 +
George: So Hawk has some clue about these guys, I guess?
 +
realtime 4/25 1.58 pm
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Hawk identifies the large creature as a Dragon Turtle, and notes that it's pretty good at rocking ships.
 +
Hawk also remembers stories about these Aquatic Elven sea pirates and their charismatic captain. They make their living taking the rich hostage and prefer nonlethal means, if possible.
 +
round 1
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Dragon Turtle Ram! 46
 +
The Dragon Turtle rams the ship, causing it to violently rock to the side.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Reflex Save, DC 12: 14 9 3 9 11 7
 +
Melanie's Reflex Save 22
 +
Most of the nobles fall on their butts. Melanie simply rocks in place.
 +
Several more pirates board the ship.
 +
Chris: I hope if we all have to make reflex saves, that the pirates have to as well.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yup.
 +
Wizards, Reflex Save, DC 12: 15 6 9 20 15 15
 +
Fighters, Reflex Save, DC 12: 13 14
 +
...naturally this is when I forget to calculate their saves.
 +
First Mate, Reflex Save, DC 12: 22
 +
Captain Limon's, Reflex Save, DC 12: 23
 +
Most of the Pirates perform a quick hop in sync with the ram. Except for ol' Billy...
 +
Captain Limon: Billy, we practiced! Remember?
 +
Whatever. Capture them all.
 +
Start with the rich ones first!
 +
Chris: I see two wizard fails there. Was that just a mistaken roll?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Wizards rolled 15 and 6. The crew at the...front...er bow arrived afterwards.
 +
The bottom crew just arrived, that's their turn.
 +
Chris: Ok. Are they just leaping out of the water or riding something?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Dramatic leap!
 +
Captain Limon is a pirate with style.
 +
A cloud of foul vapors rises on deck as Wizard A points his finger and casts arcane words.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Noble D & F's Fort Saves vs DC 15 2 13
 +
Fighter A draws his sap along the way and tries to knock a Noble out.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): FF AC 20 for 7 nonlethal damage
 +
Fighter B tries to KO the one standing nobleman: FF AC 14 for 3 nonlethal damage
 +
Wizard B stands up, reads from her spellbook, and a thin column of ice blasts Flier's front legs.
 +
(I'll write all player-effects one I'm done moving the enemies)
 +
The First Mate advances and conjures a whip of pure water.
 +
Captain Limon leaps down and draws a beautiful short spear.
 +
Captain Limon: Excellent, Excellent! As you can see, Captain, you are outnumbered. Surrender and we can skip the unpleasantries.
 +
Melanie Mel snorts
 +
Melanie Mel: Well, maybe I won't be bored for another four days. You noble idiots! Get below deck!
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (To GM) rolling 1d6+4
 +
(
 +
3
 +
)+4
 +
= 7
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): I wrote a handout, "Round 1 Shenanigans" to explain what the PCs have to deal with.
 +
Reflex Save DC 12 or fall prone
 +
Fleir needs a DC 15 Reflex Save to halve 7 cold subdual damage and not fall prone
 +
Claire and Hawk need a DC 15 Fort Save or be sickened for 4 rounds
 +
And with that, the really high initiative battle may continue!
 +
Party is up
 +
Chris:
 +

 +
Fleir : Reflex
 +
Save 13
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): ...
 +
Chris: Maybe I would be better off just jumping in the water.
 +
Fi and Fleir scramble for a moment.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So, fall down, stand up and...?
 +
Chris: Should I assume that it is very windy and cloud based spells will dissipate quickly?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You're guessing it should last for about 4 rounds in this wind.
 +
Chris: 20' radius is big on a boat...
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yeah, it's huge
 +
Chris: Oh well. Fi can't help herself.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Oh, My spell was a 20 diameter...gotta fix that

 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Don't forget you spent a move action to stand up
 +
Chris: Yeah. I just fixed that.
 +

Chris: roll a 1 stupid poopy face
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Captain Limon (Charmed Life!) vs cloud: 8
 +
lol
 +
Fi: YES!
 +
Captain Limon: What is that dirt elf doing? Never mind that. No one is paying attention to me!
 +
Captain Limon seems to ramble on about how he's no longer the object of everyone's focus.
 +
Chris: Chaaadd, I don't see the handout that you claimed to have made.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The handout is readable by everyone.
 +
Before you move during Round 1, please look at the "Round 1 Shenanigans" handout.
 +
Hawk Hubertins:
 +
Hawk Hubertins : Reflex
 +
Save 17
 +
Hawk Hubertins : Fortitude
 +
Save 19
 +
George: Ok, that's it. I'm rolling far too well right now. That means that when i need to roll a 3 later, I'm going to roll a 2...
 +
Hawk not only keeps his footing, but also wards off vertigo.
 +
Cat:
 +
Nidranisan : Reflex
 +
Save 5
 +
Nidri is...not so lucky.
 +
Cat: lolz.
 +
i don't actually need to stand up. i can sprout wings lying down right? :)
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yup, no problem there.
 +
Cat: i'm-a do that.
 +
Nidranisan : Revelation (lvl 7)
 +
Class: Oracle
 +
Wings of Terror
 +
if anyone's curious, nidri now has "a pair of enormous, batlike demon wings"
 +
in addition to her usual little wings.
 +
can i also take off and fly or do i have to stand first?
 +
George: Mechanics question: Do the nobles count as allies for purposes of moving through their squares?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The nobles count as allies
 +
Cat: 1 minute is....6 rounds?
 +
George: 1 minute is 10 rounds.
 +
Cat: sweeeeet.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You can fly without standing.
 +
FLY RULEZ
 +
You need to move half your speed in a straight line.
 +
Cat: i got 10 rounds of wings until i have to burn another use. (i have 7 uses)
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): If you want to break this rule, make a fly check!
 +
Cat: so, fly speed 60 with good maneuverability.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Note that there are two different clouds on deck.
 +
Cat: what's the fly dc?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): What are you trying to do? The stunt changes the DC.
 +
Cat: i assume hover is relevant.
 +
like if i want to fly somewhere and hang out.
 +
or fly not in a straight line...that's the other thing.
 +
i guess i should just look at the fly skill real quick :)
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yeah, that will be best.
 +
Cat: ooooh.
 +
i can totally flirt with danger.
 +
i.e. failing by 5 or more.
 +
 +
Hawk Hubertins is activating his Bard ability, Inspire Courage +2
 +
Hawk Hubertins: +2 morale bonus to attack, damage, and save vs fear & charm
 +
Inspire Courage +2 uses remaining: 28
 +
Note: Effect lasts for 2 rounds after song has ended.
 +
Cat: (spoilerz my fly check is 12)
 +
George: I know, shocking that Hawk's first round is spent singing.
 +
Hawk escapes the cloud and begins a rousing tale.
 +
Cat: pretty much want to hover above the red cloud.
 +
well, maybe if i go up over the green cloud first it's clearer that i can do it without going up more than 45 degrees.
 +
do i need to make sure i don't roll a 1 or do i auto-make the 10 given i have +12?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The clouds are 20 feet high.
 +
You need to roll the fly check.
 +
If you fail the check, you have to fly normally.
 +
Cat: ok
 +
Nidranisan : Fly
 +
Check 17
 +
so i can at least move slower.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Normal flight it is.
 +
Cat: so are the clouds a sphere or a column?
 +
that's probably where i'm confused :)
 +
if they are a column i'd rather just get about 10' up in the air so i'm off the deck.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): They're columns
 +
Cat: aaaah ok.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So, 10 feet up?
 +
Cat: yea
 +
if i go 10' over and 10' up i should be fine :)
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So you have 60 ft fly speed, so you need to fly at least 30 feet. You moved 10 across and 10 up, so that's 20.
 +
Cat: but i made the 10 fly check to move less than half?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Oh, I thought you wanted to hover...OK.
 +
Cat: that's if i don't move next round, and hover is dc 15
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): That's your round, right? Sprout wings and fly?
 +
Vegeta and Claire to finish round 1

 +
Wait, Veg failed the saves that Hawk made? How's he going to live that down?
 +
Hernz: lol
 +
Vegeta's just testing his new drunken style!
 +
Cat: yea i think that uses my stuff up.
 +
next round if the range looks ok i can drop a prayer.
 +
 +
Vegeta spends his time getting up
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): That's the move action. Your standard?
 +
 +
Vegeta powers up
 +
 +
Vegeta uses 1 of 14 ki
 +
Cat: does he get both when he's sickened?
 +
ah yeah just a minus.
 +
what did we have before that was ridiculous?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Nauseated?
 +
Cat: yes.
 +
that's what i was thinking of.
 +

 +

 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yes
 +
Cat: i kinda wanna see what melanie's going to do heh
 +
so yeah, are we like, killing the pirates or trying to be all nice like they are?
 +
also do any of them look like they have ranged weapons? :)
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Most are carrying crossbows.
 +
Cat: sweeeet.
 +
by which i mean "oops, i'm a target!"
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Bedtime for me. Someone tell Meghan to do something!
 +

Without their captain's orders, most of the crew acts autonomously.
 +
Fighter A wades through the cloud and shakes her captain.
 +
Captain Limon: Alyssa? There you are! I can barely see a thing through this cloud. Did we capture them yet? We didn't? What are we waiting for?
 +
Captain Limon emerges from the cloud, and lunges at Melanie with his rapier.
 +
Er, Short Spear
 +
Captain Limon: Hits AC 25 for 12 Nonlethal Damage
 +
Melanie performs the laziest dodge ever as the spear glances off her skin.
 +
Captain Limon: That's quite some skin you have there. I simply must learn your secret.
 +
Melanie Mel smirks
 +
Melanie Mel: Trust me, you'd have to kill to get skin like mine.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (more baddies' turn in a bit)

OH! crit = auto sicken! take THAT!

Meghan: ... fireballing the end of the ship would be weird, right?
 +
Vegeta emerges from the fog and gives the Captain a mighty wallop!
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Also, note you're in a cloud, so if you need line of sight you should get out first.

Hernz: lol
 +
Chris: You'll need to move out of the cloud to see properly.
 +
Meghan: I know that
 +
but also... this is not measuring radius properly
 +
Hernz: does fireball catch shit on fire?

(From Hawk Hubertins): Do they have ranged attacks/breath weapons?

 +
 +
Vegeta has 12/14 ki left, 6/7 stuns left
 +

(GM) Chad S. (GM): So you can run through the cloud, just don't stop your movement in the cloud.

Hawk Hubertins is activating his Bard ability, Inspire Courage +2
 +

 +
Inspire Courage +2 uses remaining: 27

Note: Effect lasts for 2 rounds after song has ended.
 +
Hawk Hubertins : Haste
 +
Caster Level 7
 +
Casting Time 1 standard action
 +
Components V, S, M (a shaving of licorice root)
 +
Range close
 +
Effects/Target one creature/level, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart
 +
Duration 1 round/level
 +
Description: The transmuted creatures move and act more quickly than normal. This extra speed has several effects.
 +
 +
When making a full attack action, a hasted creature may make one extra attack with one natural or manufactured weapon. The attack is made using the creature's full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. (This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as that provided by a speed weapon, nor does it actually grant an extra action, so you can't use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round.)
 +
 +
A hasted creature gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls and a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves. Any condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) also makes you lose dodge bonuses.
 +
 +
All of the hasted creature's modes of movement (including land movement, burrow, climb, fly, and swim) increase by 30 feet, to a maximum of twice the subject's normal speed using that form of movement. This increase counts as an enhancement bonus, and it affects the creature's jumping distance as normal for increased speed. Multiple haste effects don't stack. Haste dispels and counters slow.
 +
Fi:
 +
Fi : Strong Jaw

Meghan: do we care about baddies off the ship?

and can I see the first mate from here?

Chris: The ones swimming away on the bottom are fleeing. Can probably leave them be. I think the clouds are currently blocking vision to the other group.
 +
Meghan: I just want to know if I can burning arc the first mate and then nail the others.
 +
shit, I think I've got the wrong number of targets for burning arc
 +
I don't get a tertiary one yet
 +
but also I don't know if I need line of sight on this
 +
if I don't need line of sight i'm attacking the first mate with right hand man as secondary target

Melanie cuts down the Right Hand Man as Fighter D flees.

(GM) Chad S. (GM): Fighter E, Captain Limon and First Mate's action depends on if Vegeta can react to Captain Limon's terrible Acrobatics check.

The Dragon Turtle hears the Captain and considers retreating. But first, it heaves back and unleashes a blast of superheated steam, covering Fi, Fleir, Hawk and Nidri and scalding the ship.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Dragon Breath! 47 Fire Damage, Reflex Save DC 20 for half
 +
Also, the Dragon Turtle provokes an AoO from Fleir.
 +
After exhaling, the Dragon Turtle gracelessly flops back into the ocean. Fighter B manages not to be knocked around by the water.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Alright, please read "Round 4 Shenanigans", especially you all in breath weapon formation.
 +
Vegeta, I need you to maybe resolve an AoO before I can continue with the badguys turn. I think your CMD is higher than the character sheet says.

also, does fleir get the AOO before she hits the deck?

Hernz: RIGHT??? then again 12d6 in almost any roll will kick our ass lol... funny cause I'm seeing that veg has one of the worst rlfx saves of any of us... save nidri lol

(GM) Chad S. (GM): (Why can't I tell the difference between radius and diameter? The one that tripped Fleir was way too small.)
 +
Vegeta needs to make a DC 15 Reflex Save or fall prone
 +
Also Reflex Save to avoid 9 cold damage
 +
Er, save for half but I think he has evasion
 +
Okay, Vegeta needs to make a Reflex Save, but otherwise the party is up.
 +
The winds pick up slightly, and the fog clouds begin to break up.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The two clouds will disperse next round.

Chris: Will someone else be healing Fleir, or should Fi? Can Fi move to the edge of the boat and attempt to shoot Fighter B?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You can fire at Fighter B if you move to the edge, Fi.

Fi takes the opportunity to shoot the pirate carrying the unconscious nobleman. The pirate passes out and submerges. The nobleman bobs briefly along the surface.
 +
Chris: So do, I have Fleir jump in after the Noble this round or does Fi do it next round?
 +
Fleir is the better swimmer, but I'm not sure how we get her back up.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Strategy! Decisions! Mah boi, this is what all GMs strive for!
 +
A huge net for Fleir, I guess? Have her swim to an island and then drop a plank so she can board?
 +
Cat: so since i don't have to stand fleir up, i can drop a waterbreathing on someone probably next round.
 +
including someone who is swimming already.
 +
(basically need to throw on my robe lol)
 +
Chris: ok. I think Fi is going to dive in for Noble B next round.
 +
 +
Fleir stands up and moves towards Fi.
 +
Fi: I'm going to get him, cover me.

Vegeta picks up the noble

Hernz: I might need a heal if the turtle decides to bite my ass lol
 +
Fi: I'll throw down a ladder.
 +
 +
Vegeta has 10/14 ki left, 6/7 stuns left
 +
Hernz: Serene Stride is the feat... pretty sweet
 +
Fi: Or shoot the wizard if he doesn't leave.
 +
Cat: well in that case i won't bother heh
 +
Hernz: oh right, you fly now haha
 +
Cat: yuuup.
 +
Hernz: is that unlimited?
 +
Cat: no.
 +
one minute increments, 7 minutes total.
 +
Hernz: is it limited to 10ft or you just put that there for reference on how high you are currently?
 +
Cat: that's how high i currently am.
 +
Meghan: so do I let the pirates escape or do I go fireball the fuck out of them?
 +
Hernz: just dont sink the boat lol
 +
Meghan: hrm. the only places I can get to are right next of them and I'm guessing casting from there would provoke an attack of opportunity
 +
Hernz: how about the two about to get away? on the far left?
 +
Meghan: I mean...
 +
actually the range on the fireball is 400 + 40/level feet
 +
and I don't have to have line of sight. I just point and say "that far away"
 +
Hernz: hm... that would light up the boat for sure though, no?
 +
Meghan: ... probably yeah
 +
i mean, ,those white squares are ice, right?
 +
you knew what kind of mage I was when you let me on board...
 +
Hernz: LOL
 +
(From Vegeta): btw, my AOO is at AC 28 cause I used the ki to boost by 4
 +
Meghan: Chris is looking up the square map for a 20' radius circle
 +
this is what the fireball area of affect actually looks like
 +
that gets the least amount of ship and also does not affect Melanie
 +
also I love my fireballs
 +
... it'd just kill the captain.
 +
I suppose I could shout a warning
 +
Meghan: "stop or I will fireball you all."
 +
Chris: If you kill the captain, the dragon might come back.
 +
Meghan: ...
 +
Hernz: well, if you are aiming for two, you might be able to aim above the shit and catch them with the bottom of the fireball to not hit the shit
 +
Meghan: I think I need to take fly as my other third list spell
 +
Chris: "ship" not "shit"
 +
Meghan: same diff
 +
George: Do eet! Kersplode the first mate and el capitan!
 +
Chris: Not helping...
 +
Meghan: or cast Fly and follow them, threatening to cast fireball if they do not surrender...
 +
and then cast fireball again. and again. and again.
 +
fire spells under the water are a DC20+spell level. If successful, it creates a bubble of steam and does the same damage.
 +
what I'm saying is "surrender or I might still be able to kill you." ?
 +
I could try an intimidate check...
 +
though if we're ok letting them escape ...?
 +
Meghan: I think if we're ok letting them escape I can just try to help save people...
 +
Chris: I would rather we prioritize saving the noble. I'm afraid that if we try to detain the captain or kill him, the dragon will come back.
 +
Althought we might be able to take him while only losing one or two of us.
 +
Hernz: ranged stuff while a beefed up (i.e. armored up by claire) veg and fleir do our best?
 +
Chris: Claire is useless. Fire immune.
 +
Meghan: :P
 +
true
 +
though I have fly
 +
if you want to fly after it
 +
and smash
 +
Hernz: that's why she armors up and any other spell... like fly on fleir lol
 +
Meghan: I don't have water breathing if it goes under water

(GM) Chad S. (GM): First Mate's AoO vs Vegeta: AC 7
 +
Chris: Fleir and Fi are already armor maxed.
 +
Hernz: well, we got the noble... up to you... maybe ask melanie?
 +
Vegeta ignores the First Mate and leaps onto the ocean. The waves nudge him to the surface and he grabs the nobleman.
 +
Meghan: hey hernan, what would be better for you: cat's grace or bull's strength?
 +
Hernz: cat's grace
 +
Meghan: I might get the charisma one just 'cause
 +
unless someone would prefer I get a different one
 +
Hernz: mainly for AC and rflx... I use my wis for att/dam
 +
Meghan: yeah
 +
I'm gonna get Cat's Grace
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So. Nidri and Claire are up.
 +
Meghan: i got nothing
 +
i'm letting them escape
 +
Vegeta: melanie, you want to take these guys down or let them go?
 +
Meghan: I think I'm going to also take Eagle's Splendor
 +
you know. sort of a "treat yoself" thing
 +
Melanie Mel: Eh, normally I'd play with the Captain a little. But it's too hot...don't care.
 +
Hernz: there's a feat that lets your fire damage pierce fire resistance... I iforget what it was
 +
Meghan: ... ooooo...
 +
Chris: Who wants to nuke the captain and fight the dragon?
 +
Hernz: veg is always up for fighting ;)
 +
Melanie Mel: (To GM) rolling 1d4
 +
(
 +
4
 +
)
 +
= 4
 +
Hernz: but hernz has to go to soccer... I'll be back at 11:30..... :/
 +
I'll look where I fond that feat meghan
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Sounds like you guys are choosing between continuing the fight and letting them go.
 +
 +
Cat casts Cure Serious on Fleir!
 +
Cat: heal 14 HPs.
 +
WHAT.
 +
Nidri helps Fleir recover.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Those rolls are almost as bad as the captain's
 +
Claire blows the pirates a raspberry as the flee.
 +
*they
 +
Meghan: anyone want to help me pick a new first level spell?
 +
Melanie Mel: Go on, get out of here. Take your silly Captain with you.
 +
Meghan: I suppose I could take magic missile so I would have something reliable that is non-fire
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Will Save 13
 +
The First Mate hears Melanie's words and quickly runs off the ship, grabbing Captain Limon in the process.
 +
Round 5
 +
Cat: too bad we didn't kidnap the captain.
 +
Most of the crew submerges, including the Dragon Turtle.
 +
Chris: I was thinking about it, but I figured that would mean dealing with the Dragon Turtle.
 +
The wind finally blows away the clouds covering the ship, revealing two unconscious and three prone nobles, not really paying attention to their surroundings.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Sounds like you're letting the remaining crew go. Last chance for shenanigans.
 +
Chris: Nope. Hauling Vegeta back up.
 +
Cat: i mean, i could go bad touch them ;)
 +
Fi and Fleir use this time to pull up Vegeta and the Nobleman he rescued.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Unless Fi is strong enough to pull them up by herself, I assume Fleir helps.
 +
George: Did we save all of the purple guys, or did the privateers make off with one of them?
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): All have been rescued.
 +
Nidranisan casts Cure Light on Noble A!
 +
Nidranisan: heal 8 HPs.
 +
Cat: oh yeah, all the good rolls coming out now.
 +
Nidri rouses one of the Noblewomen back to consciousness.
 +
Cat: also, i'll basically coast back down to the deck when my minute runs out.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Hawk and Claire? Any last second stuff?
 +
Meghan: I feel like I ought to save that fireball thing for next time...
 +
but no, I'm good.
 +
and anyone else who is actually good, I can try to heal a little
 +
Chris: Fi can handle 175 on her own, So doing both at the same time would probably require Fleir.
 +
George: Hawk stops singing.
 +
And with that, the First Mate submerges, carrying the unconscious captain with him.
 +
Combat Over
 +
  </nowiki>
 +
==More fun on Melanie's ship==
 +
  <nowiki>
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Damage to the ship is mostly at the bow of the ship, where two ice pillars slowly melt against the tropical heat.
 +
Melanie Mel: Well, that was fun! Anyone died besides some of the pirates?
 +
Melanie Mel juggles her icicle dagger
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): I added a document, "Captain Limon's Loot" to the handouts. I assume you strip the dead pirates of their gear.
 +
Within the minute, some of the crew emerge and start patching the ship.
 +
Additionally, most of the nobles come to their senses and stand up. They remember some pirates boarding, but then their attention shifted to pleasant fog...
 +
Melanie Mel: Hmpf. Looks like these two are a bit bruised, but they're still breathing. Some rest will save 'em.
 +
Hawk Hubertins: Fi, how's Fleir doing? That dragon turtle has a nasty steamy breath, as you saw.
 +
Nidranisan casts Cure Moderate on Vegeta!

Nidranisan: heal 16 HPs.

 +
Chris: I just ditched the spell template for the cure spells, and replaced it.
 +
Hawk Hubertins: Thanks Nidri, I think I've got it this time.
 +
 +
Hawk Hubertins smiles.
 +
Hawk Hubertins: Th...that was fun?
 +
Melanie Mel: The Captain thought he had the perfect score. You showed him, though.
 +
Plus these nobles are gonna tell everyone about how they survived a pirate assault.
 +
Fi: Sorry about the cloud. It's all I could come up with at the time.
 +
Melanie Mel: Hey, they didn't panic.
 +
Nidranisan: yeah, that was actually a pretty good move i think.
 +
Meghan: how most of them survived a pirate assault?
 +
Cat: they all survived...i think only a couple pirates died.
 +
Meghan: "does everyone have their buddy?"
 +
Melanie Mel smirks
 +
Nidranisan: everyone else feeling like you'll be ok after a good night's sleep?
 +
Melanie Mel: The nobles will be alright, Nidri.
 +
Nidranisan: yeah, poor fleir got the worst of it.
 +
Drianna sticks her head out from below deck. She looks slightly green.
 +
Driana Hodgins: Is-is it over? A icy needle smashed through the ceiling
 +
almost skewered me!
 +
Hawk Hubertins: Is Fleir ok? I have a little more healing, well, a lot more, but only one a lot more that I can cast.
 +
Melanie Mel: Sorry.
 +
Fi: I think we're set for heals.
 +
Nidranisan: Yeah, they ...left.
 +
By the way, lovely freedom of movement on the suit.
 +
Fi: Some pirates tried to take our friends here. I don't think they liked our welcome.
 +
Driana Hodgins: Oh...
 +
Driana Hodgins turns and sees a dead aquatic elf on deck. She holds her lunch long enough to run below deck.
 +
Nidranisan: no no, you're supposed to puke over the side.
 +
Nidranisan sighs.
 +
Fi: Down wind.
 +
Melanie Mel: She's not used to the sea.
 +
Nidranisan: i noticed.
 +
Melanie Mel: Alright, I'll tell the crew to clean this deck up.
 +
The ice will melt in...maybe half an hour. It is getting warm.
 +
Melanie returns to her chair, snaps her fingers to clear some of the blood and flops right back on it as some of the crew strip the Right Hand Man and toss him overboard.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): That's it for me tonight. The next 4 days will go smoothly, so prepare questions and any rolls for me in the meantime.
 +
Also, I'm planning to clear the chat log this weekend. Any objectives?
 +
Cat: i'm not sure that's the word you mean. ;)

 +
George: Clearly he meant "Adjectives". :P
 +
Cat: otherwise, nidri is figuring out what color blue tans to.
 +
Vegeta: thanks for the heal nidri!
 +
realtime 4/29 8:45 am
 +
On the fourth and final day of travel, Nidri finally figures out what the captain's short spear was.
 +
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Blue tans to a darker blue
 +
Nidranisan: well, that was gonna drive me nuts.
 +
Nidranisan mumbles.
 +
Cat: by the time we get there, nidri has developed some tan lines, and sort of idly listened to whoever melanie would chat with (if anyone).
 +
Chris: Everyone is probably sick of fish at this point, since Fi has been providing a lot for the galley.
 +
Hernz: veg doesn't need any of that loot... if anyone does, mark it in there
 +
Chris: Fi is all set. Already has a Chain Shirt +1
 +
realtime 4/30, 8:51 pm
 +
Melanie seems interested in the party's adventures ever since they met Merki. She also talks about some exotic business deals she had to strike up.
 +
Melanie Mel: Giants actually like to wear elastic clothing. One size fits all, I guess.
 +
It's easier to sell them enchanted clothing, since it resizes itself.
 +
If you can force a goblin to focus on a task, they're surprisingly inventive. Mr Snock! built this thing that organizes my undergarments by color, shape and purpose. Makes it easy for me.
 +
There aren't many pirates off the east coast- I've heard they are afraid of a dragon or something.
 +
When Melanie isn't eating or sleeping, she's comparing rumors with the nobles.

Revision as of 11:43, 2 May 2016

June 25, 1236 AD (Afternoon)

Dakan Manor

 
Chris: No, still only +4 BAB. Fi only just hit +5 BAB.
Gah. Her touch AC just tanked...
And now she needs new barding. And a saddle...
George: Fleir just got large?
Chris: yes
Hernz: touch AC gone, but more HP and way more damage... who needs touch AC? ;)

Hernz Pummels Fleir
Hernz: Att: 26 || 24 || 19
Damage (P): 6 || 5 || 7
Crit Confirm: 19 || 10 || 18
Crit Dmg (P): +4 || +6 || +6
Special 1: Total all damage before applying DR. Special 2: Target sicken on crit for 1 round. No Save. Special 3: If hit by first hit, Fort DC 19 or stun for 1 round Special 4: Attacks treated as Magic.
I was testing something out... ignore that... wanted to try and whisper that... clearly failed
Cat: lol.
well, i don't have access to cat's grace so.
SORRY.
(From Vegeta): Chad, veg sheet is all updated save that one feat... I'm qinggong ability, though I'm leaving towards snatch arrow
Chris: Fi: 31HP; Fleir: 63HP
Cat: haha.
Hernz: Do the rest of us all have the same? I know at least 3 of us do. Veg at 45
Cat: nidri at 45.
...apparently i'm just not good at divine casters. all these spells just seem useless heh.
Hernz: lol, what you got left to pick?
lvl 2, 3?
Cat: yeah one each
Hernz: cleric list?
Cat: this was what i came up with on the first read through:
2nd list spells - shock arrow, instant armor, inflict moderate wounds, make whole
3rd list spells - create food and water, find fault, shield of darkness
i wanted the dex buff, but it's not on my list.
yeah, cleric list mostly, there are a few cleric-only.
Cat: spiritual weapon is useless without a house rule to let oracle use cha.
Hernz: Badger's Ferocity? Makes a bunch of weapons keen while you concentrate?
not sure how that concentration works... cna you cast other stuff while you concentrate?
Cat: does it work on ranged weapons and monks?
a lot of the 'weapon' stuff is sort of wasted on this party heh.
Hernz: all weapons I think
let me check
yup, all weapons... won't stack with Keen Weapon if we ever get that property in our weaps, but until then... you can do 1 weap/3 levels
Cat: doesn't say it works for monks.
Hernz: BUT, concentration = can't cast anything else.... that might suck
Cat: yeah
the shock arrow one kinda sucks, but i may grab it just to have some sort of reasonable ranged attack.
Hernz: Blessing of the Mole gives the entire party darkvision
Remove curse/disease...
Bestow Curse... nasty spell... remember when we had it cast on us??
Cat: eh, remove curse/disease seems very specific for a spontaneous caster.
that's really my issue.
we'll never see another disease again heh.
Hernz: hahahaha
Cat: the cleric is is, unsurprisingly, geared towards clerics.
it's kind of shit for oracles.
i'm not a fan of "save and it does absolutely nothing" that may be why i edited a bunch of these out.
i'm kinda liking the 'shield of darkness' idea...make it harder to pick off the healer, and the total concealment would mean no AOOs.
Hernz: if they're will saves, they'll cripple fighters, and fort saves will cripple the rest
let me read that one
Cat: it's a neat intersection of possibly useful and cool thing character wise.
Hernz: yup, like invisibility... but evil invisibility
Cat: it's not evil. it's just...dark ;)
Chris: Can Fi custom order large mithral chain barding for 1400GP?
Hernz: Searing Light (no save)? Summon 3?
Cat: not ready to commit to another summon yet.
Hernz: but you're right... nothing too great for you
Cat: yeah, they're not terrible.
just nothing that's like "YES, THAT"
honestly the 2s are worse than the 3s i think.
i considered "silent table" given all the weird shit we discuss these days ;)
too small and too short duration though.
er, also cleric only, not oracle. THANKS.
Hernz: does oracle get to dump them on the fly for heals?
Cat: i get all cure spells.
so basically, yes.
Chris: And I get all summon nature's ally. :-P
Cat: see, if i have the darkness thing, i'm more likely to be able to get in someone's face for a touch attach.
Chris: hehehe... Call lightning.
Cat: lol.
haha giant fleir is awesome.
oh god skills. that's what i forgot.
Hernz: max out swim
Cat: :P
Chris: Pup Shape?!?! SRSLY?
Cat: wat.
mm i could dump a point in k local ;)
i have like 2 skill points kicking around. and no, i'm not putting them in swim. ;)
Hernz: k arcana or planes? to identify all the random shit we encounter?
Cat: yea i have arcana at 6 and planes at 8
i could boost either or
i'm just thinking one point in a different knowledge actually lets me roll the check.
mostly thinking local/nature/geography for that.
realtime 4/8 8:26 am
(GM) Chad S. (GM): 70% chance for custom barding in Harvest Wharf: 38
There is a salesman who sells a Large Mithral Barding for Fleir.
George: One more third and another 1st level spell learned, and I have to pick a feat.
Channel the Gift sounds interesting. Basically hand a third or lower level casting to another caster.
Or Confusion.
Hernz: wow, confusion is a 15ft burst?? nice! that's a pretty good way to neutralize a bunch of fighters
realtime 4/9, 9:38 pm
Fleir experiences a sudden growth spurt as she returned to Harvest Wharf.
Hernz: I think I was convinced today to take Cloak of Winds
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Hmm, looks pretty cool.
Hernz: it's my "anti swarm of tiny things that chad might throw at us" spell
uses 2 ki... unless I see a shit ton of archers, I might not power that up lol
(GM) Chad S. (GM): lol
(From Hernz): hey chad, ok, I'm a little confused at how qiggong abilities work as far as selection... Can I give up an ability in order to be able to select an ability at a later level? For example, if I give up Wholeness of Body (level 7), for Dragon Breath (level 8)... so I hit level 7, gain nothing, but then at 8 I get the ability? I'm asking because I see abilities at level 8 and 10, but no ability to swap until level 11... so why would they differentiate those levels?
(From Hernz): http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/monk/archetypes/paizo---monk-archetypes/qinggong-monk
(From Hernz): if that's the case, I'd likely not pick the cloak of winds and instead go for something else.
(From George): Looking at feats, can I take "Master Performer"? It's got a weird prereq that's based on some particular setting, but grants a +1 to any bonuses from bard song.
(From George): Alternately, would Discordant Voice grants +1d6 sonic damage to any allies within 30' of me when they make a successful "weapon attack". Would that also apply to Fleir and Veg?
(From George): When I'm performing as an SU or EX (All of the inspire songs count as SU)
George: And now Hawk has Expeditious Retreat.
I think I'm just waiting on Chad to let me know which feat I'm allowed to take. :)
Cat: ok, i think nidri is officially done leveling up.
realtime 4/10, 8:55 pm
(To George): Where is the Master Performer feat? I only see Master Combat Performer
(To George): You can't take Discordant Voice yet, you don't have 10 ranks in Perform
(To George): Manny has been eyeing Discordant Voice for a while. Maybe level 13 after Spellsong?
(To George): DIscordant Voice would help Vegeta but not Fleir. It looks like they are referring to manufactured weapons, not Natural weapons, and Vegeta counts as both.
Cat: so we were gonna go talk to dakan, right? :)
(To Hernz): I think you give up Wholeness of body now and get your level 8 power at level 8.
Alexen Dakan and his son Marksen are at the Dakan manor, enjoying lunch after sparring in the morning.
Cat: i mean, we told shavanni we would.
Alexen Dakan: Hmm? Ah, yes. Come in, come in!
The cooks made some beef stew if you would enjoy some late lunch.
Nidranisan: Sounds lovely.
(From George): Damn, I missed the 10 ranks requirement on DV.
(From George): Master Performer apparently is only in the feats database, and doesn't have a regular page on the srd.
(From George): Prereqs are listed as "Bardic performance class feature, Extra Performance, Kitharodian Academy 15 TPA."
(From George): But apparently I don't have extra performance, which I thought I did...
(From George): So I guess that's what I'll pick up this time.
(To George): Yaay! Requirements!
(From George): I thought I'd picked up extra performance, but it was the trait, not the feat, that I was remembering.
(From George): Damn you gadget!
Marxen prepares some extra chairs for the new guests, and finds a large bowl for Fleir to lick.
Alexen Dakan: What brings you here, to my humble abode? If you wanted to see if Marxen could beat his old man in a duel, the answer is still no.
Marxen Dakan: Perhaps, but I managed to land an unexpected blow!
Father and Son laugh joyously, although you notice Alexen rub his chin, nursing some kind of bruise.
Nidranisan: Hah.
Well, we had a nice long chat with Shavanni up in the forest.
She asked us to come by and speak with you when we got back.
Alexen Dakan: Oh? What about? I heard the Krimson were suffering from a terrible plague.
Nidranisan: Yes, well. More the Redtooth lands, as a result of Riga's new wife. Have you heard about all that?
Alexen Dakan: I've heard rumors that put Riga's woman at the center of things, yes.
Nidranisan: Her name is CF...she's been involved in quite a few shenanigans here, in Mardens City, and then finally up in the Redtooth lands.
Miss Marjorie was up in the forest as well, and was with us when we finally caught up with CF.
Miss Marjorie immediately determined that she was a Lucavan.
Alexen Dakan: ...A Lucavan.
Are you sure about this?
Nidranisan: Given that Miss Marjorie and Shavanni were both quite convinced and very concerned, i am inclined to believe it.
She called herself Carnelian Fetish.
Sagittarius, I believe.
...is there anything else you can tell us about the Lucavan(s) you've faced in the past?
Cat: totally not sure what the right plural is there ;) Lucavans? Lucava?
Alexen Dakan: A Sagitarius...this is very upsetting.
Cat: Lucavae?
Alexen Dakan: The Lucavan...a word I had hoped to never hear about.
George: Charlie Foxtrot the Lucasfilms. :P
Alexen Dakan: This group of...terrible creatures were obsessed with freeing their leader. And to do this they needed much bloodshed.
What better way to do it than drum up a phony war?
I encountered several of them, but I've never heard of a Carnelian Fetish.
Nidranisan: Indeed.
Alexen Dakan: Sagittarius was a Serpentine Archer. Her very gaze turned people to stone. She enjoyed smashing her victims, in particular...
Nidranisan: Huh.
That sounds...not much like the creature we fought.
Shavanni said something about the Lucavan having gems that shattered when they were defeated.
do you know if that destroys them for good? do you know how many there were, or how many may remain?
Alexen Dakan: I saw twelve gems shatter before me.
I...do not know the total number, unfortunately.
I had heard once you destroy the gem, they don't come back.
But...well, all of them were destroyed.
I had heard the Kolphan Family were looking into historical projects. Mister Darius once performed a private comedy show for me. A "roasting" as it were.
Marxen Dakan coughs
Alexen Dakan: Yes, I did not realize what I was in store for.
But he also held the event to ask me privately about what I knew of the Lucavan. He said his grandmother was doing some research.
Nidranisan: interesting.
i suppose we could attempt to speak with him as well.
This CF talked about "the other Lucavan" several times. about endangering them, and about wanting me and Miss Marjorie, of all people, to carry on the mission before they do.
Either she's very confused, a very good liar, or not the only Lucavan who remains.
and has an agenda.
Alexen Dakan: I'll certainly keep an eye out for any Lucavan related activity. Each Lucavan, or at least the ones who were willing to speak, have their own version of conquest.
(From Hernz): ok, then yeah, I'll wait for dragon breath at level 8
Nidranisan: and when you say you saw twelve gems shatter...did you or others destroy them?
Alexen Dakan: They erupted as soon as the Lucavan was defeated...their bodies would decompose and we would see the gem for but a moment.
And then it would burst in a spray of light.
Nidranisan: mm.
Defeated in the same way one defeats a normal opponent? As in beating them to a pulp?
Hernz: lol, love that haha
Nidranisan is so blunt and deadpan about that statement.
Alexen Dakan: Hmm...I suppose so. No, Simill was very thorough about her executions. But yes, we would inflict mortal wounds upon them.
Nidranisan: None of those twelve happened to be a Ruby, did they?
Alexen Dakan: Ah yes, the red dragon.
Nidranisan: Is that one you defeated, or at least witnessed the defeat of?
Alexen Dakan: Yes. Shavanni led it into a pit and caused a cave in that crushed all but its head. I braved its flames and dug deep into its neck with my axe.
Listen to me, a poet of violence...
Yes, I defeated it.
Vegeta: heh
Nidranisan: and saw the ruby shatter?
Alexen Dakan nods
Nidranisan: so either this really is not the Ruby, or they come back.
she did quite insist on Carnelian.
Alexen Dakan: Ah, either what is...
This Carnelian Fetish. You defeated her.
Nidranisan: perhaps.
i am...unconvinced.
Alexen Dakan: Tell me what happened.
Nidranisan: There was no shattering involved.
Alexen Dakan: ...Where is it now?
Nidranisan: carefully wrapped in a sacred covering, at Miss Marjorie's suggestion.
by this point, Alexen's joy has given way to concern and caution, exuding the discipline of a trained soldier. Marxen keeps his mouth shut, but seems mostly curious.
Cat: got your eye on those motifs veg? ;)
Vegeta:
Vegeta : Sense-Motive
Check	36
Hernz: was just on that... and BAM...
Alexen Dakan: If you hear any whispers whatsoever, any unexplained visions, I need you to destroy it at once.
Alexen Dakan sighs
Alexen Dakan: Then again, I don't really know how to destroy it.
Nidranisan: Indeed.
And I certainly don't wan to try, and believe we have, and then find out we failed.
Luckily, I do not have any kind of explained visions, so it should be quite clear if something strange starts happening.
Cat: nice one.
(To Vegeta): Alexen seems concerned that the Ruby is intact, and concerned for the party's safety.
Nidranisan: If you hear of any other suspicious activity that might be connected, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Alexen Dakan: Of course. Take care of yourself, in body, mind and spirit. The Lucavan have an annoying tendency to tempt the weak-hearted.
Vegeta: any idea what might happen if we keep carrying this around?
Nidranisan chuckles.
Nidranisan: I will take that advice. But that's definitely not a way I've ever been described.
Alexen Dakan: Reading Lord Argus's diary... I am certain he was tempted. Every day you are pushed a little closer to, evil.
At some point it becomes all too easy.
Nidranisan: In your past experiences with the Lucavan, did they ever address you by name?
Alexen Dakan: Oh yes, some did. Tempting me with tales of heroics if I sacrificed Harvest Wharf. How I could be the ruler of Alenno if I just killed the Mel family.
One of them achieved mental dominance on Shavanni and...
Well, then they learned I could throw my axe very far.
Nidranisan: Did they always use your name exactly as you say it?
Alexen Dakan: No. Some used Alexen Dakan, Captain Dakan, Lord Dakan...
Nidranisan: mm.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Bedtime for me. Send any more questions for Mr. Dakan and I'll answer them when I have a chance.
Woo! No snow!
Cat: lol.
Hernz: so I don't forget......
Vegeta: [party] he really fears for us carrying this thing around and is concerned it's intact

Vegeta LEVEL UP COMPLETE
Nidranisan: Well, perhaps you'll be proud to hear, Hawk's rousing song to aid the team in battle was about the tales of you and the other heroes slaying Lucavan.
it was particularly fitting.
Cat: also a reminder, i'm gonna pick up a healer's kit at some point heh.
Hernz: that gives a bonus, right?
Cat: yup, burn a use to get +2 heal check.
Fi: How much do you know about Mr. Verdantflame beyond his expertise in strange materials?
Hernz: hey Chris, whats the spell that increases die damage by 2 steps?
Chris: Strong Jaw
Hernz: oh level 3... I thought that was one that you had access to now lol
Chris: I just got level 3.
Hernz: you a ranger?
Chris: Hunter
Hernz: ah... ok, that threw me off... gotcha
realtime 4/11, 9:23 pm
Alexen Dakan: Micel Verdantflame was very interested in learning about extraplanar travel. He asked for a few details on any Outsiders I had seen, and then mentioned his ideas about how some exotic materials could be effective against them.
Vegeta: looks like we don't have to worry about Micel
Alexen Dakan: He seemed more interested in outer planes than this one, but he didn't seem malicious. Shavanni pities him and his reclusion.
Nidranisan: he seems happy enough with what he's doing not to be pitied...but he also seems totally out of touch.
Alexen Dakan nods
Alexen Dakan: Useful when you are looking for neutral, unbiased opinions.
Vegeta: nothing wrong with constantly working towards something you live for, heh
Alexen Dakan: So then. Anything else I can help with? Marxen and I have much to discuss.
Cat: did you want to ask about the logo/symbol?
Chris: Might as well.

Fi shows the armor's symbol to Dakan.
Fi: Do you recognize this at all?
Alexen Dakan takes a look at the armor.
Alexen Dakan: This symbol is...new to me. Where did you find this?
Fi: There was an army trying to take Sendrine from the Draugh Empire.
The goblins wore this.
They also had some of the "robots" working with them. One of which had armor made of Sendrine and Adamantite.
Alexen Dakan: Ah, the Draugh...always invading someone or under assault from somewhere.
Hmm. Sounds like a new player in town, Fi.
Vegeta: hm..
Cat: maaaaaybe it's the hook for chapter 2! ;)
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Maybe. Bedtime for me though. If you're done asking Alexen stuff you should mention your next target- er, person to speak to.
Chris: I guess we should ask Micel about this thing.
Cat: maybe so.
is there someone other than marjorie we need to report back to at EFTC?
realtime 4/13, 8:40 am
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Marjorie is your boss, and you report to her directly.

Micel Verdantflame

 
Micel Verdantflame is actually not sitting in his chair, for once. He's actually packing up his stuff into various chests and boxes.
Micel Verdantflame: Hello. I haven't seen you in a while. I thought you had died at some point.
I'd love to stay and chat, but the Order has asked me to give a report on the ease of planar travel.
Quite exciting, really.
I'll have to stay on their grounds while preparing, of course.
Did you have a question for me in the meantime? Quickly, now.
Fi: I wanted to get your opinion on this and if you had any idea who could have made it.

Fi shows Micel the piece of armor.
Fi: Also do you happen to recognize this symbol?

Fi shows the goblin armor emblem.
Micel stops packing, if only briefly, to look at the armor piece.
Micel Verdantflame: Iron, Adamantine and Sendrine alloy? Interesting idea, but it's too unstable. I'm surprised this hasn't detonated yet.
Fi: ...
Vegeta: maybe we leave that behind... somewhere...
Fi: This is the part that survived the boom.
Cat: do we know who "the Order" is? i feel like he's talked about it before?
Hernz: I don't recall
by the way, I assume you did a magic check on those bows after the last fight? Not sure if we would have taken them with us or not if not magic
Cat: i had det magic up at the time.
believe it was just the ruby.
Hernz: I mean, would we have bothered if they were just plain bows?
Cat: dunno, what do they sell for?
Hernz: 30 each (they were shortbows I recall, right?)
I guess, why act all rich and mighty right? we can use the moneys lol
Cat: yeah, that's not entirely chump change.
Hernz: 90, likely sell for like 50-60%... could be like 10GP each...
Cat: yeah but carrying them back basically costs nothing?
Hernz: right.. might as well I guess
Cat: also, chris, did you want to ask mycel about the colored sendrine or just....we'll deal with that ourselves?
George: I think we should ask about the colors.
Micel Verdantflame: That part survived the explosion? I'd hate to be wearing that when it went off. Then again, armor is a waste of time.
..Did your wolf get larger, or is it just me?
Micel Verdantflame packs some chemical reagents into a crate
Vegeta: what about these different colored rocks?
Micel Verdantflame: What different colored- oh. Oh.
Micel Verdantflame scrambles a bit to grab some more ingredients.
Micel spends a few minutes observing the rocks.
Micel Verdantflame: Hmm. These are also Sendrine, but...their properties are slightly different.
Where do you find these things?
I'll give you 2000 pieces of gold for each.
Hernz: uh, we def need some of this moneys, much more than more arrows :)
(should have had fleir grab a rock instead! lol)
wait, I think we told veg... yeah, we told veg to do so lol
Chad, did we convert any of these to weaps with the smith in the forest? I forget
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You converted at least one of them into more arrows.
Hernz: thanks. I say we sell the other 6... 12k GP is much needed
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You turned one of the Green Orbs into arrows
Hernz: what was the white rock btw? I know it was special... I forget what it was?
George: The holographic imager, wasn't it?
Message from Merki thing.
Hernz: oh right

Vegeta says sell the rocks
Cat: happy to sell any red and remaining green.
can't remember if we had enough blue to do anything useful with it.
...looks like we have 3 red, 1 green, 2 blue unused.
i wouldn't mind keeping 1 blue and selling the other 5.
still a pretty good income.
also...no response on the goblin armor emblem? :)
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Symbol? What symbol? Oh. Hmmm.
Micel Verdantflame shrugs
Hernz: I'm ok with keeping one blue, sure
Micel Verdantflame: Hmm, not affiliated with any planar groups I know of.
Maybe it's some kind of warlord's symbol?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So it sounds like you want to sell 5 gems for 10000 gp? Someone write that down.
Hernz: editing loot sheet
Cat: i mean, we could let the rest of the party weigh in :P
Hernz: yup... putting it there cause we don't even have noted that we converted one to arrows lol
Cat: sure and put the 2K each
and we can just jot down when ppl are here which ones we sold.
Hernz: ok, edited, and noted our vote to sell
Nidranisan: who is the Order? Will your talk be open to the public?
Micel Verdantflame: The public?
Micel Verdantflame drops his box
Micel Verdantflame: The last time we tried to talk to "The Public" about interplanar travel, they accused us of summoning devils to this plane and tried to kill us.
In fact, they did kill a few. So no, this meeting will certainly NOT be Public.
Micel Verdantflame sighs
Micel Verdantflame: If you wish, I can get you an invite, even though it will be difficult to follow.
Some of my colleagues will find you when the event is ready.
Cat: the beauty of silence.
Nidranisan: that would be excellent.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Sleepy time. Night night, guys.
Cat: g'night!
realtime 4/15 8:45 pm
The party finishes its monetary deal with Micel, and he continues packing his equipment.
Hernz: crap, I forget where we were off to next
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Talking to NPCs, I guess. Melanie did offer you guys a trip to the Isle of the Sun, as vacation.
George: Yay! Off to the hot springs episode! ;)
Hernz: Hawk ok with selling stones?
George: Yeah.
Hernz: to the hot springs.... yay, veg's fave place...
So just so that we're all on the same page, we should each mark 2000GPs on our chars.... who's keeping the remaining blue rock?
realtime 4/16 7:22 pm
Cat: yay vacation.
i don't really care who carries the blue rock, i wanted to keep one in case we decide we're still dealing with a bunch of outsiders and need to get more weapons made.
which has generally been a "party" possession much like the headband, robe, ruby etc.
"ruby"
Chris: I'm fine with selling those. I guess we're done with Micel, and we've got an invite for his presentation.

East Ferren Trading Company

 
realtime 4/17, 7:21 pm
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Just to hurry things up...
Eventually the party returns to the East Ferren Trading Company. Melanie is in her sales department, evaluating some artwork.
Melanie Mel: Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Yeah. Less Red. Too dangerous. More Blue, nice and calm colors.
"Trade not for today, but tomorrow?" Oh come on, people.
I need a better slogan than that.
Melanie Mel yawns
Melanie Mel: Hey hey, party people! What can I help you with?
Fi: "EFTC, Bringing the World Together"

Fi shrugs.
Melanie Mel: Even Fi's got better ideas than you guys. What's up, Fi?
Fi: Oh, we got back with Majorie recently. Don't know if she told you, but it was pretty crazy up there.
Melanie Mel: Yeah, she said a bit about the fight. Lucavan or somethin'?
Melanie Mel shrugs
Melanie Mel: Probably just a poser.
...Did Fleir get bigger? Or...hey Vegeta. Always quiet.

Vegeta politely nods
Melanie Mel sighs
Melanie Mel: Where's the rest of y'all, anyway?
Nidranisan: the...rest of us?
Hawk Hubertins: Hi Melanie.
realtime 4/18 8:23 pm
Melanie Mel: No need to be quiet, Nidri. You too, Hawk, I'm sure Claire's in the back somewhere.
So, we'll be sailing off the Wharf to the Isle of the Sun. Very warm, bring your swimsuits. The trip itself will be fully staffed, and I'm bringing some noblemen and women with me as entertainment.
Any questions?
Hawk Hubertins: When do we leave?

Hawk Hubertins grins.
Nidranisan: ...entertainment?
Melanie Mel: As soon as you guys are ready, we're out of here.
Vegeta: ready when you guys are
Melanie Mel: Yeah entertainment. Sunbathing, singing, philosophy, and of course the fun stuff.
Melanie Mel winks
Melanie Mel: For your sake, I'll try to stay decent.

Hawk Hubertins coughs.
Nidranisan snickers.
Cat: you know we're going to have some ridiculous side-plot mystery or something crop up while we're there.
Nidranisan: guess i need to find a swimsuit.
so yeah, when are we leaving?
Hernz: veg is just glad he never took the Vow of Celibacy lol
Melanie Mel: Whenever you guys are ready. Like I said, this is a vacation.
Don't worry Hawk, I won't tell Sal'nessee a thing.
Nidranisan: Hah!
Maybe tomorrow morning? You guys mostly ready?

Hawk Hubertins blushes.
Hawk Hubertins: I... I'm ready to go when the rest of you are.
Melanie Mel stretches out and yawns a bit.
Cat: so hernz said it's 2k each from selling all-but-one colored sendrines to micel?
Hernz: yup, 2k each
Melanie Mel: So tomorrow morning? Fine with me.
Cat: needz shopping lol.
Nidranisan: Thanks Melanie.
How is Marjorie doing?
Melanie Mel: Marjorie's fine. You know her.
She's kind of an oxymoron of health.
Nidranisan: I was not concerned so much for her physical health, per se.
Melanie Mel: Oh yeah...
(From Nidranisan): I'm assuming random bits like a swimsuit are a gold or two at most...nidri wants to look for a bag of holding before we go, type I would be fine.
(From Nidranisan): assuming they don't implode when i pick them up.
Melanie Mel: She's worried about the Lucavan. I told her not to worry about it, especially if you guys can beat her. No offense, but you aren't the Five Great Heroes.
(To GM) rolling 1d100
(
78
)
= 78
(To Nidranisan): You can find it for sale.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Bedtime for me. Please make any purchases you want to and prepare a vacation where nothing wrong will happen!
Nidranisan: none taken, to be sure.
Dakan is worried too. I suspect they assume this was not the only one.
Cat: also, giant fleir is awesome.
Hernz: cat, does it make sense for veg to buy his own +1/+1 so it's one less spell for you to prep for fights? or he can save for later.. hmm....
Cat: up to you on the prep spell
just lemme know what prep(s) y'all want in general :)
Hernz: hm... alright... I'll save for something else... let me know if anyone wants to borrow to purchase something
Fi: Swim suit? What's that? Some kind of armor that makes it easier to swim?
realtime 4/20, 9 pm
Melanie Mel: You really don't get out much, do you Fi?
You gotta show off your assets while swimming. It's also a lot less bulky.
Fi: Assets?
I suppose keeping you assets on you while swimming is rather bulky.
And I spend most of my time outside.
Melanie Mel: Yeah, well...
Melanie Mel scratches her head
Melanie Mel: Find something nice and light to wear while you swim. Maybe Adrianna will like it.
She's coming along to show off her new fashion line.

Fi thinks for a bit.
Fi: ok.
Chris: I guess Fi is going to visit his friend.
Cat: lolz.
want a swimsuit shopping buddy?
nidri drives all fine tailors nuts ;)
Melanie Mel yawns
Melanie Mel: Alright, see you in the morning. I have a few people to talk to...
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Visiting Adrianna, Fi?
Chris: If Nidri expresses interest in what Fi is doing, you can tag along. And yes, visiting Adrianna.
Cat: yeah probably.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Alrighty!
Nidranisan goes with Fi. (and then maybe swings back by the office after shopping.)

Drianna's apartment

 
Adrianna has moved out of her tiny apartment and is now renting out a floor of a Traderstrip home. Good thing too, as Fleir would have struggled getting through the other small door.
Adrianna Hodgkins: Hello Fi! Hello Fleir. And hello...did you bring guests?
Nidranisan: Uhm. Hi, I'm Nidri.
Fi: Hello Drianna. Yes, this is my coworker Nidri. She was interested in tagging along.
Cat: yup. we ork cows together.
sorry. been that kind of week (already)
Drianna Hodgkins: Oh! Hello. I'm Drianna. I'm one of Fi's friends.
Nidranisan: Nice to meet you.
Drianna Hodgkins: Good to meet you too.
Drianna Hodgkins shakes Nidri's hand
Drianna Hodgkins: I finally got a doggie bed for Fleir but...she's s bit bigger than I thought.
Drianna Hodgkins scratches her hair, nervously
Fi: Oh yeah, that was... unexpected.
Drianna Hodgkins: I guess that means you're taking good care of her.
How can I help you today? It's a good thing you came now, I'll be on my first fashion tour starting tomorrow.
Fi: Oh, yes. I was informed that there was something called a "swimsuit". Melanie said that I needed one to show off my assets.

Fi shrugs.
Drianna Hodgkins blushes
Drianna Hodgkins: Fi, she's talking about your...um...
Perhaps we'll stick with something conservative. Down to the ankles and the wrists.

Fi nods.
Drianna Hodgkins: Is Nidri here for a swimsuit, too?
Drianna Hodgkins Drianna looks through some of her swimsuits
Chris: Time to start the swimsuit issue...
Drianna begins measuring Fi and Nidri, showing them some of her swimsuits of various sizes and making general small chat.
Drianna Hodgkins: Did Melanie tell you, she was traveling to the Isle of the Sun? She wanted me to demonstrate some of my fashion off to the people there...
Fi: Yes, she's dragging us along. Said something about needing to take some vacation time. Whatever that is.
Drianna Hodgkins: Well, I'm certain you are working hard...
She acts laid back, but she works really hard.
I think everything's a plan as far as she's concerned.
Fi: Yeah, I can only assume there is another reason for us to tag along.
Drianna Hodgkins: Probably...I think she's testing your intent.
Fi: Interesting. I'm not even sure what my intent is. Just trying to figure out what the right thing is.
Drianna Hodgkins: I think she's also wonders about that.
She doesn't really know what the right thing is. Curious...
Eventually Drianna finds a conservative swimsuit for Fi, and a more exciting dress for Nidri.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Bedtime!
Fi: So this is a swimsuit. Thank you so much, Drianna!
Hernz: Noooo!! not a full body suit!! how the hell is veg gonna figure out male or female!?!? this was the perfect chance! SUPER VERY NOOOOOO!!!
Cat: lol rolld20 booted me in the middle of that conversation and didn't tell me.
so yeah. thanks roll20
realtime 4/21, 9:35 pm
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Well, was there anything significant you wanted to add to that conversation?
Cat: not really.
just, y'know, find something interesting and catch the look of her face when i try it on and it falls apart heh.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Understood.
Drianna got one of her swimwuits for Nidri. She turns a shade of pink as it loosens when Nidri wears it.
Driana Hodgins: Why doesn't that tie? I'm so embarrassed!
Nidranisan chuckles.
Nidranisan: It's not you, it's me.
I have to be a little...careful with my wardrobe.
Driana Hodgins: I'll get something a bit more secure. The last thing we need is a...malfunction.
Melanie is quite forgiving, but...
Honestly I think she likes when they fail.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): I'll fast forward to tomorrow...

June 26, 1236 AD

East Ferren Trading Company

 
Cat: yuuup :)
i was going to try to catch marjorie and ask a quick question about that ruby.
The skies are clear, the wind isn't too bad. A great day for sailing.
Nidri visits Marjorie and Abraxinal back in the office.
Cat: whether it's after hours or just showing up early or whatever :)
Marjorie Mel: Miss Nidranisan. How may I help you this morning?
Nidranisan: If you don't mind, I had one quick followup question about that Ruby.
Marjorie Mel: Yes. Did you sleep well?
Nidranisan: I did.
I was just wondering if you expect any issues were I to keep it in an extradimensional space for a while.
Still wrapped up, of course
Marjorie Mel: ...I do not anticipate any.
Nidranisan: Excellent.
Just wanted to err on the side of caution in this case.
I guess...off to vacation time then.
Marjorie Mel: That is a good idea. Do try to stay out of Melanie's scandals.
Nidranisan: Heh, I will do my best.
Marjorie Mel nods
Marjorie Mel: Please, do tell someone if you find the slightest bit of temptation.
Nidranisan: I will. Thank you, Miss Marjorie.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): I assume you put the ruby and the robe in the bag?
Cat: indeed.
along with some other stuff, reasonably well organized.
and i take it the swimsuit costs a little something?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Adrianna's swimsuit is free. She has to advertise, somehow.
Cat: lol.
so i guess the way i put it in my character sheet is about right.
Nidranisan:
Nidranisan : Swimsuit
Swimsuit by Drianna
(GM) Chad S. (GM): lol
Cat: i'm just going to assume it has a big logo on the butt.
Hernz: logo like "JUICY"?
Cat: so, off to the beach? :)
realtime 4/22, 9:49 pm
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Not much happening before, but Cat... Happy Birthday.
Cat: you too :)
Hernz: ok, let the vaca commence!

(GM) Chad S. (GM): Birthdays, yaaay

On the ship

 
The ship is well-staffed, with plenty of servants, cooks and entertainers on hand.
Melanie strips down to her swimsuit almost immediately and lounges near the bow.
Cat: lol giant fleir
that's gonna be funny pretty much forever.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Fleir is HUGE. Actually, she's large.
We got two looong weeks ahead of us, guys.
Melanie Mel says
Melanie Mel: So relax, have fun. The servants will...do whatever you want, honestly.
Nidranisan: two weeks?
Melanie Mel: Drianna's below deck, preparing her costumes.
Yeah, I know. Two weeks.
sigh There are faster ways, but not with these many people.
...no wait, one week. Two weeks is the round trip.
This ain't the Draugh Kingdom.

Vegeta has no idea what to do... he finds a corner to train
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Feel free to ask questions and stuff for the next few days...absolutely nothing will happen in a few days time!
Melanie Mel: Is Vegeta playing with himself already?
Vegeta: hmph, one does not become the price of all sayans by slacking off
Melanie Mel: I'm not slacking off, I'm getting a tan over here!
Vegeta: but don't worry, I'll keep my eyes open, you feel free to enjoy this tri
trip*4
George: Happy Birthday Chad!

Hawk Hubertins strips to the waist and relaxes, often humming a quiet song to himself.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Thanks George.
Nidranisan: wow ok, how long are we staying there?
Melanie Mel: As long as you need to be there. I'm in no rush.
Hawk Hubertins: Is there something we're looking to get done other than relaxation?
Melanie Mel: You asking me, gorgeous? Or your teammates?
Nidranisan snickers.

Hawk Hubertins blushes.
Hawk Hubertins: I.. Err... Y... yes?
Melanie Mel: Well, I got half a dozen parties to attend to. Making deals for the Trading Company and all.
You're the reading type. You might enjoy the Llibrary
Library of the Sun. It has plenty of books on all sorts of subjects.
Hawk Hubertins: What about performances? I know some of my companions will enjoy time in the library, but I'm much more about the local culture.
Melanie Mel: Huh. Good point, good point. The Isle has a huge entertainment district. Music, Dance, Acting...you name it.
There's also a huge judicial district. Laws, legalities, annoying order stuff.
I usually stay out of there during working hours.
Vegeta: any battle arenas we can enjoy?
Melanie Mel: Umm...I think so? I'm sure it's somewhere in the entertainment district.
Vegeta: excellent... haven't seen one in a long time
Melanie Mel yawns
Melanie Mel: Sal'nessee said something about visiting those arenas whenever she visited the island.
Nidranisan: what about napping on the beach.
Melanie Mel: Oh. There are plenty of beaches.
(From Vegeta): is this the "across the ocean" where sal'nessee said there were villages being attacked by frieza's men?
(To Vegeta): No, not there.
Vegeta: Sal'nessee has good taste
Melanie Mel: Yeah, she's pretty good.
Cat: i'm ready to kick back and wait for the sea monsters.
Nidranisan: i'll be lounging around the deck in my swimsuit with melanie.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Alright. I'll give Chris and Meghan time to ask questions before nothing interesting happens.

Fi breaks out some fishing equipment.
Fi: Should have brought this on our last trip.
Chris: I don't think Fi has anything to ask. She's too puzzled about this idea of going somewhere without a job to do.
Hernz: bets on what nothing will show up!
I say... Aquaman
but not just any aquaman, pissed off aquaman with 2 flounder fish!!
Chris: Mermaids from the lost city of Atlanta?
Hernz: we're thinking all wrong... it will come from the skies.... spyro the dragon!
Chris: He can only glide on currents of air.
Hernz: a flock of the evil my little ponies
Chris: We're doomed.
George: You mean the four horsies of the 'pocalypse? And Little Maddie of course.
Hernz: Game of Thrones time!
Cat: chris, kick meghan to pop in so we can get to the nothing-interesting ;)
Chris: I've been poking her.
I think I'm only going to be able to get her to be on if she's needed right now.
Cat: heh.

(GM) Chad S. (GM): Feel free to rearrange yourselves on the map.

June 29, 1236 AD (dusk)

 
Three days of travel pass. Melanie has a nice tan, although she complains of tan lines. The nobles seem to hang onto her every word.
Fi has caught a couple of fish along the way. Definitely from a more tropical climate.

Hawk Hubertins blushes every time Melanie mentions the tan lines.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Hawk is now a candle
George: Possibly. That or everyone thinks he's sunburned.
Melanie Mel: Drianna needs to develop some sea legs! She never comes up on deck.
Fi: Hmm... I always thought it was worse below deck.
Melanie Mel: Eh, maybe she's just doing finishing touches.
She does have a fashion show up and coming.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Make a perception check, folks.
The waves are relatively calm.
Cat: woo woo
time to throw something totally uninspiring, like a 3.
Nidranisan : Perception
Check	15
whooooa.

Check	24
Fleir : Perception

Meghan: ... pathfinder has exceeded its pageview limits
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Fan Site limits! Try reloading.
Chris: It's bouncing up and down. I blame PAX.
Meghan: good point
Cat: oooh.
PAX.
imagine that.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Vegeta has been lost to Game of Thrones, I think
He's not training, he's hogging the TV for himself.
Cat: yup.
Meghan: (I was going to swap out Charm person for something else I think)
Cat: hah you have so much diplomancy you don't even need charm person ;0
Meghan: pretty much
and I get a new spell for level 1, 2, and 3
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You should decide on those soon. For no raisin.
Also, make a perception check
Meghan: kinda hard to do with pathfinder stuff down
Cat: you should totally get touch of derp.
Meghan: why is perform(oratory) a thing?
Cat: actually, you should totally get spontaneous immolation.
i think it's second list.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (To GM) rolling 1d20+15
(

)+15
= 29
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (To GM) rolling 1d20+27

= 34
Meghan: ahahhaah
I already had resist energy at 3nd lever
err, 2nd list
but now i get it as a bloodline spell
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (GM) Vegeta's Perception 17
Cat: ooooops
(GM) Chad S. (GM): lol
Meghan: so apparently I'm picking 2 second list spells.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): That's what Vegeta prays for
Meghan:
Claire : Perception
Check	22

hey, I get a bloodline feat, too
Dodge, Extend Spell, Iron Will, Mobility, Mounted Combat, Ride-By Attack, Skill Focus (Knowledge [religion]), Weapon Finesse.
none of those sound like me
maybe extend spell
(GM) Chad S. (GM): lol, bloodline feats
Meghan: yeah
I'm gonna take Extend Spell
ready for super long lasting mage armor? 'cause I am
Cat: niiice.
Meghan: I should get haste
do we already have haste?
Cat: i don't.
Meghan: what level is haste, 3?
George: Hawk has Haste
Meghan: ok
that's probably good enough then
what else do we need?
I'mma change all my spells around
well..
add to them
Melanie Mel sits up.
Meghan: I can get 2 more first level ones (swapping out charm person) and 2 more second level ones and 1 one more third.
Melanie Mel: Did you hear something?
Meghan: what level is touch of destiny? 1st?
Cat: that's a destined bloodline thing.
Meghan: ah
touch of derp then?
Cat: that i can look up on ember's sheet :)
touch of derp and spontaneous immolation are both lvl 2.
Just as Melanie speaks, the boat suddenly rocks, near the aft (ugh, upper right corner of the map)
A giant turtle emerges from the ocean, along with a squad of scaled elves.
Cat: awwwwww.
ADORBS.
(other lvl 1 i've been eyeing was ray of enfeeblement.)
(also looked at scorching ray for lvl 2. if you want more damage and don't want to literally set things on fire.)
Chris: Fi is soooo in the wrong place.
Cat: really? ;)
at least fleir is right there.

George: So Hawk has some clue about these guys, I guess?
realtime 4/25 1.58 pm
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Hawk identifies the large creature as a Dragon Turtle, and notes that it's pretty good at rocking ships.
Hawk also remembers stories about these Aquatic Elven sea pirates and their charismatic captain. They make their living taking the rich hostage and prefer nonlethal means, if possible.
round 1
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Dragon Turtle Ram! 46
The Dragon Turtle rams the ship, causing it to violently rock to the side.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Reflex Save, DC 12: 14 9 3 9 11 7
Melanie's Reflex Save 22
Most of the nobles fall on their butts. Melanie simply rocks in place.
Several more pirates board the ship.
Chris: I hope if we all have to make reflex saves, that the pirates have to as well.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yup.
Wizards, Reflex Save, DC 12: 15 6 9 20 15 15
Fighters, Reflex Save, DC 12: 13 14
...naturally this is when I forget to calculate their saves.
First Mate, Reflex Save, DC 12: 22
Captain Limon's, Reflex Save, DC 12: 23
Most of the Pirates perform a quick hop in sync with the ram. Except for ol' Billy...
Captain Limon: Billy, we practiced! Remember?
Whatever. Capture them all.
Start with the rich ones first!
Chris: I see two wizard fails there. Was that just a mistaken roll?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Wizards rolled 15 and 6. The crew at the...front...er bow arrived afterwards.
The bottom crew just arrived, that's their turn.
Chris: Ok. Are they just leaping out of the water or riding something?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Dramatic leap!
Captain Limon is a pirate with style.
A cloud of foul vapors rises on deck as Wizard A points his finger and casts arcane words.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Noble D & F's Fort Saves vs DC 15 2 13
Fighter A draws his sap along the way and tries to knock a Noble out.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): FF AC 20 for 7 nonlethal damage
Fighter B tries to KO the one standing nobleman: FF AC 14 for 3 nonlethal damage
Wizard B stands up, reads from her spellbook, and a thin column of ice blasts Flier's front legs.
(I'll write all player-effects one I'm done moving the enemies)
The First Mate advances and conjures a whip of pure water.
Captain Limon leaps down and draws a beautiful short spear.
Captain Limon: Excellent, Excellent! As you can see, Captain, you are outnumbered. Surrender and we can skip the unpleasantries.
Melanie Mel snorts
Melanie Mel: Well, maybe I won't be bored for another four days. You noble idiots! Get below deck!
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (To GM) rolling 1d6+4
(
3
)+4
= 7
(GM) Chad S. (GM): I wrote a handout, "Round 1 Shenanigans" to explain what the PCs have to deal with.
Reflex Save DC 12 or fall prone
Fleir needs a DC 15 Reflex Save to halve 7 cold subdual damage and not fall prone
Claire and Hawk need a DC 15 Fort Save or be sickened for 4 rounds
And with that, the really high initiative battle may continue!
Party is up
Chris:
Fi : Reflex
Save	11
SRSLY?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): ...
Chris:
Fleir : Reflex
Save	8
Fleir : Reflex

(GM) Chad S. (GM): ...
Chris: Maybe I would be better off just jumping in the water.
Fi and Fleir scramble for a moment.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So, fall down, stand up and...?
Chris: Should I assume that it is very windy and cloud based spells will dissipate quickly?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You're guessing it should last for about 4 rounds in this wind.
Chris: 20' radius is big on a boat...
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yeah, it's huge
Chris: Oh well. Fi can't help herself.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Oh, My spell was a 20 diameter...gotta fix that
Fi:
Fi : Euphoric Cloud

Fi stands up and unleashes his own cloud, while Fleir advances on clumsy Bobby.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Don't forget you spent a move action to stand up
Chris: Yeah. I just fixed that.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Nobles vs Euphoric Cloud: Fort Save 21 16 11 4 2 15
Fighter A vs cloud: 19
Wizard A vs cloud: 17
Er, wrong fort save bonus.
Wizard A is fascinated by the strange scents.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): First Mate vs cloud: 23
Chris: roll a 1 stupid poopy face
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Captain Limon (Charmed Life!) vs cloud: 8
lol
Fi: YES!
Captain Limon: What is that dirt elf doing? Never mind that. No one is paying attention to me!
Captain Limon seems to ramble on about how he's no longer the object of everyone's focus.
Chris: Chaaadd, I don't see the handout that you claimed to have made.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The handout is readable by everyone.
Before you move during Round 1, please look at the "Round 1 Shenanigans" handout.
Hawk Hubertins:
Hawk Hubertins : Reflex
Save	17
Hawk Hubertins : Fortitude
Save	19
George: Ok, that's it. I'm rolling far too well right now. That means that when i need to roll a 3 later, I'm going to roll a 2...
Hawk not only keeps his footing, but also wards off vertigo.
Cat:
Nidranisan : Reflex
Save	5
Nidri is...not so lucky.
Cat: lolz.
i don't actually need to stand up. i can sprout wings lying down right? :)
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yup, no problem there.
Cat: i'm-a do that.
Nidranisan : Revelation (lvl 7)
Class: Oracle
Wings of Terror
if anyone's curious, nidri now has "a pair of enormous, batlike demon wings"
in addition to her usual little wings.
can i also take off and fly or do i have to stand first?
George: Mechanics question: Do the nobles count as allies for purposes of moving through their squares?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The nobles count as allies
Cat: 1 minute is....6 rounds?
George: 1 minute is 10 rounds.
Cat: sweeeeet.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You can fly without standing.
FLY RULEZ
You need to move half your speed in a straight line.
Cat: i got 10 rounds of wings until i have to burn another use. (i have 7 uses)
(GM) Chad S. (GM): If you want to break this rule, make a fly check!
Cat: so, fly speed 60 with good maneuverability.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Note that there are two different clouds on deck.
Cat: what's the fly dc?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): What are you trying to do? The stunt changes the DC.
Cat: i assume hover is relevant.
like if i want to fly somewhere and hang out.
or fly not in a straight line...that's the other thing.
i guess i should just look at the fly skill real quick :)
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yeah, that will be best.
Cat: ooooh.
i can totally flirt with danger.
i.e. failing by 5 or more.

Hawk Hubertins is activating his Bard ability, Inspire Courage +2
Hawk Hubertins: +2 morale bonus to attack, damage, and save vs fear & charm
Inspire Courage +2 uses remaining: 28
Note: Effect lasts for 2 rounds after song has ended.
Cat: (spoilerz my fly check is 12)
George: I know, shocking that Hawk's first round is spent singing.
Hawk escapes the cloud and begins a rousing tale.
Cat: pretty much want to hover above the red cloud.
well, maybe if i go up over the green cloud first it's clearer that i can do it without going up more than 45 degrees.
do i need to make sure i don't roll a 1 or do i auto-make the 10 given i have +12?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The clouds are 20 feet high.
You need to roll the fly check.
If you fail the check, you have to fly normally.
Cat: ok
Nidranisan : Fly
Check	17
so i can at least move slower.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Normal flight it is.
Cat: so are the clouds a sphere or a column?
that's probably where i'm confused :)
if they are a column i'd rather just get about 10' up in the air so i'm off the deck.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): They're columns
Cat: aaaah ok.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So, 10 feet up?
Cat: yea
if i go 10' over and 10' up i should be fine :)
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So you have 60 ft fly speed, so you need to fly at least 30 feet. You moved 10 across and 10 up, so that's 20.
Cat: but i made the 10 fly check to move less than half?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Oh, I thought you wanted to hover...OK.
Cat: that's if i don't move next round, and hover is dc 15
(GM) Chad S. (GM): That's your round, right? Sprout wings and fly?
Vegeta and Claire to finish round 1
Hernz: catching up
Vegeta: rlfx [[1d20
rlfx 8

wtf!?!? lol... worst saves ever
George: Ouch.
Wait, Veg failed the saves that Hawk made? How's he going to live that down?
Hernz: lol
Vegeta's just testing his new drunken style!
Cat: yea i think that uses my stuff up.
next round if the range looks ok i can drop a prayer.

Vegeta spends his time getting up
(GM) Chad S. (GM): That's the move action. Your standard?

Vegeta powers up

Vegeta uses 1 of 14 ki
Cat: does he get both when he's sickened?
ah yeah just a minus.
what did we have before that was ridiculous?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Nauseated?
Cat: yes.
that's what i was thinking of.
glad it's not THAT. :)
so just claire and melanie?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Yes
Cat: i kinda wanna see what melanie's going to do heh
so yeah, are we like, killing the pirates or trying to be all nice like they are?
also do any of them look like they have ranged weapons? :)
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Most are carrying crossbows.
Cat: sweeeet.
by which i mean "oops, i'm a target!"
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Bedtime for me. Someone tell Meghan to do something!

Captain Limon: Alyssa? There you are! I can barely see a thing through this cloud. Did we capture them yet? We didn't? What are we waiting for?
Captain Limon emerges from the cloud, and lunges at Melanie with his rapier.
Er, Short Spear
Captain Limon: Hits AC 25 for 12 Nonlethal Damage
Melanie performs the laziest dodge ever as the spear glances off her skin.
Captain Limon: That's quite some skin you have there. I simply must learn your secret.
Melanie Mel smirks
Melanie Mel: Trust me, you'd have to kill to get skin like mine.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (more baddies' turn in a bit)

Inspire Courage +2 uses remaining: 27
Note: Effect lasts for 2 rounds after song has ended.
Hawk Hubertins : Haste
Caster Level 7
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S, M (a shaving of licorice root)
Range close
Effects/Target one creature/level, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart
Duration 1 round/level
Description: The transmuted creatures move and act more quickly than normal. This extra speed has several effects.

When making a full attack action, a hasted creature may make one extra attack with one natural or manufactured weapon. The attack is made using the creature's full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. (This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as that provided by a speed weapon, nor does it actually grant an extra action, so you can't use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round.)

A hasted creature gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls and a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves. Any condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) also makes you lose dodge bonuses.

All of the hasted creature's modes of movement (including land movement, burrow, climb, fly, and swim) increase by 30 feet, to a maximum of twice the subject's normal speed using that form of movement. This increase counts as an enhancement bonus, and it affects the creature's jumping distance as normal for increased speed. Multiple haste effects don't stack. Haste dispels and counters slow.
Fi:
Fi : Strong Jaw
Duration 7 minutes
Chris: on Fleir.
George: Hawk is getting Fi, Fleir, and Hawk with Haste.
And because of casting, bardsong is free this round.

so yeah, fire.

Meghan: do we care about baddies off the ship?
and can I see the first mate from here?
Chris: The ones swimming away on the bottom are fleeing. Can probably leave them be. I think the clouds are currently blocking vision to the other group.
Meghan: I just want to know if I can burning arc the first mate and then nail the others.
shit, I think I've got the wrong number of targets for burning arc
I don't get a tertiary one yet
but also I don't know if I need line of sight on this
if I don't need line of sight i'm attacking the first mate with right hand man as secondary target
if I do, I'm attacking fighter a with wizard a as secondary target

then 2 damage to cap'n limon if I can make it to the first mate, or to wizard D if I can't.
realtime 4/27 8:22 am
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Looks like burning arc is a line of effect, so the fog clouds won't block it.
Reflex Saves: 9 23 14
Claire quickly whittles down some of the crewmen.
Melanie's aura freezes Fighter D for 10 cold damage.
Melanie Mel: I kinda damaged the ship enough with these ice spears. Someone knock out the captain already.
Concentration Check vs DC 17: 28
An icy dagger forms in Melanie's hand.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Fighter D's AoO vs Melanie: AC 15 for 8 nonlethal damage
Right Hand Man's AoO vs Melanie: AC 21 for 3 nonlethal damage
Melanie walks to the top of the deck.
Round 4
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Captain Limon finally shakes off Vegeta's stunning and sickness.
Captain Limon: This fog...I can't see a damn thing. Did we capture one of them, at least? Excellent! Time to retreat!
Fighter C and Wizard C dive underwater and out of the scene.
Fighter B grabs the Noble he threw overboard.
Fighter A also bails.
Wizard A flees, leaping off deck near Fighter B.
With Acrobatic Grace, Captain Limon tries to bail from the ship.
Captain Limon: Acrobatics Check (Swashbuckler's Grace) vs Vegeta's CMD 15
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Pfft, this captain hasn't rolled well at all during this entire encounter, lol
More enemy moves later today!
Right Hand Man's Acrobatics vs Melanie's CMD 7
Fighter D's Acrobatics vs Melanie's CMD 7
Melanie's AoO vs Right Hand Man: AC 26 for 4 slashing and 7 cold damage
Melanie's AoO vs Fighter D: AC 24 for 2 slashing and 2 cold damage
Melanie cuts down the Right Hand Man as Fighter D flees.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Fighter E, Captain Limon and First Mate's action depends on if Vegeta can react to Captain Limon's terrible Acrobatics check.
The Dragon Turtle hears the Captain and considers retreating. But first, it heaves back and unleashes a blast of superheated steam, covering Fi, Fleir, Hawk and Nidri and scalding the ship.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Dragon Breath! 47 Fire Damage, Reflex Save DC 20 for half
Also, the Dragon Turtle provokes an AoO from Fleir.
After exhaling, the Dragon Turtle gracelessly flops back into the ocean. Fighter B manages not to be knocked around by the water.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Alright, please read "Round 4 Shenanigans", especially you all in breath weapon formation.
Vegeta, I need you to maybe resolve an AoO before I can continue with the badguys turn. I think your CMD is higher than the character sheet says.

Chris: What's your CMD?

Chris: You only get the AoO if he didn't beat it.
ok.
Vegeta: where do you think you're going!?
Hernz: CMD in sheet says 25 too...
did hawk take no damage from the breath?
nevermind, I thought chad had made those calls... chris did, ok, makes sense
Cat:
Nidranisan : Reflex
Save	20
wooooooooo
also, i know the captain rolled like crap, but that turtle made a sweet damage roll heh.
also, does fleir get the AOO before she hits the deck?
Hernz: RIGHT??? then again 12d6 in almost any roll will kick our ass lol... funny cause I'm seeing that veg has one of the worst rlfx saves of any of us... save nidri lol
Cat: yeah but like 8 out of 12 were above average.
realtime 4/28, 10:20 am
The Dragon Turtle breathes superheated steam on the party. Fleir shields Fi, Hawk and Nidri from the brunt of the blast but collapses, bleeding heavily.
Captain Limon slips onto Vegeta's Fist and is knocked out cold when he tries to escape.
First Mate: Damn! These guys mean business. Get him out of here, I've got your back.
Fighter E grabs the Captain's unconscious body and drags him to the edge of the ship.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): First Mate's Concentration vs DC 19 29
A patch of ice forms under Vegeta's feet.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): (Why can't I tell the difference between radius and diameter? The one that tripped Fleir was way too small.)
Vegeta needs to make a DC 15 Reflex Save or fall prone
Also Reflex Save to avoid 9 cold damage
Er, save for half but I think he has evasion
Okay, Vegeta needs to make a Reflex Save, but otherwise the party is up.
The winds pick up slightly, and the fog clouds begin to break up.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): The two clouds will disperse next round.
Chris: Will someone else be healing Fleir, or should Fi? Can Fi move to the edge of the boat and attempt to shoot Fighter B?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): You can fire at Fighter B if you move to the edge, Fi.
George: Hawk will heal Fleir.
THat's most of why he moved over here.

Hawk keeps Fleir from bleeding out. She awakens, face down on the ship.
Fi takes the opportunity to shoot the pirate carrying the unconscious nobleman. The pirate passes out and submerges. The nobleman bobs briefly along the surface.
Chris: So do, I have Fleir jump in after the Noble this round or does Fi do it next round?
Fleir is the better swimmer, but I'm not sure how we get her back up.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Strategy! Decisions! Mah boi, this is what all GMs strive for!
A huge net for Fleir, I guess? Have her swim to an island and then drop a plank so she can board?
Cat: so since i don't have to stand fleir up, i can drop a waterbreathing on someone probably next round.
including someone who is swimming already.
(basically need to throw on my robe lol)
Chris: ok. I think Fi is going to dive in for Noble B next round.

Fleir stands up and moves towards Fi.
Fi: I'm going to get him, cover me.
Cat: means this round i could whip out the robe and put it on.
Vegeta:
Vegeta : Reflex
Save	25
Hernz: woot!
Vegeta: I'll get the noble elf
Chris: You can swim?
Hernz: veg can now walk on water ;)
Chris: lol
Hernz: had to take it to make it more sayan fight like
Cat: lolz.

Vegeta spends 1 ki point to increase his AC by 4 for the round as he's about to provoke from the first mate
Vegeta: melanie, I leave these guys to you

Vegeta walks away from first mate and provokes

Vegeta picks up the noble
Hernz: I might need a heal if the turtle decides to bite my ass lol
Fi: I'll throw down a ladder.

Vegeta has 10/14 ki left, 6/7 stuns left
Hernz: Serene Stride is the feat... pretty sweet
Fi: Or shoot the wizard if he doesn't leave.
Cat: well in that case i won't bother heh
Hernz: oh right, you fly now haha
Cat: yuuup.
Hernz: is that unlimited?
Cat: no.
one minute increments, 7 minutes total.
Hernz: is it limited to 10ft or you just put that there for reference on how high you are currently?
Cat: that's how high i currently am.
Meghan: so do I let the pirates escape or do I go fireball the fuck out of them?
Hernz: just dont sink the boat lol
Meghan: hrm. the only places I can get to are right next of them and I'm guessing casting from there would provoke an attack of opportunity
Hernz: how about the two about to get away? on the far left?
Meghan: I mean...
actually the range on the fireball is 400 + 40/level feet
and I don't have to have line of sight. I just point and say "that far away"
Hernz: hm... that would light up the boat for sure though, no?
Meghan: ... probably yeah
i mean, ,those white squares are ice, right?
you knew what kind of mage I was when you let me on board...
Hernz: LOL
(From Vegeta): btw, my AOO is at AC 28 cause I used the ki to boost by 4
Meghan: Chris is looking up the square map for a 20' radius circle
this is what the fireball area of affect actually looks like
that gets the least amount of ship and also does not affect Melanie
also I love my fireballs
... it'd just kill the captain.
I suppose I could shout a warning
Meghan: "stop or I will fireball you all."
Chris: If you kill the captain, the dragon might come back.
Meghan: ...
Hernz: well, if you are aiming for two, you might be able to aim above the shit and catch them with the bottom of the fireball to not hit the shit
Meghan: I think I need to take fly as my other third list spell
Chris: "ship" not "shit"
Meghan: same diff
George: Do eet! Kersplode the first mate and el capitan!
Chris: Not helping...
Meghan: or cast Fly and follow them, threatening to cast fireball if they do not surrender...
and then cast fireball again. and again. and again.
fire spells under the water are a DC20+spell level. If successful, it creates a bubble of steam and does the same damage.
what I'm saying is "surrender or I might still be able to kill you." ?
I could try an intimidate check...
though if we're ok letting them escape ...?
Meghan: I think if we're ok letting them escape I can just try to help save people...
Chris: I would rather we prioritize saving the noble. I'm afraid that if we try to detain the captain or kill him, the dragon will come back.
Althought we might be able to take him while only losing one or two of us.
Hernz: ranged stuff while a beefed up (i.e. armored up by claire) veg and fleir do our best?
Chris: Claire is useless. Fire immune.
Meghan: :P
true
though I have fly
if you want to fly after it
and smash
Hernz: that's why she armors up and any other spell... like fly on fleir lol
Meghan: I don't have water breathing if it goes under water
(GM) Chad S. (GM): First Mate's AoO vs Vegeta: AC 7
Chris: Fleir and Fi are already armor maxed.
Hernz: well, we got the noble... up to you... maybe ask melanie?
Vegeta ignores the First Mate and leaps onto the ocean. The waves nudge him to the surface and he grabs the nobleman.
Meghan: hey hernan, what would be better for you: cat's grace or bull's strength?
Hernz: cat's grace
Meghan: I might get the charisma one just 'cause
unless someone would prefer I get a different one
Hernz: mainly for AC and rflx... I use my wis for att/dam
Meghan: yeah
I'm gonna get Cat's Grace
(GM) Chad S. (GM): So. Nidri and Claire are up.
Meghan: i got nothing
i'm letting them escape
Vegeta: melanie, you want to take these guys down or let them go?
Meghan: I think I'm going to also take Eagle's Splendor
you know. sort of a "treat yoself" thing
Melanie Mel: Eh, normally I'd play with the Captain a little. But it's too hot...don't care.
Hernz: there's a feat that lets your fire damage pierce fire resistance... I iforget what it was
Meghan: ... ooooo...
Chris: Who wants to nuke the captain and fight the dragon?
Hernz: veg is always up for fighting ;)
Melanie Mel: (To GM) rolling 1d4

Hernz: but hernz has to go to soccer... I'll be back at 11:30..... :/
I'll look where I fond that feat meghan
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Sounds like you guys are choosing between continuing the fight and letting them go.

Cat casts Cure Serious on Fleir!
Cat: heal 14 HPs.
WHAT.
Nidri helps Fleir recover.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Those rolls are almost as bad as the captain's
Claire blows the pirates a raspberry as the flee.
*they
Meghan: anyone want to help me pick a new first level spell?
Melanie Mel: Go on, get out of here. Take your silly Captain with you.
Meghan: I suppose I could take magic missile so I would have something reliable that is non-fire
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Will Save 13
The First Mate hears Melanie's words and quickly runs off the ship, grabbing Captain Limon in the process.
Round 5
Cat: too bad we didn't kidnap the captain.
Most of the crew submerges, including the Dragon Turtle.
Chris: I was thinking about it, but I figured that would mean dealing with the Dragon Turtle.
The wind finally blows away the clouds covering the ship, revealing two unconscious and three prone nobles, not really paying attention to their surroundings.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Sounds like you're letting the remaining crew go. Last chance for shenanigans.
Chris: Nope. Hauling Vegeta back up.
Cat: i mean, i could go bad touch them ;)
Fi and Fleir use this time to pull up Vegeta and the Nobleman he rescued.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Unless Fi is strong enough to pull them up by herself, I assume Fleir helps.
George: Did we save all of the purple guys, or did the privateers make off with one of them?
(GM) Chad S. (GM): All have been rescued.
Nidranisan casts Cure Light on Noble A!
Nidranisan: heal 8 HPs.
Cat: oh yeah, all the good rolls coming out now.
Nidri rouses one of the Noblewomen back to consciousness.
Cat: also, i'll basically coast back down to the deck when my minute runs out.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Hawk and Claire? Any last second stuff?
Meghan: I feel like I ought to save that fireball thing for next time...
but no, I'm good.
and anyone else who is actually good, I can try to heal a little
Chris: Fi can handle 175 on her own, So doing both at the same time would probably require Fleir.
George: Hawk stops singing.
And with that, the First Mate submerges, carrying the unconscious captain with him.
Combat Over

More fun on Melanie's ship

 
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Damage to the ship is mostly at the bow of the ship, where two ice pillars slowly melt against the tropical heat.
Melanie Mel: Well, that was fun! Anyone died besides some of the pirates?
Melanie Mel juggles her icicle dagger
(GM) Chad S. (GM): I added a document, "Captain Limon's Loot" to the handouts. I assume you strip the dead pirates of their gear.
Within the minute, some of the crew emerge and start patching the ship.
Additionally, most of the nobles come to their senses and stand up. They remember some pirates boarding, but then their attention shifted to pleasant fog...
Melanie Mel: Hmpf. Looks like these two are a bit bruised, but they're still breathing. Some rest will save 'em.
Hawk Hubertins: Fi, how's Fleir doing? That dragon turtle has a nasty steamy breath, as you saw.

Hawk Hubertins smiles.
Hawk Hubertins: Th...that was fun?
Melanie Mel: The Captain thought he had the perfect score. You showed him, though.
Plus these nobles are gonna tell everyone about how they survived a pirate assault.
Fi: Sorry about the cloud. It's all I could come up with at the time.
Melanie Mel: Hey, they didn't panic.
Nidranisan: yeah, that was actually a pretty good move i think.
Meghan: how most of them survived a pirate assault?
Cat: they all survived...i think only a couple pirates died.
Meghan: "does everyone have their buddy?"
Melanie Mel smirks
Nidranisan: everyone else feeling like you'll be ok after a good night's sleep?
Melanie Mel: The nobles will be alright, Nidri.
Nidranisan: yeah, poor fleir got the worst of it.
Drianna sticks her head out from below deck. She looks slightly green.
Driana Hodgins: Is-is it over? A icy needle smashed through the ceiling
almost skewered me!
Hawk Hubertins: Is Fleir ok? I have a little more healing, well, a lot more, but only one a lot more that I can cast.
Melanie Mel: Sorry.
Fi: I think we're set for heals.
Nidranisan: Yeah, they ...left.
By the way, lovely freedom of movement on the suit.
Fi: Some pirates tried to take our friends here. I don't think they liked our welcome.
Driana Hodgins: Oh...
Driana Hodgins turns and sees a dead aquatic elf on deck. She holds her lunch long enough to run below deck.
Nidranisan: no no, you're supposed to puke over the side.
Nidranisan sighs.
Fi: Down wind.
Melanie Mel: She's not used to the sea.
Nidranisan: i noticed.
Melanie Mel: Alright, I'll tell the crew to clean this deck up.
The ice will melt in...maybe half an hour. It is getting warm.
Melanie returns to her chair, snaps her fingers to clear some of the blood and flops right back on it as some of the crew strip the Right Hand Man and toss him overboard.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): That's it for me tonight. The next 4 days will go smoothly, so prepare questions and any rolls for me in the meantime.
Also, I'm planning to clear the chat log this weekend. Any objectives?

Vegeta: thanks for the heal nidri!
realtime 4/29 8:45 am
On the fourth and final day of travel, Nidri finally figures out what the captain's short spear was.
(GM) Chad S. (GM): Blue tans to a darker blue
Nidranisan: well, that was gonna drive me nuts.
Nidranisan mumbles.
Cat: by the time we get there, nidri has developed some tan lines, and sort of idly listened to whoever melanie would chat with (if anyone).
Chris: Everyone is probably sick of fish at this point, since Fi has been providing a lot for the galley.
Hernz: veg doesn't need any of that loot... if anyone does, mark it in there
Chris: Fi is all set. Already has a Chain Shirt +1
realtime 4/30, 8:51 pm
Melanie seems interested in the party's adventures ever since they met Merki. She also talks about some exotic business deals she had to strike up.
Melanie Mel: Giants actually like to wear elastic clothing. One size fits all, I guess.
It's easier to sell them enchanted clothing, since it resizes itself.
If you can force a goblin to focus on a task, they're surprisingly inventive. Mr Snock! built this thing that organizes my undergarments by color, shape and purpose. Makes it easy for me.
There aren't many pirates off the east coast- I've heard they are afraid of a dragon or something.
When Melanie isn't eating or sleeping, she's comparing rumors with the nobles.
