[BOB] free is the new cheap

[Death] and dirty

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] (hehe)

[BOB] so on the map you are on there is a "What has happened so far" note

[Death] if he's going to have someone plugging into his router, he wants someone who won't give him a virus

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I do hope someone remembers what I was going to do and looks inside my cricket cage or whatever sized room Kylia gave me

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Hey...I had my shots...well most of them

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I believe in safe routing...

[Death] do you use protection?

[Death] keep a firewall on for every connection

[BOB] abstinence is the only way to be sure

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Usually....but sometimes in the heat of surfing, I forget

[BOB] I reduced the scale quite a bit

[BOB] that section of Glass/Ice is about 5 miles across

[Death] we're at grasslands?

[BOB] you can make it in a single nights journey most likely

[BOB] you are at A

[Death] i thought we were in the dessert

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] That is the cursed area

[Death] you can make 5 miles in under 2 hours if it's flat.

[BOB] the "grasslands" are where the dunes are not pure sand but have oasis

[Death] as i'd immagine glass is

[BOB] you shall see

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Well glass can be jagged also sharp like razors

[BOB] the temple that they talked about is that small square on the edge of the cliffs

[Antarias (Death)] "Well, I suppose we should get going toward that temple. It sounds like if Fin ended up here, that's where he'd go."

[john2] Do our guides have a shop where we can buys swords and magic items?

[BOB] no

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] So Bob even though I went to sleep with my stuff on planning on going through the portal I have nothing on correct?

[Finglas (Death)] "Well they were useless."

[john2] majic carpet

[Finglas (Death)] "Left us with nothing, not even proper clothes."

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Well how about a dagger?

[BOB] should I put that note here into the chat room?

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] No

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Just remind people it is there

[Finglas (Death)] "I suppose with the lack of options we could head toward that temple and hope they don't attack us on sight."

[john2] Frit, tisk tisk tisk

[Finglas (Death)] "Come on, Moirra."

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Well I hope people remember I told them my plan and check on me...

[john2 (to Fritz only)] it wont matter

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] prob not...

[Finglas (Death)] ::walks to the temple::

[Finglas (Death)] what do we see?

[john2 (to Fritz only)] ant and Val will not find us, I bet my character on it

[BOB] not so fast Finglas

[BOB] the temple is miles away

[Finglas (Death)] he's a really fast walker.

[Finglas (Death)] like the squirrel in over the hedge

[john2] I still accessing our situation

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Is it day time? That means it is going to get hot correct bob?

[BOB] did you want to ask them anything else? before they leave? Paul? Rave?

[john2] Did Paul and Rave arrive the same time as Fin?

[BOB] yes, you all went through the vision

[Finglas (Death)] paul's here?

[john2] Can I borrow a phone

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I asked them for a dagger first.

[john2] can I borrow a sword?

[john2] He was

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] How will you know if the curse is removed?

[john2] as useless as he will be

[Finglas (Death)] who's with fin besides moirra?

[Finglas (Death)] in toto?

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Ask them for some dung and other things you might use for magic casting...dung is used for fireballs

[BOB] Paul, Rave, Liam, Finglas and Moirra

Vicki] has left the game on Fri May 15 19:07:49 EDT 2009

[Finglas (Death)] they won't even give fin a robe to wear?

[john2] I don't do fireballs

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] What can you tell us about Kamsa besides he tried to be a god?

[john2] Bob, can we get anything from them?

[Sarim (BOB)] I do not know anything abotu those legends, beyond that he angered the gods

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Did your brother come out here with the flail?

[Sarim (BOB)] (you will have to bargin with them)

[Sarim (BOB)] my brother never had the Flail, pointing to Finglas

[Sarim (BOB)] he must be a mighty Pharoah from the past to have it

[Finglas (Death)] "Yes. I am indeed a mighty pharoe. Can't you tell by the ears?"

[Finglas (Death)] "As a mighty pharoah, i request the use of a good bow, arrows, or at least a robe?"

[Sarim (BOB)] what do you have to trade for it?

[Finglas (Death)] "I'd rather not traipse through the desert naked."

[Finglas (Death)] "My good wishes?"

[john2] does it look like they use swords, they are a roaming band of desert wanderers?

[Sarim (BOB)] he chuckles, while you may have been mighty in the past, this evening I require more than assurances

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] "Sarim...I beseach you to look upon me with mercY. I wish I had something to trade, but I have nothing. all I ask from you is a cloak/cloth and a dagger. Please sir help us.

[Finglas (Death)] "I'm actually on a mission to help your land out by ending the curse."

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] What do you require Sarim?

[Sarim (BOB)] we have given you our food water and salt

[Finglas (Death)] "So any help you could give is like helping yourself."

[john2] I will bestow great riches on you if you assist us in our journey

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] But that is your duty. This is an Oasis.

[Sarim (BOB)] no one has braved that temple and returned whole

[Finglas (Death)] "Well, then you can say you've met the first."

[Finglas (Death)] "It will be a tale to tell the grandchildren."

[Sarim (BOB)] he shakes his head sadly, and if that is the case then tales will be told about you

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] We are trying to save your land by returning the flail. Is that payment?

[Finglas (Death)] "You met the mighty DragonSlayers, Dream walkers, and curse breakers."

[Sarim (BOB)] but I have buyers ready to pay for steel daggers and dates

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] ((deal breakers))

[Finglas (Death)] "I don't want to meet any women. At least a robe?"

[Sarim (BOB)] he looks around at his men

[Sarim (BOB)] gestures to one fo them

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I have nothing sir, but my honor...what can I offer you on my honor?

[john2] (are there any birds or at least bird wings?)

[Sarim (BOB)] he pulls out an older robe

[Sarim (BOB)] tosses it to Finglas

[Sarim (BOB)] here you can share this

[Finglas (Death)] "Thank you for the clothes." ::shrugs into the robe::

[Finglas (Death)] "At least I'll meet my insanity with clothes on now."

[Sarim (BOB)] Now we must be going

[Finglas (Death)] "Have fun."

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Not even a knife?

[Sarim (BOB)] may the fates look kindly on you

[Finglas (Death)] "Indeed."

[Sarim (BOB)] or at grant you a swift death

[Sarim (BOB)] he clucks to his camel

[Sarim (BOB)] and tugs it to go

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] well it will be swift if we can't get a dagger or knife from you

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] also leaving my friends to walk across the desert without transportation

[john2] DO I SEE A SWORD ON HIM?

[Sarim (BOB)] no

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I would have thought more of the great SArim!!

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] He had a scimitar bob

[john2] it is just one guy?

[BOB] that is on someone else now

[Finglas (Death)] "Cheerful bastard. I hope the fates leave him stuck in this god forsaken place so he dries out slowly going insane. Let's go to the temple."

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] ] Rave Starfire: Observation check: (d20) [1d20=6] 6 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!

[BOB] there are only a couple of swords and they must share them

[Finglas (Death)] ::starts walking::

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Ok Bob I look around for where they seem to have their swords and daggers kept

[BOB] tied to the outside of their robes

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] All of them?

[BOB] each has a dagger

[BOB] two have swords

[Finglas (Death)] dagger or khanjar?

[BOB] out of the 6

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] The ones they were going to sell?

[BOB] you do not see those

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I am looking for those

[BOB] there are chests on the camels

[Finglas (Death)] ::curses in elvish as he starts away::

[BOB] as they are riding away

[Finglas (Death)] "Paul, short of fighting them, there's nothing we can do."

[Finglas (Death)] "Let's go to the temple while it's still cool."

[john2] so you get my point

[john2] I can take them

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Are the chest locked?

[Finglas (Death)] "Can you?"

[BOB] how would you know ?

[Finglas (Death)] "Then do so."

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I go and check

[john2] unless my magic does not work at all

[Finglas (Death)] "But I have nothing but this amulet and my holy symbol."

[BOB] the camel shies away as you fly closer

[john2] then you are one up on me

[Finglas (Death)] "Can't even cast anything useful without my reagents."

[BOB] they look around

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I am invisible how does he know?

[BOB] the camel can smell you

[BOB] he does not know where you are

[john2] Clearly we are not ment to have anything

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Wrong...look up invisibilty It has to first feel there is a threat, then it has to roll a saving throw

[BOB] camels think everythign is a threat

[BOB] they are ornery hateful creatures

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Only if it makes it will it even know I am around, then it doesn't even automatically target me

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] To them I could be an invisible fly bob

[BOB] not targeting you at all

[john2 (to Death only)] I actual fornd two combat spells that do not require material comonent

[BOB] just spooked by you being around

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] They still have to roll a save

[john2 (to Death only)] plus I have conjur spell component

[Finglas (Death) (to john2 only)] nice. what are they?

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] to even detect me

[Finglas (Death) (to john2 only)] i've got shit all for spells with no components

[john2 (to Death only)] cloud kill, conjur air emental

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] And camels are not skittish that is one of the reasons they are better than horses

[Finglas (Death) (to john2 only)] oh man, cloud kill them to death! lol

[BOB] chuckles, you have not been near camels much,

[BOB] you can fly up to them if you want

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Hey John next time he talks about you like that I would hit him

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I tried.

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I will

[BOB] ok

[BOB] you can see that there are four chests tied to each camel

[BOB] 7 in the group overall

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I go to one of the chest on the opposite side of where the riders are positioned on their mounts

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I check to see if it is open.

[BOB] riders are just above the necks

[john2] you calling me a cammel

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] YOu said there were 6 riders and 7 camels so one is without a rider

[BOB] the chests are closed and tied to the camel, you would have to untie it first to get it open although you could try the lock

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] No your brother did

[BOB] there were 6 OTHER riders

[john2 (to Death only)] of course I have Dimention door and telepot

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Yes let me try a lock

[BOB] (1d2) [1d2=1] 1 on a 1 it is locked

[BOB] yes

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I try another one

[BOB] (1d2) [1d2=1] 1 on a 1 it is locked

[BOB] so both on that side are locked

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] ok...fine...I go and try another.

[BOB] as the camels walk with a steady pace out into the growing night

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Ok fine...who has the sword?

[BOB] what are the four of you doing ? while Rave rollows the native?

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] I will get john a sword.

[john2] is there a full moon?

[Finglas (Death) (to john2 only)] oh hell, teleport home, get our stuff, and teleport back

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] yes I will show you a full moon

[Fritz] See<<<

[john2 (to Death only)] I only have one, and I doubt it will work

[Fritz] here is a full moon

[BOB] there is no moon in the sky

[Fritz] It has a bit of hair on it but just ignore that part

[BOB] shakes my head

[BOB] so is Rave coming back or?

[john2] I yell to them, Please, we need your help just to survive

[BOB] they continue to travel farther away

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Yes since you wont even give me a chance to steal john a sword...what good is a thief when the DM won't let him be thiefy

[Kwan Sun (Vicki)] ((alright))

[BOB] we can wait

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] well nice that works...anything else that might require normal stuff for components...of course you could maybe make a spellcraft check and see if something could be an alternate component

Death] is receiving the map Desert location B...

Death] has received the map Desert location B.

[john2 (to Fritz only)] oh I have conjur spell component, pretty sure there is no material component for that

[Rave Starfire (Fritz)] Dude...that works.

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] dude that works really well.

[john2 (to Fritz only)] just waiting for a good reason to try

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] will have to use it only for emergency of course...then again. when we get to where we are going you could try and mark the spot memorize it well, then TP back and get our stuff

[Antarias (Death)] So... we're walking...

[Antarias (Death)] "And uh, stop when I stop."

[john2 (to Fritz only)] I think the first test will be to cast Continual ligt, we can always hid it in our robe when we need to put it out

[Antarias (Death)] ::reaches down and pulls her/him out by the scruff of the jacket::

[Kwan Sun (Vicki)] ::follows Ant::

[BOB] and make it to the edge of the glass

[john2 (to Fritz only)] did not do my homework

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] I thought about trying to hobble one of the camels but bob really wanted us to move on without stuff so I didn't

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] I even was going to make an illusion of them but he didn't give me any time

[BOB] a rolling sea of glass, like some huge glacier cutting through the desert.

[john2 (to Fritz only)] I hope this is as easy as BOB thinks

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] like an illusion of the chest still there and take a chest for later to work on

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] I actually just hope it is fun and not easy.

[BOB] as you approach the edge

[BOB] you feel the heat radiating off of it

[BOB] almost glowing

[john2 (to Fritz only)] its a big puzzle

[Kwan Sun (Vicki)] "Is it just me or did the temperature skyrocket?"

[Antarias (Death)] "Yep."

[Antarias (Death)] "Val, go up."

[Antarias (Death)] ::flies up to see/feel what she can::

[BOB] Val can see that the glass is sparkling in the moon light

[BOB] there are heat waves rolling off of the glass

[BOB] it looks hot enough to cook on in the middle

[BOB] but the edges are cooling off

[BOB] make an intelligence check

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] I would just like him when it is all over to explain why some things were transported and otherrs weren't

[Antarias (Death)] ] Valedianna: INT check: (d20) [1d20=3] 3 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 15!!

[BOB (to Fritz only)] I have a plan to post all the back story and NPC point of view of the adventure when it is all done

[BOB] Val would guess that in 2-3 hours it will be cool enough to walk on

[john2 (to Fritz only)] after it is all over, maybe

[BOB] before that it will be so hot that armor and such will cause problems

[BOB (to john2 only)] I have a plan to post all the back story and NPC point of view of the adventure whenit is all done

[Rave Starfire (Fritz) (to john2 only)] may I look at your spells?

[Kwan Sun (Vicki)] ok...

[Death] "Well, I guess we wait, then."

[BOB] you are walking through the dunes

[Finglas (Death)] which are incredibly similar to the oasis

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] What about when we were in the oasis?

[BOB] Paul, and Finglas need to make observation check

[Vicki (to john2 only)] My hubby likes watching House, and not sure why, but for me, he's self-centered asshole

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] How about me?

[Finglas (Death)] fin doesn't have

[john2] Would light help?

[BOB] no

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] It's day time

[BOB] it is evening

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Then why does the clock say 8:00 am?

[BOB] you left the oasis when it was getting dark

[john2] Eastern time

[BOB] becaue that is the day when you stepped through the dream portal

[BOB] it has not changed after that

[john2] we are Mid East time

[Finglas (Death)] "Everyone apparently thinks I am a cold monster. Perhaps I should let you all go to your doom and find better friends."

[john2] "outa tme"

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] (no admit you just forgot to advance time...admit it...admit it)

[john2] I said thanks

[BOB] ( I am intentionally not, just like when you are in the Underdark I don't when you know the actual date I will set it to that)

[BOB] so you move out through the dunes

[BOB] and make it to the edge of the sea of glass

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] (Who gives a shit about the date...at least put it at 8:00 pm so we know it is nice

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] night

[john2] woo hoo

[BOB] ] Liam Dugan, Finglas, Rave Starfire, Paul Elvenstire and Moirra moved 705'10".

[BOB] The sea ~f glass is not a level, featureless plain. Glazed dunes, "waves:' pits, and jagged areas dot the region. The glass appears to be quite thick,

[john2] what is the transition like?

[john2] can we find a small chuck of glass

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] NOpe, no glass here John

[BOB] the edge is sharp

[BOB] like a knife

[BOB] but it is very hot out on that surface

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] ((Swings the knife around gettin a feel for it))

[BOB] what knife?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] It is hot at night?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Paul just gave me a knife

[BOB] it is hot yes, and Paul does not have a knife to give you

[john2] I was just saying the glass is as sharp as knife

[john2] if you have a handle I have the blade

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Oh wow...get me rock first, then I can get me a knife

[FRITZ] I am away from the keyboard.

[BOB] there is no moon in the sky, it is a deep purple above, the sea of ice glows with the heat coming off of it

[john2] it is true I can end any spell I cast?

[BOB] yes

[john2] I find a nice big piece

[BOB] big piece of what?

[john2] glass

[BOB] there is none

[BOB] no chunks, no pieces,

[FRITZ] I am back at the keyboard.

[john2] ok moving on

[john2] hot to touch?

[BOB] yes

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Can your amulet being do anything Fin? How hard is a clerics holy symbol

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] ?

[Finglas (Death)] "No. It is useless."

[john2] did I get a wing from Rave?

[BOB] you have a feather from him yes

[john2] Paul (attempts) to cast Fly on myself

[john2] just kidding on the silver

[john2] ] Paul Elvenstire casts a spell against : Fly: Fly like an Eagle"

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Get one from the sphinx we are about to run into in a littel while

[john2] can I fly?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Dude I could tell you that the air up here is as hot as the ground down there

[BOB] yes

[BOB] you can

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Save your spell

[Finglas (Death)] i don't have the components for control temp, so we'll have to wait, too

[john2] what are your components

[Finglas (Death)] willow bark

[Finglas (Death)] to drop temp

[john2] so we wait

[BOB] the temp starts to drop

[BOB] quite suddenly

[BOB] and keeps going down

[john2] lets go

[Finglas (Death)] ::thinks about holding the temp steady::

[BOB] as you start out you feel the ice become very slippery

[BOB] and cold,

[BOB] slick

[john2] I guide them as I fly over

[Finglas (Death)] "Wall of Fire" ::thinks about a wall of fire as per the spell appearing in the desert::

[BOB] what do you mean?

[Finglas (Death)] well, i talked about control temp and you said the temp dropped quickly

[john2] I hold Moria's hand so as to try and help her not slip

[Finglas (Death)] so i'm testing out if him thinking of the spell wall of fire works the same way

[BOB] ok, no it does not

[Finglas (Death)] like we've got mental command spells now instead of normal components

[BOB] very good thought though

[Finglas (Death)] okay, then are we there yet?

[john2] master your own dreams

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] If it was such a good thought, how come it didn't work?

[BOB] so slowly wakling out into the dunes of glass

[BOB] and you need to all make a dex check to avoid falling except Rave

[BOB] well if Paul is flying

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] PPPBBBLLLTTTTTSSSSS

[BOB] he does not need to

[john2] I am trying to help Moria and Fin

[john2] unless Fin does not want to hold my hand

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] How long does it take to get across the glass, and how long does pauls's spell last?

[Finglas (Death)] ] Finglas: DEX check: (d20) [1d20=4] 4 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 17!!

[john2] too long for sure

[BOB] Fly lasts for how many turns?

[john2] 13+1d6 turns

[BOB] so you get about half way across the sea of glass before that wears out

[john2] no issues until then?

[BOB] none

[john2] fin and Moria still able to walk

[Vicki] ((What would Liam do about all this if y'all are helping Moirra and Fin?))

[BOB] slowly but surely you can make it

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Hey Bob, is that my hand print out there near the Chinese theater?

[BOB] ] Sphinx A moved 284'10".

[john2] I join them on the ground and try and keep going

[Sphinx A (BOB)] WHO ARE YOU

[john2] My name is Paul

[Finglas (Death)] "I am Anterias Stonecutter and this is my sister Valedianna Galwythe."

[Sphinx A (BOB)] wrong map Mike

[Sphinx A (BOB)] wrong group

[Vicki] (*snicker*)

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] (schizo)

[Finglas (Death)] this is stupid.

[Finglas (Death)] "I am Finglas Galwythe."

[Sphinx A (BOB)] and you small flying one?

[Sphinx A (BOB)] a human and elf and a pixie traveling together?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Rave, but how so you see me, big one?

[Sphinx A (BOB)] I can see into the heart of any matter

[john2] it's your hair

[Finglas (Death)] "This is a Sphinx."

[Finglas (Death)] "It can do many things, Rave."

[john2] it stick out

[Sphinx A (BOB)] why are you here?

[Finglas (Death)] "To deal with the Flail of Kings."

[Sphinx A (BOB)] why would you do that?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Because it brought us here

[Finglas (Death)] "Because it is a burden I do not wish to bear."

[Sphinx A (BOB)] the Flail can not bring you anywhere

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] To prove our worth to vanquish a greater evil

[Sphinx A (BOB)] have you not tried its powers?

[Sphinx A (BOB)] are you sure you do not want to bear it?

[Finglas (Death)] "No. I wish to have as little to do with it as possible."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] (Looks at Finglas)...NO I would guess we havent

[Finglas (Death)] "Why would I?"

[Sphinx A (BOB)] do you want to give it to me then? I can take care of it for you

[Finglas (Death)] "It brings misfortune to those who bear it."

[Finglas (Death)] "And how would you deal with it?"

[Sphinx A (BOB)] why do you care?

[Sphinx A (BOB)] you want to be rid of it

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] yea, Fin, why do you care?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] You haven

[Finglas (Death)] "Bug, quiet. Your betters are speaking."

[john2] Can you tell us of it's power?

[Finglas (Death)] "I wish to be rid of it, Sphinx, but not without knowing the cost."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] You haven't even checked to see what it could do, and we have been trecking through this god forsaken desert... Find me someone better then me and I will you giant fairy

[Sphinx A (BOB)] you may call me Sage

[Finglas (Death)] "As you wish, Sage."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] His name is Idiot...but we call him Finglas

[Sage (BOB)] you must use the Flail if you wish to control it

[Finglas (Death)] "I never said I wish to control it."

[Sage (BOB)] but if you wish to be rid of it, then how will you do that?

[Finglas (Death)] "By solving the mystery behind it."

[Sage (BOB)] if you can not control your own desires

[Sage (BOB)] you are afraid of it

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] What does the Flail do Sage?

[Finglas (Death)] "Of course."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Yes Chicken Shit is his other name, but we call him Finglas

[Sage (BOB)] it is wise to be cautious of that you do not understand

[Finglas (Death)] ::Nods::

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] See he agrees

[Sage (BOB)] so why do you want to be rid of it? what matters the mystery?

[Finglas (Death)] "Because I have been involved in events that affect more than just me. If this has the power to shape the world, it is my responcibility to see it does not do so for the ill of it."

[john2] I wanted to try it but he would not let me

[Sage (BOB)] and when you know what it does wil you still destroy it?

[Finglas (Death)] "It would depend on what it does."

[Finglas (Death)] "And what destroying it means."

[Sage (BOB)] you wanted to solve the mystery of the flail

[Finglas (Death)] ::nods again::

[john2] I think there is a missing item related to it

[Sage (BOB)] what do you know of that mystery?

[Sage (BOB)] nods at Paul

[Sage (BOB)] very good, you know it is part of a set

[Finglas (Death)] "That it is magic, it brings dreams to those who bear it and around those who bear it."

[Finglas (Death)] "The local legends that point to it as the tool of a mad king who wished to overthrow the gods."

[john2] was it built for good?

[Sage (BOB)] it torments those that bear it

[john2] or just law

[Sage (BOB)] no item meant to be used against a god can ever be good

[Finglas (Death)] "And that those gods then punished the whole land for that king's mad dreams."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] destroy One entry found. Main Entry: de·stroy Pronunciation: \di-?stro?i, d?-\ Function: verb Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French destroy-, destrui-, stem of destrure, from Vulgar Latin *destrugere, alteration of Latin destruere, from de- + struere to build — more at structure Date: 13th century transitive verb 1: to ruin the structure, organic existence, or condition of ; also : to ruin as if by tearing to shreds 2 a: to put out of existence : kill b: neutralize c: annihilate, vanquish intransitive verb : to cause destruction

[Finglas (Death)] "But that does not make it inherrently evil."

[Sage (BOB)] do you not think the gods have the right and or obligation to destroy those that would attack them

[Finglas (Death)] "Don't we all?"

[Sage (BOB)] and when you destroy this

[Finglas (Death)] "If I destroy it."

[john2] if

[Sage (BOB)] what do you intend to do

[Finglas (Death)] "Go home."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] IF

[Sage (BOB)] I do believe ou

[Sage (BOB)] you

[Sage (BOB)] I do not know if you will suceed in your quest

[Sage (BOB)] but I do know that if you do not make it down the cliffs before sunrise

[Sage (BOB)] you will die

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] They have never failed...quit half way through, but never failed.

[Sage (BOB)] and become bits of ash on the plains of glass

[Finglas (Death)] "Well, then I suppose we had best hurry. Would you offer us your aid?"

[john2] Can you help us>

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Why I guess sitting here and chatting with you is taking up a bit of time we don't have to waste

[Sage (BOB)] I will guard you from others

[Sage (BOB)] but I cannot provide more direct help

[john2] then lets go

[Sage (BOB)] he points the way

[Finglas (Death)] ::nods:: "Thank you then, Sage."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Bye Sage. Thanks.

[Sage (BOB)] go there and decend teh cliffs before the sun rises

[Finglas (Death)] ::bows:: "Then if you will excuse us, we'd best hurry."

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I guess we can ask you later about who Khamsa was

[BOB] ] Liam Dugan moved 362'10".

[BOB] ] Moirra moved 350'00".

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] 1 mile from the glass

[john2] but the heat comming off it?

[Sphinx B (BOB)] nods

[Sphinx B (BOB)] the general heat overall

[Antarias (Death)] 3 miles on regular terrain?

[Sphinx B (BOB)] you will not be sauted on the glass

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] If we go toward the wrist on the hand we walk away from the glass.

[john2] Rave change into ....

[john2] umber hulk

[Sphinx B (BOB)] both ways go away from the glass slowly

[Finglas (Death)] 3 miles on regular terrain?

[john2] make us a cave please

[Sphinx B (BOB)] the rocky plains

[Finglas (Death)] then let's just go to the temple

[Finglas (Death)] a child can walk 3 miles in an hour

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Ok...I do that, since it is rocky plains and not sand...I thought it was sand

[john2] in the scorching sun

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] That is what I thought Mike

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Well a normal person can anyway

[Finglas (Death)] i know for a fact that as a middle schooler i could walk a mile in 15 minutes.

[Vicki] I do that now...

[Finglas (Death)] so if we also have an hour utnil sunrise, and it's 3 miles around to the temple, we should be able to make it

[Vicki] as an adult

[Finglas (Death)] my point was even a child can do it.

[Sphinx B (BOB)] it will take you longer here

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] If we walk toward the wrist we shall be 2.5 miles in 1 hour

[john2] it 3 miles north or south

[john2] plus 1 mile east

[Finglas (Death)] bob said 3 miles around

[john2] plus 1.5 back south or north

[Finglas (Death)] so what is it bob?

[Sphinx B (BOB)] at least 3 miles around

[Vicki] I thought it was 3 miles across

[Sphinx B (BOB)] plus encounters

[Sphinx B (BOB)] plus dangerous terrain

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I say walk south towards the wrist. We will be 2.5 miles into the area away from the glass

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Save spells

[Finglas (Death)] then let's just make a cave and sleep, then.

[BOB] the Spinx did tell you to go down teh cliff

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Won't make any difference....lets walk

[BOB] just to remind you

[john2] You cast spells?

[Finglas (Death)] yeah. how?

[Finglas (Death)] did the sphinx give us a rope?

[Finglas (Death)] wings?

[Finglas (Death)] spell components?

[Finglas (Death)] anything useful?

[john2] He said to be off the glass, we are off the glass

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Really...ok..then. JOhn want to fly him Fin down together?

[john2] yes fly for as long as we can then make cave

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Ok I will make a cave. Lets at least get down.

[john2] ] Paul Elvenstire casts a spell against : Fly: Fly like an Eagle"

[BOB] [Sage (BOB)] I do not know if you will suceed in your quest but I do know that if you do not make it down the cliffs before sunrise you will die and become bits of ash on the plains of glass

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] We team up and fly him down

[john2] do not look up Fin

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Actually don't look DOWN

[john2] that too

[john2] giggling

[BOB] ok, so the five of you make it to the base of the cliffs

[BOB] ] Paul Elvenstire moved 185'11".

[BOB] ] Rave Starfire moved 181'05".

[BOB] ] Finglas moved 206'04".

[BOB] ] Liam Dugan moved 873'03".

[BOB] ] Moirra moved 849'03".

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Wait....Paul don't cast fly

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I have a better idea...

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] You all hold hands. Jump down together, and cast feather fall. It will take affect in a 10 foot radius and cover every one

[john2] it does not last that long

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] That is why you wait to cast it till you get close to the ground

[BOB] LOL

[BOB] Base jumping with Paul

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Free Falling without a bungy cord!!!

[BOB] what are you doing at the bottom of the cliffs?

[Vicki] ((LOL

[BOB] digging a hole?

[Vicki] ))

[john2] if we could fall that far forward

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I will fly down a ways....when you get to me cast the spell.

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] That will keep you from going to far

[john2] I am show rave where to dig

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] ] Rave Starfire casts a spell against : Polymorph Self: The caster can change shape into any creature from the size of a wren to a hippopotamus.

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Umber Hulk

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] dig a cave for us

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Paul, Fin. Do you think anyone will follow us?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Should I try and make stairs for them?

[Finglas (Death)] yes. the paparatzi will go anywhere

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] No do you think any of your henchmen will try and find us?

[Finglas (Death)] nope

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Ok...

[Finglas (Death)] because they're on a different plane

[john2] I would worry about the stairs up if you have time

[Finglas (Death)] because the teleporter is screwed up

[BOB] Combat has finished.

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I will go and make stairs going up then

[BOB] you can not make stairs the whole way back up Fritz

[Finglas (Death)] the two groups are obviously not in the same area/plane/time/something else

[BOB] you will not have time before sunrise

[john2] nothing fancy, just rough enough for us to walk

[Finglas (Death)] ant crossed a plane of glass, fin crossed a plane of ice

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] If Moirra will come with me to the other side then she can give me water as time goes on...

[BOB] she is not here to do that

[BOB] but I am getting us to a pausing point

[BOB] to pick up next week

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Then how the hell did we get this far without water?

[BOB] if group A is going to hunker down at the base of the cliff

[BOB] you have not had any water

[BOB] all night long

[BOB] and if she does not show up next week you all die

[john2] they gave us some when we got there

[BOB] unless Finglas can create water

[john2] well then let's discuss this a bit

[Finglas (Death)] nope

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Fuck that shit....I would have waited next to the oasis if I didn't have a way to get fucking water

[Finglas (Death)] not without a drop of water

[Finglas (Death)] and i bet spit doesn't count

[BOB] you can't just sit an an oasis until someone show up one week

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] You specifically said when I asked about water...Moira can make some as you go.

[BOB] she is a round behind you can not use a character that is not here

[john2] and they gave us water

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Then we don't fucking move.

[john2] can an air elemental pull water from the air?

[BOB] soyou hunker down at the base of the cliffs here

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Spit will work

[BOB] no it will not

[john2] did down some more Rave

[Finglas (Death)] well bob, when you put us in a situation where we can only survive if we have a specific person here, then yes, we do sit at the oasis

[Finglas (Death)] you seem to enjoy screwing us up that way.

[john2] not up

[Finglas (Death)] first the sword, now water

[BOB] no you knew at teh beginning of the night tonight that Kaz was not here

[Finglas (Death)] hell, i'll not show up next week then what?

[BOB] but we are at a good stopping point

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Wait we didn't know you wouldn't give us water bob

[BOB] then Vicki has to make it alone

[Finglas (Death)] the whole game will have to go on hold until i deside to show up again.

[BOB] no they go on

[Finglas (Death)] because i have the item.

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] NO WAY

[BOB] and when they get there and you are not there, they fail in teh quest

[Vicki] and without water? are you fucking nuts?

[Finglas (Death)] they gonna trade away a magic item like we did before?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Bob there are rules and there are rules

[BOB] we went over this a few months ago

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I will put my ass back at the oasis

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] This is not fair

[BOB] about how unfair it was on the lake about the one round behind people

[BOB] we are calling it a night here

[Finglas (Death)] i'm not suggesting we use round behind characters

[Finglas (Death)] i'm suggesting we not get stuck because someone doesn't show up.

[BOB] yes you are, you are saying that Moirra should be casting spells

[BOB] that is exactly what Fritz wants

[Finglas (Death)] then don't say i'm suggesting it

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] only one spell a simple create water spell. but hey...you said we would have access. It no access to spells I wouldn't have left without water

[Finglas (Death)] not to mention, the spell does not say a drop of pure water, just water

[BOB] saliva is not water

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] LOL...yes it is

[Finglas (Death)] scientifically speaking, yeah.

[BOB] then it would say that in the spell description

[Finglas (Death)] hell, fritz is a doctor, he can give you the break down better than i can

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I am a doctor and you are telling me spit isn't water?

[BOB] a drop of spit instead of a drop of water

[Finglas (Death)] but considering how dirty unfiltered water is, i'd bet that human fluids have about the same percentage of h2o

[BOB] for magic spell purposes it is not

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Yes it is...

[BOB] just like a 20 foot square is different than 20 square feet

[BOB] no it is not

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] That is why it is an easy spell

[BOB] I have never allowed it

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Hey your game, your spell. but don't tell me spit isn't water.

[john2] do I understand that we need a drop of water and Kaz to make more water?

[BOB] yours might be but not in the game

[Finglas (Death)] then i hope that in the morning we've got some dew to work with or i'll stay a round behind and not die of thirst

[BOB] yes to John

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] I agree with you Mike

[Finglas (Death)] then why did you say kaz can make water?

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] How was she going to cast the spell then?

[BOB] I do not know

[BOB] but she has the spell

[BOB] I ahve no idea how you are going to accomplish things,

[john2] or if we can

[BOB] I think you can

[Finglas (Death)] when you put us in the middle of the desert with nothing and nothing to work with...

[BOB] but I am never sure

[john2] soory, I am going to sleep now

Death] has left the game on Fri May 15 22:36:57 EDT 2009

[BOB] nods

[Rave Starfire (FRITZ)] Ok...then why lead us on, saying we can do it, when I specifically stated I wanted to get water?

[john2] good night to all

FRITZ] has left the game on Fri May 15 22:37:06 EDT 2009

[Vicki] night night John

[john2] ttfn

[Vicki] um... and to everyone else for that matter

Vicki] has left the game on Fri May 15 22:37:46 EDT 2009

[john2] can an air elemental get water out of the ground?

[john2] air

[john2] you must be saying by to Mike, see you on line
