[Master] Hey there Mike

[Mike] hey

[Master] HoloLens is incredible

[Mike] is it? i'll have to get down there and check out your new stuff

[Master] Have it at home for the weekend

[Master] just trying it out this afternoon for the first time

[Master] and it is really really nice

[Master] the Rift is at the library

[Master] soon a Rift and a Vive and a HoloLens

[Master] cannot wait to get our new space open

[Mike] you still doing that green party room?

[Master] will have a 12 by 12 corner wall set up as a green screen

[Master] in one corner of the room and another 12 by 12 corner of the room for another VR set up

[mharm-89740] Hello

[Master] Hey Michael

[mharm-89740] What's going on?

[mharm-89740] BRB, door

[Master] I am busy drooling over my new HoloLens

[Master] will try not to talk about it all night

[Mike] you going to have the cameras with monitors set up to watch them?

Lisa has received the map New Residence second floor.

[Lisa] Hello :)

[mharm-89740] Hello

[Master] yes to Mike we do that already with the Rift

[mharm-89740] So what can you tell me about your holo lens

[mharm-89740] don't know too much about that one

[Master] Augmented reality

[mharm-89740] Work with glasses?

[Master] it over lays on top of the room around you

[Master] yeap

[mharm-89740] What uses?

[Master] just great fun stuff

[Master] right away

[mharm-89740] Planner? Calendar? Games? ???

[Master] right now testing but anything you can run in a Win 10 machine you can run in this

[Master] with full walk around holograms

[mharm-89740] Look real? Or is it really obvious animation?

[Master] really really high quality

[Master] for some but not all

[mharm-89740] Can you buy the prototype now?

[Master] you have to get through the Microsoft approval process

[Master] three steps

[Master] then you get to pay them 3,000 dollars

[Lisa] are you going to be trapped in some virtual world never to be heard from again in the real one?

[mharm-89740] Im guessing educational or developer is a requirement?

[Master] yes

[mharm-89740] Sorry bob, I'll wait ten years for those. 3000 is a bit much right now haha

[Master] that is why I am doing it at the library

[mharm-89740] understandable

[mharm-89740] Cant wait to see how the technology pans out

[Master] best guess is there are about 500 of these in exisitence in teh world

[mharm-89740] Eh, there's gotta be more then that don't you think? Between, retailers, education institutioins and universities, and researchers?

[Lisa] afk

[mharm-89740] Also apologies for my poor grammer today. I'm tired

[Master] spoke with a developer at the boot camp they held last month

[mharm-89740] Monsoon season is officially here

[mharm-89740] Ah

[Master] they only had 12 in total for over 50 developers

[Master] at Microsoft headquarters

[mharm-89740] So probably all in the US?

[mharm-89740] that makes better sense

[mharm-89740] I wonder why it is so small right now

[mharm-89740] You would think this would be a huge development right?

[Master] it will be

[Master] but they want to go slow and do it right

[Master] they do not want people just buying them and thinking this is anywhere near a finished prodcut

[Master] product

[Master] waiting for an ETA from Mario to get things movingin

[mharm-89740] I see. It helps to keep the hype down and prevent premature judgement

[mharm-89740] speak of the devil

[Mario Teq LT] hello hello!!

[Master] Hey there

[Master] so did everyone see TMO's post?

[mharm-89740] I have not. I've been working nonstop this week. I'll take a quick look

[Lisa] b

[Lisa] just now

[Lisa] so sorry I have not posted

[Master] here it is

[Master] Shurkural and Marisu find Branwyn during one of her rare moments when she's not having to rush around after some emergency or other. Marisu seems oddly nervous, but Shur is gung-ho, although she looks pale and peaked. "Sorry I been out of it. I picked up a bug or something in the snow, I guess. It's got me all worn out. Anyways, do we know when or if we're going back for all the stuff that got left behind? I wouldn't mind going back with you and Indigo and the rest and teach them bugbears a little fear," she says. Marisu nods faintly. "Yes, if I need to go back to .. to help out, I will."

[Lisa] two major emergencies at work and I have only finished onee

[Lisa] no vacation for me until I finish my reports

[Master] that sucks

[Lisa] big time

[Master] happy birthday to you

[Master] bzzzzz

[Master] now back to work

[Lisa] really hope to be done before actual

[Lisa] but still disrupts the whole week of celebrations

[Lisa] the parade will have to be postponed

[Lisa] sighs

[Mario Teq LT] im loading, or trying to load, Klooge on the tiny pc in the kitchen, fo rwhen the laptop dies

[Mario Teq LT] Can you send me the ip address so i can log on from that pc?

[Master] so everyone is caught up to speed? remember where you are?

[mharm-89740] I finally got back so that's cool

[Master] will do Mario

[Mario Teq LT] i remember that Jen was speaking for aperson by the prisoners, and we were deciding how to get the missing items

[Master] yes to Mario and go

[Master] ready for that conversation

[Master] what does Sere, Ella, Hugh and Anton think about how to go about getting things

[Master] and about the people in the basement

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and jilly)

[mharm-89740] Well, to be quite honest, just to get back to the damn wagon, we will probably have another near death experience where bran has to come rescue us. soooo. I vote for never leaving the damn house again

[mharm-89740] that being said, we need to go rescue the spells, so I volunteer

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (branwyn should have gotten rid of them if Lisa hadn't had to work like crazy)

[mharm-89740] I am back at the keyboard.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I volunteer as tribute to go rescue the spells and the sword. I need someone who knows how to track and avoid shit

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] And someone to heal me while I soak up your damage

[Mike] i'd say we need to go as a full group with bran and indigo since less just got screwed

Kitchen-09991 is receiving the map New Residence second floor...

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Fine with me

Kitchen-09991 has received the map New Residence second floor.

[Lisa] Waiting for Indigo to retuen means leaving the scrolls buried in snow or dirt for weeks

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] We cant wait that long

[Lisa] Branwyn shouldn't be going anywhere other than to ambassador events

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay, so who do we have to work with bob? OOC What in characters can we expect for a rescue of equipment

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Bran cant

Mario Teq LT has left the game on Fri Jul 01 19:29:06 EDT 2016

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] and Indigo isn't here

[Lisa] without her though you are missing a strong spellcaster so I would recommend taking Jennevive

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I only have one character unfortunately

[Lisa] whether you like it or not! :P

[Master] everyone is here with you now

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] She kicks ass, I'll take her

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Anyone else want to go on the equipment rescue?

[Master] she does not heal

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] No, but I can hide behind her

[Lisa] no but she stops things

[Master] she has no weapons

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] She has more weapons that I do.

[Mario Teq Kit] Anton will go

[Master] well Branwyn has better than she does

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Her magic is scary

[Master] there is that

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Bran just said she cant go

[Master] I agree

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] So, me, anton, Jennevieve, anyone else?

[Mario Teq Kit] Zi would like to change his primary weapon to long sword,, instead of pick

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Can we hire a healer merc or something?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Ironic considering we are mercs I know.

[Lisa] so everyone wants new weapons training? :)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Yes

[Lisa] lol

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Something decent

[Master] remember it takes weeks to train

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'll do that as soon as I have time

[Master] so that will take place after this

[Master] not quite sure what to call this

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Right now a priority is rescuing valuable equimpent

[Master] Barber for Hire, the return?

[Mike] wait, now the plan is to go with less pepole that before?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Revenge of the Equipment

[Master] the Return of the Barber ?

[Master] yes to Mike

[Lisa] After Shave

[Master] but

[Mario Teq Kit] lol

[Master] LOL nice Lisa

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Lol

[Mike] i mean, i'd like to send sere to help, but i have this weird aversion to sending characters off on suicide missions

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Took me a second

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I know right?

[Master] remember also you have two seperate thigns

[Master] go get to the spell scrolls

[Lisa] that is what I was going to mention

[Master] part two is save the sword

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] and the sword

[Lisa] do you separate them out

[Master] and lisa can go

[Lisa] grab the somewhat safe scrolls and get home

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Before someone else does

[Master] and Mike please make suggestions

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Can we take anyone else with us? I hate going on bobs adventures without an abrams tank or something to hide in

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Armored wagon?

[Lisa] I think it's really a matter of how you want to roleplay this time in dryads lair

[Mike] okay, no offence, but so far what i've seen this group is fairly combat light

[Lisa] if you leave the stuff for when tmo gets back then your characters will be having salon meetings and dinner parties

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] You think I don't see that? I don't have a choice here. This is valuable equipment and there is no one else to go too

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I suck at fighting

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] hell really anything in this game

[Lisa] Branwyn will need you to sneakily run around the city and try to find out who Sam's parents are

[Mike] we really need some bigger guns if we're going to survive going back in those woods

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Suggestions?

[Mario Teq Kit] so, is there an issue if we wait for TMO's return? We have plenty to do in town, no?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Hire a small convoy?

[Lisa] Bob usuallu gives us combatants fit to our level

[Mike] wait for our main tank to get back for one

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay, then i'm for that

[Lisa] maybe he overdid it with you and next time you will fight a few frogs

[Master] you have enough to do in town and it takes enough time to roleplay it out that you will only move forward one day maybe two

[Master] before TMO returns

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay then

[Mike] well since i wasn't here for the initial attack i can't speak to that point, but his random encounters seemed to wipe the floor with everyone out there

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] So what needs done around town?

[Mario Teq Kit] lol, rabid, vampire, shapeshifting frogs?

[Lisa] ilero is the tank?

[Lisa] He will be happy to hear that :)

[Master] one issue Mike is that eveyrone lost their weapons

[Mike] indigo

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] And my weapons suck

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] lol

[Master] Indigo is weeks out

[Master] I think he is currently about 500 miles away? and still going farther

[Mike] also, as far as the scrolls go, is the risk really worth it? those can be replaced

[Lisa] if you want a sword convince Branadarus to go with you

[Master] not sure they can be

[Lisa] just don't get him killed

[Mike] well, don't take this the wrong way, but that's what happens when the main tank is sent away. combat oriented missions need to go on hold

[Lisa] if they were your characters would you just say forget about it?

[Lisa] LOL

[Lisa] really?

[Mike] every adventuring party needs a healer and meat shield. sere is a healer, but indigo is the only tank i know that we have.

[Lisa] Bob - you shouldn't have set up that story arc then

[Master] LOL

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay. I'm for what you guys are up for

[Mike] the scrolls are just her version of a mage's spellbook, right?

[Master] yes

[Lisa] sere has many more HP than Indigo

[Master] but she has spells no one else does

[Mike] okay, what about through the mage's guild?

[Lisa] why do you think I kept telling everyone to stand behind your character?

[Master] that are only in those scrolls

[Lisa] If I had your hp I would run into burning buildings

[Lisa] arm wrestle dragons

[Lisa] open red scrolls with my bare hands

[Master] walk out of burning building as the mother of dragons

[Lisa] :)

[Lisa] that would be nice too

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] LOLOLOLOL

[Mike] yeah, why is a mid level priest the highest hp in the group?

[Lisa] no clue

[Mike] did you all take con as your dump stat?

[Master] good luck

[Master] on Sere's part

[Mike] i mean, bob didn't even let me trick her out with fighter's con bonus or anything

[Lisa] I think I took charisma

[Lisa] as dump stat I mean

[Mike] as is right and good

[Mike] okay, here's the deal. we all make new level 3 henchmen properly from the ground up min maxed for combat and level them up until they can go get the stuff.

[Master] you could get a new henchman if you wanted

[Master] Anton and Hugh in particular

[Lisa] So everyone stays safe all the time?

[Lisa] I had fun in the woods

[Master] but I agree with Lisa that there is no way to stay safe

[Master] so you do your balancing and then face the danger

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'm allowed a henchman?

[Master] brb grabbing drinks

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] what trickery is this?

[Mike] no, but we've got to find a way to beef up basic combat skills.

[Mike] hugh's got a spare proficiency slot, right? train up in a bigger weapon

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] When bob lets me train, I'll get my weapons skills up to par

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] yes

[Mike] get some heavy armor

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] that's my idea to

[Mike] and a shield

[Mike] that'll make him immediately better

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I might go for a twohanded weapon

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I need to think about it

[Lisa] then no shield

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] do you suggest a one handed with shield?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Which would be better for our scenarios?

[Mike] who else is a traditional combat class? i don't actually know your characters' classes

[Lisa] anton is fighter

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Warrior

[Mike] who's anton?

[Lisa] Mario

[Mike] okay, but he's got no hp. is there a problem there? i see he's level 5, how come? is that the new pc startign level?

[Mike] were all the levels of hp rolled and con bonus applied?

[Lisa] ask Bob I have no clue

[Mike] i know some of our characters weren't finished off because we hadn't fought anything in months

[Mike] like sere needs all kinds of stuff set up for real combat. speaking of which, bob would you bring up fin for me?

[Mike] i want my range rings

[Lisa] usually michael if you are new he gives you a while to get acclimated before henchmen that is most likely why not before now

[Mike] otherwise i'm shooting at everything as if it's point blank

[Master] back

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Well, I think i need to re-evaluate my equimpent and fighting style

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] So until our fighter gets back

[Master] I can see about FIN, if I can find him

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Bob, can I have the day to look for training

[Master] and yes to Michael now you can have a henchman you have been around long enough

[Master] same for Mario

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'll think about it

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Right now, I want to optimize my own character so he's not useless

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] if that's alright

[Master] Hugh can look for training but remember it takes 19 minus the wisdom of the trainer in weeks to train

[Mike] well if it makes you feel better most first characters suck

[Master] so average Wis is 12

[Master] so 7 weeks

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Bran, any suggestions?

[Lisa] okay if you all want to play house and train I can have branwyn, Jennevive and Branadarus go get the scrolls and deal with the swords later

[Mike] you can awlays kill him and restart. lol. that's what i had to do.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Are you serious?

[Mike] i thought you said bran won't leave the city?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] What are the penallties

[Mike] sure. you restart at half your current xp

[Lisa] like I didn't leave Imari's hippogriff, I am not going to ditch some other character's prized stuff

[Lisa] well she wouldn't if people who could go would go

[Lisa] but if no one is going then she will

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Would bob be mad if I restarted?

[Mike] well we are working out how to do that without the same thing happening again

[Mike] if you really hate your character, i'd say no. he offered you the chance before i remember.

[Master] Finglass moved 3'07".

[Master] there is Finglass,

[Lisa] no no no

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] And lisa, i'm not trying to ditch anything. I volunteered, but I need something to back me up. I'm almost useless

[Master] put an icon of the Cake for him

[Lisa] no

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] OH

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I had an idea

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Lightbulb

[Mike] hell, as far as the scrolls go, cant they be scried, and poofed back?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay, so this is how we are going to do this

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I am going to go alone to get the scrolls

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] If I die, I get to restart

[Master] no, you found out that Crystal Balls work on people not places or things

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] If I don't, then I get the scrolls

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] win win

[Mike] what about other scrying methods?

[Master] so far no one has tried any

[Lisa] we would have to pay someone to do it

[Lisa] look - drillian is in desperate need of ships because we are at war

[Lisa] branwyn said she would find Sam's parents

[Lisa] or you can go on an adventure

[Lisa] if you choose to stay home branwyn will need you working on those two things

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I would like to help however I can

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Just let me know

[Mike] I am back at the keyboard.

[Mike] that's weird, i don't see the rings on the expressions. guess they got erased somewhere and i have no idea how to recreate them

[Master] the Rings are effects

[Master] I thought you wanted the trick shots in the equipment

[Master] you can export and import those

[Mike] i was thinking of those rings he's got around him.

[Mike] but i'll do that, too ig uess

[Mike] as i recall i could turn them on and off for different ranges and that set up the correct temp modifiers for to hit at the different ranges

[Master] turning them on and off is easy

[Master] you have to type in the various modifiers into Temp Modifiers each time

[Master] OR have those modifiers set up into equipment as "long bow, long range" "Long bow, Medium range" etc.

[Mike] i see where they are

[Mike] though i don't see how to just import them over. they're in a list under temp modifiers

[Master] but I am taking all of this to say tonight we work on characters and at the same time staying around the residence today an dtoday

[Master] temp modifiers you have to go recreate

[Master] those are not exportable

[Mike] okay. i can do my sheet work as we go

[Master] so we are starting in the mid mornign on the 7th

[Mike] but mario and michael need to decide what to do with their characters

[Master] everyone is back in the Residence

[Mike] at the very least buy some armor

[Lisa] is mike making a new charcater?

[Master] Mike is updating Sere

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Thinking about it

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] oh that mike

[Master] is Michael or Mario going to create a henchman

[Lisa] how do you update your character?

[Master] and what type etc.

Mike has edited Seremella Psyndarryn's effects.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Not yet

[Master] Mike is putting in more combat details

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] for henchman

[Master] to show rings for how far out she can hit a target etc.

Mike has edited Finglass's effects.

[Master] Mario are you around?

[Master] OK

[Master] well

[Lisa] mario?

[Lisa] ouch

[Master] chuckles

[Mario Teq Kit] rofl, if you believe that... lol

[Master] so

[Master] the room is set up

[Master] Time of Day: 10:52 AM. Day 7 Mid ___ de, Man {Early Spring} 7th, 1266 TGR.

Mike has edited Seremella Psyndarryn's effects.

[Master] Mario are you thinking about taking on a henchman?

Mike has edited Seremella Psyndarryn's effects.

[Mario Teq Kit] if it would help the gourp, sure. i wouldnt mind

[Master] and who has ideas about how to tackle the problem of Sam

Mike has edited Finglass's effects.

[Mario Teq Kit] what about a war hound?

[Master] you could do both of those Mario

[Mario Teq Kit] only have ot worry about it when we adventure

[Master] one idea for the henchman is you could have someone on each group when you split up again

[Mario Teq Kit] i would imagine a farm boy would be lost w/o his dog

Mike has edited Seremella Psyndarryn's effects.

[Mario Teq Kit] ah, i see

[Mario Teq Kit] how is that different than having two characters?

[Mario Teq Kit] what are the limitation of a henchman?

[Master] one is your main characters Anton, which earns at two shares

[Master] and a henchmand earns at one share

[Mario Teq Kit] k

[Master] so if there are two PCs and 1 henchman on an adventure

[Master] 100 XP awarded to the group

[Lisa] 40 40 20

[Master] 400 to a pc 400 to a pc and 200 to a henchman

[Master] Lisa is better at math

[Mario Teq Kit] sure

[Master] so two key things to tackle tonight in Roleplay

[Master] what to do about Sam's thing

[Master] and who wants to go out to the woods to recover the scrolls

[Lisa] and the boats

[Master] and then the other part of the sword, how in the world are you going to search for it

[Master] and then boats

[Master] and scrolls

[Master] and and and

[Lisa] we need to talk to someone or at least send messages about boats

[Lisa] branwyn can start boats

[Master] does everyone else understand about the boats?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I don't, but i'll catch up

[Mike] nope

[Lisa] when we got sent here the queen asked us to improve the drillian navy

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] ok

[Mario Teq Kit] refresh, pls: Drillian needs hips, and Dryad's has all empty boats. We considered putting prisoners on boats for Dryad's, right?

[Lisa] that wasn't a high priority in branwyn or indigo's minds

[Mike (to GM only)] Character sheet for Finglass modified:

[Lisa] cuz who needs boats in a hurry?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] aprrently them

[Lisa] well now there is an uprising in Drillian

[Mario Teq Kit] i still say we each commandeer a Dryad ship and sail it to Drillian

[Lisa] Queen is defending her crown against rebels and she sent a message to branwyn

[Lisa] where are the boats?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] what boats?

[Lisa] so we need to get ships rather than boats to Drillian asap

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] lol

[Mario Teq Kit] we can return them when we're done, with a sincere apology

[Lisa] I have some ideas which is one of reasons why I wanted to stay home

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740) (to Master only)] bob, i'm going to stop playing for awhile. Not upset or anything but i'm really tired and it seems like we're going in circles. would you message me when you need me?

[Master (to mharm-89740 only)] we are starting now, needing to get who is on which missions

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740) (to Master only)] okay

[Master] OK so with everyone there in the solon

[Master] Branwyn's plan for the boats?

[Master] and or

[Lisa] ic?

[Master] yes

[Lisa] ooc?

[Lisa] ok

[Mario Teq Kit] brb, coal

[Master] plus the IC for Sam's things to get Hugh and Anton onto those steps

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Philippe, can you send an invitation to Admiral Olana to come to dinner as soon as he is able please?

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] of course

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] OOC Your mad at him remember and he istn' too happy with you either

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will also need to send messages to a few prominent families in Rivers Bend. I will review some materials and give you their names.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] OOC We didn't part on the best terms

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I would guess if he is in the city then it will not be a problem

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The messages will have to be sent speedily.

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I will dip into our funds

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740) (to Master only)] Olana isn' thappy with her. She claimed he was doing slavery for the ships. I don't know what your planning, but if I was still playing Olana, I would decline

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) (to mharm-89740 only)] nods lots of tangles

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you. I am sure that the Queen will not mind as it is to procure the ships for her defense.

[Master] how do you want to broach the Sam topic and with who in the room?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (think we have discussed with apprentices before)

[Master] ok

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I know, Anton, that you and Ilero discussed looking into the parentage issue with the Ronwith name. I do need to know if you are able to pursue leads in the matter.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have left this for a long time already and every time I see Lord Hightower I fear that he will ask me about our progress.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Anyone who wishes to take on this task is most welcome but it is one that must be pursued

[Master] hints to Hugh Sere and Elle

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I volunteer

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] /all what am i doing?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The hardest part about it is that we have been asked to use the most discretion

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I can be discrete

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We cannot simply put an ad on the kiosk in the market

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Very good

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Discretion is not one of my strong suits

Branwyn (Lisa) smiles

[Master] Michael do you understnad why discrection is so important

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] No, but all that matters is that I am correct? I don't know what I'm doing

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you can ask)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Looking up parentage for someone is my guys

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] guess

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] okay

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Who am I finding the parentage for?

[Master] Sam's adopted father is the Prince of Dryads Lair and potentiall in line for the Throne of the Kingdom of Terraguad

[Master] and the King has no children

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::coughs lightly:: "Mistress Ambassador, I would be happy to help you on this task if you wish. Can I use your name to gain entrence to the royal library for further name research?"

[Master] and the Prince of Dryads Lair does not want to inherit

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Lord Sam Hightower is the Prince of Dryads Lair adopted son.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] So sam would be next right

[Master] could be next

[Master] so could have a big target on him if he is shown to be competent and wants to be King

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay, what is the outcome you want me to do?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] He does or does not want to be king

[Master] no one knows

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Anyone ask him?

[Master] that is something to discuss amongst your selves

[Master] IC

[Master] and such

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Seremella, Lord Hightower has forbidden us to ask at the Royal Library.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] He said - I cannot ask the Librarian, he would undoubtedly mention it to my father and I do not want to cause him any concerns, or have him think I am ungrateful

[Branwyn (Lisa)] He won't let me discuss the matter with Prince Loplin which I find frustrating. That seems the most direct solution.

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::nods:: "Of course."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But he said nothing about the celestry. I am not sure if such a request could be made there in a roundabout way without drawing attention.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The priests must have a mountain of records.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And we do live in a historic home where you could have stumbled across a name or some such thing.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Or ... could the Ronwith family have been Greek?

Branwyn (Lisa) shakes her head

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Maybe

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "We will ask there. I am sure they can tell us if it is Greek seeing as how they hate them so."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't think you have been to the Celestry yet. It is quite impressive

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I am certain that they will be glad to tell you that the Prince's son in Dryads Lair is a secret Greek plant

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Just stay away from the BBQ gazebo or whatever that Withorn went on about. You might never return!

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (remember if it was an easy quick thing it would not be an adventure)

Branwyn (Lisa) turns to Jennevive "A plant?"

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Here in the heart of the Kayugan lands,

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] what better place to put a mole

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] for the Greek church

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Are you trying to say that the Greeks planned this from his birth and tossed aside a son for information gathering purposes?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Lord Sam is too kind hearted to be any spy. Really.

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Ellenara was saying she thought the Celestry would be happy to tell if he is a Greek and I am agreeing with her

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And he would have had to have been told at some point.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I only said that his parents might have been Greek since the capital in Terraguard is Greek.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Prince Loplin's family

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] yes exactly

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I believe Terrabrink is also Greek

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Isn't it, Tiberius?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] which is why I applaud young Prince Sam's discretion

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't think it would be possible.

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] Of course Terrabrink is a Greek stronghold

Branwyn (Lisa) nods

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] We are happy to let bygones be bygones

[Branwyn (Lisa)] A wise decision

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All I was meant was that religious groups like to keep records as a rule.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If Ronwith was a longstanding noble house in Dryads Lair I think people would be aware of it.

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified:

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] nods, that does make good sense

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You could just read a book at the library if you wish to do so

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I do not intend to open that book at all

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so the basic attack info is broken

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] that's with no nothing. straight off the data list

[Mario Teq Kit] thats a serious hit, or miss

[Master] no you are rolling a d202 not a d20

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well, like i said, that's straight off the data list, so YOU are having us rill a d202

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] but even so, how does a roll of 111 end up hitting -951?

[Mario Teq Kit] i bet Anton still couldnt hit...

[Master] the only things on Elle's sheet is sling and sling bullet

[Branwyn (Lisa)] he was rolling sere

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i'm no math major, but that should be a -95

[Branwyn (Lisa)] chatting as elle

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] that 1 on the outside? which is supposed to be the racial +1 bonus

[Master] Seremella Psyndarryn: Attack: Long Bow for Elves: ((16-(d20+0))1) [1d20=9] 71 [MODIFIED (1)]

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so why did i roll a d202? there's no spot on the sheet for what die to roll, so it's not like i have a typo there

[Master] Seremella Psyndarryn: Attack: Long Bow for Elves: ((16-(d202))1) [1d202=124] -1081 [MODIFIED (1)]

[Master] While I am investigating

[Master] Hugh, etc. need to talk about how you are goign to solve this for Sam

[Master] who are you going to talk to and what are you going to ask

[Master] Seremella Psyndarryn: Attack: Long Bow for Elves: ((16-(d20+0))+1) [1d20=15] 2 [MODIFIED (+1)]. HITS Homer (AC FINAL: 10)!!!

[Master] you were missing a plus sign

[Master] in the racial bonus

[Master] fixed now

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified:

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] now, the total attack just says $atk. and my missile attack modifier is 2. so why isn't that working right?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] $atk rather

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] $atk

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] wow. matk

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] weird that the m won't show up when i type it

[Master] and fixed, you had a zero i the skill field

[Master] put the +2 in

[Master] and any time you tpe the dollar sign in chat it things you are using a command like dollar sign AC

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "So then I suppose Hugh and I can go to the Celestry today and ask. Jennevive, are there any priests you suggest we ask for?"

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i did no have 0. i just looked. i had a 2.

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] who to ask to make an appointment?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (I put the 2 there )

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Who to ask for."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified:

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] It depends on who you want to ask

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] which God are you going to ask for help?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and who in their hierarchy?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] some of them can take weeks to get an audience with

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] for someoen like you

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Who is the god of meaningless bureaucracy?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "That is exactly what I was asking you for. Did you not understand that? I know common isn't my first language, but I thought I was clear."

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Cogse is the Goddess of information

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "So we should ask for a priest of Cogse?"

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] if you are going to ask for just any priest

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I know common is not your first language but maybe you did not listen to me

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] who do you want to ask?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] the head of the order?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] a first week acolyte?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] are you going to take an audience with who ever will see you?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Woever will see us would be helpful

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] what will you say your business is?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Who do you suggest?"

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "We will be looking into a missing family."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Trying to find long lost connections for a firend of the Ambassador's in Drillian."

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I do not know the priests of Cogse that well here

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] that would be a good start,

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] smiles at Elle

Branwyn (Lisa) whispers to Lord Branadarus "Don't priests have libraries like mages? Can't they just go where the books are?"

Lord Branadarus (Master) shrugs,

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] whispers, I don't know I do not read

Branwyn (Lisa) mouth drops open

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But ... you must ...

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I will travel to the Celestry and ask who you should be seeking an audience with

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I should have an answer tonight at dinner

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] must what?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Read. How do you deal with your correspondence?

Lord Branadarus (Master) laughs lightly

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] Oh that, yes

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I can read,

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] but really why?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] other than a few maps

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] and keeping track of treasure

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] not much use for it

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Because it is wonderful

Lord Branadarus (Master) smiles

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All the information in all the world that matters is written somewhere.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Whether it is painted on a wall or etched on a scroll.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is knowledge.

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "I had hoped to enquire today, but very well. Mistress Ambassador, what if we went to the Grand Library and just asked to see family records for your friend back home? Would that be suspicious?"

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I could take you to the Celestry Library while I am visiting the church

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I think that asking questions always raises suspicisions

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If you think you can make it work then go ahead. It is just hard to know what that name will mean to the people you speak it to.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You could scream it at the theatre and get no reaction but say it to the wrong person and walls can come tumbling down.

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] We only have the name Ronwith?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] if we pair it with something?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is not an easy task by any means with the consrictions Lord Sam has laid upon us

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Get me the heaviest armor they have

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] heavy armor and a big freaking sword

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] probably scale since plate needs to be custom fitted

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (do you want to be the tin man?)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] IF the mountain wears it, then so shall I

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (don't think you can climb trees in plate)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] he shouldn't be climbing trees

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (definitely can't fall out of boats)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Lol

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] he should be swatting shit out of the way while laughing

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] So, should I go get that fitted then?

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] rofl, nice

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] sure you can. it's even easier to fall out of a boat in plate

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Then go catch up to you?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (he also can't walk around the city like that)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Why not?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "That might be a good idea. You need to make sure you have the proper gear or you will get hurt again."

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Ambassadors guards?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Okay

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] because this city is apparenlty run by wyatt earp

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (the guards at the house don't wear plate)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Then to get fitted for plate

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Does that mean I cannot?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] plate will take oodles of time to make as well. so discuss ic about the time and cost of that

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you can wear it anywhere you want but be prepared for some people to look at you funny is all)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'm for it if you guys are okay with it. Otherwise, it's scale mail

Branwyn (Lisa) shrugs

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] we're talking a couple hundred vs. up to 10k gold

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Ig

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You have to live with it

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Oh

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] then scale mail it is

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no - not 10K for armor)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] that's a big difference

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (come on)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] there's a reason plate is a knight's prized possession

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] If the price is reasonable, I'll go with plate

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] otherwise sclae

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] you gotta hope to find a magic set because magic armor always fits. because it's magic

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] bangin my head on my desk.........

[Atribella Olivin (Master)] have to go on adventures to find magic items,

[Atribella Olivin (Master)] have to take risks

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] And die

[Atribella Olivin (Master)] well that is why I am here in the city

Mike has edited Seremella Psyndarryn's effects.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'm for plate

[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I prefer to not take those sorts of risks

[Atribella Olivin (Master)] You Sir Hugh

[Atribella Olivin (Master)] you are brave and strong

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] LOL

[Atribella Olivin (Master)] you could take risks

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] OOC That was a good one

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] or you stay in the city and get other, successful adventurer's good and drunk then mug them

Branwyn (Lisa) whispers to Branadarus "And I like to be able to walk into a tavern and be able to sit down and get a drink!"

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] because i don't think we can call ourselves successful right now. we did the opposite of finding treasure.

Branwyn (Lisa) whispers "Can you sit in plate mail?"

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Dear lord guys. Scale mail it is

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] whispers not easily

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] lets just do this

Branwyn (Lisa) giggles

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] whispers if you help adjust me though

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740) rolls eyes

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Also need to pick up a different weapon when I have time

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (michael - get what you want to get. I am teasing. Just know that choices mean pluses as well as drawbacks)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] What do you recommend lisa? That is what I will get. I can go with either, but I have not played this game as much

[Master] Grins, Lisa is an expert at AD&D

[Master] who would have thought that back when grins

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (don't ask me - my characters like risks - indigo has leather for boats and chain for land)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (the leather gives him a +3 and the chain a +5)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Scale mail it is

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (what is plate? I don't even know)

[Master] 8 or 9

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I don't want to drown

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Oh, I don't know how to swim

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Plate mail it is

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you need leather for sea faring)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] becasue it doesn't matter

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] Bobby, can you describe "Improved Mail?"

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified: Weapons - DELETED: Arrow; Flight, false, Arrow; Flight, , , 0, , --, --, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0, $atk, 0, +0, +0, +0, +0, $dmg, 1d6, 1d6+1, 1d6+1, , , , . CHANGED: Long Bow -- Damage v SM: (1d1-1), CHANGED: Long Bow -- Damage v L: (1d1-1), CHANGED: Long Bow -- Knockdown (KNCK) : (1d1-1),

[Master] no clue what that is

[Master] off the top of my head

[Master] Scale Mail will take 8 weeks

[Master] Full plate takes 18 weeks

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] sorry! im looking at he web page for armor. Itc AC +6, one better than chain mail

[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.NWP-Armorer

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] splint gets you to ac4

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] splint and shield ac3

[Master] and now I gotcha Mario

[Master] will check the reference on that

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] actually, regular plate is cheapish

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i was looking at full plate

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] full plate is custom made. regular plate is ac3 600gp

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] Anton would do god with that and a shield +7 total. Make him more than a practice dummy for ants

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] then with a shield you're at ac2

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] good, not God. yikes

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so if we have the cash, i'd get plate mail for all fighter types and shields if they use one handed weapons

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] that gives them a decent ac

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'm for that. BRB Dinner

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] plus any dex bonus

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Atribella has haggling prof)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] then the question that remains is just hugh's weapon choice

[Master] Improved Mail is not available in this part of the world

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] if you want some versitility you can get a bastard sword and use it one or two handed

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Can i do some reseearch this week bob and choose my weapon for next?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Or that

[Master] yes to Michael

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] thanks

[Master] also to armor not making any one decide this moment

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I want to see what can maximize my effectivenetss

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Armor i'm fine with

[Master] but what I do want is the "who is goign to the library" which looks like Elle, Branadarus, Jennivive

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (this is serious question - can you sleep in it? if not on your watch for instance)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] the difference between a one handed sword and a two handed sword is just the damage die. 1d8, 1d12 vs. 1d10, 3d6

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] no

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] can't sleep in armor

[Master] cannot wear armor when sleeping and putting it on take one round per AC of protection it gives

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] the bastard does long sword damage one handed, and 2d4, 2d8 two handed

[Master]

[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.NWP-Armorer

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so the night full of terrors remains)

[Master] this page has the times on it

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so not quite as powerful as a two handed sword, but has more versitility than a long sword

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] The night is dark and full of terrors

[Master] that I quoted earlier

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] What about an axe?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so pick your weapon to train in.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (were you saying something Bob?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)

[Master] grins

[Branwyn (Lisa)] sorry

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] not as good as a sword

[Master] just making sure that people understand Armor choices, Weapons not off the rack, will take time

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] only reason to go axe is you're a dwarf

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] and you really SHOULD be able to find any standard sword on the rack

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] long, bastard, two handed.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] yes

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::glares at bob::

[Master] yes to Mike

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] lol

[Master] short swords, daggers and cutlass also

[Lisa] so if you will all be waiting weeks to get the scrolls then branwyn will get the scrolls and you can deal with Shur's sword when you get back I suppose)

[Master] no reason to wait weeks to get the scrolls

[Master] can do two trips

[Master] one for scrolls and come back

[Lisa] will they venture out without tin cans? :)

[Master] then organize and research and figure otu where in the heck to go

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] they can go buy armor today, lisa

[Master] how do you find a sword in the woods

[Lisa] thought it had to be fitted?

[Lisa] made

[Master] yes

[Lisa] pounded out

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] depends on if they're getting full plate

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] regular plate is mail with some metal plates riveted on. should be off the rack

[Master] Plate Mail takes 14 weeks to make

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] field and full plate specifically says it must be fitted. plate does not.

[Lisa] ok I am so used to always having to wait for indigo's

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] they won't be able to find it in a big city like this?"

[Lisa] they don't have kid sizes off the rack

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'm fine with regular plate for now

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] it will keep me alive until I establish something else

[Lisa] I think you should get what you want

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Well, if we are in a hurry, then regular plate mail will do for now

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well anything above plate is prohibitively expensive

[Master] Michael the issue is: decide you want XXX type of armor and pay and likely wait some time, or B see what is at the armor's and fits and buy that

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Oh.

[Master] the armor in the party pack, is there?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Then let's see whats at the armors I guess and if it's not there

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] then we'll go from there

[Lisa] no matter what armor you have I guarantee that you will sometimes get hit

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I know

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] but it will help

[Master] but weapons that people know hwo to use right now would be the key thing I think

[Master] as you have lost all your other ones

[Master] Anton lost the magic pick

[Lisa] indigo's magic pick???

[Master] Shur lost her families sword

[Lisa] you better go get that back

[Master] Anton took that on this trip right?

[Lisa] I thought he got his own weapons and indigo lent him his for the hellhound fight

[Master] Mario?

[Master] I am remembering Indigo loaning it to Anton for his adventure

[Master] or Indigo would have taken it with him

[Lisa] grrrr

[Master] am I wrong? did Indigo take it with him?

[Master] Mario?

[Lisa] Unless specifically stated otherwise Indigo takes his weapons

[Lisa] the pick is on his back especially since he doesn't have the spyglass

[Lisa] I do know right after the ball when anton came to the house with nothing we had the scroll and the hellhounds

[Lisa] Indigo lent it to him for that but I need to search for weapon shopping after

[Lisa] I thought after atribella fitted anton out and he would not have needed indigo's pick

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] sorry here. Damn beer was warm again. another tift

[Lisa] Jan 1 16 chat log

[Lisa] Don't have any armor that would fit you but you can use this for now. Know how to handle a pick? Indigo (Lisa) tosses his magical pick over to Anton [Anton (Mario)] i've used a pick, yes, but not as mice as this one...wow! [Anton (Mario)] Thank you m'lord [Indigo (Lisa)] We should have Atribella take you shopping when she gets back.

[Lisa] so now the armor/weapons later search

[Master] The question at hand Mario is did Anton have the pick with him ?

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] i hate to say, but i think he did. i do remember getting a +1 on a few hits

[Master] that is my recollection also

[Master] so the search for weapons was just intensified

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740) (to Master only)] having trouble with weapon selection. I want good damage but am having a hard time understanding the warriors familiarity perk. Dagger is in the tight weapons group. does that mean that any blade in the tight weapon group I buy will have familiarity?

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] so now Anton has a new mission...

[Lisa] 1-8 chat log ooc

[Lisa] [Lisa] Mario, did you figure out what weapons you want? [Mario] big, scary, danderous ones [Mario] i know dagger, long sword, and pick [Mario] i liked the pick, but it being rwo handed, leaves no shield [Master] dagger and long sword will be easy to find

[Master (to mharm-89740 only)] yes if you pick up any weapon in the tight weapon group you will only have half the penalty for using a weapon you are not proficient in

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] so i fthe pick wasnt easy to find, Anton probably used the magical one

[Master] Michael you want to pick a weapon that will suit what you want to do in combat, damage and use wise, then you just have the negatives to use it until you train in it

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] iwhen i selected slots, Long Sword was one

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] so is there a penalty for using one?

[Master] no penalty if you have the long sword proficiency

[Master] if you do not then there is a non-proficient penalty

[Master] like there was for the using the clubs

[Master] during the fighting after your escape

[Lisa] when you get higher levels and skills the non prof thing won't matter much

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] understtod. i guess my question is: if I have a slot for a weapon, does that mean i am proficient in that weapon?

[Lisa] yes

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] woop!

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Wait really?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I forgot about that

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] then Anton would like a long sword

[Lisa] if you took longsword and pick you are prof

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] and a shield if it would add an AC bonus

[Lisa] all fighers I believe are prof with dagger

[Master] not automaticlly

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] What's a two handed weapon with good damage?

[Lisa] ok

[Master] Anton has Dagger, Long Swqord, Sling and Pick listed as proficient

[Master] plus wrestling

[Master] so yes Anton has something to explain to Branwyn about a missing item

[Master] that you hope is with Shur's sword

[Master] that you also lost

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] agreed.

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] wow, lots of pressure for the new guy!

[Master] and ACTION

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] yuo realize, in game time, Anton has been here less than two weeks? maybe less than a week!

[Master] Branadarus Elle and Jennivive are off to the library

[Master] Ellenara Psyndarryn moved 19'03".

[Master] Aunt Jennevive moved 3'05".

[Master] Lord Branadarus moved 19'06".

[Master] Homer moved 8'01".

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] he should fill his pockets hand haul a$ in the middle of the night

[Master] Jennivive is taking Homer with her

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] but the Liar Curse will prevail

[Lisa] (no you left on trip on the 24th last month and were at the house before that

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] ahh, ok

[Lisa] it is the 7th of the new month

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] cool, thanks!

[Lisa] so less than a month :)

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] and already causing more toruble than he's fixed, or worth

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] but he (had) great hair

[Master] 18-10-1266 TGR

[Master] is the first day that Anton talked with the group

[Lisa] that is also the kinda hard thing about the new character versus old

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] he'l earn his keep, promise!

[Lisa] Branwyn has been with Ilero and Shur and Marisu and Indigo for years of game time

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] and maybe actually hit something he swings at!

[Lisa] so when something needs to be done for them she feels it more as there is much history

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] totally understood

[Lisa] like it pissed john off that indigo wouldn't leave the hippogriff

[Lisa] but then I could just say hello and piss John off :)

[Master] Time of Day: 10:52 AM. Day 7 Mid ___ de, Kye {Late Winter} 7th, 1266 TGR.

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] when did you need to get him anyway?

[Master] Anton has been there 17 days, just one day shy of two weeks

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] as i recall at one point he flew back home by himself

[Branwyn (Lisa)] After Galduk was killed Artiark was in Domville with people that had not trained him.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Kenna had cast a spell to allow him to trust her enough to fly home with them on the airship.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hoffman wanted at first to go to the gnomes and Indigo said that he would stay with Artiark to make sure nothing happened to him while they were gone gnome hunting

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] Can Anton's new armor have a custom made pocket to carry Kenna?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (like a kangaroo?)

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] or on the back, or wherever. He seems fascinated by her diminutiveness

[Master] and I want to hear Anton make his case about the missing pick

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] every battle, he grabs her and runs!

[Master] before we get too far along

[Master] Hugh and Sere are there as well

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] M'lady, may i have a word?

[Master] to help with details of the fights

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Of course.

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] m'Lqady, I must be part of the recovery team, fo rthe weapons

[Master] Anton moved 16'07".

[Master] Hugh D'Ambray moved 34'06".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would hope so.

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] the pick i was using, it was the on ethat belonged to Indigo

Branwyn (Lisa) takes in a breath and bites her lip

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] i feel horrible, not only that i let down those in the group i was resposible for,

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] but even for those who werent in my protection

Anton (Mario Teq Kit) bows head in shame

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] i will do whatever it takes to garner its safe return to Indigo. This i swear

Branwyn (Lisa) takes a moment

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Better a pick than any of your lives. That is certain.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That pick ... has magical properties. It was the only magic weapon Indigo had.

Anton (Mario Teq Kit) head still bowed "maybe not mine."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] He shall be disappointed to hear of it when he returns.

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] Maybe Miss Jen is right, maybe i am not a benefit to this group

Branwyn (Lisa) shakes her head "Don't be silly"

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] Maybe i am meant to follow, not lead. Farm, noit fight

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are a great benefit and saved both Kenna and carried Lord Branadarus.

[Master] (Sere and Hugh are there also)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are a valuable addition to the household

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs "And it is not as if you were the only one that lost their weapon"

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] Maybe leaving the squirehood (?? !!) was not fate, maybe i was never meant to be a combatant

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] nevertheless I vow to retreive the pick , and all other weapons, as part of the new group

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You just need time and experience.

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] i thasnk you for your kind words, m'Lady, but i understand if you think I shoud go

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Look at Lord Branadarus. He nearly died .. what ... three times?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And he still gets up and fights on without fear.

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] yes m'Lady

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You live and you move on

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] what is this, a teenaged girl pitty party? let's gear up and move out if that's what we're doing

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] and as for finding the sword, wouldn't that be a job for the ranger who lost it in the first place?

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] (lol)

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs "Nice to hear Ellenara. I have a pile of red scrolls now that I'm back. Maybe you can help with that."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] that wasn't in character

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I suppose - and it's good to know the level of support that the players want the other PCs to have for their characters)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Hey guys, i'm osrry but I gotta call it a night.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Rought week

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I'm fine with a to each his own deal)

[Master] night Michael

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] I'll be on next week

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-89740)] Thanks all

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Goodnight Michael(

mharm-89740 has left the game on Fri Jul 01 22:38:15 EDT 2016

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] bye Michael

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] brb Coal

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] not to each his own. it's an issue of rangers have tracking

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so you know, track the bugbears

[Master] So far the choices seem to me to be that today (7-11) eveyrone is doing things around the residence and such

[Master] then tomororw (8-11) get the group together to head out to get the scrolls

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] unless you can somehow scry the bugbears, but since you never really met them, i'm guessing not

[Master] the bugbears that Branwyn met she killed

[Branwyn (Lisa)] who never met bugbears?

[Master] between Branwyn and Branadarus they killed just about two dozen

[Master] in the first battle alone

[Branwyn (Lisa)] ( seriously - between branadarus and branwyn we killed about two dozen and got the other dozen to yield or run away)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so we got our hands dirty and took out 2/3rd of them)

[Master] recovering the scrolls is straight forward and slightly dangerous

[Master] go into the woods near the edge and find them

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (should be no big deal)

[Master] finding the weapons will be totally different

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] right, so you never met the ones that i assume have the sword we want

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (take a boat to get to northam and then walk from there)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] or else they'd be dead adn we'd have the sword

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (they may have run away)

[Master] you have no idea where the village is that you were held captive in the ones that marched you off to be sold to slavery are dead

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I was a little busy at the time)

[Master] the weapons were taken from you back where the scrolls are buried

[Master] so no clue if they ever made it to the village or went some other place

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so we go there, and say track ranger, track

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] find the village, raze it to the ground and kill everything there as an example to the other bugbear villages not to mess with us, and go home

[Master] LOL

[Master] the first line on the Dryads Lair page is : Dryads Lair could have been the center of a great Bugbear Civilization,

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (tmo will only be one round behind and so taking the boat to notham and heading out from there will take a bit - tmo's chracters should be back in time for serious work if needed)

[Master] this is not finding the only bugbear village, this is figuring out WHICH bugbear village you were in , etc.

[Master] Hugh and Indigo have already been to a pirate town on the west side of the Blumm Wood

[Master] it is a big dangerous place

[Master] this is what all adventures are made of

[Master] the problem is finding out WHERE to go

[Master] then you have a raid

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] usually adventures aren't an issue of where to go. that's part of the usual adventure. go there and get this or kill that

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] this is one of the few cases i can think of it's a go ? kill bugbears and get sword.

[Master] finding the needle in the haystack

[Master] 22 miels by river to Northham or 40 miles by road

[Master] then another 24 miles north to the woods

[Master] then you know you left the waggon an hour or so into the woods

[Branwyn (Lisa)] jilly was the one that buried the scrolls after the rest were carted off as prisoners. Is that correct?

[Master] Sere, Jilly, Hugh, Anton, Shur, Marisu, Kenna were all there when the bugbears attacked

[Master] Jilly hid herself

[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes but who decided to bury the scrolls?

[Master] then hid the scrolls after the rest were taken away

[Branwyn (Lisa)] so only jilly knows where she buried them

[Master] correct

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Jilly needs to go

[Branwyn (Lisa)] or at least someone needs to talk to her

[Master] nods, she will go recover the scrolls

[Master] after all she is the person who is goign to save them

[Master] grins

[Branwyn (Lisa)] most likely

[Master] she is in charge of the rescue party

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so roleplay celestry?)

[Master] sure, you ready Mike?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] sure

Priestess (Master) smiles

[Priestess (Master)] Welcome to the library

[Priestess (Master)] What knowledge have you brought us today?

[Master] Ellenara Psyndarryn moved 6'03".

[Master] Lord Branadarus moved 18'08".

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::bows to the priestess with an elven motion of respect:: "I fear I bring little. I have come seeking knowledge."

[Priestess (Master)] what do you seek?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "I seek family records. Do you keep those here? Where I come from it is often the temples who track that."

[Priestess (Master)] It is possible

[Priestess (Master)] Uthe the mother often sends her children to help with families

[Priestess (Master)] if who you seek was helped by one of her priestesses then perhaps there would be a record

[Priestess (Master)] who are you in search of? and why?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (test)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (ok)

[Priestess (Master)] nods

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "A friend of a friend lost track of her family. The ."

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] (here)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] who was the family?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] rumsfords?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] roxfelds?

[Priestess (Master)] (chuckles, Mario? do you remember)

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] withorn?

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] ronwith?

[Priestess (Master)] (there you go)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] which one? i don't want ot have to scroll up

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well, that one

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] romwith

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] the correct one. i tell her that.

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] lol

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] look, i'm terrible with real people's names.

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] fantasy names? forget it

[Priestess (Master)] I do not recognize the ronwith family name, are they a family here in the City?

[Priestess (Master)] Perhaps which church do they attend?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "They are from the kingdom. But I'm not sure where. The person who wants to know moved to a different kingdom generations ago and her branch of the family lost track of the main branch."

[Priestess (Master)] One in Seaguard? or Northbrook? perhaps here on the Hill

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "So I know it is a long shot."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "But most likely from around here."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i would assume since sam is here and not somewhere else

[Priestess (Master)] It will be difficult to know where to start

[Priestess (Master)] I can put in a request for you

[Priestess (Master)] what sort of donation to the church would you be making today?

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] slip her a Hamilton

[Priestess (Master)] (tickets to Hamliton? wow you do know how to bribe someone )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] i wish i had some

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] Elle smiles and looks a bit ashamed. "I would like to offer a donation in the name of the elves of the Highwoods and the temple of Solonor Thelandria, but I am afraid I do not know your customs here. I am embarissed to ask, but what would be an apropriate amount?"

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "We usually give gifts of art back home but I understand here money is expected, yes?"

[Priestess (Master)] For a wilderness church, of a temple to an unknown god, I am not certain

[Priestess (Master)] here in the City money is often given

[Priestess (Master)] or goods, such as deeds, or works of charity

[Priestess (Master)] Those who are poor and cannot offer coin can offer their services to the church

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::smiles:: "We are not poor. I just do not know your human customs and don't want to offend you and your gracious help."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::places a hand over her heart:: "We value aid and those who give it to us."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "My Lord Barnabus, perhaps you can help me?"

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] You say you have need of assistance to your church

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (hee hee)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we'll go on a quest!)

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] Would that be here in the library? or perhaps we could bring back something you are in search of?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)

[Anton (Mario Teq Kit)] (groan)

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] If we knew what you were in search of we could determine if it was something we could do or if we should make a donation to help you pay a reward for someone to do it

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] or you know... money?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] like, just some coinage

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I hear unicorn hairs are in fashion! :) )

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] yes. there we go

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] a donation for a reward. perfect.

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] whispers to Elle we can offer them money for the reward, then do the quest and get the money back

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (this is why branwyn loves him)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::manages to keep a straight face::

[Priestess (Master)] I am not certain of what the church is in search of,

[Priestess (Master)] but if you are interested in helping we would be very glad to use your assistance

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "And what could I do for you?"

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] groan

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] grooooooaaaaaaaan

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i should have just shoved money at them

[Priestess (Master)] perhaps if you could return in the morning? I will ask to what is out there

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] but i didn't bring bribes along

[Priestess (Master)] (always bring a full purse to church, grins)

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::smiles:: "Of course. Thank you."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] Do not doubt our courage, there is no quest too difficult for us

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] we will return in the morning to hear of your request

Lord Branadarus (Master) bows

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] and leaves escorting Elle

[Master] Ellenara Psyndarryn moved 2'05".

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] That went well

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "If you say so. I forget how greedy human churches are."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] you said you leave art at your church?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] who keeps it?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "I made that up. Really, to bring together two halves of a divided family would be a good deed worthy of doing by itself."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "It only takes a little time looking through records to accomplish. But then, you have so little time, don't you?"

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] So it is true you leave nuts and fruit then?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] It is a large bulding I am certain they have many books

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] many many books

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I am the wrong person for that sort of quest

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "For the fey folk who often live there. Little offerings to them do much to keep the temple running."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I stand guard at the door and let the priests and mages search for words

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "They often clean and mend things at night when no one is looking."

Lord Branadarus (Master) pokes Elle in the ribs with his elbow

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] yes that is what I told my mum

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Ah, what was that for?"

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] it was the little ones in the night

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] that is who made the mess

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] Ye- no- well, maybe."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Did you treat them well?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] treat who?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Give them food? And not mention them to others?"

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I like to think she left happy

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "The fey in your house."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] oh I fed them of course too

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] don't elves do that ?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Household brownies and the like must be respected."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] treat the woman first?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] not sure about brownies

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] how do those taste?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] but we always had servants to clean and polish

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Wha- What are you talking about ? I'm talking about the fey folk. Brownies usually. They often take residence in large buildings and if given food will clean and mend at night."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] so I suppose it would not have done much good to have any brownies or

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] fey folk like the little things that scatter in the woods?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] never seen any of those at hom e

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] home

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] thought they lived in the woods because they like it there

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "They are a proud race and like their privacy. You do not talk about them or they might leave. Leave them good morsels at night and they will keep yoru house better than a hundred servants

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] they leave little trips and traps

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "They do. And so do we, you know."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] the servants can make the marble shine like glass

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "No, those would be pixies most likely."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "They are much more troublesome."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I thought pixies were flyers and brownies were ground ?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] not that any would be here in the City

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] so what sort of quest do you want to go on?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I am hoping she finds us someting about a long lost magical sword

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] there is always other treasure around such things

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] we can give them the sword, collect our reward

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] and then with the other things we find

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "I hope it is an easy one that I dont' have to leave the city for."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I am certain that Branwyn will like, maybe a ring? or a tiara?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "My last quest with Ilero was uncomfortable and disappointing."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] though she is not the type for tiaras

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I heard you were out in the cold for days

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "I do not think the Mistress is a jewelry kind of person."

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] how was he at keeping you warm?

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Rare components."

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "He was able to make good fires."

Lord Branadarus (Master) puzzled, then laughs

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] ahhhh

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I have not heard of it that way before

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I will have to remember that

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] I am certain that Branwyn likes my fires too

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "You make the fires in her bedchamber now? I imagine Artibella would have handled that."

[Master] and so more chit chat as you wait for Jennivive and then return back to the Residence

[Master] Anton?

[Master] anything else to accomplish in RP before dinner tonight

[Master] everyone will be in next week and we will have dinner

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] sounds good. i'm good for the night

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so tomorrow i get to meet the voice of winnie the pooh

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] it's funny that that is who is sticking out to me on the media list of the con
