'Michael' connected

Michael: Reinforcements, have arrived. ANd with that, I must retire to the restroom, ice, and drinks. In that order. I'm sure with washing hands in there somewhere too. Also just FYI bob, I am fried mentally, emotionally, and pretty sure physically about to drop. Ta Ta for now! Be back in like....ten?

'wyjyoon' connected

BOB Smiles Welcome Michael and Wendy

wyjyoon: Hello hello : )

wyjyoon: So, out of complete curiosity, a question about Keldorian deities. Would you say the overlapping area of knowledge between Lorin and Retaw are more like one is an umbrella over the other, or a venn diagram?

Michael: Back. I never did post Wendy, but I still love your summaries.Glad you called out the "How is the church served by these people? Reluctantly." That was gold

BOB smiles

BOB A - more of a venn diagram

BOB B - The Church of the Mists does need more exploration about who they serve and why

wyjyoon: No worries! I heard work was difficult, so it's all good. And I think Lemon did the summary for the game on Saturday, so I'll have to go back and look :D

Michael: Also, only mildly hypothetical, but after reading Alcien (whatever, I forget at the moment) depth of the thrid trout dude, I was kind of like....are all priests like this? Can you be like Anti-priest if they are all this annoything?

wyjyoon: LOL

Michael: Dude lost 17 priests and god knows how many others? Bob says I gotta be making those connections and relationships, but MAN in the real world, I want to tattle on this incompretent dickhead. All these poor people

wyjyoon: Also thanks BOB for that clarification. I was just really curious what it meant by Retaw is often at odds with the other deities listed :)

BOB Again lots more talking about who they are and why they do thing

Michael: I think Jericho is in a pretty bad crisis of...not really faith, but the people of the faith

Michael: if that makes snese

Michael: like, he's trying not to judge the religion by it's people, but defintely hates the people

'Carissa' connected

wyjyoon: I think you can technically appreciate a religion without appreciating some of the people involved. There's different types of people no matter where you go, right?

BOB If all these people who follow the same God have different points of view on what to do what does that mean?

BOB Hello Carissa

Michael: Religion is complicated?

Michael: Prone to Hereitcs, burnings at the stake, assholes....am I close?

BOB Who could have imagined that Michael

Michael: Well, I know several countries at the moment....

Michael: Let's not be the most radical. Let's be the Levelheaded parts

Michael: right word?

Michael: no

Michael: MODERATE

BOB grins

Michael: There that's it

BOB There are lots of fun things

Carissa: hi all! today is a couch day so on my laptop

Michael: Well, except of the foricble conversion into plant beings, but yeah

Michael: No worries Carissa :)

wyjyoon: As long as you're having fun with Jericho, it's good, right? : ) I know I'm just flying by the seat of my pants with Temperance while I'm figuring things out

BOB 90% chat today for you

Michael: I still think I might make it an hour or two, but I am completely drained

Michael: I will make the most of it

Carissa: oh good figured mostly chat so I don't have to mess with a map

Michael: Wendy, you are doing better then Jericho, trust me

BOB Only left icons on the map out of habit

Michael: I do need to figure out how to slowly convert Jericho into the path of violence though

Carissa: piss him off enough?

Michael: I'm STILL haveing trouble finding a good story point. Maybe as easy as...hm...I feel misled by my religion, I may need to simply kill shit to ensure those who need help actually get it

Michael: You know...since this chruch is right here and all these dead people are now plants and all that

BOB Jericho is already drifting down the path from Chaos to Law so the slide from Pacifist to Warrior is working also

Michael: Huh. Didn't know you could change alignment

Michael: Well

Michael: Whatever works. As long as it's not evil we good

BOB It is not a change of alignment required

BOB It is a change of focus

Michael: Ah

wyjyoon: I thought alignment was changeable depending on your character development?

'TMO' connected

Carissa: kill in the name of peace

Michael: <Shrugs>

BOB Hello TMO

Michael: Yeah, we'll call it!?.....

Michael: hm

Michael: killing in the name of peace...

Michael: uh

Carissa: (LINK)

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

wyjyoon: Punishment in the name of Peace

wyjyoon: That's how I put it in the last summary I did

Michael: LOL Carissa!

Carissa: not quite as catchy for the radios

Michael: Avenger!

Michael: Oh wait, I think that's taken by something

Michael: Crusader?

Michael: Actually, pretty sure that's the closet you can get for "killing in the name of peace"

'JtomTMO' connected

Michael: what a dumb concept LOL

BOB Hey there JTom

Michael: Hey JTom!

Michael: How are you today?

Carissa: hi mini!

Carissa: this might be what they were raging against

TMO: hola

Michael: They dress terribly in that video

Michael: Those pants look like they are barely sticking on

Carissa: lol I'm just listening didn't even notice

Michael: LOL

Michael: Hey TMO!

Carissa: hello not mini!

BOB So I am ready for Church discussions, religion discusssions, settlement discussions, training discussions, and yes there is a Plan TM for getting training starting next week

Carissa: no session next week I thought?

Michael: We know it's TM bob, you don't have to say it lol

Michael: Unless you are reinforcing IP protection, in which case carry on

BOB Yes no Live Session next Friday but last Friday was a VERY GOOD session

Carissa: He does because the ONE time he didn't he was forced to be with... family

BOB shufder

Michael: lol

Carissa: I'm around next Friday again if others are :P

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Hello

Michael: I should be around. Honestly, I kinda didn't know we were donig an informal get together and felt real dumb I missed it

Michael: lol

Carissa: Eh, we decided last minute on Discord so just check there

wyjyoon: I'll probably be around too

Michael: Cool beans.

wyjyoon: I honestly didn't know what we were doing for that last Friday, I just happened to be there :D

Michael: So in all honesty bob. Was this the first time a group accidentally brute forced a future encounter cluelessly not realizing it?

TMO: it worked out

wyjyoon: Easty is Beasty TM

Michael: Norhty is Worthy!

Carissa: Northy is Worthy LLC

Michael: TM

Michael: LOL

BOB HAH

'Spring' connected

BOB Welcome Spring

Michael: I also, Carissa. After reading chat, we gotta watch Jericho. He's on the verge of a mental breakdown after the (admittably hilarious) bullshit Alcien the Third Depth gave you guys. Not sure if you could see chat above, but I was like....if we bury him, and no one talks...would anyone find out?

wyjyoon: Wait what

Michael: what about what?

Carissa: Well given Vee isn't the empathetic type, she will push you towards the touchy feely ones ;)

Michael: LOL

wyjyoon: Nothing I probably missed that part where you talked about burying a priest

Michael: No not that Wendy

Michael: Sorry

Carissa: And Alcien was fine, Lemon hated dealing with him too but he's barely a blip on the radar for Vee

Michael: Just super pissed at the priest guy

BOB Vee would push you to being touchy feely around his throat

Michael: LOLOLOL

Michael: With a Shank or three?

Carissa: I was going to say only after a shank.

Ratbone Carder: LOL

Spring (Ratbone Carder): OOC

Michael: Well, Lemon played it well. Stating "Reluctantly" was one of the funniest responses as a comeback

Gared Bizeveron: Good Morning everyone

Gared Bizeveron: I do hope you had a great night here

Michael: OH GOD. IT"S BEGUN!

Gared Bizeveron: How did you sleep/

Vee Barlett: grumbles loudly and throws a pillow at the door

Rothuss Carder: snores

Gared Bizeveron: Ah AH AH, you will want that later

Gared Bizeveron: Picks up the pillow and SMACKS Vee over the head with it

Ratbone Carder: uhnnnnfffffg

Temperance: stretches and opens her notebook

Vee Barlett: Fuck you, P.... Oh, who the hell are you?

Gared Bizeveron: You will be late for breakfast sleepy heads

Vee Barlett: sits up and rubs her eyes

Gared Bizeveron: today is waffle day

Jericho: Sits up slowly, slightly shellshocked

Jericho: Waffle day?

Jericho: Bewhildered

Gared Bizeveron: Bacon Sweet Waffles with eggs the way you want

Gared Bizeveron: But you have to move if you want them

Vee Barlett: Waffles good I suppose. Fine.

Gared Bizeveron: The line forms early

Jericho: Grunts and stands up.

Vee Barlett: yawns and gets up to dress and wash her face

Jericho: Grunts and stands up.

Gared Bizeveron: and Mango juice

Jericho: Bacon

Ratbone Carder: oooooo mango!

Vee Barlett: No rum?

Gared Bizeveron: with fresh coconut ice cream shavings for those that have done all their chores

Gared Bizeveron: No rum, that is for downhill people

Michael (Jericho): that's classist

Vee Barlett: Man, I thought hell was below not up high...

Jericho: Coughs

Temperance: walks out, twirling her pen in her hand

Ratbone Carder: downhill people sound like my kind of people

Jericho: Trying to supress a laugh

Vee Barlett: Whatever. I do like coconut ice cream and we deserve at least a gallon of that.

Jericho: Reaches into pack. Tosses jar at Vee

Jericho: Bad batch. But, it'll do for you

Vee Barlett: debates and puts it in her pack

Michael (Jericho): (You can thank crappy brewing rolls)

BOB As you slowly begrudgingly make your way out and down to the second level

Vee Barlett: Bad batch how? Make someone sick?

Jericho: Too strong

Vee Barlett: No such thing. I might got use for this later, though...

BOB The aromas are very enticing

Rothuss Carder: snores

BOB Bacon sizzling, warm cooked dough of waffles then sugar sprinkled on top

Temperance: knocks on Rothuss' door as she passes

Michael (Jericho): It's a trap!

Michael (Jericho): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol Food Trap

BOB Glasses of water and mango juice

Vee Barlett: grabs as much of all of it as she can get

Rothuss Carder: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Jericho: Does the same

Ratbone Carder: wet willies her brother

Temperance: blinks at the speed the food is disappearing

BOB Near the end is a large block of ice, with a large bowl carved out of it, in there is shaved ice small wooden scoops

Rothuss Carder: nnghaa! *flails*

Ratbone Carder: dies laughing

Ratbone Carder: that never gets old!

BOB and obviously yes the ice and such is a very strange thing for those from the coast

Michael (Jericho): And this time period

Rothuss Carder: throws a badly aimed backhand at her leg.

Michael (Jericho): unless I"m mistaken

Vee Barlett: takes multiple scoops

Temperance: observes the block of ice with interest

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: GRWWWA snatches a handful of bacon slaps it between two waffles and walks out

Ratbone Carder: jumps away

Jericho: Eyes it critically

Jericho: How was this constructed?

Gared Bizeveron: Fiolx! You need to do your chores!

Temperance: Somehow it was kept cold enough to keep it in shape.

Temperance: shrugs her shoulders

Spring (Ratbone Carder): how do you even pronounce that?

Gared Bizeveron: Looks over at Jericho, what was that question?

TMO (Rothuss Carder): (my grandfather operated an ice shop in San Francisco many decades ago)

Jericho: This ice thing

Spring (Ratbone Carder): is the L silent? or the N?

BOB and now I see that Michael and Wendy need to add their titles to their character sheets

Jericho: How did you do this?

Spring (Ratbone Carder): wait, no N

Michael (Jericho): (Ah, I did forget that bob. Do we choose that or was it assigned to us)

wyjyoon (Temperance): I wasn't really aware I had to add a title, whoops

BOB You were assigned a title back in the previous story arc

BOB and yes to Temperance not having a good one but you are a First Circle priest

BOB Sorry Second Circle

Carissa (Vee Barlett): hahaha suckers now you have to introduce yourself with a ton of titles

BOB see

Jericho: Keeps marveling at the ice.

Jericho: Coconut?

Michael (Jericho): (I'm not introducing myself)

Michael (Jericho): (win win)

Vee Barlett: Weird question, but okay.

Vee Barlett: goes and stuffs her face.

Jericho: Sigh

Gared Bizeveron: Coconut shaved into the ice that we grind up

Jericho: Sigh

Jericho: This is cool

Jericho: no pun intended

Gared Bizeveron: Nice pun

Jericho: Where did you get the ice?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ALWAYS

Jericho: Smiles

Gared Bizeveron: All puns are intended

Carissa (Vee Barlett): YES

Jericho: chuckels despite himself

Gared Bizeveron: Why would you not take credit for that

Jericho: Too much time with Vee. She might slap me

Jericho: snickers

Temperance: takes a bite of a waffle

Jericho: But this is so creative!

Rothuss Carder: looks around.

Jericho: Eyes Vee with Glee

Rothuss Carder: why am I awake?

Jericho: I just had a wonderful terrible idea

Gared Bizeveron: Would that be a Vee Slap? or a Slap V?

Temperance: If you don't need food you could go back to sleep?

Jericho: Ponders

Ratbone Carder: I think breakfast

Jericho: Well, if we need to name it...

Rothuss Carder: Food? Okay..

Ratbone Carder: and then chores? i think

Jericho: I'd call it a V-Slap

Rothuss Carder: Chores? Is Mom here?

Temperance: Some of these things at the table are interesting.

Rothuss Carder: grumbling, pulls on a shirt.

Gared Bizeveron: Only the chores you think you need to do to deserve breakfast

Jericho: Cocks head

Jericho: Interesting

Vee Barlett: Did them all yesterday.

Jericho: Rothuss, I think you are in the clear for breakfast and the next years breakfast, but that's a personal opinion

Jericho: Smiles warmly

Jericho: You were a hero the last couple days

Gared Bizeveron: Are you staying that long?

Jericho: Jerks head

Vee Barlett: chokes on her food slightly but decides not to say anything

Jericho: Oh sorry Gared. No that I'm aware of

Gared Bizeveron: We get people who need weeks and months here at the Church

Vee Barlett: Who you anyways?

Lirtimya: Stretches and starts to eat the food

Gared Bizeveron: Others who only stay the night

Jericho: Months?

Jericho: Can you tell us about this enclace Gared?

Rothuss Carder: Food. numm...

Jericho: I'm slowly learning the world isn't black and white and so many of us have our own sorts of customs

Rothuss Carder: pulls some food onto a plate zombie-like.

Gared Bizeveron: The Church of the Mists is the last welcoming home on this side of the mountains

Michael (Jericho): that's stolen from rivendale bob

Michael (Jericho): lol

Vee Barlett: If being shot at with three arrows is welcomin' then...

Temperance: wipes her hands on a napkin and scribbles some notes in the pages

Gared Bizeveron: The downhill people need us to help protect them, the wilderness comes to us for civilization

Ratbone Carder: chows down enthusistically

Gared Bizeveron: You earned three arrows?

Gared Bizeveron: I knew you were dangerous people

Vee Barlett: Pfft.

Vee Barlett: Ain't y'all fortune tellers or somethin'?

Temperance: raises an eyebrow in interest

Gared Bizeveron: Some are

Gared Bizeveron: I can get one for you later on if you want

Jericho: Gared, I don't know how to say this nicely, but after the last couple of days, I don't kinow how anyone is able to get up here at all. Between the mountain slide and.....horros below the mountain...Honestly, I think it's a miracle we got here at all

Rothuss Carder: Yeah, we're so very ... very.... *zones out sleepily*

Vee Barlett: Yep, would love on.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): *one

Vee Barlett: Make this trip somewhat worthwhile. Fortunes are fun.

Gared Bizeveron: Not many like that

Jericho: I mean that respectfully of course Gared. I just...this seems more like a dangerous visitation then a safe haven

Gared Bizeveron: Knowing your future can make it come true

Jericho: Then, I don't want to know mine

Jericho: Shudders

Vee Barlett: If ya believe in it, sure.

Jericho: Afraid of what I might see. Whispers

Temperance: furrows her eyebrows thoughtfully

Lirtimya: Knowing your future or not, it'll always come, it may change, but it'll still happen, time passes

Gared Bizeveron: So what are you all doing here? if you think this is a dangerous place why did you come?

Jericho: Oh

Carissa (Vee Barlett): jerks thumb at Jericho

Vee Barlett: jerks thumb at Jericho

Gared Bizeveron: See the young lady knows

Jericho: Well.....my...friends

Jericho: Were kind of...

Jericho: Conscripted

Jericho: to escort me here and to find out why supplies had not arrived, and escort them back

Jericho: I....wouldn't have made it without them

Jericho: Slightly red

Gared Bizeveron: What supplies are you looking for?

Rothuss Carder: ... dangerous!

Michael (Jericho): We are looking for (I wrote it down dammit. one sec)

Michael (Jericho): (in a paranoid fueled rage)

Rothuss Carder: shakes his head..

Michael (Jericho): (one sec)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Take your time, all good : )

Michael (Jericho): Searching my one note)

Michael (Jericho): (STALL)

Michael (Jericho): (LOL)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): they never told us

wyjyoon (Temperance): Wasn't one of them rugs?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh nvm

Michael (Jericho): (I think they did actually)

Vee Barlett: Somethin' for the Temple of Orange Sunsets.

Vee Barlett: Brewin' stuff, I think?

Namyriitha Holiilo: (sails into the room with a long scroll in her hand) Hello there my sweets,

Vee Barlett: shrugs and eats another piece of bacon

Namyriitha Holiilo: I have the list of chores ready

Namyriitha Holiilo: what are you able to do?

Temperance: blinks at the length of the scroll

Vee Barlett: Supervise.

Temperance: Lots of writing.

Namyriitha Holiilo: Excellent, what you can be assigned to is the fish pond

Namyriitha Holiilo: There are lots of spawning going on

Vee Barlett: I.... huh, wait fish pond? Now that be interestin'

Namyriitha Holiilo: we need someone to superivse all the fish to make sure they are NOT gobbling up the wrong thing

Vee Barlett: Literal fish pond or yellin' at sparrin' acolytes? Or both?

Namyriitha Holiilo: If you catch my drift

Namyriitha Holiilo: winks

Namyriitha Holiilo: Very glad you are volunteering for that

Vee Barlett: Can do. Seems like a good way to kill time 'til we get goin'

Michael (Jericho): Ah! I found it

Michael (Jericho): One sec

Namyriitha Holiilo: most people feel a bit icky watching fish spurt out like that

Vee Barlett: Most people got weak stomachs and constitutions.

Namyriitha Holiilo: (adds Vee's name to her list)

Temperance: I'd like some accounts if you see anything interesting, Vee.

Michael (Jericho): It is specifically ingredients. Looking for the name

Vee Barlett: Sure, Brains.

Namyriitha Holiilo: When you finish breakfast go report to the head farmer, he is up river about 40 yards

Vee Barlett: Can I swim it?

Looks her up and down

Namyriitha Holiilo: No

Vee Barlett: Darn.

Namyriitha Holiilo: You are not strong enough

Vee Barlett: Not yet.

Namyriitha Holiilo: Maybe in the summer but not in the spring

Vee Barlett: Stupid freshwater...

Temperance: chuckles a bit at Vee's grumbling

Namyriitha Holiilo: Looking over the rest of the group

Namyriitha Holiilo: Who can help with the digging?

Temperance: continues to scribble notes in her notebook

Carissa (Vee Barlett): points at Rothuss

Vee Barlett: points at Rothuss

Ratbone Carder: looks at her 6 STR arms .....

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Michael (Jericho): I knew it was something sinister. We have to bring back a literal body part. And ensure it is dead

wyjyoon (Temperance): Wait what

Carissa (Vee Barlett): I thought she was joking about you and your body part if we let you die

Rothuss Carder: is staring blankly at the piece of waffle held in his hand.

Jericho: Her's the full thing. Verified with Site: I would like you to bring back a body part so we can assertain that he really is dead Jericho: I didn't mean to rope my friends into this Jericho: eyes Vee and Matty worridly Matthias Crowtooth: Do you care which body part? Jericho: What...if he's not dead? Hilde Finn - Mistress of the fourth circle, believer of sunsets, greeter of the sunrise, tangled as the mangrove, depth of the banyan root: Jericho needs to go to the Church of the Mists and they will tell him where the supplies are he is supposed to bring back

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and right before that they said they'd be fine if you died because we didn't help you

Michael (Jericho): Ah

Namyriitha Holiilo: I have baking and grinding to do also

Michael (Jericho): Then yeah just asking for supplies

Vee Barlett: Y'all speak up or I'm gonna volunteer you for the worst tasks.

Michael (Jericho): Please don't take a body part of mine back

Michael (Jericho): lol

Jericho: Namyriitha?

Lirtimya: I can do baking.

Jericho: Do you by any chance have something that involves....numbers?

Namyriitha Holiilo: Excellent, your name young lady?

Lirtimya: Lirtimya

Namyriitha Holiilo: Numbers? there is accounting but that is taken

Vee Barlett: Wait, why'd you know my name but not hers?

Namyriitha Holiilo: Thank you Lirtimya

Temperance: I can try grinding the ingredients.

Ratbone Carder: i can handle animals. got animal chores? beyond the fish spawning?

Michael (Jericho): well yeah. you are infamous

Namyriitha Holiilo: I have heard several of the cleaners complaining about you Vee

Rothuss Carder: Yours is just one letter....

Temperance: shrugs her shoulders as she continues to scribble

Vee Barlett: I ain't tell any of themmy name.

Rothuss Carder: yawns

Michael (Jericho): I've called you by name a few times...

Rothuss Carder: yawns

Jericho: I've called you by name a few times...

Namyriitha Holiilo: I think your friends were

Jericho: easy enough to overhere I guess

Temperance: I can also do writing if there's anything that needs to be written.

Vee Barlett: Well I hope I gave them cleaners job security.

Namyriitha Holiilo: Ohh looking at Ratbone, I can use someone who can clean the bird coop

Vee Barlett: grumbles and eats the rest of her food

Namyriitha Holiilo: I am not certain, Vee can you write?

Namyriitha Holiilo: Or do you need someone to take notes for your records?

Ratbone Carder: nods

Vee Barlett: Better left to Brains.

Vee Barlett: Or First Matey.

Ratbone Carder: Ratbone Carder. Bird coop. On it.

Namyriitha Holiilo: Thank you dear

Temperance: Let me know if you see any interesting birds, Ratbone.

Temperance: Let me know if you see any interesting birds, Ratbone!

Namyriitha Holiilo: Who wants to go out into the hills to look for mushrooms? Would you like that Jericho?

Lirtimya: Finishes her meal

Jericho: ........

Jericho: PTDS

Ratbone Carder: nods to Temperance

Jericho: PTSD

Michael (Jericho): lol

Vee Barlett: Levi and Temp know plants best.

Temperance: perks up at the idea of mushrooms

Jericho: If you require it, I will go

Jericho: Nods

Rothuss Carder: Mushrooms? We already found the most interesting ones of those, didn't we?

Temperance: We did find ones that glow, I believe.

Temperance: flips through her copious pages of notes

Rothuss Carder: nods

Rothuss Carder: and punch

Namyriitha Holiilo: Glow? do they cook themselves?

Temperance: nods back

Vee Barlett: If we see those again, I wanna grab some.

Namyriitha Holiilo: that might be interesting

Namyriitha Holiilo: save on a cook

Namyriitha Holiilo: toss them into a pot

'Lemon' connected

Namyriitha Holiilo: OH do you think they boil the water on their own?

Temperance: I could go with Jericho for those mushrooms, unless you want me to stay and write.

Namyriitha Holiilo: no firewood needed

BOB Hello Lemon

Michael (Jericho): Hey Lemon!

Rothuss Carder: I... didn't see any kitchens down there...

BOB they are just volunteering Levi to go look for mushrooms

Temperance: I'm not sure, they stuck to our feet and continued glowing for a while.

Michael (Jericho): Who's this WE stuff?

Michael (Jericho): You got a mouse in your pocket?

Agap Pankin: Namyriitha you cannot take all the workers for the day

Lemon (Levi Reed): hello friends!

Carissa (Vee Barlett): hi lemon!

Agap Pankin: Can any of you swim?

Michael (Jericho): oh god! It's another!

Jericho: Points at Vee

wyjyoon (Temperance): Hello Lemon! : )

Jericho: She would love nothing more

Namyriitha Holiilo: I have them working already

Spring (Ratbone Carder): hi Lemon!

Agap Pankin: I need two people who can swim

Vee Barlett: Wait wait, but what's the swimmin' thing? More interestin' than fish?

Ratbone Carder: i can swim but i'm on bird duty

TMO (Rothuss Carder): brb - the dog is basically climbing into my lap seeking attention because no one else ever pays him any.

User has gone AFK. (TMO)

Spring (Ratbone Carder): LOL TMO mine too!

Michael (Jericho): (That means the dog loves you TMO)

Agap Pankin: I will tie a rope to you and you go down under the church and clean the slime off the bottom of the sluice

Michael (Jericho): (Humanity does not deserve dogs)

Spring (Ratbone Carder): Sophie is making me crazy trying to get my hands off the keyboard

Jericho: I'm sorry what now?

Vee Barlett: Eh, fish sounds better for once. At least they conversationalist.

Vee Barlett: And I ain't doin' no chuch cleanin' duties.

Jericho: And free of dangerous potentially evil mushroom creatures

Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm sorry, why are they trying to get us to do their dirty work?

Michael (Jericho): (Because they see an easy mark)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Price for breakfast

BOB brb doorbell

Michael (Jericho): (And all their priests are now plant people)

Spring (Ratbone Carder): they gave us breakfast. it's a trade

Carissa (Vee Barlett): we're eating their food and have nothing else to do yet until we get those supplies and our reports in

Jericho: (I knew the cookie was poisoined!)

Lemon (Levi Reed): That's some bullshit. We just cleaned out a bunch of fungus monsters

Michael (Jericho): (I knew the cookie was poisoined!)

Michael (Jericho): You can tell them that. Jericho will back you

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee agreed but then they said she can hang out with fish so she was okay with it

Michael (Jericho): But at the same time

Michael (Jericho): Possibly free training and money?

Ratbone Carder: yeah no, i'm not doing the sluice. i'm doing the bird poo

Ratbone Carder: in fact i think you need professionals to do the sluice

Vee Barlett: And people who ain't just been in a cave for too long. Just askin' to give them nightmares.

Levi Reed: None of that sounds very appealing, considering we were just under your church and several of us almost died a couple of times clearing out an army of pod-plant-people for you

Jericho: And we won't be able to stay for long. We were sent specifically to ask for supplies to return to the Temple of Orange Sunsets. We are required to be back at the end of this month and ahead of schedule if possible

Agap Pankin: Well that is easy, we need 12 people to go dig out the landslide that is blocking the path downhill

Agap Pankin: Points to Jericho

Agap Pankin: You are one

Levi Reed: Now THAT one I can do

Jericho: Nods

Agap Pankin: Who else will help

Michael (Jericho): (All of us)

Michael (Jericho): (LOL)

Vee Barlett: I'll stick with fish.

Michael (Jericho): (Unless you want to take a few days to get to know the locals)

Michael (Jericho): (Also not a bad idea)

Namyriitha Holiilo: Points to Rothuss He volunteers

Ratbone Carder: looks at her 6 STR arms again

Lemon (Levi Reed): The locals at a church? No thanks.

Agap Pankin: Excellent, that is two

Jericho: Rothuss! Did you gain telepathy?

Levi Reed: Also me

Levi Reed: Hello

Temperance: I could try to help with that, but I'm much better at writing.

Agap Pankin: a Third very good

Namyriitha Holiilo: She is writing with that one, points to Vee

Agap Pankin: Fine

Agap Pankin: points to

Namyriitha Holiilo: Nope she is baking

Agap Pankin: Points to Melange

Namyriitha Holiilo: Sure take him, he is quiet

Vee Barlett: Yeah, he can go. He's stupid strong.

Agap Pankin: Then....

Agap Pankin: looking around

Vee Barlett: Like three people in one.

Agap Pankin: I

Michael (Jericho): (Hey guys, I just had a crazy idea! Let's form our own religion, and boss people around if they partake of our food. Imagine the hijinks we could get up to!)

Levi Reed: cries in "missing MeLange"

Agap Pankin: well let's go

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Jericho: Grunts in mock weary resignation

Jericho: Let's move a mountain I guess

Levi Reed: looks at Jericho suspiciously

Jericho: I never hsoul dhave given it up

Jericho: Sighs

Jericho: Sighs

BOB Who remembers the building rules?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): First apply for a permit with the city...

Jericho: Vaguely. We are gonna be at this for awhile

Michael (Jericho): We can use magic right?

Michael (Jericho): I THINK!!!

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes

Spring (Ratbone Carder): I remember that there ARE some building rules

Michael (Jericho): I have the construction guide in .pdf around here

Spring (Ratbone Carder): we used em for some roads

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and elves suck at mining but I don't remember (or want to remember?) the rest

Michael (Jericho): This is rock right bob? No wood?

BOB Spells per level plus levels

Lemon (Levi Reed): I though we were just moving rocks

BOB correct dirt and rock

Michael (Jericho): then yes, we are doing stone rules...

wyjyoon (Temperance): Listening because I have no idea

Levi Reed: What kind of rules? Can't we just shovel and haul it away over to the side of the road or something

Michael (Jericho): Bob, I don't want to read this entire guide again. Weeps. But I will if you need. Can I tell you stats and we go from there? Might be quicker

Michael (Jericho): (Big .pdf file)

Lemon (Levi Reed): ooc

Carissa (Vee Barlett): the rules determine how fast that'll happen

BOB So Ratbone, Vee, Temperance, and Lirt are off doing things

Michael (Jericho): So....let bob figure out the rules and I fee him stats?

Michael (Jericho): :D

Carissa (Vee Barlett): might be on the building dragon fen page

Lemon (Levi Reed): wait are you talking about Math?

Lemon (Levi Reed): Because no thank you

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes

Jericho: unfortuatnely....yes

Michael (Jericho): unfortuatnely....yes

Lemon (Levi Reed): TMO's time to shine

Michael (Jericho): Where's TMO when you need him. He eats these damn problems

Michael (Jericho): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol

BOB Need to know a number of man weeks. It is based on the number of levels PLUS the spells for each spell caster, which is Jericho, so the number of spells he can cast

BOB 3 first level spells is 3 3 first level spells plus 1 2nd level spell is 5

Michael (Jericho): Are we going with "level 4 (level up))" Spells? Or his level 3 spells

BOB so this is Michael's math moment

BOB He only has 1st and 2nd level spells

Michael (Jericho): RIght now, he has no spells because he hasn't meditated

Michael (Jericho): Can we gloss over that?

BOB when he gets to 5th level he gets 3rd level spells

BOB yes you have meditated this morning everyone is at full HP and full spells

Vee Barlett: Heroic Characters Both player characters and higher level NPCs can augment the work force considerably. This is due primarily to their greater experience and worldliness, as well as their generally higher determination. After all, these special people have proven themselves to be far more than just the average citizen, otherwise they wouldn't be heroes! As a rule, any non-magic using character will be able to do the work of one man for every level that he or she has attained. For example, a 6th level thief can do the work of six normal laborers. It is assumed that the thief need not be an actual part of the work force, but is acting in a supporting role by obtaining good prices for items and making sure that the local bandits and crime syndicates do not interfere with the project. Characters who are able to use magic can be of tremendous help when it comes to building a castle. After all, consider the benefits of a stone shape spell or a wish spell when construction is in progress. In order to simplify matters, any spell using character who is a part of the construction force counts as one laborer for each level that they have attained. In addition, they count for one man for each spell level that they can cast in a given day. Be sure to include any bonus spells for wisdom that a priest might be entitled to. For example, a 5th level wizard would be able to do the work of 16 men. He counts as five men because of his basic level. In addition, he can throw four 1st level spells in a day (which counts as four more workers), two 2nd level spells (which counts as four more workers), and one 3rd level spell (which counts as three workers).

Michael (Jericho): Then I have currently...Two Level 2 Spells. Three Level 1 Spells. And is currently Level 3. Let me check chart to verify

BOB you are seriously underestimating again Michael

BOB look at your character sheet

Michael (Jericho): Sorry I'm not trying to

Michael (Jericho): I'm looking at Site

BOB 6 first level spells 4 second level spells

Michael (Jericho): Let me check sheet

Michael (Jericho): Wiat wait wait what?

Michael (Jericho): Have I been handicapping myself???

BOB high wisdom bonus etc

Michael (Jericho): I thought I had 3 level 1 spells. And two level 2 spells... Are you saying, I had a literal arsenal of spells left in the cave... WEEPS IN SAD

BOB also thank you Carissa for that quote

Michael (Jericho): Please let me write this down

Vee Barlett: Priest without bonuses have that amount, but the more WIS the more spell slots you gain: (LINK)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, no sense in dwelling on it. Just think how useful this will be in the future, instead!

Michael (Jericho): Yep

Michael (Jericho): Good to know I have more healing now lol

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: Who the hell cares what fish think? You need to scoop that spawn out

Vee Barlett: Sure but whatcha gonna do with it?

Michael (Jericho): So, that is the story of how Fiolx, was found dead in a pool of blood, being nibbled by fish

Vee Barlett : [Translation] Yeah, that.

<font color="#000000">Yeah, that.

[understood by: Vee Barlett]

Temperance: Communicating with fish is her line of specialty, so no, I rely on her to translate.

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: What communicating is there? they swim, they spawn, they die

Vee Barlett: So again, what are we doin' here? Whatcha tryin' to accomplish?

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: How complicated is it?

Lemon (Levi Reed): Idk, I talk to my food pretty frequently

Vee Barlett: You breath, you eat, you die.

Lemon (Levi Reed): It just doesn't talk back

Vee Barlett: Don't mean ya ain't got thoughts although...

Michael (Jericho): LOL Lemon!

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: Are you a witch?

Vee Barlett: Nah, just love the sea.

Vee Barlett: Been called somethin' similar before, though.

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: A mermaid?

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: I heard they can walk on land until they get someone to kiss them

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: I ain't kissing no witch

Vee Barlett: Mermaid ain't rhyme with witch but I do kinda wish I was one, yeah.

Vee Barlett: What happens to the one they kiss?

Temperance: raises an eyebrow at the conversation about mermaids.

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: I ain't never heard anything good about them

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: Only going into the ocean

Lemon (Levi Reed): Well we've never heard anything good about Fiolx so...

Vee Barlett: What?

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: Mermaids are in the ocean right?

Vee Barlett: I mean, yeah, they're in the ocean but what happens to the one they kiss?

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: and Sirens are in the lake?

Michael (Jericho): Stay focused man!

Vee Barlett: Sirens I know live in the ocean, but some might live in freshwater, maybe.

Temperance: glances down at the fish in the water.

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: Gestures up stream, Up in the mountains, the lakes up there are full of sirens

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: If you steal their furr they are yours

Vee Barlett: Good to know. Glad I got me some wax.

Ratbone Carder: That's silkies

Vee Barlett: Hmm, well that's good to know but ya really don't wanna be answer my question about mermaids do ya?

Ratbone Carder: Sirens are the other things

Michael (Jericho): Selkies right?

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: I just need you to scoop up that spawn

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: put it in that bucket

Vee Barlett: But. Why.

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: and we take it up over the waterfall to the next pool

Michael (Jericho): Still good to know. Sirens or Selkies, we know why this is the last friendly house this side of the mountains

Spring (Ratbone Carder): yep spelled that way too

Michael (Jericho): Go up further and you'll run into those

Vee Barlett: That the baby pond?

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: Yeah then they grow up

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: and go back down stream to the ocean

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: and them come back in a few years

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: and we spawn them again

Vee Barlett: Fine. But next time, if ya don't know an answer to a question, you can just say that, ya know. Not pretend ya don't hear me.

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: I thought you were a witch and talked to them all the time

Lemon (Levi Reed): Seems like they do the spawning themselves, but ok

Vee Barlett: No shame in not knowin' everything.

Vee Barlett: ALL the time? Nah, fish are fine but not the best for conversations.

Vee Barlett: Dolphins and whales are fun.

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: How much could they know?

Michael (Jericho): They know how to eat you and let you know that

Vee Barlett: Clearly FAR more than you.

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol, burrrrn

Michael (Jericho): Vee is just making friends left and right

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: Go down there and get that spawn

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Lol

Fiolx of Crazy Arrow Tribe: the water is cold

BOB and the rest are doing math

Carissa (Vee Barlett): HAHAHA SUCKERS

Michael (Jericho): (Level 14 for base level plus all spells on Jericho for earth mover at a 753B Haul Truck)

BOB but for the group of you?

Michael (Jericho): I can do mine, not sure the others

Michael (Jericho): If no other spells casters, then what's all yall levels

Michael (Jericho): Take the number and add to mine

Michael (Jericho): All level 4...right?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I think levels are on the training page, right?

BOB is on the party sheet

Michael (Jericho): Then I will pull that up

Michael (Jericho): standby

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Rothuss is 5 I thnk

TMO (Rothuss Carder): yes

Michael (Jericho): Levi is here?

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I'm level 4

Lemon (Levi Reed): 4

Michael (Jericho): so 27

Michael (Jericho): oh sorry

Michael (Jericho): 23 then

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Rothuss, Levi, Melange, and you

Michael (Jericho): Melange is anyone know?

Michael (Jericho): I'm still pulling up

wyjyoon (Temperance): I think he's 4 right?

Michael (Jericho): Melange is...

wyjyoon (Temperance): It says level 4 fighter on the training page

wyjyoon (Temperance): shrugs

Michael (Jericho): Hm. Bob? Where o nthe party sheet would that be?

Michael (Jericho): I see Inventory, Order, etcetera, but can't see the actual level of people

BOB image in Discord

Michael (Jericho): Ah. I don't have that tab bob

BOB Main Yab

Michael (Jericho): I get an error

wyjyoon (Temperance): I get taken straight to inventory

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yeah it doesn't list levels for us

Michael (Jericho): Discrod pic

BOB Huh

Michael (Jericho): Sorry. I was frantically like. WHERE IS IT! Lol

BOB Ok then

Michael (Jericho): So according to your picture, he is level 4

BOB Yes Melange is 4

Michael (Jericho): So, back to 27 :)

Michael (Jericho): Thank you for posting the pic

wyjyoon (Temperance): We figured it out : )

Michael (Jericho): Teamwork!

BOB so the four of you are worth 27 man weeks worth of work

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yay you aren't worthless!

Michael (Jericho): WEEKS? I thought it was days? I missed htat

wyjyoon (Temperance): whispers what are "man weeks"

TMO (Rothuss Carder): 0.8 woman weeks each

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol ouchhh

BOB and there are 28 weeks worth of work to do, you have three other workers with you. so after 1 week you have cleared the roadway of the rubble, conviently filling in the front of that cave opening

BOB and LOL Tmo

Michael (Jericho): In Plant Maintenance (No pun intended) (Also watch yourself TMO HR Is listening lol), a man week is 8 hours, for however many shifts. Typically, at a mine stie would be 40 hours. So a man-week is 40 hours. No idea here though

TMO (Rothuss Carder): just to explain for the less mathy, that was a compliment to the ladies.

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol tmo

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (yes pay difference)

Michael (Jericho): Not touching this with a ten foot pole

wyjyoon (Temperance): So just work weeks then?

BOB BUT in any case it take one full week to clear the roadway for people to be able to head downhill

Michael (Jericho): in the real world, that is a man week

Michael (Jericho): and woman week

Michael (Jericho): (We still for our deadline bob? I'm sorry, THAT is one aspect I forgot. Must be back end of month)

TMO (Rothuss Carder): to explain further, the joke is that a woman only has to work 8 days to accomplish what a man does in 10

BOB The supplies have to be there, no one said YOU had to be there

Michael (Jericho): (Oh)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, not where I thougth you were going with it, but that's also a good one

Michael (Jericho): (Sigh)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): that's the joke? I thought it was that a woman only gets paid about $0.8 cents to a man's $1

Carissa (Vee Barlett): but that also works

Michael (Jericho): Actually, bob. Now I'm concerned. I posted above. It does say "He" Needs to bring back?

TMO (Rothuss Carder): the pay difference thing is the inspiration of the joke, but I was not going to denigrate women, so I flipped it

Michael (Jericho): He as in Jericho

Michael (Jericho): Please tell me I'm not insane

Michael (Jericho): Please?

Michael (Jericho): I'd love to do more stuff here if I can get away with it

Levi Reed: What more stuff?

Lemon (Levi Reed): ooc

Carissa (Vee Barlett): sounds probable

Carissa (Vee Barlett): fortune tellingggg

Michael (Jericho): (the supplies for Chruch of Orange Sunset)

BOB It is that He has to get the supplies back

Michael (Jericho): He....who?

Lemon (Levi Reed): But also, yeah, we've only been here for like a week and two days? And it only took like two days to get here?

Michael (Jericho): OH!

BOB if you do not take them your self you can just let them travel

Michael (Jericho): Okay. WHEW!

Michael (Jericho): Then yeah, I'm fine with that

wyjyoon (Temperance): Will they disappear like the rest of the 17 priests?

BOB and here is where we discuss training for people

Carissa (Vee Barlett): send them with a note so they make sure they know it's thanks to you

BOB Temperance needs spell training

Michael (Jericho): (Thanks to Rothuss, Lirt, Vee, and a whole bunch of others. Privately, they can kiss my ass)

BOB That has to happen at a church

BOB there is a LOT of thief training

Michael (Jericho): (Jericho feels terrible for the trouble he brought on you. BUT, we did make out like bandits, so....yeah :) )

Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh look we're "at a church"

BOB you will want a wise thief to do that

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Vee Barlett: haven't met one of those yet... or ever....

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooc

Michael (Jericho): A wise thief huh

Michael (Jericho): ;)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Quick Jericho pretend you're a thief with your high wisdom stats

BOB And you have WP and NWP open for several people

Michael (Jericho): Theif is wisdome stat?

Michael (Jericho): I did NOT know that!

Michael (Jericho): Can I dual class?

Vee Barlett: Yo, Lirt. Think you can teach me them weather patterns when we got a quiet moment? I think I almost got it down.

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Rothuss has a 9 Wis! That's .... "average"

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (aka weather sense)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Don't think so, but he said a wise thief, so : D

Michael (Jericho): LOL

TMO (Rothuss Carder): no, training is a wisdom thing

BOB You can Dual Class if you have a high score in the primary stat for your new Class and it takes months/year to learn the new class

Lirtimya: Of course Cap'n

Michael (Jericho): Wait. Hold the phone. Bob you serious?

Michael (Jericho): You allow that?

Vee Barlett: Awesome, matey. Teacher like you, I know I'll get it down finally.

Michael (Jericho): I thought only Bards were like that in 2.0

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (miranda was a priest who went mage)

Michael (Jericho): huh

Michael (Jericho): Not important now, but interesting

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (and I think Craigh was a mage/thief)

BOB Yes, humans can dual class you give up your existing class and switch to a new one, BUT Jericho has a 7 dex and would need to somehow boost that to a 16 to become a thief

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (go play BG1 again and you can do all the multiclasses)

Michael (Jericho): Oh I'm sorry bob. I misunderstood

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Lirtimya: I'm glad you have such confidence in my skills

Michael (Jericho): I meant have BOTH classes. Not forfeight one LOL

Vee Barlett: First Matey for a reason!

Michael (Jericho): I got you now.

Michael (Jericho): :)

TMO (Rothuss Carder): dual class is giving up current to start a new one. multi-class is two classes at the same time

BOB Levi is the only one who MIGHT be able to dual class

TMO (Rothuss Carder): humans can't multi, only dual

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Kel was thief/fighter and dual classes

wyjyoon (Temperance): In terms of spells, am I training for specific ones or do I get to choose as long as they fit the amount for 1st and 2nd level spells?

Michael (Jericho): Thank you TMO. Wrong thought process/terminology on my part

Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm happy with what I am, tyvm

Carissa (Vee Barlett): not specific one, just access to the next level via the church

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh ok, cool beans, thanks Carissa :)

BOB Wendy you would be training to learn how to cast 2nd level spells, then suddenly they all appear in your abiliites

Carissa (Vee Barlett): your god chooses for you :P

wyjyoon (Temperance): Okie dokes :)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Also, Levi has no training, so he's just going to chill at the church while everyone else trains, yes?

Michael (Jericho): The Red God maybe

Carissa (Vee Barlett): apparently he has one WP?

BOB Levi has a Weapon slot open

TMO (Rothuss Carder): somewhere in here, Ratbone and Rothuss *might* get a random spell inspiration, totally up to Bob if it happens.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Bob says he double checked the training page so....

BOB Yes to TMO

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Does Ratbone have her first spell?

Spring (Ratbone Carder): No.

Lemon (Levi Reed): No, Levi used both his WP and NWP for botany

BOB Not yet because spring was not here, but here at the Church of the Mists and all the visitors there is a very good chance of learning something

Spring (Ratbone Carder): Nice.

BOB Levi earn another WP at 4th level

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, then I want knives

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Yeah I'm not questioning that since Vee apparently did, too, lol

BOB Yes

BOB Knowing what you want to learn is a key thing

BOB I have a place and a trainer for you to go to for the next story arc

Lemon (Levi Reed): All I have for close up is punching and I want something a little bit sharper. After that I think I'm just going to hoard them until something good comes along

BOB that involved thieves learning things

wyjyoon (Temperance): More people that can shank, yay

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Weather Sense for NWP for Vee (from Lirt), WP.... not sure yet.

TMO (Rothuss Carder): We are .... The Shankers!

BOB so next question you have been here 1 week

BOB the Dragonshankers

Michael (Jericho): The Dragon Shanker Society

Lemon (Levi Reed): lollllll

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): LOL

BOB You have been here one week, do you want to stay and get Temperance some training as well, stay for X number of weeks

Spring (Ratbone Carder): Looking at the training page

BOB Then head into the next story arc for the Carder siblings?

Lemon (Levi Reed): Sounds ok to me

Michael (Jericho): I want everyone to get training while they can

Michael (Jericho): BUT

Spring (Ratbone Carder): Well we don't want to be late for Jericho's appointment

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes definitely want temp to have more spells

Michael (Jericho): I do want to point out something that interested me on the site

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and anyone who can do training while we're waiting for her

Lemon (Levi Reed): Jericho doesn't have to go, just the supplies have to go

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Rothuss is currentiy in the middle of training one of his thief skills for an ungodly length of time

BOB Melange could be a good person to escort the supplies downhill to the Temple for you Jericho

User has gone AFK. (Spring)

Michael (Jericho): There was an interesting note about proficiencies that I personally have never come across in all my years with bob :) But, there is a note that by keeping an open proficienices, you may have opportunities to learn something unique...such as learning potions from a mermaid. Hint Hint. Not that bob would ever do that per se, but it IS written in the site. Just thought it would be interesting for Vee to know :)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (Send Matty! He came with us to the cave and needs to prove himself to the Temple!)

Michael (Jericho): I forgot to post that earlier Carissa. Sorry about that

Carissa (Vee Barlett): no worries but good to know

BOB That is also true Carissa

BOB Have you heard anything from Ryan Spring?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (I have hope Sharif might pop in, but I am losing hope for Ryan :( )

Lemon (Levi Reed): Wait, Ryan sprang from Spring?

BOB yes

Michael (Jericho): Not really. Flowers spring from spring

Lemon (Levi Reed): I need a family tree

Michael (Jericho): Actually...me to Lemon lol

Lemon (Levi Reed): But for reals, I do hope Ryan comes back.

Michael (Jericho): It would definitely be nice :)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Was Matthias the only rogue?

BOB TMO came from mapping, Carissa came from Science, Lemon came from Carissa, Michael came from Lisa, Wendy came from Lemon, JTom came from TMO.... and Spring is as close to an original as you can get

Michael (Jericho): I'm also going to miss Sharif alot too. He always made me laugh pretty much at a whim

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes

Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait where did Lisa come from?

Michael (Jericho): She predates history

Michael (Jericho): She is above all

BOB Lisa and Sharif came from me

Michael (Jericho): :D

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Spring predates but Lisa is close

Lemon (Levi Reed): So Spring sprang from BOB?

BOB Spring predates everyone

Michael (Jericho): WOW

Vee Barlett: except Bob

Michael (Jericho): SPRING!

Michael (Jericho): I LEARNED SOMETHING NEW!

Michael (Jericho): I DID NOT KNOW THAT!

BOB She played at my old house with us

Carissa (Vee Barlett): LOL thought you guys knew that

Michael (Jericho): Bows. I'm in presence of ROYALTY

Lemon (Levi Reed): Dang, all this time Spring has been OG

Carissa (Vee Barlett): this is why Spring Eternal or whatever that saying is

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Spring Springs Eternal?

Lemon (Levi Reed): And they're not even here to see the gossip!

Michael (Jericho): YEAH SPRING! WHY DON"T YOU EVER REIGN IN BOB!

Michael (Jericho): :D

BOB 2001 for Spring

Lemon (Levi Reed): lollll

Michael (Jericho): HOLY SHIT!

Michael (Jericho): 2001???

Lemon (Levi Reed): No one can reign in BOB

Carissa (Vee Barlett): one day you all should look at the player page...

Michael (Jericho): We are not worthy!

BOB (LINK)

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

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Nyrma can

Lemon (Levi Reed): But that takes worrrrrk Carissa

Carissa (Vee Barlett): nah just curiosity

BOB grins

Lemon (Levi Reed): OH but that reminds me. I did start writing some of Levi's backstory, but I haven't posted it yet. What is the name of island 28?

Michael (Jericho): I have, I just stopped cause I got depressed I didn't have symbols next to my name the extend some others did L:OL

wyjyoon (Temperance): I tried, it takes a lot of tabs and my laptop said no after a while

wyjyoon (Temperance): Reading the player page, I mean. But that happens with anything I read on the site :D

Michael (Jericho): Anyways. Now I shall keep the same but enhanced respect for Spring of the Wisdom and Song, Jericho is aiming for Proficiency in Administration and Hitting shit with a club

BOB 28 Lemon?

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, on the map

Lemon (Levi Reed): Wait, sorry

Lemon (Levi Reed): 18

BOB Ok

BOB was like 28 is a LONG way away

Lemon (Levi Reed): I had to zoom in

BOB and you get to make that name up

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oooooh, well ok then

Lemon (Levi Reed): What should I name it? Cheese? Pants? Wine?

BOB Something vaguely victorian egyptian

Lemon (Levi Reed): Cheespantswine

wyjyoon (Temperance): LOL Lemon

Carissa (Vee Barlett): does not sound vaguely victorian egyptian....

Lemon (Levi Reed): Is victorian egyptian a thing?

BOB They are the ones who used to grind up mummies for their tea

BOB True story

wyjyoon (Temperance): Interesting

Michael (Jericho): Bob, I could have gone an entire lifetime without you reminding me of a History Channel special that I purposefully repressed

TMO (Rothuss Carder): also used them as fuel for their locomotives

Michael (Jericho): Sigh

wyjyoon (Temperance): Mummy tea with mum

Michael (Jericho): I don't get the Victorian Age. Did anything not insane come from it?

BOB exactly

BOB Frankenstein

wyjyoon (Temperance): I think it takes a bit of insanity to create something spectacular

Lemon (Levi Reed): It sounds like, from my quick googling, that Victorian anything only happened in England

Michael (Jericho): Huh

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I believe it was the Egyptians using them as train fuel, or possibly the British in Egypt.

BOB Yes to Lemon that was the age of the adventuring class

Michael (Jericho): For required reading, I much preferred Hound of the Baskervilles to Frankenstein, but I digress

Carissa (Vee Barlett): just look up egyptian names to make it easier

BOB This is true

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I have a random Egyptian name generator

BOB See

Michael (Jericho): TMO would LOL

Michael (Jericho): Your campagin right TMO?

TMO (Rothuss Carder): yes

BOB JTom what Non-weapon proficiency were you thinking of?

BOB You do not have to fill it now

BOB just to plan for future adventures to find a trainer who you want to look for

Lemon (Levi Reed): Wait, does this mean there's coffee and chocolate in this area of the world?

BOB No to chocolate

Carissa (Vee Barlett): chocolate is aztecs

BOB that is the contienent to the far west if you ever get high enough level to go visit

Michael (Jericho): I thought Chocolate was the mayans?

BOB that is tomatoes

Michael (Jericho): Centuries later, the Mayans praised chocolate as the drink of the gods. Mayan chocolate was a revered brew made of roasted and ground cacao seeds mixed with chilies, water and cornmeal.

BOB and so weird to know these things

Michael (Jericho): lol

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Google says we're both wrong. It's the Olmens

Michael (Jericho): Olmecs?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): *olmecs

Lemon (Levi Reed): Google tells me that "Ahwa" is both the word for coffee AND the place that you drink it, so can I choose that?

BOB Yes to Lemon that is a good island name

Michael (Jericho): I had to do Academci Decathalon for Ancient Central/South America. The amount of odd Trivia I remember is baffling

Lemon (Levi Reed): fantastic.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): both Mayans and Aztecs both had a lot of it so I can see why we both thought them as well

Michael (Jericho): Was my favorite club that entire year

Michael (Jericho): And was made fun of for enjoying it

Michael (Jericho): I sure hated High school

Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm getting both Ahwa and Ahwah, so I guess your choice of spelling

BOB added to the site

Michael (Jericho): lol

Carissa (Vee Barlett): anyone who says high school are your best years are full of themself, lol

Spring (Ratbone Carder): Jack and Diane

Michael (Jericho): Agreed lol

Lemon (Levi Reed): High school was an absolute nightmare.

BOB grins with Spring

Michael (Jericho): Oh good. Not just me

Michael (Jericho): You mean Jack and Daniels Spring?

Michael (Jericho): or did I miss something

Michael (Jericho): :P

Spring (Ratbone Carder): No, the little ditty about Jack and Diane

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, well, Mellencamp also thinks he was born in a "small town" and Bloomington Indiana has 80,00 people so.

Spring (Ratbone Carder): hang onto 16 as long as you can

Michael (Jericho): LOL

BOB doing the best they can

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I like Glory Days better as a song on that topic

BOB On the edge of seventeen

Spring (Ratbone Carder): apparently life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone. which happens right after high school i guess

Spring (Ratbone Carder): I dunno, my life got a lot better after high school

Michael (Jericho): Uh...my thrill began when I graduated from College Spring. I'm stressed A LOT, but happier then I've been in decades. Literally

Spring (Ratbone Carder): I guess Jack and Diane are sad puppies

Michael (Jericho): :)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Well, I mean, yeah there's a lot of like bills and stuff, and that kind of puts a damper on some things. But overall way better

Spring (Ratbone Carder): I'm so glad you are so much happier

BOB So right now I know your two Bards are in search of thieve training, and hope for spells

BOB Temperance is looking for 2nd level spells

Lemon (Levi Reed): Getting away from the parents is so so good. Just for Jtom's knowledge.

Michael (Jericho): Yeah, I don't have to wait for Chrismtas for something. if I want it, I typically justify getting it. Much to the chagrin of anyone attempting to buy me xmas stuff. Did you know my parents demanded that after October, I can't buy anything?

BOB and Levi wants to learn how to knife people in the alleyway

Michael (Jericho): A good skill to have. I approve

Lemon (Levi Reed): You know what, I was just talking to a friend about how obnoxious it is that men do that, and how difficult it makes it for us to buy them gifts.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Nice survival skills for alleway creatures

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Ratbone may want to choose what spell to learn, that's up to Spring. (I believe that's possible, just works like a wizard, learning from scroll or book that you found) Rothuss is all random inspiration, all the way.

Michael (Jericho): LOL. Sorry Lemon :P

Lemon (Levi Reed): I bought my friend a birthday present and he already had it.

Spring (Ratbone Carder): Should probably pick a spell that works well in tandem with yours

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Vee is learning Weather Sense from Lirt and unsure for her WP

Vee Barlett: Vee is learning Weather Sense from Lirt and unsure for her WP

Spring (Ratbone Carder): so we can team up better

Lemon (Levi Reed): But yes, knife-ing for me, and then I'm good

Michael (Jericho): I also hit the stage where someone gifts me a 50 pack of toilet paper and I'm like YES! I don't have to go to COSTCO and sit in the damn checkout LINE!

BOB so 5 weeks for Vee to learn that from Lirt

Carissa (Vee Barlett): how long will it take to teach Temp?

Lemon (Levi Reed): I will remember that for next year lol

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Rothuss' spell is Expeditious Retreat, only castable on Self, triples movement rate for a few rounds.

Michael (Jericho): :D

Carissa (Vee Barlett): *how long will it take the church to train Temp

BOB depends on how long you want to stay here, and how big of a favor you want to owe to the Church of the Mists

Carissa (Vee Barlett): they owe us

Michael (Jericho): yeah.....

Michael (Jericho): I'm kind awith Carissa on this one

BOB We are getting to that next Carissa

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok welll Vee will learn it from Lirt whenever it makes sense

BOB first know what to ask for

BOB For Temperance, does teh group want to stay 1 week? 10 weeks?

BOB Average is 7 weeks and 700 gold for training

BOB you can move it up much faster like Jericho did,

Michael (Jericho): Guys. Take it from me. I SUCK at this type of wording. I'm happy to try and draft a "hey, we saved your asses (at least temporarily) can you owe us just this tinyl little favor and we call it squarsies?" But I BEG of you for help.

BOB His was the equivelant of 10,000 gold

Carissa (Vee Barlett): she needs second level spells so yes to whatever the shortest amount of time we can stay here and get her that

Carissa (Vee Barlett): so our favor would take the cost from 10000 to 700?

Michael (Jericho): So...Carissa, I don' tmind sticking around more if we owe less of a vavor?

Michael (Jericho): Oh

Michael (Jericho): Maybe I misunderstood I apologize

Lemon (Levi Reed): Did we show them all the plans and papers we snagged? If not, can we use that for leverage?

Michael (Jericho): Someone made a copy of them first right?

BOB That is what we are working out now Lemon

Lemon (Levi Reed): Like, we will share all this info with you if you agree to waive some fees?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Someone mentioned at some point that the scrolls might be in a different language, but we haven't looked at them so

Michael (Jericho): Bob can even call it a Pell...ican Grant for our special aid status

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh god, yes, let's look at the scrolls?

BOB On my side of the ledger is: Train Temperance in 2nd level spells in 1, 2, 3 weeks, give you a contact to train the Carder siblings in their unique skills.... on your side is: ????

TMO (Rothuss Carder): the bards have a chance to read them if they're not common. a low chance, but still a chance.

BOB and HAH Michael

Lemon (Levi Reed): Temperance can read, yes?

Michael (Jericho): Glad someone thought it was funny :)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Yes, I can read, but I think that's limited to a kind of language. Have to double check the reading and writing NWP again

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Our side: Save your asses from losing more priests, FOUND where SEVENTEEN of your people ended up, and are willing to do chores while we wait.

Michael (Jericho): Oh and here are secret evil plans and schematics

Carissa (Vee Barlett): no we aren't giving them over

Carissa (Vee Barlett): just showing for now

Michael (Jericho): We aren't?

Michael (Jericho): I was just gonna make a copy for our folks and pass it on over

Michael (Jericho): We're here for several weeks after all. Woudln't be too hard

Carissa (Vee Barlett): not unless they ask for it

Michael (Jericho): Can...we make a copy anyways?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and if they do, charge them for a copy of the original we keep

Michael (Jericho): I'm fine with that

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Howard had a spell to copy things so not sure how we do that normally

Michael (Jericho): But I want these plans

Michael (Jericho): We don' thave a mage

Michael (Jericho): I don't have that spell I know for sure

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Lirt is a mage

Michael (Jericho): at least at this level

Michael (Jericho): Oh

Carissa (Vee Barlett): But does not have that spell

BOB Looks at Lirt

Michael (Jericho): huh

Michael (Jericho): Lirt....wanna check anyways?

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Lemon (Levi Reed): Can't someone who can read and write just... copy them?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): My point is I don't know the rules for this on copying since we had Howard the Cheat Sheet before

Michael (Jericho): Save me a LOT of writing over the next few weeks

Lemon (Levi Reed): It's not like we took books and books, it was just some papers

Michael (Jericho): Right

Michael (Jericho): That's why I'm not sweating TOO hard

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Look for what spell? A spell to copy things?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): You ever try copying something froma different language with different characters before? Not easy.

Michael (Jericho): We do have to be here at least four weeks. At LEAST

BOB Someone who has reading and writing would transcribe them

wyjyoon (Temperance): We can have Temperance do any copywork

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok good

BOB You have to be here 3 weeks at most

Lemon (Levi Reed): Well, she also has to train

Carissa (Vee Barlett): wait not good

BOB you have already committed to 1 week

Lemon (Levi Reed): Not sure how that effects how much she can copy

Vee Barlett: Can Lirt read/write?

wyjyoon (Temperance): For reading-writing it says "can read and write any modern language they can speak"

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Yes

Michael (Jericho): Carissa, I had to do "Spanish Made Easy, Scrabble Edition" Transcribed into a Spiral Bound Notebook when I was grounded. I did it at least twice. I will bring you the notebook next Anniversary

wyjyoon (Temperance): Anyone who has it can do it :)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): There so if it gets in the way of training, Lirt can help

Carissa (Vee Barlett): No thanks. Just copying my brother's address in Japanese was enough to know it's a pain

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Michael (Jericho): I KNOW the pain

BOB so the first week is Jericho, Levi, Melange, Rothuss clearing the roadway

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh god I committed to Japanese for a couple semesters, the writing was intense

Michael (Jericho): Right Bob

BOB comeing back at night to sleep then head out first thing again

Michael (Jericho): Yes

BOB During that week Lirt can make copies as well

BOB and you want Temperance trained in two weeks? or three?

Michael (Jericho): Let's first establish how many copies. I was thinking two copies. one for them (if they ask) one for orange sunsets, and one for us

Michael (Jericho): Is that okay?

Michael (Jericho): (Three, if it means we get to copy all the stuff?)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Just one copy for now so Lirt can train Vee

Michael (Jericho): (Wendy do you particularly care?)

Michael (Jericho): (OK, no problem)

wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't mind! : )

BOB Start training Vee

Michael (Jericho): What does she want?

Michael (Jericho): (Unless you were not talking to me)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Want in terms of copying or training?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't know if that was a question for me or not, sorry, I'm snacking

Carissa (Vee Barlett): depends on cost for her training? 1000 for two weeks versus 20 for five means we'd do five :P

Michael (Jericho): I thought bob told me to start Training Vee....but I'm not sure what she wants training in. So, I thought I misunderstood

wyjyoon (Temperance): I was waiting for the cost part

wyjyoon (Temperance): in terms of training

wyjyoon (Temperance): Considering we have limited resources / were talking about leverage

BOB so here we go, Wendy, Carissa, Spring, and Jtom get to talk with the Church about training while the rest are out digging then collapsing in bed at the end of the da

Michael (Jericho): With you so far :)

BOB So organize your offerings

Michael (Jericho): (So, we are collapsing in bed end of day. One of you guys gotta make the copies)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lirt and Temp can trade off

wyjyoon (Temperance): With copying

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Offerings: explain how we found closure for their lost people and have helped them prevent further disappearance, we have copies of mushroom evil plans for them to plan offense/defense, and we do chores

Michael (Jericho): (Offering can be the things we did for them, the fact we moved a mountain, the rescued traders, the good will for the rest of the world seeing they cared for the damaged traders...)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): anything to add?

Michael (Jericho): If we MUST add on, then a set of copies that we'll hold in reserve

Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh, we opened trade back up for them good point

Michael (Jericho): I think that is fari

Michael (Jericho): Well yeah...I aint moving a literal landslide for effing bacon

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Michael (Jericho): :D

wyjyoon (Temperance): Bacon with a side of fascinating ice things

BOB So Lirt, Ratbone, Vee, and Temperance are going to talk to them on day two of being here at the Church

Michael (Jericho): Jericho is shamelessly stealing the idea, and mixing the ice with rum. He's going to present a business plan with Vee and the bar back at home

Carissa (Vee Barlett): who is them and we'll talk :P

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Hello my children,

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I hear you wanted to speak with me

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ty

Michael (Jericho): (BRB since this appears to be a good moment.)

Vee Barlett: Yeah. We thinkin' we need to strike up a deal with ya after all we did.

Vee Barlett: And what we can keep doin' if we're hangin' around here.

Temperance: [SKILL] Bureaucracy (2) [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 5] [d20 = 8]

wyjyoon (Temperance): Dunno felt like I need to

Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Charisma (vs. Target 10) [SUCCESS by 2] [d20 = 8]

Carissa (Vee Barlett): no good idea

Vee Barlett: looks surprisingly a bit more polished as she smiles

Temperance: [CHECK] Wisdom (vs. Target 16) [SUCCESS by 6] [d20 = 10]

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I am Jaane Cinderbreaker of the 7th circle, guide of Gorby, heights of the sky eagle, depths of the were shark

Vee Barlett: Wereshark? Huh, I wanna hear that story one day, but I'm Vee. Nice meetin' ya. Probably.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I have heard that your group had quite an adventure

Jaane Cinderbreaker: The challenge of the mushroom men

Vee Barlett: Yes, m'am. The one priest said he was gonna get ya a report on it. Didja already?

Temperance: flips through some scribbled notes

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I have a small sampling

Jaane Cinderbreaker: it was suitably redacted

Jaane Cinderbreaker: a third circle and three second circle members of the church no longer with us is not something to spread about

Vee Barlett: Hmm, well, see, since we be hangin' here waiting for the landslide to clear, it'd be nice if we were trained up a bit more, yeah? Temperance here gained another circle or somethin' and I hear that the church helps with that?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Looks at Temperance

TMO (Rothuss Carder): climbing up and down this landslide is great training for the Climb Walls skill that Rothuss is working on. ;)

Vee Barlett: Hey, Temp, wanna tell her why we should be all trained up? What we already accomplished?

Vee Barlett: Hey, Temp, wanna tell her why we should be all trained up? What we already accomplished

Vee Barlett: So she can see why it was a shame we couldn't do more without more trainin'

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Do you think you can create a fist of water?

Vee Barlett: bites tongue before giving a smart retort

Temperance: There were a lot of... shall we say, interesting encounters during our journey. I'm not sure how much you're aware of, but it would have been nice to have been prepared to face those encounters properly.

wyjyoon (Temperance): (since I'm not sure what Priest Mountainbane reported)

Jaane Cinderbreaker: You seem to be ready for a more in depth learning

Vee Barlett: We saved some people, yeah? And we know the fate of yers most likely. That's worth somethin' especially if ya don't gotta worry about them bein' taken now.

Vee Barlett: Now we couldn't completely root out the rat given our limitations at the time. Shame.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Are you saying you eliminated the threat from the mushroom men?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Ahh

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Tell me about what you discovered there

Vee Barlett: We hindered it significantly. Now could die without the stuff we took. Or not, ain't sure.

Rings a bell

Looks at the entering acolyte

Vee Barlett: But the army they were .....

Vee Barlett: shuts mouth

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Bring in three lunches

Jaane Cinderbreaker: We will not want to be disturbed

Looks back at Vee

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Continue

Vee Barlett: shrugs

Spring: sorry, i'm gonna have to go. I don't feel well

Jaane Cinderbreaker: HUGS

Vee Barlett: Cut down most their army, stopped them from addin' soldiers. So yeah, we did a LOT.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): night spring feel better

Spring: bye y'all!

'Spring' disconnected

wyjyoon (Temperance): Feel better Spring!

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Goodnight

Vee Barlett: Y'all went from not knowin' why yers were disappearing to havin' that knowledge AND a... plant man to see if ya can make a cure in the future if the treat is still there.

Vee Barlett: *threat

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Do you believe the threat is eliminated?

Vee Barlett: Well.... look, I ain't shanked the main monster down there 'cause we were on the verge of death, so I can't say it definitely is, no, but don't think it'll bother y'all for a long time. Maybe never, but can't say for sure since it weren't shanked

Temperance: I can say we've made significant progress in terms of... eliminating what we can. But the underground cave has many caverns. We weren't in the position to explore them all.

Vee Barlett: Like woundin' an animal. Will it die on its own or recover? Can't say it's dead unless ya do it yerself.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Do you think you saw the monster?

Michael (Jericho): (The way your wording it makes me think they will train us and then say, oh good. You are all trained! Now go finisht the job)

Vee Barlett: I heard mutterin' which is more than anything else made and I saw where it set up a library, but ain't seen it, no. But that mean it didn't see us, neither.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: A library

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol probably but cave is blocked in so maybe not for a long time I hope

Vee Barlett: A library.

Temperance: We also encountered many different creatures, so I'm not sure which one "the monster" would be referring to.

Michael (Jericho): Describe the creepy ass oversize thrown chair

Vee Barlett: Got some scrolls and diagrams and stuff from there.

Vee Barlett: Whatever it is ain't human. The chair and desk were weird and the inscriptions were just.. odd. The whole place was weird.

Vee Barlett: Looked too big.

Temperance: I believe there was a strange room with a vat of...

Jaane Cinderbreaker: That is a .....

Michael (Jericho): Advanced laboratory equipment, irrigation systmes, mechanical feeders

Vee Barlett: Vat of people changin' juice.

Lemon (Levi Reed): ew

Jaane Cinderbreaker: That is not what I was expecting

Temperance: It appeared a bit like a laboratory.

Vee Barlett: Whatcha expectin?

Michael (Jericho): (Sorry, just trying to throw in as much that they might find useful for a barter of training vs. information)

Jaane Cinderbreaker: A mad scientist

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (nah she's in space)

Vee Barlett: Well, I mean, it felt like that but not a human one.

Michael (Jericho): outer space?

Michael (Jericho): :)

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Those wizard types tend to go for the change nature to their whims

wyjyoon (Temperance): (Thanks, Michael, I'm taking note! :D )

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Do you believe the lost priests are dead?

Vee Barlett: The lucky ones, yeah.

Vee Barlett: The unlucky ones we didn't kill and are still down there are pod things without a will or maybe even a soul.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): *as

Temperance: Their states are rather ambiguous. They seemed as though they were quite mindless in their pod states. I'd say they appeared closest to a vegetative state.

Vee Barlett: Yeah see Turkask yet? He was halfway to becomin' one and his mind ain't all there.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (or whatever his name is)

Michael (Jericho): (You could also explain the staff. That ALONE will pay for all our training plus some. But that's up to you)

Michael (Jericho): (Magical artifact like that is priceless)

wyjyoon (Temperance): (We could!)

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I have ministered to your lost soul

Jaane Cinderbreaker: He is recovering

Vee Barlett: Oh? He gonna be back to normal?

Michael (Jericho): (It also may be keyed to those creations alone, so may not actually help us outside the cave, erto, no real point in keeping it. But...you never know)

Michael (Jericho): (Code for...we killed him)

Jaane Cinderbreaker: He will never be free of his memories

Lemon (Levi Reed): If she can save them, then we need to bring one of them with us if they send us back in there

Michael (Jericho): Actually, if there is a cure, that could turn into a rescue mission

Temperance: I'm glad he is in recovery. The ones already lost seemed to react to this... staff.

Michael (Jericho): I would be down with that, even hating caves

Vee Barlett: Certainly not, that's what rum is for, but he gonna be fully human again?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: May I? holds out a hand for the staff

Temperance: unhooks the staff from her belt and hands it across the table.

wyjyoon (Temperance): (If they are at a table, not sure)

Takes the staff, holds it in her hands and casts a couple of spells over it

Lemon (Levi Reed): They are now!

Michael (Jericho): (Sorry to bring up the staff if you wanted to keep it. I just know magic shit in this world is WAY more expensive then we think it iis)

Lemon (Levi Reed): You willed it into being!

TMO (Rothuss Carder): *kaboom!!!*

wyjyoon (Temperance): LOL TMO

Michael (Jericho): lol indeed

Hands the staff back over to Temperance after a few minutes

wyjyoon (Temperance): And no worries, Michael! I wanted someone who could explore it anyhow : )

Temperance: receives the staff back.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: This is not a weapon for the battlefield

Vee Barlett: We got some schematics and stuff, too, we can make copies for y'all. Might help us know what it all says and what's goin' on.

Michael (Jericho): Hey, I aint backseat driving, just backseat offering unhelpful advice :D

Jaane Cinderbreaker: This is a weapon for the mind

Lemon (Levi Reed): Should we also ask for them to tell us about the scrolls?

Temperance: It did seem to work that way for the pod creatures we encountered.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: What did you do?

Temperance: Out of desperation, I cast a command.

Michael (Jericho): (Willed them to stop moving as I recal, but can't quite remember)

Michael (Jericho): Line of site

Temperance: It halted their movements for a while.

Michael (Jericho): too I think

Michael (Jericho): *Sight

Vee Barlett: Until we killed them. Halted them permanently.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: It is an interesting item

Temperance: Ah, did it? I was a bit busy concentrating on the cast to focus on the effects.

User has gone AFK. (JtomTMO)

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Not one I think you were supposed to have

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, we accidentally defeated a mini boss whoooops

wyjyoon (Temperance): Easty is beasty led us there : )

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I wonder if our mythical mushroom man can recreate this

Vee Barlett: You got them schematics, Temp? Show her those.

Temperance: I do have some of them. I believe the others are in Jericho's bag of holding.

Temperance: rummages around her bag of holding for said documents.

Temperance: Ah, here they are. These are pages from the, er... laboratory.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Looks them over

Jaane Cinderbreaker: These are mostly gibberish to me

Vee Barlett: As I said, ain't human.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: They look like some mad mage

Michael (Jericho): Ravings of a Mad Man!

Michael (Jericho): Jeckle and Hyde!

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Gorby would have something aligned to this but these are not of a devine nature

Lemon (Levi Reed): ...has anyone checked to see if the staff can talk?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: (divine)

wyjyoon (Temperance): We haven't yet Lemon! But that's a good idea

Vee Barlett: Gorby?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: My God

Lemon (Levi Reed): mostly a joke

Temperance: Gorby, huh? I've heard some things about the deity.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: The God of Transference

Vee Barlett: Huh, I thought a church of mist would follow the other one. Retaw, yeah?

Lemon (Levi Reed): back before the reroll, I got to play an evil sword that Michael's character was using. It was very fun

Jaane Cinderbreaker: You were with the fish

Vee Barlett: Yeah, they were entertainin' enough.

Vee Barlett: Oh, transferrin' spawn, that where ya goin' with this?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: You know they came here for their end

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Go off to the ocean to live a life, return to end it

Vee Barlett: If ya asked them, they came here for some lovin' but supposin' it's all the same.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: It is a cherished way of easing their ending

Jaane Cinderbreaker: adn to ensure that the cycle will continue

Vee Barlett: They were a lil' more crude with their wordin' but sure.

Temperance: All things come to an end at some point or another. The law of life, to some extent.

Vee Barlett: So what about it?

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh sure, now that they know she can talk to fish, suddenly they're all concerned about making the fish happy

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Jaane Cinderbreaker: So tell me what you seek from the Church

Jaane Cinderbreaker: delivering this staff and papers is not in your own interest

Vee Barlett: We'll start with trainin' and see what yer willin' to give us there first.

Vee Barlett: We'll give ya copies, but not sure we're up to givin' ya the staff and papers.

Temperance: I suppose delivering isn't quite the right word. The staff and papers served as proof of the things we encountered.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: What skills do you want to enhance beyond Temperance here advancing in her growth for her God

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I will require you to leave the staff here with me for further investigation

Vee Barlett: We got some bards hopin' to train up quicker if ya got the staff for it, another priest who wants to learn some administration stuff for some ungodly reason, and ...hmm, didja need anything Lirt?

Vee Barlett: So ya wanna borrow the staff?

wyjyoon (Temperance): ("ungodly reason")

Carissa (Vee Barlett): :)

TMO (Rothuss Carder): :)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Lirt fell asleep

Carissa (Vee Barlett): double meaning intentional pun

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I will be keeping the staff here in the Church for further investigation, it is not prudent or safe to allow you to wander the mountains with it

Lemon (Levi Reed): They're always intentional

TMO (Rothuss Carder): as soon as you let them see it... they take it

Vee Barlett: I'll agree with that, but just clarifyin' that we ain't givin' it to ya, and ya don't own it. You can keep it safe for us for now.

Lemon (Levi Reed): Always remember this Wendy. The church are theiving jerks.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Will you be venturing into the caves again so soon?

Michael (Jericho): I mean, yes. But as bob keeps telling me. If you don't make friends with them, they will make your life hell

Michael (Jericho): So no need to piss them off needlessly

Michael (Jericho): otherwise it may come back and bite us

Vee Barlett: Ain't have reason for that so that's why we're lettin' ya keep it safe for us, yeah?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I am glad you see reason

Vee Barlett: And if we do, then yer right next door for us to visit first.

Lemon (Levi Reed): No, but this is why I hate talking to them. You have to be SO CAREFUL

Michael (Jericho): I mean, you have to do that with your boss dont' you? I'm just fortunately after 15 years I finally got a good one

Lemon (Levi Reed): Give em and inch and they take a mile

Lemon (Levi Reed): No, not really

Michael (Jericho): if you are reading this Peter, you weren't too bad either

wyjyoon (Temperance): I'm not sure what to think, but I'm a little cautious in terms of what they want to investigate.

wyjyoon (Temperance): It was material for leverage to begin with.

Lemon (Levi Reed): Previous bosses, sure. My current boss? She's pretty easy to talk to

BOB She is about Branwyn's level, in charge of this section of the island, she expects people to be respectful

Michael (Jericho): there you have it

Vee Barlett: pffffft then why is Vee talking?? :P

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah but she also just takes our stuff

Michael (Jericho): Because you aren't digging? :)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

wyjyoon (Temperance): Because she has the charisma

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and a good point

Michael (Jericho): Her keeping it safe for us is a boon in disguise

Michael (Jericho): We don't have to worry about assassins coming for the mad wizards staff

Carissa (Vee Barlett): I'd rather not be hunting by the mushroom man through the mountains. Let him attack the church instead

Michael (Jericho): exactly

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, but she doesn't know WE know that

Lemon (Levi Reed): I'm sure she thinks we're silly bumpkins

Michael (Jericho): Welcome to Commerce

Michael (Jericho): :D

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I have an aquaintence who your bard friends will appreciate

Michael (Jericho): Where you are prepared without lube both ways

Michael (Jericho): sorry for the graphic portrayal> That is a mine saying

Michael (Jericho): I apologize

Vee Barlett: nods

Lemon (Levi Reed): mini, cover your eyes

Michael (Jericho): Yeah...that was a big oopsie on me

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I will give you a letter of recomendation to him, in exchange for those notes

Michael (Jericho): sorry

Vee Barlett: After we make copies of them, sure.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: You said you have other things from a library?

Michael (Jericho): Mini, don't ever work with Maintenance Personnel. They will destroy your soul and make your mother weap

Lemon (Levi Reed): He's what, 15 now? Probably a good time for this topic to come up, now TMO can take over lol

Vee Barlett: The other priest out diggin' grabbed some, yeah.

Vee Barlett: And the bard out diggin' grabbed some scrolls.

Michael (Jericho): LOL LEMON!

TMO (Rothuss Carder): dig dug

Michael (Jericho): YOU KILLED ME

Vee Barlett: We didn't get anythin' from the bookshelf, givin' it was likely trapped and we was hurtin' by then.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: When I inspect the scrolls we will determine if that is sufficient for your training Temperance

Vee Barlett: You know, 'cause we need more training.

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I don't know what maintenance personnel is, but if it's not customer service it can't be as bad

Michael (Jericho): You fix heavy duty equipment and tend to whine a lot at the coffee machine

Vee Barlett: Any chance we can toss in a couple healin' potions?

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Engineering is what I'm interested in

Jaane Cinderbreaker: You want to give me some healing potions?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooh what kind? my brother is an engineer

Michael (Jericho): Well, your in luck! Our engineers on the same crew have the same lovable trait!

Vee Barlett: shrugs and grins

Michael (Jericho): They just get paid better!

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Idon't know yet, either mechanical or chemical

Vee Barlett: Can't hurt to ask. Hmm, well, no, it can but I'm askin' 'cause I think it won't hurt here.

Michael (Jericho): (You ever go for mining engineering, do Civil Engineering instead. Trust me. You can do the same thing with Civil, and also work at the best mines in the world)

Vee Barlett: And you givin' us some, maybe.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: She looks at Vee amused

Vee Barlett: The rest of us gonna hang around while the other train so ya can put us to work if ya think we gotta earn them.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: You should be thinking of what you will be doing to help your friends with their training, and not asking for more for your self

Michael (Jericho): (Shots fired)

Michael (Jericho): (Cannon fired?)

Vee Barlett: Ain't for myself. It was those friend who needed the potions, m'am.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Oh my aquaintence is not here at the church, he lives up in the mountains

Michael (Jericho): (Nope, arbalest)

Vee Barlett: sighs

Vee Barlett: 'Course he is.

Michael (Jericho): Surrounded by Selkies?

Michael (Jericho): Ooh ask that!

Michael (Jericho): This could be fun for Vee!

Vee Barlett: He with them selkies the farmer mentioned?

Vee Barlett: *sirens

Temperance: Do you happen to know how far it takes to trek?

Michael (Jericho): (Sorry, Sirents)

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I am not sure who Snow has near him at any time

Lemon (Levi Reed): Very original name

Vee Barlett: Mkay, but is it an easy trek or we gonna need those potions?

Lemon (Levi Reed): I bet he knows nothing

wyjyoon (Temperance): Is his last name White? Does he disney princess around animals on the mountain?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: There is a path for some of the way, and I will give you directions once you get to the fork in the road

Jaane Cinderbreaker: It shoudl not take you more than two to three days

Vee Barlett: And how long will it take to train Temp?

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I will give my second best person the time to train her

Vee Barlett: Here that, Temp? You second best.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: If Temperance studies hard she should be using her new powers in two weeks

Vee Barlett: low whistle

Vee Barlett: That's fast.

Michael (Jericho): You go Wendy! Spells out the Wazoo!

Michael (Jericho): Two Weeks!

Michael (Jericho): Jeeze!

Temperance: It shouldn't be too difficult if I dedicate the time, then.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: I do not accept those here at the Church who do not fufill their tasks when needed

Michael (Jericho): Ominous and preachy, but okay

Vee Barlett: Someone slackin'? I can give them a word.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: warm chuckle

Jaane Cinderbreaker: You might serve Gorby well

Vee Barlett: Hmm, maybe, but Deltan ain't gonna let me go and I'm fine with that.

Vee Barlett: But sure he don't mind me helpin' Gordy for now.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: She will be pleased to see you then

Vee Barlett: gives her a mock salute

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Go assist with the fish

Jaane Cinderbreaker: and bring me those copies by the end of the week

Michael (Jericho): One day, this will come back and bite us in the ass. Mark my words on the 1 of March 2024

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Or I will withdraw Temperance's trainer to other tasks

Michael (Jericho): Mock Salute Bran

Vee Barlett: Alright, but just so you know, yer farmer ain't so good with them. He really don't think they have thoughts and that's rude.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: Who was on duty with you?

Temperance: Someone by the name of Fiolx.

Vee Barlett: That dude from this mornin? Foilx I think someone said?

Vee Barlett: Oh, Fiolx. Such a tongue twister.

wyjyoon (Temperance): (How does pronunciation work on that name?)

Michael (Jericho): Ask Chat GPT

Jaane Cinderbreaker: That sounds like someone from the mountain tribes

Michael (Jericho): :D

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (my mind keeps reading it as floks so dunno)

Michael (Jericho): He's from the Crazy Arrow Tribe

Vee Barlett: Mountain tribes?

Temperance: I believe he's one from some Arrow Tribe.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (yes but Vee never asked him so playing dumb here)

Lemon (Levi Reed): What's the name of the organization that's kind of like PETA but not terrible?

Michael (Jericho): oh i'm sorry lol

Michael (Jericho): My bad!

Jaane Cinderbreaker: We bring them in for assistance. They bring us goods or services and we do the same in exchange

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh I thought he introduced himself

wyjyoon (Temperance): My bad here too

Michael (Jericho): It could be Broken Arrow, but that's a Nuclear Device and not what we are looking for unless this became SpellJammer

Vee Barlett: Oh, so maybe he don't know fish. Guess I can forgive that. Not sure how many fish live in the mountains.

Lemon (Levi Reed): Because I want to call Carissa that, but I don't want to insult her by using PETA instead

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Michael (Jericho): Just to be clear. It's not PEDO either

Carissa (Vee Barlett): There's PETRA but that's a Brazilian organization that I don't think you know

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol!

BOB ASPCA

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, maybe that one

Vee Barlett: He don't know much about mermaids either. Shame.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: So go out and do your tasks

Lemon (Levi Reed): But idk, Vee's pretty murdery, maybe she IS the PETA in this world

Michael (Jericho): (I thin kthat is polite code for don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out :) )

Jaane Cinderbreaker: and at the end of the week I will see if Temperance continues her training

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (now that's insulting)

Vee Barlett: stands up and gives her a slight salute

Michael (Jericho): "Don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you"

Vee Barlett: On it, m'am. Thanks for lunch.

Vee Barlett: Off to watch the fishes make love again.

Jaane Cinderbreaker: If that is what excites you

Michael (Jericho): I'll just burn that out of my mind again

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Michael (Jericho): SHOTS FIRED!

Michael (Jericho): I LOVE IT

Vee Barlett: Not really, nor them, but it's whatcha gotta do for spawn.

BOB I let you watch, I would invite you, but the queens we use would not excite you

Michael (Jericho): For me, this is Bob's Dolphin game

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol

Temperance: We appreciate your time. Excuse us.

Michael (Jericho): Putn on the Ritz bob?

Michael (Jericho): No, that's not it

Lemon (Levi Reed): one night in bangkok

Michael (Jericho): One night in Bancock?

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Heh. I played that song for Mini last year and then asked him what he thought it was about. :)

Michael (Jericho): YES

BOB grins

Carissa (Vee Barlett): you all keep typing words

Michael (Jericho): LEMON!

Michael (Jericho): YOU BEAT ME!

Lemon (Levi Reed): I know things.

Michael (Jericho): I laugh every time I hear it

BOB and she drinks

Michael (Jericho): Only when I got older did the lyrics make sense though...

BOB So tidying up things

BOB Lirt needs a writing check at a minus 2

Michael (Jericho): Yes. Somehow despite my foul mood, the game once again makes life bearable again

Michael (Jericho): Don't let the check bounce Lirt

BOB Temperance needs one also at a minus 2

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Carissa (Vee Barlett): can't someone bless them first?

BOB You are effectively creating a forgery

BOB because you cannot read the writing

Lemon (Levi Reed): Minus because of the mystery language?

Michael (Jericho): Oh, so we are just in outright Fraud

Michael (Jericho): Got it

Lemon (Levi Reed): Guys I'm SO GOOD at this game

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh I guess that's what I'm signing up for

BOB warm smile with Lemon

Michael (Jericho): Hey Bob. Are orisons fine enough to recreate imagery at a much slower pace then outright copy? Since it's a small magic, could it be done?

BOB But Temp and Lirt make those checks

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh, also, unrelated but it's Wendy's birthday on... Monday?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): but can you bless for these checks

BOB It can create it temporarily but it disapears after a while

Michael (Jericho): Jericho won't be able to because of the Mountain, but....

Michael (Jericho): Ah darn

Lirtimya: [SKILL] Reading/Writing [MOD:INT] [-2] (vs. Target 17) [FAILURE by 4] [d20+2 = 21]

BOB Happy Birthday Wendy

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ouchhhhh

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Fun

Michael (Jericho): Could we do it, and then borrow an official scribe to do it for us from the church in their off hours?

BOB So the copies made by Lirt are not accurate

Michael (Jericho): We recreate, they "scribe"

Carissa (Vee Barlett): if we fail we just ask for another week

Michael (Jericho): Oh darn

BOB Now Temp gets her chance

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Happy Birthday Wendy!

Carissa (Vee Barlett): guess you all don't get blesses for these

Temperance: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] [-2] (vs. Target 13) [FAILURE by 1] [d20+2 = 14]

BOB Not for this it is hours of writing a day

Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh come on

Michael (Jericho): That was obs

Carissa (Vee Barlett): so close for both??

Michael (Jericho): not reading/writing

Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh

wyjyoon (Temperance): Oh sorry

Michael (Jericho): lol no worries. just trying to keep track

wyjyoon (Temperance): They're all so close together

Temperance: [SKILL] Reading-Writing [MOD:INT] [-2] (vs. Target 13) [SUCCESS by 7] [d20+2 = 6]

Carissa (Vee Barlett): whew

BOB So Temperance creates spotless copies

wyjyoon (Temperance): Happy Birthday to me

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): My reading/writing is a 17, it should be rare for me to fail, and yet I still failed, even without the -2

BOB grins

wyjyoon (Temperance): Thanks Dice

Carissa (Vee Barlett): right?? that hurt mini

Michael (Jericho): Shh. Don't let it go to the Dice's head. They may become entitled and start failing just to spite you

Michael (Jericho): or something

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I will incenerate them

Michael (Jericho): Fair enough

BOB So at the end of the week Temperance turns in her copies

Michael (Jericho): I got nothing to rebuke that statement :)

BOB and her training continues

Michael (Jericho): Bob, can I ask a favor

BOB depends

BOB you can ask of course

Lemon (Levi Reed): Incinerating is usually the best course of action

wyjyoon (Temperance): I always see Smelting, so that might work too

Carissa (Vee Barlett): click the bottom right metal thing mini, burn them!!

Jericho: Jericho wants to ask if they have a spell to review memories. I'd like to offer that so they know exactly what kind of twisted shit is going on beneath their feet. It can't hurt to give them more stuff in good faith and I really REALLY want them to know what's going on, even if we get nothing out of it

wyjyoon (Temperance): Or is that the same thing

Michael (Jericho): Jericho wants to ask if they have a spell to review memories. I'd like to offer that so they know exactly what kind of twisted shit is going on beneath their feet. It can't hurt to give them more stuff in good faith and I really REALLY want them to know what's going on, even if we get nothing out of it

Lirtimya: Smelting the dice down, forging new ones, and giving them a test roll! [10d4+10d6+10d8+10d10+10d12+10d20 = 309]

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): What did I just do

Carissa (Vee Barlett): wooo! they deserved that

Lemon (Levi Reed): Too many ones, try again

Carissa (Vee Barlett): smelted those dice

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I pressed smelt

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Why did it roll them?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): taught them a lesson for failing you by smelting them

Carissa (Vee Barlett): test roll

wyjyoon (Temperance): It rolls them all at once as a test roll when you smelt them : )

TMO (Rothuss Carder): it's a thing that it does.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): according to lemon, it tells you if the new batch is good or not

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Oh okay

Michael (Jericho): (I mean if they don't that's fine. But Jericho and I want them to know the full depth of stuff)

Michael (Jericho): (Just an offer for them)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and lemon says too many ones so you should smelt these, too

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, too many ones. You should smelt again. Show them who's boss.

BOB Thinking who would do that Michael

Carissa (Vee Barlett): oh! unrelated, but vee wants her fortune still

Lirtimya: Smelting the dice down, forging new ones, and giving them a test roll! [10d4+10d6+10d8+10d10+10d12+10d20 = 323]

Lemon (Levi Reed): better

Carissa (Vee Barlett): some priest with a thought spehere major?

Michael (Jericho): Honestly, it would probably have to be a high level spell. I don't really care who wants to do it. It's for them not for us

Lemon (Levi Reed): You know... someone asked me recently if I was superstitious, and I was like, "nope." But... I kind of am about smelting the dice.

Michael (Jericho): Unless you want a direct answer?

Michael (Jericho): I guess I can make a written offer and give it to the head honcho and if yes great, if no, then at least I tried

Michael (Jericho): I can write a detailed memeory journal of what I remember and give that to them instead

BOB It would be a priest of Lorin who could do that

Michael (Jericho): Again, this is for them, not us

Michael (Jericho): Locrin?

BOB Lorin

Michael (Jericho): Lorin

Michael (Jericho): OK

Michael (Jericho): Then, I guess...

BOB There is not one here at the Church

Michael (Jericho): I'll just write as detailed account as I can

Michael (Jericho): And offer if they want more detail....they can borrow a Lorin priest LOL

BOB That would be back at the Temple

Michael (Jericho): I'm trying to help haha

Michael (Jericho): No worries

Michael (Jericho): Thank you for lettign me know

Michael (Jericho): Is Lorin a god/goddess of memory/dreams?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lorin is said to have the knowledge of how to do anything she desires.

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

Michael (Jericho): Wow

Michael (Jericho): TY

Michael (Jericho): OK

wyjyoon (Temperance): That's what it says on site :D

BOB Page last modified on March 06, 2008, at 03:03 PM EST

BOB But BOB does not plan

wyjyoon (Temperance): Was reading up on some deities after Carissa sent me one about Retaw

Michael (Jericho): I wish I could show them all they want to know, but I'll just write up a detailed account including the laboratory, library, and schematics related to mechanical equipment and irrigation systems. The glowing fungus, the sluiec systmes, and overall crude map. Can I roll for doing the best I can for that for now?

Lemon (Levi Reed): No one has ever, in the history of anything, claimed that you were not an overzealous planner, BOB.

BOB Bows, thank you

Lemon (Levi Reed): Hey, they want to know more details, they can go in and look

Lemon (Levi Reed): They have the staff

Michael (Jericho): It's more about my own personal moral compass, not the games

Carissa (Vee Barlett): he's a priest and needs to make sure he's on their good side

Michael (Jericho): It makes me uncomfortable for them to not know

Carissa (Vee Barlett): go get drunk, levi

Michael (Jericho): Which is why I asked to do it for free

BOB So three weeks later

BOB you have cleared the roadway

Vee Barlett: is still waiting for her fortune

BOB trained Temperance in 2nd level spells

Michael (Jericho): (Yay)

BOB made friends

Michael (Jericho): (We did?)

Michael (Jericho): (Cool!)

Temperance: glances at the calluses forming on her hand from writing and copying mysterious language

Carissa (Vee Barlett): so many fish friends

Michael (Jericho): (She starts hearing demonic voices...)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oooooh, can she learn the language from so much copying?

BOB and have a person, a map, and a letter of recomendation to The Snow Man. Who lives in the mountains somewhere up there

Lemon (Levi Reed): Like... she decoded it accidentally?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I mean. That would be nice.

Michael (Jericho): Oh god. Is the next Chapter "Frosty the Snow Man?"

BOB Temperance would need to know what language to learn it

BOB BUT

BOB I will give Levi an inteligence check at a minus 4

Carissa (Vee Barlett): welp

Lemon (Levi Reed): hahahahahahah

Michael (Jericho): LOL

Levi Reed: [CHECK] Intelligence [-4] (vs. Target 9) [FAILURE by 12] [d20+4 = 21]

Michael (Jericho): WAIT

Michael (Jericho): dammit

Michael (Jericho): Bless?

BOB what?

BOB no

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yeah about expected, lol

Carissa (Vee Barlett): sorry levi

Michael (Jericho): hey, I'm glad we got the copies. We win some we lose some

Lemon (Levi Reed): Levi has low intelligence on purpose lol

BOB I will give Levi one more check same modifier

Carissa (Vee Barlett): if only it was a CHA check

Lemon (Levi Reed): int again?

Michael (Jericho): (May I ask why Levi is getting the checks?)

Michael (Jericho): (Not a problem, just curious)

BOB Only if he suceeds will you know why

Levi Reed: [CHECK] Intelligence [-4] (vs. Target 9) [FAILURE by 7] [d20+4 = 16]

Michael (Jericho): Ah

Michael (Jericho): OK

wyjyoon (Temperance): Apparently we won't know yet : )

Michael (Jericho): But now my curiousity is in full overdrive. You ass

Michael (Jericho): LOL

BOB Ok

Lemon (Levi Reed): alas

Michael (Jericho): :)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): because something lemon said about temp maybe picking up some patterns or language from all her note copying

BOB so at the end of the three weeks

Michael (Jericho): Ah, I got you. Nevertheless, burning curiousity

Michael (Jericho): I hat ethat

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yes, because while Levi is a total idiot, Lemon is only half an idiot.

BOB and I will let Lemon and Michael take turns with fortune telling

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lemon is not an idiot : )

Michael (Jericho): Its like....having to wait for the next book and you know you wont get to it for another year

BOB as I update Temperance's sheet

Carissa (Vee Barlett): huh?

Lemon (Levi Reed): ?

Michael (Jericho): Bob just happens to be really good at that irritating feature :)

wyjyoon (Temperance): ?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I thought it was Vee that wanted the fortune?

BOB Yes I am going to be entertained by Vee getting a fortune from Jericho and Levi as she is kicking around waiting for her chance with a priestess

wyjyoon (Temperance): OH

Lemon (Levi Reed): I... what

Michael (Jericho): What?

Michael (Jericho): lol

Michael (Jericho): I foresee great things from you Master Vee. Terrible...Yes....but Great!

Vee Barlett: Fuck you, Jericho.

Michael (Jericho): What?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Magic 8 ball it :D

Michael (Jericho): I dind' tsay anyhting in character!

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol she is not happy with that fortune

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol

Michael (Jericho): What, you don't want to be Voldemort?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I actually have a magic 8 ball

Michael (Jericho): He liked to shank people

wyjyoon (Temperance): It was a white elephant gift

Carissa (Vee Barlett): She wants an ORIGINAL fortune not copyright

Vee Barlett: she is her own person

Lemon (Levi Reed): Since when can Levi tell fortunes?

Michael (Jericho): LOL. Technically, with movies, it's IP now, not just copyright :D

Carissa (Vee Barlett): since he was drunk

Carissa (Vee Barlett): like how he thinks he can write poems

Michael (Jericho): Wanna make his fortune cannon? That response from Vee is making me laugh my ass off

Carissa (Vee Barlett): obviously none of them can and bob's saying maybe they're joking with her and pretending they can

Carissa (Vee Barlett): yes

Michael (Jericho): Done!

Vee Barlett: Clearly don't know a fortune from yer ass.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Can Temperance be present or is she still training

Jericho: Grins and gives Vee a gentle pat

Carissa (Vee Barlett): all are present

Jericho: I do know alchohol though

wyjyoon (Temperance): Because she'd be recording

Levi Reed: The winds will be at your back and the fish spawn at your feet, and the mermaids will attempt to drown you, and they will be shanked for their effort

Jericho: Hows the swill

Carissa (Vee Barlett): maybe it's lunch or something

Jericho: ?

Vee Barlett: Do you? 'Cause that batch wasn't great.

Jericho: Well...I did say it was a bad batch

Vee Barlett: That a fortune or a poem, Levi?

Jericho: Look Vee, you want a real fortune?

Lemon (Levi Reed): both

Levi Reed: both

Vee Barlett: 'Cause I wanna befriend the mermaids, not shank them, but if they be drownin' me, then yeah, I suppose I'll shank 'em.

Jericho: Snickers

Vee Barlett: Yeah, but ain't gonna come from you numbskulls.

Temperance: chuckles at their antics as she scribbles some notes

Jericho: I'll tell you what, give me a sec. I'll give you a real fortune eh?

Vee Barlett: rolls eyes

Temperance: blinks at Jericho.

Vee Barlett: Ain't see the real fortune teller comin' yet so go ahead.

Temperance: I didn't know you could tell fortunes.

Vee Barlett: Entertain me.

Jericho: Ponders: "I see a fearless, mouthy, grumpy, bad tempered woman who will go on to make friends with mermaids, shank many of foes, and make the world a better place. And my friend. And we'll all be in it for better or worse" Smiles.

Jericho: Better?

Jericho: Oh and much rum shall be consumed

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol, I went to a fortune generator to see what would come up, and up came "you will live long enough to open many fortune cookies"

Vee Barlett: No. Who you callin' grumpy??

Jericho: laughs

Jericho: Make your own fortune Vee

Vee Barlett: Gonna shank you at this rate.

Jericho: Don't waste your time on those who might give you one

Levi Reed: It is now, and in this world that we must live

Jericho: Ah, you'd do it but in a year or so, you'd miss me

Vee Barlett: Why? I'm gonna make my own anyways, but I can be entertained.

Jericho: Sigh.

Lemon (Levi Reed): "Don't forget, you are always on our minds." creepy

Jericho: Well, I can't entertain worth shit. You need to talk to Ratbone for that

Vee Barlett: Already know my fortune is to rule them seas, but curious what's between now and then.

Michael (Jericho): "Every step you take...."

Jericho: Exhaspertated.

Jericho: Vee

Jericho: In all honesty

Jericho: Would it make a lick of difference? I don't think Fate actaully can survive a colluision with you

Jericho: What do you care?

Vee Barlett: Good gracious, it that hard to understand?

Jericho: Waves hands

Jericho: Fine. Have it your way

Vee Barlett: Who don't like hearin' a story 'bout themself? Simple as that.

Jericho: Shakes head.

Jericho: I guess

Vee Barlett: And yeah, yer right which is why it entertains me.

Jericho: But after the last fortune I got, I don't want another the rest of my life

Vee Barlett: What fortune was that?

Levi Reed: Ah, the gods have spoken to me, here's a real one

Jericho: The one where if I didn't return with an answer in a month a geas would kill me?

Levi Reed: You are very independent and are constantly in search of freedom; so much so that you reject a conventional lifestyle and pursue your own path. As the penultimate zodiac sign, you are like real chameleons thanks to your adaptability and creativity. You also shine thanks to your originality, curiosity and unpredictability.

Lemon (Levi Reed): (aquarius, of course)

Lemon (Levi Reed): Because Vee

Vee Barlett: That weren't fortune. That was truth tellin' unless ya heard it before the geas.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Hmm, fair

Jericho: Shrugs

Jericho: It was payment for the Fortune

Vee Barlett: Hmm, thank, Levi. Makes me feel nice 'bout myself.

Jericho: We had to leave the city immedietly to catch Rufus apparently

User has gone AFK. (TMO)

Vee Barlett: That at the wacky church Levi was ravin' about?

Michael (Jericho): (And with that, i'm out :) Goodnight all!)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): night!

Michael (Jericho): Night! HUGS! Good session bob :)

wyjyoon (Temperance): Night Michael! : )

Lemon (Levi Reed): Goodnight Michael!

Jericho: Indeed it was. The cathedral

'Michael' disconnected

BOB 27 new spells added to Temperances sheet

Lemon (Levi Reed): Hahahahahaha, welcome to hell

Vee Barlett: Not the wacky church I meant, but guess they fit, too.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Reading up on calm chaos because it might be what I need every Friday

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Carissa (Vee Barlett): I don't know that spell but I already like the sound of it

wyjyoon (Temperance): Under law sphere : )

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (also noticed FG is bugged on people leaving)

wyjyoon (Temperance): "It calms chaotic situations on a group of people"

Lemon (Levi Reed): Oh god, we might actually need that

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Michael is still here, Spring is still here, AND Ratbone is STILL typing over an hour later

Lemon (Levi Reed): In game AND in real life

Lemon (Levi Reed): It shows them both offline for me, but DOES show Ratbone typing

BOB Yes the black and white portraits mean offline

BOB but not sure why it kept her typing

Carissa (Vee Barlett): nope it shows them on

BOB Also Temperance got one new spell no one else got

wyjyoon (Temperance): ?

BOB Heartbeat

BOB Is out of the Necromancer book

wyjyoon (Temperance): It does say "Hear Heartbeat" yes, looking at it now

Lemon (Levi Reed): Like no one else ever?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): oooh

Vee Barlett -> : It shows them both offline for me, but DOES show Ratbone typing

BOB correct no one has gotten that spell yet

Carissa (Vee Barlett): that was an accidental whisper

wyjyoon (Temperance): "For the duration of this spell, the priest becomes completely deaf to all normal sounds and may hear only the noise of other creatures' heartbeats"

Lemon (Levi Reed): fancy

wyjyoon (Temperance): I had to squint to read the description so it's paraphrased a bit : )

Carissa (Vee Barlett): good for sirens

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Since he may not mention it himself, I should point out that while Lirt is busy training everyone, she's not able to do any of her own skill/spell training.

BOB correct

TMO (Rothuss Carder): so should probably make room for that in the schedule if you want a working mage. ;)

Carissa (Vee Barlett): what is the mage working on? I missed it if something was mentioned

BOB You are looking for spells

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Yeah I didn't get a NWP last level either

BOB Lirt is training Vee

Carissa (Vee Barlett): unless there was a NWP you wanted to learn

BOB Lirt has a NWP open to train in when the opportunity comes

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and not blaming you mini, but I AM blaming your dad for not paying attention during our negotiations to help you figure that out :P

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): I was too busy training people to learn a NWP last level

BOB When you see Snow you will be negociating things

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I think it was only mentioned one time, and didn't make it into the group schedule

Carissa (Vee Barlett): when we talked to the priest, Vee asked if Lirt wanted to train in anything

BOB There is time next week too

Carissa (Vee Barlett): agian, I have no problems with Vee waiting but I did not know Lirt wanted to train in anything yet

BOB I will not be here

BOB You can all debate in and out of character what the priorities are etc

Carissa (Vee Barlett): can training be stopped halfway? like Vee trained for this one week and they'll pick it up again later?

TMO (Rothuss Carder): no worries, oversights happen. That's why I mentioned it, because I didn't think he would. :)

BOB No to Carissa, well actually yes BUT

Lemon (Levi Reed): I think last time he said the training deteroriates in between

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Yes, but mention it earlier, please during the many times we talked about things we wanted to train in

BOB Any interruption of the training sessions, while adventuring or in normal circumstances, will extend the time needed to complete the learning process. For every day missed and extra day is added to the end of the training period. This applies only to the first 9 missed days. After this each missed day requires two days of additional work.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ok we'll do that math if needed later

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, that

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I don't think we need to interrupt training, it just needs to be on the schedule for later

Lemon (Levi Reed): Mini, do you know what you want next for Lirt?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): No my point is I need to know what Lirt might want to train in so we can ask the church for those trainers and so I don't prioritize Vee. But since I did not know, I did not ask the church for her training and I have Vee listed for trianing.

BOB We will have a proposed schedule during the week, I am only missing Friday night for the concert

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Yes, I have a list

BOB I will be around

BOB and grins excellent JTom

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and yes Bob will retrocon that which is good but that's why it's better to mention this earlier not end of session

TMO (Rothuss Carder): nope! Has to be End of Session! It's in the handbook

Carissa (Vee Barlett): then the funds for her training come straight from Rothuss :P

TMO (Rothuss Carder): sorry, we've both been in passive mode since both of our time has been spoken for

BOB Only ones committed is Jericho, Rothuss, Melange, and Levi as they are working on the road. The rest of the group has two weeks for training, (Temperance) and can do 2 of the 5 weeks of Lirt training Vee. Then at the end of that two weeks you go off to find Snow

Lemon (Levi Reed): So we're calling it now? Because I feel like we need to push until Sharif gets on

Carissa (Vee Barlett): I want my fortune

BOB I am working on a fortune teller

Lemon (Levi Reed): Fantastic

Lemon (Levi Reed): If he's even coming, that is.

TMO (Rothuss Carder): btw, Bob, np if you don't, do you know how many weeks of Climb Walls training Rothuss had accomplished before the 3 weeks of landslide clearing? I want to say 2 or 3, but not certain.

TMO (Rothuss Carder): he started at the beginning of this adventure, I believe.

wyjyoon (Temperance): Would be nice to see Sharif : ) Mel's comments always lighten the mood

BOB (LINK)

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EblLqzkUFq8">(LINK)</a>

Lemon (Levi Reed): We've been on this adventure for like three days until we got to the church

BOB Lemon has it right, only days have gone by and it was 1 week of landslide clearing

BOB which is why we are lining up things before saying Yes to clicking off the time

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I coulda sworn you said 3 weeks passed at some point

BOB We will have to look at what date you started that

TMO (Rothuss Carder): whatever, doesn't matter.

BOB We will work it out

TMO (Rothuss Carder): so 1 week gone out of 10 needed. okie doke

BOB I will do Vee's fortune first then look that up

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I'm going to try and keep track of that, we'll see how it works out for me. ;)

TMO (Rothuss Carder): I don't have the greatest track record

Lemon (Levi Reed): Make a spreadsheet

BOB Vee is relaxing after a day with the fish, she comes back to the third floor of the church

TMO (Rothuss Carder): too practical

BOB to find her bed

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (and sad she still doesn't havea bed on the bottom floor in the water)

BOB as she relaxes she hears footsteps on the roof

BOB The river is still running over that floor

BOB later on as the waters receed it will be dry and you can sleep there

BOB if you want

BOB without being washed away

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (no she wants IN the water, hypothermia be damned!)

BOB LOL

BOB Vee hears foot steps on the roof

Vee Barlett: goes to investigate

Vee Barlett: grumblings all the way

BOB When she looks around there is no obvious way up there

BOB until she goes back out to the stair case on the outside of the Church, there is a ladder attached to the wall

Vee Barlett: climbs it quietly as she can

BOB make a dex check

Vee Barlett: [CHECK] Dexterity (vs. Target 15) [SUCCESS by 12] [d20 = 3]

BOB excellent

Vee Barlett: [SKILL] Observation [MOD:INT] (vs. Target 12) [SUCCESS by 10] [d20 = 2]

BOB Vee slips up the ladder silent as a thief

BOB goes onto the roof and then spots two people sitting across from each other on a blanket

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): She does so well she reverse falls up the ladder

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Lemon (Levi Reed): lol

Vee Barlett: just quietly watches for a moment to see what they're doing

Lemon (Levi Reed): A geyser comes out of nowhere and gently lifts her up to the roof, looking like Miss Piggy in the Great Muppet Caper

BOB She can see that they are using some sort of lenses to shine down onto a smaller silk covering

BOB (It is the evening of the 8th) Vee looks up to see both moons high in the sky, clear night, both at half moon

Vee Barlett: keeping her voice low to not startle them, "Whatcha doin' up here?"

BOB a musical voice

Chalsarda Starnar: Oh hello there

she smiles

Vee Barlett: Hi?

Chalsarda Starnar: Are you here to see your heart?

wyjyoon (Temperance): Does she have the same last name as one of the other priests? I can't remember.

'Shislif' connected

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Kali ma! Kali ma!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Allyna or something?

Vee Barlett: I'm here seein' what's makin' noise above my bed, but maybe that's the same thing? You priest talk funny enough it could be.

BOB and Melange follows Vee up to the roof to see what she is doing

Carissa (Vee Barlett): ooooh is Sharif here???

Vee Barlett: sadly FG is so bugged I don't know who is here, probably just me myself and I

BOB warm chuckle

Lemon (Levi Reed): Omg, yayyyyyy!

MeLange: Hey Vee! What ya doin?

Lemon (Levi Reed): baby!

Carissa (Vee Barlett): HE IS!!! Hi Sharif!!

wyjyoon (Temperance): Nice!

JtomTMO (Lirtimya): Hello

Shislif (MeLange): Hi hi, figured a few minutes is better than nothing :)

Vee Barlett: Melange! I thought all that diggin' would worn you out. I'm seein' who's makin' noise on the roof.

Carissa (Vee Barlett): vey much so

Carissa (Vee Barlett): Lemon made sure we delayed for the possibility, lol

MeLange: Oh ok. I am pretty worn out though, now that you mention it

Chalsarda Starnar: Come over and join us

Shislif (MeLange): lol thanks Lemon!

Vee Barlett: Well let's see what all this is about first, yeah? Then you can sleep.

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yes, Mel can get a fortune too!

Vee Barlett: walks over and joins them

Vee Barlett: Mystical priest stuff can be interestin'

Haats of Smelly Hill Tribe: Hey You said it was my night

MeLange: sleepily follows Vee

Carissa (Vee Barlett): smelly hill?

Chalsarda Starnar: Haats, you know you are always welcome

Chalsarda Starnar: but so are those who need guidence for other things

Chalsarda Starnar: You can stay to watch

Vee Barlett: Not sure what yer watchin' but sure? Sorry for interruptin'

Haats of Smelly Hill Tribe: Grumps, I guess

Levi Reed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4kdFN6jgb4&ab_channel=KazukiPrzyborowski%F0%9F%87%B5%F0%9F%87%B1

Chalsarda Starnar: Come Come sit

MeLange: Some people like to watch...

Vee Barlett: Haats is a nice name, for what that's worth.

Lemon (Levi Reed): links are broken?

Vee Barlett: sits down

Shislif (MeLange): whoa a unicorn!

Carissa (Vee Barlett): it's all borkennnn

BOB try Out of Character Lemon?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): and I noticed my typo but it feels like I need to keep it there

Lemon (Levi Reed): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4kdFN6jgb4&ab_channel=KazukiPrzyborowski%F0%9F%87%B5%F0%9F%87%B1

Lemon (Levi Reed): nope

Shislif (MeLange): strange

Carissa (Vee Barlett): guess you'll just have to sing it to us

Lemon (Levi Reed): I put it on the discord

Lemon (Levi Reed): Old meme from 24 years ago

Haats of Smelly Hill Tribe: Snorts, yeah, thanks

Haats of Smelly Hill Tribe: Me da gave it to me

Lemon (Levi Reed): jfc. I just realized that meme is almost as old as Wendy, and that hurts my soul.

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Chalsarda Starnar: You must be two of our new guests

Vee Barlett: My Pa gave me my name so more respect for yer name!

Chalsarda Starnar: What are your names?

Vee Barlett: Vee.

Vee Barlett: That's Melange.

Chalsarda Starnar: Urging her on, Vee.....

Vee Barlett: Barlett.

MeLange smiles and waves

Chalsarda Starnar: warm smile

Chalsarda Starnar: and you are Melange.....

MeLange: Yes maam, nice to meet you

Lemon (Levi Reed): Dang, she gave the real name

Vee Barlett: looks at Melange, questioninly.

Lemon (Levi Reed): Only MeLange knows that now, yeah?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): No she gave her last name which she'll sometimes do but not her first name

Lemon (Levi Reed): ohhh, ok

Vee Barlett: Do you have a last name Melange?

Vee Barlett: Guess I never asked...

Chalsarda Starnar: Everyone has three names

MeLange: I don't actually, my adopted family never gave me, so just first name for me

Vee Barlett: Three?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I think Matthias mentioned Vee's real name once during watch or something like that.

MeLange: Three?

Chalsarda Starnar: Your family name, your given name, and the name you give yourself

Vee Barlett: Hmm, yeah, makes sense.

MeLange: I can get behind that idea, especially the ones we give ourselves

Chalsarda Starnar: So Melange, you have a family name, you simply do not know it?

Lemon (Levi Reed): What if the name you give yourself is the same as your given name?

Lemon (Levi Reed): Asks Lemon.

Lemon (Levi Reed): But I meant for Levi.

MeLange: I suppose that's true, technically

Lemon (Levi Reed): Also, for the record, Lemon wasn't supposed to stick.

Chalsarda Starnar: Is that what you are here for? to find your family name?

Carissa (Vee Barlett): no it isn't because one is pronounced Levi but when he talks to himself it's pronounced Levi

Lemon (Levi Reed): Lol, true

MeLange: Sometimes, but I don't want to dissapoint myself either

Lemon (Levi Reed): He often introduced himself in the other pronunciation to keep things interesting

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

MeLange: when I get to thinking about it too much I get sad for days, so I try not to think about it

wyjyoon (Temperance): Lol

Vee Barlett: Now I remember why I never asked...

Chalsarda Starnar: I think that thinking can make us sad

Carissa (Vee Barlett): hell yeah it can

Chalsarda Starnar: And feeling can make us think

MeLange: hmm...

Chalsarda Starnar: She looks up at the moons and adjusts her lenses

MeLange: Guess that's why I prefer to do, and avoid that cycle

Lemon (Levi Reed): Yeah, thinking sucks.

MeLange: best I can at leasts

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Vee Barlett: And you do damn good

Chalsarda Starnar: So what fortune are you looking for Melange unknown?

MeLange: probably the good kind

MeLange: if I could choose

Chalsarda Starnar: All fortunes can be good, it depends on how you feel them

MeLange: But I suppose knowing where I came from, for better or worse, would be something worth knowing

MeLange: good point

Chalsarda Starnar: so sit here with me

MeLange: Ok

Chalsarda Starnar: scootch over Haats

MeLange: sits next to Chalsarda

MeLange: have Haats scootches

Haats of Smelly Hill Tribe: Shifts over off of the blanket to give them room

MeLange: thank you

Haats of Smelly Hill Tribe: Uh sure

MeLange: this is a nice blanket

Vee Barlett: Nice night to sit on one.

Chalsarda Starnar: [d12 = 9]

MeLange: nods in agreement

Chalsarda Starnar: Hold out your hand, palm up

Chalsarda Starnar: here in the circle

MeLange: holds out his right arm, palm up

Vee Barlett: watches the moons while they interact

MeLange gets a little nervous

Chalsarda Starnar: She takes his wrist and guides him to the center, then twists it a bit until both half moons are on his palm clearly

MeLange observes

Chalsarda Starnar: Then she slowly pushes his hand down until it lands on the silk

Chalsarda Starnar: Keep it there

Chalsarda Starnar: Stay steady

Chalsarda Starnar: she lets go of his wrist

Vee Barlett: shifts to watch what's going on

MeLange keeps his wrist in place

Chalsarda Starnar: and then refocuses the lenses again until they are back in alignment with both half moons on his plam again

Chalsarda Starnar: Now you can take your hand away

MeLange: pulls hand away from the silk

MeLange Thinks the silk felt really nice

BOB The two half moons highlight a triangle and a bird

BOB She looks up at Melange, You came from far away/

MeLange nods

BOB That is an albatros, they fly over long stretches of water

MeLange: mhmm

BOB The triangle could be several things

BOB It is the sign of building

Vee Barlett: mumurs, "Oh like Mr. Ross"

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (you're in GM mode not Chalsarda)

Chalsarda Starnar: She looks up at Melange, You came from far away/

Chalsarda Starnar: That is an albatros, they fly over long stretches of water

Vee Barlett: mumurs, "Oh like Mr. Ross"

Chalsarda Starnar: The triangle could be several things

Chalsarda Starnar: It is the sign of building

Carissa (Vee Barlett): (story chat person thanks you)

MeLange: like a specific building? Or like buildings in general?

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Chalsarda Starnar: I think a specific building

MeLange: oh ok

TMO (Rothuss Carder): *raises hand* pyramids

Lemon (Levi Reed): speaking of story chat... Wendy, do you feel like doing summary this week?

wyjyoon (Temperance): I don't mind! : )

MeLange: Does the building have any identifying marks? Something to help me know what to look for?

Chalsarda Starnar: It is a building far away that is your name

MeLange: oh really?

MeLange: Family name on a building? Interesting

Shislif (MeLange): hopefully not hotels lol

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Chalsarda Starnar: I cannot tell anything more here tonight, but if you come back on the first of Spring we can try again when both moons are full

Chalsarda Starnar: Smiles up at Vee

MeLange: That would be great! Thank you so much, although it would be nice to have a hint so I know what type of building to look for

Chalsarda Starnar: Did you want to hear a fortune?

Vee Barlett: In the meantime, we'll keep an eye out for buildin' with names on them if we travel that way, Melange.

Vee Barlett: Oh, yeah! I've been askin' around.

Chalsarda Starnar: Yes Melange unknown

MeLange: Thanks Vee, Thank you Chalsarda

Vee Barlett: Whatcha need me to do?

Chalsarda Starnar: What is your question? what do you seek?

Vee Barlett: Hmm...

Vee Barlett: I ain't completely sure? Some interestin' event comin' up? Maybe a big break? Feel like I'm just followin' the tide lately rather than settin' my own sails, ya know?

Chalsarda Starnar: Come sit

Vee Barlett: is already sitting so shimmies over closer

Chalsarda Starnar: She picks up her silk cloth and shakes it out, twists it and runs it through a large silver ring

Chalsarda Starnar: Spinning it around

Vee Barlett: watches with interest

Chalsarda Starnar: She slows it down and lets the ring fall off of the cloth onto the blanket

Chalsarda Starnar: She then lays the silk cloth over the ring

Chalsarda Starnar: Holding out a small bag she offers it to Vee

Chalsarda Starnar: Pull out what you want and drop it onto the cloth

Vee Barlett: nods, reaches into the bag blindly, and drops something on the cloth.

BOB Vee feels several small coins and a couple of rings inside the bag

Carissa (Vee Barlett): grabs one of the rings

Vee Barlett: grabs one of the rings

Chalsarda Starnar: Watches the ring drop and bounce on the cloth

TMO (Rothuss Carder): #SauronLikedThis

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Chalsarda Starnar: then she slides her hand under the cloth to take the other ring in one hand

Chalsarda Starnar: and pinches the cloth around the other ring Vee dropped

Vee Barlett: keeps watching with interest

Chalsarda Starnar: She lifts both hands and the silk cloth slides through the larger ring until it it stopped by the small bunched portion around Vee's chosen ring

MeLange: also watches, with somewhat less interest

Chalsarda Starnar: Pulling harder on the silk cloth and rapidly turning it over

Chalsarda Starnar: Causing the silk to drop to the ground with the large ring highlighting a ship and a triangle

Lemon (Levi Reed): spit it out already lady

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Vee Barlett: perks up at seeing a ship

Chalsarda Starnar: Then she slowly opens up the bunched cloth and a bird appears

Vee Barlett: sighs

MeLange 's eyes widen

Vee Barlett: You gonna tell me I'm gonna do what I already expected?

Chalsarda Starnar: I think this wil make you feel

Vee Barlett: Feel what?

Chalsarda Starnar: You will have a ship, you will have a home? a building?

Chalsarda Starnar: But you will have to stop traveling for that to happen

Vee Barlett: raises a brow

Vee Barlett: Why would I stop travelin'? Sea is my home. I hate bein' away from it.

MeLange: it's true, she does

Shislif (MeLange): Houseboat!

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol

Chalsarda Starnar: Perhaps it is you have to travel to get them? I know you would feel that more, but the traveling was caught, stopped, and it seems to be something that ......

Chalsarda Starnar: As I said when we feel it causes us to think

Vee Barlett: You sure it ain't just tellin ya that I'm gonna be helpin' Melange with his buildin' problems?

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Chalsarda Starnar: It could be that you continue traveling and until you stop that you will not have your home

Vee Barlett: frowns

Vee Barlett: That don't make sense.

Chalsarda Starnar: That seems more poetic than fortune

MeLange: they say to the Nomad, the land is their home

Vee Barlett: Maybe I shoulda asked a better question. This is just all kinds of not clear.

Chalsarda Starnar: If you were one of the flying folk I would say it meant you were home traveling

Shislif (MeLange): brb refill

User has gone AFK. (Shislif)

Vee Barlett: Well I don't fly but I got a bird that does.

Chalsarda Starnar: Think about this

Chalsarda Starnar: you came on an auspicous night

Vee Barlett: Mkay...

Chalsarda Starnar: It means something

Vee Barlett: Mkay......

Chalsarda Starnar: if it was easy or clear the Gods would not keep these gifts to only a few

Vee Barlett: Mkay........

Chalsarda Starnar: I will leave it to you to think on what the omens could mean

Vee Barlett: Are all omens bad?

Chalsarda Starnar: Not at all

Vee Barlett: Is this one bad?

Chalsarda Starnar: Haats was asking about the spring foaling season

Chalsarda Starnar: I do not think your is bad, but it depends on how you feel about it

Vee Barlett: Well, it's remindin' me I ain't on the sea right now and I'm supposin' that makes me not happy to hear that'll happen again, yeah?

Vee Barlett: No offense to you. I appreciate ya tryin' to clear up the murk for me.

Chalsarda Starnar: If you have the chance share this with others who might help clear it up for you

Vee Barlett: I'll think about it, but ain't sure yet if I will.

Vee Barlett: Thank ya, priestess.

Chalsarda Starnar: Thank you Vee Barlett

Vee Barlett: yawns and stands up

Vee Barlett: Alright, time for bed, Melange. We both need it.

MeLange: but I'm not sleepy!

MeLange yawns

Vee Barlett: Nice meetin' both of ya. Good luck with the foali' Haat.

Haats of Smelly Hill Tribe: Could it be she will not stop traveling?

MeLange: a shark stops moving... it dies...

Chalsarda Starnar: Smiles

Vee Barlett: Hmm, I'll go to bed thinkin' maybe that's what it is.

Chalsarda Starnar: I cannot say

Chalsarda Starnar: But I do feel you thinking on this will be good for you

Vee Barlett: Yeah, unless it sours my mood then I'll stop thinkin' abotu it for a bit.

Vee Barlett: smiles

MeLange: hey, feeling leading to thinking

Vee Barlett: And rum stops that thinkin' when it gets too much. Might need to stock up on some more....

Chalsarda Starnar: She starts to pack up her gear

Chalsarda Starnar: Good night

Vee Barlett: Night, Priestess. Haat.

MeLange: gets up

MeLange: good night Prietess, it was a pleasure to meet you

BOB And you make your way back down the ladder and into the dorms on the third floor

TMO (Rothuss Carder): Du. Du Haast. Du Haast Mich.

Shislif (MeLange): lol

Lemon (Levi Reed): Was it a pleasure, though?

Shislif (MeLange): Always remind me of Freeway, that weird David Lynch movie

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol probably for at least melange

Carissa (Vee Barlett): vee has thinking to do

BOB For Wendy and Lemon one thing you might want to do is look ove the various priests and people you met and add them to the Student Loans page so you can easily remember who to talk to later on when you return here or to the Temple

Shislif (MeLange): yea "look for a building far away" so helpful lol

Carissa (Vee Barlett): lol good point

Carissa: but at least it was clear directions! not you might stop traveling, or keep traveling, and there is a house maybe somewhere

wyjyoon (Temperance): I'll go over names and people when I'm writing summaries!

Shislif (MeLange): lol true

Carissa: but that's the fun of fortune telling

BOB I am glad you enjoyed it

Carissa: well someone needs to ask for them!

Carissa: now that we don't have indigo

BOB I am going to travel off on a short journey to bed

Lemon (Levi Reed): We really should make an alphabetical list of NPCs somewhere...

BOB leaving this up fo reveryone

wyjyoon (Temperance): I can try to do that

Carissa: Vee only keeps track of the ones she cares about
