Awesome. I'm glad that you rolled. If I had done it, I probably would have ended up with 4 patches, ha ha.
Sure!
If no one claims that other sword, I could wield them both! Holy Crap, would that be scary!
The Periapt of Proof against Poison is the only one that Khalid can really use, so he will happily take that. Wizards need all the defensive help they can get. ;-)

Are we sure about that? In prior versions of D&D this was a no no. :-)
Like bag of holding in a bag of holding that opens a vortex-type thing? In 5e, there is no mention of such magical anomolies, but I leave it entirely to your discretion. If you allow it, we will need to address the stacking of benefits for clarification purposes. I am ok if you do not allow it as well.
Sorry, I didn't really have anything to add. That said, if we want to avoid Marco having weapons with quickness, I can use the shortsword.
Derrick's just standing by at the sound of footsteps, ready to engage whatever threat next presents itself.
Yep I am going to rule that two quickness weapons cannot be used by the same person the same way two Haste spells would not be effective for the same person. That's a pretty traditional D&D stance I think.
Still two people with one is a pretty big advantage!

It's kinda like why you don't mix heroin with PCP. While you technically -can- do that, it's generally accepted that you wouldn't -want- to. ;-)
Thanks for running my plans this Friday night! Now I gotta figure out which to take and which to wait to take Saturday...
Heya folks, if anyone is looking to play in a 5E CotCT game, I'm running a recruitment here.
Crap damage on Wyatt's Thunderwave spell :-(
Even my DMPC's suck!
Wow, those last 3 posts took an hour! Marco and Khalid need to kill a few more to speed things up :-)
OK. The final foe in the final fight of this module!
Bardan is unconscious.
Sir Edmund stands 15' into the hall currently and wields the blade that has been bringing misery to the city for what appears to be decades if not centuries...
Hit and run time!
Updates tomorrow, without the dots its hard to see what the heck is going on!
Go ahead and level folks and we'll move on.
I leveled up earlier today and when I saved it, Paizo crapped out and I lost all of the changes. It wasn't much, but enough that I don't want to do it again today, ha. I'll get it tomorrow.
I hear ya Khalid, I wrote a backstory for a PC that the boards lost and still have too irritated to re-write and that was a few months ago!
Does anyone know of a good SRD for 5E magic items? Every one I find is missing half of them!
Marco, the Bracers don't stack with armor...but I have no idea what an amulet of natural armor does! X)
Same as in Pathfinder/3.5. That does stack with armor, it essentially magically hardens the skin it is placed upon.
Hit Points!
I will take the Amulet if Natural Armor, then, if nobody wants it. If someone does, then let's roll for it.
HP = 5+Con (6)
Need the book to update, will try to get to that by tomorrow.
One more player will be joining the group, should we Recruit another or are you all fine with 5?
5 sounds good to me.
Yeah, I'm fine with 5 too.
Marking the thread. Bwa ha ha. Ranged killer at your service!
Is this Spleenripper fellow our new number 5?

Correct.
FYI, the new story arc will be in a new thread entirely. I'll link to that when the time comes.

Huh. Clerics don't get much with a short rest, but I do get back the Divinity usage. That's good.
Can I have the ring of fire resistance?
Since we all wear armor, how about we sell the bracers later?
How about I keep track of party treasure that we sell later? (If someone else wants to do this, just say so.)
Wouldn't Derrick benefit from the bracers? Actually I might too. I've got to read them.
Derrick is a monk who takes his vow of silence very seriously! :-)
My apologies, been a little crazy with my life of late. I could benefit from the bracers, true, but my AC is already pretty solid, so I figured I'd let someone else take a shot at them if they wanted.
Khalid could definitely use them as well since they are one of the few things that seem to stack with Mage Armor, but Derrick is in the thick of things much more often.
Khalid cited the relevant portion of the plot that Wyatt revealed.
Let me know if anyone is confused and I will recap as this adventure has had a lot of twists and turns.
Also, settle on who will take what and write it on your character sheets!
I could certainly use a recap. I have taken the amulet and put it on my profile, already.

Recap:
Marco, Khalid, Derrick, Wyatt, and a few former PCs converge in Blackchapel on the site of a grisly murder. The murderer gets away and the individuals decide to band together to investigate the murder of the poor girl.
The group discovers that the murderer appears to be some sort of supernatural creature. When a murder takes place once more the next night, the group investigates the history of these murders and finds out that a similar pattern played out 13 years ago and 13 years before that for as long as the papers have records!
Along the way a handful of strangers from other places interact with the group and then seemingly disappear (Zook, Gaven, Korgan).
An arrest is made of a local posing as a wolfwere and the group decides on a hunch to trust him over the oddly behaving constables, the creature reveals that the Inspector is not what he seems.
Eventually the investigators become the targets as the killers realize that the group may succeed where the constables have failed for so long. During one such ambush the group fights constables, or at least figures that look like constables and one of their own turns on them. Thus it is revealed that the constables are not bunglers but accessories of some sort to these crimes.
The group decides it is time to seek aid from the Divinity of Mankind and the Divinity answers the call sending an agent Bannock with the group to assist. The group once again discovers Wyatt alive and well and he has a tale for them. The murderer is indeed a shapeshifter that has stolen a terrible weapon that confers dark powers upon the wielder.
But the entity that brought back Wyatt seeks this item back and he is no Samaritan but a villain of some sort himself! To ensure that Wyatt obeys he leaves a death beetle attached to the Bard's heart.
After the fourth murder the group fails to stop, they finally piece together enough evidence to find out that the true killer may be one Sir Edmund Bloodsworth. Following that lead the group sneaks into his home where they are subject to a series of ambushes by Sir Edmund. The group survives these attacks and their one remaining ally in the constublary Crier is slain.
Wyatt suggests that after a short rest, the group should confront the villain that set him on this path towards Sir Edmund to slay him. Wyatt has placed the offending knife in his belt. Currently, the group has taken a short rest and rummaged through the rest of Edmund's hidden sanctum.
Now the question is where to next? Follow Wyatt's suggestion and confront who he believes to be the main villain or something else?
Let me know if you have any questions. That is as short as I could make 1,300 posts and almost two years of gameplay!
Awesome!Thanks!
Thanks for the recap DP!

Alright gents, I will assume you will all run but wanted to give the choice and not force the choice.
Sodo is the Dark Lord of Paridon so he is without question the most powerful threat you have all faced. His armor is Dark Lord plot armor, the best kind of armor! You will have to learn more about him if you wish to return to defeat him.
Once you step into the Mists a new set of horrors awaits you all... don't worry though, one day we will come back to Paridon! As I stated a while ago you all seem willing to play an extended Ravenloft campaign and I have wanted to run a LOT of Ravenloft Modules for a LONG time. So provided you are all still interested it'll be a good decade before we are done with everything I have in mind.
