[01:38] <Skeleton> I sleep in my little house devoid of things to rob (let's say the "at some point" I put the note on the door is when I leave it)
[01:38] <~flibbyjibbits> in the middle of the night the guy in the tower who i already forgot the name of again turns into the darklord and slaughters you all
[01:38] <~flibbyjibbits> or so pikkup dreamt
[01:38] <Moonside> Telmar.
[01:39] <~flibbyjibbits> i was gonna say thalmor but thought that cant be right
[01:39] <Skeleton> ELVISH FILTH CONTAMINATES YOU ALLLLL
[01:39] <Moonside> I remember because it sounds like the name of those human people in Chronicles of Narnia.
[01:40] <Deathfish64> In my dream I quip that "darklord" is totally overdone
[01:40] <Skeleton> You know, I'm never good at making up names that sound like believable names even though they don't fit any present human culture
[01:40] <CommodoreJim> Okay fish, how about the Miasma King
[01:40] <Moonside> I know that feel.
[01:40] <Deathfish64> um
[01:40] <Skeleton> And my fingers smell like tequila...
[01:41] <Eltrotraw> does he turn into night stalker
[01:41] <Deathfish64> No, I don't think that' overdone
[01:41] <Gilgamesh> does he live in miasma manor
[01:41] <Skeleton> I drink some of whatever I have in my house before sleep :J
[01:41] <CommodoreJim> So, morning, then?
[01:41] <~flibbyjibbits> **Tombs also receives a dream of a skeleton wearing clothes running through the forest, people screaming and running from MR BONES
[01:41] <CommodoreJim> (It's toilet water)
[01:41] <Skeleton> >:U
[01:41] <Gilgamesh> it's his dentist again
[01:42] <Moonside> What.
[01:42] <Skeleton> Poor poor Freddie. Maybe this adventure will make him rich, rich Freddie!
[01:42] <CommodoreJim> I dream of Genie with the light brown hair. (Not really)
[01:42] <~flibbyjibbits> anyways
[01:42] <Eltrotraw> Tombs doesn't get a dream of CROOKED DESTINY TAUNTING HIM?
[01:42] <Moonside> I dream of dreams.
[01:42] <~flibbyjibbits> in the morning you were told to assemble at the courtyard
[01:43] <Moonside> I wake up, feeling rather good, and go to the courtyard.
[01:43] <Eltrotraw> okay
[01:43] <Moonside> On the way there, I stretch a bit to test my new armor, and it seems to be really good; lighter than the old one, while still just as resistant.
[01:44] <~flibbyjibbits> Theres a couple of the gaurds there, and Drom's superior there, wanting to say goodbye. Telmar is there with a leather folder containing several letters, a map of where you're headed, and instructions on who to give the letters to
[01:44] <Skeleton> I fall out of bed and drag myself over there
[01:44] <Moonside> Who'll take these?
[01:45] <Skeleton> "I'm the worst navigator"
[01:45] <~flibbyjibbits> freddie paints a pretty pahtetic picture of himself
[01:45] <Moonside> Drommie can do it.
[01:45] <Skeleton> Huh? I'm the worst painter too?
[01:46] <~flibbyjibbits> i just mean the little things point towards him not being that well off in general
[01:46] <CommodoreJim> I ride into the courtyard, my pristine new scale mail is almost white, with a dark blue tabbard draped over. I'm wearing a new bucket helm of metal matching my mail. I'm riding a -fantastic- black and white horse, wearing padded armor matching the blue of my tabbard. "Good morning, everyone."
[01:46] <Skeleton> No aptitude for anything. For Freddie this is a coming of age story!
[01:47] <CommodoreJim> (I look like the biggest tool because I'm writing stupid descriptions dammit)
[01:47] <Moonside> "Oh... Drominus? Wow, you look like a completely different person like that."
[01:47] <Skeleton> "Nice new face, Drom! I mean, helmet."
[01:48] <~flibbyjibbits> a coming of age story in which he is older than pretty much the entire party already
[01:48] <Eltrotraw> Tombs just still has his gun fastened on his back, a small cloak on his back and the rest of his clothing on him
[01:48] <~flibbyjibbits> actually yes, hes twice the age of the second oldest party member
[01:48] <Moonside> And don't worry Jim, I put those in the character sheet.
[01:48] <CommodoreJim> I chuckle. "Well, I'll take that all as a compliment...interesting armor, Lady Charlotte. Not seen anything quite like it."
[01:48] <Skeleton> Not in elf years. He's practically an elf baby
[01:48] <~flibbyjibbits> i guess so yes
[01:49] <Skeleton> He's got like ten human lives ahead of him!
[01:49] <Skeleton> (more like maybe one and a half)
[01:49] <Gilgamesh> yeah normally I would be older but
[01:49] <Eltrotraw> But he's scowling at usual, he looks like doesn't want to be going along on the journey, or does he? His immeasurable amount of scowls are hard to read
[01:49] <Moonside> "Ah yes, this... it's from the far east, it seems. I had read something about it before."
[01:49] <Gilgamesh> apparently oracle dwarves are young generally
[01:49] <Gilgamesh> who knew??
[01:49] <CommodoreJim> Also I've got HEAVY WOODEN SHIELD strapped to my back and my axe and lance are both strapped to the saddle, I suppose.
[01:49] <Eltrotraw> that's pretty much it for tombs
[01:49] <~flibbyjibbits> "These letters will grant you acess to most places you need to go, I've sent a sending spell to the man in charge of the border gate, he'll let you through as a political favor. I have to send them some 'humanitarian aid', but its worth it."
[01:51] <Skeleton> Wait is this Telmar
[01:51] <Skeleton> How come he isn't murdering me
[01:51] <CommodoreJim> I guess I take the leather folder. "Yessir. Understood."
[01:51] <~flibbyjibbits> he does not seem to acknowledge freddies existance
[01:52] <Moonside> What an asshole.
[01:52] <CommodoreJim> Dark Drommy Secrets: I wanna punch this guy
[01:52] <Skeleton> It's okay. You know how OLD PEOPLE are...
[01:52] <Skeleton> I forgive him
[01:52] <Skeleton> Or just plain don't notice
[01:53] <Moonside> Sense Motive roll?
[01:53] <Moonside> Or Perception, dunno.
[01:53] <~flibbyjibbits> "If you stick to the main roads you should be fine, theres not much between here and Sparona, just some farms  and a few thickets of trees."
[01:53] <Eltrotraw> sure, i'll sense motive too(+0)
[01:53] <Moonside> Flib, do you have a map of the land?
[01:53] <~flibbyjibbits> [whatever roll {18}: he simply is acting as though freddie were not present
[01:53] <~flibbyjibbits> i do not yet
[01:54] <~flibbyjibbits> since up until earlier today I hadn't finalized what the place looked like
[01:54] <CommodoreJim> Oh I'll also sense motive-- oh
[01:54] <Moonside> I see.
[01:54] <Moonside> Is Freddie taking the magic ball?
[01:55] <Skeleton> I still have it
[01:55] <CommodoreJim> Realization: Drom's secret will be blown when we stop to eat
[01:55] <Skeleton> "No, I like all my beefsteaks pureed"
[01:55] <Skeleton> "Mmmmmmm.... meat... shakes... blrrghlh I love it"
[01:57] <~flibbyjibbits> "I can't think of anything left I have to say, oh but wait, the king wants to wish you luck on your trip!" he says, pointing to a balcony, where the illusory king stands and waves at the party
[01:57] <CommodoreJim> Is Pik here or did he die on his way here or see an interesting bug
[01:57] <Skeleton> "Whoa!!! He's alive!?!"
[01:57] <Deathfish64> Oh
[01:57] <CommodoreJim> I grit my teeth as I salute the fake king. Just seeing him makes me remember how I couldn't save the actual thing
[01:57] <Deathfish64> um
[01:57] <Deathfish64> I'm there
[01:57] <Skeleton> "Holy crap guys"
[01:58] <Moonside> I wave back at the fake king. "I don't think you'll have any problems with that."
[01:58] <CommodoreJim> "I'll explain later, Freddie."
[01:58] <Eltrotraw> Tombs sends a slight glance at the illusionary king before turning to get ready to leave
[01:58] <Skeleton> ":(  ("
[01:59] <Deathfish64> I wave cheerfully
[01:59] <~flibbyjibbits> so do you depart, then?
[01:59] <Moonside> Sure.
[01:59] <Deathfish64> sure
[01:59] <Deathfish64> But first I have to get Rapidash
[01:59] <Gilgamesh> The false king reminds Urist of his purpose, and the CRIMINAL SCUM that must be apprehended. "Goodbye, sir." he says to the High Mage
[01:59] <Moonside> Random encounters ho!
[01:59] <CommodoreJim> "Melange, we ride!" I say and my horse begins to trot off.
[02:00] <~flibbyjibbits> oh one last thing; the case also contains a set of signet rings with a variation of Rakor's symbol on it
[02:00] <Skeleton> Melange was a horse that was famous!
[02:00] <CommodoreJim> Melange is the greatest horse there is.
[02:00] <Deathfish64> "Oh boy rings!"
[02:00] <Moonside> What do these do?
[02:00] <~flibbyjibbits> theyre just signet rings
[02:00] <CommodoreJim> I hand out the rings. "Looks like we're some sort of actual group now."
[02:00] <~flibbyjibbits> they look nice and official
[02:00] <CommodoreJim> (Lotte: APRAISAL CHECK)
[02:00] <Moonside> Hmm.
[02:00] <Moonside> Yeah, that.
[02:00] <Skeleton> "Speaking of which, can I say something...?"
[02:01] <Gilgamesh> Are they gold?
[02:01] <Moonside> Dammit, bgh.
[02:01] <Deathfish64> They're just Best Friends Forever rings guys
[02:01] <~flibbyjibbits> [They're made out of a probably iron-ish alloy, treated with some alchemy to be more difficult to break of modify]
[02:01] <Moonside> "What is it, Freddie?"
[02:01] <CommodoreJim> "Yes, Freddie?"
[02:01] <Gilgamesh> Urist seems a bit disappointed at the cheap quality of the metal, but wears it nonetheless
[02:02] <CommodoreJim> How do I wear a ring with gauntlets on
[02:02] <~flibbyjibbits> you dont have to wear it
[02:02] <Skeleton> "I'm glad you guys, you know, included me in this. I thought for sure I was just gonna be left hanging after the tower thing and never get called back about anything"
[02:02] <Gilgamesh> on your penis
[02:02] <Moonside> I put the ring in my pocket.
[02:03] <~flibbyjibbits> its notgold, bgh
[02:03] <Moonside> Since, well, I don't really like to use jewelry.
[02:03] <Gilgamesh> and he's not a dwarf
[02:03] <CommodoreJim> I keep the ring in a bag for now. Maybe latter I'll put it on a chain and wear it as a necklace.
[02:03] <Gilgamesh> human:iron/steel::dwarf:gold
[02:04] <Skeleton> Gold is weak
[02:04] <Skeleton> Pure gold, anyway
[02:04] <Gilgamesh> it's also
[02:04] <Gilgamesh> shiny
[02:04] <Gilgamesh> and.... soft............
[02:04] <~flibbyjibbits> Nothing notable occurs on the first day of travel; the festival is still going on, though it is begining to wind down a bit.  One of the street musicians seems to be making fun of your group in a song he made up just then, running along side you for a minute or two
[02:04] <Skeleton> Gold would be good if you're the dominant guy in an S/M relationship!
[02:04] <Deathfish64> I where the ring on my ring hand
[02:04] <~flibbyjibbits> gold is delicious
[02:05] <Deathfish64> gold is heavy
[02:05] <CommodoreJim> "Well, Freddie, we couldn't leave you behind. Somebody has to keep an eye on you." I pause. "That was a joke, it's good to have you."
[02:05] <Moonside> I kick the street musician.
[02:05] <~flibbyjibbits> hey
[02:05] <CommodoreJim> I keep forgetting people can't really tell if I'm joking or not due to my helmet.
[02:05] <Skeleton> "Thank you, and hahahaaha, respectively."
[02:05] <~flibbyjibbits> guess what attack roll just happened
[02:05] <CommodoreJim> Did she crit kick
[02:05] <~flibbyjibbits> no
[02:05] <Deathfish64> "It's okay Freddie, you're part of the team!"
[02:05] <Moonside> Then it's a 1.
[02:05] <~flibbyjibbits> yes
[02:06] <Moonside> Fuck.
[02:06] <Gilgamesh> pfff
[02:06] <Deathfish64> did the street musician crit counter
[02:06] <CommodoreJim> Now Lotte looks like a huge tool
[02:06] <Gilgamesh> kick musician, fall off horse
[02:06] <Skeleton> In the mud
[02:06] <~flibbyjibbits> he ducks effortlessly and begins making fun of that in song
[02:06] <~flibbyjibbits> critical feeling hurt
[02:06] <Moonside> I supress the urge to kill him.
[02:06] <Deathfish64> I laugh at the song
[02:06] <Moonside> Somehow.
[02:06] <Gilgamesh> I attempt an intimidate check
[02:07] <CommodoreJim> "Ignore them. Bards are always like that. Thank goodness we're not traveling with any..."
[02:07] <~flibbyjibbits> [7] nope
[02:07] <Gilgamesh> :<
[02:07] <CommodoreJim> I attempt an intimidate check
[02:07] <Gilgamesh> damnit now I look like a tool too
[02:07] <CommodoreJim> (I'm an Orc I get a bonus)
[02:07] <~flibbyjibbits> [17] he stops following
[02:07] <Moonside> Yay!
[02:07] <Skeleton> "I wanted to play music once but I didn't want to learn to do it. So it didn't work out"
[02:07] <Moonside> "Heh... thanks, Drommy."
[02:07] <Deathfish64> "Aww, he was pretty good."
[02:08] <CommodoreJim> "Not a problem, Lady Charlotte. Besides, I can't have you trying to kick everything. Chivalry won't allow it."
[02:08] <CommodoreJim> "...that was also a joke."
[02:08] <Gilgamesh> (I get a +3 for charisma)
[02:08] <Gilgamesh> (why charisma helps intimidate I'll never know)
[02:08] <Moonside> [sarcasm] "...hah."
[02:08] <~flibbyjibbits> the countryside is pretty nice, fairly flat in this region, primarily farms that feed the big city and the army
[02:08] <Deathfish64> (pfft, +3.  your charisma needs work)
[02:08] <~flibbyjibbits> you dont encounter anything of note of the first day, judging by the progress it will be three more days to Sparona
[02:09] <Skeleton> (I only have +2 :<)
[02:09] <Moonside> Remove one ration?
[02:09] <~flibbyjibbits> yes
[02:09] <Skeleton> I got fire! I should be cookin
[02:09] <CommodoreJim> Fuck how do I eat
[02:10] <~flibbyjibbits> there doesnt seem to be a town in sight, though you can faintly see the tops of the lights of the city behind you
[02:10] <~flibbyjibbits> als fireworks behind you
[02:10] <Skeleton> You open your mouth, put the food inside
[02:10] * CommodoreJim slams the food into his helmet
[02:10] <CommodoreJim> ??????
[02:10] <Moonside> "how do I mine for fish???"
[02:11] <Deathfish64> You can eat away from everyone else
[02:11] <Gilgamesh> (dwarves have a racial deficiency in cha :<)
[02:11] <~flibbyjibbits> say you want to have some alone time with your horse and make camp a short distance away, though its pretty much a completely open field with a paved road in the middle
[02:11] <Moonside> I eat the food. It doesn't taste really good, but it's edible.
[02:12] <Eltrotraw> alone time with horse, huh
[02:12] <Moonside> "some time alone with your horse"
[02:12] <Eltrotraw> do we find any foods
[02:12] <Deathfish64> I eat the ration [10]
[02:12] <Eltrotraw> or are we forced to eat our rations
[02:12] <~flibbyjibbits> unless you want to steal from the farm field
[02:12] <Deathfish64> We don't have any foodfindy classes
[02:12] <Skeleton> I eat Rapidash
[02:12] <Deathfish64> Noooo
[02:12] <Skeleton> Nomf
[02:12] <Moonside> No one has Survival?
[02:12] <Gilgamesh> no stealing
[02:13] <Gilgamesh> that's ILLEGAL
[02:13] <~flibbyjibbits> though thatd be pretty tough considering its a grain field to the left and the one on the other side hasnt grown to fruition yet
[02:13] <Skeleton> I'm not lawful!
[02:13] <CommodoreJim> I make my camp a bit of a distance away, without really offering an explaination. Mm, crappy rations.
[02:13] <Gilgamesh> armok help me if you steal from that field I will stick an axe through your shrimpy magus body
[02:13] <Moonside> I start to think that Drommy's a little weird for wanting to spend his dinner with his horse.
[02:14] <CommodoreJim> My horse stands between me and the other camp, further hindering the view
[02:14] <Skeleton> Do we have fire already or should I cast BURNING HANDS at some wood
[02:14] <~flibbyjibbits> dont you have that level 0 spell that starts a fire
[02:14] <Moonside> Spark.
[02:14] <Gilgamesh> I do
[02:14] <Gilgamesh> spark
[02:14] <CommodoreJim> Rebuttal: Poison tits
[02:14] <~flibbyjibbits> like, safely
[02:14] <Skeleton> Oh right
[02:14] <Skeleton> But BURNING HANDS is cooler
[02:14] <~flibbyjibbits> burning hands is harzadous since it hits in a cone
[02:14] <Deathfish64> I warn Drominusm "Don't go alone at night, or the bogeymen will get you."
[02:14] <Moonside> "Bogeymen?"
[02:15] <Skeleton> "Is that a real monster"
[02:15] <Gilgamesh> "Aye. They've been known to kill the most proficient of warriors."
[02:15] <Skeleton> "I never believed my parents when they told me it was and that it lived in my bedroom"
[02:15] <Gilgamesh> "All they need to do is find you at night, alone..."
[02:15] <Eltrotraw> Tombs cocks his blunderbuss. "Bogeymen... I'll give 'em an introduction..."
[02:15] <Moonside> Since I have almost every knowledge skill now, I do a check to know if that's true.
[02:15] <Deathfish64> 'cocks'
[02:15] <Gilgamesh> "Oh, they don't live in bedrooms. Just the outdoors."
[02:15] <Eltrotraw> I'll eat a ration then
[02:15] <Skeleton> "Oh, good."
[02:16] <Skeleton> "Then my parents lied to me!
[02:16] <Skeleton> "
[02:16] <~flibbyjibbits> [knowledge check: you think you might have remembered reading that bogeymen were driven out of Rakor as the first act of the original king]
[02:16] <Moonside> Hmm.
[02:16] <Gilgamesh> how the fuck did they manage that
[02:16] <~flibbyjibbits> he was a REALLY good axeman
[02:16] <CommodoreJim> "The only thing I'm worried about is dwarven knights." I grumble back. I quickly finished eating and have replaced my helmet.
[02:16] <Deathfish64> If you kill enough of them then they leave for a while
[02:16] <Gilgamesh> good enough to kill an infinite spawm
[02:16] <Skeleton> They had Drom, duh-doy
[02:16] <Gilgamesh> oh, they're not infinite? huh
[02:16] <~flibbyjibbits> also his best friend was the god of stone and such
[02:16] <CommodoreJim> Yeah, Drom piledrived them
[02:16] <Deathfish64> They are infinite, but they stop if you kill enough of them
[02:17] <CommodoreJim> Piledrove?
[02:17] <~flibbyjibbits> he just killed all the ones in the  kingdom, which at the time inluded Nethu; he didn't touch Farim though
[02:17] <~flibbyjibbits> there may still be some there
[02:17] <Moonside> "Bogeymen, huh? I think I remember reading something about those."
[02:17] <Gilgamesh> good
[02:17] <Gilgamesh> leave 'em to the elves
[02:18] <~flibbyjibbits> anyways if no objections within 30 seconds moving to morning
[02:18] <Moonside> Sure.
[02:18] <Skeleton> Go go gadget sun
[02:18] <CommodoreJim> I slept with my helmet on.
[02:18] <Moonside> You'll wake up fatigued.
[02:18] <CommodoreJim> Fff.
[02:18] <~flibbyjibbits> It is a bit cloudy in the morning and Drominus may be fatigued for sleeping in his armor unless he has endurance feat i forget
[02:19] <~flibbyjibbits> unless it was just his helmet
[02:19] <~flibbyjibbits> then i dont know
[02:19] <Gilgamesh> he could always sleep with like
[02:19] <Skeleton> I have to tell my toad (who still isn't named) to stop croaking a couple times in the night
[02:19] <Gilgamesh> a burlap sack
[02:19] <Gilgamesh> that would count as light probably
[02:19] <Moonside> Then I think he's even weirder, and a little suspicious.
[02:19] <CommodoreJim> Wait I have a tent
[02:19] <~flibbyjibbits> oh then no problems at all
[02:19] <Skeleton> Pfff!!!!!
[02:19] <Moonside> And everyone sleeps outside.
[02:19] <CommodoreJim> So I just slept normally.
[02:19] <Skeleton> A real man sleeps with moonbeams beating down on him when he's camping
[02:20] <CommodoreJim> Are you gonna say that to my face
[02:20] <Skeleton> no way :U
[02:20] <CommodoreJim> *Say that to my helmet
[02:20] <Skeleton> I'm not THAT dumb
[02:20] <Moonside> It's morning. Drommy spends some time putting his tent away, and none of us help.
[02:20] <CommodoreJim> I probably coulda just eaten in my tent then
[02:20] <~flibbyjibbits> You pass a few other wagons headed the opposite direction during the day; about midafternoon the farms start to give way to wild feilds
[02:21] <Deathfish64> I have a tent too
[02:21] <CommodoreJim> Drommy needs no help! Drommy strong! Grrr!
[02:21] <Skeleton> Too used to the castle life to rough it a little, eh
[02:21] <~flibbyjibbits> wild feilds i guess meaning just "not farms" in this case
[02:21] <~flibbyjibbits> theres some trees but not too many about
[02:21] <Eltrotraw> Which means we can "borrow" some food from the fields then?
[02:21] <CommodoreJim> and then Tombs was killed by a dire rabbit
[02:21] <Moonside> Why does it feel like we're playing Oregon Trail?
[02:22] <Deathfish64> http://i.imgur.com/lIJE1.jpg
[02:22] <Gilgamesh> Fredde has died of dysentery!
[02:22] <CommodoreJim> Freddie has died of dysentary
* Retrieving #adventure modes...
[02:22] <Skeleton> Freddie has dysentery
[02:22] <CommodoreJim> ...
[02:22] <Skeleton> Freddie has measles
[02:22] <~flibbyjibbits> just before the sun is starting to set, you see something somewhat strange
[02:22] <Gilgamesh> oh WOW.
[02:22] <Skeleton> Freddie has the plague (???)
[02:22] <CommodoreJim> What is the strange thing
[02:22] <CommodoreJim> Did Freddie do something cool????????
[02:22] <Gilgamesh> it's mounds of diahrrea
[02:23] <Gilgamesh> dysentery, yknow
[02:23] <~flibbyjibbits> Standing in the middle of the path, mostly motionless, staring the opposite direction of you
[02:23] <Skeleton> The fact that there was no plague during that time but somehow Freddie has it!
[02:23] <CommodoreJim> ...
[02:23] <CommodoreJim> What is this
[02:23] <~flibbyjibbits> is an elf woman; she is not wearing very much other than a leather-y dress, with a quiver of arrows on her back
[02:23] <Moonside> Hmm.
[02:23] <Skeleton> Whoaa...
[02:23] <~flibbyjibbits> and a bag tied to her waist
[02:23] <CommodoreJim> ...Your sister, Freddie?
[02:23] <CommodoreJim> Cousin?
[02:23] <CommodoreJim> Fiance?
[02:24] <Skeleton> Wouldn't that be a shock
[02:24] <Moonside> "Drommy, go talk to her."
[02:24] <~flibbyjibbits> Trancelike, she turns to face the party, swaying unsteadily on her feat,
[02:24] <CommodoreJim> (I bet it's an arranged marriage)
[02:24] <Eltrotraw> on her feat, holy shit, she's skilled
[02:24] <Skeleton> Freddie's parents would make him marry a goblin or something
[02:25] <CommodoreJim> Would a sense motive check do anything here
[02:25] <Gilgamesh> drunk elf lady
[02:25] <Moonside> Everyone starts with a feat, Eltro.
[02:25] <Gilgamesh> it's your big chance, freddie
[02:25] <Eltrotraw> but ON HER FEAT MAN
[02:25] <CommodoreJim> Freddie levels up 20 times after having sex
[02:25] <Moonside> I guess I'll Sense Motive.
[02:25] <Skeleton> Haha
[02:25] <CommodoreJim> He also grows MOUNDS OF CHEST HAIR
[02:25] <~flibbyjibbits> shes about 30 feet from the closest person in the group
[02:25] <Gilgamesh> elves don't grow chest hair
[02:26] <CommodoreJim> THEY DO NOW
[02:26] <Moonside> Sex is magical.
[02:26] <Skeleton> Who is the closest person
[02:26] <~flibbyjibbits> [sense motive.... oh come on really? {1} you feel like she is very friendly]
[02:26] <Moonside> Drom, I assume.
[02:26] <Moonside> Dammit dice.
[02:26] <Gilgamesh> I'll sense motive as well
[02:26] <CommodoreJim> ...can I sense motive, then?
[02:26] <Eltrotraw> "Hold there, what's a lass like you doin' out here?" Tombs calls out through his SCOWLING
[02:26] <~flibbyjibbits> drom rolled a 2
[02:26] <CommodoreJim> Fuck
[02:26] <Moonside> Pffft.
[02:26] <Eltrotraw> TOMBS ROLLS TOO
[02:26] <~flibbyjibbits> urist another 1
[02:26] <Moonside> Holy shit.
[02:26] <CommodoreJim> FUCK
[02:26] <Gilgamesh> holy shit.
[02:26] <Skeleton> Me?
[02:26] <CommodoreJim> WE'RE GONNA BE MURDERED
[02:26] <Skeleton> Sense motive?
[02:26] <Deathfish64> I wave and say "Hi!"
[02:26] <~flibbyjibbits> freddie gets a 15
[02:26] <~flibbyjibbits> finally
[02:27] <Deathfish64> How about one of those DIPLOMACY checks?
[02:27] <Skeleton> Well.
[02:27] <Gilgamesh> for once
[02:27] <Gilgamesh> freddie is more perceptive
[02:27] <Gilgamesh> than anyone else
[02:27] <CommodoreJim> Let's say he's in-tune with Elves
[02:27] <Eltrotraw> omg what about tombs
[02:27] <Gilgamesh> yeah let's blame it on that
[02:27] <CommodoreJim> tombs rolls a 0
[02:27] <~flibbyjibbits> however he cant really get a reading of her- she seems to be either drunk, drugged out, or in a trance
[02:27] <Eltrotraw> :<
[02:27] <Skeleton> Maybe all elves are a special level of derp only we can understand
[02:27] <Moonside> Derp.
[02:27] <~flibbyjibbits> tombs gets a 17, same thing as freddie
[02:27] <Eltrotraw> So he curses under his breath. Maybe she'll say something, but he readies himself for an attack
[02:27] <Skeleton> "Excuse me! Are you lost?"
[02:28] <~flibbyjibbits> {You cant sense motive.... if she has none}
[02:28] <Deathfish64> Can we diplomacy?
[02:28] <~flibbyjibbits> do you approach her or just say that from a distance
[02:28] <CommodoreJim> I don't think Diplomacy would do much better
[02:28] <Skeleton> Either or. Like a mix of both
[02:28] <Skeleton> Take a few steps forward while shouting
[02:28] <~flibbyjibbits> ok whats yours and droms armor class now
[02:28] <Deathfish64> I want to abuse my PULCHRITUDE
[02:28] <Moonside> Shit.
[02:28] <Gilgamesh> uh oh
[02:28] <Gilgamesh> that can't be good
[02:28] <Skeleton> Oh boy
[02:29] <Gilgamesh> >wizard
[02:29] <Gilgamesh> >armor class
[02:29] <Gilgamesh> don't make me LAUGH
[02:29] <Skeleton> I got no armor mang
[02:29] <Moonside> 0 AC
[02:29] <CommodoreJim> My AC is 20, bitches
[02:29] <Skeleton> Armor hinders magic... doesn't it?
[02:29] <~flibbyjibbits> freddie got 11, 18 is written on drom but idunno if hed had his sheild equipped and if his armor changed
[02:29] <Gilgamesh> some does
[02:29] <Gilgamesh> (kilts don't!)
[02:29] <CommodoreJim> My armor changed to Scale Mail
[02:29] <Skeleton> 11 damage!?
[02:29] <Eltrotraw> arcane spell failure, yes
[02:29] <Deathfish64> 11 AC
[02:29] <Skeleton> oh
[02:30] <Skeleton> herp
[02:30] <CommodoreJim> Try refreshing my profile, Flib
[02:30] <Moonside> My AC is 16.
[02:30] <Eltrotraw> 11 damage is like, all of freddie's being
[02:30] <~flibbyjibbits> ok whats just your armor bonus, you dont get dex since you arent quite expecting this
[02:30] <Eltrotraw> Tombs would have expected it but he was smart :3
[02:30] <~flibbyjibbits> i still see 18
[02:30] <Moonside> inb4freddie dies
[02:30] <CommodoreJim> +5
[02:30] <~flibbyjibbits> mabe i have the wrong link
[02:30] <~flibbyjibbits> or did you not save it yet
[02:30] <CommodoreJim> http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=381991
[02:30] <CommodoreJim> I made a proper, Pathfinder one I think
[02:30] <Skeleton> I see 20
[02:30] <~flibbyjibbits> yeah i had the wrong link
[02:31] <Moonside> Oh, I'll have to update the links.
[02:31] <~flibbyjibbits> well doesnt matter both these rolls were 4s anyways
[02:31] <Skeleton> I take it she is drunkenly shooting us
[02:31] <~flibbyjibbits> before you can really realize it, shes reached one hand into the bag at her waist, the other into the quiver, and thrown an arrow at drom, and threw a silver coin at freddie
[02:31] <Eltrotraw> no she drunkenly explodes
[02:31] <Skeleton> !
[02:31] <Gilgamesh> pff
[02:32] <~flibbyjibbits> both miss by a longshot
[02:32] <Eltrotraw> so what the fuck is she
[02:32] <Skeleton> "Thanks!"
[02:32] <Eltrotraw> arthur
[02:32] <Gilgamesh> Silver!
[02:32] <Eltrotraw> THROWS AN ARROW?
[02:32] <~flibbyjibbits> hey man i told you dwarf fort was my random encounter generator
[02:32] <Deathfish64> Oh, I see where this is going
[02:32] <~flibbyjibbits> ok init rolls uh
[02:32] <Moonside> "...what." I unsheathe my rapier.
[02:32] <Skeleton> Do I actually get the coin, or what
[02:32] <~flibbyjibbits> freddie tombs [elf monk] lotte drom pikkup
[02:33] <Deathfish64> dammit
[02:33] <~flibbyjibbits> it landed on the ground near you
[02:33] <Moonside> Monk? Shit
[02:33] <Moonside> .
[02:33] <Gilgamesh> what about me
[02:33] <Skeleton> Dang. Dibssss
[02:33] <~flibbyjibbits> oh whoops
[02:33] <Skeleton> She clearly gave it to ME
[02:33] <~flibbyjibbits> thats a 3 so you last urist
[02:33] <CommodoreJim> "..." I draw my lance.
[02:33] <Gilgamesh> :<
[02:33] <Moonside> Man, Drom will mounted charge with a lance.
[02:33] <Deathfish64> "Oh my, a thrower!"  I draw my crossbow
[02:34] <Skeleton> I shoot
[02:34] <Gilgamesh> "Don't kill her too badly now, Drom"
[02:35] <Skeleton> With my light crossbow
[02:35] <~flibbyjibbits> whoot what
[02:35] <~flibbyjibbits> oh ok
[02:35] <Moonside> Wait, Tombs gets to go second?!
[02:35] <~flibbyjibbits> that is a miss
[02:35] <Deathfish64> Tombs gets to go?
[02:35] <Skeleton> balls
[02:35] <~flibbyjibbits> you are clearly distracted by the limited coverage of her clothing
[02:35] <~flibbyjibbits> didnt just roll a 7 nope
[02:36] <CommodoreJim> FREDDIE: CAN'T FIGHT BECAUSE HE'S STARIN' AT TITS
[02:36] <Skeleton> She's an 8!
[02:36] <Eltrotraw> uh
[02:36] <Eltrotraw> okay
[02:36] <Skeleton> What do you want me to say!
[02:36] <Eltrotraw> let's shoot her
[02:36] <Eltrotraw> shoot and ask questions later now
[02:36] <Eltrotraw> I assume rolling a 1 is a misfire
[02:37] <~flibbyjibbits> yeah but you rolled a 9
[02:37] <~flibbyjibbits> which still doesnt hit
[02:37] <Eltrotraw> I curse my aim
[02:37] <Moonside> "Wow, guys, you all suck."
[02:38] <Skeleton> "We knew I did"
[02:38] <Deathfish64> ("Such big, big, items those Phantom Dancers"
[02:38] <Deathfish64> )
[02:38] <~flibbyjibbits> she throws an arrow at tombs for 6 damage and a coin at pikkup for 4 damage
[02:38] <Gilgamesh> "How hard is it to hit a drunken elf?"
[02:38] <Eltrotraw> "Stupid gun"
[02:38] <~flibbyjibbits> spinning and stumbling as she does this
[02:38] <Moonside> She might be a master of the drunken fist.
[02:38] <Eltrotraw> why is she acting like arthur
[02:39] <~flibbyjibbits> freddie tombs [elf monk] lotte drom pikkup urist init order to remind myself
[02:39] <Skeleton> How is your speed!
[02:39] <Moonside> I attack her.
[02:39] <~flibbyjibbits> shes 25 feet away now
[02:39] <Deathfish64> "Ow!"
[02:40] <~flibbyjibbits> crossbow, right?
[02:40] <Eltrotraw> can I reload and shoot in the same turn?
[02:40] <Eltrotraw> because I'm gonna have to afk in a bit
[02:40] <Moonside> Rapier.
[02:40] <Deathfish64> (psst, did the coin pass through me?)
[02:40] <~flibbyjibbits> sure why not
[02:41] <~flibbyjibbits> you stick he in the leg with the rapier, though it doesn't seem to have fazed her much, despite doing 6 whole damage
[02:41] <Moonside> Woo!
[02:41] <CommodoreJim> Lotte may wanna get out of the way...
[02:42] <Moonside> Let's pretend I'm a little to her side or something.
[02:43] <CommodoreJim> Alright, then, it's my turn, right? I ready my lance and Charge.
[02:43] <Skeleton> Ready your umbrellas for elfguts
[02:44] <~flibbyjibbits> you charge at her with your lance
[02:44] <CommodoreJim> "Alright, Melange! This is it!" I shout to my horse as she bolts forward in a charge
[02:44] <Deathfish64> I close my eyes
[02:44] <~flibbyjibbits> the lance gets her right in the chest, sending her a couple dozen feet backwards, 19 damage, but she gets up, though noticeable much less steady and nearly falling over
[02:45] <Moonside> Wow, man.
[02:45] <Skeleton> I am picturing God Hand-like physics
[02:45] <CommodoreJim> "...Maker preserve us." I mutter, and Melange whinnies.
[02:45] <Skeleton> And screaming
[02:45] <Moonside> SO YOU'RE THE GOD HAND
[02:45] <Gilgamesh> I still need to get htat
[02:45] <CommodoreJim> Gotta love the double damage on mounted lance attacks
[02:45] <~flibbyjibbits> [1 hp left :Y ]
[02:46] <Deathfish64> (Time to help!)
[02:46] <Moonside> Yay!
[02:46] <CommodoreJim> Man can Melange like
[02:46] <CommodoreJim> kick her or something :<
[02:46] <CommodoreJim> C'mon, horse, work with me
[02:46] <Gilgamesh> fish acid splash might kill her this time
[02:46] <CommodoreJim> Anyway, go Pikkup!
[02:46] <Deathfish64> Jim, you already stabbed her in the boobs...er, I mean chest
[02:46] <Deathfish64> Yeah, let's go with Acid Spaaaash!
[02:46] <CommodoreJim> Too bad I didn't crit
[02:46] <Skeleton> "Well, I do like a strong woman... but she's probably too old for me," I think to myself
[02:47] <~flibbyjibbits> the acid splash does not hit
[02:47] <CommodoreJim> Lances also have a 3x
[02:47] <Deathfish64> aww
[02:47] <Moonside> derp
[02:47] <Deathfish64> Well, nothing else I have would have either
[02:47] <~flibbyjibbits> you actually got a 20, just didnt confirm the crit
[02:47] <~flibbyjibbits> @jim i mean
[02:47] <CommodoreJim> Damn
[02:47] <Moonside> Well, Urist's time.
[02:47] <Gilgamesh> should we attempt to question her or just kill her outright?
[02:47] <Moonside> She's a random encounter.
[02:48] <Gilgamesh> ok then
[02:48] <Deathfish64> I don't think she's available for questioning anyway
[02:48] <Deathfish64> Considering the trancelike state
[02:48] <Gilgamesh> rush in with my ☼Dwarven Axe☼ and hack away
[02:48] <Skeleton> She's a crazy bitch
[02:48] <Skeleton> Kill her
[02:48] <Skeleton> Well, killing is bad...
[02:48] <~flibbyjibbits> you chop her in the shoulder and she collapses to the ground, unmoving but still alive
[02:48] <Gilgamesh> she's probably a CRIMINAL
[02:49] <Gilgamesh> probably
[02:49] <Moonside> Yay.
[02:49] <Moonside> I search her.
[02:49] <Gilgamesh> victory!
[02:49] <Skeleton> Drunk Elf became tame!
[02:49] <Skeleton> YOU WIN!
[02:49] <Deathfish64> But she's at least afflicted with MORTAL WOUND! condition, right?
[02:49] <Moonside> Dying.
[02:49] <CommodoreJim> I put away my lance. "...how did she...?"
[02:50] <~flibbyjibbits> all the had was the leather dress, quiver with 20 arrows, and the purse with 30 gold worth of silver and copper coins, as well as quite a lot of currency that does not appear to be valid in any nation you are aware of
[02:50] <Gilgamesh> I could stabilize her if you guys want, but...
[02:50] <Gilgamesh> (take the dress)
[02:50] <Deathfish64> What kind of leather?
[02:50] <Moonside> Appraise the foreign money.
[02:50] <Eltrotraw> let's steal the money
[02:50] <~flibbyjibbits> horse @df
[02:50] <CommodoreJim> Melange whinnies, and I pat her on the head. "Good girl."
[02:50] <Moonside> And take the silver/copper.
[02:50] <Deathfish64> okay
[02:51] <Moonside> Er, I mean, take the silver/copper.
[02:51] <Moonside> It'll be 5 for each one, yes?
[02:51] <~flibbyjibbits> appraisal failed : you guess it might be for some far off nation; its definitely not made of gold, silver, or copper, but might be like tin or lead or something? The value would likely be derived from the notation, but its too corroded to tell what it says
[02:51] <~flibbyjibbits> yres
[02:52] <Skeleton> I bite one of the coins
[02:52] <Gilgamesh> ok I'm sorry but
[02:52] <Gilgamesh> I'm really tired
[02:52] <Moonside> Well, I leave the foreign coins then.
[02:52] <Gilgamesh> I'm going to go to bed
[02:52] <Gilgamesh> night all
[02:52] <~flibbyjibbits> gn
[02:52] <Moonside> Bye.
[02:52] <CommodoreJim> Urist takes a peek under the skirt and passes out.
[02:52] <CommodoreJim> We tie him to Rapidash.
[02:52] <Gilgamesh> (she's not even my species)
[02:52] <Moonside> Can I kill her?
[02:52] <Gilgamesh> (or made of gold)
[02:53] <CommodoreJim> (Gold piercing)
[02:53] <Gilgamesh> (oh)
[02:53] <Skeleton> You don't have to kill her
[02:53] <Deathfish64> (Is "kill" code for lesbians)
[02:53] <~flibbyjibbits> freddie rolls an int check of dc like 7 and decides not to do that since theyre rusty and nasty and possibly made of lead
[02:53] * Gilgamesh ([email protected]) has left #adventure
[02:53] <Skeleton> Aw
[02:53] <Skeleton> Well at least I know they're not wood
[02:54] <CommodoreJim> (She had her shoulder hacked off and was stabbed in the chest with a lance, would she really wanna lesbian with that)
[02:54] <~flibbyjibbits> unless you still really want to but i mean you dont have much of a con stat or fort save
[02:54] <Skeleton> Nahh
[02:54] <Skeleton> Lead is bad
[02:55] <Moonside> Well, I guess we just leave her dying there then.
[02:55] <Deathfish64> I guess
[02:55] * Deathfish64 shrug
[02:55] <CommodoreJim> Missed your chance, Freddieboy.
[02:55] <Skeleton> Feels bad to leave someone for dead... but she did make the first move
[02:55] <Skeleton> How old was she? Can I tell?
[02:56] <~flibbyjibbits> about middle age, for an elf
[02:56] <Deathfish64> brb just a sec
[02:56] <Skeleton> Eugh.
[02:56] <Moonside> Anyway, we continue on after Freddie briefly considers necrophilia.
[02:57] <CommodoreJim> I sigh. "Unfortunate."
[02:57] <Skeleton> What?
[02:57] <Skeleton> What!
[02:57] <~flibbyjibbits> leavin her to die or stabilizing? Pretty sure stabilize is a cantrip and so doesnt count against per day limits
[02:57] <Skeleton> No
[02:57] <Moonside> I'd prefer to just kill her.
[02:57] <bghvgjdh> (it is a free spell)
[02:57] <Moonside> Yeah, I know what's a cantrip.
[02:57] <bghvgjdh> I guess since I'm still here I'll just ct that before I go
[02:58] <CommodoreJim> MORALLY HARD DECISIONS FOR A KNIGHT.
[02:58] <Skeleton> Or anyone with a Good alignment...
[02:58] <bghvgjdh> Stabilize her and pull her off the road for someone else
[02:58] <bghvgjdh> Apart from that, she's on her own
[02:58] <~flibbyjibbits> and you took her money too right
[02:58] <Moonside> Yeah.
[02:58] <Moonside> So she's not going to throw it at any more people.
[02:59] <Deathfish64> But we left the arrows
[02:59] <Moonside> ...
[02:59] <Moonside> Let's just go.
[02:59] <Deathfish64> So that excuse does not fly
[02:59] <Skeleton> We could leave the arrows behind in the ground to lead us home, like bread crumbs
[02:59] <Deathfish64> Whatever
[02:59] <CommodoreJim> "Poor thing."
[03:00] <Deathfish64> "Hey, I took damage!"
[03:00] <~flibbyjibbits> it was almost sundown, anyway; you pretty quickly come upon a little roadside hut sort of thing; its got three walls and a roof, clearly designed just for travvelors on the road. do you stay there for the night or keep going to get a bit more distance before stopping
[03:01] <Moonside> Sure, let's stay here.
[03:01] <Deathfish64> We should stop and treat our wounded
[03:01] <Moonside> One less ration.
[03:01] <Eltrotraw> one night's rest heals 8 hp, right?
[03:01] <~flibbyjibbits> also interesting how quickly the librarian suggested to kill someone
[03:01] <Skeleton> sauerkraut AGAIN?
[03:01] <~flibbyjibbits> a night real heals your level
[03:01] <~flibbyjibbits> thats 2
[03:01] <Eltrotraw> oh okay
[03:01] <Deathfish64> So I'm at 2 below
[03:02] <~flibbyjibbits> we can assume that urist used the rest of his spells per day to top people back up
[03:02] <Deathfish64> I guess that's healthy enough
[03:02] <Deathfish64> oh okay
[03:02] <~flibbyjibbits> befoe sleeping
[03:02] <Deathfish64> That works for me
[03:02] <Moonside> Yeah, flib, like I said before, she doesn't give a shit about random people that try to kill her.
[03:02] <CommodoreJim> I try to decide how to not look suspicious. I want to eat, but everyone will be like "HMM" if I decide to sleep in a tent and not a hut
[03:02] <Skeleton> You say "I'm not hungry" and we're all "HUHHHHH????"
[03:02] <CommodoreJim> And the matter of me sleeping
[03:02] <Moonside> Why don't you show that you're a half-orc?
[03:03] <~flibbyjibbits> theres a bard there spreading rumors that some disaster occurred as Asaida, but he doesn't know any details
[03:03] <Skeleton> Because racists (read: old people)
[03:03] <Moonside> Actually, wouldn't he need some disguise checks for that?
[03:04] <~flibbyjibbits> disguise checks for what
[03:04] <Moonside> Not looking like a half-orc.
[03:04] <~flibbyjibbits> welll if hes wearing a helmet all the time
[03:04] <Moonside> Hmmm.
[03:05] <CommodoreJim> Reasons are 1) People tend to not be kind towards the race, and 2) He's trying to prove himself a great hero and break free of his racial stigma, but he feels if he shows that he's one now, the plan could fizzle out before it even gets off the ground and 3) Habit
[03:05] <Moonside> Hmmm.
[03:05] <Skeleton> 4) could seriously damage his probability of getting into Lotte's pants
[03:06] <CommodoreJim> Shut it, knife-ears!
[03:06] <Skeleton> They're more like letter openers
[03:06] <Deathfish64> I eat the ration[9]
[03:06] <Moonside> She wears a long skirt.
[03:06] <Moonside> Dunno what's the right word.
[03:07] <CommodoreJim> I just sit with my back against the wall, deep in thought.
[03:07] <Moonside> I fall asleep somewhere after finishing eating.
[03:08] <~flibbyjibbits> In the morning, the bard that had been spreading the rumors asks if you'd like to travel together, with his small group of 4 horses-6 people, since you're headed the same direction
[03:08] <Moonside> No.
[03:09] <Skeleton> I wait for the other votes
[03:09] <CommodoreJim> Uh wait I don't know how I handled this. I guess given the circumstances I'm fatigued...but dammit
[03:09] <CommodoreJim> That wrecks my shit so hard
[03:09] <Eltrotraw> Oh, I suppose it's time eat another ration too huh
[03:09] <Eltrotraw> Time to perception, how's their group
[03:09] <Deathfish64> If you spell bard backwards you get drab.  Who wants to travel with somebody drab?
[03:09] <Deathfish64> But in character I have no objections
[03:09] <CommodoreJim> No charge, STR and Dex decrease
[03:10] <~flibbyjibbits> {1} the group seems to be ferectly fine, though some of them seem a bit sinister
[03:10] <Eltrotraw> wat
[03:10] <CommodoreJim> Dammit
[03:10] <Moonside> I'll Sense Motive.
[03:11] <Skeleton> Sense motive (of all of them, including horses)
[03:11] <CommodoreJim> Well, balls. I guess I'm fatigued for now, having slept in my armor. Shit shit dammit shit
[03:11] <~flibbyjibbits> [20] He probably thinks that your group looks tougher and that he would be safer; and also that he might try to use your clearance to get through the border
[03:11] <CommodoreJim> I'm too tired to bother sensing motive.
[03:11] <Skeleton> Retcon it.
[03:11] <Moonside> Yeah, no.
[03:11] <Deathfish64> Diplomacy check to convince them that they don't really want to travel with us
[03:11] <CommodoreJim> I'd have to retcon in a whole "Hey guys I'm a half-orc!" scene
[03:12] <Skeleton> No, you could sleep on the roof of the hut thing or something
[03:12] <CommodoreJim> I mutter something about being too tired to bother and tell you guys to decide.
[03:12] <~flibbyjibbits> {1} "This some kinda reverse psycology bit here?"
[03:12] <Deathfish64> Even +6 will not save me from that, huh?
[03:12] <CommodoreJim> ...actually I may have to diplomacy here.
[03:13] <Skeleton> I don't really have a problem with it, might just make fights take forever
[03:13] <Moonside> I tell them to fuck off already.
[03:13] <CommodoreJim> Maybe diplomacy check, telling them we're constantly under attack an' shit
[03:13] <Eltrotraw> Tombs has his own thoughts on Drommy though but shrugs and leaves it at that
[03:13] <Eltrotraw> If it's possible, would intimidation work to dissuade them?
[03:13] <CommodoreJim> ("We got coins thrown at us. COINS. I stabbed her in the chest and she DIDN'T DIE.")
[03:13] <Eltrotraw> Or are they very adamant on making their way to the city/town/wathever?
[03:14] <~flibbyjibbits> He seems willing to believe Drominus, but still says that they're headed the same direction anyway
[03:14] <Moonside> While this all is going on, I Sense Motive Drommy because he's acting weird.
[03:14] <CommodoreJim> Balls!
[03:14] <CommodoreJim> Knew I shoulda taken bluff
[03:15] <~flibbyjibbits> do you want to do opposed checks for that or just sort it out or what
[03:15] <Moonside> Disguise or Bluff, I guess.
[03:15] <CommodoreJim> Eh, whatever. Drom's in reality too exhausted to really notice
[03:16] <~flibbyjibbits> well 14-8 lotte v drom if you wanted rolls for it; what that means is up to you
[03:16] <CommodoreJim> Well, I suppose it's readily apparent I'm hiding -something-
[03:16] <Moonside> Well, I rolled Sense Motive.
[03:16] <Skeleton> It's a gambit. To weird the other party out
[03:18] <Moonside> Well, I notice that he's obviously hiding something, though I don't say anything at this time. I'll talk to him privately later and ask him about it then.
[03:18] <Moonside> ("privately")
[03:18] <Deathfish64> hmm
[03:19] <Deathfish64> I perform the ritual to summon my Eidolon
[03:19] <Skeleton> Freddie probably thinks Drom is actually made of metal and just had his exoskeleton upgraded
[03:19] <CommodoreJim> "Well, looks like they're coming with us, I guess." I grumble. And even when tired, as a knight, I can't turn away someone who needs protection.
[03:19] <Moonside> 18 INT
[03:19] <~flibbyjibbits> the eidlon ritual draws quite a bit of attention
[03:20] <Skeleton> Hahahahaahahahahahahahaha
[03:20] <Deathfish64> Is it interrupted?
[03:20] <Skeleton> "Lookit! Look at that! LOOK!"
[03:21] <~flibbyjibbits> you have to start over once but manage to summon it
[03:22] <Moonside> I frown at the prospect of having MORE PEOPLE IN THE PARTY
[03:22] <Deathfish64> woo
[03:22] <CommodoreJim> 'Eurmahzah, that thing is ugly.'
[03:22] <Moonside> Df, what exactly does your eidolon look like?
[03:22] <Deathfish64> Horrible snake monster.  Eidolons generally do not look like anything that can easily be desribed
[03:22] <Deathfish64> described*
[03:24] <Moonside> Alright then, let's continue.
[03:24] <Deathfish64> I whisper some instructions to Ekans, who then turns to the bard's group and menacingly hisses "Go away!"  (intimidation check.  It is a class skill {chosen} and Ekans has 1 rank)
[03:25] <~flibbyjibbits> he is somewhat shaken
[03:25] <Skeleton> Aww, we're so bad
[03:26] <~flibbyjibbits> the other people in the crowd are more frightened
[03:26] <~flibbyjibbits> "Alright, we'll wait a while before heading off, let you get comfortably ahead of us, if thats what you wanted to hear."
[03:27] <Deathfish64> Oh... Unnatural Aura is probably going to make the horses freak out
[03:27] <Moonside> "Wooo! Let's go, guys!"
[03:28] <Deathfish64> I will dismiss Ekans then
[03:28] <Moonside> Why?
[03:28] <Deathfish64> Unnatural Aura
[03:28] <Moonside> Meh.
[03:28] <~flibbyjibbits> eidolons freak out animals
[03:28] <CommodoreJim> "That was rather...uncalled for, I'd say."
[03:29] <Deathfish64> I doubt I could make the 25 DC ride check to make Rapidash willing to be close to Ekans
[03:29] <Deathfish64> "Yeah, well, I felt like it."
[03:29] <~flibbyjibbits> some malice out of pikkup :o
[03:29] <CommodoreJim> "...whatever." I reply rather uncharacteristically.
[03:29] <Skeleton> "I thought we were gonna be... well... more like heroes..."
[03:30] <Skeleton> I say in a fading voice
[03:30] <Skeleton> *trailing
[03:30] <Deathfish64> Chaotic
[03:30] <CommodoreJim> I sigh. "Unfortunately, it's not always glamourous. And know how things have been going for us, they'd probably be in more danger traveling with us..."
[03:30] <Skeleton> crazy heroes
[03:31] <CommodoreJim> I pause "And think of it this way, Freddie. If we blaze the trail, we'll take out anything that would've hassled them."
[03:31] <Skeleton> "Oh... when you put it like that it sounds like they tricked us into doing all the work!"
[03:31] <Skeleton> "Clever..."
[03:31] <Deathfish64> "Besides, having too many of us around might deter monster attacks.  Can't have that!:
[03:31] <Moonside> "...let's just go."
[03:31] <Deathfish64> "
[03:32] <CommodoreJim> I chuckle. "Well, what do you think the old man in the tower is doing? C'mon, let's go."
[03:33] <~flibbyjibbits> Nothing of note happens; but as the sun sets, you can se the lights of the city, perhaps two or three hours away, though the sky is quite dark and it might begin to rain soon
[03:33] <Skeleton> "Maybe they had fifty people, and most of them were eaten, crushed, abducted..."
[03:33] <Eltrotraw> Oh boy!
[03:34] <Eltrotraw> We can finally get there
[03:34] <~flibbyjibbits> The other group, apparently two wagons, followed you a bit in the distance, about an hour back
[03:34] <~flibbyjibbits> do you stay the night outside and enter the city in the morning or just head in at night
[03:34] <CommodoreJim> "...looks like rain..." I mutter.
[03:34] <Skeleton> "Nah those are definitely rainCLOUDS"
[03:34] <Moonside> Head in, I guess.
[03:35] <Deathfish64> "tut-tut"
[03:35] <Deathfish64> I vote we go for it
[03:35] <CommodoreJim> "City's close. Let's just put in a final push."
[03:35] <~flibbyjibbits> if you rush your horses, you're able to make it there before the gates close for the night
[03:35] <Skeleton> "Sure! Water never hurt anybody."
[03:35] <Moonside> Not all of us are on horses, though.
[03:36] <Deathfish64> Run faster
[03:36] <~flibbyjibbits> how many are there hmm just 2 right
[03:36] <CommodoreJim> That's very few. I don't think we could fit everyone.
[03:36] <Eltrotraw> If we ride along, let's get lotte and drommy on a horse together :3c
[03:36] <~flibbyjibbits> well I didnt mean like a horse rush at high speeds but like a hustle
[03:37] <Skeleton> MACH SPEED!
[03:37] <~flibbyjibbits> which is still doable on foot though whoevers on foot would take some nonlethal damage from the exertion
[03:37] <Moonside> Is there any cover outside?
[03:38] <~flibbyjibbits> theres some scattered trees but its getting to be farmland again
[03:39] <Moonside> Alright, let's run.
[03:39] <~flibbyjibbits> assuming 2 people can fit on a horse, whos gonna be on foot?
[03:39] <~flibbyjibbits> drom cant because hes fatigued
[03:39] <Skeleton> I can! MACH SPEEEEEEEEEEED
[03:39] * Skeleton runs out of VFX and un-henshins
[03:39] <Moonside> Lotte goes with Drom, I guess.
[03:40] <Deathfish64> I stay on Rapidash
[03:40] <~flibbyjibbits> then urist takes the other footslot
[03:40] <~flibbyjibbits> since hes not here to complain
[03:40] <Skeleton> Heheh
[03:40] <~flibbyjibbits> wait no hes gotta be on a horse since hes got low movespeed
[03:40] <~flibbyjibbits> ah nevermind
[03:40] <~flibbyjibbits> you arrive at the city
[03:40] <Eltrotraw> so where does tombs go
[03:40] <CommodoreJim> I help Lotte up onto Melange. "We've gotta hurry, the gates will close soon. C'mon, girl!"
[03:40] <Eltrotraw> probaly on foot
[03:40] <Skeleton> How much damage
[03:40] <CommodoreJim> And we're there
[03:40] <Moonside> Ride check?
[03:40] <CommodoreJim> Tombs hugs Pikkup
[03:40] <CommodoreJim> 's waist
[03:40] <~flibbyjibbits> 3 nonlethal damage by the time you arrive
[03:41] <Moonside> Well, I get up on Melange anyway.
[03:41] <Skeleton> That's livable
[03:41] <~flibbyjibbits> if you sit in from of drom you can use his ride check
[03:41] <CommodoreJim> Melange is well-trained, assume she's considerate :Y
[03:41] <CommodoreJim> Oh that works. I have some magic in my ride checks probably
[03:41] <~flibbyjibbits> anyways you get to the city; it is now raining
[03:41] <Moonside> Uh, I guess I'll do that.
[03:41] <~flibbyjibbits> {18 on the roll, no problems}
[03:41] <Moonside> If Drom does a DC 25 Perception check he'll notice her blushing a little.
[03:42] <~flibbyjibbits> {2} he sees nothing
[03:42] <CommodoreJim> Too tired to perception
