6:31pm 2017-3-29 chris107 Has entered the room
Smon: Hi guys
chris107: Hi Simon, Fergus
Smon: I guess Gracyone is still unconscious.
Sandor Sunneson: Evening
chris107: He had to go see his neice.
Sandor Sunneson: Oh ok, so not around at all then?
chris107: Afraid not
chris107: We can search around, hunt down Kaine and such.
Sandor Sunneson: I don't think anyone of us would successfully simulate being Gracyone, she is indeed unique
chris107: Don sure knows ho his character works.
Sandor Sunneson: and if it gets to a big situation, continue tomorrow?
chris107: First time I've seen a spell caster used like that
Smon: GM: On Fion you find a map of level 7 - you are in the side temple SW of the main hall - https://rpgcharacters.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/level7.jpg?w=529
chris107: I'm away for a couple of days from the morning.
Sandor Sunneson: Oh, ok,
Sandor Sunneson: has she got anything else on her?? I'll use Bane to light up the room to see if we see this assasin
chris107: Like Kaine's greatsword?
Smon: The Water Chapel is unoccupied except for the three of you and Glorya the Goblin.
Smon: Kane's weapon is a +1 Greatsword yes.
chris107: Wonder where that is?
Smon: He was wielding it.
Sandor Sunneson: shall we check out the area to the south?
Smon: He also has 4 Nerathi throwing blades (finesse weapon dam 1d6 range 20'/60')
Sandor Sunneson: So Fion has no rings on her?
Smon: She was wearing boots of levitation.
chris107: Which we took I believe?
chris107: (So Kaine's zombie had the sword?)
Sandor Sunneson: yes
Smon: South of the water chapel is the blood splattered passage where you killed Fion & co. Two doors lead off it, to east & west.
chris107: West?
Sandor Sunneson: think that's back to the stairs?
Sandor Sunneson: so east?
Smon: You came down the central stairs in the main hall.
chris107: steps down are that way
chris107: I think west lead to the collapsed tunnel out
Sandor Sunneson: ok, west it is
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 6,
Sandor Sunneson: lol
Smon: You hear footsteps behind you...
Sandor Sunneson: turn round\
Smon: Turning, you see the battered and bandaged form of Weaponmaster Damne.
Smon: She nods.
Sandor Sunneson: Damne, you're alive!!!
Smon: Damne: "Good to see you are alive. Several Nerathi ran past me... They were fleeing. I let them go."
Sandor Sunneson: We have killed the Princess (she her the head)
chris107: "Ahhh, tis good to see you Damne. You missed a good little fight."
Smon: Damne nods. "Good."
Sandor Sunneson: We were going to check this level out, see if there is perhaps some treasure here and then head out
chris107: "Do you need to rest?"
Smon: You just short rested.
Smon: Damne: "I just did."
Sandor Sunneson: Lets go on, clear this level, take Glorya home and head back to thenTower
Sandor Sunneson: Did the zombie Kane flee too?
chris107: "Then lets grab the loot and get her head up on a pole near Oriax' tower!"
chris107: I'm going to log off and back on guys. 1 min
Sandor Sunneson: Yes, so we'll check the other room GM
Smon: Damne: "I saw Kane lying dead on the level above us." GM: Ursa tries the west door. It opens, a short tunnel opens into a guard room. A circular staircase down from the north side of the room is guarded by 4 fearful looking Nerathi soldiers.
6:50pm 2017-3-29 chris107 Has exited the room
6:50pm 2017-3-29 chris107 Has entered the room
chris107: Back
Smon: Damne: "I saw Kane lying dead on the level above us." GM: Ursa tries the west door. It opens, a short tunnel opens into a guard room. A circular staircase down from the north side of the room is guarded by 4 fearful looking Nerathi soldiers.
Sandor Sunneson: Guards, show us where the treasure is on this level and we may spare you
Smon: The Nerathi grip their swords shakily. Make CHA+Prof check Sandor.
Sandor Sunneson rolls 1d20 and gets: 5,
chris107: Maybe let Damne try?
Sandor Sunneson: It's your choice to stay alive or die like the Princess
Sandor Sunneson: ok
chris107: Or can I try intimidate them?
Smon: Looks like an 8.
Smon: Have a go Ursa.
chris107: Cha?
chris107:
chris107 rolls 1d20+1 and gets: 14, (+1) = 15
Smon: You have to say something first. Then CHA_+ Prof
Smon: What are you saying?
Sandor Sunneson: Chris, you can do it
chris107: -2 cha, +3 prof
Smon: It's not possible to have a -2 stat mod in 5e I thought!
chris107: I was trying to intimidate as I mentioned above. Wondered if I could sustitute Str for Cha?
chris107: Then it's a 16
Smon: >>I was trying to intimidate << What are you saying?
chris107: Mixing him up with my 7 Cha Dwarf in the face to face game last Saturday
Sandor Sunneson: Another first for Ursa, Princess killer and first ever negative roll on 5e
chris107: Oh
chris107: "Where's the fekin treasure? Tell me now or I'll chop you into mince meat like I did with your precious Princess!"
Smon: Guard: "In the princess' room! The door opposite this one!"
chris107: "Thank you. NOW SCRAM!"
chris107: He gestures for Sandor to lead on.
chris107: (To the west?)
chris107: Anyone?
Sandor Sunneson: Get one of them to open the door?
Sandor Sunneson: Ok, Sandor will check the door first of all
Sandor Sunneson: It could be booby trapped,
Sandor Sunneson: get one of the guards to open the door
chris107: Go ahead.
Smon: GM: The Nerathi soldiers don't move. BTW the troglodytes went this way earlier, they must have gone down the stairs.
Sandor Sunneson: I'll look at Ursa again
Sandor Sunneson:
Sandor Sunneson: Tell them my friend
chris107: Ursa sighs
chris107: He will gesture towards the door at the western end of the corridor. "That one? If it's trapped I will hunt you down and kill you most horridly."
Smon: (east end of the corridor)
Smon: Guard: "It's not trapped... The trogs were meeting with Fion there when you attacked."
Sandor Sunneson: Sorry Chris, meant the dwarf to threaten the guards to open it
Sandor Sunneson: ok, we'll go in then
chris107: "Thanks guys."
Sandor Sunneson: Much appreciated
chris107: Shall we go do some looting?
Sandor Sunneson: yes, see what there is
chris107: Off we go then
Smon: GM: You head back east into the corridor - the east door is a fraction ajar and opens at a touch.
Sandor Sunneson: we enter the room
chris107: Ursa pushes on through.
Smon: Inside you see a well-appointed bedchamber cum study lit by an everburning torch. A gleaming dwarven warhammer scribed with battle runes is mounted on the far wall, above a desk on which lie three silver & gold scroll tubes.
Smon: /roll d20
Smon rolls 1d20 and gets: 7,
Sandor Sunneson: A hammer for you Ursa?
Smon: Someone is hiding under the desk - a priestess in the same white robes as the one you killed earlier.
Smon: https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/fantasy-priestess-22713410.jpg
Sandor Sunneson: We'll get gracyone to inspect the scrolls\
chris107: Who knows? Looks pretty neat though.
chris107: "Get up girl."
Sandor Sunneson: Get up from down there lady
chris107: "Whre did the princess keep her valuables?"
Smon: The priestess shrieks and starts up from behind the desk, eyes wide with fear. "Please don't kill me..."
chris107: "Then show us the damned loot!"
Smon: "Valuables? Her jewelry, these scrolls...? I can show you the Harpy's treasure? And the prisoner..."
chris107: "Let's start with that hammer shall we? What do you know of it?"
Sandor Sunneson: That sounds good
chris107: "Ah yes the prisoner. That would be great."
Smon: The priestess talks quickly, perspiration beaded on her brow. "We found it on the level below, amidst skeletal remains - a dwarf..."
chris107: Excellent!
chris107: "Do you guys mind if I...."
Smon: Damne: "What's your name? Who is the Prisoner?"
Sandor Sunneson: Go for it
Smon: Glorya: "Go ahead, Ursa!" she cackles.
chris107: Ursa jumps on the bed and grabs the huge hammer.
Smon: Priestess: "I am Livilla, Priestess of Mellora. The prisoner is Artemisia, Queen of the Amazons."
Smon: Ursa takes down the mighty dwarven battlehammer.
chris107: "Wow, rescuing a Queen! That's cool."
Smon: It feels surprisingly light and easy to wield.
chris107: He looks very pleased with himself
Smon: +2 warhammer dam d8+2/d10+2
Sandor Sunneson: Nice Ursa, suits you
chris107: "Well grab the scrolls and the jewels and lets go rescue a Queen!"
chris107: Very nice!
Sandor Sunneson: And take this Princess with us, she maybe able to tell us what the meeting with the trogs was all about
Sandor Sunneson: Who is Mellora Livilla?
chris107: The priestess?
Sandor Sunneson: Priestess even\
Sandor Sunneson: soz, typo
Smon: Livilla: "I'm a priestess not a Princess... Mellora is Goddess of the Elements."
Smon: Damne: "Sort of like Artemis?" Livilla: "Not really. Princess Fion said she needed us for the Heart..."
Sandor Sunneson: Ok, we'll let her be interrogated at Oriax's Tower
chris107: "Now where is the Queen of the Amazoni?"
Smon: Livilla gulps: "I'll take you to her."
Smon: GM: Are you taking the scrolls?
chris107: "Thank you very much."
Sandor Sunneson: Yes, Gracyone will take them
chris107: May as well.
Smon: There are 2 clerical scrolls & a wizard one Gracyone can id as Charm Person/Detect Magic/Mirror Image.
Sandor Sunneson: Livilla, take us to the Harpy's treasure and to the Amazon Queen
chris107: Ursa whistles happily
Smon: Livilla nods nervously. She leads you north to the water shrine, then east from there to the SE shrine, that of Air, passing the body of the other dead priestess - Livilla gulps.
chris107: (Can Ursa read the battle runes?)
Smon: The runes say War Victory Death
7:21pm 2017-3-29 genghisdon Has entered the room
chris107: Thanks
Smon: Incense candles are still burning in the high ceilnged Air shrine
genghisdon: hello
Smon: hi Don
chris107: Hey Don!
Sandor Sunneson: Hey Don
chris107: We have some scrolls from the princesses room and a magical warhammer
Sandor Sunneson: We're vaccuming up treasure hopefully soon, got you some scrolls so far and boots of levitation hopefully
chris107: Now a priestess is taking us to the cell where the Amazon Queen is held.
chris107: via the Harpy treasure
Sandor Sunneson: Or should I say dysoning as we are in Dysons Delves
chris107: hehe
Smon: posted story so far - http://smons.blogspot.co.uk/2017/03/ep-19.html
genghisdon: cool
genghisdon: do we add 14,000 xp?
Smon: ??
genghisdon: anyway, mage armor on Damne & I
chris107: Maybe if we get the Queen home in one piece
genghisdon: Total 9600/3=3200 each LEVEL 5 XP 3200+7252=10452/14000 Suggest we play 6.30pm next Wednesday (rather than 6pm). Who can make it?
genghisdon: 3200 then?
Smon: Priestess Livilla opens the door in the south wall of the Air Shrine, revealing a nicely carpeted antechamber with doors in east and west walls.
genghisdon: carry on, i'll figure it out
chris107: (By the way Don, I rolled well in Blue Medusa 11 -13-18-13-14-13)
Smon: A bell hangs on a rope over the east door. Livilla opens the west door.
chris107: "What's the bell for Liv?"
genghisdon: (not using 2 15's i see, so an 18 is indeed reALLY NICE, CHRIS, GOOD ON U)
Smon: "Alarm bell - that way led outside before the collapse." Inside is a barracks cloister, the walls lined with numerous bunks.
genghisdon: the bunks appear used recently?
genghisdon: do the
Smon: Several fearful looking priests and guards are in the room.
Smon: Livilla: "The Princess is dead! Flee with the others!"
Smon: Damne: "What she said."
chris107: "Ermmm leave your loot please."
chris107: Ursa smiles sweetly
genghisdon: "answer us soem questions & no one wil lbe harmed"
Smon: The acolytes and guards throw down their money pouches and flee via the door you came in by (if you let them)
genghisdon: (we want them all to go without talking?)
chris107: yup, no probs with the riff-raff
genghisdon: Gracyone stands aside
chris107: Or talk away
genghisdon: "can they not give us information or lead us to the queen?'
genghisdon: (no worries)
chris107: Ursa is mighty pleased with his new toy and in a good mood for once.
genghisdon: mager hand soem pouches into the barbarian's packs
chris107: We are been lead to the queen
genghisdon: cool
chris107: By our new friend the Priestess Liv
Sandor Sunneson: https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/fantasy-priestess-22713410.jpg
Smon: Livilla opens the south door from the cloister (there is another door at s end of the east wall).
genghisdon: is grandma goblin & Damen stil lw us?
Smon: yes
genghisdon: Damne
chris107: yup
Smon: Damne came back.
genghisdon: cool
genghisdon: cool pic
Smon: The south door opens into what looks like a supply room filled with barrels & boxes of food, wine and incense.
genghisdon: Gracy takes a bottle of wine & some cheese
Smon: Chained naked to the far wall is a beautiful, curvaceous blonde amazon. Damne: "My Queen!"
Sandor Sunneson: pic of her GM?
Smon: Artemisia was slumped semi-conscious in the chains. Her eyes flicker open.
genghisdon: "at last, we rescue you, your Majesty"
chris107: Ursa offers his bear skin
Sandor Sunneson: We'll cut her ties
chris107: to protect her modesty
Sandor Sunneson: Get some clothes from Fion perhaps??
chris107: "Your Majesty."
genghisdon: hmm, i have little to do w chains, did we find a key recently? we have one from a couple games ago
Sandor Sunneson: (rather than a germ infested bear skin)
Smon: Artemisia - https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3dSlg51pxvjGelhnGXNxm8hFnwUg72dutopgsvBRnLpeboyEhEk8YN5gGN2DRX0DwBJdKyjdfyXSP-3BEIvPTJGLmIqEFuSBh9uLqdr1hpOkDZdQXyP67ea3iB1VENacq2H3Me5C7EK0/s1600/Queen+Artemisia+-+captured.jpg
chris107: We have a big key
chris107: a golden, gem studded one.
genghisdon: try it(?)
Sandor Sunneson: ok?
genghisdon: "iot seems a key for a noble captive"
chris107: Nice pic, were's that from Simon?
Smon: The key is too big.
chris107: yeah, why not?
Sandor Sunneson: thought it would be, lol
Smon: Artemisia: "The key... in a chest behind those barrels."
genghisdon: this might undo those chains on that door though
genghisdon: I recover the key, try it
chris107: (At 6th I get strength of the bear. I'd tear the chains to shreds!)
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will get the keys and throw them to Urta
Smon: Behind the barrels is an open crate holding a potion vial, two money sacks, and a key.
chris107: Ursa will help the Queen.
chris107: Trying the key in the lock
genghisdon: cool
Smon: Ursa unlocks the chains and puts his bear cloak round her shoulders, she nods gratefully.
genghisdon: take the potion & sacks
chris107: "Welcome M'aam)
Smon: potion of gaseous form, 1000sp, 500gp.
Sandor Sunneson: Any more treasure Priestess?
genghisdon: noted, thnx
Sandor Sunneson: apart from the harpys
chris107: Then I suggest we het the Hell out of Dodge!
Smon: Damne offers Artemisia a shoulder to lean on. "We'll get you out of here my queen."
Smon: Artemisia nods gratefully.
genghisdon: I'll cast a mage armor on her
Smon: Livilla: "The Harpy treasure is this way..."
chris107: (Do we have any healing potions?)
genghisdon: I do not
genghisdon: nor recall any
Sandor Sunneson: Yes, prior to you joining, Sandor passed them to your PC
Smon: She goes back in the Cloister then opens the east door, which has two beds, one of which clearly a Harpy nest.
genghisdon: oh
chris107: Then Ursa will give one to the Queen.
genghisdon: any harpy around?>?
Sandor Sunneson: No, we killed her in the combat
Smon: Two golden skull embossed candlesticks with ruby eyes sit on the reading desk.
genghisdon: i recall, might be more than 1 though
chris107: nice!
Smon: A glass covered case set against the far wall contains a shining spear.
genghisdon: into the sacks they go
Smon: (worth 900gp each)
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will try the spear
chris107: Very nice!
genghisdon: i suggest letting the queen be armed
Smon: Livilla: "The Harpy's spear - she didn't use it, though."
Smon: Sandor opens the case and takes the spear - +1 spear.
Sandor Sunneson: We shall pass it on at the Tower, she is not in a fit state to fight at present
Smon: Livilla: "That's all the treasure I know of."
genghisdon: ah, assumed she'd be better after the potion
chris107: "Excellent girl! You have been a first rate guide. Why not join us for a little recuperation?"
Smon: Artemisia: "uhn... "
genghisdon: since we have the quenn, i assume exploration is over, time to go?
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor is protecting the ladies and happy to head back to the Tower
chris107: "Yes, we must defend her with ou lives!2
Smon: Livilla looks at Ursa. "I'd rather go. I never wanted to be here, anyway."
Sandor Sunneson: and hands over the spear to the Princess
chris107: "Then at least let us escort you to safety?"
Sandor Sunneson: Is Kane's +1 sword retrievable too?
genghisdon: can we try the fancy key on the bound portal on the way out?
Smon: Artemisia takes the magic spear, steadying herself with it as a walking stick.
Sandor Sunneson: on the way home
genghisdon: if we find the foes, sure we get the sword...watch for that assassin, too!
Smon: GM: You head back upstairs, soon coming across the corpse of ex-zombie Kane still holding his +1 greatsword.
chris107: "Aye, you are wise Gracyone. That fella is dangerous!"
genghisdon: in fact, we had best walk with the queen completely surrounded by us
chris107: "Kane's body deserves a better resting place."
genghisdon: odd, he just gave up the ghost on his own? does the dead undead look hacked up or burnt?
Sandor Sunneson: (how many SP do we have? I was going to suggest donating it to the Goblins as thanks for providing us with Glorya)
chris107: Ursa throws Kane's body over his burly shoulder and walks infront to guard the Queen.
genghisdon: sure, 1000 sp just now
genghisdon: dunno about from before
Smon: Retracing your steps on level 7 you approach the door held closed by a heavy chain and padlock. The Nerathi key looks to fit.
genghisdon: open it to make sure
Smon: Kane's body has only the old wounds that originally killed him.
Smon: Livilla's eyes go wide as Ursa moves to open the padlock. "No!"
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 6,
Smon: LOL
chris107: (He was an enemy to the Black Sun, so a friend to Ursa)

Smon: "The Gargoyles..."
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 6,
Smon: LOL
chris107: Cripes Simon!
genghisdon: I had no designs on opening the door yet
Smon: At this moment, six gargoyles emerge from their concealment in the walls all around you!
genghisdon: but it can wait if it worries u so
Smon: The biggest ones glares down at Ursa. "GIVE US THE KEY!"
chris107: "I'll smash 'em to gravel!"
chris107: "FEWK OFF!"
Smon: "THEN DIE!!"
genghisdon: snicker, ehhehhehe HAHAHAHA

Sandor Sunneson: I'll rage then
Sandor Sunneson: oh\
chris107: Ah, cool! Then I will RAGE!

Smon: If you're not tracking rages you have 0 left since you certainly have had 3 fights since last long rest.
chris107: Then as I thought I have none left
genghisdon: what? I thought we long rested last game? I'm sure we did
genghisdon: as i was at -HP
chris107: Yup, that's what I had.
Sandor Sunneson: ditto
Smon: No you short rested end of last session
chris107: (What Simon says)
genghisdon: well, i wiped away all my stats, and clearly cannot have cast 3 more mage armors
genghisdon: sorry
genghisdon: no idea what few spells i had either
genghisdon: ah well
Smon: *sigh*
genghisdon: did 15 win for me?
genghisdon: it is fione simon
Smon: yeah gargoyles got 14
genghisdon: I'll assume i have nothing
genghisdon: scroll: web on them
genghisdon: "run AWAY!"
chris107: If we can
genghisdon: i thin kwe can, with them in web
Smon: GM Fiat: The web covers the gargoyles, giving you all time to flee (you will certainly die otherwise I reckon)
chris107: Keeping the Queen safe has to be our number 1 priority
genghisdon: (u r welcome)
Sandor Sunneson: lets scarper
chris107: KEWL! Nice one Don!
Smon: GM: You flee the angry web-covered gargoyles, up through the levels to the daylight.
genghisdon: well, i HAD a couple spells too, but no idea what/hoew mnay now, so I am runnign to goblins to sleep
Sandor Sunneson: You can have the boots of levitaion for that :P, you were going to have them anyway
genghisdon: hoenstly i figured the boots were better for one of u, but we can see
Smon: Damne: "Do we take Livilla back to the Tower or let her go?"
chris107: If she wants to come that's good
genghisdon: "she can go where she likes IMHO"
Sandor Sunneson: back to the Tower, would be interesting to find out about what was said between the Princess and Fion
Smon: You are standing at the cave mouth just outside Dyson's Delve.
genghisdon: (or was she not as helpful as she seemed just now?)
genghisdon: sorry, were we not goign to goblins?
genghisdon: Gloria can come with us too then?
chris107: (She was helpful and the Black Sun needed her, she is not one of them)
chris107: (They need her to get the Gem)
genghisdon: "everyone come with us, we should celibrate!"
Sandor Sunneson: Yes, hand back Glorya to the goblins and give them 1000sp for thanks. Without Glorya, none of this would have been achieved
Sandor Sunneson: If that's ok with Utra and everyone else?
genghisdon: I am worried they will just beat her up & take 1000 sp from her
genghisdon: what do u want to do Gloria?
Sandor Sunneson: The Sp are for the goblins, does she want to go back to the goblins?
Smon: GM: Damne nods. Glorya shrugs, nods to Gracyone, you return her to the goblin king who happily takes the 1000 sp. You march Livilla back to the Tower of Oriax, Damne supporting Queen Artemisia.
chris107: Ursa is fine with that, nothing will spoil his day.
genghisdon: ah well
Sandor Sunneson: Till we meet again Gob King
genghisdon: I make sure to tell the goblin king she was wise & awesome at least
Smon: Goblin king: "he he he!"
Smon: Glorya: "As usual."
Sandor Sunneson: And then at Tower, find out what Princess and Trogs discussed
Sandor Sunneson: via Liv and then have a knees up\
genghisdon: ok, to the tower
Smon: GM: That evening back in the Tower of Oriax, amazons take Artemisia away to tend to her while the rest of you question Livilla in a holding cell.
chris107: Looking out for assassins and other baddies
genghisdon: I don;t, I missed her beign a foe/captive
chris107: Ursa thinks we should treat Livilla kindly
genghisdon: but i'll toss a charm spell on her to loose her tongue if that's the case
Smon: Livilla looks nervously at you and Damne. "I was not party to the negotiations... I was in the Temple when you attacked, the Harpy sent me to alert Princess Cormarrin."
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor agrees
genghisdon: agree w Ursa, but clearly i am missing something
genghisdon: DC 15
Sandor Sunneson: Liv, why did they need you then? In relation to the heart?
Smon: /roll d20+2
Smon rolls 1d20+2 and gets: 18, (+2) = 20
Smon: Livilla shrugs off the charm.
genghisdon: oh well
chris107: "Wewant to protect you Liv. Trust me. I may look a bit rough but 'm on your side if you're agin the Bllack Sun."
Smon: "The Heart of Elemental Chaos... Fion planned to sanctify it with the royal blood of the Amazon Queen. A royal virgin... most puissant."
genghisdon: Gracy goes of to enjoy her wine & cheese
chris107: "What a set of b****s!"
Smon: Gracyone goes to the tower inn to enjoy wine & cheese with the other amazons.
Smon: "She believed she needed priests of the Elements to conduct the ceremony."
Smon: "The Harpy was a priestess of Air, she would lead the ceremony in conjunction with the priest of Zehir."
Sandor Sunneson: Well the heart is guarded by a huge monster, we found that out
Sandor Sunneson: any idea what they will try next?
Smon: Livilla nods. "Fion believed the troglodytes or their Dragon master held the Heart. She was negotiating with them - an alliance against the wererats, I think."
Smon: Livilla looks at Sandor. "What do you mean?"
Sandor Sunneson: You know about the Dragon, big monster, dragon, being cryptic
Smon: /roll d20+2
Smon rolls 1d20+2 and gets: 16, (+2) = 18
Smon: Livilla nods. "Dyson, they called him. Could he truly be the Dyson Logos, the First Archmage of Nerath?"
genghisdon: (yep)
chris107: That's what the Troggs think at least..
chris107: I think we must decide
chris107: If we have done our work here stopping the Black Sun.
Sandor Sunneson: what you thinking Utra?
chris107: Or if it's up to us to find this gem?
chris107: Ursa
Smon: Damne: "I say let the Dragon keep his gem."
Sandor Sunneson: For the time being, I feel we will see them again at somepoint
chris107: believes we should talk to the leaders.
genghisdon: I'm happy to explore the dyson more, unless u all have better palces to go...after i work on some magic tiems
chris107: Lady Meda, Queen Andromada, Lords Hakeem and such
Smon: Damne: "I need to get back to the village of Thusia - it is my home now, and I am sworn to defend it."
chris107: Then let us all go?
chris107: Seek Lady Meda's wisdom?
Sandor Sunneson: Is it under threat from the Black Sun?
chris107: "We are all under threat from the Black Sun."
genghisdon: surely u can celibrate this victory first Damne?
Smon: Damne: "Thusia is not threatened - not while Lady Meda defends it, with such aid as I can give."
chris107: "We need to inform the leaders of the resistance to what has happened and plan our next move."
Sandor Sunneson: Lets thank our Gods that we all survived and then through Ursa inform the leaders of the resistance and we can decide what to do next.
genghisdon: sounds good
Sandor Sunneson: Perhaps build some bridges with local tribes in this area to give it a bit more stability?
chris107: Sandor, we spent the last couple of years doing that
Smon: GM: Do you want to rest to get your strength back then travel to Thusia to meet with Meda & the leaders of the anti-Black Sun forces?
genghisdon: rest & make the magic items is my vote
chris107: Maybe we need a ode of Hakeem or some such in the blog?
Sandor Sunneson: Sorry Ursa, the politics of this area confuses me, I come from a land of large countries and stability, even though we all fight from time to time
chris107: Yes, Meda and anything the others need to do
genghisdon: so 7.5 ea, ok
Smon: GM: there are arcane labs both at the tower of Oriax & in Thusia you could use to make items potentially.
Smon: OOC finishing in 12 mins
Sandor Sunneson: Yes, is Damne happy for the time being that the threat from the Delves is temporarily dealt with?
Smon: yes
Sandor Sunneson: Cool, Sandor is happy to accompany Ursa and fight the black sun further
chris107: Ursa has heard about the 'talking stones?# He needcs to check in with his Lord Hakeem.
Smon: Damne: "Let us take this priestess to Thusia. She can tell us more about the Black Sun."
genghisdon: i leave al lthat to u 2, but Gracyone works on the bracers & ring; and votes more action in Dyson
chris107: "Aye! To Thusia!"
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will go and visit Clenderi and enjoy her company before leaving
Sandor Sunneson: I think we definetly go back there once we have gained a bit more XP
Smon: GM: You rest a few days, Sandor enjoying much rumpy-pumpy with the amazon guard commander Clenderi, before you bid the Tower of Oriax farewell.
chris107: There is much to do, outside of the Delves.
Sandor Sunneson: so not discounting it at all Don
Sandor Sunneson: Is she pregnant?
Smon: Damne, Sandor, Ursa, Gracyone and the captive priestess Livilla head out from Oriax's Tower and up into the high Ghinarian Hills.
Smon: (possibly Sandor)
genghisdon: ok
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor bids her farewell and hopes to see her again at somepoint
chris107: A nice place to be.
Smon: 5 days of hill hiking later, your group reaches the idyllic Ghinarian village of Thusia, clustered around its pleasant green within a strong stockade.
genghisdon: do i need to do anythign special to make the ring of warmth or bracers of (missile fire?)
chris107: We can pat ourselves on the back for our efforts here.
Smon: (time in an arcane lab - you need 20 days for an Uncommon item, had say 3 so far)
genghisdon: ok, as a cheat, is this worth doing or no?
Smon: Lady Meda is conducting the evening service to Mycr the Unknown God on the village green, a throng of villagers and some amazons in attendance.
chris107: You can do it at Thusia?
Smon: (yeah sure do it)
Smon: (yup)
Smon: (we can do a time jump soon)
chris107: And maybe list all the various magical items for us to distribute
Smon: Lady Meda finishes her service then welcomes you all. "The Grace of Mycr be upon you..."
Smon: OOC suggest you distribute items & cash now if you took any.
Sandor Sunneson: Lady Meda, you are alive and looking well :), God bless Mycr for awakening you from your sleep
chris107: Ursa knows well enough to bow low now
Smon: Meda looks a little puzzled at Sandor, but smiles graciously.
Smon: Damne: "Milady! Fion is dead. We have rescued Queen Artemisia, she is returning to Highhaven."
Sandor Sunneson: Was she not killed ?
Smon: nope
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will show her the head of Fion
Smon: Jana Vex did get a bit killed then raised by Meda.
Sandor Sunneson: if he has it that is
Smon: Meda looks at the head, winces slightly. "I see."
chris107: "Nice head there Sandor."
chris107: "Looks better in your hand than it ever did on her filthy shoulders."
Sandor Sunneson: You can do with it as you see fit, to ensure it is not resurrected as a zombie
Sandor Sunneson: or as herself
chris107: (Did Ursa manage to give Kaine a decent buriel?)
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor has 2 bracers worth 700gp each, boots of levitation for Gracyone ??
Sandor Sunneson: and Kaine's +1 sword
Smon: OOC ok stopping there. Can pop in tomorrow 8pm to discuss treasure & item crafting if you like. As Chris is away, suggest no politics until after my vacation. Yes Ursa gave Kane a funeral pyre in the ancient fashion.
Sandor Sunneson: Cool, 8pm tomorrow Simon?
Smon: yes
chris107: Have fun guys! Thanks for another rewarding session Simon
