mharm-15549 has received the map New Residence second floor.

[mharm-15549] Hello

[Master] Hello there

[Master] you are in very early, grins

[mharm-15549] And how are you this fine day

[mharm-15549] Oh sorry

[Master] I do hope you can keep this up for the next 18 hours,

[mharm-15549] Just checked into hotel

[Master] you are just fine

[Master] it would not be up if I did not want you in

[Master] 5+ hours tonight, then 12+ tomorrow

[Master] did you see on the site Spring will not be n

[Master] in

[Master] Mario will be

[Master] Lisa will be

[mharm-15549] I will be in for all of toonight, but tomorrow will be probably a hit and miss. I'm out of town for a funeral

[Master] so at least the three of you plus TMO

[Master] ouch

[mharm-15549] Yeah

[mharm-15549] from last week

[Master] what happened?

[Master] other than the obvious

[mharm-15549] Great Uncle

[mharm-15549] Good friend

[mharm-15549] I'll do my best to be in though

[mharm-15549] Also ouch to spring being gone.

[Master] do what you need

[Master] yeah

[Master] we will see where we go with it

[Master] I am just going to pop something into the oven for dinner

[Master] will be back up in a short bit

[mharm-15549] No prob

[Master] but also look at the party pack and your own stuff

[Master] so that when Lisa is in you two can work together on what each person has, etc.

[Master] I am away from the keyboard.

[mharm-15549] Potion of Zombie control and Protection from undead...........Hm. Can't think when that would have come in handy or anything.

[Master] I am back at the keyboard.

[Master] In the oven, two more jaunts down to turn and to take out

[Master] and yeah, that might have been good

[Master] but also Michael you need to know how much you can carry

[Master] etc.

[Master] no wagons,

[Master] so did you want to bring mules? something that can go on paths with you

[Master] or a wheel barrow, :)

[mharm-15549] Yeah, i'm not sure how to do that. :) typing

[mharm-15549] one problem we have

[mharm-15549] Is that when it hits the fan, we usually lose our mounts. And, therefore most of our equipment

[mharm-15549] I keep essentials with me in my pack, but for anything we might find. Not really sure. We might consider taking a mule or horse with us, but then we also have to worry about feeding them, etc.

[mharm-15549] Also, if you are amiable for time

[mharm-15549] and since we have no healer...

[mharm-15549] Please for the love of god. Let me go see if I can find any sort of healing potion??????

[mharm-15549] :)

[mharm-15549] I'm so scared of what will happen without kenna around to save our butts.

[Master] Healing Potions are not for sale

[Master] you can have a priest make them for you, they take time

[Master] and will cost quite a bit in donations to the church

[mharm-15549] Well. Time is not on our side lol

[mharm-15549] And yeah, i'll bet

[Master] you should talk about that also

[Master] how much time do you want to spend, what are the real options

[mharm-15549] I don't like spenind the groups money

[Master] look over again the things that NEED to be done

[mharm-15549] Well, Mr. Silver was pretty far up that list

[Master] this finding the scrolls is to help solve the problem for the Prince

[mharm-15549] Yeah

[Master] and Branwyn's demon mark

[mharm-15549] I'll ask Lisa what I can do to make that go faster

[mharm-15549] Yes to that as well

[mharm-15549] I highlighted a few conversations

[Master] both to helping out of character with clear consice planning

[mharm-15549] One thing we have a problem with seems to be coming up with a good clear plan and following through because as the plan occurs we fracture into how each of us want to handle unexpected suprises. I think that might be why we have so mucch trouble sometimes.

[mharm-15549] I'm guilty of it I know, but I try to be on the Cautious side

[mharm-15549] But, overall I have a list of Lisa's todo list and hopefully we can just go down the list

[Master] and in character by taking care of things, being proactive and offering opinions also

[mharm-15549] LOL: I offer lots of opinions....They just aren't always good ones :)

[Master] I think that making a plan such as "we will have these people on guard duty, wake me if something happens"

[Master] then following through is the issue

[Master] but you can work on all of that

[mharm-15549] Okay. That's a good start

[mharm-15549] Trust me. When the DM Speaks. I do my darndest to listen. I learned that many years ago. Just sometimes we panic or I screw something up. I'm trying to work on that.

[Master] the one thing that is an annoyance is logging out

[Master] like Mike did the other day

[Master] and then not logging back in or talking

[mharm-15549] Eh, I did too when the stress got too much

[Master] when things go bad, put up the Away from Keyboard

[Master] but stick around to listen and comment as you can

[mharm-15549] Yeah, that's probably better then not talking at the very least

[Master] which is the problem with Mike

[mharm-15549] You heard anything from him?

[Master] he logged out and did not see that other people saved his characters

[Master] only on FB

[mharm-15549] Okay

[Master] meaning his FB posts in general he has not talked to me directly after that night

[mharm-15549] I seriously might have to suck it up and create a henchman if Mike doesn't hcome back soon. We'll need all the help we can get if we have to do this crazy stuff. *Sigh* Hope he comes back soon.

[Master] I would argue you should do it now

[Master] make a priest

[mharm-15549] Do I have your permission?

[mharm-15549] Really?

[Master] sure

Lisa has joined the game on Fri Sep 16 18:57:32 EDT 2016

Lisa is receiving the map New Residence second floor...

[mharm-15549] Okay

[Master] we can do that quickly

[Master] you and Lisa talk

[mharm-15549] I'll try

[Master] and I will look and give you suggestions

[mharm-15549] Hey Lisa!

Lisa has received the map New Residence second floor.

[mharm-15549] I'll do my best. Hopefully Lisa can give suggestions for a build because I haven' thad to deal with magic of my own so I'm in new territory

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

[mharm-15549] Since we don't have Spring, Lisa, Bob was okay with creaitng a priest. Would you be interested in suggestions?

[mharm-15549] TY Bob

[Master] Duties of the Priesthood Priestess of Venery are always hunters and trackers. Upon attaining the status of Companion they choose a particular quarry that they are attuned with. In a rural setting this might be the knack for finding lost cattle or for hunting wolves. In the wilderness this could skill might be used towards tracking a particular humanoid race. The priestess can chose any one type of quarry to pursue. When on the trail of their preferred quarry the Priestess receives a +1/3 levels to their tracking proficiency check. This does not negate the non-ranger penalty for tracking. Priestess of Venery are often split on what to do when they do find their quarry. Some liken it to sport, find the quarry and then move on to the next. Those that track for hunting purposes have a different purpose in mind. Every priestess decides in her own way

[Lisa] Hello :)

[mharm-15549] :)

[mharm-15549] Doing quick research bob. I'm fine with that. Unless you have any priests of the nordic or celtic world

[Master] there are both of those, but they would be very rare in this part of the world

[mharm-15549] No problem then. This is good.

[mharm-15549] I'll look it up real quick

[Master] one reason is Uthe is Kenna's Goddess

[Master] so it is a nice link

[Lisa] sorry was reading

[mharm-15549] Sorry Lisa, I couldn't contain myself and hopped on as soon as I saw the connect button :)

[Lisa] so you picked the god that will help us find lost cows Bob??

[mharm-15549] Lol.

[Master] finding lost characters seems appropriate for this group.... :)

[mharm-15549] I don't know too much about this area Lisa, I'm taking suggestions

[mharm-15549] and OMG Your right bob

[Lisa] I have never played a priest - they are a bit different

[mharm-15549] "In the wilderness this could skill might be used towards tracking a particular humanoid race" Like I said. Bob always gives decent suggestions :)

[Lisa] yes he does

[mharm-15549] Alright Bob. I'll talk with Lisa. Whenever you are ready, I can do my rolls for you.

[mharm-15549] So Lisa, I saw your list

[Lisa] priests have to keep track of their spells themselves - klooge doesn't do it for you

[mharm-15549] I thought it was a really good ones

[mharm-15549] oh

[mharm-15549] Is it hard to do Lisa?

[Lisa] thank you

[Lisa] no

[mharm-15549] Do I need to buy a manual for the spells?

[Lisa] spring mentioned last week she had to look at her notes?

[Lisa] no no

[mharm-15549] Just looking up Priests right now

[Lisa] klooge has the spell list and descriptions

[mharm-15549] Feel free for discussion while I'm doing it

[mharm-15549] Also I see that.

[mharm-15549] Oh gosh

[mharm-15549] So many

[Lisa] oh I can always keep talking :)

[mharm-15549] Good thing I can multitask :)

[mharm-15549] Little hard in a hotel though. No second monitor haha

[mharm-15549] First world problems

[Lisa] say you have 5 first level spells and 3 second level spells

[mharm-15549] Okay

[Lisa] then you would need to either keep a notepad or Word page with the spell count and note down how many you cast of each level

[Lisa] new day start over

[mharm-15549] Only with sleep though :)

[Lisa] yes

[mharm-15549] The last few sessions have made that painfully obvious

[Master] you can do that on the Notes page in Klooge too

[mharm-15549] Alright.

[Lisa] good idea

[mharm-15549] So when I make my character. I can only go as high as cast level 2. Correct? I'm kind of getting that vibe?

[Lisa] if you look at the spells tab for Jennevive

[mharm-15549] okay

[Lisa] if you right click on the spell name you get a popup for show description

[Lisa] if you click on that a popup will appear that will tell you the details of the spell

[mharm-15549] Okayu

[Lisa] range, how many creatures it affects etc

[mharm-15549] Do I need to type that in? I'm fine with it, just need bobs Permission

[Lisa] so you don't have to go to books all the time or look things up on the web

[mharm-15549] That's convenient

[Lisa] if you have down time in game once your own spells are loaded, take a look at them

[mharm-15549] Okay

[Lisa] there are some creative fun spells for all the priests

[mharm-15549] Do I get to pick them or are they randomly assigned? Other then what I get simply for following my chosen god?

[Lisa] each god has spheres that they affect

[Lisa] so you get the spells in those spheres

[Lisa] correct Bob?

[Master] yes and just loaded that list

[mharm-15549] I found a Venery Spell List

[mharm-15549] online

[mharm-15549] Is this correct?

[Lisa] jennevive's god pays no attention to healing so she doesn't have those healing spells

[Master] there is now an icon For Michael

[Master] lower left corner

[Master] spells are added

[Master] working on the rest now

[mharm-15549] Okay. I opened it

[mharm-15549] No problem

[Lisa] and I will keep talking while you work

[mharm-15549] Uh oh

[Lisa] about the potions in the party pack?

[mharm-15549] I'm not seeing any healing :0

[Lisa] potions work on the person taking them only

[mharm-15549] I liked those potions

[Lisa] so if someone takes protection for therianthropes - they are protected from the werewolf not everyone

[Lisa] but then that person can get up close and personal with it

[Lisa] but the potions are there to be used

[Lisa] if you have an idea

[Lisa] I wish someone would use the ventriloquism one for example

[Lisa] create a diversion and throw your voice somewhere

[mharm-15549] one moment. I need to look at that one

[Lisa] we have 2 of them

[mharm-15549] oh

[Lisa] indigo - my great fighter - took a hand grenade type potion and threw it at a tree that was viciously attacking us

[Lisa] he missed

[Lisa] potion go boom

[mharm-15549] LOL

[Lisa] tree laughed

[Lisa] and nearly swallowed indigo whole

[mharm-15549] That's horrible

[Lisa] eric's priest had to pull him out

[Lisa] oh an adventure isn't an adventure without something trying to eat indigo

[Lisa] he's very tasty

[Lisa] but we should use potions if we see a good use for them

[Lisa] some of ours have been sitting there for years!

[mharm-15549] Sounds like a plan. Also, some if this priests spells are a little frightening. Also interested in something called Planar shift.

[mharm-15549] Wait. Years?

[Lisa] if you google the names & D&D there are sites that tell you what they do

[Lisa] oh sure

[mharm-15549] Dear Lord. We need to use one just to see if it still works :)

[Lisa] lol

[Lisa] think people feel guilty using them

[Lisa] like indigo took protection from acid scroll when black dragon was going to attack

[mharm-15549] Yeah, but then they never get used. Also, is Orison the healing spell?

[Lisa] he was ready

[mharm-15549] If he didn't I might have haha

[Lisa] the thing picked branwyn up and indigo was sitting on the ground all protected for no good reason

[mharm-15549] That's just good preparation

[mharm-15549] LOL

[mharm-15549] Sounds like Bob

[mharm-15549] :)

[Lisa] so you just give things a shot and see how they play

[Lisa] we did use one and saved a character's life

[Lisa] he out on cursed necklace that was strangling him

[Lisa] we whipped out a melt metal type potion and he lived

[mharm-15549] Whoa

[mharm-15549] Would dispel magic have worked?

[Lisa] probably would need a remove curse

[mharm-15549] Ah

[Lisa] subtle differences

[mharm-15549] OH! I forgot. Is the Orison spell the healing one?

[mharm-15549] I have a feeling we will need that

TMO has joined the game on Fri Sep 16 19:25:03 EDT 2016

TMO is receiving the map New Residence second floor...

TMO has received the map New Residence second floor.

[mharm-15549] Hey TMO!

[Lisa] orison can be used for healing

[Lisa] Hi tmo!

[Lisa] when we are on the road - yes

[TMO] hello chums!

[Lisa] but when we are in safe places, you can use orison to make small effects - like a mage cantrip

[TMO] an update for tomorrow: I have 2 other birthday parties to attend. So I can play for an hour or two at the start, and again in the evening after I get back.

[Lisa] orison is slow healing - if it heals 8 points - takes 8 rounds to be fully effective

[Lisa] okay

[mharm-15549] Oh my gosh. BOB, would Iron Vigil replace the sleep requirement for a mage to regain their spells with Meditation?

[Lisa] happy birthdays to many

[TMO] it's noon to midnight Eastern, right?

[Lisa] correct

[mharm-15549] I might or might not be in depending on the funeral

[Lisa] for me? breakfast

[TMO] so I can be on noon to a bit before 2, and probably 8 to midnight

[Lisa] so it's me and Bob and maybe mario?

[Lisa] lol

[mharm-15549] yeah, i'm not too happy about missing either

[Lisa] marco might come by ...

[Master] back

[Master] and yes to all those questions that were answered

[Master] and need Michael to roll stats for the new characters

[Master] you roll 4d6 and drop the lowest

[TMO] new characters?

[Master] Michael is creating a new priestess

[mharm-15549] (4d6) [4d6=6,4,2,6] 18

[Master] ok

[Lisa] nice rolls!

[Master] 12, 17, 11, 16, 17, 12

[mharm-15549] Are those correct?

[mharm-15549] Sorry

[Lisa] yes

[Master] my suggestions Wisdom 17, Strength 17 Con 16, the rest are normal

[Lisa] drop the lowest of each group

[mharm-15549] Bob, if your suggesting it. That's honest to god what I will pick

[Lisa] wisdom is the priest thing so 17 is great

[mharm-15549] Okay

[TMO] another warrior priest. ;)

[mharm-15549] Hey you know what, if I can heal people that's pretty good for me :)

[mharm-15549] Also I am a tracker of sort. For humanoid creatures ;)

[Master] ok

[Master] now I need three d8

[Lisa] tmo I put a recap of the upcoming mission and was packing if you want to look and comment

[mharm-15549] I do that wrong?

[Master] and now put in your stats Michael

[Lisa] no

[mharm-15549] okay

[mharm-15549] confused

[Master] you can look at your spells, your proficiencies, your weapons

[Master] all filled in

[Master] and I gave you an extra level

[Master] normally would be 3rd level, made you 4th

[mharm-15549] Thank you.

[mharm-15549] Okay so have proficencies been pre-selected bob?

[Master] yes

[mharm-15549] okay

[Master] and writing up a bit of back story for you

[Master] Just need a name for her

[mharm-15549] hm

[TMO] Bunny

[TMO] Frederika

[TMO] April May June

[mharm-15549] stop TMO haha

[mharm-15549] huntress names.. hmmm

[Master] your last name is Inholt

[mharm-15549] Neith

[mharm-15549] (Egyptian goddess of war, hunting, weaving, and wisdom)

[mharm-15549] or Artemis take your pick, but I think that goddess name is in the greek pantheon

[TMO] Artie Neith?

[Lisa] the knights who say neith?

[mharm-15549] LOL

[mharm-15549] Wow. Don't really on my for physical weapons. Heads up

[mharm-15549] *rely

[mharm-15549] *me

[mharm-15549] jeeze

[Lisa] :)

[mharm-15549] So if I am a level 4... Does that mean I get to cast 4 spells per day?

[mharm-15549] Or did I misunderstand that?

[Lisa] no

[Lisa] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Priests

[mharm-15549] Iron Vigil is going to be an awesome spell.

[Lisa] Bob will tell you if you get bonuses to any levels

[Lisa] so a 4th level priest normall would get 3 first and 2 second level spells

[Master] putting in the details for how many spells now

[mharm-15549] So five spells?

[mharm-15549] okay

[Master] backstory there for you Michael

[Master] and you can start to role play that

[Master] mornign meeting

[Master] and NOW

[Master] grins

[mharm-15549] (hurrying through backstoryu

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Branwyn

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] The first scroll I have is for Sir Hugh

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good morning

Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) hands Hugh a scroll

[mharm-15549] Oh dear god is it red?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (id it was it wouldn't be for you :) )

[mharm-15549] (hold one)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (details on the backstory on

[mharm-15549] (one)

[mharm-15549] (on)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Neith of Inholt is on the first floor, waiting to be brought in

[TMO] Lisa - is this the expedition to find the scrolls?

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] she arrived this morning

[mharm-15549] I am back at the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (YES)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] with an introductory scroll

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oops)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (grins, Lisa is excieted to be on an adventure)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Can you read it for everyone please?

[TMO] (can't blame her. I'm caught up and ready to RP)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (Everyone is there in the room)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (im hurrying so much to read)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (except the new character for Michael, Hugh is now going to explain)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I recieved a missive

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] It says

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] That a priestess of Venery named Neith, made contact with one Kenna Westfoot

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] She has not received an answer to a query, and she sent a backup copy to myself as I travelled with Kenna here

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Apparently, Kenna has made an invitation to our Priestess, for an adventure that involves leaving and I quote "this cesspool of a city"

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Apparently

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Kenna said that?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] No our new friend

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Apparently

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] She follows a wandering, hunting god. The city disturbes her

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That's better, Kenna is usually more tactful.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] She has a scroll of recommendation

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The city disturbs many people.

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] and is willing to help in any way possible in exchange for the ambassadors permission to attend on her expedition

[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.

[Ilero]] (TMO) nods.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Furthermore,

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] she humbly requests that should she be of significant help, that the good ambassador will provide a recommendation for the Grand Celestry. She hopes that it will allow her more freedom in being allowed to leave the city more often.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We should send her in.

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Very well

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (This is weird. Hold on trying to get into a girl character?)

Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) gestures to Atribella to bring in the young woman

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Sir Hugh? am I correct that this is someone from the family of the Earl of Imholt?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol - that's why I asked. girls are difficult )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (bob did you set a new color for Neith?)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] That is correct Phillipe

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (I did not set a color, will do that after stats are finished)

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Enters softly

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (did that now, if you like it Michael)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "Ambassador, I was directed to your meeting hall? Is this a bad time?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (too dark)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (is that too dark?)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Oh god so dark

Ilero (TMO)] (too dark)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] LOL so you can change it

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (LOL one moment)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thought only you can change the PC talking colors)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (like I can only change Indigo but not branwyn)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] if Michael cannot I can fix

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Better?)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Oh shoot how do I fix this

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] i give up. sorry bob

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Is it preferences?

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I will tackle it

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] how si that?

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] test

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] perfect

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (And go Lisa :) )

Ilero (TMO)] (still a bit dark on my screen)

Ilero (TMO)] (but my eyes may adjust. I'll give it time)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (maybe one square lighter while we are talking?)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] tweaked

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] test

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] better?

MarioCS has joined the game on Fri Sep 16 20:06:22 EDT 2016

MarioCS has received the map New Residence second floor.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Hi Mario!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good morning Patron, Sister Neith?

Ilero (TMO)] (is easier than the last. will see how it goes)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'm sorry I did not get your title.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Bob, title for this god?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (hi mario :)

[MarioCS] (Hello Hello All!)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Not sure if I have a title?)

Ilero (TMO)] (Fred)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (which god again?)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Venery

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Venery

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] gettign the title now

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Title is Friend

Ilero (TMO)] (so she's a member of the Venereal priesthood?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (ick)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Arg Head Bang)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Patron)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (friend sorry)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] typing

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Friend Neith)

[MarioCS] venereal, ha!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (if 4th level)

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] and all filled in now

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] full character sheet ready to go

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] with all saves, rolls, HP etc.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I am known at the Celestry as Friend Neith, however, I am not so formal as to use that title unless it is a formal function. I am very informal unless I need to be. I am primarily a hunter, not a stuck up city offical. If I may be so bold dear Ambassador.

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Holds out recommendation

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It was kind of Kenna to recommend us. I wish she could be here to meet you.

Ilero (TMO)] (you stuck up city official, you. ;) )

Branwyn (Lisa) takes scroll and looks it over

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Yes, I have been unable to find her? I was lucky to find Sir Hugh

[Master] (refilling drinks as you meet and greet)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Is she well?

Ilero (TMO)] (... awwwwkwarrrrd..)

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs and looks over at the group

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Looks around

Ilero (TMO)] We not know

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I truly hope so.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] She is ... missing.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "Has she dissapeared?"

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "No!"

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "She was kind to me"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It appears that she was taken by a dragon.

Marisu (TMO)] She was .. taken .. by a green dragon. But we have evidence that she might still be alive We're still trying to figure out how we can find her to stage a rescue if at all possible.

Marisu (TMO)] (sorry)

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) ....A Dragon?

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] ....

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not at all - please)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is quite encouraging that it seems she is alive.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] When I was first told I thought there was little chance

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But dragons are sentient and so she must have convinced it to spare her.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "How was a dragon able to capture her? Was she alone?" "I would be happy to help you find her. Where was she taken?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That I am not certain and will not be until we can make contact with her.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "No my ambassador, I mean where was she taken from?"

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Was she alone?

Marisu (TMO)] It came while we were camped overnight in the forest north of here. It nearly killed one of our other embers, and then snatched her and flew off. We tried to follow, but the dragon apparently never landed within our range, so we couldn't find any tracks to follow.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] ...."You went into the blum wood?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh mario - there is a recap of the next adventure and I did some packing for the trip you can look at if you want)

Marisu (TMO)] Shurkural over there is a proficient tracker herself, but was unable tofind a trace of it.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "Those woods are dangerous."

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "All sorts of foul creatures"

[Marisu]] (TMO) smiles slightly. "Yes, we've managed to discover that. The hard way, unfortunately."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Sort of like the city?

Marisu (TMO)] (at least it doesn't have city officials!)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I can kill whatever I want in the wilderness. I must smile politely and only fantasize about violence in this city

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I much prefer one to the other

[Ilero]] (TMO) grins toothily.

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Smiles shyly

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So you enjoy killing?

Branwyn (Lisa) raises eyebrows

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Dangerous creatures, certainly. Sometimes I let them live. It depends. I mostly live for the hunt. Not necessarily the end of it.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We were hoping a priest with more of a healing nature would join us.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Hmmm

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) "But of course. I can do healing. Not great healing, but anyone who enters the wilderness must be prepared for the consequences."

Marisu (TMO)] (my next charactar: a necromancer! ;) I'll keep my own bodyguard squad of zombies and/or skeletos)

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) "I just don't intend to suffer those consequences."

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Grins

[Master] Neith of Inholt moved 1'04".

[Master] Neith of Inholt moved 2'00".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well, if you wish to travel with us and no one objects, I do not see any reason why you should not join us.

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Glances nervously at the ambassador. "I wont be any trouble. I swear. Surely a great woman such as yourself can understand the need to leave the politacl cesspool of the city for the peacefulness of the wildnerness?"

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Sorry Lisa)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] However, Kenna is not here.

[Master] (I will presume that Michael can see the logic behind her weapon and non-weapon choices for her, and how they can weave into a story)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] When we are in the city perhaps you should stay in your quarters

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Bob sorry, looking just thrown to the sharks haha. Trying to fly by the skin fo my pants"

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] This is not acceptable in front of my guests

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Sorry which comment responding too lisa?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] and if you think such things of myself as a diplomatic official perhaps you would stay at the Celestry when we are at home.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you keep saying we live in a cesspool

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (AH! Thanky ou)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she doesn't know you - she is not going to have you at the table with the ambassador of domvile like that)

Ilero (TMO)] Remind hye Imari.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (she has known you for 2 minutes)

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Smiles widely. "Kenna mentioned to me that you hated it here. You sometimes feel like ripping your hair out at council meetings. I can of course behave myself. I just don't prefer the city myself. I am only here for Grand Celestry."

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs "And Imari found it the best solution to go home to Carnak."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Kenna misunderstood I think.

[Ilero]] (TMO) shrugs.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Of course I would rather be home or not in this position. But hate is a strong word.

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) smiles warmly "No offense was meant Lady Branwyn."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And I have found good companions here that I would have not found otherwise

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Glances at Hugh "I can see that."

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Flushes, looks away and up

Branwyn (Lisa) turns to Hugh "You will watch ths one for Kenna?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Be responsible for her?

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Stutters "Ah...Yes, I would be happy too."

[Shurkural]] (TMO) hides a grin.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Good. Then that's settled.

[Jilly (Master)] OOO

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Please Neith. Sit and have a scone

[Jilly (Master)] Hugh now you have soomeone to watch your baby!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We have the best scones in the city.

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Baby?

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Uh

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Sure

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I can uh, watch a child

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Can it feed itself?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (brb)

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) (out of site, slaps face and drags it down)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] "I'll help you with her. She's a peculiar child"

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Blinks. "I see"

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "Thank you ambassador for your invitation"

Shurkural (TMO)] (challenging chatting as multiple chars, isn't it?)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] OOC Dear lord yes

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Doing okay so far?

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] AFK 5 min

[Master] grins

[Master] it is set so that everyone can look at the character sheet like always

[Master] to see skills, etc.

[Master] and Mario you are all caught up?

[Master] did you have input on the party pack planning?

Shurkural (TMO)] (Lisa - Indigo isn't going to be with us on this adventure, is he?)

[Master] he arrives at home tomorrow evening

[Master] so yes

[Master] mornign of 19th now, he comes to the door on the evening of the 20th

[MarioCS] I am back at the keyboard.

[Anton (MarioCS)] Sorry, Jo-Ann has me focused away right now. Im a bit lost, but i'll catch up

Shurkural (TMO)] (I did not know that)

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

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (back)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So there is an issue that I should bring up, Marisu.

Shurkural (TMO)] Yes ma'am?

Shurkural (TMO)] oops

Marisu (TMO)] Yes ma'am?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] This trip with all the travel involved may take a couple of weeks to accomlish.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So one of us must stay here.

[Marisu]] (TMO) smiles. "I guess you don't mean you, again, right?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The favor for the Guild was meant to be a lark.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] This trip is going to ensure we will be able to answer Lord Hightower's request of me.

[Marisu]] (TMO) nods sadly. "That didn't quite turn out the way we planned."

Marisu (TMO)] I'll be happy to stay and hold down the fort for you, with Philippe's invaluable help, of course.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am worried about sending the group away again frankly

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would appreciate it.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And during this time, you can work on completing your training.

Marisu (TMO)] Will the Guild grant me a mentor during this time?

[Master (to GM only)] Ambassador of Domvile moved 16'09".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Jennevive, you can find someone who can help Marisu?

[Master] and restart Klooge every so often

[Master] after everyone is settled back in

[mharm-15549] I'm AFK For a moment

Lisa has received the map New Residence second floor.

[Master] back Lisa?

[Lisa] think so

[Master] ok

[Master] so which guild did you mean TMO? and or Lisa?

[Master] before Jennevive answers

[TMO] (Wizzies. Marisu don't know no priesty spells)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I also said that we usually pay for training and the Guild would most likely have someone to train for a price

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Whichever you wished to focus on first

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Jenn was for the diplomacy)

[TMO] (aha yes - I'd forgotten about that. she needs both)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it's a wisdom thing I think)

[TMO] (thanks for reembering)

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I will be happy to stay here at the residence and teach Marisu some diplomany

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] diplomancy

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

[TMO] I am back at the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You don't wish to join us? Lord Branadarus will be disappointed.

Marisu (TMO)] I'm sure this will prove to be soe very interesting lessons.

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] If Marisu is the Acting Ambassador

[Branwyn (Lisa)] He mentioned he hoped you would.

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] then I should be here to represent the Queen

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I appreciate that.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can write a scroll for you to take to Midguard asking him to find someone appropriate for you.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (how do you unbold? every time I hit enter I see >B> and I don't know how I did that)

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Are you leaving any of the apprentices here? or are you taking them along with you so they learn

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (cntrl B turns it on and off)

[Branwyn (Lisa)]

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (does it look bold to you?)

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] mot now

Marisu (TMO)] (no)

[mharm-15549] Alright back

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (just can't control my fingers - they create mischief on the keyboard)

[mharm-15549] lol

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (does Anton have an opinion on bringing more apprentices along to help out?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh ...I'm not sure any of them want to go into the woods after all the stories.

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] That would be a good reason to take them with you

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] They need to learn stern lessons

Branwyn (Lisa) looks over at them "Anyone want to go on a trip?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Homer must remain here though. He is too young.

[Ilero]] (TMO) grins toothilyagain. "Some t'em need haircuts anyways."

[Howard Plum (Master)] Of course I will go

[Homer (Master)] NO I'M NOT

[Johan the Apprentice (Master)] I always serve

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'm sorry, but I am not taking you into the woods with dragons and giants.

[Shurkural]] (TMO) elbows Ilero sharply.

[Homer (Master)] Jill went!

[Homer (Master)] She was fine

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I know you do Johan, but I give you a choice always.

[Jilly (Master)] BUt I was saving them

[Branwyn (Lisa)] She is much older than you are Homer.

[Marisu]] (TMO) starts to reach up to run her fingertips across her hair, but stops herself.

Jilly (Master) stands up straight

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I would be happy Johan if you wished to stay and work with Homer.

[Jilly (Master)] I can watch over Homer if he really wants to go

[mharm-15549] I am back at the keyboard.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Then you and he can show me all you learned when I come back

Branwyn (Lisa) winks at Marisu "You too!"

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Jilly, I admire your enthusiasm, but we've been extremely lucky. In part to you, but it's a risk we don't want to take. We value you too much

[Johan the Apprentice (Master)] I can assist with Marisu

[Jilly (Master)] exactly Hugh, that is why you need me there, so I can save you quicker next time

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That would be of great service and a relief to me.

[Jilly (Master)] look how fast it was the last time I saved you

[Marisu]] (TMO) nods. "Thank you, Johan."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And Howard, I am most pleased you wish to come.

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Smiles. Well, the final word is the ambassadors. She will decide

Jilly (Master) looks at Marisu

[Jilly (Master)] You need me to go

[Jilly (Master)] so you don't need to send me out to save them later on

Aunt Jennevive (Master) raises an eyebrow

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) She has Spirit

[Marisu]] (TMO) smiles. "I'm only going to be filling in the Ambassador's place here. I still don't outrank her, Jilly."

Jilly (Master) looks at Branwyn

[Jilly (Master)] I do not think she is ready

[Jilly (Master)] she can't make up her mind like you do

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Marisu is simply practicing her diplomacy since i am sitting righ here across from her. I am sure she shall be just fine after I am gone.

[Marisu]] (TMO) smirks. "Fine. Jilly, you need to stay here so that any visitors will have fresh scones whenever they should show."

[Jilly (Master)] Well of course she will have Jennivive

[Jilly (Master)] yes

[Jilly (Master)] well

[Jilly (Master)] wait

[Jilly (Master)] I

Jilly (Master) sighs

Branwyn (Lisa) whispers to Tiberius "I would let her come"

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] whispers back, are you sure she is not coming?

[Marisu]] (TMO) smiles. "Besides, if trouble should arise, who would I send if you were already there?"

Branwyn (Lisa) laughs loudly

[Master] Well of course,

[Jilly (Master)] Well of course,

[Jilly (Master)] and if I am there then I will get there even faster

Marisu (TMO)] But you won't be able to take our enemies by surprise that way.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (mario - are you here?)

Marisu (TMO)] You're our secret weapon, Jilly. You don't use your elite forces on scouting missions.

[Jilly (Master)] Anton wants me to come

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I would offer that perhaps after the dinner tonight?

Marisu (TMO)] I won't force you to stay, Jilly. But the decision is ultiately theirs, and we will have to abide by it.

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] the Ambassador from Domvile will be here

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am glad for that.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) (to Master only)] Just noticed Stewardship and Administration. I like those alot sorry I didn't notice them earlier. I might be able to help more around the house then I thought.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh Jennevive, you said you would speak to the Celestry about those scrolls. Did you learn anything we should know before we meet the Ambassador again?

[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) (to mharm-15549 only)] nods and the backstory explains it a bit, and I look forward to her smackign people with her shepards crook

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) (to Master only)] I like the way you think Bob

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I have some thoughts on them

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] They are looking for military treasties

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Just don't tell me it's for their silly crusade

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] which is in line with

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] smiles

[Branwyn (Lisa)] My apologies. In interrupted you. Please go on.

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] You have hit upon the key point as always

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I really don't understand this preoccupation with killing people who believe in forces only slightly different from their own

[Branwyn (Lisa)] A complete waste of energy

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But that doesn't tell us anythng about the scrolls' last owner

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Isn't it frustrating?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] He was a Paladin

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] that is all you need to know

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes it is Neith

[Branwyn (Lisa)] All I need to know?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] There is more than one

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh what is that name ...

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Indigo would know. He went on about them enough

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The Arm of Cahus?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] yes

Branwyn (Lisa) surprised "indigo would be proud of me."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So this Paladin was in the brotherhood?

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] must have been

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That might help jog a memory

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Holy Warriors are very few and without support it would be very hard to get the funding to build anything

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] It is not unheard of for a Paladin to be a follower of someone other than Cahus,

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but I do not know of any well known ones currently

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do we have any maps of the river route to Domvile?

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] We do not need map

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] I can sail us there, it is only up river

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I have a present for mario when he is back so tell us please)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You wish to come to? I did not hope to ask.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (too)

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] You said you were sailing, without Master Indigo you do not have anyone

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] of course I will

Branwyn (Lisa) turns to Branadarus "I thought you wished to be my captain?"

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] Of course I am

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We shall be surrounded by capable men of the seas. We are getting off to a good start already.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you Joseph.

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] we will be a formidable group

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes we will.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Now Philippe what is your report on the scroll transformation issue?

[Lord Branadarus (Master)] What are we carrying with us?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I hope we have made progress.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (OOC Bob highly suggested we bring a pack animal. Furthermore, Nieth has Animal handling. I think it would be a good idea)

Marisu (TMO)] (Donkey Hotee)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh I have been packing. You can see what I have put together so far downstairs

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes - I was thinking of what we did for the temple adventure - sorry tmo knows)

[MarioCS] I'm back, for a bit...

[MarioCS] so sorry for the delay, my apologies to all of you

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we rented a mule and small cart that can traverse bad terrain much better than a big wagon)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we will do now then to make sure)

Branwyn (Lisa) sees Anton come back from the platter full of scones and nods to Joseph

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Anton.

[Master] Joseph Shortkin moved 3'00".

[MarioCS] I can't get over how well Miss Jilly can cook...

[MarioCS] Yes, m'Lady?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I found something while I was getting ready for this trip that may suit you.

Joseph Shortkin (Master) hands Branwyn the large wrapped package

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (about 4 feet long)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] A found a dagger you might find useful

[MarioCS] Me, M'Lady? I do not require any more from you than what you already done

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Go ahead

MarioCS takes present

[MarioCS] really, you shouldn't have

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well ... it's not really a reward.

MarioCS tears at the paper (?)

[MarioCS] Oh My!!!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] But as you are proficient already, it shall give you the greatest benefit

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it is a magical dagger)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (a giant's dagger and so it is the size of a long sword)

[MarioCS] But m'Lady, i'm not deserving, after I failed the entire house, lost our weapons,...

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (to you)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] No you may not be.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Consider it a chance to redeem yourself

MarioCS examines the dagger/sword with awe

Branwyn (Lisa) smiles

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We need magical weapons

MarioCS looks Branwn with sheer gratitude, and kneels

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If i do not allow someone to use it, it will sit idle in the basement and what good does that do anyone.

[MarioCS] I shall, m''Lady

[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] You should swear to protect Branwyn

[MarioCS] (Thanks, Lisa! Where shall I lose this one?? lol)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So any weres or other creatures that require magic to fight, you shall take lead

[MarioCS] That I have, Miss Jenn, since I stepped foot here as myself, I have

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We've had enough swearing for one day.

[Master] (lol, go out and lose a magical weapon, ok, so send them out again, they lose a character..... sure give them another magic weapon! grins)

[MarioCS] I will, m'Lady at all costs

Marisu (TMO)] (this time we'll lose a leader)

[MarioCS] )Anton will never learn this way!!! lol)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you don't take a negs to use it which might cancel out the plus for the magical)

[Master] I will fix your character sheet Mario

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it really doesn't do any good sitting in the party pack)

[Master] but I need a name for the weapon

[MarioCS] The Redeemer

Marisu (TMO)] Gidagger

Marisu (TMO)] Giagger

[MarioCS] Giagger, i like that!

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Joseph, do you think it would be best to arrange for the mule and cart here and take them with us or to acquire them in Domvile?

[Master] (plus 1 right Lisa?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (don't know)

[Master] AHHHH that one!

[Master] gotcha

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no one had long sword prof when we found it)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (been sitting in party pack for year or so)

[Master] Ok so Mario Anton's sheet is updated with the new weapon, but the magic part is blank till you test it in combat

Marisu (TMO)] (-3 cursed)

[MarioCS] (can i use Bran's comment about using it against Weres as an actual clue?

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] you can feel free to use any clues you wish

[MarioCS] Thanks fo rthe vagueness, should have known better...

[MarioCS] lolol

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] Branwyn, I would take our own carts

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We have carts?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] and we could take one or two mules

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (branwyn doesn't do any of the shopping)

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] it will be planting season soon

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] so it might be harder to convince someone to part with their own mules

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am sure you can handle it.

[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] Lord Branadarus will be able to assist me in what you will be comfortable with

[Branwyn (Lisa)] If there are things you want to bring that are not gathered already, let me know or add it.

[Master] Michael are you back?

Branwyn (Lisa) looks confused for a moment then nods

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I am back, but I may need a few minutes soon

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Family planning

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Jilly, you will cook up some food to take on the ship?

[Master] quick planning then

[Master] for tomorrow at Noon, Mario will be here at my house, the first live player in years

[Master] Lisa will be on, TMO said yes too

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yay!

[Master] Michael will you make it ?

[Master] at Noon?

[Master] 10 AM for you

[Branwyn (Lisa)] 9 am PDT

[Master] Breakfast with BOB

[Branwyn (Lisa)] AZ is Pac time isn't it without daylight savings or is it the opposite?

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I may be. I'm sorry I just don't know

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I'm in Utah right now

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I get confused

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Funeral

[Branwyn (Lisa)] oh

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] one momenyt

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sorry - knew one and missed the other)

[Master] just want to be sure who will be around

[Master] so Mario and TMO and Lisa I think you should do a bit of out of character planning now

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I think I wont be able to make it, but I promise I will try

[Master] just want to know Michael, so we start and do not feel bad about missing anyone

[Master] you can show when ever you can

[Lisa] Of course - you do what you want/need to do

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Well go ahead without me, then if I show up it will (hopefully) be a pleasant suprise :)

[Lisa] and people come in and come out for these marathons

[Master] grins

[Lisa] of course it will be

[Lisa] especially if you are all half dead lying in a thicket

[Lisa] :D

[Master] so as I understand it, the plan is to have all the group together, Indigo returns, etc.

[Lisa] no kenna so no thicket but you get the idea

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Thank you for that :). Cant wait for this adventure

[Master] pile everyone into the Knarr,

[Master] sail north

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I have Wyvern Watch. I'm cool without the brambles

[Master] travel across Domvile to place X

[Lisa] sweet

[Master] then from place X explore to find lost keep

[Master] have mules and carts

[Lisa] and shovels

[Master] beyond that I do not know what you want to take/plan/etc.. other than the list on the party pack

[Lisa] and the room scroll

[Master] which can be expanded etc.

[Lisa] the only thing I want to say that I haven't yet

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I havea request for some items

[Lisa] about the save kenna mission

[Lisa] okay

[Lisa] you first

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] ((scrap of pillow ticking, a feather, and a pebble that the caster has kept in his pocket for 7 nights.) These are material componants for Nap. A spell that allows full nights rest in one hour. Spells are memorized.

[Lisa] oh - that's your personal spell stuff

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I probably don't have pebbles in my pocket, but this might last a couple weeks

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Okay

[Lisa] welcome to the wonderful world of spellcasting

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Bob, Can i get those ingredients somewhere?

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] lol

[Master] many common items yes

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Okay your turn Lisa)

[Lisa] as your character comes in she should have a supply of her own components

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Okay. I'll ask bob later what I do and don't have :) )

[Lisa] a practicing caster would not be empty handed

[Master] and you should make a list on your Notes page Michael of what you need

[Lisa] and this is morning and your character would have all day to run and get what you need

[Master] a couple are rare and you would not have, Augery springs to mind, needs 2,000 gp sticks

[Lisa] ok well not that one

[Lisa] but I don't think augery will be needed in this trip

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Lol, okay thanks Bob. I'll see what I need and you can tell me what I have)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Okay i'm AFK for about 15 min.

[Master] Mario? TMO? input?

Marisu (TMO)] none yet. my people are as equipped as they can be

Marisu (TMO)] Ilero still has his flail - he only loaned it to Dom for the one fight.

[Lisa] about kenna

[Lisa] since srping is not here it is VERY hard to ask her where her character is

[Lisa] then I started thinking about situation in general

[Lisa] what do you think?

[Lisa] baby dragon takes kenna from the way southwest edge of Blum Woods

[Lisa] How far from home does baby dragon fly in the wee hours?

[Lisa] to find the keep we have to go up river north to Domvile and Cordrawn Hills

[Lisa] far from there

[Lisa] I don't think Kenna will be in a cave where we are going

Marisu (TMO)] that would be a coincidence

[Lisa] so do we do this quest and return home to the save kenna mission?

[Lisa] is that okay?

[TMO] yes

[TMO] Kenna takes priority over magic weapons

[TMO] which is our other main mission now, right?

[Lisa] no

[TMO] or am I missing one?

[Lisa] our main mission is the military scrolls so we can solve Lord Sam's parentage questions

[TMO] that's the one we're going out on now, right?

[Lisa] yes

[TMO] right. scrolls, kenna, magic weapons

[Lisa] yes

[TMO] sorry, I'd already put the scrolls as 'done', so two were left.

[Lisa] oh yeah! we have a bugbear in the basement

[TMO] Marisu will remember to feed it

[Master] chuckles was waiting to see ifyou left with it still down there

[TMO] Jennevieve and her can interrogate it some more too.

[Lisa] we lost Sere so the speak language thing is not in the house any more

[TMO] if she has a Tongues spell?

[TMO] or something similar

[TMO] Marisu only has Comprehend Lang, not speak it.

[Master] yes she does

[Lisa] well then

[Lisa] ok I feel better

[Lisa] was trying to think of how to work that whole thing in

[TMO] brb

[Lisa] In my head I have pretty much given up on the lost magic weapons

[Master] everythign is solvable

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I believe I can speak to monsters

[Master] Indigo moved 63'08".

[Master] and so

[Master] anything else to accomplish before dinner starts?

[TMO] whee... unhappy children. they did not get everything picked up in time.

[TMO] sigh

[Lisa] (I don't think bugbears are monsters

[Lisa] uh oh

[Lisa] nothing else for me Bob

[Master] TMO's children are not monsters

[Master] nor are they bugbears

[Master] that I know of

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (lol)

[Lisa] I was speaking to Michael

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (oops not that it matters. Way outta my level haha)

[Lisa] but if you think of anything you want to add to the party pacl - just put it on the website

[Lisa] I might lessen the amout of coinage and gems we take

[Lisa] I was thinking of dragon negotiations for Kenna

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (will do. have a small list but cannot really be fully in game right now. lol. Still talking to family)

[Lisa] but then there could be other dragons

[Lisa] just post it and we will look at it

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I'm ready whenever you are)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (or I will get some ice)

[Master] go get ice

[Master] so we get at least one more person back

[Branwyn (Lisa)] back

[Master] here

[Master] dinner?

[Master] just so you know it has been 47 days from the dragon returning in Domvile during the Bag of Clouds adventure

[Master] so a month and a half

[Lisa] ok

[Master] which would mean 1 of the payment dates would have passed

[Master] first of every month

[Master] when TMO is back he would have characters there at that encounter

[Lisa] but that isn't really our problem

[Lisa] we didn't sign the treaty

[Master] nods,

[Lisa] but duly warned :)

[Master] anyone else?

[Master] and so?

[Master] ready?

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] almost

[Lisa] ok

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] alright. hung up. were good

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Now Neith, most Ambassadors are quite comfortable here and think the city is most wonderful. We need to keep that in mind while we attempt to gain information.

[Master] Neith of Inholt moved 1'01".

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Think of it as a different style of combat

Lisa is receiving the map New Residence first floor...

Lisa has received the map New Residence first floor.

Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549) Perks up. "A hunt for information?"

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] "That might be fun!"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Exactly

[Master] Ambassador not in the room for this conversation

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no that was meant to be an aside)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but now we eat?)

[Master] you can have him in the room when ever you want

[Master] last bit of pre dinner conversations and planning for how to get info

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (I don't know what your general plan is Lisa, but Hugh has persuasion if you think it will help.)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I have a general plan but if you see me flailing - jump in with words and a roll)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (And, Neith has stewarrdship. She can impress others with Hospitality HAHA.)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I think I can make it sound innocent enogh)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Alright :) )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (like I said - jump in when you want - it's a dinner party)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (No Problem, is there anything else we need to discuss? I can help fully now.)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (your characters haven't met him I don't think so if you have questions abiout domvile, cordrawn hills, etc)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I wasn't going to say we are going to dig up scrolls)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (I don't know about the ambassador but Hugh has met the Duke fo Domville)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (okay)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (Lol)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so you can say how happy you were to meet his dukeness in person)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (he is the kind of man you never forget)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (OOC Personally I wanted to strangle the guy, but...)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (ready?)

[Master] always

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] (I'll do my best)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ambassador, it is so good of you to join us once again.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I am happy to Ambassador

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I missed you at the Feast of the Sparrows

Branwyn (Lisa) eyes flicker to Jennevive "I am sorry to have missed it. Was it a joyous feast?"

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] Of course we were appropriately reserved..... but yes it was a very good event,

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] the wine flowed well

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Of course.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] what brings about the invititation tonight?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Well, how would Duke Brandish take to my visiting him in Domville?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I imagine that he would receive you well

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I can send word that you wish to visit and ask when an appropriate time

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is encouraging news.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] You might now know this, but I am a bit of a historian myself.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] This is excellent, you must let me borrow your cook

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am well versed in Drillian's local history but .. pardon?

Ambassador of Domvile (Master) gestures at his plate

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (This might be easier then we thought)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh yes. Thank you.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am woefully lacking in knowledge in this area.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have been studying in the Celestry library about the Arm of Cahus of the Kayugan faith.

[TMO] (I am back, sorry)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] There is a fine church and tomb dedicated to the order in Drillian's citadel in Vilmar.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Catcombs)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I have not seen those of course

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] it must be very interesting to have been sent to so far many places

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So I was suprised when I was reading that a great paladin of the order was in service to the Brandish family!

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) (to Master only)] If i am a priestess, and am part of the grand celestry, does that mean I am allowed in the library without an escort?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master) (to mharm-15549 only)] yes

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (dinner with domvile - chime in when you wish)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Should I flatter him?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] Yes the Brandish family has supported the church for many many years

[TMO] (anything I need to know right now, or good to improv?)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (We are trying to gather information from the ambassador of Domville. It's going well right now)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Feel free to hop in though, we are trying to make a good impression.)

Marisu (TMO)] (oh, Marisu has the dice for that)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] "Can I get you some dessert scones M'Lord?"

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I was hoping the Duke might be able to tell us more of this paladin and of the influence of the Order in Domvile and Cordrawn Hills.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] it is well before my time of course

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] as I understand Shoe Brandish

[Marisu]] (TMO) listens attentively to everything the Duke has to say.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] a brother of the old Duke

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Transcribing in the corner if Bob is okay with it

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (sure)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (good to have a record)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] his son was the one who became a Paladin

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] and collected many of the rules of warfare

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh he was a Brandish. The family must be so proud.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] yes the Son of Shoe was a great warrior

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do you remember his name?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] Art Brandish

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] that branch of the family ended a generation ago

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] "That's a shame, sounds like a noble line"

Marisu (TMO)] I love hearing the history of the old families. They are a key to understanding the world today.

Marisu (TMO)] (charmcharmcharmcharm)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] as far as I understand Art Brandish was knighted

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] and retired to his studies

[Branwyn (Lisa)] By the Prince of Dryads Lair at that time?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] he released a treastie on war

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I beleive by the Grand Celestry

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I meant who knighted him - the Celestry?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (that is what he just implied)

Branwyn (Lisa) glances at Jennevive "I didn't know they did that. I know the Orders ahve their titles. This is fascinating."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So Sir Art must have fought in many wars.

Marisu (TMO)] (have we said how long ago this was?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I imagine so

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (current duke's father's brother's son? which sounds a bit too young to me)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (another generation older Lisa)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (ok sorry - missed a step)

Marisu (TMO)] (current duke's grandfather's nephew)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (grandfather or great grandfather, it has been unclear, but that side of the family has died off now)

Marisu (TMO)] (SO THEY THINK!!!!)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (LOL)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I read that Sir Art retired to a keep at the Domvile's border. Is it a shrine to the faith now?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I have not heard of anything on the border,

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] there is a shrine at the Dukes Manor

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] where several members of the Brandish family are venerated

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] the only keep I have heard of in the story was in the wilderness

[Branwyn (Lisa)] To guard against invadors?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] perhaps that is the reason

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I do not know of where it was

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] now the western borders are more dangerous

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] Oh?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] so perhaps there would be a reason for it

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] what is the interest in family history Ambassador?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] The family history was actually quite unintentional when I began.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I do wish Sir Indigo was here to join us. He shall be most dismayed.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] He is a most devoted admirer of the Arm of Cahus. We practically had to drag him away from Vilmar.

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Smiles. "Sir Indigo loves history. He is always fascinated with these tales."

[Branwyn (Lisa)] And when I found myself here in the very center of the Kayugan faith, I thought I should do some research to surprise hime

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Then when I ran across the story of a great paladin of the order so close I kept looking.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] So would the Duke be terribly put out if we went to visit in the next few days?

[Marisu]] (TMO) nods in support of Branwyn and Hugh's statements.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Og course the journey there takes a while.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I can send a request for you certainly

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (typing getting worse)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That would be most wonderful. I appreciate that greatly.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I will have Jilly send you some baskets from the kitchen.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] smiles it would be a great many baskets, it is a journey of 150 miles to the Dukes demese

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] the Manor is on the river of course

[Branwyn (Lisa)] We could dock there?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] certainly

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] you met the Duke there previously

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] did you not?

Branwyn (Lisa) sighs

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am afraid that was the former anbassador.

Marisu (TMO)] The illustrious Ambassador Waverlyn.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (will we ever be truly rid of her?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I thought you negociated a treaty for the Duke?

Marisu (TMO)] (as soon as we call the Ghostbusters)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (I don't remember. Do we need to look it up guys? I think we negotiated it, but we didn't have anything else to do with it correct?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] That was Uncle Tristan and Countess Marisu here.

[Branwyn (Lisa)] I was not able to attend myself.

Marisu (TMO)] (Domville sounded familiar, but that was a loong time ago)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (January of 2015 to May of 2015)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Friend Neith, did you have a question about the western borders?

Marisu (TMO)] (the gnomes attacking with the illusion of the dragon - the treaty was with the airship people)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Ambassador, this is a priestess new to our household

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (well that would be July when the dragon returned after you negociated the treaty, but that was only 47 game days ago)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Switching characters one moment)

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] It is a pleasure to meet you M'lord

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master) (to MarioCS only)] nods

Ambassador of Domvile (Master) nods

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] How badly has the western border gotten. I know its a rought land, but last I heard, it was still passable. What dangers have encrouched upon the area? Any rumors you may know about from home?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I am not certain of particular dangers

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] the Duke has complained of gnomes investing certain areas

mharm-15549 is receiving the map New Residence first floor...

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] infesting

mharm-15549 has received the map New Residence first floor.

[mharm-15549] I am back at the keyboard.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] he has a hunting lodge out there that he visits I know

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (a gnome infestation)

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Barks a short laugh

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I have never been out there

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] you said you have been there Sir Hugh?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] "M'lord remind me one day when we have some time, we have a story of the trouble of gnomes we have had in Domville."

Branwyn (Lisa) is glad Brother Foto was not here to hear this

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Also, it is a most pleasant area, but yes, many gnomes have been causing mischief around the area

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] *Test

Marisu (TMO)] Very crafty with illusions, they are.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (nods, he is sitting and eating, listenign to you)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] The gnomes created an illusion of a dragon. We fired a ballistae bolt at it. THe bolt went through the dragon and struck a dear friend. He uh, didn't survive the injury. We have no love for the Gnomes in the area.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] SO you know of the dangers of the western front

Marisu (TMO)] We actually travelled there by airship. So that was the western border of Domville then?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Gnomes are the worst danger?

Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) Smiles widely. I guess we do. It's amazing how something so small can cause so much havoc.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] However

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I believe Friend Neith meant obvious rumors or local horror stories that might have a basis in truth for the area. You can understand from our love of history. Local legends. Things of that nature.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I am pleased you are interested in Domvile's history

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] it is one of great service to the King

Marisu (TMO)] From everything we've heard so far, it certainly is.

[Neith of Inholt (mharm-15549)] I appreciate your humoring me. I enjoy exploring and this is a facsinating story.

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] I will gladly send along word to the Duke that you wish to visit

[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Care for more scones M'Lord?

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I'm good except for chit chat but anyone else have questions?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] eagerly eating

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (He doesn't seem to have any ideas for legends, myths, or other current information. Do you think we asked properly?)

Marisu (TMO)] (let me do a quick ooc recap, make sure I've got the gist. We've discovered that Sam is a Brandish, iirc. So now we've got a prospective ancestry for him, and a paladin whose scrolls we hvae to fetch to get more info?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no)

Marisu (TMO)] (yep. good thing I recapped. :) )

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (no to me or marisu)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I suppose it could swing around that way in a strange Bob twist)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I think you asked properly IMO)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Okay. That's good)

Marisu (TMO)] (thought we found he was a brandish. I could easily mistaken though. that was just the thougth that popped into my head when Brandish got mentioned)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (celestry promised to do the research on Sam's parentage if we bring them 3 scrolls from the lost paladin keep)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Yep)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we just found out the lost paladin is a brandish)

Marisu (TMO)] (right - the war treatise. But the name is what caught my attention)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but we know nothing about Sam or Ronwith until we return with the scrolls)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (which name?)

Marisu (TMO)] (Brandish. Why was I thinking Sam was a Brandish? Hunh. I remember Ronwith now too. My stupid memory..... sigh)

Marisu (TMO)] (someone reserve me a room at the old folks home stat)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (So, what next? Move down the list?)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (it's ok - San is ronwith)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Nah TMO. I'm like that too)

Marisu (TMO)] (gah., now I wanna know where I got Brandish from? ;) )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (well Silver meet was for Kenna - we can do that when we get back)

Marisu (TMO)] (sorry for the confusion)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (from the first Domvile adventure?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (there is one key thing you are missing)

Marisu (TMO)] (just one? we're ahead of the game then!)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (the guy you played chess with was Duke Brandish of Domvile)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (end of the line thing?)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (I cannot think of it darn it. What are we missing. It's going to drive me crazy)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (TMO, LIsa?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (someone with diplomacy can make a check)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we get another shot at questions with the Duke himself unless what we missed is a pre-duke issue)

Marisu (TMO)] (can I roll half a die?)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] one moment. I don't know if I have that

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (grins, no)

Marisu (TMO)] (can I go grab Tristan and roll him?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] LOL

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Hm

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] would knowledge work for rememvering something?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (I will allow Marisu and Hugh to make intuition checks)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we missed the fact that the ambassador is penniless and starving and so that is why he is scarfing up all our food?)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Hugh D'Ambray: INU check: (d20) [1d20=16] 16 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] welp that didn't work

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Marisu?

Marisu (TMO)] [Marisu]]: INU check: (d20) [1d20=10] 10 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 16!!

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Halleluhja

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] *spelling

Marisu (TMO)] you roll 16, need 10. I roll 10, need 16.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] lol

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master) (to TMO only)] the Duke never talks with non-noble people and also the ambassador said he would send word, but also mentioned it is 150 miles away, are you planning on waiting for an answer before you go there? discuss out of his hearing perhaps?

Marisu (TMO) (to Master only)] the word & distance thing I'd actually thought of, but didn't think it politic to mention "can we go tomorrow?". I'd forgotten about the non-noble thing

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master) (to TMO only)] I would suggest asking him back to dinner tomorrow and then discussing when he leaves

Marisu (TMO)] (gang - want me to do it IC or OOC?)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] :)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] Lisa? Michael? Mario?

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] the gang's all here

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] ??

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (OOC)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (doesn't matter as long as we can twist it to our advantage)

Marisu (TMO)] (probably for the best - Idoubt Marisu memorised Message today)

Marisu (TMO)] (although an excuse to leave the table is easily manufactured)

Marisu (TMO)] (ooc - this is something I actually noticed, but hadn't brought it up. He's going to send word 150 miles away that we'd like to visit. But we're planning on leaving in just 2 or 3 days from now)

Marisu (TMO)] (messages take weeks or months to travel usually)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (oh that! I caught that)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Hm. That could be a problem

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I didn't good job

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we arrive)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we say we told the ambassador)

Marisu (TMO)] (that's about what I figured)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (word did not arrive?)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] LOL

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] So really, we are kind of making it his problem? Haha I love it

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we can't wait for the homing pigeon)

Marisu (TMO)] (2nd thing - the Duke of Domville won't speak with non-nobles. Remember? That's why Marisu had to do the negotiations instead of Tristan)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Some payback after that farcical mission

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Neith is a noble)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I think the Prince and the Marquessa will be okay)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (actually Tristan was a holy warrior and he talked with him, kneeled at his feet even.... hint hint )

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (and grins at Lisa, the first time she has liked having the title)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and the other Prince)

Marisu (TMO)] (You want ILERO to talk with him???? What drugs are you on? O_o_

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Yeah, they got along well. Same faith I believe. However if Tristan isn't here, he wont be much use to us I'm afraid

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] )

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (LOL)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (but good for introductions)

[Ambassador of Domvile (Master)] (this will be so much fun, grins)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Neith is very mucha wilderness person, but she has the skills for this I swear. Sterwardship and Administration and She is a noble. I think I an make it work)

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (Prince here, Prince there)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Or that. I think we got this

[Branwyn (Lisa)] (and Kayugan priest - he likes that)

Marisu (TMO)] (holds nose up in the air. Oh... a "Duke". How quaint.)

[Master] chuckles

[Branwyn (Lisa)] lol

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (lol)

[Master] so dinner is over?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (We can send him some scones to-go.)

[Master] or was Marisu inviting him back?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (If he really is penniliess)

[Lisa] that was guess by how he was eating

Marisu (TMO)] (that was another thing Bob mentioned - inviting the Duke back the next night.)

Marisu (TMO)] (might not be a bad idea. get him firmly on our side in case of diplomatic issues later on)

[Master] and or who ever else you would like to meet with over dinner before leaving for an extended trip

[Master] you can take as many days as you want,

[Master] not forcing you out of the city

[Marisu]] (TMO) is booted out by Bob

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] LOL

[Master] but officially now the new story arc is called War by Art

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Well if we are taking as long as we want, cant we just wair for indigo?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] But in all seriousness, what else is on the agenda

Marisu (TMO)] (is the name of the castle where it's kept Suntzoo?)

[Master] Art the Son of Shoe, and his treasties on War

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] LOL I got it

Marisu (TMO)] Son Shoe. gotcha

[Marisu]] (TMO) applauds.

Marisu (TMO)] I'd noticed the names were odd, but hadn't put it together yet.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] So number four on Lisa's list was Follow up for Jennevieve

[Lisa] very good

[Lisa] did that

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Okay

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Question on Docking the Knarr?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I think we covered that

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Last on the list is finalize packing.

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Do we have a means of transportation that has been finalized?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I believe we are taking a mule and small cart

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Is that correct?

Marisu (TMO)] (one of our carts, and a mule from the Mule Shop)

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Okay

Marisu (TMO)] Mules 'R Us

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Do we have food and water for 150 miles of hell?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Bob is that 150 miles to where we are going roughly?

Marisu (TMO)] Atribella takes care of supplies, iirc

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Okay

[Lisa] can hunters fish?

[Master] yes

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Do we have armor we need and weapons that we are taking?

[Lisa] do you?

[Lisa] that is your stuff

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I do, just trying to help finalize stuff.

[Master] you have weapons, it has only been a few days of the weeks needed for any of the new armor

[Master] beyond that yes

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Okay

[Master] we will roll for magic items for Neith in the morning

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Lisa cleared us for potions correct?

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Oh I forgot about that. thanks bob

[Lisa] oh I should look at your spells

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Although I may not be on

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] I will post some supplies I will need for spells a little later

[Lisa] ok will bring some of the cure poison type potions too

Marisu (TMO)] Ilero has those two Elixirs of Health

[Lisa] (I took everything out of everyone's pockets and returned them to the main party pack

[Lisa] then packed from there

[Lisa] not even with a pickpocketing skill

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] Can Hugh have permission to take his standard pack that he takes everwhere?

Marisu (TMO)] k - Ilero had 5 consumable items in his inventory. I'll take them out

[Lisa] the party pack page said some stuff was still from the beach trip

Marisu (TMO)] Scroll Prot-Undead, 2x Elixir of Health; Potion of Gaseous Form, Oil of Armor

[Lisa] I figured he would have returned them when he came home

[Lisa] did he want to keep them?

[Lisa] kind of the benefit pkaywise for the party pack

[TMO (to GM only)] Character sheet for [Ilero]] modified: Consumable Magic Items - DELETED: Protection—Undead, null, null, null. DELETED: Elixir of Health, null, null, null. DELETED: Elixir of Health, null, null, null. DELETED: Potion of Gaseous Form, null, null, null. DELETED: Oil of Armour, null, null, null. DELETED: null, null, null, null.

[TMO] nah. they're off his list now.

[Lisa] so if you are at a birthday party all PCs have access

[TMO] can put back whatever he carries

[TMO] Shur and Marisu had nothing in theirs

[Lisa] is the only reason I like the pack idea

[Lisa] it will be on the cart and anyone can dive in

[TMO (to GM only)] Character sheet for [Shurkural]] modified: Magic Item Summary - CHANGED: Bastard Sword, +1 Silvered -- Location: lost to bugbear slavers (null).

[Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Neith of Inholt modified: Notes - CHANGED.

[TMO] no problemo

[Master] Pages are up for the Birthday Game

[TMO] gnite!

[Master] hey there

[TMO] k. had a thought earlier

[Master] [Shurkural]] XP award: 200. Next level in 28287.

[Master] [Ilero]] XP award: 400. Next level in 49768.

[Master] [Marisu]] XP award: 300. Next level in 1062.

[Master] Anton XP award: 400. Next level in 19503.

[Master] Branwyn XP award: 400. Next level in 351380.

[Master] Hugh D'Ambray XP award: 400. Next level in 38237.

[TMO] have mentioned a couple of times reducing characters. If the group does write off the magic weapons, it would be a good reason to split Ilero and Shur off, at least temporarily. Shur would really want to go get her sword back, and Ilero wouldn't leave her to do it alone.

[Master] there is a plan for that

[Master] just like for being able to go after Kenna

[Master] that is why the bugbear is there, etc.

[Master] just will take some time

[TMO] agreed.

[TMO] but Lisa's comment about writing it off in her head got me thinking about it.

[TMO] and I don't know that the group would want tosay goodbye to the two forever.

[Master] nods, she wants to make sure things are not set aside to go chasing after weapons no one knows where they are

[Master] and you can have htem talk with Indigo of course about getting things back, he has had that pick longer than Ilero has been part of the group I think

[TMO] I say burn the whole forest down, take the weapons and unicorn hair fromthe charred remains

[Master] LOL

[TMO] I don't like that forest :)

[Master] as you saw in my media posting, I am working on family trees for dragons now

[Master] and there is already Bugbear stuff on the site

[TMO] actually, i missed that

[TMO] where was it?

[Master] so there are adventures to be had

[Master] a note I posted earlier today

[Master] about Dragons on Ancestry and hunting grounds on Google Earth

[Master] will make those things public soon enough

[Master] so everyone can look through them

[Master] after more investigations are done

[Master] too bad Spring will miss out on tomorrow

[Master] you can help them get started

[Master] then come back as you can

[TMO] I should be able to be there for about 5 of the hours, possibly asmuch as 6

[Master] will be nice

[TMO] my son might joinin to watch.

[TMO] on my old laptop

[Master] great

[Master] want a character for him?

[TMO] he's about to turn 9, so I'll try to keep him asking questions to me, instead of online

[Master] he could play Homer

[TMO] .. maybe.

[Master] up to you

[Master] see how it goes

[TMO] he's never played. and his spelling is not yet good. Hey, he's still young. ;)

[Master] grins

[Master] I am off to rest

[Master] long day of sitting tomorrow preparing multiple chairs

[TMO] I'd be willing to be his attention span won't last long

[Master] nods

[TMO] alright. nite!

[TMO] don't know if you want to erase this bit from the log or not

[TMO] cya tomorrow

TMO has left the game on Sat Sep 17 00:13:36 EDT 2016
