Liatai:Welcome back. :3

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">Thanks.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Holy crow, you did. O_o *checking*

Meany:<font color="#660033">Yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo.

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">Hi there, meany. :)

TMG:<font color="#000000">Oh, actually, just rememebred somethign else I wanted to add...

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">Is that a Catfolk token? the &quot;Barbarus&quot; fellow?

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Why yes. Barbarus is our resident one-eyed, one-armed, were-weasel catfolk prankster. :B

TMG:<font color="#000000">Oh ghoooo-oooost....

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Yesssss? :&gt;

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">That's about the same level of artwork that I'm capable of...And part of the same fandom. :P

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">How'd he lose his arm?

TMG:<font color="#000000">http://akellon.wikia.com/wiki/Eyllisaearsithek_Clan

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Were-weasel.

TMG:<font color="#000000">So you can collect all your stories. Have fun. :&gt;

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">Bear trap?

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Were-weasel ate it.

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">...ow.

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Ja.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">XD

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Oh boy. I gotta fill in the blanks, huh?

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">Well, that's a better fate than being carried in a wineskin. After a beholder fell on my Elf Cleric.

TMG:<font color="#000000">Yep. :P

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">So, last night was crazy at work.

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">&quot;IT ATE MY BOW!!!&quot; (Stabs its eyes with arrows until its dead)

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Welp, unless Liatai says otherwise, I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to fill them in as we meet them. :&gt;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Can you function, or should we cast sleep on you Doktor?

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">He just said crazy day, not that he's exhausted. :P

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">afk

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">My boss tells me she's pregnant now. And then the girl I take home every night gets a text and murmurs, &quot;Oh, my brother's been shot.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">And I'm just thinking at the end of the day,

Liatai:<font color="#000000">O_o

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I don't care I need to go to bed. :I&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">o.o;;

* VAE mroweth

Liatai:<font color="#000000">:36 lagcheck!

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">:37

Liatai:<font color="#000000">:37 at :37. Yay. :3

GM:<font color="#000000">Righto! Who's here? :3

TMG:<font color="#000000">Altonor needs his token image, by da way

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Just added.

TMG:<font color="#000000">on the wiki, I mean

TMG:<font color="#000000">Present!

TMG:<font color="#000000">Cool

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">fhwhgads

VAE:<font color="#000000">So, hatari will be out of here?

Liatai:<font color="#000000">And no, Ghost, you can add Eyllisaearsitheks at your whim. x3

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I will? =3=

VAE:<font color="#000000">Ah

* VAE thought you are going to bed from earlier talk

RAM:<font color="#990000">My chi is mad focused, yo!

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">No, I'm fine.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I was just commenting on unusual circumstances.

* Meany drags Hatari's bed into the server so he can sleep while he plays.

Meany:<font color="#660033">=3=

VAE:<font color="#000000">either way, not only your end shit's been happening .Apparently, from what my family has heard somewhere, the father of one of my friends and neighbours (same appartment, a floor lower) might have had a stroke

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Here!

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I'm far too jaded and calm a person to be upset by other people's life-altering circumstances. =3=

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Weeeeeeeeee. :&gt;

VAE:<font color="#000000">good to hear that.

GM:<font color="#000000">Let's kick things off then!

VAE:<font color="#000000">Ahahaha

* VAE just found the village of Murder

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Sorry to hear that. My dad has had a pair of strokes. He's a completely different person than who he was before. Hopefully your friend comes out in good health.

VAE:<font color="#000000">His father, not my friend

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Father's friend then. :P

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Or friend's father. =3=

GM:<font color="#000000">Last time on Akellon... well, there was a lot of talking. Talk of the Leaden Mace, talk of dragons, and talk of guardianship.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Hmm, rumours said otherwise, but well, l hope it's just that

GM:<font color="#000000">Is there any more talking that you'd like to get done before the timeskip to the hills -- ack noooo *dragged off by Thomas* We'll be getting off the boat this session I swear

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Very funny, Ghost. I am not drunk.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Killer family,.. lol

VAE:<font color="#000000">and before, because Ram might have not seen, never mind visitor

RAM:<font color="#990000">I know.

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">what about fhwhgads?

VAE:<font color="#000000">http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~dm510/mace.jpg

RAM:<font color="#990000">He was here last week, too.

VAE:<font color="#000000">And yes, that joke never gets old, especially not after reading the minisession,.

RAM:<font color="#990000">And yes, I saw that. Has Techy seen it?

VAE:<font color="#000000">of course

TMG:<font color="#000000">Alright, enough waving that around, danman. It's not funny anymore (wasn't really funny the first time, either)

Liatai:<font color="#000000">.... ahhhhh crud.

VAE:<font color="#000000">People seem to say otherwise

Liatai:<font color="#000000">:46 lagcheck.

* VAE waits for the official stance of the Fun Commitee

TMG:<font color="#000000">I have nothing planned thtat can't wait until after the Hills.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">:E

TMG:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt's just in the hold, crafting a new...something, to be determined at a later time, and with retroactive craft checks

Meany:<font color="#660033">I got nothing.

RAM:<font color="#990000">I think it's hilarious.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Radioactive craft checks, too?

RAM:<font color="#990000">:46

VAE:<font color="#000000">fff

RAM:<font color="#990000">D: VAE:<font color="#000000">uff

Liatai:<font color="#000000">:46 at :46

Liatai:<font color="#000000">I think I just caught up.

RAM:<font color="#990000">Hopefully!

GM:<font color="#000000">Well then! Without further ado... today is Yondallon 14th, a clear crisp autumn day, and the Cygnet has just pulled in near the spot in the Hills of Gilforen that had been marked on your map.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Finally!

VAE:<font color="#000000">Also, the thing with altonor was definitely a fubar, not snafu

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">With today's work out of the way (and potentially a teensy tiny offscreen stop at some random riverside hamlet or something), Gnogglebolt makes his way to the deck as the Cygnet puts down anchor.

* Terri hops off the gangplank onto the shore. She bounces up and down on her toes a little, waiting for everyone to get off the ship. &quot;C'mon, he's prob'ly waitin' for us.&quot; :3

Terri:<font color="#000000">Please move over to the Hills of Gilforen map when you're ready!

VAE:<font color="#000000">hmm, so, how much time passed since last session? The night?

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Yep. Miron can prepare new spells.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Wait.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Oh there's Kor. x3

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">:3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang takes a little longer than the rest, since he has to pull his deffbike up.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Hmm.

TMG:<font color="#000000">Danman; the night and half a day, yes

Meany:<font color="#660033">I cannot impersonate my token.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Errors pop up.

* Meany circumvents.

* Thomas Lazarus steps off the deck with his hands folded into his robe sleeves. He merely follows Terri while looking about every now and then.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Vould hyu like to ride vith me, Terri?&quot; :3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Hahaha.

TMG:<font color="#000000">try reconnecting?

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Mm-mm. I think I should lead the way.&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">Oop. hey Ram

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Map Explorer.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Look, I don't recall IRL dates without having one on my armwatch

TMG:<font color="#000000">mind er, holding off on that line for juuuust a sec? ^^;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Totally bypassed it.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Why do you think i'll recall game ones?

TMG:<font color="#000000">Oh, nevermind

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hokay!&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Otherwise the guardians might not recognize all of you. D'you have the discs?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">brb

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;yes.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Any particular reason why, Techy?

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Not using current arrangement tokens as 'real' as the party is bustling to make it's way off the plank, Gnogglebolt tugs Terri's shirt sleeve and tries to move her slightly away from the others (before she starts this spechifying--or, after. Whatever works.)

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Ooohh...

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;What is it, Mr. Gnogglebolt?&quot; Terri stands still, tilting her head.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">is Terri and Gnogglebolt off to the side and no one looking as they're disembarking, or is Terri still at the front of the goup in full view

Terri:<font color="#000000">Terri is still at the front of the group, and doesn't seem to be following.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Nevermind then. he wan wait until everyone's started moving.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">*he can wait

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Don't let me leave the next city until I wring it dry looking for a scroll of scrying.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus smiles a little.

Terri:<font color="#000000">Good luck, she's pretty intent on trying to stay at the front of the group and lead the way.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt also pulls out the little...disc...of...something...that terri gave everyone a long time ago. :B

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..Don't forget, you'll also need a focus for it.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Said the dumb cleric to the wizard.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Should Miron have one?

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh yeah. You've prob'ly guessed what those discs are, right?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Vait...vat iz dis about a disc?&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">Every Guardian except Shankfang has one.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Yes, either a rather pricey mirror, or a crystal ball. You know, it's times like these I wish I had taken up the oldest tradition of the elves. Lucky bastards just need a pool of water. A pool of water. And they have spells who can MAKE those, for pete's sake!&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh! You don't have one, Mr. Shankfang!&quot; :o

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Nope!&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">Miron shuffles around his robes, and pulls out the widget.

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;It should be okay. I'll give you one when we get away from the ship. They're just scales, after all.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hmm, I almost forgot about these...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Is that what those were..&quot; :o

VAE:<font color="#000000">any knowledge checks appropriate?

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oh, hokay. Henny particular reason for dem?&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus begins rummaging around the interior pockets of his robe and his belt. :9

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Mm-hmm. Polished scale pieces.&quot; :3 &quot;They smell like the family, so the guardians would be able to identify you as a friend of the family.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Back.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Guardians... you mean those blink dogs.. right...&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">Arcana if you like, but dragon scales are dragon scales. :B

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oh! Hy em definitely gunna need vun uf doze, den. Hy vould radder not get my face cheved uff.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Miron doesn't understand elven, yes? :&gt;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+17 = 11 + 17 = 28&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Arcana. Either let's find what we can, or at least waste a bad roll

VAE:<font color="#000000">No

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Let's see let's see.. spell components.. bolts.. wine (ooh, need to use that!) holy water, awesome portrait, scarf from mom, scrolls..

VAE:<font color="#000000">He ust knows a few words now and then

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Tathi~&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">Coward and most swears

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Remember, scrying shards. :v&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">like, the sort of thing you should beat people up for shouting at you

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..I'm sorry Terri. I think I left mine in my chest of things in Castleton.&quot; &gt;: Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Among others, Mr. Miron.&quot; Terri nods. &quot;Though I don't think Kivan's gonna be outside. Should be okay if I'm with you, though.&quot; :3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Small, portable, inexpensive, but not much very large.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Er large picture.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;We'll see if we can find those.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;*Phew* At least that.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Shall we? =w=&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Onward?

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Onward then, into the foliage!

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Though if you want some scales anyway, I can give you some. I've been sheddin' lots.&quot; ^^;

Miron:<font color="#000000">Hmm, Thomas.. if smell is the important thing...

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">+1 interwebz for whoever knows what that's from.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;It's likely enough if we walk well enough together.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Indeed. Onward! And after walking for a minute or so, Gnoglebolt catches up to walk beside Terry, and tilts his head towards her while still looking forward.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">*Terri

Miron:<font color="#000000">*hands him shard* &quot;Rub it on your clothes for a while,, should do it.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">He's not muttering conspiratorially or anything, just speaking in a quiet conversation voice.

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Miiiron...

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Miiiirooooooon...

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+2+floor((wisdom-10)/2) = 19 + 2 + floor((13 - 10) / 2) = 22&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; listen!

Liatai:<font color="#000000">XD

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+10 = 1 + 10 = 11&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; spot and &#171;  &#160;1d20+11 = 15 + 11 = 26&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; listen!

Miron:<font color="#000000">The bike again

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;What do you want this time?&quot; 

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">I am haaauuuuuntiiiing yooooouuuuuu...

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;By the way...is Terri? Do you remember the small promise I asked you to make?&quot; He says in a soft conversation tone, almost whispering.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&#171; &#160;1d20+5 = 2 + 5 = 7&#160; <font color="#660033">&#187; Spot check!

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&#171; &#160;1d20+5 = 10 + 5 = 15&#160; <font color="#660033">&#187; Listen check!

Miron:<font color="#000000">''I don't like this. The last time he spoke to me, I uncovered a drowish conspiracy a day later.''

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Oh.. okay, I guess.&quot; :B

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">*By the way...Terri?

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Which promise, Mr. Gnogglebolt?&quot; Terri also asks quietly.

* Thomas Lazarus polishes the dragon scale on his sleeves a bit. Buff'd! *bricked*

Terri:<font color="#000000">The GM doesn't remember. :B *brick'd*

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">You are going craaaaazyyyyyyy...

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;When we get there, and we've settled in, and you have some time alone with your family...just ask one of them about 'timing'. Can you do that for me?&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">Tom: FUS RO DAAAH!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Dragula, stop messing with the inquisitor. -_-

* Terri huffs.

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">Time to catch up....

Miron:<font color="#000000">''No, i'm not crazy. You are. You are a bloody bike. You shouldn't be talking to people. Just like that cup. ''

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Please? Just ask one of them about it, anyone. Can you do that?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider: <font color="#990000">(( Aaand brb, bafroom. ))

Miron:<font color="#000000">''He had an excuse of being magical. You aren't. It's silly ''

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Mr. Gnogglebolt, I knew what I was doin'. But if it will make you happier, then yes.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi narrows her eyes a little, and turns to Amadre, pointing at Gnogglebolt. &quot;Gnome.&quot; She says in elven.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Thank you.&quot; Gnogglebolt falls back behind with the rest of the group in step.

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Amadre's ears perk, and here she comes!! Dog missile on your 6, Gnogglebolt!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Bwackgth!&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">You know one of these days you're going to accidentally sick one of those dogs on Tiddleknocks.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+3 = 13 + 3 = 16&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Spot?

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Hi. :3 And then she proceeds to clean your face. With her tongue.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Spot check.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">... Miron beat me to it. :B

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&#171; &#160;1d20+5 = 19 + 5 = 24&#160; <font color="#660033">&#187; Spot check!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">And after usual puppy-tussling and tossing the leather ball to make them go away, Gnogglebolt gets back up and walks with everyone once more.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">...spot check? &#171; &#160;1d20 = 8&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+2+floor((wisdom-10)/2) = 16 + 2 + floor((13 - 10) / 2) = 19&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; Spot!

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&#171; &#160;1d20+2 = 10 + 2 = 12&#160; <font color="#FF0000">&#187; :.

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+10 = 15 + 10 = 25&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; spot and &#171;  &#160;1d20+11 = 4 + 11 = 15&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; listen!

Miron:<font color="#000000">''At least the bitch's bitches are after someone else for once. And one that deserves it. ''

You whisper to Meany: Something just appeared between the trees, taking off after the ball before vanishing a split second later.

You whisper to Ghostwish: Something just appeared between the trees, taking off after the ball before vanishing a split second later.

You whisper to VAE: Something just appeared between the trees, taking off after the ball before vanishing a split second later.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi quirks an eyebrow. &quot;You see that Aelian?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Neat.&quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I did. I have a funny feeling we're in the blink dog territory now. Say, Gnogglebolt. Throw that ball again.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I think one of them..&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Blink dogs.. well, whatever it was, it blinked.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt blinks and looks back at Aelian, and stops with the group.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">He hols the little clod of leather high in his hand, shakes it, then flicks it off into a bush.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Back. And &#171; &#160;1d20 = 11&#160; <font color="#990000">&#187; Spot check!

Miron:<font color="#000000">*moves closer to Thomas involuntarily*

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">*He holds he

Blink Dog with a Limp:<font color="#000000">Blink.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Really I--&quot; OwO

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">O_o !

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh my.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Holy crap blink dogs.&quot; O.o

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:D

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;PUPPIES!&quot;

Blink Dog 3:<font color="#000000">LOTS of blink dogs. They flicker around the edge of the group cautiously, circling.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Are they growling, or just staring?

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">:O!! Dogs! Everywhere! Rrrrrrrrr, go away! I'm scary! Rrrrrrr!

Blink Dog with a Limp:<font color="#000000">One of them is laying atop a large rock, looking down at the group... and you'd swear it was grinning.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*very, very still*

* Thomas Lazarus stiffens and watches the dogs warily. &gt;:.

Terri:<font color="#000000">:D

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Lots uf puppies!&quot; :o

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">To his credit, he rememebers Terri's words and doesn't draw any weapons.

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Falterpaw!&quot; :D

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;What's up with that one? He's watching us.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Devil's arse, not this many of them.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus gives Shankfang a flat look. =3=

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...They're....actually rather cute.&quot; Gnogglebolt grins himsef. He pulls out the disc--dragon scale--and holds it out in his hand, with a wide openmouthed smile and a happy voice reserved for babies and small animals. &quot;Hi there, hi! We're friends, see? Friends!&quot;

Blink Dog with a Limp:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ahhh, no, the puppies, they are elsewhere.&quot; Grin.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Sszeyl seems nonplussed. =3=

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;How intriquing.&quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Holy crap it talks.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Miron pulls out the scale and holds it as far from himself as he can.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">...But he doube-takes at the one that talks.

* Terri approaches and curtsies. :3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Talkink puppies!&quot; :O

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;You can talk?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Why are you surprised?&quot;

Blink Dog with a Limp:<font color="#000000">The blink dog grins... then blinks down next to Terri.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;They can talk...&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh. Um. Ahem. Er.&quot; he quickly stands bck up, wipes the open mouth off his face, and tries to recompose himself. 'Right.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Why are you not?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Nerull's rotten dick. &quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;We're approaching a Dragon's Den.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Talking. Hmm. Didn't know that.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;I'm amazed the Trees aren't bewitched.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hi talkink puppies!&quot; :3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Thought Gnogglebolt does quickly shoot back a &quot;Language, Miron!&quot; at the other gnome.

* Dr. Hatari is typing-impeded by fatcat butt. &gt;:O

RAM:<font color="#990000">Hi fatcat!

Blink Dog with a Limp:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah, I am afraid our shaman is not yet that talented.&quot; Sniffsniff. &quot;Always a pleasure, small one, always, always.&quot; Grin, tailwag. The rest of the dogs are still watching the group carefully, tails held low and relaxed. This one's tail is held higher. &quot;And a pleasure as well to meet friends of the master, yes, if that is what you are.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;So, Terri, who is this?&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;They are.&quot; :3

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Ack, BRB, phone.

Miron:<font color="#000000">''I don't know. I don't care. I want to bloody go as far from them as I bloody can. ''

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;So, Falterpaw, is it? Pleasure to meet you. I'm Tathi, and we're all the Vigilant Guardians. I believe your master might be expecting us?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Indeed, young Terri brought us here to rendezvous with the rest of her family.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus lets Terri do the talking. He keeps a neutral expression and calm composure in the meantime. One way or another, he does not seem to be overjoyed at the sight of being surrounded by arcane guard dogs. Which he most certainly does not think of as puppies. =3=

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">They're freaking -huge-.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;So...do we pass your inspection, or must we do something else first?&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Gah.

Miron:<font color="#000000">I'm a foot smaller than you. They are bigger than huge, the fuckers

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Hold on a moment, please.

VAE:<font color="#000000">wot?

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Got to fix the furnace.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Sure.

VAE:<font color="#000000">You hear an explosion somewhere far, far away.

VAE:<font color="#000000">as an aside, anyone recalls how tall are these ?

RAM:<font color="#990000">They are medium creatures, but that's all the MM says on their size.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Medium is still pretty large for a dog.

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">afk for a bit.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Doo doo dee doo.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Sorry sorry ^^;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Yoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo.

Blink Dog with a Limp:<font color="#000000">&quot;That is my name in your tongue, yes, it is.&quot; Grin. He makes a soft yip to the other blink dogs, and they relax their stances, and some even dare to wag their tails. &quot;You will, ah, forgive, I hope. Few here understand the human language.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Of course, of course. My language repertoir is extensive, but, ah, even I don't know any...intelligent hound tongues.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Kan Hy pet henny uf hyu?&quot; :3

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;An' that's Shineclaw, an' that's Fireback, an' that's Whisperfang, an' that's Dashtail, an' that's Highleap on the rock, an' that's Stoneseat!&quot; ^^

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Amadre, quit growling! You're no match for one of these hounds, you crazy puppy.&quot;

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Arooo. : Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">:(

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;ooh. Ah, hello..' Gnogglebolt tentatively holds uout a hand for the apparently intelligent hound in front of him. o.o

Fireback:<font color="#000000">The others move closer, sniffing curiously. There are some more hesitant tailwags. :3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:D Pet pet pet!

Fireback:<font color="#000000">Wagwagwagwagwag |3

* Thomas Lazarus offers Highleap a hand to sniff. :.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Here's your scale.. now get away..&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*pulls back*

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...Shineclaw, is it? Well, I don't know if you can understand me or not, but nice to meet you, Shineclaw...&quot;

* Highleap rears up and puts his paws on Thomas' shoulders. o.o Sniffsniffsniff.

Highleap:<font color="#000000">Lickface. :9

Meany:<font color="#660033">Afk. :v

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Amadre jumps back a few paces, ears perked. o.o

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Tavia's a lot more recieving. She wags her tail and sniffs curiously at Stoneseat.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oie, lovely, I have a paranoid puppy. I'll start calling her Miron.&quot; She says, smiling as she offers a hand for Whisperfang to sniff.

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;She says you smell of metal and the river.&quot; Grin to Gnogglebolt.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">|3

* Thomas Lazarus pets.

Highleap:<font color="#000000">8D Full-body wagging dance!

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Fuck you too, Tathi.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Haloo Fireback!&quot; :3 Enjoy the ear scritchies!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt chuckles. &quot;I'm sure I do!&quot; he responds to 'Falterpaw'

Highleap:<font color="#000000">Apparently Tom got the hyper one. Lick lick slurp lick :D

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ahh, but where are our manners. You are to be welcomed.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Ah yes, and just to tell you all, the foul-mouthed gnome over there just adores getting flattened by large hounds all the time.&quot; Tathi says with a sarcastic tone.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">{|3

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">The canine makes a curious yipping chuckle. &quot;Then he will love the alpha, yes, he will.&quot; |3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt grins evilly himself. &quot;Oh, yes indeed! Sic 'em all you like.&quot; Gnogglebolt chimes in with Tathi.

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;Come, come. You are expected.&quot;

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">Blink!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Yah, he luvs it!&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt--tries to follow the disappearing dog. :U

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Mm, there's another spell I should consider. Teleportation.&quot; She says, and heads off.

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Hey! Hey! How'd you do that!? :O

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;Come, come, don't be left behind.&quot; |3

Miron:<font color="#000000">Assholes.

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Wow you guys are fast. :O

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Follow the puppies!

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;C'mon, c'mon!&quot;

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Vroom vroom.

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Amadre follows, but stays low and quick, like she's stalking the blinkers. XP

Miron:<font color="#000000">*follows, holding back as much as he can.*

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Shut up, clunker. ''

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">oops, brb, bio

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">Please arrange behind Falterpaw's group? Up to 5 squares across is acceptable.

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">You're talking to an inanimate object. In your head. You are so very crazy.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang picks Terri up as he rolls past her, placing her in front of him on the bike. Just because he can. |3

Miron:<font color="#000000">No. I'll not allow her bitches to stand behind my bloody back *shifts*

* Terri had been yipping to the dogs -- &quot;-- yip!&quot; Picked up!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Surprise!&quot; :3

Fireback:<font color="#000000">Bark-chuckle. =3=

Terri:<font color="#000000">Wiggle wiggle, grumbly growl to Fireback.

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Was just askin' Whisperclaw if Frosfur had their puppies.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Back.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:o &quot;Puppies?&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Puppies!&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:D

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">The blink dogs flicker and pad their way ahead of the group... well, sometimes ahead, sometimes behind, until the group comes upon a rocky hillside.

Vuz:<font color="#660033">:o

Vuz:<font color="#660033">So many dogs!

Dashtail:<font color="#000000">KITTY :O

Miron:<font color="#000000">I know, right?

Dr. Hatari whispers: Thomas, Miron and Edaric.

You whisper to Dr. Hatari: Thank you. :3

Miron:<font color="#000000">VAE is now imagining Vuz climbing onto Sszeyl's head

Dr. Hatari whispers: Or was it Shankfang.

Dr. Hatari whispers: You get the idea.

You whisper to Dr. Hatari: Shankfang, I think.

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Nah.

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Hey, writer, get out of my fucking head! You have your own body! ''

Vuz:<font color="#660033">I'm lounging across his shoulders like a boa. =w=

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Some people ... *spits* ''

Vuz:<font color="#660033">He's a smooth ride. Hardly ever jostles me.

VAE:<font color="#000000">With dogs around?

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">A small doorway is set into the side of the cliff, barely large enough for one of the dogs. &quot;Here, ah, we are.&quot; |3

Vuz:<font color="#660033">I'm a kitten, VAE.

* VAE mroweth

Vuz:<font color="#660033">I'm young enough to tolerate dogs if I'm exposed to them a lot.

* Falterpaw looks backward toward the group. &quot;Well? Who wants to knock?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Iz dere a bigger entrance? Or zumvere safe to leaff my deffbike?&quot;

* Falterpaw just grins.

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Listen, clunker? The dogs will piss all over ya.''

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Well then, knock knock! Anybody home?

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Will save, Shankfang.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt just follows along, face upturned and looking about curiously, watching everything and waiting for something to happen.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">|I &quot;...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Thomas does not knock on the door to the dragon's lair. :B

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">D: VAE:<font color="#000000">One doesn't simply knock into Mordor!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&#171; &#160;1d20+2 = 17 + 2 = 19&#160; <font color="#990000">&#187; will save, my lowest save.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Trololol.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Jesus saves, and so does Shankfang

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">|3

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">back. :&gt;

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">Wag.

Sszeyl: <font color="#660033">(( Wb. ))

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Le enter?

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Tricky tricky.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Pettinz for Falterpaw.

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;Come, come, then.&quot; And the dog walks straight through the closed door.

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Vroom!

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Le enter.

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Amadre, Tavia...

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Gnome!

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi tests the door as well. A simple illusion, player is guessing?

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">ready for DM-vworp :U

Miron:<font color="#000000">''I'm the only one who hears ya, bugger. ''

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">That depends on how troll Ghost is feeling right now, little gnome.

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Ah, but if they do... it means you can't claim me insane. ''

Miron:<font color="#000000">''I win either way, clunker. ''

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">As soon as you pass through the veneer of illusion, the passageway opens up. Large, heavy stone doors stand open beyond the entrance to the cave, and you walk on a smooth stone floor beyond them. The cavern is quite warm, a nice contrast from the chilly outdoors.

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Touche, little gnome. Touche.

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">But you're still insane.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Bloody hell.. do you lot have heating here?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Ooh.&quot;

Visitor:<font color="#0099CC">going now. See ya everybody. :)

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;In, ah, a manner of speaking.&quot; |3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Oh, hi Max. I see you're one of the prototype me's. :O

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oooh, iz toasty!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Big blink dogs.&quot;

Sszeyl: <font color="#660033">(( Yo. ))

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Oooooo, sniff sniff sniff sniff the everything.

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Max!&quot; :D

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">... Nice look! |3

<font color="#0000ff">Visitor is disconnected.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;It shouldn't be this warm in here on its own. What do you mean... underground hot water streams?&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Really? XD

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Greetings, Max Toris! Barely half a month and it already feels as if it's been too long!&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I have seen those used for heating back in dwarven cities.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Yes. If that is indeed what's-his-name from Guilty Gear.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;-- Terri!&quot; :D

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;HALOO!&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi snickers. &quot;Really Miron? The lair of a dragon, unheated? The dragon -is- the heat source.&quot;

* Max hops down off the dias where he had been talking to two... HUGE blink dogs.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Not all dragons are, Tathi.&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">:D !!

* Thomas Lazarus seems distracted by the big blink dogs. o_o;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Who says the ones here breathe fire?&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I do. Because it's warm in here.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Big puppies!&quot; :D

* Thomas Lazarus gives Tathi and Miron a flat look. -_-

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;That's cricular logic.&quot;

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">NO FAIR! Yer so big. :|

* Max scoops up his sister. &quot;Oof, did you get taller?&quot; :3

Miron:<font color="#000000">*circular

Big Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">The biggest dog looks at you flatly. :|

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot; ..I think that was supposed to be Terri's secret to reveal.&quot;

Calm Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">The other one... has an owl on her shoulder that does the looking.

Rufus:<font color="#000000">Hoo. o.o

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">RRrrrr, I'm still scarier than you.

Vuz:<font color="#660033">-Bird!

VAE:<font color="#000000">looh! Meany cameo!

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Hi bird! :D

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Haloo!&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Amadre, quiddit!&quot;

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Imma eat you!

Rufus:<font color="#000000">Hoo! o.o

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">If I weren't at the opposite end of the corridor, I'd be right there with you, Thomas...

Miron:<font color="#000000">*actually looks up in direction of noise source*

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;. . . &quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">0__O

Big Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">:|

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">And then Miron had a stroke.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I.. &quot;

* Terri is rapidly talking in Draconic.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">And Tathi danced on top of him as he rakked out.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...to state the obvious, those are some -impressively- large dogs...&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*gulp*

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Vroom, rumble rumble.

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I.. do not recall blink dogs becoming so large..&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;(-- And I told them, I know I shouldn't have, but I had to, they were fighting and -- and Mr. Aelian died and didn't tell me and --)&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">{|3

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Did you catch any of that?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Atleast it's Max...

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Nope.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">It could have been her Dad.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Oh yes, and Gnogglebolt does speak Draconic.

Miron: <font color="#000000">&quot;S.s..saint..C.cuth..b.bert.g.g.give me str..strengtttth&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Or worse. ''Brian. D|''

* Max sets Terri down. &quot;(Slow down, slow down, Teria.)&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Did he catch anything that was said?

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Don't wizards usually speak draconic?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">oh, rihght

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">I saw it, nevermind

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I never bothered to learn that moonspeak.&quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;.. you're weird.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Would you have me any other way?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Max is a Bishie~!

Max:<font color="#000000">I'm a bard, what do you expect. =3=

* Max is brick'd.

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I could mention a few things, but not in front of Terri.&quot; And he earns a whap for that one.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt patiently remains a polite distance away until Max and Terri have finished their excited conversation.

* Thomas Lazarus gives Miron a reassuring shoulder-clap. |3

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">except he's the closest one of the party.. XD

* Terri takes a deep breath and stands up straight. &quot;(... I told them the family secret.)&quot; ;.;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;B..brother..I..I think..&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;(Which one?)&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">ALL OF THEM. Terri gets disowned. XP

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Glance back at Swallowtail.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy vonder vere he keeps his hoard...&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">She gone all praying again?

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;(The one I wasn't supposed to tell until I got to the coast.)&quot;

Teeny Rin:<font color="#FF0000">We know you've been skipping out on your property taxes for this place!!

Teeny Rin:<font color="#FF0000">The crown will hear of this, dragons!

TMG:<font color="#000000">......On a technical note.

Teeny Rin:<font color="#FF0000">We are the 99%!

* Teeny Rin is bricked away.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*walks forth, slowly, palms clenched.*

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">She's more looking at the giant dogs and taking it in. o.o

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;It's alright. They've very intelligent. Maybe more than us. I don't think you're going to get chewed on like a hambone, brother.&quot; |3

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Don't be afraid... they are just stupid dogs.. you could probably kill them.. you have seen worse ,.. don't be afraid.. fear has no place in the heart of an Inquisitor... ''

* Max laughs, speaking in Common. &quot;Don't worry, Teria, I'm actually kind of glad. Do you know how how hard it would have been pretending that this wasn't my home?&quot; :3

TMG:<font color="#000000">Liatai, I -love- what you've done with this map. The VBL lines all conform to the grid, and you use a rough stone texture for the cave walls freely and organically, and at the same time, you use an identical at first glance, but only slightly -different- texture for the FOg of War.

TMG:<font color="#000000">I think you have found the perfect solution to people wanting organic shaped maps but can't do crazy VBL

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Y-you are?&quot; o.o

TMG:<font color="#000000">Got to show this to Railock.

VAE:<font color="#000000">wait, you can use textures for VBL?

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Yeah, I am.&quot; Headruffle, and he stands to look at the group with a smile. &quot;So! You made it!&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">No, texture for Fog of War

Miron:<font color="#000000">Visibly disturbed, the inquisitor walks forth. He is sweating slightly.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;With no shortage of trouble, yes. =w=&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;More or less completely intact..&quot; Tathi says, smirking.

* Thomas Lazarus offers a smile.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Indeed we have. Through...a bit more trials than we anticpated.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Good to see you.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;I blame Braxton Falls.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well-met once again, Max.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Haloo Herr Max! Terri saeed Hy vould like hyu! Hy taught her how to schoot!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Oh yes, we got a new minion too.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">I'm going to have to ask him how old he is one of these days. =3=

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">=w=

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Wave wave wave! :3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;I imagine you'll want to hear everything about what's going on. It's...quite a long story.&quot;

* Max blinks when Shankfang speaks up. &quot;So I see! What's your name, sir?&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Easy. Just make him shapeshift. It's an easy estimation from there.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">If you have the proper Knowledge Arcana check.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Or Nature check.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Whichever.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">I was talking about goofball. =w=;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Which one???

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Seriously. XP

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Point.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Shenkfang de Deffrider! Hy em movink from Akellon to Mazio, und met everyone in Braxton Falls.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Er, TO Akellon FROM Mazio.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">I actually stopped and thought for a moment. &quot;Wait. Does he mean Shank or... crap.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">:BB

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Vroom! And I'm Dragula, the Deffbike! But only Mrion is crazy enough to hear me!

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well, any friend of Terri's is a friend of mine.&quot; He smiles, and bows.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;So! This is...your hills hideaway that you wanted us to come to before meeting Salishea.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang returns the bow as best he can from his perch on his deffbike.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Terri was telling me about your journey. Well, in short. But there's plenty of time to tell the whole story later!&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">''You are Clunker. Seriously, 'Deffbike'? I have seen warlocks with less pretentious names. ''

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">No no no, my name is Dragula and I am a Deffbike. Seriously, you're so crazy you can't even understand my name.

Miron:<font color="#000000">What does he need a hideout for, anyways...

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;I suppose I'd best get formalities out of the way, then. Especially after what Terri's told me.&quot; He opens his arms. &quot;I am Maxissoren, human name Maximillian Toris, and I bid you welcome into my home.&quot;

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Hush, Miron! We don't need you getting paranoid about our ally!

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Come on, now. How many bandits have you impaled? ''

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Well met, Maissoren. =w=&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">maxissoren*

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Never going to get that right.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Haloo!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Stop trying.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Pleased to meet you.. anew.&quot; ^^;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Maxissoren. Indeed.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Well nice to meet you formally, Max. Now, to abandon all manner of manners and pretense, when do I get to start picking your brain for secrets of the arcane?&quot; Tathi asks with a playful smirk.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;The two large blink dogs behind me are Rockjaw and Skycaller, alphas of the Rockleaper pack. The smaller one is Leadpaws, and the little featherduster is Rufus. And the eavesdropping bard is my dear friend Tharkiel Sunaxissor.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Those who don't have one on their own must pick others's &quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Aelian exhales, rubbing his face with his hand. &quot;Lords, Tathi..&quot;

Tharky:<font color="#000000">Busted. =w=

Tharky:<font color="#000000">The storyteller waves.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Hey Tharky.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh! Tharky's here! I should've known.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">:.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Kan Hy pet de big doggies?&quot; :3

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Miron, either keep your snide little comments to yourself while we're with others, or I will make you regret it.&quot; Tathi says levelly.

Big Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">&quot;No,&quot; growls the big one to Shankfang.

Calm Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">The other one... blinks.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">What type of blink?

* Thomas Lazarus is bricked.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Alpha, Shank. He'll be the protective one..&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Aww...&quot;

Calm Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">Sniffsniff.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:o

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">WHOA. Hey! I want to do that!!! :O

Calm Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">&quot;She, small one.&quot;

Calm Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">&quot;Good day. Are you well?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*steps backwards, almost knocking into Swallowtail*

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hyu are so big und floofy!&quot;

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">The puppy trots up the big pooch. Wow. You're big.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Pet pet scritch pet!

Miron:<font color="#000000">*back against wall*

Miron:<font color="#000000">''That's better.. at least none of the buggers can sneak up me now.''

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Where there's a story, you'll find a storyteller,&quot; the human dragon chuckles.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Tharkiel.&quot; =w= &quot;Are you also a dragon?&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Come in, come in. My home is yours. Can I get you anything?&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Food? Drink? Explanations?&quot; |3

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Be nice, you two. Especially you, Amadre.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;The latter, please.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Iz dere zumvere safe Hy kan keep my Deffbike? Und zum goot tea, maybe?&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Mmm.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Could I take an extra large helping of the third order?&quot; Tathi asks.

Meany:<font color="#660033">I forgot Tharky had such a nice can.

Meany:<font color="#660033">|3

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I wouldn't mind a stiff drink... and explanations, too.&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">:P

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Amadre keeps circling the blink dogs.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Can?

VAE:<font color="#000000">where, what cans?

Tharky:<font color="#000000">&quot;No, I'm completely human.&quot; :3 &quot;Good to see all of you still in one piece!&quot;

RAM:<font color="#990000">Ass.

* Ghostwish shakes his can at VAE.

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Can I go see the puppies?&quot; :O

* VAE kicks

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Can Hy go, too?&quot; :O

* Dr. Hatari catches up.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Sure, I think they're by the fireplace. Not Kivan's, the guest one.&quot; :3 &quot;Would you like a tour before delving into the explaining, or would you prefer to wander and get your bearings yourself?&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">:D

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah...Let's have a tour first, I think.&quot;

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Puppies!!!&quot; :D

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Definitely a tour. Is it allright if we let the hounds wander?&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Of course. As you can tell, it's pretty dog-friendly around here.&quot; :3

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Brb again. Must hunt slippers. =w=

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;A tour maybe.. &quot;

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Ooh.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy guess puppies kan vait, actually. Hy don' vant to get lost vunderink around blindly.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">''I don't bloody see myself wandering 'bout here ever. ''

Big Blink Dog:<font color="#000000">Blink.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;All right. It's not so hard to navigate, as long as you stick to the main paths. The tunnels are all dragon-sized, after all.&quot; :3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang gives (Skycaller?) one last good scritching behind the ear before rolling forward.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Oops. x3

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Hang on while I update tokens.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Miron advances, sticking next to the wall.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:D I remembered right!

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">Blink. &quot;Problem, sir?&quot; |3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Falterpaw is a troll!

Miron:<font color="#000000">*grah*

Miron:<font color="#000000">*shuffles away as quick as he can*

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">Blink. |3

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">Why yes. Yes I am. |3

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;go away....&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;AARGH&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt watches Miron, snickering all the while.

RAM:<font color="#990000">BlinkTACKLE!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">This is just too fun to watch.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Bweeheehee...&quot;

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Ooo! Ooo! Let me help! :&gt;

* Skycaller barks at Falterpaw, and his tail immediately goes down, and he backs off, wagging his tail sheepishly.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*stans up*

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Aw.

* Skycaller gnaws on Falterpaw's ear.

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Tiamat's three arses...why... why did I end up here.''

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">But all the while, Gnogglebolt is watching the dogs around...blinking in and out of existence....

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">And he's getting

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;I hope you'll pardon the blink dogs, Mr. Steelsprocket. They were here first.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Anyway! As you can see, this is the main entryway and central chamber. Someday I hope to put more seating in here and make it a proper performing area, but it does well enough as is.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*A grunt that can be interpreted either way*

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt watches and listens intently as Max begins the tour.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Iz very nize.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Most of the glasswork in the windows and about is mine, though there are some exceptions. To the right is the glassworks, if you want to poke your head in there and say hi to Kivan.&quot; :3

Dragula the Deffbike:<font color="#990000">Vroom vroom, rumble.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hmm, don't mind if I do!&quot; Gnoglebolt follows down the tunnel.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;You can put your bike anywhere you like, Shankfang. As long as it isn't in a bed.&quot; :3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hokay, tenk hyu!&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;This is more of a finishing room -- the real heart of it is in here.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;That's... nice job there, nice...copper?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">..is that a pit in the floor, or just a dark smudge of soot?

Max:<font color="#000000">A dark smudge of soot. Seems this room sees quite a lot of heat -- and in fact it is very much warmer than the rest of the lair.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi has a look around.. and she does peek, DM. :&gt;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Dere iz no vue here...&quot;

You whisper to Ghostwish: Elf ping as you pass the dias.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">:.

Sszeyl whispers: Will save to keep Vargie from that info?

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Says you. They've been allowed to wander, remember? :P

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Does anyone speak Ignan here?&quot;

Ghostwish whispers: where is this dias? XD

You whisper to Meany: Sure.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Nein.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&#171; &#160;1d20+7 = 13 + 7 = 20&#160; <font color="#660033">&#187; Will save!

You whisper to Ghostwish: The large raised stone platform in the center of the main chamber.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;am -somewhat- fluent. I'm studying it now.&quot;

Player &quot;Sszeyl&quot; is not connected.Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;I know a few broken words, but I don't think I can carry on a conversation.&quot;

You whisper to Meany: Curses.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Hmm, maybe I'll consult you for when I'm learning it.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well, if you ever want to practice, just knock on the forge.&quot; :3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oooh, big furnace.&quot; Le peek~!

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Peek into the back. :.

Fire Elemental:<font color="#000000">A flaming face peeks back.

Miron:<font color="#000000">The inquisitor advances, curiosity winning over the fear and desire to clump up with others. &quot;Nice.. very nice..&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt goes to the big furnace, peeks is head inside the cavernous opening, and does indeed knock on the metal walls, letting it ring and echo in the chamber

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oh, haloo!&quot; :3

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;That's Kivan. His name is a little harder to pronounce if you don't speak Ignan.&quot; :3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah!&quot; Gnogglebolt pulls back slightl--by only slight-- as the heat wave reaches him. He -is- used to this kind of thing as a tinker.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Wave wave wave!

Fire Elemental:<font color="#000000">Peer.

Fire Elemental:<font color="#000000">Wave.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Whu-oh.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;I trust...he is not bound here?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;But serves you willingly? :B&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah...&quot; Gnogglebolt then stammers out a few works unknown to the others. In Ignan, it's an attempt at &quot;Hello, I am max friend&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Awesome! Aelian, we should convince a fire elemental to move into our home!&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Of course not. The circle just helps him stay connected to this plane. He's a better glass artist than I am.&quot; :3

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Tathi, we live in a tree.&quot; -.-;;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Mmm, toasty...&quot;

Fire Elemental:<font color="#000000">Fwooshcrackle. &quot;(Hello.)&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Isn't the temperature just a little too high for him? I mean... most of the shaping is done when parts are soft, but others have hardened up.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;You underestimate the control an elemental has over their --&quot; :.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh, that's how it goes...&quot; Gnogglebolt repeats the word hello, properly this time. he then continues, attempting at &quot;I half learn you speak&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;You're familiar with the techniques.&quot; :D

VAE:<font color="#000000">any results on that knowledge check

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Kivan is pretty clearly a fire elemental.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Or rather, what he -meant- to say was &quot;I've partially learned your language&quot;. But it came out as above.

Fire Elemental:<font color="#000000">Cracklechucklefsssh. &quot;(So I hear.)&quot;

Sszeyl whispers: &quot;From the elemental's expression, I think he's not saying that quite right.&quot;

Sszeyl whispers: &quot;But does this not anger you? Being so close to the opposite of your kin?&quot;

You whisper to Meany: Who is that said to? :. I am confused.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Bloody well I am! I played with red-hot glass chunks as a kid.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt nods, and tries to say one more thing. He -means- &quot;If we have time, I'd like to learn more&quot;, but it comes out something like &quot;If time want learn more&quot;

RAM:<font color="#990000">Bears do not attend any continuous services of worship. They are ready to kill at all hours of the week.

Sszeyl whispers: Vargie.

RAM:<font color="#990000">Sorry, the knowledge check result made me remember this.

You whisper to Meany: A hot wave of crackling rage begins to wash over you.

Sszeyl whispers: &quot;I see. You have not quite abandoned your rage yet.&quot;

Sszeyl whispers: &quot;Want to talk about it?&quot;

You whisper to Meany: Silence, puppet. The rage intensifies...

Sszeyl whispers: &quot;I see. You're endangering us through your rising of the blood pressure again. One moment.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Suddenly, the Seal flares, and Sszeyl's expression blankens.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Fuck.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi glances over at Sszeyl. &quot;Oh dear. Is he allright?&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">:D ! &quot;If we have time later, I'd love to talk with you about it! You probably know gnomish techniques I've only just attempted to glean from old texts --&quot; His head snaps in Sszeyl's direction. &quot;... the spirit?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Sszeyl! Answer! Hell, and just..&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Vargie needed to calm down. His rage was begining to effect blood pressure.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oh, so hyu're hokay now?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Quite.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;*Phew* It looked like he's to take over.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Goot, goot.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;... hmm. I should have known. Being in the lair of one of the grandchildren of one of his attempted vanquishers'. Let's continue, shall we?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Lucky you. If he did i'd have had to wrack you. &quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Let us continue with the tour. The dragon is at peace for the moment.&quot;

* Max pats the forge (with his bare hand O_o). &quot;(Thank you for the indulgence, *fire elemental name difficult to type*.)&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*turns to Max* &quot;Old texts? May I inquire who wrote them?&quot;

* Fire Elemental bows its head and steps back into the forge.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Bai!&quot; Wave wave wave! :3

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Right then, this way to the guest chambers and gallery.&quot; :3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt waves to the elemental, and tries one last thing. Crackgruushhfwoomflare; meant to say &quot;I might return&quot;, and he actually siad...well, he did actually say that, but with an atrocious accent.

Edaric:<font color="#000000">&quot; I can't believe I'm touring a dragon's lair. &quot; o.o

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;So, Max.. what has my senses tingling about that dias of yours?&quot; Tathi asks.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">He turns and follows Max out.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Miron stays in the furnace for a short while more.. just glancing around.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;I'm old enough to know not to talk about the security measures in your home.&quot; |3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy know! So kool, huh Ed?&quot;

Mistwalker:<font color="#000000">Slurp? o.o ... Oh hi!

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;I wouldn't be prepared for Aross to come visit if there wasn't.&quot; :3

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;-- Oh, sorry, that's my brother. Arosstherajix. Human name Brian.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;GET OFF ME BLOODY DOG&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Kan Hy hef zum?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+0 = 15 + 0 = 15&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Strength

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Wuff. ^_^

Miron:<font color="#000000">*wipes off*

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Of course.&quot; :3 &quot;I'll set the kettle on in the sitting room over here.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Arosstherajix...I see.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hi, Terri.&quot; :3

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hiiiii!&quot; :D

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Tenk hyu!&quot;

Blink Puppy 2:<font color="#000000">Yap yap yap yap yap!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh, Hello again Terri--ohlittlepuppies!&quot; :D

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Max gets some pettinz.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Stupid slobbering beasts 

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi absolutely giggles at the sight of the puppies.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy hear puppies!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Cute.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:D

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hi Terri!&quot; Pet pet pet pet pet!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt approaches the nearest one calmly and slowly, and holds out a hand to see if they'll have a sniff and let him pet.

* Max reaches straight into the lit fireplace to fetch the kettle. &quot;One of many benefits of being a gold dragon. Complete immunity to flame.&quot; |3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Dat must be konvenient.&quot;

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Ooo! ooo! Puppies! Hi little guys!

Blink Puppy 4:<font color="#000000">The pups are all over the place -- literally. Teleporting, blinking, lick lick lick wag wag...

Frostfur:<font color="#000000">Mama watches from the couch.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;The six doors behind you lead to guest rooms. Eventually, I hope to expand this area, make it a little more hospitable to guests of all species and sizes.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">Which is why the short inquisitor doesn't ever approach closer than the entrance.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh! They've already got their ability down pat, I see...&quot; Gnogglebolt comments as the puppies blink and lick around him, too quickly for him to pet. D'aww, they think it's a game. Well, that's fine. |3

Vuz:<font color="#660033">:o

Vuz:<font color="#660033">They're so hyperactive!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt engages with one of them of trying to quickly reach out and touch one of the play-bowing puppies before he blinks, which, of course, Gnogglebolt is never fast enough for.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang is

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">!

Blink Puppy 2:<font color="#000000">Sometimes they do stop blinking long enough to be pet. Sometimes. =3=

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang has a high dex!

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Would you like to continue the tour while the kettle boils, or would you rather have some puppy playtime?&quot; |3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Puppies!&quot; :D

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;I think you in particular will be interested in the next set of rooms, Tathi.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oh?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Best to continue..&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt extracts himself from the puppyplay.

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Dangit puppies, quit being so hard to catch! &gt;:O

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Yes, tour, indeed. |3 &quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Aww, okay.

Shankfang the Deffrider: <font color="#990000">&quot;Hy vill be back, puppies.&quot;

<font color="#990000"> :3

Miron:<font color="#000000">This time, the inquisitor walks away from the room as fast as he can.

Miron:<font color="#000000">No des.. ARGH

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">But not before getting plowed over by a puppy retreating faster than he is. :P

Miron:<font color="#000000">Miron apparently walked into a blink dog.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;The library, to your south.&quot; :3

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">ackpth

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Stupid fucking dogs..&quot;

* Dr. Hatari was click-dragging during fatcat lap-invasion impact jump. ^^;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*STARES* at Amadre

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi beams. &quot;If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go raid a dragon's hoard now.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt's mouth falls open. &quot;Library! Oh, I hope to have time to look through that...&quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">-.-;;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">OH! And that reminds me!

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">Blink. &quot;Problem, sir?&quot; |3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Dat iz a lot uf books...&quot;

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;I, ah, would advise you to watch your language. There are pups about.&quot; |3

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Sir Falterpaw, I award you the award of trolling. :&gt;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Of note, Gnogglebolt -did- buy those four books mentioned before leaving Reed, Liatai (determine cost whenever you like), and was reading them at night and in the morning when he was not actually working.

Skycaller:<font color="#000000">Blink.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy hef to brink Talfeera here zumday.&quot; |3

Skycaller:<font color="#000000">Gnaw.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;You damn sure there's a problem...&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;They keep popping up in front, or on...-&quot;

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah-heh.... just playing, sister...&quot; =3='

Miron:<font color="#000000">O_O

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oh hello Tharky!&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Haloo floofy Skycaller!&quot;

Skycaller:<font color="#000000">&quot;Play in a way that doesn't disturb Maxissoren's friends.&quot;

Skycaller:<font color="#000000">Gnaw gnaw.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Pettinz.

Falterpaw:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah-heh...&quot; =w=;;;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt takes a moment to skim over the library's selection. :.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Kor, you stay here. No rat fur on the dragon's books.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;GET. OFF. ME.&quot; &#171; &#160;1d20+0 = 16 + 0 = 16&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Strength again

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;And that room there is your personal chamber, I assume? =w=&quot;

* Tharky is sitting on a pile of cushions in the corner, reading a book. Smile and wave. :3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;You've certainly a lovely lair.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Much better than mine.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">He goes as quickly as he can, wishing he could spend more time, before rejoining everyone else.

Kor:<font color="#7F00FF">Wha- HEY! Don't leave me here! There's crazy blinking things everywhere! Don't leeeave meeee!

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;If you wish to phrase it that way.&quot; |3 &quot;That would be the guest bathroom.&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">someone needs to roll strength for Amadre

VAE:<font color="#000000">Miron tried to throw her off

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Ah.&quot;

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">The hell, get off me! &gt;:( &#171; &#160;1d20+3 = 17 + 3 = 20&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; strength!

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well, I've been working on it for about thirty years.&quot; |3

Max:<font color="#000000">He's clearly pleased, though.

Meany whispers: Reminder about Cadamon's sending, and Barbie letter+ sending stone.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*heaves unsuccessfully*

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Haloo Rockjav, haloo Terky! Hy don' tink Hy hef introduced myself to hyu yet.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh, that reminds me, once the tour's over, I have something for you.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">not sure if seeing a map error..VBL goes out a ways, but there's rock texture there..

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Get...bloody...off..&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Your feline friend gave me a letter to hand over to you.&quot;

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Rrrrr!!!

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+3 = 14 + 3 = 17&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; strength!

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+0 = 10 + 0 = 10&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Strength

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">I think.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy em Shenkfang, de Deffrider. Hy'm de nev guy uf de group.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">Actually, it's a vworping zone. :B

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">The puppy -tosses- the rude gnome! :O

Rockjaw:<font color="#000000">Gruff.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Apparently, the dog outclasses the inquisitor.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*OWCH*

Meany:<font color="#660033">It's VWORPING TIME.

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">Oh crap big dog- backpeddle like a boss!

Miron:<font color="#000000">*rubbing his head from wall impact* &quot;Fuck you. and fuck you sick kin.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">H'okay.

Tharky:<font color="#000000">&quot;Nice to meet you.&quot; :3 &quot;Max already gave you my name, I think -- Tharkiel Sunaxissor. Tharky's just fine.&quot; :3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Vworping zone, then. moving close, standing by for vworp

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Sorry. I haven't paid any attention for like an hour.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I'm back. =w=;

* Meany pats.

TMG:<font color="#000000">...hello. o.o;

Meany:<font color="#660033">It's okay.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Not much happened

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Yah, he deed.&quot; :3

VAE:<font color="#000000">Just Miron being terrorized by dogs

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;There's just one more spot left on the tour...&quot; The passage slopes steeply upward and curves.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oh, gotta go! Bai!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Hot diggity dragons that's pretty. :v&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">It opens up into an outdoor basin. There are cliffwalls around the grassy area, creating a natural courtyard.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

* Max beams at Sszeyl's praise visibly. :3 !

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;So pretty...&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...-Very- nice. This...this is beautiful.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Wait... so there... &quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;The pool took about four years to make, all told.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">:o

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Oven. ^^;;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Wow. Did you make that, Max?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+5 = 7 + 5 = 12&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Arch + Eng ... is this a natural feature, or did someone make al of this

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt looks into the pool of water. &quot;...Now THAThas to be one of the most colorful things I've ever seen. Absolutely magnificent.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">0_o

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Iz dat a garden Hy see over dere?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;And I've seen a few chaos generators go haywire.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;With some help from Aross, Dad, and Grandfather. The metal and stonework is Aross'. Dad and Grandfather helped with the enchantment to make the whole thing fire-resistant.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Rill's toolbox..&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;It does no good to scare off intruders and accidentally melt years of work in one stroke.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oh Max. I am so commissioning you to come do the glasswork for our home. You simply must do the windows!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Agreed.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">:3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt looks up to Max. &quot;Might not be something I could call home, but you live in a trulyabode, Maxissoren.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy definitely hef to brink Talfeera here zum day. She vould luv hall uf dis.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Are.. intruders a big problem?&quot; ^^;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;This... hell.. I don't think we had anything like this... even in Kemmer...&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt looks up to Max. &quot;Might not be something I could call home, but you live in a truly splendid abode, Maxissoren.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Freaking missing chevrons. Can never hit them right. :x

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Yes, I hate to pry, but do you have trouble with your home being invaded?&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Draconic motto. Always be prepared for potential hoardstealers.&quot; |3

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Though, if you're asking because you're looking for work...&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Troof.

* Thomas Lazarus waves a hand in the air rapidly.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Thatsquitealright.&quot; =w=;;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Max, vould it be hokay for me to brink my fiancee here zumtime in de future? Hy tink hyu vould like her.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;That's a shame, there was an issue Falterpaw brought to my attention that I think a group of adventurers like yourself would be well-suited to taking care of nearby.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hmm. I must say, I am intrigued at the idea of working for you, but we do have other engagements, unfortunately...ah welll. perhaps sometime in the future.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Vork?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well, I suppose it can't hurt to hear about what it is first.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Ooh. :.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Depends.. how quickly do you think a group of our caliber could handle it? We do have pressing matters, what with a red dragon all up in Sszeyl's brain and what not.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus sighs and abandons hope of avoiding the detour.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">We're never going to get back home. =3=

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">There's xp and loot to be had! You shut your whore mouth. :P

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Indeed.. what sort of work?&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Very shortly -- but we can talk about it over tea if you're interested.&quot; :3 &quot;The kettle should be hot now.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Though yes, as Tathi says, we -do- still have Sszeyl to deal with. But I'm willing to hear what it is, regardless.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well.. we can spare at most a day or two.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Sure. If indeed the tour is over...we do have much to talk about.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;It's nothing that serious. I think there's just a summoning circle gone haywire in a nearby cavern. The dogs have already done the detective work and scouting, even!&quot; :3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">LOOOOOT!

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I see..&quot; :.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*owch* &quot;TATHI. IF THOSE FUCKING DOGS OF YOURS ROLL OVER ME ONE MORE TIME...&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy hef been itchink to schoot zumddink...&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oof! Sorry, Miron.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah, haywire magic. Of course, of course.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Smug little anti-magic gnome. :B

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Allright, enough's enough..&quot; Tathi says, and grips the ring on her finger.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Summoning circle gone haywire?&quot;

Amadre:<font color="#7F00FF">:O! :O! Miron smells like bacon!!!

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Why would there be one in a cavern?&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus frowns at Tathi.

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;These hills are full of very old magic, Miron.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;... You could actually just encourage them to stop, too, you know.&quot; =3=

Leadpaws:<font color="#000000">Zzz...

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;But.. circles have to be maintained..&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Thing is, he's the one agitating them. He keeps running into them.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Pet pet for Leadpaws.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Your arse I do.&quot;

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Move over, Lumi, I'm going to stretch out.&quot; :3

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Okay!&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus gives her a flat look like he doesn't believe that. =3=

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Pet pet for Mistwalker.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Need to find token, one moment...

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Allright then, in that case, erase all incidents of Miron being 'tackled' by any of the hounds during this visit, on the grounds of VAE godmoding characters that are not his.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Because they haven't.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Okay. =3=

VAE:<font color="#000000">yeah

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Hi, Puppies!

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Would you mind fetching some tea? Mistwalker can get anything else our guests want, but she's been having trouble with the teabox.&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">except the eternally overlapping tokens

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Sure!&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">Which I can't bloody move myself

VAE:<font color="#000000">Godmodding, tell that to your grandma

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Puppies! Hold still! I need to groom you!

Max:<font color="#000000">&quot;Make yourselves comfortable.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">It's called misplacing tokens. It's also called a map explorer. Use it.

* Max stretches... and...

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Oooh, comfy couch.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Misplacing tokens half a dozen times. Yeah.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Assuming the lotus position by the fire. =w=

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Warm.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Incoming dragon!

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">By the way, you're not fooling me. Twice you intentionally moved miron's token to amadre. :\

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Oi.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Yeah, intentionally

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">So drop it.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">It's sort of a really, really, really well-established precedent. Nobody's at fault. Just play. Holy shit this is a childish subject and I am already in an abominable mood.

* VAE drops nothing. My arms are bare, and my ass would be too

* VAE moons Ghost

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Mm. Not often I get to stretch out in front of guests.&quot; A very looooooong dragon, easily fifty feet long, is now coiled on the large cushion by the fire.

* Liatai looks up from typing narration.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Oh no.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">.... why are we fighting about this, really? ^^;

* Meany dives into the bunker.

* Thomas Lazarus blanches a little. owo;;

RAM:<font color="#990000">Who knows.

* VAE dunno.. just somehow happened

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt's eyes go very, very wide as he sees Max's true form.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;...&quot; :.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">A dragon. A real, full-grown dragon. Right in front of him.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;So that's why the Northern beast is a Gold Dragon.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;You're quite beaufitul.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Wow. There's another sight to add to my list. First a really big copper dragon, and now a really long gold dragon.&quot; She says, and then giggles. &quot;Wonder if I'll ever see a fat bronze or something.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">Somehow, after seeing so many massive dogs, Miron isn't that excited.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Biiiiiig...&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hmm...&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Not an illustration in a text, not a small-ish person sized one. A real one, in all its glory. ANd even though Gnogglebolt knows this still won't compare to Salishea, he can't help but be somewhat awed.

* Maxissoren smiles, waving a taloned paw toward the couches. &quot;Go ahead, settle in.&quot; :3 &quot;Oh, yes. Before I forget.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I wonder.. do you do glasswork in this shape, too? I seen a few tools that.. wouldn't quite fit into hands..even those of an ogre.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt goes to take a seat.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">The majestic impression may be sullied somewhat by the fact that the... fifty-foot-long dragon is handing you a package clearly sized and wrapped by humanoid hands.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">X3

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Your message from Barbarus.&quot; :3

Miron:<font color="#000000">*casts Detect Magic on it*

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Oodles.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oh gods, what is that cat sending- really Miron? Really?&quot;

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">More than you have spell slots.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+15 = 11 + 15 = 26&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Spellcraft.

Miron:<font color="#000000">What the hell is in there

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi opens hers.

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">It's only one.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Tathi.. this thing has more magic than a shitty mule sold by a clever sorcerer.&quot;

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">&quot;Hey guys! Bought these sending stone from Zailicious. He says that the holders of the two can each use Sending once appiece, not sure if that counts the replies. I'm no wizardly person. He also got me a new eye! It's rainbow coloured and magical, I love it. Anyway, asking Maximum to carry one of them to you guys for me, if you're reading this, I guess he agreed! I'm doing okay. Got a couple part-time jobs to keep the rent paid, and earn a living. I'm a matchmaker now! Already arranged two courtships! &quot;But I'm also recruiting for the Guardians, since being alone with Lucy, while fun, makes it hard to chat people up. She seems to attract the mashochists, because all her customers get punched at some point, but none of them really mind! Already got a potential recruit who has taken a liking to me. He's from the islands that Swallowtai l-Can't think of a nickname for you yet, puddin'.- says she's from! Dartane's part of Amaya, right? I'm sorry, but I can't remember the specifics. I'm working my fingers to the bone just getting all this said and done. The foreman won't let me near where the shcool's being built anymore, cause I keep causing mayhem. But it's so much fun! So I can't tell you how that's going. The info would be out of date by the time you got the letter. Oh, and if you haven't already, you might want to read the back of this note. I put something there in special ink, but I'm not saying what.~&quot; With love, A Pimp Named Barbie's Dreamhouse. ((Because, why not?!))

* Maxissoren turns his head toward Miron. &quot;I do. Though it does take a lot of finangling. Did you happen to notice the large tools in the forge?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt facepalms at the mention of Barbarus being banned from the construction site of his school. He should've known that would happen, the darned catfolk...

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi quirks an eyebrow and scrunches up her nose. &quot;Wait. He's.. recruiting?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;I am giving that foreman a raise when I get back.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I did... and yes, that's why I wondered. Impressive skill - it must be so much harder than with hands.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Hmm..&quot; o.o;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">suddenly, bard and ninja. XD

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;And yes...recruiting? That's odd. I didn't tell him anything like that last time I saw him before I left.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Vo's Barbarus?&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">The DM forgot them. x3

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Going to check the back?

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Ah, right, you haven't met him. He's a catfolk who adventured with us for a while.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Of course.

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">&quot;My dear Grandmother Baba Yaga. Though you were banished to the Iron Woods for cannibalism so long ago know that I still labor for the lifting of your sentence. The family suffers under the reign of your soft-hearted sister, and just last week her kindness ended with Hagia Sophia being killed. It is time this foolishness was brough to an end.&quot; -With Love, Saint Nicholas Claus. - - (This note will self destruct in five...four...)

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Ah, Hy see.&quot;

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Boom!

Whoever just got to that part of the letter has just had the ink explode in their face, creating a cloud of rainbow gas. When it clears, they, their clothes, and their gear have been recolored into pastel shades, with their hair being the same, but with a heavy dose of glitter. Their face has been made up in Kabuki style paint, and every so often, you can see rainbow cat pawprints on their person. They've been scented a variety of honeyed and barbecued meats, and if you care to lick them animal friends, you'll find they taste like it too. Scrawled in an almost elvishly curved series of letters written in chalky yellow on their back is the phrase: CHUMP.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Wait a minute. If there's magic on that, and it's from Barbarus--&quot;

Blink Puppy 2:<font color="#000000">:O

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">So, yes, really, Tathi. :P

Blink Puppy 2:<font color="#000000">PUPPY ATTACK

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt stares at whoever was reading the letter.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">And he bursts out laughing.

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Tathi.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;BWEE HEE HEE HEE HEEEEE!&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I told ya, Tathi.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy hope Hy get to meet dis Barbarus! Hy like him already!&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">The inquisitor has a wide smile.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;That damnable catfolk! --Excuse me.-- Always up to his tricks!&quot;

* Maxissoren chuckles, as well, politely trying to keep his voice down.

Blink Puppy 1:<font color="#000000">Licklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklicklick!

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi just rolls her eyes, twitches her ring, and dispels the whole effect. &quot;Eh, I knew it would happen. He's predictable like that.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;See ..Max? This is what happens every time noone listens.. this was just a better case.&quot;

* Dr. Hatari can has fresh baked fish. *nom* =3=

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">In the package with the letter, you find a one pound rock that looks like it's never been worked.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Ooh, I'm going to grab some nommables, myself.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Ack, get off, you silly puppy! I've already got two crazy dogs to deal with.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;So, why didn't you counterspell it?&quot;

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">Like I said.

Barbarus:<font color="#660033">More than you have spell slots.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Actually..

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Yes. Back up. Tathi counter-spelled. &gt;:)

Meany:<font color="#660033">GM? :B

VAE:<font color="#000000">nope

Meany:<font color="#660033">Retconning allowed?

VAE:<font color="#000000">she dispelled it after the thing

VAE:<font color="#000000">not a counterspell

VAE:<font color="#000000">And given she never bothered to check what the spell is..

TMG:<font color="#000000">yeah, there -is- a difference between dispelling and counterspelling. That said, Tathi mayhave to dispel each effect one at a time.

TMG:<font color="#000000">And if there's say, 100 of them, that'll take some time.

VAE:<font color="#000000">I think there's strong evidence she didn't

TMG:<font color="#000000">Oh, -everyone- KNOWS what spell it was

TMG:<font color="#000000">even Gnogglebolt can recognize it by now

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">-.-;;; okay, if we're seriously going into this, it's dropped.

* Thomas Lazarus sighs.

Meany:<font color="#660033">:x

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Well.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Sorry.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Atleast he's doing much better than I expected.&quot;

* VAE disapproves sudden retcons. that's all

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I was worried, after that last news.&quot; =w=;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Sszeyl glances over at Swallowtail. =w=

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Aaaanyway.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;He was doing better a few weeks ago.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;He's keeping in high spirits, at least.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Can't know what's going on now... &quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;That news, too.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;He said there's a sending stone in there?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Ask him.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">The templar grudgingly tolerates the embrace of lycanthropy. Or Weaselthropy. =3=

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Whatever. =3=;;;;;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Mustiledthropy.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">What.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well, with that out of the way.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">This inquisitor... has a very hard time with that. Weres are beasts...

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang doesn't know Barbarus is a were.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Mmkay, readin' up.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Getting hard to distinguish what's actually been said aloud and what's a semi-canon internal thought. :x

* Dr. Hatari smites fatcat off the desk using his katana. Thanks, graduation present daisho. =3=

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;So, with that out of the way, and us all settled in....what's the first thing you'd like to talk about, Maxissoren?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Protip; look for quotes.

TMG:<font color="#000000">I -know- that meany. I was commenting on the flood of such unquoted comments.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Mustelanthropy. :P

Meany:<font color="#660033">:P

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;First thing? Would be what would you like to eat or drink. Mistwalker is waiting.&quot; |3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Do you have walnuts? :.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Um..&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Tea, und maybe zum fruits?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Something sweet would be nice. I'm not picky.&quot; {:3

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Whatever you have... And I wouldn't object to some ale..&quot;

* Maxissoren nods to Mistwalker, who is listening attentively.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Do you like pineapple? I bought some from Resca a few days ago. From what I've heard, Calaserian is mad about them. They're delicacies in the north when they can get them.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Ohh. That would be great.&quot; :3

Miron:<font color="#000000">Pine.. apple?

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Pine what? :.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Pine... apple?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">How do you barbarians not know what pineapple is. =3= *tea sip*

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Also, glance at Swallowtail remider. How she taking the Dartane comment.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy hef never heard uf dat before. May Hy try zum?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I have seen more pines in my life than that dog has fleas. &quot;

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">She's too stunned by the whole 'dragon O_O' factor to have read the letter.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;But pines bear nuts, at most. Tasty, but not sweet at all.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">I assumed the letter was read aloud. =w=;

* Thomas Lazarus pats Swallowtail's shoulder gently. |3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot; Psst. Take a seat.&quot;

* Swallowtail sits. O.O

Mistwalker:<font color="#000000">Trit trot trit trot trit trot.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Miron keeps as far from the dogs as possible.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">I would probably be more stunned, but well.. I've been beaten down by things as big as him before. =w=;; And we did meet a little dragon earlier.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;I would imagine you have some questions regarding the family and such business.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Speaking of. Thomas blinks about.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..Oh. Where did Terri get off to?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;A bit.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Mostly.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Is Salishea your actual aunt?&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;She's in the larder with Mistwalker. The dogs are talented, bless them, but it takes proper hands to use a knife properly.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well, things do make a lot more sense about your family. Not just some dragon ancestry, you're all true dragons, aren't you?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Oh. Of course!&quot; ^^;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Which is why Eberron gave use the Spare Hand.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Makes me wonder.. It's not that often dragons choose to stick around people, much less in places like Castleton...&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Why do you?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;And indeed, what Sszeyl asked. Does your family have any actual relation to Salishea?&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;No, Salishea is not our aunt. You wouldn't be asking if you were familiar with the taboo on electrum dragons, but that's a political mire that would take far too long to explain. However, she and Grandfather have remained close friends since the war, and so we've grown up knowing her as such. A false great-aunt, you could say.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Ah.&quot;

Sszeyl whispers: &quot;Does your kind have a similar taboo about mixing colours?&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;If by 'we' you mean those of us who live at the Pearldust part-time, then yes, we are all true dragons.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Nyoro~n. {:3

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Actually, not directly relating to your family, but I am hoping you know something of the copper dragons of the Elsaeothi region. I've been tracking one particular specimen for a long time now.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;There's Harvestasya, but she's... well, a half-sister. Mother isn't terribly fond of her.&quot; |3

You whisper to Meany: '''Why are you bothering me, have your conversation. I'm trying to listen.'''

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;As to why we choose to reside in Castleton... why do you, Inquisitor?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I... Mainly that I was sent there due to a sudden lack of inquisitors.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Few guys retiring.. a few never having to..&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..Perhaps the other Castleton dragons retired.&quot; |3

* Maxissoren chuckles.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*snerk*

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;Here we are!&quot; Terri and dog return with a platter of fruit, beverages, shelled walnuts, and a box of tea.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Say..&quot; :.

Sszeyl whispers: &quot;Because. Leaving you to brood with no way to influence the world is cruel.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Oo.&quot; *3*

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;But well... that doesn't answer my question.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:D

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Why are there inquisitors in Castleton?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Don't get me wrong. The Torises are an exemplary family that hasn't been giving the Mace any trouble.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus takes a platter of snacks gratefully. :9

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Do you have to even ask?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Mm.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Thank you, Terri.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Tenk hyu Terri, Mistvalker!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Om nom walnuts.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">=w=

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Fruit get!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Tea get!

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Oh yes, and thank you Mistwalker.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi rolls her eyes. &quot;Yes, they're such a nice family only because they don't give your organization any trouble. They totally don't help the community or anything..&quot; Tathi mutters.

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Hi~

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Don't combine walnuts and pineapple. You'll give your mouth a sting. =3=

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Play?

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Big C is, in some aspects, one of the worst crime dens I know. There's... even with the people we have, so much just slides under our watch..&quot;

Frostfur:<font color="#000000">Hi. You're not after my pups, are you?

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Nonono. :O

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Did not know that. :.

Vuz:<font color="#660033">I after play. :O

Liatai:<font color="#000000">You learn something new every day. :3

Blink Puppy 1:<font color="#000000">Play! :D

Vuz:<font color="#660033">:D

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">one's base, one's acidic. Usually doesn't occur to people after the fact though. XP

RAM:<font color="#990000">Pineapple is actually very rough on the human mouth, too.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Walnuts alone are usually enough to make my mouth sting. I think it's some fungus, as most of them don't

Tokens dropped onto map 'Hills of Gilforen'Renia:<font color="#FF0000">Hey, that third one's mine. No touching. =wQ *bricked*

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">the fact the walnuts gnash your mouth up abit right before the acidicity of the pineapple sinks in doesn't help either. XD

Meany:<font color="#660033">The only pineapple I like.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Is pineapple soda.

Meany:<font color="#660033">=w=

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Miron, something slips by every large collection of people--&quot; Gnoggebolt shoots a knowing eye to Sszeyl as well, &quot;--It's a simple fact of life. No government or organization can completely control everything That's why there's so many openings for independant adventurers like us, after all.&quot;

* Maxissoren plucks a whole pineapple from the platter and nibbles at it.

* Thomas Lazarus eats a pineapple slice.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;If everything could be controlled, people like us wouldn't be doing what we do.&quot;: Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Walnuts~

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Thank you Terri, thank you Mistwalker.&quot; |3

Terri:<font color="#000000">&quot;You're welcome.&quot; :3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;As I was just saying..&quot; :9

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;It is sad that so much gets by, but that's why we're here.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Having to rely on ragtag groups to deal with criminals isn't exactly admirable, Gnogglebolt.&quot;

Mistwalker:<font color="#000000">&quot;Wrrrcrummm.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Max, do you mind if I ask how old you are?&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Wait! Wait! I want to guess.&quot; :&gt;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+18 = 18 + 18 = 36&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; Knowledge Arcana!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang snacks away at the fruits he grabbed himself. Betcha didn't know he's actually vegitarian, didja?

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Speaking of ragtag groups..&quot; :9

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Maybe not, but that's the reality.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">How close does she get, approximating size, scales, and eyes? :&gt;

* Maxissoren tilts his head. &quot;And I thought humans considered it rude to ask someone's age.&quot; :P

You whisper to Ghostwish: Young adult, definitely.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;It is! That's why I asked permission.&quot; :B

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Let's let Tathi have her guess first.&quot; :3

Vuz:<font color="#660033">Tussle pounce play jump roll tail boof.

Tathi whispers: how many years? XP

* Thomas Lazarus nibbles pineapple slices. |3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">It just occurs to me.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">We are nothing compared to him.

You whisper to Ghostwish: Somewhere between 51 and 100.

* Thomas Lazarus glances aside to Swallowtail and pauses.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">We're like his baby sister's friends.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;... Are you okay?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">And he's just entertaining the neighborhood kids.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Well, it's still appropiate to breathe fire on them for asking permission to ask-&quot; Tathi says, shooting a mischievious grin at Thomas, &quot;- but while you're definitely a young adult, I'm going to place your age somewhere in the range of 51 and 100 years.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;We *should* be able to deal on our own. Sure enough, getting hired help for extended operations when lacking personnel is a good thing.. like the arrest of the Sarganos... but relying on outsiders all the time *turns head side to side* That's just sloppy planning.&quot;

* Swallowtail starts! o.o

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Arguably we're lower animals than him.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">... Like talking blink dogs ... ;3

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">&quot;I fine.&quot; o.o

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">So it's not that weird.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">We live in an RPG fantasy world, deal with it. :P

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">And back IC...

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot; Just checking. &quot; He smiles.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;That would be the range of young adulthood in dragonkind, yes.&quot; |3

VAE:<font color="#000000">who was that to?

TMG:<font color="#000000">-you- :P

VAE:<font color="#000000">I deal with it. Miron doesn't

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt shugs. &quot;Such is life.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">well, it is a tricky concept to grasp. We live in a world of humans, where terribly tyrants have tried to prove themselves better than everyone, when the truth was they were just as human as everyone else. In D&amp;D, these false dreams could be very real. Elder Wyrm vs peasent with whooping cough, go!!!

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi smirks. &quot;76.&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">XD

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Seventy-six?&quot; ^^; &quot;Sszeyl's older than that.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Really? Only seventy six?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Thomas doesn't actually have any grasp of you bizarre ancient beasts. Monsters, all of you. :B *bricked*

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Overshot, I'm afraid.&quot; :3 &quot;My fifty-third birthday was in Boccon last year.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Really?&quot; :O &quot;You sure do grow up fast..&quot; {:3

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Darnit!! I just knew I was going too far! It's your scales. They're already turning color, you lucky dragon you.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Darn. That might mean my question can't be answered.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;I can try, at least. Grandfather is quite the historian.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">:v

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Miron, congratulations.

* Thomas Lazarus smirks.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">You're still the fossil of this group.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I was just wondering.. if you've been around a long time, and you're a bard by profession, if you might've heard any tales about my Dad or his adventuring.&quot; {:3

Miron:<font color="#000000">*laughs*

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..He was always actually kind of tight-lipped about some things. And I'm not sure I believed him half the time. He is kind of excitable.&quot; =w=

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Really Thomas? I thought your Dad would never let you hear the end of - oh. Wow. That is a surprise.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Sir Alexander Lazarus.&quot; The dragon chuckles. &quot;You would be best served asking Tharky about his exploits. He's the storyteller, after all.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;He can talk all day. He just chooses what to talk about.&quot; =w=;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Mmmmm, teeeeaaaaa...

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;The slaying of Arithurkearvrak is a favorite among his copper audience, I think.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">''Bloody clever.. dodging my questions ...''

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">It's called the Socratic method, dear inquisitor. =3= *brick'd*

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Arthur?! &gt;:O *bricked*

Sszeyl whispers: Any sudden rage from the brain dragon?

You whisper to Meany: No. It's the green dragon whose head is stuffed in the Lazarus den. :P

You whisper to Dr. Hatari: I just pulled a name out of thin air. It may be the green dragon whose head is in the Lazarus den. :B

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I see.. I might, at that. Although I was hoping to indulge myself by being told my a dragon.&quot; He grins a little, despite himself.

Thomas Lazarus whispers: Absolutely fine, of course.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;I'd be able to indulge better if it was put to a song.&quot; |3

Thomas Lazarus whispers: I don't know his backstory either. I just embellished Shoja's for Tom's stories. ^^;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi blinks, and thinks a moment. &quot;Wow. Now I can't get the image of a singing dragon out of my head.&quot; |)

You whisper to Dr. Hatari: Woo, improvised collaborative backstories! X3

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;'Dragons at Castleton' would be a good song to try, too.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Maybe once this question-and-answer session is done, you'll get to see it in reality. I do know a few Elven ballads.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi beams! &quot;Any drinking songs??&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Though... I figure that you must get good business on potions, given the population , especially the arcane district's needs..&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;What kind of bard would I be if I didn't know drinking songs?&quot; :P

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Really Tathi? Out of all the songs a dragon could sing for you, you want to hear a drinking song?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;The stuff in our branch's inventory must bring you a good thousand gold pieces every year.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">x3

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Well of course! Can you imagine him booming Wine Nose!?&quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I feel I have to beg the question then.. is your entire family like you?&quot; He asks teasingly.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi grins. &quot;Of course not.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;My mother is twice as mean and my dad is twice as crazy.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NK2Lx_gSr5k

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Aelian's smirk vanishes. Oh god I'm going to die.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Speaking of potions, if you need any, I may have them in storage, or given a day, I could create one.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Nothing springs to mind.. but thank you.&quot; :3

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;The alchemical glassware and potion bottle trade paid for at least half the library.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I thought you just made the bottles.... you must show me your lab, in that case.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I... haven't been able to finish my training properly, but I still recall a thing or two.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Afraid I can't indulge that, unfortunately. The lab is in the off-limits tunnels. No need for well-meaning passersby and curious pups to accidentally hurt themselves.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">o.o.. there are some seriously disturbing images in that music video. XD

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah well...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Oh well..&quot; ^^; &quot;..I suppose we should mind our pacing besides. Speaking of which.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy hef a favor Hy vould like to ask, actually...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;You mentioned something about a rogue summoning circle giving you trouble..?&quot; :.

Miron:<font color="#000000">The gnome looks somewhat disappointed.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh, yes, Shankfang. I had nearly forgotten. All of you are welcome to come by any time you're in the area. And you may bring guests, too, if you like. Such as your fiance.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Oh, Hy didn' tink hyu heard me before.&quot; :B

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Was there a different question on your mind?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;No, dat vas it. Shell ve get on vith de bit about de rogue summonink kircle?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Indeed. Firstly, how come it's still active without any interference, as you say?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I'd have thought they do need the occassional look-over.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Miron, elves have discovered old forests filled with magic that was crafted and left by empires we have forgotten. A well made spell doesn't up and die in a century or two.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;The summoning circle, yes. It's not... precisely a summoning circle anymore. When Falterpaw and his hunting pack went out in my absence to search for game, they encountered a fiendish boar wandering about.&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">brb

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;.. thought it sounds like the warrenty on these are expiring.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Fiendeesh?&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi winces. &quot;Fiendish? Oh great. So, there's a chance the magic is going haywire.. or it was made by cultists in the first place.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Hm...&quot; He raises a brow. &quot;...Pure-fiendish?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;That... actually sounds like the corrupt druids we were dealing with earlier.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Naturally, they swiftly dispatched it, if not to eat, then simply to remove it from the area. They, and I, will not abide fiendish presence in these hills.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Oh joy. =w=&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Miron's got a good point. We've met something like this before. Coincidence or connection?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Freida Briarclaw and her lot. And there was a devil mxed in that bucket of shit, too.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">That's the magic word.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I guess we'll have to investigate to find out.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">When do we leave. &gt;:|

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Indeed. This may be of importance.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Anything else you know?&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;However, when it died, it vanished. This happened again several times over the next few days, with different animals each time. When I returned, they told me about it, and we did a little scouting and research to find out if it was a rogue summoner, or a cult setting up shop, or what have you.&quot; He chuckles a little. &quot;Patience, Miron, I'm not done.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;The seemingly least of details can aid an inquisitor at work.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Vanished. That means it was directly fiendish, and not just some poor warped creature.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Seems our 'rogue summoner' and 'summoning circle gone haywire' theories were both correct and incorrect at the same time. Tell me, have you ever heard of summoning oozes?&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Applicable knowledge? :&gt;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt watches silently with clasped hands, listening to the information.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Summoning oozes? I have heard of ooze mages..&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">:.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Summoning what now?&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">Dungeoneering, or Arcana.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+17 = 13 + 17 = 30&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Arcana on what the hell

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Afraid not.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+18 = 13 + 18 = 31&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; Knowledge Arcana!

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&gt;:O

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+3 = 8 + 3 = 11&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; dungeoneering

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Holy crow. Knowledgeable bunch. XD

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">If it's not architecture or engineering... -3-

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Imma wizurd.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Miron has two points in that too

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hy hef been itchink to properly schoot zumddink lately...&quot; &gt;:3

VAE:<font color="#000000">He brushed about engineering at home

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">When the gods damned hell are you going to use Architecture in a dungeon?

VAE:<font color="#000000">To make it purdy

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">|3

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+8 = 19 + 8 = 27&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; knowledge dungeoneering!

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+8 = 8 + 8 = 16&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; knowledge architecture!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang fingers the pistol holstered at his side, smiling wickedly. &gt;:3

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">:P

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Quit thinking so loudly! &gt;:O

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Oh right.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;1d20+7 = 13 + 7 = 20&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Knowledge local

Miron:<font color="#000000">Joining in.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">+int.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">... spam... but snerkworthy. :B

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">:&gt;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">That one OotS comic.

TMG:<font color="#000000">aside from int bonus?

VAE:<font color="#000000">Wait, what?

VAE:<font color="#000000">Int of 18

VAE:<font color="#000000">so four points in everything

VAE:<font color="#000000">this.. is odd

TMG:<font color="#000000">Meany; aha, you know it already. xD

TMG:<font color="#000000">Yep, that's what I was about to go for

VAE:<font color="#000000">Hmm, well.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Miron does have quite a few points in x-class skills i think

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Summoning oozes are rumored to be the product of old summoning circles gone bad -- living oozes full of sigils that can rearrange themselves into a summoning circle at any time. They tend to be a right nuisance in high-magic areas, and large ones have access to higher-tier summoning magic, up to the sixth circle.

VAE:<font color="#000000">but still, archivists get a lot more

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">I'll wait until you dumb and dumbers figure out the missing factor. |P

Liatai:<font color="#000000">High Int = high skill points. :P

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">You'll smack your foreheads when you do. :&gt;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Ohhh, not just that. ;)

VAE:<font color="#000000">Not quite, Lia

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Besides. I outclass -everyone- in skills.

VAE:<font color="#000000">An archivist would have still more, especially since his int is just two less

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Loremaster.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">8 base skillpoints.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">+5 int.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Not yet a loremaster

VAE:<font color="#000000">next level

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Wizards are disguised skill monkeys. :B Plus all Knowledge skills get an Int bonus to their checks.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">AWWWWW

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">You gave it away. XD

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">She only has 3 points in most of them.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">It's her int bonus that's boosting it.

VAE:<font color="#000000">I knew that

Zairith:<font color="#000000">I'm a wizard, and a properly-spelled one. The DM knows. *brick'd*

VAE:<font color="#000000">but still.. three points in all such is quite a lot

Meany:<font color="#660033">I noticed.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Also, int is currently 20. Magik itemz.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">I am the true skillmonkey, even moresoe than a rogue. not only do I have the 8 points like them, I'm an In-based class like a wizard. Literally best of both worlds.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Miron couldn't afford

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">Ahem? |3

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">Hi.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Oh hey dragon. :P

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">Dragon giving mini-quest. :P

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Sorry to press, but.. my previous question? Any idea?&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">He has a few good skills, rest relying on +wis, or neot even that

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">You don't have a monovle, though. You need a monocle.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Who the hell're you, we were fighting about points.*immolate'd*

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;The Veld isn't my usual travelling area, Tathi.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;hrm. Can't say I'm really familiar with anything like this...&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;If what I recall is right.. it's basically a circle lying there till the sheep come home, then spitting at its protrusions and leaving off to have some fun.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Blast it. How in the world does such a bigger copper dragon hide so well!?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;But it certainly sounds like something worth our time. Especally if...&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;You clearly haven't met Vaerithosgix.&quot; |3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt looks around to everyone. &quot;If we do decide to head up north after visiting Salishea...this'd be good practice.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;What's worse, their summons make Richter, or even Egon pale in comparison.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Twitch.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;One summoning ooze isn't exactly worth bringing down full draconic wrath on, but it is somewhat beyond the pack's capability to handle.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;When. Not if.&quot; Thomas finishes off his pineapple.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hell, this sounds like something Eli could have given us a hand with.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..But I would rather everyone else come along, yes.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Goot tink ve're here, den!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Shall we, then? =w=&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;You haven't seen a better abjurer.. but well... we'll have to deal. Best prepare a bunch of dispells.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;It's even messier when you consider they're immune to fire and acid. Fire, including my breath weapon.&quot; =w= &quot;No need to rush, unless you'd rather get it out of the way.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Yah! Let's go! Hy vanna schoot zumddink alreadyyyyy!&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Hmm.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Mmm, now that is useful knowledge. I best prepare to shock the crap out of it.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Whiiiiiine!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;So, we're all in agreement to go take this thing on?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Tathi, got electricity and ice?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I wouldn't be against, to be honest. Every hour such a thing is allowed to sneak about...&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">... and my player is an idiot. He forgot how long it takes a wizard to swap spells. -.- he's going to go beat his head with the pHB for a spell or two. oh ho a pun *brick'd*

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Aha, so you do.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">If I recall it varies depending on how many open spellslots you fill.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Between give and thirty minutes..? Something like that.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Fair enough. I can send one of the dogs with you to lead you to the location.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I honestly just always pick 15 and say fuck it.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">:B

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">No one cares about the specifics.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Except like, tech probably. ;P

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">The point is it takes a little while.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">be nice. XP

Meany:<font color="#660033">Hrm.

Meany:<font color="#660033">See.

RAM:<font color="#990000">He has a point, though.

Meany:<font color="#660033">This is why I like Sorcerers.

Meany:<font color="#660033">None of this prep drama.

Meany:<font color="#660033">=w=

Meany:<font color="#660033">(It has nothing to do with my inabilty to play high-int chars.)

VAE:<font color="#000000">Hmm, if that's the case, Miron might just as well swap one thing himself.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Yeah. I think I'm safe in thinking the DM will let me spellswap around during our trip there. *stands under the shadow of an incoming anvil*

Meany:<font color="#660033">(Nope, not at all.)

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Well, I personally can't wait.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">(is it terrible that ever since the marines, I've had an ass of a time playing anything with low strength or con? XD)

* Thomas Lazarus cleans off his lap and stands. He sets his platter aside.

VAE:<font color="#000000">XD

VAE:<font color="#000000">In that case, something that shoud have been done long long ago

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Where did the hounds find these beasts? Do we know where to head?&quot; &gt;:3

TMG:<font color="#000000">Hmm.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Miron should swap the two 1st level cures for Light of Lunia (well, he can cure spontaneously) , and the Sending he has for Recitation

VAE:<font color="#000000">that's 4th level

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Yeah, you can spellswap around now. :B

VAE:<font color="#000000">How long does it take to swap such ?

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi smirks. &quot;Look out everyone, our fiend hunter has the scent.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang stands as well, his hand resting on his pistol. &gt;:3

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Shut up, Tathi.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;It's an honor to have inquisitors on the job. And so far from their home hostel, too!&quot; |3 &quot;I'll send Fireback with you.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi is already busily studying her spellbook. &quot;Great, no fire or acid? I'm screwed anywhere around 2nd tier.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;You bet your britches. It's a real, serious incusion, Missy.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">O.o That seemed a little uncalled for, Miron...

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">.. did he really say that? XD

VAE:<font color="#000000">He did.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Not you.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Ah, quotes

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">&quot;... Thomas, what is britches? &quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">So he did

* Thomas Lazarus speaks a few words of lower and makes three distinctive gestures towards Sszeyl. His platinum ring flashes.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Shield Other is now active!

VAE:<font color="#000000">it's like the gayness addendum in letter to Altonor

VAE:<font color="#000000">that was made canoon

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi snickers loudly. &quot;Damnit Thomas, hush, I'm trying to concentrate!&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*laugh* &quot;Well said, brother&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Teria?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot; Pantaloons. &quot; =3=

Lumisteria:<font color="#000000">&quot;Mm-hmm?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well, how long does everyone need to prepare, then? I've got everything I need, but I would -love- to go talk to that fire elemental for a few minutes, if possible...even a few minutes would be very valuable in helping my learning of the firetongue.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Reminder for those who've been plotting melee combatants a while.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">SO does what now?

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Hmm.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;I'd rather you stayed here and filled Tharky and I in on your journey, but you've been on your own thus far. What do you want to do?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well... there's a few more spells.. I guess about half an hour to an hour?&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Are these oozes like the ones we met at the Castle?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;You have plenty time, Gnogglebolt&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">+1 deflection bonus to AC, +1 (???) bonus to all saves, and 1/2 the damage you take (rounded down) is given to Thomas.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi glances up. &quot;Sorry to bother you, Max, but do you know of any vulnerabilities these oozes have?&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Lasts 8 hours.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Acidic to the touch?&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">While you're at it.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Give Sszeyl +1 more base AC, too.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Deflection bonus already in place, darn.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Thomas also casts Magic Vestment on Sszeyl's clothes. Also lasting 8 hours.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;They're tough, and are said to slowly recover damage over time, but they're slow and weak-willed.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">All my 8 hour buffs are for you. =3=

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">I feel the bromance, Tom~

VAE:<font color="#000000">Heh. prepared recitation. If the combat gets tough, Miron can give everyone +2 attack, AC, and saves

VAE:<font color="#000000">It's like ubercharge

VAE:<font color="#000000">And now I must sketch Miron as TF2 medic, and Tom as heavy

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Miron does kind of channel the TF2 Medic's furious psychopathic mania sometimes. :B

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Can I be something? :D

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Scout. =3= *bricked*

VAE:<font color="#000000">yeah. It does fit. One with a blutsauger and that nasty saw

VAE:<font color="#000000">He's usually very combat ready reather than a healer, but he can deal with either.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Though indeed. If we don't need to actually leave right -now-, I suppose we can tell you about everything that's been going on with us...&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt looks back and forth. &quot;I'd normally tell the story, but I wasn't there for the first two days, at least.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;The sooner you can take it out, the better. Otherwise it will try to keep summoning allies. Luckily, it doesn't dissolve weapons or anything like that. Its acid is only in its strikes.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;So I can punch it? :D&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Awesome.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Now would be a great time to have that Force enchantment I want to get.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Yes, you can punch it.&quot; |3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Tough tiddleywinks!&quot; =3=

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...Ah. That would put a bit of urgency on taking it out as soon as possible...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Those critters could be causing havoc and eating passerby.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Why hello there DR dependent and HP absorbing Oozes.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">crap.. what book was energy spheres in again? XD

* Edaric chuckles a little. &quot;Britches and tiddlywinks? Really?&quot; x3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Perhaps we than simply tell you of our voyage when we get back?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Well that's what Mom always said..&quot; =w=; &quot;We didn't swear a lot.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Except Tomi. She was the rebel. =3= *punch'd*

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Hmm.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Hyu so silly, Tom.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hmm, rebel?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I thought she was more like you, brother.&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">Hmm. I wonder if Gnogglebolt can Cobble some kind of anti-summining grenade in one hour....

TMG:<font color="#000000">*summoning

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Oh.

RAM:<font color="#990000">OH GOD CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!

TMG:<font color="#000000">But, given that this thing is working off funky stuff, you can add a TS of your own if you wish. I'm imagining, say, you could throw in a TS of 10 to represent the crazywave generating component

Liatai:<font color="#000000">That works.

TMG:<font color="#000000">Okay, that means the overall TS is 10. Step three...

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Yes, I would set the TS in terms of rounds.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Have you noticed that once this was mentioned, the usual in-group sniping sort of subsided?

TMG:<font color="#000000">Hmm. Would you say it requires a save for it's effects, Liatai? If so, what would you set the DC at? (I'm thinkign a Fort save)

VAE:<font color="#000000">My father was a partisan in the forests!

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Game in progress *right now*.

VAE:<font color="#000000">&quot;Comrade teacher.. my father died in a concentration camp.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;You took care of my baby sister and are helping to get rid of a summoning creature problem nearby. I'd consider that more than even.&quot; |3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Cleaning your yard will have to do!&quot; *_*

TMG:<font color="#000000">And, will say Gnogglebolt runs back to the ship, and takes out of a bunch of random components he bought back in Reed (once I've figured out what he's -actually- crafting right now, I'll be sure to add an additional generous amoung of GP spent just to represent all kinds of compoenents. Int his case, though, this grenade takes &#171; &#160;960/3 = 960 / 3 = 320&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; gp worth of components to create)

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...I've got an idea!&quot; Gnogglebolt suddenly stands up and shouts.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">o.o;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Vat's dat?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;If we're going to stay here for a little time to prepare to fight this thing--I just had an idea, an amazing idea...creatures brought to this plane from another are brought through magical links...it can be disrupted...I think so...&quot; Gnogglebolt, towards the end of that, looks like he was talking more to himself before he shakes his head and looks at everyone else.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Tell me something I don't know.. why do you think I kept the dispels?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;If you guys can give me...say, two hours, three tops, I think I can cook up a little something that wil help with this.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">back again

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">ordering pizza though. :&gt;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;...Hy see! Hyu kan use a chaos generator to disrupt de energies bindink dem to dis plane!&quot; :O

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah.. that sounds intriguing.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">And suddenly SHankfang spits out a surprising bit of technological knowledge!

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Not a full chaos generator, I don't have one of those, but I remember seeing them and I know a few of the basic principles they operate on...&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;And with a few more hours...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Chaos.. generator..?&quot; {:3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Thomas?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;But yes, that is correct, shankfang!&quot; Gnogglebolt seems inordinatly happy that -someone- around here knows what he's talking about, for once.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">That sounds technical -- &quot;Oh er. Yes?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Chaos generator sounds like something Tathi's father does for a living.&quot; *brick*

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;So, I'll...be back in two or three hours, everyone! One hour if I'm -really- lucky and right about this!&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Yah, vith de proper tools hyu kan emulate de effects uf vun! Brilliant! Kan Hy help?&quot; :O

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Ah--&quot; Gnogglebolt blinks, and considers.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Don't make me use the puppy eyes.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...If you help...&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi just squints. Tech.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">I'll do it.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;I think I can i&gt;guarantee finishing this in one hour!&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;I think I can guarantee finishing this in one hour!&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:D

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Come on, shankfang, let's get back to the ship!&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Yah!&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;What in the world..&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Well, they seem happy now, atleast..&quot; ^^;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;What was the matter, Sszeyl?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt runs back to the ship with shankfang (doot de doot de doo, pretending)

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang goes off with Gnogglebolt, discussing some of the finer details of the projects with his future brother-in-law.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Inquiring into your patience in waiting a span of hours.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;O-oh.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I think it's rather impressive that Gnogglebolt was basically threatening to kill Shank when we first united them, and now they're practically friends now.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;The change and pace of life can be dizzying sometimes.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Well. We have to do this right, atleast.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;I know, right.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Und if hyu konfigure it like dis...&quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Well, the first time you met me, I was a statue.&quot; :3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;And it gets worse.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Impressive?... I find it concerning.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Hush you.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Demons are no trifling matter. No matter how much I may want to rush out there and start swinging. Or head up to Yoriver.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Gnogglebolt thinks everyone should be working at that speed.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">To Aelian.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">They speak of various things, like 'disruptive harmonics' and 'harnessing the basic kineto-principles of chaos energy to approximate, and a whiole bunch of euqations. but Gnogglebolt warns he's flying by the seat of his pants on this project. It's gonna be...less-than-well-put together

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;There is a time and a place for an assault. Once we are all prepared and ready.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;I'd have killed half of you if I tried going that fast constantly.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Right, I fear they may have fire in their arsenal, so I prepared my fire shield spell.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Someone able to change allegiances in a time that short, it can go both ways.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;It does no one any good to rush off unprepared and die for nothing.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..Besides..&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;They seemed excited.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang is just happy he's getting on good terms. It would suck for his future brother-in-law to not like him, after all.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;It's good to see.&quot; He remarks quietly.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">So, the craft check! With Gnogglebolt's +20 Craft tech modifier, he takes 10 to get a result of 30. And, with Shankfang there, he can use Aid Another to give Gnogglebolt a +2, bringing the ultimate result to +32

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;You are right, Brother. The last time we met a fiend... well... *taps on the bald patch on his head* &quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&#171; &#160;32*30 = 32 * 30 = 960&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Pffft, please, like you need to worry about your future inlaws. T_T

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Quite.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Here's a novel idea.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">He can take 10, too, for a total of 22 on that.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">And that brings us -exactly- to completion! The cobbled grenade is complete! However, it's MR is increased by +5, for a total MR of 8.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">How about not marrying her?

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Liatai, I leave you to come up with the malfucntion effect, and if it has a critical malfunction. :B

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Took near a bloody month to get my beard back, too.&quot;

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Sir, if you are suggesting eloping...

* Maxissoren watches the preparations curiously, not saying anything.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">I am.

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">HER ENTIRE FAMILY CAN SCRY.

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">:P

VAE:<font color="#000000">Um

VAE:<font color="#000000">Isn't eloping just that?

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Then take Iron Will.

VAE:<font color="#000000">escaping for purposes of marriage that noone agreed on?

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">Pfft, gold is nice to lounge on, but nothing beats a giant pillow. =3= *brick'd*

VAE:<font color="#000000">as in, noone other than the two would be weds

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Oh yes, and with a Technology Score of 10, the device-would- normally be out of Gnogglebolt's Technological Limit of 9, but since it's a Tiny device, Gnogglebolts Small Device Knack kicks in, and increases his Technological Limit by 2, for 11, which meets the TS.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">So. One hour later (when said) Gnogglebolt and SHankfang return to the ship.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Lucky lucky.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oh, trees, I am so sorry Max. Here we are plotting an adventure right in your living room. I swear we have the social tact of a pack of flatulent cows..&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">From the ship, you mean.

* Maxissoren waves a paw. &quot;Don't mind me, carry on.&quot; |3

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;After all, I'm an adventurer, too. I understand.&quot; |3

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Aelian quirks an eyebrow. &quot;A.. pack of flatulent cows? That's a new expression..&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;I thought a group of cows was a herd? :.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&#171; &#160;1d20-1 = 2 - 1 = 1&#160; <font color="#FF0000">&#187;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;So did I ... but then, back home it was mostly sheep and goats.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">A group of cows is called a murder. =3=

* Thomas Lazarus is bricked.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Much more suited to the mountains.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">it's moorder

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hm, that reminds me. Cows leading into prey. Have any of you ever had purple worm? Grandfather has a great recipe.&quot; :9

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Purple what? :.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oh gods, I said that, didn't I? I got it from my dad. He said he coined it from this encounter with a very kind human. He was a farmer trying to sell this pack of cows, and he was just the nicest and charismatic farmer you ever met, but my dad swore up and down that every other word was underlined by a cow's butt deflating.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;That sounds like a parasite.&quot; ^^;

* Teeny Rin just has flashbacks. D8

* Maxissoren laughs. &quot;I suppose it does in that context!&quot; x3

Teeny Rin:<font color="#FF0000">Vietnam-like underdark flashbacks. D8

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Knowledge... nature? Or arcana? I forget what type of critter the purple worm was. XD

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Arcana, it's a magical beast.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&#171; &#160;1d20+18 = 6 + 18 = 24&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; Knowledge Arcana!

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Oh yeah, Tathi knows what those are.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Purple worm... sounds somewhat familiar..&quot; &#171; &#160;1d20+17 = 6 + 17 = 23&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; Arcana

TMG:<font color="#000000">Anyway. For those unaware, a 'chaos generator' was a concept introduced in the book WoW More Magic and Mayhem (that's mostly for your benefit, lia, you can look it up if you wish), and it's something that's most commonly used in tech devices that approach pseudomagic

Liatai:<font color="#000000">So does Miron.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Yikes. You eat those!?&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">http://surbrook.devermore.net/adaptationscreatures/games/dnd/purpleworm.jpg

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">I can never see that picture...

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Hell..that's a ton of meat.&quot;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">... without the caption &quot;Well.. fuck.&quot; over the poor fighter's head. XD

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Fucked.jpg

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Why not? Otherwise it's a lot of meat going to waste. And they're a plague on any local ecosystem if allowed to go unchecked.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Isn't the poison a problem?&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Gracious.. I just thought they would be poisonous.. or flat out disgusting!&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">For example, there's actually a tech cloaking device that uses a chaos generator. TO say nothing of things like shrink rays and teleport pads

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Not entirely. Poison and bad taste are the defenses of prey, not predators.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Don't eat the head, remove the glands, and you don't have to worry about the poison.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">Servant of chaos! *sticks an excruciator on Gnogglebolt*

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Random trivia: Illithids favor using charmed Purple Worms as shock troops in underdark conflicts.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Maybe next time one of us catches one we'll share.&quot; :3

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;So it's just head and tail then. Not bad.&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">Does anyone mind a bit of spam? :B

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;.. that's a whole lot of meat.&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt and Shankfang can return anytime. Though they do get sniffed by the blink dogs on the return trip.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">I wanna shoot somethiiiiiiing!

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">^^;;;;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">But this is good rp, so continue.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I wouldn't mind. Anything can be made into a decent meal if you try enough&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;At least Gilric always says it.&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">quickspam, then jumping back into the game...

TMG:<font color="#000000">Thought at fi rst to be magical, as it can sometimes mimic the effects of arcane magic, chaos energy is purely mechanical in nature. A small box contains magnets, several differing kinds of metal, steam energy and a tiny golden core that vibrates at a high frequency when powered. This bizarre mix creates strange results. The chaos energy that is generated needs to be funneled to power a device, else it begins to break down the generator itself. If a generator builds up too much energy, it explodes, causing one of the following effects: 2d6 Effect 2 2d6 points of damage to all creatures in a 5-foot radius 3&#8211;5 One item on each creature in a 5-foot radius is destroyed (GM&#8217;s discretion) 6&#8211;8 Every creature in a 5-foot radius loses 1 point of Strength for 2 hours 9&#8211;11 1d4 points of damage to the creature closest to the generator 12 Knocks unconscious 1d6 creatures within a 15-foot radius&gt;br&gt; Chaos energy is highly dangerous; some believe it actually is equivalent to arcane magic, although it can be harnessed by tinkers. Any device using chaos energy has a minimum MR of 3.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;It is. It's... say, the equivalent of a human family slaughtering a whole cow. One worm can feed our family for at least three months.&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">However, this device doesn't -actually- use a real chaos generator, just something approaching it.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Nice. How do you preserve the meat? Salted?&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Okaaaay.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">But yeah. Now that your daily dose of steampunk pseudoscience dump is complete, Gnogglebolt and SHankfang return!

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Also... i'd thought them worms to be a bit watery.&quot;

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;I'm partial to smoked, myself.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang gives the dogs pettinz as they return.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Don't fall in love with the damn thing you're going to throw it at the ground and have it explode in a few rounds. ;P

VAE:<font color="#000000">I dislike their use of &quot;steam energy&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Haloo!&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">because that can either be heat, or mechanical energy due to having it expand

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">A bit over an hour later, accounting for the trip itself, Gnogglebolt comes speeding back into the sitting room.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">... when did Terri shift? ^^;;;

Lumisteria:<font color="#000000">&quot;Haloo!&quot;

Lumisteria:<font color="#000000">Ninjaaaaa. =3=

VAE:<font color="#000000">A box full of steam energy just reeks of someone who doesn't have an idea what energy is.

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">You have learned well, student. =3=

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">oh lol XD

Liatai:<font color="#000000">*brick'd*

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:3 Scritchinz for NinjaTerri.

Tavia:<font color="#7F00FF">Hey! You're that scaley thing again! :3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;So.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Smoked... must make for quite a good jerky, too.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt is carrying this...asbolutely -ugly- and completely insrutable thing of brass, gold, and wires. It honestly looks to the world like the most jumbled pieces of metasl you've ever seen, even mroeso than Gnogglebolt's older electrostun grenade

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Did you.. make whatever it is you wanted to make?&quot; =w=;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;This is it, yes.&quot; Gnogglebolt holds it up.

Maxissoren:<font color="#000000">&quot;Oh yes. Mm... purple worm jerky...&quot; :9

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Owo;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;If they are anything like normal worms, their body make-up should lend really well to cutting strips of&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;That?&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Erp.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Windows Explorer has locked up.

* Maxissoren peers over Gnogglebolt's shoulder, craning his neck. Granted, he's looking from about five feet above Gnogglebolt.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;I did, um, well, really just throw all the parts together with littel care for how well they work together. It, ah, should work. In theory. But, um, I think i t may be particularly volatile...&quot;

Kor:<font color="#7F00FF">ALL OF MY HATE. ALL OF MY HATE, DRAGON SPAWN.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*looks* &quot;Gnogglebolt... are you sure you can actually throw that thing anywhere far enough?&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;So, er, when I say that 'm turning it on, just, ah, take a few steps back.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">If you roll a nat 1

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">And cause a resonance cascade

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I will begin laughing

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I don't know when I'll stop.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Same. =3=

Miron:<font color="#000000">*suspicious inquisitor is suspicious*

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Right then! but I'm ready to head out whenever.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Especially since you said it is chaos-powered.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus scratches his head. {:3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Not quite. I said it works on similar principals as chaos-energy generators...and that's actually a bit of a misleading name.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Well, your other inventions looked unusual to me, but they worked well. So I'll take your word for it. We'll certainly see soon.&quot;

* Lumisteria clambers up onto the giant pillow as Max scootches over to make room.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;We only call it 'chaos energy' because if you have a generator and you don't dump the energy into it, it does...weird things.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">&gt;:E

Meany:<font color="#660033">I guess Imma have to go without sheet at this juncture.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Like, make everyone's hair fall out. Or cause anything made out of wax to spontaneously combust. Or...well.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Well.. I really would't want a load of chaos into my face. I have a feeling I'd have a hard time walking over it.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;But this isn't quite one of those.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Actually.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">D: Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Dat, und a chaos generator iz a mix uf a bunch uf rundom schit dat makes absolutely no sense how it does vat it does.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">What's the remaining sand in the hourglass here?

* Liatai peeks at the clock.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;As long as you don't throw it anywhere near where I'm bloody standing...&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;It's just going to throw out so much interfering energy, it should disrupt the connection binding any summoned creatures to this world.&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">.... oh dear. XD

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;But, I'm ready to go at any time.&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Not enough time for the battle. ^^;

Thomas Lazarus: <font color="#ff0000">(( Hit pretty hard and tried to drown Thomas in sewage. ^^; ))

GM:<font color="#000000">Ahem! Hello there!

VAE:<font color="#000000">Chuuls do that

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Yes.&quot; Flatly.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">OH GOD WHAT-

Teeny Rin:<font color="#FF0000">Oh god.

Teeny Rin:<font color="#FF0000">Cue the MEGAMAN BOSS SIRENS.

Miron:<font color="#000000">More bloody undead.

GM:<font color="#000000">As you can see, the GM is trying something new. As this is a mini-dungeon, you get Undead Devin.

* Ghostwish pounces the new token and runs off with his arms. XP

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">No, FF VII BOSS FIGHT MUSIC!

Miron:<font color="#000000">The Inquisitor attempts to slap it with positive energy.

GM:<font color="#000000">Let's make with the narration, then. The blink dog leads you to a cave in the hills... Please move to the Gilforen Cave map, I've pasted your tokens.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&gt;:.

TMG:<font color="#000000">I...cannot see anything, and I'm trying to use map explorer to lock onto my token...

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;How strange. Didn't I meet you all at a cave?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;And now to find the bloody runeslime.&quot;

GM:<font color="#000000">Better?

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Ve need to fight more tinks out in de open. My bike von' help henny in dere.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus looks over his shoulder.

TMG:<font color="#000000">-there- we go

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Everyone.. ... ..especially those of you who're not warriors, listen up please.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;It is rare for one to be able to choose the site of batte on offensive.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I've a warding circle prepared.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;If these are summoned fiends, stand inside of it. They will not be able to enter the circle around me and touch you.&quot;

Edaric:<font color="#000000">&quot;Clever.&quot; :.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt nods. &quot;Understood.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Neat.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus grips his amulet and casts Circle of Protection from Evil.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;What happens if they have to?&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Quite.&quot;

* Swallowtail looks serious and focused. Dragonquest .&gt;:.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...Should I excuse myself from the circle right before I start turning on this thing?&quot; He holds up the utterly incomprehensible device

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...Just in case?&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus shrugs slightly. &quot;I ... leave the judgement up to you. I can't fathom what'll happen.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;But the circle merely wards off evil souls.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Right then.&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">Would be fun him casting it, and half the party having to leave

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Circle of protection drawn for initial reference.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">But I won't bother redrawing it before init.

* Edaric unslings his lute. &quot;Onward?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">5x5 box centered on Tom, gotcha.

* Thomas Lazarus draws out his sword and shield. He nods.

TMG:<font color="#000000">that's a 10by10 box, you mean

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Aelian gets his bow out.

RAM:<font color="#990000">...

RAM:<font color="#990000">No.

RAM:<font color="#990000">You're on crack.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt has his blunderbuss at the ready in one hand, and the strange egg-like mash of metal in the other

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">It don't matter. XD

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Is Shankfang taking the bike, or no?

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Pistol drawn! &quot;Locked und loaded!&quot; &gt;:3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">No, not taking the bike. Not into a cave.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Miron takes out his mace, and a bottle of holy water.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;May the Cudgel aid our fight.&quot;

GM:<font color="#000000">Everyone please move to the mouth of the cave, and I'll move you further in.

TMG:<font color="#000000">meany--oh, whusp

TMG:<font color="#000000">meany hasn't reconnected yet

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">For everyone's reference, the other benefits of protection from evil are +2 deflection AC, +2 morale bonus to saves, and immunity to evil compulsion/possession magic.

GM:<font color="#000000">The cave smells like dust, mold, and a faint whiff of something reminiscient of an old spice cabinet or an old drawer in an alchemist's lab.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Nice

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">You hear that Vargichexiniejierwhatever! &gt;:O

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Take a break! &gt;:O *bricked*

VAE:<font color="#000000">he goes on holidays, into the Filler Park

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;This smells ... oddly familiar.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Old potion components gone off... someting of that sort.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Sadly.. I've been told that's what an ooze smells like. A potion gone wrong.&quot;

GM:<font color="#000000">I'm not bothering with light sources, because I assume with all of these spells about someone's cast something that casts light. =3=

* Thomas Lazarus peers about warily. He seems to be very on-edge and serious right now.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">I cast light on the DM.

TMG:<font color="#000000">that and I think Gnogglebolt has an everburning torch he just sticks out of his backpack. :B

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Uhh. I cast Light of Venya then. =w=;;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">I has darkvision to 60 feet.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">:O

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;--Guah! It's weird-looking!&quot;

Sigil-Filled Ooze:<font color="#000000">As you round the corner, you notice a bunch of arcane symbols on the floor... or at least, they start on the floor. They rise up in a gelatinous mass, swirling and waving a pseudopod... Roll initiative!

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Eh? What is?&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Ooze sighted!&quot;

TMG:<font color="#000000">Heyo meany.

TMG:<font color="#000000">We -just- rolled init. Need log?

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Actually, you're just in time, Meany.

Miron:<font color="#000000">Hell... last time I saw one was a messup in Castleton's arcane district.. but that was a tenth of its size.

Meany:<font color="#660033">No.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">It's init time. :3

Meany:<font color="#660033">Just tell me the map.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Gilforen Cave.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Now...who goes first, me or Aelian?

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Only Sszeyl and Gnogglebolt left for setting init. :3

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&#171; &#160;1d20+2 = 19 + 2 = 21&#160; <font color="#660033">&#187; Dex check!

TMG:<font color="#000000">right, sorry.

TMG:<font color="#000000">...see, ram? That's 10 feet! &gt;:.

RAM:<font color="#990000">No, it's 5 squares by 5 squares.

TMG:<font color="#000000">anyway,as for who goes first, whoever has the highest dex/init modifier

RAM:<font color="#990000">You're smoking crack.

TMG:<font color="#000000">if the same, then flip a coin

GM:<font color="#000000">Shankfang and Aelian, please roll a d20 each?

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&#171; &#160;1d20 = 1&#160; <font color="#990000">&#187;!

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Yeah, Aelian goes first.

TMG:<font color="#000000">....Oh, you actually MEAN five BY five. Normally, when referring to boxes in DnD, we call them by radius. :B

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">To be fair, this is a cube. It sort of works given paces/functional radius. I only didn't use the radius template because you have to center radii on the corners of squares.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">This one is supposed to be centered on Tom.

Aelian has received initiative.Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">och

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">So.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">It's just the one.

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Oh, if only I had taken favored enemy, ooze..

Aelian:<font color="#7F00FF">Aelian draws back his longbow, and lets fly at the ooze! &#171; &#160;1d20+11 = 3 + 11 = 14&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; for &#171;  &#160;1d8+1 = 8 + 1 = 9&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; damage!

TMG:<font color="#000000">Wow oh wow. Really? xD

Thomas Lazarus: <font color="#FF0000">Technically. =3=;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Totally a legit tactic. XD

Liatai:<font color="#000000">Depends on if you get his permission. Otherwise you'll need to deal with grappling. :B

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">I can attest to the fact that if you are strong enough, you can grab a sucker and run. :&gt;

Will also roll the Use Tech roll then, as well. The DC, accoridng to rule-of-thumb guidelines, is 20. but, if I roll low enough to miss that, then with a malfuncton rating of 8, I will be in the malfunction range.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Yay! |3

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">I could totally confirm that, too. =3=

Sigil-Filled Ooze:<font color="#000000">And a damn good marksman at that. More sigil-filled ooze splatters on the ground, arcane signs winking out of existence.

Sszeyl has received initiative.* Thomas Lazarus merely squints one eye as Ooze splatters on his cheek.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;It's tough..&quot;

VAE:<font color="#000000">If it summons more of the shit, Miron's gonna do an area dispel

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">I appreciate your concern. But this is ki, and that is magic.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">I have been crushed under a 300 pound axe before and kept fighting.

Hell Hound 6:<font color="#000000">Ow.

Hell Hound 6:<font color="#000000">Though this one seems a little more resistant to exorcising punches.

Liatai:<font color="#000000">All done?

VAE:<font color="#000000">also, Imperativa *is* a brilliant battle music

Tathi has received initiative.Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Shankfang would apologize for that, but he's too busy cackling like a bloodthirsty maniac.

Miron:<font color="#000000">I have never heard of any ki. I hope it is friends with Saint Cuthbert.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Thomas, Sszeyl, be a dear and don't. move..&quot; Tathi says as she strides forward..

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Lovely.

* Thomas Lazarus holds a defensive stance and doesn't move.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Holding up a small glass rod as she chants, Tathi sunders the battlefield with a blinding blue streak of lightning! DC17 for half damage, or suffer the full &#171; &#160;8d6 = 17&#160; <font color="#7F00FF">&#187; damage!

VAE:<font color="#000000">that seems underwhelming

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Okay, Swallowtail's alright. Back to insane cackling.

* Thomas Lazarus looks to the Ooze and shouts. &quot;Swallowtail, reappear somewhere as close to me as Sszeyl is, I'll heal you.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt acuires a terrified face as he hears Swallowtail's cry of pain, even though she said she was fine afterward

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">His attention returns to melee.

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">&quot;Yes.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">What.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Too pissed off right now to check.

Hell Hound 7:<font color="#000000">This hound attacks thin air. &#171; &#160;1d20+7 = 11 + 7 = 18&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187; &#171;  &#160;1d8+3+1d6 = 1 + 3 + 4 = 8&#160; <font color="#000000">&#187;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Still upset that his device was a dud, and also that Swallowtail was hit by friendly fire, Gnogglebolt grits his teeth and moves up to the hellhound assaulting Edaric, getting his blunderbuss ready as he goes.

RAM:<font color="#990000">I'm not gonna remind you. :P

VAE:<font color="#000000">that sounds like a bad idea

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Sszeyl trades in evasion for skill focus: craft(painting).

VAE:<font color="#000000">actually

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Looks all legal to me so far.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Roll it.

Ghostwish:<font color="#7F00FF">Not unless that sucker has reach.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Before he notices it.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Everyone fine? Doesn't look like anyone took any hard hits, except for maybe Swallowtail, but I don't know how bad that one is...&quot;

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">There you are, statblock get. :B

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;...Hmm.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Especially you, Thomas. You sliced it into three chunks I see.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Dat vas satisfyink, if a bit on de easy side.&quot; &gt;:)

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">For a second there.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Indeed. Excellent job, Thomas.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus lays a hand on Swallowtail's shoulder. &#171; &#160;1d8+5 = 5 + 5 = 10&#160;  &#187; Healing.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">I thought your AC was 5.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">And was all.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">What.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;And Tathi, next time, use spells in a wiser way.&quot;

Liatai:<font color="#000000">x3

* Thomas Lazarus waves slightly at the praise.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt, however, wanders over to the spot on the floor....where his dud device fell.

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">&quot;Is fine, was invisible. Will remember lightning next time.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Sszeyl sniffs the air.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;I could have tried dispelling them, but didn't want to mess with Swallowtail's invisibility.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">He picks up the silent egg of mashed metal and looks at it.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;I smell gold. =w=&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Feck.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;We all fought properly. I'd have been annihilated by hellhounds if you all weren't here. To say nothing of that thing being made of rocks and muscle. All the bullets and lightning did plenty of work.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;And I -know- it would've worked...if I hadn't rushed making it, I -know- it would have worked...&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Dispelling... It seems that whatever this chaos engine is, it does as chaos is wont to do.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Oh geezus, Swallowtail! Are you allright!?&quot; Tathi says as she comes running up, and yup. Hugs Swallowtail. XP

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">o.o

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Aah, Hy do luv de schmell uf gunpowder...&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Oh how touching. :V&quot;

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">&quot;I fine, I fine.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..I know what that feels like.. electricity is really painful..&quot; ^^;;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I think she's fine now though.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">*/snape*

* Dr. Hatari can only hear his voice now.

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">&quot;I remember, saw.&quot; ^^;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt just gives Miron a dull stare before pocketing the device. &quot;Maybe I can fix it up, and try and use it again later...&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;How about hyu, Ed? Hy sav hyu take a hit dere.&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Sszeyl is now voiced as Snape.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Cannot unhear!

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Electricity just.. you can barely feel your body...Fire is worse.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Ignore the creepy grin, he's still riding the combat high.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Listen, sweety? If you're going to do that invisible trick, tell me. I can cast a spell that will let me see you, and we won't have a repeat of this again.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Eh-heheh...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Before we all get caught up making morbid talk..&quot;

* Edaric holds up his burnt sleeve with no wound beneath it. &quot;Nothing a mending spell won't fix.&quot; :3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I spotted a pile of treasure back there.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Shall we claim our loot?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;We should look about if there's any more of them.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Goot, goot.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Sszeyl practically zooms off to the gold.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Best not be caught unprepared.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Leaving a trail of fire.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">^^;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;Now, treasure get!&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;...Let's go make sure Sszeyl doesn't -eat- it or something...&quot; Gnogglebolt jokes.

Edaric:<font color="#000000">&quot;And there goes the night-bodied hoardelf,&quot; Ed chuckles.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Point.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Om nom nom.

* Edaric pokes Thomas' shoulder. &#171; &#160;2d8+6 = 13 + 6 = 19&#160;  &#187;

* Thomas Lazarus nudges the sludge with his boot. &gt;:.

* Thomas Lazarus looks surprised at Ed for a moment. &quot;...&quot; Then his shoulder.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Tiamat's three arses.I wonder what the bloody hell has the thing been doing with thos much treasure, or where the hell did it get it.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus laughs softly after a pause.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..My goodness.. I forgot about me..&quot; ^^;;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Maybe random destritus left behind by summoned beasties. I dunno.&quot;

Edaric:<font color="#000000">&quot;Turnabout is fair play.&quot; :3

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Thank you, Ed.&quot; :3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">*detritus

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;There's a bloody cartload if I ever seen one.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;It's loot, don' komplain.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Or maybe people stumbled past here before and this ooze has collection insticts.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus pats the bard's shoulder. |3

GM:<font color="#000000">2100 GP, alexandrite (200 gp), black pearl (500 gp), bloodstone (30 gp), carnelian (50 gp), deep blue spinel (300 gp), jacinth (4000 gp), malachite (14 gp), red spinel (50 gp), two chunks of rhodochrosite (10 gp, 12 gp), star rose quartz (60 gp), a prayer scroll with an Ehlonnan seal, a pair of sturdy gauntlets, a heavy steel shield sized for a halfling, another heavy steel shield bearing the sign of Kord sized for a human, a transparent brown liquid in a vial that smells faintly of earth and furniture varnish, a bright green potion that smells like strawberries, and a lightweight rowan wand with a feather tassel.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Psssst. Answer Tathi you silly ninja. :P

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Sszeyl goes through the loot, and puts the red dragon in his frontal lobe to work.

Swallowtail:<font color="#000000">&quot;Is bad stealth to announce before, but I will try.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Either way, I'm pretty sure it's ours now.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;An inquisitor should be always at watch, Shenkfang.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Saving loot, do not turn off your server...

Tathi: <font color="#7f00ff">(( *turns it off* ))

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">Saved.

* Edaric goes back to pick up his lute.

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;I'll just have to watch for when you poof then. How often can you do that?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;A Kordite shield..? Interesting.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;A prayer scroll? Lemme look that one up.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Scroll.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Potions.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Mmm, delicious lootz.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;... I wonder if that's heresy.&quot; He jokes.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Snrk.

Miron:<font color="#000000">*picks it up and asts Read Magic*

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt glumly looks at his dude device again. Funnly enough, had Gnogglebolt not Cobbled it, the MR would have been only 3, and it would have worked. &quot; I know it would have worked if I hadn't rushed it...&quot;

* Swallowtail scoops up her hand crossbow.

* Thomas Lazarus glances to Gnogglebolt.

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Not to prod a fresh wound, but..&quot; ^^;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;I'm very curious.&quot;

* Swallowtail thinks. &quot;... Up to five a day.&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;What was supposed to happen?&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">Okay.

Meany:<font color="#660033">I'm loosing energy fast.

Meany:<font color="#660033">EXP plz?

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">&quot;It vas supposed to baneesh de hellhounds by disruptink de magic anchorink dem to dis plane.&quot;

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt looks up. &quot;Like I said. It would have filled the immediate area around it with so much distorting energy it would have broken the link that keeps those summoned creatures here.&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi grimaces. &quot;Well.. crud. I don't think I'll be able to keep up.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">I honestly do not have any to give.

TMG:<font color="#000000">Oh yes. Tathi for &quot;WHUPS.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">You know.

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Listen, brother. Inquisitor Thorgar Garral, my friend and cleric of Hanseath...he always used a hammer consecrated to Moradin. When someone asked him how come, he answered - 'When I bash the heads of his foes in, Hanseath has better things than care what I do it with.&quot;

Meany:<font color="#660033">If I hadn't gotten angry.

TMG:<font color="#000000">Shankfang for March of the Joker

Meany:<font color="#660033">I would have had Sszeyl actually say that IC.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Yes, I am a combat junkie.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">I'm not sure why you were so angry.. we just asked you to roll a reflex save.. when a hellhound breathed fire on you.. =w=;;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">But okay.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Tom replies anything?

TMG:<font color="#000000">Yeah, shankfang was all *step* &quot;Heeheehee!&quot; *step* Heeheehah! *step* AHAHAHAA!

Meany:<font color="#660033">I never said that was why I was angry.

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">I was trying to channel some of Alucard there.

VAE:<font color="#000000">Meany has dumb family

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">I actually thought it was conversation to another person in the group.

TMG:<font color="#000000">...looking at irc, it looks like Meany had trouble with WoT. :B

VAE:<font color="#000000">there's always a reason for anger

Meany:<font color="#660033">That.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Plus hacking cough.

VAE:<font color="#000000">It was the bit about the shield of Kord being heresy

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Ah. Well. If it wasn't us, I can totally understand then.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">S'alright. =3=

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Had that earlier myself.

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Family not the cough.

Meany:<font color="#660033">Plus family making huge amounts of dirty dishes that I have to go do after the game.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;But yeah...&quot; Gnogglebolt sighs and looks away from homas down at the device. &quot;Didn't work. I'll take a look at it later, see if I can figure out why. This kind of thing will still be pretty useful for later...&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus blinks suddenly.

VAE:<font color="#000000">hmm, how long does copying down a spell take from scroll?

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..Oh. Were you talking to me? Sorry, brother.&quot; ^^; &quot;Was thinking wounds and distances and wards still..&quot;

* VAE wonders if he can roll spellcraft

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..My head's still in combat mode..&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Happens...&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..Speaking of which, your robe tail is still smoldering!&quot;

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Might want to keep it there. We don't know how many of these things there are.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;Was just mentioning.. if you keep the shield, you wouldn't be the first one.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Thomas, perhaps this will help you get out of combat mode.&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">&quot;And.. argh...&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;We just left Terri with a couple of storyteller bards.&quot;

* Thomas Lazarus nods, then looks to Sszeyl.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;What happens when she brings up the shambling mounds, and that she participated in the battle?&quot;

Miron:<font color="#000000">*tries to stomp down the smoldering chunk

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">Tathi quirks an eyebrow. &quot;Are you trying to scare him to death?&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;Heh..&quot; ^^; &quot;..True.. but..&quot;

Thomas Lazarus:<font color="#FF0000">&quot;..Atleast she's not a real little girl.&quot; {|3

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">Well I'm satisfied. :3

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">&quot;Anyway...let's gather up all these goodies, I'll go through and sort out the gems and things later and rpepare to sell them at the next town.&quot;

Shankfang the Deffrider:<font color="#990000">Lucky.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Not even getting into Gnogglebolt or Tathi.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">Woo.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">(I know you take care of loot OOC hatari, but IC, Gnogglebolt always did it, just making mention of that. ^^

Tathi:<font color="#7F00FF">&quot;Are we certain this was the only ooze? I guess we'll have to ask the blink dogs to scout..&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">That's fine. I never said Thomas went about IC doing accounting.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Or you could cast scry.&quot;

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">&quot;Oh wait. :B&quot;

Dr. Hatari:<font color="#FF0000">He'd hate it and think it was a disastrous idea.

TMG:<font color="#000000">Heh. Righto.

Sszeyl:<font color="#660033">You sure as hell don't want me doing it.

Gnogglebolt:<font color="#000000">Gnogglebolt helps gather up all the loot into his pack and the 'bag of holding'.
