7:02pm  2017-7-15 chris107 Has entered the room
7:02pm  2017-7-15 Prince Skylio Has entered the room
chris107: Evening Simon
Prince Skylio: Hello
Smon: Hi both
chris107: Evening Orc
Smon: Last week's session - http://smons.blogspot.co.uk/2017/07/lvl-3-day-26247-to-ca-3pm-sunken.html
Prince Skylio:  
chris107: Through the crenelated shooting range, pantry and into the many columned room with a door to the west
chris107: Mordred 15/25HP
Smon: You hear the high pitched yelping of many goblins in the distance...
chris107: no action surges left, 1 second wind left.
Smon: It looks like the smoky hall has many exits.
Smon: Hard to see through the murk (of WotC's terribly drawn maps)
Prince Skylio: Zagaar 25/25
Smon: 3 doors off along the n side of the pillared hall, one on the s side towards the w wall. Double doors opposite.
chris107: Can we pinpoint if the Goblin voices come from a specific direction?
Smon: It sounds like many goblins are in a commotion beyond the double doors opposite, but the doors stay shut for now.
Smon: Listening, Modred hears the sound of hobnailed boots from his right.
chris107: Mordred slips from pillar to pillar
chris107: The doors to the North?
Smon: The heavy booted steps are approaching from beyond the 2nd or 3rd door on the n wall.
Smon: Mordred moves through the Hall stealthily - where is he heading to?
Smon: There are 2 rows each of 5 pillars in the 20' wide hall.
chris107: the first pillar to the south side of it
Smon: The hall is about 60' long e-w.
Smon: OK
Smon: Mordred slips behind the pillar.
Smon: What is Zagaar doing?
Smon: He is currently at the east doorway of the smoky hall.
chris107: Loking for paractamol at the moment
Smon:
chris107: 1 min
Prince Skylio: Sorry
Prince Skylio: Zagaar was walking around the kitchen confused for 15 minutes
Smon: /roll d6
Smon rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Prince Skylio: Z will attempt to stay hidden in the pantry
Smon: OK Zagaar stays back in the pantry.
Smon: A few more moments pass.
Smon: I'm guessing Sandro has fallen back too. In the silence you hear a muffled snort from the first door on the e wall - sounds like some large beast... Then you hear a war-horn sound from behind the second or third n door.
chris107: Mordred dashes back towards the pantry
Smon: A moment later the central north door bursts open...
Smon: Mordred roll init to get out of the hall ahead of them.
chris107 rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 12, (+3) = 15
Smon: /roll d20+1
Smon rolls 1d20+1 and gets: 12, (+1) = 13
Smon: Mordred is disappearing through the pantry door as several heavily armoured Hobgoblin warriors pour into the hall from the north, one blowing a horn.
Prince Skylio: (If Z is stood in the pantry/doorway will he have enough room to swing his hammer?)
Smon: At the sound the far doors open away from you, revealing dozens of goblins hefting miscellaneous rusty implements.
Smon: /roll 2d6
Smon rolls 2d6 and gets: 5, 2, = 7
Prince Skylio: "Mordred.. What should we do?" whispers Z
chris107: "RUN!"
Smon: The south door opens too, and several woad-tattooed goblins in furs wielding shortbows also emerge.
Prince Skylio: "Let's go!"
chris107: Mordred shoots Firebolts into the wooden boxes as he sprints off behind Zagaar
Smon: As you exit the pantry you hear angry shouts in Goblin from the top-knotted hobgoblin war chief. "BREE-YARK!"
*chris107 jumps over the little castle walls and legs it*
Smon: You run from the pantry back to the archery range.
chris107: "RUN, ZAGAAR!"
Smon: DC 8 Athletics or Acrobatics to clear the wall.
chris107 rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 11, (+5) = 16
Smon: (I'll assume the Monk makes it)
Smon: Zagaar has +6 so fail on a 1 I think?
Prince Skylio rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 17, (+8) = 25
Smon: +8?
Smon: +4 STR +2 Prof?
Prince Skylio: oops chris confused me
Smon: Then I forgive you.
Prince Skylio: yes +6
Prince Skylio: 23
Smon: Easily vaulting the little wall you flee back the way you came.
Smon: You see Meepo ahead of you.
Smon: "Nasty goblins!" he mutters.
chris107: "RUN! MEEPO"
Smon: GM: Do you flee back to Meepo's hall, where there's a barred door?
chris107: yes please
Prince Skylio: yup
Smon: There is much clashing of shields and scornful yelling from behind you, but the enemy seem to be pursuing at a fairly sedate pace. By the time you reach Meepo's hall with him and latch the door closed, the sounds of pursuit are far off.
Smon: Meepo: "Whew! ...Did you find my Dragon?" he asks hopefully.
chris107: "Phew!"
Prince Skylio: "We heard a sound of a large beast..."
Prince Skylio: "Way too many goblins to see what it was though. We had to escape"
Smon: Meepo nods. "Calcryx! Nasty goblins! Bet they not treat him right!"
Smon: Meepo sighs sadly. "Chief Yusdrayl be angry we not rescue dragon."
chris107: "Do you have any friends that could help us fight so many Goblins?"
Smon: Meepo nods.
Smon: His kobold eyes look up at you puppy-dog style.
Smon: "I have three friends!" he says proudly.
Smon: "You... and you... and you!"
Smon: "You help me get dragon? Later, when nasty goblins sleep again?"
chris107: "Go fetch them. We'll rest here...Groan...."
Prince Skylio: "Hmmmmm"
Prince Skylio: "It does seem very dangerous down there Meepo..."
Smon: Meepo nods. "Big goblins are nasty."
chris107: Mordred presses his ear to the barred doors, listning for signs of peruit.
Prince Skylio: "Meepo, say we can find and release this dragon of yours.. Would it help us fight off the goblins?"
Smon: "Before big goblins came, little goblins not so bad. Sell apples to humans."
Smon: Meepo nods eagerly. "Calcryx very powerful! Look at scars he give me!"
Smon: He shows off some deep scars on his right shoulder.
Prince Skylio: "I think you need a new pet"
chris107: "We are not dressed for sneaking, Zagaar.."
Smon: No sign of pursuit - looks like you lost them back there.
Smon: Dragon not pet!" Meepo looks aghast at the suggestion/
chris107: I have one healing dice left, can we short rest? OOC
Smon: "Dragon surrounds us, holds us, binds us together! Dragon is mother! Dragon is father!"
Smon: You settle down and short rest (now 4pm).
Smon: can spend hd.
chris107: "Perhaps Sandro could sneak in and release the dragon?"
chris107 rolls 1d10+1 and gets: 1, (+1) = 2
chris107: 17/25
Smon:
Smon: Sandro looks dubious.
Smon: OOC don't want to get Fergus' PC killed when he's not here.
chris107: We can die all on our own thanks
Smon: Meepo sighs: "You all wounded... Maybe you need rest, heal? Then we come back and get dragon?"
chris107: "That sounds like a good idea."
Smon: Meepo: "I come with you?" He says, hopefully.
chris107: "Sure thing, Meepo."
chris107: Back and rest in the cells?
Smon: Meepo grins broadly. "You true friends! We four adventurers now!"
Smon: GM: You want to long rest in the infested cells(?!)
chris107: or there was another pillared hall?
Prince Skylio: "So Meepo, want to help us? What if we could get you close enough to release your beloved Calcryx? You're the only one with experience. And the only one small enough to not be detected.."
chris107: (not been blessed with room descriptions only my pencil map...
Smon: Meepo seems to think you're taking him back to human town for a luxury all-expenses vacation.
chris107: Meepo is mistaken.
Smon: Meepo nods to Zagaar. "Yes! We help each other! Right?"
Prince Skylio: "Yeah sure"
Prince Skylio: "We get your dragon back. Your chief is happy. We can find the adventurers. If you don't get kil- I mean as long as that's okay Meepo?"
chris107: "Zagaar, maybe it's time we went and told old lady Hucrele what we know? Show her the Rangers ring, explain the situation and get back up?"
Smon: The kobold chief's hall had pillars, so did the smoky hall in goblin territory.
chris107: Nust be the Kobold chief's room then.
Smon: Meepo nods to Zagaar.
chris107: "Bugger this then, Zagaar. We're off."
Prince Skylio: *sigh* "okay..."
Smon: GM: Are you heading back to Bratanis now?
chris107: "We'll see you soon, Meepo,"
chris107: Yup
Smon: Meepo looks disconcerted: "You not want Meepo come with you?!"
chris107: No point the two of us ending up dead.
Prince Skylio: "We'll be back soon Meepo. You won't be safe back in town, most people don't even take kindly to me there"
Smon: Meepo nods. "You do look weird."
chris107: (OOC also as Mordred only gets his spells and such once a week, I think we need a weeks rest.)
Smon: "But I don't mind."
Prince Skylio: "Thanks Meepo"
Smon: Meepo smiles sadly and waves you all goodbye.
Smon: /roll d8
Smon rolls 1d8 and gets: 3,
chris107: "Bye, Meepo!"
Smon: You emerge from the Sunken Citadel to a light drizzle.
Smon: It's about 4.30pm.
Smon: You ascend the ravine and begin the hike back to Bratanis.

Smon: /roll d12
Smon rolls 1d12 and gets: 4,
Smon: The journey is uneventful and as dusk is falling you come down out of the hills, cross the stone bridge over the Thrace river, and join the crowd of shepherds & sheep returning through the gates. Among the queuing shepherds you see Shelos & Misha, hand in hand.
Smon: Shelos: "Welcome back friends! How was your day?"
chris107: "Dangerous. But we have news. Some at least."
Smon: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioIjqLzaTKZ5qNFJRMTij1maFQdhjk_3hz576GJ4xAUCOo0LX5an14SsMup-Zq18jY1zkx1Mwe56iqd_4PQasHda22jtFLhOA51EL0lYJGtuznM_S7jndMynnoNeV_GW387KN23Wx5ML8/s320/Shelos+the+Shepherd.jpg
Smon: "News, me too!"
Smon: He grins, clearly excited.
Smon: "You first, friends!"
chris107: "Let's grab a beer and I'll tell you all about it."
Smon: Shelos & Misha reach the head of the queue, driving their sheep in with aid of a new young shep-hound.
Smon: Shelos: "I'll get this lot penned, then see you at the Inn, friends."
chris107: Mordred sips at his ale and tells of their discoveries in the Sunless Citadel. Off their encounter with Meepo, his captured Dragon and the information that the Koblods gave us regarding the missing folks. He mentions findingKarakas and shows them the ring. Then goes on to describe the Goblin defences and the Hobgoblin defenders.
Smon: 6.30pm Arriving weary and footsore at the Bratanis Inn, the bar wenches bring you foaming mugs of ale and you are soon relaxing. Shelos and Misha come in, still hand in hand.
Smon: The shepherds listen in wonder. Shelos: "I wonder if the tales of the Gulthias Tree can really be true..."
chris107: "It would seem so."
Smon: Misha nods: "Mako did seem in great spirits after he ate that apple."
chris107: "The Hobgoblins seem to be the villians of the piece."
Smon: She nods over at Mako the halfling Innkeep.
chris107: "Forcing the Goblins to withold the apples and capturing the Dragon."
chris107: "But with only two of us. It would have been certain death."
Smon: Shelos nods: "Hobgoblins are foul beasts! I heard Adventurers drove them from the Tomb of St Ulther... They must have settled further west."
chris107: "We are only novices. I fear it will take more seasoned warriors to fight them."
chris107: "But we have the news we were sent to find."
Smon: Shelos nods. "Perhaps once Archermos has a war band trained, he will lead them south into battle with these hobgoblins and destroy them all."
Smon: "Aye?"
chris107: "We can only hope he will be in time."
Prince Skylio: "I hope Meepo is okay..." Z looks deep in thought
chris107: "We are pretty sure that the adventurers we were sent to find are captives of or victims of the Hobgoblins."
Prince Skylio: "Uh.. I mean. I need another beer" Z walks to the bar with a masculine swagger
Smon: Misha: "They say hobgoblins are born from the rape of human women by goblins - that's why they are all male."
chris107: "Just horrid."
Smon: LOL @Zagaar
Prince Skylio: "nice"
Smon: Misha sighs and sips her beer. "It's a horrid world... At least we rescued you, eh Shelos?"
chris107: "For a handful of gold, we dare not risk further investigation."
Smon: Shelos nods, arm round her shoulders. "Aye, my love! And now we are to wed!"
chris107: "Now, what was your news?"
chris107: "Congratulations!"
Smon: The busty red head server refills Zagaar's flagon with a smile.
Prince Skylio: "yeah I'm going need a seriously bigger paycheck if I'm expected to get raped by goblins"
Prince Skylio: "thanks, what's your name?" Z grins at the server
chris107:
Smon: "Candice Wright, my Lord... of Yggsburgh."
Smon: She smiles up at the tusky beau.
Prince Skylio: "Well Candrice I might just be the Wright guy for you"
chris107: Mordred rolls his eyes and groans
Smon: Candice - https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJapaNqVPB4K5GHNVkaV6bYRyLLGzRZF7y_cZctIYXRAqAlIN0qwl46S-3uVEipOJu4nqyCX6GBUfAwonLxHbZmYBlC_o8oCSFQtydTVfnRZoHmIpm3rEXca5_U0tmgSHcPRSScCMxNXYu/s1600/Candice+Wright,+wealthy+heiress.png
Smon: She titters, then looks to Mako, who nods.
Smon: Misha leans in and whispers to Mordred: "That's one of those crazy Oriax girls."
Smon: "Thinks she's a Princess or something."
chris107: "Oriax?"
Smon: Misha: "The Horned Goat! The Lecherous One? Surely you've heard of him?"
chris107: "Only in legend."
chris107: "I hear he lives in a magical lighthouse a thousand feet tall?"
Smon: Shelos: "Aye! He brought many a fair maid into his tower, sold them like beasts... Until the Great Lord Hakeem drove him out."
chris107: "And brings slave girls from other worlds to serve him?"
Smon: Misha nods: "That's what Candice there says, anyway. She was a princess in a great city in a faraway never never land..."
chris107: "Praise the Lady of the Dawn for his downfall."
Smon: "...Until the Evil Wizard brought her here."
chris107: "Shocking behaviour, jolly bad form."
chris107: Mordred disapproves
Smon: Candice to Zagaar: "Shall I come sit with you, milord?"
Prince Skylio: "you're more than welcome, princess"
Smon: Shelos: "One day, they say, Oriax will return, for a final battle with Lord Hakeem."
Smon: Zagaar returns to the table with beer, Candice esconces herself on his lap.
chris107: "Then I hope he gets what he deserves!"
Smon: Candice: "Who? Oriax? Oh..." she sighs sadly at her ill-fortune.
chris107: Mordred doles out the various treasures we have aquired
Smon: Your friends look on with interest.
chris107: "Yes, sounds like a beastly fellow."
Prince Skylio: "You're safe with me Candice"
Smon: GM: A week at the Inn will be 3.5gp each.
Smon: Candice giggles at Zagaar.
chris107: We have one find of 17GP
chris107: I'll cross off enough for three of us.
Smon: So deduct 10.5?
chris107: yup
Smon: Zagaar make a DC 5 CHA check to not fart, belch or drool too disgustingly.
Prince Skylio rolls 1d20 and gets: 2,
Smon: LOL
chris107: OOC Looks like Fergus is unable to join us this evening?
chris107:
Prince Skylio: "i think i'm drunk"
Smon: +2 Prof = 4, fail
Smon: dunno
Smon: Candice winces, soon reminded why one doesn't date half-orcs.... "I better see to the kitchen."
Smon: She rises, leaving Zagaar unlucky in love once again.
chris107: OOC Was chatting with him last night and he seemed keen, maybe his tour is running late?
Prince Skylio: "she wasn't my type anyway"
Prince Skylio: "slag"
chris107:
Smon: I think he said might be 9.30?
Smon: Misha grins: "She wasn't right for you, Zagaar."
chris107: Mordred quietly dies inside.
Prince Skylio: "you on the other hand seem prime for some orc loving"
Smon: Shelos: "So, as I was saying... we are to be wed in a sixday! Father Eberus will officiate."
Prince Skylio: "you know what i'm definitelty drunk"
chris107:
Prince Skylio: "do i still get an invite to the wedding"
chris107: "Er,,,Yes, what a handsome couple you will make!"
Smon: Misha: "Only one lover for me, Orc.." She grins, hugging Shelos tighter.
chris107: He hastily talks over the wretched drunk
Smon: Shelos: "My friends, I wish you to be Best Men at my wedding!"
Smon: "Without you, I would be dead!"
Prince Skylio: "if there is ale and bridesmaids i'm there"
chris107: "Well, only if you will accept these as wedding gifts from the three of us?"
chris107: Mordred hands over the three 25GP gems we found
Smon: Misha nods: "My slave girl friends will be bridesmaiding - I expect one of them will like you. Berta the Fat or Holma the Plain, maybe."
Smon: Shelos' eyes widen at the sight of the gems. "Riches beyond belief! You honour me too much, friends!"
chris107: (OOC, nearly £4K, should pay towards the reception  )
Prince Skylio: Zagaar looks sad and lifts his right hand to stare at it. "Looks like it's just you and me old friend"
Smon: Misha eyes Zagaar. "I reckon Berta could definitely go for an Orc like you."
chris107: "Is this Bertha blind an doesn't have nose?"
chris107: "No offence."
chris107: He adds hastily
Smon: Misha: "No indeed! She has a very... retrousee nose, as the Antillians say. Bit like his." (Zagaar's)
chris107: Mordred tries not to vomit in his ale, thinking about this great beauty.
chris107: "I'm sure they would make a lovely couple."
8:21pm  2017-7-15 sandor sunneson Has entered the room
sandor sunneson: evening boyz
chris107: Evening Fergus
Prince Skylio: "Maybe they'll have one for you too Mordred."
Prince Skylio: "Or maybe you could just head back to your room and make love to your owl"
sandor sunneson: Hi Chris, Kyle and GM
chris107: "Alas, I am married to the job, Zagaar,"
Prince Skylio: OOC Hi Fergus
chris107: Mordred loftily ignores the stinking Orc. Obviosly drunk.
Smon: Hi Fergus
Prince Skylio: "pussy"
sandor sunneson: How's it going so far? No change of mind for Hakeem fighting that tall bloke?
chris107: He orders more ale for us and the happy couple.
sandor sunneson: Hi Simon
chris107: wrong game, Fergus
Smon: GM: The group heroically retreated from the Goblin Horde and returned to the Bratanis Inn for a night of drinking.
sandor sunneson: very focused Chris
chris107: and a week to recover my two spells
sandor sunneson: Oh yeah, staying alive
Smon: Shelos & Misha announced they are to wed in 6 days.
chris107: Perfect timing.
sandor sunneson: Lovelt
Smon: GM: Next morning you go report to Lady Hucrele as her carriage is readying to leave.
Smon: She is with Lady Thuvia Bratanis in the Bratanis Hall.
Prince Skylio: "....My head is pounding.. What happened last night"
Smon: Hucrele: "Welcome friends. I heard you returned last night... What news?"
Smon: I suspect Zagaar awoke in the sheep pen...
Smon: *bbaaaaaaa*
chris107: "Tell them, Zagaar."
Smon: At least *those* girls never say no...
chris107: hris107: Mordred sips at his ale and tells of their discoveries in the Sunless Citadel. Off their encounter with Meepo, his captured Dragon and the information that the Koblods gave us regarding the missing folks. He mentions findingKarakas and shows them the ring. Then goes on to describe the Goblin defences and the Hobgoblin defenders.
chris107: except minus the ale
Prince Skylio: "...Uh... We met a Kobold.. We searched for a dragon.. Your friend Karakas or whatever is dead.. Uh Mordred I'm not good at this stuff"
chris107: "Anything to add my alert friends?"
Prince Skylio: "Sorry I had a lot to drink last night"
chris107:
sandor sunneson: Nope, well summarised
chris107: Another little bit of Mordred dies.
Smon: Stout Lady Hucrele nods sadly, turning the ring in her fingers.
Smon: "Most likely my niece and nephew have met a similar fate, then. Thank you for this news."
chris107: "My heart weeps for you, dear lady."
Prince Skylio: "Mordred do you know any spells to get rid of indegestion" Zagaar vaguely recalls a flurry of white wool in his mouth from the previous night
Smon: "Although Karakas is not a relative, I would like to reward you for returning this. Would twenty gold suffice?"
chris107: "That is most kind."
chris107: He gives Zagaar a hard stare
Prince Skylio: Z's eyes gleam "yes. sorry for your loss. but yes. definitely"
chris107: "later! You oaf." he hisses
Smon: The Lady takes the ring and hands you 20gp from her pouch.
Smon: (Nearly 2 weeks at the Inn!)
Smon: GM: Hucrele: "If you have more news, seek me in Ahyf." Archermos the Weaponmaster approaches you.
Smon: Hucrele mounts her carriage and trundles off north.
chris107: Mordred slips the coins into his tunic and away from the grasp of light fingered Monks and grasping degenerate Orcs
sandor sunneson: Dinner on you then!
Smon: Archermos: "Friends, you are the first to return from the Sunless Citadel since I have been Weaponmaster here. What threats did you encounter?"
chris107: "I just paid for your hotel stay you ingrate."
Prince Skylio: "lots of goblins. and hobgoblins"
Prince Skylio: "and a big rat but I squashed it with The Verminator" Z gestures to his hammer
Smon: GM: Zagaar senses he's been watched. Glancing past Archermos, he sees Misha with a ravishing vision of loveliness... https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/7f/6a/20/7f6a201ece6c0f1abf750034299c757e--bolton-game-of-thrones-bolton-got.jpg
Smon: Archermos grins: "A fine hammer indeed!"
chris107: "You could do a lot worse mate."
Smon: Misha is pointing out Zagaar. The slave girl with her titters and waves.
sandor sunneson: Any holes a goal
Prince Skylio: Zagaar waves back merrily "Maybe she has a better looking sister"
chris107: "There is a chance, Master Archermos, that the folks are still alive. "
chris107: "Alas, we are not overly skilled. So far."
Smon: Berta smiles and titters more. Archermos frowns and turns round. "You two girls should be out in the fields! Sheep to Shep, crops to plant!"
Prince Skylio: "Archermos I know this is serious business but you are totally cockblocking right now"
chris107: Mordred hangs his head in shame.
Smon: Archermos shoos off the ladies, then turns back to you. "Still alive, eh?"
Prince Skylio: Zagaar realises he is probably never getting laid again ever
Prince Skylio: "Unfortunately, yes. Yes we are."
chris107: "Not for long if he tackles that."
Smon: Archermos eyes Zagaar. "Don't worry my Orcish friend - come Misha's wedding I'm sure there'll be revelry for all!"
sandor sunneson: lol
chris107: Mordred points at the retreating monster
Smon: OOC Fergus - Zagaar had to roll a 3+ on a CHA check to bed a hot busty redhead slave girl.... rolled 2.
chris107: Art imitating life
sandor sunneson: Sandro says that after the wedding, he is considering setting off to Belaras, he needs to pass on this staff to Larsonos (shows staff) and asks if those 2 want to join him
sandor sunneson: Setting the tone.....
chris107: "Yeah sure Sandro, you've been such a help, how could we say no?"
chris107: "But I do need to relearn the two spells I get a week."
sandor sunneson: Not sure what he wants with it. Sure well can set off once your ready
chris107: "And the hotel is paid for..."
Prince Skylio: "mordred if you made a spell that made candice fancy me would that be rape or not"
Prince Skylio: "in fact never mind"
chris107: Mordred retreats inside the inn, pretending he didn't hear.
Smon: GM: Moving on... For the next 6 days the good folk of Bratanis work to erect a new hovel for the happy couple.
chris107: To preserva at least a little of his tattered dignity
sandor sunneson: Erect, snigger snigger
chris107: "By the way, Sandro. You gifted the happy couple a gem. One of the ones Zagaar and I rescued."
Smon: 2/3/47 BCCC Aphrodite sends her protection and the day of the wedding dawns bright and clear.
Smon: Strange rumours have come from the north of hordes of Lizardmen seen on the road, heading towards Trade on the coast.
Smon: And a mighty Wyvern flying above them.
chris107: Mordred combs his hair and polishes his armour
chris107: ready for the big day
Smon: Mako the Innkeep: "I heard rumours of a great battle in the Caverns of Thracia... Hakeem and the Dragonborn Prince Shieldbiter have triumphed once more! Slain the First King of the Dragon Lords and taken his head!"
chris107: "Well, that all sounds very poitive."
Smon: Mako points to a dark haired girl eating breakfast with two amazons at an inn table. "She there told me - Aya the Slinger she's called. She's off to Selatine to be the new Weaponmaster or somesuch."
Smon: Mako beams. "Aye! With Lord Hakeem to protect us, these hills are safe from all harm!"
Smon: "Did I tell you about the time he destroyed the army of Warlord Yusan?"
Smon: "Or the time he closed the Black Sun Gate and collapsed all their zombie hordes?"
chris107: "Sounds like he's been a busy fellow."
Smon: Ellen the barmaid speaks up from scrubbing the bar: "He's the greatest. They say he's Bondor, come again."
sandor sunneson: A man to lead men he sounds like
chris107: ""sPLENDID CHAP, i'M SURE. dRIVING OFF EVIL WIZARDS AND WHAT-NOT? tOP NOTCH."
Smon: Ellen - https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsZeMEPn_2sU95CCeX2bH_srAmxhwz2_D4Ozl6V6SgIoTC0zNQgHtKOME13oXCauXvql1EqQi5AFZqtgfhasmbTwmFg0159uDgoDT6kV4OoINFjX6ONE4aCQ6_crdaLTpEX1M3sIiUNwg/s320/Ellen.png
Smon: Mako nods. "I expect those migrating lizardmen are his doing, too. Probably joining his army."
sandor sunneson: He sounds as if he has lots on this plate Hakeem chap, wonder if he just wishes he could be somewhere else, sunning himself on a beach.
Smon: "Soon there'll be the Final Battle. Hakeem will crush the Black Sun - like that!" His fist descends on a bap, flattening it.
Smon: Mako: "No no, he's a real Hero! His destiny is to save us all."
Smon: Mako: "Now, scuse me while I bring these Amazon ladies more baps..."
chris107: Mordred looks on blankly. having no idea who this chap they are talking about is.
sandor sunneson: Don't sound impressed by him Morders?
Smon: GM: You rest that day (you can do your Long Rest recovery stuff now) and gather that evening for the wedding by the Shrine of Zeus, decked out in Aphrodite's flowers for the occasion.
chris107: "Sounds like this Prince Shieldbiter knows what he's doing."
Smon: The whole village is there, Lady Thuvia, Misha in one of the Lady's dresses borrowed for the occasion.
chris107: Mordred is more impressed by rank, sure that a prince can do better than some common Barbarian.
Smon: Ellen: "It's so nice of the Lady to lend Misha such a lovely white dress!"
Smon: Mako in his best halfling samurai armour.
chris107: Mordred admires the cool armour.
Smon: The free and slave shepherds, including Berta among the bridesmaids, wreathed in vegetation for the occasion.
sandor sunneson: Looking good Mako
Smon: Mako grins up at Sandro: "Been polishing it all night! Ain't worn it in years!"
chris107: "Fuck! That's a lot of vegetation!"
Prince Skylio: "since when did you swear"
Smon: Father Eberus the Wise indicates for the Best Men to take their places to Shelos' side.
Prince Skylio: "and snazzy armour Mako"
chris107: Mordred blushes, forgetting his courtly manners for a brief moment at the Shambling Mounds he sees opposite
Prince Skylio: Z makes his way over to Shelos' side
Smon: "Dear Beloved, we are gathered together today in the sight of Aphrodite, Hera and all the gods of our land, to witness the union of..."
Smon: LOL
Smon: Berta's resemblance to http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/assets/91209/ShamblingMound1.jpg is quite striking.
Prince Skylio: hot
chris107:
Smon: Misha is looking exquisite in the Lady's virginal white dress, with a crown of red-pink flowers.
chris107: Mordred will be all courtly manners and well behaved, genuinly wishing the happy couple well.
chris107: He was just a bit shocked.
Smon: "...If any man or women here knows of a reason why these two should not be joined, let him speak now..."
Prince Skylio: Zagaar burps
Smon: OOC Fergus Berta the bridesmaid - https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/7f/6a/20/7f6a201ece6c0f1abf750034299c757e--bolton-game-of-thrones-bolton-got.jpg
Smon: "Shelos of Bratanis, do you take this woman to be your lawful wedded wife?"
Prince Skylio: Z winks at Berta
Smon: "I do"
sandor sunneson: How radiant
Smon: Berta titters and waves back.
chris107:
Prince Skylio: "Mordred.. Is this not a bit awkward for you.. You know after you named your owl after her" Z whispers
chris107: "Hush, you oaf."
Smon: "Misha, now of Bratanis, do you take this man to be your lawful wedded husband, to love honour and obey, until death do you part?"
Prince Skylio: "Just a few of the guys were talking and it kind of seems like you were some desperate stalker or something but hey it's just a rumour I'm sure its nothing" he whispers
Smon: Misha glances over at Mordred, pauses for just a second, then says "I do."
Smon: "You may kiss the bride."
Smon: The crowd cheers.
Prince Skylio: yay
sandor sunneson: Snadro applauds
chris107: The last vestige of self respect perishes in Mordred's breast.
Smon: As darkness falls the bonfire is lit and the feast brought out.
chris107: He cheers as best he can.
Smon: Great tubs of mead are produced from Mako's cellar, while sheep roast on their spits.
chris107: "Too late, Zagaar."
Smon: Zagaar gets chatting with the lovely and frondrous Berta...
Smon: CHA check DC 5 Zagaar.
chris107: Mordred points at the dead sheep
Prince Skylio: "Hi Berta. You must be the sentient pork scratching that Misha was telling me about. How goes your evening?"
Prince Skylio rolls 1d20 and gets: 10,
Smon: Berta giggles "Oh, you!" She punches Zagaar affectionately in the gut.
chris107: 5HP?
sandor sunneson: (what time you playing till?)
sandor sunneson: (we even)
Smon: "I hear you're a great hero, Zagaar! You saved Shelos!"
sandor sunneson: lol
Prince Skylio: "Yeah. That was all me. Nice veg love"
chris107: (Just opened another bottle here, Fergus, so whenever )
Smon: "I know! Isn't it! We were up for *hours* last night weaving it in!" She points to a cabbage on her chest, and some slightly wilted leaks.
chris107: Mordred scurries off. Mortal afraid of what may come next.
Smon: "...So, ere, you got plans to settle down? Get married too, like?"
Prince Skylio: "That's lovely Berta. So do you also enjoy anal I mean asparagus as it is one of my favourite vegetables"
sandor sunneson: (I'm working tomorrow, off to Oban, happy to let you chaps play on)
chris107:
sandor sunneson: (I'll play till 2230)
Prince Skylio: "Not yet Berta. Maybe if I meet the right lady but alas my heart is torn"
Smon: Berta frowns slightly "Yes... asparagus is very nice. I like the big juicy ones best!"
Smon: "Torn?"
chris107: (That works for me, Fergus)
Smon: She puts a chubby hand on Z's.
Smon: (yes 10.30 good, or may be a bit earlier)
Prince Skylio: "There's this woman I like who sometimes wears cabbages but I don't know if she likes me back"
Smon: Berta blinks. "Oh, that's a coinci... I ... ow!"
Smon: She smiles broadly.
Smon: "I bet she does, you know! Say, why don't we take a walk down by the river? I know I'll be safe with YOU to look after me!"
Prince Skylio: "you sure will Berta"
chris107: Mordred prays that this fades to black!
Smon: GM: I'm prepared to draw a veil over the rest of the wedding night's revelry...
Smon: X-post
sandor sunneson: (Can do 10.20, so ten min or so to organise next game(s))
chris107: OOC If a night with Berta doesn't get Zagaar to 4th level. Nothing will!
Prince Skylio: Zagaar takes 400 damage to his pelvic region
chris107: CR19?
Smon: 3/3/47 Zagaar awakens this time in his room at the inn, to a sound like thunder... Berta is beside him, snoring contentedly.
Smon: Well, it has to beat sheep, right?
chris107: You think?
Prince Skylio: Zagaar has no regrets.
Smon: That seems a good place to stop. Are you planning to head west to the Temple of Belaras now?
Smon: Deliver the stick?
chris107: Yup, Sandro's stick needs delivering. Happy to help
Prince Skylio: Zagaar delivered the stick the previous night
Prince Skylio: But in all seriousness yes
