Lisa has received the map ground level.
[Lisa] Must be contagious given that I broke mine
[Master] that stinks
[Lisa] no kidding especially since no one can treat it til Monday and I have to hope that until then I can keep from doing any more damage that would require surgery or something
[Lisa] so I have taken two vicodin and have my foot on the desk on ice
[Lisa] that is really bad about Marco
[Master] I have not heard from John or Guy
[Lisa] ever hear from Dee?
[Master] no
[Lisa] too bad. hope she is doing okay
[Master] we will have a new visitor next week, a friend from Montreal is coming down
[Lisa] we will try to be on our best behaviour then
[Lisa] can I use u's with canadians?
[Master] from Montreal I think yes
[Lisa] or we can just parlons francais
[Master] I do not know what to do about TMO, Illero is there stuck between the two Scrags and will likely not be in for a bit like normal
[Lisa] last week we was almost on time
[Lisa] he didn't say he would be late
[Lisa] Indigo was planning on running over there since our other scrags are in the water nearly dead so they will have a fresh target
[Master] gettinga drink
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

JohnAA has received the map ground level.
[Lisa] Hi John :)
[JohnAA] hello, how are you
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] hello
[Lisa] could be better and you?
[JohnAA] alway could be better
[Lisa] but are your feet in tact?
[JohnAA] got the weekend off from wife, kids and inlaws then got stuck driving to Seabring tomorrow 5 hr round trip
[JohnAA] feet fine
[Lisa] then you are better than marco and I
[Lisa] you don't like road trips?
[Lisa] guess it depends on the trip purpose
[JohnAA] yes, new place, kind of exciting but pick up and delivery so not too much fun, especialy considering predicted weather
[Lisa] hurricane?
[JohnAA] I heard Hail
[Lisa] too early for those though
[Master] Branwyn XP award: 1000. Next level in 109172.
[Lisa] not fun - be careful out there
[JohnAA] only cause you said so Master Brawyn
[Lisa] lol
[Lisa] fireball is targeted isn't it? no collateral damage when casting?
[JohnAA] so to answer your other question, I do not think it is worth it to split up the party
[JohnAA] HA!
[JohnAA] you need to hear the story
[JohnAA] who are you tareting
[Master] Firebal is an Area of Effect spell, you target where you want the center of the effect to be
[Lisa] would be a scrag next to illero
[JohnAA] 30' ball for that spell
[JohnAA] and if your inside, that can mean a long way
[Lisa] do you think we can do both the citadel and travel 100 miles and fight vampires and get back to the coronation in time?
[Master] 30 foot sphere that needs to be filled is what John is trying to say, so if you are in a 10 foot wide 10 foot high corridoor it goes down that coridoor a long long tim
[Lisa] how many days did we have Bob?
[JohnAA] i'm not saying I have, and I'm not saying I haven't but you can kill henchman with that spell
[Master] and PCs too
[Master] and you have 30 somethign days still to go
[Master] roughly
[Lisa] so casting it on the scrag would make Illero burnt toast so to speak
[Master] on the scrag yes
[JohnAA] start the building on file, maybe the dock
[Lisa] and could possibly burn down the inn?
[Master] just far enough out so the edge hits him
[Lisa] they would never forget us
[Master] but yes there is lots of potential for expansion
[JohnAA] it is a clasic spell
[Master] and hope there is not a barrel of rum nearby
[Master] etc
[Lisa] have only cast it once and had no idea it did so much damage
[Master] for splitting up the party it might be a good idea to send someone along with Toybin
[JohnAA] Lightnig bolt does same damage to target but is somewhat more flexable
[Lisa] send 1 person?
[JohnAA] Qui Gon has a spell that can tell us how he is doing, let me check
[Lisa] how who is doing?
[Master] and remember you are going into a human place, Indigo is fairly well known
[Master] but Gnomes are not part of life there,
[Master] Elves are strange things
[Master] and dwarves are stuff out fo legend
[Lisa] so we use the dwarf as a distraction while we look around
[JohnAA] we would know if he is in danger, but I bet he will be in constant danger
[Master] you need to explain better john
[Lisa] he will also be in the mist if you are talking Toybin in the swamps
[Lisa] the closer he gets to the vamps the mistier it will be
[JohnAA] yea, rules will change
[Master] and splitting up the party inside the citidel might be a good idea too
[JohnAA] I was going to post how much fun I had roleplaying him last week, then forgot about him when combat came
[Master] a big group is harder to sneak around
[Lisa] I'm not sure how we are going to handle this at all
[Lisa] not like no one will know we are there and we can't just say hand her over
[Lisa] if this guy has his own citadel it will come with a lot of guards
[Lisa] I really think the queen should just pick someone else
[Master] did you two read the updates I put on the Vilmar Estates page?
[Master] and can you see the map here on teh campaign tree?
[JohnAA] no, but I am just the mussle right now
[Lisa] yes - the place is huge
[Lisa] so we are going to split the party somehow - just perhaps in the citadel itself
[Lisa] who do you think we should send with Toybin?
[Lisa] can't be either Sarengar or Illero
[JohnAA] I guess he is a fighter, maybe a priest?
[Lisa] has to be someone with multiple characters
[JohnAA] or a mage
[JohnAA] i was going to wait till after the fight but Miranda wants to make it up to the town people she could not save
[Lisa] Branwyn was going to have a chat with Miranda as well
[JohnAA] wink
[Master] Miranda is an example of the apprentices that Branwyn will be getting
[JohnAA] some what
[Lisa] Branwyn doesn't want any apprentices
[Lisa] she is not a role model
[JohnAA] you are weither you want to beor not
[Lisa] they need someone more mage like
[JohnAA] like Gandolf?
[Master] charles barkely
[Lisa] lol
[Lisa] Bellamin will do
[JohnAA] Potter?
[Lisa] send them all to rivers bend

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We tried. I wish there were more of the people here we could have.

[Miranda (JohnAA)] did they have families?
[Miranda (JohnAA)] (do they)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So this was not an uncommon occurence?
[Man #6 (Master)] everyone has a family, unless you come from a stone like a dwarf I suppose
[Ilero (TMO)] Make raft of junk wood, and burn it?
[Man #6 (Master)] looks around do dwarves think of rocks as family?
[Miranda (JohnAA)] I would like to pay my respects
[Indigo (Lisa)] That's a good idea! Wanna help?
[Man #6 (Master)] never heard of a dwarf family

[Toybin of Castling (Master)] He cast soem spell and disapeared from the room
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I was watchign to be sure he did not break his word and attack you down there
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but he seems to have just disapeared
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Most likely not for long. We shall see him again soon I am afraid
[Ilero (TMO)] back
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But enough of him. I suppose we have more important things to discuss.
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] you did not tell anyone you were coming here to meet me?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I did not
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am worried that they knew the Princess was here,
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ummmm.... I may have said something
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] it might be a coincidence
Toybin of Castling (Master) looks at Indigo
[Indigo (Lisa)] Well I saw Bewick one night while I was keeping watch and thought she might be able to help
[Indigo (Lisa)] She is my friend and would never betray you
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I will trust you on that
[Indigo (Lisa)] But I thought it was you Princess that was missing
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] I am considering doing something outrageous to attract attention
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] and get peopel to follow me
[Ilero (TMO)] Could have been a divinations magic, yes?
[Hoffman (JohnAA)] you have my attention
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] here yes,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] sometiems I wonder if the Mist is that bad afterall, I do not know how they do it in Terraguard or other places
[Hoffman (JohnAA)] I would follow you if only I had not made prior commientments
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] how do you protect someone when they can use spells to find you
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] or surprise you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You must do your best. That is all you can do
[Hoffman (JohnAA)] the cost of fame I fear
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I intend to find Mina and bring her to the Royal Estates on time
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] nothing less will do
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Sir Toybin I worry about you going into the swamps alone. At least one of us should go with you.
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am not going to go into the swamps if I can help it
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I will cross over into the Vilmar Estates here, then head south
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And you can reach the Count without entering the swamps?
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the ghostwood domain? yes I can go east of the Citidel then south
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the spear channel will take me south
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] then I will be near the Cowles Estates
[Hoffman (JohnAA)] whould you want me to watch the princess while you travel?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] How long do you think it will take?
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] 3 days to get north of the Cowles Estates
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the Spear Channel is half a days travel east of the Citidal
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the Citidel is about 16 miles east of here
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I must have misunderstood you earlier then. I thought we would have to go through swamps to reach Castle Drake
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] thath is the most direct route yes
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but with more time to travel there are other ways
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And when you arrive you shall storm the castle filled with vampires and rescue your princess?
[QuiFon Ruminel (JohnAA)] maybe we can catch up with you
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Drakes Road meets up with the Kings Road on the edge of the swamps,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I was intending to get close to the Ghostwood Domain, near the castle and see if I can find anything
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] wait for word from the outside
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] if need be then yes storm the castle and rescue her
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] on my own if that is what needs to be
[Ilero (TMO)] Is there landmark we can find you by, to meet at?
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs, "And would you allow this witch to accompany you on your mission?"
Toybin of Castling (Master) blushes a bit
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Lady Branwyn You have proven yoru self in battle many times over,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and you have been a suporter of the Princess and the Queen Presumptive
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I have to trust you will be there to help me
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but I also do not believe she is in Drake's castle
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I believe that she is somewhere in teh Citidel,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but I am too well known there to be of any use in searching for her
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Then why did Red Cloak who was unfortunately right about all the other things be wrong about this?
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] What did he tell you Toybin that makes you doubt him?
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] I thought you said the priest said he did not lie
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He would tell you truth of her capture but then lead you astray?
[Ilero (TMO)] Not lying does not mean truth saying
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I tinink that she is in Vilmar, becuase the Count has two sons who would be her consort
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] one of them must have kidnapped her
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I think that Red Cloak thinks that one of them is working in league with Drake
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and so would take her there,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I think that they would take her home to father
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and keep her there
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Drake is much closer to the Royal Estates
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] only 40 miles
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] where it is over 100 miles from the Citidel
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Citidal
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] growls
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I think that there is enough merit to guarding the pass into the Ghostwood Domain
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] ther eis only the one road
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and if someone enters there through the Kings Road out of the swamps
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] someone on Drakes Road will see them
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] there might be help from the Bolpel Estates
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] NO
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Why not?
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] that man is a pig
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] I will not allow him to come any closer to anyone near the throne
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Many men are pigs but if they san be helpful swine....
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] he will be helpful if you want to constantly fend off his hands,
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] like a leech he is
[Hoffman (JohnAA)] ::point to self::
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] cannot think or do antyhing else
Toybin of Castling (Master) laughs
[Branwyn (Lisa)] lovely. Can hardly wait to meet that one
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] laughing
[Ilero (TMO)] Then send only males to work with him. Is he trustable?
Anastacia Eustace (Master) throws a mug at Toybin,
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] YOU
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] you did that on purpose!
[Anastacia Eustace (Master)] you have no intention of goign anywhere near the swamp hold do you?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Toybin has gained a sense of humor. Must be a side effect of his being so in love
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] so in the morning
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I will take the Princess home
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] then I will travel East and then south to guard the pass on Drakes Road
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Lady Branwyn, you and Sir Indigo will tear apart the Citadel until you find Mina
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and then we will meet at the Royal Estates
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I still think one of us should go with you. We will say goodbye to you in the morning and hopefully you will allow one of us to go. We must discuss it among ourselves tonight as to who that would be
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I will accept the assistance if you can spare it
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And if we do not find Mina at the Citadel then we will have to pay Count Drake a visit
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I have stayed at the Empty Hand inn when I have visited the Citadel
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] it is a decent place,
[Miranda (JohnAA)] ::looks at her master::
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the Shieldwall Inn is small but they have an illegal gambling den
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We shall wish to cause the least amount of attention I should think but thank you for the information
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] taking Sir Indigo into the Citadel is going to attrack attention, as will you yourself I think
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] they have no love of mages there
[Branwyn (Lisa)] There is not much I can do about that.
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] if you had a priestess it would help
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the Temple there has been there for a long time
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs "Our priestess is a halfling"
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Brother Stephanie is is charge there now
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] wrinkles his nose
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I trust you know what you are doing
[Miranda (JohnAA)] ::looks down::
Branwyn (Lisa) shoots a warning look at Miranda not to get any ideas
[QuiFon Ruminel (JohnAA)] I too am a preist, but not the one you are looking for
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And if we don't we will make something up
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles at Toybin
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I just need to be sure she is safe
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am certain that one of the Count's two sons has her
[Hoffman (JohnAA)] Let me know if I can help
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Where will you be in Ghostwood do you know? In case we need to find you
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I will be on the road if at all possible
[Branwyn (Lisa)] All day and all night. Oh poor Toybin
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] there is only one Inn in the entire domain
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the Inn fo the Crimson Tears
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles, "how fitting if not exactly welcoming"
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] it is well outside of the village
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] so if I cannot stay on the road without attracting attention I will be there
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good to know
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.GhostwoodDomain
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.VilmarEstates
Branwyn (Lisa) looks around at the group
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I did arrange for you to have the room next door
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] tonight
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Unless there are other urgent matters to discuss I would like to find our room and get some dinner
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Wonderful
[Master] Branwyn moved 19'05".
[Master] Ilero moved 24'01".
[Master] Indigo moved 31'03".
[Master] Hoffman moved 32'01".
[Master] QuiFon Ruminel moved 37'04".
[Miranda (JohnAA)] (timidly) I was thinking of staying longer
[Master] Miranda moved 43'11".
[Master] Brother Fotopoulos moved 34'00".
[Master] Vilmar Citidel moved 30'03".
[Master] as you can see this is a larger common room, at least there are three beds in it for you
[Miranda (JohnAA)] (he moves Citidels, see the wonder)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol - the map)
[Miranda (JohnAA)] (where did I leave that castle?)
[Ilero (TMO)] Your other pants?
[Master] so you are all in the room together
[Master] eating, talkign etc
[Master] this is where to make plans and decide a few things
[Master] make rolls if need be, etc
Branwyn (Lisa) walks over to Miranda and puts an arm around her shoulders "What exactly were you thinking out there before?"
[Miranda (JohnAA)] Master Branwyn
[Miranda (JohnAA)] I
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I thought you had chosen your destiny
[Miranda (JohnAA)] I must have been listing to Hoffman and Qui Fon.
[Miranda (JohnAA)] too much
[Miranda (JohnAA)] I seemed to be the only one to be able to save them
[Miranda (JohnAA)] and only one way I knew how
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
[Miranda (JohnAA)] like I was ment to save them
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But it did not work out so well did it?
[Miranda (JohnAA)] ... no
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will tell you that I was shocked when you said you wished mage training
[Miranda (JohnAA)] but...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I do believe that you have too good a heart for tha
[Miranda (JohnAA)] You have a good heart
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Mages tend to be quite selfish
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Eh... I don't know about that.
[Miranda (JohnAA)] Mages tend to be powerfull and sure of themselves
[Miranda (JohnAA)] I want to be like that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will protect this group to my dying breath but that is because I love you all and that is selfish
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I want you all near me for a long time
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I was sorry about those men at the dock but we had to protect our own first
[Ilero (TMO)] Magickers are more interested in themselves, improving and learning.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And you must not revert to your priestess spells if you want to become a mage
[Miranda (JohnAA)] ::looks down:: yes master
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If of course that is what you still want
[Miranda (JohnAA)] shall I pay the familes a visit to see if they need help
[Miranda (JohnAA)] oh I do , I do
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are sure of this?
[Miranda (JohnAA)] ::thinks hard::
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is not bad if you wish to be a priestess only you know
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You do that very well
[Miranda (JohnAA)] I want to be a mage so I can command the force I choose, follow the path I choose
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Then seize it Miranda
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do not veer from the path you have chosen again
[Miranda (JohnAA)] but till then I will follow your path, until you say I am ready
[Miranda (JohnAA)] (hee hee)
Branwyn (Lisa) sighs "Oh I wish you had a better teacher than I"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] After dinner, go visit the families but know we must leave early in the morning
[Miranda (JohnAA)] I do thushly
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (too much wine perhaps?)
[JohnAA] it has been fun, but I need to start winding down
[JohnAA] Not for me
[JohnAA] but then I had a wine coolor too so who knows
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (okay - thopughts on having someone go with Toybin?)
[Master] any input on toybin
[Ilero (TMO)] (Ilero could be useful in either place)
[JohnAA] Qui Fon would actual be my fist thought, but he is weak
[JohnAA] balanced, but weak
[Ilero (TMO)] (so long as you don't need him to attack anything. ;) )
[Master] what spells were you thinking of?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I was thinking we would only be glancing at Toybin from time to time and so whoever goes would not be getting a lot of play time compared to the citadel)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (am I wrong Bob?)
[JohnAA] if Qui Fon does not go with Tobin, he would like to cast blesed watchfullness
[Master] correct on the toybin thing
[JohnAA] sorry Sacred Guarden
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so I was thinking either one of mine or John's)
[JohnAA] By use of this spell, a priest becomes instantly aware when the recipient of the spell is in danger, regardless of distance between the priestand the recipient. The recipient may be on a different plane of existence than the priest.
[Master] you should explain that John, how it works
[Master] thank you
[JohnAA] if he was thrid level
[JohnAA] When this spell is cast by a priest of at least 3rd level, he receives a mental image of the endangered person's situation. At no time, however, does the priest know the person's location through the use of this spell.
[JohnAA] but we need him to kiss a rose petal
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and he is third level?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (how hard could that be?)
[JohnAA] that can't be right
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (wasn't trying to not count Illero - I just didn't want to banish your character into a cameo role for a month or whatever)
[Ilero (TMO)] (I understand completely. :) )
[JohnAA] actualy he is, priests have it fairly easy at low levels
[Master] in a meta gaming view you can rest assured that you will all get a chance to visit the Ghostwood Domain before this is over
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I am sure of that)
[JohnAA] so we would not be able to find him but we would have some idea what is going on
[Ilero (TMO)] (Yay?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol
[Master] and splitting up the party in the citadel is likely a good thing
[Master] that will be the next challenge,
[JohnAA] i guess you do not want Miranda to go with Tobin
[JohnAA] and for sure not Brother
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so do we send someone with Toybin or let him hide in a bush by himself?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I'm not opposed to either of them going - we have Koorin and QuiFon and Foto as healers - we are good)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (amazingly enough)
[JohnAA] I am not sure from a meta game point of view the point is, but I could certainly see Miranda going with him, if her master approved
[Master] TMO do you think that Toybin is a friend of the party or ?
[JohnAA] who said Qui Fon could heal?
[Ilero (TMO)] it sounds like it to me. Am I missing something?
[Master] no
[Master] just in that Guy wants to kill him
[JohnAA] that is a pont BOB, Orison can heal even if you do not have healing right
[Master] no to john
[Master] you can only Orison things from teh spheres you can cast
[JohnAA] so no Qui Fon does not heal
[JohnAA] does that make him useless to Tobin
[JohnAA] more so then Miranda
[Master] not at all
[Master] earlier in the evening I mentioned Gnomes, Dwarves etc. in the Citadel
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh - I thought Quifon did our last healing bit - sorry)
[Master] I think that is one key thing to consider
[Master] then how to balance out into two or three groups to explore the Citadel
[Master] meet adn talk with people etc
[Master] think along the lines of mysteries, investigative stuff
[Master] the Finder
[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol
[TMO] would our group be welcome to just drop in at the citadel, or do we have to sneak in?
[Master] you will need a reason to go in
[Lisa] shopping? tourists
[Master] shopping is a valid thing, there are two markets
[Master] as for sneaking in, there is the one entrance
[Master] through customs
[Master] unless you include the two dungeon entrances
[Lisa] we are a group of travelling circus performers
[JohnAA] so then for Tobin, I see only one option or two. Miranda or none
[JohnAA] unless we let marco decide next week
[Master] Qui could go instead of Miranda
[Master] it depends on if you want the Dwarf with you to cause the distractions
[JohnAA] I'm sorry, I thought that was the point
[Lisa] Miranda is good - she will be good with poor heartsick Toybin too
[JohnAA] do we want a distraction Lisa?
[Master] anything that Ilero wants to do tonight before sleeping?
[Lisa] I think he could be quite useful
[Lisa] not only as a distraction
[Lisa] but also for his skills
[JohnAA] did anyone notice my star wars reffrence earlier?
[Lisa] Illero wants to appraise gems :)
[Master] when John?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (maybe?)
[JohnAA] I am not the priest you are looking for
[TMO] I noticed the Princess Bride reference
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes I did)
[Master] sorry no
[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)
[JohnAA] i never planed the religon on the force, but I liked the name so it's so hard not too
[Master] Goodnight Toybin, sweet dreams, I will most likely kill you in the morning
[JohnAA] but I do have a early day, and i almost had too much fun
[TMO] Ilero can appraise, np.
[JohnAA] he is not here to say that
[JohnAA] have a good night and a great week
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Drive safe tomorrow! )
[TMO] gnite
[Master] post online when you can john
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (goodnight)
[JohnAA] TTFN
[JohnAA (to GM only)] Character sheet for QuiFon Ruminel modified:
[Master] and Ilero can make those rolls to the DM only
JohnAA has left the game on Fri Apr 20 21:38:27 EDT 2012
[TMO] d20, or d100?
[Master] the apprasing skill
[TMO (to GM only)] Ilero: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=17] 17 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!
[TMO (to GM only)] Ilero: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=18] 18 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!
[TMO (to GM only)] Ilero: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=14] 14 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!
[TMO (to GM only)] Ilero: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=9] 9 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!
[Master (to TMO only)] Ilero cannot figure out most of them, but the Rich Purple Corundum is worth 500 GP
Ilero (TMO) spends a few minutes looking at the gems in direct sunlight, holding each one up and looking at it from several angles. "Most I am not knowing well. This purple one here, I think, is 5 hundred gold value."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Very nice
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The rest we can look at again later perhaps
[Ilero (TMO)] Sorry. Gems is hard to judge sometimes.
Branwyn (Lisa) shrugs "The one you were able to is worth much. It is good."
[Ilero (TMO)] How sneaky we have to be to get into citadel?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Just to get into the citadel area? Not at all
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I think we have to get in like anyone else.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But the various buildings once inside. Now that's a different story
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Put the map out on the table for a second
Ilero (TMO) does so.
[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 48'10".
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] knock knock
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If I was stashing a princess, I don't think I would put her in the dungeon with other prisoners and guards
[Master] Time of Day: 08:00 PM. Day 10 Fin ___ de, Lec {Early Summer} 10th, 342 SKR.
[Ilero (TMO)] So, Lords Fortress here is sneaky part?
[Master] Time of Day: 08:15 PM. Day 10 Fin ___ de, Lec {Early Summer} 10th, 342 SKR.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I think so
[Master] Toybin of Castling moved 6'06".
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Come in!
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the princess is sleeping
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Amazing. It will be hard for me to sleep tonight
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] we want to make an early start so I thought I would see if you needed any help tonight
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We were just looking at the map of the citadel
[Ilero (TMO)] Know of secret passage into Citadel maybe?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If I was going to hide a princess I would want to keep her close to me
Toybin of Castling (Master) shakes his head
Ilero (TMO) grins wryly. "It was worth asking.:
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I know there is a very large underground section
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] cisterns, supposed dungeons and prisons
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but I have never been in there,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I ate with the Count once
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and visited the temple that time I was there
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And how did you get a dinner invitation with the Count?
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] there is a small church to Cahus in the Citizen's district I prayed at,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] Oh I was there for a dinner for his son's knighthood
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the three of us were together at Court and I was invited to the celbration
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Any advice how we can get access to the Count ourselves?
[Ilero (TMO)] charm
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] tell them who you are
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] you are the Court Mage for the Jistille Estates,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] that will make you a point of conversation, something interesting for a boring dinner
[Branwyn (Lisa)] humph! It's not like I am the court jester.
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am sure Brother Stephanie will be interested in talking with you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But if that is what it takes....
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] afterall you did just build a new church for them
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is also true
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and Ilero and the others are from far away, that is always a conversation enticement
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but if they figure out why you are there, they might try to hide the Queen Presumptive in a different spot
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] we have a couple of weeks still to try to find her before we have to really panic
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It's not like we were going to walk in and just ask for her
[Ilero (TMO)] /Branwyn Do we have any magic for spying?
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] shakes his head, I might do just that
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but you are more used to adventures, I spend too much time at court
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But you had best describe her for us so that we may know her if we see her
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] (Missuss Mosskin, the Missus? you know her, you have spent years with her)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we have seen MIna???)
[Master] Missus Mosskin, Willimina Mosskin, the one who runs the Jistille Estates for her father?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you never used her first name that I remember and so I thought this one had to be a daughter at Court rather than at the Estates)
[Master] nope, your boss is missing
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oops)
[Master] if you save her she will be Queen
[Master] TMo you have questions you need cleared up too?
[Master] grins
[Master] now is the chance to ask away
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I don't think I have any spy spells - am kicking myself for not learning Otto's silver tongue but I figured it was more of a Llath spell I would save it for him but he never learned it)
[Ilero (TMO)] (I'm still getting used to this gaming format. :) So I'm not sure yet what ideas might be useful, and which might be ... less so.
[Master] everything is worth bringing up
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (anything you want to know)
[Ilero (TMO)] (lordy, don't tell me 'anything goes'. Y'all will never shut me up then. :D
[Master] good
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we will start in the morning by going to the customs gate to state our purpose of visiting)
[Master] well in the mornign you are traveling to the Citadel
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (then we will have to go places on the map - so really anything and everything can help)
[Master] the Vilmar Estates actuallly start just on the other side of teh Queen's Channel form the Inn
[Ilero (TMO)] I think going in as us is good, but that we needs have a reason for going in that direction, so they do not think we is there for them.
[Master] it will take you multiple days to travel there,
[Master] unless you go find Ponies again
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Ilero (TMO)] Got good one. We circle around citadel and come from other side. Saying we are travelling to city to meet with Queen, or buy supplies or something.
[Master] traveling at 12 miles per day with Indigo
[Master] and yes that works TMO
[Ilero (TMO)] If we not been to city yet, we not any danger to them. Not on mission for queen over kidnapping.
[Master] you can travel a bit out of the way in a circle to come up to the Citadel and go around the outside to the gate
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so plenty of time for more planning as we travel)
[Master] 16 miles as the crow flies
[Ilero (TMO)] We have any silence of invisible magics?
[Ilero (TMO)] We have charm, yes?
[Master] so 12 the frist day, then 6 or so the second day to go in a wide circle and come back around
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh Llathandryll oozes charm
[Master] and the In Character and Out of Character pages are up for the new story arc as well
[Ilero (TMO)] Good. Charm guard and get much information.
[Master] remember that Toybin said Mages were not in good standing there
[Master] just as a cautionary note
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
[Ilero (TMO)] Is Lath well known? Can he be hidden or disguised?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well if a guard has been charmed then he'll be happy to see a mage
[Master] Lisa all of Bran's spells are on the site now correct?
[Master] I am fairly certain that Llath's are not
[Master] and Lath is moderately known, for being an Elf that has been staying with the Jistille Estates
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Mine should be - Llath's spells and books are a complete mystery)
[Master] but he is not known on sight
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you can right click on Llath and see his character sheet and then look at his spell page to see what he's got)
[Ilero (TMO)] Simple disguise as foot soldier or porter.
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs
Branwyn (Lisa) thinking of Llathandryll as a porter
[Ilero (TMO)] (He has Charm Person, Forget, and Suggestion. All good spells)
[Ilero (TMO)] (Fly can also be helpful for getting Ilero into a hard to reach area)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yup - he is good with that stuff)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Toybin, we decided that Miranda shall go with you and the Princess tomorrow
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] are you sure?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I hope that she will be able to help you
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] It will be different to have a companion on my travels that I am not guarding
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I worry about you doing this alone
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am often alone
[Ilero (TMO)] (Polymorph Other can get Lath in also, if he will take the risk)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But with the stakes so personal? You must keep your wits about you and do anything foolish
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I agree that is sound reasoning
[Ilero (TMO)] (Or Ilero into something sneaky and innocuous)
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] and I will try to adhere to that
[Master] Miranda moved 26'01".
[Master] any other questions for him?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] These dungeons outside the walls. Are they in use?
[Ilero (TMO)] Any known weaknesses or covetatioins of lord of citadel, whose name I can not remember?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Vilmar)
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] those are not outside the walls, those are entrances through the wall into the dungeon,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I know they are there, I have never been through them, but I woudl imagine they are heavily guarded
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the only thing I would say is a weakness is that the Count is getting older and wants very much to see one of his sons as consort to the next Queen
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] the Vilmar name has a long history, not all of it pretty
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but they are one of the leading families of Drillian society
[Ilero (TMO)] Is it custom to bring gift when visiting Lord here?
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I am certain it will be appreciated
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And other than wanting to steal princesses, the sons are honorable sorts?
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] long pause
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] they are not worthy of being in the Royal Guard,
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] but the Queen did knight them
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] so they are part of the nobility
[Ilero (TMO)] But not noble in character?
[Toybin of Castling (Master)] I cannot say anything about their honor, but they have never done anything noteworthy either
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Such are many that were born into their positions rather than earning them
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you for the information Sir Toybin
Ilero (TMO) blinks.
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Illero
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes?

[Ilero (TMO)] Nothing. Not knowing layout of citadel, I can not make better plans, but can prepare so that making up plans on fly is easier once there.
[Ilero (TMO)] I will check stores here for equipment that may be help.
[Master] I do have maps of every building in the citadel, ground floor and up
[Master] plus the mulitple dungeon levels
[Master] grins
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (of course you do)
[Ilero (TMO)] (I just bet you do. :P Now if only Ilero had them...)
[Master] that can be the start of your mission, find maps of the place, grins
[Master] this is designed to take many weeks to play out the week or so that you are here trying to find her
[Ilero (TMO)] ok. Lath also has Find Secret Doors spell
[Ilero (TMO)] (that was ooc)
[Master] I will set up a time line for you to know how long you have to search here and when you have to leave for the Ghostwood Estates to search there quickly as well
[Lisa] thank you
[Master] 33 days left before the Coronation Ceremony
[Lisa] I will edit my OOC post to make it for splitting up the party inside the citadel
[Ilero (TMO)] (Up to Lath if he wants to wear a disguise or risk the Poly Other spell to infiltrate. Then we can bring him back once inside for his spells)
[Lisa] infiltrate what?
[Ilero (TMO)] Branwyn has Poly Self, which is safer, but we're not trying to hide her)
[Ilero (TMO)] (since mage's aren't popular, and we don't want to put them on their guard, was thinking to not let them know we have him with us.)
[Ilero (TMO)] (although if we have Branwyn, they might still be wary. Poly Self on her then, so that they are unaware we have mages at all?)
[Ilero (TMO)] (they are both known to be mages, right?)
[Lisa] but then that takes away my use as the court mage for Jistelle
[Master] Llath is known as being an Elf
[Master] they are rare and magical creatures
[Lisa] we are a walking freak show anyway you look at us
[Master] grins
[Lisa] we have a dwarf, gnome, two halflings, an elf and a half elf
[Lisa] what's a couple mages compared to all that? :-)
[Master] Branwyn just keeps exotic pets is all
[Lisa] and the otter too
[Master] and in case you did not look at the map, the Citadel is NOT in the Mist
[Lisa] right - quiFon will be useful
[Master] is that Map useful for you?
[Master] you have a decent understanding of the place with that?
[Lisa] I think so
[Lisa] debating on whether we want to split the party as far as the Inns are concerned too
[Lisa] put some of us in the low life inn
[Lisa] let Indigo go downstairs and gamble and see what the seedier people are saying
[Master] there is the chance to stay with someone as well, or at the Temple, etc
[Lisa] Indigo has gaming prof - might as well use it occasionally
[Master] TMO have you gotten in the habit of looking at the site during the week yet?
[Ilero (TMO)] not yet, sorry
[Master] I think that you two can have some good discussions on there about how to proceed, so that Guy and John know what you are thinking
[Master] wry grin, not trying to assign homework
[Lisa] It's a good spot to post ideas if you are thinking about stuff during the week
[Ilero (TMO)] what page should I use?
[Master] there is the Player Communication for generic stuff and an In Character and Out of Character page for every story arc
[Lisa] OOC if you want to throw stuff out there, IC if you are in the mood to roleplay
[Master] there are good examples on teh Friends Like These story arc
[Master] I cannot post this handout map to the site
[Master] but you have the birds eye view of the citadel there at least
[Master] any other questions?
[Lisa] not from me

[Lisa] okay going to go stare at broken foot and continue to stare in amazement that I did such a thing
[Lisa] see you next week
[Lisa] goodnight!
[Master] good night
[TMO] see you
Lisa has left the game on Fri Apr 20 22:46:43 EDT 2012
[TMO] Can you set up a 2012 section for Player Comm?
[Master] you just go on an edit the existing page
[Master] that is for 2012
[Master] the others are archives from previous years
[TMO] oh, gotcha
[Master] and when ever you need there is the search in the upper right, lower right of each page
[Master] that searches the entire site
[TMO] on the Comm page, are the most recent edits at the top, or the bottom?
[Master] top
[TMO] k
[Master] all set?
[Master] going to shut this down and save things
TMO has left the game on Fri Apr 20 22:52:13 EDT 2012
