[mharmon9] Hey Mike
[Master] and there he is
[Mike] hey
[mharmon9] anything excitingh going on?
[Mike] spent the afternoon unhooking all my video games and dvd from one tv, and hooking it up to a newer one. that was fun.
[Master] how large of a screen now?
[Mike] rebundled all the chords and all.
[Mike] uhhh... big?
[Mike] my friend got a new tv and just gave me this one
[Master] the new screen
[Master] size?
[Mike] big
[Mike] like, pretty damn big
[Master] 55?
[mharmon9] That's awesome!
[mharmon9] Some dark souls 3 on that baby!
[Mike] i could get a measuring tape, but i don't feel like getting up. i'd guess around there
[Master] our old TV was a 55
[Master] the new one is the 72
[mharmon9] Samsung?
[mharmon9] I got that one
[mharmon9] Costco
[Mike] this is the first real hd tv we've had in the house
[mharmon9] You'll love it
[Mike] so i'm looking at the ps3 on it, and it's glorious
[mharmon9] there is no going back
[mharmon9] what game?
[mharmon9] Try uncharted on it
[mharmon9] blow you away
[Mike] i have them, but right now i'm doing the hd remake of kingdom hearts.
[mharmon9] SWEET!
[mharmon9] I didn't know they did an HD Remake?
[mharmon9] why have i not heard of this
[Master] our current TV is a panasonic Michael, because they were the last to make a plasma at the size I wanted
[mharmon9] You like Plasma?
[Master] yeah
[Master] sports
[mharmon9] I've always just had lcd
[mharmon9] does it look better?
[Master] much better for fast action things
[mharmon9] huh
[Master] some people say the blacks are darker on an lcd
[Master] and modern lcds are much better at quick motion
[mharmon9] Do they still make pllasma? I think they'be been making different things now
[Master] nope
[Master] OLED
[Mike] my friend just got the last model of samsung
[Master] is the way to go now
[Master] nice Mike
[Mike] since it's now not 4000 dollars
[mharmon9] Well, he'll like it
[Mike] so we broke it in with star wars
[Mike] i think it looked better than real life.
[mharmon9] Which one? Origional or the ones that i don't count as existing?
[Mike] the new one
[Master] grins
[mharmon9] The new new one?
[Master] nice Mike
[Mike] the detals on the tech was super. makes me want to get a blue ray player of my own.
[Mike] oh wait, the ps3 does that. oh freaking sweet
[mharmon9] I was about to say...
[mharmon9] Your good!
[Mike] i forgot about that. well that just made my day even better.
[Master] grins
[Master] did I show you the HTC Vive video?
[mharmon9] Nope
[mharmon9] But mine will be coming in may!
[Master] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYfNzhLXYGc&feature=youtu.be
[Master] This is the Vive
[Master] and I will have all of that in the library
[Master] meaning the large green screen room,
[Master] everythign except the professional steadycam rig
[mharmon9] watching, one moment
[mharmon9] haven't seen this video
[mharmon9] lots of others
[mharmon9] but not this one
[mharmon9] Welcome to the future
[Master] grins
[Master] I live in the future
[mharmon9] I wonder how many people will become addicts. Preferrring to live in a virtual world then the real one.
[Master] I think that is unlikely
[Master] I do thinkt hat people will prefer to interact with peopel there

Lisa has received the map DryadsLair_Diplomatic Quarter.
[Master] rather than meat space
[Master] and Hello Lisa
[mharmon9] Hey Lisa!
[Mike] that's pretty sweet
[Lisa] Hi Michaael :)
[mharmon9] Yeah this is awesome bob.
[Mike] hey lisa
[mharmon9] I can't wait fo the robot repair
[mharmon9] but i was always a fan of portal
[Mike] so you'll have the capability to show everyone else what is going on?
[Master] yeap
[Mike] oh man, a fully vr portal would be killer
[Master] already can do that
[mharmon9] I would throw money at them
[Mike] that's pretty sweet.
[Master] once we get the full green screen room we can show the person INSIDE of the vr lke in that video
[Mike] when you get it set up i'll have to come play around.
[Master] right now I can show what the person in VR shows
[Master] that is up and running at the library now
[mharmon9] I think i'm going to remodel the theatre room...
[mharmon9] just have to find some green screens
[Master] they sell the fabric by the yard
[mharmon9] Really?
[mharmon9] I was kidding. I don't think I could fully do that setup
[Master] on Amazon you can by large swatches, 12 foot by 20 foot
[mharmon9] Huh
[Master] and they make pain
[mharmon9] Need to do some thinking
[Master] paint
[Lisa] I hope so
[Lisa] they sell 30K lathes
[Master] grins
[Lisa] why not some fabric
[Master] now if they only sold curtain rods ;)
[mharmon9] why do they use green screens. Does any fabric worrk?
[Master] technically it is called Chroma Fabric
[Master] Chroma Key
[Master] can be green, blue, white, black,
[Master] but that particualr shade of Green works well as a replacement background
[Master] the old FX movies did blue screens
[mharmon9] I'm on Amazon. Doesn' t look too expensice. But that depends on how much work you want to end up doing
[Master] but that is also why in Star Wars there was Red, Yellow, etc squadron but no red
[Master] I mean blue
[Master] because the things in front of the color cannot be that color obviuosly when you replace things
[mharmon9] Got some 10x12 for 20 bucks
[mharmon9] and yes that makes sense
[Master] I have portable ones at the lbirary
[Master] BUT more to our task at hand tonight
[mharmon9] yes sorry
[Master] we finished with the City Council Meeting
[Master] we have dinner on the 28th at the residence
[Master] there are no special guests that I remember correct Lisa?
[Master] Just you and Jennevive to talk about the priests?
[Master] then the only out of sync things are Indigo and Ilero/Elle
[Master] Ilero is only 1 day out of sync
[Master] without TMO here it will be hard to get that in sync
[Master] although Mike if you have ideas for your winter camp site there on the river
[Mike] not really. i'm a bit out of the loop.
[Lisa] we can have branwyn talk to jennevive but branwyn wants the priests
[Master] ok
[Mike] as far as i understand we are waiting in the middle of nowhere hoping some smuggler meets uup with us
[Master] yes to Mike
[Lisa] if you would have read the letter I posted you would know that
[Lisa] you had gotten that far? Didn't know you all went walking
[Lisa] weren't you going to attack the transfer party?
[Master] TMO went to see what was up on that shore,
[Master] there was some speculatoin that the best time to rescue the prisoners in Barber would be on the transfer yes, but up to this point no one knows that they are prisoners
[Master] that depends on Jilly making it back
[Master] which I have on my schedule
[Lisa] hopefully she is faster than Indigo
[Master] grins
[Lisa] 6 months?
[Master] Indigo has only been gone 4 days? 5 days?
[Master] 5
[Lisa] he left same day as barbers and last post was day they were in town
[mharmon9] Same day?
[Lisa] over 2 months ago
[Master] the last post on Indigo's story arc was Feb 17
[Master] but it is only 5 days that have elapsed from when he left
[Lisa] yes that was where the over 2 months ago part came in
[mharmon9] okay
[Lisa] last post was the day that the group was in the tavern singng elf somgs
[Master] so Mike anything for Elle?
[Master] ideas on the campsite? what to do if when anyone shows up?
[Master] I will guess you are just waiting there? not going to drag Ilero back home
[Master] just to leave?
[Mike] stay quiet and let ilero do the talking
[Master] ok
[Master] and Hugh is tied up in the bugbear village
[Master] along with Anton
[Mike] this isnt' her thing. i can't make the decisions on what to do
[Master] which brings us back to Lisa
[mharmon9] Don[t mind me. Just tied up. And mostly dead
[Master] would you rather do Indigo right now? or Branwyn and Jennivive?
[Master] damn it dog brb
[Lisa] Indigo was supposed to be a purely website story arc unless something huge happened - unless you have something huge planned - that would be a no on Indigo
[Master] back
[Master] and ok
[Master] SO
[Master] Meeting with Jennivive in the normal dining room?
[Master] Ambassador of Josclin moved 24'02".
[Master] Ambassador Belinor of Turndile moved 15'05".
[Master] Penelope moved 26'11".
[Master] Ambassador of Thonriff moved 16'08".
[Master (to GM only)] Priestess #4 moved 1'00".
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (does map matter? you didn't load the maor just city hall)
[Master] not really just need to know where you want the meeting
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (doesn't matter)
[Master (to GM only)] Kayugan Priest moved 1'04".
[Master (to GM only)] Kayugan Priest moved 2'01".
[Master] Mike and Michael you have messages telling you things
[Master] Time of Day: 06:52 PM. Day 28 Fin ___ se, Fey {Mid Winter} 28th, 1266 TGR.
[Mike] okay, i'm apparently the priestess, lisa
[Master] and you are at the table now
[mharmon9] okay
[Master] there are names for you
[Master] and I will make them active in a moment to play with
[mharmon9 (to Master only)] bob, my name again?
[Master] after Jennivive intros you
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Hello Branwyn, Lord Branadarus
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good evening
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Did you have an enjoyable council meeting?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It was very informative I will say.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Uncle Tranto was not there. I hope he is not ill.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] That would be a vast improvement from the previous one I attended
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I have not heard of anything being wrong with him,
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I would think it woudl quickly fly through the city rumor mill
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] was anything accomplished?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Perhaps he is simply tired of the meetings as well.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I wonder if he is as tired as he always seems to be
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I told them that I would not be procuring magic items for them.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] one does not reach his level and stay there without
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] are you certain? perhaps let them continue to ask for them, while the group goes otu to collect them, then you could keep them
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And they were deciding how to increase their naval presence. That was quite infomrative.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you would know what they are looking for that way
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] how to increase the navy? no one agreed to new taxes I am certain
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh I know what they want and it would be very hard to get.
[mharmon9] brb, phone call
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] as I have not seen any pigs fly
[Branwyn (Lisa)] No one should have this particular magic item.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] which?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh this mind control ring they want.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I think that would be a wonderful item to have
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Talk about a demon mark. If anyone knew you had such a thing, people would be crawling out of the woodwork to kill you and take it for themselves.
Aunt Jennevive (Master) slight frown
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is better left far away and on the hand of another
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Well I do suppose that using such a thing would be frowned upon by many
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And certainly not in the hands to the Council
Aunt Jennevive (Master) shocked, NEVER
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] it must be with someone who understands such power
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] it must be used with a gentle subtle touch
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and the council makes a brick seem soft
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well I told them I would destroy it if I ever found it.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] IF we do find it you can give it to me to destroy
Aunt Jennevive (Master) smiles
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not likely
Aunt Jennevive (Master) rasises a toast
[mharmon9] hilarious, still on phone
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The Navy wishes to recruit from the Small Kingdoms and so I sent a letter to Her Majesty with a warning. It will go out in tomorrow's post.
Aunt Jennevive (Master) frowns
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Recruit? or IMpress?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Indigo spoke of your encountering Terraguardian ships when you traveled to Loosend
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I hope Phillipe get the new pouch before I leave for Josclin tomorrow. I wish to hear about my mmany letters of a month ago.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He said recruit but with strict rules.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I understand that there have been delays
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It would be like indentured servitude for a decade's term.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I will have your pouch out tomorrow as expected Branwyn
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I have not gotten in the previous month's missives
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I expect them to come tomorrow
Mario Teq LT has joined the game on Fri Apr 22 19:52:47 EDT 2016
Mario Teq LT is receiving the map Base Map...
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] will you be back for dinner?
Mario Teq LT has received the map Base Map.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Tomorrow? Oh no.
[mharmon9] hey mario, still on phone
[Master (to GM only)] Priestess #5 targets Aunt Jennevive. Distance: 6'03"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I must do whatever market thing is happening and then go to Josclin for a feast. I would think it would be rude tio simply pop out after dessert.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (hi Mario)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And so, did you find the priests who examined Mistress Waverlyn after her death? Unless we have another seance, they are probably the best lead we have right now.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] OH I have better
Aunt Jennevive (Master) smiels and takes a drink from her glass
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You have the murderer?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Mike you ready? Mario you read your message? Michael off the phone or able to play at least?)
[Mike] yeah
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] May I introduce Patron Withorn
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I foudn her and convinced her to join us here tonight
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] when I wanted to bring these other two guests to meet you
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Withorn is Mario)
[mharmon9] hey hurrying but cant right now. reading but cant actively play. looking through records
[mharmon9] hurrying though
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good evening Patron Withorn
Mario Teq LT bows " m'Lady"
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at the others
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Friend Junyorth was with Patron Withorn
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Along with Abbot Corynth
Lord Branadarus (Master) raised eyebrow
Aunt Jennevive (Master) nods
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good evening to you both. Thank you for coming.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Corynth is Mike, Withorn is Michael)
[Mario Teq LT] We were promised sweet breads
Aunt Jennevive (Master) frowns,
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] There will be no sweet breads
[Mario Teq LT] or was that AMOTHER ruse?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] pray I do not alter the deal further
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (mario is junyroth then?)
Mario Teq LT diverts eyes, smile gone
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (yes and now a PC for yo Mario)
[Mario Teq LT] (Sorry am i Withorn or Juryoth?)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (DOH Withorn sorry
[Mario Teq LT] (lol cool!)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would have come to the Celestry to meet you so you would not be so inconvenienced. I do appreciate you coming and hope you enjoy dinner.
[Withorn (Master)] Mario = Withorn Michael = Junyorth Mike = Corynth
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Even without sweet breads?
Aunt Jennevive (Master) a light laugh
Mario Teq LT smiles again "oh, i can do without any,thank you"
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] It was a ruse I agree
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and yes if you wish there can be sweet breaks
[Mario Teq LT] not a very funny one. One does look forward to sweet breads
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Mario you can Chat As now)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I will let Patron Withorn tell you about these two
[mharmon9] okay i'm good
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] before
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If I had known I only had to feed priests to get them to visit I would have had sent invitations sooner
[mharmon9] i need a quick refresher on my character bob please. i'm sorry. kind of distracted
[mharmon9] character notes?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (can branwyn tell any difference between these three?)
[Mario Teq LT] (sorry, dont see Withorn in the lest to the left
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=2] 2 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 18!!
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Branwyn now recognizes what Jennivive meant, Corynth, is a Greek Priestest by her title, and she keeps looking at Junyorth for comfort perhaps?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (did you see Withorn now Mario?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (seated at the table)
[mharmon9] For some reason, I cannot chat as
[mharmon9 (to Master only)] also, you say an affair. Am i married or...
[Aunt Jennevive (Master) (to mharmon9 only)] you are from two different religions
[Mario Teq LT] sorry no
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I right click on the character and chat as
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] or click on the character then click on the chat ballon in the tool bar
mharmon9 how is that an affair? Is that this world? Then screw my religion
[mharmon9] oh shoot
[mharmon9] sorry bob only
Branwyn (Lisa) eyes the Greek priestess uncofortably
[mharmon9] And yes i tried that. for some reason the chat as wont work
[Mario Teq LT] lol
[Mario Teq LT] I am back at the keyboard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Jennevive, I wished to have a very open conversation about certain activities. Are you sure that this is the right evening to do this?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] yay found it
[mharmon9] Yeah, it will only let me track the character
[mharmon9] sorry bob
[mharmon9] i've done this pleanty of times before, just giving me trouble tonight
[Master] Ok, Lisa can you chat as any of the three new ones?
[Master] Mike? can you
[Master] ok Mario what was it?
[Abbot Corynth (Lisa)] (yes)
[Patron Withorn (Lisa)] yes
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] yeah
[Master] excellent, thank you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not junyroth though)

[Friend Junyorth (Master)] testeing
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not just you)
[mharmon9] nope.
[Master] ok, try now please Michael
[mharmon9] have the option for others but not that one
[mharmon9] okay
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] okay
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] it
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] great
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and Back to Lisa's question
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Jennevive, I wished to have a very open conversation about certain activities. Are you sure that this is the right evening to do this?
Aunt Jennevive (Master) smiles at Branwyn
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I think you will find this a very interesting story
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] very illustrative of our problem tracking down things
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (as always, play your characters the way you see fit, I will twist the bits back into the story as needed, grins)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I had to convince Patron Withorn to come
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and bring his two....
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] captives
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well then I should pour another glass of wine and sit back. I enjoy stories.
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (ahh, im a dude, cool)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] yes it seems i caught these two red handed
Branwyn (Lisa) fills her and Branadarus' glasses
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] Miss Branwyn, is that blessed wine?
Lord Branadarus (Master) nods at Branwyn, glancing with interest at Corynth
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] if im not getting sweet breads...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I should hope not. Should one drink blessed wine?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] well, we dabble in ANY wine, i suppose, but if its been blessed, then its less sinful...it smells delicious
Branwyn (Lisa) eyes Atribella to make sure the priests are properly supplied with wine
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I can bring a new wine if you would like to bless it Patron?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Perhaps you shoul;d bless it for us. Jennevive never takes care of those things.
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles at Jennevive
Aunt Jennevive (Master) smiles
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] if it pleases the the Marquessa (?!?!? lol)
Atribella Olivin (Master) brings in another flask of wine
Atribella Olivin (Master) sets it in front of Withorn
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (rofl oh no!)
[Master (to Mario Teq LT only)] you can pass your hands, cast a bless, etc., no need to actuallly do a spell
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But of course
Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT) gesticulates wildly, speaks funny for about five seconds. "there! better than ever!"
Branwyn (Lisa) raises eyebrows and looks over at Tiberius
Aunt Jennevive (Master) gestures to pass a goblet over to Branwyn
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Try that and see if you notice a difference
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you Patron.
Aunt Jennevive (Master) nods at Branwyn to indicate she beleives it is ok
Branwyn (Lisa) takes a sip
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL FAILED against 18!!
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (and Mario? did you just poison Branwyn?)
Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT) bows "my pleasure, im sure its much better now
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] LOL
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (WTF?!?!)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh ... ummm ... much better.
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (NOT AGAIN!!!)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i thought that's what my character was going to do
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (LOL no)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Holy crap bob. We can't do that now
Aunt Jennevive (Master) smiles
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] now
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I wanna kill hiim
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Perhaps Patron Withorn could speak up
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and say where he found these two?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] Yes, M'Lady
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and why I thought you would want to meet them here
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] ...
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] Our search party left to find the murderer, and we knew Mistress Waverlyn was POISONED
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] During our search, we stopped in a tavern, to fortify and bless wine, and I heard these two talking about...POISON
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You sent out a search party?
Branwyn (Lisa) looks surprised
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] fortify a tavern?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] wut
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I thought you just did some casting about her remains
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] so naturally we knew they we the killers, so we waited until they left the tavern, and 'apprehended' them for trial
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Mike, Michael, feel free to speak up at any point)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] we casted and found POISON
[Branwyn (Lisa)] These people at our table murdered the Ambassador?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] and these two were speaking of POISON
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] YEs, I caught threm red handed
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] speaking of POISON
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] (well if i had poision and were talking about it, i don't really know my backstory so for all i know i must have poisoned her
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I just know we were having an affair
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs
[Aunt Jennevive (Master) (to mharmon9 only)] so say that, say she would not have done it you love her and do not think she coudl do it
[Abbot Corynth (Mike) (to Master only)] test
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Speaking os poison in general or speaking if killing the Ambassador?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike) (to Master only)] should i be denying it or just admitting?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] Bob, one moment, i'm typing out my repply
[Aunt Jennevive (Master) (to Mike only)] your choice, you did not DO anything except love Junyorth up to you what you admit to
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] that's not how life worrks. For all i know she could have done it. I dont always know people and people do snap. Now, is there some sort of proof that proves it wasn' ther?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] well, we listened, heard poison, and put two and two together. and of course, we all know what happens when two different religions canoodle and cjole
[Aunt Jennevive (Master) (to mharmon9 only)] who knows? grins, that is what we will find out as you three roleplay it out
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Yeah, heavens forbid we even talk to someone different
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] Bob, i'm willing to try, but this is something even I really don't want to do. I play to relzx not get anxiety. I can only do so much fair warning
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] and we all know that leads to frvolity and mayhem, and leads the mind to sin
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] so of ocurse they did it
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Yes, it will lead us to slaughter farmers in their fieild. Next we shall burn down the temple and dance naked through the streets
Branwyn (Lisa) wishes Imari was here
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Did you put a truth spell upon them and they admitted their crime?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master) (to mharmon9 only)] so be adamant that she could not have done it, and go back and forth with Mike on it
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] well, no, but they fought us fiercely, denying the charges when we apprehended them, so...
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Yes Patron, did you bother to go with basic rights? Or did you feel you could just crucify us?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] clearly theyy are guilty
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "We were just discussing how each faith cures poison."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] or any priest with zone of truth...
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Clearly we have been denyied someone with common sense
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] you know, just about ANY priest...
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] /maro yes you can play up that you did not have any spells avaialble that day, then the last three days of getting back to the City were so full. etc. etc.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Ambassoador if you think we posioned your predecssor, then I would be willing to undergo a truth spell directly to your face and you can stab me if you feel your answers are unsatifactory
[Master] Friend Junyorth: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 19!!
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I don't know what that does bob
Aunt Jennevive (Master) frowns,
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I cannot tell if he is tellign the truth or not
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Okay, then i can say it to your face
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] well, they looked guilty, and why would they resist so much?
Aunt Jennevive (Master) looks at Branwyn with an appologetic shrug
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would do nothing of the sort. If you commited murder I would turn you over to Prince Loplin
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Hm, perhaps anyone about to die would put up a struggle for stupidity
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This is ridiculous.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] so's yer face!
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] lol
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Patron Wilthorn, did you or did you not perform the spells on the former Ambassador after her death?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] and the horse you rode in on
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i prayed for the truth, and a sign to find the killers, and when we entered the tavern, i was immediately drwn to these two
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] We were sitting right next to the damn door
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i did not, as i was lead by a divinal path right to them. There was no need
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] that, and i was out of spells fo rthe day..
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Heacvens forbid you not have a divine path to your shoe laces
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] you might trip and fall off a cliff!
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i'm so conflicted on what to do right now. give lisa some advice as a player of the party or just be quiet because i'm supposed to be this npc
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Phillipe, was this the priest you spoke with after the Ambassador's death?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] yeah, i really don't like situations like this bob
Branwyn (Lisa) points at Withorn
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] No
[Branwyn (Lisa)] JENNEVIVE
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I asked for the priest who cast on the Ambassador's remains and you bring me these fools?
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (and MIke and Michael you both do what you feel as players, it is supposed to be fun, and I will take the threads you create and weave them in the stores)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] is this amusing to you?
Aunt Jennevive (Master) holds up a finger
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] well i'm done taking. mike told me not to
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] lisa, why aren't you questioning us with some truth spells?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Watch where you are pointing.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] this guy is a weirdo. sorry, mario
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (lol)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] he says we're guilty, question us
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I have no truth spells)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] jen does
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] she just used one on michael
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Jenn cast it on Junyorth but failed)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] though he made a crazy save
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] but you haven't questioned me yet
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] a... ahem... GREEK preistess...
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Jennivive holds up a finger, not pointing at Branwyn
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I would not waste your time Branwyn
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] these three each holds a key
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but I am not certain hwo they all fit together yet
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] AFK
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] ?me checks pocket, finds no key, puzzled
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Can any one of you even provide the name of the former Ambassador?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (yes you all can)
Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT) excited, jumpimgly "ohh, ohhh, i can!!"
Branwyn (Lisa) sighs
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do you know the name of the priest who did cast on the former Ambassador after her death? I would still like to speak to them.
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] so, do i get some kind of reward for catching these two?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Catching these tow at what? Unsavory discussions?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Why haven't they been brought to the Celestry and properly interrogated if they are murderers?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (two)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] they are inter-denpminational canoodling, and also POISON!!
Aunt Jennevive (Master) looking at Branwyn with a raised eyebrow
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] well, we werent going in thast direction for the last few days
Aunt Jennevive (Master) nods at the Preistess
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So you want me to lock them up until we can find a priest who can cast?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We are in the Kayugan capitol city for gods sakes!
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I can try again soon
[Abbot Corynth (Mike) (to Master only)] well, i've done all i can. you said we hold the key, i said question all of us, and lisa's ignoring us both. i'll apparently get off scott free by just not talking
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] im sure the jail accodations are nicer than most, then...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Patron Withorn what were your orders that made you search for these two?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i was told to search fior the person, or as we see personS, who killed the ambassador
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Who told you?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Okay i'm back
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i know she was POISONED
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] You keep saying that word. I'm not sure it means what you think it means
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (did you order the code red?)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (lolol)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Who gave you the order?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] lol
Branwyn (Lisa) sighs "Why can't priests just answer simple questions directly?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] the celestry priests, who performed the autopsy
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And their names?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] they said i could best help by looking for the KILLERS
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] /maro nope no names
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is what I wnat to know!
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] um, im not allowed to hang out in the celestry all that much, cuz they said i'm a last nerve something...
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] but it was a tall guy in a robe with a beard
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] lol
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Howard "Now, that is Useless!"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And as for you two
Branwyn (Lisa) looking at the others
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] /perks up "ive been called that, too!"
[Master] I will let Branwyn make an intuition check
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Still willing to do the truth spell for you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Other than being involved andf discussing poison, did you even know the former Ambassador?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I met her at a party once
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] she was tall, and ...pretty?...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: INU check: (d20) [1d20=7] 7 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 11!!
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] She seemed into greeks for some reason
[Master] He just described Inquisitor Sinthorn
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Withorn and frown
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Quite Useless.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] she spoke to my finace a few times
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] what did she say sweetheart?
Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT) starts to speak, then stops and loooks down
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] (make up something epic)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] we're supposed to be secret lovers
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] not anymore
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] AHA!!! i knew it!!!
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] the patron made sure of that
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] sigh.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I don't remember much. Sorry."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] there. i'll save my useless man's ass, too.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And you would cast a truth spell upon your beloved?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Fine with me, I know she didn't do it
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] is this how women live their lives? saving useless men's asses all the time?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (funny - I pictured Sinthorn without much hair at all)
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
[Master] (Sinthorn is bald with a beard)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] okay done talking. if i'm gonna get flac for trying then i don't really want a part in it
[Branwyn (Lisa)] More often than we'd like Abbott
[Master] (Michael, everyone is doign fine, just lots of back and forth, you have Junyorth and Corynth doing fine)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh no - long term relationship snips - it's nomal)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] it sem si make you unhappy, marquessa?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] nope. I have limits.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you just got captured and arrested - you would expect people to be a little frayed around the edges)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (seems i)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Unhappy is not quite the word I would use.
Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT) bows head
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] well, im a lettle unnerved with no sweet breads
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do you think you deserve anything more than what you have in exchange for what you have provided?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I am certain that each of them is hiding something, well perhaps Withorn has told you all he actually knows
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] maybe i can lick the bowl, maybe??
[Branwyn (Lisa)] In any event, if your friend agrees then cast this spell upon the Abbot and let us be done with this thing
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] ohhh, spell casting! exciting!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are a patron! What are you talking about?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Never mind. Stop talking.
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] ya, but my spells NEVER work
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (only needs a 9 wisdom and Intelligence can be as low as he wants, ..... grins)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you should be 5th level priest! lol)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (remember also promotions can be for political reasons.... hint hint to both Lisa and Mario)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (sorry, never played a spell-caster before, just winging it)
Branwyn (Lisa) waits for spell looking at Junyroth
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I cannot cast the spell can I?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I don't know what my skills are
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (no worries Mario, the key thing you are looking for, that fits in with what you are playing is ... A character never loses a level, once a level or title is earned it is not taken away. If the character loses a level through adventuring, they are expected to voluntarily move back to the appropriate title.)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Michael you would only have 1st adn 2nd level spells
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you can do bless, etc.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Well then I cannot preform truth spells
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I do not have the skill for truth spells M'lady
Branwyn (Lisa) drains her glass
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] May I suggest starting from the opposite end Branwyn?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Is there any reason I should not lock you up by the sewers until I can notify the Celestry?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] You are welcome too. But, I will say that it will look poorly upon you politically
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We can put them in the room by the sewer gate and I lock them in.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] We will go voluntarily
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh no. I'll just blame Patron Withorn.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] That's fine.
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] haha, there you go, youll be locked up for POISON
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He brought you to me.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I'll go happily
Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) smiles at the patron
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] "this will be good"
Lord Branadarus (Master) asks quietly,
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] Abbot do you feel safe in the city?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] wait, ill be blamed? for finding two murderers?
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] ??
[Branwyn (Lisa)] \(was waiting for Mike)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] test
[Master] OK
[Master] so
[Master] at this point we have ..... Jennivive failed on her attempt to force the truth out of Junyorth
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] for what?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i'm not saying anything
[Master] Corynth has not said anything
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] exactly.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (your character got asked a question_
[Master] Withorn has shown he is generally barely competent
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] he pleads the fifth i guess
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] am i an abbot?
[Master] Yes to Mike
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] cant blame him
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i didn't realize
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Of course not. Most of the Kyugan faith want to kill me."
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] Then why are you here?
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] How did you meet this Priest? nods at Junyorth
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] because... reasons? i don't know my character's motivation.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] which is why i hate playing npc's
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i never have enough to go on.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I like that response. Reasons.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] THe abbot loves me, therefore he is here
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (brb walking Coal)
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] (it is a PC for right now, no one has ever seen this person before, and it is much better than me talking as 5 of the 6 characters at the table)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] (good enough reason?)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i would assume i met you here.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] sure yeah lets go with that
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] So you two are in love?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Because there are some of my faith here, so I am duty bound to tend to them."
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] And ya know. Reasons
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] not after he volunteered to cast a truth spell on me
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] lol
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we were both shopping for healing herbs when our fingers touched the sage at the same time and .. we both just knew)
Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) rolls eyes
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (make something up :) )
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] (me rolling eyes)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] not character sorry
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] when our fingers touched as we reached for the sage for the first thyme
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Ultimately, does it matter? We both are hearlers that live here.
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] groans
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Dear god did you just say that?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] See, what other reason could there be M'lord? The thyme come for us to never part
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Where are you from originally, Abbott?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] morodr
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] *Mordor
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] for...reasons.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Sorry cannot help it Mike
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Maybe. What does it matter?"
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] (that was to Lisa)
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] What I want to know is simple
Lord Branadarus (Master) looking at Junyorth
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] did you kill AMbassador Waverlyn?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (tsorry Internet dropped for a sec)
Lord Branadarus (Master) looks over at Corynth, did you kill ambassador Waverlyn?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Yes."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes?
Lord Branadarus (Master) jaw drps
Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) Looks up in astonishment
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] waht?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] "what"
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] what did you say?
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] You poisoned the Ambassador?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] ::raises an eyebrow::
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] since mario isn't here...POISONED
Aunt Jennevive (Master) smiles and nods knowingly at Branwyn
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I told you it would be an interesting conversation
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and LOL with Michael
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i told you to question us more directly an hour ago for a reason.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And you sit her calmly and admit it? Care to explain why?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] huh, well i'm a co-conspirator for murder. i'm not defending my position any more
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (LOL at Miachel again)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Junyorth, did you kill the ambassador?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Well, I didn't but i guess im a co-conspirator so uh. Yeah I guess I did
Branwyn (Lisa) shakes her head
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] What did you do to kill her?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Um, i'm not sure
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] (hellp me out guys, this isn't CLUE. what was my murder weapon? Fire? Poison?
Branwyn (Lisa) gestures to Philippe to come closer
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] back "for the first thyme?? brilliant" and yes, POISON!!
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] lol
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] lol
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] he only said it a million times in caps
[Aunt Jennevive (Master) (to mharmon9 only)] you did not kill anyone and you had no idea your love of your life had antying to do with anything
[Master] Phillipe Gaston Enquire moved 31'02".
Branwyn (Lisa) whispers "close the door"
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] she isn't really helping her case
Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) nods
[Master] Phillipe Gaston Enquire moved 34'07".
[Master] Joseph Shortkin moved 37'09".
[Master] Joseph Shortkin moved 38'10".
[Master] Atribella Olivin moved 23'03".
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] do i have any weapons or offensive spells
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] Wiat, so i was right?
[Master (to mharmon9 only)] no spells effectively and no weapons in the city, you could plead, talk her into explaining exactly what happened and more importantly why
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] imeean, Of course i was right! told ya!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn casts a spell against : Knock: All locks in a (10*11) 110 square foot area are unlocked.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] yeah, but I wont defend a murderer
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it's reversible)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) (to Master only)] just the way it is
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so locked)
[Master (to mharmon9 only)] then you have to trust me, grins, and work with Mike on this he has info, you have info you have to talk it out in roleplay
[Master] Nods had guessed that, grins
Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) Murmers to Abbot "did you really kill her?" I don't believe you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So let us have some more wine and the Abbot can tell us why he killed the Ambassador
[Master] (she)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] yes, please
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sorry - she)
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] the wine, that it
Atribella Olivin (Master) pours wine for everyone
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Because the ambassador wanted a holy war against the Greeks." i think. maybe. help me out here, bob
[Master] (very good Mike)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And how did you get into the house? It was well protected.
[Master] (you have a message also Mike)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] okya. hang on
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I didn't."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So what item did you poison?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I didn't."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We've established that the cause of death was poison and you said you killed her. Explain.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I hired a professional."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] cmon, lisa! remember what you know so far
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] BRB bathroom
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i'm the one who forgets everything
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I know - i want to hear it in character because I am not sure this is real)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (i am not going to feed answers in my questions)
[Master] LOL at Mike
[Master (to Mike only)] be as creative and underhanded, conspirasy as you want, I can make it all work out, the basics are there for you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Who is the person you hired? We would like to arrest them as well since you are keen on confession this evening.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I was told by a priest of Hades to come and remove the ambassador from this plane."
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i should get the credit for THAT guy as well
[Master (to Mike only)] obviusly a concealed fake name, a famous assassin is the only one that would get through
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I see no reason why I should keep secrets. The ambassador was a terrible person who wanted a war against my faith."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] she was basically a jihadist suicide bomber
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Patron Withorn, I think that you get far too much credit as it is,
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] perhaps you should be content
Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT) giddy " do you really think so?! wow!"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You will find no argument from me as to her character. But assassination is not the correct answer. You could have exposed her schemes.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But you and this priest of Hades chose murder.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "In the seat of the Kyugan faith? You know nothing of faith, wizard."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Are you surprised?"
[Master] (Hades: all hope must fade)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Surely you know my master."
[Master] watches flower wither
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not particularly. The only priests of Hades I have come in contact with have been fools and thieves or dead by thir own ambition.
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at flower
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Is that supposed to frighten me?
[Master] (that was me OOC, not the Abbot)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I just don't know why you are so surprised that Hades would want someone killed."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I shouldn't be. You are correct. But bad actions come with consequences.
[Master] all magic has a price
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Yes. We have averted a war. One life for that. And people say my master is evil."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] brb
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And since I found out about this plan, I have dome my best to end all thoughts and talk of such a thing.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Okay back. And the plot ...thickens? Wait, is bob here? usually he just adds six more steps. Do i need to crack open some champaigne?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I mean, i'm probably going to die, but Hugh will be delighted
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I need to end this and make sure I or Drillian for that matter are not wrongly perceived to be in alliance with Waverlyn's schemes.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] back
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Do what you wish. I have done my duty."
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I will join her.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I love her
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] And wouldn't be seperated from her
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And where is this priest of Hades so that I may speak with him?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Home."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And where is home?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] wherever the psudo greek isles are in bob's world
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I was hoping you would say he was an archbishop in Drillian)
[Master] (no a Greek Country to the east
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] NONEXTRADITION BIATCH!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (that would be too easy - oh he was burned to a crisp by his own fire elemental)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I just lost my coke through my nose
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] thanks mike
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] always here to help
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And would you have killed me?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Continue to murder all Drillian ambassadors or was this one enough?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Surely you see her plans have failed miserably.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] well to be fair, for all we know they haven' t
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] our Patron friend over here seems pretty into this witch hunt OOC
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Only if I was told to."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "But so far you have stayed true to your word. You seem to genuinely dislike the idea of a holy war."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You need to give me this priests name so that I may send him a message.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Drillian shall never be responsible for a holy war in another kingdom.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I don't think so. I am sorry. If you wish, I will give him a message letting him know you wish to speak with him."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The notion was hers and hers alone.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Be careful. You promise more than you can deliver.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I speak for Drillian as its Ambassador.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have the Queen's ear and she has never shown religious uintolerance.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We have a swamp full of vampires!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We live under a Mist that allows them to exist.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] oh that's right
[Master] brb
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] i forgot about that
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What are a few Greeks?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It makes no matter in our world.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] ask the trojans
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] lol
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is my duty to protect and serve Drillian and it makes no sense to inflame a holy war that will ultimately be blamed on us.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Good. Then let me go home and relay this to my superiors."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So if there is time for you to send such a message, it would be wise for you to do so. But you understand that I cannot allow you to leave this house until I may summon the Royal Gyard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Guard)
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "That would be the best way to keep you from being targeted again."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You have murdered the Ambassador of Drillian. You do not get to walk away from that.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "And that is showing good will toward us?"
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] well technically, she has comitted coluded manslaughter in the first degree
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "She was guilty of far greater crimes than the murder of one person."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I immagine your own queen would have excecuted her."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "We simply skipped ahead to prevent war."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I can understand it angers you, but you have to admit that my points are valid."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "And since I will not give you the name of my superior, the only way to be sure he knows it is done and there is no threat from your country is to let me go to him."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Anything else still may be a danger to your country and queen. And isn't it your duty to prevent just that?"
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] Looks like youre at a Milwood Standoff
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] woo! now there's a hard pill to swallow. hehheh
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] i love it!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Mistress Waverlyn was a reprehensible person that I despise with all of my being.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] danger, lisa. morally gray zones ahead. mwahahahahaha
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If you killed her in battle or self defense I woul congratulate you.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Wasn't it self defence?"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But assassination is not the answer and I do not serve Drillian by allowing such things to go by and turn my head
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The Crusade was talk. The Kayugans had not sounded the call.
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You had other options and you chose murder.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I chose nothing."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "My god chose. It is my duty to follow his commands."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If I was here I would have exposed her and brought her to justice. Not destroy her at my whim.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] A priest of Hades is no god. A priest is just a person making choices.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And because I will not kill you where you sit, there will be plenty of time to deliver messages to your master before punishment is meted out for your actions.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We live in the land of divination after all.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Junyroth, you were in on this plot or just in love with an assassin?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "It was Hades who commanded."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "He is a god. Whether you follow him or not."
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Well, this is all news to me. However, If she dies, I will die with her. I wont be seperate
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "If that is your choce, so be it. But I would be careful abotu what you eat."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Commanded the priest who commanded you. Yes, yes. All god and no responibility.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "But I do suggest you give me leave to deliver my message."
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "It would be in the best interest for you and your country."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And if it was your god who commanded you then you should be able to tell him right now that I have no part of this plot.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I do not worry about my life. I give my service to Hades gladly."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Why do you need to leave to speak with Hades>
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "You really are faithless, aren't you."
Friend Junyorth (mharmon9) mustters "i worry about her life"
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I need to tell my superior. Hades will not listen to a lowly servant such as myself."
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] brb
[Branwyn (Lisa)] if faith includes murder and threats then I want no part of it.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "But you should know how they work at least. This is a world of gods, after all."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] All of you have done here tonight is admit to murder and issue threats on my life which is innocent of the crimes you wish to avenge.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "Only the highest can command the direct attention."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] How sanctimonious is that?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Then send your superior word or tell us his name so that friends we know in the Greek shurch may speak to him for you.
Aunt Jennevive (Master) raises a finger again
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Abbot Corynth, you did not poison AMbassador Waverlyn correct?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "No."
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] No you did not or no I am wrong and you did?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do not split hairs Jennevive.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] What we know is that Ambassador Waverlyn was poisoned, and somehow Abbot Corynth had somethign to do with it
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I did not."
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] so We have the reason she died, the impetus of the thrust so to speak
[Branwyn (Lisa)] She admitted to hiring someone to do it? I want that name as well.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but we do not have the actual weapon
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not meant to be a question sorry)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] If only we knew a master thief who had connections with the underground society here in the City who might help us find a powerful assassin who deals with poisons
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] snicker
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Or you could get one of your priests to force her to speak truthfully
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't know why we are debating this. [Aunt Jennevive (Master)] please?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you want to give her over to me, for me to take to the church to question?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I brought her here to you because I suspected she woudl provide useful information to you
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I would be glad to bring her to the Grand Celestry
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This is useful somewhat. Some priest of Hades ordered a murder and this one subcontracted the job.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Didn't want to get your hands dirty Abbott?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The murder will stilll stick with you whether you delivered the poison yourself or not.
[Master] Mike?
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] sorry
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am not sure if I trust you Jennevive to take care of this properly. If you take her to the Celestry then I would come alomg to make sure you do not free her or harm her.
[Abbot Corynth (Mike)] "I did my duty."
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Oh I would never free her
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and I could make sure that Patron Withorn was there to guide her
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] I can take her. I need to get home anyway
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is comforting, but we will not kill her either.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am still shocked at Patron Withorn's ability to take custody of anything.
Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT) flattered "Thank you!"
[Abbot Corynth (Mike) (to Master only)] if you don't use this as an opportunity to make lisa work with this priestess to uncover the whole plot...
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i did my best
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am grateful for you efforts.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master) (to Mike only)] I have to let the players do what they wish
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Tiberius, do you know of a priest of Hades who would order such a thing?
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I can image quite a few Priests of Hades who would think such things
[Lord Branadarus (Master)] But I do not know of any who planned any harm to Ambassador Waverlyn
[Abbot Corynth (Mike) (to Master only)] i'd play her. she should be given a pardon and told to work with branwyn to uncover the plot
[Lord Branadarus (Master) (to Mike only)] grins, then ask away for that! it might work
[Abbot Corynth (Mike) (to Master only)] suggests as much to jennevive
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So then after she is arrested, we simply need to send word that we handled this appropriately and there is no threat and so forth.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Just be direct and honest and not go around killing people we don't like.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That should take care of everything.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ilero can sneak around and try to find this assassin if she will not speak of it willingly.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can send word to the Queen that the murderer has been apprehended.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] She can find a permanent replacement for me and I shall be free again once more!
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] we can send that message out in the next bundle
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] that gives us a month to determine which name to give the Queen
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Abbot Corynth or?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But we cannot just kill her or set her free. We must do this the correct way to show both the Kayugans and the Greeks that Drillian does not behave this way. That we do not want war or conflict.
Aunt Jennevive (Master) pauses and looks at Branwyn
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (inner paladin coming out - I am not lawful alignment)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] If we are to provide justice from a Drillian perspective then we can only lock these two up in the basement
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] if we hand them over to the Celstry then they will fall under their judgments
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I only wished a priest be useful and cast a proper spell to get at the truth,
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not to turn her over to the Inquisitor or anything.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I can attempt that again in the morning
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] or we can bring in someone if you wish
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I was thinking more along the lines of the Prince's Royal Guard until we get more information and can send word to Drillian.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] a political prisoner
[Branwyn (Lisa)] There are City jails that can hold priests aren't there?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Balak Prison
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So we'll put them in the basement tonight and Philippe can you send word to the the Royal Guard or Lord Hightower. Whoever we need to in order to handle this?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This cou;dn't have happened at a worse time. I have back to back appointments tomorrow.
Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) coughs
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Yes
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] if you would please?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Can I get out of this markplace queen event?
Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) hand on the door
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (marketplace)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh, yes. Sorry.
Branwyn (Lisa) waves her hamd
Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) nods, thank you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn casts a spell against : Knock: All locks in a (10*11) 110 square foot area are unlocked.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] /blinks
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] perhaps you could cast that on the room downstairs?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] M;Lady, if you are done wigth me I would like to gather my reward and be on my way.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] to keep them in for the day?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not tonight I can't. We shall have to lock and barricade things the non-magical way.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Very Well
[Branwyn (Lisa)] in the morning though I may lock it.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What reward?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Who told you there was a reward?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] Reward for solving this murder
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i risked my life to aprhrehend this couple. it is worth something, right?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] lol
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] i should get at least a choice of the past ambassador's articles she left behind
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] like a souvenir
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes, that it is. Come back in the morning and we shall show our appreciation.
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] everything she had perished in a fire didn't it? givbe her some ash
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] *him
Branwyn (Lisa) looks shocked
[Branwyn (Lisa)] that is rather morbid is it not?
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] lolol
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] it was ooc but to be honest i'm a dead man walking anyway what do I care? haha
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] then i shall return tomorrow for a sizable reward. Thank you Marquessa, good night
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] HAHAHAHA
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] ooc don't worry. You can have hugh "persuade" him to give back anything you need
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we can make a donation to the church in his name - priests like that, right?)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] i like it!
[Patron Withorn (Mario Teq LT)] (brb Coal)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] so. now that we have done that. what else is on the agenda?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so that was finished quickly for a complicated murder so sending us back to drillian soon?)
[Master] LOL I think that it is a pretty big revelation
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] it only took a year
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] i'm not kidding
[Master] you have the proof that someone paid an assassin to take out Waverlyn
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] do we get XP?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (this is how branwyn thinks though - simple direct)
[Master] you have a month before the letter goes to the Queen to tell her to get better details
[Master] you only have a couple of details like.... Branwyn is wanted by a demon
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she doesn't scheme politically for advantage)
[Master] three quarter of the group are slaves to Bugbeears
[Master] small things to work out
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she doesn't know that)
[Master] very true
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] hey i'm trying to escape... i just haven' tbeen able to play my character
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] lets be fair
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and can demons follow her to the Mist)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (will she be safe there?)
[Master] at this point you do not know
[Master] you can make guesses
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but she can guess)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (nothing makes it through the mist)
[Master] right
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but will she ditch new prince boyfriend to go home?)
[Master] at this point we do not know
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (branwyn will have to think about it)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Hopefully you can take home your new peeps as well?
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Like Hugh would be nice
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] so I don't have to start over
[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] :)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not sure what Bob has planned - Branwyn thinks this will all be over soon(
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (branwyn was told when she got this gig to find out who murdered Waverlyn and then she could be replaced)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (this was supposed to be a temporary assignment)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] \hm okay
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I'm fine with that
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] I would like to see other places
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (BUT Abbott is threatening more Hades hell)
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Not your problem
[Friend Junyorth (mharmon9)] Although if we go back. I will laugh if we get "pressed" into naval forces since we all assuming that I would impress people into it.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we have not talked to Kayugans about crusade since Branwyn shut down Father Mortin)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (So just because Branwyn is thinking this is all over, Lisa doesn't know anything)
[Master] I think that everyone is out of ideas for the night?
[Master] you have two people locked up downstairs
[Master] and in the morning will be the 1st
[Master] No Spring again next week
[Master] but TMO and Mario and Mike and Michael will be here
