Lisa is receiving the map New Residence second floor...
[Master] summoned like a demon sign ;)
[Master] will text Eric just in case
Lisa has received the map New Residence second floor.
[Mike] hey lisa
[Lisa] Hello :)
[Lisa] so is that a burn mark in our salon?
[Master] remains of the stone dome
[Master] you created a dome, then opened up one side to attack the hound inside
[Master] that is what is left
[Lisa] there goes the security deposit! :)
[Master] chukcles
[Master] you will want to fix it as no one can get around it easily
[Master] but yes that rug is ruined
[Master] and your couch has scorch marks but did not catch fire
[Lisa] don't tell me the dogs peed on the carpet on top of everything else!
[Master] well stone flowing up from the floor and creating a dome does not care about things like cloth
[Master] and Eric did text to say he will try to log in later, he has the boys tonight
[Master] so I am refilling my drinks
[Master] then I will be ready to do things
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Mike] how did the rest of the party go?
[Lisa] was fine - I can't remember when you left exactly but I don't think much happened
[Master] Branwyn XP award: 500. Next level in 65393.
[Master] Seremella Psyndarryn XP award: 500. Next level in 12233.
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Lisa] I made a clean chat log - it is easy to scan through
[Lisa] I put all the party conversations together so they don't run over each other
[Master] Ok so committed to added XP and resaving everything again this weekend
[Master] increase opacity on the dome to make it easier
[Mike] well if it's the next morning that can get fixed
[Master] you will want to talk it over first before just casting
[Master] Ok so
[Mike] talk what over? does branwyn want a new stone feature?
[Master] Time of Day: 07:45 AM. Day 16 Mid ___ tre, Kye {Late Winter} 16th, 1266 TGR.
[Master] chuckles considering you met you 24-36 hours ago
[Master] would you want someone just casting in your private salon?
[Lisa (to GM only)] Character sheet for Branwyn modified: Spells - CHANGED: Feign Death - Wizard -- # Memorized: 0 (1), CHANGED: Grease -- # Memorized: 0 (1), CHANGED: Magic Missile -- # Memorized: 1 (+0), CHANGED: Manyjaws -- # Memorized: 2 (+0), CHANGED: Sleep -- # Memorized: 1 (0),
[Lisa] sorry getting spells together
[Lisa] we need to fix the salon
[Mike] considering there's a big bloody half dome in the floor, yeah. i would.
[Lisa] :)
[Lisa] so that was easy

Michael has received the map New Residence second floor.
[Master] Hey there!
[Lisa] Hi Michael!
[Michael] Lisa how do you live with this LA Traffic!!1!
[Michael] and Hi all
[Lisa] I leave for work at 5:30 am
[Michael] Smart haha
[Michael] Just got back tot eh hotel so
[Lisa] is horrific
[Lisa] you are not doing the family thing?
[Mike] hi michael
[Michael] I did do that family thing. And now I told them at my game time I will be playing with you guys or they would be unhappy. Hey Mike!
[Master] Thank you Michael, grins
[Master] Hugh D'Ambray moved 4'00".
[Master] so you are gathered, Hugh is here with his baby, the two new elves are here, Jilly anticipated and made extra breakfast
[Michael] She make extra for our hellhound anticipated guests?
[Master] chukcles
[Master] Phillipe is slouched in the chair rather than at his normal post by the fireplace
[Master] Joseph has the basket of scrolls
[Master] the circle there Michael is the remains of the dome from yesterday's meeting that was partially opened to get at the hound inside
[Michael] gotcha
[Master] the opening is on the side where Phillipe is
[Mike] is it the next morning?
[Master] yes
[Master] you have just arrived
[Master] the three of you
[Master] Jondar is there with Kenna watching over him
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::goes to check on Phillipe first::
[Michael] He hung over?
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Hello, Phillipe. How are you feeling this morning?"
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I am better than yesterday
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "You feel up for some healing?"
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] still feeling very tired
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I would appreciate that very much Seremella
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified: Magical Abilities - CHANGED: 1 -- Current: 5 (+2). CHANGED: 2 -- Current: 5 (4). CHANGED: 3 -- Current: 3 (0).
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::nods:: "Let's get to work, then."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You should go back to bed after breakfast, Phillipe. You should be resting.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] Seremella Psyndarryn casts a spell against : Orison: I can create minor effects.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] that's 9 hp
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] that is enough
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] he can take more but he is only lightly wounded now
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] well she's not oging to leave a patient half healed
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::continues to work over him::
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] Seremella Psyndarryn casts a spell against : Orison: I can create minor effects.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::bends down to whisper in his ear:: "You should be fine now, but we won't tell the Ambassador that. You deserve a day off for what you went through."
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] fully healed
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Sits up straight
[Master] Atribella puts a hand on his shoulder
[Master] keeping him in his chair
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::places a hand on his chest:: "Easy there. Not so fast."
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "You should do what the Ambassador says and rest."
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] btw, i thought branwyn gave my two a room in the keep? some other characters who moved out?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yes you have a room - are you moving in now or waiting til after your elven meeting thing?)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] hrm. guess i'll wait. that would make sense
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (totally up to you :) )
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (atribella set it up in the room next to marisu's)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Before we start with the scrolls I wanted to talk to you all about what happened yesterday.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I don't think a couple of dead hellhounds wiill be the end of this hunt.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This entire thing is completely my doing and not what any of you signed up for.
[Michael] It's a great research opportunity!
[Michael] I'm with you Branwyn
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This isn't a job we took. This is me being foolish and now having to pay the consequences
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] You saved my life
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I risked your life Phillipe.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] You did not need to do that you should have protected your self
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This wouldn't have happened if it were not for me.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::thinks to herself, I saved his life but oh well::
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And now we have a baby in the house ...
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I have a solution for that
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What I'm saying is that none of this is your responsibility.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I spoke to someone at the Celestry yesterday
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] me too. throw it out. evil bob spawn of a baby
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Jennevive
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] they will take in the foundling
[Michael] I apppreciate your helping Jennevive, however, I am rather fond of her. I do not want to throw her to the priests. As long as Branwyn does not mind her presense, I would prefer to keep an eye on her.
Aunt Jennevive (Master) looking at Branwyn
[Michael] (Unless bob does'nt want her in the game in which case...)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is not that I mind her, it is just that I cannot protect her.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] and she's evil
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Michael do the chat as Hugh)
[Michael] One moment, my screen is different then ususal
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I also thought that some of the ladies in the house might object
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] test
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So I offer that I will move out and take Hugh's room in town. Anything that comes after me will come for me alone. And you will be safe.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] But your the ambassador!
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] both to having the baby here, and to comitting the baby to the church... stops in stunned silence
[Branwyn (Lisa)] My appointments will be difficult. but there is no way around that
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Hugh's place? He lives above the cobbler!
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] That is not acceptable
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] NO
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But I can hopefully prevent my attache getting set ablaze Phillipe.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I agree with Phillipe in this. I'll keep the room for Mercy and myself
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] You are too important to be seen in such accomadations
Branwyn (Lisa) laughs "i am not important. It is the title and I can work around that."
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::coughs lightly:: "If I may, Mistress Ambassador..?"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "What your steward says is correct. I do not yet know exactly what your diplomatic involvement is in this kingdom, but it will be greatly hampered by your move. It would be seen as odd and would likely put a social stigma on you by the ruling class of humans."
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Yeah! Phillipe help us out here
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "The better idea if you must would be to move your staff out and have them arrive and leave in secret via the waterways under the keep so no one would suspect anything is amiss."
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] She's just... Well She's uh.. Important!
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Yeah let's do that or something
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You must all know that if I cannot get rid of this mark, it will only get worse.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Your lives will be at risk every time you are around me.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Johan and Useless are free to go back to the Guild.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] We belong to you ambassador. You are our de facto leader at present time. It isn't up to us.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Only until the master demon comes and we kill it."
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Yeah I vote for that!
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I'll do research
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Phillipe, Joseph and Atribella, I shall find you proper places if you wish.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] NO
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] We will not be leaving
[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] I am yours, I stay by your side
Atribella Olivin (Master) looking at Phillipe, I am here, the household will be fine
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] (Who is atribella? I don't remember)
Branwyn (Lisa) shakes her head "I am not sure this is wise, but know I shall always do my best to protect you."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you.
[Johan the Apprentice (Master)] There is no better place to learn than by your side
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Perhaps Jennevive can take me to the Celestry and see if I can ger some sort of demon cleansing.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I hvae not asked about that yet
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and I am not sure you want to
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Why would I wish to keep this and endanger everyone in the house?
Aunt Jennevive (Master) holds up a hand
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I am assuming that no one in this room has spoken of this to anyone else yet?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] looks around
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I told the elf guy we were attacked by hellhounds
[Indigo (Lisa)] Well I did tell Penelope we had hellhounds.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] it was vague but I did
[Indigo (Lisa)] I didn't know it was a secret
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] well those are not good things but not definitive
Indigo (Lisa) grabs another biscuit
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "We haven't."
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Does anyone want to test Branwyn to see if her aura has shifted from her normal alignment of good and evil?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Why should me essence change just because I am demon bait?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well, I haven't had any training so it wont be me. Besides, she hasn't acted differently so I don't think she has
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Bran do you feel evil today?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (my)
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] YOU might not have changed but the aura around you
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles "No more than usual."
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] that is the first hurdle
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] our second hurdle
Aunt Jennevive (Master) looking around again
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you all admit that she does represent a certain level of danger
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and that we can all handle that danger?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Yes
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well, as long as we are armed at breakfast
[Indigo (Lisa)] I brought a sword to breakfast
[Indigo (Lisa)] (lol)
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Me too
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "She is correct. Demonic things do tend to create such changes. You're lucky you've got such a good priest around like Aunt Jennevive."
Aunt Jennevive (Master) looks at Seremella,
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] That is a very sweet thing to say,
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I wonder how you would think of me after a night in my bed
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] what sort fo lovely marks I would leave on you
Hugh D'Ambray (Michael) Mutters "I cant unhear that"
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] My point is that if you were in the Celestry looking to keep the city safe
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] would you allow someone who is attracting demons to remain?
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::opens her mouth and shuts it again:: "I'm not sure."
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] The ambassador has strong political allies. They might find it harder then you think to force her out.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So instead of helping me they would throw me aside? Well that's nice.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh! I forgot. I did tell Midguard. He didn't get all upset.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Perhaps mages may help where priests fail us.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I did not say they would throw you aside
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] they have some very extensive protected holdings
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Can someone at least tell me if I am growing some evil aura?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Maybe I have to wait until Kenna comes down.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] You look good to me Ambassador :)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I wish Tristan didn't decide to go into a meditative retreat.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I appreciate that you all want to stay. I just want to make sure that everyone knows this isn't over.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] It might very well be over if you turn your self in to the Celestry
[Branwyn (Lisa)] They would get rid of it or kill me in the attempt?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Turn her self in?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Hugh, you were very interested in disecting and examing those hell hounds
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] what do you think someone who's job is to search for evil would think of the chance to test out theories
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] on summing and marks
Branwyn (Lisa) sighs
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] can you rephrase that question? I actually got a litte lost bob
Aunt Jennevive (Master) looks at Branwyn, raises an eyebrow
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I think it would be prudent to learn as much as possible and get the mark removed
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] (If that is what she was asking)
Aunt Jennevive (Master) nods at Hugh
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] You would want to take your time learning
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] finding out everything you can
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "So your priesthood would treat her as a test subject instead of getting rid of the evil right away?"
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] But also balance that. We don't want to wait too long or the ambassador might die as more and more nasty things find her
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "With your short lives I wouldn't think your kind would waste such time."
Hugh D'Ambray (Michael) rolls eyes
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] not my priesthood
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So we keep killing things until hunting season is over I suppose.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I am suggesting that we think long and hard about who we bring in on our quest to remove this mark
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well, I don't want you in danger for more then we can help. If we don't have any immediate plans I am visiting the city library as soon as I can to learn about this
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] we don't have to reveal too much
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] we are in the information gathering phase right now
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] there is no library in the city you can just visit
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] unitl we know what exactly the danger is
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] there is the Mage's Guild
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] we shouldn't tell anyone
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] there is the Celestry
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well, the ambassador has connections, with an escort, she can get us into any library
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] of course Branwyn has access to the Prince's library
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] What do you think Ambassador
Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) kicks the dome filling up that part of the room
Aunt Jennevive (Master) smiles at Phillipe
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I think it might be worth a discussion about what to do when the next threat appears
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well, if we cannot capture it, we should probably kill it before it offs our leader
Joseph Shortkin (Master) shifts with his basket of scrolls
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] Jilly bring some mead for Phillipe please
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am not sure the use in capturing anything of pure evil that is not sentient
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "Your obsession of capturing a live demon is going to get someone killed."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and libraries do not let one browse and so to go to any would be to announce our purpose
[Branwyn (Lisa)] it is difficult
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] "If you want to do research on demonkind so badly read a book or find a summoner of demons to question."
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Feel free to kill it, i'm just trying to find an identfiying mark. Something I can show someone who is smarter. It might help out
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] And you do your job, I'll do mine
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] My job is research and development and information
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] So what do we do?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We shall be as ready as possible Jennevive. I am memorizing spells as if we were adventuring in a Drillian swamp and will have my dagger with me always
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] you should have made a mage, michael.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I wanted too! Bob made me a fighter!
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well, actually I wanted to be a theif
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I'm making the best of what i got
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] bob, did you ever get to magic items?
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] NO thank you might
[Master] grabbing my charts now
[Master] so we do that now
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] mages have research proficiency
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I know
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (research for spells)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] i want to know if i have a magic bow or anything like that
[Master] let's solve Mike's things
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (not for any old research)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] plus high int helps with non weapon knowledge proficiencies
[Master] so 5 time with a d100 Mie
[Master] Mike
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Look at my intelligence mike haha
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] it's a as high as I could get it
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I don't really have any fighting skills
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] or so far useful skills at all
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] linguistics? Big whoop, aparently they have spells for that
[Master] we will discuss after Mike is done Michael
[Master] waiting on those 5 rolls
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] you know, you could get hugh killed and your second character can be any class you want. just sayin
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] (5d100) [5d100=95,73,39,20,3] 230
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Thats morbid.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] woo! 95
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I will say that mages are harder characters to run)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] or woo! 3
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] not sure if i want high or low
[Master] low was better
[Master] so now three d20
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] (3d20) [3d20=17,17,9] 43
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] i hope high is better here.
[Master] 4 +1 arrows
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] two magic bows!
[Master] Chain Mail +1 , NOT elven chain mail
[Master] and Bracers of Defence AC 4
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Holy crap mike
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] seriously? i can't wear that
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] i can only do elven chain or leather.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] i'll take the bracers though. that's cool.
[Master] nods at Mike, but it is human sized
[Master] so you have that for negociating with someone in the city , etc
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] for a MAGIC BOW
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] You need three bows?
[Master] now for Ellenara
[Master] 3 d100
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] (3d100) [3d100=19,31,83] 133
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] i need a magic one.
[Master] so 2 d20
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] (2d20) [2d20=15,2] 17
[Master] Potion of Polymorph Self, Potion of Extra Healing, +1 Dagger
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (1 potion of polymorph self? lol)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified: Equipment - ADDED: human sized chain +1, , , . ADDED: Bracers of Defence AC 4, , , . ADDED: 4 +1 arrows, , , .
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] is it funny?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you change yourself into a pizza carrying rat and unless you know the spell you van't change yourself back)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] huh. can i redo her weapon proficiency?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (can't)
[Master] no
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] wow. i rolled 2 magic items i can't use.
[Master] sorry
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I know the spell - I can change her back in a day)
[Master] they are the common items, the other rarer ones we adjust to fit
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so feel free to morph :) )
[Master] so NOW
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Ellenara Psyndarryn modified: Equipment - ADDED: dagger +1 of uselessness, , , . ADDED: potion of polymorph self, , , .
[Master] Mike is done with his two characters and all updated
[Master] Michael
[Master] this is your one and only chance
[Master] you get to trade in Hugh (and the baby) for a brand new character
[Master] that you would have to find a way to introduce into the story line
[Master] etc.
[Master] if you are really unhappy with Hugh
[Master] but as you can see other than Indigo and Leatherus you are the only fighter
[Master] and Eric is not in very often
[Lisa] no character class is perfect and can do everything - we all have our limitations
[Lisa] look at this morning - branwyn needs an aura check
[Lisa] crickets
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified: Armor - Armor Bonus:: CHANGED: -6 (null). DEX Bonus:: CHANGED: -4 (4). AC FINAL:: CHANGED: 0 (6).
[Lisa] I can't do it
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] least i got the bracers. those are pretty kick ass
[Lisa] my fighting skills are lame
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] lol. imari could have.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Bob, I'm not complaining and i mean no offense. I'm spent alot of time on him. I gotta ask though, did you think it was weird when i spent most of my points on knowledge attributes? Also being a fighter is fine, I just want to be intelliegent and do stuff like research. Also, I just wish I looked a little closer at what I was doing. My languages and linguistics has done absolutely nothing to help anything or anyone. What a waste. Like I said, I'm not complaining, I just didn't do what I should have doe and wasted several non weapon proficencies. I may bitch, but I'm not going to fault you for plaing the game bob
[Lisa] if I get hit I have to wait a round to cast a spell
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] yeah, but it sounds like eric wants something he doesn't have.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] michael, rather
[Master] no I think that you are doing well with the charcter actually, remember less than three weeks have passed in game time with him
[Master] and all those proficiencies will help
[Master] BUT information gathering for example
[Master] you have to live in the city for months to learn all the back alley conversations etc.
[Lisa] there are other tasks than the demon stuff
[Master] it is not somethign that you walk into a strange city and immediately KNOW everyone in town
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] If you think my character is fine then I do too.
[Master] Every character is what you make of it
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] BUT bob, remember that my character will never be in the city for months in game time, becasue I would be two centuries dead in real time :)
[Master] chuckles
[Master] just wait, there are times that we move forward much faster also
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] As long as you let me use my last non weapon for something cool then I won't make waves
[Master] you can ue it on anythign you want, it jsut takes time to train
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Yeah I know
[Master] 7 weeks on average
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Real time or game time?
[Master] game time
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] UGHGHGH
[Master] everything is always game time
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Also, while we are taling outta of character. Opinions on the Baby?
[Master] John has had a character off trainign on a skill for months of game time
[Lisa] we can pay to half that time
[Master] which has equated to well over a year of real world time
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Holy S***
[Lisa] but john has had multiple charactera
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] You guys are way to patient
[Lisa] when we get to a bob calm moment - when he decides - we can click off a couple of weeks
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Huh?
[Lisa] everyone is doing stuff (behind scenes and we come back
[Lisa] usually when we finish a story or whatever - we all go in for training
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Oh
[Lisa] decide what we are doing and then game moves forward
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Bob?
[Master] yes?
[Lisa] we are 10 game days from another party we are hosting but after that perhaps we can go with some expedited training
[Master] that would be too fast Lisa
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Okay. Thanks Lisa. One moment bob I'm typing out a statement
[Master] 700 GP for 7 weeks
[Lisa] that is what I am saying
[Lisa] after the feast
[Master] ahh after yes
[Lisa] after the 25th october
[Lisa] pay extra for say 3 week training course
[Lisa] BUT
[Lisa] make sure you know what your nwp really does and that it is what you really want
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] In all seriousness, If this will make everything too complicated then I'm thinking the celestry will be the best place for Mercy. BUT, when I think of midevil style orphanages, I think crap life. Will they raise her but I retain parental privelegaes, or how does that all work
[Lisa] you only get 1 per 3 levels
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Okay
[Lisa] as far as the baby? that is your decision with roleplay
[Master] it is a full roleplay thing
[Lisa] but it does make it hard for me to think of Hugh as a fighter :)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] i thought he was a rogue
[Master] if you turn her over then yes you are going to let her be raised by them
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Fudge that.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] As long as its a roleplay thing, she's mine
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] It will be a pain in the butt to do it, but she's like my fake kid. I cant give her up to religion.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] They might brainwash her or something
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] besides, she doesn't even cry when crap hits the fan. It's not like she's a distraction
[Lisa] and so other characters might not want you in middle of fights holding a baby
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] yeah that's what i meant about a pain
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] let me think about it
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Am I allowed to at least visit
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] ?
[Lisa] no rush on the baby
[Master] that would be a thing to negociate roleplay out
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Bob, I'm not good a regular conversation and you don't pull punches when roleplaying. It wouldn't end well for anyone
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] but unless you do something crazy cool like lone wolf and cub then all the other fighters will make fun of you
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I think of her as apprentice
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] BUT
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] shes a baby so that sucks
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] and wont work
[Master] there is magical aging, grins
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] NO! Really?!
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (we do not want a teenager)
[Master] and who knows what could happen over time
[Master] LOL
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Is there horrible side effects?
[Master] LOL
[Master] I think Lisa hit on one of them
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Yeah, but with someone I can talk with, life becomes easier. I can say, run. and lo it was done. I don't have to shover her under a table
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Let me think a little about this.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Back to business?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (none of these things have to be decided now)
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Thanks guys
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So before we get to scrolls, maybe Atribella and Joseph can tell us how our party went. Did we do all right?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] No horrible gaffes?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The crystal goblet was beautiful, Atribella.
[Master] everyone is good?
[Master] and I will start with them in just a sec
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (sorry)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] oh, bob, elle will ask phillipe to send a letter to mrs. whatever the guy trying to pick her up and set up a lunch date with her, saying her husband thought it would be great fun.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (LOL)
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] and slipping into characters
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] who was that?
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] She is not here in the City
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] she is back home, that is why he was interested in you
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] ah.
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I am certain that he would like an invitation
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Did you get a dancing partner for the Prince's ball?
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] she has no interest in him. he was skeevy
Atribella Olivin (Master) blushes, I did not think I could go
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] can the sisters go together? or would that be too unusual?
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] (they are elves what do humans know about their mating rituals)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (they may be required to dance together)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] lol
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] i'm sure they'll do fine dancing together. sere has the dancing proficiency
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] she could lead elle like a boss
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] lol
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] they don't know anyone here yet and don't want to make a political or social faux pas by inviting the wrong person.
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] so if they can be unusual elves and just dance with each other, that might be the safest route
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] That's funny
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (take Hugh and Jondar?)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] heeeeeeell no. jondar lied to them. they don't like him
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I don't have the proficency but Bob said I cant still dance
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Oh okay. Never mind
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you can dance - just not gracefully)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no one's clearing the floor to watch you)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] :)
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] S' okay. As long as I don't fall on someone important. :)
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] (if you do not have a proficiency, such as Cooking you can still feed your self, but it is boring bland, Jilly can make really good things and excellent over the top with a sucessful check)
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] what we need to do is bring some cardboard boxes and let sere breakdance all over their faces
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] who's got a boombox?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (you all have 2 days to figure it out)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (marisu definitely doesn't have a date or probably kenna or you could head out somewhere and look for someone)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (anyway)
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] So before we dig into the scrolls, we gonna burn the red ones?
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yes please.
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I woould not burn them
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] I would not burn them
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] who knows what you might unleash
[Seremella Psyndarryn (Mike)] or you know, detect magic?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well, just in case. I'm getting my knife out
[Branwyn (Lisa)] We're not opening them over breakfast at least
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Attack: Dagger/Dirk:: is now ARMED.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Attack: Dagger/Dirk:: is NO LONGER ARMED.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Okay
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Phillipe, I read the City Council scrolls yesterday.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Dinner at the next meeting?
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] yes
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] it is a planning session
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] not open to the public
[Branwyn (Lisa)] For?
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] to make plans
[Branwyn (Lisa)] They are planning to make plans
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I despise planning
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Why don't we send Marisu and Ellenara to the planning session since they seem versed in diplomatic endeavors
Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) nods
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] That would work
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Would you like to go Ellenara?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] "I would be pleased to help you in this matter, Mistress Ambassador."
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It would be an enormous help.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You have no idea
[Branwyn (Lisa)] And as far as the wool tax? I discussed it with Uncle Tanto and we agreed that the tax shall remain.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ::nods::
[Branwyn (Lisa)] As far as the council goes, you may say that I am seeing what I can do on the matter.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Sound vague enough?
Joseph Shortkin (Master) fidgets with his basket of scrolls
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I'm sorry Joseph. Sit down with me. No need to stand there.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] What colors do we have today?
[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] THis is where Phillipe always stands and delivers the morning news
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Phillipe could sit if he chooses as well
Branwyn (Lisa) smiles at Phillipe
Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master) looks shocked
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I won't even ask you to tell me anything I don't know today.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] That would not be proper
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I can tell you something that Phillipe does not know
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh do tell!
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I was able to help your visitor out this morning without him seeing
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Oh
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Thank you Atribella.
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I think you should invite him to dinner again
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] he seems very nice
[Branwyn (Lisa)] He is very nice.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] oooOOOOOOOoooo
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] who did i miss staying at the end of the night?
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I would nver say
[Branwyn (Lisa)] But not one for sit down dinners usually
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I wanted to show that I was paying attention when Phillipe was not able to
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] should i go back and read the chat?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (nothing exciting - just Pilist crashing)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (did not roleplay that out)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I appreciate that ... I think.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So, scroll colors this morning?
[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] I have many without
[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] there are no red ones
[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] there are no black ones
[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] those are the ones that I was concerned about
[Joseph Shortkin (Master)] most of these seem to be thank you notes for last night
Branwyn (Lisa) looks at Phillipe "Unlabeled scrolls?"
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is nice
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] I will ensure they are properly labeled in the future
[Branwyn (Lisa)] It is fine. I'm just a little wary is all.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] What are you doing for the Feast of the Basket?
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] Imari was in charge of the planning
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] now she has left suddenly
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I know.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I can take over taht
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] if you need help
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That would be wonderful.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I'll do that online
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] on the 18th you have the Ball for the King of Golinar
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] on the 19th you have the Memorial at the Wreck
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] on the 25th you have the Feast of the Basket
[Master] Time of Day: 07:45 AM. Day 16 Mid ___ tre, Kye {Late Winter} 16th, 1266 TGR.
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] so 2 days, 3 days and 9 days
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Let me or Phillipe know if you want any help with the guest list.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so all we have is thank you notes? a harmless basket?)
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] nods
[Phillipe Gaston Enquire (Master)] (not every day can bring doom and danger)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (how refreshing)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So the things we have to do are exploring the Ronwith name, Joliene greek priestess of Gort and cleaning up the living room
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so if we have no plans for two days then i'd like to sus out the bowyers in the city and see if i can't get a trade for a magic bow
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Fletchers?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] nope. don't want arrows
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] If there is nothing else? I will take Phillipe down to bed
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] I have a lot of cleaning and checking of the staff today
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Please. Thank you both for staying
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (I updated calendar page with city council meeting and next seance)
[Atribella Olivin (Master)] (excellent)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (9 days from last council meetig)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so how do we fix the floor?)
[Master] you will have to look at your spells
[Master] stone shape will work
[Master] but you have to consider that the stone comes from somehwere
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] yup. sere can take care of that
[Master] so when you suck it up out of the floor to make a dome
[Master] it weakens the floor, etc
[Master] in this case you want to resmooth things out and down
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well then she puts it back
Aunt Jennevive (Master) watches
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn moved 11'10".
[Master] Jilly moved 12'08".
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] why does it have to get needlessly complicated? if the stone was taken from the floor to make the dome, then it goes back to the floor
[Master] Joseph Shortkin moved 8'04".
Branwyn (Lisa) takes a step back
[Master] Branwyn's three apprentices stand watching
[Master] Jennivive sitting in her chair calmly
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (brb)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i hate this interface. she casts it
[Master] ok
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike) (to GM only)] Character sheet for Seremella Psyndarryn modified: Magical Abilities - CHANGED: 3 -- Current: 2 (3).
[Master] you can cast any third level spell
[Master] that works also
[Master] appropriate level spell I mean
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] can't tell which is which
[Master] by the way remember no game next Friday but on Saturday will do a Tabletop Session
[Master] want to look at character sheet issues, etc.
[Master] it will be a shorter session most likely
[Master] and HERE Michael is where you can shine
[Master] the group is floundring
[Master] needs direction
[Master] you can help with setting up the plan
[Master] for the list of things to do for each story thread
[Master] and then you can help LIsa work out who to assign to each character
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Okay
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Right now? Or online?
[Master] both
[Master] I would say start now
[Master] while you have Mike
[Master] and can assign him and his characters things
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Okay. So i'm only going to do that if people aren't going to get pissed at me for general tasks
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Is everyone okay with general planning suggested by me?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] just suggested
[Master] they have to be :)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (back)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] planning for what now?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] tabletop session?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Everything really
[Master] Laughs, exactaly Michael see why it is needed
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] no
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] story
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well we've got a lot going on already.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] we're tracking down spiritual leads with the seances
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Well short term we need to get the curse removed while dealing with house affairs
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] we found out one reason why the bitch may have been killed
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] we've got more diplomatic stuff in the next couple weeks than we can handle. probably take us through the end of the year at this rate
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] then after all the short term stuff we're apparently going on an underdark summer camp trip
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Yes. But we still need to get the demon stuff taken care off
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] and yes
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] that's up to lisa as far as i see it
[Lisa] It would be helpful to find out who this greek priestess is - subtly
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] bob gave her a direction and it's up to her what she wants to do with that.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] M'kay. Then its Lisa
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] You tell me what you want me to do Lisa
[Lisa] well demon wise - bob made it sound like the celestry was a bad plan
[Lisa] regular people are going to have no clue
[Master] not BAD just makign sure you are aware of all the angles
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Probably because it would be a fast and simple course of action that will go to fast
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] :)
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] More then likely we will end up there anyways
[Lisa] I assume if jennevive could do an aura check she would have offered
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I cannot think of anyone else who would know more about demonology then the celestry
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] then mages
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] They will at the very least have the knowledge of the people to go to
[Master] or it could be that she is not sure you want a priest doing it
[Master] or that you might want someone other than her casting on you ;)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well if the spell isn't a curse, than it's a spell
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so maybe the mages if you're tight with them.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Brans tight with everyone
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] jennevive made the pointn that this is some seriously sensitive info you all just blabbed about to everyone
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] you may be viewed as a risk to the city
[Lisa] oh well
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] All I said was we were attacekd by hellhounds. That doesn't seem really a big info breach. Maybe i guess
[Lisa] I was always a risk to the city
[Lisa] :)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so you need to go to someone you can trust, or just let it play out and kill whatever comes at you
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I also have a couple pet projects I would like to do too though
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well for hellhounds to attack us in our own home they would have to have been summoned here
[Lisa] I will check when spring comes in and see if she can do the aura check
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I want to finish the dissections and my own research
[Lisa] I can go to the guild
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] otherwise there would have been reports of hellhounds running through the city to our doorstep
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so it can be assumed that someone or something is playing with demonic forces in our home
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] brb
[Master] the hell hounds were in the scroll
[Master] did not come from outside
[Master] how they got into the scroll is a different issue
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] that's what i was saying
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well i'd go with a demon lord put them in there.
[Master] but not someone in the house doing it
[Lisa] one that we won't know since the scroll disintegrated
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] but the populice might think that, bob
[Master] that is possible yes Mike
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] yes... which is what i was saying
[Master] but the populace would need to see them
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] which is why we need to keep this quiety
[Master] exactly
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] back. im eating though so
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] not if we go blabbing all over the city about it
[Lisa] but we have other things to do
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] then no on eneeds to see anything because we've told them all they need to know to start up a witch hunt
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] though that would get us out of the city, i suppose.
[Lisa] waverlyn killed a greek priestess from Gort in her own home
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] yup.
[Lisa] Gort is miles and miles away
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] hey bran. Actually we should do this. Everyone will run you out and you can go home without shame
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] which is cool since apparently everyone here just freaking hates the greeks
[Lisa] so this priestess could be someone big
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] could be. if we summon her again we can ask.
[Lisa] I thought Phillipe said there is a greek temple around here
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] maybe we can find someone else who is willing to do seances for us to get more in
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] there is
[Master] no
[Master] there is a hidden secret greek community
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] that we apparently know of..?
[Lisa] we need to go IC then
[Master] because of the fact that there are countries that have greek believers in them that are here in the Diplomatic quarter
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] icup?
[Master] it is a good inference
[Indigo (Lisa)] I met a Greek ambassafor!
[Master] that there must be a church
[Master] and there you go
[Master] grins
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so let's drag a stuffed grape leaf through the street on a string and see who runs after it
[Indigo (Lisa)] She was really nice. She doesn't like parties but Phillipe could probably find out where she is
[Indigo (Lisa)] Ambassador Lorilop of Turndale
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So we could start there perhaps?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Then there is the whole Romwith thing for Lord Sam.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I have no idea what kind of name that is so it could be anywhere.
[Master] Michael, you could look through the Ball and the Mourning feast to find all the various names of countries mentioned
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Anyone who wanted to quietly explore that would help.
[Master] that would help figure out somethings
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I can look through the groups for the ball
[Branwyn (Lisa)] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.EventsOf13-9-1266-TheBall
[Master] complile that like
[Master] a list of places to investigate so you know which ambassadors to go visit
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (this is why you need to talk to people at parties Michael :) )
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Okay so are we investigating or keeping quiet guys
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] let's just visit them all. start with the ones with the best national food
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (so when bob tosses out greeks - we know one)
[Master] grins
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] I talked to a cool elf
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] pretty sure he wasn't greek
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] probably not, but I learned about the reproductive cycles of oak trees. So that's cool
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] almost done wih dinner. im hurrying
[Master] (take your time Michael
[Master] (I am going to make it another hour or so before we end, big day tomorrow)
[Master] I want to answer some questions and be sure you are all on the right track to know which questions to ask and start along those paths
[Master] so we can do that on the site or next session etc.
[Master] I want to know where/what you are looking for with some detail not just "all greeks" etc.
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] International market?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Thieves guild?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Information broker?
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] City Council?
[Master] all are options for various things
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] They have an ambassador so it cannot be too hard
[Master] LOL
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well since indigo has a name and a place of origin let's check with that first.
[Master] there are over 150 countries in Terraguard
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] hey, is there an ambassador from burke or wherever here?
[Master] there are what? 40 soemthing buildings in the Diplomatic Quarter alone
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] there is? where they at?
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.DLC-DiplomaticQuarter
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well let's ask phillipe
[Master] you just sent him off to bed
[Master] again this is why I am saying you need to be better organized
[Master] make a list
[Master] we want to investigate these X places
[Master] we want to look into these Y familes
[Master] etc.
[Master] so that you know what you have accomplished what you have not
[Hugh D'Ambray (Michael)] Guys I have to call it. I will be on the site later and attempt to organize stuff. Night
[Master] night Michael
Michael has left the game on Fri Sep 25 22:03:58 EDT 2015
[Master] Mike as you and Lisa work out some details I am going to do the XP thing
[Master] which means I cannot type in the chat log until it is done
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well i say we make the journey into phillipe's bedchamber and ask him if he knows of indigo's ambassador
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] if he doesn't, then we go to the prince
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] if he doesn't know, then i think we can safely assume it is another fake ambassador
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] in which case i will seriously start to question whether branwyn is the only real one in the city
[Lisa] sorry was debating on writing a snippy post to someone who calls themselves IM_LUCIFER and then decided not to bother with the idiot
[Lisa] was distracted
[Lisa] well we can ask phillipe to send an invite to the ambassador for dinner
[Lisa] nice friendly - everyone can be there

[Lisa] phillipe can get in touch with anyone
[Lisa] you just need to tell him
[Master] Ellenara Psyndarryn XP award: 400. Next level in 4600.

[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] and we need to wait for the next seance
[Master] Tristan Elaire XP award: 250. Next level in 44061.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so what do you want to do about the demon mark?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] you could just go home you know.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] the mist will keep you safe
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can't just leave.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] The Queen needs me here. The best I could do is explain it in a letter and see if she wants me replaced in a few months.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] get kicked out?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so that's not going to help much.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] You are supposed to be the diplomat?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so you think the mages or priests are more likely to help?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] nope. i'm just the guy playing the diplomat
[Lisa] I was thinking priests - demons more up their alley
[Lisa] but with jennevive putting out all those warning signs it makes sense
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so should we go to the celestry while phillipe does his thing?
[Lisa] I don't know if I want to open that can of worms
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so just kill what comes?
[Lisa] if bob wants to demon curse me I'm not sure if a pouch full of gold and a couple of day will kill this story arc
[Master] ok
[Master] so that should update everyone to tonight
[Lisa] thank you
[Master] and Lisa is right,
[Master] story arcs are never solved by thowing money at them
[Master] it did not HAVE to be Branwyn
[Lisa] and with priests it all about the money
[Master] anyone could have opened that book
[Master] Ilero with his hand was right there
[Master] adn that hand does not stop a Book Mark, grins
[Lisa] should have made useless open it
[Lisa] back to the guild with you
[Master] HAH
[Lisa] no - you knew it would be me
[Lisa] I'm the one that does this stupid stuff
[Master] you like to live on the edge
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well then i guess we just do nothing about that.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] so let's go ask philipe
[Lisa] I want to have someone do a divination to find yulotte [Master] there are LOTS of options between doing nothing and going to teh celestry
[Lisa] can jennevive do that?
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] who's yulotte?
[Master] and what are you going to ask Phillipe? what is so important that you want to wake him up after you sent him to bed
[Master] so you need a specific type of question to ask for her to track down Yulotte
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] he's all healed.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] he's fine. he'll be happy to know we need his services so badly
[Master] ok
[Lisa] and is the aura check just a detect evil?
[Master] yes
[Lisa] then she can do that [Master] nods
[Master] is if you want her to
[Lisa] for yulotte I guess we should start with is he alive
[Lisa] then where is he
[Lisa] I explained yulotte like two weeks ago
[Master] so that is how you get down to the servants quarters
[Master] down the tower central stair case
[Master] and then down the hall
[Master] and their quarters are there in the corner
[Master] Branwyn and Seremella Psyndarryn moved 75'02".
[Master] Branwyn moved 10'06".
[Master] Seremella Psyndarryn moved 14'08".
[Master] Branwyn and Seremella Psyndarryn moved 34'08".
[Master] door to their quarters
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] oh yeah. some ols mage guy your father knew
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] or something like that. who you think can help you
[Master] Time of Day: 08:30 AM. Day 16 Mid ___ tre, Kye {Late Winter} 16th, 1266 TGR.
[Master] so you are at the door to their quarters
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] testing
[Master] do you want to pick this up next session?
[Master] I am just here waiting for you to tell me what you want to do
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i guess so.
[Master] I said twice you are at the door to their quarters
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well i assumed lisa would put the screws to phillipe
[Master] you wanted to go interupt him
[Indigo (Lisa)] (why me?)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] because he's your servant
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i'm the new help
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] if anyone is interrupting servant sex, it's you
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I would just send a note to phillipe to ask Ambassador Lorilop to dinner)
[Indigo (Lisa)] (and he would do it)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] okay, then we'll do that
[Indigo (Lisa)] (I thought you wanted to ask questions)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] just if he knew where ambassador greeko is
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (now if we want to just get some spells out of the way - we can have jenn do her stuff)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] ok
Branwyn (Lisa) stands up and holds arms at her side
[Branwyn (Lisa)] So how much evil's floating around?
[Master] Aunt Jennevive targets Branwyn. Distance: 17'04"
Branwyn (Lisa) closes her eyes
[Master] Aunt Jennevive casts a spell against Branwyn: Detect Magic - Priest: For 1 turn, I can detect magic in a 10'x30' path.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (no evil?)
[Master] Aunt Jennevive casts a spell against Branwyn: Detect Evil - Priest: For (10+(7*5)) 45 rounds, I can detect evil in a 10'x360' path in front of me, though I must concentrate for a round to do it. If the evil is overwhelming, I have a (7*10) 70% chance of knowing what kind of evil it is.
[Master] Aunt Jennevive casts a spell against Branwyn: Analyze Balance: I detect how far from neutral alignment an area or person is.
[Master] Aunt Jennevive casts a spell against Branwyn: Detect Charm: For 1 turn I can detect if one creature per round is under some sort of influence, be it charm or possession or whatnot. I also have a (5*7) 35% chance of knowing what that influence is.
[Master] Aunt Jennevive casts a spell against Branwyn: Detect Spirits: For (1+7) 8 turns I can detect any spirits in a 10'x60' path in front of me.
[Master] Aunt Jennevive casts a spell against Branwyn: Extradimensional Detection: For (7) 7 rounds, I can detect any extradimensional spaces in a 10'x60' path in front of me.
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (yikes - sure cast everything)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (lol)
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] her spells are going to run out before she's done casting
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Branwyn, I do not sense any spirits around you nor any beacons other than the demon mark
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] which allows them to track you
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] to know where you are
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] They cannot send through it but they can use it to send to a spot
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] which ever demon did this is a high level demon lord
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] he must command quite a few resources in his home plane
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but you can also use the mark to go back to track to him if you choose
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] it appears to me that you have not shifted in your balace of law and order
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is what I was going to ask.
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] are we going to hell?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but you are on an edge for good and evil
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] we're going to hell, aren't we?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Maybe we can just send him his book back.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] if you do choose to use it to track to your demon lord you will have to be on the same plane to find him
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] either lure him here or you go there, where ever there is
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] (Mike that storm is right over the house, it is shaking from the thunder)
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Do you think it was his book?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] This Fiendomicon
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] It must have been someone's book who was not happy it is gone
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] we will hae to see if we can find anything about the names you can remember
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] me too
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] for the Charm I could not find out anything,
[Branwyn (Lisa)] and how hard is it for you to see if yulotte the magnificent is still alive?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you must be blocking it somehow
[Branwyn (Lisa)] My ring. It blocks charm and fear spells
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Which is a good thing.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] to find Yulotte will be harder
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] the easiest way is to come up with questions
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and do an augury to find out answers
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but they have to be specific
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] and take place over a short time frame
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I suppose it all has to start with is he alive
[Branwyn (Lisa)] If no, then we are done.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] scrying by a mage would work
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] or a magic font spell
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I can arrange that
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but I am not blessed with such powerful magics
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] to turn a bowl of water into a scrying vessal
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] vessel
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] is he alive, where is he, how do i get there
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] sigh
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] those are not specfic questions in reguards to Branwyn
[Branwyn (Lisa)] That is fine. Thank you. It is nice to know I am not radiating evil
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Yet
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Is yulotte alive will return no disernable answer
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] Will yulotte stab branwyn in the back in the next 5 minutes
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] would give a definative answer
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] but not helpful in the wider scope of inquiry
[Branwyn (Lisa)] so only questions I already know the answer to?
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you do not know if he will stab you in the back in the next 5 minutes
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you only presume to know
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] the future is unknowable to mortals
[Branwyn (Lisa)] I am pretty sure I know
[Branwyn (Lisa)] what good is all this divination and scrying if it doesn't tell you anything useful
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] yeah. seems pretty crappy.
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] if you had cast it before opening the scroll in the first place
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] you would have had warning that great danger lurked
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] usually we just scried directly
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] well that's no surprise. she's marked by a freaking demon
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] that would be a mage ability
[Aunt Jennevive (Master)] or if you have access to a crystal ball perhaps
[Master] ok anything else before we wrap up?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] we have a large crystal magical sphere but no skills to use it
[Lisa] I'm good
[Lisa] Have a fun festival!
[Master] ok then we can call it a night here
[Master] and I will work on more things over the weekend
[Master] after I wake from my coma on Sunday
[Lisa] lol
[Lisa] goodnight
[Master] sleep for 5 hours, then work for the next 12 to 14
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] okay. i'm feeling pretty crappy so i'm good stopping
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] i doubt i'll make it tomorrow bob
[Ellenara Psyndarryn (Mike)] night all
[Master] that is a pity
