The cleric responds "Suprisingly a lot 1126 gold pieces and 28 copper pieces."

"And do you have anything for sale?"

He says "I am glad to take all of these weapons and armor. Not sure about the book you might want to talk to Kale about that."

On the invetory he has seems to be two well made longswords a well made greatsword along with a selection of normal wepaons of armor 3 more longsword 10 spears, two heavy maces, a moringstar, two longbows, a shortbow, along with a breastplate but there seems to be empty shelf space.

This was what was for sale. The cleric says "Look on the shelf. Gorum doesn't exactly like weapons just to sit on shelves."

Thankyou for buying it. And for that advice about where to find a person to tell us about that book. . Pip gives an amazingly cute one-footed curtesy. Her lightly blue, simple skirt flares out around her, giving the impression of a billowing cloud.


The cleric says "You're welcome"

What does party do now?


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

Maoldrurra is just hanging with his new friends. He's kind of hoping for a chance to offer them some protection should trouble start in the market while they're walking around with so much cash. As far as he's concerned the ladies are in charge right now. If we do meet up with the mayor or other substantial personage of good reputation, he'll want to negotiate a job, but he still has a couple gp in his pocket and is therefore content.

Anna goes shopping for magic items

Pip skips out of the shop/temple and dances (literally) over to where Kale can be found, drawing a few stares in the process.


female

The sun seems to sink even lower into the sky.

Kale seems to wait and upon hearing someone at her door opens it and says"Hello, are you here to talk about magic or maybe have magic items. I don't seem to remember your names but am not sure if you are strangers."

Where is the book?


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

From the back of the group, Maoldrurra says, "These two ladies have a book they were told you might be interested in."

Maoldrurra would be happy to carry stuff for them, but I imagine Pip or Anna have actual possesion.


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

The forum keeps eating my posts. :(

Pip bounces up to the counter and greets the proprietor warmly. We found this book with a bunch of bandits outside town. Could you tell us what it is and if it's worth anything?
Pip holds the book up with both hands for Kale to see.


female

Kale takes the book and then opens it up and her eyes open wide. She says "This looks like a spellbook but the format is hard to understand. It is a spellbook. " She flips through the book some more noting a little mark notices one then notices another mark on a like the last 8 pages and says"77.5 gold pieces which is a lot to commoners."

pip post in website feedback


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Could you come up to 78? 77.5 is hard to divide 3 ways evenly. You end up counting coppers, which I would love to avoid.


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

Maoldrurra frowns, "If you are dividing three ways to include me, please do not. Those spoils were won by your valor and I am already in your debt."

Guys, the holidays are here. I've got a full house and plenty to do.

I bid you all Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

I'll return a few days after Christmas.


female

Kale says "Okay" and adds another 5 silver pieces and then hands a bag of gold pieces with a few silver pieces." the count adds up to 80.


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Pip thanks her cheerfully and steps out of the store before discreetly dividing up the gold. She pointedly hands malodurra his portion. If you truly intend to repay a life debt, you need to be equipped to do so, my friend.


female

Kale lets out a smile in response to pip.


Winter Witch 3

"Do you have anything we can purchase?"

Hopefully you all had a Merry Christmas.


female

Kale gets a key out of a pocket in her cloak. She says [b]"This scroll is for a protective spell that acts like armor made of force and is 25 gold pieces."scroll of mage armor. I have a scroll that summons an unseen servent for 25 gold pieces ioun stone that simply provides light for 75 gold pieces. Also have a scroll that creates a glowing dustglitterdus for 150 gold pieces and one that creates a fog cloud cloud for also 150 pieces. She then looks at her cloak but says nothing more.


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Pip thinks for a moment and makes an odd face before shaking her head. No, thank you. The one that creates glowing dust sounds interesting, but that sounds arcane to me and the last time I cast an arcane spell I got this wired after taste that I couldn't get to go away for ages.

Rolling back the clock a bit

"I have sufficient equipment, Pip," Maoldrurra replies. "And I still have pride and honor enough that I can not accept your offer although I am grateful for your generosity."


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Pip responds with a glare that betrays just how fast her volitile moods can shift. She whispers and hisses something to herself in Auran as she starts to re-divide the gold between two bags. After a few minutes and a small fit when one of her counting piles falls over and topples two other carefully formed stacks, Pip tosses an enlarged sack to Anna. That comes to 602 gold and 14 copper each Anna.. She then stalks back into the store while muttering something that sounds dangerously close to "stupid elf".


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

The "stupid elf" watches Pip's reaction with surprise.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to inconvenience you."

He patiently waits for Pip and Anna to complete their business.


Winter Witch 3

she finds nothing she's looking for.


female

Kale seems a bit supsrised you are not interested and says "What is it you came wanting anyway?"


Winter Witch 3

"I was hoping for a scroll or wand of sleep."


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Pip fails to hear his responce as the storm of her frustration at their new companion runs its course with only a few additional grumbles. Soon she is acting as if nothing had happened. She thanks in the store and heads out into the street.


female

Kale says "I could make a scroll of it but it will take a day to scribe it but after the orcs being nearby is over. Southwatch needs my spells for defense."


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

Maoldrurra says mildly, "Ma'am, I might say that spell would not be lost to Southwatches' defense. Anna is of good heart. She and Pip rescued me from bandits just yesterday. I'm sure she'll be defending Southwatch. With your reputation, sleep must be among the least of your magics, but even you could not be two places at once. If you sell her a scroll then she will be able to use it some place it is needed while you are elsewhere."

Best ingratiating smile. Maoldrurra knows he is far from charming and hopes the chain of thought will appeal to the wizard.


female

Kale says "Actaully sleep is in the middle of the magical abilities I have mastered."


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

diplomacy: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11
Pip lightly flits by the door doing a graceful, floating dance. She pauses at Maoldrurra's urgings and slowly floats indoors.
In a whispy tone, still spinning about the shop, she adds, Even if it was the strongest of your spells, making as many scrolls of your magics is a boon in battle for any user of magic. Selling us but one will extend your power into the fields of battle and preserve it should today pass with no conflict engaged.


female

sorry for not posting earlier.Kale says "Yes but I may need to cast that spell if orcs are coming over the wall and I can't cast it once I start making the scroll and have not finished it. Oh and if you are looking for work Olivia CAravan may want to see some adventurers in the morning."


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Feeling thwarted and summarily dismissed, Pip spins on a heel and floats out the door.
Well, that wasn't very friendly she mutters when she's sure she's out of earshot of the shop.


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

Well just finish the scroll and all would be well. Maoldrurra thinks, but says nothing. It's clear Kale needs the spell for her own piece of mind. He perks up at the mention of work.

"These two ladies are in currently in funds, but I find myself in urgent need of employment. Who is this Olivia Caravan, what sort of work would she offer, and where could I find her?"

****
Outside, he finds himself agreeing with Pip. "Dangerous times bring out the best and worst in people. I imagine she would be friendlier and more cooperative if an attack were not in the offing."

Presumably he can continue ....

"At least she gave us a lead on work. And we may find something else from your friend the mayor, or some other important person who needs capable help in this crisis."


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Pip shrugs. "Apparently this Orc thing is something of a crisis. Though I thought people who lived in Lastwall would be used to Orcs and the odd zombie by now. Maybe not. In any case, I vote we go see this Caravan lady and see what she can do for us.


Winter Witch 3

"Why, not. Lets see what she can do."


gm 3

How does the party try to find Olivia Caravan asking aroudn or seraching the streets looking for someone

Anna:
You remember she the captain of the gaurd and wearing full plate. And that she talked to you when finding the lost girl.


Winter Witch 3

"Wait a moment, I think I recall what she looks like and she's a captain of the guard."


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Time to find a Guard and ask where the Captain is then!
With the prospect of work on the horizon, Pip is suddenly in a good mood. She starts bouncing up and asking people at random if they've seen a guard recently and where she might find one.


As the day goes on the sun continues to sink lower to the horizon. As Pip asks questions first she asks a common women and who says "Gaurds are always at the gate but somtimes on the street." Then a man in studded leather armor comes around the corner who answers "You are looking at one. And why do you ask?"


The gaurd begins to get impaitent at waiting for an answer.


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Pip snaps back to reality.
Sorry. That was just a really shiny... Anyway, we're looking for Olivia Caravan. Do you know where we could find her?

Sorry about that. My bad.


The gaurds says "Olivia Caravan is currently in the church of Iomeade conducting a meeting that should be ending soon with some town gaurds."


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

"I'm new in town myself. Where is Iomedae's church?"

Will slavishly follow the guard's directions to said edifice.


the gaurd responds "It is near the gate when you first enter and to your right"


Winter Witch 3

she politely thanks the guard for the directions


Male Elf Fighter 3 current HP 14 of 18

Captain of the Guard? Good. Maybe we can find honorable work.

Maoldrurra quietly hums a tune as the group walks toward the church.


Halfling Imp. Fighter 1 | HP 23/23 |Armor:1 | XP:0 | Str:16(+2) Dex:11(+0) Con:13(+1) Int:9(0) Wis:8(-1) Cha: 15(+1)

Pip bows to the guard and proceeds to skip/dance toward the chapel, relishing the open air and the breeze in her hair.


female

At the chapel a many gaurds a few gaurds and townsfolk come out and then a woman in full plate with black hair says "You just missed the meeting. or were you looking for me?" She then looks at Anna as if she may have met once before.

Anna:
This is olivia Caravan
