[Master] welcomes Lisa and Marco
BiBo!!! has received the map Regatta Grid.
[Lisa] Hello
[Lisa] Dee didn't like the regatta idea?
A-82533 has joined the game on Fri Nov 25 18:53:22 EST 2011
A-82533 is receiving the map Regatta Grid...
[BiBo!!!] howdy. apparently not
[Master] grins, she went totally off line so I am guessing she will be back
A-82533 has received the map Regatta Grid.
[Master] and hello agent 533
[Lisa] party pack is updated
[Master] I saw thank you
[Lisa] hit a key and deleted all my changes so had to do it twice
[Master] and the total to get the Knarr fixed is 90 GP
[Lisa] grrr
[Master] that sucks
[Lisa] but it is done
[BiBo!!!] the gnarr was damaged?
[A-82533] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Heads
[Master] the other two costs were?
[Lisa] in the bugbear spinning around battle
[Master] yes, the Knarr has been damaged from the day you got it, you smashed into it with the barge
[Lisa] going to temple of air and light
[Lisa] and get to add Indigo's gambling winnings
[Master] gems worth 200 gp for that trip
[BiBo!!!] lol. there is apparently a novel called "Bob the Dragonslayer"
[Master] and then the winnings are 30 gp
[Master] I am pretty sure
[Master] forgot to double check that one sorry
[Master] OH and that 200 is for a 1 person trip
[Master] more people costs more
[Lisa] Branwyn can go by herself while everyone is training
[BiBo!!!] hey, I cant find my link to the dragonslayers website. what is it again?
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.SailingEvents
[Master] that is the direct link to the rules for the Sailing Events
[BiBo!!!] thatll work
[Master] but I would recomend bookmarking the News and Updates
[Lisa] we are running short on stuff again
[Lisa] can we stop by a bank and trade out silver in for gold?
[Lisa] our
[Master] yes you can
[Lisa] and I can make change for the airbus?
[Master] or for what ever denominations you want
[BiBo!!!] luff? what does this word mean?
[Lisa] I spent most of our gems on training and now only have 500 gp gems left
[BiBo!!!] would be better to trade for plat if you are gonna do that.
[Master] or for a credit slip with the money lenders
[BiBo!!!] does that work anywhere?
[Lisa] not dealing with loan sharks
[Lisa] platinum is too big
[Lisa] like carrying a bunch of hundred dollar bills
[Lisa] I want twenties
[Lisa] an atm around?
[BiBo!!!] yeah, but sacks of coins are heavy, unlike bills
[Lisa] actually if I pay for knarr in silver would be 900 sp
[BiBo!!!] so fewer coins means less load
[Lisa] we don't have that much money any more
[Lisa] almost broke again
[Master] and 15 SP for the winnings on the bet
[BiBo!!!] doesnt take much for coins to be heavy
[Lisa] then I will turn it into platinum and you will be in charge of the party pack and paying for everything
[BiBo!!!] are we going to be using these "advanced rules"?
[Master] no
[Lisa] you can do exchanges and updates
[Master] only basic rules tonight
[BiBo!!!] okay, ignoring that section then
[Lisa] okay?
[BiBo!!!] no thanks
[Lisa] then don't tell me what demoninations I should have
[BiBo!!!] I am not telling you anything. just giving an opinion.
[Lisa] you are free to take over record keeping at any time
[Lisa] It's not like your character is carrying anything anyway
[Master] ok
[Master] so
[Master] backing up a bit now that I am looking in here again
[Master] we have prices that Lisa needed for the records
[Master] ok
[Master] and we can move to the Regatta now?
[Master] not sure where Guy is
[Master] or Dee or Bret for that matter
[Master] and who agent 533 is
[BiBo!!!] what die do we roll btw for this?
[BiBo!!!] 4?
[Master] Lisa and Marco are there any questions for the Regatta?
[Master] and you roll the ("wind_direction_change") [1d0=] -1
[BiBo!!!] a d0?
[Master] the curly bracket dollar sign 1 curly bracket
[Master] and if you get the wind direction change result you flip the coin to see which way the wind changes
[Lisa] ("1_leg") -1
[Master] exactly Lisa
[BiBo!!!] ("2_legs") -1
[Master] right Marco
[BiBo!!!] huh
[Master] there are custom dice you can set up to do a lot fo things
[BiBo!!!] apparently
[Master] die #1 is for the sailing events
[Master] will do more later
[Master] I will be right back, getting a drink and we can do a practice round
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[BiBo!!!] is diagonal movement okay?
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] yes
[BiBo!!!] how many boats are competing?
[Master] I was goign to have one boat for each player
[BiBo!!!] meaning one npc boat?
[Master] was not planning on any NPCs
[BiBo!!!] oh, just pcs then
[Master] 500 Xp to each player participating
[Master] 1000 XP to the winner
[Lisa] anything else we need to do here while we wait for people?
[Master] Agent 533? are you participating in the Regatta?
[Lisa] 1000 on top of the 500 or 1000 total?
[Master] I do not know who this is by the way
[Master] yes on top of
[Lisa] sweet
[BiBo!!!] hmmm.... where's the rule for blowing up all the competition....
[Master] so what I want to do is to have Lisa go as Player one righ tnow
[Master] that means she rolls the dice until a wind change
[Master] then Marco would take over that
[Master] we will do two practice turns
[Lisa] this is practice?
[Master] so we are all sorted on the rules
[BiBo!!!] wheres the starting line?
[Master] yes
[Lisa] do I get two boats?
[Master] the line between the two blue circles
[Master] and no one boat per player
[BiBo!!!] ah
[Master] grins
[BiBo!!!] fewer boats are probably for the best
[Lisa] so I have to decide if Indigo or Branwyn is racing
[BiBo!!!] what are the red dots? the finish line?
[Master] wind direction is now se
[Master] set
[Master] and the red dots are the Marks
[Master] you have to go counter clockwise around them
[Master] so up to the right then make a hard left
[BiBo!!!] you put entirely too much effort into this minigame bob :-P
[Master] then across and another hard left
[Master] grins
[BiBo!!!] so.... we circle them then go back through the blue dots? is that our goal?
[Master] yes
[Lisa] are you moving for us?
[Master] no
[Master] Lisa roll for your first turn
[Lisa] Indigo is not on my list
[Lisa] ("2_legs") -1
[Master] you want Indigo instead of Bran?
[Master] Ok
[Master] so you have a two leg turn
[BiBo!!!] weird, I see indigo there
[Master] he is not on this map, I put Bran there instead
[Master] but can switch them out if you wish
[Lisa] was just thinking Indigo need the XP siince he earns so slowly
[Lisa] but I can live with either
[Lisa] so how do I move?
[Master] so you see the wind there blowing TO the nw
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 1'01".
[Lisa] yes
[BiBo!!!] if our turn consists of roll until wind change, cant we potentially do the whole race in one turn? especially with klooge dice
[Master] this is possible yes
[Lisa] and I in the correct starting spot?
[Master] yes
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 35'07".
[Master] ok that is Running with the wind
[Lisa] so move two + nw?
[Lisa] which is in the wrong direction of starting line
[Master] right
[Master] so you can instead move to the NE
[Master] and be Beam Reaching
[Master] you get to move two spaces
[Lisa] or just go north
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 19'02".
[Master] or that and that would be 3 spaces
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 29'09".
[Lisa] I was there
[Master] Direction with Respect to Wind - Number of Spaces per leg Broad Reaching - 3 Beam Reaching or Running - 2 Beating - 1 Luffing - 0
[Master] yes to Lisa
[Master] now three spaces on a broad reach or 2 spaces on a beam reach
Guy has joined the game on Fri Nov 25 19:30:10 EST 2011
Guy is receiving the map Regatta Grid...
[BiBo!!!] what do those words mean?
Guy has received the map Regatta Grid.
[Master] which way you are sailing in relation to the wind
[Master] and hello Guy
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 44'06".
[Guy] howdy howdy
[Lisa] right?
[Master] yes to Lisa
[Lisa] Hi Guy!
[Lisa] ok
[Lisa] next
[Master] now Marco can make his move this leg
[Master] and I will point out that you have one more leg this turn before the next Turn starts
[Master] and Guy will go after marco
[BiBo!!!] thought you keep going til the wind change?
[Lisa] Guy - when it's your turn just roll ("2_legs") -1
[Master] no to LIsa
[Master] Lisa is the person rolling the dice until she gets a Wind Change
[Guy] i roll boating or seamanship right
[Master] no to Guy
[Guy] oh ok
[Lisa] oh
[BiBo!!!] oh... so the dice roll applies to everyone then?
[Lisa] read the web page and it is still confusing
[Master] Player 1 (Lisa) rolls the die, she is in control of the die until the turn she rolls the Wind Change
[Master] and yes Marco has it
[Master] the person rolling the die gets to go first
[Master] tactical advantage so to speak
[Master] then Marco then Guy
[BiBo!!!] oooooh.... okay that makes more sense
[Master] once Lisa rolls the Wind Change then Marco will get the die
[Master] so right now Lisa rolled a 2 leg turn
[BiBo!!!] here I was thinking that person would just go forever until windchange then the next player goes
[Master] so she took her first leg
[Master] then Marco takes his first leg
[Master] then Guy takes his first leg
[Master] then Lisa 2nd
[Master] etc
[Master] then she rolls again for the next turn
[BiBo!!!] gotcha
[Master] so now Marco moves on his first leg
[BiBo!!!] so if I go ne, I move 3 spaces?
[Master] no 2
[Master] you will be heading across the wind
[Master] or a Beam Reach
[BiBo!!!] which way is broad reaching then?
[Master] going straight north like Lisa did
[BiBo!!!] so north I go 3 spaces then?
[Master] yes
[Master] but you have to manuver so you go inbetween those two marks for the starting line
[BiBo!!!] yeah
[BiBo!!!] and we have to wait 3 rounds of wind changes before we pass the line right?
[Master] and Guy because Sarengar has navigation you get an extra Puff Card to go one extra space if he makes his roll
[Master] and no to Marco there is two turns before crossing the line but this is just practice so no worries about a quick start this time
[Guy] hey bob i thought we got the knarr fixed before the last regatta
[BiBo!!!] okies
[Master] yes to Guy just now putting in the cost
[BiBo!!!] Llathandryll moved 42'05".
[Guy] ah ok was just trying to catch up
[Master] now Guy you go this leg
[Master] Sarengar moved 2'01".
[Master] Branwyn moved 5'09".
[Master] Belros Milner moved 2'06".
[Master] Viridis Dundragon moved 3'01".
[Master] I set your facing for you on your icons
[Guy] ok trying top understand this and not getting it
[Master] so it is easier to tell what you are doing
[Master] Ok very simple of Guy
[Master] going to the NE you get to move 2 spaces
[Master] N
[BiBo!!!] its not, but helps to have the website up if you dont already
[Master] you move 3
[Master] I will put a note on the map also for you
[Master] with the rules good idea Marco
[Guy] Sarengar moved 33'01".
[BiBo!!!] (^.^)v
[Master] exactly
[BiBo!!!] so does this mean lisa wont be able to move next leg?
[BiBo!!!] cuz guy is behind her?
[Master] Sailing Events moved 243'02".
[Master] yes to Marco
[Master] Guy is now Blanketing Lisa
[Master] but this is Lisa's go for the 2nd leg
[Master] so she can change her heading now
[Lisa] ("1_leg") -1
[BiBo!!!] no roll yet
[Master] no to LIsa
[Lisa] sorry
[Lisa] want to roll
[BiBo!!!] lol
[Master] you stay there because Guy cut off your wind,
[BiBo!!!] so I go then?
[Master] now is Marco's move on leg 2
[BiBo!!!] Llathandryll moved 32'07".
[Master] yes to Marco
[Guy] so are we a team or what?
[Master] and now Guy
[Master] and no to Guy
[Master] everyone gets 500 XP
[BiBo!!!] nope. battle royale
[Master] and 1,000 to the winner
[Master] so Guy can move on his 2nd leg
[Guy] Sarengar moved 39'01".
[Master] do you all know how to change your facing?
[Guy] nope
[Master] to the marker is pointing in the way you are headed?
[Master] ok
[BiBo!!!] I think so, but does facing matter?
[Guy] just found it
[Master] it show which way your boat is heading so you know how many spaces you would be moving
[Master] and that finishes one TURN
[Master] now Lisa rolls again
[Lisa] ("1_leg") -1
[Master] ok this will be a 1 leg turn
[Master] Guy I just changed your faceing back to North
[Master] you change on your move
[Guy] oh ok
[Master] now it is Lisa's leg of this turn
[Master] you can change your facing then move
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 16'03".
[Lisa] ok?
[Master] obvious move is to do a Beam Reach to the NE and exactly but two spaces
[Master] Branwyn moved 15'11".
[BiBo!!!] is there a limit to how much we can turn?
[Master] one turn per leg
[Lisa] got it
[Master] or one heading change per leg
[Master] now Marco
[Master] your leg this turn
[BiBo!!!] I mean can we turn 180 degres?
[Master] no to Marco you can only tack one heading point per leg
[BiBo!!!] Llathandryll moved 30'09".
[BiBo!!!] okies
[Master] and now Guy goes
[BiBo!!!] so north to northwest etc?
[Master] correct Marco
[Guy] Sarengar moved 31'02".
[Master] and now that ends the turn
[Master] and Lisa rolls again
[Lisa] still practicing?
[Master] yes
[Master] one last turn of practice
[Lisa] ("1_leg") -1
[Master] and so similar to last turn
[Guy] ("1leg") -1
[Master] ok so Lisa goes
[Master] and yes to Guy that is how you would roll
[BiBo!!!] ((the roll is a d dollar sign 1 btw guy))
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 50'05".
[Lisa] done
[Master] Running is only 2 spaces Lisa
[Master] Branwyn moved 19'03".
[Lisa] thought it was 3 if I was going in wind direction
[BiBo!!!] you are going perpendicular
[BiBo!!!] so 2
[Lisa] ok
[Lisa] now done
[Master] 3 for a broad reach, wind to your rear quarter 2 if a beam reach (side) or running (behind)
[Lisa] :)
[BiBo!!!] the terminology is confusing :-P
[Master] and 1 if coming from a front quarter (beating)
[Master] and zero for luffing, heading directly into the wind
[Master] so Marco goes
[BiBo!!!] Llathandryll moved 34'03".
[Master] and guy goes
[Guy] Sarengar moved 34'01".
[Master] and that is the end of the Turn and lisa would roll again
[Master] so everyone is mostly clear?
[BiBo!!!] as mud. but I think I can feel around
[Guy] i guess so
[Master] Viridis Dundragon moved 193'00".
[Master] Belros Milner moved 217'01".
[Master] Agent 533 you with us yet? you want to participate?
[Master] Branwyn moved 149'03".
[Master] Llathandryll moved 146'03".
[BiBo!!!] no agents. they cheat.
[Master] Sarengar moved 169'06".
[Master] Llathandryll moved 34'11".
[Master] grins
[Lisa] He doesn't even answer his phone - I don't think he wants to play
[Master] Ok you can set up where you want to be, remmber there are two turns to get to the starting line not two legs
[Master] so you can be where you want
[Master] then Lisa will roll shen you are ready
[Guy] Sarengar moved 28'11".
[BiBo!!!] I wish the phone would make ringing noises again. I never seem to notice it anymore
[Master] it does ring for me
[Master] is your sound on?
[BiBo!!!] yeah, I hear everything else
[BiBo!!!] just not that
[Master] huh
[BiBo!!!] havent for years
[Master] if you right click on the phoen you can mute it
[Master] did you do that?
[BiBo!!!] nope. was unaware I could. just checked though and its not muted
[Master] ok
[Master] so Lisa you are ready?
[Guy] brb
[Lisa] sure
[Master] go on and make teh first roll
[Lisa] ("wind_direction_change") [1d0=] -1
[Master] LOL
[Master] ok so flip the coin
[BiBo!!!] you fail!
[Lisa] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Tails
[Master] so counterclock wise one space
[Lisa] probably better I don't roll anyway
[Master] and then Marco is now Player #1, then guy then Lisa
[Master] so Marco can now roll for the first Turn
[BiBo!!!] (d"wind_direction_change") [1d0=] -1
[Lisa] lol
[Master] ok
[BiBo!!!] yay klooge!
[Master] so on a breezy day
[BiBo!!!] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Tails
[BiBo!!!] gods at this rate we wont be able to make it to the start line
[Master] and now the wind shifts even more in that direction
[BiBo!!!] the wind will stop us from advancing
[Master] that would be Beating into the wind and yes Marco
[Master] if it does not shift again will be a long slog to the first mark
[Master] OR you can tack back and forth
[Master] zig zagging to go longer on each leg
[BiBo!!!] which doesnt seem feasible considering how little we turn
[Master] adding the XP now while we wait for Guy
[Lisa] who lives in Colorado?
[Master] depends on how many legs Marco
[Master] and not sure LIsa
[Master] must be a new player, but they grabbed Robert's old Avatar
[Master] Branwyn XP award: 500. Next level in 35765.
[Master] Llathandryll XP award: 500. Next level in 4242.
[Master] Branwyn XP award: 500. Next level in 35265.
[Master] Sarengar XP award: 500. Next level in 37003.
[Master] Llathandryll XP award: 500. Next level in 3742.
[Master] by the way this is officially the Regatta di Pepius
[BiBo!!!] is there a regatta di poopoos too?
[Master] chuckles no
[Master] this is the fourth regatta of the season
[Master] we skiipped the third one
[BiBo!!!] thats good. I draw the line at race number 2
[Master] and #5 is a repeat of the first one that you did during the Birthday game
[Master] but with slightly different crews
[Lisa] no repeats
[Master] and ladies and gentlemen that concludes this portion of the bathroom humor
[BiBo!!!] thats what YOU think
[Master] at least until Marco starts beating
[Lisa] okay - I hate directions
[BiBo!!!] I will save the beating for my private time
[Lisa] if guy doesn't change the direction and I go north - what is that?
[Master] which directions would that be Lisa?
[Lisa] all directions
[Master] ok
[Master] North would be a Beating Tack
[BiBo!!!] if you go north, you go 1 space
[Lisa] when people say - here let me draw you a map, I scream NOOO!
[Guy] sorry all
[Guy] im back
[Lisa] tell me turn left turn right
[Master] think of a car
[Lisa] otherwise I get all lost
[Master] directly in front of you is luffing
[Master] ahead to the right or left is beating
[Master] directly to the side is Beam Reaching
[Master] to the direct rear is Running
[Master] and left or right rear is Broad Reaching
[Lisa] isn't right ot left really to the side?
[Master] right or left front corner
[Master] quarter panel
[Lisa] diagonally
[Master] yes
[Lisa] I am going to lose miserably
[Master] and Guy are you all caught up now?
[Lisa] just correct my mistakes and move on through this
[Lisa] it's your turn to roll Guy :)
[Guy] ("1leg") -1

[Master] Ok sorry that is fixed now
[Master] Guy can roll again
[Guy] (""wind_direction_change"leg") [1d0=] -1
[Master] LOL
[Master] yes that is right now
[Master] flip the coin
[Guy] oi vey
[Lisa] so first roll didn't count?
[Master] he did not actually put the $in
[BiBo!!!] he moved though :-P do we move too?
[Master] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Heads
[Guy] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Heads
[Master] there we go
[Master] so now Lisa
[Master] Guy did you actually move your boat?
[Guy] yeah
[Master] Sarengar moved 16'03".
[Master] and fixed

[Master] takes time
[BiBo!!!] Llathandryll moved 27'11".
[Master] and now Guy
[Guy] move or roll?
[Master] move
[Master] you do not roll again until after Marco gets a wind shift
[Guy] Sarengar moved 25'11".
[Master] and now Lisa for the 2nd leg
[Lisa] Branwyn moved 24'03".
[Master] good
[Master] Marco
[BiBo!!!] Llathandryll moved 25'11".
[BiBo!!!] no danger or false starts here...
[BiBo!!!] of
[Guy] Sarengar moved 24'09".
[Master] not that you want to use it now but remember later you get two PUff cards for when you want to move an extra space
[Master] and now Lisa rolls for the next TURN
[Lisa] ("wind_direction_change") [1d0=] -1
[BiBo!!!] 2 for the whole game?
[Lisa] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Heads
[Master] yes to Marco
[BiBo!!!] unless we have boating?
[Master] yes to Marco then you get 1 extra potential one
[BiBo!!!] yay. we might actually make it to the starting line!
[Master] and Marco roll for the new Turn now
[BiBo!!!] ("2_legs") -1
[BiBo!!!] Llathandryll moved 32'01".
[Master] and now Guy
[Guy] Sarengar moved 27'08".

[Guy] Sarengar moved 60'03".
[Master] nope
[Master] need to change your heading
[Master] Sarengar moved 26'06".

[Master] you can go NE
[Master] and move two spaces
[Lisa] or NW
[Master] yes Lisa has it now
[Guy] Sarengar moved 31'11".
[Master] and now Lisa said she was luffing
[BiBo!!!] I thought its already been 3 turns
[Master] so that is her leg
[BiBo!!!] with all the wind changes we had
[Master] and now this is the start of the 1 TURN of the race, so marco rolls
[Master] those do not count as turns

[Master] yes
[Master] that is running
[Guy] Sarengar moved 30'04".
[Master] and a ship actually goes faster when it is to the rear quarter rather than directly behind you
[Lisa] so can I go or am I stuck?
[Master] you can go
[Master] he is not blocking you
[Lisa] and where are we going after red dot?
[BiBo!!!] to the west
[Master] mark two
[Master] yes
[Master] so NW heading now, two spaces
[Lisa] confused

[Lisa] I am not going very fast
[Master] Branwyn moved 31'05".
[Master] you can change from North to NW and move two
[Master] or change from N to W but that takes a whole leg
[Master] cannot turn tighter than that
[Lisa] everyone is going to have that problem then since everyone is going NW?
[Master] yes
[Master] you were heading N can switch to NW and move or to W and no move

[Master] Branwyn moved 16'05".
[Master] then Guy goes

[Master] Lisa when from a W to a S in one leg

[Lisa] did you want to Guy?
[Guy] nope
[Master] you were all in very good posistion coming up to the second mark
[Master] Then the wind shifted and Marco was one space ahead for the turn
[BiBo!!!] v(^.^)v
[Master] then with that wind shift he woudl move two every leg while the others were moving 1
[Master] is why is looks so different at the end
[Master] thank you very much for trying this out
[Master] I think with one or two more players would be different
[BiBo!!!] so.... is this the end of our boating race adventures?
[Master] and unless you are clammoring for more yes
[Master] there is one last regatta but you already did that course
[Master] and now have seen all three types of races
[BiBo!!!] I am pretty sure I am not clamoring
[Master] so for future adventures you know what to expect and or challenge NPCs to
[Guy] im good with regattas for a while
[BiBo!!!] lol. no offense, but if a npc challenges me to one more boat race, I will kill him no matter who he is or what the repurcussion are
[Master] chuckles
[Master] and I got so involved in teh race I forog to name NPCs for the party
[Master] give me a momemtn for a rest room break then will be setting up the next map
[Master] brb
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Guy] brb too
[BiBo!!!] heck I am pretty sure that will be my reaction if an npc even SAYS boat race.
[BiBo!!!] "So... boat race" ::gurk::
[Lisa] at least Llathandryll will probably be assured of many women swooning over him at the party
[BiBo!!!] lol. nah, just his luck, none of them were watching this one
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] and back
[Master] and yes this is a big deal
[BiBo!!!] hell be like I just won the regatta del peepee and they will be like what?
[Master] I consider this as a win for the Dragonslayers
[Guy] back
[Master] and right now I would say lets make sure training eetc is all caught up
[Master] and those misc things
[Master] then we can either A run the party and it will leak into next week
[BiBo!!!] yeah, some peeps leveled. lets get any profs trained that need training
[Master] or B start Flower Power and run the party when you return back to Rivers Bend
[BiBo!!!] cuz gods know when we will get the chance to do it again
[Guy] i have a weapon and nonweapon prof to train
[BiBo!!!] nows your chance
[BiBo!!!] do it! before we are stuck in another 6 months of adventures to pay for training
[Guy] the non weapon im going to save the weapon iwant to train in net
[Lisa] you said last week you wanted net training?
[Guy] yup
[Guy] we have a perfectly good magic net thats just going to waste
[BiBo!!!] I imagine a water town like this would be a good place to learn that
[Lisa] do you want other training too?
[Guy] no im saving that
[BiBo!!!] for anthing in particular?
[Guy] till i can think of something lol
[Lisa] I paid for the net training
[BiBo!!!] got observation? lol
[BiBo!!!] cant do anything without observation
[Lisa] not sure how much we are going to have to spend for a guide etc for outreach
[Master] there is another spot coming up for more training time too Marco and Guy
[Master] after you are done with Flower Power
[Master] you are returning home to the Jistille Estates for the Burst of Building story arc
[BiBo!!!] thats what you say now. but that will likely be 5 months from now
[Lisa] but that is when Branwyn and Indigo take a horde of cash out for training
[Master] which will conclude the Stretching their legs
[Master] dragonslayer Era
[Master] and you will do all the training you wish at that point
[BiBo!!!] I would say our legs are pretty well stretched
[Master] to be all caught up to start the new Era
[Guy] lol
[BiBo!!!] so is the next era gonna be stretching our arms?
[Master] grins, I will let you knwo the new name when it comes up
[BiBo!!!] maybe jumping jacks?
[Master] but will be in Drillian
[BiBo!!!] back to vampires eh?
[Master] yeap
[BiBo!!!] I will be useless yay
[Master] LOL
[Master] not at all
[Guy (to GM only)] Character sheet for Sarengar modified:
[BiBo!!!] unless undead suddenly gain the ability to be affected by enchantment spells, totally :-P
[Guy (to GM only)] Character sheet for Sarengar modified:
[Master] but lots of villagers, and such will be swooning around you I am sure
[BiBo!!!] lol. they can get level drained for me
[Guy] bob the net is it +! or +2
[Master] will check
[BiBo!!!] think it was 1
[BiBo!!!] he said 2 then changed to 1
[Lisa] 1
[Master] yes +1
Lisa is receiving the map Base Map...
Lisa has received the map Base Map.
BiBo!!! is receiving the map Base Map...
BiBo!!! has received the map Base Map.
[Guy (to GM only)] Character sheet for Sarengar modified: Weapons - CHANGED: Net -- Magical Adj: +1 (+0),
Guy is receiving the map Base Map...
[Lisa] how do I get yellow triangle off my head?
Guy has received the map Base Map.
[BiBo!!!] set your facing to none
[Lisa] thank you
[Master] smile
[Master] so roughly 2400 gp left right now after the trip cost for Branwyn
[Lisa] where did you get that number?
[Master] totalled the items on the party pack
[BiBo!!!] magic land!
[Master] not counting unapraised things
[Master] or magic items
[Lisa] or stuff we aren't going to sell?
[Master] right
[Master] you have 2,000 in the two gems and goblet
[Master] and could negociate differently with the goblet of course
[Master] but lets go down the list
[Master] did you subtract the 45 GP for Indigo to fix the Knarr?
[Lisa] let's not
[BiBo!!!] the goblet was some holy thing that would be sacrelege to selll right?
[Master] would normally be 90
[Lisa] you said 90!
[Lisa] dammit Bob
[Lisa] you said 90
[Master] is 90 but his working on it saves you half
[Lisa] so I took out 900 sp
[Master] you can add in 45 GP
[Master] no worries
[BiBo!!!] its okay, we are 45 gp richer.
[Lisa] well then why didn't you say that when I was working on the sheet?
[Master] I thought I did is why I am clarifying now
[Lisa] someone else has to keep track of this
[Lisa] it is just too irritating
[Master] ok moving forward for now
[Master] we are taking out 200 form the current totals for Branwyn's trip to return the Bowl fo Wind
[Master] Sarengar's training is already paid for with the Net
[Master] Llath's training with the mage for his Signature spell is going to be a favor for the future when the mage wants it
[Master] nothing is due now
[Master] so that wraps up all the expected costs
[Master] and CLICK
[Master] so now we have Branwyn working on organizing the trip to Outreach
[Lisa] why am I organizing it again?
[Master] becasue you were not training
[Master] but you can get help from both fo them
[Master] as they will both be done
[Lisa] can I train now?
[Master] there is 7 weeks open yes
[Master] what di dyou want to train in?
[Lisa] I was not being serious
[Master] ok
[Master] so Bran is back from delivering the Bowl
[Master] they are very grateful
[Master] and tel you to just send a message if you ever need help again
[Master] Llath has his signature spell
[Master] and Sarengar knows how to use the Net
[Master] you have 7 more weeks before Koorin returns
[Master] how do you want to plan and organize yoru trip to Outreach?
[Guy] sarengar has no clue how to go about traveling on land lol
[BiBo!!!] thought we just continue down the river
[Master] It is 137 miles up the cliff face and across the upper plateau which will take you six days to reach Outreach. Some of that travel is by mule/donkey some by horses that you will have to arrange at some point.
[Master] you are done on the water
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.RiversBend
[BiBo!!!] can any of us ride horses?
[Master] no one
[BiBo!!!] then those are out
[Master] you need to to make it in time
[Master] so you need to organize
[Master] hire a guide to help you get up the cliffs
[Master] and then travel to Outreach
[Guy] what about carts?
[Master] yes these are the things you need to ask
[Master] and no carts cannot go up the cliff face
[BiBo!!!] magic carpets
[Master] none in the party pack
[BiBo!!!] we need to rectify that
[Master] Simply called the Bridge by all the inhabitants of the city this is the engineering marvel that so encompasses people's thought about connecting to the rest of the world that to say you are crossing the bridge can mean you are taking a spiritual journey or have crossed into death.
[Guy] what about having carts waiting for us at the top?
[Master] that is the First Bridge you need to cross, up to the Nest
[Master] yes to Guy you can arrange for that
[Master] or try to
[Master] that is what I was planning on you roleplaying out now
[Master] when you figure out who and or where you are talking to
[Master] anyone have any ideas?
[Guy] no clue
[BiBo!!!] not really. just walk I guess
[Master] Ok,
[Master] so really not going to do anything for the 7 weeks you have befroe Koorin comes back
[Master] just hang out then walk
[Master] just want to be clear
[BiBo!!!] cant think of anything
[BiBo!!!] unless there is some form of transport I am not thinking of
[Master] ok
[Lisa] Branwyn can make arrangements to her liking and knowledge
[Master] one last check, you are not hiring a guide, not looking into anything about how to get to Outreach, you are just clicking off 7 weeks then starting to walk up the cliff path ?
[Lisa] but if no one is going to help then it will be that
[BiBo!!!] buy a map?
[Lisa] and if characters are not happy with the arrangements then they can kick back at the palazzo
[BiBo!!!] how much is a guide?
[Master] when do you look for one?
[Lisa] during the 7 weeks we are waiting for Koorin
[Lisa] just need to go to a bar and ask around
[Master] ok
[Master] talkign to peopel at a couple of bars they are all horrified you want to cross the bridge
[Master] and go out into the wilderness like that
[BiBo!!!] why? lazy city folk?
[Lisa] as well they should be but they have to know someone who knows someone
[Master] but they will recommend a couple of people who are in their opinion crazy and want to go out and deal with people up there
[Lisa] thought so
[Master] talking with them at Bridge Landing
[Master] you find out that there are two different guides that can take you to the top of the cliffs and then get you introductions to Outreach
[Master (to GM only)] Man moved 5'06".
[BiBo!!!] do we have anyone who can id the flower we are looking for?
[Master] Guide #2 moved 7'10".
[Guy] sarengar will talk with his patron and see if they know of any carts to be had at the top of the cliff
[Master] Winter, Captain ventier, Young man, Captain Rillja and Silgin moved 14'11".
[Master] Drell Del Trill and Mr. Harken moved 37'08".
[Master] Drell Del Trill targets Captain Rillja. Distance: 5'09"
[Master] Drell Del Trill targets Mr. Harken. Distance: 0'05"
[Master] Guide moved 12'10".
[Master] Guide #2 moved 13'05".
[Master] Koorin moved 21'10".
[Master] another good question Marco
[BiBo!!!] or at least have a picture or something so we know it when we find it?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] it would depend on if the guide is onl;y going to take us up the cliff or all the way to the great plains
[Master] and Sarengar's patron give you the info that there is no traveling up or down the cliffs with large ammounts fo goods, and the natives, he describes them as savages, do not want people taking large ammounts of goods out, althoguh some trade is fur does exist
[Master] and that they do not want anything from this side of the cliffs
[Master] it seems
[Master] so when you go interview these two guides, (in separate meetings) you have that info
[BiBo!!!] okay, so no merchant caravans to join
[Master] Guide #2 moved 6'06".
[Master] Guide moved 6'02".
[Branwyn (Lisa)] cannot find map - but if I remember we have cliffs then walk to outreach then walk to plains for flowers, correct?
[Master] there is guide #1, and Guide #2 to talk to
[Master] and yes up cliffs then across the upper pleatau
[BiBo!!!] so do we need any special expertise or research to identify the flower or can we assume we will know it when we find it?
[Master] It is 137 miles up the cliff face and across the upper plateau which will take you six days to reach Outreach. Some of that travel is by mule/donkey some by horses that you will have to arrange at some point.
[Master] is the quote
[Master] and the map is
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.RiversBend
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and the plains where the flowers are are beyond outreach, correct?
[Master] and no to Marco, if you have herbalism or Botany you have a check to make it
[Master] yes to Lisa
[Master] or you need a native guide to identify
[BiBo!!!] okay, so we need a native guide then. that means hiring the person there then right?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so we are covered
[Master] and that is what you need to interview your guides about Marco
[Master] Llathandryll moved 17'03".
[Master] Branwyn moved 15'04".
[Master] Sarengar moved 9'07".
[Master] Indigo moved 22'10".
[Master] Viridis Dundragon moved 17'06".
[Guy] brb
[Master] Belros Milner moved 13'09".
[BiBo!!!] okay guide #1. what do you know about the (insert name here) flower?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Guide (Master)] nothign at all, but the tribesmen will be able to help you find that I am sure
[BiBo!!!] great. youre fired
[BiBo!!!] okay guide #2. what do you know about the (insert name here) flower?
[Guide (Master)] if you can convince them to let you go out onto the plains
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we have herbalism - I am more worried about getting up the cliff)
[Guide #2 (Master)] I do not care about flowers
[Guide #2 (Master)] I care about getting up and down alive
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is what I care about too
[Guide #2 (Master)] and surving the ghosts of those who did not
[BiBo!!!] what are these guides doing for us exactly?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] There are ghosts in the cliffs?
[Master] right now you are trying ot find someone to get you to Outreach and an introduction to the Tribes
[Guide #2 (Master)] I have heard the howls of the dead at night
[Guide #2 (Master)] and in the wind during the day that tries to rip you off the path
[Branwyn (Lisa)] How many days do you think it will take us to get up there?
[BiBo!!!] okay, so guide 2 doesnt know anything about the tribes. but guide 1 maybe does.
[Guide #2 (Master)] once you leave the Nest
[Guide #2 (Master)] you will take another day or so to climb up tot he top of the platau
[Guide #2 (Master)] then I can arrange to switch out our mules for horses at the top
[Guide #2 (Master)] and we can ride across the plains in another two days
[Guide #2 (Master)] should make it to the city by then
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Errrr, we're not exactly skilled at horsemanship
[Guide #2 (Master)] as long as we are not attacked you should be ok
[BiBo!!!] yeah, because that isnt going to happen
[Guide #2 (Master)] it is much faster than walking
[BiBo!!!] and falling off a horse while on a cliff sounds great
[Guide #2 (Master)] no horses on teh cliff, mules up the cliff
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Mules for the cliffs
[Guide #2 (Master)] then switch out to horses
[BiBo!!!] mule, horse. same difference when you are falling off a cliff
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and you would take us to outreach and introduce us to the tribe?
[Guide #2 (Master)] actually a mule is unlikely to fall off the trail, where a horse would not make it up or down
[BiBo!!!] even if we are attacked?
[Guide #2 (Master)] I cannot say I can get you an introduction
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so you do not know them?
[Guide #2 (Master)] I can get you to the city, but not promise you you can get in
[Guide #2 (Master)] Oh I know where it is
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Is is difficult to get in?
[Guide #2 (Master)] it can be tricky to find but I know how
[Guide #2 (Master)] you will have to pass their holding cells, they call it quarentine
[Guide #2 (Master)] they do not let anyone through into the city
[Branwyn (Lisa)] there is sickness there?
[Guide #2 (Master)] unless they are sure they are safe
[Guide #2 (Master)] they think we are sick here
[Guide #2 (Master)] they claim we are riddled with sickness
[Branwyn (Lisa)] how long is the quarantine?
[Guide #2 (Master)] a week
[BiBo!!!] There ARE a lot of sick people here....
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And how much would you charge for your services?
[Guide #2 (Master)] 5 gold per person in your group to get you there, plus a silver per mule
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and the horses?
[Guide #2 (Master)] I will pay for that
[Guide #2 (Master)] the priests will not take my money, only yours for the mules
[Branwyn (Lisa)] that sounds reasonable but we must think upon it
[BiBo!!!] I am back at the keyboard.
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] priests?
[Guide #2 (Master)] you are heading off the edge of the world
[Guide #2 (Master)] the priests are there to guide your way
[Branwyn (Lisa)] there would be priests traveling with us?
[Guide #2 (Master)] at least one yes
[Guide #2 (Master)] they go from the monestary up to the top of the cliff
[Guide #2 (Master)] then lead the mules back down
[Guide #2 (Master)] when another group is coming down
[Branwyn (Lisa)] that is very brave of them
[Guy] I am back at the keyboard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] May we think about this and get back to you?
Sarengar (Guy) whispers to Indigo you mean you were serious about going to the plains?
[Guide #2 (Master)] nods, I have not picked up a group yet for the spring
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you
[Guide #2 (Master)] but do not wait too long, someone will need me if you want to go early, I will be back in the early summer if you want to go then
[Indigo (Lisa)] of course we have a favor for Ancien!
Sarengar (Guy) shudders
Branwyn (Lisa) looks for Guide #1 and asks him about taking us up the cliffs
[Guide (Master)] what would you like to know?
[Indigo (Lisa)] You will like him when you get to meet him finally
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You would be willing to guide our party up the cliffs and to Outreach?
[Guide (Master)] I will help you negociate with the priests and make it to the top of the cliffs
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If so, how would we be getting there? On foot, mule?
[Guide (Master)] on mule or donkey with the priests
[Guide (Master)] then we would walk across the plains
[Guide (Master)] it would take me a day or three but I see you have little people with you
[Guide (Master)] that will slow us down
[Guide (Master)] but we will travel light
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And would you be able to introduce us to the tribe at Outreach?
[Guide (Master)] once you make it to Outreach and get through the holding period
[Guide (Master)] then yes
[Guide (Master)] looks at the group
[Guide (Master)] points to Branwyn, y ou survived the Grey Death?
[Guide (Master)] how about you? points to Indigo
Branwyn (Lisa) looks surprised
[Guide (Master)] or you points to Sarengar
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes, I did and Indigo is immune
[Guide (Master)] they will not beleive that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He is a halfling
[Guide (Master)] they will still have him wait in the holding
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He cannot catch it
[Guide (Master)] how can you prove that?
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "None of us died of the grey death."
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "That means we all survived it."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If we are all in quarantine then he would be with us. That is not a problem
[Guide (Master)] no, it means you did not die from it
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "not dying is the same as surviving."
[Guide (Master)] unlike her, points to Branwyn, she has the scars to prove it
[Guide (Master)] but will still make her wait
[Guide (Master)] the tribal elders will say that they have never seen a case of the Grey Death in the Lands
[Guide (Master)] and they will not let one reach them
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "Thats fine. so we wait a couple of days. Can we still get through after?"
[Sarengar (Guy)] how long is this holding period?
[Guide (Master)] 1 week if none of you are sick
[Guide (Master)] or 1 week after you are all well again
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "Sick at all, or specifically with the grey death?"
[Guide (Master)] if you are sick
[Guide (Master)] sick
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Would we be in a cell with others who might be sick?
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "No one get a cold I guess."
[Guide (Master)] you would be in a cell as a group
[Guide (Master)] if you have a cold I would advise not traveling there
[Guide (Master)] you will be wasting your time
[Guide (Master)] they do not like outlanders
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so no one can catch the plague while in quarantine)
[Guide (Master)] (unless you bring it with you)
[Sarengar (Guy)] interesting how this was not mentioned by the other person we spoke with
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It was
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] It was
[Branwyn (Lisa)] well, not the plague part but the quarantine part
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] just not in as much detail
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and after we are released you may introduce us to people in the tribe who might guide us further?
[Sarengar (Guy)] ((sorry i must have missed it))
[Guide (Master)] I can get you an interview
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and what would you charge for your services?
[Guide (Master)] only the tribal elders will decide if you are allowed to go out into their Lands
[Guide (Master)] why do you want to go there ?
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "We like picking flowers."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] there are medicinal plants that are needed by a friend of mine
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (or what he said)
[Guide (Master)] I will have you pay for the mules up the cliffs, 1 silver per person, then I will charge you 10 gold pieces to lead you across the platau and then another 10 for the introductions
[Guide (Master)] when do you plan on coming back
A-82533 has left the game on Fri Nov 25 22:39:28 EST 2011
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (he didn't even say goodbye)
[Guide (Master)] (no clue who that was, just let them watch as they seemed harmless)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] As soon as our task is complete. It is hard to say without speaking to the tribe about how difficult getting the flowers will be.
[Guide (Master)] if you want me to wait around for you it will cost you
[Branwyn (Lisa)] How much?
[Guide (Master)] the Elders will not let me stay in the city, so I will have to go camp on my own
[Guide (Master)] another 10 gold to wait a week for you
[Guide (Master)] when you find out how long you will be gone we can renegociate if you want
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and I suppose another 10 to take us down?
[Guide (Master)] to get you to the cliffs yes
[Guide (Master)] it is easy to get lost out there in the Lands
[Guide (Master)] have you ever been over the edge fo the world before?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Can't say that I have
[Guide (Master)] out beyond the safe confines of the city
[Guide (Master)] out into the wild
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Actually getting out of the city would be a joy to me
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "This must actually be a record for being in a city for us."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And what is your name?
[Guide (Master)] we will be carrying our own gear, hunting and finding our meals
[Guide (Master)] I am Joshwin
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is nice to meet you Joshwin
[Joshwin (Master)] when do you want to leave?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] In about seven weeks?
[Joshwin (Master)] good
[Joshwin (Master)] the winter winds will have died down
[Joshwin (Master)] spring will be warmer, if wetter
[Joshwin (Master)] and i can have gear waiting for us up top
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Any supplies you recommend us having to start?
[Joshwin (Master)] warm clothes, I hope the snows will be gone by then
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we will have some food and rope, torches?
[Joshwin (Master)] I will supply you with four tents
[Joshwin (Master)] if you need more than that bring them
[Joshwin (Master)] just the five of us?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] could be as many as 8 of us
[Joshwin (Master)] ahh
[Branwyn (Lisa)] including yourself
[Joshwin (Master)] then I will bring one more tent
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You seem very kind and knowledgeable
[Joshwin (Master)] and I will tell the priests we will be there 12-3
[Joshwin (Master)] I have lived through several of these journies, and the Tribesmen have let me out onto the plains twice
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I thiink I need to discuss this with my friends for a moment. Would you excuse me?
[Joshwin (Master)] of course
Branwyn (Lisa) turns back to Llathandryll and Sarengar
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What do you think? he doesn't have horses but I think we will get farther in Outreach with this one
[Sarengar (Guy)] i agree
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] "Hes pricier, but can get us introduced. That seems the most important thing to me."
[Sarengar (Guy)] sometimes you get what you pay for
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes and we son't know how to ride horses anyway
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And has tents
[Master] I will point otu that horses can go 12 miles per day you will be walking 6 miles per day
[Master] and over 137 miles that difference can add up
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (that is true - but if we went 137 miles and the tribe won't see us we will be in worse shape)
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] ((especially if they wont see us becaus we fell off our horse and broke a leg))
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (more days, more encounters, more chances of death)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not easy anyway you slice it)
[Master] I think you are missing one option
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no guide?)
[Master] the opposite
[Sarengar (Guy)] hiring both guides
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] both guides?
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] we can do that? I would assume they would be pissy
[Master] that is why you negociate with them
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I was just thinking that)
[Master] not telling you what to do
[Master] just making sure you see all the options
[Sarengar (Guy)] thats nopt a bad idea IF they are both willing
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I could go for that
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.FP-OOC
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] well, what do they say about hiring them both then?
[Master] you need to be there for month 5
[Master] as of righ tnow you will get to the top of the cliffs on day 14 of the 3rd month
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (if we make it through this horse thing without killing ourselves could we be considered proficient at the end?)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (on the job training)
[Master] so walking you will take 23 days, riding only 12 days
[Master] and no
[Master] not enough time in the saddle, if you spent weeks there and had an open slot then yes
[Sarengar (Guy)] takes more than 12 days to learn how to ride
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (24 - there and back)
[Sarengar (Guy)] and that comes from experience
[Sarengar (Guy)] unfortunastely i will have to get going i have a long day tomorrow at work
[Branwyn (Lisa)] sorry about that
[Sarengar (Guy)] i will be next week as im once again off
[Master] if you walk you will have 12 days after quarentine to find a guide and get to the flowers
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] have fun
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so we are all good for two guides?
[Sarengar (Guy)] this wekend is going to be a busy one for us
[Master] if you ride you will have 28 days to do that
[Master] good luck Guy
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] if they agree, I am fine with it
[Master] see you later on
[Sarengar (Guy)] thanks im good will 2 guides
[Master] what are you offering them
[Branwyn (Lisa)] goodnight!
[Sarengar (Guy)] night
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] money
Guy has left the game on Fri Nov 25 23:01:02 EST 2011
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] they asked for some, we give them that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we will pay what they have requested
[Master] pay both in full?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we need to ask guide #1 if he will wait with the other for our return
[Branwyn (Lisa)] forgot to ask him that
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] I suppose. no point in pissing off our guides
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we pay in advance to get us to outreach
[Branwyn (Lisa)] once there we pay for wait
[Master] so to be clear on the cost: 1 silver each to get up the cliffs
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes
[Master] 10 Gp to one guide and 5 GP per person to the other guide to get you to Outreach by horseback and provide tents, etc.
[Master] so 50 GP
[Master] then 10 GP for the introductions at Outreach
[Master] we are up to 60 GP so far
[Master] is that ok?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] it is what it is
[Branwyn (Lisa)] yes
[Master] Ok
[Master] for that cost they will both wait one week for you
[Master] because you are agreeing to pay half up front now before you go up the cliffs
[Master] and the other half when you reach Outreach
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and 50 for the return?
[Master] right
[Master] but that is not paid until you actually return
[Master] and they will take payment in kind, not required in coin
[Master] so gems, etc.
[Master] or if you bring something back from the Plains
[Branwyn (Lisa)] 50 gp worth of flowers
[Master] chuckles
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] thats a lot of flowers
[Master] you can negociate that if you wish later
[Master] so that is settled, 30 GP now, two guides, when you reach Outreach another 30 GP
[Master] and next week we start with you crossing the bridge
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so Llathandryll has rope, Indigo is carrying rope
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] okies
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] llath always has rope
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we will leave almost everything at the palazzo
[Master] you can fill out on the party pack during the week your supplies
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] if he has nothing else, its rope
[Master] and what is where
[Master] you have a secure storage at the Palazoo
[Branwyn (Lisa)] forgot with continual light we don't need torches :)
[Master] and at the Pyromancers Tower as well
[Branwyn (Lisa)] grab some food
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] continual light is nice
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] I am gonna grab some food. They have butter chicken curry at 7-11. joy is me
[Master] smile
[Master] go eat
[Master] and during the week contribute to the Party Pack page
[Master] list your assets,
[Master] grins
[Branwyn (Lisa)] wheelbarrow
[Llathandryll (BiBo!!!)] I add some butter chicken curry
[Branwyn (Lisa)] okay - goodnight all
