[MarioCS] Hi carissa
[Carissa] Hello!
[Lisa] Hi Carissa
[Lisa] headline I just passed over: A Franz Kafka Video Game Is Coming But Who Cares Since Life Is Pointless and Nothing Matters
[Master] the goal for tonight is to get through mid day encounters, eveining encounters and any more talking and interviewing you want to accomplish
[Master] HAH
[MarioCS] lol
[Carissa] I think I need that game
[Lisa] lol
[Carissa] And only going to be one for about an hour or so tonight. Still haven't packed and cat proofed the apartment yet.
[Carissa] *on
[Master] ouch
[Master] so jumping right into it
[Lisa] and I am almost asleep right now
[Master] what questions did you want to ask?
[Master] Lisa and Mario posted a good summary
[Master] I hope you saw that Carissa
[Carissa] I mean, it's me so "hour" is like "one more chapter" so..
[Master] grins
[Carissa] Er...ask me again in a minute and then I can say yes!
[MarioCS] i thought of one for Billy: Does the patrol that leaves at night come here to get the wine?
[Master] Lacking Snee who will be your questioner?
[Master] Teb?
[MarioCS] I am back at the keyboard.
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] yes?
[Lisa] Let Shi ask questions since Carissa is having an early night
[Master] ok
[Lisa] or we can have the sword do it :)
[MarioCS] Teb would just wig the goblin out. look what he does to Branadarus
[Lisa] lol
[Carissa] Er, tell me what questions. Even with the list keeping it straight is just not going for me.
[MarioCS] we dont have an hour for one question from Teb
[Carissa] Haha
[MarioCS] Does the patrol that leaves at night come here to get the wine?
[Master] that is or you Carissa,
[Master] they designated Shi as the questioner
[Carissa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] so when you have the wording and choices
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Getting there, getting there.
[Master] fire away
[MarioCS] if the goblin patrol who ambushed Bran and Bran came from above, what is the tunnel used for?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Shoot why isn't Kel doing the questions?
[Master] and please do remember one word answers are coming
[MarioCS] and how did Scruffy know it locks/opens from the other side?
[Indigo (Lisa)] very complicated question
[Indigo (Lisa)] s
[MarioCS] those last onnes are for us to comtemplate
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (I thought we asked Scruffy how to open it, didn't we?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] for us too
[MarioCS] and he said it opened from the other side
[MarioCS] so he had to have been on the other side
[Master] you can talk, I will take a real question when you say, Scruffy.....
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Ah but never told us how)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Yep getting my wording, one sec)
[MarioCS] OHHHH, i forgot, he didnt come from above, the other crew did
[Master] NOT hurrying you
[MarioCS] he was already here
[Master] take your time and do this right
[MarioCS] either way, he DID say the crew was getting wine, so why didnt they use the tunnel?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Longer I take, longer I'm here, too :P)
Shi'Nynze (Carissa) uncomfortably shifts a little closer to Billy and Scuffy.
[Master] Shi'Nynze moved 5'05".
[MarioCS] brb
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Er, Scruffy, can you ask Billy if the patrol that leaves is coming to get wine?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Ha)
[Master] yes
[Scruffy (Master)] Yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] (was that the goblin patrol or the bugbear patrol?)d
[Indigo (Lisa)] (not to make things confusing)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the bugbear patrol coming here to get wine?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Was thinking the same, no worries)
[Scruffy (Master)] No
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Only the goblin patrol was getting wine?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Were they getting it for themselves?
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes
[MarioCS] back
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Hmm...
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] You came through the tunnel, correct?
[Scruffy (Master)] (he does answer more than yes, no, maybe, he knows other words but only uses them one at a time)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Not sure that's helpful unless someone else can think how to figure out where the wine goes)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Was the patrol coming here going to use the tunnel?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the entrance to the tunnel near the trapdoor?
[Scruffy (Master)] Yes
[Jilly (Master)] Billy, who is the wine for?
[MarioCS] (where did the patrol come from, before getting wine?)
Shi'Nynze (Carissa) asking the others, Maybe he could show us?"
[Scruffy (Master)] King
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Thanks Jilly!)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] King Bugbear?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did the patrol coming to get the wine come from where the king is?
[Scruffy (Master)] No
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the wine a tribute of some sort?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do the bugbears know where you keep the wine?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] laughs

[MarioCS] (im taking notes again of the interrogation)
[Scruffy (Master)] (Hey there Michael)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Hi Michael!)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Hi Michael!)
[MarioCS] Hi Michael
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the wine your only gift to the bugbears?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[mharm-15549] No volunteering today so i'm really early! Also Lisa, that game was one of the most disturbing things I've ever played. And, i've played some messed up stuff. Also Hello Everyone!
[Indigo (Lisa)] (sorry)
[mharm-15549] Great game thank you!
[Indigo (Lisa)] (it is a tad ...dark)
[mharm-15549] (Just saying)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Can you tell us how to open the tunnel from the other side, Scruffy?
[mharm-15549] :)
[Scruffy (Master)] Yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Will you tell us or would you want to show us?
[MarioCS] (is the tunnel lit?)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the tunnel lit?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is it empty?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is it dangerous?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Playing a game of 21 questions it feels like)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] What else is in the tunnel?
[MarioCS] Will he introduce us to the king bugbear?
[mharm-15549] (I forgot about the one word responses. Sigh. :) )

TMO has received the map Base Map.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (He knows the word king, though!)
[Scruffy (Master)] Gel
[mharm-15549] HEY TMO!!!
[Scruffy (Master)] worms
[MarioCS] he knows words, just one at a time
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Hi TMO!)
[Scruffy (Master)] rats
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Gel?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Hi TMO :) )
[Scruffy (Master)] mold
[TMO] (hey y'all. not quite here yet, need to fix dinner for the kids. then will be with you)
[Scruffy (Master)] (all words that come to mind when you say TMO ;P )
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Make me some too, please! ;) )
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Ahaha ouch)
[TMO] you're just jealous, Bob
[Scruffy (Master)] LOL
[TMO] of what, I'm not sure
[TMO] but it's definitely jealousy
[Indigo (Lisa)] lol
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] So gel?
[Scruffy (Master)] small
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Er, still not quite sure what small gel is...
[MarioCS] Hi TMO
[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Will you demonstrate to us how to open the tunnel right now? In this room?
[Scruffy (Master)] (spring will be in, just late)
[Scruffy (Master)] no no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you need to go up to do it?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] there
Scruffy (Master) pointing to the other side of the casks
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Any other questions or want him to show us how to open it?
[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.
[MarioCS] (i dont think he can; we figured out it only opens from the other side, hence he said No No
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Ah good point)
[MarioCS] can he introduce us to the King Bugbear? whats the celebration? Harvest, birthday
[MarioCS] new shoes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Ah right)
[MarioCS] brb
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Would you introduce us to the king, Scruffy?
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is there a celebration going on?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you get him wine every night?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is it his birthday?
Scruffy (Master) looks puzzled
Scruffy (Master) not understanding the questoin
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Not surprised...
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is he celebrating a recent conquest?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Or the addition of more treasure?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does he drink wine each time he gets more treasure?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you know where his recent treasure came from?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] How do you know when to get him wine?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do they tell you?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do they only bother you for wine? They leave you alone otherwise?
[Scruffy (Master)] no no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Does he know what the treasure was?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you know what treasure he recently acquired?
[Scruffy (Master)] magic
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Wand?
Indigo (Lisa) mutters "Great"
Scruffy (Master) shrugs
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Hmm...
[Scruffy (Master)] (Michael? you read the summary? add to the ideas)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do bugbears keep hostages?
[MarioCS] is the treasure consist of new weapons?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Yes a hostage? Do they have one now?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is it a wizard?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the new treasure a weapon?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does the new treasure incude a weapon?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (might be more than a weapon)
[MarioCS] what kind? he may know weapons, he knew bow
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] When you bring the king wine, does he let you all leave after?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does the treasure he has include a sword?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] pick?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] A pick?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (What else?)
Indigo (Lisa) sighs
[Indigo (Lisa)] (just the bow I think)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] A bow?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Yeah he might have a ton of weapons...)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (could ask - is sword silver?)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] An elven bow?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Shi'Nynze (Carissa) tries to hide excitement
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does the king ever give his treasure away?
[Indigo (Lisa)] lol
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Scruffy (Master) holds up his hand with a ring on it
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Only to goblins?
[Indigo (Lisa)] wow
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Nice ring...
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you exchange wine for treasure?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Darn.
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you exchange wine for some of the treasure?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you have to give more than wine to get treasure?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] What do you give? (Worth a try)
[Scruffy (Master)] wine
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Just wine?
[MarioCS] Lets poison the wine w sleepy time drugs, knock them out, walts in and out
[MarioCS] yay!
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] So can't just poison the wine. What else, I wonder?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Wine and a hostage?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[TMO] (fireballs)
[TMO] (many)
[MarioCS] lol
[Scruffy (Master)] lots
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you know what the king does with the hostages?
[Scruffy (Master)] plays
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (That sounds ominous)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do the hostages...surviving playing?
[Scruffy (Master)] sometimes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you know where the hostages come from?
[MarioCS] any idea about previous hostage races?
[MarioCS] aha
[Scruffy (Master)] lots
[Scruffy (Master)] everywhere
[MarioCS] Does every one drink the wine, or just the king?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is it only the king who drinks the wine?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (How do we figure out what else they give him besides wine?)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do only the bugbears drink wine?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[TMO] (delayed blast fireball in every cup)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you also drink the wine?
[Scruffy (Master)] pretend
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the wine untampered when you give it to him?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you poison it?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[MarioCS] Sneaky devil
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] That's probably why they all get away.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Do you make the king sleepy with the wine?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Scruffy (Master) grins
Shi'Nynze (Carissa) smiles "Smart."
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] If the king wasn't sleepy, would he prevent you from leaving?
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Scruffy (Master)] try
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the stuff you put in the wine here?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is it back home?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Would he accept an offering of wine from someone other than goblins?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Did I already ask that?)
[MarioCS] no
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] What do you put in the wine?
[Scruffy (Master)] roots
[MarioCS] can we get some outside here?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Shi and Branwyn have herbalism nwp - might be able to work with him on that)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Was just looking at that, would be useful)
[TMO] (Ilero has Foraging)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (So the three of them could figure out what roots)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Are these roots available near here?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (hopefully)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (brb)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-15549] (Interesting plan I think)
[Scruffy (Master)] Valerian
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Valerian?)
[MarioCS] )isnt he on Game of Thromes?)
[TMO] (up the drugs, raid the keep after the party, bribe Scruffy's help by letting him get all the goblins out during the fight)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Oooh all-heal. Thanks Wiki!)
[MarioCS] (sounds like it could work, kill as few as possible, those on guard duty)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Are there goblins hostage, Scruffy?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Are they important to you?
[MarioCS] (did we ask WHEN is the celebration? is anyone outside coming? like another king?)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is the celebration today?
Scruffy (Master) shrugs
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does the celebration last more than a day?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (How would Billy fit into this plan? Scruffy would probably help save the hostages, but does Billy have any reason to help?)
[Scruffy (Master)] sometimes
[MarioCS] besides death?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Well true there is always that route, but I doubt Jilly would take kindly to killing him)
[MarioCS] (if we could trust him, or at least undertsnad what he is saying, he could talk us in)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I was going to see if we could ask billy more questions)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (If you have questions for Billy, go for it. I'm running out)
[MarioCS] Ill post these for Scruffy
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (And, you know, putting off packing another hour won't hurt, right?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (have to translate what is in my mind to yes/no)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I thought you were travelling last week. 2 weeks in a row or I am confused?)
[Scruffy (Master)] (smile)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Confused. Only traveling this weekend :) )
[Indigo (Lisa)] :)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ask Billy if he likes the King
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy, could you ask Billy is he likes his king?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] *if he lkes not is he like
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Scruffy (Master)] (re read your question)
[MarioCS] Posted
[Indigo (Lisa)] (yes - thought it was nicer than does he hate the king)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Haha true)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Would Billy die for his king?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Well shoot)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Would he hurt us if he could?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Has Billy been able to understand our conversation?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Would he hurt us if he could?
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Indigo (Lisa)] would he hurt Jilly?
[MarioCS] I think BIlly stays behind; he witnessed us befriending Scruffy
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Would Billy hurt Jilly?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] (off on a tangent for a sec)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (True)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Tangent away)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (cuz everyone loves Jilly even bugbears)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Billy can stay back with Jilly and have a party)
[MarioCS] lol
[MarioCS] we come back, he's dressed in a gown with a tiara
[MarioCS] ive seen many a sitcom
[mharm-15549] BRB, wrangling dogs
[Indigo (Lisa)] Can you tell Billy that all we want is our weapons.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Do we need to ask Scruffy how they use valerian? Or could we figure it out? Not sure if herbalism/anti-venom/foraging would cover that skill)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy, could you tell Billy we only want our weapons back and ask if he can help us get them?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Scruffy (Master)] (again re read your question)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does he want something in return?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (mine wasn't really a question - more of a hope of a message)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we can split that in 2 parts)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Reread as in Scuffy said yes he can tell him but didn't actually tell him?)
[Scruffy (Master)] (bingo)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy, ask Billy if he likes his king.
[Scruffy (Master)] No
[Scruffy (Master)] (answering your qestion after going back and forth)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] No Billy does not like his king?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy, please ask Billy if he could get us our weapons back from the king.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (well that changes everything)
[Scruffy (Master)] hard
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (I was worried it wasn't clear)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy, do you mean it would be hard to get our weapons from the king?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] But not impossible...
[MarioCS] Why?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (We still don't know how Scruffy got his ring)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (And why is very open-ended. How do we do yes/no?)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy, can you ask Billy if the king has ever given a weapon away?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Wait.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Do guards drink wine at celebrations?
[Scruffy (Master)] (grins)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy. Ask Billy if the king has ever given a weapon awa.
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Please also ask him if the guards also drink wine during the celebrations.
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Poisoning the wine still sounds like a good idea)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Scruffy, did you steal that ring when you poisoned the wine?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (especially if the guards also get soused)
[MarioCS] (get as many as we can down ( sleepy, etc) then deal w the rest)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Was it difficult to do?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[MarioCS] Is it magical?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did you almost get caught?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] smart
Shi'Nynze (Carissa) nods in agreement, "You are."
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did the bugbears stay asleep long?
[Scruffy (Master)] sometimes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] How long? One hour?
[Scruffy (Master)] sometimes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Sorry, jumped back to Scruffy. Not sure what to ask Billy yet)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Would they be asleep enough to free the hostages?
[MarioCS] is the stolem ring magical? why did he want it?
Scruffy (Master) no answer , mouth opens and closes, then stops
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Ok....is the ring you stole special?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Is it magical?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[MarioCS] is magic to a goblin justthat it sparkles?
[MarioCS] what does it do?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] What does the ring do?
[Scruffy (Master)] strong
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] It makes you stronger?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ahhh
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Nice.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Have you tried to free the hostages before?
Indigo (Lisa) looks over at Shur and nods
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did goblins die when you tried?
[Scruffy (Master)] sometimes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Are the hostages near the treasure hoard?
[MarioCS] Did the ring help?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Too much hope forthat...)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did you use the ring to try to free the hostages?
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Have you tried to free the hostages more than once?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did you steal the ring to try to free them?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] How did you know about the ring?
[Scruffy (Master)] voice
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Uhh...
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] Like Me??
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did the ring speak to you...?
Scruffy (Master) startles and YES
[Scruffy (Master)] No
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Er, so what voice?
[Scruffy (Master)] magic
Scruffy (Master) points to Teb
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] A magic sword told you to steal the ring?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[MarioCS] i say. Good Sir, I did not command you to steal a ring
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] We weren't accusing you of such, Teb.
[MarioCS] darn, thats is in Teb voice
[Scruffy (Master)] (Michael, back?)
[Scruffy (Master)] (ideas?)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Haha figured)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did the voice come from an object?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did the voice tell you to keep the ring?
[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.
[Scruffy (Master)] (Marlins pitcher just got his first big league hit!!! has been in the majors for several years, was close to 70 at bats with never getting a hit)
[Scruffy (Master)] (Yay!)
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Nice!!)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] So someone is playing the goblins...
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did you plan to give the ring to the voice?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Can the voice move?
[Scruffy (Master)] noi
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] So an inanimate object...
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Did the voice tell you why it wants the ring?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] ANother speaking item? Do I have a partner?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Well if you do, it isn't a sword.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] We know that much.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Will the voice be mad if it doesn't get the ring?
Scruffy (Master) puzzled, not sure how to answer
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] (do we know the voice wants the ring?)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does the voice want the ring?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Does the voice want to help you?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[TMO] (it's going to be hilarious reading you guys attempting to explain all of this to Ilero and Shur later. ;) )
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (But somehow this voice is knows the ring exists...)
[Scruffy (Master)] (Branwyn can make an Intuition check)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] (ya, maybe another treasure item)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] (offered assistance to get out)
[Scruffy (Master)] (and Teb can doo)
[Scruffy (Master)] too
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] Teb doesnt ave skills
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Not it to explaining :)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] lol
[Scruffy (Master)] (yes he does, it is on his sheet you can roll there)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] Hey! Teb has a charcter sheet!
Spring has joined the game on Fri Apr 07 20:31:13 EDT 2017
Spring is receiving the map Base Map...
Spring has received the map Base Map.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Haha)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Hi Spring!)
[Scruffy (Master)] (Hey Spring)
[TMO] (hi!)
[Spring] Hallooo
[Spring] Hi hi
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: INU check: (d20) [1d20=11] 11 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 11!!
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] Tebhoundrin: LED check: (d20) [1d20=20] 20 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] lol, fitting
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Of course)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Hi Spring)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] HI Spring
[Spring] hiya
[Spring] hey hey
[Scruffy (Master) (to Lisa only)] Branwyn knows there is a spell called Magic Mouth, would be a magic voice
Branwyn (Lisa) raises her head a bit "magic mouth"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Spell. It might be.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You set words for an object
[Branwyn (Lisa)] A message
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] So the object looks to talk, but it's only a spell?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So tired still.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You can make a scroll say a message upon opening it for example
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Good to know, but don't strain yourself. You still need rest.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Much better than hellhounds
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
Shi'Nynze (Carissa) smiles, "I would think so."
[Kel (MarioCS)] anything is better than those
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Has this voice talked to you often, Scruffy?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Branwyn (Lisa)] same message?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Branwyn (Lisa) nods
[Scruffy (Master)] (sorry anticipated Shi)
[Kel (MarioCS)] where, and what? hairbrush? mirror, oh please be a mirror!)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Haha was typing it and stopped when you answered)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Sounds like a spell and not like Teb
[mharm-15549] back. puppies are hard. lol
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] I am, as they say, one of a kind
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] In so many ways...
Branwyn (Lisa) chuckles
[Scruffy (Master)] (Michael and SPring Mario posted earlier questions, but not quite all of them)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] I can post what i have so far, to be appended with more as we go..
[mharm-15549] i'll take a look. Same web adress right?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Anyone want to take over questions? Need to eat and pack? Because let's face it, probably hanging around a little longer)
[Scruffy (Master)] (grins)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (*I need to eat and pack aka be semi-afk)
[mharm-15549] I'll take over for you. Just let me see what up real quick
[Master] will go get drinks while you all organize
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-15549] also may need a small refresher from you all
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Mario is posting it so hopefully that'll refresh but:)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] posted all questions asked tonight. in order, verbatim answers
[Spring] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.WR-OOC
[mharm-15549] If you gotta pack, thats fne Carissa. Trust me, I konw the feeling :)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Scruffy says wine is given to bugbears, they poison it with sleeping roots, there are hostages with the bugbears, Billy hates the king, a mysterious voice told Scruffy to steal a ring of strength)
[Spring] :-)
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] brb walk Coal
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (I think that's the main points?)
[MarioCS] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-15549] Sounds like a plan? What do you want to know?
[mharm-15549] Sometimes, just keeping it simple really is nice
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (We're trying to figure out what the voice is right now. It's from a magic spell, but who casts it?)
[mharm-15549] So that is our current question. Alright, when bob gets back, I'll take over quesitons. I'll switch over to Hugh now
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not sure we can figure that out at this point)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Also trying to figure out a plan to get inside. Scruffy has tried to free hostages before and stole the ring so if he can give us more ideas for planning out how to steal...)
[mharm-15549] I am back at the keyboard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we can do the - do you know where they kepp the hostages?)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Maybe ask if the goblins have had visitrors?)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Yeah, any layout of the keep and ideas of patrols or the like)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (try a where but if not run through the top level, basement, ground floor thing)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Okay semi-afk)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] The real question is how to move beyond one word answers into complex question and answers. Is bran actually like coherant now?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (OOC)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she is conscious but cannot do anything of any substance)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she pokes her head up now and again)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Did we already begin teh session with healing her? Didn't bob say we could do some healing?)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (I neer her spells right now to make this conversation easier with the goblin)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not til tomorrow)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Goblin classified as monster?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we'll help - we try to toss questions in a good format)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sometimes we succeed :) )
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Need to look something up real quick :)
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Does anyone have the spell Uplift?
[Spring] looking
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Also bob is goblin a monster?
[Master] yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] okay, do two players have Uplift?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] LOL
[Spring] i will have uplift when i gain more levels
[Master] Uplift only works with the same religion
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] *Sigh*
[Master] so all Kayugan priests can help each other
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it's been going well - really - just give it a shot)
[Master] all Greek priests
[Master] but not combined
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (worse thing that happens is he says yes no maybe all in one answer)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Look, I really want to help with quesitons. but the one word answers will likely make me a tad impagitant. So, if you are fine with me being a little short tempered haha, I can do this
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Alright.
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Round One
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Fight!
[Master] if you want to be short tempered with your informant
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Not my character. ME)
[Master] ok
[Master] grins
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (One moment. Reviewing Quesitons :) )
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Sorry, little hard to condense complex questions into small simple sentances. I'll start witht the voice I guess. Any objections?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] nope
[MarioCS] I am back at the keyboard.
Branwyn (Lisa) pops her head back up "If it is a spell it could have been cast a ways back, Scruffy wouldn't know the mage most likely"
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Bob. May I make a INU roll to help me with this session and understanding the complexities of this conversation. With the understanding I'm trying to use my linguistics to understand slight nuances in communication with him?
[Scruffy (Master)] sure
[Spring] i cant believe i'm dozing off already
[Spring] exhausting week
[Scruffy (Master)] (fully understand Spring)
TMO gives Spring a nice caffeinated drink.
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Hugh D'Ambray: INU check: (d20) [1d20=16] 16 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Well darn
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] okay i'll do my best
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Scruffy? Is it alright if I speak to you?
[TMO] you also have Persuasion. Might be helpful
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Are we trying to persuade him to do something? While I question him regarding the voice send me a IM and I'll look it over.)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] This voice you hear.
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] Do you know where the voice comes from?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Does it sound male?
[TMO] (not that I know of. But persuading him to elaborate on his aswers might be a use)
[Scruffy (Master)] No
[Scruffy (Master)] female
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] ( I don't think it's a matter of elaboration but not capable of complex sentance structure.)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (But i'll keep it in mind)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Is it a rough voice?)
[MarioCS] he knows more than yes/no, just one word answers
[MarioCS] he knew sword, bow king, etc
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Also that one answer that made us look like idiots. :) )
[MarioCS] Does the voice come from the treasure room?
[Scruffy (Master)] (currently only responding to Hugh)
[MarioCS] (yes, please)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (LOL)
[MarioCS] ( can t record and type all at omce!)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Does the voice come from the treasure room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Can you identify the race of the spellcaster?
[Scruffy (Master)] who
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (My reasoning is that different races, cultrues speak with different rythm, enunciation, etc)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Trying to use my linguistics with all I got LOL)
[MarioCS] Where was he standing when he hears the voice?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Good one)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Do you remember where exactly you were when you heard this voice?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Does this voice instruct you to harm yourself or others?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Where were you when you heard this voice?
[Scruffy (Master)] King
[MarioCS] (aha!)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Were you standing next to the King?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Were you in the King's treasure room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[MarioCS] in the kings room? throne room?/ do bugbear kings have more than one room?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Were you in the Kings Living Quarters?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Were you in the Throne Romm?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (So Throne Room)
[MarioCS] close to the king? other side of the room?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Could you tell where in the throne room this voice emanated from?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Scruffy (Master)] mirror
[MarioCS] lol nice!
[MarioCS] OH> MY>> GOD!!!!!
[MarioCS] YES!!!!!
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Mirror Mirror on the Wall,
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] What did this Mirror Look Like?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] what does mirror say?
[Scruffy (Master)] big
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] If I lined up with my companions, would it be bigger then us in a row?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] How many of (me) would it take in a row
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] one? Two? Three?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] is it bigger than a bugbear?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Is it bigger than a bugbear?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (It's actually a mirror?? Ha!)
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Can I carry it?
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Hugh D'Ambray: MUSC check: (d20) [1d20=10] 10 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 18!!
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] How about now?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] bigger than Scruffy?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Is it bigger than you?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Can you describe this mirror? Any words you can use?
[Scruffy (Master)] talks
Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) pulls out writing implements and paper to write this down
[MarioCS] Im sure we can find it in the htrone room, after we take it over
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Very god
[Spring] frame is Silver? gold? iron? wood?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (This might be important mario. I don't want a god walking out and slaughetring us after the bugbears are asleep LOL)
[Spring] no frame?
[MarioCS] agreed on that!!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] but the mirror says the same thing over and over
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Just giving you a hard time. :) Probably wouldn't happen. I just don't take bob for granted anymore haha)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What does mirror say to Scruffy?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Does the Mirror have writing on it Scruffy?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (yes to lisa one momoent)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Scruffy can you look at something for me?)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) pulls out a paper and jots down a few random sentances with the languages: W. Comm. C. Comm. Jotun. Do any of these lines look like what was on the mirror?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (So definitely something weird)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Can mirrors be used to spying? As in could someone be using the mirror to see into the throne room?)
[Scruffy (Master)] (Branwyn can make an Intiution check at a plus 6)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: INU check: (d20) [1d20=3] 3 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 11!!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Billy might know about the mirror too since he has been to the keep
[Scruffy (Master) (to Lisa only)] magical writings are in their own language, all magic items woudl be inscribed with magical writing
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (that was Lisa INU)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Billy?)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Does this mirror have a frame Scruffy?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If it was a magical mirror the writing would probably be magical
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Yep)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Billy the Bugbear)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Trying to identify what we're up against. Might be a doorway)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Paranoid extreme over here)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Can you make pictures Scruffy?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[MarioCS] frane is a good question, helps a lot. doorway? better identify it
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[MarioCS] (Bob, did Scruffy answer the frame Q?)
[Scruffy (Master)] (yes mirror has a frame, yes he can draw pictures)
[MarioCS] thanks!!
Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Carefully holds out a small piece of parchement and quill. Can you do a basic sketch? Doens't need to be perfect. Just what it generally looks like.
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Not sure what to expect really)
Scruffy (Master) draws a large oval
[MarioCS] aha, right on!
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (That helps)
[MarioCS] framed in what?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] What is it framed in scruffy? Wood? Metal? The Wall?
[Scruffy (Master)] Silver
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Is writing on the silver or the mirror itself?
[Scruffy (Master)] silver
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Maybe the enchantment comes from the frame. Take the mirror out and the enchantment doesn't work?)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (One moment. thinking)
[MarioCS] easier to carry home anyway
[MarioCS] the phrase it repeats?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] If I were to look in this mirror would I see anything different than I would see in a normal mirror?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] If the King looks in the mirror would he see anything different than a normal mirror?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (But how did this mirror know about the ring specifically?)
[MarioCS] (if you said Bloody Mary three times?)
[Scruffy (Master)] Branwyn can get an Intuition check on that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: INU check: (d20) [1d20=12] 12 - ROLL FAILED against 11!!
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Can Hugh try for that? Wisdom? Knowledge?
[Scruffy (Master) (to Lisa only)] Branwyn knows that Magic Mouth has a specific trigger
[MarioCS] Teb?
[Scruffy (Master)] any magic user can
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ask him what the mirror said
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] one moment
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Neith of Inholt: INU check: (d20) [1d20=7] 7 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!
[Scruffy (Master)] Neith is a priestess not a magic user
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Oops
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] Magic Mirror? that whole keep must be evil
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] And it speaks? huh
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Spells like that usually work on a trigger. Like I said with the scroll
[Branwyn (Lisa)] open the scroll - hear the message
[Tebhoundrin (MarioCS)] Always the same message? does he know?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I keep asking to ask)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] what is the message?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Scruffy. When you first heard the voice. Was there something odd happening in the Throne room at the time. Something that happens differently then any other day?
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes maybe
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Yes)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (one moment)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] While I formulate that question
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] What did the voice say?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (For you Lisa :) )
[Scruffy (Master)] magioc
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thank you)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (There you go. Follow up on that Lisa haha?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh! It spoke a magical language?
[MarioCS] does it say words? ring? could it see the ring from where it was hanging?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Was it a magical language Scruffy?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It just said - magic
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well, that is direct
[MarioCS] (if so, how did he know the ring was magic?hmmm...)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Does the bugbear king know how to activate it?)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] If I brought a magic item in front of this mirror. Would it demand I give the magic item to the mirror?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Any Magic Item?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (he could tell after he put it on)
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] If I brought TEB in front of the mirror would it be interested in him?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Or, did the king steal the mirror? Wonder if its origin is the keep)
Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) shows sword
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Don't cut my hand of Mario Oops. Sorry)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Also ignore me if the questions were asked; trying to keep up)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It's either treasure or he has a mage in the keep)
[MarioCS] does the mirror detect magic items?
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Did the first magic thing come into contact with the mirror be the ring?
[MarioCS] like Bran can't?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she can too!)
Scruffy (Master) shrugs
[MarioCS] lol, oh, which spell doesnt she have?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she just can't STOP magic :) )
[MarioCS] aha, dispel!
[MarioCS] lol
Scruffy (Master) shrugging
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] If I somehow got the ring and brought it too the mirror. What would happen? Or if you brought the ring?
[Scruffy (Master)] (again, asking questions that require a multiple word answer)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Did we ever ask if it was ONLY bugbears in the keep helping the bugbears? We know there are non-bugbear hostages, but...well, that priestess wasn't a bugbear)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes she was)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (I'm sorry bob. I don't usually speak this way. Doing the best I can here)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Someone else want a turn? )
[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.
[Scruffy (Master)] (then get help, SPring TMO have not had anything yet)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Ask away
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Oops. Makes more sense if she wass, guess it was her icon?)
[Scruffy (Master)] (team effort is best)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] AFK
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Still packing/eat, just tossing in ideas when I can)
[Scruffy (Master)] (only one person can ask questions, but need to get input)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Bob - - priestess was bugbear that killed homer? - just checking)
[MarioCS] i think we are doing well, got a LOT of info
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Master] careful on that Mario
[Master] on what you THINK you got v what he said
[MarioCS] if Hug us done, ill post these to the site
[Master] for example in the last 5 questions he only answered one
[Master] and that was if the mirror saw Teb
[MarioCS] verify this?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Where are the hostages questions need to be asked
[MarioCS] If I brought a magic item in front of this mirror. Would it demand I give the magic item to the mirror? No Yes\\ Any Magic Item? Yes\\ If I brought TEB in front of the mirror would it be interested in him? Yes\\ Did the first magic thing come into contact with the mirror be the ring? Shrugs\\ If I somehow got the ring and brought it too the mirror. What would happen? Or if you brought the ring? (again, asking questions that require a multiple word answer)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I got nothing. Someone esle take a turn. I'm getting frustrated. Not your fault, just don't know how to handle this
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] AFK
[Master] right the only thing in that string is bring Teb in front
[MarioCS] gotcha, thanks
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Is the mirror guarded?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (in throne room)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (And when did it talk to Scruffy?)
[MarioCS] maybe ask about the hostages, where? how many? who guards? etc
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (As in, were the bugbears asleep when it talked to him?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (talked to scruffy the time he put bugbears to sleep)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Throne room? Lovely....)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (when he took the ring)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Haha thanks. As I said, tried to keep up. Obvious missed things :) )
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no worries - help me keep it straight)
[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (And go for it, Mario. Idea of hostages would be good. Wonder how they "play" with the king?)
Branwyn (Lisa) mentions "Maybe the mirror simply identifies magic items"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Scruffy picked up a magic ring in front of the mirror and it said magic
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You pick up a goblet it says nothing
[MarioCS] Posted
[MarioCS] if someone would copy/paste the Qs and As, ill have a go
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] What use is that? Does the king iuse it to sort his hoard?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It saves spells
[MarioCS] I copy/paste the Qs, type the As in Notepad
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I wouldn't mind having it
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And it helps to appraise items
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Know if enemies are carrying magic items
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hmmm ... very nice mirror
[Kel (MarioCS)] It soulnds very useful. Lets add it to our goals, as a reward for having to work dso hard for what was rightly ours to begin with
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Wonder if we can put it in that magic storage room...
[Kel (MarioCS)] i'm positive Elidor's bow is there. Scruffy mentioned a bow in the treasure room, right Scruffy?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Specifically an elven bow...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it would be yammering away the whole time in the scroll :D )
[Kel (MarioCS)] lol
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but yes a very good idea!)
[Kel (MarioCS)] um, Scruffy, have you eaten?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sneaking though the forest and keeps yelling Magic! every few minutes
[Kel (MarioCS)] (hate to ask) Jilly, has Scruffy eaten to day?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we all had breakfast last week)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Haha but once the scroll closes, at least we couldn't hear it!)
[Jilly (Master)] Of course!
[Kel (MarioCS)] Scruffy, your friends are hostages in the castle?
[Jilly (Master)] You are a monster
[Jilly (Master)] how could you not let him eat
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes - scroll is key)
[Kel (MarioCS)] JillY! He is RIGHT THERE!
[Jilly (Master)] good
[Jilly (Master)] so he ate
[Branwyn (Lisa)] brb
[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.
[Kel (MarioCS)] Have some respect for his feelings. No one likes to be called ou tlike that
Jilly (Master) pauses
[Jilly (Master)] OH
[Jilly (Master)] you are a monster not Scruffy
[Jilly (Master)] Scruffy is a good person
[Jilly (Master)] HE would not stop you from eating
Kel (MarioCS) sly grin
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Are goblins people...?
[Jilly (Master)] of course he is a person
[Kel (MarioCS)] Scruffy, your friends are hostages in the castle?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Just checking.
[Jilly (Master)] who else would he be if he is not a person?
[Jilly (Master)] you are silly
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] Er, a goblin?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] Do you want help recuing them?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (He did say the goblin hostages were important to him)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] If we helped you, could you help us, too?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] ok, where are the hostages? above ground or below?
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] do you go down stairs to got to them?
[Scruffy (Master)] no

[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] are there any stairs in the castle?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] are the hostages in cages?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] are they held by chains?

[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] are there windows into the room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] are there guards outside the room?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] are they bugbear guards?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Scruffy (Master)] more
[Kel (MarioCS)] is there anyone else helping to guard?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Scruffy (Master)] wolves
[Kel (MarioCS)] monsters help to guard?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] ok, how many? three?
[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.
Scruffy (Master) shrugs
[Kel (MarioCS)] wolves? are there this many? (three fingers)
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Wolves guarding the hostages??)
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] more
[Kel (MarioCS)] (apparently on the gorund floor
[Kel (MarioCS)] do you like the wolves?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] are they your rides?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] would you like to ride them?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] ya, that would be cool!
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] ((Haha oh dear)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] how many guards are there by the door to the room
[Kel (MarioCS)] ?
[Scruffy (Master)] some
[Kel (MarioCS)] This many (five ifngers)
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Kel (MarioCS)] is the door at the end of the hall?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] you can approach the door from both ways?
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] is the door part of a bigger room?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] do the guars sleep close to the door?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] is the bigger room where the bugbears eat?
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] do they cok the food there?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] can we get to the bigger room from this tunnel?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] when you bring wine, do all the bugbears drink?
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (He said he tried to free the hostages before, right? Why'd he fail?)
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] do the sleeping ones come for wine too?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
Scruffy (Master) looks at you like you are crazy
[Kel (MarioCS)] when you tried to save your friends, did the bugbears fight you off?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sleepwalking bugbears)
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] (couldnt word that any other way...)
[Kel (MarioCS)] did you have the key?
[Kel (MarioCS)] for the door?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] were the bugbears sleeping when you tried to save them?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] but you couldnt open the door?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] but no bubears stopped you from getting to the door?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] (ok, so drunk/drugged seemed to work)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I'm getting confused on the negatives)
[Kel (MarioCS)] did any bugbears stop you from getting to the door?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no bugbears stopping you should be yes if no bugbears stopped him)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (A locked door stopped him, not a bugbear?)
[Kel (MarioCS)] aha, good call
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Ah)
[Kel (MarioCS)] they did not sleep?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] (lol, bob, oh bob)
[Kel (MarioCS)] The bugbears that stopped you, did they drink?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] how many goblins tried to rescue them? This Many(five fingers)?
[Scruffy (Master)] more
[Kel (MarioCS)] and the wolves stopped you?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] just the bugbears?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] did thebugbears stop you?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (The wolves AND the bugbears?)
[Kel (MarioCS)] and who else?
[Scruffy (Master)] door
[Kel (MarioCS)] are the wolves new to guard the room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] (k, so i gather they drugged a lot, but the guards did not drink, and the door was locked, they didnt have a key)
[Kel (MarioCS)] Does the King sit in the bigger room all the time?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Kel (MarioCS)] is the bigger room where the mirror is?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Kel (MarioCS)] ( so the bigger room is the throne room, and the hostages are there, o nthe ground floor)
[Kel (MarioCS)] (may not have to cleave through them all then)
[Scruffy (Master)] (why are the hostages there?)
[Kel (MarioCS)] Scruffy, my good man, whay ar ethe hostages now hostages? tdid they fight agaist the king?
[Scruffy (Master)] (why are the hostages in the throne room? where did you get that from?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (he asked if you had to take stairs to get to hostages - that sounded like ground floor)
[Scruffy (Master)] no yes no
[Scruffy (Master)] (so you are saying there is only one room on the ground floor? ok)
Spring has left the game on Fri Apr 07 21:55:46 EDT 2017
[Kel (MarioCS)] no, i asked if the bigger room held the mirror, bigger room menaing the room that had the door to the hostages
[Kel (MarioCS)] and he said yes
[Master] he said the mirror is in the throne room
[Master] never said where the room with the hostages is other than it is on the ground floor
[Master] no one even asked if the throne room is on the ground floor
[Kel (MarioCS)] bigger room means the room wthat leads to the hostage room
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes - i didn't think we established where the throne room was)
[Master] no one asked where the door to the hostages is
[Master] only that it is not at the end of a hallway
[Kel (MarioCS)] i asked if it can be a[[roached from both sides, he said yes no
[Kel (MarioCS)] i asked if it was part of a bigger oom, he said yes
[Master] I just want you to understand you are making assumptions, not asking questions to verify they are right
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (meaning he didn't understand)
[Kel (MarioCS)] i asked if the mirror was in the bigger room he said yes
[Master] yes to part of a bigger room
[Master] that does not mean the throne room is the only bigger room than where the hostages are
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but I believe he understands throne room)
[Kel (MarioCS)] i did realize i had to identify the " bigger room' every time i typed ' bigger room"
[Kel (MarioCS)] didnt*
[Kel (MarioCS)] so all these questions are for naught
[Master] no
[Master] you are just presuming you understand and then do not follow up
[Master] like you did with teh mirror
[Master] like you did with the wolves
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (hey! I understand the mirror)
[Kel (MarioCS)] again, bigger room used as we were, should mean the same room when we mention bigger rrom again
[Master] you all need to work together and not try to think of every qeustion on your own without help
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I do not understand the wolves in the slightest)
[Master] and giving you a big hint here
[Master] you know he can draw..... but never asked him to DRAW THE ROOMS OUT FOR YOU
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (remember being the Inquisitor is not a job - it is a calling)
[Master] LOL
[Master] very good one Lisa
[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we had an NPC who said that to us over dinner once)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not a guy you really want to question you)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so besides the frustration - want to give it another try?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (goblin sketch artist?)
[Kel (MarioCS)] no thank you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we think there are 4 lervels)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (levels even)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] no thank you
[Indigo (Lisa)] (ok - silly halfling up to bat?)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] ( I wont complain. :) )
[Indigo (Lisa)] (unless Carissa wants the Inquisitor job back?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (ok - my turn to convolute things! toss stuff out for me)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Scruffy, want to talk to me too?
[Scruffy (Master)] ok
Indigo (Lisa) smiles
[Shi'Nynze (Carissa)] (Your turn. Good luck, Lisa. Unfortunately, this time I really do need to go and sleep. So goodnight all! See you next week!)
Indigo (Lisa) takes Hugh's parhment and turns it over
[Indigo (Lisa)] (safe travels! Have a great trip)
Carissa has left the game on Fri Apr 07 22:06:44 EDT 2017
[Indigo (Lisa)] draws the road through the gate and then the building with the circle in the front and the long back side to other battlement at the other side of the gate
[Indigo (Lisa)] This is the castle?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Master] hostages.png moved 3'03".
Indigo (Lisa) points at circluar building we had seen with the red roof
[Indigo (Lisa)] What's there?
[Scruffy (Master)] stairs
[Indigo (Lisa)] One level up?
[Scruffy (Master)] stairs
Indigo (Lisa) holds up 1 finger
[Indigo (Lisa)] Goes up?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Goes down?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
Indigo (Lisa) nods
Indigo (Lisa) can you draw what is up stairs?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Will you draw what is upstairs?
[Scruffy (Master)] (thinking how to answer that)
Indigo (Lisa) shales his head
Scruffy (Master) draws a circle with stairs inside
[Scruffy (Master)] around a center
[Indigo (Lisa)] Great!
[Indigo (Lisa)] Stairs go to hallway?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Stairs go to room?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Stairs go up to Treasure Room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Hostage Room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Throne Room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Battlements?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Good
[Indigo (Lisa)] So we don't want to take those stairs probably
Indigo (Lisa) points at next area of keep in drawing going clockwise from circular building
[Master] hostages.png moved 2'10".
[Master] hostages.png moved 3'07".
[Scruffy (Master)] draws that
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] BRB Bathrrom
[Indigo (Lisa)] Is there a door to get in here?
[Scruffy (Master)] points to outside door
[Scruffy (Master)] then to inside doors
[Indigo (Lisa)] (draws the battlement?)
[Scruffy (Master)] points to another door
[Indigo (Lisa)] (outside door is gate or door to inside keep?)
[Master] door from courtyard to throne room
[Indigo (Lisa)] So throne room is behind this door?
Indigo (Lisa) points at that building again
[Master] points to large room with wooden floor
[Indigo (Lisa)] Throne room needs stairs?
[Master] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Room next to throne room?
[Master] hostages
[Master] small
[Indigo (Lisa)] he keeps the hostages in a small room off the throne room on the ground floor
[Indigo (Lisa)] Okay
[Indigo (Lisa)] Other room next to throne room?
[Scruffy (Master)] guards
[Indigo (Lisa)] A guard room next to throne room?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Are there stairs in the throne room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Have you ever been in the guard room?
[Scruffy (Master)] (you see the map that he drew there in the middle of yoru group?)
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] (oh now I do :)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (michael and mario - click on the hostages icon)
[Scruffy (Master)] (tmo too)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (he is so quiet - lurking in the shadows)
[TMO] (I saw it. he's a talented artist)
[Scruffy (Master)] LOL
[Indigo (Lisa)] (LOL)
TMO lurks
Indigo (Lisa) thinks to himself "Scruffy hasn't been past the guard room
[Indigo (Lisa)] There are wolves here?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Indigo (Lisa) points at guard room
[Indigo (Lisa)] Here?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Indigo (Lisa) holds up 5 fingers "This many?"
[Indigo (Lisa)] (sorry I fogot number he said)
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] back
Indigo (Lisa) holds up 3 "This many?"
[Indigo (Lisa)] I forgot
[Scruffy (Master)] more
Indigo (Lisa) holds up 4 "This many?"
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] (was worried it was more than 5)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Did you put wolves to sleep?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Were wolves in cages?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] (where not werewolves)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Wolves chained up?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] They attacked you?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] They saw you fighting with bugbears?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I am confused)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] )as am I )
[Master] He never said he was fighting with the bugbears
[Master] he said they have hostages
[Indigo (Lisa)] (he said he tried to free the hostages but bugbears stopped them
[Master] he said he was stopped by the bugbears and the doors
[Master] that does not mean he was fighting with bugbears
[Indigo (Lisa)] (assumptions make an ass of u and me scenario :)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (so I know where I am here in this picture)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (alright. think i got a handle on it. Thanks Lisa. This is getting to me haha)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (next)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (next question?)
[Master] that is the problem you each try to handle it all think of the question and then ask it rather than getting help on what to ask, how to word it, what he said so you all get the same meaning
[Indigo (Lisa)] So attached to the throne room is a guard room with nondrinking bugbears and 4 wolves guarding a small hostage room
[Master] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] got it
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I am well aware that I have problems ;) )
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Your not wrong bob, but it's a lot harder when your trying to cmmunicate via typing. Vocal conversations are much easier to understnad certain things.)
Indigo (Lisa) points to room north of the guard room
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Doing better then the rest of us Lisa. :) )
[Master] it took you over 7 hours of questioning and no one ever thought to ask him to just draw out the rooms, because you each tried to solve it alone
[Indigo (Lisa)] What is that room?
[Master] food
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we need tmo and michael for that - I don't think drawing - yes teamwork is good!)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Okay
Indigo (Lisa) points to room east of guard room
[Master] Mario Michael Lisa and Carissa all did good working together, Spring was quiet tonght and TMO has been away and quiet

[Indigo (Lisa)] Guard bedroom?
[Master] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] (does that take us to the east battlements on the keep map? the hostage map cuts off)
[TMO] (gotta go put kids to bed)
[TMO] I am away from the keyboard.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (ahh - ask and you shall receive)
[Master] those are inside of the battlements not the top of them
Indigo (Lisa) points past bedroom
[Indigo (Lisa)] What's that room?
[Master] stairs
Indigo (Lisa) points up "Stair go up?"

[Indigo (Lisa)] Let's take a break.
Indigo (Lisa) gets wine for everyone and then starts again
Indigo (Lisa) hands Scruffy a cup
Scruffy (Master) smiles and sips
[Indigo (Lisa)] What is upstairs here?
Scruffy (Master) shrugs
Indigo (Lisa) points over east stairway

[Scruffy (Master)] no
Scruffy (Master) looks at Indigo like he is crazy
[Indigo (Lisa)] King might not be as smart as you
Indigo (Lisa) grins
[Scruffy (Master)] many
Indigo (Lisa) holds up 10 fingers "10 children?"
[Indigo (Lisa)] More than 10 children?
[Scruffy (Master)] more
[Indigo (Lisa)] Correction?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Do they stay upstairs?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Did Scruffy put them to sleep?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Upstairs has king bedroom
[Indigo (Lisa)] Upstairs has Treasure Room
[Scruffy (Master)] yes

Indigo (Lisa) makes four rooms

[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Branwyn (Lisa) pokes her head up "A mage?"
[Indigo (Lisa)] A wizard in the room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no

[Indigo (Lisa)] Who are people in magic room?
[Scruffy (Master)] bugbears

[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Do the bugbears use the magic things?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Do they cast spells?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Indigo (Lisa) holds up 2 fingers "Two bugbears in magic room?"
[Scruffy (Master)] maybe
[Indigo (Lisa)] Have you seen the magic bugbears Scruffy?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Did you put them to sleep?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ask Billy if there are more than 2 magic bugbears?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Scruffy (Master)] (Michael? Mario?)
[Indigo (Lisa)] how many magic bugbears are there?
Scruffy (Master) shrugs
[Indigo (Lisa)] (yes please)
Indigo (Lisa) holds up 3 fingers "This many magic bugbears?"
Scruffy (Master) shrugs
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ask Billy please
[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.
[Scruffy (Master)] (back and forth)
Scruffy (Master) thinking
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Lisa I totally admire you for doing this, and it will probably be my death, but I just cant stay focused on this. Do you want me to try and expound on the questions? I'm not trying to be useless, this is just hard for me.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (it is hard - really trying to just keep it to number charades and y/n)
[Scruffy (Master)] Some
[Indigo (Lisa)] (but if you have questions, toss them out)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (seems to me they don't know what a wizard/mage is)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (hence the magic bugbears in their room of magic things)
Indigo (Lisa) points to fourth room on the floor
[Scruffy (Master)] (bugbears and goblins do not have mages, they only have priests)
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ask Billy what that room is
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Indigo would not know that?)
[Scruffy (Master)] (nope, a ranger would)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (oh so 4th room is the zombie room then)
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) (to Lisa only)] the problem is iI just lose focus after so much time talking something to death. Your awesome for doing it, I just cant. And, I know if I just say lets just go do something and then it goes wrong, then bob will fling it back at me that we should have discussed it properly haha. It'a a pretty vicious Catch-22, I am trying though :)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (funny he said magic room then instead of holy room)
[Scruffy (Master)] Points to circle
[Scruffy (Master)] stairs
[Scruffy (Master)] family
[Scruffy (Master)] guards
[Scruffy (Master)] King
[Scruffy (Master)] Those are the rooms on the map
[Indigo (Lisa)] then where are the magic and treasure rooms?
Scruffy (Master) points up
Scruffy (Master) points at the King's room
[Indigo (Lisa)] Stairs go up again here?
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
Indigo (Lisa) points up from that level
Indigo (Lisa) nods
[Indigo (Lisa)] So treasure room above king's room
[Indigo (Lisa)] Magic room above king
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Scruffy (Master)] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] magic room on same level as treasure room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] Magic room on same level as king room?
[Scruffy (Master)] no
[Indigo (Lisa)] (so how did we get to the magic room from 4 rooms on king level?
[Scruffy (Master)] you asked if magic room was up
[Scruffy (Master)] you did not ask if it was on the king level
[Master] How many levels does everyone think this keep has?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Magic room on ground floor?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we thought 4)
[Master] there is the first floor, the courtyard, the throne room, hostages, guards
[Master] 2nd floor kings room, guards, women, treasure
[Master] so far you know higher is the magic bugbear room and magic room
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] So there are TWO FLOORS? OOC
[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] IS this established"?
[Master] and you can see on the overall map that the the second and third and fourth levels all have outside areas also
[Master] and there is an open area at the top of the tower for a 5th level
Lisa is receiving the map Base Map...
Lisa has received the map Base Map.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ground floor: Throme room. Hostage Room, Guard Room, Kitchen
[Master] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] First Floor Up: King's Room, Family Room, Treasure Room, Guard Room
[Master] yes
[Indigo (Lisa)] Second Floor Up: Magic Room which has the magic bugbears in it
[Master] no
[Master] room with magic bugbears
