Euma the Barmaid
Nightshadow gains influence over the young Innkeep Rado d'Sewer, son of the dead wererat matriarch Rada d'Sewer. Rado's barmaid Euma shrieks and flees when he reveals his (possible) wererat-iness to her. Prisha's girl Delanie hooks up with Nightshadow's boy Ironfist. Eumalia less enthusiastically with Ironhead. Rado fancies Prisha, unrequited.
Sandor arrives with his 8 amazons and declares Hakeem has made him King. Koloth grudingly says he may court Queen Lyssana for the Kingship.
Prisha and Nightshadow win places in Koloth's court as Priestess & Fool. Fool Nightshadow makes psychic contact with Koloth's telepathic Minkai slave girl, Joko Inaba.

7:28pm  2018-1-31 Smon Has entered the room
Smon: Hi Jorian
Smon: Just got Bill's PC levelled up
joriandrake: hello
joriandrake: editing my char sheet to include things like (conc) (bon)(8h) modifier for spells
joriandrake: nice
Smon: good work
Smon: last Prisha session - http://smons.blogspot.co.uk/2018/01/14-15747-babes-in-vale.html
joriandrake: I should ask, if we get into a battle how likely is the npc girls get dragged into it/die?
joriandrake: or will they be left behind?
joriandrake: i consider 'boosting them' with Aid
joriandrake: as far I know the group will be pretty mixed with Bill, Prisha, Sandor, and the girls as far levels/hp goes
Smon: I would guess they'd typically not be targetted if not fighting
Smon: But it varies by opponent
Smon: Undead might go for nearest warm body
Smon: Predators want easy meat
joriandrake: ok, well plus x hp should be useful for them, what is Bill's char level now?
Smon: 8
joriandrake: ok, so it will be fine if I just use an Aid on the girls
Smon: ok
7:34pm  2018-1-31 DESTROYERBILL Has entered the room
joriandrake: I wish to add a note to my char sheet for Prisha about the power of mind reading/suggestion there
DESTROYERBILL: hello
Smon: Hi Bill
joriandrake: SO I wont forget, would those abilities if succeeded not reveal they got manipulated after it? Not know of it, or know right away about it?
joriandrake: hi bill!
DESTROYERBILL: hi
Smon: 15/7/47: Late afternoon - Prisha and co on the road, reach crossroads. Sandor Maglor & the amazons bid them farewell and head on to Highhaven while Prisha & her girls head to Carchimish.
Smon: Slow going, Delanie has sore feet in her new boots. After an uncomfortable night's camp in some old ruins they continue west, reaching the town of Carchimish mid-afternoon 16/7.
joriandrake: "I guess we're on our own then. We should seek out the new king and the mayor, if the town has one. Have some rest"
joriandrake: Prisha tells the other girls
Smon: The gate guard goggles somewhat at the glamorous four, but directs them to an Inn across the market square from the royal palace in the middle of town.
joriandrake: "Probably best to find an inn first" She ponders
joriandrake: With a smile and nod Prisha thanks for the guard's help.
Smon: "Try the Harper's Cauldron ladies"
joriandrake: "Thank you vey much. May Meroya grant you happiness."
Smon: "Rado d'Sewer runs it, nice young fellow, he'll see you right."
Smon: The guard beams happily at the blessing.
Smon: Carchimish map - https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-EA_iI4LKdE0nCQNYvGw5r9F23XVk1ba0lThIhrNlnAWAB2_D5MFDCvN5IqOYtwwNN-KIkUc-GvLU-ep-z4_4tGLYrq-RoQx3JZMw4h9UnKcER6msp-5dOUqdJ-dkYFs2gTyHQHYdFck/s1600/Carchimish.jpg
joriandrake: Prisha and the girls continue on their way to the Inn. Taking in the sights on the way.
Smon: Heading west from the East Gate, Prisha & co soon reach the town square north of the extensive royal palace.
Smon: Carchimish has clearly seen better days, with many abandoned buildings, though some sign of rebuilding.
Smon: Roll DC 8 WIS+Prof Survival Prisha
Smon: d20+wis+3
joriandrake: Prisha closes her eyes murmurring a soft prayer
joriandrake: ok
joriandrake rolls 1d30+6 and gets: 8 (+6) = 14
joriandrake: ignore
joriandrake: ((typo))
joriandrake rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 11, (+6) = 17
Smon: Prisha locates the right inn and enters the dim-lit recesses; Delanie Esmalia & Mealia following.
Smon: GM: The inn is a two-storey timber and brick building, with a gray tile roof. Accomodations consist of several large rooms with beds and straw mattresses and several hammocks in the common room.
joriandrake: She looks around, seearching for the innkeeper or a maid
Smon: A well dressed young man serves at the bar, while a buxom blonde serving wench is serving a late lunch or early dinner to two middle aged matrons, merchants' wives perhaps.
Smon: At the bar sit a priest of Mitra and a half-elven scholar deep in animated conversation.
DESTROYERBILL: heelooo
joriandrake: Prisha goes and greets the young man or serving wench (depending on which seems occupied less)
joriandrake: "Hello, we would like to rent out a room and get a meal as well."
Smon: Strumming a mandolin idly by the cold fireplace is a bard type, pleasant in appearance, with tangled black hair and dark amber eyes. He wears modest garments and a red dragonscale cloak.
Smon: In one corner sits a trio, two big Altanian warriors and a dark-haired, dark-eyed man in midnight black.
Smon: From the corner Nightshadow sees the gaggle of beautiful women come in.
joriandrake: As she waits Prisha takes a closer look at the other guests, the musician, ect.
DESTROYERBILL: boys go on
Smon: The youngest among them, one of two half elves, apparently the leader. She looks around, eyes settling on the innkeep Rado.
Smon: The dark man - Nightshadow to Prisha: "Heeelooo"
Smon: The Innkeep looks up smiling: "Hello ladies! How can I help you?"
joriandrake: Prisha nods with a flash of smile at the man and turns to the innkeep "I would like to take a room for me and my sisters. I hope you have one free."
Smon: "Of course milady! A room with two beds, little cosy but I'm sure you can all fit in." He smiles.
joriandrake: ooc a sec I got called over
DESTROYERBILL: yoll dont look like sisters
Smon: A gorgeous & very shapely blonde behind Prisha smiles a little uncertainly at Nightshadow. "We're not..."
joriandrake: ooc back
Smon: She takes a step forward. "I'm Delanie." She has a farmer's accent.
Smon: A slim half elf girl regards Nightshadow & co more coolly. "And I'm Mealia. We're up from Capricia."
joriandrake: "Indeed" Prisha smiles. "We will all fit in, and can just puch t he beds together if needed." Then Prisha turns to Nightshadow
joriandrake: "Greetings!" She smiles "We're sisters in faith. That is what I meant."
Smon: The last one, a shapely brunette, bows sligthtly: "And I'm Esmalia. We serve Lady Prisha and the Goddess, Meroya."
Smon: NS has never heard of this Meroya.
DESTROYERBILL: okay i guess
Smon: Prisha's clothes are strange & exotic.
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 14, (+4) = 18
joriandrake: Prisha turns back to discuss the room with the innkeep and pay upfront
Smon: NS recognises her by her dusky skin & clothes as from faraway Karak.
Smon: (like India)
joriandrake: "For one night please, we might later make it longer."
Smon: The Innkeep nods. "Certainly! I'll have the maid ready your room. With board, that will be two gold please."
Smon: The Carchimishi matrons regard Prisha & her girls disapprovingly.
joriandrake: "Do you wish to eat now, before we go to the room, or rather get comfy before a meal?" Prisha asks her fellow travellers as she picks out two coins from her purse hidden in the sash and pays
Smon: The men in the taproom seem a lot more approving.
Smon: Delanie: "Let's freshen up first!"
Smon: Esmalia: "I am hungry though - I could eat a Shagpa!"
Smon: She giggles.
joriandrake: Without blinking Prisha turns at the women who look most obviously and smiles brightly with a small bow at them "Greetings, may you all find happiness and good health"
Smon: Roll Persuasion CHA+Prof Prisha
joriandrake: Then turns to Esmalia "Let us leave our gear in the room and freshen up a bit, then we come down and eat without the burden."
joriandrake rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 7, (+7) = 14
Smon: The matrons - one has a narrow face, with silver hair and amber eyes. She wears fine raiment and jewelry.
Smon: The other is short and very overweight, with greying curly red hair and blue eyes. She wears modest garments.
Smon: Why +7 jorian, Bill asks?
Smon: +3 prof +3 cha?
joriandrake: +3 proficiency +4 cha
Smon: ok, I thought was still 16?
joriandrake: Prisha, noticing the ladies assumes them to be wealthy merchants or nobles and as such smiles at them with a little courtsy
joriandrake: ooc: WIS is 16, CHA is 18
Smon: >>smiles brightly with a small bow at them "Greetings, may you all find happiness and good health"<< The women give Prisha rather tight smiles in return.
Smon: ok thx
joriandrake: ooc: has to look/have aura of someone who led a cult and such
Smon: agreed
joriandrake: ooc: so for roleplay reason didn't increase the WIS instead picked CHA
Smon: The buxom blonde barmaid leads Prisha & co upstairs to a clean and well appointed room. "I'm Euma, here to serve my ladies - you need anything just ask!" she smiles.
Smon: Downstairs the merchant women are discussing something in lowered voices.
Smon: NS makes out their names are Marget & Igwa,
Smon: something about a lost treasure in the swamps west of town.
joriandrake: "Thank you, we don't need anything right now Euma. If you wish to talk to us later I would be delighted. YOu are likely to know this town well and answer some of our questions with great knowledge. First we get ready and go down for a meal though."
joriandrake: Prisha whispers then to mealia "Can you hear what they talk about?"
joriandrake: and tries herself to hear a bit of it
Smon: Igwa: "But Marget, who can I trust to recover the treasure? This town is a hive of villainy!"
Smon: GM: Prisha & co freshen up then come downstairs for their dinner.
Smon: Euma brings them plates of stew & turnip, with wine.
joriandrake: We sit near the two (Nightshadow+ ?) if allowed
Smon: A few more local tradesmen have come in, and the Bard starts strumming a tune about brave Lord Bronze & Prince Sandor awakening the dragon, Dyson Logos.
joriandrake: "May we join you?"
DESTROYERBILL: okay
Smon: Delanie: "Prince Sandor! We met him! He's a king now!"
Smon: Delanie beams in delight.
DESTROYERBILL: why is he a king?
Smon: The four ladies sit with the three men at a now crowded table.
joriandrake: "Psst Delanie, you shouldn't speak so loudly about our friends" Prisha answers but does so to not speak tooo quietly
Smon: Delanie: "Hakeem has made him King of Carch..." she trails off at Prisha's warning.
DESTROYERBILL: come on tell me why
DESTROYERBILL: finnesh it
Smon: Mealia looks at Delanie and rolls her eyes.
Smon: Delanie looks at NS and gulps, glancing at Prisha. "Um..."
joriandrake: "We don't know anyone here yet Delanie, and we need to know who could be helpful and trustful, anyone could be a villain as we're not locals to know"
joriandrake: then smiles at the girls
Smon: GM: Is Prisha whispering that?
joriandrake: ((obviously meant for others rather))
joriandrake: nope
joriandrake: Doesn't shout it however
Smon: GM: With his Passive Per of 18, NS can certainly hear Prisha's words.
Smon: One of the big Altanians grins lustily at Delanie. "You can trust US, babe!"
Smon: "I'm Ironfist, that one's Ironhead, and our boss is the Man in Black... We're right good sorts!"
Smon: Ironhead drinks a flagon of mead.
joriandrake: Then she turns to Nightshadow. "Sorry, we just discussed whom we met on our journeys. We're here to discuss the possibiliy to help the locals and open a temple of healing and love. We heard a lot of ill happened recently and might use some divine aid."
DESTROYERBILL: im night shadow
Smon: Ironfist nods: "Aye, Carchimish is a bit of a dump."
DESTROYERBILL: i can help you get a temple if you help me dear just tell me what you talkin about
joriandrake: Prisha also smiles and nods a bit at the words of Ironfist then introduces herself to NS: "I'M Prisha, a Priestess of Meroya. I'm from Popolva."
Smon: NS has heard of Popolva, the great capital city of Karak.
joriandrake: "it's quite the distance from here, so many never heard of it."
Smon: Rado d'Sewer the innkeep comes over, nose twitching slightly. "Everything good, ladies and gentlemen? Can I get you anything?"
DESTROYERBILL: your a were rat
DESTROYERBILL: i whispe
joriandrake: Prisha takes a bite to taste, and answers more or les honestly, saying it's a bit better than actually it is
DESTROYERBILL: r
Smon: NS sees the nose and the mystery he's been researching is solved!
joriandrake: Then blinks at the comment of NS.
Smon: Rado pales. "You are mistaken, sir! I am no rat!"
Smon: He takes a step back.
DESTROYERBILL: i know your little secret
joriandrake: "The Ratatouille is superb"
DESTROYERBILL: i wont tell if you give me somthing
Smon: "No... no. I swear it!"
DESTROYERBILL: i know it to be true dont worry
Smon: Rado looks very pale. "We should speak in private."
DESTROYERBILL: im a old freind of your mother
joriandrake: Prisha comments innocently
Smon: Rado leans heavily on a chair back, looking faint.
Smon: He staggers towards a back room, beckoning NS to follow.
joriandrake: She then smiles at the man "Let us finish the meal, it will be for free, and we all go to our room to talk"
DESTROYERBILL: ill come along
joriandrake: She raises an eyebrow as a question to NS if it would be fine with him, her suggestion
Smon: GM: NS joins Rado in the back store room.
DESTROYERBILL: no no dont come stay with my boys comfert them
Smon: Great wheels of cheese on the racks.
Smon: Ironhead: "Yeah, we could do with some comfortin'!"
joriandrake: "Well, shall we join them? We heard everything, after all." Then Prisha hears the answer and nods. She looks at the reaction of the other girls, and the patrons
Smon: Ironfist grins and pulls Delanie onto his lap - she gives a squeak but doesn't seem to off put.
Smon: NS looks about 50, ca 30 years older than young Rado.
Smon: OOC NS whispered to Rado
8:21pm  2018-1-31 Sandor Sunneson Has entered the room
Smon: DESTROYERBILL: your a were rat DESTROYERBILL: i whispe
joriandrake: As long she's fine with it Prisha won't mind but watches a bit worried. She whispers a few words then and casts a spell if it isn't obvious. (Eagle’s Splendor)

Sandor Sunneson: At mates house and he has a couple of work calls to do
Sandor Sunneson: ok
Smon: GM: NS gets Rado alone.
Sandor Sunneson: Hi Jorian
joriandrake: Prisha then talks to Rado, trying to get him friendly and open to questions, perhaps acting as guards/escort in town (wanting to cut down RP talk due to rushing for Sandor's benefit)
DESTROYERBILL: i rember seeing you as a young child you were a good kid
joriandrake: Prisha Pers with advantage

Smon: GM: Prisha is not in the back room
Smon: She can charm NS's henchmen if you like
joriandrake: I meant the guy might name be mixed up
joriandrake: ironfist
joriandrake: "You seem like a nice enough fellow, care to give us some directions, maybe some protection for me and my sisters? Delanie seems to like you too."
Smon: Ironfist: "Sure thing lady! We'll show you ALL a great time!" He guffaws, arm round Delanie. Ironhead follows his lead and scoops Esmalia up likewise.
Smon: Ironhead nods enthusiastically. "Protection is my middle name!"
Smon: OOC lemme do NS now
joriandrake: "Just be gentle with them, and listen to their requests." Prisha eyes the man but smiles
joriandrake: ooc ok
joriandrake: ooc have fun doing him
DESTROYERBILL: ther are two of them
joriandrake: ooc Sandor: you at a library now?
Smon: Rado looks puzzled at NS. "I've seen you around... You're renting that villa with the pretty merchant girl? Miss Goodkind?"

Smon: "You're from Carchimish? Before the Brigands?"
DESTROYERBILL: yes
Sandor Sunneson: ok
Sandor Sunneson: At mates house and he has a couple of work calls to do

Smon: "But I'm NOT a wererat! I swear it!"
Smon: "My mother, yes! And she infected the others... But not me! My blood is pure!"
Smon: His nose twitches.
Sandor Sunneson: OOC- No at mates house, he's taken the day off work to do a bit of a catch up, so he has a couple of business calls to take care of at the moment

DESTROYERBILL: cool
joriandrake: ooc: I mean Prisha is sorry o.O
DESTROYERBILL: no i think you were right the first time
Smon: Outside in the bar: "Just be gentle with them, and listen to their requests." Prisha eyes the man but smiles. << Ironhead & Ironfist shrug and nod, not paying too much attention to Prisha as they canoodle the girls.
Smon: GM: Rado and NS head back outside; NS & co's food is on the house.
Smon: NS sit back down with the others, his men now canoodling the two more buxom of the strange ladies.
joriandrake: Prisha checks the faces of her 'sisters', how they react.

DESTROYERBILL: ill help you find a lady dont worry
Smon: Finding Rado crestfallen, Prisha comforts him, but he doesn't tell her his secret.
joriandrake: Nightshadow offered help to Prisha earlier so she'll ask on how that could be done

Smon: Rado: "My Inn is a little pricy, but it's safe and clean."
joriandrake: Prisha will try to learn more of him (and get religion converted)

Smon: Nightshadow & Prisha you are in the town square crowd when a mighty Skandik prince in rich ermine robe and his honour guard of eight fierce amazons enter.
joriandrake: Prisha hearing of the whole 'amazon attack' goes out to see what happens and smiles as she notices Sandor
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will look around in anticipation
Smon: On the south side of the square the Royal Palace looms.
Smon: Looking around Sandor sees Prisha in the crowd.
joriandrake: Orisha tries to wave at Sandor on tiptoe
joriandrake: P*
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will acknowledge her with a nod
Smon: Beside Sandor, Griffon Knight Kalindra glares fiercely at the Carchimishi.

Smon: He coughs, eyeing the amazons.
Smon: "By King Koloth's com... by his command, all females who enter the Palace must disrobe. Fully."
Sandor Sunneson: He will shake him by the hand, hello Sir Baltek, the Ladies will be fine, it is a tense situation for you both. Nothing untoward is going to happen,
Smon: Kalindra glares at Baltek.
joriandrake: ooc: whenever the time seems right Prisha will seek out Sandor to ask how things fare and why he's here
Smon: Behind her a blonde amazon, Kaijara, glares even more fiercely. Not that they are wearing much to start with...
Smon: Baltek: "If your amazons need lodging, that inn across the square is good."
Sandor Sunneson: Ladies, please disrobe,
DESTROYERBILL: i shout your not in the palace yet
Smon: The amazons nod and remove their loincloths, any halter tops, and boots before the cheering crowd.
Sandor Sunneson: I look forward to meeting Koloth Baltek
Smon: But keep their swords & weapon belts.
Smon: Baltek nods. "You are all welcome. Please come in."
Sandor Sunneson: We will follow Baltek in
DESTROYERBILL: ill sneak behind
Smon: GM: Baltek escorts Sandor & his guard into the expansive palace, out of sight of the crowd who begin to disperse.
Smon: Roll Stealth DC 20 NS
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+11 and gets: 1, (+11) = 12
DESTROYERBILL: i flee
Smon: Two guards bar NS's way, halberds raised.
Smon: Prisha sees NS's ineffectual stealth effort.
DESTROYERBILL: ill show 10 gp to each of them
Smon: So do quite a few in the crowd, who laugh.
Smon: They laugh more.
joriandrake: Prisha gets closer and whispers "What exactly are you trying to do?"
Smon: Guard: "Eager to see more of those amazons eh friend?!"
Sandor Sunneson: he will allow Prisha to join his party
Smon: They chuckle good naturedly.
Smon: Sandor pauses & waves Prisha in?
joriandrake: She nods at Sandor when nearby
Sandor Sunneson: yes
Smon: NS could follow Prisha in as 'with her'?
Sandor Sunneson: sure
Smon: NS roll Deception DC 12
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+11 and gets: 18, (+11) = 29
joriandrake: as everyone is occupied with NS Prisha hugs Sandor -if allowed- as when they last time parted ways
joriandrake: "Glad to see you well."
Smon: NS gets in this time on Prisha's coat tails.
Sandor Sunneson: Good to see you Prisha, all will become clear soon enough
Smon: The young priestess hugs Sandor in the shadows of the gatehouse.
DESTROYERBILL: i say to the guards whos laughfing now
DESTROYERBILL: ha
joriandrake: She nods "Yes, right now a lot of things seem ... unclear"
Smon: "We didn't know you were with the Prince, sir. Sorry."
DESTROYERBILL: yeah think before you act
Sandor Sunneson: A nice city you have hear Baltek
Smon: LOL
joriandrake: Prisha takes a glimpse at NS but says nothing, sure that if this is not to the wish of Sandor he wil lact anyway.
Sandor Sunneson: he will make conversation with the old warrior
Sandor Sunneson: as they walk in
Smon: NIghtshadow is a stout dignified older fellow all in black.
Smon: GM: The guards escort you all through the Palace to the Great Hall, where a couple dozen courtiers are before twin raised thrones.
Smon: One throne is occupied, an old man, crowned, looks down at you.
Smon: Almost all in the hall are armed warriors, veterans.
Smon: One near the throne is a sturdy dwarf.
Smon: King Koloth looks frail, but his eyes still gleam brightly.
Sandor Sunneson: Good Day Koloth, he will bow in front of him
joriandrake: If the commotion still goes on Prisha whispers Sandor "We didn't have the time yet to ask por the permission to build a temple, I assume you're being here with an escort isn't the best situation. Can I help you somehow?"
joriandrake: Prisha also bows
joriandrake: ((ooc typed slowly sorry))
Smon: There are three women in the hall - two naked blondes among the courtiers (Summatta & Rosaria?) and a strange exotic looking slave girl with fey eyes at the foot of Koloth's throne.
DESTROYERBILL: i bow and fall over on purpose
Smon: The slave girl's eyes seem to bore into your soul...
Sandor Sunneson: You know why I am here, this area has seen much trouble with the fighting against the Dark Sun, but hopefully better times are ahead for everyone
joriandrake: ooc: Does Prisha recognize her origin, considering theirs are somewhat close?
Smon: With a slight shock Prisha sees the slave girl is of Minkai, a far island beyond even Popolva.
Smon: (ie Japan analogue)
Smon: ooc hold on
joriandrake: ((yep íI know, I almsot made a character from there))
joriandrake: Prisha tries to hide her reaction, but makes a small clumsy attempt to bow in 'japanese' form towards the girl
joriandrake: ((as part of the actual bow to the 'king'))
Smon: Prisha roll CHA
Smon: NS falls over
joriandrake rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 15, (+4) = 19
Smon: The courtiers guffaw. "Look at that fool!"
DESTROYERBILL: i try to get back up but slip
Smon: The Minkai girl acknowledges Prisha's bow, nods in return and gives a ghostly smile.
joriandrake: (if this is deception im proficient)
Smon: "Ha ha ha!"
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will focus on talking to the King
joriandrake: Prisha helps NS up
Smon: King Koloth laughs at the sight of NS the Fool.
DESTROYERBILL: i get back up then fall backwards
joriandrake: and says "YOu just have to bow a little bit, that was too much"
Smon: Koloth: "Ha ha ha"
Smon: He claps.
Smon: Turns to Sandor. "You're here to deal with our Orc problem?"
DESTROYERBILL: i then get up and do a proper bow
joriandrake: ooc. shall I do an Insight roll or is the act too obvious?
Smon: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgMreReeMP9z1I6wAVyxMtH4Edu-7cVBkNObkzG1__RWm1ncePAjbfSHe43d_isWjWwN13cHlw1ZDZacX0qmF2u8hp6yV0T3GqJ16F8-m4dgKJBCYJoPwvMpaTSltXTaqcKtFeobLYkaY/s320/Koloth.png
Smon: It's a pretty obvious fools' act.
Smon: Koloth grins: "Fool! I like you! There's little enough mirth in these parts!"
Sandor Sunneson: And others too, Hakeem has requested that I become the Ruler of this town
Smon: "Summatta! Bring wine for our guests!"
DESTROYERBILL: i then do a back flip
joriandrake: Prisha instead of watching the 'King' looks more closely at the slave girls
Sandor Sunneson: Yes, the orc problem is on our list to resolve
Smon: The older of the two glamorous blondes serves you all wine on a golden platter.
Smon: Koloth listens to Sandor. "Ruler? Heh. You're not as funny as that other Fool!"
joriandrake: ooc: at the moment of given chance Prisha casts the same spell on Sandor, giving him Charisma roll advantage
Smon: The blonde women are clearly aristocrats, and don't seem too happy at being naked and treated as servants.
Sandor Sunneson: Well if I am given a chance, I would hope you get to know me for who I am.
Smon: Koloth & the crowd applaud NS's backflip.
Smon: OOC Bill points out Prisha would have had to disrobe too
DESTROYERBILL: i then do a spin over sandors head
joriandrake: ooc: um, not yet
Sandor Sunneson: After the meal can we talk in private Sir, seems a bit chaotic in here
Smon: GM: Koloth notices Prisha. "You! Those are clothes! Off! NOw!"
Smon: He waves his hand at Prisha in annoyance.
Smon: Then glares at Sandor. "Do you have a letter from Hakeem? Anything?"
joriandrake: Prosha for a short moment glares but almsot right away she smiles and stands up slowly undressing and keeping her disgust of the man back
joriandrake: Prisha* 8argh typos)
Sandor Sunneson: I give you my word Sire, I fought alongside him in the recent campaign against the dark sun,
Smon: Kololth watches with interest as the young priestess disrobes.
joriandrake: lPrisha tries to do it in a very alluring way
joriandrake: as someone whi actually has control of the situation
joriandrake: who*
Smon: "Yes, yes, Sandor! Well I'm afraid I'm hardly going to hand over my - our - kingdom just like that... My she's a pretty one!"
Sandor Sunneson: I have the Amazon guards with me, you know that Hakeems's sister rules from Highhaven
Smon: Prisha roll CHA+Prof
joriandrake: ((this is her first time to actually undress before anyone else than her ex-puppet master and servants))
joriandrake rolls 20d7 and gets: 1, 3, 6, 3, 4, 3, 6, 1, 5, 3, 5, 3, 1, 2, 6, 1, 4, 2, 5, 4 = 68
joriandrake: (ignore)
joriandrake rolls 1d20+7 and gets: 12, (+7) = 19
Sandor Sunneson: I don't expect you to Sir,
Smon: Prisha does manage to look confident and alluring. The crowd gasp.
Smon: Sandor roll CHA+Prof
Sandor Sunneson rolls 1d20 and gets: 10,
Sandor Sunneson: +5=15
Smon: brb wine
joriandrake: "Love is to be shared, and one should be proud of their body." She says with a bit of cocky smile
Smon: "I'll say!"
Smon: says Koloth, leering.
Smon: With a struggle, the old king turns to Sandor.
Smon: "Well, I suppose we'll have to see what the Queen says about all this! Perhaps she'll consent to marry you - if you're very very good..."
DESTROYERBILL: i shout poison poison for sale just kidding
Sandor Sunneson: Sandor will go beside the king, making it easy for him
Smon: "Better than that Rey blighter..."
Smon: The dwarf steps in front of Sandor as he approaches the throne.
Sandor Sunneson: I only heard of him in lore you're Majesty
Smon: https://img00.deviantart.net/b2de/i/2009/273/c/8/old_warrior_by_master_berling.jpg
Smon: "A great lover, they say... Pity he loved his doxy more than my daughter!"
Sandor Sunneson: I met him briefly prior to his passing
Smon: Kololth glares at Sandor. "You'd not do that, would you, Prince Sandor?"
Sandor Sunneson: That would be an act of tragedy, I have no doxy anyway your Majesty
Smon: Koloth looks past Sandor. "The Fool and the Priestess are guests in my Hall! Baltek, have quarters made ready for them!"
Smon: Sir Baltek nods, eyeing Prisha's rump appreciatively.
DESTROYERBILL: i already have a place with a lady waiting for me sorry
Sandor Sunneson: He will then speak to the dwarf, greetings dwarven warrior, good to meet you
Smon: Koloth turns back to Sandor. "Hm. Well, I give you permission to court my daughter, I suppose. But her choice is her own! I am no tyrant!"
joriandrake: Prisha bows slightly at the king. "As you wish" Not wanting to anger him.
Smon: The Hall chuckles at Koloth's claim of non-tyranny.
Smon: Koloth smile-leers at Prisha. "I'll see you later."
Sandor Sunneson: You have ruled for years I have heard and are well respected by your people I hear, I aim to follow that ;ead
DESTROYERBILL: i shout in draconic poison for sale meet me in the ally next to the in run by rado come if your intrested
Smon: The dwarf looks up at Sandor and grunts. "Oghrim is me name. Weaponmaster Oghrim."
joriandrake: She nods. "We will have some things to discuss, I agree." She says confidently (as far she can be)
joriandrake: ((lol Bill))
Sandor Sunneson: Good to meet you, nice axe you have there
Smon: The crowd laugh at NS's jibber-jabber. All except the Minkai girl, who seems to know what NS is saying in the dragon tongue.
Sandor Sunneson: Would be good if you could assist me in dealing with the orcs
Smon: Oghrim pats his axe.
Smon: OOC how long you got Fergus?
DESTROYERBILL: how did you end up like that lady (in draconic0
Smon: NS calls out in dragon-speech.
Smon: He hears words in his head!
joriandrake: Prisha (if still in ear-distance) acts as if not understanding
Smon: ~I am Juko Inaba, from Minkai. I was captured by slavers and brought here, far from the Dragon Isle.~
Sandor Sunneson: about 5 minutes
Smon: Prisha roll Insight WIS+Prof
DESTROYERBILL: what dragon isle
Smon: "Minkai is the Dragon Isle."
Smon: (she ESP'd)
joriandrake rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 19, (+6) = 25
Smon: Prisha can tell the girl is communicating telepathically with NS.
Smon: Her strange eyes are locked on him.
joriandrake: Prisha can't do it but 'thinks' of wishing to talk to her later as she is led to her 'room'
DESTROYERBILL: so your telapathic ayh
Smon: GM: King Koloth has the two blonde aristos serve more wine and sweetmeats.
Smon: "Yes"
Sandor Sunneson: There are also other monsters in the area too I believe
Smon: ~I can read minds~
DESTROYERBILL: okay does kingy know
Smon: Koloth nods. "Hm. Your amazons will need to sleep with the guards, or in the stables. But we'll have a proper guest room for our Prince Sandor."
Smon: ~Yes he knows. He ask me what people think after meetings~
Sandor Sunneson: I'll sign off Simon, chat soon, will read the thread on the blog, Sandor will pay for the amazons to sleep in the pub
Smon: OK I am stopping there tonight
DESTROYERBILL: oh okay cool
Smon: I'll post log
joriandrake: ok, was nice, thanks and bye Dergus
Sandor Sunneson: Thanks for that, sorry for interrupting your session but thanks for integrarting Simon
joriandrake: F
joriandrake: damn lack of coffee
Sandor Sunneson: Chat sson, ciao Bill, Jorian and Si
joriandrake: When prisha gets to her room she pushes her face into the blanket and shrieks a bit to get the stress and anxiety out
joriandrake: Relived to be out of the room with so many strangers watching her, but also somewhat thrilled by it

CSWE - Oona & Batta

Oona, Tharbrian Barbarian of the Clan MacGlaive 
Class: Barbarian
Level: 2
STR 18 (+4) DEX 14 (+2) CON 14 (+2) INT 7 (-2) WIS 12 (+1) CHA 15 (+2)
AC: 14 (10+2 CON +2 DEX)
HP: 23 (5+9/Level)
Rolls (at +1 each) 18 7 15 14 14 12
Sex: Female
Age: 17
Race: Human Tharbrian (+2 to Ride checks)
Appearance: 5'11" tall, strongly muscled and well proportioned, good looking with shaggy blonde hair to shoulder, typically held back from her eyes by leather band. Bright blue eyes, her naturally fair and ruddy-cheeked Tharbrian complexion is bronzed by long hours toiling in the fields under the hot Viridian sun.
Background: Born on the Tharbrian Plains east of Viridistan, Oona was said to be blessed at birth by the war goddess Morrigun with preternatural strength. She showed little aptitude for formal education at the feet of the clan Druids, but regularly beat much larger boys in wrestling and quarterstaff-battle. She was a child of 12 when her clan was attacked by a larger rival Tharbrian clan, in league with the soldiers of the hated Viridian Empire. She was captured, taken by Viridian slavers and sold in the slave pits of Viridistan, City State of the World Emperor. She grew to womanhood as a farm worker; those who would trouble her learned to fear her fierce temper and her hard fists. When she was 14, the slave Gablak Orcblood was found dead in a drainage ditch with broken neck - rumour has it he had tried to ravish the crazy Tharbrian girl... Oona said nothing. Though naturally of wild and carefree disposition, like her patron goddess Morrigun, in the shackles of bondage she grew dour and brooding, biding her time until some opportunity came to break free, and exact her revenge...
Barbarian SA: unarmoured defence, Rage 2/LR: rage damage +2, half damage B/P/S, advtg STR checks/saves.
Reckless Attack Starting at 2nd level, you can throw aside all concern for defense to attack with fierce desperation. When you make your first attack on your turn, you can decide to attack recklessly. Doing so gives you advantage on melee weapon attack rolls using Strength during this turn, but attack rolls against you have advantage until your next turn. Danger Sense At 2nd level, you gain an uncanny sense of when things nearby aren’t as they should be, giving you an edge when you dodge away from danger. You have advantage on Dexterity saving throws against effects that you can see, such as traps and spells. To gain this benefit, you can’t be blinded, deafened, or incapacitated.
Spear Attack, Raging: ATT +6 dam 1d8+6 (two handed)
Unarmed Attack, Raging: ATT +6 (+2 Prof +4 STR) Damage: 7 (1+4 STR+2 Rage)
Notes: The MacGlaive Clan favoured weapon is of course the Glaive, a 10' long pointy/slashy bit on the end of a staff. It has d10 damage, Reach (10'), and the MacGlaive are famous Battle-Dancers, darting in to strike the enemy line then leaping away before the enemy can riposte (strike from 10' then move, no opportunity attack) 






Batta, Kobold Rogue-2
PB+2
STR 11 (0) DEX 19 (+4) CON 14 (+2) INT 12 (+1) WIS 12 (+1) CHA 15 (+2)
Hit Points: 17 (3+7/Level)
Rogue SA: Sneak Attack +1d6, Expertise, Thieves' Cant. Cunning Action.
Kobold SA: Pack Tactics (advtg vs target w adjacent ally), Sunlight Sensitivity (disad in sunlight), Small size, darkvision 60', Speaks Common & Draconic, Grovel Cower & Beg (1/SR: action to cower/distract, until eont kobold allies have advantage to hit enemies within 10' that can see the kobold)

Background by Bill: A kobold clan was wiped out by evil Viridian sorcerers, the eggs taken and hatched. The kobolds were raised to hunt the great green Viridian bunny-rabbits that plague the carrot crops of the Emperor's fields. They work in teams - #1 surface hide/ambush, #2 trap-setting, #3 burrow hunting. This kobold, Batta, is in team #3, and has a relationship with another kobold in the team, his girlfriend Repa. They keep rabbit numbers down and bring a lot of meat for the masters' stewpot, to the extent that the farmers let them eat 1/4 of the bunnies they catch, while the other farm slaves dine on gruel. Consequently the Viridian slave kobolds are well fed, sleek and healthy. They do not seek to wipe out the rabbits, rather keep their numbers under control and ensure a regular source of meat.
Sometimes the kobolds with the best noses are taken to hunt for truffles in the Elsenwood.

appearance: glossy black scales, green belly.

Cunning Action Starting at 2nd level, your quick thinking and agility allow you to move and act quickly. You can take a bonus action on each of your turns in combat. This action can be used only to take the Dash, Disengage, or Hide action.

Oona & Friends #2, Viridistan 6/9/47 (300 XP)


Chris' Review of Session 2 (30th January 2018)

Players and their characters.

Chris Bourne playing Alkaia
Ken Rothstein and Xandor
Don Donald Fairfield with Earendil
Bill Newman with Batta the Kobold
Simon Newman and Oona
Anthony Terry introducing Belgarion the Bard.

The Action.
Belgarion the Bard has been with the Mycretians and decided to stay and adventure with the party.
After further questioning of Jerech and with help from Earendil they pieced together that the tomb was that of Prince Ashan the Immortal, known as The Ironspear.
Off they trot and sure enough in the sandstone cliffs just south of the wall they find it.
Scrambling up, Batta checks around for traps then Alkaia flexed her mighty muscles and broached the aincient entrance. Once inside they sealed it shut once more.
They set off north down marble steps, the Light of Mitra illuminating their path. Deep they delved until a northbound corridor decorated with plaster images of ancient warriors led them deeper into the tomb.
Another foul construct from eons past was set loose. Only with great effort was it overcome. Magical frost from Xandor, Holy fire from Earendil and much beating with big sticks saw it battered but it was Belgarion with a suave thrust of the sword which finished the creature.
After much searching of the empty tomb it was Oona who discovered the cracked plasterwork and secret door in the north wall. And the treasure room beyond!
Here we leave our heroes, a little after 3PM on their first day of freedom, until next week.

Smon: Evening Chris
chris107: Evening Simon
Smon: I just discovered a bunch of posts on CSWE thread I'd missed & read them
Smon: Also bookmarked your blog so I can find it again!
chris107: Thanks
Smon: You could put link in your DF sig for the benefit of those less diligent than I
chris107: The Blog has been updated. Hopefully after your conversations with Jerech tonight there will be tons more to add.
Smon: Yup I see how you've added stuff to the first post.
chris107: I don't know how to do that I'm afraid.
Smon: "User Control Panel" top right of Forum screen
chris107: Each chapter (this is Midwall) will hoipefully build into a ready reference sheet.
Smon: Then "Profile" on left
Smon: Then "edit signature" - for me link is https://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/ucp.php?i=profile&mode=signature
chris107: Ah, got it. Thanks
Smon: 
Smon: Oona is a bit put out that Harlgrimm ignored her last session - she even smiled at him, too!
Smon: Like he doesn't like his ladies covered in blood and brains... or he doesn't like ladies... or he doesn't like Oona (surely not!)
chris107: I'm afraid romance has to be worked at here. No dice rolling
chris107: Hmmmmm my sig link is not working. I'll have to get Kyle to look at it when I can prize him off his new computer game.
chris107: I'll go try again.
7:23pm  2018-1-30 Drfuzzylogic Has entered the room
Drfuzzylogic: Good evening gents
chris107: Hi Ants
Smon: Oona said "hello friend", eyes him up, and >>Smon: She turns to the big Tharbrian, pushing bloody blonde hair from her eyes. "You fought well. I don't think I know your name?" (tag chris)<< yet still no response!
Smon: Hello Dr
chris107: 2 mins just sorting a link out.
chris107: He had his hands full
chris107: Or was playing hard to get!
Smon: GM had his hands full!
Smon: Should be slightly easier tonight!
Drfuzzylogic: Chris in 5th how does one work out their passive perception?
Smon: 10 + bonus
Drfuzzylogic: Is it wis + proficiency + 10?
Smon: yes
chris107: 10+ wisdom bonus + prof bonus if it's one of your class skills
Smon: Fuzzy you were away session 1?
chris107: Don't forget you have ALL your classes skills as proficient.
Drfuzzylogic: I was  I havent got allot on atm and totally forgot it was a tuesday
Drfuzzylogic: till about 11 when i looked at the clock and was like o fuck its tuesday ;/
chris107: These things happen.
Drfuzzylogic: Set an alarm this week to be sure lol :/
Smon: I think I still have your bardic inspiration die?
Smon: Never used it
Smon: Been a couple hours in-game I think
Drfuzzylogic: Then you would use, as far as im aware it lasts untill use or i give it to someone else (ill check this now)
Drfuzzylogic: would yes*
chris107: Just a reminder, Ants. I don't look at your character sheets. If you want to do something; cast a spell, attack etc. I expect you guys to have the details and bonuses to hand. I trust you all
Drfuzzylogic: Risky business trusting me chris
Smon: Checked - it lasts 10 minutes looks like https://open5e.com/classes/bard.html
chris107: hehe
Drfuzzylogic: But i will keep it in mind and work it out now. Ill jot down some spell details
chris107: Coolio, thank you.
chris107: I'll handle the game end as best I can. But you guys know your characters better than I ever could or have the time for during a game.
Smon: >> I expect you guys to have the details and bonuses to hand. I trust you all << Can I say that's insane as it's only 07:29?
chris107: hehe
Drfuzzylogic: You are indeed right smon 10 mins only sadly  it seems i have no limit to how often i can do it tho
Drfuzzylogic: which is nice
Smon: 7:30pm - I bow to the God Emperor's Infinite Wisdom.
chris107: I just think it will speed the game up no end if everyone has their own character sheets to hand and know what they can do. I don't have time to do it X6
Smon: Half the players only know 1e, most of the others assume it's like 3e...
chris107: Sometimes folks will get it wrong. Sometimes I will. But it will all come out in the wash
chris107: The main thing is to keep it flowing and to keep it fun.
Drfuzzylogic: I am not sure on the details 5E wise for things like charm person but will open up a players handbook now and have all the basic stuf like range jotted down
chris107: That would be brilliant! Thanks Ants.
Smon: GMing I find I spend tons of time checking the rule book - I tried trusting Don on spells & felt bady burned. But maybe your lot will shape up.
chris107: Also this way. As characters advance they will be updating their own stuff and learning how to use it.

Drfuzzylogic: Howdie Don
genghisdon: good to "see" you Anthony, happy new year
Smon: Bill is logging in/booting up on his old 2004 PC

genghisdon: uh oh!
chris107: Lost all my stored images.
Smon: Bill's had to restart too
chris107: But have rescued the ones I need for early on (I think)
genghisdon: i probably should start preparing, my machine is getting long in the tooth
genghisdon: and I've truly massive amounts of un-backed up stuff at present
genghisdon: soon
Drfuzzylogic: I brought a new pc around the time we were playing on thursdays :> What put me over the edge was losing allot of my notes of the game mid writting one day  it can be a nightmare
chris107: Tried getting all 21st Century and storing all the images I need for during the game. Setting them up with Gyazo for pulling up.
chris107: failed miserably
7:35pm  2018-1-30 DESTROYERBILL Has entered the room
DESTROYERBILL: hello
chris107: Evening Bill
genghisdon: hi bill
Smon: Bardic Inspiration "You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once)."
genghisdon: keep at it chris, it will work out in time
Smon: "You regain any expended uses when you finish a long rest."
chris107: Ants, that's a shame. I don't think I ever rolled a better character than in your game.
7:36pm  2018-1-30 Bochi Has entered the room
Drfuzzylogic: Thanks smon. Any help with this stuf is greatly appreciated.

genghisdon: He's still here on DF, no?
chris107: Evening Bochi
genghisdon: hi Bochi
Drfuzzylogic: And indeed chris the golden knight was indeed quite mighty and his details are still in the thread
chris107: @ Don, he is.

genghisdon: since u are here Dr Fuzzy, can I (or you) transfer your character to here?
genghisdon: https://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=78825&start=60
genghisdon: I've moved everyone elses already
Drfuzzylogic: Sure go for it
chris107: Okay guys. We can say that Belgarion was for some reason tagging along with Jorech and his band of Mycretians.
genghisdon: beter if you do, as you'll want to at some point to be able to modify it
Smon: >>Tried getting all 21st Century and storing all the images I need for during the game.<< I just upload or c/p mine to Blogspot pre-game
chris107: The same band you are now sitting down, breaking bread with. As Jerech gives you dire warnings of pursuit.
genghisdon: Begarion is you, Ants?
Drfuzzylogic: Yes
Smon: That rough looking amazon pic today required a screen capture/edit/upload though!
chris107: Prepare for screen wall of text drop.
chris107: Jerech turns out to be an enthusiastic and knowledgeable fellow. It seems that he and his band are to spread the message of Mycr throughout the land even if this means they will without doubt be eventually captured and crucified by empire forces. In between healing you with Mycr’s magic and extolling the virtues of ‘The One True God’ you learn the following from him: The Great Wall has indeed been built most high and the Emperor’s soldiers march along it day and night. Trying to climb over it to the relative safety of the north could prove difficult. The Aelsinar elves rule the great Elsenwood and suffer Viridians to not disturb even a single leaf upon the ground; the only safe way through is on the ancient Imperial Roads, though Shah Satyrbis of Effernath is said to seek a greater understanding with the elves. But waiting here would be fatal! You say one of the guards escaped? Why I’m amazed the hounds are not upon you already. Jerech knows a better place for you to hide out. A place taboo to the green skinned devils. A tomb, a haunted place they say and sacred to them. You would be safe there while you made better plans at least. (He sketches you a map showing the location near the top of the S in Serf, Hex 3526). He warns that Farzad, far-bin Abtin. Jenaab of Midwall is a wicked and capable man who will waste no time hunting down renegade slaves and the fate they should expect would be worse than that even he and his fellows have to look forward to.
genghisdon: (no guards DID escape, did they?)
Smon: 1

genghisdon: (i recall that not, unless it was a second kobold)
chris107: DM: We will start here. Ken can catch us up if he arrives.
genghisdon: (ah well)
chris107: @ Don. One did. That's why I wrote one escaped
Smon: Oona: "Jerech, would there be anything in this cursed tomb you'd like us to fetch while we're at it?"
chris107: (I keep notes of that sort of stuff)
genghisdon: "not all of us with lovely green tinged skins are devils, I'll remind you"
Smon: Farzad, Jered of Midwall, bad guy - https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGvyp8zg_oKB3JcKHAxA8dPYK3c4C858z1ZIBISy-_tR7I379C69xD1dXP-dx_BabJi0YmBfqlHSpSOv9EBi4wSsXz77-yHAHLSrBZbUbqW2VYTHidy6j0sO1ilqsiBlqq7fXmbQLKHn0/s1600/thumbnail_IMG_3359.jpg
genghisdon: can i roll a check on this tomb, if my people hold it sacred?
Bochi: Nice pecs though.
chris107: Jerech looks at Earendil. "Peace brother. We are all one in the sight of Mycr. A turn of phrase only."
genghisdon: ah, 300's Darius or Xerxes, eh?
chris107: You can Don. DC12 int+prof with advantage due to your background
chris107: 20+ gives extra info
genghisdon: history or religion or arcana (or all 3?)
Bochi: "Shieldmaidens do not skulk in tombs" says Alkaia. "But the weaker among us may need its protection. I will put aside my pride and help."
chris107: History
genghisdon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 19, (+5) = 24
genghisdon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 1, (+5) = 6
chris107: DC12+ int+prof
chris107: Thanks Don
chris107: first @ Una "I have never been there, Sister. I only know of it."
Drfuzzylogic: "very noble of you lady" says belgarion "I for one will feel much safer with such a fine shield maiden to protect us"
genghisdon: (about as good as possible, yay!)
Smon: Batta PC sheet - https://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=78815&p=1899507#p1899683
genghisdon: I tell the others what I heard of this tomb...
genghisdon: i did one for bill here, plus a pic, if he likes it
genghisdon: https://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=78825&start=30
chris107: Earendil has of course heard about the tomb. Sacred it is said to Prince Ashan the Immortal. Known as 'The Iron Spear'. It is said his spear was made from the metal of a falling star.
genghisdon: "still not insterested, spear maidens?"
Bochi: "Star-iron!"
Bochi: "That is the most desirable of metals for forging weapons..."
chris107: "So it is said lady."
Bochi: Alkaia seems much more interested now.
genghisdon: anythign else I can recall of the prince, his spear, or his tomb?
chris107:
chris107: That was including the additional information from rolling high, Don.
genghisdon: ok
genghisdon: how long ago did he live?
genghisdon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 13, (+5) = 18
chris107: It is taboo in Veridian culture to dessicrate the graves of the great.
chris107: In antiquity, some 3000 years ago.
genghisdon: lol, now it is me that has interest in going
genghisdon: did "healing" take me from 6 hp to 9?
chris107: @ everyone and Don. I don't know. I don't keep track of your character sheets.
Smon: Oona shrugs. "Well, I like spears... "
genghisdon: ok, do these people heal us then?
chris107: @ All. You have compleated your short rests.
Smon: Jerech & co healed us all to full AIR
chris107: They healed everyone to full.
genghisdon: ok
genghisdon: thnx
chris107 rolls 1d6 and gets: 3,
DESTROYERBILL: hey sweetie dear if we find dat spear you aint weilding it we sellin it probs worth big coin with a rair metal like dat
chris107: Jerech "Time is moving on. The Emperor's hounds will be out soon. Can I help you further in any way?"
Smon: Oona looks to Alkaia the Amazon, who seems to have her head on right. "If you want to check out this tomb, I'm with you."
Smon: Oona looks down at the kobold. "Don't call me sweetie."
Drfuzzylogic: "If for no reason than the veridians would be displeased this tomb gets my vote, who knows maybe finding this spear could help us get past the wall. I would imagine if its important we might have a barging chip to stay alive longer than tomorrow"
genghisdon: Thanks to you, followers of Myrcir, as a Mitran priest, know I would ahappily return the favor"
DESTROYERBILL: ill call you that all i want sweetie
Bochi: Alkaia says "I think we must, Oona. If only to ensure that if it has to be desecrated, it is done in a respectful way."
Smon: Oona sticks her tongue out at Batta the kobold.
chris107: "Your demon is known to us wise one. Only Mycr can bring you true peace however."
genghisdon: can i make one last check Chris, to see if legend paints this prince as a typical villain of my people, or was he actually a decent sort?
genghisdon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 9, (+5) = 14
genghisdon: "demon?"
chris107: "Then if I can serve you no further. Go in peace with the blessings of the one true god and the friendship of Jerech of Tel-Qa."
genghisdon: "try to avoid getting crucified"
chris107: @ Don, this is lost in the mists of time.
Smon: Oona smiles at Alkaia. "Very good then. Let us respectfully desecrate this accursed tomb!"
DESTROYERBILL: the one true god is death
genghisdon: ok
Bochi: Alkaia thanks Jerech for the healing and the blessing and gives him a rabbit skin.
Drfuzzylogic: "Respectful pillaging, what a novle idea. I feel this is something i have to see. Should we proceed? The longer we delay the more likely that escaped guard comes back with some pretty angry slavers"
chris107: @ Don . Mycretians believe all other gods to be illusions or demons.
genghisdon: brb
genghisdon: (doesn't make me happier about it)
chris107: @ Alkaia. "Thank you sister. The litltle one did not give it's life in vain."
Bochi: Alkaia takes a rough bearing from the position of the sun and suggests we go "thataway".
Smon: Oona: "I hope your god gives you peace, Jerech... thanks for the healing."
chris107: DM: The children of Mycr go dancing off to the south east. Their tambourines clashing out a jaunty little rythm.
Smon: Oona will follow Alkaia over the plain
Drfuzzylogic: With his most dazzling smile belgarion proclaims "I would follow you any way young shieldmaiden" and proceeds in the indicated direction
chris107: They wave at you as they chant their songs.
Smon: Oona smirks behind the Bard's back at his outrageous flattery of the amazon.
chris107: You all set in a generaly northern direction, following the crude map you have been given.
Bochi: Alkaia sets a good pace. When she gets a chance she asks Oona: "Oona, is that Bard hitting on me? How do you tell? I have no experience of males."
chris107: It's about an 8 mile hike, 2 hours or so at a fair pace or you could jog (DC8 Con) and cover it at half the time.
chris107: (a failure of the DC 8 would indicate 1 level of exhaustion)
Drfuzzylogic: (Bochi that just made my day  I snorted my coke up my nose a bit laughing)
genghisdon rolls 1d20 and gets: 7,
chris107: (Hehe  )
Drfuzzylogic rolls 1d20+2 and gets: 7, (+2) = 9
genghisdon: sorry, have +1 for 12 ccvon
chris107: Cool, thanks Don.
Smon: Oona nods to Alkaia. "I believe so."
8:01pm  2018-1-30 KenTheConfused Has entered the room
chris107: Hiya Ken
KenTheConfused: hey. wasn't this game wednesday this week??

DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 10, (+4) = 14
DESTROYERBILL: con+prof
Smon: Oona: "Don't run, you'll only get tired."
Bochi: Alkaia colors. "I wish they wouldn't do that. Can't they wait to be captured?"
genghisdon: wednessday was wrote, but no
KenTheConfused rolls 1d20+1 and gets: 18, (+1) = 19
Bochi rolls 1d20+1 and gets: 10, (+1) = 11
genghisdon: simon?
Smon: Oona follows along.
DESTROYERBILL: he wants to do it in 2 hours
chris107: @ Ken, I posted both on the thread and facebook page that we were back for Tuesday. Sorry if you missed it.
genghisdon: (hi Ken, btw  )
Smon: >>It's about an 8 mile hike, 2 hours or so at a fair pace or you could jog (DC8 Con) and cover it at half the time.<<
Smon: Oona is happy with 2 hours
genghisdon: so we all get there an hours sooner...ok
chris107: Okay, have we all passed?
Smon: Oona's not running.
Drfuzzylogic: All but smon chris who is trailing behind  Wisely covering the rear!
chris107: Okay the rest of you jog ahead leaving the big Barbarian girl to saunter along at her own pace.
Bochi: Alkaia jogs up and down on the spot at the tomb and does some stretches.
Smon: Oona whistles softly to herself, twirling the little levy spear shaft.
chris107: Af ter an hour the front runners are moving up into the sandstone cliffs that head up towards the emperors great wall.
DESTROYERBILL: i jugle my daggers
Smon: "Beautiful day in Viridistan..."
chris107: They notice that all is very quiet as they leave the verdant fields behind.
DESTROYERBILL: im sleeping while i wait for the barb
chris107: They walk silently betwixt high, sheer cliffs when suddenly infront of them they see.
chris107: https://gyazo.com/b3b2a03531924fd0b551e7d99e3ef02e
DESTROYERBILL: brb
chris107: Meanwhile back on the plain.
chris107 rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
Bochi: This must be it, says Alkaia.
genghisdon: cool pic
Bochi: "I like the stairs. It makes it more defensible."
chris107: Oona thinks she may hear the sound of braying dogs some distance behind her.
Bochi: She trots up the steps and stands on the lip of the apron, staring out across the plains for Oona
KenTheConfused: who owns this tomb?
chris107: The plains have been lost to the twisting canyons that brought you here.
genghisdon: (forgot to add guidance +3 on all my checks thus far...'doh!)
genghisdon: " Prince Ashan the Immortal."
Bochi: Apparently he died.
chris107: @ Ken. The Mycretian with some help from Don's Veridian character knew the tomb belonged to an ancient Viridistani hero. Prince Ashan 'Iron Spear'
Smon: Oona breaks into a jog...
KenTheConfused: ok
Smon: Oona CON save
Smon: /roll d20+4
Smon rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 3, (+4) = 7
Smon: knew it!!!!
Smon: A sweaty Oona runs up panting and exhausted...
genghisdon: Mitra aid Batta in finding any traps or tricks (cast guidance on the kobold rogue)
Smon: "Dogs... behind me..."
Bochi: Alkaia sits on the stairs and adjusts her shortbow to her liking. She checks the fletchings of her eleven arrows. She lays them out beside her in case she needs them.
chris107: @ All except Oona You here the rapid approach and wragged breathing of Oona as she pelts through the canyons.
Smon: (I need to play Batta right now)
Bochi: Alkaia nocks an arrow to cover Oona's approach
genghisdon: "can you please check the way up for us Batta?" (u get +3 on your next check/prof
chris107: @ Oona, you left the braying dogs far behind.
Smon: 1 level of exhaustion - disadvantage on all ability checks.
Smon: That's everything but skills & saves. Oona screwed now. :9
Smon: (Oona is scared of the dogs)
genghisdon: (can't be helped, I have only cantrips left for now)
Drfuzzylogic: Better than being eaten by dogs :<
Bochi: "You'll be fine" says Alkaia. "Just run through the pain."
KenTheConfused: "Oona, maybe you should lay off the bread a little"
Smon: Oona gasps: "I heard dogs, baying - a long way back *gasp*... trackers!"
genghisdon: "catch your breath while Batta scouts for traps & such"
Smon: Oona glares at the wizard who made the 'bread' crack.
Bochi: "Then we should get in the tomb before they arrive. Maybe they won't want to follow inside."
genghisdon: "they will not, but neither do I"
Smon: Batta chirps and goes check the tomb exterior for traps... Perception...
Smon: /roll d20+5
Smon rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 13, (+5) = 18
Smon:
Bochi: "Has anybody got a cantrip to cover our tracks, take our footprints out of the dust?"
genghisdon: +3 for guidance?
Smon: 21 then
KenTheConfused: I can mage hand the sand and do a little light dusting
genghisdon: "no, Alkaia, but Mitra can enhnce your own tracking & counter tracking skills if you wish to try"
Bochi: That would help!
chris107: The little Kobold, even with his eyes stinging from the light reports no traps.
genghisdon: "Mitra aid our brave ranger" guidance on Alkaia
Drfuzzylogic: Does sound echo well around here chris? The picture makes it seem open but have we headed up some kind of windy cliff path that would let out an echo?
genghisdon: (+3 next roll)
chris107: Xandor dusts away some of the eaons of sand that have covered the face of the tomb.
Smon: Oona sits on a rock (brb 3 mins)
chris107: @ Ants. Noise roils down the narrow canyons like thunder.
genghisdon: (I think it is like the great wall of china we are at, yes?)
chris107: Xandor points at ancient writings above the tomb entrance.
genghisdon: I read the markings, if they are my own ancient language
chris107: (Not yet Don, the great wall is about another half mile north. You are in the rocky sandstone canyons leading up to it.
genghisdon: (ok, thnx)
DESTROYERBILL: im back
Drfuzzylogic: "I could perhaps play a trick on our woodbe captors and use my illusionary magic to let out a roar of a mighty dragon. The sound should carry to them and make them more cautious about following us"
Bochi: "Come on, they are nearly here..."
chris107: Even though the carving is strange, Earendil recognises it as High Veridian and can read it.
genghisdon: "go for it, bard"
KenTheConfused: it reminded me of the red city of whatever in the side of the wall, I forget what it is called
Bochi: Petra
*genghisdon reads it aloud to the grou[*
genghisdon: group
KenTheConfused: yes
chris107: 'HERE IN EVERLASTING SLUMBER RESTS ASHAN THE IRON SPEAR.'
chris107: Perta
chris107: Petra even
genghisdon: (Petra)
chris107: Bochi beat me to it
Drfuzzylogic: Belgarion will cast minor illusion. Generating the roar of a mighty Red dragon into the path bellow and then suggests we head into the tomb and out of sight
Smon: Oona winces at the roar. "Great. If they didn't know we were here already..."
genghisdon: no other writing?
chris107: The air is rent by a mighty roar! Magnified many times over by the strange accoustics of your surroundings.
Bochi: Alkaia retreats to the door of the tomb with her bow and arrows and waits for the others to pass inside while she watches for trouble.
genghisdon: guidance (+3) on Batta so the kobold can determine how to open it up
chris107: There are many carvings but no further writing.
chris107: One moment please.
genghisdon: carvings of?
DESTROYERBILL: ok
DESTROYERBILL: so do i roll
Drfuzzylogic: For you reference chris - If a creature uses its action to exam ine the sound or image, the creature can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the illusion becom es faint to the creature
genghisdon: wb
chris107: The door is huge and old. DC20 Athletics to open it. (You can reroll)
genghisdon: heh
chris107: Thanks Ants.
genghisdon: might as well, bill
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+6 and gets: 3, (+6) = 9
DESTROYERBILL: i failed
genghisdon: Mitra grant your might to mighty Oona
chris107: @ Don. Mainly figures from ancient Viridian history. Winged lions, soldiers etc.
genghisdon: +3 to Oona, let her try
genghisdon: thnx chris (mesopotamian style?)
genghisdon: is Simon away still?
KenTheConfused: perhaps there is another, secret entrance behind a wall?
chris107: (Yes)
genghisdon: if so, let Bochi try at +3
genghisdon: "there may be (character name again Ken?)
KenTheConfused: you can call me Xan
genghisdon: "start looking while our muscle tries the door"
Smon: Oona is at disad remember
KenTheConfused: I named my character after the first character I ever had back in 197x
Drfuzzylogic: (Can you switch that +3 round willy nilly don? Quite a handy ability) I provide the young shield maiden with bardic inspiration to aid in the moving of the bolder
Bochi rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 19, (+8) = 27
genghisdon: crazy handy, yes
Smon: She drags herself off the rock slowly.
genghisdon: (only one going at a time though)
Bochi: Alkaia braces herself against the door and pushes steadily
chris107: The mighty shield maiden heaves and the stone door scrapes back... a his escapes it and a foul smelling gasseeps out.
genghisdon: (I was thinking Xan from baldur's gate game, ken!)
Bochi: Alkaia mutters "It's not very fragrant in there"
genghisdon: "ugh, that confirms the undisturbed age, at least"
KenTheConfused: his name was Xandor...he hasnt seen action in over 35 years but this could be Earth II Xandor
genghisdon: Wilderlands Xandor
genghisdon: chris: is there a way to close it on the other side?
Smon: Oona stumbles forward, leaning on her spear. She doesn't look very good.
genghisdon: "everyone get inside quickly"
Smon: (disad on, eg: Initiative, Athletics...)
*genghisdon heads in*
chris107: A set of pale marble steps leads down 9northwards) they are 10' high and the roof above them stays at about that height too.
*genghisdon casts light on my slaver's shield*
Smon: Oona follows them in, glancing back down the canyon for sign of pursuit
chris107: @ Don, a further DC20 athletics roll would close it.
Bochi: Alkaia tries to close the door...
chris107: The light of blessed Mitra illuminates the ancient staircase.
*genghisdon casts guidance on Alkaia again*
Bochi rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 8, (+8) = 16
Drfuzzylogic: (dont forget the inspiration with needed bochi you can add +1d6 to the roll)
genghisdon: "mitra grant hert strength"
chris107: (Advantage to Alkaia if someone helps her)
Drfuzzylogic: if needed*
Bochi rolls 1d6 and gets: 5,
genghisdon: +6 will become +4 then Chris?
Bochi: The song cheers Alkaia and gives her added inspiration
genghisdon: +d6 i mean
Smon: 16+5 = 21 pass right?
chris107: Yes, we are using hiogh average on rolls like that to save time.
genghisdon: (my thing is +d4 Ants, Chris/we were deciding on faster play w/o rolls)
Drfuzzylogic: Ok so +4 then and thankfully still a pass
chris107: 212 is a pass. The door grinds shut behind you with a dull thud.
genghisdon: (so inspiration +d6 is just +4, which is nice!)
Bochi: Alkaia smacks the dust off her hands
genghisdon: "huzza, we are safe, for the moment"
chris107: You all stand in the strange false light. Entomned
Smon: Oona heads slowly down the stairs, looking around.
Bochi: "Don't worry Oona, as soon as we can you can take a breather
genghisdon: (true light of mitra!)
Smon: "I need a nice sleep..."
chris107: The pale steps, seemingly untouched in centuries lead downwards into darkness.
Drfuzzylogic: Im guessing its dark in here chris? If so belgarion will cast light on the tip on oonas weapon
genghisdon: I follow, but warn "we should have Batta look for traps, this is a tomb"
Bochi: Alkaia readies a spear
DESTROYERBILL: fine
Smon: Oona blinks as her spear tip flares to light. "Er, thanks Bard!"
*genghisdon casts guidance on Batta*
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 6, (+5) = 11
chris107: The steps are delved deeply indeed. You go down some 100' before they level out into a 10' wide, 10' high corridor heading directly north. The light of mitra illuminates the walls clearly. They are decorated on both sides like so.
chris107: https://gyazo.com/1c3d5c0d5667a02220ebeda526e6865a
genghisdon: (guidance +3, if u didn't add it bill)
Smon: >14 then
chris107: @ Ants, Don had already cast light but 2 lots don't harm
Smon: Oona regards the frescoes. "More Viridians... Great."
genghisdon: (2 is better, yes!)
genghisdon: "racist"
Smon: She holds the spear up to illuminate them better.
chris107: No traps are obvious
KenTheConfused: lets examine these
chris107: They seem to be cast in plaster over stone.
KenTheConfused: one might be guarding something
genghisdon: they might
genghisdon: cast guidance yet again on Batta
chris107: (Sorry guys could I have your passive perception scores again?)
genghisdon: 13 for me
DESTROYERBILL: 15
Smon: "At least we seem to have lost that other one. Azar." She grins evilly at Earandil. "I think he went dancing off with the Mycretians."
genghisdon: (sounds like Xandor wants to roll though)
chris107: thankyou
Smon: Oona PP 13
Bochi: 13
chris107: What is Xandor doing exactly? (this is old school remember  )
Smon: Batta PP 15
KenTheConfused: sorry
KenTheConfused: I am pushing against some of these figures to see if they give way
Bochi: Alkaia prods the plaster with her spearpoint. Is it soft, mouldy?
Drfuzzylogic: Belgarions passive Perception i believe is a quite shameful 10 oO
Bochi: Crumbly?
Smon: Oona decides to wait and watch the crazy wizard (Xandor/Ken)
Bochi: In any way like Lancashire cheese?
chris107: Xandor pushes against the plaster work, it crumbles pretty easily due to it's age. Revealing stark white plaster then sandstone wall.
Bochi: Crumbly
DESTROYERBILL: fuzzy you add prof
chris107: (We don't use the L word in this house, Bochi)
KenTheConfused: hmm, ok guess the plaster may not be hiding much
Smon: Oona sighs and starts to pad quietly north up the passage (half speed, stealthing)
genghisdon: "it might be, but we can look elsewhere before smashing it down"
Bochi: (I'll call it Burnley then)
KenTheConfused: ok, lets proceed
chris107: Alkai likewise destroys centuries old works of art .
genghisdon: I follow, renewing guidance on Batta as needed
DESTROYERBILL: im sneeking
Bochi: Alkaia follows
chris107: Okay.
genghisdon: "enough destroying please"
DESTROYERBILL: im am going to lean on the walls
Drfuzzylogic: Belgarion will try and position him self behind the ladies with the sharp spears and follow on
chris107: You move along the corridor, little Batta sneaking ahead quietly on his scaly clawks.
DESTROYERBILL: eather thers a trap or a secret door or nothing
genghisdon: (that was my thoughts, hence I keep giving you +3 to find it)
chris107: After about a hundred feet the rest of you look on as Batta leans against the walls.
chris107: @ Bill Perception roll DC 16 with advantage.
DESTROYERBILL Rolls 1d20+8x2 and gets:
11 (+8) = 19
5 (+8) = 13
DESTROYERBILL: k done
chris107: Batta is some 6d10 feet ahead of you at this point.
genghisdon: (all too easy)
chris107 rolls 6d10 and gets: 3, 3, 10, 6, 2, 10, = 34
chris107: 34 feet ahead of you you see the kobold stop, step back and in the dim light at that distance you see the plaster figures begin to errupt from within.
KenTheConfused: I knew it!
Smon: Oona: "Uh oh!"
Bochi: "Just as I suspected!"
Smon: She hefts her spear and races forwards...
DESTROYERBILL: i did to kind i thought walls
chris107: @ Bill, your acute senses note a movement in the plaster seconds before it starts to peel away, you see bony hands with bronze weapons within tring to get out! You have auto initiative this round.
Bochi: Alkaia iss eager to strike a blow and runs forward
Smon: "Kobold! Get back!"
DESTROYERBILL: i run back
chris107: @ the others, initiative please.
Drfuzzylogic: is it d20 in 5th like 3rd?
Smon: /roll d20+2x2
Smon Rolls 1d20+2x2 and gets:
13 (+2) = 15
15 (+2) = 17
Smon: LOL even w disad I get 15
Bochi rolls 1d20+2 and gets: 13, (+2) = 15
chris107: You all gain +4 this round as the 'skeletons' fight their way through plaster.
Smon: d20+DEX bonus
KenTheConfused rolls 1d20+1 and gets: 8, (+1) = 9
Drfuzzylogic rolls 1d20+3 and gets: 13, (+3) = 16
DESTROYERBILL: barb get in there so i get pack tacticks and sneak
Smon: The prospect of battle clearly invigorates Oona
chris107: Just Don?
chris107: Or did \i miss it?
Smon: Don's not rolled
genghisdon rolls 1d20 and gets: 19,
Smon: He has Now!
genghisdon: (sorry, phone)
chris107: (Bill you will have to tell me what your pack tactics do, please.)
DESTROYERBILL: gives me advantage on attaks
chris107: Okay, 'Skeletons'
Bochi: (should give him advantage when his target is being attacked by an ally)
genghisdon: (if others are attacking same for, yes?)
DESTROYERBILL: if alli is attacking enmies
chris107 rolls 1d20 and gets: 11,
DESTROYERBILL: no one els gets my pack tack only me

Smon: @Bill Ready to throw dagger when ally moves adjacent to skel.
chris107: Batta sets off back towards you.

chris107: @ 19 Earendil
DESTROYERBILL: i get my daggers out object interaction get the other as a action
genghisdon: I summon sacred flame from Mitra onto a skeleton/plaster warrior (dex save 13)

chris107: #16 Belgarion
genghisdon: (still need components for many i expect Fuzzy)
KenTheConfused: now that I am free, my first priority is to find gold and purchase a spellbook and spells
Drfuzzylogic: I Will add bardic inspiration to the lady Alkaia "May my song guide your spear shieldmaiden" (_4 to any roll but damage)
Drfuzzylogic: after that i stay back as far away from skeles as possible
chris107: (Please remember to tell me any further actions your characters do at the end of your turn)
chris107: Thanks Ants.
genghisdon: back up
DESTROYERBILL: i need to get a giant sombrero

genghisdon: (radiant dam might do more to undead or the like, dunno/on u chris)
Smon: oona dex 14
Bochi: A;l 15
Bochi: Alkaia jabs her spear at the skeleton illuminated by Don's radiance
chris107: (@ Bill, that tactic isn't going to wash I'm afraid but 10/10 for effort  )
Bochi rolls 1d20+9 and gets: 12, (+9) = 21
DESTROYERBILL: what are you talkin about

chris107: Bit's of bone and plaster break but it keeps coming. #15 Oona
Smon: Oona reverses her grip on the levy spear. Using the blunt end as a staff she comes up and whacks 2-handed at the skel Alkaia hit.

genghisdon: (prob 6, but up to chris)
genghisdon: wow
KenTheConfused: how many are there? is it an entire hallway of these things popping out of the wall?
Smon: Either 2d6+8 or d6+4 times 2
chris107: Oona brings down the spear haft and the first of the four skeletons is smashed to tiny fragments
KenTheConfused: ok
chris107: Oops sorry, yes that should have been 6 damage but still enough.
Smon: not per RAW chris
Smon: He's confused vulnerability with critical hit
Smon: vul is straight x2 dmg
Bochi: vulnerability = 2x all damage
genghisdon: (he assumed, actually, never read it at all)
chris107: Can we please discuss this after? The thing is dead!
chris107: Okay for next time we know.
chris107: Now can we move right along?
genghisdon: sure
genghisdon: init for bill?
chris107: I'll tell you, if you hang on.
genghisdon: (prob not, my bad)
chris107: Please stop jumping the gun. It makes these big combats very difficult if I have to keep typng this rubbish
chris107: Okay. DM: Oona smashes the first of four skeletons to bits.
chris107: Batta moved back on auto initiative.
chris107: to use his pack tactics and has yet to go. He can choose when he does.
chris107: otherwise @ 11 the skeletons brake free and attack.
DESTROYERBILL Rolls 1d20+6x2 and gets:
6 (+6) = 12

chris107: A flying dagger from Batta hit's a freshly emerged skeleton.

genghisdon: yikes!
chris107: Striking it on it's copper shod head and the thing falls lifeless.
Bochi: Alkaia looks at the kobold with fresh respect
chris107: @ 11 the remaining two attack.
DESTROYERBILL: im the killer
Smon: "Me too!"
chris107 rolls 2d6 and gets: 2, 6, = 8
chris107: One at Batta and one at Oona
DESTROYERBILL: im at range
chris107: (as always I use your positions down the right hand side of the screen to determine who is attacked at random)
DESTROYERBILL: so he runs at me
chris107: Not 30' away you're not Bill.
Smon: Maybe it came out of the wall beside Batta
chris107: It came out when you were 34' away.
chris107: Batta moved back (I assumed his full 30' then waitefd to throw? The skeleton moves 30' then attacks 5' reach)
DESTROYERBILL: ok thanks
Smon: Did it move past Alkaia or Oona for opp att?
chris107: v batta
chris107 rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 8, (+4) = 12

KenTheConfused: I let loose a frigid ray of frost at the skeletoin who came charging
KenTheConfused rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 7, (+5) = 12
KenTheConfused: or maybe not
chris107: AC13 miss
chris107: Okay, we're back to the top but I'm going to brake there for 5 mins as Kyle just brought my supper.
genghisdon: sacred flame on Oona's skeleton (dex save 13, ignores cover)
genghisdon: when it matters
genghisdon: we need to get a long rest in some time, for spells * Oona's exhaustion
genghisdon: what spells did Xandor & Belgarion take?
KenTheConfused: i have Burning Hands, MM, Sleep and Prot from evil
KenTheConfused: but only two of those have no components
genghisdon: cool
KenTheConfused: so those two are what I have memorized, and I guess I wont cast them unless it is an emergency
genghisdon: I'm in the same boat ATM, but also used my slots up last game
Drfuzzylogic: As a bard i believe i dont have to prepare spells ahead of time and can just cast like a 1e cleric kinda. My 1st level spells are a little limited in use how ever and are charm person, disguise self, longstrider and detect magic
genghisdon: u can cast them, u just can't change spells w/o book
KenTheConfused: so it is Missile and Hands
KenTheConfused: but you cannot rememorize them again without a book
genghisdon: u do not forget them in 5e
KenTheConfused: oh I had no idea
genghisdon: which of those can u actually use fuzzy?
genghisdon: it's ok, it's odd, i know
Drfuzzylogic: Any? I get to choose at casting and can cast 2 a day
KenTheConfused: I am not an avid 5e-er
genghisdon: i mean components
Drfuzzylogic: (brb bio)
genghisdon: (neither am I, but I'm gettign lots of practice on DF chat)
9:16pm  2018-1-30 chris107 Has exited the room
KenTheConfused: I play with some people and just leave the rules to them
genghisdon: Chris, and I think Simon, like it best now
KenTheConfused: the times I DMed 5e I basically ignored all rolls
9:17pm  2018-1-30 chris107 Has entered the room
Smon: I mostly like 5e best but depends what for
KenTheConfused: 5e is ok but there are just so many rules
9:18pm  2018-1-30 chris107 Has exited the room
KenTheConfused: and discussions always comes down to math
genghisdon: well, having played 3-4, it seems no more than those (less, probably)
Smon: Last night my 4e players were complaining there are no rules in 5e
genghisdon: lol, see
Smon: They refuse to play 5e now due to lack of crunch.
genghisdon: well, u guys play stripped down 5e too,
Smon: I think this particular game might be best in 1e though
KenTheConfused: I was in a 5e game and I went to the black market and tried to puchase poisonous candy to kill orcs without fighting
genghisdon: odd bunch then Simon
KenTheConfused: and what I got was "thats not how poison works, it causes disadvantage"
KenTheConfused: and that is sort of 5e in a nutshell
Drfuzzylogic: for me 5E started out as 3E light (bias as a long time 3E player) Very similar to 3.0 before 3.5 and the 100 books of rule bloat that came after
9:20pm  2018-1-30 chris107 Has entered the room
Drfuzzylogic: the more they release for 5E the more i feel it is just 3E with a new name
Drfuzzylogic: with some 4e flavor
Bochi: Poison does cause disadvantage but it can also cause damage as well
genghisdon: well, it is
Smon: >>"thats not how poison works, it causes disadvantage"<< GM was mistaken
Smon: Wyvern venom 7d6 dmg
genghisdon: well, THAT poison might do that, no?
genghisdon: "poisoned candies" of?
chris107: Back, sorry about that. But piri-piri chicken and garlic bread was not to be turned away
genghisdon: indeed not
Smon: Even the weak poisons in DMG do a bit of dmg
Bochi: Yes the poisoned candy might just give you a bad bellyache
genghisdon: do u want bill to roll init, or is he first still?
Drfuzzylogic: at a quick glance dom the only spell component for any of my spells is a peice of fleece for minor illuson
chris107: DM. Bill initiative please.
Drfuzzylogic: the rest require no components but V/S
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+4 and gets: 17, (+4) = 21
Smon: >>"thats not how poison works, it causes disadvantage"<< Yum
KenTheConfused: and also the silly races
genghisdon: (those are the ones u want, but look for fleece!)
genghisdon: (races? they are in any edition)

chris107: Batta notices as his sharp daggers do their work that the skeletons seem to be held together by copper wire and cogs and such.
Bochi: Bill is STEAMING
DESTROYERBILL: robots
genghisdon: indeed
chris107: The contraption falls apart at Batta's blow.
DESTROYERBILL: well cyborgs

chris107: #16 Belgarion.
Drfuzzylogic: Belgarion will encourage his companions best he can and prepare his fists to strike any skeletons that approach him directly
genghisdon: (there are short swords on the gorund...)
chris107: Okay, got you. first #15 is Alkaia
Bochi: Alkaia rushes to Oona's side. She reverses the grip on her spear and brings the butt down on the skeleton's head with both hands.
Drfuzzylogic: (Near the skeletons.....  Belgarion is a singer/love not a fighter  )
chris107: One slightly singed skeleton left.
Bochi rolls 1d20+5 and gets: 9, (+5) = 14

Smon: LOL
genghisdon: heh
chris107: The powerful Amazon smashes the thing to scrap!
Smon: Oona: "Thanks Alkaia! Thanks Batta!"
DESTROYERBILL: i collect my daggers
Bochi: Alkaia brings a sword to Belgarion.
Smon: Oona feels a bit faint at the sight of blood oozing from her thigh,
Bochi: "Thanks for the musical accompaniment, bard" she grins.
genghisdon: what do they wear for armor aside from helms?
Smon: she sits down to bind it with some rag.
chris107: They lay at your feet all cogs, wheels, wire and bones. Each had a copper circlet around it's head baring an eye design. Each also had a bronze short sword.
*genghisdon helps pull free the copper*
chris107: @ Don, just scraps of rotting leather and mail. Unusable.
Smon: (Oona is tired & isn't planning to move until completed an SR and spent HD).
Drfuzzylogic: Belgarion will scurry forward and arms him self with a bronze short sword, do they have scabards chris?
chris107: DM - The corridor continues ahead out of light range but all is now silent.
chris107: No scabbards

chris107: Earendil has of course heard of the Order of the Veridian Eye. Made up of powerful Wizard-Artificers that create such monstrosities.
genghisdon: was that roll for something chris?
genghisdon: I tell the others
DESTROYERBILL: give me some copper wire a short sword and some cogs and i might make a trap
genghisdon: "we can no doubt expect others in here"
Smon: Oona: "Great... golem skeletons."
genghisdon: does that roll let me think of any other thingsd they make?
Smon: "I KNEW not to trust that priest!"
chris107: I will always tell you all you know, Don.
DESTROYERBILL: ill make a trip wire that sets off the short sword that swings on the cogs

Bochi: Alkaia approves of the kobold's ingenious plan. "This will allow everybody to rest."
chris107: The hour drags by in your underground tomb. All remains quiet. Roll any healing dice etc. Oona is no longer exhausted.
DESTROYERBILL: ill put two swords on for more damage

chris107: Oona ignores the cautious mage and forces the ancient portals open
chris107: They open up into a 40' square chamber, the doors in the centre of the south wall.
KenTheConfused: I guess we're going in
genghisdon: (no where else to go as yet)
Smon: ~looks in, holding up light spear~
chris107: The roof is some 30' above you.
Bochi: Alkaia is glad to see Oona has recovered!
DESTROYERBILL: i check for traps
Smon: Oona gives Alkaia a glancing smile.
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20+8 and gets: 16, (+8) = 24

genghisdon: is there any inspirtions on the walls?
genghisdon: inscriptions
chris107: The walls are strangly plain as is the sarcophagus.
genghisdon: (tell chris where u searhc next please Bill)
Smon: Oona scratches her shaggy blonde head.
chris107: @ Batta, what do you check for traps?
Smon: "An unfinished tomb?"
DESTROYERBILL: i checked for traps
DESTROYERBILL: the sarcofagis
chris107: But what did you check?
genghisdon: I'm obviously following the kobold around, to keep casting onto him
chris107: Okay, Batta sets off across the big chamber and steps up towards the sarcophagus.
genghisdon: (stair trap?)
chris107: Earendil following him.
KenTheConfused: wait guys
genghisdon: i recast guidance on Batta
chris107: Where are the rest of you?
Smon: As Batta & Earendil enter, Oona will follow at 20' behind
genghisdon: (too late I think Ken, sorry/i get it)
KenTheConfused: I have an idea
chris107: (You will find out once I know what everyone is doing)
Smon: So just inside doorway I guess
Bochi: Yes Alkaia too
genghisdon: I move back to Xan then, and cast guidance on HIM
chris107: Don, you are on the step behind Batta
genghisdon: (ends it on Batta)
genghisdon: ok
Drfuzzylogic: Belgarion is loitering at the entrance preparing for the what he fears is inevitable monster to show up
chris107: Okay, got you all. Thank you.
chris107: DM: As Batta's clawed foot falls upon the step there is a explosive crack and the sarcophagus lid flies off.
chris107: In the shocked seconds silence that follows...
genghisdon: (Chris aims to teach bill old school trap-y-nes, eh?)
chris107: A terrible thing rises from the tomb.
DESTROYERBILL: so i diddnt get the chance to check for traps then
KenTheConfused: its a balrog no doubt
Smon: Oona eyes the Thing.
DESTROYERBILL: well barb go on
genghisdon: (say the floor, then the stair, then the sarcofagus, next time round bill)
chris107: Firstly a polished white skull, fanged and with an eerie green light glowing in it's eyes. Then it rises on a huge snake skeleton body!
genghisdon: "A necrophidius, avert your gaze!"
chris107: @ Bill - You were heading to check for traps on the sarcophagus?
Smon: Oona watches as it rises up... and up...and up...
genghisdon: (which i do)

Smon: LO
DESTROYERBILL: yes
Smon: L
genghisdon: (sorry, can't help myself sometimes)

Bochi: "If I can hit it, I can kill it, whatever it is"

Drfuzzylogic: (Chris a note for my bardic inspiration, the player is meant to choose to add the +4 before they know if they would save or not, where you list the DCS upfront thats kind of hard  Happy they can just choose to add +4 with the knowledge or want people to say before they roll fullstop?)

10:26pm  2018-1-30 Drfuzzylogic Has exited the room
chris107: (Ants, thanks for playing mate, I'll post the XP on the facebook page)
Smon: Oona: "There was this guy called Charelsfane, see, he had a false tomb just like this."
chris107: Oona finds a slight crack in the plaster of the north wall, directly behind the sarcophagus.
chris107: @ Simon
genghisdon: "what did it hide? gold? jewels? prayer beads?"
Smon: "EXACTLY like this...."
chris107: It looks like the plaster covers a hidden door.
DESTROYERBILL: open it
Smon: Oona: "Oh, the usual..." she tries to open it.
DESTROYERBILL: i get my daggers
genghisdon: I help batter away the plaster with the shield
chris107: How are you going about that, Bill?
Bochi: Has her bow out now, ready to shoot over the kobold's head if needs be
chris107: Cool, shield batter away the plaster revealing the door which opens easily.
genghisdon: "does anyone want the copper wire & such from this one?"
DESTROYERBILL: i pick up my daggers fast?
KenTheConfused: sure, and the wheels might be handy too
PapersAndPaychecks: I think you should rush into the room without checking for traps at all
chris107: Mitra's light illuminates a 30'x30' chamber beyond.
chris107: @ Bill, you can.
genghisdon: cool, but i go back & help take apart the snake bones first
genghisdon: maybe it has a gem for eyes or the like
chris107: Within you notice many things.. bare with my slow typing.
chris107: @ Don, I'll come back to you.
Bochi: Alkaia was thinking of gathering up some wire later so as to make a necklace from the teeth of her enemies.
genghisdon: sure
genghisdon: (helping Ken/Xan)
Bochi: Or maybe feathers.
KenTheConfused: I bet we'll find a staff of the magi here
genghisdon: (and Alkaia too it seems)
chris107: A rotted wooden charriot drawn by two skeletal horses, their harness decorated with silver.
chris107: 6 armed and bronze armoured skeletons (Bronze scale mail and scimiter)
DESTROYERBILL: after i pick up my daggaers i follow them
chris107: a huge pile of copper and silver coins
DESTROYERBILL: well so this is the end of the setion
chris107: many rotten bolts of fancy cloth
genghisdon: loot (& foes?)
KenTheConfused: I can only imagibe what happens if we hop into the chariot, grab the reins and say giddyup
chris107: several 2' tall clay amphora
genghisdon: 
Bochi: Alkaia tries to sense whether they are undead
Smon: we have to go, will post log
genghisdon: (detect undead is cool ability)
KenTheConfused: are we stopping here?
chris107: and a beutiful rosewood chest about 2'x1' bound in bronze and with a lock.
genghisdon: (lots of loots to look over to start next game)
Bochi: What will happen is most likely the skeletal horses will drag you helter-skelter back along 330 feet of corridor and you will end up impaled on Bill's swinging short sword trap.
chris107: Okay. We'll stop there and pick up next week. 300XP each.
genghisdon: lol
DESTROYERBILL: well lets cover that next week
genghisdon: damn, L2 & still no holy symbol or whatnot
KenTheConfused: thats enough for 2nd level, yes?
