Kaz has received the map Level one.
[Death] it was spanish
[Lisa] Is that a good thing?
[BOB] welcome everyone
[Lisa] Hey Kaz!
[Death] it was pretty
[Death] but not very cultural or historical
[Lisa] where were you?
[Death] the towns all kinda looked the same, modern buildings or old
[Death] costa del sol
[Death] we saw the oldest bullring in the world and it looked just like the rest of the street. just blended right in.
[Lisa] lol
[Death] so it was hard to pick out stuff and say wow look at that
[Death] but the food was fun
[Death] and we did see bulld get killed
[Death] no matador gorings though.
[Lisa] too bad
[Death] i was hoping
[BOB] so no Guy tonight
[BOB] Lorie will try to look in
[BOB] but no character for her yet
[BOB] so we will see what happens
[BOB] dinner is being cooked right now
[Lisa] lemme guess .... pizza?
[BOB] nope
[Lisa] wow
[BOB] spegetti
[BOB] have to have pasta with a meal now *wry grin*
[Lisa] didn't get enough in Italy?
[BOB] is there such a thing as too much?
[BOB] and I think that you three should refresh each other's memories on where you left off and what you are trying ot accomplish
[Lisa] guess not
[Kaz] I am away from the keyboard.
[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.
[Kaz] halloo!!
[Death] i'm stuck
[Death] i can't do anything for who knows how long
[Kaz] Sorry, just as I was logging in, there was a knock at the door.
[Death] i would assume it wears off eventually.
[Lisa] census?
[Death] or i die
[Lisa] vacuum cleaner salesman?
[BOB] or someone casts remove paralization
[BOB] are any of you following the world cup?
[Lisa] we lost - who cares? :)
[BOB] lol
[Kaz] Kid to mow the lawn
[Lisa] I want my two dollars!
[Kaz] Sorry, I don't follow any sport with vuvuzelas
[Kaz] LOL Lisa!!
[BOB] the kid who cuts your grass follows the cup? what team? :P
[Kaz] you know, I just cut off the comment that was on the tip of my fingers, and you should all be grateful.
[Kaz] Anyway, welcome home, Bob and Mike. Glad you both had a good time.
[BOB] Mike have a Vuvuzela app on his phone
[BOB] but back to other matters
[BOB] Branwyn and Imari are paralyzed
[BOB] Foriso is walking wounded
[BOB] and not here
[BOB] and being called away brb
[BOB] I am away from the keyboard.
[BOB] I am back at the keyboard.
[BOB] and plates filled
[BOB] so I am sure the two of you have a new crazy scheme to try out?
[Lisa] of course
[Lisa] I still can't figure out how to adjust Indigo's saving throws with the bonuses Guy added
[Lisa] none of the numbers look like what is on the websiye chart
[BOB] ok
[BOB] want to walk through that together?
[Lisa] sure
[BOB] Ok so Inigo is a fighter so he uses the warrior chart
[BOB] on the saving throw page
[BOB] and at his current level of ?
[Lisa] there are 4s in temp modifiers but regular numbers are really high on regular sheet compared to website
[Lisa] 3
[BOB] so then leve three the Paralyzation save
[BOB] is a base of 13
[BOB] no need to change his sheet yet
[BOB] just walking through the steps first
[BOB] he starts at a 13
[BOB] then he might get a Con bonus to his saves
[Death] dwarfs do
[Death] he's short
[BOB] no Mike, this is based on your Health Score
[Death] he should, too
[Lisa] this is too big of a hassle - forget it
[BOB] it just so happens you need a 19 health to get that bonus
[Death] oh that.
[BOB] then being a halfling gives a bonus to saves
[Death] dwarves also get a con bonus to spells and para
[BOB] that is what Mike was refering to
[BOB] and unfortunately those modifiers are not on the site
[BOB] the halfling page is woefully laking
[Death] so you would say it's pretty short on info?
[Lisa] shambling mounds can see can't they?
[Lisa] lol
[BOB] groans at mike
[BOB] and yes they can see
[Lisa] good
[Kaz] back in a minute
[Kaz] I am away from the keyboard.
[BOB] and Lisa just to keep in mind Indigo gets a bonus against any Poison save, and Spell save or Wands Staves and Rods save
[BOB] I would just leave the numbers on his sheet the way they are
[BOB] for ease of play tonight
[BOB] and over teh weekend I will bring up klooge and we can work on that together
[Lisa] sounds good
[BOB] When Kaz returns my first question of the night was going to be what time in the morning is it?
[BOB] end of the last session we moved it to 8 am
[Lisa] Isn't it your job to tell us that>
[BOB] but you could wake up an hour earlier if you wanted
[BOB] grins
[BOB] normal wake up is 8
[BOB] so I set it to that so you were as healed and new spells as you would get
[BOB] and have an hour to get out to the dock
[BOB] captain shows up at 9
[Lisa] okay
[BOB] but if you wanted more time you could be an hour earlier
[Lisa] but less healed?
[BOB] no
[BOB] if you were higher level would not have all your spells perhaps
[Lisa] we could get up earlier then
[BOB] but you will have all of yours if you pick 7 o r8
[Lisa] but all we have to do is cart everything to the dock
[BOB] earlier than 7 is an issue
[Lisa] and pick up Kristelle
[BOB] three bodies two chests
[Lisa] and 3 sacks
[Death] so get to it
[BOB] imagining carrying Imari out to the dock
[Death] we're not unparalyzing ourselves here
[BOB] plop her down
[BOB] stay here
[BOB] then walking back to the keep
[Lisa] lol
[BOB] Kristelle XP award: 333. Next level in 5141.
[BOB] Branwyn XP award: 333. Next level in 2626.
[BOB] Imari XP award: 333. Next level in 13273.
[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.
[Kaz] I'm back, sorry about that
[BOB] Kristelle XP award: 400. Next level in 4741.
[BOB] ok, so early bonus XP awareded and Kaz's work on entering all those God pages while I was gone is awarded
[Kaz] Bob, some of the pages that were supposedly in the Legends and Lore book, weren't there. Anyone missing from the Greek pantheon.
[BOB] nods, there are some that are scattered through other books
[Kaz] but we can have that conversation later this weekend...
[Death] testecles
[Death] greek god of all that is man
[Kaz] Oh Mike, you are SUCH a boy.
[Kaz] I bet you even have boy cooties!
[Death] robert made it up
[Death] i blame him
[BOB] I do have to admit that several times in Rome I almost spouted out What have the Romans ever done for us
[BOB] besides the Aqueducts
[Kaz] LOL
[BOB] and the schools
[BOB] and the
[Indigo (Lisa)] (so shall we start bringing our stuff out?)
[BOB] ok, moving back to important things
[BOB] what is your plan for the Shambling Mound?
[Death] with dmitri martin
[Death] set it on fire
[BOB] and or getting Kristelle's body back from it
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I was thinking about having him get a nice look at the journal chest)
[BOB] grins
[BOB] that is a very cool idea
[Indigo (Lisa)] (been sitting on that for 3 weeks)
[BOB] talk me through how you want to do it
[BOB] chuckles
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo walks over to mound - shuts eyes and flips open chest in mound direction)
[Death] that might work
[BOB] that sounds like a good plan, what about if it does not fail its save? and is not paralyzed?
[Indigo (Lisa)] then oops
[Indigo (Lisa)] we run
[BOB] any spells from Miranda that could make the chances worse?
[BOB] bless or something like that?
[Kaz] I believe so
[Death] is there an inverse chant?
[Kaz] Yes, Miranda has Bless
[Death] or bless?
[BOB] bless is reversable yes
[Death] well there you go
[BOB] cast it on the shambling mound and if it works then it raises its saves by 1
[BOB] 5% harder
[BOB] any other ideas?
[BOB] want you to be sure you are ready then we can walk through it pretty quickly
[Indigo (Lisa)] my only other thought was to give it a wide berth carrying stuff
[BOB] carry stuff out first? or attempt to stun it first?
[Indigo (Lisa)] and when we grab Kristelle - do it like Branwyn did for Imari - grab and run
[Death] just open/shut repeatedly
[Death] each open/shut is a new save
[Death] one will stick
[Indigo (Lisa)] true
[Death] and when we present the books to the wizard we should totally just give him the shut chest
[BOB] lol
[Indigo (Lisa)] lol
[Death] oops! did we forget about that trap?
[Kaz] Miranda will have to grab her if Indigo is doing the chest
[Kaz] and I agree with Mike. :D
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo has to if Miranda is cursing mound, correct?
[BOB] can not do both in one round
[BOB] but could do in consecutive rounds
[Kaz] then who is going to lift the chest lid?
[BOB] cast the curse
[Indigo (Lisa)] so Indigo does chest and Miranda does reverse bless
[BOB] then next do the chest
[Indigo (Lisa)] other way around then
[BOB] so then next to figure out is carry stuff out first? or bodies out first? or mound first?
[BOB] leave stuff out on the dock for the truck to pick up in the morning?
[Indigo (Lisa)] we have to pass mound when we carry stuff out don't we?
[BOB] Foriso can walk on his own no need to carry him, you can leave him out there alone, but he can not fight to defend himself
[BOB] there is the outside map
[BOB] you can see the Mound is still near the main path
[BOB] but there are the side paths
[BOB] remember the arrow point in the direction of the slope UP
[Death] use the side paths for all our bodies
[Kaz] we might want to do the mound first, since the paralyzation doesn't just wear off
[Death] then go after the mound once we're piled up ready to go
[Kaz] we don't know what's on the side paths
[Death] at least that way the captian might collect the living statues
[Indigo (Lisa)] I thought we went the way we did cuz we didn't have to cut our way through bushes etc.
[Indigo (Lisa)] or am I wrong?
[Kaz] We were going to exploore the outside first
[BOB] if you are not on the path you have to cut through the bushes
[BOB] there is the large main path and the secondary loop
[Indigo (Lisa)] so we could get some stuff out through the center path and come back for Kristelle
[Death] i guess in the long run it doesn't matter
[Death] you have to face the mound eventually
[Indigo (Lisa)] really doesn't make too much difference :)
[Death] and if it kills you later you're still ded
[Kaz] just dead later, rather than sooner
[BOB] so it is agreed that later than sooner is the better option
[Indigo (Lisa)] if those are our only choices, yes
[BOB] moving bodies out then gear out then use chest to stun the Mound and get Kristelle ?
[BOB] is that the plan of the moment?
[Indigo (Lisa)] think so
[Kaz] okay
[Indigo (Lisa)] Foriso can watch the loot on the docks
[BOB] yes
[Death] hey thief, watch this treasure
[Indigo (Lisa)] lol - not much choice there
[BOB] ok, so you plop those out there
[BOB] we will say that it takes you an hour's worth of work for that?
[BOB] starting at 7 to bring you to 8
[BOB] Miranda moved 7'10".
[BOB] Indigo moved 4'08".
[BOB] Chest #1 moved 8'11".
[Indigo (Lisa)] Why are we carting around the empty chest? Are the sacks in the chest now?
[BOB] just using that as the marker for the sacks
[Indigo (Lisa)] okay
[BOB] the three sacks will not actually fit inside of one chest
[BOB] chest #2 is the one with the trap on it
[BOB] and now
[BOB] Miranda has her full spells
[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((yes))
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Indigo always goes first in combat - can he delay and go after Miranda but before mound?)
[BOB] yes
[BOB] I put the chest in Indigo's inventory
[BOB] to make it simplier to move around
[BOB] and you can always delay an action
[Death] we do know for sure the four books are in the chest, right?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (make sure Miranda is not in line of chest or shuts eyes after casting)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Branwyn and Imari probably know - but they're not talking)
[BOB] ok, as you see the Shamblign Mound closer you can see it looks quiet
[BOB] it has Kristelle's foot under it and seems to be sending out roots into her
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((ewwww))
[Indigo (Lisa)] (it likes her)
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((A necrophiliac bush...ugh))
[Indigo (Lisa)] (not a pretty picture)
[Miranda (Kaz)] Miranda moved 68'00".
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((I guess we're around here?))
[BOB] sure
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 58'09".
[BOB] you can be where you want
[Miranda (Kaz)] Miranda moved 7'10".
[Death] can we keep it?
[Miranda (Kaz)] back at the ground, at our home, fully alive and healthy - that's where I want.
[BOB] smile
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((Do I have to target the mound for the bless/curse?))
[BOB] yes
[Kaz] Miranda targets Shambling Mound. Distance: 7'05"
[Miranda (Kaz)] Miranda casts a spell against Shambling Mound: Bless/Curse: "For 6 rounds, attack rolls and saves vs fear receive a +1 bonus."
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((are you sure that's right?))
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((I don't want it getting bonuses!!))
[BOB] I know
[BOB] Shambling Mound: Magical Spell save: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL FAILED against 20!!
[BOB] Ok
[BOB] so it failed its save against the curse
[BOB] it has a -1 to its saves for the next 6 rounds
[BOB] and with that it wakes up
Indigo (Lisa) puts chest on ground facing mound, shuts eyes and opens chest
Miranda (Kaz) looks away from the chest
[BOB (to GM only)] Shambling Mound: Paralysis, Poison or Death save: (d20) [1d20=16] 16 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL FAILED against 17!!
[BOB] and wow
[BOB] it fails only because of the curse
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((wow, yay!!))
[Indigo (Lisa)] (what fails?)
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((I'm assuming the shambling mound failed))
[BOB] needed a 16 to not be paralyzed and it roleld a 16
[BOB] but the +1 from the curse made it fail
[Indigo (Lisa)] (thank god!)
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((YAY!))
[Death] but it's immune
[Death] just wait for it
[BOB] no sadly it is not
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((Mike, I'm really glad to just be home, but I WILL come down there and smack you!!))
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((Bob, what do you mean, SADLY?))
[BOB] chuckles
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((I'll smack you, too!!))
Indigo (Lisa) closes chest and cautiously opens eyes
[BOB] hey Mike is here at the house for the first time in Ages
[Death] i like a good spanking
[BOB] I will not do that for him though
[Miranda (Kaz)] Is it safe? Are we safe?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (chest is closed and he looks like Bran and Imari to me)
[BOB] yes
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((that was ic))
[Indigo (Lisa)] Indigo moved 12'09".
Indigo (Lisa) looks at the roots around Kristelle's leg
Miranda (Kaz) moves closer and examines the roots carefully
[Miranda (Kaz)] I think we can cut them... I think.
[Indigo (Lisa)] I can try but let's see if I can pull her out without cutting them
[Death] you could cut off her leg
Indigo (Lisa) tries to pull Kristelle out from under the mound
[BOB] Indigo drags the mound along with Kristelle
[Indigo (Lisa)] This isn't going to work
[BOB] they seem to be melded together
[Indigo (Lisa)] (jeez!)
Miranda (Kaz) pulls out her dagger and tries cutting into a root
[BOB] it cuts slowly but surely
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((you couldn't make ONE THING a bit easier?))
Miranda (Kaz) slices away at the root until it is severed
Indigo (Lisa) tries pulling Kristelle out again
[BOB] chuckles I will give you one easy thing then, as you cut and pull Kristelle out you see there is a larg sack that has been encased in roots also, from an earlier victim
[BOB] Miranda cuts open the sack and out tumbles 2 bone scroll cases, 2 potion bottles and 3 gems
Miranda (Kaz) gives Indigo a startled look
[Miranda (Kaz)] Is she free, Indigo?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Yes
[Death] yaaaaaaay.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Can you take those items while I carry Kristelle?
[Death] lewt
[Indigo (Lisa)] We might as well take everything for all we've been through
[Miranda (Kaz)] Yes, I'll hold on to them.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Oh, and you should carry the crystal mace that Kristelle was using at least for now
Indigo (Lisa) hands Miranda the mace
Miranda (Kaz) takes the mace and looks it over
[Miranda (Kaz)] It's very pretty.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Never seemed to do much for her
[Miranda (Kaz)] Well, perhaps it is a holy item.
Miranda (Kaz) shrugs.
[Miranda (Kaz)] I guess we'll see.
Indigo (Lisa) carefully picks up Kristelle
[Indigo (Lisa)] We should get back to the docks
[BOB] Miranda XP award: 750. Level-up!
[BOB] Indigo XP award: 750. Next level in 3169.
[BOB] Imari XP award: 1500. Next level in 11773.
[BOB] Branwyn XP award: 1500. Next level in 1126.
[BOB] Kristelle XP award: 1500. Next level in 3241.
[BOB] Shambling Mound moved 4'02".
[BOB] Kristelle and Indigo moved 67'04".
[BOB] Miranda moved 63'04".
[Miranda (Kaz)] We should get the chest, too
[BOB] you have it
[BOB] you have all the gear there
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((oh, okay))
[BOB] am just waiting for the captian to show up now
Miranda (Kaz) takes Kristelle's cloak and waves it around every few minutes.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we should run Kristelle's cloak up the flagpole)
[BOB] I award XP to all the characters that survived the battle with the Shambling Mound, even those paralized
[Death] goody
[Indigo (Lisa)] (the paralyzed would thank you if they could)
[BOB] if the chest trick did not work they would have been consumed
[BOB] so they deserve something
[BOB] and in the end the Javelin does show up
[BOB] Javelin moved 12'08".
[BOB] Javelin moved 200'01".
[BOB] Javelin moved 24'05".
[BOB] Javelin moved 96'08".
[BOB] Javelin moved 215'09".
[BOB] Javelin moved 14'00".
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] Ho the Island
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] are you ready to board?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Yes, most definitely so
[Miranda (Kaz)] I couldn't be more ready.
[BOB] Chest #1 moved 4'00".
[BOB] Javelin moved 17'07".
[Death] you know, that javelin looks more like a boat than a weapon.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] so where do we sail to?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Miranda, should we talk to the Captain about seeing a priest for the others?
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] your group has changed from yesterday quite drastically
[Indigo (Lisa)] I would hate to bring them back to the Keep in such a state
[Miranda (Kaz)] I agree.
[Miranda (Kaz)] Captain Harkness, do you know of any temples that are not too far off our path that could help our friends?
[Indigo (Lisa)] Yes Captain, we ran into some misfortune upon the island
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] the Captain calls out to his two deck hands to cast off
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] and the island drifts away into the distance
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] what help do you seek for your friends?
Branwyn (Lisa) feels like her nose is starting to itch and getting frustrated and not being able to move
Indigo (Lisa) looks at Miranda unsure who can help his friends
Miranda (Kaz) glances at Kristelle
[Miranda (Kaz)] Well, someone who can raise the dead, and also someone who can cure the paralysis of the others.
[Death] we seek unpetrification
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] to return a spirit from the skies beyond is very hard
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] I do know of a temple that might help
[Indigo (Lisa)] Can you take us there?
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] he grins
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] I can for a price
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] my contract says to take you to his magefullness
[Miranda (Kaz)] Well, we didn't expect you to do it for freee.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] back at the Jistelle Estates
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] nods his head, I am glad you are reasonable about this
[Miranda (Kaz)] And so we will go, but we'd like to be in working order, first.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] I understand
[BOB] Captain Harkness moved 17'08".
[Miranda (Kaz)] And of course, it depends on the price... you know we aren't so very rich, but we'll do what we can.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] he moves to teh wheel
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] and sets a course for the north
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((and if we save his damned ship from damned pirates, he'd damned well better cut us a break!!!))
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] we will need to gain in altitude
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] to clear the Mist
[Miranda (Kaz)] You'd better tell us what the cost will be, first, I think. I'd hate to find we can't afford to pay you, after you go through the trouble of helping us.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] I do not know what the Temple will ask in return for their services
[Miranda (Kaz)] I wouldn't expect you to. I meant your price, not theirs.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] I will charge you a simple 500 gp for traveling expenses, payable in gems of course
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] or other non metalic items
[Indigo (Lisa)] We have a beautiful ruby appraised for 500 gp
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] may I see it? holding out his hand
[Death] ugh
[Death] he's gouging us
[Death] don't forget the HUGE price for spells from a church
[Indigo (Lisa)] (we still have 46 gems not appraised yet - this is good deal perhaps)
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((-A- are you surprised? and -B- are you surprised?))
[Indigo (Lisa)] (okay to hand over?)
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((I'd say yes))
[Death] no, not surprised. if fin were here he'd give the guy a good threatening
[Death] and then shoot him in a non lethal place for the hastle
[Death] i guess
[Death] ake sure that price includes the trip OUT of the temple, too
[Indigo (Lisa)] (then he throw Imari overboard for good measure)
[Indigo (Lisa)] That is a round trip price of course?
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] for your current group, damaged ones included
Indigo (Lisa) digs around in sack and pulls out the ruby and hands it to the captain
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] holds it up to the light
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] pulls out a monocle to look at it closer
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] nods
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] looks at you
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] do we have a deal?
Miranda (Kaz) watches the Captain
[Indigo (Lisa)] We have a deal
[Miranda (Kaz)] Our group, our belongings, to and from the Temple...
Miranda (Kaz) pauses in thought, wondering if the Captain is anything like the Mage, speaking through loopholes.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Answer Miranda, Captain
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] agred to the temple and then return to the Jistelle Estates
[Miranda (Kaz)] Thank you, Captain.
[Miranda (Kaz)] I wish you the joy of that beautiful gem.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] chuckles, it will bring us great joy
Miranda (Kaz) smiles
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] he reaches over and pull off a cap on the post of the ships wheel
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] there is a cup just inside
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] he sets the ruby inside of the cup
[Death] and drinks it?
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] places the cap back on
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] then picks up a small iron hammer that is attached to the ships wheel and SLAMS it down on the cap
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] you hear the Ruby go CRACK
Miranda (Kaz) jumps in surprise
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] and then with another swift WHAM
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] hammers the cap down again
[Death] tool
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] when he picks up the cap
[Death] the hammer, you know
[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((*snerks at Mike*))
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] nothing but the slightest red dust is left
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] and he quickly covers it back up
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] gently securing the cap and hammer back where they belong
Miranda (Kaz) looks quizzically at the Captain
[Death] cup of holding through magic hammer pounding?
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] he sails on serenely, seeming to be happier than before
[Death] next chapter in the hunter's journal is up if either of you were looking forward to it.
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((cool, will check it out later))
[Death] who isn't happy when they destroy gems?
[Death] i assume there was a reason to what he did, but until i hear it he's a loon
Miranda (Kaz) shrugs and turns back to Indigo.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] says the person who thinks people who live in buildings are strange
[BOB] and so you sail north
[BOB] gaining altitude
[Death] people are strange
[BOB] and you clear the Mist
[Death] buildings or no
[BOB] and can see around you
[BOB] up here the ground is a distant brown and green blur
[Death] and here's imari, missing a good flight
[BOB] with several large blue rivers stretching from horizon to horizon
Miranda (Kaz) looks around, smiling, without looking down.
Miranda (Kaz) looks up and around, marveling at being amongst the clouds (or above them, whatever)
[BOB] you see a more solid looking cloud ahead
[BOB] and the Captain steers the Javelin towards it
[BOB] as you approach you see there is a dock slightly larger than the one you left on the Mages Island
[BOB] and as you get closer still you see a large well maintained garden
[BOB] just beyond an arch near the docks
[BOB] the Captain looks at you
[BOB] take off your boots
[BOB] they will not let you tread their grounds
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Indigo isn't barefoot?)
[BOB] (he is, Mirand and the others are wearing boots, well one of Kristelles is mostly gone but you get the point)
[BOB] when we arrive I will go to them first
[BOB] I will ask if they will hear your petition
[BOB] if so then you will come to them first
Miranda (Kaz) removes her boots, and pulls off Kristelle's boots as well.
[BOB] and ask
[BOB] then come back for your companions in need
[Indigo (Lisa)] Who are these people you have taken us to?
[Miranda (Kaz)] To whom is this Temple dedicated?
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] The priestess' here are well known through the sky lanes
[Death] is it.....
[Death] satan?
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((atan atan atan atan))
[Death] dramatic pause
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] they do not always help those in need
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] but they seem to help those that deserve it
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] that is all I can say for certain
[Death] couldn't be, then
[Death] he'll help anyone
[Death] for a price.
[Death] mwahahahahaha
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] I will return
[BOB] he goes off to the dock, he pulls off his boots then walks through the archway into the gardens
[BOB] after a while he returns
[BOB] (resetting the calendar now for you to the correct day and time)
[BOB] Time of Day: 04:00 PM. Day 13 Ced ___ tre, Spe {Early Fall} 13th, 338 SKR.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] two of the three have refused to hear your request
[Indigo (Lisa)] But the other?
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] but one has deemed it interesting enough to have a land dweller request that she will see you in the garden
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] I do not know if she will help
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] but she will listen
[Miranda (Kaz)] Thank you, Captain.
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] nods his head
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] good luck
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] and strong winds
[BOB] Indigo moved 34'00".
[BOB] Miranda moved 29'04".
Miranda (Kaz) gives a little bow, then sets off with Indigo.
[BOB] Priestess moved 5'10".
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] as you go through the arch way
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] you see that the gardens are well laid out with benches under trees
[BOB] small fountains glitter with water
[BOB] the ground is spongy under your feet like walking in spring grass
[BOB] you see a middle aged woman sitting under a tree cross legged
[BOB] she becons you over
Miranda (Kaz) walks over to the priestess and bows.
[Priestess (BOB)] she smiles
[Miranda (Kaz)] Thank you for seeing us.
[Priestess (BOB)] I am curious of news from the strange lands below
[Priestess (BOB)] and the Good Captain tells me you have a interesting story to tell
[Priestess (BOB)] and are brave enough to request a favor from our Temple
[Priestess (BOB)] sit with me
[Death] don't tell her
[Death] it's a trap
[Priestess (BOB)] and tell me your story
[Priestess (BOB)] and what favor you would ask of me
Miranda (Kaz) lowers herself to the ground and gets comfortable.
[Miranda (Kaz)] What news from below most interests you?
[Priestess (BOB)] I do not know I have never visited there
[Priestess (BOB)] what should interest me?
[Miranda (Kaz)] And this is our first time in the world above. It is quite a different place, yet with some things the same.
Indigo (Lisa) sits down
[Priestess (BOB)] she waits, listening
[Death] awwww... tell her to unpetrify us
[Indigo (Lisa)] I am not sure how to talk to priestesses but we are in dire need of your powers
Miranda (Kaz) leans toward Indigo. 'Patience, Indigo.'
Miranda (Kaz) turns back to the priestess.
Indigo (Lisa) whispers "well, we are!"
[Miranda (Kaz)] Your pardon. We are in need of help, but my impetuous friend is in a rush.
Miranda (Kaz) sighs.
[Priestess (BOB)] smiles
[Miranda (Kaz)] We shouldn't tarry overlong, but of course we can have a conversation.
Miranda (Kaz) smiles somewhat timidly.
[Priestess (BOB)] why not tarry?
[Priestess (BOB)] why would you rush along like a bird rther than bide like the clouds?
Miranda (Kaz) smiles a bit more.
[Miranda (Kaz)] How uninteresting would the skies be if there were no birds?
[Miranda (Kaz)] Clouds are meant to be as they are, and birds are meant to be as they are. My dear companion, here, is a bird, I guess.
[Miranda (Kaz)] And a wonderful bird, at that. A loyal and caring friend.
[Priestess (BOB)] and how do you two friends come to visit us
[Miranda (Kaz)] We are part of a group of people who, for lack of better wording, are a mercenary group. However, as I would suspect mercenaries are usually amoral and often on the wrong side of Right... well, our people are not like that.
[Miranda (Kaz)] In any case, we agreed to help a friend of the Lord who we recently worked for, and we found ourselves on the Captain's marvelous flying ship...
Miranda (Kaz) smiles again.
[Miranda (Kaz)] What a wondrous thing, to fly amongst the clouds.
[Miranda (Kaz)] In any case, we were to help the mage by protecting his future home against invaders. Pirates, mainly. And...well...
[Miranda (Kaz)] It did not go well for us, Priestess.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Not well at all
[Miranda (Kaz)] We asked Captain Harkness if he knew of a Temple that might aid us, and he brought us here but promised nothing.
Miranda (Kaz) sighs heavily.
[Miranda (Kaz)] One of our people dead, two petrified... I am not strong enough to help them.
Miranda (Kaz) folds her lips firmly and blinks a few times, then sniffs a little and takes a deep breath.
[Priestess (BOB)] who are your friends?
[Miranda (Kaz)] They are aboard the ship. Our petrified friends are Branwyn, a mage and good friend, and Imari, a Shardik priestess.
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((hope I got that right, Mike))
[Death] yup
[Death] though the specific god is partik
[Miranda (Kaz)] Kristelle is our dead... she is a ranger from the swamps, always rushing to take the brunt of an attack to protect the weaker.
[Miranda (Kaz)] Imari is a devotee of Partik, if that means anything to you.
[Priestess (BOB)] sits quietly listening to you
[Indigo (Lisa)] These friends saved me from being a slave to evil goblins and do not deserve this fate that has befallen them
Miranda (Kaz) smiles at Indigo.
[Miranda (Kaz)] We were blessed to find you, Indigo.
[Miranda (Kaz)] Not long ago, Priestess, we were a group of strangers, thrown together with no apparent design.
[Miranda (Kaz)] And yet, in such a short time, we have become close, and work together as though we have known each other forever.
[Miranda (Kaz)] As though, I don't know, as though we just belong together.
[Priestess (BOB)] she sits looking at you, judging your words, listening to your story
[Miranda (Kaz)] When I thought I was losing my Way, they stood by me, never judged me, just let me know they were there.
[Miranda (Kaz)] When we found Indigo, we helped him escape from the goblins, and he could have run away and left us to fight for him, but it was though he was supposed to be with us. He rolled to his feet, and fought for his freedom, and he never looked back.
Miranda (Kaz) smiles at Indigo again. "He's as loyal as a friend can be, and we're lucky to know him."
[Miranda (Kaz)] Imari - she is so stern, and sometimes she seems cold, but she really isn't. She just isn't emotional about everything. Well, maybe she could use a tough of patience... but couldn't we all? And Branwyn, she's so smart, and wise, too. And so courageous.
[Miranda (Kaz)] If I had the knowledge to help them, I would do it. Even if I burnt out all my power, I would. But I haven't the knowledge, I have so much to learn before I can be useful.
[Priestess (BOB)] and so you wish me to help your companions in what way? and at what cost?
[Priestess (BOB)] would you have me rip your friend from her rightful reward?
[Miranda (Kaz)] To restore them to health. In Kristelle's case, to life.
[Priestess (BOB)] just to please you here below?
[Miranda (Kaz)] Her rightful reward?
[Priestess (BOB)] you said she suffered, she went forward to face danger
[Indigo (Lisa)] They have many good things to offer the world below if they were given the chance
[Priestess (BOB)] does she not deserve the reward of her peace now?
[Priestess (BOB)] your two companions
[Priestess (BOB)] bring them to me
[Priestess (BOB)] and an offering
[Priestess (BOB)] and I will hear from them
[Miranda (Kaz)] But not Kristelle?
[Indigo (Lisa)] what do you desire as an offering?
[Indigo (Lisa)] (if she likes what Bran and Imari say - maybe Kristelle)
[Priestess (BOB)] I wish you to look at your selves and decide what to offer
Miranda (Kaz) considers that, then nods.
[Miranda (Kaz)] As you say, Priestess.
[Indigo (Lisa)] Thank you kind priestess, we shall go then and bring our friends to you
[Priestess (BOB)] she smiles and nods as you go
Miranda (Kaz) bows
Indigo (Lisa) awkwardly bows
[BOB] brb
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((sooooo... back at the ranch-ship...))
[BOB] b
[BOB] choices?
[BOB] Time of Day: 05:00 PM. Day 13 Ced ___ tre, Spe {Early Fall} 13th, 338 SKR.
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((We're thinking))
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Indigo can give up his talisman for Imari - it would hurt him greatly but he would sacrifice it to get them back)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (is the captain around?)
[BOB] sure
[Indigo (Lisa)] Captain, you know these priestesses, what types of offerings do they value?
[Indigo (Lisa)] They don't seem to share your fondness for crushed gems
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] ones that are given honestly,
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] some do give gems
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] other items of magic
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] some perform deeds for the Temple
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] rarely metal goods trade hands in the Sky Realms
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((Mike, any ideas? If she agrees to restore Kristelle, I"m sure that will be a huge task we owe. But an initial offering for helping Imari and Bran, what do you think?))
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((Problem is, Miranda doesn't really have anything personal.))
[Death] i'd offer gems i suppose
[Death] pick pretty ones
[Death] the general rule of thumb is i believe 100g/level of spell
[Death] we don't have any deeply personal or mystic stuff to give up
[Death] and remove paralysis is pretty standard anyway
[Death] not worth anything of deep value
[Death] just regular value
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((we have 43 unappraised gems with us. Sorry, 44. The only things we know the value of is the silver candlesticks.))
[Captain Harkness (BOB)] 46
[Death] can we have our thief appraise them without guy being here?
[BOB] no
[Death] if not, just pick pretty ones i guess
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((That's what I said. 46.))
[Death] 4-5 per person?
[Indigo (Lisa)] eek - we could be giving her tons
[Death] i suppose.
[Death] but what else we going to do?
[Indigo (Lisa)] how about the candlesticks for both - 600 gp and see what she says?
[Death] granted we are toward the end of th enight
[Death] we could wait for guy next week
[Indigo (Lisa)] thought he was going to gone for a while - Kaz?
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((He has some closes, but I'm not sure about next week.))
[Indigo (Lisa)] wait - can't do candlestick - it's silver
[BOB] 8 gems total for the two paralyzed people? you won't miss what you did not have?
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((ooh, looks like he's working 11-7 next week))
[Death] i guess so
[Death] shrug
[Indigo (Lisa)] true - let's get it over with
[Death] what else are we going to do
Miranda (Kaz) sits down with the sack of gems and starts sorting through them, holding them up to the light and trying to find a good assortment.
[BOB] Branwyn moved 35'05".
[BOB] Imari moved 27'09".
[Miranda (Kaz)] (Okay, so 8 gems, picked for their colours, which Miranda then explains to the priestess to be similar to colours of things in the world below.))
[BOB] very well
[Priestess (BOB)] letting the gems sparkle in her palm
[Priestess (BOB)] I see I will be taking a journey
[Priestess (BOB)] and you have paid my fare for me
[Priestess (BOB)] I wonder where I will be going
[Priestess (BOB)] looks at the colors
[Miranda (Kaz)] I pray it will be an interesting journey, full of new things.
[Priestess (BOB)] this is the color of water? I have never seen water a blue like this
[Priestess (BOB)] she slides the gems into a small felt pouch
[Priestess (BOB)] and then waves a hand over Branwyn and Imari and they suddenly PITCH forward and fall on their faces into the grass
[Death] well that was bloody easy
Miranda (Kaz) gasps in surprise, then rushes to help Imari to her feet.
[Death] should have paid her half as much for just a hand job
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((LMAO))
[Death] I am back at the keyboard.
[Imari (Death)] ::frowns::
[Imari (Death)] "Where are we?"
[Imari (Death)] "This is not the floating castle."
Branwyn (Lisa) grunts and brings herself unsteadily to her feet
[Miranda (Kaz)] Imari, Branwyn, Captain Harkness brought us to this temple.
Miranda (Kaz) helps Branwyn gain her footing.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you
[Miranda (Kaz)] This priestess was kind enough to release you from your paralysis.
Branwyn (Lisa) bows to priestess
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you for your kindness
[Imari (Death)] "Thank you."
[Imari (Death)] "Are we still in the sky?"
[Miranda (Kaz)] We are, another floating island.
[Miranda (Kaz)] This one, however, is much more beautiful than the last.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] At least this one isn't tilting
[Priestess (BOB)] smiles
[Imari (Death)] "What god do you worship?"
Branwyn (Lisa) leans over and whispers to Indigo, "And thank you for taking care of us"
[Priestess (BOB)] the Temple of air adn light is here for those who wish to visit
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is quite beautiful
[Imari (Death)] "This would be a good place for Partik."
Branwyn (Lisa) looking at Miranda and Indigo, "Were you able to recover Kristelle's body from the shambling mound? Tell me you did not have to leave her where she lay?"
[Priestess (BOB)] looks at Imari and Branwyn, your friends were persuasive that your group should be reunited
[Imari (Death)] "That is good. I don't know how long we would have been stuck."
[Miranda (Kaz)] We had to cut away roots that the creature was desecrating her with.
[Priestess (BOB)] until your bodies rotted away from your bones
[Imari (Death)] "Mmm. Then I'm glad I wasn't left."
Branwyn (Lisa) shudders at the thought
[Imari (Death)] "I wonder if Partik would want Kristelle returned to us."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It does not surprise me to hear that our friends wished us back. We feel the same towards them and would have plead their cases as well.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We are true friends and live and work well together.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't know what Partik wishes, but I know Kristelle would want to live.
[Imari (Death)] "But we were not truly gone. Not yet."
[Imari (Death)] "Kristelle is gone."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It was not in her nature to give up without a fight
[Imari (Death)] "Can she be returned here? Now?"
[Imari (Death)] "Partik willing."
[Imari (Death)] "If not, I will ask Partik for her."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am not sure why she is not here already if she can be saved
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at priestess, "is it in your powers to save our friend Kristelle as well?"
[Priestess (BOB)] I can indeed return her to these lands from the skys beyond
[Priestess (BOB)] I wish to hear why I should do so for you and what you offer for your friends return
[Imari (Death)] give her the finger
[Branwyn (Lisa)] She is a part of us and we a part of her.
[Imari (Death)] since it's so simple give her more gems
[Imari (Death)] like 6 this time
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Kristelle's finger?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We are as one and it is not the same without her. She is brave and has a great heart both in battle and out.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But as to what to offer you, I can only ask what would please you
[Priestess (BOB)] we here in the temple will require a service of those that come back to these lands through our exercise of power
[Priestess (BOB)] but as to what you should offer for us to grant your request
[Priestess (BOB)] you must decide that upon your own council
[Imari (Death)] while they discuss that, imari wants to wander around the garden
[Priestess (BOB)] sure
[Imari (Death)] are there distinguishing or unique things here?
[Imari (Death)] that could only be found up here in the temple of light and air?
[Priestess (BOB)] soft grass like spring time, there are two fountains that have a light spray of water coming out of htem
[Priestess (BOB)] the trees seem to be like those you know
[Priestess (BOB)] som eof the flowers in beds look to be different than you have seen but you would not know if they are just not native to the area you are from
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so offer more gems and promise service?)
[Imari (Death)] no altars or images of gods?
[Priestess (BOB)] none visible
[Priestess (BOB)] there is a wall around the garden
[Imari (Death)] since this is the temple of air and light we could offer her fun science facts
[Imari (Death)] such as the fact that magenta doesn't exist.
[Priestess (BOB)] but there is no other gate out but the one you came in
[Imari (Death)] pink does not exist as a color. how about that.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (yes it does)
[Imari (Death)] nope
[Imari (Death)] it's a short circuit in our brains.
[Imari (Death)] magenta does not exist in the white light color spectrum.
[Imari (Death)] i just read a fun article about it.
[Imari (Death)] it was on dr. kaboom's facebook update. hehe
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((LOL))
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I like my short circuiting brain then)
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((Only you, MIke.))
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so how many gems this time?)
[Imari (Death)] six or eight?
[Priestess (BOB)] or you could give something else
[Imari (Death)] "Priestess, you say you do not have a god?"
[Priestess (BOB)] I did not say that at all
[Imari (Death)] "Who is it you worship here?"
[Priestess (BOB)] we are the Temple of air and light
[Imari (Death)] "But what god gives you your power?"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So you worship air and light but no god controls these elements?
[Imari (Death)] "Do ou gain it from the air and light?"
[Priestess (BOB)] without one there can not be the other
[Priestess (BOB)] without both there can be nothing
[Priestess (BOB)] I hear your plea for your companion and I am moved
[Priestess (BOB)] bring her to me with your offering
[Imari (Death)] ::sits down::
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you. Indigo, please bring Kristelle from the ship
[Priestess (BOB)] and I will speak with my other companions about her return
[Imari (Death)] "I understand the need for air. All must breathe. Light gives life to the world and allows us to see. But how do you gain power from these?"
[Priestess (BOB)] smiles at Imari
[Priestess (BOB)] it is good to question
[Priestess (BOB)] yet it is because you question that you do not see
[Priestess (BOB)] it is not meant for all to see
[Priestess (BOB)] just as it it not meant for all to fly
[Imari (Death)] "There is need for the bear and spider, fox and snake as well as raven."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (tis a mystery)
[Imari (Death)] "All play their part."
[Imari (Death)] "But it is through these that we have powers. Other priests pray to other gods and are granted gifts. But to directly harness power from the elements?"
[Imari (Death)] "I have heard stories of people living in the woods. They pray to the trees and earth and are granted strength. Is that like you?"
[Priestess (BOB)] I am pleased to know that others have started down a path of life and non-life in your lands as well
[Priestess (BOB)] there are many ways of achieving balance
[Priestess (BOB)] I do not profess to understand them all
[Priestess (BOB)] where is your companion?
[Priestess (BOB)] (brb)
[Imari (Death)] ::looks around:: "The other get her. Can anyone learn the knowledge of the light and air? Can I?"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (while Bob's away - he seemed to think we could offer something other than gems but I don't see a lot)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oil of etherealness might interest her but that's one I think we might actually use ourselves)
[Priestess (BOB)] b
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sorry - just trying to think of something else we can give)
[BOB] you do not have to give somethign else, am just suggesting you look things over,
[Imari (Death)] the oil might be cool
[Priestess (BOB)] looking at Imari, anyone who seeks knowledge will find some
[Priestess (BOB)] if they use that knowledge is only within thier own power and choices
[Imari (Death)] "How should I seek such knowlege? Can I seek it while following Partik?"
[Priestess (BOB)] does Partik grant you knowledge?
[Imari (Death)] "Yes."
[Priestess (BOB)] Then you are on the path already
[BOB] so any thoughts on the offering?
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((Bob, we're going to go with What is the Oil of Etherealness for 1000, please.))
[BOB] very well
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (makes it sound like you do not approve)
[Priestess (BOB)] she takes the vial
[Priestess (BOB)] looks at it
[Priestess (BOB)] smiles
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((he said that about the gems, too))
[Priestess (BOB)] looks upon your group
[Priestess (BOB)] you do seek well if not always in a straight path
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((straight paths are boring!))
[Priestess (BOB)] return tomorrow morning to see if your friend does indeed desire to return to journey with you again
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you kind priestess
Branwyn (Lisa) bows garciously
[Imari (Death)] ::touches Kristelle's head and whispers a prayer to Partik::
[Priestess (BOB)] Ok, so in the morning
[BOB] Kaz
[BOB] does Kristelle want to come back?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (is there a dice roll involved in this working or not?)
[BOB] yes
[Miranda (Kaz)] ((yes))
[BOB] ok
[BOB] so you can make your ressurection check
[BOB] it is a 92%
[Kaz] System shock, yeah?
[BOB] no the resurection survivial system shock is for other things
[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((which one, then?))
[Branwyn (Lisa)] get out the defrib - clear!
[BOB] res survivial
[Kristelle (Kaz)] lol
[BOB] 92%
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Do I have to put a plus one in it?
[Kristelle (Kaz)] or did you get the roll?
[BOB] should have put the comma in that sentence sorry
[BOB] and no I did not see any roll
[BOB] so add the +1
[Kristelle (Kaz) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Kristelle modified: Ability Scores - Resurrection Survival:: CHANGED: 92+1 (92).
[Kristelle (Kaz)] still nothing?
[BOB] not that way Kaz
[BOB] your character sheet stays the same
[BOB] you put the +1 in the append box on the dice panel
[Kristelle (Kaz) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Kristelle modified: Ability Scores - Resurrection Survival:: CHANGED: 92 (92+1).
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ooh
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Kristelle: Resurrection Survival check: (d100) [1d100=80] 80 [MODIFIED (+1)] - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 93!!
[BOB] very good
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((YAY!))
[BOB] now your Con goes down by 1
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yay
[BOB] but you can make those adjustments next week
[BOB] and to Miranda for leveling earlier tonight
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Does that mean the health and everything go down, too?))
[BOB] Time of Day: 09:00 AM. Day 14 Be ___ tre, Spe {Early Fall} 14th, 338 SKR.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] every time you come back from dead your constitution goes down?
[BOB] yes to Kaz
[BOB] and yes to Lisa
[Kristelle (Kaz) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Kristelle modified: Ability Scores - CON: (C) : CHANGED: 13 (14).
[Imari (Death)] no
[Imari (Death)] it depends on how you come back
[Kristelle (Kaz) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Kristelle modified: Notes - CHANGED.
[Imari (Death)] raise dead does, but resurrection doesn't
[Imari (Death)] wishes don't
[Imari (Death)] ect.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((There, I left myself a message :D Now I just have to look at it!!))
[BOB] Kristelle's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 26 (40) - Unharmed
[Imari (Death)] in fact, i'd say there are more ways to come back that don't affect your con than do.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] how bout the Partik way?
[Imari (Death)] the easiest just happens to be that one.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] The Partik way is Raise Dead
[Imari (Death)] yup. that counts as raise dead
[Imari (Death)] just a special casting of the spell
[Imari (Death)] i'd assume bob's having this lady do the same thing
[Imari (Death)] just a hand wave for the raise dead spell
[Imari (Death)] anyhoo
[Imari (Death)] i'll see you all next week.
[Imari (Death)] night
[Branwyn (Lisa)] goodnight!
Death has left the game on Fri Jul 02 23:07:41 EDT 2010
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so good to be back
[BOB] grins
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Good night, Mike, sorry I missed you.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] it's too bad you rushed through the night like that Bob
[BOB] chuckles
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Mirnada could have healed us with left over spells
[Kaz] lol
[BOB] OH
[BOB] gotcha
[Kaz] Miranda does need to heal Foriso now, though.
[BOB] we can roll that out now
[BOB] for the previous night
[Kaz] homina-who?
[BOB] seeing Mike out brb
[BOB] cast away
[Kaz] Miranda moved 32'11".
[Kaz] Miranda targets Foriso Fairhand. Distance: 1'02"
[Kaz] Miranda casts a spell against Foriso Fairhand: Orison: I can create minor effects. (currently 6)
[Kaz] Miranda casts a spell against Foriso Fairhand: Orison: I can create minor effects. (currently 6)
[Kaz] I'm doing this as though it's the previous night?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes
[BOB] yes
[Kaz] oh yes, nevermind. The day before because they raised Kristelle the next day.
[Kaz] Miranda casts a spell against Foriso Fairhand: Orison: I can create minor effects. (currently 6)
[Kaz] so, 18 to Foriso
[BOB] Foriso Fairhand's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 19 (18) - Lightly Wounded
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so Guy's going to be in next week?
[Kaz] yes, he should be. Is expecting to be.
[BOB] Chest # 2 moved 46'10".
[Branwyn (Lisa)] can he appraise in a group or does he have to do each gem one by one?
[Kaz] I think he has to do them one by one.
[BOB] one by one sadly
[BOB] but he can make a fairly quick roll
[Branwyn (Lisa)] that should keep him busy
[Kaz] better for him that way, exp-wise, though.
[BOB] (20d20) [20d20=11,15,17,19,9,19,18,14,4,8,2,11,3,11,8,10,4,11,5,3] 202
[BOB] and then just go through and pick out the numbers that are low enought to be successfull
[Branwyn (Lisa)] nice
[BOB] of course if you roll a 20 you fail spectacularly
[BOB] you do not know you failed
[BOB] so the appraisal is wildly off
[BOB] high or low
[Kaz] so, a natural 20 is the natural 1 of 3rd Ed?
[BOB] on skill checks yes
[Kaz] nice
[BOB] the extreme ends of the scale
[Kaz] no wonder I"m always confused!
[BOB] for attacks a natural 20 is good
[Kaz] so, this new day, are we leaving on this day?
[BOB] you can
[Branwyn (Lisa)] capt probably wants to go
[Kaz] I can heal up Imari and Bran and even Indigo if we can wait.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] have to think of spells for the day
[Kaz] I can heal them up anyway, just won't have any spells for the trip home.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we get some healing over night don't we Bob?
[BOB] yes
[Kaz] we should, yes
[BOB] Foriso Fairhand's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 21 (2) - Lightly Wounded
[BOB] Branwyn's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 11 (2) - Moderately Wounded
[BOB] Imari's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 24 (2) - Moderately Wounded
[BOB] Miranda's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 19 (1) - Unharmed
[BOB] Indigo's Current Hit Points: adjusted to 20 (2) - Lightly Wounded
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we're looking better
[BOB] Kristelle XP award: 50. Next level in 3191.
[BOB] Branwyn XP award: 100. Next level in 1026.
[BOB] Imari XP award: 100. Next level in 11673.
[BOB] Miranda XP award: 100. Level-up!
[BOB] Indigo XP award: 100. Next level in 3069.
[BOB] and that tidies all but the roleplayer of the ngith up
[Kaz] Imari and Bran would both still benefit from an orison apiece
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so is Miranda now an official henchman?
[BOB] will make that final decision next week
[BOB] let Kaz think about it
[BOB] and then Kristelle can make an offer
[Kaz] If she is, Bob, isn't there some limit to what her level can be?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] no chance John wants to come back?
[BOB] she has to be one level below Kristelle
