  1.  
  2. [8:39 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alright, then.
  3. [8:41 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The time you spent in the Infinite Library was fruitful, and you've obtained information that could possibly decide the outcome of your fate here. Alicia also managed to recover her lost memories, and the party has made a future contact in the form of Sariel, a Keeper of the library. After a week of freedom from the nightmare, during which you are to have peaceful, dreamless sleep in the real life, you can prepare further for what is to come.
  4. [8:42 PM] Mizuki: ( @Tenrei @Faerie @Bot Fodder )
  5. [8:42 PM] Eon: (Mmm. Err. How do we get back grom here)
  6. [8:43 PM] Eon: (We kind of broke the feather to get here :thinking: )
  7. [8:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... That said, before you depart from the Infinite Library, you might wish to share your equipment, loot, whatever, and to make plans on your preparation.
  8. [8:43 PM] Mizuki: (also... I didn't have the time to pick up the 3 new spells)(edited)
  9. [8:44 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Yep. Perform your logistics.
  10. [8:44 PM] Mizuki: (i-it might take a while)
  11. NEW MESSAGES
  12. [8:45 PM] Eon: (I'll swap some spells too)
  13.  
  14.  
  15. [8:47 PM] Eon: (done on my end.)
  16. [8:48 PM] Mizuki: (for now I'll just write down scorching ray, I really need a level 2 damaging spell...)
  17. [8:49 PM] Mizuki: (I'll think about the others later, if that's okay)(edited)
  18. [8:49 PM] Runic: (Alright, gonna roll for more hp since I still haven't done that since Lexon leveled up to 7)
  19. [8:49 PM] Runic: roll 1d8+2
  20. [8:49 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d8+2]: 5, Result: 7
  21. [8:50 PM] Eon: (got average result anyway :^))
  22. [8:50 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Average.
  23. [8:50 PM] Runic: (Alright average is fine)
  24. [8:50 PM] Faerie: (Hello)
  25. [8:50 PM] Faerie: (Mizu, it's your call, but do you really need more fire damage?)
  26. [8:51 PM] Eon: (he can swap elements, can't he?)
  27. [8:51 PM] Eon: (also, the world must burn etcera etcera)
  28. [8:51 PM] Faerie: (Who am I kidding, of course you do.
  29. Yeah, but damage spells are iffy since there's already Fireball. Just choose carefully!)
  30. [8:52 PM] Mizuki: (I have all the elements now :smugpopo:)
  31. [8:52 PM] Mizuki: (and I want scorching ray because I don't have anything single targed that deals decent damage)
  32. [8:52 PM] Mizuki: (only magic missile, but it isn't decent damage :sadpopo:)
  33. [8:53 PM] Eon: (alright, are we leaving straight after logistics?)
  34. [8:53 PM] Eon: (Esker has zero gear to speak off ;-;)
  35. [8:53 PM] Mizuki: (we had a long rest, right?)
  36. [8:53 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: You are able to spend some time in conversation if you need,
  37. [8:53 PM] Faerie: (Just in case it matters, here's my junk: http://puu.sh/vPmtX/74eb5b68dd.png
  38. I am contractually obligued to share anything someone else might need)
  39.  
  40. [8:53 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: or if anyone wishes to do anything, it's fine
  41. [8:54 PM] Mizuki: (I'm recovering my spells and item charges then, and swapping searing smite for scorching ray on the prepared spells)
  42. [8:54 PM] Faerie: (Not pictured is chainmail, but I don't think anyone else would need it)
  43. [8:55 PM] Eon: (ah, I guess I do have a stick that heals people.)
  44. [8:55 PM] Faerie: (Did anyone look at the new downtime activities UA?)
  45. [8:55 PM] Eon: (oh snap.)
  46. [8:56 PM] Eon: (the phb downtime activities are kinda eh too)
  47. [8:58 PM] Eon: (so, recap time, we already got the infor from the level 4 clearance about the dream demon and the related stuff?)
  48. [8:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Yep. They just aren't... written, yet.
  49. [8:58 PM] Faerie: (But that's already 'resolved', right?)
  50. [8:59 PM] Mizuki: (well, while in the real world I'll create a spell storing bullet...)
  51. [8:59 PM] Faerie: (We can just roll with placeholder if so, I think)
  52. [8:59 PM] Mizuki: (fireball again)
  53. [9:01 PM] Faerie: (Reminder that you can create a bullet after a long rest now too)
  54.  
  55. [9:01 PM] Eon: (I guess I can't really think of anything fruitful to do still in the library)
  56. [9:01 PM] Eon: (unless you want to get dunked by Sariel)
  57. [9:03 PM] Mizuki: Alicia wrote a few notes from the book about the coin and closed it. They might be useful one day, she thought.(edited)
  58. [9:04 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Certainly.
  59.  
  60. [9:05 PM] Mizuki: After putting the book back in it's place, she called everyone and explained what she found out. - "Pretty interesting, huh?"
  61. [9:06 PM] Tenrei: Kirie returns after browsing the library!
  62. [9:06 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: To exit the Infinite Library - well, in the first place, you have a limited amount of time that you are able to spend here. When the time is done, you will be able to "wake up". You can likely request to leave early - but it's unlikely you have any significant amount of time left here. Best to take care of any unfinished businesses here.
  63. [9:07 PM] Faerie: (Are we aware of the week-long vacation that comes after?)
  64. [9:07 PM] Eon: "Hey Sariel, this is a library right? Do we get to borrow stuff?"
  65. [9:07 PM] Runic: (Oh I forgot I had some downtime stuff Lexon has)
  66. [9:08 PM] Runic: (It's two superior potions and a roll for the amount of doses of drow poision if I'm reading this right?)
  67. [9:08 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Mostly. The magic - Curse, even - that bind you to the demon's stomach remains still, but the demon itself is weakened significantly so, that it is unable to manifest a meaningful nightmare for a duration.
  68. [9:08 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "A week" is a guesstimate at best, but it should be around that.
  69. [9:08 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Yep, Lexon.
  70. [9:09 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Sariel nod his head. "In exchange for a payment, in knowledge."
  71. [9:09 PM] Faerie: Fascinating. Were this an ideal sitation, nobody in the party would ever see each other again
  72. [9:09 PM] Eon: Esker blinked. She didn't have anything worth sharing! ;-;
  73. [9:09 PM] Runic: roll 1d4 drow poison
  74. [9:09 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d4]: 1, Result: 1
  75. [9:10 PM] Runic: (welp, got one chance to use it)
  76. [9:10 PM] Faerie: (Spymaster's gotta get her secrets to herself, huh?)
  77. [9:10 PM] Eon: (She was a pretty terrible spy, to be fair!)
  78. [9:13 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "A story is worth the lending of a collection of stories, a new spell is worth the lending of several - ones that the library have copy of." Sariel goes on to explain, "The return policy is a lending period of one decade, after which the material in question will automatically be returned. Of course, you are more than welcomed to return the work at an earlier date, or deep the borrowed material sealed against planar interference... In the latter case, there will be collectors."(edited)
  79. [9:13 PM] Faerie: Razmik'd bring up the opportunity to do some independant research on the outside (looking at you, Alicia), but that'd be sure to pale in comparison to what they had already learned. About everything, not just the dream eater.
  80.  
  81. [9:14 PM] Tenrei: "Just the books are taken back? Not the knowledge itself, right?" Kirie asks.(edited)
  82. [9:15 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Just the books - of which are a copy of the real text." Sariel nods. "Some works are warded against duplication, such as cursed tomes or ones with beings dwelling within them. Those works are unavailable for lending out, and should only be read within the library."
  83. [9:16 PM] Tenrei: "If you copy them why do you need them back?"
  84. [9:17 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "It's the library policy..." Sariel speaks. "... And we only have a limited amount of copies of all texts. If everyone borrows the copies out, there would be none left for others, or for emergencies."
  85. [9:18 PM] Mizuki: (oh shit Koga, I need to pay to copy new spells right?)
  86. [9:18 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... At which point, we often send collectors out, or convey the request via the more local members of the deities that are involved in the Library."
  87. [9:18 PM] Mizuki: (and to transcribe my old spells to the new spellbook)
  88. [9:18 PM] Tenrei: Kirie nods, almost painfully slowly.
  89. [9:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Copying new spells normally does. In this case... The old spellbook merge into the new one.)
  90. [9:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (The copies of the new spells are provided for by the library otherwise. Or rather, by Sariel.)
  91. [9:19 PM] Mizuki: (Oh, then cool)
  92. [9:22 PM] Faerie: ''What do you all think happens next, now? Back to the Room?'', Razmik asks the group.
  93. [9:22 PM] Tenrei: "I'm ready to go back."
  94. [9:22 PM] Eon: "I guess, we don't have much left to do here, or much time even, I feel." Esker turns towards Raz
  95. [9:23 PM] Mizuki: "Me too." - Said Alicia - "Guess we won't be seeing each other for a while, huh? Thanks again... For everything you guys did for me."
  96. [9:24 PM] Faerie: Maybe he missed the memo, but Razmik wonders how Alicia knew that. If she said so...
  97. [9:24 PM] Mizuki: (she knows because the gm said so!)
  98. [9:24 PM] Faerie: He finds himself saying something rather... strange. ''Hopefully it won't be long; that'd be a damn shame.''
  99. [9:24 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: After your business are done in the infinite library, you are able to wake up, finally, and tend to your daily life, and have a week of holiday. Perhaps doing some work, or finding contacts, or perhaps doing some research or purchasing goods. You are able to meet up in the real world as well, if you belong to the same Material Plane and are located somewhat close to each other, physically.
  100. [9:25 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The finer detail of that is up to you, individually.
  101. [9:25 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle and Shadow... Well.
  102. [9:25 PM] Faerie: (PM @Mizuki for hot, steamy 1v1 duels)
  103. [9:26 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle will request for another pistol from Alicia, when possible, while Shadow doesn't seem to have much want or need, and spends time with Tot and the other residents of the ornated room, including Nephelle and Recelle.
  104. [9:27 PM] Faerie: Razmik'll spend most of it tending to his duties; religious service came with the package. Some of it includes helping feed peopel at the temple, even. It's a rather large place.
  105. [9:27 PM] Mizuki: While in the real world, Alicia will do some mercenary work, make some cash and meet her old friends.
  106. [9:28 PM] Mizuki: (is that okay?)
  107. [9:28 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Yep, that's fine.
  108. [9:29 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: While you are unable to bring the wyverns out with you from the nightmare, you are able to bring things into the nightmare for them - not that you are able to afford much in term of exotic animal barding.
  109. [9:29 PM] Eon: Esker will attempt to use her contacts from her previous career to try and find out if the rest of the party existed on her Material Plane and if they were close.
  110. [9:29 PM] Eon: (Is that legal?)
  111. [9:29 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (It'll be up to the other players to decide if they are or not)
  112. [9:30 PM] Mizuki: (I want to be!)
  113. [9:30 PM] Faerie: On that same note, he'll ask around in case anyone he knows can make heads of what the group's recently learned. His brothers and sisters had started to regard him a bit differently, as well. That was strange: ''Crusader'' was more of an honorary rank, he thought. It was almost as if he had skipped a part of the corporate ladder.
  114. [9:30 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Strangely, I am actually not designing your Prime Material Plane for you, as long as you keep it reasonable. SEtting should be fantasy with technology level of mediveal or earlier.)
  115.  
  116. [9:34 PM] Faerie: (Has Razmik earned one of the titles the non-baby clergy use, like Dawnbringer/greeter/whatever?)
  117. [9:34 PM] Tenrei: (Raz and Kirie both have Forgotten Realm deities I think? So barring shenanigans they'd probably be on the same plane)
  118. [9:34 PM] Faerie: (I should read the damn FR novels :sadpopo:)(edited)
  119. [9:35 PM] Runic: In Lexon's world, he goes back to working at the mines under his uncle, earning coin for time at the local taverns and spending the rest of it on expanding his dart collection
  120. [9:35 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Due to the cosmology, there are complications. Waterdeep, for example, might be a place that you've "heard of, but don't know where it is on the map" - as it doesn't exist.
  121. [9:36 PM] Faerie: (Yup, FR. Weirdly enough, some people in the Realms DO go deityless, but we don't talk about that in family-friendly adventures like this one)
  122. [9:36 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: You could be from Faerun proper, or a fragment of it - or you can be located at Kara-tur or something, maybe?
  123. [9:36 PM] Faerie: (''But my character is totally drinking buddies with Elminster!'')(edited)
  124. [9:37 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: In any case - refer to the pinned document on your downtime benefits, and if there's anything specific that you may wish to do.
  125. [9:38 PM] Mizuki: (also, why does Recelle want me to craft another pistol? I gave it to her)(edited)
  126. [9:38 PM] Faerie: (Oh, religious service is part of the downtime activities thing. But I don't mind how that's resolved, if at all. I imagine a week full of nothing is a welcome change of pace here)
  127. [9:38 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (That's up to you!)
  128. [9:39 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle mentions something about "backup" and "trying out dual-wield", but she isn't entirely sure.
  129. [9:39 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: She doesn't require it, and would just prefer it.
  130. [9:39 PM] Eon: ( :thinking: reloading with dual wield)
  131. [9:39 PM] Eon: (is she going to drop the pistol on the ground and just pull out another pair? :smugpopo: )
  132. [9:40 PM] Mizuki: (DOOL WEELD)
  133. [9:40 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (In game rule, you can't fire a weapon with Loading property more than once per round)
  134. [9:40 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (So it kills Extra Attack from Fighter unless they have two of them)
  135. [9:41 PM] Mizuki: Alicia will craft Recelle another pistol, if she makes enough money.
  136. [9:41 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Or feat that ignores loading property)
  137. [9:41 PM] Faerie: (Gundalf.png)
  138. [9:41 PM] Mizuki: Obviously she's also spending money on drinks and food with her mercenary friends
  139. [9:41 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Your expenses for that is covered, of course, since you are Practicing a Profession :sadpopo:
  140. [9:42 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Some of them become rather interested in the new kind of weapon - it's catching on locally. Some are also asking you, Alicia, on the general working of firearms and possibly to further develop or reverse engineer it.
  141. [9:43 PM] Faerie: (Here it says ''You are expected to perform the usual training, prayers, and meditation, especially to monitor the effects that the nightmare have on you. This is treated as Practicing a Profession Downtime Activity.'', so that's what I'd like to have Raz do, as stated. Be it known that he's not mooching :sadpopo:)
  142. [9:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Sure he isn't)
  143. [9:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: When everyone's done and resolved with their downtime, or if there's nobody that isn't ready,
  144. [9:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: we'll proceed to the next scene.
  145.  
  146. [9:44 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (So, if you missed some key point... :smugpopo: )
  147. [9:44 PM] Mizuki: (I'm not sure if I wanna bring firearms to my plane!)
  148. [9:44 PM] Faerie: (I'm ready, if that's it)
  149. [9:44 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: And if there's anyone that isn't ready, let me know. The joy of adventuring in another plane of existance is that your foil often won't be able to chase you across dreams and nightmares.
  150. [9:45 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Foil, as in the UA-Downtime foil)
  151. [9:45 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: I'll wait for 5 minutes before proceeding, then.
  152. [9:46 PM] Mizuki: Alicia will gladly teach her close friends about firearms, asking them to keep it a secret for now.
  153. [9:46 PM] Mizuki: (I'm ready to go)
  154. [9:46 PM] Runic: Lexon brings a couple bottles of mead from the real world, 5 to be exact
  155. [9:46 PM] Runic: (And with that I'm ready)
  156. [9:47 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The firearms, a noteable deviance from normal development that involve alchemy, pushes the wheel of progress with just a slight tilt in the axis...
  157. [9:47 PM] Tenrei: (Looking at the options..)
  158. [9:47 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... but for now, that's nothing you should worry about, Alicia.
  159. [9:47 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Alright, Tenten :happypopo: )
  160. [9:48 PM] Tenrei: (Does money transfer between worlds?)
  161. [9:49 PM] Tenrei: (How do we pay for these)
  162. [9:49 PM] Faerie: Razmik's losing his goddamn mind over the prospect of /getting to sleep properly/, like actual, non-nightmare bound people do. Sudden pangs of worry are there to remind him what he's had to do to earn that rest, though. He doesn't slack off.
  163. [9:50 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Material goods can be carried in and out of the nightmare - tales of people becoming suddenly rich in the past few decades, for example, might be caused by this. (Or unrelated event).
  164. [9:50 PM] Faerie: (Nigerian nightmare princes)
  165. [9:50 PM] Tenrei: (That said I don't think I've gotten any money :sadpopo: )(edited)
  166. [9:51 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: There are some adventurers that might've seen explosive growth in experience and the like, which may or may not be related to current event as well.
  167. [9:51 PM] Faerie: (Ah, yes. Yes. I wanna make another cake, do I have to roll for cake quality?)
  168. [9:51 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: With Gourmand... No, no worries, Fae. :sadpopo:
  169. [9:51 PM] Faerie: (Yeeeeeah.)
  170. [9:51 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Unless you wish to :sadpopo:
  171.  
  172. [9:52 PM] Tenrei: (Can Kirie take on gambling debts)
  173. [9:52 PM] Faerie: (It's still just a +6, RIP. Unless we make it a really pretty cake!)
  174. [9:52 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Gambling debts?)
  175. [9:52 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (As in borrowing money to gamble?)
  176. [9:52 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Fae: Guidance. :smugpopo:
  177. [9:52 PM] Faerie: (I think Tenrei wants Kirie to owe people money)
  178. [9:52 PM] Tenrei: (Yes)
  179. (And then losing it)
  180. [9:54 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Uhh. While I don't see why not, it's... Uh...)
  181. [9:54 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ( :sadpopo: )
  182. [9:55 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (If you wish to incur debt and possible issues for no reason at all, that's fine.)
  183. [9:55 PM] Faerie: But no, yeah - this thing is loaded. Pastel pink decor, strawberries and edible flowers, that kinda stuff: it wouldn't look out of place in a wealthy princess' birthday party. What's it taste like? Who knows. Who really knows.
  184. Wait, does that goddamn cake have three floors?
  185. [9:55 PM] Tenrei: (I-I just have to win right :happypopo: )
  186. [9:56 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Ohhhh, so you are gambling, not just incurring debt! That's different. Then yeah, go ahead.)
  187. [9:56 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (I thought you were going to incur a debt of X amount without resolution :thinking: )
  188. [9:56 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d20
  189. [9:56 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20]: 4, Result: 4
  190. [9:57 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d20
  191. [9:57 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20]: 11, Result: 11
  192. [9:57 PM] Tenrei: (As much as I love story I probably wouldn't do that)
  193. [9:57 PM] Faerie: (Can Gentle Repose be casted on edibles?)
  194. [9:57 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Taking your time, Razmik, you've created and packed a cake with you one night.
  195. [9:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (No, Fae, no, not unless that is the corpse of a cake monster. :firepopo: )
  196. [9:58 PM] Faerie: (Aw, alright)
  197. [9:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (in which case I /guess/)
  198. [9:58 PM] Eon: (I mean, Calzone golems exist!)
  199. [9:58 PM] Faerie: (It should look like a monster! In size, at least.
  200.  
  201. [10:01 PM] Tenrei: (Ehh I'll be boring and just work I guess)
  202. [10:02 PM] Tenrei: (I don't want to roll poorly and have Kirie die in a ditch)
  203. [10:02 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Ahaha, that won't happen.
  204. [10:02 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Without going into much detail, Kirie will perform in local taverns and bars at night, and town squares and gatherings in the day, type of thing?
  205. [10:04 PM] Tenrei: yeah
  206. [10:05 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Doing the traditional bard business as bards go, you garner some attention. Perform check, please, at advantage.
  207. [10:05 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: If you have any skills capable of raising your own check, you may treat it as if you have it applied onto yourself.
  208. [10:06 PM] Tenrei: !roll 1d20+7
  209. [10:06 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+7]: 18, Result: 25
  210. [10:06 PM] Tenrei: !roll 1d20+7
  211. [10:06 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+7]: 7, Result: 14
  212. [10:07 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: During the week, you've attracted attentions, made fan, and benefited from maintaining a complex social balance.
  213. [10:07 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d6-1
  214. [10:07 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d6-1]: 2, Result: 1
  215. [10:08 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Between gifts, refusals, and regifting problematic icons of affection, you gained 25 gold peices.
  216. [10:09 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Lastly, you gain favor with someone. You may exchange that favor and draw a random Magic Item from table E, D, or C of your choice, or exchange that for a piece of critical information, as if you receive the benefit of a Divination spell, Kirie.
  217. [10:10 PM] Faerie: (While we're at it, let's just say Raz wanted to commission a fancy-ass pipe after consulting with people around his area. For reasons. But it wouldn't make sense for it to resolve right away, I guess... Can we leave that for later?)
  218. [10:10 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: It wouldn't take a significant amount of time to commision a pipe, Razmik.
  219. [10:10 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: It's easily something you can do within a week, finding someone and paying them whatever.
  220. [10:10 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: If you are trying to make one yourself, that's another matter.
  221. [10:11 PM] Faerie: (Oh, it's the former. Neat.)
  222. [10:11 PM] Faerie: (So, uh, how much would a pipe cost?)(edited)
  223. [10:11 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (you can either have one crafted from a local craftsman, or ask for a piece of artwork)
  224. [10:12 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Artwork comes in price range of 25 GP, 250, 750, or 2500+, but a pipe can really only reasonably reach 250 GP unless you have it crafted from diamond or something silly.)
  225. [10:12 PM] Faerie: (Well, it just has to look good. Like, just for show: functionality is likely not a concern :sadpopo:)
  226. [10:12 PM] Tenrei: (Can I get a Deck of Many Things instead)
  227. [10:12 PM] Faerie: (>5 gp
  228. WELP TIME TO PAWN OFF MY ARMOR)
  229. [10:12 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Even a 25gp pipe would be made of strong, good oak, polished and varnished properly, possibly enchanted.)
  230. [10:12 PM] Tenrei: (pleaaaase~)
  231. [10:12 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (>Deck of Many Things)
  232. [10:13 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ( :firepopo: )
  233. [10:13 PM] Eon: (hey we get to play a card game now?)
  234. [10:13 PM] Tenrei: (I'm sure Alicia will love it!)
  235. [10:13 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Unfortunately, Deck of Many Things break campaigns, especially this one.
  236. [10:13 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Certain results in DoMT are planar-based.
  237. [10:14 PM] Faerie: (Wait, I would have 35gp if I don't go through with getting John a new maul. Let's go with that!)
  238. [10:14 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: So... no deck of many things, pls. :sadpopo:
  239. [10:14 PM] Tenrei: (Yes DoMT basically ends campaigns~)
  240. [10:14 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Faepls)
  241. [10:14 PM] Faerie: (How does a traveling storyteller come across a deck of manny things like that)
  242. [10:14 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (>Skull, Donjon, Void in a row)
  243. [10:15 PM] Eon: (how about a deck of a few things? :thinking: )
  244. [10:15 PM] Mizuki: (Deck of many things? :blobthinking: )
  245. [10:15 PM] Tenrei: (At least you can't void if you donjon first)
  246. [10:15 PM] Tenrei: (Not that you're much less fucked)
  247. [10:15 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (You can have them trigger at the same time)
  248. [10:15 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Which make for a lot of complicated issues)
  249. [10:16 PM] Faerie: (Why would anyone ever WANT a DoMT? It's like playing Xomlord)
  250. [10:16 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (You become trapped physically somewhere and spiritually elsewhere)
  251. [10:16 PM] Eon: (because its randomlulz
  252. [10:16 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (And then draw no more card twice :thinking: )
  253. [10:16 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Anyways, once Kirie resolve, we'll proceed since I don't think anyone else is doing anything else of note?
  254. [10:17 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Esker's information-seeking is automatic.
  255. [10:17 PM] Tenrei: (Oh yes sorry! I'll stop memeing)
  256. [10:17 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Heh)
  257.  
  258. [10:18 PM] Mizuki: (did I get enough money to craft another pistol?)
  259. [10:18 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: pick a table and roll it if you wish; if it's a spell scroll, the GM randomly determine content
  260.  
  261. [10:18 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alicia: ... Sure. You are able to get help from your friend who wishes to know more about firearm anyway.
  262. [10:19 PM] Eon: (>9th level spell scroll
  263. > Gate)
  264. [10:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: After all, a new crossbow-like tool with propulsion powered by magic is of interest to mercenary.
  265. [10:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (>random >gm)
  266. [10:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (>GM is never random)
  267. [10:19 PM] Faerie: (>00 Portale Hole)
  268. [10:20 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Uhh. :sadpopo:
  269. [10:21 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: I am actually only waiting on players, so there's that. :sadpopo:
  270.  
  271. [10:22 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Well, I've given people enough time, I think? We'll push past the downtime, then.
  272. [10:22 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: After a week of peace and quiet, you sleep are starting to be troubled once again.
  273. [10:22 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: It started out with just a night of a sinking feeling, of falling upon falling, for a lengthy period of time,
  274. [10:23 PM] Tenrei: (I'll roll on table D then!)
  275. [10:23 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Sure)
  276. [10:23 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: and on the second night, that sickening, falling sensation comes to realization, as you once again woke up ni the nightmare, within the domed room.
  277. [10:23 PM] Tenrei: (E looks stronger but too boring)
  278. [10:24 PM] Tenrei: !roll 1d100
  279. [10:24 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d100]: 81, Result: 81
  280. [10:24 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Potion of Longevity...
  281. [10:24 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: It's part of the gifts that were given to you, from a passionate noble proclaiming to keep your beauty, vim, and vigor eternal.
  282. [10:25 PM] Tenrei: (Wow are you trying to say something, asshole)
  283. [10:25 PM] KogasaGaSagasa:
  284.  
  285. [10:25 PM] Faerie: Razmik has been sleeping with a dreamcatcher all this time! Fool him twice, no! Ahahaha- oh, there it is...
  286. Here, again?
  287. [10:25 PM] Faerie: (>Very rare
  288. Damn)
  289. [10:25 PM] Tenrei: (64 is young for a half-elf you know!)
  290.  
  291. [10:25 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Truth is, said noble is a lolicon)
  292. [10:25 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ( :smugpopo: )
  293. [10:26 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ( >minimum 13)
  294. [10:26 PM] Tenrei: (wwww)
  295. [10:26 PM] Faerie: (But isn't 13 in elf years, like, baby-aged?)
  296. [10:26 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle blinks, and nods at the group as you arrive, appearing out of nowhere. "Welcome back."
  297. [10:27 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Well, about time you show up, fam." Shadow adds. "What's with the cake?"
  298. [10:27 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Nephelle's eyes light up.
  299. [10:27 PM] Faerie: Razmik's slouching, not that anyone immediately in front of him would be able to tell from the confectionary on the table.
  300. [10:28 PM] Faerie: He speaks up, from behind the baked dessert. ''I'm a bit relieved, in a way: last night felt like all of this had been just a dream.''
  301. [10:28 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: .... Shadow helps you out, because it's the right thing to do. :sadpopo:
  302. [10:29 PM] Faerie: ''The cake's...'', Razmik pauses.
  303. [10:29 PM] Eon: (tenten is a half-elf, right?)
  304. [10:29 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "I don't know, fam, if you can just dream a few nights and suddenly become able to take down zombies and demons and zombied demons, shit, heroes are cheap, ainnit?" Shadow grins.
  305. [10:29 PM] Tenrei: (Yes~)
  306. [10:29 PM] Mizuki: "Hey, been a while" - Smiled Alicia
  307. [10:29 PM] Tenrei: (So's my character)
  308.  
  309. [10:29 PM] Faerie: Man, Recelle's gonna laugh, isn't she?
  310. [10:29 PM] Faerie: (ww)
  311. [10:30 PM] Faerie: ''Let's just say it's a present! There's more than one floor, so...'', Razmik beckons to Nephelle to come closer. He's sure she wouldn't mind sharing, because truthfully, the cake had been baked with everyone in mind.(edited)
  312. [10:31 PM] Faerie: ''Anyways, good to see you! Glad you all could show up.''
  313. [10:32 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Nephelle cheerfully hops over, giving Razmik a big hug once she's certain she won't interfere with cake-holding-ness.
  314. [10:32 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle chuckles, wiping a dagger clean. "Well..." ... and brings out an entire set of plates and silverwares. They look rather... familiar.
  315. [10:32 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... It's from the previous Wish; 2000 GP worth of plates and silverwares.
  316. [10:33 PM] Faerie: Better place that on the table, then :sadpopo:
  317. [10:33 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... I've got just the thing." Recelle says, deadpan.
  318. [10:33 PM] Mizuki: Alicia looks around - "Guess John is still on guard duty."
  319. [10:34 PM] Faerie: Razmik laughs, and just now realizes he's dressed as he went to sleep: no armor.
  320. [10:34 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (I would've approved refurnishing the ironwood furnitures into ironwood armor or weapon as well, given carpentry)
  321. [10:34 PM] Faerie: ''Maybe he's purposefully taking night shifts to avoid coming back, eh?'', Raz jokes. Of course, people sleep during the day as well, but that kinda goes over his head.(edited)
  322. [10:34 PM] Faerie: (>table armor)
  323. [10:35 PM] Tenrei: Kirie curls up and watches the group from over her knees.
  324. [10:35 PM] Tenrei: (The Armoire of Invincibility)
  325. [10:35 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow shrugs, calling Tot to manifest with a small poof of smoke, before sitting down and petting the demon cat.
  326. [10:36 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Tot struggles against Shadow for a moment, trying his best to dodge the petting and occasionally tries to bite Shadow's fingers. The rogueish hero, however, proves to be a little too deft for Tot to resist.
  327. [10:36 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "..." The central statuette muses for a moment, as if waiting for a situation to speak up.
  328. [10:37 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The king instead takes out a pipe, and takes a whiff at it.
  329. [10:37 PM] Faerie: ''Let me get to it, then. Thank you for the plates'', he nods Recelle's way before slicing the cake up for serving. Let's hope he won't miss this time.
  330. [10:38 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: While the atmosphere is merry, there's a strange pressure in the air, tense under the cake and meeting and happiness.
  331. [10:38 PM] Mizuki: "You were reading a cooking book back in the library, right Raz?" - Asked Alicia taking a look at the cake - "Looking good!"(edited)
  332. [10:38 PM] Faerie: Razmik'll pause for a bit, he will. What's the table look like, right now? Divine Sense.
  333. [10:39 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The table is ... Dim. Sparkles of light and dsiturbing wells of shadow hides in the table, in the gems, shifting occasionally.
  334. [10:40 PM] Faerie: Razmik smiles, clearly content with how the cake turned out. ''Had some help, but I think it looks nice as well!''.
  335. [10:40 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: But where once it was like the Milky Way, a silvery river of stars to your divine sight, it's now like sparkling of a winter sky away from the band of galaxy.
  336. [10:40 PM] Faerie: Hmm. And the room? Did it still makes him feel like throwing up?
  337. [10:41 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The pressure is still there, but... Perhaps it's a trick of the light, or something else? The pressure remained the same, but it's not longer something that causes nausea and fear within you.
  338. [10:42 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: It's something that your spiritual training has hardened against, and not longer fear as a reflex of a novice, Razmik.
  339.  
  340. [10:43 PM] Faerie: He'll keep humming to himself while giving all present an unhealthy serving, thank you.
  341. [10:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: What's everyone else doing?
  342. [10:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow frowns, "Fam, let me help, you are rather clumsy, you realize?"
  343. [10:44 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle holds back a snicker.
  344. [10:44 PM] Eon: (gimme sec, mother called, proceed as if Esker is staring into blank space)
  345. [10:44 PM] Tenrei: Kirie takes a piece with a smile.
  346. [10:45 PM] Mizuki: "Oh, Recelle, I made the pistol you asked for." - Said Alicia eating her piece - "And a new bullet as well."
  347. [10:45 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle smiles. "That will help greatly. Thank you, Alicia."
  348. [10:47 PM] Faerie: Razmik does the worst fiendish impersonation available to him, raising his arms in mock threat: ''Careful with those words, Jager. The world inside this dessert belongs to me: I could unmake it with a mere thought!''
  349. ''Actually, yes. Thanks for helping.''
  350. [10:47 PM] Mizuki: "It was nothing!" - Smiled Alicia reaching for the pistol and the bullet in her pocket - "Here."
  351. [10:47 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle receives the pistol, tracing a finger over the fine work, as she smiles softly.
  352. [10:48 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "I'll keep it safe. And of course, I'll keep you all safe." Recelle nods.
  353. [10:49 PM] Faerie: Now that Razmik had his hands free, since Shadow was being so helpful... he'll take out a small, ornate wooden box, and tap on the table trying to call for the statuette's attention.
  354. [10:51 PM] Faerie: ''Rufia, Sir.'', he addresses, presenting to him the pipe. There was a distinct lack off gems in it, but considering the place they were stranded in, it was possibly for the best. ''I wished to apologize for my earlier transgression, is all.''
  355. He's sure the King would remember still.
  356. [10:51 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The King gives a light huff, "What is this, a bribe for a dead man?"
  357. [10:53 PM] Faerie: Uh, it's a pipe. Like the one he had on himself right now, actually.
  358. ''I believe there's no reason for me bribe you with gifts, but please, it'd make me happy if you accepted it.'', he nods.
  359. [10:53 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Meanwhlie, on the side, Shadow spends some time playing with Tot, mostly keeping to himself and the cake.
  360. [10:53 PM] Faerie: (Not being able to eat cake must feel pretty godawful)
  361. [10:53 PM] Eon: Esker snaps back to reality. "Cake?"
  362. [10:54 PM] Mizuki: In the meanwhile Alicia just eats her piece of cake while talking to Recelle and the others about what happened on the past week.
  363. [10:54 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Very well." The statuette nods, accepting the new pipe. It's a bit large, but the statuette manages to pocket it into the statuette, incorporating it into the golden material of the being.
  364. [10:55 PM] Faerie: Razmik's just, taking care of unfinished business, you guess.
  365.  
  366. [10:55 PM] Tenrei: Kirie has returned to reading her book, occasionally licking her lips.
  367. [10:56 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Well, in any case, there is something you should know." The king says, changing his tone. "Maybe you can sense it yourself as well, Razmik?"
  368. [10:56 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "The demon's weakening. Whatever that you've done, it's working well."
  369. [10:57 PM] Faerie: ''Hm. I was wondering, myself, but it's good to have it spelled out.'', Razmik acknowledges.
  370. ''We've found more people inside, as well, including our two friends here'', he signals in Kirie and Esker's general direction.
  371. [10:57 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Which brings up something that I should mention." The King pauses for a moment. "I've never seen the demon so... Upset, angry, filled with the manic angst that it carries upon itself. The demon's likely going to..."
  372. [10:58 PM] Faerie: ''-it's strange, too, how the fey have been pulling stronger people in lately.''
  373. [10:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Well, it's never reasonable to start with, but it'll be even less reasonable. Keep your blade sharp, and wit sharper."
  374.  
  375. [10:59 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Is that the case? That has not happened before." The king points out.
  376. [10:59 PM] Tenrei: Kirie glances up.
  377. [11:00 PM] Mizuki: (I'm a bit tired, sorry if I end up sleeping...)
  378. [11:00 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Well, I have no knowledge of what's going on out there." The king shrugs, the golden statuette moving helplessly. "Maybe someone's plotting something out there."
  379. [11:00 PM] Faerie: Razmik ain't one of wits, but that's why people travel in company!
  380. ''Stranger still, others have been taking notice of our situation. The divine, I mean.''
  381. [11:01 PM] Eon: Esker turns her gaze from the cake to the weird ass statue talking about her with Raz.
  382. [11:01 PM] Faerie: Razmik hurriedly explains the deal with Orcus showing up to reclaim his... her? wand, himself.
  383. [11:01 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The king frowns.
  384. [11:01 PM] Faerie: (Mizu, did you go back an hour as well?)
  385. [11:02 PM] Mizuki: (I don't know, probably not. 03:00 here)
  386. [11:02 PM] Faerie: (Oh. It's 2 right here right now, apparently)
  387. [11:02 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "In any case, when you are ready..." The king sighs. "Hopefully, you'll stay safe like the last few times, aye?"
  388. [11:04 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: When the party is ready, then, we'll proceed.
  389. [11:04 PM] Mizuki: (brb, 1 min)
  390. [11:04 PM] Faerie: Raz gives Esker a 'we can explain later' expression. ''Yeah... hopefully.''
  391. [11:05 PM] Faerie: He then goes back to his seat. ''Even after all this time, one never quite gets used to this place. You've been waiting for long, I realize.''
  392. [11:06 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Well." The king pauses. "I would prefer if I would not ever need to wait again. Good luck, as always."
  393. [11:06 PM] Faerie: (Also, king's being uncharacteristically civil. Really fires up them neurones)
  394. [11:07 PM] Faerie: Razmik grabs onto the chair's armrest, closing his eyes.
  395. [11:07 PM] Mizuki: Alicia finishes her cake and thanks Raz. It reminds her of the first time they ate inside a nightmare.
  396. [11:08 PM] Mizuki: She wonders what happened to Denalthir and Hime, hoping they are alright.
  397. [11:09 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Falling, deeper, into another layer of nightmare. Falling asleep on those golden thrones has never been hard before, and there's no exception this time around. However, as your consciousness falls through the void, for a moment, it feels as if the temperature drops along with you. What started out with ambient temperature ended in a freezing, biting cold, as foul wind ravages the party of hapless adventurers, who found themselves in the darkness, blinded back a lack of light and a thick veil of blizzard, of snow that burns and sucks the heat away from your body.
  398.  
  399. With a lack of sight, you are unable to identify your immediate surrounding. Furthermore, your hearing is extremely muffled due to the blizzard. Treat yourself as if you are heavily obscured.
  400. [11:09 PM] Faerie: (It is a mystery)
  401. [11:10 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: A cold, whispering voice sounds in the wind, unidentifiable, as it distorts...
  402. [11:10 PM] Faerie: Razmik struggles back to his feet. ''HEY'', he says, not able to discern squat.
  403. [11:10 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Welcome back, to the nightmare.
  404. [11:10 PM] Faerie: ''EVERYONE HERE?''
  405. [11:10 PM] Tenrei: (D-Does my darkvision help at all)
  406.  
  407. [11:10 PM] Faerie: He'll pull out Salamander, and direct it to shed light nearby.
  408. [11:11 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Those without darkvision are effectively blind. Thoes with darkvision have vision range of less than 5ft due to the blizzard.
  409. [11:11 PM] Eon: Esker grumbles. "Yeah, no need to shout, we might be on a mountainside for all we know." She replies as she casts Produce Flame
  410. [11:11 PM] Runic: "Jesus, not another blizzard" Lexon mutters shivering
  411. [11:11 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Salamander wails, the magical blade of fire seemingly so frail against the bitter, cold wind and snow.
  412. [11:11 PM] Mizuki: Alicia touches her amulet and lights it up, hoping to increase her field of view.
  413. [11:11 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: You can't hear them, Esker.
  414. [11:11 PM] Eon: (;-;)
  415. [11:11 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Even with magical light, you are barely able to seek to a range of 5ft.
  416. [11:12 PM] Eon: (ignore that first part then.)
  417. [11:12 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Those casting spells will find a lack of mouth protection causing them to choke on the snow - a Concentration check at DC of 15 is required.
  418. [11:12 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... if the spell is nonverbal, that's another story.
  419. [11:13 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d6
  420. [11:13 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d6]: 3, Result: 3

  424. [11:13 PM] Eon: (Though, what is stopping me from spamming it?)
  425. [11:13 PM] Mizuki: "Can anyone hear me?" - Shouted Alicia
  426. [11:13 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Lexon, you are struck gently by a stick of some kind, sweeping at you slowly.
  427. [11:13 PM] Faerie: Razmik considers summoning Salamander's spirit to warm the area up, but that'd probably end up awfully. It probably didn't like fire...
  428. [11:14 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: after a few moment, Recelle crawls next to you, Lexon, holding onto your hand, pressing her face against one of your ear. "We need to regroup. Don't move around too much."
  429. [11:14 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Recelle starts using her musket as a makeshift stick, sweeping around the area, attempting to help the group, well, regroup.
  430. [11:15 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: If anyone wishes to do something similar, please give me a Survival check. Without a lengthy tool, such as staff or 10ft pole, or a ladder or something, you make the check at Disadvantage.
  431. [11:15 PM] Eon: roll 1d20+7 surv
  432. [11:15 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+7]: 17, Result: 24
  433. [11:15 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Meanwhile, the blizzard is draining heat and energy from you all, suckling like a hungry vampire.
  434. [11:15 PM] Eon: roll 1d20+7 surv disadv
  435. [11:15 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+7]: 18, Result: 25
  436. [11:16 PM] Mizuki: Alicia takes out her staff and uses it to sweep through the area, hoping to find the others.
  437. [11:16 PM] Mizuki: roll 1d20
  438. [11:16 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20]: 14, Result: 14
  439. [11:16 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Esker, an expert druid familiar with dealing with nature, have little problem in establishing a barrier against blizzard, forming a quick "wall" of snow and creating a small space for the group to gather.
  440. [11:16 PM] Runic: Lexon tries his best in sticking close to Recelle, attempting to follow behind her within the raging blizzard
  441. [11:16 PM] Faerie: ...Razmik'll settle on his previous idea. Putting his sword against the snow, Salamander'll stab the ground as the... elemental? dwelling in it is caalled forth.

  456. [11:17 PM] Faerie: Razmik huddles close to Salamander, hoping its warmth rubs off onto him :sadpopo:
  457. [11:18 PM] Eon: Esker huddled behind her little snow wall. There must be some way she could let the rest know where she was..
  458. [11:18 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: After about 5 minutes, the group manage to gather in a crevice created tempoarily by Esker, a shelf of snow against the blizzard and biting wind. It won't last long - at all - but it gives you a moment of respite.
  459. [11:18 PM] Eon: (koga, is the DC 15 concentration check on cast or..)
  460. [11:18 PM] Eon: (oh, they could find me anyway?)
  461. [11:18 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (On cast. And each round to maintain concentration )
  462. [11:18 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Number of failture... Over half?
  463. [11:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alright. Given the amount of time spent, as you remain in the cold, all of you receive a bonus! A level of Exhaustion!
  464. [11:19 PM] Eon: (yay!)
  465. [11:19 PM] Tenrei: (We're all together?)
  466. [11:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa:
  467.  
  468. [11:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Now you are.)
  469. [11:19 PM] Tenrei: (Uh)
  470. [11:19 PM] Tenrei: (How often do I have to make the concentrarion check)
  471. [11:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The cold will quickly turn fatal, if you do not find shelter or a solution.
  472. [11:19 PM] Faerie: ''This place stinks.'', is the only thing escaping Raz's mouth
  473. [11:19 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Each round when you are exposed to the element.)
  474. [11:20 PM] Eon: (tenten use the hut ;-;)
  475. [11:20 PM] Tenrei: (When casting)
  476. [11:20 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (1 round)
  477. [11:20 PM] Tenrei: (uhm)
  478. [11:20 PM] Mizuki: "I-I'm freezing" - Complained a shaky Alicia. - "This is even worse than the one back in Silverkeep."
  479. [11:20 PM] Faerie: Salamander, please. Please be warmer.
  480. [11:20 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: For the next 5 minute or so, Esker's shelter will hold.
  481. [11:20 PM] Tenrei: (so 10 DC 15 checks...)
  482. [11:21 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: During which you won't have to make concentration checks, as people huddle against the blizzard.
  483. [11:21 PM] Faerie: ''We need to do something.''
  484. [11:21 PM] Faerie: (Checks or saves?)
  485. [11:21 PM] Tenrei: (Oh yay!)
  486. [11:21 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow frowns, "I can buy you time..."
  487. [11:22 PM] Mizuki: "You alright, Azura?" - Asked Alicia
  488. [11:22 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Flaming sphere, beyond the barrier of snow, melting the snow as they flow down and radiates a level of warmth, while Kirie casts her spell.
  489. [11:22 PM] Tenrei: Kirie immediately flips her book open and begins reading. The billowing pages and awful visibility dont seem to bother her at all; she doesn't even look at the book as she recites the passage.(edited)
  490. [11:22 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Azura seems lethargic, and nonresponsive.
  491. [11:22 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: She mewls weakly for a moment.
  492.  
  493. [11:23 PM] Mizuki: Alicia hugs the cat, keeping her warm.
  494. [11:23 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: After a moment, Kirie's spell resolve - Tiny Hut?
  495. [11:23 PM] Faerie: ''Gods, what's wrong with this whole place?'', Razmik complains out loud. The snow seemed to pile back on almost immediately, despite Shadow's efforts.
  496. [11:24 PM] Mizuki: (did Shadow cast flaming sphere already?)
  497. [11:24 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Yep.)
  498. [11:24 PM] Tenrei: (Yes, tiny hut~)
  499. [11:24 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The party's rescued by Kirie's spell, as a formiable hut of pure arcane force keeps the element away.
  500. [11:24 PM] Eon: Once they were in the Tiny Hut, Esker casts Produce Flame to bring some level of comfort to the party.
  501. [11:25 PM] Eon: It wasn't much, but who knows how long it would be before they found long lasting shelther?
  502. [11:25 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Gathered and huddling in the hut, between the spellcasters, the temperatures quickly rise again. But without rest, the exhaustion isn't going away. The frostbite's already setting in in some of you, though it wouldn't negatively impact you yet.
  503. [11:25 PM] Tenrei: Kirie heaves a sigh and collapses, rubbing herself to warm up.
  504. [11:25 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The snow is like death, howling and cutting outside, kept away only by magic...

  508. [11:26 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Azura shakes herself awake, huddling close to Alicia, evidently suffering moreso than others due to size.
  509. [11:26 PM] Mizuki: Alicia sits close to Esker's fire - "N-Nice work."
  510. [11:26 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle coughs, and spits out the cold icy water from her mouth.
  511. [11:27 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: And, Perception check, everyone.

  517. [11:28 PM] Tenrei: "Yeah, I'm fine now..." Kirie says, nodding.
  518. [11:28 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Esker. Your senses are sharp, especially in situation like these.

  527. [11:28 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: A pack of Winter Wolves, six in number, seems to be around the Tiny Hut, sniffing and prowling around in the blizzard.
  528. [11:28 PM] Faerie: Sentinel shield, advantage on perception checks
  529. [11:28 PM] Mizuki: roll 1d20+4

  531. [11:29 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: They are unable to enter, and seems a bit confused at the sudden disappearance of the prey, and the appearance of the tiny hut.
  532. [11:29 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: One of them breaths a gout of icy, cold breath on the tiny hut to no avail, howling angrily.
  533. [11:29 PM] Eon: "We have company, it seems. But we're still safe in here, for now at least.." Esker glares in the wolves' general direction
  534. [11:29 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Also, the water from the snow - it isn't transparent, but rather carrys a black hue.
  535. [11:30 PM] Faerie: ''Alright'', Razmik comments. ''I'm fairly certain regular wolves can't do that.''
  536. [11:30 PM] Faerie: Not like regular wolves would be able to be at easy under such conditions, either. Right?
  537. [11:30 PM] Tenrei: "No, I'm sure they can't" Kirie says.
  538. [11:30 PM] Tenrei: "...I hope they go away."
  539. [11:30 PM] Mizuki: "How long does the hut lasts?" - She asked
  540. [11:30 PM] Eon: "Do you think we can skin them to make winter clothing for some of us, you think?" Esker muses.
  541. [11:30 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Indeed - the Winter Wolves are a known type of magical beast - evil and intelligent, capable of conversation, cruel hunters of the arctic lands, often working with evil humanoids or giants.
  542. [11:31 PM] Runic: Lexon observes the melted snow, now noticing the the black color it carries, "gross, it was already bad enough that my boots are getting wet..."
  543. [11:31 PM] Tenrei: "Eight hours." Kirie replies.
  544. [11:31 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Their fur is pure white, with striking eyes like sapphires.
  545. [11:31 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... One of the winter wolf leans close to the Tiny Hut.
  546. [11:32 PM] Tenrei: "Where the hell is this?"
  547. [11:32 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Come out.... Come out..." It whispers, softly, in Common. "We know you are in there, meat."
  548. [11:32 PM] Faerie: Neverind, that. Razmik tries not to look outside the dome too much.
  549. [11:33 PM] Faerie: ''Hey, does anyone have any means of boiling water?'', he asks the spellcasters while rummaging through his things for a pot.
  550. [11:33 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: And, suddenly, it jerks back and lets out another gout of cold breath. The other wolves howl, and continues to prowl, occasionally whispering harassing words into the dome. It's easy to ignore, especially considering Tiny Hut's effect.
  551. [11:33 PM] Eon: "I can make both water and fire, sure." Esker pipes up
  552. [11:33 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "I can do fire." Shadow nods.
  553. [11:33 PM] Eon: Drop Produce Flame, Cast Cre-
  554. [11:34 PM] Eon: "Wait. How much water do you need?"
  555. [11:34 PM] Faerie: ''That's great, great. We should have enough water between all of us, let me ready up some tea.''
  556. [11:34 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Do we have a pot?" Recelle adds,
  557. [11:34 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Before taking out a large, silver, ornated dutch oven from her backpack.
  558. [11:34 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Yes, yes we do."
  559. [11:34 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Wish OP?)
  560. [11:35 PM] Mizuki: (:smugpopo:)
  561. [11:35 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The dutch oven smells faintly of tarrasque steak still.
  562. [11:35 PM] Faerie: ''Well, mine's not as big, so this is nice to have!''
  563.  
  564. [11:35 PM] Eon: "I'll make enough to fill up all our containers then." Esker resumes her verbal and somantic components of Create Water
  565. [11:35 PM] Mizuki: "Some tea would be great, yes."
  566. [11:35 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "..." Shadow pauses for a moment, considering, before summoning Tot. "Doomwing. I have a job suitable for one such as you."
  567. [11:36 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "NO, FAM, NO, FUCK YOU."
  568. [11:36 PM] Faerie: [System notice: whenever we decide to step out of the dome, Razmik will prepare one last batch of tea infused with dried leaves.]
  569. [11:36 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... I am going to have you go out there, sting one of those wolves, and I'll immediately recall you to familiar space..."
  570. "NO."
  571. [11:36 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "And we are going to rin-" "NO, STOP" "se and repeat," "NO" "until the wol" "STOP" "ves are dead."
  572. [11:37 PM] Faerie: (They'll grant advantage on CON saves to four people. Let's say... Kirie, Esker, Alicia and Lexon?)
  573. [11:37 PM] Faerie: (The idea is to save those servings for just before leaving the dome. Effect lasts an hour)
  574. [11:37 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow smiles brightly, patting Tot. "Doomwing, today, you shall gain more worthless kills under your tyrannical terror."
  575. [11:38 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: And wields the poor imp cat like a thrown weapon.
  576. [11:38 PM] Eon: Esker will Produce Flame to boil the water.
  577. [11:38 PM] Mizuki: "Can't we just let those wolves in and blow them up?" - Suggested Alicia with a whisper.
  578. [11:38 PM] Faerie: ...At least Shadow realizes the absurdity in killing for its own sake? Razmik thought.(edited)
  579. [11:39 PM] Eon: Before realising that she has to hold the pot over her hand for the entire while.
  580. [11:39 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle holds back a laugh, trying to keep a straight face, while Tot thrashes helplessly. "Don't worry, fam, I got you."
  581. [11:39 PM] Faerie: ''Be careful, though, the dome might fall apart if we do something reckless''
  582. [11:39 PM] Eon: Grumbling, she'll maintain the awkward posture for tea. She could really use some hot tea, and the rest too, she imagined.
  583. [11:40 PM] Tenrei: "The dome won't fall apart, but it will never let in anything other than us." Kirie says.
  584. [11:40 PM] Faerie: ''Wait'', he asks Kirie. ''Can we go through it, then?''
  585. [11:40 PM] Tenrei: "Yes, we can enter and exit freely."
  586. [11:40 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow: Ready Action recall familiar whenever Tot performs a surprise attack with imp Stinger
  587. Tot: Invisibility, Move, attack with no disadvantage or advantage
  588. Repeat until the winter wolves give up, which will take a better part of 10 minutes, or if the players wish to take initiative.
  589. [11:41 PM] Eon: (reading the text of tiny hut, does it not like, break?)
  590. [11:41 PM] Mizuki: "Can't you give some wolves permission to enter?" - Asked Alicia
  591. [11:41 PM] Faerie: ''Are you sure you'd call this a sound plan, Shadow?''
  592. [11:41 PM] Eon: (like nothing short of dispel magic?)
  593. [11:41 PM] Tenrei: Kirie shakes her head. "The hut only recognizes those present when the spell is cast"
  594. [11:41 PM] Faerie: ...Who's Leomund?
  595. [11:41 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Tot starts out with screams and shouts, but quickly get into it as he realize the absurdity of it all, assaulting the wolves where it hurt, stinging them in unprotected spot, injecting imp venoms, before laughing sadistically each time he's launched into the blizzard.
  596. [11:42 PM] Eon: "In a way, killing the wolves would be wise, either though that means we have to walk out there again. Mostly because I still think we should skin them for their fur but.."
  597. [11:42 PM] Tenrei: "We probably should. They'll find us again otherwise..."
  598. [11:42 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The winter wolves slowly lose morale, as an unseen, invisible attacker capable of teleporting into a fortress of force attacks them over and over.
  599. [11:42 PM] Faerie: Maybe Razmik could lend him a hand...
  600. [11:42 PM] Tenrei: "But it's too cold."
  601. [11:42 PM] Faerie: Were the wolves together, or spread out arond the dome?
  602. [11:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Spread out, prowling - but after a minute or two, they start breathing gouts of icy breath randomly, in hope of catching Tot.
  603. [11:43 PM] Mizuki: "We can't just wait inside until the hut gets dispelled." - Commented Alicia - "If that happens and the wolves are still there, we're dead."
  604. [11:43 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Tot, having the advantage of flight and cover of blizzard, remains sadistic.
  605. [11:44 PM] Tenrei: "Alright, you fireball them then." Kirie says.
  606. [11:44 PM] Eon: "Alicia, can't you just walk out and drop a Fireball on their head?"
  607. [11:44 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Shit, this is fun." The imp cat comment, its tail wet with winter wolf blood.
  608. [11:44 PM] Faerie: ''Well, this is... an interesting strategy, to say the least. Good job so far.''
  609. [11:44 PM] Mizuki: "W-Well, if they're within 20ft of each other, that might work..." - Answered Alicia
  610. [11:45 PM] Eon: Is the water boiled yet?
  611. [11:45 PM] Faerie: Razmik commends Shadow for his unconventional usage of feline warfare, before placing a hand on Alicia's shoulder.
  612. [11:45 PM] Mizuki: She watches the wolves movement for a while, and wonders if a surprise attack would be possible.
  613. [11:45 PM] Eon: (the hut is opaque from the outside, and transparent from the inside so..)
  614. [11:46 PM] Faerie: ''It sounds just dumb enough that it might work. I've got you, alright?''
  615. [11:46 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: The winter wolves, after being dropped to half HP, all being badly poisoned by the imp, became weak enough for an alpha strike from the adventurers to defeat most of them in one fell swoop. As that's... actually really easy with so many of you... We'll consider them neutralized.
  616. [11:46 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d6

  619. [11:46 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Three of them dropped dead, while the rest of the winter wolves flee with superior speed and cover of the blizzard.
  620. [11:46 PM] Tenrei: "Oh, they're gone."
  621. [11:46 PM] Faerie: (I was gonna suggest for Alicia to drop the ball and jump back, with Raz helping pull her back, but that works too)
  622. [11:46 PM] Tenrei: "Good work."
  623. [11:47 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Tot gained some experience.
  624.  
  625. [11:47 PM] Eon: (I mean, she could have cast Flaming Sphere after exiting from the back of the hut, and then walking back in)
  626. [11:47 PM] Mizuki: "Well... Nice work." - Said Alicia with a thumbs up.
  627. [11:47 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Tot seem exceptionally proud of itself, strutting around proudly.
  628. [11:47 PM] Mizuki: (Tot the exp slayer)
  629. [11:48 PM] Faerie: ''So much for their threats. You said something about pelting, Esker?''
  630. [11:49 PM] Eon: "Yeah, we don't really know how long we'll be in these conditions.. Anyhow, water's boiled, tea time?"
  631. [11:50 PM] Faerie: ''Tea? Ah, I'm really glad you made your way to us back then,'' Raz confesses with a sigh.
  632. [11:50 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: While winter wolves make exceptionally poor food - their meat is sour and bitter even with treatment and spice - Razmik, being a Gourmand, is capable of preparing them to the point of deliciousness anyway, given what the party carries with them as fools. A successful survival check will pelt the wolves.

  641. [11:51 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: You receive three Winter Wolf Pelts (150 GP each).
  642. [11:52 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: They also act as suitable clothing and mouth protection when worn as cloak for spellcasters.
  643. [11:52 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Of note, I completely forgot, Alicia.
  644. [11:52 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Your cloak of resistance is good enough for mouth protection against the blizzard as well, as long as you wear it tighter.
  645. [11:52 PM] Eon: (Alright, who makes concentration checks?)
  646. [11:53 PM] Faerie: (The concentration check is a saving throw, right? Since it's concentration)
  647. [11:53 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Yeah.)
  648. [11:53 PM] Mizuki: (I make concentration checks)
  649. [11:53 PM] Eon: (you already have a cloak!)
  650. [11:53 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (>not wearing 16 cloaks >adventurers)

  653. [11:54 PM] Mizuki: (cloaks are never too much!)
  654.  
  655. [11:54 PM] Faerie: Razmik proposes they split the pelts between Esker, Kirie and Alicia.
  656. [11:54 PM] Eon: Esker proceed to wear one, and passes one to Kirie and -
  657. [11:54 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow raises his hand weakly. "Uh..."
  658. [11:55 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: "I mean, it's not really necessary and all and all that..."
  659. [11:55 PM] Eon: Of course, there was another spellcaster after all.
  660. [11:55 PM] Eon: Esker hands the last cloak to Shadow
  661. [11:55 PM] Mizuki: "Give one to Shadow, Raz." - Said Alicia - "I thought of a plan that might get us out of here safely."
  662. [11:56 PM] Mizuki: "Can anyone else other than me and Shadow cast flaming sphere?" - She asked(edited)
  663. [11:56 PM] Faerie: He's still very much into the whole ''reciting while casting spells'' trend, but having taken up the habit of overworking himself during strength-building excercises to build endurance (ass-backwards concept, indeed), he doesn't feel too intimidated by the prospect of pain.
  664. [11:56 PM] Tenrei: Kirie shakes her head.

  666. Cloak, nonmagical

  668. The cloak of the white wolf is made of winter wolf pelt, stringed together. The wearer gains advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks made to hide in snowy terrain.
  669. [11:57 PM] Faerie: ''I've got Salamander, if that counts.''
  670. [11:57 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow raises his hand, "Given rest, I can do it all day." Warlock spellcasting and all.
  671. [11:57 PM] Eon: "I can make a tiny Produce Flame, but you already know that."
  672. [11:57 PM] Tenrei: Though it may not be much, Kirie warms her clothing with a few small words and a few gestures.
  673. [11:57 PM] Runic: "Nope not at all Alicia" Lexon replies stating the obvious
  674.  
  675. [11:58 PM] Mizuki: "We might be able to keep ourselves warm with two flaming spheres, as long as we stay close enough." - She suggested.
  676. [11:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Anyone proficient in Nature, give me a Nature check.
  677. [11:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Survival works as well.
  678. [11:58 PM] Eon: roll 1d20+7
  679. [11:58 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+7]: 14, Result: 21
  680. [11:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: (If you are good with both, make just one :sadpopo: )
  681. [11:58 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Esker pls
  682. [11:59 PM] Eon: wait.
  683. [11:59 PM] Eon: (yeah, I'll take survival)
  684. [11:59 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d4
  685. [11:59 PM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d4]: 1, Result: 1
  686. [11:59 PM] Faerie: ''Uh, I don't know, Alicia...'', Razmik brings up how the salamander inside Salamander didn't help much to warm him up while the group was split. He sounds worried.
  687. [11:59 PM] KogasaGaSagasa: Within 10 minutes, the weather outside suddenly gets a lot worse. A lot worse.
  688. May 14, 2017
  689. [12:00 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Precipitation goes from stage 5 to 5, Temperature drops from Cold to Arctic Cold, Wind goes from Gale to Storm.
  690. [12:00 AM] Eon: (does anyone know Control Weather :sadpopo: )
  691. [12:00 AM] Tenrei: "...We're going to die here."
  692. [12:00 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The weather is bad enough that Small characters may be carried away by the wind.
  693. [12:00 AM] Tenrei: Kirie curls up.
  694. [12:00 AM] Mizuki: "The problem is, we have no idea where we are. Even if we do manage to keep warm for a while, the blizard will eventually kill us all, if we don't find a way."
  695. [12:00 AM] Eon: (I know it's like a level gazillion spell)
  696. [12:01 AM] Faerie: Raz's stomach drops a bit. ''P-please don't say that...''
  697. [12:01 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Esker. You know this to be unnatural. There's someone controlling the weather outside.
  698. [12:01 AM] Runic: "God this place sucks..." Lexon mutters again
  699. [12:01 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Indeed.
  700. [12:01 AM] Eon: "Someone is doing this.." Esker mutters, informing the rest
  701. [12:02 AM] Eon: But who? and more importantly, where?
  702. [12:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: From the howling wind and snow, carried by an injured winter wolf, rides a skeletal woman with cyan skin and white hair, like that of dry ice.
  703. [12:02 AM] Faerie: ''I'll call down Interloper, in a while. That's two of us that won't have to walk, in case people are still tired.''
  704. [12:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: She seems to be wizen and old, and wields a staff of known material, cackling.
  705. [12:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Gory blood, frozen and messy, paints most of her chest and stomach, which is bloated.
  706. [12:03 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: In her offhand, one of the winter wolf that previously escaped lies limp, evidently slain by something.
  707. [12:03 AM] Faerie: ''That's awfully convenient.'', Razmik rolls his eyes. ''We don't suppose this is her doing? Maybe the weather responds to her presence, if it's getting worse just as she showed up'', Razmik reasons.
  708. [12:04 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: She lets out a shrill cry, "Come out, come out, pretties! The meat, they speak of more meat!"
  709. [12:04 AM] Mizuki: (can I roll arcana to see what she is? Maybe a Lich?)
  710. [12:04 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Kirie, Esker, your spine chills - you two know this creature instinctively.
  711. [12:04 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: It's a Bheur Hag, a type of hag that lives in the arctic environment, known for cannibalism and their great magic, channeled from their Greystaff.
  712. [12:04 AM] Faerie: 'I'm sorry, but we're trying to enjoy a meal in some quiet', Razmik replies in his mind.
  713. [12:05 AM] Faerie: (It's a haaag)
  714. [12:05 AM] Faerie: (Usage of the word ''wizen'' gives it away :happypopo:)
  715.  
  716. [12:05 AM] Mizuki: (so meta!)
  717. [12:05 AM] Eon: "Be very careful friends, that's a Hag. And whatever we do, we are not making a deal with it."
  718. [12:05 AM] Tenrei: (I think using "pretties" gave it away)
  719. [12:06 AM] Eon: (lots of things gave it away, I forgot hags could live in ice ;-;)
  720. [12:07 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: What will you do, adventurer? The Tiny Hut is a safe haven, of course....
  721. [12:07 AM] Mizuki: Alicia stares at that bloody mess of a woman. - "Truly... That seems awfully convenient. If we kill her, the blizard will stop, right?"
  722. [12:07 AM] Tenrei: "Probably."
  723. [12:08 AM] Eon: "I highly doubt it would be that simple. Hags are schemeing creatures.."
  724. [12:08 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Not necessarily." Shadow frowns. "She's controlling the weather, but if the weather's already bad, it'll just go from terrible back to to bad."
  725. [12:08 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... That said, it'll help. Let's shank her, fam."
  726. [12:08 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow grits his teeth, pulling his cloak together (He seems to have taken a liking to it), and speaks like a true thief from the thieve's guild.
  727. [12:09 AM] Faerie: Razmik gestures for the hag. Can she look into the dome?
  728. [12:09 AM] Mizuki: "Back to bad is good enough, I guess." - She said with a sigh preparing a firebolt.
  729. [12:09 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: She doesn't seem to have notice...
  730. [12:09 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d100
  731. [12:09 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d100]: 55, Result: 55
  732. [12:09 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d20
  733. [12:09 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20]: 1, Result: 1
  734. [12:09 AM] Faerie: ''Hold up. We don't get the luxury of walking out of here without a plan.''
  735. [12:09 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: She seems to have thought of a good idea for a moment, before the maddening hunger overtakes her, as she takes a bite of the dead winter wolf.
  736. [12:10 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Alright, then, it's a show time!" The behur hag laughs, and cackles.
  737. [12:10 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow frowns, furrowing his brow, watching the hag intently...
  738. [12:10 AM] Eon: "I'm not sure if combat isn't such a bad idea, actually talking to a Hag is we-"
  739. [12:10 AM] Mizuki: (tfw I'm about to meta it up)
  740. [12:10 AM] Faerie: Well, Razmik couldn't blame her. It's hard not to go slightly hungrier on cold days...
  741. [12:11 AM] Mizuki: (s-sorry Koga)
  742. [12:11 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle wields her weapons, pistols, seemingly worried.
  743. [12:11 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Don't meta too much, but a little is ok :happypopo: )
  744. [12:11 AM] Mizuki: (i-is it really?)
  745. [12:11 AM] Eon: "ll, a terrible idea. We'll probably get wormed into a deal that we'll regret sorely.."
  746. [12:12 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: I'll give the party a round worth of action to do whatever before I continue.
  747. [12:12 AM] Faerie: ''Hags aren't dumb, are they?'', Razmik questions. ''I doubt we can talk her down, at any rate.''
  748. [12:12 AM] Runic: "Uhhh, anything really important we should know beforehand, like can she do something dangerous" Lexon asks refering to the group
  749. [12:12 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: She's roughly 60ft away from the center of Tiny Hut, for reference.
  750. [12:12 AM] Eon: "Hags are powerful spellcasters so.."
  751. [12:12 AM] Mizuki: (Koga, before we start, I have a question)
  752. [12:13 AM] Mizuki: (when I use action surge, is it a bonus action?)
  753. [12:13 AM] Faerie: ''Do you think we'll be safe here, even?''
  754. [12:13 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Action surge usage is Not An Action)
  755. [12:13 AM] Mizuki: (cool)
  756. [12:13 AM] Faerie: (It gives you back a bonus action, if you used one, even)
  757. [12:13 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (brb washroom :sadpopo: )
  758. [12:13 AM] Eon: "She could use Dispel Magic I guess.. But she seems to be waiting still, so probably not?"
  759. [12:13 AM] Tenrei: "Yes, be careful of her magic."
  760. [12:15 AM] Runic: "Guess the tiny hut won't shield us from her like it did for the wolves... well whatever."
  761. [12:15 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Well,
  762. [12:15 AM] Faerie: If she says it's time to go, then maybe it's time to go, is what Razmik realizes.
  763. [12:15 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: I'll give the spell list to you guys.
  764. [12:15 AM] Mizuki: Alicia seems to be lost in thought, wondering how hard she should blast the hag.
  765. [12:15 AM] KogasaGaSagasa:
  766.  
  767. [12:15 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag has used control weather for today already.
  768. [12:15 AM] Faerie: (>control weather)
  769. [12:16 AM] Eon: (I FUCKING KNEW IT.)
  770. [12:16 AM] Faerie: (Okay, there's that)
  771. [12:16 AM] Runic: Lexon attempts to hide, trying to sneak up on the hag
  772. [12:16 AM] Runic: Roll 1d20+9
  773. [12:16 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+9]: 12, Result: 21
  774.  
  775. [12:16 AM] Runic: Roll 1d20+9 dis
  776. [12:16 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+9]: 2, Result: 11
  777. [12:16 AM] Eon: (did you leave the hut for that?)
  778. [12:17 AM] Runic: (Not yet, more like blending in I guess)
  779. [12:17 AM] Runic: (If I moved then sure)
  780. [12:17 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Anything else?
  781.  
  782. [12:17 AM] Faerie: Razmik's getting nervous, with this and that talk about her being able to do something to the dome.
  783. [12:17 AM] Mizuki: Alicia will prepare a firebolt.
  784. [12:18 AM] Faerie: He'll prepare Sacred Weapon, making his blade alight twice over. [Channel Divinity + command word]
  785. [12:18 AM] Eon: "Say. Do you think we could hide in plain sight with Pass Without Trace?"
  786. [12:18 AM] Faerie: ''Seeing you on edge like this doesn't do good things to my heart.''
  787. [12:19 AM] Faerie: ''I thought she saw us already, no? Or our dwelling, at least...''
  788. [12:19 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Everyone's action prep is done?
  789. [12:19 AM] Mizuki: wait, my bad
  790. [12:19 AM] Runic: (yup)
  791. [12:20 AM] Eon: Esker prepares a Produce Flame, I guess.
  792. [12:20 AM] Mizuki: I'll prepare a scorching ray instead
  793. [12:20 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Esker and Kirie's action remains...
  794. [12:20 AM] Eon: (we are so going to get dunked by AoE)
  795. [12:20 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alright, then.
  796. [12:20 AM] Tenrei: Kirie will give inspiration to Raz and Lexon!
  797. [12:20 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag raises her staff... and gives the winter wolf beneath her a kick, howling madly. The winter wolf, pained by the kick and in fear of the hag, being absolutely frightened, obeys the hag.
  798. [12:21 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The wolf breaths a cone of cold air, obscuring the hag briefly!(edited)
  799. [12:21 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Without vision of the hag, you are unable to Counterspell,
  800. [12:21 AM] Faerie: Razmik was hoping to hear more from Kirie's book. Maybe after this is dealt with?
  801. [12:21 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: And a Wall of Ice forms, a sphere covering the outer shell of Tiny Hut, transparent, pristine.
  802. [12:22 AM] Tenrei: "...oh." Kirie says.
  803. [12:22 AM] Runic: "Uhhhh"
  804. [12:22 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: After that, seeming satisfied, the hag hop off the winter wolf. "It's chow time!"
  805. [12:22 AM] Faerie: (BUILD OF KINGS)
  806. DEEDS2
  807. [12:22 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Thrusts her staff into the winter wolf, killing it.
  808. [12:22 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: And... Starts ripping the winter wolf apart, before your eyes.
  809. [12:22 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Devouring its flesh.
  810. [12:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Howling, maddening so, devouring the very soul of the poor, evil creature.
  811. [12:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa:
  812.  
  813. [12:23 AM] Faerie: (Yeowch)
  814. [12:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: All of you, make a Wisdom saving throw!
  815. [12:23 AM] Faerie: Aura of Protection applies.
  816. [12:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Yep, paladin op)
  817. [12:23 AM] Eon: (what does that do ;-;)
  818. [12:23 AM] Faerie: roll 1d20+7
  819. [12:23 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+7]: 19, Result: 26
  820. [12:24 AM] Mizuki: (everyone with disadvantage, right?)
  821. [12:24 AM] Tenrei: (no, saves aren't checks~)
  822. [12:24 AM] Faerie: (No, exhaustion is disadvantage to ability checks only. At this tier of exhaustion, anyway)
  823. [12:24 AM] Mizuki: roll 1d20+4 (+3 wis prof +1 cloak)(edited)
  824. [12:24 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+4]: 15, Result: 19
  825. [12:24 AM] Faerie: Calm, Razmik, stay calm-
  826. [12:24 AM] Runic: Roll 1d20-1
  827. [12:24 AM] Tenrei: roll 1d20+5
  828. [12:24 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20-1]: 17, Result: 16
  829. [12:24 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+5]: 9, Result: 14
  830. [12:25 AM] Faerie: (Pleasee don't ignoree my class features ;_;)
  831. [12:25 AM] Eon: roll 1d20+7 what the heck is raz's cha mod
  832. [12:25 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+7]: 16, Result: 23
  833. [12:25 AM] Runic: (Oh!)
  834. [12:25 AM] Faerie: (+3 to everyone's save)
  835. [12:25 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag doesn't seem to have that much plan beyond that, laughing and cackling madly, devouring the poor Winter Wolf, before starting on the second one, eating them both. From her bloated stomach, it's likely that it's where the 3rd winter wolf ended up, as well.
  836. [12:26 AM] Mizuki: Alicia is throughly disgusted by the hag's performance, but stands ready to fight!
  837. [12:27 AM] Faerie: ''...What now?'', Razmik wonders.
  838. [12:27 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The bloodied hag looks around, before noticing that she has ate the last of her mount. Howling like the biting wind, the insane hag shoves some of the bloody snow from the ground into her mouth, chewing and gulping, as if possessed by foul gluttony.
  839. [12:27 AM] Faerie: ''I thought the walls were gonna crush us.''
  840. [12:27 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The walls can't, as Tiny Hut is stronk.
  841. [12:27 AM] Tenrei: (so, Kirie failed~)
  842. [12:27 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Kirie, have you included +3 from Paladin?(edited)
  843. [12:27 AM] Tenrei: yes
  844. [12:27 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: :sadpopo:
  845. [12:27 AM] Tenrei: +2 WIS, +3 aura
  846. [12:28 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Uhhhh.
  847. [12:28 AM] Mizuki: (i-it's okay Kirie-chan)
  848. [12:28 AM] Faerie: (I don't know why, but I'd have thought Bards would be proficient in WIS)
  849. [12:28 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Kirie, fear takes over you, and you lose your mind for a moment... blabbering incoherently. Being "incapacitated", moving erraticly,
  850. [12:28 AM] Tenrei: (nope, dex and cha)
  851. [12:29 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Make me a Concentration check against DC 15.
  852. [12:29 AM] Tenrei: (the hut isn't concentration)
  853. [12:29 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Oh)
  854. [12:29 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (You are totally ok)
  855. [12:29 AM] Eon: (god it gets even better?)(edited)
  856. [12:29 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: After a few moments of sobbing, screaming, hammering the wall of ice in attempt to escape from the hag, you calm down, Kirie.
  857. [12:29 AM] Faerie: How far away is the hag, again?
  858. [12:30 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: 60ft away from the center of the Tiny Hut, which is 10ft radius.
  859. [12:30 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Directly layered past the Tiny Hut is a layer of ice created from the hag's spell.
  860. [12:30 AM] Mizuki: (initiative then?)
  861. [12:30 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ...
  862. [12:30 AM] Faerie: So we are NOT able to get out of the hut?
  863. [12:31 AM] Tenrei: (we cannot with all that ice~)
  864. [12:31 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Well, you are able to destroy the wall of ice,
  865. [12:31 AM] Eon: (spell can't exit the hut to hit the wall so..)
  866. [12:31 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: But the wall of ice will leave behind a layer of frigid ice, that cause damage for those that pass through it.
  867. [12:31 AM] Faerie: (But can you hit the wall from the inside?)
  868. [12:31 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Hm.
  869. [12:32 AM] Faerie: (Hut doesn't specify regular attacks, I guess.)
  870. [12:32 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Physical attacks directly out of the Tiny Hut seem to have little effect.
  871. [12:32 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The wall of ice is layered tightly to the magical boundary of Tiny Hut, so...
  872. [12:32 AM] Faerie: ''Are we stuck here, then?''(edited)
  873. [12:33 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "..." Shadow pauses for a moment, thinking.
  874. [12:33 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... And picks up Tot, idly, as if thinking of a plan.
  875. [12:33 AM] Faerie: (Can the hag fly?)
  876. [12:33 AM] Eon: "I could attempt to dispel the wall, but with how.. tired I am, it's unlikely to work."
  877. [12:33 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Some hags can fly.
  878. [12:33 AM] Runic: Lexon pokes at the wall of ice curiously with a dagger that he pulls out
  879. [12:34 AM] Mizuki: "How anticlimatic..." - Complained Alicia.
  880. [12:34 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Meanwhile, the hag seems deep in thought, also wondering how to best to get at the adventurers.
  881. [12:34 AM] Eon: "Y'know. We could just wait out the wall."
  882. [12:34 AM] Faerie: ...Razmik goes over to the capfire, and starts sipping on tea.
  883. [12:34 AM] Faerie: The same one he had promised the spellcasters, at that. He's chugging with abandon.
  884. [12:35 AM] Mizuki: Alicia hits the ice wall with her staff, still not letting go of the spell she prepared.
  885. [12:35 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... You know." Shadow says, "I can likely take one of you with me right behind the hag."
  886. [12:35 AM] Eon: "H-hey at least save some for me ;-; I boiled that water!" Esker stumbles for the tea
  887. [12:35 AM] Faerie: ''We'll show her a thing or two about warmth'', he thinks to himself.
  888. [12:35 AM] Faerie: ''Shadow, come.''
  889. [12:35 AM] Mizuki: (can I roll damage? :sadpopo:)
  890. [12:35 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Mizupls)
  891. [12:36 AM] Faerie: He gives him a mug, quicklike. ''Drink up, brother.''
  892. [12:36 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow nods, holding onto Razmik's shoulder. "I can teleport you and I right behind the hag, I am sure she won't be able to see it coming. Ripping through dimension and cover like that, and all."
  893. [12:36 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow nods, taking a sip of the tea to warm himself.
  894. [12:36 AM] Faerie: [>The tea is very bitter, but good for you.
  895. >For the next hour, you receive advantage on constitution saves.]
  896. [12:37 AM] Mizuki: "Hey... What if..." - Started Alicia - "We use this hot pan to melt the ice wall?"
  897. [12:37 AM] Eon: "Raz, Alicia and Lexon would be ideal for that.." Esker muses.
  898. [12:37 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Just, uh..." ... Shadow pauses for a moment, "You aren't gonna miss or anything right?"
  899. [12:37 AM] Faerie: ''That's brilliant, then. This works.''
  900. [12:37 AM] Eon: "Alicia, that isn't mundane ice.."
  901. [12:37 AM] Eon: "You're a wizard, you know that!"
  902. [12:37 AM] Faerie: Razmik grins. ''I can't miss this time. It's simple.''
  903. [12:38 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Hey, Lexon, my brother." Shadow turns to Lexon, as if thinking about a second choice.
  904. [12:38 AM] Faerie: (Raz's under bardic inspiration)
  905. [12:38 AM] Eon: "Wait. Whoever's going, come to me before you go."
  906. [12:38 AM] Runic: "Hmmmm, what is it Shadow?" Lexon responds(edited)
  907. [12:38 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow contemplates for a moment, before choosing to trust in Razmik's aim.
  908. [12:39 AM] Mizuki: Alicia shrugs and sits down to sip some tea as well. - "I don't feel very comfortable drinking something after witnessing that monstrosity having lunch." - She complained.(edited)
  909. [12:39 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "No, I trust you, fam - the fate of the world lies in your hand, and I shall deliver it to thrust! RIGHT INTO OUR FOE!" Shadow declares, hitting Razmik hard on the shoulder. Before wincing, striking plate armor.
  910. [12:39 AM] Faerie: ''Remain behind me, as soon as we get the drop on her.''
  911. Razmik begins channeling...
  912. [12:39 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... I mean, let's go." Shadow says, wounded. :sadpopo:
  913. [12:39 AM] Eon: Esker walks up and casts Freedom of Movement on Raz.
  914. [12:39 AM] Faerie: ''Let's try that again.'', Raz said high-fiving the half elf
  915. [12:40 AM] Eon: "Godspeed."
  916. [12:40 AM] Runic: Lexon shrugs, "Alright you two, good luck" he says turning back to the ice wall poking it again(edited)
  917. [12:40 AM] Faerie: ''Alright, I'm ready.'' [Wrathful Smite]
  918. [12:40 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Razmik, Shadow's waiting for you to take a Ready, if you need it.
  919. [12:40 AM] Mizuki: Alicia... sips some tea :sadpopo:
  920. [12:41 AM] Faerie: He'll ready his attack action :sadpopo:
  921. [12:41 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Afterward... Shadow casts Dimension Door, targetting 55 feet ahead of him, landing in the space right behind the hag, bending space and time and stepping forth, dragging Razmik with him.
  922. [12:41 AM] Faerie: Right behind her, who's facing the dome?
  923. [12:41 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Razmik, take your readied action, and then everyone roll initative.
  924. [12:41 AM] Eon: "Alicia, there's a good chance the ice wall falters if Raz gives the Hag a good smack of the head so.."

  931. [12:42 AM] Faerie: ''Scram!, Razmik simply quips. Not a Command, mind you: that's just the sound of steel attempting to find its way into the wicked magician.
  932. [12:42 AM] Mizuki: (I readied scorching ray)

  955. [12:45 AM] Faerie: Either way, that's three sources of damage.
  956. [12:45 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Yeah, you can concentrate on the spell - or well, if you meet the trigger and choose not to use it, you also lose the spell)
  957. [12:45 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 3d20

  964. [12:46 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag is struck suddenly, and her concentration on the wall of ice is broken.
  965. [12:46 AM] Faerie: (That's attack one, right?)
  966. [12:47 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: With a shrill cry, she turns to face Razmik angrily,
  967. [12:47 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (And you only get one for your ready action!)
  968. [12:47 AM] Faerie: (Ahh! Alright.)

  985. [12:49 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+9]: 4, Result: 13
  986. [12:49 AM] Faerie: Well, fuck. Razmik hadn's quite struck at her mind like he had hoped, but getting the wall down was a start. ''Good job, Shadow! Careful.''
  987. [12:49 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Missing like the usual.
  988. [12:49 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Lexon, your turn.
  989. [12:49 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow curses, realizing he's having less aim than Razmik.
  990. [12:50 AM] Eon: (having less aim than Raz :smugpopo: )

  995. [12:51 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (.... Or Hold Person, yeah)
  996. [12:51 AM] Faerie: (Yeah, Freedom of Movement always seemed strong to me)
  997. [12:51 AM] Runic: (Is the Icewall still up or can you just walk past it?)
  998. [12:51 AM] Eon: (it's completely gone, hag lost concentration.)
  999. [12:51 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag lost her concentration on the wall of ice, so the spell disappeared.
  1000. [12:51 AM] Runic: (Ahh okay)
  1001.  
  1002. [12:52 AM] Faerie: (Hold on, Shadow just pulled a fucking teleports behind u right in front of our noses)
  1003. [12:52 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (He's been doing that ever since Misty Step was a thing)
  1004. [12:52 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (he's just really bad at it)
  1005. [12:53 AM] Runic: Lexon decides to follow up along with Razmik and Shadow's momentum against the hag
  1006. [12:53 AM] Runic: And decides to dash towards her, via cunning action
  1007. [12:53 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: You charge out from the Tiny Hut, back into the blizzard, dashing toward the hag, into the killzone setup by Shadow and Razmik.
  1008. [12:54 AM] Runic: He sprints the 60 ft distance, dagger in hand
  1009. [12:54 AM] Runic: As he approches
  1010. [12:54 AM] Runic: He drops the dagger

  1015. [12:55 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ...
  1016. [12:55 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Is 15 your final answer?
  1017. [12:55 AM] Runic: (I guess so)
  1018. [12:56 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: If so... The hag's tough hide blocks the strike - her wizen skin and bone are like ice frozen and pressed into steel.
  1019. [12:56 AM] Runic: ( :sadpopo: )
  1020. [12:56 AM] Runic: (well)
  1021. [12:56 AM] Eon: (does anyone have the turn order written down btw? I don't remember it)

  1031. [12:57 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alicia, your turn
  1032. [12:57 AM] Faerie: (Nevermind, thanks, Koga)
  1033.  
  1034. [12:58 AM] Eon: (Hag's or Recelle is on 11, right?)
  1035. [12:58 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ( :smugpopo: )
  1036.  
  1037. [12:59 AM] Mizuki: Alicia charges and exits the hut, stopping right outside of it. She raises her staff and sends both a firebolt and three bolts of lightning flying against the hag!
  1038. [12:59 AM] Eon: (t-three?)
  1039. [12:59 AM] Mizuki: (evergy conflux, both properties)
  1040. [12:59 AM] Faerie: (MM?)
  1041. [12:59 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Scorching Ray -> Lightning?
  1042. [12:59 AM] Mizuki: (scorching ray)
  1043. [12:59 AM] Faerie: (ooh.)
  1044. [12:59 AM] Eon: (ah.)
  1045. [1:00 AM] Mizuki: "Azura, to me!" - She shouted.
  1046. [1:00 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: You can't actually take your Ready action on your turn,
  1047. [1:00 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: But Recelle will assist you, knowing what you wish to do,
  1048. [1:00 AM] Mizuki: (I-I can't?)
  1049. [1:00 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Moving you forward out of the hut with her with her Ready action, triggering your Ready action, before your turn.
  1050. [1:01 AM] Mizuki: (:blobthinking:)
  1051. [1:01 AM] Faerie: (>Wizard too focused on casting to move legs
  1052. Megumeme)
  1053. [1:01 AM] Mizuki: (I-I don't get it)
  1054. [1:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Ready action only last for one round, normally, so it would end at the start of your turn,
  1055. [1:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: So if you are moving forward on your turn, your Ready action would've already ended.
  1056. [1:02 AM] Mizuki: (ah...)
  1057. [1:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: In this case, though, Recelle just carried you out of the Tiny Hut while you blaze lightning and fire at the hag.
  1058. [1:03 AM] Mizuki: (w-well, thank you Recelle :sadpopo:)
  1059. [1:03 AM] Eon: (the mental imagery is hilarious)
  1060. [1:03 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle (And the GM) readied on the NPC turn precisely because they know you well :sadpopo:

  1080. [1:05 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag swoons, weakened by the assault, but is still standing.
  1081. [1:06 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: She's more angry at you than anything, Razmik, @Faerie .
  1082.  
  1083. [1:07 AM] Mizuki: (s-so, just to make it clear)
  1084. [1:07 AM] Faerie: Razmik just does what he's been trying to do for the past while, that is, get her to back off and perhaps become a tad less aggressive?
  1085. [1:07 AM] Mizuki: (I can't move with a readied spell?)
  1086. [1:07 AM] Faerie: He strikes at the wizened hag again!
  1087. [1:07 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Your ready action lasts until the start of your next turn)
  1088. [1:07 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Which fizzles if it wasn't triggered - in the case of a spell, it's wasted)
  1089. [1:08 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Go ahead, Razmik.

  1094. [1:08 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: 26? That's ahit.
  1095. [1:08 AM] Mizuki: (I see, didn't know :sadpopo:)

  1097. [1:08 AM] Faerie: Not like I can precision. DC 14 :sadpopo:

  1133. [1:16 AM] Tenrei: (is the snow difficult terrain)
  1134. [1:17 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Surprisingly, no - the snow is thick, but dense.
  1135. [1:19 AM] Tenrei: Okay! Kirie braces herself against the cold, running out into the storm. Flipping open her book, she shouts above the gale. "And the beast's ichor, wherever it touched - the eyes would not see, the ears would not hear, and the mind would not remember, and so the bile fell upon his eyes and his sight was lost forever."
  1136. [1:19 AM] Tenrei: (BLindness!)
  1137. [1:19 AM] Faerie: -Razmik threatens again, promising the hag there's plenty more warmth he can give her.

  1147. [1:21 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Ok, the hag's turn,
  1148. [1:21 AM] Tenrei: (pas!)
  1149. [1:21 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag decide to "fuck it I am out" of there, considering the situation and her health level, and Disengage, hopping on her greystaff, and attempt to take off into the blizzard, triggering Sentinel on Razmik for a Reaction. As the hag is blinded, you have advantage on the Sentinel-triggered attack, Razmik, should you wish to take it.
  1150. [1:21 AM] Eon: Esker was suspicious. Weren't Hags more.. talktative?
  1151. [1:21 AM] Faerie: (This is where we get PSYCHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'd)

  1161. [1:22 AM] Eon: (I SEE YOUR WEAKNESS)
  1162. [1:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The blind hag hogs on the staff, and flops on the ground from the strike.
  1163. [1:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Roll damage, Razmik.
  1164. [1:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Critical :firepopo:
  1165. [1:23 AM] Faerie: Out of all the things that could have gotten her out of there, her legs were not it.
  1166. [1:23 AM] Mizuki: (L-Lalatina?)
  1167. [1:23 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: You really broke a leg out there, Razmik.(edited)
  1168. [1:23 AM] Faerie: Razmik huffs, directing Salamander upwards mid-swing in a messy attempt to bisect her at large.
  1169. [1:24 AM] Faerie: roll 2d8+7 slash
  1170. [1:24 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [2d8+7]: 5,4, Result: 16
  1171.  
  1172. [1:24 AM] Faerie: (Salamander damage doesn't multiply, right?)
  1173. [1:24 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (... No.)
  1174. [1:24 AM] Faerie: roll 2d6 fire
  1175. [1:24 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [2d6]: 2,4, Result: 6
  1176. [1:24 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Yeah, well, the hag's dropped by the stike, unable to defend herself.
  1177. [1:24 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Your expert slash defeats the hag!
  1178. [1:25 AM] Faerie: And before you ask, here lies a reminder: The hag stood now before Dawnbringer Razmik!
  1179. [1:25 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Combat ends. :sadpopo:
  1180. [1:25 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ....
  1181. [1:25 AM] Eon: ...
  1182. [1:25 AM] Runic: ...
  1183. [1:25 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: As a reminder, Razmik, the blow can be nonfatal, if you wish for information or something.
  1184. [1:25 AM] Faerie: (Thanks, I was gonna smite :sadpopo:)
  1185. [1:25 AM] Runic: "Well that ended up pretty well"
  1186. [1:25 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (I realize as I pressed enter.)
  1187.  
  1188. [1:25 AM] Eon: "Was that really a Bleur Hag? I thought they were more.. y'know."
  1189. [1:25 AM] Faerie: (Er, how feasible is that? >I attempt to cut her legs off nonlethaly)
  1190. [1:25 AM] Runic: "Still cold as shit though..."
  1191. [1:26 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The blizzard... quickly clears, as the hag's defeated.
  1192. [1:26 AM] Faerie: Maybe she's just bleeding out? (DO WE REALLY WANNA DEAL WITH A HAG?)
  1193. [1:26 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: It's not sunny - it's a dark night still - but the blizzard's reduced to a gentle drift of snow, and the wind died.
  1194. [1:26 AM] Eon: (No we do not want to deal with a Hag.)
  1195. [1:26 AM] Eon: (or rather, haggle with a hag :smugpopo: )
  1196. [1:26 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: It's a reminder - you can kill the hag, or drop her for information gathering.
  1197. [1:27 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Which may not be useful, of course.
  1198. [1:27 AM] Eon: (but it's certainly a better plan than trudging randomly in the snow..)
  1199. [1:28 AM] Faerie: (Well, OOC, I'd prefer if she just died... but let's go with that.)
  1200. [1:28 AM] Faerie: ''She's practically still a person, right?'', Razmik asks those with him.
  1201. [1:28 AM] Eon: "Hags are a blight upon the world, but... We have no clue where we are, so.." Esker msuses.
  1202. [1:29 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The party receives a total of... 920 XP, heh. From the hag, you are able to confiscate her greystaff, as well, whether you choose to slay the hag or not. The greystaff is a length of magical wood harvested from the few trees capable of surviving in the arctic environment, and treated with magic. In the hand of non-hags, it's not very useful, acting as a Broom of Flying. In the hand of bheur hag, it empowers her spells.
  1203. [1:29 AM] Faerie: He'll, uh, check on her vitals. It's all really awkward. :sadpopo:
  1204.  
  1205. [1:29 AM] Eon: "Not in the slightest, they are a representation of all that is wicked and tainted in this world."
  1206. [1:29 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Oh. Uh." Shadow ponders. "We can question her for information and then finish her off after."
  1207. [1:29 AM] Faerie: Actually, Razmik thought that was undead and fiends...(edited)
  1208. [1:30 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Or, well, we can find something less hostile." Shadow finishes. "... And look, it's still rather cold, despite the weather taking a turn for the better."
  1209. [1:30 AM] Faerie: Do her in? Razmik didn't particularly like the sound of that, but uh... He motions for most people (except maybe Kirie, having to keep within the hut) to go over to his side.
  1210. [1:30 AM] Faerie: How dead is the hag?
  1211. [1:31 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... So... Uh..." Shadow turns to Kirie, a bit embarrassed. "..."
  1212. [1:31 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag?
  1213. [1:31 AM] Faerie: (It's at times like these that I wonder how you fucking cut someone NONLETHALY)
  1214. [1:31 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag's dying, bleeding out in the snow.
  1215. [1:31 AM] Mizuki: "I doubt a monstrosity like that is going to answer anything." - Said Alicia approaching the others.
  1216. [1:31 AM] Faerie: If she's not conscious, but otherwise still alive, Razmik'll stabilize.
  1217. [1:31 AM] Faerie: That's true. Alicia's absolutely right, from what little he's heard.
  1218. [1:31 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Alicia always go for the KILL setting. There's two setting on her tazer, KILL, and KILL.)
  1219. [1:32 AM] Eon: "I mean, I only read about them in my studies but.. Hags love to.. haggle."
  1220. [1:32 AM] Mizuki: (old Alicia is back!)
  1221. [1:32 AM] Faerie: But still, he winces at the thought of taking her life, as she was now.
  1222. [1:32 AM] Eon: "Often their deals with mortals lead to the mortals.. err, regretting their choices."
  1223. [1:32 AM] Faerie: (Man, this is going to suck.)
  1224. [1:33 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "..." Recelle shrugs. "Hags are creature that delight in the suffering of people. They eat little kids, Razmik."
  1225. [1:33 AM] Faerie: (I don't need any deals to regret my choices...)
  1226. [1:33 AM] Eon: (they eat little girls to make more hags..)
  1227. [1:33 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "And wolves, too." Recelle is quick to point out the hag's previous brutality.
  1228. [1:33 AM] Tenrei: Kirie stares blankly at Shadow.
  1229. [1:34 AM] Mizuki: "The snowstorm is over, we can manage it without her help."
  1230. [1:34 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow seems to be asking Kirie's opinion on the matter. Albeit rather terrified of Kirie, somehow.
  1231. [1:34 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... But Shadow doesn't do well with female, especially elven ones.
  1232. [1:35 AM] Eon: "I agree. Raz, you might be antropomorphising the Hag a bit bit. They are a blight upon the world, as I said. She must be removed from the world before others suffer." Esker felt an odd sense of conviction guiding her, maybe she was really getting into the whole druid thing?
  1233. [1:35 AM] Faerie: ''...Wait, when you say they eat kids'', Razmik emphasizes with his hands. ''Do you mean that literally?''
  1234. [1:35 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Yes." Recelle nods.
  1235. [1:35 AM] Eon: "I'm not sure how you eat children figuratively.." Esker glances at Raz
  1236. [1:36 AM] Tenrei: (Does the staff need attunement?)(edited)
  1237. [1:36 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "The stories of hags cooking kids in a pot and consuming them isn't made-up fairy tales or anything." Recelle says, slinging her weapons back, sort of surprised at how she didn't even fire a shot.
  1238. [1:36 AM] Tenrei: "Well, we can see what's around." Kirie says, picking up the staff. "Will you give me a minute?"
  1239. [1:37 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: No need to attune.
  1240. [1:37 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: for all intents and purposes, you can treat it as this
  1241.  
  1242. [1:37 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The hag was trying to use it, so she spoke the command word...
  1243. [1:37 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: .... So that part isn't an issue.
  1244.  
  1245. [1:38 AM] Tenrei: Kirie stands over the staff and speaks the hag's command word, taking herself up into the air to view the surrounding landscape.
  1246. [1:39 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Well, to be fair, I don't think there are kids around here for the hag to eat." Shadow adds, shrugging.
  1247. [1:39 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alright, then.
  1248. [1:39 AM] Faerie: ''Well...'', Razmik speaks up, a slight knot forming in his throat. ''Maybe I am. Even if it were a good idea to let her live, it looks like it'd get vetoed. What do we do?''
  1249. [1:39 AM] Tenrei: "...If I fall, someone better catch me"
  1250. [1:39 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The lay of the land is a tad difficult to see, of course, since it's dark. There's no light source or anything, beyond for the stars and the moons in the sky.
  1251. [1:40 AM] Faerie: Devouring kids was... holy shit, that's not alright. In fact, that's so far down the list of things that are okay, Razmik wonders who the fuck even came up with the practice.
  1252. [1:40 AM] Eon: "You already cut off her legs, you could cut off her head too, I suppose. But if you don't want to do it, I will."
  1253. [1:40 AM] Faerie: He scratches his head.
  1254. [1:40 AM] Runic: "She'll probably bleed out at this rate, might as well finish the job, and end it there"
  1255. [1:41 AM] Faerie: ''Uh. Wait...''
  1256. If anything, Shadow was right in that she probably knew something about the place they were in.
  1257. [1:41 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: A red moon shines gently on the land, as the other, gentle moon hides behind the cloud, shyly decorating the land with a sliver of light. The snow seem to stretch on and on for miles, forming rolling hills, covering much of the feature in the land.
  1258. [1:41 AM] Faerie: Maybe they could... you know, Razmik gestures, trying not to use the word ''kill''. ''Get information out of her, before?''
  1259. [1:41 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: A herd of aurochs can be located in the dark, huddled together, a distance away from the party.
  1260. [1:41 AM] Faerie: He's got ways to make people not lie, if anything.
  1261. [1:42 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Half a mile or so?
  1262. [1:42 AM] Eon: "Hags are intelligent creatures, I think it's incredibly risky but.."
  1263. [1:42 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: They seem to have difficulty against the snowstorm earlier, and are now moving slowly again, nudging and nursing the wounded members of the herd, as they set off in the darkness.
  1264. [1:42 AM] Mizuki: "You think someone who already lost it's legs and is about to die is going to answer anything?" - Asked Alicia - "Pfft, go for it then. Kirie is already taking a look around."
  1265. [1:43 AM] Eon: "Maybe we should wait on Kirie to see what she discovered and work from there, if we already have a lead, we don't need to risk talking to the Hag."
  1266. [1:43 AM] Faerie: (Oh, she's stable since I put her back at 0, I guess. Or 1.)
  1267. [1:43 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... In the further distance, complete opposite in direction, there's two towering figures, with frosty blue skin, carrying gigantic sack and weapon seemingly fashioned from ice.
  1268. [1:43 AM] Faerie: ''But her legs aren't even...'' granted, that was a pretty wicked cut, but Razmik's sure they were still attached!
  1269. [1:44 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: They are about a mile away, but their height make them stand out in the snow.
  1270. [1:44 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: That's the general report of the area, and points of interest. The rolling hills of snow stretches on and on for miles all around you. You seem to have landed in middle of nowhere.
  1271.  
  1272. [1:46 AM] Tenrei: Kirie returns down. "Well, there's aurochs in that direction, and a couple giants in that direction." illustrative finger jabs. "And pretty much nothing else. No signs of anything that looks like civilization."
  1273. [1:46 AM] Faerie: It dawns on Raz how easier it'd have been if she had outright died. Oh well.
  1274. [1:47 AM] Eon: (aurochs are basically bison)
  1275. [1:47 AM] Faerie: Giants? ''Why would we have giants around? W, where is this?''
  1276. [1:47 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Giants?" Shadow frowns. "... Those can converse, right?"
  1277. [1:48 AM] Eon: "Were frost giants the evil ones again?" Esker couldn't remember..
  1278. [1:48 AM] Mizuki: "Are they heading this way?" - Asked Alicia
  1279. [1:48 AM] Mizuki: She tries to remember anything she might know about frost giants
  1280. [1:48 AM] Mizuki: (arcana?)
  1281. [1:48 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (... History.)
  1282. [1:48 AM] Faerie: (Nature? ...Religion? I think - oh.)
  1283. [1:49 AM] Eon: (I'll make it too, if its ok)
  1284. [1:49 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Tot nestles right into Shadow's hood, covering the top of his head with the wolf head pelt. "Well, for a moment I thought this is Carceri!"
  1285. [1:49 AM] Mizuki: roll 1d20+4
  1286. [1:49 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+4]: 4, Result: 8
  1287. [1:49 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Go ahead, aye.
  1288. [1:49 AM] Eon: roll 1d20+1 history
  1289. [1:49 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20+1]: 4, Result: 5
  1290. [1:49 AM] Eon: (pffft.)
  1291.  
  1292. [1:49 AM] Tenrei: (DC 5: Giants are really big)
  1293. [1:49 AM] Eon: (they're giant, even!)
  1294. [1:50 AM] Faerie: ...Can everyone roll?
  1295. [1:50 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Yeah. Go ahead.
  1296. [1:50 AM] Faerie: Giants are kind of noteworthy, in that they're less monsters and more a race unto themselves.
  1297. [1:50 AM] Faerie: roll 1d20-1
  1298. [1:50 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20-1]: 3, Result: 2
  1299. [1:50 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: .. Oh, Alicia - the Wyverns have delay in entry and will be with you the next time we play :sadpopo:
  1300. [1:50 AM] Eon: (Giant. Big.)
  1301. [1:50 AM] Tenrei: (also we're still exhausted, not that it's mattered :3c)
  1302. [1:50 AM] Faerie: (''Guys, I think the mountains are moving'')(edited)
  1303. [1:50 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: >because I completely forgot
  1304. [1:50 AM] Runic: (might as well go for it for Lexon)
  1305. [1:51 AM] Runic: Roll 1d20-1
  1306. [1:51 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20-1]: 13, Result: 12
  1307. [1:51 AM] Mizuki: (me too, Koga :sadpopo:)
  1308. [1:51 AM] Eon: (disadv from exhaustion)
  1309.  
  1310. [1:51 AM] Runic: Roll 1d20-1 dis
  1311. [1:51 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d20-1]: 5, Result: 4
  1312. [1:51 AM] Tenrei: roll 2d20
  1313. [1:51 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [2d20]: 6,10, Result: 16
  1314. [1:51 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Thinking is /really shitty/ while tired, for most of you.
  1315. [1:51 AM] Tenrei: (9 :sadpopo:)
  1316. [1:52 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Hm.
  1317. [1:52 AM] Eon: "...I got nothing. I know giants are giant, and that's it."
  1318. [1:52 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Frost Giants are a kind of giant that lives in the arctic region - you would know the name, even if you know nothing of them.
  1319. [1:52 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: The frost giants believe more in their own strength. They are known to keep winter wolves as pets or hunting buddies, and exceptional members of the humanoid tribes (At least being able to wrestle down an owlbear bare-handed) are welcomed to join them for hunts.
  1320. [1:53 AM] Eon: "Maybe we can parley with them? Doubt the auroch will send us on the right way."
  1321. [1:53 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: They believe in strength, and only strength.
  1322. [1:53 AM] Faerie: ''We probably want nothing to do with them, then?''
  1323. [1:53 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... That's all the information you know at this time about Frost Giants.
  1324. [1:54 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Oh, that and they are of an old race, older than most humanoids, and likely used to play a big part in the world, but has since faded from the center of the stage.[1:54 AM] Runic: "We'll they kind of seem friendly enough, I think" Lexon says not too sure of himself
  1325. [1:54 AM] Faerie: ''Strength is just strength, if it's only backed up by strength'', Razmik offers two cents his own way. ''By which I mean, that doesn't sound ideal if we are looking to talk.'
  1326.  
  1327. [1:55 AM] Mizuki: "We should get the hell out of here, just in case." - Said Alicia unsheating her sword - "There's no time, we must finish her."(edited)
  1328. [1:55 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Uh." Shadow plays with his new, Winter Wolf-made cloak for a moment.
  1329. [1:55 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... WINTER WOLF. Cloak.
  1330. [1:55 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... I concur."
  1331. [1:55 AM] Faerie: Razmik steps in front of Alicia.
  1332. [1:56 AM] Faerie: ''It's not like they'll be here within the next minute. Are we interrogating her, or not?''
  1333. [1:56 AM] Eon: (I'm surprised Shadow hasn't made Chunni a feat yet.)
  1334. [1:56 AM] Faerie: Regardless, it was assumed they'd move in the direction opposite to the giants.
  1335. [1:56 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Upon learning about the possible alliance between winter wolves and frost giants, Shadow seems uneasy about his cloak all of a sudden.
  1336. [1:56 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (Shadoow didn't choose the chuuni life, the chuuni life chose him.)
  1337.  
  1338. [1:57 AM] Mizuki: "Raz... If we take too long here they will catch up and we will be on their mercy." - She insisted. - "Giants are big, they are way faster than us all."
  1339. [1:57 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: roll 1d100
  1340. [1:57 AM] BOTDiceBot: Dice: [1d100]: 92, Result: 92
  1341. [1:57 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Recelle has a flash of insight.
  1342. [1:57 AM] Faerie: That was a good point. Big things are fast.
  1343. [1:57 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... We trade the hag with the giant."
  1344. [1:58 AM] Faerie: ''Why would we want to do something like that to the giants-'' Huh?
  1345. [1:58 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Speaking, seemingly out of nowhere, Recelle says. "What if we give them the hag, showing them both our strength in defeating something like.. Uh..."
  1346. [1:58 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle looks at the hag, which is a bit frail.
  1347. [1:58 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... The hag just ate a few winter wolves, right? So, maybe the... Giants dislike the hags around the area?"
  1348. [1:58 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Recelle seems less sure, the more she think about it.
  1349.  
  1350. [1:59 AM] Eon: "That could go wrong in so many ways I'm not even sure.." Esker mutters
  1351. [1:59 AM] Faerie: ''Your guess is as good as mine.'' But conversely, raw magical power is still strength, surely?
  1352. [1:59 AM] Faerie: Unless it wasn't, in which case Razmik would be reminded more of hill ogres than the giants of legend...
  1353. [1:59 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... That's not a bad idea, really, Master." Azura telepathically communicates with Alicia, a bit weakened by the cold. "... And I request a form with more fur, Master, the next chance you get."
  1354. [2:00 AM] Tenrei: "I'd say that's a good idea."
  1355. [2:00 AM] Runic: "I think that'll work"
  1356. [2:00 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Eh, well..." Shadow shrugs.
  1357. [2:00 AM] Eon: "Hmm. how should we bind the Hag, then? We can't have her scampering off." Esker asks, still skeptical(edited)
  1358. [2:00 AM] Tenrei: "They probably either respect the hag's strength, or hate magic. Either way we're in their good graces."
  1359. [2:00 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "I say we just throw Razmik at them, and show them how strong Raz is." Shadow says.
  1360. [2:00 AM] Faerie: ''...I really have zero clue as to what they'd do with a hag, though.''
  1361. [2:00 AM] Tenrei: "Just kill her."
  1362. [2:01 AM] Mizuki: "Seems risky..." - Said Alicia - "Azura thinks it's a good idea though."
  1363. [2:01 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Tot looks at Raz. In sympathy and a new level of kinship.
  1364.  
  1365. [2:01 AM] Eon: "In that case, bringing their corpse is good enough, surely?"(edited)
  1366. [2:01 AM] Mizuki: Alicia picked Azura up to keep her warm.
  1367. [2:01 AM] Runic: "I believe so, the giants will probably kill her themselves anyway"
  1368. [2:01 AM] Faerie: Throw...? That reminded him of Doomwin- Ah. Tot was looking as Razmik. Razmik understood his plight a bit better, now. :firepopo:
  1369. [2:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Azura presses herself close to Alicia, seeking warmth. She's curling up into a ball of fur.
  1370. [2:02 AM] Faerie: ''There's fates worse than death, I suppose...'', but Razmik had no idea on how to go about this.
  1371. [2:02 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Well, either way." Recelle pauses. "A good diplomat is probably good. I say we don't let Shadow be the diplomat."
  1372. [2:03 AM] Faerie: They didn't teach ''the most humane of ways to execute someone'' back at home, you see.
  1373. [2:03 AM] Faerie: (>exhaustion
  1374. RIP)
  1375. [2:03 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: They actually did - "stick sword in thing" is actually pretty humane. Paladins don't worry too much about slaying evil.
  1376.  
  1377. [2:04 AM] Faerie: (''Paladins don't worry too much about slaying evil.'' sounds hilarious out of context)
  1378. [2:04 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Of course, we can also just not talk with the giants." Shadow suggests.
  1379. [2:04 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Then what? The bisons?" Recelle suggests, "I don't think we can talk with animals..."
  1380. [2:05 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ... Recelle turns to Esker, suddenly.
  1381. [2:05 AM] Faerie: ''Yes, but then what do we do with the- I mean, that's just part of the problem...''
  1382. [2:05 AM] Mizuki: Alicia shakes her head. - "How many giants were there, Kirie?"
  1383. [2:05 AM] Eon: "It's our only lead to intelligent life so far.."
  1384. [2:05 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Uh, wait, actually..."
  1385. [2:05 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ".... Can you talk wtih animals, Esker?"
  1386. [2:05 AM] Eon: "Err. Errrrrrrrr, right."
  1387. [2:05 AM] Eon: "Not right now, but I can prepare spells.."
  1388. [2:05 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Recelle uses her Alien Prejudice against Druids.
  1389. [2:06 AM] Faerie: ''But I'll spare you my sanctimony, and fake pity. It's true that the real would be better off with one less of her kind'', Raz admits.
  1390.  
  1391. [2:06 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Well, the decision is up to the adventurers.
  1392. [2:06 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Giants, or aurochs? Or all get on the broom and fly into the sky?
  1393. [2:06 AM] Eon: "Hmm. We go to the auroans, and murder the Hag? That seems a lot less complicated."
  1394. [2:07 AM] Tenrei: "Just two of them."
  1395. [2:07 AM] Faerie: ''Please. 'Murder' is...'' Razmik sighs.
  1396. [2:07 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "It's not murder if they are child-eating monster." Recelle says. "I'll carry out the kill, if you lot are too squeamish."
  1397. [2:08 AM] Faerie: ''You don't have to do that just so we feel better about ourselves, no.''
  1398. [2:08 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... I am actually wondering if you can use the eyes for anything - like, in the stories, hags have eyes with power, right?" Shadow suggests. (A complete misconception, by the way, for Esker and Kirie's reference. Not all hags.)
  1399. [2:08 AM] Eon: "Raz, we have struck down fiends, undead and abberrations together, why do you hesitate now?" Esker was now bemused
  1400.  
  1401. [2:09 AM] Faerie: ''Look, it makes no sense, alright? I'm just reminded of olden ladies, greatmothers... that kind of person. I know it's misguided.''
  1402. [2:09 AM] Mizuki: "Two giants, it might be worth a try." - Said Alicia - "We can probably deal with them somehow if things go south."
  1403. [2:10 AM] Faerie: Razmik draws Salamander. ''...Does anyone object?''
  1404. [2:10 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "Yeah, well... Don't worry about it too much, fam." Shadow pats Razmik on the shoulder. "It's part of their natural defense, a disguise to weaken the heart of their foe. So hey, go for broke, fam."
  1405. [2:10 AM] Runic: Lexon leans towards Razmiks ear, "olden ladies? Cmon man she's as ugly as a fiend"
  1406. [2:10 AM] Mizuki: (FUGGIN MURDER HER ALREADY)
  1407. [2:10 AM] Tenrei: "It's a fiend to be put down." Kirie nods.
  1408. [2:10 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (kek)
  1409. [2:10 AM] Eon: (mizupls)
  1410. [2:11 AM] Mizuki: (:sadpopo:)
  1411. [2:11 AM] Faerie: (Yeah, well, why didn't you murder her earlier ;_;)
  1412. [2:11 AM] Runic: (MIZU IS RIGHT)
  1413. [2:11 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (>mizu is the murderhobo of the group)
  1414. [2:11 AM] Runic: (MURDER)
  1415. [2:11 AM] Eon: "I can speak with the Aurons, provided we take a rest first so I can prepare Speak with Animals. That would be significantly less risky, or at least, more reliable."
  1416. [2:12 AM] Faerie: Nothing to be done. Razmik knew killing someone defenseless could never be truly justified, but it was no evil that drove him to drive the blade through her heart.
  1417. [2:12 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: "... Huh, that's really useful." Recelle nods. "Druids are amazing."
  1418. [2:12 AM] Eon: Esker nods along, letting the praise go to her head.
  1419. [2:12 AM] Faerie: ''...sorry.''
  1420. [2:13 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (It's late - while we can keep going, we can also end here, and have the group take a short break, changing a spell for Esker, and proceed to talk with the aurochs? Or perhaps turn to the giant and converse there?)
  1421.  
  1422. [2:13 AM] Faerie: He then motions with his head, the group's side. To the aurochs? Razmik wasn't sure, nor did he particularly care where they went.
  1423. [2:13 AM] Eon: (I'm fairly its considered 'horrifically late' for you all so ;-;)
  1424. [2:14 AM] Faerie: (I think the aurochs idea is very good)
  1425. [2:14 AM] Mizuki: (uh, it's already 06:13, for me :sadpopo:)
  1426. [2:14 AM] Runic: ( Yeah we should end it here for tonight)
  1427. [2:14 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: (it's not late if it's early :rainbowpopo: )
  1428. [2:14 AM] Eon: (I guess it's 'horrifically early' then :smugpopo: )
  1429. [2:14 AM] Eon: so is the hag dead for reals
  1430. [2:15 AM] Eon: like dead dead with sword through the heart
  1431. [2:15 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: As mentioned before, 920 XP ... Make that 1020 XP, actually. If you are not level 7, instead receive double experience. If anyone reached level 8 from the 1020, let me know.
  1432. [2:15 AM] Eon: (1k away :rainbowpopo: )
  1433. [2:16 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ....
  1434. [2:16 AM] Mizuki: "Aurons then?" - Asked Alicia approaching the hag and cutting her head off - "Uh... Just in case we end up crossing paths with those giants."
  1435. [2:17 AM] Tenrei: (Thanks Koga~)
  1436. [2:17 AM] Mizuki: Putting the head to the side, she buried the hag's body in the snow.
  1437. [2:17 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Shadow ponders for a moment, searching and picking through the hag's body.
  1438. [2:17 AM] Faerie: She's fucking dead as hell, Tim.
  1439. [2:17 AM] Runic: "I'm for the ice giants idea personally"
  1440. [2:17 AM] Tenrei: (Just hit 7 then~)
  1441. [2:17 AM] Faerie: (I'm level 8)
  1442. [2:17 AM] Mizuki: (I mean, we're taking the head with us)
  1443. [2:17 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Finding nothing else of value, Shadow seems a bit sad.
  1444. [2:17 AM] Faerie: (AHAHAHAHAHA)
  1445. [2:17 AM] Eon: "I vote aurons, personally."
  1446. [2:17 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ...
  1447. [2:18 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Ok. Everyone else but Razmik, that's not level 8, receive another 1020 XP, capping at total 34000
  1448. [2:18 AM] Faerie: (I told a friend about this shit, and he was like
  1449. ''yuki onna more like
  1450. youkill oma
  1451. the joke is that oma is german for grandma'')
  1452. [2:18 AM] Eon: "Totally not because I have never talked to aurons before or anything! It's definitely because it would probably be more reliable as a plan!"
  1453. [2:18 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Kirie, you are further behind than everyone else, so.... Receive additional 2040 XP (for total of 3060) instead.
  1454. [2:18 AM] Eon: (ding.)
  1455. [2:18 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: That's all.
  1456. [2:19 AM] Eon: (oh sweet an ASI
  1457. [2:19 AM] Faerie: (Youkill oma)
  1458. [2:19 AM] Tenrei: (Blizzard-tier catchup mechanics)
  1459. [2:19 AM] Tenrei: (Thanks Koga~)
  1460. [2:19 AM] Mizuki: Alicia then tied the head to her belt, a bit disgusted.
  1461. [2:19 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: ( Ahaha, it's a problem more for me if everyone's too spreaded apart in level )
  1462. [2:19 AM] Mizuki: (just in case :sadpopo:)
  1463. [2:20 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alicia gained the prestiege class, head hunter :rainbowpopo:
  1464. [2:20 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: j/k
  1465.  
  1466. [2:20 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Alrighty, we'll end it here for now.
  1467. [2:20 AM] Eon: "Funny. Hags of lore usually carry other humanoid heads around. Are you aspiring to be one?" Esker jabs Alicia jokingly
  1468. [2:20 AM] Eon: (Hey I can turn into a bird now!)
  1469. [2:20 AM] KogasaGaSagasa: Thanks for playing and joining us today, everyone. My fatigue's reaching a limit and I am really, really, really hungry. :sadpopo:
  1470. [2:21 AM] Eon: Today was great!
