Yep, it's the same day.

You spent the morning with Cressida, the afternoon wandering around town, and part of the early evening scrying Sabina. Or at least some of you did. ;)

Packing and walking out the door for a day of hiking at Point Reyes. I'll be back late tonight. Drag me along.

I am flying to Cabo for a week tomorrow morning. Will have internet but will probably be slower to post. :-)

Very nice :)


Male Human (Init +7 | Per +16 | Fort +16 Ref +15 Will +11* +1 enchant, +4 language & sonic | AC 32 (f25/t19) | CMD36*)

There is some notion of my new work team actually working during that week. I am going to try to comply....


Have a safe and enjoyable trip!

What the hell is Deyanira doing in the Craftorium!?

::Activate Elf Rage::


er... crafting I suspect. ;)

Mwahahhaha.

Uhm...uh. Maybe you should read and respond to the posts of others before you complain about me trying to work in their plans.

Briar was not aware that Fondo was on the walk.

I'm not sure what you're suggesting I respond to in those posts. They were aligned with what Fondo was supporting.

Briar is unavailable to assault the castle this gameday. He is crafting and, after his walk and waiting, is done.

He will happy to go on the morrow.

Briar is spell ready for an assault.


Just as a heads-up, Dandilion is in full Kublacon mode and will not be joining us this week so I will be playing her. She and I have already discussed tactics and the like so no need to tell me what you want her to do, save in character.

Also, Kublacon starts, for me, Friday. I will be offline Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday in all likelihood. If I am around, more power to us, but don't count on it. I don't know how busy I'll be at the con. I do plan to try and keep up with the games I play, but DMing is another matter entirely. :D


Male Human (PER +6 | FORT+15 REF+9 WILL+11 | AC 26 (F24, T14) CMD28)

I will be camping in Yosemite without any reception at all from Friday night to Monday night.

I should continue posting just fine, but will be engaged in much buffoonery this weekend.

You can follow along with some of my lowjinx hijinx (here).

I would promise to look after the Waif and help her avoid trouble, but that's pretty much impossible. If she finds her way to another Cards Against Humanity deck, there is no telling what mischief will result, but no way for me to contain it.


Male Human (PER +6 | FORT+15 REF+9 WILL+11 | AC 26 (F24, T14) CMD28)

Tomorrow I'm leaving with the family for four weeks in Europe. I'm going to try to keep up here, but feel free to drag Nikolay along if needed. His 'episodes' might last a bit longer.

Barael sniffs reflexively, as his nostril parses the difference between spittle and sheen. Huh. A combination of sharp cheddar, with a hint of spicy summer sausage. Overall, not an unappetizing odor. I thought it would have been closer to rosewood, or patchouli, but smell isn't necessarily all in the sweat. I must be hungry.

LOL.


Male Human (PER +6 | FORT+15 REF+9 WILL+11 | AC 26 (F24, T14) CMD28)

More than 15 minutes to just log on to "wifi" and then it's an unstable connection. I sure hope the rest of the month isn't like this. If I was a business person at this hotel I'd have had to check out.


Do what you can and I'll DMPC you as needed. Shouldn't be too bad... I hope!

Briar is moving today and will post his complicated full attacks when he finishes...probably later on tonight. It's more math than I can handle right now.

Found a place in SF? Found a tenant for your place in El Cerrito?

Yes, we have a glorious one bedroom overlooking City Hall. :)

We found a few lag-abouts to take our old house on. They have a doggie and a "kitty" (more of a cat-grouch) and should be very happy in our previous home.


Male Human (Per +18 | Fort +12 Ref +16 Will +12 | AC 24 (f 19/t 17)| CMD 30/f 25)

Whoa... Lurch's new nickname is Eli?


In case it wasn't clear, Karen and I are moving into the El Cerrito place. Gotta keep the home fires burning! :)

Oooh, I didn't realize Lurch was *that* grouchy. ;)


Male Half Elf (PER +8 | FORT+7 REF+5 WILL+13 | AC 23 (F23, T10) CMD10) Luckstone

Lurch once dropped a human who was trying to feed him. It wasn't me. He likes me, but he still has a taste for my blood.


Yeah, there's a reason we say we have a watch-dog and a guard-cat.

Hooked a friend of ours in the achilles tendon when he turned his back on Lurch and sent the poor guy sprawling with surprise and pain.

Somehow this isn't bringing me closer to becoming a cat person.


Tomorrow (Thursday) my internet is moving to our new home. Then Friday the movers do their thing in the morning. So we may be off a couple days while everything settles.

Othday Arodus 30, 4707
- The party wakes all in their own time, and join each other for breakfast in a back room to discuss their plans for Korvosa… and their timeline. After a while, they decide to move to more secure quarters.
- Briar begins crafting and Barael and Briar send out their main weapons for improvement.
- Fondo communicates with a variety of fine folk from Cressida to Vencarlo to the Sun Shamen himself.

Fireday Arodus 31, 4707 to Sunday Rova 2, 4707
- St. Alika’s birthday (Fireday)
- Barael may lose his second negative level. (Sunday)
- Fondo prepares (Fireday) a mighty subterfuge for the Queen, mixing a few real elements with magical ones to fool the Queen’s wizard into thinking the Shoanti were coming to Korvosa in force.

Moonday Rova 3, 4707
- The Queen begins to react to the Shaonti ‘threat’ by clamping down on the city, increasing troop levels, and killing a few Shoanti residents while imprisoning the rest.
- A great duel is fought between Fondo and Nikolay, with Fondo the clear winner though some were concerned with how the two were fighting.

Toilday Rova 4, 4707
- A quiet day of training and preparation.

Wealday Rova 5, 4707
- Korvosan Crab Festival
- Rebel forces, lead by Cressida, attempt to storm the Castle and Citadel Volshyenek. They are foiled at the castle, but they do take and hold the Citadel into the night. Not wanting a bloodbath in the morning though, Cressida pulls her forces under cover of night and melts away into the city once again.

Othday Rova 6, 4707
- Majenko may lose his second negative level.
- Ishani is deemed to be in danger, and Deyanira tries - and fails - to scry him.

Fireday Rova 7, 4707
- Dayanira successfully scries Ishani Dhatri and plans are made to try and save him.
- Barael meets with Corbinian a second time and finishes his dealings with him.
- Ishani is nicely and respectfully buried by the party in the church of Abadar in Kaer Maga.

Starday Rova 8, 4707-Othday Rova 13, 4707
- Love is found between Dandilion and Barael.
- The rat… is no more. :(
- Gear is swapped and manufactured.
- Charlie, Fondo, and Nikolay go on a bender.
- All crafting is completed and the party makes their plans to invade Korvosa.

Fireday Rova 14, 4707
- Late in the day, the party makes their triumphant return to Korvosa after a few weeks away tumbling through the Cinderlands, Scarwall, and Kaer Maga.
- Half the party scries their old home, while the other half waits nervously in Kaer Maga - ready to teleport in. Eventually though, the party is united and spends an uneventful night deep in their own underground lair.

Starday Rova 15, 4707
- The party breakfasts with Cressida and a few upper Lieutenants under the church of Pharasma and many plans are discussed.
- That afternoon, some of the party visits Eries in the Vaults while the rest cruises the town a little and tries to buy some scrolls.
- That evening, Charlie tries scrying on the parties first target - Sabina. While she seems to be flying on something large, the message fails as does the subsequent scry, and no communication is possible.

Sunday Rova 16, 4707
- This day of rest is restless for the party, eager to find a Queen to kill.
- The party spends most of the day in preparation, even beginning some crafting projects as well as a quick trip to Kaer Maga for supplies.

Moonday Rova 17, 4707
- The party starts off early and walks by their old home to see the lay of the land. They find it crawling with Gray Maidens like ants at a picnic.
- They converse with a few of the Maidens, but walk away empty handed.
- By midmorning the decision is to wait another day and spend another day for prep.

Toilday Rova 18, 4707
- The party starts the day early. They travel to the vaults closest to the castle and begin to scry and locate Sabina.
- The initial scry fails, but the follow-up try succeeds and they see her. Vectoring in with the locate creature, the party dimension doors in to confront her.
- As the party fights a large very old dragon, Sabina has her eyes opened by two greater dispel magics from Dandilion, dispel magics from Charlie, and even one from Majenko.
- Returning home, with the dragon head, the party takes Sabina to rejoin Vencarlo for her debriefing. They then continue crafting and relaxing though many plans are discussed and the city is, briefly, toured. There is also a brief conversation with the recovered Sabina.

Wealday Rova 19, 4707
- The party starts their day with a hearty Charlie breakfast and then proceeds to hunt a wizard. They learn on their way that Sabina has been taken, and the rebellion has moved up its schedule… to today!
- The party dimension doors in two waves into the chambers of the poor wizard. Though he’s not there, he’s quickly found and neutralized along with his few guards. The fight felt a little… easy though the devils were a little tough.
- In the process they raise the alarm, a bit, in the castle, and Gray Maidens come out of the woodwork in waves. Combat over the castle level is searched and a map is found in Togomor’s own hand to something called the Sunken Queen.
-The party moves to another level and takes on the gatehouse and the devilish beast that lies within.
-The “Queen” invites the party to her throne room for a discussion, that ends in bloodshed as you’d expect. In fact the whole Queen ends up as a pool of blood. A little thinking and Briar concludes she was some sort of Blood-Simulacrum.
- Examining the small theater a number of devils, including one large worm with two ‘heads’ attacks the party and exhausts them with the effort. Good thing Charlie had that wand of lesser restoration or it’d have been another short day.
- Not long after the party catches their breath, the Red Mantis descend on them! A few quick-thinking tricks and the tables were just as quickly turned and their leader fled the castle.
- Venster Arabasti makes an appearance and the party (eventually) finds his remains and promises to bury them near his brother the recently poisoned King. He then performs a special Harrow Reading for the party and everyone is granted their hearts desire.
- While the party searches for his remains, they encounter the rebellion breaking through to the castle.
- Also found is Queen Illeosa’s letters and notes. More than enough to convict her in even a crooked court of law, and many of her closest allies as well - including a number of infernal pacts.
- Moving down to the basement some undead briefly trouble our hero’s, but only briefly.
- In the basement, the party uncovers the Akaruzug along with a handful of Erinyes. Though it’s a very near thing for Fondo, the party prevails and the castle is cleared!
- Tired beyond their hours the party leaves the castle at Mid-day.

Will there be a chance to resupply some curative wands?


Male Human (Init +7 | Per +16 | Fort +16 Ref +15 Will +11* +1 enchant, +4 language & sonic | AC 32 (f25/t19) | CMD36*)

What we could use is an oracle who can ask the gods, "Do we have enough time to rest and buy some wands? Can Briar craft for a month before all those people die?"

Suggested plan:

Day 1) Day of Gray Maiden Slaughter: rest, recover, craft.
Day 2) Heal with restorations. Craft, buy, sell, etc. Briar is happy to bop to Kaer Maga if others wish to help.
Day 3) Fly/teleport to the Sunken Queen. Whatever Nikolay thinks will work.
Day 4) Enter the Queen (teehee). Get revenge. Take crown.


Male Half Elf (PER +8 | FORT+7 REF+5 WILL+13 | AC 23 (F23, T10) CMD10) Luckstone
