  1. [07:05] <Silas_> It isn't a butterfly that made that hurricane my friend *wink*
  2. [07:06] <Ramon> HMm I dont want to think about all the warping we would have gained from be under constant magice to keep the evect of aging of us ^^
  3. [07:06] <Nyaa> By then it would be Radiation Warping
  4. [07:06] <Baruch> How much warping does one get from the longevity ritual?
  5. [07:07] <Ramon> Constant Magic Effect
  6. [07:07] <Baruch> Yea, but how much is that per year?
  7. [07:07] <Ramon> Didnt look into it. The Hyperborean Version gives 1 per year
  8. [07:07] <Baruch> Just asking if you remember it by heart, I can look it up obviously
  9. [07:07] <Baruch> Ok
  10. [07:08] <Silas_> I don't think so, not the normal one
  11. [07:08] <CJR> OK dudes have we all stopped getting stoned?
  12. [07:08] <Nyaa> don't think it give one
  13. [07:08] <CJR> JOkes aside tonight is the cultural highlight of the year
  14. [07:08] <CJR> The Eurovision Song Contest!
  15. [07:08] <Silas_> "Let he without sin get stoned first?" or how is it again? :)
  16. [07:08] <Ramon> Nice for the people like it
  17. [07:08] <CJR> Right, everyone ok?
  18. 03[07:09] * Nyaa is now known as Momo
  19. [07:09] <Silas_> present and ready to die
  20. [07:09] <Ramon> +
  21. [07:09] <Corbenik> Debatable as I'm sick but yeah
  22. [07:09] <Momo> Born ready to crawl
  23. [07:09] <CJR> OK, the fight at the Mercer House Coventry has ended
  24. [07:10] <CJR> Gustbran, you actually stopped short of killing someone. Was it because he was not a magus?
  25. [07:10] <CJR> Ramon has taken you up high on Sedala, and you are winging east to Bishop's Lynn
  26. [07:11] <CJR> http://www.cjromer.com/rpg/ars/anglia.jpg
  27. [07:11] <Ramon> "Do any one know a big City or covenant nearby I could give Sedala as direction?"
  28. [07:11] <CJR> Schola Pythagoranis at Cambridge?
  29. [07:11] <CJR> However Lynn is easy to find.
  30. 01[07:11] <@Gustbran> (It was simply because I felt the 'weight' of my actions. I don't want to escalate things further)
  31. [07:11] <CJR> It is on the coast, and on the edge of the Fens, huge reedy marshes.
  32. [07:11] <Ramon> (I didnt ask you CJ I asked the other player ^^)
  33. [07:11] <CJR> See map
  34. [07:11] <CJR> AH I see!
  35. [07:12] <Silas_> "Aedithe?"
  36. [07:12] <CJR> This map more useful.
  37. [07:12] <CJR> http://www.cjromer.com/rpg/ars/fen2.jpg
  38. 06[07:12] * Momo pop out of a bag
  39. [07:12] <CJR> She shrugs. Lynn is about three days north of Bury she says. I went there once. Fishhing town, not as big as Bury or Norwich obviously, but pretty huge place.
  40. 06[07:13] * Baruch startled by Momo
  41. 06[07:13] * Corbenik looks at the bag "Who let the cat out of the bag?"
  42. [07:13] <Ramon> (Its about if we can use the skysee again or not)
  43. [07:13] <CJR> Bit too close tyo use SkySea
  44. [07:13] <Ramon> (Ramon didnt manage to get a look at the maps ^^)
  45. [07:13] <CJR> You can be ther ein two hours maximum
  46. [07:13] <Momo> "The dogs"
  47. [07:14] <CJR> (I thought ramon looked t athem before the truble started?)
  48. [07:14] <Silas_> "Momo?" [sounds disbelieving]
  49. [07:14] <Momo> "yes?"
  50. [07:14] <Ramon> "Huh what are a speaking cat doing in my sadlebasket?"
  51. [07:14] <Baruch> (I thought so too)
  52. [07:14] <Silas_> "How did you get there?"
  53. [07:14] <Momo> "Better than a flipping covenant"
  54. [07:14] <Momo> "A falling one in fact."
  55. [07:14] <CJR> :)
  56. [07:15] <Momo> "Flipping and falling"
  57. [07:15] <Silas_> "... fair point! Welcome along.."
  58. [07:15] <Momo> "Tossing and turning"
  59. [07:15] <Baruch> "Well, there is that. I am not certain this is a better place to be, frankly, but we will see."
  60. [07:15] <Ramon> (Yes he wanted to do but you realy say he could do in 2-3 Minutes he haved?)
  61. [07:15] <Baruch> (Looking at a map isn't that complicated, is it, though)
  62. [07:15] <Silas_> (depends on the map ^^ )
  63. [07:15] <Momo> "I ask fishy to come but he's like, "What shaking?""
  64. [07:16] <Silas_> (well, 'looking at it' is perhaps easy, but reading it...)
  65. [07:16] <Momo> "Makara is like, "SHAKE IS NO CENTER AND SO IT IS NOT SHAKE"
  66. [07:16] <CJR> (yes, it's a major town and you knew John was in East Anglia so you know where it is.)
  67. [07:16] <Silas_> "..."
  68. [07:17] <Ramon> (good)
  69. [07:17] <Silas_> [to self] "why am I not surprised?.."
  70. [07:17] <Momo> (Calpurnia might understand :d )
  71. [07:18] <Silas_> "Still..."
  72. [07:18] <Silas_> "Once we get the crown,.. and bury it, we can explain it all to Mercere..."
  73. [07:18] <Baruch> "Do you know where we are going now, Ramon?"
  74. [07:18] <Silas_> "and the Questor.."
  75. [07:19] <Ramon> "Yes I think I know the way"
  76. [07:20] <Baruch> "Yes, let us hope that wins us the allies we need."
  77. [07:20] <CJR> Gustbran, you got any area lor abailities?
  78. [07:20] <Baruch> "Excellent."
  79. [07:20] <CJR> Area Lore even?
  80. 01[07:20] <@Gustbran> (yes.)
  81. [07:20] <Ramon> "But its best if Gustbran and Edit also have a look as I'm not used to this area"
  82. [07:20] <CJR> Okey doke, make ame a roll on whichever seesm most appropriate :)
  83. 01[07:21] <@Gustbran> (Covenant: Area 5 (personalities))
  84. [07:21] <Momo> (Stabbing Lore: 50)
  85. [07:21] <CJR> Ah, nope needsomething else I think. Lat covers Libellus
  86. [07:21] <CJR> USeful though!
  87. [07:21] <CJR> You are no flying over the western edge of the Fens.
  88. [07:22] <Ramon> (Should I botch my Area Lore Europa? ^^)
  89. [07:22] <Baruch> "Are you familiar with this area at all, Edith?"
  90. [07:22] <Silas_> (hehe)
  91. [07:22] <CJR> A sea of reeds is broken by occasional large islands, many with hamlets and crops growing, small muddy banks, areas of woodland and heath, and dark dismal marshes, with rivers and deep lakes and meres all completely balck in colour
  92. [07:23] <Momo> (I see a place call 'eye' and a place call 'crowland')
  93. [07:23] <CJR> Edith says "I know the water here is black. When it urns ornage we have reached the Breckland"
  94. [07:23] <Ramon> (Sadly 2 exp are missing to get it to 2)
  95. [07:23] <CJR> Momo, yep, sizeable towns
  96. [07:23] <CJR> You have (almost) all seen the Fens before
  97. 01[07:23] <@Gustbran> (how scientific, edith!)
  98. [07:24] <CJR> you are approaching the very spot where Goricious went in to Twilight and the drake attacked you
  99. [07:24] <Baruch> "Remember this, Silas? And we fools didn't know how to fly the boat!"
  100. [07:24] <Silas_> "Still, we still need to consider how to get the crown from the king..."
  101. 01[07:24] <@Gustbran> (I wasn't there...)
  102. [07:24] <CJR> Edith looks pleased. "Yes Gustbran,, I am quite clever!" she says "when the water leaves chalk in your pan you are near Bury!"
  103. [07:24] <Silas_> [looks around] ah... yes
  104. [07:25] <Ramon> "What are you talking about?"
  105. [07:25] <Baruch> "That is a question, certainly. Before we know what we are up against, though, perhaps not trouble our heads with that."
  106. [07:25] <Silas_> "It turned out alright though, didn't it!"
  107. [07:25] <Baruch> "We were here before, Ramon. Not entirely pleasant memories."
  108. [07:26] <CJR> OK, you see Eye, a small town with sokme stone buildings, and Crowland. Crowland is a propsperous little town on an island, with a huge church. Not Bury size, but a cathedral by most places standards. :)
  109. [07:26] <Momo> "Oh, oh, we will get to see a drake, yes?"
  110. [07:26] <Silas_> "I saw my first drake here." [smiles somewhat fondly at the memory]
  111. [07:26] <Corbenik> O_o
  112. [07:26] <Baruch> "A drake would be a diversion, wouldn't it."
  113. [07:26] <Ramon> "Let bether hope we dont see any this time"
  114. [07:27] <CJR> Far to the south you can see what must be a real cathedral with a town round it -- http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3546/3492052857_c6eaa1d774_z.jpg?zz=1
  115. [07:27] <CJR> Edith tells you that is Ely
  116. [07:27] <Silas_> (that is pretty impressive)
  117. [07:27] <Momo> "Look at all these pointy building, like they are trying to stab someone falling from the sky"
  118. [07:27] <CJR> Momo, something down by Crowland in the marshes sets your fur on edge
  119. [07:28] <Momo> "wahhhhh"
  120. [07:28] <CJR> Corbenik, you have a bad feeling about those marshes too
  121. [07:28] <Momo> "HISSSS"

  128. [07:28] <Momo> "That Marshes"
  129. [07:28] <Silas_> (was meaning the town, but sure :) )
  130. [07:28] <Corbenik> "I would suggest not heading to the Marshes, Maguses"

  134. [07:29] <CJR> Just looks like this down there
  135. [07:29] <CJR> http://www.burwell.co.uk/newpics/Wicken%20Fen.jpg
  136. [07:29] <CJR> Nothing to see.
  137. [07:29] <CJR> OK, fly on?
  138. [07:30] <Baruch> "Can you take us around this, Ramon? Momo seems to sense something."
  139. [07:30] <Momo> "I hisss on you marsh, I hiss on you!" Momo cursed
  140. 03[07:30] * Retrieving #wizardbase modes...
  141. [07:30] <Momo> "Such dirty water!"
  142. [07:30] <Ramon> "Hmm this would take us some time but if we have to"
  143. [07:30] <CJR> (flying north or south round the area in question?)
  144. [07:30] <Baruch> "Perhaps it is for the best - we have a week still, don't we?"
  145. [07:31] <Silas_> "Don't be silly, you might scare Sedala"
  146. [07:31] <CJR> Gustbran Per + Awareness roll please

  151. [07:31] <Baruch> (Do we have the cloud on? We do, from before, right?)
  152. [07:31] <Silas_> (north)
  153. [07:31] <CJR> (yes)
  154. [07:32] <Momo> "No time for swarm, go somewhere"
  155. [07:32] <Silas_> (quite a way)
  156. [07:32] <Ramon> (yes cloud is still there as we didnt hear about day or night change)
  157. [07:32] <CJR> Gustbran, http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2009/4/3/1238772381486/Wicken-Fen-View-of-water--010.jpg
  158. [07:32] <CJR> But there a few rocky islets down there, and one fo two have caves. Od given how marshy the area is
  159. 01[07:32] <@Gustbran> "Ah, ducks!"
  160. [07:32] <Momo> "Look at those dammed duck, swimming on the marsh like it was nothing!"
  161. [07:32] <CJR> You notice one seems to be inhabited. And it is from there that Momo and Corbenik are gettingthe bad feeling
  162. [07:33] <Ramon> to Sedala" Let us fly around this the north route"
  163. 06[07:33] * Silas_ doesn't see anything
  164. [07:33] <Momo> "They are infernal duck I bet!"
  165. [07:33] <Calpurnia_on_vacation> "........ it's the cave"
  166. [07:33] <Calpurnia_on_vacation> (oops)
  167. [07:33] <Momo> "No, no, it has to be the duck."
  168. [07:33] <Corbenik> "Then you should kill them"
  169. [07:33] <CJR> OK, the undergrowth gets thicker below - http://www.wetlandvision.org.uk/userfiles/Image/Wicken%20fen.jpg
  170. 06[07:33] * Momo look over, "Did I just heard calpurnia voice just now?"
  171. [07:33] <Silas_> (the otherworldly voice of Calpurnia pieces the veil)
  172. [07:34] <Ramon> "We have more burning mather on hand the looking for what momo distracts down there!"
  173. [07:34] <Momo> "Stop messing with my Mind, Criamon!"
  174. [07:34] <Baruch> I'll keep an eye on this cave Calpurnia mentinoed
  175. [07:34] <CJR> You fly round to the north, and sudenly ar eover open sea, or at least an estauary. It's pretty busy actually!
  176. [07:34] <Calpurnia_on_vacation> ("No you didn't hear me being eaten by trolls so get back to the story")

  196. [07:36] <Silas_> (a holy mother F--ing dragon appears behind you!! o.O )
  197. [07:37] <Corbenik> (and Calpurnia is on it)
  198. [07:37] <CJR> OK, you really see this! About twenty five miles north, in The Wash (see maps) you can see this just above horizon
  199. [07:37] <Momo> "Oh, just a drake."
  200. [07:37] <CJR> http://www.sciencephoto.com/image/363369/350wm/V3300043-Illuminated_manuscript_of_medieval_fleet_of_ships-SPL.jpg
  201. [07:38] <Silas_> (my ship!)
  202. [07:38] <Silas_> (or wait, no.. the french ships)
  203. [07:38] <CJR> French flags: about thirty ships, clearly bristling with troops
  204. [07:38] <Corbenik> (ahhh the french invasion, Baruch if you please)
  205. [07:38] <Baruch> (So they're far off from the shore?)
  206. 01[07:38] <@Gustbran> (STABBING TIME!)
  207. [07:38] <CJR> and on a southerly course towards Bishop's Lynn!
  208. [07:38] <Ramon> "looks like we geting close"
  209. [07:38] <Momo> "Yess, entertain me, peasants!"
  210. [07:39] <Corbenik> "Hmmm they might become a problem with our search"
  211. [07:39] <CJR> About two hours out you'd guess, maybe a lot less
  212. [07:39] <Silas_> "... or make the king more desperate..."
  213. [07:39] <CJR> OK, well you knew the French were hunting John!
  214. [07:39] <Baruch> "Yes, this could be either a problem or a wanted diversion."
  215. [07:39] <Ramon> "Did you expect otherwise Corbenik? They whant to eliminat Prince John"
  216. [07:39] <Momo> "Can't we get the French king's crown or something?"
  217. [07:40] <CJR> OK, yuou ar eback over land now, and lose sight of the French in the mists
  218. [07:40] <Silas_> "no, it must be english"
  219. [07:40] <CJR> A fog is coming in from The Wash
  220. [07:40] <Corbenik> "Hmmm should one of you guys make it so they are delayed so we have more time before they reach shore?"
  221. [07:40] <Momo> "... Oh, so mine works?" Momo Paw his paper crown
  222. [07:40] <Silas_> "And I don't think the french king would hand us his..."
  223. [07:41] <Silas_> [looks at the crown, doubtful] "are you willing to give it up Momo?"
  224. [07:41] <Baruch> "Do we wish to delay them, though? Perhaps we do."
  225. [07:41] <Momo> "Ehh... I can ask my servant to make me another one."
  226. [07:41] <Ramon> "We can fly trough the Fog , the ships cant do so"
  227. [07:41] <Baruch> (So a fog is coming from the north?)
  228. [07:41] <Momo> "But it might need human crown just in case, so get it either way"
  229. [07:42] <CJR> (Yes)
  230. [07:42] <Corbenik> "Either way I doubt having a french invasion was a part of our plan to get the crown, or was it?"
  231. [07:42] <Baruch> "We didn't have a plan, really, as I recall."
  232. [07:42] <Ramon> "I dont know but we knew about the war so it was to expected"
  233. [07:42] <Silas_> "I don't think it will work Momo, being of the Fay.. it was a kind thought though!"
  234. [07:42] <CJR> Ah, ok, as you are suc percpetive guys just before the fog closes in you see ahead of you, marching north, a long colum of soldiers, headed by a large contingent of knights
  235. [07:42] <CJR> They are marching toward Lynn
  236. [07:42] <Momo> "Aww, and I thought it would be an easy way to save the world"
  237. [07:42] <CJR> They braer the Royal Banner fo Farnce at their head
  238. [07:43] <Silas_> "Antonius might have known.." [to Corbenik]
  239. [07:43] <Ramon> "Ok we have to be faster then them"
  240. 01[07:43] <@Gustbran> maybe put the general to sleep as we pass by! ;))
  241. [07:43] <Baruch> "Well, that settles that, doesn't it. I don't think we can delay those men."
  242. [07:43] <Momo> "Well, leave my crown as the last resort then."
  243. 01[07:43] <@Gustbran> ()
  244. [07:43] <CJR> bear the Royal Banner of France at their head even!
  245. [07:43] <CJR> They are about an hour from Lynn ot the south
  246. [07:44] <Silas_> [to Momo] "of cause"
  247. [07:44] <Corbenik> "Well did he say use the Invasion as a distraction, hell this might be the reason you guys need to get it within a week is due to the invasion, maybe"
  248. [07:44] <Silas_> "He didn't mention it, no, so it may be the reason - I hope it is!"
  249. [07:44] <Baruch> "Yes, well, it does seem to be a nice enough idea not having to deal with an entire army, so I agree with you on that count."
  250. [07:44] <Baruch> "Let's go take a look at the king, shall we?"
  251. [07:45] <Ramon> "I just hope you mages are up for some Mindmaipulation and Glamour magic"
  252. [07:45] <CJR> OK, no this map is small and hard to see, but hopefully you can make it out
  253. [07:45] <CJR> http://www.norfolkmills.co.uk/images/Kings%20Lynn%20map%201240.jpg
  254. [07:45] <Silas_> [hesitant] yes..
  255. [07:45] <Ramon> "We sould avoid fighting if posible"
  256. [07:45] <Momo> "Baruch can wipe them out."
  257. 01[07:45] <@Gustbran> !roll 1d10-1 (int roll to count the number of troops marching)
  258. [07:45] <Magic_Dice> Gustbran, (int roll to count the number of troops marching): 1:2-1
  259. [07:45] <CJR> IT's twenty three years after our year but will do.
  260. [07:45] <Corbenik> "Thus is why we should find a way to delay them"
  261. [07:45] <Momo> "Isn't that right, Baruch."
  262. 01[07:45] <@Gustbran> (lol)
  263. [07:45] <Corbenik> (says to Ramon)
  264. [07:46] <CJR> Gutsbran: lots
  265. [07:46] <Silas_> "I quite agree, Ramon, we are already interfering more than we should"
  266. [07:46] <Baruch> (Chapels to the north, east and southwest, a market there, yea I think I get it)
  267. [07:46] <CJR> Gustbran: Actually make that lots and lots and lots
  268. [07:46] <CJR> The main feature is The Purfleet, which is the harbour and cuts right in ot the twon
  269. [07:47] <Ramon> "Sedala can you find us a good current to our goal so we be a bit faster?"
  270. 06[07:47] * Baruch looks at Momo impassively
  271. [07:47] <Momo> "Just turn us invisible, grab his crown and fly away into the night!"
  272. [07:47] <CJR> Note the town is walled, and there ar emaybe 120 citizens with spears and knives tied to brrom handles gyuarding the walls right now
  273. [07:47] <CJR> There is no sign of an army or knights
  274. 01[07:47] <@Gustbran> (yet)
  275. [07:47] <CJR> OK< you can land in Bishop's Lynn.
  276. [07:48] <CJR> What is your plan to land?
  277. [07:48] <Baruch> (What was that about the citizens "tied to brrom handles?"
  278. [07:48] <CJR> Fog getting thicker now...
  279. [07:48] <Silas_> (knives tied to their brooms ^^ )
  280. 01[07:48] <@Gustbran> (haha)
  281. [07:48] <CJR> knives tied to broom handles - they are making spears like that
  282. [07:48] <Momo> (The kind of make shift spear Gustbran hate)
  283. [07:48] <CJR> They seem to be planning to hold out against an attack?
  284. [07:48] <Silas_> "Can we slip in with the fog do you think?" [to Ramon]
  285. 01[07:48] <@Gustbran> (I'll show em how it's really done!)
  286. [07:49] <Momo> (With a harpoon!)
  287. 01[07:49] <@Gustbran> (hey momo, in a pinch, anything will do!)
  288. [07:49] <CJR> It's pretty thick now,m streets filled with white fog streaming in off the sea.
  289. [07:49] <Ramon> "Sedala can see trough Fog, I sadly not"
  290. [07:49] <CJR> You could easily crash in ot someones roof in this fog
  291. 01[07:49] <@Gustbran> "This fog is getting pretty thick!"
  292. [07:49] <Momo> (Someday you need to stab a whale)
  293. [07:49] <CJR> Cool, Sedala, you can see the Tuesday market. Best place to put down.
  294. [07:49] <Baruch> I'll cast true sight of the air on myself
  295. [07:50] <CJR> THough someone might notice, it's unlikely as everything wreathed in fog.
  296. [07:50] <Silas_> (We did crash with the boat,... lets not do so with a living animal ^^)
  297. [07:50] <Baruch> !roll 1d10+20 (against 15)
  298. [07:50] <Magic_Dice> Baruch, (against 15): 21:1+20
  299. [07:50] <CJR> OK no need to roll Baruch, cast.
  300. [07:50] <Ramon> "But I think she can land inside as cloud in a fog is not easy to spot"
  301. [07:50] <Silas_> (and it was a 1, I think you managed ^^ )
  302. [07:50] <Baruch> "I can see through the fog, if this is needed."
  303. [07:50] <Momo> (Don't stop that man from growing a third eye)
  304. [07:51] <CJR> OK< BAruch and Sedal acan see.
  305. [07:51] <CJR> Where you landing?
  306. [07:51] <Baruch> Is there anyone at the marketplace?
  307. [07:51] <CJR> Actually the fog is getting ridicolously thick
  308. 06[07:51] * Ramon activate his redcap and see also
  309. [07:52] <Ramon> (forgot about this ^^)
  310. [07:52] <Ramon> (markteplace or similiare large place)
  311. [07:52] <Ramon> (Sedala need empty place)
  312. [07:52] <Corbenik> "Hmmm this seems a little bit too connected, a vast fog about to cover a invasion."
  313. [07:52] <Baruch> (Yes, CJ mentioned there's amarketplace)
  314. [07:53] <Momo> "Let's just crush into the palace and steal the crown."
  315. [07:53] <CJR> It's a friday, so not many people on Market. A few fishermen walking around, and a few little huts, permanent stalls
  316. 01[07:53] <@Gustbran> "Now that I think about it, yes, that does seem suspicious."
  317. [07:53] <CJR> Most people are on the walls or safe indoors now
  318. [07:53] <Corbenik> "Is there anyway to tell if it's magical?"
  319. [07:53] <CJR> However all the church bells ahev started to ring, ceaselessly
  320. [07:53] <Silas_> "It presents a chance for us too though, so it may work out"
  321. [07:53] <CJR> Tuesday Market is on the map
  322. [07:53] <Baruch> CJ, I spont an intellego auram to sense whether the fog is magical, is that ok?
  323. [07:53] <CJR> Sure.
  324. [07:53] <Baruch> base 2 "sense one property of air"
  325. [07:54] <CJR> yes, toucjh concemntration will do
  326. [07:54] <CJR> So level 4
  327. [07:54] <CJR> roll
  328. [07:54] <Baruch> !roll 1d10+25
  329. [07:54] <Magic_Dice> Baruch: 33:8+25
  330. [07:54] <CJR> or can you just divide by 5?
  331. [07:54] <Baruch> Oh, right, I can
  332. [07:54] <Ramon> (So not even stress)
  333. [07:54] <Baruch> because it's "weather", my major focus,
  334. [07:54] <CJR> OK, it's not magical. However as you rolled so high:it is supernatural. It is Divine.
  335. [07:54] <Baruch> Ok
  336. [07:55] <Silas_> (oh shi....)
  337. 01[07:55] <@Gustbran> (fuuuuuuuu)
  338. [07:55] <Silas_> (well, maybe, God is on our side)
  339. [07:55] <Silas_> (think about it guys!)
  340. [07:55] <Momo> (Runnnn for your lifeeee)
  341. [07:55] <Baruch> "This fog is not natural. It is God's work, or of his minions."
  342. [07:55] <Corbenik> (Oh shit the Divine is going to punish the excommunicated king)
  343. [07:55] <Momo> "Oh, guess we should go steal the other crown then."
  344. [07:55] <Corbenik> "... so this is a unfair fight?"
  345. [07:55] <Silas_> "Let us hope They favor us then"
  346. [07:55] <Ramon> "If I rember right this makes things for you mages also complicated?"
  347. [07:55] <Momo> "You know, in god's name"
  348. [07:55] <CJR> The fog has a Divine might of 25 for purposes of Magic Resistance. So Baruch can still see through it, as can Sedala I think, but diuspelling it very hard.
  349. [07:56] <Baruch> "It may, Ramon. We will see."
  350. 01[07:56] <@Gustbran> (shame aiden isn't here.)
  351. [07:56] <Ramon> (Ups then I dont know if Ramon see trough as it is only a item Dirk use)
  352. [07:56] <Ramon> (True Sight of Air)
  353. [07:57] <CJR> OK, where you landing? Can Sedala see through?
  354. [07:57] <Ramon> (but with no penetration bought)
  355. [07:58] <Ramon> (Sedala have Eyes of Bath permanet so sight efect dont hinder her)
  356. [07:58] <Baruch> "I would land at the market. They have other concerns than trade, right now, so I doubt we will be noticed."
  357. [07:58] <Silas_> "Should we sneak in, do you think, or charm us in? - both holds some risk" [to Baruch]
  358. [07:58] <Ramon> "yes I was planing for the Market also"
  359. [07:58] <CJR> (Yep just looked)
  360. [07:58] <Baruch> "Let's try to locate the king, first, Silas."
  361. [07:59] <CJR> While flying?
  362. [07:59] <Silas_> "I can't see anything from here though!"
  363. [07:59] <CJR> Baruch you can see, make a Per + Awareness
  364. [07:59] <Corbenik> Turns to Baruch "Most likely this is the work of the Invasion, though what you do is up for you to decide. I would strongly recommend that if there is any reason in your mind to delay the invasion now, that you delay them now as the ones who did this might be within the invasion. Not to mention once they are on land a storm won't do as much"
  365. [07:59] <Baruch> !roll 1d10+1
  366. [07:59] <Magic_Dice> Baruch: 2:1+1
  367. [07:59] <Baruch> !roll 1d10
  368. [07:59] <Magic_Dice> Baruch: 2
  369. [07:59] <Baruch> So 5 :(
  370. [07:59] <Baruch> Wait, my specialty is "weather" on that, so maybe 6 here
  371. [07:59] <Silas_> (such a grand chance :( )
  372. [07:59] <CJR> Baruch not only fails to see the king, he nearly has his head taken off by an inn sign as Sedala flies down the street. Luckily he ducks t ateh last moment
  373. 01[08:00] <@Gustbran> (lol)
  374. [08:00] <Baruch> (:)
  375. [08:00] <Corbenik> "Also be careful"
  376. [08:00] <Silas_> "Careful!"
  377. [08:00] <Ramon> (This sign is then very high up ^^)
  378. [08:00] <Momo> (Deadly medieval innsigh)
  379. [08:00] <CJR> However Baruch does notice the royal standard flying over the customs house tower tot the North of The Purfleet
  380. [08:00] <Momo> (And sharp)
  381. [08:00] <Baruch> "Corbenik, I don't think I can delay the invasion without putting us at substantial risk. I would rather try to get this over with without engaging the army at all."
  382. [08:00] <CJR> (see map)
  383. [08:01] <Momo> "Yes, turn invis and steal it"
  384. [08:01] <CJR> It's hard to judge altitude in this fog, though Sedal knows exactly what he is doing, so you are all safe enough
  385. [08:01] <Silas_> "Turning invisible is beyond me, I think.."
  386. [08:01] <Baruch> "I think I saw the royal standard! It's to the north of the harbor there" points
  387. [08:01] <Momo> "Or get a fishing pole and fish the crown out of his head!"
  388. [08:01] <Corbenik> "So be it, however they might be a part of those who seek to kill you, remember the monastery and all other things"
  389. [08:01] <Silas_> "Perhaps me alone, for a short time... but even so!"
  390. [08:01] <Ramon> "Should we limit our team going in as going all would maybe strain your magics to fare"
  391. [08:01] <CJR> Edith is scared and hanging on to Silas. "We are going to crash!"
  392. [08:02] <Baruch> "You may be right about that, Corbenik.
  393. [08:02] <CJR> The church bells continue to ring loudly
  394. [08:02] <CJR> YOu cna climb up out of the fog you think Sedala - it's only 200' high
  395. [08:02] <Corbenik> "Let's just hope I'm wrong then"
  396. [08:02] <Silas_> "We aren't my dearest, Sedala has done this a lot" [holds her tight]
  397. [08:02] <CJR> !roll 1d10
  398. [08:02] <Magic_Dice> CJR: 9
  399. [08:03] <Ramon> (CJ do my Sight of Air works from the Redcap? or are I'm also nearly blind from the fog)
  400. [08:03] <Momo> "Use your magic to find the kind or something."
  401. [08:03] <Momo> king*
  402. [08:03] <CJR> Sedala, incoming crossbow bolt.
  403. [08:03] <CJR> You are Size +4, so your defence is -8
  404. [08:03] <CJR> please make a defence roll
  405. [08:03] <Momo> (Good bye sedala)
  406. [08:03] <CJR> !roll 1d10+3 attack
  407. [08:03] <Magic_Dice> CJR, attack: 5:2+3
  408. 01[08:03] <@Gustbran> (NO!!)
  409. [08:03] <Silas_> (they shoot in the fog, the bastards! they could hit someone)
  410. [08:03] <CJR> (Lol at Silas!)
  411. [08:04] <CJR> Baruchj, whoever fired that has to have known exactly where oyu were.
  412. [08:04] <Silas_> (I'd be more worried about how Sedala will dodge really... with us all sitting on her back..)
  413. [08:04] <Corbenik> (They can shoot within the fog, not good)
  414. [08:04] <Ramon> !roll 1d10+1 (not included the extra size penalty)
  415. [08:04] <Magic_Dice> Ramon, (not included the extra size penalty): 6:5+1

  417. [08:05] <Momo> (RIP)
  418. [08:05] <Baruch> (She doesn't have any brawl or such?)
  419. [08:05] <Momo> (Horse? Brawl?)
  420. [08:05] <Baruch> (Well, yeah :D)
  421. 01[08:05] <@Gustbran> (won't size allow for more damage, though)
  422. [08:05] <Ramon> (btw do fast mover help?)
  423. 01[08:05] <@Gustbran> (?)
  424. [08:05] <Corbenik> (Yeah a kick from a horse is deadly)

  427. [08:06] <Momo> (Horse stand on two leg and box)
  428. [08:06] <CJR> OK, +1.
  429. [08:06] <CJR> Sedala still needs 5.
  430. [08:06] <Momo> (Still a -1 result then)
  431. [08:06] <CJR> Has Sedala got Confidence?
  432. [08:06] <Ramon> (Cant be helped she is hit -.-')
  433. [08:07] <Momo> (Got THREE condifdence?)
  434. [08:07] <Silas_> (can a horse have confidence?)
  435. [08:07] <Ramon> (No)
  436. [08:07] <Silas_> (That there is a confident horse!)
  437. [08:07] <Momo> (Magic char can)
  438. [08:07] <CJR> OK, 9 points damage. However who gets hit?

  466. [08:10] <CJR> OK, Gustbran just knocks the bolt off his breastplate
  467. [08:10] <Silas_> "What was that?!" [referring to whatever hit Gust]
  468. [08:10] <Baruch> (Also, do we get perception checks to see who shot us? I.e. the ones who can see in the fog)
  469. [08:10] <Corbenik> (wait you were more worried about yourself than Edith)
  470. 06[08:10] * @Gustbran is quite angry over this!
  471. [08:10] <Silas_> (Edith is a big girl :p )
  472. [08:10] <CJR> Gustbran can you make a Dex + Ride to stay on Sedala. You ned to beat a 3 as you are large?

  482. [08:12] <CJR> You are about 40' above the walls, and 60' above the ground
  483. [08:12] <CJR> Ramon, Baruch, made Perception + Awareness rolls

  493. 06[08:13] * Momo hop back into the bag
  494. [08:14] <Ramon> (Is not a bag its a basked Momo)
  495. [08:14] <Ramon> (that is fixed on the sadle)
  496. [08:14] <Silas_> (he could squeeze in there to sleep though ^^ )
  497. [08:15] <Silas_> (or.. flee..)
  498. [08:15] <CJR> OK Baruch, a young man with one green eye and one blue is watchingyou in amazement from the walls. He is now reloading his crossbow. It will take him another 14 rounds, but he can clearly see you!
  499. [08:15] <Baruch> Anyone else beside him?
  500. [08:15] <Ramon> (its open as there is the spear in and the crossbow ^^)
  501. [08:15] <Silas_> (its a flexible cat? ;p )
  502. [08:16] <Momo> (Of course)
  503. [08:16] <Silas_> (can it be right that invisibility can be gained by a difficulty of 5 if you are concentrating and only targeting yourself - also without moving?)
  504. [08:16] <CJR> Therre are two other men who look like they might actually know something about fighting near him. Both have partial chain, spears and shileds
  505. [08:16] <CJR> They look like regulars
  506. [08:16] <Silas_> (Base 4, +1 concentration)
  507. [08:17] <Ramon> (Do Ramon see them also with his roll of 8?)
  508. [08:17] <CJR> (yes that's right Silas)
  509. [08:18] <CJR> Nope, Ramon is concenrating on what lies ahead. BAruch scored higher by spending confidence
  510. [08:18] <Baruch> "Silas, that man sees us. Do you see those three? We need to put them to sleep. Can you give me a hand?"
  511. [08:18] <Ramon> (OK)
  512. [08:18] <Baruch> Can silas see them when I point them out, or is it too foggy?
  513. [08:18] <Silas_> (I am thinking I can't see through the fog?)
  514. 06[08:18] * @Gustbran looks in that direction also.
  515. [08:18] <CJR> Nope, too foggy
  516. [08:18] <Baruch> Also, are they too far for voice range?
  517. [08:19] <Silas_> "I can't see anything, sorry)
  518. [08:19] <Silas_> ""
  519. [08:19] <CJR> oNly Baruch Sedala and Ramon can
  520. [08:19] <CJR> You can fly back to voice range
  521. [08:19] <Silas_> (what was the see through air spell named again?)
  522. 01[08:19] <@Gustbran> (if only aiden was here. *sniffle*)
  523. [08:19] <Ramon> (Can sedala turn her head fare enough for a breat attack?)
  524. [08:19] <Baruch> (It's int auram 15 you can't spont it)
  525. [08:20] <Silas_> (ah, no, no chance)
  526. [08:20] <Baruch> Is it possible to land Sedala anywhere so that he doesn't have line of fire?
  527. [08:21] <CJR> Yes, almost anywhere.
  528. 01[08:21] <@Gustbran> (I'd really like to NOT get hit again!)
  529. [08:21] <CJR> (Yes Sedal acould fly back and breath attack)
  530. [08:21] <Ramon> (We need a larg enough place for awinged size 4 horse)
  531. [08:21] <Ramon> (No not fly back ^^)
  532. [08:21] <Baruch> "Take us down, quick, before he gets another shot. They won't believe when he says he saw a pegasus in the fog."
  533. [08:22] <Ramon> "Ok" To Sedala lets land behind a building betwean us and the attacker"
  534. [08:22] <CJR> ANy of the roads, and the Tuesday Market or Saturday Market, the docks, or the cloisters of the church)
  535. [08:23] <CJR> OK Sedala, you have landed on the waterfront, with the sea lapping the stone quay. There are two dozen little fishing boats bobbing about off shore, and a couple of big merchant cogs, perhaps from Flanders or Scandinavia
  536. [08:23] <Baruch> "Try for the market close to the harbor"
  537. [08:23] <Baruch> (Ok, scratch that)
  538. [08:23] <Ramon> "We go down behind a close building in a road for now"
  539. [08:23] <CJR> Behind you between you and the town are large three story brick warehouses
  540. [08:23] <Silas_> "We will be alright..." [murmurs to Edith]
  541. [08:24] <Momo> "What's the plan?" Momo peek out of the basket.
  542. [08:24] <CJR> Thye are between you and the corssbowman, and also you have the whole towns width between you
  543. [08:24] <Ramon> "Get as close as posible without be spoted again!"
  544. [08:24] <Baruch> "I saw the king's banner over there. Maybe the jewels are with him. Plan is, go there, get jewels, get out before army arrives."
  545. [08:24] <Silas_> "We have to find the king first.."
  546. [08:24] <CJR> The Divine Aura is 3 here - strong - so -9 to all casting rolls and Penetration on Magic Items
  547. [08:24] <Silas_> (damnit)
  548. [08:25] <Silas_> (Anyone fancy desecrating an alter or something? :p )
  549. [08:25] <CJR> OK chaps, is it ok I fi Take a 5 min break t grab a drink
  550. [08:25] <Ramon> Sedala feel clearly at unease of this place
  551. [08:25] <Baruch> Ok, 5min
  552. [08:25] <CJR> Then we can do the actual robbery attempt :)
  553. [08:25] <Corbenik> (Hmm can't remember do Divine Aura's have a special thing for faeries?
  554. [08:25] <Silas_> (5 min sounds fine)
  555. [08:25] <Ramon> (Magical Creature in a Divine Aura of 3 she definitve dont like it ^^)
  556. [08:26] <Momo> (It's like or don't like depends on the faerie)
  557. [08:26] <Momo> (mostly dislike because they are false and the light is true, but is an awesone light)
  558. [08:27] <Momo> (Won't the guy just sound the alarm and the whole army just swarm in?)
  559. [08:28] <Silas_> (the one who saw us?)
  560. [08:28] <Momo> (yeah)
  561. [08:28] <Corbenik> (And now there is a -9 to all spells)
  562. [08:28] <Silas_> (I don't think so, they got an army outside to keep them busy)
  563. [08:28] <Momo> (Well, it is war time)
  564. [08:28] <Baruch> (And he will probably say he saw a pegasus. Let's hope they don't buy that.)
  565. [08:29] <Baruch> (Probably won't cancel the wall's defense because of that even if they send someone to investigate.)
  566. [08:29] <Momo> (Palace guard/king's private guards or someone will come maybe)
  567. [08:29] <Silas_> (I saw a bunch of people, on a giant horse with wings landing in the town in the fog...)
  568. [08:29] <Baruch> (He's probably just a regular soldier who happens to have second sight.)
  569. [08:29] <Momo> (Gustbran level of stabbing power)
  570. [08:29] <Silas_> (over 9000?!?!)
  571. [08:29] <Momo> (You say it liek second sight is common)
  572. 01[08:29] <@Gustbran> (9001)
  573. [08:30] <Momo> (Yeah, my grog have second sight, is nothing special)
  574. 01[08:30] <@Gustbran> (he had two different colored eyes,)
  575. [08:30] <Silas_> (the -9 is really ruining the effect I had in mind though :p )
  576. [08:31] <Momo> (I am doubting the 'regular solider' part)
  577. 01[08:31] <@Gustbran> (I bet aiden probably could have dispelled this fog.)
  578. [08:31] <CJR> OK back now :)
  579. [08:31] <Ramon> (Yes and the -3 also means Ramon have to stay at sedala if he like it or not or else we risk to lose her on a loyality roll)
  580. [08:31] <Ramon> Wispering "Looks like I have to stay with Sedala, as she clearly dont like this place"
  581. [08:31] <Silas_> (was thinking a mix of Gandalf and Merlin intro when meeting the king,.. I am starting to think outright theift might be easier)
  582. [08:32] <Baruch> (Gus, yea, it's too bad you didn't take him. On the other hand, Aiden would probably have taken a big hit from the crossbow bolt :)
  583. [08:32] <Momo> (obviously, and we break less oath)
  584. [08:32] <Corbenik> (The main question is should we take edith with us to the middle of the Kings forces)
  585. [08:32] <Baruch> "Are you sure, Ramon? We could use the help, but of course we cannot risk losing Sedala."
  586. [08:32] <Momo> (Yes, Edith can protect Silas)
  587. 01[08:32] <@Gustbran> (if he had dispelled it, we would have seen the jerk before he had a chance to fire!)
  588. [08:33] <Ramon> "Yes I fear so as she clearly show she dont like this place"
  589. [08:33] <Corbenik> (That's true she did protect me)
  590. [08:33] <Silas_> (indeed, and she speaks English...)
  591. [08:33] <Corbenik> "Well she's not the only one, we should hurry"
  592. [08:33] <CJR> The mists wrpa round everything, muffling sound and making everything ghostly
  593. [08:33] <CJR> The bells continue to ring out, a maddening cacophony of sound
  594. [08:33] <Baruch> Once we land, I'll take everyone towards the banner I saw
  595. [08:33] <Momo> (I guess the bell is too loud to sound the alarm)
  596. [08:34] <Silas_> [mutters] damnable mist...
  597. [08:34] <CJR> OK, are you taking Sedala?
  598. [08:34] <CJR> Will need to shrink if you are...
  599. [08:34] <Momo> (You think all these are god way of telling us to just sneak in and steal it?)
  600. [08:34] <Baruch> (It's a god question - will hinder a quick escape if we do take him)
  601. [08:34] <Ramon> (Sorry CJ and others for puting me out of the main action but from Rollplaying I think I have to act this way)
  602. [08:34] <CJR> (You can take sedala?)
  603. [08:34] <Baruch> (You could bring him with us, though)
  604. [08:35] <Silas_> (no worries Ramon, play as you think you should)
  605. [08:35] <Corbenik> (No problem, that's roleplaying Ramon)
  606. [08:35] <Momo> (Pocket sedala)
  607. [08:35] <Silas_> (hehe)
  608. [08:35] <Momo> (Sedala is a pokemon)
  609. [08:35] <Ramon> (Momo you dont know how true this posibility is ^^)
  610. [08:35] <Momo> (That's my suggestion)
  611. 01[08:35] <@Gustbran> (a pocket monster. hehe)
  612. [08:36] <Baruch> (Do you want to take him or stay behind?)
  613. [08:36] <Momo> (someone invent a pocket ball already.)
  614. [08:36] <Silas_> (if all else fails Baruch can escape with the jewels, the rest of us might escape through other means :p )
  615. [08:36] <Ramon> (it would just take for ever and so its bether ramonstay with her ready for a escape)
  616. 01[08:36] <@Gustbran> (I agree)
  617. [08:36] <CJR> Okey doke.
  618. [08:36] <CJR> RAmon you stay on the waterfornt.
  619. [08:36] <CJR> Who is going?
  620. [08:37] <Baruch> Ok, Ramon stays behind with Sedala and the rest head for the banner, right?
  621. [08:37] <CJR> Okey doke.
  622. [08:37] <Ramon> (how fare can Sedala and I go with the others?)
  623. [08:37] <CJR> !roll 1d10
  624. [08:37] <Corbenik> "Edith your coming right?"
  625. [08:37] <Magic_Dice> CJR: 6
  626. [08:37] <Silas_> "Which way Baruch?"
  627. [08:37] <CJR> Edith says she will go with Silas
  628. [08:37] <Silas_> "Of cause she is"
  629. [08:37] <Momo> "Try not to scare people with your gift, mages."
  630. [08:37] <CJR> BAruch, you head south and find yourself in a small square
  631. [08:38] <Baruch> "The custom's house over in that direction"
  632. [08:38] <Ramon> (Can sedala and I follow till this pointß)
  633. [08:38] <CJR> The whole area is littered with crudely made wooden tables, planks on tree stumps
  634. [08:38] <Ramon> (Ok then not)
  635. 01[08:38] <@Gustbran> (probably a makeshift mess area)
  636. [08:38] <CJR> (yes Ramon)
  637. [08:38] <CJR> There seem to be --
  638. [08:39] <CJR> actually Percpetion + Folk Ken Baruch?
  639. [08:39] <Ramon> (Ok then Ramon stays at this place as it closer if we have to run)
  640. [08:39] <Baruch> !roll 1d10 (no rolk ken)
  641. [08:39] <Magic_Dice> Baruch, (no rolk ken): 2
  642. [08:39] <CJR> OKey doke.
  643. [08:39] <CJR> You have no idea what this was for
  644. [08:39] <Silas_> (Are mages aware of it when they are in a deeply divine aura or infernal or such?)
  645. [08:39] <CJR> Ramon and Sedal acan waith here though
  646. [08:40] <Silas_> (was asking since Silas might try something stupid but fancy :p )
  647. [08:41] <Ramon> (should ramon also roll for Folk Keen then?)
  648. [08:42] <CJR> (sure)
  649. [08:42] <CJR> (It's still 3 here Silas, so -9 to casting)
  650. [08:42] <Ramon> !roll 1d10+3 (+1 if Nobles)
  651. [08:42] <Magic_Dice> Ramon, (+1 if Nobles): 8:5+3
  652. [08:42] <CJR> OK, on the far side of the square you make out the stone tower with the royal banner flying over head. Two gaurds with poleaxes wait by the door
  653. [08:43] <Baruch> (Silas was trying to ask whether his _character_ knows about the -9 by default, which I think is "no"?)
  654. [08:43] <Silas_> (but would my mage know that he's in trouble or would he assume that things are the way they usually are?)
  655. [08:43] <CJR> RAmon, you would say that had been a huge feast here las night in the square
  656. [08:43] <CJR> Silas can tell he is in a Divine Aura.
  657. [08:43] <CJR> As such he knows thi sis risky :)
  658. [08:43] <Silas_> (ah ok)
  659. 06[08:43] * Momo following the group
  660. [08:44] <Baruch> "There it is."
  661. 06[08:44] * @Gustbran also follows.
  662. [08:44] <Ramon> wispering "Looks like they haved a larg feast her yesterday? "
  663. [08:44] <CJR> Momo, you cna slip about easily in this fog, completely normal looking
  664. [08:44] <Momo> (of course~)
  665. [08:44] <Momo> (Probably even the palace)
  666. [08:45] <Baruch> "Can you take a look at the tower for us, momo? See if we can get in from somewhere else - or even if the jewels are there or not"
  667. [08:45] <CJR> OK, you have found your tower. The guards seem restless, anxious even. They are pacing back and forth
  668. [08:45] <Silas_> (I'll try a spell if it is ok ^^)
  669. [08:45] <CJR> The door is slightly ajar
  670. [08:45] <Momo> "Sure, I will look for some hole to crawl in or window to jump intp"
  671. [08:45] <CJR> The dull glow of lamplight spills out in to the fog
  672. [08:45] <Baruch> "Thank you. We'll wait here. Be careful."
  673. [08:45] <CJR> Momo, the window is not shuttered.
  674. [08:46] <CJR> You cna easily jump up and see in
  675. 06[08:46] * Momo pick the easily way in
  676. [08:46] <Momo> easiest*
  677. [08:46] <CJR> (Momo: inside the tower is a large room. A group of men dressed as nobles are examining a map. There are four of them. A priest is nearby, quietly praying.
  678. [08:46] <CJR> Silas go for it. Spell?
  679. 06[08:47] * Ramon make his light crossbow ready
  680. [08:47] <CJR> Edith is watching out for people approaching fromelsewhere
  681. [08:47] <Silas_> (Was thinking Aura of rightful authority, but can I see the guards?)
  682. [08:47] <Baruch> (Silas, you need eye contact for that I think?)
  683. [08:47] <Silas_> (the fog, I think)
  684. [08:47] <CJR> Yes, they look a bit ghostly in the fog, but you cna see them.
  685. [08:48] <Momo> (Could one of them be the king?)
  686. [08:48] <Silas_> (ah right, I was thinking sight...)
  687. [08:48] <Baruch> (Not but it's range Eye, silas, meaning that you would have to have eye contact, not just see them.)
  688. [08:48] <Silas_> (darn..)
  689. [08:48] <Baruch> (Yeha, that lowers its usefulness quite a bit)
  690. [08:48] <Silas_> (a good plan B though..)
  691. [08:48] <Baruch> (yep. We can both cast it at the same time :D)
  692. [08:48] <CJR> Momo: the men are talking quietly, and seem apprehensive
  693. 06[08:49] * Silas_ sticks close to Edith while we are waiting for Momo
  694. [08:49] <CJR> Silas Per + Aware ness (hearing) Please
  695. [08:49] <CJR> RAmon you too
  696. 06[08:49] * Momo check the other room for the king
  697. [08:49] <Silas_> !roll 1d10+2
  698. [08:49] <Magic_Dice> Silas_: 8:6+2
  699. [08:50] <CJR> Momo, you would have to enter the room and go upstairs for that?
  700. [08:50] <CJR> Silas something is clattering towards the square
  701. [08:50] <Momo> I will sneak through them then
  702. [08:50] <CJR> Gustbran what you doing?
  703. [08:50] <Ramon> !roll 1d10+3
  704. [08:50] <Magic_Dice> Ramon: 4:1+3

  707. [08:50] <CJR> Yep Ramon

  713. [08:51] <CJR> OK Ramon, about six men, leading some eight horses towards the square.
  714. [08:51] <CJR> Big horses, war horses
  715. [08:51] <Momo> (so 7 I guess)
  716. [08:51] <CJR> !roll 1d10+2 noticing Momo
  717. [08:51] <Magic_Dice> CJR, noticing Momo: 11:9+2
  718. 01[08:51] <@Gustbran> (can I do a -3 area lore penalty roll for this area?)
  719. [08:51] <Ramon> Sedala and I try to get out of theyr way in a side road
  720. [08:52] <CJR> One of the nobles says "look, a cat has come in the window! At least he is not French!"
  721. [08:52] <CJR> OK, Ramon and Sedala slip down a road
  722. 06[08:52] * Momo makes a meow and keep moving.
  723. [08:52] <CJR> Make a Pre + charm
  724. [08:52] <Baruch> (You can't see through Creo fog with second sight, can you?)
  725. [08:52] <Silas_> (for some reason I always think of Momo's mews as a human would say it :p )
  726. [08:52] <Baruch> (Because it actually creates the fog and isn't an illusion - am I right?)
  727. [08:52] <Ramon> (Sorry I dont have ways to conact you to warn about this)
  728. [08:53] <CJR> (You can see the fog is magical, but not through it no)
  729. [08:53] <Momo> !roll 1d10+6 (+1 if grogs)

  738. [08:53] <Baruch> "Let us hide all"
  739. [08:53] <Baruch> I
  740. [08:53] <Momo> triple?
  741. [08:53] <Silas_> "Someone is coming, with horses" [low voice]
  742. [08:53] <CJR> The nobles all watch admiringly as momo proceeds upstairs
  743. 01[08:53] <@Gustbran> (I think it's quadruple)
  744. 06[08:53] * Corbenik lurking somewhere
  745. 01[08:54] <@Gustbran> (double a double)
  746. [08:54] <CJR> A council chamber has obviously recently been used. It s enpty of people
  747. [08:54] <Silas_> (any more space by Edith? :p )
  748. [08:54] <Baruch> I'll ask everyone to move to secluded place at the plaza, then cast creo fog around us
  749. [08:54] <CJR> The back of the room has casks of expensive trade goods
  750. [08:54] <CJR> the stirs lead up Momo
  751. [08:54] <CJR> Okey doke, roll Baruch
  752. [08:54] <CJR> stairs lead up Momo, sorry!
  753. [08:55] <Momo> Up up and momo goes!
  754. [08:55] <Baruch> !roll 1d10+31 (maluses from divine already deducted)
  755. [08:55] <Magic_Dice> Baruch, (maluses from divine already deducted): 40:9+31
  756. 01[08:55] <@Gustbran> (whoo!)
  757. [08:55] <Ramon> (a bit AFK making fresh Tea)
  758. [08:56] <CJR> OK describe your fog Baruch!
  759. [08:57] <Baruch> It's just seems like a thicker patch of fog like the one we are surrounded by - looks like the wind has just gathered a particular pocket of it there
  760. [08:57] <CJR> Momo, you reach a bedchamber. It is magnificently appointed, but has the look of having been only recently installed. The bed is unmade, the chamberpoyt underneath it fuull.
  761. [08:57] <Silas_> (the fog around here must soon be so dense that not even an arrow can piece it)
  762. [08:57] <Baruch> I'll let it cover a bit more than just us, as well, say that entire half of the plaza with that roll
  763. [08:57] <Momo> (A King's bedchamber?)
  764. [08:57] <CJR> A strange robe hangs on the back of the door. You glance at it (in modern terms it would be a dressing gown)
  765. [08:58] <CJR> (Yes, given you are a King, this is recognizable to you instally as a hastily put together King's bedchamber)
  766. 06[08:58] * Momo check the dressing gown for crown
  767. 01[08:58] <@Gustbran> (doubt it would be there)
  768. 01[08:58] <@Gustbran> (old crowns are way too big and heavy)
  769. [08:58] <CJR> Everyone hears the horses arrive at the tower. The nobles and the priest rush out, and mount up
  770. [08:59] <CJR> Only one remains in the tower.
  771. [08:59] <CJR> The gaurds also prepare to depart with the horsemen
  772. [08:59] <Baruch> Is there anything in sight that could hold the jewels? It's a lot of stuff, isnt' it?
  773. [08:59] <CJR> (Momo, nope not in the dressing gown. There is a small ball of sealing wax, and a cabbage leaf, but nothing else)
  774. [08:59] <Baruch> Like, a chest of treasure `? :D
  775. [08:59] <Silas_> "..."
  776. 06[09:00] * Momo look under the bed
  777. [09:00] <CJR> Looking round the room there are apir of well made shoes under the bed, and a model ship in a bottle on the table
  778. [09:00] <Baruch> (I was takling about outside - i.e. trying to make sure the departing nobles are not taking the jewels with them)
  779. [09:00] <Silas_> (score!, I always wanted well made shoes)
  780. [09:01] <Momo> (It probably king size)

  782. [09:01] <Silas_> (hehe)
  783. [09:01] <CJR> Baruch, nothing at all. They seem to be taking the clothes they stand in, nothing else
  784. [09:01] <Silas_> (tempting a cat, you have fallen low CJ :p )
  785. [09:01] <CJR> The noble who remains stands at the door and watches as they all leaves, then goes in and stirs the fiore
  786. [09:02] <Baruch> CJ, I'll cast whispering winds so I can hear what the nobles talk about
  787. [09:02] <Momo> (I have to roll the personality trait don't I :o)

  795. [09:02] <Silas_> (Momo has been amazingly luck with the personality rolls so far)
  796. [09:02] <Baruch> It was formulaic, so succesful
  797. [09:02] <CJR> Momo, you really need a nap!
  798. [09:03] <Silas_> (lucky*)
  799. [09:03] <Corbenik> (lolzies)

  816. [09:04] <CJR> Noble 1: It is enough. They left at dawn. The fishwife, what was her name?
  817. [09:05] <CJR> Noble 3: Fanny Burwell
  818. [09:05] <Ramon> (Grr why did I forget to ask for some form of Mental link or other distance comunication -.-)
  819. [09:05] <CJR> Noble 2: Yes Fanny said they can cross the Wellstream at three. They must be close to Torrington St Clements by now?"
  820. [09:06] <CJR> Noble 1: Well eh left at dawn. Who has the Jewels?
  821. [09:06] <Silas_> (yeees, who has them?! )
  822. [09:06] <Silas_> ( *cough* Gollum! *cough*)
  823. [09:06] <CJR> Noble 2; they divided them among the packs, but the King and William are the only ones to know they are on their persons
  824. [09:06] <CJR> Noble 3: And our men? Will tthey escape?
  825. [09:07] <Corbenik> (ugh who is William)
  826. [09:07] <CJR> Noble 1: Oh yes - the French and the Barons are at least two days march south, and do not even know we ar ein Lynn...
  827. [09:07] <CJR> They go roujnd the corner and out of range
  828. [09:07] <Silas_> (they are screwed...)
  829. [09:07] <Silas_> (in other words)
  830. [09:07] <Baruch> "It seems the King had fled this town with the jewwels"
  831. [09:08] <Corbenik> "Well then let us move"
  832. 06[09:08] * Silas_ climbs out from under the table
  833. [09:08] <Baruch> "They are close to someplace called Torrington St Clements"
  834. 06[09:08] * Silas_ helps Edith up
  835. [09:08] <Corbenik> "Edith do you know where this Torrington is?"
  836. [09:08] <Silas_> "Edith, do you know the place?"
  837. [09:08] <Silas_> (nm :p )
  838. [09:08] <CJR> Momo is missing...
  839. [09:08] <Baruch> "They are apparently divided into some sorts of packs, so possibly divided among the retinue"
  840. 01[09:09] <@Gustbran> (Do I know the place?)
  841. [09:09] <Momo> "Zzz"
  842. [09:09] <Corbenik> (It's a cat why do we care)

  846. [09:09] <Momo> (Five hours later, Momo walk out of the place, "guys? guys?)
  847. 01[09:09] <@Gustbran> (lol)
  848. [09:09] <CJR> Ramon, you hear the horseman pasing down a parallell street. They are riding fast now
  849. [09:09] <Baruch> "Splendid. We must get there at once. But first, we will have to recover Momo, I should say."
  850. [09:09] <Corbenik> "Gahh Gustbran what about you?"
  851. [09:10] <CJR> Gustbran, you hear footsteps approaching from across the square
  852. [09:10] <Baruch> Do I see anything?
  853. 06[09:10] * Ramon get back to the square as it easyer to avoid others there
  854. [09:10] <CJR> A crossbowman, with eyes of tewo different colours, walking slowly across the square
  855. [09:10] <Silas_> "It may be" [to Edith] "would you recognize it?" (Torrngton)
  856. [09:11] <CJR> (Edith to Silas: it's a crossing point between Lynn and Wisbech. Beyond that, no!"
  857. [09:11] <CJR> RAmon, you see the crossbowman
  858. [09:11] <Silas_> (We should recruit him! we need a good archer at our covenant...)
  859. [09:11] <Corbenik> (...)
  860. 06[09:11] * Ramon get back into iding but point with his Crosbow at him
  861. [09:11] <CJR> He si looking round carefully, but not seeing through your mist
  862. 01[09:11] <@Gustbran> (If/when I see that jerk I'm going to kill him)
  863. [09:12] <Baruch> I'll put the crossbowman to sleep
  864. [09:12] <Momo> (He will be out of job when the war is over)
  865. [09:12] <Baruch> Gus, you don't see him through my extrafog, alas :)
  866. [09:12] <CJR> OK, he moves past you all by a few feet, but makes his way down another road
  867. [09:12] <Baruch> Ah, ok, not in that case
  868. [09:12] <Baruch> let him wander about
  869. [09:12] <CJR> The noble inside goes upstairs, and finds Momo in the box.
  870. [09:12] <Silas_> (<- is halfway blind and shrouded in mist, I won't see him any time soon hehe)
  871. [09:12] <CJR> He pours him some cream, then goes up a ladder tot e tower roof
  872. [09:13] <Silas_> (such a nice noble)
  873. [09:13] <Momo> (Faerie tribute there)
  874. [09:13] <Baruch> "We must get Momo at once. No time to waste, we must catch the King!"
  875. [09:14] <Corbenik> "The cat, do you even know where he is?"
  876. [09:14] <Silas_> (I can't help but wonder how different this could have gone had Baruch and Silas been more... violence-inclined )
  877. [09:14] <Baruch> "Edith knows where the place they are in is now, but if they pass that by... who knows how to find them"
  878. [09:14] <Silas_> "Still inside, surely. Maybe he found a jewel and is getting it out"
  879. [09:14] <Corbenik> "Thats why we move now Magus"
  880. [09:15] <Baruch> "I doubt Makara would appreciate us leaving him here."
  881. [09:15] <Baruch> "And I doubt Momo would appreciate it either, really."
  882. [09:15] <Silas_> "The guards have left... Edith come with me please. We will get him"
  883. [09:15] <Baruch> "I doubt the tower is heavily guarded now that the king is no longer present."
  884. [09:15] <Baruch> "What do you intend to do, Silas?"
  885. [09:15] <Momo> "Zzz."
  886. [09:16] <Silas_> [to Edith] "If we meet anyone then tell them you are my translator and I am a priest", it may work
  887. [09:16] <Silas_> ""
  888. [09:16] <Silas_> [to Baruch] "Get him and get out, as easily as we can"
  889. [09:16] <Baruch> "Should we not simply put the guards to sleep?"
  890. [09:17] <Silas_> (the guards left though, didn't they?)
  891. [09:17] <Momo> (Can one personality trait overwrite another personality trait?)
  892. [09:17] <Corbenik> "Well I shall leave you to find him then and to figure out how to get him out." starts heading back towards Ramon
  893. 01[09:17] <@Gustbran> (only one guy there now)
  894. [09:17] <Baruch> Are the guards still theere, cj?
  895. [09:17] <CJR> No the guards left...
  896. [09:17] <CJR> (Yes Momo)
  897. [09:18] <Baruch> "Very well, do your best then, Silas!"
  898. 06[09:18] * Silas_ heads inside (hopefully with Edith following :p )
  899. [09:18] <Corbenik> (Watch as there is a knight in there)
  900. [09:18] <Momo> (Can Momo roll Interrupting personality against his Cat personality?)
  901. [09:18] <Silas_> (details, he wouldn't hurt a member of the cloth)
  902. [09:18] <Ramon> (Yes that what I will have at some point with Dirk as he probably can't avoid Hubris)
  903. [09:19] <CJR> Yes he can Momo
  904. [09:19] <Momo> Time to try and wake up
  905. [09:19] <Momo> got 10 for Cat last time I think

  934. [09:22] <CJR> Gustbran, there is a light on top of the tower. Someone is up there shining a lantern out to sea.
  935. 06[09:22] * Silas_ tries, as gently as possible, to lift Momo stroking the sleepy cat
  936. 01[09:22] <@Gustbran> "There's a light up there!"
  937. [09:22] <CJR> Ramon, some soldiers are marching along the waterfornyt, moving slowly and cautiously towards the tower.
  938. 06[09:22] * @Gustbran points!
  939. [09:23] <Corbenik> "Hmm he most be a traitor and is signalling the french"
  940. [09:23] <CJR> The lantern Gustbran points out is hooded, and is flashing a series of bursts out to sea...
  941. [09:23] <Corbenik> "Most likely guiding them"
  942. [09:23] <Baruch> Is it within voice range?
  943. [09:23] <CJR> OK Silas, you have a Momo
  944. [09:23] <CJR> (Yes Baruch, voice range)

  947. [09:24] <Silas_> "Let us get out then" [to Edith]
  948. [09:24] <Baruch> I'll create a creo fog around the top of the tower like the one we have down below
  949. 06[09:24] * Silas_ moves to head out to the rest of the gang

  955. [09:26] <Corbenik> "... are we leaving yet"
  956. [09:26] <Silas_> "Got him, he fell asleep in a chest"
  957. [09:26] <Baruch> "Let us get out of here at once."

  959. [09:27] <Momo> "zzz"
  960. [09:27] <Ramon> (They still have to move back to ramon bevore we can get out)
  961. [09:27] <Baruch> (Where is he? Aren't we still at the same plaza where he is?)
  962. [09:27] <Silas_> "I trust you can find Ramon in the fog Baruch?"
  963. [09:27] <Ramon> (thought its a different place sorry)
  964. [09:28] <Baruch> (I'm not sure either, but I thought it's the same one.)
  965. [09:28] <Baruch> (CJ?)
  966. [09:28] <Corbenik> CJR OK, you are all back together.

  976. [09:29] <Ramon> "Do you have the crown?"
  977. [09:29] <Baruch> I'll cast one final creo fog around Sedala as we leave, so the guy with second sight doesn't get another roll against us
  978. [09:29] <Silas_> "Looking for us?" [to Ramon]
  979. [09:29] <Baruch> I'll add a rego requisite so it moves with us

  995. 06[09:32] * @Gustbran has his sling ready just in case...
  996. [09:32] <CJR> You rise in to the skies over Bishop's Lynn (which has actually been renamed yesterday King's Lynn, hence the feast - but you never found that out!)
  997. [09:32] <Baruch> "Can you tell Ramon which way to go, Edith?"

  1039. [09:38] <Baruch> (Torrington st clemes)
  1040. [09:39] <Ramon> "So where do we have to go?"
  1041. [09:39] <Silas_> "You fell asleep" [places Momo on Sedala again]
  1042. [09:39] <Baruch> After we are clear of the city, I'll drop concentration on the creo fog (or diameter runs out, either way) and leave just the imaginem cloud on
  1043. [09:39] <Momo> "Is that so."
  1044. [09:39] <CJR> OK, you are clear, so everyone can see now.
  1045. [09:40] <CJR> (OK guys I need a quick break, onky a couple of minutes)
  1046. [09:40] <CJR> YOU plan how to getthere
  1047. [09:40] <Silas_> (kk)
  1048. [09:40] <Baruch> "Lead us to Torrington st Clemes, will you, Edith?"
  1049. 01[09:40] <@Gustbran> (ok)
  1050. [09:40] <Ramon> (KK)
  1051. [09:40] <Baruch> Ok
  1052. [09:40] <CJR> I want to try and finsih today if we can :)
  1053. [09:40] <Baruch> (Edith did mention she knew where it is, right?)
  1054. [09:40] <Momo> "Sounds like france land."
  1055. [09:40] <Silas_> (in rough terms)
  1056. [09:40] <Corbenik> (Partially, she has a rough idea apparently from her response)
  1057. [09:42] <Silas_> "How shall we get the jewels though? - I am fairly sure I can locate them if we find the king - but.."
  1058. [09:42] <Silas_> "But actually getting them.."
  1059. [09:42] <Corbenik> "Would the nobles be also heading to the place or somewhere else?"
  1060. [09:42] <Baruch> "I don't think that was apparent - I suspect they were simply fleeing."
  1061. [09:43] <Baruch> "If Edith doesn't know exactly, we may have to land and ask"
  1062. [09:43] <Silas_> "That might not be a problem either, as long as we can find someone local.."
  1063. [09:44] <Corbenik> "Remember the last time we landed..."
  1064. [09:44] <Silas_> "but the gems, how do we make a bid for them"
  1065. [09:44] <Silas_> "Villagers do not shoot at clouds"
  1066. [09:44] <Baruch> "My vote would be, again, to assess the situation and act on it."
  1067. [09:44] <Baruch> "Plans tend to be worthless if one does not know what one is up against."
  1068. 06[09:44] * Silas_ frowns a bit but bows his head

  1072. [09:45] <Baruch> (yea, probably not)
  1073. [09:46] <Corbenik> "Well we are facing the King's forces, the rebelling Barons' forces as they too most likely want the jewels, and the french would would as well take the jewels for themselves."
  1074. [09:46] <CJR> (OK CJ Back)
  1075. [09:47] <Ramon> (got a 7 on Area Lore Europe if Ramon heared about this location already)
  1076. [09:47] <Silas_> (if we need to find a local I can most likely get him to talk, charm and gentle gift - if Edith can't do it even better ^^)
  1077. [09:47] <Baruch> "How close can you get us to Torrington St Clemes, Edith?"
  1078. [09:47] <Corbenik> "Not to mention there maybe Maguses around who may try and capture you guys"
  1079. [09:47] <Baruch> "If we get close enough, perhaps we can spot them from the sky"
  1080. [09:48] <Baruch> "You are right, of course, Corbenik. I don't think the French know the king's whereabouts, however."
  1081. [09:48] <CJR> OK !roll 1d10+2 edith

  1085. [09:48] <Corbenik> "And thus they will try and be everywhere which is worse."
  1086. [09:48] <Baruch> "Before that, I would have us be back in our city of clouds."
  1087. [09:48] <CJR> Edith thinks Terrington to the west, back the ay you came
  1088. [09:49] <Baruch> "How sure are you about that, Edith? We can land and as if you are unsure."
  1089. [09:49] <Ramon> "OK then lead the direction Edith as I never heared about this location"
  1090. [09:49] <CJR> Edith: "I'm guessing!"
  1091. [09:50] <Ramon> "Don't have you mages some way to divine where the item is what we are looking for?"
  1092. [09:50] <Silas_> "Would you suggest we ask someone dear?"
  1093. [09:50] <Momo> "Yeah, mages, do your thing."
  1094. [09:51] <Baruch> "I am not proficient with such magics, unfortunately."
  1095. [09:51] <Momo> "Ask the wind where the king is or something"
  1096. [09:51] <Silas_> "I can find them, I think, but I need to see the king"
  1097. [09:52] <Baruch> "Well, that does not help. We must land and ask the locals, I am afraid."
  1098. [09:52] <CJR> (If you had an Arcane Connection it would be InCo20)
  1099. [09:52] <Baruch> "If Edith is simply guessing, we don't have alternatives, I am afraid. We cannot take the chance."
  1100. [09:52] <Ramon> (Not InTe as it is Metal?)
  1101. [09:52] <Silas_> (sponting it would be well beyon me though)
  1102. [09:53] <CJR> There is a man and a women far below you, apparently shovelling mud
  1103. [09:53] <Baruch> "Let's try to be quick about this."
  1104. 01[09:53] <@Gustbran> (can I do an area lore roll at penalty?)
  1105. [09:53] <CJR> They look like peasants

  1114. 01[09:54] <@Gustbran> (I already included the penalty)
  1115. 01[09:54] <@Gustbran> (so 7)
  1116. [09:54] <CJR> Gustbran knows what Edith said. Terrington is to est, a crossing point over the rivers
  1117. [09:54] <CJR> It is only fordable at low tides
  1118. [09:54] <CJR> He knows it is not far, so you should be able to find it
  1119. [09:54] <CJR> Roughly this
  1120. [09:54] <Baruch> "Ok, that is certain enough. Let us do this."
  1121. [09:55] <Ramon> "OK if Gustbran and Edith say so then its bether then asking a simple peasant"

  1126. [09:56] <CJR> Yes, but ther eis one on the Atlas Forum I think. I'll do one on our forum)
  1127. [09:56] <CJR> You know where ot head

  1131. [09:57] <Ramon> (How is the weater?)
  1132. [09:57] <CJR> The village is along a street, with the stone church at one end, a few prosperous merchants houses, and lot of putlying farms
  1133. [09:57] <Ramon> (is it raining as it is mostly in England?)
  1134. [09:58] <Silas_> (only when it isn't foggy :p )
  1135. [09:58] <CJR> no just foggy today
  1136. [09:58] <CJR> As you come closer you see ther eis a small inn, and the village appears very propserous
  1137. [09:58] <CJR> ther ei s patchwaork of fields, and it clear the land is drained, with dikes holding the polder intact from the marshes
  1138. [09:58] <Baruch> Any signs of kingliness?

  1159. [10:01] <Ramon> (except it was no Stress die)
  1160. [10:01] <CJR> True, not stressful
  1161. [10:01] <CJR> Baruch you hear the following
  1162. [10:02] <CJR> King John: "Fanny, you say we can cross safely?"
  1163. 01[10:02] <@Gustbran> (!)
  1164. [10:02] <CJR> Fanny" "Yes, I think so. the tidfe turned and we are closing in on low tide"
  1165. [10:02] <CJR> "Walo: The Lord will preserve us!"
  1166. [10:03] <Silas_> (Gust, if you kill anyone, the do Walo :p )
  1167. [10:03] <CJR> King John (under his breath ("pious little shitbag!")
  1168. [10:03] <Silas_> (then* )
  1169. 01[10:03] <@Gustbran> (no guarantees)
  1170. [10:03] <Baruch> (How many of them in the retinue altogether?)
  1171. [10:03] <CJR> King John: Yes good, Legate, he will, he will...
  1172. [10:03] <Silas_> (even PJ agrees with me)
  1173. [10:03] <Silas_> (sorry, KJ now, I suppose)
  1174. [10:04] <Corbenik> (We will need to kill/intimidate the horses before we can really deal with the people)
  1175. [10:04] <CJR> There is what appears to a middle aged nun, a young attractive nioblewoman, an elderly knight, King John, a high ranking cleric, and then a mercenary and a elderly fishwife
  1176. [10:04] <CJR> Fanny is the fishwife
  1177. [10:04] <CJR> Walo the cleric
  1178. [10:04] <Corbenik> King John is the King
  1179. [10:04] <CJR> William "Ride like hell then, for the Frenchwill be here soon and this is now joust!"
  1180. [10:04] <CJR> King John "Well spoken brave Marshal! Let us ride"
  1181. [10:05] <Ramon> Wisper "do we intercept them now or follow in hope the frence dont reach them?"
  1182. [10:05] <CJR> Fanny: "wait for me!" (as her donkey soon drops behind)
  1183. [10:05] <CJR> The Elderly nun and Fanny Burwell the fishwiofe are on donkeys, and lagging behind the others who have sputrrred towards the crossing a mile off
  1184. [10:05] <Momo> Wisper: "I say we do it now"
  1185. [10:05] <Corbenik> Whisper "I suggest we follow them, till they stop for another rest, that way they are off of their horses"
  1186. [10:06] <Momo> Whisper "What if their boat sink and the crown fall into the sea!?"
  1187. 06[10:06] * @Gustbran nods in agreement.
  1188. [10:06] <Ramon> (We are still out of the reang they can hear us and we can hear them except baruch)
  1189. [10:06] <Silas_> "If the French reach them, then we might have to deal with both.."
  1190. [10:06] <Corbenik> Whisper "Then we throw you into the sea for not catching it before it fell"
  1191. [10:07] <Momo> Whisper: "Yeah, now they are weak, we are in a good position"
  1192. [10:07] <Corbenik> "Well we don't have to kill the King Personally we only need his jewels"
  1193. 01[10:07] <@Gustbran> (heh, his familiy jewels...)
  1194. [10:07] <Momo> "He might give it up if he believe we can restore his rights"
  1195. [10:07] <Baruch> (CJ: How hard would it be to rego the river into flowing too fast to make the french unable to ford it? Is base 4 "control liquid in a forceful way" enough? Do I need size boni?)
  1196. [10:07] <Silas_> (the jewels of his country, really..)
  1197. 01[10:08] <@Gustbran> (look up how related the european royalty is. You might as well say they're all extended family)
  1198. [10:08] <Momo> "Don't forget we have a week to do this, who knows how long they will be on the river"
  1199. [10:09] <Baruch> ("Forceful but calm way, such as a fast but constant current" is the base 4 description
  1200. 01[10:09] <@Gustbran> "I think we shouldn't wait until the last second though,"
  1201. [10:09] <Momo> "Our covenant is probably half flipped by now."
  1202. [10:09] <Momo> "Think of the falling kittens!"
  1203. [10:10] <CJR> Yes, base is a pond. I'd say +1 magnitude to effect just the water over the ford?
  1204. [10:10] <Momo> "And human babies."
  1205. 06[10:10] * @Gustbran thinks of falling momo
  1206. [10:10] <Corbenik> "Well how do you plan on engaging them when they are on horses?"
  1207. [10:10] <CJR> (lol at Momo)
  1208. [10:10] <Silas_> [to Momo] "don't think like that"
  1209. [10:10] <CJR> OK< they are approaching the ford. It's a long way across, and the water has not quite receded enough to shw the ford yet.
  1210. [10:10] <Momo> "Then go go go engage them now~~"
  1211. [10:10] <Ramon> "I agre best lets wait till they rest even if that means we reach dusk bevore.
  1212. [10:11] <CJR> King John and William are charging out ahead
  1213. [10:11] <CJR> This is where The Wash comes sweeping in to the Fens. The tide is going out right now.
  1214. [10:11] <Momo> "Oh you all will regret this."
  1215. [10:11] <Corbenik> "Baruch this is your call"
  1216. [10:11] <Baruch> "Me and Silas might be able to put them to sleep. I think this might be safest. But that still leaves the French."
  1217. [10:12] <CJR> Fanny and The Mother superior are far behind on their donkeys, and Fanny si shouting something after the King and gesturing wildly
  1218. [10:12] <Corbenik> "Well can't you just start another storm like you did on the City to stop them?"
  1219. [10:12] <Baruch> "Does anyone have any idea how we might get the French off their trail?"
  1220. [10:12] <Baruch> "I could kill them, certainly. I would rather not."
  1221. [10:12] <Momo> "Eh... magic?"
  1222. [10:12] <Silas_> (CJ, the king is making his way now that the time is withdrawing, right?)
  1223. 01[10:12] <@Gustbran> "maybe make a false set of horse tracks?"
  1224. [10:12] <Silas_> (tide* rather)
  1225. [10:13] <Momo> "Illusion and false tracks"
  1226. [10:13] <Momo> "Giant monster blocking the road"
  1227. [10:13] <Ramon> "Cant you use the Weater in some way to stop the french for some time?"
  1228. [10:13] <Momo> "You name it"
  1229. [10:13] <Momo> "It stopped the drake before."
  1230. [10:13] <CJR> The King is trying to get across, but the water is still high...
  1231. [10:14] <Corbenik> "You could make a fog wall between the King and the french"
  1232. 01[10:14] <@Gustbran> (maybe you guys can make me giant size, and I can toy with them by intimidation.)
  1233. [10:14] <Ramon> "Making the path behind the king Muddy is a other way"
  1234. [10:15] <Ramon> "Anyway I load my light crossbow again just in case"
  1235. [10:15] <CJR> The Wellstream is running hard in to The Wash, and the King and his retinue must de desperate to plan to make the attempt to drive their horses across
  1236. [10:16] <Baruch> CJ: I'll try to Rego the stream to quiet down as much as I can
  1237. [10:16] <CJR> The French are still 15 minutes behind...
  1238. [10:16] <CJR> Cool, Baruch, make a roll :)

  1249. [10:18] <CJR> OK so 12. With +2 for sight amdf +1 for size, no effect?
  1250. [10:19] <CJR> OK, actions please?

  1252. [10:19] <Baruch> (But I could just do it around the king, right? So no size modifier necessary)
  1253. [10:19] <CJR> Okey doke, noted.

  1685. [11:11] <Momo> (Nah, he is blood sacrifice)
  1686. [11:11] <Corbenik> (A little bit of water never hurt anyone :P )

  1690. [11:12] <Momo> (any will work)
  1691. [11:12] <CJR> (William Marshal is one of the hardest characters to stat, but I did it for an Ars book. He is ridiculous, but real, which makes it much harder.)
  1692. [11:12] <Silas_> (being under water might not be the worst way to weather the storm..)
  1693. [11:12] <Baruch> (Two bags are counted for, now, and two are on the other shore. So two should be in the river, correct?)
  1694. [11:12] <Corbenik> (DAMN you CJR I might challenge him to a duel should I know his rep)
  1695. [11:12] <Baruch> (But I think Gus should probably worry about surviing now ;:)
  1696. [11:12] <CJR> One with each person. Kings i removed. One on Williams horse still there
  1697. [11:13] <CJR> (Corbenik, possibly not simply because you live on the city. Otherwise you would definitiely)
  1698. [11:13] <Silas_> (noone cares for the king anymore)
  1699. [11:13] <Baruch> (Yea, he's working some doom magics by himself.)
  1700. [11:13] <Baruch> (What do yo udo, Gus?)
  1701. [11:13] <Corbenik> (Yeah, lets just hope Gustbran doesn't die and Edith doesn't say anything)
  1702. [11:14] <Corbenik> does die
  1703. 01[11:14] <@Gustbran> (If I can get to william I'm gonna try to get to him, if not, I'm gonna try and take the jewel that fell by me and brace for the worst)
  1704. [11:14] <Silas_> (lol)
  1705. [11:14] <CJR> OK finding the jewel the easier option. Which you wnat to try?
