[BOB] so what is the plan for your swamp adventure?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (look for a skiff weren't we?)
[Death] not die?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (that too)
[BOB] so talk to me
Kaz] is receiving the map Marsh Area 1...
Kaz] has received the map Marsh Area 1.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I think we should head over to where the fishermen are and see if we can borrow a skiff)
[Kaz] I thought we were going to try to find a skiff
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (too many can't swim)
[Kaz] and then take the waterways as little as possible
[Death] i can swim
[Death] in my armor
[BOB] so heading NW or SE to look for a skiff?
[BOB] and the scale is correct, so you coudl just wade across some of those spaces
[BOB] want you to be cautious but not totally paranoid
[Kaz] west leads out of the estates, doesn't it?
Death] is receiving the map Marsh Area 1...
Death] has received the map Marsh Area 1.
[BOB] and you will have to examine the banks for tracks at some point
[BOB] and yes, to the NW eventually will be the battlefield area and out of the Estates
[BOB] but not in this immediate area
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I don't have new map)
[BOB] Marsh Area 1
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thank you)
[BOB] Combat has begun!
[BOB] ] ROUND: 0
[BOB] Combat has finished.
[BOB] sorry wrong button
[Kaz] Lisa, you can double-click on Branwyn's name and get the new map
[Kaz] rather, the correct map
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh! thanks!)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Why don't we go whichever way is closer? Does it matter as long as we get the skiff?)
[BOB] both are equally close is why I asked
[BOB] you do not know anyone in either direction
[BOB] just that there are buildings in those directions
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (let's go SE unless anyone else has a preference)
[Death] i'm sure it'll matter, but not in a way we'll know
[Kaz] No preference and I'm fine with SE
[BOB] ok, so walking along to the southeastern edges of the swamp area
[BOB] after about an hour or so you come to a couple of small wooden buildings, well weathered
[BOB] ] Time of Day: 08:00 AM. Day 9 See ___ de, Spe {Early Fall} 9th, 338 SKR.
[Kaz] and all of a sudden, A GIANT GORILLA EATS INDIGO!! OH NOES!
[BOB] ] Time of Day: 09:00 AM. Day 9 See ___ de, Spe {Early Fall} 9th, 338 SKR.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not again!)
[Kaz] *innocent whistling*
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[BOB] you see two flat skiffs on the top of one of the buildings
[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.
Kristelle (Kaz)] calls out
[BOB] they appear to be tied down with rope
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Hello, is anyone here?
[BOB] no answer, crickets and frogs answer
[Death] let's just take 'em
[Death] we're on lord's business
Branwyn (Lisa)] grabs another cricket and sticks it in her pouch for good measure
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Maybe there is somewhere we can leave a note?
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((*settles in for a good conversation with a frog*))
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Hrm
[BOB] there is a door
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Perhaps you could leave a note and I could leave a 'note'
[BOB] is closed and tied shut
[Death] i doubt the owners can read
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Probably not
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We'll just bring it back when we're done
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Should we investigate the building?
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((that's why I said I could leave a 'note' - Kristelle can't read either. She would simply draw crude pictures to make her point.))
[Death] we take ur boat
[Death] we bring bak
[Death] if no ded
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol - that'll work)
[BOB] frogs croak, crickets chirp
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo, can you cut the ropes on the skiffs?
[BOB] he will need a boost, they are on the roof
[Kristelle (Kaz)] hadn't we better try to untie them, first?
[BOB] about 8-10 feet up
[Indigo (Lisa)] (sigh)
[Kristelle (Kaz)] I don't want to cut the rope if we don't have to.
[Indigo (Lisa)] (thought cutting would be easier than untying, but be my guest)
[Kristelle (Kaz)] We don't have rope to replace it with
[BOB] anyone who has rope use can untie them
Kristelle (Kaz)] looks around for something sturdy to stand on
[Death] the skiffs are on the roof?
[BOB] Humans can reach them just from standing next to them
[BOB] just too tall for a halfling
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((boggles))
[Death] fuck that. cut the rope. stupid people
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Sure, I'm a human and I can reach something on a 10' roof! :D ))
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Let's cut the rope close to the knots, then.
[BOB] grins, the knots to untie you can
Kristelle (Kaz)] uses the blade on her poleax to sever the knots.
[BOB] ok
[BOB] rope parts with a bit of tugging
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((should someone get onto the roof to help lower the skiff?))
[BOB] you can just jump up and pull it off
[BOB] they are just slid onto the roof
Kristelle (Kaz)] jumps up and pulls a skiff off the roof
[BOB] it is fairly light, about 50 pounds or so
[BOB] seems to be pretty sturdy
[Indigo (Lisa)] (any oars around?)
[BOB] large flat open bottom
[BOB] no oars
[BOB] would be poled along
[Death] who's got a banjo?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (do we have a pole?)
[BOB] none visible around
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((any windows on the buildings?))
[BOB] no windows
[Death] pizza!
Kristelle (Kaz)] looks around for any long tree limbs that might just happen to be lying around for no particular reason.
[BOB] no limbs around these parts, but you could strip a tree alogn the swamp easily enough
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so look for a tree or break into the house?)
[Kristelle (Kaz)] This should do the trick for now. Let's go and see what we can use for a pole, over in the swamp.
[Death] use the poleaxe
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((unless anyone wants to fight to break in))
[Death] then you have weapon in hand
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((why don't we use the spear? :p))
[Death] cuz it's prettier
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (door was tied with rope, right? should be easy enough if we wanted to)
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Kristelle is not using her weapon as a pole.))
[BOB] nods at tied shut

Guy] has received the map Base Map.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((yay!))
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((I feel that borrowing the skiff is one thing, breaking in to the shack is something entirely different.))
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (maybe it belongs to stone guy - he'd want us to break in)
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((that's a possibility too))
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we won't take anything that isn't a pole)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hi Guy!
[Death] i hear a baby crying inside
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Guy, does Foriso have Rope Use?))
[Guy] howdy all
[Guy] umm i think so let me check
[Guy] yes he does
[BOB] so he can untie the knots
[Guy] I am back at the keyboard.
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] (((umm how did i level?)))
[BOB] (chuckles, your appraising stint earned you some adn getting awarded soem treasure and gear helped too)
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((cool))

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] (d6) [1d6=2] 2
[BOB] So after untieing the knot for the door
[BOB] the inside of the building is mostly empty
[BOB] a couple of barrels of some sort of ale
[Death] we should take that
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy) (to GM only)] ] Character sheet for Foriso Fairhand modified: Combat - Max Hit Points:: CHANGED: 25 (21).
[Death] is there a banjo?
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((no, we shouldn't))
[Death] there should be a banjo
[Death] and a straw hat?
[BOB] and a closed box perched on top of one of the barrels,
[Death] i want a straw hat and banjo
Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] starts to play Dueling Banjos
[BOB] everything inside is up on top of open boxes, to keep it about 2 to 3 feet off the floot
[BOB] floor
[BOB] no hats or banjos sorry
[BOB] you need to find a bard I guess
Kristelle (Kaz)] looks around for anything even vaguely pole-like
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((a bard from the hills. lol))
[BOB] not a thing
[Death] what's in the box?
Branwyn (Lisa)] looks at box thinking about opening it
Branwyn (Lisa)] opens box
[BOB] two metal fishing hooks, one made of bone and some feathers
[BOB] plus some thread
[Death] yup. this must be the fisher guy's hut of useless to us.
Kristelle (Kaz)] ponders a moment.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Anyone want to go fishing while we're out there? Should we take these along?
[Kristelle (Kaz)] I don't know if stuff to make lures would help us.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] We could bring it, just in case, though. It's not heavy.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((aren't there more buildings around here? I thought you said multiple.))
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] we can always use it to catch dinner
Branwyn (Lisa)] hands box to Kristelle
[BOB] there is a second small building like this one, but no skiffs on top
[Death] i don't think we need to try fishing
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We should probably go see if anyone is next door
[Kristelle (Kaz)] We should probably check the other building, just in case there is something there we could use for a pole.
[BOB] door tied shut like this one was
[BOB] Foriso makes short work of that
[BOB] inside similar that everyting is up on boxes to keep it off the floor
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (any poles?)
[BOB] no barrels in here, but an open crate that looks like it was meant to transport soemthing but is empty now
[BOB] no poles
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Looks like we need to find a tree then
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] wonder what they were carrying around
[Kristelle (Kaz)] I have no idea.
[BOB] foriso can make an intuition check
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((only Foriso?))
[BOB] nods
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ooo
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ] Foriso Fairhand: INU check: (d20) [1d20=20] 20 - ROLL FAILED against 13!!

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((that was just a practice roll...))
[BOB] ok
[BOB] so moving on
[BOB] who is dragging/carrying the skiff?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Indigo can help - can he do it alone?)
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((I should be able to carry it. How much does it weigh?))
[BOB] is only 50 punds not that heavy
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (maybe Indigo is better since you will be tracking)
[BOB] is about 8 foot long, 4 foot wide, large flat like a big dish
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but he can drag it?)
[BOB] sure
[BOB] not like he is dragging it over rocks or uphill
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((i can help carry it as well
[BOB] you can make it back tot hat point on the map easily enough

[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((lol))

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (hmmm... will not comment)
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((/dances... oh, wrong pole))
[BOB] Ok, so moving on
[Death] nah. we'll be stuck on this one for a couple more comments
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((I think we should try the approach that Lisa and I talked about last week. Just to show you guys what we were thinking...))
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((ok now im scared))
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((that would require us being in the skiff the least amount of time))
[BOB] Barb tonight you can catch up on things, and start coming up with a character, should be able to fit you in next week I think
[Barb] sounds like a plan... i need to learn the software all over again! :(
[BOB] any ideas? Thief? Bard? are you going with the female Halfling idea?

[BOB (to Kaz only)] The catoblepas is a bizarre, loathsome creature that inhabits dismal swamps and marshes. Its most terrifying features are its large bloodshot eyes, from which emanate a deadly ray. The body of the catoblepas is like that of a large, bloated buffalo, and its legs are stumpy, like those of a pygmy elephant or a hippopotamus. Its long, snakey tail is swift and strong, and can move with blinding speed. The head of the catoblepas is perched upon a long, weak neck, and would be much like that of a warthog except that the catoblepas is uglier.
[BOB (to Kaz only)] Those who close their eyes or act with their eyes averted can still be affected by the deathray, but a saving throw vs. death magic is allowed. Since the neck of the creature is very weak, it has only a 25% chance of raising its head and using the deathray on subsequent rounds. If the catoblepas and its target are both relatively still, this increases by 15% per melee round. If the catoblepas is forced to follow quick motions it has only a 10% chance of raising its head.

[Imari (Death)] "The god of magic surely smiles upon you."

[BOB] would have killed the fisherman if not already stone

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Now that it is safe, others can come and get him
Kristelle (Kaz)] nods at Branwyn
[Kristelle (Kaz)] If we can at least get him to more solid ground, they will be able to find him.

[BOB] you should discuss among your selves what you want to do
[BOB] I need to check on a couple of things
[BOB] then will be able to answer questions
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Well, what do we wish to do?
[Imari (Death)] we're a mercenary group with a commanding officer
[Imari (Death)] i think we wait until we get orders
Lisa] is receiving the map Base Map...
Lisa] has received the map Base Map.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] We need to make a decision. Our contract is up and our commanding officer is not here.
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] What about using the goblin tunnels for ourselves?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I agree. I don't want to sign a new contract
[Kristelle (Kaz)] If we wish to stay at the keep, we will either need to negotiate a new contract, or see if there is space for us to rent.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The tunnels would take a lot of work and we'd be bent over all the time
[Kristelle (Kaz)] I did work on the entrance, to hide it. We could use it in an emergency.
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] If we are allowed to use them then we can always expand it for ourselves
[Kristelle (Kaz)] We could go and stay comfortably at the farmhouse until we can get orders again.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] My thoughts exactly

[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] i do agree with Imari on one thing though we did sign up as mercenaries,we should wait and see what our next orders are going to be
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Medoro can easily tell the Corporal where we are to be found.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If we can stay here without committing ourselves to another contract that would be fine with me
[Kristelle (Kaz)] We are still within the Estates, we simply wouldn't be in the Keep any more.

[BOB] the Corporal clears hsi throat
[BOB] Fledglings, this is Sergant Snowfoot, she has returned with some news for us
[BOB] (prepare for the chat room to be filled)
[BOB] ] Sergent Snowfoot looks over the group. Congradulations Fledglings. Corporal Hortswaff here has done a good job of providing you with a strong base to build on. I am very happy to see that you are all flourishing and have become strong members of the Dragonslayer Company. I want to also pass on these ribbons of comendation for your actions at Polina Ridge. Captain Lukincha has also authorized you each a promotion from Private to Private First Class. I have talked with many members of the Dragonslayers Company after the disaster at Polina Ridge. We lost almost one third of the Company that day. The old dragon himself Floyfisk has left to take two units with him to a Grand Conclave in North Hoarbrite and try to find who hired Libellula to attack us. I am taking Corporal Hortswaff with me to join the other senior staff so he can personally receive his own medal for his actions that day. That is the good news for you. However it has been determined that overstepped your boundries, along with the Corporal, in agreeing to a contract here at the Jistille Estates. The circumstances at the moment you agreed are admittedly understandable from another's point of view but not mine. You have an oath to fufill as a member of the Dragonslayer Company and you did not keep to the Mercenary Unit Code. I am mindful of your youthfulness and inexperience at that time and the fact that you have grown considerably in the short time afterwards. The arrangement seems to have been beneficial both to your Fledgling Squad and to the Jistille Estates which does indicate you were not violating the Code in a way to only enrich your selves. Keeping all of this in mind I have decided to create a new Unit for you as part of the Dragonslayer Company, you will be the Dragonslayer Company Detatched. This will keep you as part of the Company and will allow you a bit more freedom as you freelance your services as you see fit. I expect reports on your progress and you will attend a future Conclave when you are requested.

[BOB] Ok
[BOB] so in and out of character
[BOB] options? choices? discussion?
[BOB] It is getting into Fall
[Imari (Death)] i would ask if snowfoot has anywhere she wants us to go before we just randomly pick a direction
[BOB] not many people adventure in the winter
[BOB] you could stay here and train if you have the money
[BOB] I do have an adventure for you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it's only early fall)
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] id say stay and train
[BOB] where you can earn some loot
[BOB] that will only take a handful of game days
[BOB] adn then you can stay home and train through the winter
[BOB] but do not want to just decide that for you
[BOB] want to hear from everyone what they think
Lisa] has left the game on Fri May 07 21:36:43 EDT 2010
[BOB] and the rest of the treasure to divide up
Lisa] has joined the game on Fri May 07 21:37:11 EDT 2010
Lisa] is receiving the map Base Map...
Lisa] has received the map Base Map.
[BOB] the Priests should be thything 10% to their churches
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((well, there are still the plate, chalice, and the gold/ruby ring for Foriso to appraise))
[BOB] which means you need to figure out a way of dividing up what you do find
[Imari (Death)] do the barbarians really have set churches?
[BOB] and yes to Kaz, Foriso still has work to do
[BOB] Imari does not have a church per se, but has people to help support
[BOB] items to destroy
[BOB] rather than hoard
[BOB] etc
[Imari (Death)] eh? items to destroy?
[Imari (Death)] i should destroy some items as a tithe?
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] so 3 things to appraise?
[BOB] barbarians in general are not fond of magic items
[BOB] you can take your share of the loot and dispose of it in a manner fitting for the church
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((Yes Guy))
[BOB] and more than that Guy
[BOB] in order that you found them
[BOB] short sword (Foriso is using)
[BOB] gold ring
[BOB] book of common prayers for Cogse
[BOB] gold chalice
[BOB] gold plate
[BOB] those all need appraising still
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ok ill apprais in the order you said then
[BOB] ok
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ] Foriso Fairhand: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=5] 5 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ] Foriso Fairhand: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=19] 19 - ROLL FAILED against 16!!
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ] Foriso Fairhand: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=4] 4 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!
[BOB (to Guy only)] the short sword overall is work 72 Gp with the ruby being worth 70 gp by itself
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ] Foriso Fairhand: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=6] 6 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!
[BOB (to Guy only)] no clue on the ring
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ] Foriso Fairhand: Appraising check: (d20) [1d20=15] 15 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!
[BOB (to Guy only)] prayer book is worth 200 gp to the church
[BOB (to Guy only)] chalice is worth 25 gp to the church
[Imari (Death)] so should i get rid of the wood armor ring?
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] Wonder if the church would be willing to pay us 200 gold for the book?
[BOB (to Guy only)] the gold plate is worth 100 gp to the church
[BOB] and no to Mike
[Kristelle (Kaz)] ((can he attempt an appraisal more than once on an item? Like, can he try again when he levels?))
[BOB] you can keep limited magic items
[BOB] especially ones that pertain to your sphere of influence
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] between them the chalice and the plate might fetch us 125 gold if the churhc will pay it
[Kristelle (Kaz)] Do you think they'd give us that much, Foriso?
[BOB] and you have created the totem for Indigo also
[Imari (Death)] yes, but that's not magic
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] thats what the book is worth whether they will pay it is another story
[Imari (Death)] just rp
[BOB] yes but it counts as spreadign the word doing your share for the church
[Indigo (Lisa)] (Indigo feels protected)
[BOB] which is what is important
[BOB] and for Guy you know that you can get those prices from the church, or hand it over to the Lord for him to turn over, the group earns the XP either way when you turn them over,
[BOB] but the Lord will not pay you in GP for them
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so let's not do that)
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((yeah but its more fun to RP it this way))
[BOB] smile
[BOB] as always is up to you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I want the money :)
[BOB] and jsut to be clear I have on my list the Gold ring you found in Digging Deeper with the ruby setting you have not been able to appraise yet
[BOB] and teh Mace you found in Green Acres you do not know the full details yet on
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((not yet))
[BOB] all other items you have gotten what you can so far
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((and yes i know i didnt mention how much my sword was worth thats because i have no intention of getting rid of it))
[BOB] grins
[BOB] just so you know
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] ((not bad i only failed 1 appraising roll))
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not bad at all!)
[BOB] so next is the question of the farm house
[BOB] are you planning on turning that into your home base for now?
[Kaz] Well, we'd presumably need the Corporal's permission for that.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I would like to)
[Kaz] I would also like to
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] even if we do id still like to ask lord mosskin about granting us the goblin tunnels
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (okay)
[BOB] you can for all of the above, just want to hear from everyone on ideas
[BOB] what you would like to do
[BOB] Barb you ccan roll dice too

[BOB] and so for the group, you are interested in going on the adventure next? earn some more treasure to help pay for things?
[BOB] and what about dividing things up now and in the future?
[Imari (Death)] sure

[Kristelle (Kaz)] first of all, how much is training going to cost?
[BOB] average training is 700 GP for a skill that takes 7 weeks to learn
[BOB] faster is more expensive

[BOB] now you can roll 1 d4
[Barb] ] (1d4) [1d4=1] 1
[BOB] Mike and Guy and Lisa
[BOB] do you have any preferences for dividing up the treasure?
[BOB] traditionally we have done it by shares
[Imari (Death)] shares sounds right
[Kaz] I am back at the keyboard.
[Kristelle (Kaz)] sorry, back
[BOB] do you want to do that before you pay out for trainign for everyone?
[BOB] or afterwards?
[BOB] and same question for you too now Kaz
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so we pay for our own training out of our shares?)
[BOB] you can decide that Lisa
[Imari (Death)] i'll let everyone else decide. it's time for me to log out. night all.
[BOB] pay out of the group fund first for training
[BOB] then divide out the remainder
[BOB] night Mike
[BOB] or divide out then each pay for their own
[Kristelle (Kaz)] night Mike
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] night mike
[Barb] night mike
Death] has left the game on Fri May 07 22:06:08 EDT 2010
[BOB] two things that make a difference
[BOB] Thieves have a lot of training
[BOB] so they will need more money
[BOB] one way or the other
[BOB] plus the Mage will want money to research spells
[BOB] pay for a lab a library etc
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We all need money
[BOB] this si true
[Kristelle (Kaz)] The fighters need armour and weapons... the clerics have tithing...
[BOB] and I do not want anyone to argue over things, I think that if you talk about it now
[BOB] will help keep things going smoothly
[Kristelle (Kaz)] I don't disagree, Bob
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] why not just keep a group fund and a training fund?
[Kaz] a training fund might be a fair idea
[BOB] Barb your totals are a 16 a 15 a 14 a 10 adn 9 and 9
[Kaz] Because one person's training benefits the whole group
[BOB] yes to the idea of training helping everyone
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] hey bob shouldnt one of those be for her main attribute?
[BOB] yes
[BOB] I would put the 16 into Dex
[BOB] and go from there
[BOB] after you assign Barb
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] well i mean like how we did at the start?
[BOB] then you get the racial bonuses
[BOB] yes to Guy this is how everyone started, she got a 1 on her d4 roll so moved one from one of the 10's and increased a 15 to 16
[BOB] Guy you have the Players Handbook there? can help Barb with the Halfling bonuses?
[Kaz] Lisa, what do you think of the training fund idea?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Not sure
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] halflings get +1 to dex and -1 to str
[BOB] nods
[Branwyn (Lisa)] how do we decide how much goes into training fund and how much we get?
[BOB] I will go find a suitable icon for her
[BOB] and let the group talk about ideas
[Kaz] I think we'd need an example of how much training costs
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Bob said about 700 gp
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] why not split into 2 shares one share goes into a training fund and the other share we can figure out what to do with
[BOB] ] For Barb moved 16'03".
[BOB] Nods, the average traingin will be 700 Gp for 7 weeks
[Kaz] well, I think 700 gp is a ridiculous amount of money for this level
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so half of entire take goes into training and other half gets divvied up?
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] yeah
[Kaz] we can have one person train for all of our current money plus selling an item or two
[BOB] can think of it like a blacksmith you would train an apprentice it would take 14 or 21 weeks to do so (almost a year) and cost the apprentice 200+ gp which is repaid in work over the next 2-4 years
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Foriso's first training did not cost anything... yet
[BOB] it cost
[BOB] grins
[BOB] just not a known cost yet
[Kaz] yours did, by getting a gremlin, Lisa.
[BOB] just like Imari now owes a favor
[BOB] Branwyn had to get the gremlin
[BOB] etc
[BOB] and do you like that icon Barb?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so next training could be the same situation?
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] bob are you referring to the comment my trainer made about my skills?
[BOB] yes to Lisa not another gremlin but have to do another task, etc.
[BOB] quite often the group will do a favor for someone in exchange for a favor

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can only look to training nwp - can't learn a new spell yet. So mine would most likely cost
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I was talking about Foriso going back to his trainer
[Kaz] I am eligible for a wp and an nwp. I haven't had ANY training yet.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] he got his first for just a promise at a later date
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I think Kristelle and Foriso should get at least one of your two slots done first
[Barb] driveway buzzer is going off brb
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] i dont have any weapon or nonweapon training to do
[Kaz] Well, it also depends if there's someone here who could train me.
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] i just have thief training
[Branwyn (Lisa)] you have 2 though, right?
[Kaz] me?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Guy - 2 thief training sessions
[Kaz] ahh
[BOB] Ok, so Barb your stats are now correct for what you rolled
[BOB] now you get to add in the Halfling bonuses,
[BOB] Guy can help with that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'm sure we can find someone close for your training. There's got to be a fighter or ranger somewhere close by
[BOB] and then from the site the different modifiers
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Could the corporal do it?
[Kaz] Well, I think it depends on what I want to learn.
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] yeah 2 levels of training
[Kaz] I said before that I have to make some decisions of what to learn, and could use advice (mainly from Mike and Guy, but generally from everyone))
[Kaz] got nothing but crickets.
[BOB] grins
[BOB] that happens when you want men to make decisions
[Kaz] I know jack-all about leveling a fighter and what the best benefits are.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I know nothing useful :(
[BOB] you do too
[Kaz] I'm not asking them to make decisions, just to help me
[BOB] both of you know what you want to try and accomplish
[Kaz] You do so, Lisa. Silly girl.
[BOB] Lisa branwyn has the most to spend money on actually
[BOB] every new spell you learn costs money
[Kaz] Unless we loot a spellbook :D
[BOB] Foriso learnign new thief skill levels will cost more right now
[BOB] grins,
[BOB] yes to Kaz
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy) (to BOB only)] i knew i could find it you had us roll 2d6 and add it to 12 for our main att
[BOB] (ahhhh well she rolled 2 6's for it anyway, grins)
[Barb] #$#%$birds
[BOB] grins at Barb
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] lol
[Kaz] Lisa, here's my dilemma
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] how much more?
[BOB] Barb's stats are good right now
[BOB] just needs help with the halfing bonus
[BOB] then the actual details
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] is she a hairfeet,tallfellow or stout?
[BOB] and you and her can discuss if you want to weight your thief skills in different areas, etc
[Branwyn (Lisa)] what dilemma?
[BOB] no difference in them for me Guy, they all get the same bonuses
[Kaz] for my wp slot, I could learn weapon of choice, which gives me +1 to attack rolls, or I could learn expertise which would give an extra attack every other round. OR I could insteal learn the Close Quarter Fighting NWP, which takes 2 slots (which means I wouldn't get a wp)
[Kaz] And I don't know which would be best to do. Or maybe I could learn Endurance, which also takes 2 slots.
[Kaz] (Endurance would prevent fatigue from hitting me so quickly)
[BOB] Kaz I would not chose Close Quarter Fighting
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] well stouts can tell if a passage is an up or down grade with a 75% accuracy is why i was asking
[Kaz] No, Bob?
[Kaz] okay
[BOB] ahh to Guy and I would say is up to you and Barb about that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I wouldn't either really
[BOB] Endurance is an idea for you Kaz
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I like that Indigo gets those 3 hits on even rounds
[Kaz] cqf can be really helpful. it all depends.
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] thats the only real difference between them
[BOB] nods at Guy, and you can explain to Barb about splitting the stats
[BOB] which will help which stat more
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] i have no clue about that mike had to help me
[BOB] kaz, I think the CQF would be more towards dungeon crawling or weaponless fighting
[BOB] and you are not in those modes
[Kaz] I also thought the extra attack every other round would be good. But that +1 to attack rolls... it's attractive, especially when I hit like crap.
[BOB] and Guy it is just up by 1 or 2 and the other stat down by the same
[Kaz] ok Bob
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] cqf would also be better for a rogue
[BOB] and I like your thinking on those weapon proficiencies Kaz
[BOB] and of course you can also increase an existing skill
[Kaz] well, I can't have Endurance AND a weapon prof, so I'll have to decide one or the other.
[BOB] to earn a +1 in it
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Doesn't your hit percentage go up as you go up in level? It would get better anyway?
[BOB] survival for example
[BOB] and yes to Lisa on that
[Kaz] do you mean the THAC0 going down?
[BOB] fighters get a +1 to thac0 every level
[BOB] unlike mage who get it once every 6 levels
[Kaz] Guy, it's taken HOW MANY years? But I think I'm finally understanding what it is!!
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] cool
[Kaz] I know mine gets better every level, but that doesn't help much when you have us fighting stuff with an AC 4.
[Kaz] but anyway...
[Barb] so guy, are you a stout?
[BOB] chuckles, wait till you are fighting things with an AC of -4
[Foriso Fairhand (Guy)] im a half elf
[BOB] Lisa is running Indigo who is the other Halfling Barb
[Barb] sorry
[BOB] no worries
[Barb] is she a stout?
[BOB] no test until next week ;P
[Guy] id say go with stout Barb
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't know what Indigo is - I adopted him
[BOB] LOL
[Branwyn (Lisa)] where does it say that?
[BOB] he is a Hairfoot
[Barb] thats what i was wanting to be, but didnt want 2 of us
[Branwyn (Lisa)] good to know
[Guy] theres a couple of bonuses that you could use
[BOB] I did not bother to put it on his sheet
[BOB] ] For Barb moved 10'08".
[Guy] whats yours constitution barb and indigos as welllisa?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo's is 14
[BOB] Indigo does have all the right bonuses, but please double check the extra's Guy
[BOB] I mean I did apply the dex etc tot he stats,
[BOB] and so Training
[Barb] my con is 10
[BOB] the idea of a trainign Fund
[Guy] indigo should be getting a +4 bonus to his poison, wandstaves rods and spell saving throw
[Kaz] Well, here's another thought about the training fund idea...
[BOB] Lisa how would you adjust that idea to fit your thoughts?
[BOB] and Guy those should go in Temp Modifiers
[Guy] barb you get a +3 bonus to those saves
[Kaz] When Branwyn had to get a gremlin to pay for her training, we all helped. How is that different?
[Guy] why temp?
[BOB] for each of them
[Barb] what saves?
[BOB] so that it is accounted for when they go up in level
[BOB] and they change their saves
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It's not but that was also a Medoro task - we would have run into them anyway
[BOB] they only have to look at the chart
[Guy] thats actually based on their con
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we just would have killed it probably
[BOB] yes to Guy
[Branwyn (Lisa)] what was your idea?
[Guy] its a halfling bonus
[BOB] I think temp mods is the way to go
[BOB] and a note elsewhere explaining it
[Kaz] But we didn't know it was a Medoro task.
[Kaz] We knew you needed a gremlin and we were going to help you find one.
[Kaz] It was only after that we realised they were in the 'haunted house'
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'm not opposed to training fund
[Kaz] and had it not turned out to be the haunted house, we still would have helped you to track down and capture one.
[Guy] ok the problem will be with the poison save
[Kaz] I just think it's the same thing, really.
[Barb (to GM only)] ] Character sheet for For Barb modified: Racial Abilities - ADDED: ** New **.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] true - like if we would have to go bird chasing for Imari's training we would have
[BOB] yes to Guy will have to pay attention to the options when that comes up
[Guy (to GM only)] ] Character sheet for Indigo modified: Temporary Modifiers - Paralysis, Poison or Death Save: (PPDTM) : CHANGED: +4 (null). Rod, Staff or Wand Save: (RSWTM) : CHANGED: +4 (null). Magical Spell Save: (MSTM) : CHANGED: +4 (null).
[Branwyn (Lisa)] or broken Foriso's trainer out of jail!
[Kaz] What do you think would make it better? We can tweak out somehting that works well for everyone
[Kaz] And I agree with those things, yes
[Branwyn (Lisa)] which I think we still might have to do later
[BOB] It seems that you both agree that there should be some fund that found treasure goes into to pay for training for everyone, but there should also be money given out to everyone to spend on things as they wish
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The training fund sounds like a good idea now when we all have so much to do
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Miranda will also be needing training soon I believe
[BOB] and the idea of the training fun is not strictly "pay a teacher" but in costs of helping each other become better
[Kaz] Yes, Bob, I think everyone would agree that we should have our own funds, too.
[Guy (to GM only)] ] Character sheet for Indigo modified: Notes - CHANGED.
[Kaz] I think she will, too.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But I'd just like to think that at some point when training needs don't come up so often that we might relax a bit on the 50% idea
[Kaz] Bob, any clue on when Beth will be back?
[BOB] have not heard from her
[Guy] Lisa I added a new note page to Indigo
[Kaz] :(
[BOB] Heard from Lorie
[Kaz] Lisa, I definitely agree with that.
[BOB] she is reading teh site, seeing if she is interested
[Kaz] Oh?
[Kaz] Cool!
[BOB] and I agree with Lisa but I would say more like 90% for now, then step it down in the future to as low as 10% into a training fund
[Guy] Barb halflings get a bonus to saves versus certain things
[BOB] the group fund can also pay for raise dead
[BOB] stone to flesh
[BOB] etc
[BOB] grins
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That would be nice to have
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I agree with that
[Kaz] Yes, that is definitely a good idea
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Guy - Indigo has infravision??
[Guy (to BOB only)] would 10 be close enough to 10 and a half?
[Barb] its been a long long time.... will take a little while to come back to me
[Guy] yes he does
[BOB] yes to Guy
[Branwyn (Lisa)] wow! Indigo is amazing
[BOB] and there is the Vision page to check for that
[Guy] 'theres now 3 of us with infravision
[BOB] is not infravision
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so I have to add these to his sheet?
[Kaz] It'll come back, Barb. And in the meantime, you're not alone anyway. :D
[BOB] or at least it is not quite the same as the book
[Guy] well infravision as its listed in the players handbook
[Barb] thanks
[BOB] and we are very happy to have you back Barb
[BOB] you will pick it up quickly enough
[Guy] i just used the players handbook wording for it
[BOB] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.ExtraordinarySenses
[Branwyn (Lisa)] thanks for looking that up Guy
[BOB] the tecnical term is Ultravision
[Branwyn (Lisa)] details, details
[Guy] ok ill change it then
[BOB] grins
[BOB] so Kaz
[Guy (to GM only)] ] Character sheet for Indigo modified: Notes - CHANGED.
[BOB] you know what is in the party pack right now
[BOB] in terms of coin
[BOB] you can determine how much each character should get
[BOB] one last wrinkle to hash out
[BOB] henchmen
[BOB] do you want to pay them out as shares? or pay the main character and let them pay out what they want
[BOB] has been PCs get 2 shares, Henchmen get 1 share
[BOB] that is how XP works anyway
[BOB] if you want to change it for money you can
[BOB] right now Lisa is affected
[BOB] but John is bringin in someone very soon
[Kaz] well, they are fighting as part of the group
[Kaz] they dn't go through any less than the PCs do
[BOB] nods
[Kaz] In fact, poor Indigo has been through more... getting swallowed by the Ankheg
[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol
[Kaz] Lisa, what do you think?
[BOB] well he did not actually GO THROUGH the ankheg
[Kaz] No, he didn't.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ick!
[Kaz] Thank goodness.
[BOB] grins
[BOB] I bring this up from past experience also Lisa and Kaz, right now I know your group will be fine with things
[Guy (to GM only)] ] Character sheet for Foriso Fairhand modified: Notes - CHANGED.
[BOB] but if Guy decides to add in 6 henchmen to suck up all the gold, what will you do?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would be happy if he could get 1 share to our 2 but would understand if others did not agree since money is tight right now
[Kaz] Well, Guy COULD be that much of a prick if he wanted to be...
[Branwyn (Lisa)] kill guy in his sleep?
[Kaz] but I know where he sleeps.
[Guy] huh
[Kaz] See that? Great minds!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol
[Guy] umm guy has no plans on bringing in a henchman anyways
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And Branwyn could put him to sleep
[Kaz] Well, his armour came out of the party's money, right?
[Kaz] And/or a sword?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes and eventually he will need training too :(
[Kaz] Yes, he will.
[Guy] hows it going barb?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes - was not too expensive
[BOB] everyone will need training for the foreseeable future
[BOB] and when everyone is all caught up
[Branwyn (Lisa)] reminds me - we need to pick up Indigo's chain mail
[BOB] someoen will need to have trainign again
[Kaz] How about, one henchman per person can benefit from the party fund. After that, the PC is responsible?
[BOB] is why it is good to work otu now
[Guy] im still needing more training in my thief skills
[Branwyn (Lisa)] that sounds more than fair
[BOB] that makes good sense Kaz, each PC gets 2 or 3 shares depending
[BOB] and you will have a party fund to pay for training, raise dead, etc
[Guy] next lvl i get weapon and NWP proficincies as well as thief training
[Kaz] not sure what you mean on the 2 or 3 shares
[BOB] grins, Guy will have 6 trainings to pay for
[BOB] 2 shares if you do not have any henchmen
[BOB] 3 shares if you have 1 or more henchmen
[Kaz] ahh
[BOB] it is up to the PC to pay out to the various Henchmen
[Kaz] I think I'm going to just get a weapon prof this time. At level 6 I'll get Endurance, which costs 2 slots anyway, and then I'll still have one WP slot to train.
[Guy] umm barb?
[Kaz] does that make sense Bob?
[Barb] yes
[Guy] you have a dex of 716????
[BOB] yes to Kaz, with the idea that you are not actually starting training yet
[BOB] she has a dex of 16
[BOB] I see what happened
[BOB] you have the orginal stats back in the temp modifiers Barb
[BOB] Guy you have to take those out again
[BOB] then will be ok
[BOB] I thought I had cleared her temp mods
[Kaz] I know I'm not, but I won't be level 6 for at least two months.
[BOB] grins
[Kaz] Maybe more.
[BOB] never know
[Kaz] Probably more.
[BOB] but most likely not
[BOB] afterall we will be taking most of June off
