You whisper to Thrice: and here's the paffinder radio if you need it
Thrice: 	Well at least you have the right idea of where to place them
Mistral: (( also, Tirk, you're going to need to join the Virvah network ))
Mistral: (( as I assume you missed that on Skype ))

Mistral: (( Just prepared some spells as I forgot to do that, but yep ))
Mistral: (( aaand removed my ownership of Paige. ))
tirkaroKujo: 	Just doin' some extra prep here, don't mind us
Mistral: (( guess I'll keep looking for my mouse then, while I have the time to. ))
Sarith: (( i just finished up Litsne's stats ))
* Sarith pets Litsne a bit
	Sarith: 	"I wonder who everyone is...."
	Sarith: 	"I have no idea where I am."
* Paige Emberfly wore a brown cloak with a hood, covering her wings and antennae. She stood in the shadows at the edge of the street, ducked behind a plant.
Thrice: 	All right, looks like we're good to start, hold on a sec while I post something
Thrice: 	Even if it's a bit late
Thrice: 	So! You've found yourself here, in front of Selani's castle, on the west end of town. It's said that it's best to go in groups when going to be blessed, for unknown reasons, and as such you've decided to band together with these children to do it. These kids may not necessarily be your friends, but, hey, anyone's better than nobody, right? Anyways, this has been a planned event on the part of most of the children for about a week or so(some may have just wondered what was going on and walked up). The castle, of course, is straight up ahead, past all the neatly-arranged houses and Kova; a member of a sort of half-town-guard-half-policemen sector that enforces the law around here.
Thrice: 	and I probablly need a DM token...
Sarith: (( isn't there the GM voice? ))
Thrice: 	Oh, it's just sort of a custom to have a token for DM stuff around these woods
Mistral: (( Don't you already have Hendrix? ))
Mistral: (( or is that more a Tirk thing ))
Thrice: 	That's Tirk-only, but I'll do something similar I suppose
	Hendrix: 	Johan Selani is an odd little town. Somewhere in between law and chaos lies a medium that's...less happy than you'd think, but we carry on well.
	Radio: 	NOW PLAYING

	Mistral: 	Mistral looks around the cobblestone streets, taking in all the potential vassals present. What would they become, what were they like? "Are you guys ready for this?" She asks to no one in particular, trying to break the tension.
	Haze: 	This'll do, surely nobody is colorblind I hope
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I-i wonder why everyone is gathering." Paige hadn't known the reason for the meeting, but looking childlike herself had grown swept up in the event.
	Jaden: 	"Ey!" The young boy next to you seems a bit worked up for this event, as if he's planned for this for a while. "This is your first blessin', right? I know it sure is mine!"
	Forz: 	Forz, a boy from this west end of town, glances around at Mistral, "Of course. I've been ready for weeks. Please, tell me nobody is chickening out?"
	Damekki: 	"You can only get blessed once, dummy!" The dragon-girl on the other side yelled in an annoyed fashion.
	Sarith: 	"Blessing?"
	Sarith: 	Sarith didn't know what they were talking about at all.
	Doyle: 	Doyle, a strange-looking kid with darting eyes, turns to Jaden, "Well, don't feel bad! It wouldn't be mine! If, uh, I were going with you... I can't, you know, sorry, sorry, that wouldn't be very good at all, if Selani saw me. But you have MY blessing! To get your blessings. Ah, hehehe..."
* Paige Emberfly looked strange, wearing scholar robes over wooden armor, a sword hanging over her back. ""Blessing?" She thought to herself. "I think that has to do with heroes... m-maybe if I join in I might become a great hero..." Paige smiled to herself and pulled the rim of her hood over her face as she giggled.
	Vidarr: 	"Wait, wait, wait, wait, what's a blessing? Nahahaha, good one! Ain't that what you're here for?" A boy with some...unusually long teeth and oddly green hair tries to answer Sarith, but ends up just asking more questions.
	Sarith: 	"Uh... yeah. Right. Of course." Sarith shifted her eyes to the side.
	Davisson: 	The fierce, yet tiny, beast in the corner spits his bone aside and smugly retorts, "Yeah, doncha know? This is the time when us young ones go and get blessed. I hear it qualifies us for greatness, like getting superpowers! And maybe it'll make me grow a bit more..."
Mistral: (( oh my god I thought that was an animal companion. ))
Davisson: (( you thought wrong ))
* Sarith lol I thought so too.
Sarith: (( lol ))
	Vidarr: 	"Nahaha...Superpowers?! I dunno about THAT, but a Hero I'll be yet!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"...yes!" Paige whispered, still watching from her hiding spot.
	Jaden: 	"So, any of you lovely ladies need a hand? No need to worry, you'll be safe under my blade!" Jaden polishes his tiny knife, looking smarmishly at the girlies around him.
* Sarith glances peculiarly at the tiny beast and tries to identify what it is. Knowledge check: « 1d20 = 6 »
Sarith: (( unless local applies, at which point add 4 to it ))
Doyle: (( For the record, most knowledge checks are to be rolled secretly, but for him...I uh, guess it'd be Nature, pretty sure that's beasts/magical beasts. ))
	Mistral: 	"Hrm?" Mistral turns around to the lad behind him for an instant, before turning back to the blue beast in front of her. "Oh, no thanks. Hey, weird question, are you done with that bone by chance?"
Sarith: (( oh, then roll seceretly for me then ))
Doyle: (( apparently ARCANA is magical beasts, sorry. Eh, whatever, I'll count it for Nature too ))
Doyle: (( Makes enough sense ))
	Davisson: 	"Sorry dame, but you're gonna need to find another marrow 'round here. This is my trusty bone ripped straight from the leg of an Elk myself."
	Davisson: 	"Course, if you want, I could always rip out another one for you. You don't look quite like an Elk, but I'll find something out."
Damekki: (( so is Sarith gonna make a nature roll or not...? ))
	Mistral: 	"I'll remember that! Thanks!"
Sarith: (( i thought i did? ))
Vidarr: (( She did, a 6 ))
Player "Sarith" is not connected.
You whisper to Snowbear22: You can't tell the exact specifics of this mutt, but it sure looks like it'd probably grow up into something more ferocious.
	Forz: 	"Don't thank him for threats. He'll get the wrong idea. Train him bad and he'll turn out bad."
	Sarith: 	"Uh... so I'm a little new around here and I don't think I've met any of you, so can you guide me to whoever this Doyle person is?"
* Sarith pulls ou the hankerchief
	Damekki: 	"Haha, too late for that! Once a mutt, always a mutt."
* Paige Emberfly leanded close behind a plant-pot's base to listen in to whatever important information she could glean from the conversation.
	Doyle: 	"Huh? Doyle? Uh, you wouldn't happen to know Selani, would you...?"
	Sarith: 	"Of course I do." Bluff: « 1d20 = 9 »
	Doyle: 	"...you sure about that? Er, whatever, look, you don't seem to know her, so it's fine. I'm Doyle." The kid glances about, just checking to make sure there isn't anyone else around...
* Sarith pulls out her gun and looks pretty angry.
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige's head sinks to her shoulders.
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha! Please, Ms. Queen-of-Law ain't gonna be hiding in an alleyway! I hope she ain't at least, or this'd be for nothing!"
	Sarith: 	"You! You will pay for what you did."
* Sarith points it at Doyle.
	Jaden: 	Jaden backs up into a corner, jumping in a mixure between excitement and panic. "Woah! Shit's goin' DOWN yo!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"H-hey!" Paige shouted as she jumped out of her hiding spot. She froze on the spot
	Mistral: 	Mistral is confused by this sudden turn of events. "W-whoa, what's going on here!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"P-please stop!"
* Sarith bursting out in tears. "It's your fault papa died. You and your goblin friends."
	Doyle: 	"Whoa!? P-put that down! What do you think you're doing, you could hurt me! And if you hurt ME, that's bad for everyone! Wait, huh? Was that your house...? It was abandoned, I swear!"
	Sarith: 	"Yes, my house was burned. Along with everyone else who was with us. Our moving houses."
Mistral: (( Good thing I prepared Enhanced Diplomacy, I might need it. ))
	Forz: 	"If there's one person you don't want to dislodge a firearm around, it's the man with more gunpowder on him than the entire military."
	Vidarr: 	"Don't call him a man, that makes him sound grown-up! He's year older than me! And uh, why's she going gung-ho on Doyle again, I wasn't paying attention..."
	Sarith: 	"They are died in a raid that was obviously his planning. That goblin boss dropped this as he left."
	Doyle: 	"Wait, -what-? I swear, there was nobody in that house! If there WAS, I'd be in a lot more trouble with Selani than I am!"
	Mistral: 	Mistral mutters to herself, concentrating on getting the gun put down, for starters. *Enhanced Diplomacy on self*
	Paige Emberfly: 	With her wings under her cloak Paige was unable to fly, instead the 3 foot girl tran as quick as she could and stood uselessly with her arms spread wide.
	Paige Emberfly: 	* three foot tall
	Davisson: 	"Hey, if you're all gonna kill eachother this early, can't you all fatten yourselves up a little bit more?"
	Doyle: 	"...goblins? Did you say goblins? ...er, does anyone know this girl? You might want to get out of the way, see, there's a gun pointed at me and now it's pointed at you and that's not good for your health."
	Damekki: 	"I-I'm staying out of this..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige shakes her head and keeps looking at Sarith, clearly frightened. She seems unaware she even has a sword on her back, acting out of pure instinct.
	Doyle: 	"More important than that, GOBLINS burned your house down? Not hobgoblins, not kobolds, goblins? Cause in that case..."
	Mistral: 	Mistral holds her hands up palm-first. "Okay, you've got issues with the guy, let's just... figure this out, slowly. Carefully. Shooting someone's a big deal, let's make sure you've got the right guy first."
	Mistral: 	Diplomacy: 17
	Vidarr: 	"So THAT'S what's goin on? You're a goblin, Doyle? And you burned a house down? With people in it? Nahahaha, that ain't good.. Man, and here I thought goblins were green..."
Mistral: (( +2 from the spell acourse ))
Sarith: (( so what is going on? ))
Sarith: (( sorry was talking to the people who are responsible for my pizza order ))
Mistral: (( Paige is inbetween you and Doyle, I'm standing off to the side trying to talk you down with a 19 on Diplomacy roll, other people're trying to figure it out too ))
	Doyle: 	"No, no, shut up, Vidarr! Look, I think I sort of understand what's going on...it was GOBLINS, right, just making sure? And put the gun right down already! You're making me nervous!"
	Jaden: 	"Now, now, chillax everyone~." Jaden calmly speaks, putting his hand on Doyle's shoulder. "Even if this guy IS a murdering goblin psychopath, can't we all just set aside our differences this one time? You can save the horrible bloody murder 'till a less important time, like final exams."
	Sarith: 	"I know he isn't a goblin, but he must have hired them!"
	Sarith: 	"There is no other reason why would attack travelling group of people."
	Sarith: 	"Now please move out of the way."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige shakes her head again, refusing, even though she's to short to cover anything vital with her body.
	Sarith: 	"Why should I trust him if he hired people to kill my family?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I-I don't have an answer to that... but this isn't the place for this! My heart tells me that this isn't the whole story, for either of you!" Diplomacy « 1d20+8 = 1 + 8 = 9 »
	Doyle: 	"Well for starters, they're GOBLINS! Attacking random travelers is what they do in their off-time! But I can't say I'm not probably partially responsible for this, if it's goblins. Did, uh, they use anything like this?" Doyle takes out a regular-old arrow, but slathers it in a flaming liquid, causing the arrow to glow harshly, yet strangely not actually burn. "See, if you shoot something like this, it'll catch on fire...but only once it's shot. Does this look familiar...? It might just explain things..."
	Mistral: 	"Hired people to kill- don't say things like that!" Mistral nods at Forz, trying to communicate to him to go get the cop. (I think that's a bluff check to pass along messages, so here's a roll « 1d20+4 = 13 + 4 = 17 »)
* Sarith takes a look a the arrow.
	Sarith: 	"Yes! That's exactly what they used. They burned up the entire troupe. And killed them all."
	Sarith: 	"See? I told you it's his fault."
	Jaden: 	"You're just gonna whip that out right here, D-man? You're not making a very good case for yourself..."
	Forz: 	Forz nods, showing he's understood, but hesitates before going to get Kova, looking at Doyle.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"But you haven't shot yet, there is hesitation in your heart! Doubt that it is all his fault! If you're only looking for a figure to blame, it will only be hollow revenge!"
	Doyle: 	"I didn't order them!
	Damekki: 	"I think someone might get hurt if this goes on much longer..." The dragon girl follows in Forz' lead, trying to look for the proper authorities.
	Davisson: 	"Hey, is someone gonna drop dead here or what? I'm gettin' hungry."
	Sarith: 	"The only reason I haven't shot yet is because he hasn't told me why he did it."
	Sarith: 	"Also, shooting ow would be leave me vulnerable."
Mistral: (( I wonder if dumping a couple of gallons of water on the gun would ruin the powder. ))
* Mistral wonders the same
Sarith: (( it would, but i have them tucked away and the gun isn't loaded. ))
	Sarith: 	"I demand some sort of explanation if he isn't responsible."
	Sarith: 	"I won't put this away until then."
Doyle: (( Sorry, I'm typing it up while trying not to make it 40 pages long at the same time ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige had jumped in without knowing who was right or wrong, just out of a desire that she needed to do something. There was nothing she could do but stand where she was, even as it grew more and more uncomfortable.
	Jaden: 	"Well my boy, I think it's time to fess up. Maybe she'll leave you with slightly less holes in your chest than usual if you do..." Jaden puts his hand off Doyle's shoulder, pehaps to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.
	Sarith: 	"Now if you would please move fairy. I would like to perhaps end this."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige flinched, surprised her fey-ness was noticed so easily.
	Mistral: 	"3... 2... ... obscuring mist! Scatter!" Seeing no other way to get everyone out unharmed, Mistral summons a deep, dark cloud.
Sarith: (( oh woops, was it not supposed to be obviousl? i thought she flew over ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	((Ran over, because her wings were covered by her cloak))
Sarith: (( lucky guess apparently ))
* Sarith walks away from the mist to find a hiding place
Mistral: (( It lasts a whole minute at this level ))
Sarith: (( double move out ))
* Paige Emberfly undoes a flap on the back of her cloak, letting her wings free. She flies up in the darkness and hides on a nearby rooftoop.
Mistral: (( Run action exists, too. ))
Mistral: (( x4 movement, full round action ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	She notices a chimney and hides behind it. « 1d20+6 = 8 + 6 = 14 »
Mistral: (( penalty to AC, I think. ))
Sarith: (( right but it would make more noise ))
Mistral: (( Damn my 20-foot movement. ))
	Jaden: 	"*Cough cough!* Mist magic? Warn me next time!" Jaden too quickly absconds from the scene.
* Sarith She finds an opening near the house and quietly walks to it. « 1d20+5 = 7 + 5 = 12 »
Sarith: (( that was a stealth check ))
	Mistral: 	Mistral runs a short distance away, looking for a dark alley to hide in herself.
	Doyle: 	"Aaawhh, what'd you do that for! Argh, can you still hear me?! I didn't give it to them! Look, I wouldn't tell you about this, but it's the only way. See, Johan took me out a good while back, for some...er, training. Yes, it's illegal, he doesn't care. We were to stop goblins that were raiding a village. I bombed. Got separated from the big Hero guy, ambushed by the very goblins we were supposed to be putting a stop to. I shot and shot...and missed every time! Leaving the things in the ground, for goblins to take! I mean, they got a penchant for explosives and bombs in the first place, they could figure out how I did it. They woulda got more, off my body, if Johan hadn't shown up and yanked me away. As it is, that teleport still cost me most of my stuff. Some weight limit... They got my bombs, my backpack, everything! I had expensive stuff in there! I'm sorry about your...father? I can't say it wasn't my fault, from the way things sound it probably was... But I didn't WANT that, you got to believe me!"
* Sarith calls out from where she is. "That sounds awfully fishy. Especially knowing since it seems so elaborate. And that you said you burned down a house."
	Sarith: 	"And even if you didn't mean it, it is your stuff that is responsible. Hence you are still at fault."
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha...why'd you guys leave? I think I'll stay in here, where the crazy girly can't see me. And also cannot shoot me!"
Mistral: (( aaand that's when it dissipates. ))
	Doyle: 	"You're not helping, Vidarr! I didn't say it wasn't.... But there's nothing I can do about it, right? It's the same as if someone took your gun and shot Forz! Would you want Selani to put you on trial for that?"
	Sarith: 	"I don't care about Selani. It's not like any of her laws get enforced. And you know that."
	Vidarr: 	"Wow, you weren't kidding...I really wasn't helping, it's all gone now! Can you do that a-gain, please?"
	Sarith: 	"And the fact that you were doing something illegal in the first place doesn't make the situation comparable."
	Mistral: 	*calls from this alley* Sorry, that's all I can make right now!
	Forz: 	"You do know that's one of her laws, too? The ones that never get enforced...?"
	Forz: 	"I will grant you it's the only one that usually IS..."
	Damekki: 	"C-can we still not find the authorities around here?"
	Davisson: 	"Quit being a tattletale, nothing has dropped dead yet!"
	Doyle: 	"Whoa, no, don't do that! They've got nothing to do with this, hehehe..."
	Jaden: 	"It's not like the guards can do diddly squat 'round here anyway. Don't we usually settle these like real men anyway?"
	Vidarr: 	"Ohh, a-fraid of the dog-man up there? What about the doggie right here, nahahaha!"
	Sarith: 	"Why don't you help me find the culprit if you say you aren't the person. And at least give some compensation."
	Sarith: 	"Like food. And money. And a place to stay."
	Davisson: 	"Grrr, don't call me doggie."
	Doyle: 	Doyle calms down, and straightens his tie. "Good to see we can go back to being civilised... Now, a place to stay? I'm looking for one, too, sad to say. For...reasons not at all related to this case."
	Sarith: 	"Also, some gunpowder would be good as well."
* Sarith walks out of her hiding spot, still holding her gun out.
	Doyle: 	"...gunpowder? I can do that, definitely...and where'd that small girl run off to? I'd planned to thank her for that..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige covers her wings again and peeks out from the chimney, "H-here I am!" She tries to climb down the building.
	Paige Emberfly: 	« 1d20 = 7 » Climb.
	Damekki: 	The dragon girl begins pouting and puts her hands on her hips. "Well if you're done with that with that little battle royale, how about we get into the palace before we all sponateously catch on fire or something? Because with our luck..."
	Sarith: 	"Not until I get a promise from him. Written down."
	Sarith: 	"He'd probably just deny he agreed to this."
	Mistral: 	Mistral sheepishly comes out from her own hiding spot. "Y-you talked her down?"
	Jaden: 	"Yeah, y'heard the girl! Let's make a promise or something!"
Doyle: (( I'm uh, sad to say that a 7 probably doesn't let you climb down the house...I guess an acro check to avoid some of the damage? ))
Doyle: (( If you can't do that, I guess Doyle could try a Reflex save to catch you or something. ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Whoop!" « 1d20+2 = 20 + 2 = 22 » Paige falls!
Doyle: (( Yeah with that you can do whatever the hell you want, somersault to New Jersey if you care. ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige grabbed a window ledge for a moment enough to slow her fall and land safely.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"That was scary..."
	Sarith: 	"Now, I want it written down. And then we can pretend this didn't happen."
	Doyle: 	"Oh!" Doyle bows at the girl, "Thank you! But, please, don't do that again! You don't look especially tough..." The kid turns to look at Sarith; "Er, yeah, sure, written down? Here, I've got a logbook... Er, I guess dye will work? The only other ink I have...won't."
	Doyle: 	*I'm not even bullshitting any of this, he just actually has a notebook in his inventory*
Mistral: (( I have a journal, ink, and inkpen (waiting) ))
* Mistral offers said inkpen, awkwardly staring off to the side
	Doyle: 	"Thank you. Now then... A written apology, and a deal for...gunpowder, was it?"
	Forz: 	"Don't worry, girl, we WILL go to the palace. After this, I only hope that Selani is actually there."
* Sarith nods.
	Sarith: 	"Don't forget food and shelter. And money."
	Sarith: 	"Although I guess gunpowder is a good substitute for money..."
	Doyle: 	"Sure, sure, money, food...shelter may be a problem. I'll ask Johan..."
* Litsne swoops in and grabs the paper as soon as he finishes writing it.
* Litsne flies back to Sarith the paper in hand.
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige notices the hawk, smiles and waves!
* Sarith takes the note from Litsne and give him a good pet.
	Sarith: 	"Alright, this better be held to."
	Doyle: 	"...a bird, huh? I can't say they're unreliable methods of delivery."
* Sarith reads the paper briefly and stashes it in her backpack.
	Davisson: 	"They however do may delicious entrees."
	Damekki: 	"Are we done yet? It seems we've completely lost track of what we were doing..."
	Forz: 	"Don't worry. I don't believe he'll betray his word. And if he does, he'll need to answer to all of us, isn't that right?"
* Sarith puts her gun back.
	Sarith: 	"Don't you dare say that about Litsne. Or I'll make a meal out of you."
	Davisson: 	The little wolf smirks and tosses his bone aside. "Calm your bones, two-legs. Just because they're delicious doesn't mean I intend to eat them...most of the time."
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha! Sure is! Can't bomb me without hitting yourself, huh, Doyle?" Vidarr looks at Damekki, and completely blanks out. After a couple seconds, he says, "Uh...huh, we did! Heroes don't gotta be on time, do they? Cause if they do I think we done scuh-rewed up."
	Sarith: 	"Says the little chihuahua. You aren't that frightening."
	Forz: 	"Ignore him. We all do."
	Damekki: 	"I dunno, maybe he'd make a pretty warm scarf..."
	Davisson: 	"Uffuuuu! When did this all turn against me? No fair!"
	Doyle: 	"...er, you're going to get blessed? I definitely can't go with you... Uh, this is yours, right?" Doyle offers the pen and ink back to Mistral.
	Jaden: 	"Now dudes and dudettes, it's time to make our way towards greatness. After all...heroes always arrive late."
	Mistral: 	"Thanks..." Mistral takes them back and puts them in her backpack. "I guess I was a bit quick on the distraction there. Are you taking care of her or...?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"U-um... c-can I come with?"
	Sarith: 	"I don't see why not unless you want to get infront of my musket again..."
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha, sure! You another Tiefling? You got the green hair-n-all!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige shakes her head.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I'm from the forests, sylvan forests..."
	Jaden: 	Jaden rubs his knuckles on his shirt, mutters "Prestidigitation!" under his breath and takes out a crude depiction of a flower from his sleeve. "Who would a gentleman like me be to refuse a lovely lady like you? You can come with me to the ends of the earth baybee..." Jaden smarmishly sonants as he hands her the flora.
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige giggles and takes the flower.
	Forz: 	"From the forests, hm? Interesting..."
	Vidarr: 	"Huh. Ya know I think that might be the first time a lady didn't ignore him."
	Damekki: 	Damekki rubs her forehead in shame. "Can't you stop being a sleazeball for one day..."
	Sarith: 	"Aha! I knew it was a fairy."
	Jaden: 	"Hey, you know the ladies love the J-man!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige worked the buttons on the back of her robes and let her dragonfly like wings fold out into the open air, seemingly free to bend.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I'm not quite used to non-fey, so please be nice to me."
	Doyle: 	"I wish I could go with you all...but, uh, I've got other things to do! Vassal-y things..."
	Forz: 	"-Most- of us are nice to near everyone." Forz shoots a glance at Davisson. "Don't fret about it."
	Mistral: 	This catches Mistral's attention immediately. "Whoa... what did you say you are again? A fairy?" She opens up her notebook and turns to a new page, filling it out methodically.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I believe my kind are called Faeryn? Not as magical as pixies, but very closely related."
	Vidarr: 	"Well, ya meet something new every day!"
	Sarith: 	"Yup. You fairies are really good at doing performances."
	Mistral: 	"Oh, but we have time for introductions later. Let's just... try to get to the castle now, please."
	Vidarr: 	"Huh? Castle? Oh! Riiiight. That."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige nodded, eagerly.
	Damekki: 	"Yeah. Thaaaaaat."
	Davisson: 	"Maybe they'll actually have sumthin' to eat there." The puppy growls, shrugging off any previous happenings.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I'm curious to see what food there is here myself."
	Forz: 	"Only one way to find out. Just remember, dinner isn't our only purpose here."
	Sarith: 	"That would be correct."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige nods again and begins to walk toward the larger buidling she identified as a castle.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Hmm hmm hmm hnnhmm~" She hummed as she tromped along.
Mistral: (( So what's Sarith doing then...? Walking off with Doyle? ))
Doyle: (( I think she's going to the castle? If she's coming with me, I guess that's all right ))
Sarith: (( i thought she would? ))
* Sarith walks off with the group.
	Doyle: 	Doyle scurries into the alleys, making sure nobody unwarranted is looking...though if they were, they'd have probably come with the whole mist thing.
Mistral: (( Kova is fuckin WORTHLESS as a guard ))
Mistral: (( then again, he's an adult in what's currently a kid setting. ))
Forz: (( Dogs are all useless ))
Forz: (( Haven't you realized this ))
Mistral: (( nope ))
	Davisson: 	Don't be so ruff
Forz: (( All right, then. Everyone's off to the castle? ))
Hendrix: (( I suppose we're already there ))
Forz: (( Yeah, sure. Forz glances at Kova on the way in, but that's about all that happens. ))
Sarith: (( yeah ))
Forz: (( All right, copy your tokens and head on over to the new map, "Selani's Castle" ))
Forz: (( Or you can just re-place them in there, if you feel like it ))
Tokens dropped onto map 'Selani's Castle' by player Agi (Player)
	Jaden: 	"Woah, fancy place. The walls are so polished I can see my lovely face in them!"
* Paige Emberfly looked around the halls with awe, pausing as she steps on a blue carpet over the the stone floor, "It's soft as moss..." She stepped on and off the plush mat.
Thrice: 	You enter the long-awaited castle, its walls adorned in regalia of all sorts, and with many forks leading to, presumably, fancy places like libraries, guards quarters, and maybe even a torture dungeon! Castles have those, right?
Mistral: (( they do. ))
	Pyrus: 	"Get your filthy fingers off the merchendise, you flilthy rascals!" A young woman walks out from the halls, a stern gaze aglow on her face as she shifts her glasses up.
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha! Woaza! I never seen nothin like this be-fore!"
	Pyrus: 	"Just a single brick on these walls is worth more than your lives ever will be!" The lady chuckles to herself. "It's funny because they're worth less than a really clean brick, kukuku~."
Paige Emberfly: 	Paige counted on her fingers, "Hmm.. how much is that? I don't understand value very well yet."
Mistral: (( you might want to reimpersonate, Rob ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige made sure to stand on the carpet, worried she might sully the valuable bricks.
	Myrtille: 	"Ofuuuu my, it seems we're reeeaaaal popular with the kiddies today, ufuuuu!"
	Forz: 	"Do you know who you're talking to? We're future Heroes, for your information. Now, where is Selani?"
	Mistral: 	"I'd hope so! Today's the day we get our blessings!"
	Myrtille: 	Out from the halls dances a strange, lanky figure, with no real discernable face. Yet you can still tell it's still looking down upon your dirt cheap faces.
* Sarith decides to look around the room and see if she notices anything interesting or unusual. Perception: « 1d20+8 = 20 + 8 = 28 »
	Pyrus: 	The pointy-eared lady snickers hard under her breath, trying to prevent herself from running out of breath. "Y-you? Future heroes? KYYAAAAKUKUUUKUUU, you're killing me here! I should charge you for assault!"
	Pyrus: 	"Kukuku, it's funny because they're so pathetic, I'm charging them for the crime of making me laugh to death. C'mon, isn't that great?"
	Myrtille: 	"Just marvelous!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige shakes her head, mostly baffled by their display. She decides to join in laughing herself though, and lets out a hearty guffaw while holding her belly.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Hohohoho!"
	Pyrus: 	Pyrus freezes mid-laugh, and turns her gaze at the fey. "Th-that's not how you're supposed to react..."
	Sarith: 	"You know pointy-ears, you might get a bit more of a reaction if you could actually back up your claims."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Sorry!"
	Damekki: 	"Who exactly are these jokers now?"
Mistral: (( Untrained Knowledge (local) check? ))
	Haze: 	With a perception roll like that, you can notice the decorations in the room. They look oddly reminiscent of what you'd see at a wedding reception. There are swords crossed over rings, dresses, and some sort of...medieval toasters, as well as paintings of gatherings of people.
Mistral: (( or would it be Nobility ))
Sarith: (( this would be nobility, but local could be traditions? ))
	Pyrus: 	"Kukuu, so you dirty, sticky little rapscallions think you deserve blessing from the great Selani? Do you know what you're dealing with here?"
Agi says to the GMs: « 1d20+2 = 16 + 2 = 18 » I wonder if I've ever heard of these chumps
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha, you'll be bowin at my feet in a fee-ew short years, lady! No but really and seriously, where is the big girl in charge?"
Agi says to the GMs: aw damn that's not the secret one.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Nope! But there was a group of people who were really excited about coming so I thought I would join in and see what was so amazing about this place!"
Agi says to the GMs: rsec, I think it was.
Vidarr: (( /gm should do it. ))
* Agi rolls secretly to you: « 1d20+2 = 4 + 2 = 6 » And now I nat 1 => Invalid expression: « 1d20+2 = 4 + 2 = 6 » And now I nat 1.
* Sarith Know: Local check « 1d20+4 = 2 + 4 = 6 »
Vidarr: (( Did everyone see that, then? ))
Sarith: (( oh woops ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	((Yep))
Sarith: (( ignore my roll then ))
	Myrtille: 	"Uffuuu, last I checked, Selani was in charge of some...service? Not sure why'd she'd stoop so low as to service you brats with blessings, but you're plum outta luck, rugrats! Selani ain't here to give you any blessings now! Uuuffuuuuu~!"
	Mistral: 	"She's not?" Mistral knows that these two can be a bit troublesome, and is suspicious they might be lying about Selani's absence.
	Mistral: 	Sense Motive: 18
	Pyrus: 	"Kukukuu, not sure why you bothered, really. You aren't blessed enough to wipe the dirt off my shoes!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Really? I don't think this place has very nice dirt." Paige frowns. "Maybe dirt of the woods, but dirt here? I think I'm that good."
	Sarith: 	"I wouldn't take that coming from you, pointy-ears. IF anything, it might be more threatening if you could even wield the swords hung up on the wall down yonder."
	Vidarr: 	"Ey, we gots pointy ears, too..."
You whisper to Agi: They seem to be rather firm in their words, nothing quite suspicious about it. Thoguh it can be hard to read through such douchiness.
Agi says to the GMs: That is a LOT of douchiness to read through, yeah.
	Damekki: 	"I'm...used to it by now, really."
	Mistral: 	"Well... when is she supposed to be back?"
	Forz: 	"Yes, knowing that would be helpful. We could just wait for her, surely she wouldn't condone this."
	Pyrus: 	"Swords? Kuuu, don't make me sneer, I haven't the need to dispatch of you with such barbarianisms."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Ooo! What do you do?!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige looked up excitedly. "Are you a magician?"
	Myrtille: 	"When's she supposed to be back? Hopefully never, as long as your faces are around!"
	Pyrus: 	"Magician? Don't make me laugh, I don't dabble in such immature past times!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"... what do you do then?"
	Pyrus: 	"Now, science and alchemy? That's where the real money is these days!
	Pyrus: 	"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Oohh... I don't know much about that." Paige observed. "I'm new to all these big cities, I'm from the woods you see."
	Pyrus: 	"See, maybe when you grow into your big girl panties, you'll understand!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Would you like a marble?"
	Vidarr: 	"Oh, so yer like Doyle, huh? Nahahaha! That explains eh-verything! Yer just crazy."
	Sarith: 	"You know for a alchemist, it doesn't seem like you do it very often. Heck, you don't seem smart enough to do it."
	Sarith: 	an*
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I wouldn't say that, she seems to be a very straight forward sort of thinker. A sharp mind for preciece studies, I say!"
	Sarith: 	"Straight-forward? No. A little scatter-brained seems more likely."
	Pyrus: 	Pyrus takes out a book of sweet sciency stuff and hugs it tight. "Oh sweet, wonderful science. I cannot wait until the day you prove that using mayonnaise causes typhoons and that Cayden Cailean and Jesus are the same pers- Are you questioning my scientific authorities!?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Some of the greatest fey are scatterbrained too!"
	Sarith: 	"You know, you aren't helping yourself..."
	Vidarr: 	"Yeah, see? It's okay! Look at how she hugs that...thing. She's not a bitch, she's just nuts."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Some of the greatest fey are just nuts!"
	Sarith: 	"Books are good, but the best alchemy is done with fire and metal and glass."
	Sarith: 	"Through experimentation and watching explosions."
	Pyrus: 	"Listen brats! You wouldn't know nuts from fruits! Why don't you go play with soap box carriages or whatever the hell you do nowadays?"
	Forz: 	"You sound like Doyle. Maybe you two have more in common than you think."
	Myrtille: 	"Bu-but nuts are-"
	Pyrus: 	"I can dismantle you as easily as I made you Myrtille, don't even think about it!"
	Sarith: 	"I'd rather not be like that untrusty person. I just have seen enough and know enough to be understand what is ridiculous and what is okay."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I know nuts from fruits, I eat both of them often."
	Pyrus: 	"Grrr...Alright, fine. you little brats win. Think you're really good enough to recieve blessings? Like, do you REALLY think you are?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Nope! But I will try my hardest!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige nodded with confidence.
	Mistral: 	"We wouldn't be here if we weren'- mumblegrumb- MOST OF US wouldn't be were if we weren't."
	Sarith: 	"Think? Look, we know. And it part of the culture at this age to be blessed."
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha! You asking that NOW? Look-it me! Tall n strong! Ain't that all a Hero needs?"
	Jaden: 	Jaden twirls his shoulder, striding with utmost confidence. "Bring it on crazy chick, we can take whatever you throw at us!"
	Pyrus: 	Pyrus leans back, Myrtille catching her, and sits in the golem's hand like a chair as her glasses gleam a ghostly white sheen. "Alright, fine. If you wanna be blessed, you gotta prove it. And the only way we know how to prove it round these parts is..."
	Pyrus: 	"Uh...could you all move a bit further up?"
Mistral: (( X-TREEM DANCE OFF ))
	Pyrus: 	"Like, just a step further?"
Sarith: (( i'd like to roll a perception check again, this time on the rug ))
Mistral: (( perf ))
Vidarr: (( Perforated? I don't think that has anything to do with this ))
Vidarr: (( But - sure, you can roll a perception check ))
Mistral: (( Y'know, with these two? ))
Mistral: (( it just might. ))
	Sarith: 	Perception: « 1d20+8 = 16 + 8 = 24 »
	Mistral: 	*I WILL ROLL SENSE MOTIVE AND THEN GET PUSHED FORWARD BY THE DRAGONGIRL ANYWAY.*
	Mistral: 	Sense Motive: 10
Mistral: (( damn. ))
	Vidarr: 	*Hey, technically we're DEMON people*
	Vidarr: 	*there, now I proved you can trust us*
	Sarith: 	Sense Motive: « 1d20+3 = 7 + 3 = 10 »
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige stepped forward upon being prompted to.
You whisper to Snowbear22: the carpet seems a bit creaky. Just a bit.
	Vidarr: 	"I dun-no if I can move just one step... I ain't too good at that, ya know? But I can try!" Vidarr zooms forward and around Paige, and nearly knocks into Pyrus. "So, this part of the blessing or something?
	Vidarr: 	"
	Forz: 	"Do you really trust these people?! Don't get closer to them!"
	Pyrus: 	"*AHEM*" Pyrus kicks Vidarr down the steps. "This should be a good enough spot."
	Pyrus: 	"Alright! It's time for your wonderful blessing happy fun time! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ "
	Vidarr: 	"Argh! Ya didn't have to do that! You did that! Why'd you do that for?!"
* Sarith rolls up the carpet a bit from where she is
	Sarith: 	"Boys..."
	Sarith: 	"Always doing something silly"
	Pyrus: 	Pyrus presses a button on her sleeve, making the area around the kids shine brightly. "I call this, my super-scientific SCRAM contraption!" The carpet turns into a giant hand, grappling all the kids within its giant, cotton fists.
Mistral: (( welp, Davisson got out lucky. ))
Vidarr: (( They DO know they're on the carpet too right ))
Mistral: (( it grappled all the KIDS ))
Pyrus: (( nah, it's only the upper edge that does anything ))
Mistral: (( >upper ))
Mistral: (( oho ))
Vidarr: (( They're ON the upper edge ))
Pyrus: (( -their- upper ))
Vidarr: (( kinda fucked emselves over there, not bad ))
Sarith: (( i'm not on any part of the carpet. ))
Pyrus: (( YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN (ANNOYED) ))
Vidarr: (( Honestly I'm not, but I'll take your word for it ))
Pyrus: (( Do I really have to draw an AoE for this ))
Mistral: (( no. ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	(( I'm waiting for whatever defense there is ))
Vidarr: (( For the simple reason we wouldn't be able to get it off the map, no ))
Mistral: (( Though apparently Sarith is safe ))
Sarith: (( yes plase draw whatever ))
Sarith: (( i am confused on stuff ))
Vidarr: (( It turned into a hand, and tried to grab people ))
Vidarr: (( So, I suppose it'd be a combat maneuver ))
Vidarr: (( But that means getting into grappling rules ))
Vidarr: (( let me find the flowchart... ))
Mistral: (( *COVERS DICE* ))
	Pyrus: 	The exact specifics is that underneath the carpet is a giant, velvet hand from which the carpet turns into
Sarith: (( we can just assume it got everyone and whatever ))
Sarith: (( *covers dice* ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	(( I dunno, it's pretty simple in Pathfinder ))
	Pyrus: 	Or, better yet, everyone roll reflex
Pyrus: (( that's far simpler ))
Vidarr: (( Oh it is, until anyone tries to do anything about it ))
	Sarith: 	« 1d20+7 = 16 + 7 = 23 »
	Vidarr: 	« 1d20+2 = 18 + 2 = 20 »
	Paige Emberfly: 	« 1d20+2 = 2 + 2 = 4 »
	Forz: 	« 1d20+1 = 6 + 1 = 7 »
Mistral: (( aw shit. ))
Mistral: (( I don't have that. ))
	Mistral: 	« 1d20 = 13 »
	Jaden: 	« 1d20+4 = 2 + 4 = 6 »
	Damekki: 	« 1d20+5 = 16 + 5 = 21 »
	Vidarr: 	Actually, I probably took a penalty to that what with being on my ass
	Vidarr: 	But, whatever
Mistral: (( ass slidin'. ))
	Pyrus: 	The hand carpet turns into a hand, pushing all those who rolled under a 20 out the door with extreme prejudice.
	Pyrus: 	"Kuuukuu! It works! It woooooooorrrrks! Isn't it lovely?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Kyeaahahahaahaa!
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige laughs like crazy and tumbles in the air, catching herself and flying in place outside the castle, still rolling with laughter.
	Vidarr: 	Vidarr grabs the pillar to his right with his tail, and swings his way free from the carpet.
	Vidarr: 	That's the only way I can justify it while being on my ass
	Mistral: 	"Aaaahh!" Mistral is unceremoniously shunted out the front.
	Damekki: 	"H-hey! What was that for?! Wait up for meeeee!"
	Forz: 	Forz, however, is totally swept up by the carpet!
* Sarith deftly takes a few steps back
	Damekki: 	Damekki runs towards those that were pushed out. "This is getting to be too much...."
	Sarith: 	"As I suspected..."
	Davisson: 	"Well this was lame. There's not even any complimentary food here!"
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahahaha! You gotta be faster than that to catch me!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Lets go back and do it again!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige flew back to the castle with the others.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Keeheehee! And I thought non-fey were no fun! That was a tricky one!"
	Pyrus: 	Pyrus adjusts her glasses, tapping her foot and looking unamused. "That's supposed to mean -SCRAM!-." Pyrus activates the hand once again, sending Paige flying out.
	Forz: 	"Argh..who installs these things?!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Reflex! « 1d20+2 = 10 + 2 = 12 »
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Kyeaaahaahaha!"
	Sarith: 	"People with too much time on their hands..."
	Vidarr: 	"Are we s'posed to fight now? IS this the part where we fight,? There IS a part where we fight, right?"
	Sarith: 	"How about you just let us through and save the trouble?"
	Mistral: 	"Sounds like them, alright... I don't think they were lying about Selani being gone, though. Where could she be?"
	Pyrus: 	*Ahem* "That includes you too, lady. Plus, didn't you read the NO PETS ALLOWED sign? Get your birdie and mutt outta here too!?"
	Davisson: 	"Mutt? How degrading..."
	Sarith: 	"There were was no such sign around."
	Pyrus: 	"Well I'm going to install one, just because you said so!"
	Sarith: 	"I will leave on my own will, but only if you tell us where to get blessed."
	Forz: 	"We could look for Selani..."
	Pyrus: 	Pyrus adjusts her glasses. "Selani is out, tending to some crops or something. Why don't you ask some other loser, like I dunno...Johan or something?"
	Vidarr: 	"If she ain't in the castle, I guess I can't just go runnin through lookin for her?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige flew back in, this time staying tot he side.
	Pyrus: 	"I bet he's just depraved enough to bother fiddling about with you messy rugrats."
* Sarith rolls her eyes.
Mistral: (( oh right, we don't NEED Selani, specifically ))
Mistral: (( any hero works ))
	Sarith: 	"Hmmph. You know, there are better ways of doing stuff. Would you at least be kind of enough to provide an official letter?"
	Forz: 	"...if we're going to Johan, anything official is sure to get us turned away.
	Forz: 	"
	Sarith: 	"Probably."
	Vidarr: 	"He IS the one what blessed Doyle. But I always heard Selani was the one to go to for this jazz."
	Pyrus: 	"To who? Selani?" Pyrus grabs her stomach and laughs. "Kukuku! Why would I ever do that?"
* Sarith pulls out her gun.
	Sarith: 	"You know, for being a scientist, I'm sure you have lots of explosive material around."
Mistral: (( Jesus christ girl. ))
Sarith: (( its not pointed at anyone ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Playing aside, is there anything you can do to help us? I-" Paige stops as she notices the gun, "Stop that!"
	Sarith: 	"Hmph. Fine."
	Pyrus: 	The elvan alchemist adjusts her glasses yet again, making it so that her eyes are clouded in a ghostly sheen once again. "Aren't you a bit to young to be playing with those things, brat?"
* Sarith puts away the gun, a little annoyed.
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige smiled warmly, "thank you!"
Mistral: (( Oh right, Daylight Savings time is today ))
Mistral: (( so it's actually an hour earlier, whoo ))
	Sarith: 	"You know, I might, but I know how to use it."
	Vidarr: 	"Hunh? We all gots wea-pons. Ain't that legal?"
	Vidarr: 	"We're kids, right, not children! That makes it okay, I heard that from Doyle."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I'm thirty!" Paige waved her hand.
	Sarith: 	"I'd say it is heirloom from someone who passed away from who suffered from the hands of the goblins."
	Sarith: 	"I'm sure Selani would be interested in perhaps investigating the incident and dealing out justice."
	Pyrus: 	"That's about a baby in my terms, girl. And I don't care what the sob story is behind that stick, you've wasted me time long enough!"
Forz: (( So now she's a PIRATE alchemist? ))
Pyrus: (( yes ))
Mistral: (( I'm just about laughing hysterically right now. ))
Pyrus: (( That's what I do ))
Sarith: (( don't blame me for being trigger happy ))
Mistral: (( THAT IS PERHAPS A PERFECT THING TO BLAME YOU FOR ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Oh yes! I'm sorry for wasting your time, I forgot why I was here! Some sort of blessing? You seem to really know your stuff, do you know where we could go or who we could talk to? I'm really in this new area..." Diplomacy! « 1d20+8 = 1 + 8 = 9 »
	Paige Emberfly: 	(Another nat 1 diplomacy)
	Sarith: 	"I'd say you wasted our time enough. There is little point to fighting with a talkative pointy-ears who has no manners."
	Myrtille: 	"Uffuuufuu, goblins are always quite a pain these days, aren't they? I feel for her, if only a bit. So filthy!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Oh! Big guy! Do you know?"
Mistral: (( lessee what I could do on Diplomacy « 1d20+8+2 = 4 + 8 + 2 = 14 » ))
Mistral: (( not much better. ))
	Pyrus: 	"I TOLD YOU! TALK TO JOHAN! HE'LL DEAL WITH YOU, THE BASTARD!"
	Sarith: 	"Looks it's no use talking about this. Let us leave with dignity and pride."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Oh! I'm sorry, I should have remembered that, the tossling distracted me. Where is Johan?"
	Vidarr: 	"ARE WE YELLIN NOW? I LIKE YELLIN! IT GETS PEOPLE TO LISTEN TO ME!"
	Davisson: 	"I WANT FOOOOOD!"
* Sarith walks out the door, disgusted.
	Pyrus: 	"See how this place is in the east? Well, Johan makes his living over in the east. It's pretty natural, really!"
Pyrus: (( *THE WEEST ))
	Pyrus: 	*THE WEEEEST OH PLEASE KILL ME
Pyrus: (( as in, this place is in the west ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Okay! Thank you!" Paige waved, "It was a pleasure meeting you! Maybe you can show me how you made the carpet thing. Can you throw me one more time?"
	Pyrus: 	"Sure thing! You just press this button and- hey wait, this isn't supposed to be a toy y'know!" But it's too late, as she pressed the button anyway, sending Paige flying yet again
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Wheeeheeheehee!"
	Davisson: 	"Grrr, how dumb"
	Forz: 	"Of course it's a toy...anyone above twelve would just call the guards to take us out."
	Vidarr: 	"Oh, we're leaving now? Okay, was fun seein you guys! I'll re-member ya once I'm a Hero, nahahaha!"
	Pyrus: 	"Guards? Who do you take us for? There's no such need for silly guards as long as I have science! Isn't that right, cotton hand?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige seemed considerably more at ease now, flying openly through the air, her hood down and moth-like antennae bobbing in the air.
	Pyrus: 	"Oh yes, you're the only one who -truly- understands how I feel, cotton hand."
	Myrtille: 	"Bu-but what about-"
	Pyrus: 	"-only- one who understands how I feel, cotton hand."
	Forz: 	"Besides, everyone knows area rugs are best made from wool." Forz turns his back on the crazy alchemist and walks out of the castle...
	Myrtille: 	"BUUU HUUUUU!!!!"
	Vidarr: 	Vidarr dashes out after the rest, almost left alone with these nuts...
Mistral: (( How long of a walk is it to the other side of the city? ))
Vidarr: (( Hm, I dunno. Guess about... « 10+1d20 = 10 + 11 = 21 » minutes or so? ))
	Davisson: 	"Dammit, this Johan guy better have truckloads of food to make up for this"
Mistral: (( that's not too far at all. ))
Thrice: 	That's if you're hustlin'
	Sarith: 	know:local check: « 1d20+4 = 11 + 4 = 15 »
Paige Emberfly: 	Paige bobs and swings through the air, dancing by herself as she followed the crowd.
	Mistral: 	"If I didn't know better, I'd say we just CAME from Johan's. Why does Selani keep them around?"
	Jaden: 	"Hmm, maybe we should have arrived about an hour earlier..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige smelled the flower Jaden had given her and giggled.
	Vidarr: 	"Nahaha, we mighta if we hadn't gotten all caught up! But I preferred that."
Davisson: (( So, are they fast travelling to Johans, or..... ))
	Mistral: 	"You PREFERRED the near shoot-out in the middle of the street?"
	Jaden: 	"Huh-hey, better to get it all out sooner before later, know what I mean?"
	Sarith: 	"You know, this isn't loaded, right?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Whaaa!?"
	Forz: 	"I certainly didn't prefer it. We could be vassals already. No sense complaining, though. The faster we walk the sooner we get blessed."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Really!?"
	Sarith: 	"Why would I be carelessly pointing around something loaded? That's just asking for things to go wrong..."
	Mistral: 	"...that's good to hear, but it doesn't change much of anything. You're still pointing that threat."
	Sarith: 	"At this point, I rather get this blessing over with. Why do we even need it anyways?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige smiled, "See! I knew you were a good person!"
	Vidarr: 	"Whass loaded mean? Oh, you couldn't shoot us? Huh. But hey that's for the bet-ter, right? I mean, had you shot at me, you woulda just wasted a bullet. Those're fast, but I'm faster! And shootin Doyle woulda just blown us all up."
	Forz: 	"Can we get on with this?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Mmhm! We're on our way, are we not?"
	Sarith: 	"There better be some food we get for it..."
Thrice: 	The further you get from Selani's castle and the west end of town, you notice things seem less and less orderly. There is more grass around, and houses are sparse.
Thrice: 	However, the amount of people in the streets seems to increase; where in the west end, there was only really one guard, in the east, a few stragglers hang around.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Mmm... Grilled dragonfly kabob with pepryn spice and soy sauce!"
	Mistral: 	"Is everyone really that hungry?"
	Radio: 	Contrasting theme music!
	Sarith: 	"What, are you something that doesn't eat at all, miss bone girl?"
	Radio: 	NOW PLAYING

	Vidarr: 	"Yes! I hunger! I mean, I'm hungry."
	Davisson: 	"Nice to see we're all finally on the same page"
Sarith: (( i like this music ") ))
	Mistral: 	"I don't eat any more than my fair share, no."
Thrice: 	Oh, and also, a new map has been unlocked!
	Mistral: 	"I do carry food on me though - just the basics. Bread, cheese, water, if anyone really can't hold out."
	Jaden: 	"Man, I hate comin' to this part of town. It's hard to tell my left from my right around here. Or is that my up? Is that down? This shiz be mad wack!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Hum, hum hum hnnn~"

Mistral: (( yeah, this is definitely a theme of chaos. ))
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha, really? I like it! Ain't nowhere to get lost in Selani's place."
Mistral: (( This map looks familiar too, wasn't this a ForgettablePTA map? ))
Vidarr: (( Might be from the same game? Dunno ))
	Sarith: 	"Well, at least there might be something useful here...."
	Damekki: 	"Just keep on the road, and we should be fine..."
Mistral: (( SALAZAAH ))
Vidarr: (( Maybe so ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Excuse me Mister! Do you know where we can find a Johan?"
	Haze: 	So! Here on the east end of town, there's a pretty big fountain, in what seems to be the town square. At least, that's where most people are.
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige flew up to the nearest person she could find.
Mistral: (( Why do I keep looking away for 10 seconds ))
	Temujin: 	"Hoo-wah?" The old man turns around to face Paige. "What was that, um, young missy? I was watching the waters, afraid I didn't quite catch what you said?"
	Temujin: 	"It was you, yes? Or mayhaps one of the other young missies? I've never seen so many children around! Hoohaha!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I'm looking for a Johan, I'm trying to become a hero."
	Temujin: 	"-A- Johan? Why, I wonder which! My, there's only the one. He stays...well, you can see it from here. Big sign, says Inn? Quite convenient being in the middle of town."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Oh ho ho!" Paige points. "Thank you mister, here!" She reaches into a pounch by her side and pulls out a clear marble. She checks it against the sun and squints. "Mmhm! Quality marble!" She nods and beams with delight, floating over to the man and placing the marble in his hand. "Here you go!"
	Jaden: 	"What kind of ghetto cheapo makes his living in an Inn? This whole place makes no sense, yo..."
	Temujin: 	"Oh! Thank you. I wonder how the water would look through this..."
	Sarith: 	"I don't imagine this to be cheap. It is probably his own inn..."
	Damekki: 	"Pretty sure living in an Inn would be even more expensive in the long-run..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige bobbed and danced through the air, she reached the door placed her hand on the knob. "Oh! With these places you knock first, right?" She knocked on the door.
	Davisson: 	"At least Inns tend to have food. Even pansy two-legger food will work at this point."
	Salazar: 	Salazar's muttering under his breath... "Going to see Johan...? You know, lots of kids seem to be visiting that guy lately... Are they really kids? Or is he part of some kind of underground midget conspiracy?"
* Sarith walks over to the inn and knocks on the door.
	Forz: 	"An inn.... Why would a Hero stay at an inn?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Heroes travel, don't they?"
	Sarith: 	"That's where all the good stories and shows are, silly."
	Haley: 	You hear a bit of scraping and what sounds like a chair scooting around. "H-huh? Another visitor?! Uh, come in! This is an inn, you know..."
	Haley: 	*all right, there we go*
	Haley: 	*lots of map-changing here, you better get used to it*
Davisson: (( you bet your booty butt cheeks there is ))
Mistral: (( changing to a GIGANTIC QUESTION MARK ))
Tokens dropped onto map 'Johan's Quarters' by player Agi (Player)
Paige Emberfly: 	Paige let herself in as she was promted. She spun in the air once and bowed to Haley. "Hello!"
Mistral: (( gonna reco ))
Agi is disconnected.
Agi has connected.
Haley: (( You probably need to restart maptool itself, if you're out of memory ))
Haley: (( Due to keeping Maptool open for LITERALLY WEEKS ))
Agi: (( yeah it's still a question mark ))
Agi: (( Hey, I booted this one fresh today. ))
Agi: (( I think. No I didn't. ))
Agi is disconnected.
	Haley: 	Haley's still ruffling through some papers, and shoving them into random drawers. "Whoah...this is more people than I've ever seen here at once. Sorry to disappoint, but we only have four beds..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"We
	Paige Emberfly: 	"We're here to see someone."
Sarith: 	"I don't think we are all here to stay. We just want to talk to Johani."
Agi has connected.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"A Johan. The only Johan I was told."
Sarith: 	Johan*
Mistral: (( there we go. ))
	Vidarr: 	"Yeah, he's gotta be here, right?!"
	Jaden: 	"Heh-heey, four beds is all we nee-"
	Haley: 	"Er, right. He's here. Through the room at the end of the hallway, and up the stairs! There's only really one room up there, and it's his."
	Damekki: 	Damekki karate chops Jaden in the skull
* Sarith looks around and tries to see if there is anything she can spot anything intersting with the innkeeper or the inn. « 1d20+8 = 16 + 8 = 24 »
	Jaden: 	"Owww....."
Sarith: 	"Thank you very much."
Mistral: (( You really DO roll well on percep. ))
Sarith: (( I told you ))
	Mistral: 	"There's no chance Selani is here too, is there? We just came from her castle."
	Sarith: 	"I don't think those two get along so well, as far as I have heard."
	Haze: 	There isn't too much strange about the Inn itself - for what you can tell, it's pretty much just an inn. However, you can hear a piece of very faint, but nostalgiac music playing, as if just out of earshot. Now, what's laying around the inn, that's something else; you notice a lot of little papers strewn across the floor, along with little knick-knacks. You can spot an inkpen, a flint and steel, what looks like a wooden fork, and even a ring and an odd symbol that you think you remember seeing some clerics carrying. It's as if everyone who comes here has a hole in their pocket.
	Haley: 	"Huh, Selani? No, she doesn't come around often...It's been at least a week since she was here?"
	Jaden: 	"It's as if everyone who comes here has a hole in their pocket!"
	Sarith: 	"I suppose you pass the time playing with the trinkets on your desk. Is that the lost and found?"
	Haley: 	"Oh, dear planet, no! That's out back. There's just no enough space in here...this is just what I haven't picked up this week. It's almost cleaning time."
	Sarith: 	"I do like the music though."
	Haley: 	not*
	Haley: 	"We have to hire a new janitor every week...nobody ever comes back."
	Sarith: 	"Would you mind walking us over to Johan? I'm sure it would help us being taken a bit more seriously."
	Sarith: 	"However, do you mind if I look at that ring thing?"
	Haley: 	"Uhm, sure? I don't have a lot else to do, I guess? I don't think you'll get lost, but, I can do it." Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any exit here, so Haley has to hop over the counter. Poor her. "Ring? Sure, I guess? It isn't mine."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige flipped over the counter to take Haley's place.
	Haley: 	"Er, you okay back there? I thought you wanted to see Johan?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Mmhm!"
	Sarith: 	"She's a bit absent-minded."
	Haze: 	The ring appears to be but a normal band, if not a somewhat expensive-looking one.
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I wanted to see what it was like back here..." Paige pouted and jumped back.
* Sarith pockets the ring and follows the innkeeper.
	Haley: 	"It's...embarrassingly messy. I'm sorry you had to see it, honestly."
	Sarith: 	"Thank you for helping us out."
	Haley: 	Haley walks up the stairs, and knocks on Johan's door. "Um, sir? You have visitors. ..more visitors."
	Johan: 	You can hear a barely-muffled, bored, dragging voice from behind the door. "They don't want me to...file anything? Sort? Do paperwork? I've had enough of that business in the past hour to last me my whole life. Do you know how long a Hero's life is?!"
	Davisson: 	"I think someone dropped some trail mix here. Yummy."
	Haley: 	"I..don't know. Uh, what is it you wanted?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"A blessing?" She looked to the others to be sure.
	Sarith: 	"Something like that."
* Mistral nods
	Vidarr: 	"Is he eatin off the floor? Cool! Can I have some?"
	Davisson: 	"Get your own, chump"
	Johan: 	"A blessing? How unexpected. Well, what are you standing around for? Let them in!"
	Damekki: 	"This is certainly a much better change of pace! I like this guy already!"
	Haley: 	"Yes, sir!" Haley opens the door, and turns to walk back down the stairs...only to see a line of children blocking her way. So, instead she steps into JOhan's quarters.
	Haley: 	*To the right, folks*
	Haley: 	*this is gonna get crowded*
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Hello!"
* Sarith spots Doyle.
	Sarith: 	"Oh it's you again."
	Sarith: 	"You better be paying for my stay here, Doyle."
	Johan: 	"...visitors, indeed. I wasn't expecting an armada."
	Grale: 	"Hrrmmmnn" Grale gets up from off the bed. "What's goi- Oh, hohoho. Who's the birthday boy today, huh?"
	Doyle: 	"Pay? Hehe, you don't need to pay! Er, so long as you...meet the qualifications."
	Mistral: 	"Thank you for showing us the way." @ Haley
"And for BEING here." @ Johan
	Haley: 	"Wasn't expecting...that's, uh, good, right?"
* Sarith pulls out the sheet of paper with his writing.
	Sarith: 	"I beleive it says here you would provide shelter."
	Johan: 	"Yes, yes. All is well."
	Sarith: 	believe*
	Sarith: 	"But anyways, where are my manners?"
	Doyle: 	"Yes! I've talked about it with Johan, you'll find out soon..."
	Vidarr: 	"Man, this issa lot small-er than the castle."
	Sarith: 	"Better than the stupid secretary she had..."
	Grale: 	Grale strokes her chin, grabbing a large grimoire from the side of her bed and fastening it to her side. "To be fair, we don't usually expect the tyke inquisition to show their faces at all times. But what's the point of expecting things in this day and age?"
	Johan: 	"Ugh..that place is torture. Everything's all...mise en place. You can't find a thing!"
	Johan: 	"But, no matter. You're here for a blessing?"
* Sarith nods her head.
	Forz: 	"Of course. It was a long walk.."
	Jaden: 	"Ya dang right we're here for a blessing! We walked for ages trying to look for one around here!"
	Johan: 	"Then I expect you're ready for the necessary procedures?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Nope! But we can try!"
	Sarith: 	"it doesn't involve a carpet contraption, does it?"
	Damekki: 	"There are necessary procedures?"
	Johan: 	"You don't know?! Cooome oooon! I don't wanna explain anything! Oh, wait. I won't. That's solved." Johan looks over at the tiefling girl. "Carpet? Like the one that little girl put in? I do so like it, but I haven't been able to make one of my own quite yet.
	Johan: 	"
	Johan: 	"Now, then...Uh, Grale?"
	Haley: 	*You know, now would be a good time to remember that I forgot to leave*
	Grale: 	Grale crosses her arms and moves her head over to the side, "Oh, is it that time already?"
	Davisson: 	"Hey, you aren't hiding any food, are you?" Davisson drags Forz's leg down and tries to get a better view.
	Johan: 	"Of course. Doyle, you're ready? Even if you're not, you are now. You should know how it's done, after all."
	Forz: 	"...what are you doing? Let go of me, you stupid dog."
* Sarith giggles at Forz
	Doyle: 	"Uh, yeah, I gotcha."
	Grale: 	"Oh, young lady.." Grale turns her view to Sarith. Mind picking up something for me down there?
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige sits crosslegged at the floor, watching everyone.
	Grale: 	"I think you should be able to find it, it's near the legs of that green horned girl."
	Mistral: 	[1d20+4
	Mistral: 	« 1d20+4 = 16 + 4 = 20 » *casual percep check for whatever it is*
Grale: (( there seems to be a strange crease near the legs of the dragon lady ))
Mistral: (( I'm not touching that joke ))
Grale: (( good ))
Grale: (( because that would make you awful ))
Doyle: (( You set yourself up for that one, Tirk ))
	Sarith: 	"Is this really another trap?"
Mistral: (( ...WHY did I not prepare Detect Magic? ))
Mistral: (( stupid. ))
	Mistral: 	0th Level: Light, Create Water, Read Magic, Enhanced Diplomacy 1st Level: X Obscuring Mist, Sanctuary,

Mistral: (( I thought I put /self on that? ))
	Johan: 	"Trap, schnapps. They're both fine."
Johan: (( just be glad it wasn't the full spell list AGAIN. ))
	Sarith: 	"hm...."
Mistral: (( maybe ))
	Grale: 	"-Another- trap? What shady places do you go to, woman?"
	Sarith: 	"Don't ask."
* Sarith tries looking for whatever it is. « 1d20+8 = 11 + 8 = 19 »
	Mistral: 	"Just... here, I'll do it. 'scuse me."
Sarith: (( i don't get as high if i don't initiate it, lol ))
	Mistral: 	*feels for the crease near the dragon girl's legs : |*
	Damekki: 	"Lemme move first :| "
Damekki: (( There is still a small crease in the rug, but it seems sorta elusive to your grasp. ))
Grale: (( it's almost as if a small object is rolling around there ))
Mistral: (( under the rug? ))
Grale: (( yep ))
	Mistral: 	"Looks like it's underneath. Could you step off for a sec?"
	Grale: 	"No good, I'm afraid! The corners of the rug are nailed to the ground..."
	Mistral: 	"...I'll just reach in from the sides, then."
	Grale: 	"And really, we'd prefer if you'd keep it that way. Just roll the object out of the rug..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"C'mere! Come come to Paigie~" Handle Animal « 1d20+8 = 2 + 8 = 10 »
	Johan: 	"It's so it won't get lost. Everything's nailed to the floor except that which I WANT lost."
Grale: (( whatever is in the rug is unresponsive to you ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	((2! It's a new record for charisma checks!))
	Sarith: 	"Is there something you are specific you are looking for? Perhaps a ring?"
Sarith: (( lol ))
Mistral: (( Nothin' to roll for me then? ))
	Grale: 	"Hmm, you could say that. Try looking for yourself, you have a bit of an...aura about you."
	Grale: 	"Maybe it'll stop moving around your presence."
* Sarith pulls out the ring she was handed by Haley.
	Mistral: 	*shrug* "Give it a sho- wasn't that the ring down on the desk? I thought you put that back?"
	Sarith: 	"Hm? Oh sorry. I thought I would take a closer look at it when i got a chance to sit down."
	Sarith: 	"But, no, I didn't put it back. I was going to return it eventually..."
	Mistral: 	"Whatever. There's something under the rug here, I can't get ahold of it."
	Johan: 	"A ring? Return it? To whom? I don't even know who it belongs to."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige jumped down to examine the lump, "Nnn?"
	Johan: 	"Is it supposed to be mine?"
	Sarith: 	"I wasn't sure."
	Vidarr: 	"What are we do-in? Somethin about some rug? It's always the rugs! Ne-ver trust anything a rug tells ya!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige pokes the lump.
Grale: (( it's still avoding you ))
	Sarith: 	"Why not use the bone to poke at whatever it is?"
	Mistral: 	"It's not the rug, it's the thing UNDER it... something's moving around, that's for sure!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Hello? Do you want to come out?" Handle animal « 1d20+8 = 4 + 8 = 12 »
Vidarr: (( you're getting there, hon ))
Mistral: (( I never GOT the bone ))
Mistral: (( lol ))
Mistral: (( doggy wouldn't let me have it ))
	Grale: 	Grale begins rolling her eyes and mutters something under her breath.
Snowbear22 is disconnected.
	Forz: 	"Speaking of bones, get OFF me, you stupid dog!"
	Davisson: 	"I don't see any food at all..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Don't you want to come and play?" Paige seemed to still beleive it was living. « 1d20+8 = 20 + 8 = 28 » Handle animal
Snowbear22 has connected.
Davisson: (( even your nat 20 isn't good enough to get it to respond ))
	Damekki: 	"Picky little thing isn't it..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige pouts.
	Sarith: 	"Hold on. I got an idea."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Dexterity check to chase it to the edge. « 1d20+2 = 18 + 2 = 20 »
	Sarith: 	"Sorr Litsne, I 'll get you more food in a second."
* Sarith pulls out some bird food and lays it near the rug in a trail towards the table
	Sarith: 	"Perhaps someone has some other food as well to lure it?"
	Grale: 	"Ohoho. I admit, I enjoy your creativity, young one."
	Forz: 	"I...have to wonder who made the assumption that it's an animal? Dropping an animal would be...uncalled for. But I'm ABOUT TO DO IT if this dog doesn't let go of me!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I did! I assumed it was an animal!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige raised her hand
	Grale: 	"Sadly, that's not the point of this little trial. Just check it yourself."
	Sarith: 	"Hm..."
	Forz: 	"Hm...I wonder if I could pick it up from afar. ...I didn't prepare Mage Hand today. Careless..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Hm! Four of us, one from each dirrection, cage it and lead it out! If it's a trial, it's a trial of teamwork, ne?"
	Sarith: 	"Can I just shoot it?"
	Mistral: 	"Wouldn't it just stay in place, assuming it's alive anyway?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Then we push it, or leave an exit toward the edge."
* Sarith scoops up the bird food and gives some to Litsne before putting it away.
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige takes possition with two hands making a cup on one side of the lump, a distance away. "C'mon, someone else to join on either side of me."
	Forz: 	"I WOULD, but this mutt is heavier than he looks."
	Davisson: 	"Grr, be that way then"
	Sarith: 	"Doyle, do you have some tongs?"
	Damekki: 	"Fine! Let's all be super careful about this!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige stays still, waiting for others to join still.
	Doyle: 	"...I'm no chef. I have a few arrows, that's about it."
	Sarith: 	"Just hand me whatever is used to put the firewood into the fireplace there, please."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige looks at Damekki and Jaden, "Do you want to help?
	Mistral: 	"It's not responding to me, I know that much... Sarith, did you want to try?"
	Jaden: 	"Well just have to attack this from all sides..."
	Sarith: 	"Yeah, just one second."
	Doyle: 	"...okay, but it's not exactly a precision tool."
	Sarith: 	"Doesn't matter."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige crosses her arms and pouts.
Mistral: (( SHE'S JUST GONNA SMASH IT ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	"I know I can't turn invisible."
	Vidarr: 	"Man, ya guys sure takea while to pick stuff up."
	Sarith: 	"Paige, we are helping, don't you worry. I just have an idea."
	Grale: 	Grale continues to giggle to herself. "You don't know the half of it"
* Sarith grabs the fireplace tool or whatever from Doyle and puts it into the fire briefly to warm it up.
Doyle: (( It's basically a spade - what's used to shovel firewood in and ashes out ))
	Sarith: 	"Alright, move out of the way. This will force it out."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"..."
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige leaves the room.
	Paige Emberfly: 	When she reaches the hall she huffs and slumps agains the wall.
* Sarith grabs the spade and runs over to the spot of the corner and puts the spade to it.
Grale: (( the crease doesn't seem to move this time. You just may force it out yet ))
* Sarith uses the spade to push it out.
	Vidarr: 	"Hey, I thought it was a good idea! Too many people down here to get to it, though! I'd knock someone over with my fastness, nahahaha!"
Grale: (( borururu~! The marble appears to roll off on its lonesome, at long last. ))
	Grale: 	"Ahohoho! Congrats, you finally did it!" Grale clasps her hands together, as if marvelously impressed by the act.
	Sarith: 	"Um, fairy girl, you can come back now."
Grale: (( the marble is unremarkable and clear, with a cloudy substance floating in the middle ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige comes back into the room but sits off to the side.
	Grale: 	"Good job everyone! Do you know what's in that marble now?"
	Sarith: 	"Hm... I'm sorry we didn't listen to what you said. Would petting Litsne make you feel a bit better?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige starts to pet Litsne.
	Jaden: 	"Dang, that took forever..."
	Sarith: 	"Hm... could it be some powder?"
	Grale: 	"Hmmhoho...It's a secret~! But perhaps you'll find it out later after the 2nd trial..."
	Mistral: 	"An enchantment?"
* Litsne ruffles its feathers a bit as it is being pet.
	Damekki: 	"There's even more to this?"
	Grale: 	"Just take the marble and stand right down here." Grale points her fingers to the lower level where the carpet is.
* Sarith picks up the marble and goes to the carpet.
	Mistral: 	"And you're DEFINITELY not going to make this carpet come to life and send us away, right?"
* Litsne Litsne holds onto the railing.
	Grale: 	"Don't worry. There's a good reason why we keep that carpet in particular nailed to the floor."
	Johan: 	"Well, that was certainly unexpected. And, no, no carpets will come to life, unfortunately."
	Grale: 	"After all, we don't want it falling down or anything. Time for the 2nd trial, if you're up for it, Ohohoho~." Grale snaps her fingers, signaling something.
Mistral: (( OH SHIT ANTIGRAV CHAMBER ))
Grale: (( ever had those times where suddenly you can snap like a motherfucker ))
Grale: (( because that's happening to me right now, and it feels damn good ))
Sarith: (( lol ))
Mistral: (( snappin' like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqoJAyt4NQ4 ))
Mistral: (( and I have no idea what the snapping could signal and am confused and worried ))
	Doyle: 	"FINALLY! I swear, I thought I'd never get to do this." Doyle looks at the fireplace, and reaches inside, pushing in a brick. "You know, it feels...cathartic, to do this to someone else." And, after hours of deliberation, the trap finally activates, with the floor falling out from under you. Well, except Paige, since she can fly, but she's not over that section of the floor anyways.
Doyle: (( And brb again, if this is another wasp I'm going to strangle him ))
Sarith: (( reflex save? ))
Mistral: (( DAMN IT (XD) ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige blinked as she saw the trap spring. "Wha!" Jolted out of her meloncholy she sprung down to try and grab the nearest hand, that of the dragon girl Damekki, being pulled down with her in the process.
	Mistral: 	"YOU LIIIIIIIiiiiieeeeed"
	Jaden: 	Jaden looks down before he falls, temporarily suspended in the air by the power of cartoon logic. "Man, you guys just straight up -suck- don't you?"
Sarith: (( i suppose we don't get a chance to reflex save this? ))
	Davisson: 	"IF I GO DOWN I'M TAKING YOU WITH ME" Davis chomps on Forz' leg, dragging him down as well
Mistral: (( it's a plot trap, I'd just go with it ))
Mistral: (( probably beneficial ))
Sarith: (( eh. yeah ))
Davisson: (( I don't think you do anyway ))
* Sarith falls down
Mistral: (( 'sides, you're pretty far against the wall. ))
* Litsne gets off the railing and flies down to Sarith
	Grale: 	"Ohoho. Bye bye, and stay safe down there~!"
	Forz: 	*and back, at least it wasn't a bug* "Stupid doooooooog!"
	Forz: 	BUT, I'd say we should probably end ith ere, given it's one, unless everyone wants to go on
Snowbear22: (( I can go on for a bit more ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	(( I'm good, it'd be nice to finish up this chapter, if that's plausable))
Forz: (( Could be. ))
Davisson: (( I'll warn you ahead of time and say it's somewhat unlikely ))
Davisson: (( but we could try anyway ))
Mistral: (( well, technically it's midnight. ))
Mistral: (( or wait ))
Mistral: (( right, you already accounted for that. ))
Mistral: (( ne'er mind ))
Forz: (( See, my computer is hooked up to this thing called a cable company ))
Forz: (( and also has a built-in clock itself ))
Snowbear22: 	lol
Forz: (( meaning it auto-corrects the time ))
	Mistral: 	SO yeah. That, uh, probably didn't go as smoothly as hoped.
Forz: (( But, yeah - if we're going on, one last map. ))
	Forz: 	Not so much no.
	Davisson: 	So wait, are we going on, or...
Snowbear22: (( yes ))
	Davisson: 	because it's only 1 AM my time
Mistral: (( Guess we are. ))
Mistral: (( Rob? ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	((Mmhm!))
Mistral: (( I AM going to take my contacts out and hop into bed, but I'll be fine to keep trucking. ))
Mistral: (( bam, bring it on ))
	Haze: 	It's brought
Tokens dropped onto map 'Johan-Selani Underground' by player Agi (Player)
Mistral: (( aw hell, it's this place ))
Vidarr: (( Aw hell, it's this place ))
Davisson: (( aw place, it's this hell ))
Vidarr: (( Also fitting. ))
	Vidarr: 	"THIS AIN'T HEROIC AT ALLLLLL"
	Mistral: 	Mistral pats off all the dust from the landing. "I don't even know why I ASKED."
	Damekki: 	"Atatataaa..." Damekki rubs her back as she gets up off the dusty ground. "What's this place supposed to be?"
Paige Emberfly: 	Paige fluttered down and stayed a foot off the ground.
	Sarith: 	"You know, I should have expected it this time..."
Mistral: (( no damage from the fall, I'm going to hope/assume ))
	Jaden: 	"Ey, nobody said the road to greatness was easy..."
Vidarr: (( Naw, nothing like that, you didn't fall too quickly. ))
Vidarr: (( Unless you WANT to roll for fall damage...? That can be arranged. I'll begin the calculations? ))
Mistral: (( nonono ))
Mistral: (( nono. ))
Sarith: (( hello? ))
* Paige Emberfly looks around the new chamber. "..where do we go from here?"
	Jaden: 	"After all, as long as we got ourselves..." Jaden prestidigitates another, sligtly better looking flower from his sleeve. "We got hope." He gives the fairy the flower as she floats down.
Paige Emberfly: 	"My other one disappeared! Thanks!"
Mistral: (( what a charmer ))
	Forz: 	"Nng...WHY? What did I do to you to deserve that? Stupid mutt! ...I'm going. Getting out of this place. But...which way..."
	Damekki: 	"Seriously. Stop that."
Mistral: (( anything we should know about this place that isn't IMMEDIATELY obvious to us just by looking at the map? ))
	Davisson: 	"There seems to be multiple paths from here..."
	Mistral: 	« 1d20+4 = 2 + 4 = 6 » *general percep/survival, looking for signs which way to go mostly*
	Mistral: 	*acourse*
	Sarith: 	Perception check: « 1d20+8 = 19 + 8 = 27 »
	Mistral: 	*you go, girl*
Forz: (( The oil in the dragons' mouths, and in thoose pots everyone is laying on, is rather warm and glowy. To the north, you can see a bit of a cave, and a hint of greenery. South is a curtain, and you can't see beyond it. To the east and west, stairs. There's no light down there, unfortunately. Anyone bring torches? ))
Sarith: (( nope ))
Mistral: (( Didn't think we'd need 'em as kids ))
Mistral: (( I DO have Light prepared thuogh. ))
	Mistral: 	Light
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/l/light
Forz: (( Hell would you need a torch for, you have Light ))
Mistral: (( exactly ))
Mistral: (( Object touched, eh ))
* Sarith pulls out the spade.
	Jaden: 	"Alright, if we're gonna go through a trial, why not trial ourselves, eh?"
Sarith: (( I think I still ahve it? ))
Vidarr: (( I unno. Not like there's a shortage of objects, though ))
Vidarr: (( Guess you could have, you damned dirty thief ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige lifts a rock, "Does anyone have a light spell to cast on this?"
Sarith: (( lol ))
Vidarr: (( Firespades are sacred objects, despite their being no gods ))
Vidarr: (( er, there, but their is also technically correct I guess ))
	Mistral: 	"Sure! Let me see that."
	Sarith: 	"Why not use it on this spade?
	Forz: 	"If you insist. I suppose this was more handy than Mage Hand after all."
	Sarith: 	"Whatever that is."
	Jaden: 	"If we really have to go through all these paths, let's split up to cover more ground. Whichever group makes it to...wherever we're supposed to make it first, wins, how about it?"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Rocks you can throw ahead without worry about damaging it. But anything works!"
	Mistral: 	"Tell you what - have one each. It's not like it's a tough spell or anything."
Mistral: (( gotta love cantrips. ))
	Vidarr: 	"I don't need no stinkin' magic! Dark's no problem for us."
* Mistral infuses the rock and the spade with light.
	Paige Emberfly: 	Paige holds the stone in her buckler hand, allowing 30 feet of light to illuminate around that hand
Mistral: (( 20, it seems, for Pathfinder ))
Mistral: (( either way. ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	(( Low light vision, so twice for page! ))
	Mistral: 	"Don't worry about me - I can see just fine."
	Mistral: 	*Darkvision, whoo*
	Sarith: 	"Hm..."
	Forz: 	"Unfortunately, -I- can't see in the dark, Vidarr. Fortunately, I can see in the light." *casts it on my, uh, flint and steel*
	Damekki: 	"I can see plenty fine in this darkness. Not sure about the other bozos here."
	Mistral: 	"What's this about a competition, though?"
	Jaden: 	"Ahahaha, it's simple. We split up into groups of three and each tackle one of the paths."
	Vidarr: 	"Nahahaha, suit yourself."
	Forz: 	"Three isn't four. Do we ignore the last pathway?"
Mistral: (( *BLOWS IT UP* What last hallway (D) ))
	Jaden: 	"Yo, who needs the last pathway? Leave it a wildcard or something."
	Sarith: 	"Well we could pair up and go...."
	Vidarr: 	"Hey, hey, whatever is fine by me!"
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Smaller than 3 could be dangerous. Four in two directions, then the next two, or three in three directions would be the best strategies we have."
	Forz: 	"I'd say people who can see in the dark should go with each other."
	Forz: 	"Only two people here can provide light, yes?"
	Jaden: 	"Sounds too dangerous. It'd be nice to have a balance here and there."
	Forz: 	"It's more dangerous to have people stumbling around without being able to see."
	Mistral: 	"Me and you, no one else is holding out on us? You, with the headband, you had magic. Can you make any light?"
Mistral: (( and we will never exchange names. ))
Mistral: (( Ever. ))
	Vidarr: 	*hey, my name's been said*
	Vidarr: 	*Though I have no idea if anyone else's has been*
Vidarr: (( but it's a tradition - if you know the name of your party members before the fifth session, something's gone horribly wrong ))
	Sarith: 	"I don't think I caught really anyone's name..."
Sarith: (( and yes I do remember him being called out ))
	Paige Emberfly: 	"My name is Paige, Paige Emberfly."
	Sarith: 	"Sarith Ilo is what I go by."
Mistral: (( Oh god people have last names ))
Mistral: (( nooo ))
	Vidarr: 	"Vidarr! My last name is somethin' stupid. Royce, or Rolls, or Royle, or something. Nobody use it!"
Mistral: (( welp let me go generate some dwarven name. ))
	Jaden: 	"Can I make light? How would I survive this far if I couldn't, huh? Sides, name's Jaden. Don't forget it. I sorta forgot my last name."
	Forz: 	"Call me Forz."
	Damekki: 	"Don't pay too much attention to this idiot here. My name is *nigh-unpronouncable draconic name*, but most people call me Damekki for short."
	Mistral: 	"Mistral. I have a few last names, none of them should matter for now."
	Vidarr: 	*hah, Draconic language, fuck yeah*
	Davisson: 	"Hrph. Davisson. That's the name I use with you silly two-legs."
	Paige Emberfly: 	"Nice to meet you Davisson no-wings!"
	Forz: 	"At least we can reach the cookie jar on our two legs. Now, are we going to stand here, or go?"
Forz: (( Think that's it, since snow's falling asleep ))
	Jaden: 	"Let's remember not to forget any of the names here before we split up. Something tells me this is gonna be the turning point!"
Sarith: (( we can pick up from here ))
Jaden: (( yeah, we definitely can ))
Mistral: (( Three people that can make Light, three that can see in the dark ))
Mistral: (( more than half the people here are totally fine on their own. ))
Forz: (( I guess if there's three groups, one of each in each group would make the most sense ))
Forz: (( Though uh, Paige only has low-light ))
Forz: (( not Darkvision ))
Mistral: (( Don't Damekki and Vidarr have Darkvision? ))
Mistral: (( and me too, of course ))
Forz: (( They do, yea--oh, you do. ))
Mistral: (( I do. ))
Forz: (( Right one of the people with darkvision also has Light ))
Forz: (( For some reason. ))
Forz: (( Anyhow,save your tokens and let me export the campaign ))
Mistral: (( I live to serve ))
Sarith: (( i already saved my tokens ))
