[1/6/2014 7:11:05 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): He did say one of his friends turned into a murderer. Perhaps he is... used to it.

[1/6/2014 7:13:59 PM] Graaver: It's probably good to get Nation out of that quickly [1/6/2014 7:14:00 PM] Wynn (visor up): How long do we wait before searching out these superiors ourselves?

[1/6/2014 7:16:51 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel hands it over. It is goo free. [1/6/2014 7:17:05 PM] Janis: Damn. We probably should've kept the goo. [1/6/2014 7:17:11 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): What for?

[1/6/2014 7:17:47 PM] Janis: Yeah, his remains. [1/6/2014 7:17:53 PM] Wynn (visor up): If only Kalor was here. I bet he'd know. [1/6/2014 7:18:07 PM] Kestrel: It was a corpse. [1/6/2014 7:18:09 PM] Graaver: He does know a lot about everything [1/6/2014 7:18:18 PM | Edited 7:18:24 PM] Janis: Yeah, but what kind of corpse? [1/6/2014 7:18:20 PM] Kestrel: Keeping it would be inappropriate. [1/6/2014 7:18:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): This is true. [1/6/2014 7:18:40 PM] Janis: Clearly you've never had to bring back a bounty. [1/6/2014 7:18:53 PM] Wynn (visor up): You wouldn't like it much if someone carried your ear around to look at. [1/6/2014 7:19:25 PM] Janis: He shot poisoned arrows at us. [1/6/2014 7:19:31 PM] Janis: Who cares what he'd like? [1/6/2014 7:19:34 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Not poisoned... Goop-ified [1/6/2014 7:19:43 PM] Janis: Janis points to Lira [1/6/2014 7:19:49 PM] Kestrel: It would  make others uncomfortable. [1/6/2014 7:19:50 PM] Janis: He shot YOU with an arrow. [1/6/2014 7:19:57 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) shrugs. [1/6/2014 7:20:03 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): It was a bolt. [1/6/2014 7:20:17 PM] Janis: Janis groans and turns back to the armor. [1/6/2014 7:20:28 PM] Janis: This circle, I wonder if it's a symbol of some kind. [1/6/2014 7:20:41 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Perhaps Sennec's supervisors might recognize it... [1/6/2014 7:20:52 PM] Janis: Maybe. [1/6/2014 7:21:15 PM] Janis: ((Is there anything someone can roll to see if it is a symbol or just a scratch?)) [1/6/2014 7:21:29 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((K:Religion 14 on the armor? Worth a shot.)) [1/6/2014 7:21:56 PM | Edited 7:22:42 PM] Nation: It's a very deliberate engraved symbol, a perfect white circle, about four inches in diameter. [1/6/2014 7:22:13 PM | Edited 7:22:27 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) peers at the circle and then returns to eating her food. [1/6/2014 7:22:22 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) frowns. "I don't recognize it." [1/6/2014 7:22:43 PM] Wynn (visor up): Though the color choice is also intriguing. [1/6/2014 7:23:04 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) has to poof! And will follow the party in absent-mindedness [1/6/2014 7:23:16 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((come back soon!)) [1/6/2014 7:23:55 PM] Janis: Janis turns to Wynn [1/6/2014 7:24:09 PM] Janis: And you shouldn't've touched that stuff before we knew more about it. [1/6/2014 7:24:31 PM] Wynn (visor up): Like I said... I'd rather touch it myself than wait until you did. [1/6/2014 7:24:44 PM] Janis: It's different when I do it. [1/6/2014 7:24:52 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) frowns. [1/6/2014 7:25:14 PM] Wynn (visor up): I will protect you, whether you want me to or not. [1/6/2014 7:25:24 PM] Wynn (visor up): If it means taking the ridiculous risks before you do, so be it. [1/6/2014 7:25:35 PM] Janis: But that's just it. [1/6/2014 7:25:49 PM] Wynn (visor up): You are the one who continued touching the wires after I warned you to stop, or don't you remember? [1/6/2014 7:25:51 PM] Janis: When I take the ridiculous risks, you're there to back me up. [1/6/2014 7:26:19 PM] Wynn (visor up): But my own injury or death is something I can handle. [1/6/2014 7:26:40 PM] Janis: WELL I CAN'T! [1/6/2014 7:26:51 PM] Janis: And I'm 11, that could be traumatizing! [1/6/2014 7:27:11 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'm sure you've seen, even caused, your share of death to this point. [1/6/2014 7:27:33 PM] Janis: Well, yeah, but they were people who I was supposed to kill. [1/6/2014 7:27:49 PM] Janis: What's that got to do with anything? [1/6/2014 7:28:08 PM] Wynn (visor up): If I should die, you lose a shipmate. [1/6/2014 7:28:14 PM] Wynn (visor up): If you... [1/6/2014 7:28:22 PM] Janis: If you die...I lose a friend. [1/6/2014 7:28:25 PM] Janis: :( [1/6/2014 7:28:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) smiles slightly. [1/6/2014 7:29:00 PM] Wynn (visor up): Maybe we should both be less impulsive then. [1/6/2014 7:29:07 PM] Janis: Janis nods [1/6/2014 7:29:25 PM] Wynn (visor up): Just try to warn me when you decide to do something stupid. [1/6/2014 7:29:33 PM] Janis: Ok. [1/6/2014 7:29:40 PM] Janis: I'll shout it back as I run at it. [1/6/2014 7:29:43 PM] Janis: Janis laughs [1/6/2014 7:29:50 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) shakes her head. [1/6/2014 7:30:01 PM] Graaver: Graaver smiles into the food. [1/6/2014 7:30:35 PM] Janis: ............ [1/6/2014 7:30:49 PM] Janis: .....this waiting is BOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRIIIIINNNNGGGG. [1/6/2014 7:31:58 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((side note: at next level, paladins are immune to fear of all types... does that mean wynn won't be as anxious about something happening to janis?)) [1/6/2014 7:32:08 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel shakes her head. [1/6/2014 7:32:12 PM] Nation: Sennec comes back, as if on queue. "How, how many people did you leave on your ship thing?" [1/6/2014 7:32:22 PM | Edited 7:33:35 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((guessing nation is talking kalor through coming back)) [1/6/2014 7:32:31 PM] Wynn (visor up): Three. [1/6/2014 7:32:41 PM] Janis: Wait, does Nation count himself? [1/6/2014 7:32:43 PM] Graaver: Wasn't Kalor the only one there? [1/6/2014 7:32:50 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((jhett, kalor raven)) [1/6/2014 7:32:51 PM] Janis: No, Jhett was there too. [1/6/2014 7:33:01 PM] Janis: And probably Raven, but who knows where he gets to. [1/6/2014 7:33:13 PM] Nilani: Nilani frowns slightly [1/6/2014 7:33:44 PM] Nation: Sennec:  Well, your friend Kalor is coming in, a patrol of guards found him back on the island. [1/6/2014 7:34:03 PM] Janis: Oh, good. He woke up. [1/6/2014 7:34:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) smiles slightly. "Glad to hear he is up and walking around." [1/6/2014 7:34:22 PM] Wynn (visor up): He was knocked out when our ship... crashed. [1/6/2014 7:35:45 PM] Nation: Sennec:  We'll be meeting him at the docks, then we'll go and talk to my supervisor. [1/6/2014 7:35:56 PM] Janis: Janis nods [1/6/2014 7:37:02 PM | Edited 7:37:07 PM] Kestrel: Good. [1/6/2014 7:37:22 PM] Wynn (visor up): We are anxious to learn whether we can help our ship or not. [1/6/2014 7:37:23 PM] Nation: He takes you to the docks, and Kalor is there, flanked by three guards. [1/6/2014 7:37:35 PM] Wynn (visor up): Kalor. How are you feeling? [1/6/2014 7:37:58 PM] Janis: ...what happened? [1/6/2014 7:38:02 PM] Kalor: Better than the others I found [1/6/2014 7:38:18 PM] Kalor: It seems most people on the island are dead. [1/6/2014 7:38:19 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) nods. "There was a murderer." [1/6/2014 7:38:37 PM] Janis: We killed him, and he turned to goo. [1/6/2014 7:38:44 PM] Janis: Clear, mucus-y goo. [1/6/2014 7:38:54 PM] Wynn (visor up): We were hoping you might know why. [1/6/2014 7:39:14 PM] Nation: Along with your friends, Kalor, there's a warforged there, dressed in workers clothes. "C'mon, we'll walk and talk." [1/6/2014 7:39:39 PM] Kalor: A mnemonic contamination, the guard said... [1/6/2014 7:39:50 PM] Janis: A what? [1/6/2014 7:40:29 PM] Kestrel: Magic. [1/6/2014 7:40:38 PM] Kalor: Something tells me this black goop that the plane is composed of responds to thoughts and memories. [1/6/2014 7:40:38 PM] Janis: Janis groans [1/6/2014 7:40:43 PM] Wynn (visor up): He's not in custody, is he, Sennec? [1/6/2014 7:40:49 PM] Janis: blah blah blah, Magic stuff. [1/6/2014 7:41:15 PM] Nation: Sennec shakes his head. "No.  They thought he might have done it, but I explained what I saw." [1/6/2014 7:41:22 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) nods. [1/6/2014 7:41:31 PM] Janis: Janis snickers [1/6/2014 7:41:58 PM | Edited 7:42:25 PM] Wynn (visor up): Kalor is not the type to get his hands dirty with a knife. [1/6/2014 7:42:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((ack! sorry)) [1/6/2014 7:42:10 PM] Kalor: They thought I might have done it? I am insulted my dear sir. I have only prepared nonlethal magic. *huffs* [1/6/2014 7:42:42 PM] Nation: Sennec:  They found six workers stabbed to death and you, a stranger, standing among them. [1/6/2014 7:42:47 PM] Kestrel: Kalor is not a murderer. [1/6/2014 7:43:00 PM] Kestrel: None of us is a murderer. [1/6/2014 7:43:03 PM] Nation: Sennec:  It's a natural leap to make. [1/6/2014 7:43:03 PM] Kalor: Stabbed to death, exactly. [1/6/2014 7:43:10 PM] Janis: ............................. [1/6/2014 7:43:15 PM] Kalor: I am armed with a crossbow. [1/6/2014 7:43:20 PM] Janis: Janis does not touch Kes's statement. [1/6/2014 7:43:28 PM] Wynn (visor up): I understand the worry, but we won't be needing the guards any longer. [1/6/2014 7:43:46 PM] Nation: Sennec:  They're coming to report what they saw. [1/6/2014 7:43:58 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) nods. "Then shall we go?" [1/6/2014 7:43:59 PM] Janis: Who is? [1/6/2014 7:44:13 PM] Nation: The three guards that came in on the boat with Kalor. [1/6/2014 7:44:21 PM] Janis: Ah [1/6/2014 7:44:23 PM] Janis: Ok then [1/6/2014 7:45:05 PM] Kestrel: We go, then. [1/6/2014 7:46:33 PM] Nation: He takes you through the town to the a rather plain, large building. "So... are you guys adventurers?  Most people who show up by Plane Shifting are. [1/6/2014 7:46:47 PM] Janis: Kinda, yeah. [1/6/2014 7:46:56 PM] Graaver: I'm not really... [1/6/2014 7:47:09 PM] Nilani: Nilani shrugs [1/6/2014 7:47:18 PM] Wynn (visor up): We certainly did not set out to be. [1/6/2014 7:47:42 PM] Nation: Sennec:  Just thought I should warn you that my boss is a dragon. [1/6/2014 7:47:53 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) 's eyebrows raise. [1/6/2014 7:48:01 PM] Nation: Sennec:  So... don't murder him. [1/6/2014 7:48:19 PM] Nilani: Nilani grins and nods [1/6/2014 7:48:25 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((most people use that as a metaphor.. lol)) [1/6/2014 7:48:27 PM] Janis: I only kill people that have to. [1/6/2014 7:48:45 PM] Kalor: I only kill evil dragons. [1/6/2014 7:48:53 PM] Graaver: Dragon? [1/6/2014 7:48:56 PM] Kalor: And only if I really have to. [1/6/2014 7:49:04 PM] Kestrel: No one is murdering *anyone.* [1/6/2014 7:49:07 PM] Kalor: Kalor smirks [1/6/2014 7:49:09 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) snickers. "When would you have killed a dragon, Kalor?" [1/6/2014 7:49:28 PM] Kalor: Right after I jumped the shark [1/6/2014 7:49:31 PM] Nilani: Nilani 's grin widens [1/6/2014 7:49:37 PM] Wynn (visor up): Regardless, we should cease this line of conversation before our host hears it. [1/6/2014 7:51:15 PM] Kestrel: It is disturbing. [1/6/2014 7:51:32 PM] Graaver: It would be interesting to meet a dragon though [1/6/2014 7:52:22 PM] Nation: He takes you into the building, which mostly seems to be offices. "Just saying.  Planeshifters have tried to kill him before.  Apparently 'being a dragon' is enough of a crime for some psychotic murder-hobos." [1/6/2014 7:52:33 PM] Nation: Sennec:  But he's a pretty good boss. [1/6/2014 7:52:55 PM] Graaver: Many people are simply intolerant. (frowns) [1/6/2014 7:53:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): Among us are a paladin and a priest of Pelor. I doubt he'll have much to worry about. [1/6/2014 7:53:40 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((unless he worries about paladins and priests of Pelor... in which case... )) [1/6/2014 7:53:59 PM] Nation: He takes you downstairs, where you find a large cavern, dominated by a huge blue dragon, who is apparently reading some papers that sit on a giant desk in front of him. [1/6/2014 7:54:21 PM] Graaver: ((Wow. Office dragon. Never seen that one.)) [1/6/2014 7:54:22 PM] Nation: Sennec:  Guys, this is my boss, Naarfilingus. [1/6/2014 7:54:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((very casually detect evil towards him... undetectable! lol)) [1/6/2014 7:54:31 PM] Nilani: ((who knows draconic?)) [1/6/2014 7:54:35 PM] Kalor: I greet him in draconic [1/6/2014 7:54:47 PM] Janis: ...don't you guys typically sit on piles of gold...? [1/6/2014 7:54:48 PM] Wynn (visor up): Greetings. [1/6/2014 7:54:57 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((23 diplo)) [1/6/2014 7:55:06 PM] Kestrel: ((I do.)) [1/6/2014 7:55:08 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Hello, hello. You are the new arrivals, then. [1/6/2014 7:55:13 PM] Nation: ((He's speaking common.)) [1/6/2014 7:55:20 PM] Graaver: Graaver bows slightly. [1/6/2014 7:55:25 PM] Janis: ((19 Dip on that comment btw)) [1/6/2014 7:55:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): We thank you for your hospitality. [1/6/2014 7:55:47 PM] Nilani: Nilani smiles warmly at Naarfi. [1/6/2014 7:56:01 PM] Wynn (visor up): We would like to speak about the potential for finding our ship, though. [1/6/2014 7:56:08 PM] Kalor: Kalor bows [1/6/2014 7:56:31 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Yes, Sennec here filled me in on your dilemma. It's definitely a new one. [1/6/2014 7:56:43 PM] Wynn (visor up): It is new to us as well. [1/6/2014 7:56:51 PM] Janis: You've never seen a living ship before? [1/6/2014 7:57:39 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Well, i've never seen one personally, but more specifically, one crashing into the soup. That's new. Everything else in the soup is very very old. [1/6/2014 7:59:23 PM] Nation: He picks up some of the documents, which are dragon sized, and eyes them. "We do scans of the soup every day, searching for large minable objects.  We haven't done today's yet, though.   Your ship was large, yes?" [1/6/2014 7:59:36 PM] Janis: We think so. [1/6/2014 7:59:41 PM] Wynn (visor up): ... Fairly. Though I could not say just how large. [1/6/2014 7:59:50 PM] Janis: We've never seen it from the outside. [1/6/2014 8:00:09 PM] Wynn (visor up): It is likely attached to the end of the mining shaft we came from, though. [1/6/2014 8:00:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): The real problem is that it is unresponsive. He has not communicated with us since the crash. [1/6/2014 8:00:39 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  If it's big, we'll pick it up almost immediately. [1/6/2014 8:01:08 PM] Janis: ....who makes those giant papers? [1/6/2014 8:01:20 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  They're enlarged for me. [1/6/2014 8:01:35 PM] Janis: ....oh.... [1/6/2014 8:01:47 PM] Kalor: It's a fairly simple spell [1/6/2014 8:02:36 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Hey, is it too late for me to join the fun? I'm loosely caught up. Naarfi's the boss, Kalor is here and recently jumped the shark, we're all clean, and Nation's still in the goo. Is there anything important I missed?)) [1/6/2014 8:02:57 PM] Janis: ((No, you've been following us zombie style)) [1/6/2014 8:03:02 PM] Kalor: ((Me playing Kalor as the Doctor? =p)) [1/6/2014 8:03:14 PM] Nation: ((Nope, you're fine. You've just been deep in contemplation.)) [1/6/2014 8:03:23 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Good deal.)) [1/6/2014 8:03:34 PM] Janis: ((Are you? I didn't get that impression. Which Doctor?)) [1/6/2014 8:04:39 PM] Kalor: ((With the deflection of obvious questions, getting the guards out of danger and being transported to the boss under armed guard? Tom Baker, obviously" [1/6/2014 8:04:45 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  So, once we find your ship, we should be able to pull it out. [1/6/2014 8:04:57 PM] Wynn (visor up): That would be much appreciated. [1/6/2014 8:05:08 PM] Janis: ((...I do see it now.  ...do you have a jelly baby? :P)) [1/6/2014 8:05:14 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  I'll just have some forms for you to fill out. [1/6/2014 8:05:28 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Back!)) [1/6/2014 8:05:31 PM] Wynn (visor up): Of course. [1/6/2014 8:05:40 PM] Kalor: ((Nation isn't letting me use the errata rules for prestidigitation, so no =p)) [1/6/2014 8:05:44 PM] Kestrel: How long will the forms take? [1/6/2014 8:06:24 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) finally stops staring at the dragon and dry-swallowing. [1/6/2014 8:07:22 PM] Kalor: Lira, are you ok? You look like you've seen... Well, more ghosts than normal. [1/6/2014 8:07:47 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Yes. I am glad that you've joined us. Heard you bumped your head. [1/6/2014 8:07:58 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): You haven't touched the goo stuff, have you? [1/6/2014 8:08:12 PM] Kalor: Kalor rubs his head, finds a lump and winces. [1/6/2014 8:08:16 PM] Kalor: It appears so... [1/6/2014 8:08:38 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Not long. I'm afraid it's a bit of a necessity. You fill out a stack of forms, and we can say that the Utlan-Tari Corporation is helping you as charity. Otherwise I'd be forced to charge you an exorbitant sum for the manpower and use of our equipment. [1/6/2014 8:08:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): Just to be sure, your detoxification process should work for persons who had the "soup" pierce their skin, right? [1/6/2014 8:09:21 PM] Wynn (visor up): Our companion was shot by a bolt covered in the stuff. [1/6/2014 8:09:21 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Wynn pointedly. [1/6/2014 8:09:27 PM | Edited 8:09:55 PM] Graaver: Graaver nudges Kelor. "You should probably look at the papers too." [1/6/2014 8:09:41 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel starts working on the forms, if she's allowed. [1/6/2014 8:09:49 PM] Nation: ((You don't have the forms yet.)) [1/6/2014 8:09:49 PM] Kalor: Kalor looks at the forms [1/6/2014 8:10:31 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Lira- what? lol)) [1/6/2014 8:10:33 PM] Nilani: ((SM on the dragon's last statement: 17)) [1/6/2014 8:11:18 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  My secretary will get you the forms. I don't have them here. [1/6/2014 8:11:20 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Lira thinks you're over-worrying. That water we bathed in had soooo many spells.)) [1/6/2014 8:11:28 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) nods blankly. [1/6/2014 8:11:32 PM] Janis: ...what's a secretary? [1/6/2014 8:11:34 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((It's what I do :) )) [1/6/2014 8:12:15 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  And yes, so far, the detoxification process seems to cure any ill effects from exposure to the soup. [1/6/2014 8:12:16 PM] Kestrel: Someone who helps a business person. [1/6/2014 8:12:31 PM] Kalor: So this... Soup? What is it exactly? [1/6/2014 8:12:34 PM] Janis: ...........what's a business person do? [1/6/2014 8:12:38 PM] Kestrel: Typically they take dictation, write letters and perform other tasks. [1/6/2014 8:12:43 PM] Kestrel: Business people make money. [1/6/2014 8:12:45 PM] Janis: Dead God bits. [1/6/2014 8:12:51 PM] Janis: ((To Kalor)) [1/6/2014 8:12:54 PM] Kalor: Oh! [1/6/2014 8:13:05 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Kalor. "Don't touch the stuff." [1/6/2014 8:13:10 PM] Kalor: Oh, that is not good... [1/6/2014 8:13:13 PM] Kestrel: I was not permitted to bring a sample back to you. [1/6/2014 8:13:52 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Yes. They are bits of dead deities that collect here. Not the souls, not the divine sparks, just the remainders. And since gods are really just ideas.... the soup, as we call it here, is pure, distilled ideas. [1/6/2014 8:13:59 PM] Kalor: It's worse than I thought, this isn't merely a psychoreactive material, it's full spectrum. [1/6/2014 8:14:26 PM] Janis: ...blah blah blah, magic stuff. [1/6/2014 8:14:32 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) smirks a bit. [1/6/2014 8:14:47 PM] Janis: ((Now you sound more McCoy. Very Professor Doctor.)) [1/6/2014 8:15:01 PM] Graaver: We do seem to always be around a lot of magic. [1/6/2014 8:15:23 PM] Kalor: ((He's my second favorite, I love Sylvester =p) [1/6/2014 8:15:39 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((blah blah blah dr. who stuff.)) [1/6/2014 8:15:43 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((:P)) [1/6/2014 8:15:50 PM] Janis: ((McCoy is among my favorites, not sure where though)) [1/6/2014 8:15:52 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) clears her throat. "Well then... if it's ok with you, we'll get started on those forms." [1/6/2014 8:16:01 PM] Nation: ((Next time, I will send you to the plane of very boring things, if you want.  It is a grey flat plain with some rocks and a tree.)) [1/6/2014 8:16:08 PM] Wynn (visor up): Indeed. We do not know how our ship will react to this soup. [1/6/2014 8:16:20 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((doesn't sound boring at all!)) [1/6/2014 8:16:21 PM] Graaver: ((Plenty of space for meditation)) [1/6/2014 8:16:31 PM] Janis: And it sounds like we don't want to wait long enough to find out. [1/6/2014 8:16:39 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Indeed. [1/6/2014 8:16:50 PM] Kestrel: ((Please don't send us to North Dakota, I already live here!)) [1/6/2014 8:16:59 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((snort)) [1/6/2014 8:17:36 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Of course. Mister Kellen will get you those forms, and I will let you know the moment we do today's scans of the soup and find your ship. [1/6/2014 8:17:46 PM] Wynn (visor up): Thank you. [1/6/2014 8:17:47 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel nods. [1/6/2014 8:17:51 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Thank you. [1/6/2014 8:17:57 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) bows and thanks the dragon in Draconic [1/6/2014 8:18:02 PM] Graaver: Graaver bows again. [1/6/2014 8:18:04 PM] Janis: ((Now I know why I don't trust these people.)) [1/6/2014 8:18:06 PM] Kalor: Yes... Thank you. [1/6/2014 8:18:06 PM] Kestrel: I would like to go into the city to make a purchase, if that would be acceptable. [1/6/2014 8:18:10 PM] Janis: ((They're businessmen :P)) [1/6/2014 8:18:18 PM] Janis: Janis nods [1/6/2014 8:18:35 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Untill then I"ll put you up in one of the local pubs.  Yes, of course, whatever you need, you're my guests. [1/6/2014 8:18:41 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'd certainly like to know if my javelins could be replaced here. [1/6/2014 8:18:55 PM] Janis: ...um...can we stay in a local pub? [1/6/2014 8:19:10 PM] Kalor: Kalor mumbles "There's no way to predict how the material will react to a living magical construct..." [1/6/2014 8:19:16 PM] Janis: Nation said if we stay off ship too long, we might get sucked back up. [1/6/2014 8:19:48 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'm sure Jhett would likely get worried eventually as well. [1/6/2014 8:19:56 PM] Kestrel: There is no way to predict how a living magical construct will react to the material. [1/6/2014 8:20:06 PM] Kalor: Right now the more immediate problem is if Nation will get sucked up... Or if he will suck something else up instead. [1/6/2014 8:20:09 PM] Wynn (visor up): But if we do have Nation rescued by the end of the day, it will be a moot point. [1/6/2014 8:20:23 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): We should stay in the pub for now. [1/6/2014 8:20:45 PM] Nation: Sennec:  I'll have to stay here and give my full report. [1/6/2014 8:20:58 PM] Janis: Shouldn't we be there for that? [1/6/2014 8:21:00 PM] Wynn (visor up): Thank you for your assistance, Sennec. [1/6/2014 8:21:11 PM] Janis: We were witnesses as well, and active in the felon's capture. [1/6/2014 8:21:19 PM] Nation: Sennec:  No, I've got it. [1/6/2014 8:21:24 PM] Janis: ...ok... [1/6/2014 8:21:27 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) tries to sense Sennec's motive! [1/6/2014 8:21:36 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): (music) [1/6/2014 8:21:50 PM] Janis: ((Nat 20 on SM Sennec)) [1/6/2014 8:21:54 PM] Janis: ((23)) [1/6/2014 8:22:00 PM] Kestrel: Thank you. [1/6/2014 8:22:05 PM] Wynn (visor up): Janis, do you have the armor? Perhaps he would recognize it. [1/6/2014 8:22:08 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel departs! [1/6/2014 8:22:21 PM] Janis: Janis nods and hands the breastplate to Wynn. [1/6/2014 8:22:44 PM] Wynn (visor up): One last thing. The murderer was wearing this armor. Do you recognize it? [1/6/2014 8:23:04 PM] Janis: There's a marking on the breast plate. A white circle. [1/6/2014 8:23:21 PM] Wynn (visor up): Perhaps a rival company? [1/6/2014 8:23:22 PM] Nation: Naarfi inspects it. "I do not, I'm afraid." [1/6/2014 8:23:44 PM] Nilani: ((SM: 23)) [1/6/2014 8:24:04 PM | Edited 8:25:06 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) nods. "I thought you should be aware of all the evidence of the incident, in case you did recognize it." [1/6/2014 8:25:04 PM] Nation: Naarfi:  Thank you. [1/6/2014 8:25:33 PM] Janis: He also turned to clear goo. [1/6/2014 8:25:34 PM] Nation: A pleasant looking dwarf gentleman hands Kalor a stack of forms! [1/6/2014 8:25:36 PM] Janis: That might mean something. [1/6/2014 8:25:51 PM] Nation: Sennec: Don't worry, I won't leave anything out. I saw it all, remember? [1/6/2014 8:25:56 PM] Kalor: Kalor starts looking through the forms [1/6/2014 8:25:58 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) goes over to Kalor and takes a look at the forms. [1/6/2014 8:26:14 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): I'm sorry I forgot to ask earlier: friend Kalor, are you alright after your fall? [1/6/2014 8:26:17 PM] Janis: Janis tries to catch a glimpse of the forms too. [1/6/2014 8:26:25 PM] Wynn (visor up): Kalor, do you need help with the forms? [1/6/2014 8:26:44 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((welcome back. here's some paperwork.)) [1/6/2014 8:26:53 PM] Nation: Do you guys take your leave? [1/6/2014 8:27:04 PM] Janis: ((I think so.)) [1/6/2014 8:27:13 PM] Graaver: ((I'll follow everybody else. This is all a bit over my head.)) [1/6/2014 8:27:18 PM] Kalor: I took a rather painful lump on the head, but nothing broken, it seems [1/6/2014 8:27:31 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Glad to hear. [1/6/2014 8:27:40 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Yeah I'll head to the pub)) [1/6/2014 8:27:45 PM] Janis: Janis heads out [1/6/2014 8:27:47 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((We'll go wherever the gu wants us to to fill out the forms)) [1/6/2014 8:27:56 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((and some will go to the pub/market. lol)) [1/6/2014 8:27:56 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) heads towards the pub. [1/6/2014 8:28:08 PM] Kalor: Oh well... [1/6/2014 8:28:11 PM] Nation: There's a nice pub right across the street from the building. And a market district. [1/6/2014 8:28:17 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): I'm happy to help with the forms if I can be of assistance. [1/6/2014 8:28:19 PM] Kalor: Kalor starts filling out the forms [1/6/2014 8:28:43 PM] Graaver: Graaver follows Janis around unless something interesting happens.' [1/6/2014 8:28:54 PM] Nation: Everyone can roll Decipher Script on the forms, if you got it. [1/6/2014 8:28:59 PM] Nation: LEGALESE. [1/6/2014 8:29:11 PM] Nation: HOT BUREAUCRATIC NONSENSE. [1/6/2014 8:29:15 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Nat 1!)) [1/6/2014 8:29:19 PM] Janis: ((Janis rolled a 17)) [1/6/2014 8:29:24 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((it is trained only, btw)) [1/6/2014 8:29:29 PM] Nation: ((Yep.)) [1/6/2014 8:29:35 PM] Kalor: ((19)) [1/6/2014 8:29:38 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Oh, nevermind, then.) [1/6/2014 8:29:44 PM] Janis: ((Oh, nevermind, I can't even roll)) [1/6/2014 8:29:51 PM] Janis: ((I'm not trained at all)) [1/6/2014 8:29:52 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Larry, Cleric (Adam) realizes how little help I can be, and heads to the pub. [1/6/2014 8:30:06 PM] Nation: Well, I figured you guys were going to the pub to fill out the forms. [1/6/2014 8:30:50 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Oh, nevermind, then. I just won't help with the forms.)) [1/6/2014 8:30:58 PM] Kalor: ((It's typical that I roll bad even though I have invested in the skill...)) [1/6/2014 8:31:16 PM] Janis: ((I just realized something.  I think I left with that magic book Lira gave me last night)) [1/6/2014 8:31:44 PM] Graaver: ((I do remember you carrying a book)) [1/6/2014 8:31:52 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((I guess we're at the pub then... lol)) [1/6/2014 8:32:00 PM] Nilani: Nilani lightly grabs one of the forms and scans its contents stonefacedly. (if there are multiple types, I grab one of each) [1/6/2014 8:32:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): Kalor, do you need any assistance with the paperwork? [1/6/2014 8:32:32 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) winces a little at the noise in the pub and finds a place to sit near her party members. [1/6/2014 8:32:53 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) looks around to see if Janis is nearby. [1/6/2014 8:33:04 PM] Janis: Janis waves. [1/6/2014 8:33:08 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) smiles. [1/6/2014 8:33:26 PM] Janis: Janis smiles back, but mostly looks bored. [1/6/2014 8:33:36 PM] Kalor: Basically it seems to be exactly as he says. By signing this we accept that it's an act of charity. [1/6/2014 8:34:12 PM] Nation: The place is pretty busy, really, there's a bard and people eating and drinking, lots of different races. Quite a few kobolds and other dragon-blooded types, too. [1/6/2014 8:34:15 PM] Wynn (visor up): Understandable. [1/6/2014 8:34:17 PM] Kalor: Um, Bahamut does charity right? I figure that a dragon god is all about business, but he's supposed to be one of the good guys, right? [1/6/2014 8:34:42 PM] Wynn (visor up): It does not mention anything about payment? [1/6/2014 8:34:56 PM] Kalor: Not from what I can tell. [1/6/2014 8:34:56 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): What choice do we have...? [1/6/2014 8:35:01 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): We have to save Nation. [1/6/2014 8:35:11 PM] Janis: Janis sulks [1/6/2014 8:35:13 PM] Janis: This sucks. [1/6/2014 8:35:20 PM] Wynn (visor up): Indeed, Lira. [1/6/2014 8:35:28 PM] Wynn (visor up): I just prefer to know when I am walking into a trap. [1/6/2014 8:35:48 PM] Wynn (visor up): I have no reason to doubt the dragon or Sennec, though. [1/6/2014 8:35:54 PM] Wynn (visor up): We should finish quickly. [1/6/2014 8:36:11 PM] Kalor: Well, this paperwork seems to be sincere [1/6/2014 8:36:17 PM] Wynn (visor up): And I'd like to look at the market. My javelins were sorely missed during the fight. [1/6/2014 8:36:26 PM] Kalor: So I have no reason to doubt them either. [1/6/2014 8:36:33 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Then it's settled. [1/6/2014 8:36:33 PM] Janis: Naarfi is part of a really bad group. We can't trust him. [1/6/2014 8:36:44 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Janis with confusion. [1/6/2014 8:36:44 PM] Wynn (visor up): Why do you say that, Janis? [1/6/2014 8:36:44 PM] Graaver: What's the bad group? [1/6/2014 8:36:54 PM] Janis: Isn't it obvious...? [1/6/2014 8:36:59 PM] Janis: Businessmen. [1/6/2014 8:37:06 PM] Nilani: Nilani grins [1/6/2014 8:37:17 PM] Graaver: Graaver laughs lightly. [1/6/2014 8:37:17 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks nonplussed. "So?" [1/6/2014 8:37:26 PM] Janis: My mom described them as criminals who don't break the law. [1/6/2014 8:37:37 PM] Wynn (visor up): There is no such thing. [1/6/2014 8:37:41 PM] Kalor: She is very observant. [1/6/2014 8:37:51 PM] Janis: ((Show of hands, who here thought Janis hated dragons?)) [1/6/2014 8:37:56 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((me!)) [1/6/2014 8:38:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((nope)) [1/6/2014 8:38:21 PM] Nilani: ((I thought she saw its hide was chromatic or something)) [1/6/2014 8:38:40 PM] Janis: ((I'm not sure she'd even know what that means.)) [1/6/2014 8:38:41 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((blue dragons are typically LE, but I didn't sense evil)) [1/6/2014 8:38:43 PM] Nation: ((Hey, Bahamut is Lawful Good. Bureacracy is super-Lawful.)) [1/6/2014 8:39:01 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((that's why wynn doesn't distrust them! lol forms=law)) [1/6/2014 8:39:14 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) casts Detect Magic on the forms. [1/6/2014 8:39:23 PM] Nation: They are just paper. [1/6/2014 8:39:31 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((we are quite paranoid, aren't we?)) [1/6/2014 8:39:47 PM] Janis: There's nothing about us having to do something for them, is there? [1/6/2014 8:39:57 PM] Graaver: ((Graaver thinks you all need to loosen up)) [1/6/2014 8:40:04 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Let's sign it and get on with it, then. [1/6/2014 8:40:08 PM] Kalor: Nope, it's all supposedly charity. [1/6/2014 8:40:11 PM] Wynn (visor up): Well, I think you have this in hand. I think I'll go to the market. Janis, would you like to come along? [1/6/2014 8:40:14 PM] Janis: Janis groans. "Fine" [1/6/2014 8:40:25 PM] Janis: No, I'm good. [1/6/2014 8:40:38 PM] Nation: ((This was the episode that Janis was more intolerant than Wynn.)) [1/6/2014 8:40:47 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Ha!)) [1/6/2014 8:40:47 PM] Kalor: I would very much want to look around for any interesting spell scrolls they may have... [1/6/2014 8:40:47 PM] Janis: ((:P)) [1/6/2014 8:40:52 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) raises an eyebrow. "No? Not too boring for you here?" [1/6/2014 8:41:00 PM] Nilani: ((my parents are muttering at me. See you in 10 mins or not at all. Assume I signed the forms and went off into the marketplace if I am not able to return.)) [1/6/2014 8:41:12 PM] Janis: Janis looks over at Lira [1/6/2014 8:41:21 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) blinks. "Yes?" [1/6/2014 8:41:28 PM] Nation: And no tricks this time! They accept gold at this marketplace. [1/6/2014 8:41:28 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) shrugs. "Suit yourself. Be careful." [1/6/2014 8:41:39 PM] Kalor: ((I'll just sign it and go to the market to look for spells)) [1/6/2014 8:41:40 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) leaves to find javelins! [1/6/2014 8:41:50 PM] Nation: It takes about an hour to fill out the forms. [1/6/2014 8:42:08 PM] Janis: Janis pulls out the book Lira gave me and reads it. [1/6/2014 8:42:18 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Can we do something about the unresolved book?)) [1/6/2014 8:42:23 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Like a roll? Or something?)) [1/6/2014 8:42:26 PM] Janis: ((Please?)) [1/6/2014 8:42:40 PM] Janis: ((At least figure out what it is)) [1/6/2014 8:42:41 PM] Nation: ((What? It's a book? Non magical. I don't know what you expect.) [1/6/2014 8:42:46 PM] Kalor: ((See? This is why prestidigitation errata rules are useful, I could've filled them out in five minutes with my mind... =p)) [1/6/2014 8:43:04 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Yeah but it's for Janis' lack of magic ability)) [1/6/2014 8:43:16 PM] Nation: ((So it's a book about magic?)) [1/6/2014 8:43:20 PM] Nation: ((I guess?)) [1/6/2014 8:43:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((lol... Nation: It says whatever Janis needs it to say to get the greatest amount of plot from her character.)) [1/6/2014 8:43:45 PM] Kalor: ((Probably Tenser's "The Art made easy")) [1/6/2014 8:43:47 PM] Nation: ((There we go.)) [1/6/2014 8:44:09 PM] Kalor: ((Kalor read that one in preschool)) [1/6/2014 8:44:09 PM] Janis: Janis tries a simple spell in the book and it doesn't work. [1/6/2014 8:44:21 PM] Janis: Janis tries again, still nothing. [1/6/2014 8:45:02 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks over Janis' movements and thinks about her pronounciation, troubled. [1/6/2014 8:45:14 PM] Nation: You guys can buy whatever mundane or masterwork items you want in the marketplace. [1/6/2014 8:45:20 PM] Janis: Janis sees Lira looking and blushes [1/6/2014 8:45:25 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Sweet. book prices?)) [1/6/2014 8:45:31 PM] Kalor: ((No spells?)) [1/6/2014 8:45:40 PM] Janis: ((Ok, who's at the market and who's in the pub?)) [1/6/2014 8:45:53 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): I can't seem to find anything wrong. It must be something in your head, or... some kind of curse, perhaps? [1/6/2014 8:45:57 PM] Janis: ((Cause we should split if we're gonna split)) [1/6/2014 8:46:02 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((At the pub. Nothing I need to buy right now.)) [1/6/2014 8:46:47 PM] Graaver: ((Are there any items that increase grapple rolls?)) [1/6/2014 8:46:54 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Lol!)) [1/6/2014 8:46:54 PM] Nation: ((Never, nowhere.)) [1/6/2014 8:47:33 PM] Kalor: ((The only thing I'm looking for is level 1 and 2 spells. I need more variety.)) [1/6/2014 8:48:08 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) tries casting Read Magic for Janis..? [1/6/2014 8:48:12 PM] Nation: WHo's going and who's staying? [1/6/2014 8:48:15 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Pub)) [1/6/2014 8:48:20 PM] Janis: ((Pub)) [1/6/2014 8:48:43 PM] Graaver: ((Pub)) [1/6/2014 8:48:56 PM] Nation: ((okay.)) [1/6/2014 8:49:13 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Nilani is market, or so she said)) [1/6/2014 8:49:25 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((shopping)) [1/6/2014 8:49:26 PM] Janis: ((So are wynn and kes)) [1/6/2014 8:49:27 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Pub)) [1/6/2014 8:50:26 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) tries to concentrate on the forms, since Kalor is out shopping. [1/6/2014 8:51:00 PM] Nation: It's really just boring. But there's food here, at least. And ahalfway decent bard. [1/6/2014 8:51:27 PM] Janis: Janis listens to the bard and scoffs. [1/6/2014 8:51:28 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) helps herself to some food and will work through the forms as much as she is able. [1/6/2014 8:51:34 PM] Janis: ((Mutters)) Amateur. [1/6/2014 8:51:44 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((o boy..)) [1/6/2014 8:51:52 PM] Janis: ((Hipster Janis)) [1/6/2014 8:52:42 PM] Graaver: Graaver goes and drops a gold in the bard's hat or whatever with a smile adn nod. [1/6/2014 8:52:58 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Larry, Cleric (Adam) eats some food, and tries to take his mind off of everything else. [1/6/2014 8:53:43 PM] Janis: Janis grabs a drink (non-alcoholic, obviously) [1/6/2014 8:53:58 PM] Janis: ...hey Lira? [1/6/2014 8:54:02 PM] Nation: They have delicious fruit juice! [1/6/2014 8:54:03 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Yes Janis? [1/6/2014 8:54:07 PM] Janis: Are you busy? [1/6/2014 8:54:44 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) pauses from filling out the forms. "A little. What's on your mind?" [1/6/2014 8:55:06 PM] Janis: ...you talked about curses before. How do those typically manifest? [1/6/2014 8:55:21 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): There's many ways... [1/6/2014 8:55:32 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Do I need a check for this haha?)) [1/6/2014 8:55:58 PM] Janis: ((Not sure...I am trying to remember what background stuff I worked out with which DM :P)) [1/6/2014 8:57:00 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): For example, there was young lad I used to know. He was devout to some Deity or other. One day, said Deity saw fit to give him a blessing, paired with a curse. [1/6/2014 8:57:22 PM] Janis: How so? [1/6/2014 8:58:49 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Before, he was a simple man. Afterwards, there are those that said he ate gold. I do not know the nature of his blessing. Sometimes, they're all but impossible to detect. There are those infused with divine magic who can remove curses. [1/6/2014 8:59:11 PM] Janis: ...he ate gold? [1/6/2014 8:59:40 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Yes. It was said that he ate his family out of all of their gold. [1/6/2014 8:59:59 PM] Janis: ...ew...also sad. [1/6/2014 9:00:18 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): You have to be careful what you ask for... [1/6/2014 9:00:25 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Janis meaningfully. [1/6/2014 9:00:36 PM] Janis: Janis nods [1/6/2014 9:00:53 PM] Janis: And there are Gods and stuff who can remove curses? [1/6/2014 9:01:10 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Anyone with divine power... I believe. [1/6/2014 9:01:18 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Perhaps you could ask Wynn. [1/6/2014 9:01:34 PM] Janis: I'm not sure it's a good idea to get Wynn involved. [1/6/2014 9:01:38 PM] Nation: Roll notice, you guys! [1/6/2014 9:01:50 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((10, I'm focused on Janis)) [1/6/2014 9:01:53 PM] Janis: ((15)) [1/6/2014 9:02:00 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((conversations op)) [1/6/2014 9:02:15 PM] Graaver: (Oh I"m not focused on aything) [1/6/2014 9:02:18 PM | Removed 9:02:33 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): This message has been removed. [1/6/2014 9:02:23 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((6.)) [1/6/2014 9:02:30 PM] Graaver: ((10)) [1/6/2014 9:02:38 PM] Janis: ((The dice have betrayed us)) [1/6/2014 9:02:47 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((we're doomed!)) [1/6/2014 9:03:11 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) shrugs. "As you wish." [1/6/2014 9:03:15 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) returns to the forms. [1/6/2014 9:03:50 PM] Janis: I just don't want her to worry. [1/6/2014 9:03:55 PM] Janis: She does that a lot. [1/6/2014 9:04:24 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) nods. "It is difficult not to worry about Nation." [1/6/2014 9:04:34 PM] Janis: Yeah.  I hope he's ok. [1/6/2014 9:04:39 PM] Janis: And Talas. [1/6/2014 9:05:06 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) frowns a little. "The sooner we get him out of the soup the better..." [1/6/2014 9:05:29 PM] Janis: I'm still worried about the attacker. [1/6/2014 9:05:39 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): The guy who shot me? [1/6/2014 9:05:43 PM] Janis: Yeah. [1/6/2014 9:05:52 PM] Janis: The more I think about it...it was weird. [1/6/2014 9:05:57 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Weird how? [1/6/2014 9:06:14 PM] Janis: Ok, we assume he's the one who murdered all seven people, right? [1/6/2014 9:06:25 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Ok. [1/6/2014 9:06:34 PM] Janis: Then why coat all his weapons in the goop? [1/6/2014 9:06:46 PM] Janis: Isn't the point of that stuff that it's full of ideas? [1/6/2014 9:06:55 PM] Janis: That's not deadly. [1/6/2014 9:07:08 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Perhaps he did not do it on purpose. His armor was such that it seemed he had swimmed in the soup. [1/6/2014 9:07:14 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): The soup must've gotten on his weapons. [1/6/2014 9:07:30 PM] Janis: Not on the hilt. [1/6/2014 9:07:37 PM] Janis: At least, not that I saw. [1/6/2014 9:08:05 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Janis with concern. "If he didn't murder the people, then who did..?" [1/6/2014 9:08:13 PM] Janis: ...maybe...all of them. [1/6/2014 9:08:31 PM] Janis: The struggle was really random, there were no particular trails to follow. [1/6/2014 9:08:44 PM] Janis: And the goop can fill your head with violent ideas... [1/6/2014 9:08:53 PM] Janis: ...maybe he wasn't the perpetrator... [1/6/2014 9:08:58 PM] Janis: Maybe, he was the only surviving victim. [1/6/2014 9:09:01 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): You think that they all got goop? [1/6/2014 9:09:08 PM] Janis: It's possible. [1/6/2014 9:09:24 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): That doesn't make sense. We didn't see any goop on the corpses, did we? [1/6/2014 9:09:46 PM] Janis: But when Wynn touched it, it went right into her skin. [1/6/2014 9:10:03 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) hesitates. "That is true..." [1/6/2014 9:10:10 PM] Janis: ((Need to pee, brb)) [1/6/2014 9:11:40 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): But it was still on the dagger and the sword. [1/6/2014 9:11:47 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): But not on the bolt that hit friend Lira. [1/6/2014 9:12:23 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Perhaps we were too hasty... [1/6/2014 9:12:42 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) thinks through the events carefully. [1/6/2014 9:13:20 PM] Janis: ((back)) [1/6/2014 9:13:39 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): He still had a lot of goop on him. I don't think we could've trusted him. [1/6/2014 9:13:39 PM] Janis: Are we sure it wasn't on the bolt? [1/6/2014 9:13:48 PM] Janis: We did detox you. [1/6/2014 9:14:46 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): I can't say. If it was on the bolt, it went in me. [1/6/2014 9:14:51 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): I know it wasn't on the bolt, because I had it. [1/6/2014 9:14:56 PM] Janis: ...and? [1/6/2014 9:15:13 PM] Janis: You pulled it our of Lira and we've established it can be absorbed into flesh. [1/6/2014 9:15:24 PM] Janis: How do we know it didn't all just get sucked in? [1/6/2014 9:15:37 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Exactly. But the dagger and short sword were still covered in goo. [1/6/2014 9:15:46 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) returns to the table. [1/6/2014 9:15:50 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) whirls! [1/6/2014 9:15:55 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): But that means! [1/6/2014 9:16:00 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): He couldn't have been the attacker! [1/6/2014 9:16:03 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Exactly. [1/6/2014 9:16:11 PM] Wynn (visor up): What... what are you talking about? [1/6/2014 9:16:30 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Unless he dipped them fresh into the goo when he appeared there. [1/6/2014 9:16:40 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ...I guess that's possible... [1/6/2014 9:16:46 PM | Edited 9:16:58 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): To Wynn: We're talking about the assailant [1/6/2014 9:16:55 PM] Wynn (visor up): Have any of you seen Kestrel since we left the dragon? [1/6/2014 9:17:00 PM] Wynn (visor up): She was not in the marketplace. [1/6/2014 9:17:10 PM] Janis: ...I thought she was with you. [1/6/2014 9:17:14 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) shakes her head. [1/6/2014 9:17:58 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Something doesn't add up about the attack. And the fact that friend Kestrel is missing makes that even more worrisome. [1/6/2014 9:18:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): I thought she might have gone on another secret shopping spree, but the man I spoke to knew of no place that sells items under the table. [1/6/2014 9:18:23 PM] Janis: What about Nilani? [1/6/2014 9:18:31 PM] Janis: Do you still know where she is? [1/6/2014 9:18:49 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks very puzzled. [1/6/2014 9:19:09 PM] Wynn (visor up): I saw her shopping for a dagger. [1/6/2014 9:19:59 PM] Kalor: ((Master's touch would have been so cool *Sigh* No weapon proficiency for me I guess...)) [1/6/2014 9:20:16 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) returns to the forms for now. [1/6/2014 9:20:32 PM] Wynn (visor up): Those aren't done yet? Do you need help? [1/6/2014 9:21:09 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): It's just very boring. Want to split it? [1/6/2014 9:21:21 PM] Wynn (visor up): Sure. Tedium is my specialty. [1/6/2014 9:21:41 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) splits the remainder of the forms in half... or close to half... and hands Wynn one of the halves. [1/6/2014 9:22:00 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) sits and starts to fill them out... as honestly as possible, of course! [1/6/2014 9:22:18 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Back shortly.)) [1/6/2014 9:22:37 PM] Janis: ((Can I roll notice to look around? Make sure Kes didn't slip back in or someone isn't out to attack us)) [1/6/2014 9:22:44 PM] Nation: Sure. [1/6/2014 9:22:56 PM] Janis: ((19)) [1/6/2014 9:22:58 PM] Wynn (visor up): I did not want to rush back here about Kestrel... I did not want you to think I was keeping an eye on her. [1/6/2014 9:23:10 PM] Wynn (visor up): However, I did realize I had not seen her in a while. [1/6/2014 9:23:26 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) nods. "For now, this takes priority. We'll see about Kes afterwards." [1/6/2014 9:23:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) nods. [1/6/2014 9:23:39 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) continues through the forms. [1/6/2014 9:24:36 PM] Nation: It is boring bureacraticese. But it does seem pretty straightforward bureaucraticese. [1/6/2014 9:25:01 PM] Janis: Janis looks around the pub, cautiously. [1/6/2014 9:25:12 PM] Kalor: ((Wow, hypnotism is awesome... It's like everything you wished charm person was, but more.)) [1/6/2014 9:25:17 PM] Nation: You do not notice Kestrel. [1/6/2014 9:25:34 PM] Janis: When did you last see Kes? [1/6/2014 9:25:47 PM] Wynn (visor up): When we were speaking to the dragon. [1/6/2014 9:25:49 PM] Kalor: ((Especially that last part "A creature that fails its saving throw does not remember that you enspelled it.")) [1/6/2014 9:25:50 PM] Wynn (visor up): She left first. [1/6/2014 9:26:00 PM] Nilani: Nilani walks in and looks for the group. [1/6/2014 9:26:09 PM] Janis: Janis nods [1/6/2014 9:26:27 PM] Janis: ((I wish I had K: Local right now)) [1/6/2014 9:26:37 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Gather info?)) [1/6/2014 9:26:50 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((oh... tha'ts not a skill...)) [1/6/2014 9:27:02 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): (( /must be thinking of another D&D version)) [1/6/2014 9:27:22 PM] Janis: ((I think Gather Info got merged with K: Local by the house rules)) [1/6/2014 9:27:28 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((gather info is house-ruled into diplomacy)) [1/6/2014 9:27:32 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Oh!)) [1/6/2014 9:27:47 PM] Janis: ((Hmm, maybe I can try some of that then)) [1/6/2014 9:27:50 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((so i'd actually be good at it. lol)) [1/6/2014 9:28:10 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((go ask some kobolds/dragons about our friend! :D)) [1/6/2014 9:28:15 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((seriously... are we still not done with these? lol)) [1/6/2014 9:28:30 PM] Nilani: Nilani finally finds the group and sits near them. [1/6/2014 9:28:41 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) finishes her stack! [1/6/2014 9:28:55 PM] Janis: Maybe I should go into the market. [1/6/2014 9:28:59 PM] Janis: See if I can find Kes. [1/6/2014 9:29:02 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) frowns. [1/6/2014 9:29:11 PM] Janis: Graaver. You wanna come? [1/6/2014 9:29:20 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) finishes too! [1/6/2014 9:29:35 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'll go take these back and see what I can find. [1/6/2014 9:29:43 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) hands Wynn her half. [1/6/2014 9:30:08 PM] Nation: You guys get the forms filled out between you guys. Kalor started it, Lira worked on it after him, and Wynn helped with teh last bit, so you're good. [1/6/2014 9:30:13 PM] Wynn (visor up): Be careful, Janis. [1/6/2014 9:30:26 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel returns to the group. [1/6/2014 9:30:26 PM] Janis: ((Is Graaver here?)) [1/6/2014 9:30:34 PM] Wynn (visor up): Oh. [1/6/2014 9:30:35 PM] Janis: Oh, Kes. [1/6/2014 9:30:35 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Oh there you are Kes [1/6/2014 9:30:41 PM] Kestrel: Yes. [1/6/2014 9:30:42 PM] Janis: We were about to go looking for you. [1/6/2014 9:30:47 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'll be back. [1/6/2014 9:30:51 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) leaves! [1/6/2014 9:30:51 PM] Nilani: Nilani smiles warmly at Kestrel [1/6/2014 9:30:59 PM] Kestrel: ... the return point is the galley. [1/6/2014 9:31:00 PM] Janis: ...ok then... [1/6/2014 9:31:10 PM] Janis: ...return point? [1/6/2014 9:31:15 PM] Kalor: Kalor waves at Kestrel [1/6/2014 9:31:22 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) helps herself to some more food. [1/6/2014 9:31:23 PM] Kestrel: Where we said we would meet if separated forcibly. [1/6/2014 9:31:32 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel nods solemnly at Kalor. [1/6/2014 9:31:42 PM] Nation: ((Where is Wynn going?)) [1/6/2014 9:31:49 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Back to Mr. Dragon with forms)) [1/6/2014 9:32:02 PM] Graaver: ((Ok I spaced out cause I wasn't seeing anything to RP into)) [1/6/2014 9:32:13 PM] Janis: ...back on the ship? [1/6/2014 9:32:26 PM] Janis: We were supposed to meet back on the ship? [1/6/2014 9:32:30 PM] Nation: ((Brb myself for a few. Talk amongst yourselves.)) [1/6/2014 9:32:36 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) returns. [1/6/2014 9:32:45 PM] Wynn (visor up): They think it will still be a few hours. [1/6/2014 9:32:48 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) turns to Wynn. [1/6/2014 9:32:49 PM] Kestrel: Yes. Should you not have been here, I would have returned there. [1/6/2014 9:32:59 PM] Graaver: brb [1/6/2014 9:33:12 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Wynn, back to the matter we were discussing previously. The assailant had goop on his weapons, correct? [1/6/2014 9:33:30 PM] Wynn (visor up): If I remember correctly, it was on all his weapons except his shortsword. [1/6/2014 9:33:39 PM] Janis: Hey, Kes. You're an as--uh...you know a bit about...uh...you know. [1/6/2014 9:33:39 PM] Wynn (visor up): Perhaps Kestrel would remember better since she cleaned them. [1/6/2014 9:33:47 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Kes. [1/6/2014 9:33:52 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Did his shortsword have goop? [1/6/2014 9:34:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((and looking at my logs, that is what Nation had told us)) [1/6/2014 9:34:49 PM] Kestrel: Yes. [1/6/2014 9:35:00 PM] Kestrel: Black material. [1/6/2014 9:35:01 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((knife and bolts had goop, shortsword didn't)) [1/6/2014 9:35:09 PM] Janis: The shortsword was coated in it too? [1/6/2014 9:35:10 PM] Kalor: Kalor gets some food as well [1/6/2014 9:35:14 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): That is troubling... [1/6/2014 9:35:14 PM] Kestrel: ((Oh, okay. I misremembered.)) [1/6/2014 9:35:20 PM] Kestrel: ... no. [1/6/2014 9:35:29 PM] Kestrel: The shortsword did not have the black material on it. [1/6/2014 9:35:30 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((hehe)) [1/6/2014 9:35:43 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): So maybe he did kill all those other people... [1/6/2014 9:35:51 PM] Janis: I don't know. [1/6/2014 9:36:01 PM] Janis: Even on his dagger, and ALL his bolts? [1/6/2014 9:36:06 PM] Wynn (visor up): You were in doubt? [1/6/2014 9:36:16 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Yes, something doesn't add up about the attacks. [1/6/2014 9:36:23 PM] Wynn (visor up): Lira, is this more misplaced sadness over killing someone who deserved it? [1/6/2014 9:36:23 PM] Janis: What Lira said. [1/6/2014 9:36:32 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) scowls. [1/6/2014 9:36:33 PM] Janis: I was the one who brought it up. [1/6/2014 9:36:43 PM] Janis: I think we're missing something. [1/6/2014 9:36:45 PM] Wynn (visor up): My apologies then. [1/6/2014 9:37:05 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Perhaps his shortsword, when he attacked, infected somebody else? [1/6/2014 9:37:19 PM] Kestrel: Self-defense is a commonly accepted principle of jurisprudence. [1/6/2014 9:37:19 PM] Wynn (visor up): I simply do not want you to fret over lives lost when it is necessary. [1/6/2014 9:37:23 PM | Edited 9:37:33 PM] Janis: Then again, why would a miner be that well armed to begin with? [1/6/2014 9:37:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): The miners were not in armor either. [1/6/2014 9:37:43 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) blinks. [1/6/2014 9:37:51 PM] Wynn (visor up): And should I need to remind you, he attacked us first. [1/6/2014 9:37:57 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Wait... [1/6/2014 9:38:10 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Remember how Janis said the tracks were all messy? [1/6/2014 9:38:31 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): I think they were prepared for a fight... but I don't know why. [1/6/2014 9:38:50 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'd have to imagine that if a man stabs a companion, the other miners would have scuffled, whether to fight back or escape. [1/6/2014 9:38:54 PM] Kalor: So why not assume that he either kept the shortsword clean in order to NOT infect whoever he planned to use it on, or that he picked it up off one of the guards he slew? [1/6/2014 9:39:01 PM] Janis: .................. [1/6/2014 9:39:07 PM] Janis: Janis eyes go wide. [1/6/2014 9:39:08 PM] Graaver: ((My Skype is freaking out. I might be done for the night. Unless you think the phone is reliable enough)) [1/6/2014 9:39:10 PM] Janis: Oh Gods. [1/6/2014 9:39:16 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): What? [1/6/2014 9:39:24 PM] Janis: I had a thought. [1/6/2014 9:39:38 PM] Janis: Senned said it took months for his friend to go nuts, right? [1/6/2014 9:39:51 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): And that somebody would have to swim in the soup... right. [1/6/2014 9:40:02 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks askance a moment. [1/6/2014 9:40:08 PM] Wynn (visor up): Sure. However, there is a chance it was coincidental. [1/6/2014 9:40:10 PM] Janis: But there was no indication beforehand. [1/6/2014 9:40:21 PM] Janis: He just went nuts. [1/6/2014 9:40:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): People become murderers without being 'goop'-ed [1/6/2014 9:40:33 PM | Edited 9:40:40 PM] Janis: So, how do they test you for infection in the first place? [1/6/2014 9:40:40 PM] Kalor: Mnemonic contamination... [1/6/2014 9:40:47 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): They detoxed every six hours, I think. [1/6/2014 9:40:56 PM] Janis: How do they know it works? [1/6/2014 9:40:57 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): They said as much. [1/6/2014 9:41:01 PM] Wynn (visor up): Recent precautions, yes. That's what Sennec said. [1/6/2014 9:41:11 PM] Janis: How do they know it works? [1/6/2014 9:41:23 PM | Removed 9:42:01 PM] Wynn (visor up): This message has been removed. [1/6/2014 9:41:25 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Janis. "The water is treated magically with many, many spells." [1/6/2014 9:41:34 PM] Janis: And? [1/6/2014 9:41:53 PM] Wynn (visor up): Are you worried that it is a false sense of security like the tiger stone? [1/6/2014 9:41:58 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): What tiger stone? [1/6/2014 9:42:07 PM] Janis: Yeah, what Wynn said! [1/6/2014 9:42:14 PM] Janis: ...what? [1/6/2014 9:42:20 PM] Wynn (visor up): I could hand you a stone and say it protects you from tigers. [1/6/2014 9:42:28 PM] Wynn (visor up): You'd reply that there are no tigers. [1/6/2014 9:42:34 PM] Wynn (visor up): And I'd say it's because the stone works. [1/6/2014 9:42:45 PM] Janis: .............. [1/6/2014 9:42:51 PM] Janis: .....I'm gonna say yeah. [1/6/2014 9:43:08 PM] Janis: Also, we should get a tiger stone. [1/6/2014 9:43:10 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): So in other words... Wynn and I could become murderers? [1/6/2014 9:43:16 PM] Kalor: Of course, I keep this old thing to ward away pink elephants. [1/6/2014 9:43:18 PM] Janis: That could be a problem in the near future. [1/6/2014 9:43:21 PM] Wynn (visor up): They think the detox works, but if the goop has only a 10% chance of affecting the person, it might not work at all. [1/6/2014 9:43:25 PM] Kalor: Kalor holds up a small rock [1/6/2014 9:43:37 PM] Kalor: And lo, not a pachyderm to behold. [1/6/2014 9:43:52 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Kalor with befuddlement. [1/6/2014 9:44:03 PM] Janis: ((And Sash is T Baker again :P)) [1/6/2014 9:44:07 PM] Wynn (visor up): Just because we 'detoxed' doesn't mean it actually worked. It could just be coincidence. [1/6/2014 9:44:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((did wynn just say something smart? i can't tell... lol)) [1/6/2014 9:44:36 PM] Janis: So, let's say it doesn't always work. [1/6/2014 9:44:40 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): The dragon said the detox treatment cures ill effects of the goop... perhaps we should ask him. [1/6/2014 9:44:47 PM] Janis: And the miners are slowly getting affected over time. [1/6/2014 9:44:52 PM] Nilani: Nilani folds her arms [1/6/2014 9:44:57 PM] Wynn (visor up): That still doesn't explain where he came from. [1/6/2014 9:44:59 PM] Janis: I think we should. [1/6/2014 9:45:06 PM] Kestrel: People do develop a resistance to some toxins. [1/6/2014 9:45:08 PM] Wynn (visor up): Sennec said all the miners were accounted for. [1/6/2014 9:45:13 PM] Janis: Maybe figure out more about how it works. [1/6/2014 9:45:14 PM] Kestrel: Others remain deadly. [1/6/2014 9:45:29 PM] Janis: .......did I just suggest listening to more magicky stuff? [1/6/2014 9:45:30 PM] Kalor: But this is not a toxin of the body. [1/6/2014 9:45:36 PM] Janis: -_- [1/6/2014 9:45:48 PM] Kalor: It is a toxin of the mind. [1/6/2014 9:45:57 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Kalor. "Did you detox?" [1/6/2014 9:46:03 PM] Kalor: Both metaphysically and literally. [1/6/2014 9:46:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Kalor's not so good with analogies and metaphors..... and kid's stories lol)) [1/6/2014 9:46:32 PM] Kalor: Why? I did not touch the black ooze. [1/6/2014 9:46:50 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) pokes Kalor with her quarterstaff. [1/6/2014 9:46:51 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Interesting. Neither did most of us, but they insisted we all bathe in their magic waters. [1/6/2014 9:47:21 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Only friends Wynn and Lira came into contact with it. [1/6/2014 9:47:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((you did clean your staff,right?)) [1/6/2014 9:47:44 PM] Kalor: Well, they never even mentioned anything about magical waters to me. [1/6/2014 9:47:46 PM] Nation: ((Almost like the DM was in a rush to get him back to the group.)) [1/6/2014 9:47:51 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): At least, directly. Perhaps there is another method of becoming affected by the goop. [1/6/2014 9:47:53 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Lol!)) [1/6/2014 9:48:01 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((I never would have guessed!)) [1/6/2014 9:48:07 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) nods. "There are some things that can affect mind and body that come in gaseous forms." [1/6/2014 9:48:33 PM] Nation: Everyone roll notice. [1/6/2014 9:48:42 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((19)) [1/6/2014 9:48:45 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((11)) [1/6/2014 9:49:01 PM] Janis: ((19)) [1/6/2014 9:49:10 PM] Kalor: ((13)) [1/6/2014 9:49:10 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((10)) [1/6/2014 9:49:18 PM] Nilani: ((16)) [1/6/2014 9:49:31 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((lagging)) [1/6/2014 9:51:13 PM] Kestrel: ((Didn't notice I had to roll, sorry. 5.)) [1/6/2014 9:52:22 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((test?)) [1/6/2014 9:52:56 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks very alarmed. [1/6/2014 9:53:06 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Whatever... that white circle thing is... there's more of them. [1/6/2014 9:53:15 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): And they know about us. [1/6/2014 9:53:28 PM | Edited 9:53:41 PM] Nilani: Nilani ducks down, peering over the table [1/6/2014 9:53:33 PM] Janis: Janis whispers "They're just staring at us." [1/6/2014 9:53:36 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Larry, Cleric (Adam) quietly, to Lira: "Where?" [1/6/2014 9:53:43 PM] Janis: "By the door, don't look" [1/6/2014 9:53:47 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): (quietly) They're gone now. [1/6/2014 9:53:59 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel frowns. [1/6/2014 9:54:02 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): (quietly) did they leave? [1/6/2014 9:54:14 PM] Janis: Yeah, looks like he slipped away. [1/6/2014 9:54:15 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((looks like i'm back now)) [1/6/2014 9:54:18 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): (quietly) They left when they noticed that they were noticed. [1/6/2014 9:54:27 PM] Janis: ...ok...so it was probably a planned attack [1/6/2014 9:54:28 PM | Edited 9:54:40 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((notice-ception!)) [1/6/2014 9:54:50 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Should we tell Mr. Dragon? [1/6/2014 9:54:55 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): What could these things be? [1/6/2014 9:55:02 PM] Janis: It was an elf. [1/6/2014 9:55:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): Perhaps we should go out and meet them. [1/6/2014 9:55:17 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Wynn, alarmed. [1/6/2014 9:55:18 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'd prefer not to be ambushed in a pub with innocents around. [1/6/2014 9:55:20 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Was it, though, friend Janis? I mean, the human was only human until it became clear goo. [1/6/2014 9:55:20 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): What if we get hit by goop? [1/6/2014 9:55:33 PM] Janis: It was an elf. [1/6/2014 9:55:35 PM] Janis: I'm sure. [1/6/2014 9:55:42 PM] Wynn (visor up): Would you rather take a bolt to the shoulder from an unseen assailant? [1/6/2014 9:55:45 PM] Janis: At least, he looked like an elf. [1/6/2014 9:55:46 PM] Wynn (visor up): Or meet them head-on? [1/6/2014 9:55:59 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) winces. "Fine." [1/6/2014 9:55:59 PM] Janis: I'd rather the cover of a crowd. [1/6/2014 9:56:12 PM] Wynn (visor up): If they know who we are, hiding is pointless. [1/6/2014 9:56:15 PM] Janis: Once we leave, we're targets. [1/6/2014 9:56:37 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Are we all here together? No stragglers?)) [1/6/2014 9:56:40 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): That's all I meant. These things appear to be normal until they disincorporate. I wonder if they're undead, for example. [1/6/2014 9:56:46 PM] Kalor: As long as he's still mostly humanoid I should be able to charm him with my magic. [1/6/2014 9:56:59 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Yes, we should try questioning them this time... [1/6/2014 9:57:16 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel frowns. [1/6/2014 9:57:21 PM] Kestrel: "Things"? [1/6/2014 9:57:24 PM] Janis: That's stupid. [1/6/2014 9:57:45 PM] Janis: We've already killed one of theirs. I don't think they'll wanna just talk. [1/6/2014 9:57:55 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Charms work wonders, Janis. [1/6/2014 9:57:59 PM] Wynn (visor up): And if there is to be a fight, I prefer to do so away from these people. [1/6/2014 9:58:00 PM] Kalor: Oh, he'll talk all right... [1/6/2014 9:58:15 PM] Nation: Sennec walks in. "Hey, good news guys, we found your ship." [1/6/2014 9:58:20 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) jumps up! [1/6/2014 9:58:23 PM] Wynn (visor up): Nine of their own have died today. [1/6/2014 9:58:24 PM] Kalor: Once the spell hits he'll be my best buddy for a few hours [1/6/2014 9:58:25 PM] Janis: Bad news. We're being watched. [1/6/2014 9:58:37 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): (whispers to Sennec) There's more of the white-circle people. [1/6/2014 9:58:38 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): What would you prefer I refer to them as, friend Kestrel? Perhaps "things" is not the best term for them, but given the way the last one came apart, I don't know what else to refer to them as. [1/6/2014 9:58:58 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): I think they intend us harm. [1/6/2014 9:59:19 PM] Kestrel: Enemies. [1/6/2014 9:59:23 PM] Kestrel: Watchers. [1/6/2014 9:59:25 PM] Janis: ...wait...you found Nation! [1/6/2014 9:59:26 PM] Kestrel: Adversaries. [1/6/2014 9:59:36 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) shoots Kes a look. [1/6/2014 9:59:36 PM] Kalor: Walkers? [1/6/2014 9:59:36 PM] Nation: Sennec gives the Warforged equivalent of a frown. "Well. The guards were told to be on the lookout for them.  White circles, blue armor, right?" [1/6/2014 9:59:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): That is good news. [1/6/2014 9:59:45 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Right. [1/6/2014 9:59:50 PM] Kalor: Because they walk, and then they turn to goo? [1/6/2014 10:00:05 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Goo-Walkers it is, can we not argue about this! [1/6/2014 10:00:10 PM] Kestrel: Person or persons unknown whose goal remains unknown. [1/6/2014 10:00:14 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) scowls. [1/6/2014 10:00:28 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Unsub.)) [1/6/2014 10:00:29 PM] Janis: Guys! They found Nation! [1/6/2014 10:00:37 PM] Wynn (visor up): Is he intact? [1/6/2014 10:00:40 PM] Janis: Can you dig him out? [1/6/2014 10:00:43 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): How is he? [1/6/2014 10:00:52 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((commence bombardment!)) [1/6/2014 10:01:24 PM] Kestrel: Unknown subjects. Mysterious assailants... [1/6/2014 10:01:50 PM] Nation: Sennec:  Um. seems to be in one big piece. We don't need to dig, because he's in the liquid soup. We'll crane the ship out. Can't be more specific, we just know where he is. [1/6/2014 10:02:03 PM] Wynn (visor up): Good news regardless. [1/6/2014 10:02:05 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Ok, thank you for the update Sennec. [1/6/2014 10:02:13 PM | Edited 10:03:35 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Very well. Thank you, Sennec. [1/6/2014 10:02:17 PM] Janis: How long do you think it will take to get him out? [1/6/2014 10:03:24 PM] Nation: Sennec:  A few hours, at least. Naarfilingus authorized me to take you to where we'll be pulling him out. It's about an hour to get there. [1/6/2014 10:03:50 PM] Nation: Sennec:  And we have to get the crane there and set up... it'll be awhile. [1/6/2014 10:03:51 PM] Wynn (visor up): About this Blue Circle Gang... would you like to have some of your guards near us? It seems we are targets, and while we are likely capable enough to defend ourselves, your company may not appreciate our results. [1/6/2014 10:04:07 PM] Wynn (visor up): Well certainly, we'll go then. [1/6/2014 10:04:08 PM] Janis: .......liquid goo....... [1/6/2014 10:04:12 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) nods. [1/6/2014 10:04:22 PM] Janis: Janis is in deep thought. [1/6/2014 10:04:36 PM] Janis: ...................... [1/6/2014 10:04:38 PM] Kestrel: We should return to the ship. [1/6/2014 10:04:46 PM] Nation: He nods. "I'll arrange some guards, if you'd like." [1/6/2014 10:05:01 PM] Janis: ....................................... [1/6/2014 10:05:04 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): We're getting our ship out of the soup, Kes..... [1/6/2014 10:05:14 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): If you want to be *inside* while we do that.... [1/6/2014 10:05:17 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ..... [1/6/2014 10:05:20 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) trails off. [1/6/2014 10:05:31 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'd rather not be dropped on my head twice. [1/6/2014 10:05:45 PM] Janis: Yeah, that doesn't sound safe. [1/6/2014 10:05:59 PM] Wynn (visor up): The guards may have a chance to apprehend the group if they show themselves again. [1/6/2014 10:06:09 PM] Kestrel: We have left both Flamey and Jhett there. [1/6/2014 10:06:14 PM] Janis: Sennec? [1/6/2014 10:06:23 PM] Kestrel: If we would like to drop them on *their* heads without warning or preparation, we need do nothing. [1/6/2014 10:06:36 PM] Janis: Did you actually see Nation? [1/6/2014 10:06:39 PM] Janis: The ship? [1/6/2014 10:06:42 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) frowns slightly. [1/6/2014 10:06:42 PM] Janis: From the outside? [1/6/2014 10:07:01 PM] Wynn (visor up): I'm not sure how people would react to having Flamey brought out. [1/6/2014 10:07:25 PM] Kestrel: It is not generally considered humane to drop pets on their heads from a great height. [1/6/2014 10:07:29 PM] Janis: Janis is so deep in thought, she isn't even thinking of Flamey :) [1/6/2014 10:08:01 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): They should be fine. They've already had it done to them once. We have to worry about NATION. [1/6/2014 10:08:02 PM] Nation: Sennec:  No, the clairvoyants did an exta scan at Naarfilingus' request, just looking for anything new.  They found it, and its location, and informed Naarfilingus. [1/6/2014 10:08:08 PM] Wynn (visor up): Well... I believe the island we appeared on is small, devoid of plants and persons. [1/6/2014 10:08:32 PM] Wynn (visor up): Perhaps someone can go take the hound off the ship and keep her there. And obviously let Jhett know as well. [1/6/2014 10:08:37 PM] Kestrel: I will do so. [1/6/2014 10:08:39 PM] Janis: I'll go! [1/6/2014 10:08:50 PM] Janis: She trust me. [1/6/2014 10:08:58 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): It was the same island where we encountered the combatant. [1/6/2014 10:09:05 PM] Wynn (visor up): We should have guards accompany you. [1/6/2014 10:09:16 PM] Wynn (visor up): And perhaps myself as well, though I worry about the rest of the group. [1/6/2014 10:09:22 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Friends, I placed some assorted spell components by the door to the tunnel back to Nation. [1/6/2014 10:09:25 PM] Janis: ....Sennec...where did you find Nation...roughly? [1/6/2014 10:09:40 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel frowns. [1/6/2014 10:09:47 PM] Wynn (visor up): Perhaps we should all go to the island to await Nation's rescue. [1/6/2014 10:09:55 PM] Nation: Sennec:  To the north. Far from the place I found you. [1/6/2014 10:10:01 PM] Janis: Janis nods [1/6/2014 10:10:06 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) frowns. "I wish to accompany Sennec." [1/6/2014 10:10:11 PM] Janis: Hm [1/6/2014 10:10:19 PM] Wynn (visor up): Wynn (visor up) nods. [1/6/2014 10:10:22 PM] Wynn (visor up): Sennec... [1/6/2014 10:10:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): This is an odd request. [1/6/2014 10:10:43 PM] Janis: Larry, what were the spell components for? [1/6/2014 10:10:50 PM] Wynn (visor up): But... would it be possible to have a hellhound accompany us on this ship? ((It's not made of wood, right? lol)) [1/6/2014 10:11:07 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Specifically to denote the tunnel from which we exited, in case we became lost. [1/6/2014 10:11:13 PM] Nation: Sennec shrugs. "Sure.  I assume its trained." [1/6/2014 10:11:25 PM] Janis: ...mostly... [1/6/2014 10:11:41 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) hides a grin. [1/6/2014 10:11:58 PM] Kestrel: It obeys commands spoken in Infernal. [1/6/2014 10:12:04 PM] Wynn (visor up): Can we return to the island to retrieve our other companions on the way, then? [1/6/2014 10:12:14 PM] Kestrel: ... it sometimes attempts to lick people, however. [1/6/2014 10:12:34 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((tattle-tale!)) [1/6/2014 10:13:08 PM] Nation: Sennec:  ...in that it's opposite of the way we're going, that might be tough, but I'll take you back if you want. We'll have plenty of time. Moving and setting up the crane alone takes hours. [1/6/2014 10:13:27 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) shrugs. "Very well." [1/6/2014 10:13:32 PM] Janis: It would be bad if Flamey and Jhett got tossed around. [1/6/2014 10:13:42 PM] Janis: Raven can probably handle himself. [1/6/2014 10:13:48 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Lol!)) [1/6/2014 10:13:54 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((heh)) [1/6/2014 10:13:57 PM | Removed 10:14:10 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): This message has been removed. [1/6/2014 10:14:02 PM] Kestrel: We will attempt to find Raven as well. [1/6/2014 10:14:06 PM] Wynn (visor up): We appreciate it, Sennec. [1/6/2014 10:14:11 PM] Kestrel: ... the attempt is not likely to succeed. [1/6/2014 10:14:19 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((I couldn't help it.)) [1/6/2014 10:14:31 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): If we're saving Jhett, then we're at least gonna try to find Raven... [1/6/2014 10:14:38 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): They're both crewmembers. [1/6/2014 10:14:39 PM] Nation: Sennec:  All right, then. We'll head back there first. [1/6/2014 10:14:57 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Thank you, Sennec. We appreciate it. [1/6/2014 10:15:07 PM] Janis: Janis nod "Thanks" [1/6/2014 10:15:16 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) checks her gear and then readies to follow Sennec out. [1/6/2014 10:15:24 PM] Nation: So! you find yourselves on a boat back to the island you started on. [1/6/2014 10:15:27 PM] Wynn (visor up): You and your boss have been a great help to us during this time. [1/6/2014 10:15:34 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Whee!)) [1/6/2014 10:15:50 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Fast travel!)) [1/6/2014 10:15:56 PM] Nation: Sennec:  The boss said that the crane was just sitting around anyway. [1/6/2014 10:16:01 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Wynn is staying far from the outer edges of the ship)) [1/6/2014 10:16:08 PM] Janis: ((I thought I'd figured the white circle thing, but I guess not)) [1/6/2014 10:16:15 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) tries to notice anything different right-away about the island, just in case. [1/6/2014 10:16:16 PM] Wynn (visor up): :D [1/6/2014 10:16:21 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((24 notice)) [1/6/2014 10:17:04 PM] Nation: Nope, nothing. There are a bunch of guards there, now, though, having secured the crime scene and collected the deceased. [1/6/2014 10:17:32 PM] Kestrel: The murderer was caught. [1/6/2014 10:17:33 PM] Wynn (visor up): Janis, Kestrel, and I will go get the others if you would like to wait here. [1/6/2014 10:17:51 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Janis was right, Wynn. The hellhound likes her best. [1/6/2014 10:17:56 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): You should have her with you. [1/6/2014 10:18:06 PM] Wynn (visor up): I know. [1/6/2014 10:18:21 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((I did say Janis, Kes and I lol)) [1/6/2014 10:18:31 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Oops, reading fail!)) [1/6/2014 10:18:48 PM] Janis: The three of us should do well enough. [1/6/2014 10:18:49 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) blinks. "Oh sorry. I guess I misheard you." [1/6/2014 10:18:54 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Friends, if one of you would be so kind as to pick up the handful of components I left at the tunnel entrance once you've finished, I would appreciate it greatly. [1/6/2014 10:19:02 PM] Wynn (visor up): Will do, Larry. [1/6/2014 10:19:03 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel nods. [1/6/2014 10:19:13 PM] Nation: So, you're not all going back to the ship? [1/6/2014 10:19:18 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) keeps a sharp lookout near the boat! [1/6/2014 10:19:20 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((nope)) [1/6/2014 10:19:29 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Lira wants to keep an eye on the warforged. lol)) [1/6/2014 10:19:35 PM] Janis: It might be smart to leave some people out to stand guard. [1/6/2014 10:19:38 PM] Janis: If nothing else. [1/6/2014 10:20:05 PM] Wynn (visor up): It's just a simple retrieval. It shouldn't take long [1/6/2014 10:20:13 PM] Kestrel: "Shouldn't." [1/6/2014 10:20:35 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((We're SPLITTING THE PARTY!!!)) [1/6/2014 10:20:41 PM] Nation: Okay, so those guys head off. [1/6/2014 10:20:45 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((That's not new :P )) [1/6/2014 10:20:57 PM] Nation: Leaving you on the beach with Sennec and the guards. [1/6/2014 10:21:00 PM | Edited 10:24:22 PM] Janis: ((https://myspace.com/emeraldrose2/music/song/never-split-the-party-74227720-81901951)) [1/6/2014 10:21:38 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Very well.)) [1/6/2014 10:21:54 PM] Kestrel: ((At least it's only two groups. Last time I did this type of game there were usually 3-4.)) [1/6/2014 10:23:05 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) idly chit-chats with Larry. "Hey Larry... What do you think of the white-circle spy?" [1/6/2014 10:24:07 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Honestly, friend Lira, I'm not sure what to think. I've never seen such a creature in my life. The fact that there were apparently more after us worries me immensely. [1/6/2014 10:24:29 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Even moreso the fact that they apparently move around this community unnoticed. [1/6/2014 10:24:36 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) nods. [1/6/2014 10:24:44 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Perhaps they are able to change their shapes... [1/6/2014 10:25:32 PM] Nilani: Nilani sits on a rock a bit away from everyone else, facing the group, with her back against a larger rock, appearing to draw absent-mindedly in the sand with her boot, looking at the sky occaisionally. [1/6/2014 10:26:25 PM] Nilani: Nilani makes sure to pick a spot that is within line-of-sight of one or more of the others. [1/6/2014 10:26:33 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): I sincerely hope not, given our current situation. [1/6/2014 10:27:06 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) frowns, puzzling out the chain of events. "The biggest problem is whether or not Nation is ok..." [1/6/2014 10:28:44 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Indeed. If Nation is irreparably damaged, we're essentially stuck here, and I doubt anyone would find that particularly acceptable. [1/6/2014 10:29:02 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks worried. "And... what if the goop... changed him...?" [1/6/2014 10:29:39 PM] Nation: ((Yeah! Maybe he'll be a jerk now.)) [1/6/2014 10:30:07 PM] Kestrel: ((... oh, wait.)) [1/6/2014 10:30:13 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((xD)) [1/6/2014 10:31:08 PM | Edited 10:31:19 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) rubs the spot where the bolt had struck her. [1/6/2014 10:31:51 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): What if Wynn and I... change? [1/6/2014 10:32:58 PM] Janis: Janis and the others come back, with Jhett and Flamey. [1/6/2014 10:33:29 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) smiles. "Glad to see you guys made it out." [1/6/2014 10:33:43 PM] Nation: Jhett nods. "We got attacked." [1/6/2014 10:33:48 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Everything will be fine. [1/6/2014 10:33:50 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Attacked? [1/6/2014 10:33:54 PM] Janis: More white circles [1/6/2014 10:34:05 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): That's not a good sign. Are they still on Nation? [1/6/2014 10:34:14 PM] Nation: Jhett:  They're dead. [1/6/2014 10:34:19 PM] Janis: Flamey got the two they found [1/6/2014 10:34:20 PM] Nation: He pats Flamey on the head. [1/6/2014 10:34:32 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel tells the dog it's adequate again, in Infernal. [1/6/2014 10:34:39 PM] Nation: Flamey:  Wf! [1/6/2014 10:34:44 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks at Flamey ".....I see.. Well, let's go North then." [1/6/2014 10:35:13 PM] Nation: Jhett looks around. "Huh.  Thats... something." [1/6/2014 10:35:17 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((back again. stupid lag)) [1/6/2014 10:35:40 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Don't touch it. [1/6/2014 10:35:44 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) looks as stern as possible. [1/6/2014 10:35:45 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((or not)) [1/6/2014 10:36:10 PM] Nation: Jhett:  Who would touch anything that looks like that? And that has... is that a giant petrified tentacle -- sticking out of it? [1/6/2014 10:36:31 PM] Nation: Jhett points, and there is, indeed, a giant petrified tentacle in the distance. [1/6/2014 10:36:34 PM] Janis: Janis looks at Wynn [1/6/2014 10:36:43 PM] Janis: Janis smirks [1/6/2014 10:36:51 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): It's dead Gods. Come, let's get on the boat. [1/6/2014 10:37:26 PM] Wynn (visor up): What is it, Janis? [1/6/2014 10:37:30 PM] Janis: Nothing [1/6/2014 10:37:31 PM] Nilani: Nilani gets up and looks around one last time before walking over to the group. [1/6/2014 10:37:40 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): Lira the Wiz (Winnie) boards the boat [1/6/2014 10:37:44 PM] Janis: Janis gets on the boat [1/6/2014 10:37:48 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): Larry, Cleric (Adam) boards the boat. [1/6/2014 10:37:57 PM] Janis: ((We are so gonna get attacked on the boat)) [1/6/2014 10:38:04 PM] Nilani: Nilani finds a spot on the boat. [1/6/2014 10:38:10 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Oops! Did someonepick up the stuff?)) [1/6/2014 10:38:18 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel did. [1/6/2014 10:38:21 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel was last, so. [1/6/2014 10:38:43 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((I meant to, but we kinda skipped the walk. lol. And I lagged out the whole conversation since Jhett asked where we were... on the ship.)) [1/6/2014 10:39:29 PM] Nation: ((We'll probably be wrapping up soon. This will be a three parter.)) [1/6/2014 10:39:48 PM | Edited 10:40:55 PM] Janis: ((The epic trilogy!)) [1/6/2014 10:39:56 PM] Janis: ((I call this our mid-season finale)) [1/6/2014 10:40:24 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((aww... but hullabaloo doesn't rhyme with three.)) [1/6/2014 10:40:25 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Good by me. Gotta be up tomorrow.)) [1/6/2014 10:40:34 PM] Janis: ((Yeah, me too)) [1/6/2014 10:40:37 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((I know. Time to rhyme something with trilogy.)) [1/6/2014 10:41:08 PM] Janis: ...((Thrillogy?)) [1/6/2014 10:41:29 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((I like "The God Goo Thrillogy".)) [1/6/2014 10:41:30 PM] Kestrel: ((Krillogy. We are in an ocean, after all.)) [1/6/2014 10:41:44 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((boo.. lol)) [1/6/2014 10:41:58 PM] Nation: Jhett gets on the boat, eyeing Kestrel appraisingly for a moment before sitting down, staring at the soup of dead gods. [1/6/2014 10:42:02 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Significantly more fighting and trouble than we've had so far.)) [1/6/2014 10:42:07 PM] Janis: ((Ok, God-Goo Hullabaloo is our Trilogy title)) [1/6/2014 10:42:18 PM] Kestrel: ... yes? [1/6/2014 10:42:20 PM] Janis: ((Part one was Sea of Dead Gods)) [1/6/2014 10:42:35 PM] Nation: Jhett:  ...you look like your'e feeling better. [1/6/2014 10:42:38 PM] Wynn (visor up): ((Part two- Paperwork of Dragons)) [1/6/2014 10:42:44 PM] Lira the Wiz (Winnie): ((Hee!))

[1/6/2014 10:43:03 PM] Nilani: ((Circle, Circle, Dot, Dot?)) [1/6/2014 10:43:13 PM] Janis: ((Part 2: The Draconic Clause)) [1/6/2014 10:43:15 PM] Kestrel: I feel adequate.

[1/6/2014 10:45:08 PM] Janis: ((14 Notice Check for White Circles)) [1/6/2014 10:45:36 PM] Nation: ((You notice nothing on the boat ride with you guys and Sennec and two guards.))

[1/6/2014 10:45:57 PM] Kestrel: Kestrel did, sure! [1/6/2014 10:46:47 PM | Edited 10:47:07 PM] Larry, Cleric (Adam): ((Thanks. I suppose I could have bought some components while we were at the pub/market, but it seemed unnecessary.)) [1/6/2014 10:47:03 PM] Nation: We shall leave it here on the boat for now.
