concern at the thought
Vee Barlett: Ain't the Mists about fortune tellin' or something? They'd know if they were in trouble. I'd hope...
Levi Reed: Anyway, we're about to find out
The time is 7:09 PM
Allynna Starnar: THUNK THUNK THUNK
Allynna Starnar: Three arrows stab into the ground in front of you
Allynna Starnar: Halt who goes there
Levi Reed: Excuse you, we're here to help and be helped!
Ratbone Carder: halts
Vee Barlett: Emassaries from the Temple of Orange Sunsets.
Temperance: pauses momentarily
Vee Barlett: Or... messangers? I ain't sure anymore. Tired travellers from the temple?
Rothuss Carder: Aren't you supposed to warn before shooting? What if you'd missed?
Allynna Starnar: How do I know you are from the Temple?
Allynna Starnar: If I missed you would not be talking
Rothuss Carder: No, I'd be yelling in pain.
SNORTS
Allynna Starnar: I will give you that one
Rothuss Carder: We have a priest who canNOT tell a lie, right here!
Vee Barlett: Well the priest over there with his, er, buddy musta have his symbol on him.
Rothuss Carder: pushes Jericho forward.
BOB Temperance is a priestess too
Vee Barlett: Hilde sent us. And Pascal (or whatever his name is too tired to remember now). He wants his supplies 'case he ain't got it yet.
Rothuss Carder: Yeah, but she knows how to lie.
Vee Barlett: Temperance here is a church-type too, although I ain't sure the Temple is her home church.
Rothuss Carder: Jericho has absolutely zero poker face
Levi Reed: Knows how, but she doesn't seem to do it much
Levi Reed: Or maybe she's just REALLY good at it
Vee Barlett: Y'all hush.
Temperance: raises an eyebrow and shrugs
Allynna Starnar: Walk forward and let me see you do something
Vee Barlett: too tired to deal with all this
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (temperance?)
Allynna Starnar: We have had a lot of strange things happening
Temperance: [SKILL] Bureaucracy (2) [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 6] [d20 = 19]
Levi Reed: Something like what?
Shislif (MeLange): are we still in jungle image?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Just rolled it just in case
Vee Barlett: Yeah. Ya got monsters livin' in them caves.
Levi Reed: MeL here is good at looking sexy wihtout his shirt
Vee Barlett: These three behind us were in there, we escaped with them.
BOB Yes that was a great idea, just failed in the execution
Levi Reed: We can have him do an entertaining dance for ya
Ratbone Carder: That's my deparment!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Sad but worth a try
Ratbone Carder: I am the entertaining dancer!
Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Charisma (vs. Target 10) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 5]

Vee Barlett: does her best to look like the innocent, warn travellers they are.
Rothuss Carder: Meat with feelings?
Levi Reed: I know, baby
wyjyoon (Temperance): (Should we show them the documents we have or are we keeping that to ourselves for now?
Allynna Starnar: One of you come forward
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Allynna Starnar: No weapons
Vee Barlett: Fine.
Rothuss Carder: I'll go if you want. She sounds fun
Vee Barlett: steps forward before glaring at Rothuss
Ratbone Carder: Do we not have a letter or something about our mission?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Not a chance Vee can rid herself of all her weapons that quickly
Lemon (Levi Reed): Bob, tick off another half hour on the clock please :P
Allynna Starnar: Watching
Allynna Starnar: (LOL)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): rude
Vee Barlett: grumbles and carefully sets her weapons down.
Levi Reed: ALL OF THEM, Vee
Vee Barlett: pulls out her dagger, a knife, another knife, another knife, another knife....
Vee Barlett: Damn, maybe one of y'all should have done this.
Rothuss Carder: Can't say we didn't offer.
Temperance: I don't remember them giving me anything. Jericho might have a letter?
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Vee Barlett: You offered to flirt.
Rothuss Carder: sits on a rock outcropping.
Vee Barlett: Ain't the same.
Vee Barlett: sets final weapon on the ground and takes a single step foward.
Allynna Starnar: Points at the trident
Levi Reed: Temperance is a priest, wouldn't it make more sense for her to go?
Vee Barlett: rolls eyes and sets it down
wyjyoon (Temperance): (Does holy water prove that I'm a priest)
Vee Barlett: grumbles more
Carissa (Vee Barlett): your symbol does
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh, would it matter that I don't know which church she's from
Vee Barlett: I ain't stoppin' any of ya from comin' up here.
Vee Barlett: Yer all just thinkin' too hard and not doin'
Allynna Starnar: I am
Levi Reed: The one in the boot too, Vee
Rothuss Carder: I'm all comfy now. I couldn't possibly deprive you.
Vee Barlett: Gave that one to Lirt.
Allynna Starnar: Walks up to Vee and places a hand on her forehead
Ratbone Carder: the heck?!
Vee Barlett: stabbing hand twitches but others doesn't react
Allynna Starnar: Fair enough
Levi Reed: Don't worry, normal priest stuff
Ratbone Carder: oh well then
Rothuss Carder: Yep, good idea to take all the weapons. She'd have shanked your for sure for just walking up and touching her.
Allynna Starnar: Not sure who you are, but you are not any shape changer
Vee Barlett: Can I put my weapon back on? I feel naked.
Allynna Starnar: Nods, you may
Rothuss Carder: That's because your clothes are falling off without all those weapons to hold them up.
Allynna Starnar: Chupacabra has been haunting the hills
Ratbone Carder: do you gotta feel all our heads?
Levi Reed: Did you keep your daggers on when you were with Ruffous?
Vee Barlett: And darn, was hoping you would tell me I'm really part mermaid or something but guess it's better not to be surprised.
Allynna Starnar: Cannot be to careful
Rothuss Carder: Disagree.
Vee Barlett: OH! We ran into that thing's goblins earlier. Killed them, but didn't find the Chupacabra.
Levi Reed: Oh man, Chupacabra!
Vee Barlett: starts putting her weapons back in place
Shislif (MeLange): feels so long ago
Temperance: furrows her eyebrows in concern
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol yup
Rothuss Carder: [TOWER] [SKILL] Local History [MOD:CHA] (vs. Target 16) [FAILURE by 2] [d20 = 18]

Allynna Starnar: Where are your wagons? your goods?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (roll for Chupacabra lore)
Vee Barlett: Only got the mule.
Vee Barlett: You know there's a landslide on the road?
BOB Rothuss does not remember anything new
Levi Reed: Our friends here had a wagon but it got smashed
Ratbone Carder: These folks had wagons and goods but they were ambushed and kidnapped
Allynna Starnar: Yes we found that yesterday
Allynna Starnar: along with three deer with their heads cut off
Rothuss Carder: So who set the landslide, if it wasn't you?
Vee Barlett: What's yer name anyways? Since we're on friendlier terms now?
Allynna Starnar: I am Allynna, I am the assistant guardian of the Church
Vee Barlett: Could be goblins, could be the weird mushroom man thing, who knows.
Vee Barlett: nods
Allynna Starnar: Mushroom thing?
Vee Barlett: Nice meeting ya if it means a place to rest. I'm Vee.
Rothuss Carder: There was a cloak piece caught in it, remember?
Vee Barlett: Yeah, we can talk about that. Kinda why we came up here 'cause y'all need to know what's goin' down.
Ratbone Carder: Yeah there's a mushroom man turning people into mushroom people and it's gross
Allynna Starnar: I think you should all come into the courtyard
Levi Reed: Yeah, a traveler told us a tale about some fungus people, and we have living proof with us here for you... this one is friendly, but they're building an army down there
Temperance: nods as she recalls the cloak piece
Vee Barlett: Lead the way.
Temperance: The traveler's name I believe is Orrian Terrawater
BOB She brings the group inside the gatehouse
Vee Barlett: And, er, we might need some, uh, healers for these three with us. Especially, er, T.
BOB you are surprised you have not seen a gatehouse before at a church
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we were told they are a weird church tho
Levi Reed: Yeah, he was human until he got snatched by the monsters...
Levi Reed: We're hoping you might have something to help
Spring (Ratbone Carder): and we know this is dangerous territory
Rothuss Carder: a Fort-church? Fortchurch? Furtch?
Temperance: Not many churches have these gathouses...
MeLange: hey nice gatehouse
Temperance: mumbles to herself
Vee Barlett: Levi don't jump to the story twist until we get inside and start at the beginnin'
BOB Then when you enter you see a large open courtyard where there are at least a dozen wagons parked, with two small fires for people who are on watch duty
Levi Reed: Ok, but this guy needs help if they have it
Levi Reed: Then we can tell the story
BOB and then on the other side of the courtyard is a tall three story church
Vee Barlett: Agree and warnin' them about his apperance but we can tell the healers what happened to him.
BOB Looking out into the growing darkness there you can see the bottom floor is open with water rushing over it
MeLange: wow three stories, this church must have a lot of attendees
Vee Barlett: Maybe I don't need a drink. Maybe I need to just soak in the water for a few years.
Lemon (Levi Reed): This church better not be sending poisionous water down or something
Spring (Ratbone Carder): they've got a splash pad?
Shislif (MeLange): glowing darkness?
Shislif (MeLange): oh growing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sunsegt

Levi Reed: First things first... any chance you can help these prisoners we found? We can wait, them, I'm not sure about
Vee Barlett: waves to the former prisoners
Vee Barlett: Will need, er, extra healin' from their troubles.
Aien Mountainbane: Who needs healing immediately?
Vee Barlett: points to T
Levi Reed: Mostly this one, I think...
Spring (Ratbone Carder): everybody points to T man
Vee Barlett: Will need, er, extra healin' from their troubles.
Vee Barlett: I ain't sure you can reverse what was done to him, but he seems most in need.
Levi Reed: also points to T

Temperance: contemplates whether the documents they found in the cave will be useful
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (probably yes)
Lemon (Levi Reed): I may have to take a break to walk the dogs. I asked the husband to, but got no reply
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (but once we sit down and have privacy)
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes : )
Lemon (Levi Reed): Did we get any scrolls?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes three I think
TMO (Rothuss Carder): paranoid TMO thinks we should read them first before turning them over, but that's just me. I gotta know everything.
Lemon (Levi Reed): nice
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I didn't say we were turning them over
wyjyoon (Temperance): I was feeling the same paranoia
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I said we were showing them

Vee Barlett: Landslide slowed us down, too.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): LOL
Carissa (Vee Barlett): also that
Aien Mountainbane: Tell me why you came here from the Temple of Orange Sunsets?
Ratbone Carder: "so no shit, there we were!"
Ratbone Carder: ooc

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Aien Mountainbane: But why you? You are a prirate
Rothuss Carder: He's perceptive
Levi Reed: Nah, her family business is EXTREMELY upstanding
Temperance: She was accompanying us on our journey
Vee Barlett: First off, rude. You don't accuse people of things.
Ratbone Carder: blink blink
Vee Barlett: And second of, no. They asked Jericho.
Vee Barlett: And he is, well, squishy, so he asked his friends to help.
Temperance: To help with any challenges that might be in the way
Aien Mountainbane: So they did not get any of our messages
Vee Barlett: Not unless they arrived in our three days of travel.
Levi Reed: If they did, they didn't tell us that
Aien Mountainbane: Very well
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I have returned yet again
Shislif (MeLange): brb
Carissa (Vee Barlett): welcome back again!
Aien Mountainbane: Tell me the most interesting thing that happened to you on your trip here, points to Levi
User has gone AFK. (Shislif)
Rothuss Carder: I'm sure they wouldn't have not told us everything we needed to know.
Lemon (Levi Reed): and the villagers rejoiced!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Welcome back : )
Vee Barlett: kicks back her feet and looks for her drink to take a swig
Levi Reed: Um... we found an army of mushroom people being grown
TMO (Rothuss Carder): How were the ribs?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): The best I've ever had
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Well done, Chef Boy!
Aien Mountainbane: frowns, Point to Rothuss, What was the hardest thing you fought?
Rothuss Carder: Hmmm...
Spring (Ratbone Carder): jealous. i want great ribs
Lemon (Levi Reed): the piranah
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Apparently one of the best meals I've cooked too, so I'm keeping that recipe
Lemon (Levi Reed): that took a bite of your toe
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the inability to not flirt
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
Lemon (Levi Reed): But also, sounds like Mini is cooking for us at the next RL meetup
Spring (Ratbone Carder): i vote yes
Rothuss Carder: The goblins out here weren't too tough, really. Just numbers of them. Probably the Pod man mushroom guy who broke a couple of my ribs and rearranged a few of my internal organs. Temporarily, I hope. It still hurts.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): If I'm there
Aien Mountainbane: Hmmmm
Aien Mountainbane: Looks at Melange, Why would you stay with these people?
Rothuss Carder: There was the Pod Man the size of an ogre, but I didn't actually fight him.
MeLange: Hmmm? Why not?
Rothuss Carder: What was it, 12 foot tall or so?
MeLange: Big, that's for sure
Ratbone Carder: at least
Rothuss Carder: I mean, big enough to throw MeL here across the cavern.
MeLange: What else is there for me to do?
Aien Mountainbane: frowns, So why would you travel with a pirate? looking at Lirt
Vee Barlett: Again with them accusations and no proof.
MeLange: that wasn't fun
MeLange: Don't care if she's a pirate, care if she's got my back in battle, and she does
Lirtimya: Because Cap'n here is my friend, and I wouldn't exactly call us pirates, we're returning supplies, not stealing them aren't we?
Vee Barlett: drinks her drink and says nothing
Aien Mountainbane: Nods
Rothuss Carder: So you're saying you're just bad at piracy?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
Aien Mountainbane: Looking at Ratbone, who would you save out of this lot?
Ratbone Carder: That's not helping!
Ratbone Carder: jabs him with her elbow
Rothuss Carder: OW!
Lirtimya: Are you saying you're bad at piracy too?
Rothuss Carder: grimaces away the bruised ribs
Ratbone Carder: Can't people from pirate families be uninterested in piracy?
Ratbone Carder: And do something else instead?
Ratbone Carder: Like help their churchy friends?
Aien Mountainbane: (waiting for Ratbone's answer to his question)
Ratbone Carder: Oh that was for me?!
Ratbone Carder: My brother of course, duh!
Ratbone Carder: But I'd save every single one if I could
Levi Reed: Wow, ouch
Levi Reed: That guy?
Vee Barlett: Think he's beyond savin' but blood matters, I get it.
Temperance: doesn't look particularly surprised by the answer
Rothuss Carder: Love you too, buddy.
Ratbone Carder: You got something to say about my brother?!?!
Ratbone Carder: Threatening look at Levi
Rothuss Carder: chuckles.
Aien Mountainbane: Looks over Temperance, How is the church served by these people?
Temperance: thinks carefully over the question
Levi Reed: Nah, I'm just joking
Levi Reed: Reluctantly
Spring (Ratbone Carder): hoping to hear an insighful priesty answer
Temperance: Are you asking how non-priests serve the church? And if so, which church?
wyjyoon (Temperance): Because I have no idea
Spring (Ratbone Carder): or mysterious. mysterious answer
Aien Mountainbane: He is quiet and takes a drink from his goblet, waiting to hear her answer
Spring (Ratbone Carder): ooo judo answer! turn it back on em!
wyjyoon (Temperance): Temperance might be a priestess but Wendy is neither insightful or priestly
Spring (Ratbone Carder): I think you did good
Carissa (Vee Barlett): don't think he accepts that answer
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't think he does either
Spring (Ratbone Carder): don't think he recognized that answer
wyjyoon (Temperance): But I don't want to reveal too much about Vee or the party unless I have consent to do that
Rothuss Carder: sips at his drink and watches Alen.
Lemon (Levi Reed): You do what you think is right
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you can just point out today's events, not their life histories
Ratbone Carder: Isn't it everyone's duty to serve the gods? And therefore by proxy serve the church sometimes?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): or state their strengths
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you don't have to reveal anything and still answer him
Ratbone Carder: We are good friends, and we serve each other
Ratbone Carder: so it's only right to help our friends who serve the church professionally yes?
Temperance: Without any specificities it would be difficult to answer properly. But I do know the Captain and the rest of us went through a cave full of fungal podmen at the Temple's request
MeLange: Like we're friends, but there are also benefits
Vee Barlett: drinks and waits and listens
Ratbone Carder: giggles
Ratbone Carder: not this time, MeLange!
Rothuss Carder: starts to say something, then glances at Ratbone and shuffles away, protecting his ribs.
Aien Mountainbane: The church asked you to go into caves full of ..... fungal podmen.... ?
Vee Barlett: Nah, they only asked us to come here. But as I said, it's been a long three days. Give her a break, she's still learnin'
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okay to tell him about the humans being transformed into podmen or no?
wyjyoon (Temperance): And I said go through
Ratbone Carder: I don't think the church knows about the fungal podmen. They were a hazard on the way
Carissa (Vee Barlett): he say T so he knows to a degree, but technically the church didn't send us into the cave so not sure that'd help
Carissa (Vee Barlett): *saw T
wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes
Levi Reed: We were hoping there was a way around the landslide through there. But there... wasn't
Ratbone Carder: points at Levi
Ratbone Carder: what he said
Aien Mountainbane: Listening
Rothuss Carder: So, how long have people been disappearing and getting kidnapped around here, anyways?
Aien Mountainbane: Ahhh
Levi Reed: And what are you going to do about the fungal army?
Ratbone Carder: Pointing at brother
Aien Mountainbane: So you can think
Vee Barlett: snorts
Rothuss Carder: Don't tell Vee that.
Levi Reed: And maybe you can give us some kind of documentation to take back to Orange Sunsets so they know we did their bidding
Vee Barlett: After some rest.
Ratbone Carder: You got your abductions. You got your landslides. You got your pile o wagons
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yes, god, rest please
Vee Barlett: Ain't safe on these roads a night if ya don't know that by now.
Rothuss Carder: And checking up on our friends we rescued. Make sure they're doing alrigth.
Ratbone Carder: and you got your cavern system full of ugly mushrooms. AND you got your goblins too
Rothuss Carder: I'm sure they'd appreciate it.
Aien Mountainbane: Ever since the Full Moons something different has been stalking the forests
Levi Reed: Goblins are a natural hazard. This fungal stuff... something creepy
Vee Barlett: It's a mushroom man. He's growin' an army from kidnappin's
Aien Mountainbane: We have lost 17 priests from the Church
Ratbone Carder: holy moly
Temperance: Seventeen priests... quite a number, then
Ratbone Carder: whoa. i mean whoa
Levi Reed: 17 and you didn't send for help?
Aien Mountainbane: Well members of the Church not all of them were a member of a circle
Rothuss Carder: Takes a sip.
Aien Mountainbane: That is why we did not send anyone south
Aien Mountainbane: Minor raids to start
Vee Barlett: How'd you send your messages then?
Aien Mountainbane: then a landslide
Ratbone Carder: but you did send messages somehow
Rothuss Carder: Ever think to check to see if someone in the Church was working with them? Right under a church is a strange place to try and build an army.
Ratbone Carder: semaphore? blinky lights?
Rothuss Carder: But it makes a great story.
Aien Mountainbane: and we sent out a group of 6 who disapeared entirely
Levi Reed: Hate to break it to you, but they're probably mushrooms by now
Levi Reed: Or dead. We killed a lot of mushrooms
Ratbone Carder: makes a mind blown gesture at Rothuss
Aien Mountainbane: Then we sent 2 more higher level priests with guards to head south and we never heard back
Levi Reed: In our defense, we tried to talk to them, but they just started in on the murderin
MeLange: can't decide if it all makes me want to eat mushrooms more... or less
Lemon (Levi Reed): Honestly... I much prefer the caves to talking to priests.
Shislif (MeLange): ohhh burn
wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol
Vee Barlett: It's a mad alchemist lab in those caves, and we only seen parts of it. Whatever that thing is, we hobbled it, but ain't sure for how long.
Vee Barlett: We only came to talk to y'all about the shipment. We didn't come to clear caves so we did what we could before we had to get out.
Vee Barlett: So. You're welcome.
MeLange: threw me clear across the room
Aien Mountainbane: I will want to get better full reports from all of you about this
Levi Reed: I'd suggest you set us up to get back to our temple so they can send help... ubt... they're pretty selfish, honestly, not sure they'll send help.
Vee Barlett: Full reports in return for us gettin' healed and sleep, yeah?
Ratbone Carder: and foods?
Aien Mountainbane: Eventually we will need to clear away that landslide
MeLange: maybe you'll have to make it about them then
MeLange: don't forget food Vee
Aien Mountainbane: a place to stay, a few good warm meals as you stay with us
Vee Barlett: holds up her drink
MeLange: maybe a massage would be nice too
Aien Mountainbane: and you should be back to normal soon,
Aien Mountainbane: well
Vee Barlett: That sounds good. Guess I need food, too.
Aien Mountainbane: maybe not all of you, glances over at Merithina
Rothuss Carder: I'm a bad influence on you, Mel.
Vee Barlett: She gonna be okay?
MeLange: I think massages are good influence hehe
Aien Mountainbane: Raises an eyebrow looking at Vee
Vee Barlett: She was in there for awhile in some weird... pod thing. Ain't sure if it affected her physically. Definitely mentally, I'm sure.
Aien Mountainbane: Ahh
TMO (Rothuss Carder): (I missed all interaction with Merithina - what's wrong with her?)
Aien Mountainbane: we will take care of everyone that we can
Ratbone Carder: It's her companion
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (trauma)
Levi Reed: And what will you do with the ones that you can't take care of?
Ratbone Carder: She's really been upset over Thuskar
Aien Mountainbane: None of you leave without asking me first
Carissa (Vee Barlett): (she was prisoner but her friend is half plant, she lost most her caravan, so....yeahh)
Vee Barlett: raises brow
Vee Barlett: Ain't prisoners, are we?
MeLange Looks at Aien
Aien Mountainbane: Guests who have a lot to report on
Aien Mountainbane: Unless you can write?
Rothuss Carder: oof. that sounds boring.
Levi Reed: I can do it, I like talking
Ratbone Carder: We perform
Vee Barlett: Fine. If ya feed me and give me a place to sleep, I'll stay for a bit. But when I want out, I'm gettin' out.
MeLange: All of us? Surely Jeri can just summarize for us all
Temperance: I can write if necessary
Ratbone Carder: Rothuss, you can be a mushroom guy and I'll be a goblin
Vee Barlett: And some of them really like talkin'
Aien Mountainbane: I need written reports, not an intrepretive dance
Shislif (MeLange): lol
Vee Barlett: covers a laugh
Levi Reed: You interpret the dance into words for your report
Ratbone Carder: but but I'm really good at the dance part
Levi Reed: I don't know how to write or I'd do it for ya
Levi Reed: It'd be a really good report, I promise
Aien Mountainbane: pushes back from the table
Rothuss Carder: I think written reports would probably be greatly improved if accompanied with an interpretive dance.
Levi Reed: Very entertaining
Vee Barlett: Well Aien, guess yer gonna have to be smart about who you ask first.
Aien Mountainbane: In the morning we will talk again
Vee Barlett: holds up her goblet in reply and finishes her drink
Aien Mountainbane: For now welcome to the Church of the Mists
Aien Mountainbane: You are our guests
MeLange: Thank you
Levi Reed: guests, not prisoners
Rothuss Carder: We are your guests, and you are our Host. Thank you.
Ratbone Carder: Rothuss i'm gonna write it but use the manuscript as a prop
MeLange: It does seem quite misty in here
Rothuss Carder: toasts Alen
Ratbone Carder: like when we got to that room
Ratbone Carder: oh wait, maybe not that part

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Do I know, the Mushroom Man?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): mushroom man

BOB smiles
Shislif (MeLange): that's how I got in
Shislif (MeLange): :)
Ratbone Carder: okay next time we should use a form
Shislif (MeLange): hey I'm not newest player anymore sweet

Shislif (MeLange): lol
BOB When you went from level 1 to level 2 you rolled a 3 for hitpoints, you can keep that OR you can roll a d8 to see if you can do better
BOB and not sure TMO, working through everything slowly
TMO (Rothuss Carder): actually, you and I might want to go over Rothuss offline, since he's quite behind on his leveling
BOB have not leveled Rothuss yet
Vee Barlett: one at a time, mannn
wyjyoon (Temperance): Um, okay, what does 3 for hit points mean? Does that mean I get three more or?

Vee Barlett: 3 more health
BOB Yes you got three more
Carissa (Vee Barlett): OR try olling for better
BOB you went from 1st level to 2nd level

BOB Ok so the d8
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sorry cat was catting but I'd reroll
BOB next to the d6

Spring (Ratbone Carder): whee!
Temperance's health adjusted by +6
BOB She will have several things to train for including 2nd level spells

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yeah that's why I'm thinking I might keep it this time
Carissa (Vee Barlett): rude
Spring (Ratbone Carder): oh if it's a d10 and you have 10 why in the worled roll?
Levi Reed's health adjusted by +12
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no she has a 5 out of 10
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so debating if I want to try higher
Lemon (Levi Reed): I don't know, I was thinking what are the chances you roll lower for hp twice in a row, but... I mean, they're dice so
Spring (Ratbone Carder): If it's a d10 how do you get higher than 10?
BOB I am guessing Levi keeps the 8 rather than reroll
Lemon (Levi Reed): yes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no no, meaning it autorolled a d10 for her and gave her 5. I have a chance to reroll and try for higher than 5 but whatever I roll is mine

Lemon (Levi Reed): Just like a mini adventure
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol it's okay I'll get over it probably
BOB and the last one is Jericho who only rolled a 1
Shislif (MeLange): i think he should reroll
Carissa (Vee Barlett): she'lll just keep using Levi as a shield
Jericho's health adjusted by +1
GM: and the last one is Jericho who only rolled a 1
Spring (Ratbone Carder): sorry
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ratbone rubbing it in
BOB So that was an interesting story arc
Carissa (Vee Barlett): understatement
BOB I will do up all the training notes for who is trained to what levels
BOB and what open things to train for
BOB so that you can figure out what to opt for next
Lemon (Levi Reed): Rangers don't get training at level 4, yes?
Shislif (MeLange): kewl
BOB Not sure
BOB have to look it all over
Carissa (Vee Barlett): nope unless you didn't train anything last time
Carissa (Vee Barlett): like Vee still has an open slot from 3
Lemon (Levi Reed): I trained botany, which was two slots, so I think that was everythign I could do
wyjyoon (Temperance): Was the last one this harrowing? I remember you guys trading silver and then traveling to a temple to pretend the statues were talking
BOB Levi still has at least one slot open
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Levi used both on botany yes
BOB (LINK)
<a href="http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki-old/pmwiki.php?n=Main.DragonslayerTrainingPlans">(LINK)</a>
Carissa (Vee Barlett): rangers gained one WP and one NWP at 3
BOB I will update that page
BOB please do not edit it yet
Carissa (Vee Barlett): nope it was more RP and chasing a ruffian
Carissa (Vee Barlett): before that was goblins which was some combat but nothing like this and near death
Lemon (Levi Reed): Harrowing in a an emotional way, not a physical one
BOB So Wendy this is the craszy/wonderful/insane/fun thing about story arcs. This was supposed to be go into the caves, find out that crazy stuff was happening and leave, go to the church of the mists and tell them
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we overachieved
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh gotcha
Shislif (MeLange): yea we did
BOB Then the second story arc involving this was the idea of rescuring the people and get out
Lemon (Levi Reed): Y'all followed my "easty is beasty" to our detriment
Carissa (Vee Barlett): northy is worthy saved us
Lemon (Levi Reed): That doesn't even rhyme
wyjyoon (Temperance): We did kinda end up rescuing the people right?
BOB Then the third time for a story arc might/would have been the second and third level
Carissa (Vee Barlett): blame TMO he came up with a way to try to tyhme it
Shislif (MeLange): lol northy worthy i like it
TMO (Rothuss Carder): it *CAN* rhyme!!
BOB So you blended two of the story arcs I had planned
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, if you are bad at english speaking
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you're welcome
wyjyoon (Temperance): Whoopsie daisies : )
BOB But next will be questing for weapon trainers I think
Lemon (Levi Reed): Again, my problem was my one track problem solving. Problem was: "might be a way through caves to temple" solution was: keep going through caves no matter what"
BOB That and thief training
Spring (Ratbone Carder): northy go-forthy?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, yes, good Spring!
BOB and also Temperance will need spell training
BOB so lots for me to go over
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Ooo does Lirt get to train more people?
BOB Thank you all for a very intense fun day
Carissa (Vee Barlett): maybe
BOB 10 hours in
Lemon (Levi Reed): So we're ending early?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee might want weather sense still
Carissa (Vee Barlett): aww no rp or anything? we still have an hour!
BOB I need a break
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol, fair
BOB But please continue
BOB and then I can come back and be the NPCs again
Spring (Ratbone Carder): i also am physically tired
Shislif (MeLange): it was fun but also a lot lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I am here but up to you all
Lemon (Levi Reed): This is a very good stopping point if we choose that. I legitimately do not want to talk to those priests again tonight
Lemon (Levi Reed): But I can be here
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Bob how close am I to level 5? My page wo=ith the xp and stuff hasn't updated so I can see that
Shislif (MeLange): I'll leave FG running prolly check on some food stuff
Spring (Ratbone Carder): OMG yeah let's not
Carissa (Vee Barlett): also why is Lirt's name not bold? random question
Lemon (Levi Reed): OH, hey, yeah, shouldn't Mini be official now too?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): he is
Carissa (Vee Barlett): end of rum runners
wyjyoon (Temperance): On my end Levi Lirt Rothuss and Vee aren't bolded
Lemon (Levi Reed): fucking nepotism
Lemon (Levi Reed): :P
Carissa (Vee Barlett): interesting
Carissa (Vee Barlett): LOL
Spring (Ratbone Carder): hahaha
Lemon (Levi Reed): But actually I remember, now that you say that
Lemon (Levi Reed): Can we do like, mini bonus games?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we all calling it a night? or you want to listen to vee grumble about how people keep accusing her of being a pirate? so rude
Carissa (Vee Barlett): what are mini bonus games?
JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Sorry, but I don't have any bonus games for you lemon
Carissa (Vee Barlett): LOL
Lemon (Levi Reed): lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): damn he's quick
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't mind staying : )
Spring (Ratbone Carder): that was really rude
Lemon (Levi Reed): Like, a game on a Saturday that only takes half the day instead of the whole day
Carissa (Vee Barlett): huh dunno if we've ever done that
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you'll have to ask bob when/if he returns
Spring (Ratbone Carder): We did that time we were mice
Lemon (Levi Reed): Like I enjoy the all day games, but... I get sleepy
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Yeah but that was like... a whole different game
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and COVID times, lol
User has gone AFK. (JtomTMO)
Lemon (Levi Reed): A bonus evening game for a birthday or something would be nice
Carissa (Vee Barlett): suck up to bob, mail him some wine, and ask him to do that lol
Spring (Ratbone Carder): so we mean more like a side quest
Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh I read it as "my birthday"
Spring (Ratbone Carder): same characters, separate plot
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but my advice still stands
Shislif (MeLange): yea I'd be up for some saturday or sunday games
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, we could do that. But I mean just like... a Friday game, but another one the next nigth too, kind of thing
Shislif (MeLange): ah that sounds cool too :)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): again, he likes wine so if we commit and convince him to... then maybe
Lemon (Levi Reed): Unless people like, have social lives on saturdays or something. I don't usually
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I'd be game for it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): who has lives? I don't
Spring (Ratbone Carder): hahahahahahahahahaha
Carissa (Vee Barlett): except when work exists
Spring (Ratbone Carder): haha social life hahahaha
Spring (Ratbone Carder): haha
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol spring
wyjyoon (Temperance): Does it not count as social interaction if it's over a screen?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Like my birthday is May 7th, so I wouldn't mind a bonus birthday game the Saturday before or after... but not ALL day. Evening, so I could sleep would be ideal
Spring (Ratbone Carder): i've actually been trying to GET a social life and failing
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I tihnk it does, this is social
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah my therapist says this counts
Spring (Ratbone Carder): oh good
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yay us being social!
Lemon (Levi Reed): But I have also been trying to meet people in real life, who live near me. But mostly I am too tired for that nonsense.
wyjyoon (Temperance): (insert gold star emoticon)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): people are tiring when you can't take a break from them to nap
Spring (Ratbone Carder): yeah the fatigue
Shislif (MeLange): real life, sounds nice :)
Ratbone Carder: okay i am going to bed. nitey nite!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): I honestly have no idea what you all are talking about
Lemon (Levi Reed): It's not even the people, it's just existing that does it for me
Carissa (Vee Barlett): night spring!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): G'nite SiS!
Shislif (MeLange): nigght!
Lemon (Levi Reed): Goodnight Spring!@
'Spring' disconnected
wyjyoon (Temperance): Goodnight Spring : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): existing is tiring
wyjyoon (Temperance): Valid
BOB Back
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that was a very short break
BOB and bonus games are vaild in any form
BOB Had to walk and put things away
BOB dishes and glasses are down stairs again
Carissa (Vee Barlett): good bet nyrma prefers that
wyjyoon (Temperance): Moving to a softer seat because my back hurts a little : )
Lemon (Levi Reed): Great, can we schedule one for May 4th or 11th? same time as Friday games?
BOB ALso Yes to Jtom being offical
BOB but he has not given me an official name to put on the list
wyjyoon (Temperance): My birthday's in March if that helps : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
BOB was supposed to talk with his Dad about what is appropriate
BOB respecting privacy etc
Carissa (Vee Barlett): my birthday falls too close to actual birthday game so...
BOB What sort of adventures do you want to do for weapon slot training?
BOB Or other things?
BOB Wendy what do you think you want to explore?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): vee wants to know why this church dude keeps calling her a pirate because rude
BOB "But you have heard of me"
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I mean yes that too
wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't think these people would agree to examining more plant life
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I love that movie
Carissa (Vee Barlett): one of the few I've seen butonly the first one
BOB That is the key thing Wendy, it is for Temperance
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we were dragged along for this one so feel free to drag
Vee Barlett: just know Vee is keeping tabs
wyjyoon (Temperance): Brain noodles are brain noodling, so I'll talk about NWPs because that's an easy start : )
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol fair
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'm pretty interested in anatomy rn because that was the one I was on the fence about
BOB What sort of adventure do you think would be fun
wyjyoon (Temperance): Bureaucracy took up two slots
wyjyoon (Temperance): Um
Carissa (Vee Barlett): easy start: sea or land or both?
BOB for example if you were to go do something for someone who would train you in anatomy
Carissa (Vee Barlett): city or rural? jungle or mountain?
Shislif (MeLange): maybe something with less caves would be cool
BOB bring me back the skeleton of a unicorn
BOB sort of thing
Lemon (Levi Reed): Let's go find a grave robber
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I missed the less and thought you wanted MORE caves and was about to yell at you, lol
Carissa (Vee Barlett): visit the museum of oddities wherever it is
wyjyoon (Temperance): No caves, um
wyjyoon (Temperance): Museums or libraries? : )
Shislif (MeLange): lol
BOB retrieve a rare book
Lemon (Levi Reed): Or like, back in the old days, dissecting humans was a huge no no, people had to do it on the DL... we can go find someone who does that
Shislif (MeLange): flying islands are always fun :)
BOB I can arrange that
BOB if you can come up with an idea on how to fly up to one
Shislif (MeLange): airships doy
Lemon (Levi Reed): Vee's albatross
wyjyoon (Temperance): Retrieving a rare book sounds pretty fun. Lemon's idea about finding someone who can do the no-no on dissection might be cool
Carissa (Vee Barlett): where is Mr. Ross? :(
Shislif (MeLange): or on the back of a friendly gentle dragon
BOB I do not get that one
Shislif (MeLange): a helium potion like willy wonka style
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Mr. Ross was the Albatross from our first sea trip
BOB Ahh
BOB he woudl be at the bar
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and I don't know where he went
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I hope so
BOB He would NOT be in the caves
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we'll have to make sure when we get back
Carissa (Vee Barlett): she's not a horrible bird friend, she definitely wouldn't bring him into a cave
Carissa (Vee Barlett): canary in a coal mine anyone??
wyjyoon (Temperance): Also do unicorns exist in this world? That's cool if so
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
TMO (Rothuss Carder): yes
BOB She is the kind of bird friend who trains a parrot to say Help Help a witch cast a spell on me
TMO (Rothuss Carder): one wouldn't let Shur near it, for some reason.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yup
TMO (Rothuss Carder): But Jilly could
Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, that reminds me, aren't I supposed to have some kind of animal frienships skills?
Lemon (Levi Reed): Like, as a land ranger?
BOB Yes
Carissa (Vee Barlett): animal empathy
BOB and you are supposed to have an opposed creature
Carissa (Vee Barlett): goblins I thought?
Lemon (Levi Reed): yeah, goblins
BOB Goblins are good
BOB Podmen are good
Carissa (Vee Barlett): which if she wasn't hurt she would have gotten a bonus when she attacked them
BOB at least as enemeies
Lemon (Levi Reed): Is animal empathy a skill that should be on my sheet or just a thing I have
Carissa (Vee Barlett): you made us choose a couple months ago
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Levi went goblins, Vee went scrags
Carissa (Vee Barlett): just a thing you have unless Bob wants to change that later this week when he goes through things
BOB I will double check that
Vee Barlett: oh actualy I have it listed under Abilities -> Features
Animal Empathy
BOB We need to come up with a story arc for Lirt to find new spells too
BOB as well as the bards
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Bards can go back to bard school
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we can take lirt to the library
BOB Not for spells
Carissa (Vee Barlett): then what's the use of school???
Lemon (Levi Reed): nwps?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): Bard College. BARD college. Why call it such?
BOB all the others NWP type things
TMO (Rothuss Carder): at 4th, looks like we bards get both a WP and NWP
BOB performing acting dancing singing prestigitation
Lemon (Levi Reed): Ok, going to brag a little bit now, but can I just say how much better I've gotten at knowing things?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yay
BOB smiles
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well as someone who neither maged nor bard how do they usually get spells?
BOB Bards find magic in a haphazard manner
Lemon (Levi Reed): In just three and a half short years, Wendy, you, too, can have a slight idea of what is going on and how to play!
TMO (Rothuss Carder): Yep! I'm awaiting INSPIRATION
BOB a bit here and a bit there
Carissa (Vee Barlett): sned rothuss to the streets of osterhold to seduce someone for magic
wyjyoon (Temperance): I'm sure I'll take much longer than that, but thank you Lemon : ) I'll ask for your wisdom when in doubt <3
TMO (Rothuss Carder): That's a different kind of magic, Vee!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): says who?
BOB I do hope you get a feel now for the big city through the wilderness of the near mountains and the sailing over the local islands
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but really, I don't know how one who doesn't have a diety finds magic
BOB Its a kind of magic
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no as in, I can't come up with ideas because I don't understand
Carissa (Vee Barlett): if BARD College doesn't work, how do we get the bards spells? and lirt? although I think library for her? I don't know
BOB Both of them can find scrolls and books
Lemon (Levi Reed): Or we go off in search of more bards and mages to meet?
BOB Mages also study and learn
BOB and that too
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok that doesn't help me with ideas either so you all are on your own on where to find those things
BOB do a favor for a wizard so they trade you a spell
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok that helps more
Lemon (Levi Reed): We could ask Vee's dads, they probably know some people
Carissa (Vee Barlett): so we find wizards and magic and things
Lemon (Levi Reed): Or at least know some people who know some people
wyjyoon (Temperance): We found some scrolls in the cave, and I think if you go to some ancient ruins or something there might be some?
Rothuss Carder: we also just got a whole bunch of scrolls. It's possible some of them are magic
Vee Barlett: speaking of her dads and magic.... I want to know what happened to Troy the Tanner still. That one's bugged me the most
TMO (Rothuss Carder): ooc
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we do need to see what those scrolls are, true
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we may have to spend some money IDing things
Lemon (Levi Reed): Can't Lirt detect magic at least?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
Lemon (Levi Reed): She have any spells left before we sleep for the night?
Shislif (MeLange): gonna do some dinner stuff, have a great week everyone :)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): forget how you check what scrolls are what tho
Carissa (Vee Barlett): night sharif!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): WAIT
Lemon (Levi Reed): Goodnight Sharif! I'll miss you baby!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): hand Rothuss the buckler!
Shislif (MeLange): I'll be sure to check in!
Shislif (MeLange): N I'll try that off line gaming stuff a go :)
Carissa (Vee Barlett): the buckler!
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I won't remember in two weeks!
Shislif (MeLange): oh right!
Shislif (MeLange): how do i give that over?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): just action it
Vee Barlett: (Melange) hands Rothuss the buckler.
MeLange: Hands the buckler over Vee
MeLange: Hands the buckler over Vee
Carissa (Vee Barlett): that works too
Carissa (Vee Barlett): ty
Shislif (MeLange): of course
BOB have a great week
Shislif (MeLange): thx take care :)
wyjyoon (Temperance): Night Sharif : )
'Shislif' disconnected
TMO (Rothuss Carder): night!
Vee Barlett: looks at the buckler, then Rothuss, then tucks it away.
Rothuss Carder: chuckles.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's not spite, don't worry
Rothuss Carder: It never is...
Lemon (Levi Reed): We might be able to get the priests to identify the scrolls as part of the payment?
TMO (Rothuss Carder): It never is...
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes good thought
Carissa (Vee Barlett): free training, ID the magic items
Carissa (Vee Barlett): and gold
TMO (Rothuss Carder): biggest worry is if they say "Hey, these are ours! Thanks! *yoink*"
wyjyoon (Temperance): They did ask for a full report, maybe they'll do it if it's part of the report?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): maybe
wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh true TMO
Carissa (Vee Barlett): same
Lemon (Levi Reed): Did we loot anything in the cave after I left, besides the library?
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no just the library
Carissa (Vee Barlett): scrolls and the stuff on the desk
Carissa (Vee Barlett): we didn't look through the bookshelf because it might have had traps
wyjyoon (Temperance): Were the goblin bodies ever looted btw
Lemon (Levi Reed): We did get a shitload of gold from the shambling mound area, though
BOB no
Carissa (Vee Barlett): no and neither was the nursery and I meant to point it out but... I wanted out and forgt
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but apparently there'll be a third arc to this eventually so...
wyjyoon (Temperance): I mean surviving was a bit more important, issok. If we want to come back better equipped we can, like you said
Lemon (Levi Reed): I actually really look forward to going back in there when we are better prepared.
Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes
Lemon (Levi Reed): I liked this cave
Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait no
BOB LOL
Carissa (Vee Barlett): i did not
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I do want to be better prepared if that happens, though
Lemon (Levi Reed): I know, I know, I'm the only one who likes caves
Carissa (Vee Barlett): keep that staff close if it does :P
Lemon (Levi Reed): But I lied it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol you are allow to like it
Lemon (Levi Reed): liked*
Carissa (Vee Barlett): at least someone did
Carissa (Vee Barlett): it was different I'll give you that
wyjyoon (Temperance): If we weren't nearly dying every time we encountered things I would say I was pretty curious about the shambling mounds and other creatures
Carissa (Vee Barlett): most interesting cave I've seen so far
wyjyoon (Temperance): But that's just Temperance : )
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, I bet there's some good stuff down there. But we weren't ready for it
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol
TMO: There were a couple of parts where TMO thought to himself, "What are you people DOING?" LOL
Carissa (Vee Barlett): but TMO didn't say that outloud
Lemon (Levi Reed): Then TMO should have said something
TMO: Oh no, I wasn't there
Carissa (Vee Barlett): confused BUT remember that communication is important
TMO: #1 of which was when Rothuss slipped and fell down the water slide, and *everyone just shrugged and jumped after him*
BOB 100%
Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol well they weren't going to leave you
Carissa (Vee Barlett): I wasn't there but that was clear
Lemon (Levi Reed): Yes, god, please, my only request is that people communicate
TMO: Totally understand, but none of y'all had any idea if it was safe or if there was a way back. :D
Lemon (Levi Reed): And no one made any other suggestions so
Levi Reed: Yeah, but you can say that OOC too
Carissa (Vee Barlett): well your two sensible people are Vee and Lirt and at least Vee was gone and maybe Lirt too so.......
Lemon: Levi and Lemon both aren't great at logic-ing
wyjyoon (Temperance): At the time it seemed like acting fast was the best option
Lemon: You need to speak up OOC at least
TMO: iirc, I didn't have time to. And I'm not chastising you for it.
Carissa: and Wendy is getting there, but she's still new
TMO: it fit the characters
BOB true
Lemon: No, *I* am chastising *you* for it :P
Carissa: no, not thinking you are BUT it helps if you tell us OOC if we're being dumb, too
Lemon: My experience with this game is limited to what I've seen in this game. You have a broader perspective, and I like hearing it
Lemon: Even if we decide to just be dumb after hearing it
wyjyoon: Hearing more thoughts would help with the learning process too! : )
wyjyoon: Why did I press alt
wyjyoon: Force of habit
Carissa: yes i think the hardest for me was being gone for three weeks, coming back and being like, "wtf" but because I wasn't there most session we just... went with it. I can't armchair if I'm not participating
Carissa: BUT it didn't stop me from posting some OOC thoughts for you all to consider
Lemon: My biggest problem is not thinking outside the box I'm stuck in. And it's not that I'm not trying, it's just that the things I think of are not outside the box
Lemon: So I need someone to be like, but wait there's more, so that I can think on another track too
Carissa: kind of like how we got stuck on the "we need to clear out this cave!" until it was suddenly a "wait, why?"
Lemon: Exactly
Carissa: like how you don't HAVE to limit yourself to breakfast foods for breakfast, but sometimes you need someone to tell you the obvious
Lemon: I need someone to verbally shake me and be like "ok but also something else!"
Carissa: so in conclusion, stop keeping thoughts to yourselves!
Carissa: all of you!
wyjyoon: Still practicing that : ) Sometimes I'm just a confused bean
Lemon: That's ok, even that can break me out of a cycle
Carissa: worst that happens is I read it OOC roll my eyes, and probably won't comment so you won't even know I rolled my eyes!
Lemon: Even if you're like, explain why we're doing this?
Lemon: Then I can be like, actually, I don't know
TMO: part of my issue is playing Rothuss. I have to disconnect part of my brain. The cautious/paranoid part. And that's the part that does those warnings and plans.
Carissa: yes
BOB explaing to someone how something works helps like it was with Orison today
TMO: I haven't yet gotten comfortable enough with Rothuss to run both channels at the same time
Carissa: yeah and then we discovered why one was worried about healing spells but not the other
TMO: Rothuss fundamentally doesn't 'get' the concept of consequences.
wyjyoon: I also understood that roleplaying a Priestess was going to mean I would do a lot of wisdom and insight but that's still tricky for me
Lemon: Nah you're a baby priest, you're fine
Carissa: ehhh not necessarily and it doesn't have to be ALL the time
Carissa: she's wise about politics but not caves that's fair
Lemon: Your insight and wisdom can be just as bad as anyone elses
Carissa: Rae was wise about beauty and sparkles and friends but not, like, blood and guts
Carissa: anyways play how you want, you can roll what you need
wyjyoon: So does socializing adequately include as a Charisma thing
TMO: my poor dog is so bored. It's been too cold to take him out for frisbee
wyjyoon: Oh no : ( Poor pup
BOB it can
Lemon: He has a fur coat and you are a human who can aquire a coat
Lemon: It's not THAT cold
BOB It can depend on the skills you try to use
Lemon: And also sometimes you can get wisdom with a roll, especially if you have somewhat of an idea of what you're trying to find out.
wyjyoon: I'm just trying to figure out how to roleplay bureaucracy accurately. Because it makes me think that she has to know how to talk to other priests properly, but her Charisma doesn't help her
Carissa: lol so she understands the rules but not hope to impliment then when talking to others
Carissa: like a dry lawyer
Lemon: Nah, if she messes up, they'll probably just be like, "she's from a weird church"
Lemon: I mean if the roll is good
Carissa: we haven't done much RP with Temp yet in such a situation where she'd use it either for you to see how you can work it in this setting
Lemon: If the roll is bad, they'll be like, "wtf????"
wyjyoon: I guess no better way to see than to use it a lot : )
Lemon: But it's very VERY difficult to make mistakes during RP that we can't fix with more RP
wyjyoon: Who knows Lemon maybe she is from a weird church : )
Lemon: Especially since your new, BOB will probably go easy on you for awhile while you get your bearings
Lemon: Maybe she is! That would be fun!
Carissa: all the churches are weird so far so....
wyjyoon: I know he has been, and I appreciate it
wyjyoon: Like a church that obsesses over truth serums
Lemon: Yeah, so just because you might beauracracy in a way they would find unusual, doesn't mean it won't succeed
BOB chuckles
Carissa: Matty used cooking to try to figure out where some dolphins were located because "his crew hunted some once" so... just go with the flow and if your logic checks out then you're good
wyjyoon: Fair enough, thank you! I'll see how I can have fun with it in the long run : ) I did pick it to have fun
Lemon: and if it doesn't, BOB will just tell you no
Carissa: again the worst you can do it not roll in those situations
Carissa: not rolling means nothing happens
wyjyoon: Roll until BOB says no, got it : )
Carissa: lol mostly
Carissa: or if we're in a cave and can't waste time
wyjyoon: Oh yeah, I had no idea that if you roll a skill check you had to stay still
wyjyoon: Learning new things every day is fun : )
Carissa: lol one way of putting it
Lemon: lol
BOB there are lots of variables
Carissa: sometimes there are better ways to learn like when not in a cave full of mutant pod things
wyjyoon: I look forward to filling my noodly brains with more information soon : ) And trying to get specifics on Temperance
Lemon: Well, we now know she can use magic staffs to mind control fungus men, so she's gaining some serious personality now
Carissa: we can figure it out with time and if doing RP with her helps, I'm open for that
Carissa: lol
wyjyoon: I honestly didn't expect it to work
wyjyoon: The staff thing
Carissa: a bit of a scary personality but details
Lemon: Well, her interest in "samples" and "corpses" is also a little scary
Carissa: well we need a reason for Vee to want to keep her around
'Michael' disconnected
BOB Hah
wyjyoon: That was kind of the only thing I started her with : ) Influenced by Carissa and TMO
Lemon: But it's a good balance to the jovial group and the blatant threatening type of scary that Vee is
Carissa: LOL
Carissa: I can't even find words to dispute that
wyjyoon: I don't know if they remember, but we kinda started her character talking about cults and people who would purposely let snakes bite them : )
Lemon: Hard to dispute the cold hard truth
Carissa: lol yes I remember
TMO: heehee
Carissa: hey she's been nice so far and not shanked a person
Carissa: is that a low bar? maybe
Carissa: and she definitely has pummeled Rothuss at least once while they were at the church
wyjyoon: And then we started talking necromancy and BOB said NO
Carissa: put that on the record because she owed him a punch
Lemon: But I like the idea that she's as close to necromancy as you can get while still being a good guy
wyjyoon: I don't know if lawful neutral is considered a good guy, but yes, I do like that she's close to necromancy in that way : )
Carissa: yes a fun balance to explore
BOB grins
wyjyoon: If she had the writing implements she would keep observation notes on all the party members
Lemon: And she can try weird creepy stuff and see what kind of reaction it gets her
Lemon: Like maybe she just doesn't know where the line is
Carissa: if she has reading/writing she can do that
Carissa: and she can post it on site if she wanted as her own page...
wyjyoon: She probably would try it on herself if it meant getting results, yes
Carissa: Vee has her own diary on there
Lemon: Yeah, and if you want, Carissa can set you up a page on the website to put her notes
wyjyoon: Planning on it Carissa : ) So far I have it on google docs
Lemon: I would enjoy reading that
Carissa: welp guess I can do that this week since we have no game because I wanna read it
Carissa: and how Vee definitely does not give off pirate vibes
BOB yes
wyjyoon: Guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow : )
TMO: none at all
Carissa: and she'll never admit it
Carissa: probably
wyjyoon: Might ask more questions about Keldorian religion and churches
wyjyoon: Because I still don't get how churches work
Carissa: those are mostly bob questions but you know I'll help where I can
wyjyoon: Other than the fact that you all encountered some weird churches
Lemon: Yeah, it kind of sounds like they can work however they want to, honestly
BOB Lots to build on that
wyjyoon: I mean I'm really considering exploring whether the truth serum exists in this world or not. After Vee sent me a wiki page on that Tangena plant it got me hooked
wyjyoon: And how I can apply that to her being a priestess
wyjyoon: But that is a big box to open : )
Carissa: lol
Carissa: well that can be her quest to find some more answers
Lemon: Yeah, but share those thoughts, because if you have them, then BOB might decide to implement them somehow
TMO: Don't need to use it on Rothuss. He never lies.
Carissa: and if it DOES....Vee wants in because she knows some buyers
wyjyoon: That kind of quest could be intriguing. Would fit with her wanting to find answers to life's mysteries
BOB Have to consider the idea of is it better than a spell
Carissa: oh forgot zone of truth exists
wyjyoon: Is there a truth spell?
Lemon: Some people don't do things because they're better, they do it because they want to see if they can
Carissa: think it's a 4th level spell so when you hit.. lvl 6 or 7?
Lemon: Have you not seen the Jurassic Park movies?
Carissa: BUT when someone is in zone of truth they know it whereas a serumm....you can slip into a dirnk
Lemon: Yeah
Lemon: Plus she could like, do animal testing or something
wyjyoon: That's what I was thinking
Lemon: Slip it in a pond and have Vee talk to some sketchy fish
Lemon: who knows
wyjyoon: Honestly if Temperance wasn't a priestess she might've been a mortician
BOB grins
wyjyoon: Finding that out right now
Lemon: No reason why she can't be both
Carissa: lol
wyjyoon: Ohoho : )
Lemon: Her church can be the creepy church that provides those kinds of services
wyjyoon: Can it?
Lemon: Maybe a little unconventional for the world, but certainly not evil
Carissa: I mean Vee's actual class is Sea Ranger because she's all about protecting the sea. But she might be a pirate, too, but that's are details.
Lemon: I mean, BOB would make that ruling, but it seems fine to me
Carissa: so your class doesn't have to determine your... life goals?
Carissa: or something
wyjyoon: I wasn't sure that lawfully providing those services would clash with concepts of afterlife and deities and stuff : ) So I was holding off
wyjyoon: But yes, that makes sense Carissa
BOB Priests make good mortians, easing the way into the next life
Lemon: there you go
TMO: honoring the body honors the passing spirit
wyjyoon: Oh yay, guess she's a soon-to-be mortician
Carissa: hospice
Carissa: or funeral director
Carissa: or crime specialist who does autopsy
wyjyoon: So many options to think about : )
Carissa: plenty of real jobs dealing with death that are not evil but needed
wyjyoon: I appreciate those real life occupations, just wasn't sure how it would apply with the religion in the world BOB built : ) Now that I got the ok I'm proceeding
Carissa: again the distinction is doing it with their will OR against their will as the former is evil
Lemon: And so much is unknown about this religion, and the temples all seem to kind of do their own thing, so you can decide a lot of those things on your own, but with the knowlege that BOB might veto or tweak some ideas
BOB I think the smoke effect is nice but need to find the right use for it
TMO: each island seems to be very individualistic
BOB Very much so
wyjyoon: Sitting in previous campaigns always let me know GMs plan a lot of things to make their campaigns eventful and interesting, so I wanted to respect that before doing anything : )
wyjyoon: But yes, I'll note these in my noodly brain and reorganize them all soon
Lemon: I tried to tell you... our process here seems to very much be "fuck around and find out"
wyjyoon: Except when we're nearly dying : )
TMO: this whole part of the world is still very vaguely defined, so lots of room for Player Inventions
'Carissa' disconnected
Lemon: I mean, even then we did, with the staff
JtomTMO: Okay, I'm going to head off, goodnight everyone
BOB have a great weekend
BOB if you close your maps etc
wyjyoon: That's fair. Good night JTom! : )
BOB you can see the new animated smoke on the desktop
JtomTMO: It looks cool
Lemon: Very fancy
TMO: cya son!
'JtomTMO' disconnected
Lemon: But yes, I think I'm also ready for bed
BOB have a great night all
BOB Wendy I will post the chat tomorrow morning
Lemon: Goodnigth friends! This was a fun day!
TMO: g'nite y'all
wyjyoon: Good night everyone! It was fun : )
'Lemon' disconnected
wyjyoon: And yes BOB I'll do story chat or summary if anyone wants me to do it : )
