Nat's damage totem doesn't take any spell points to use, but the re-roll saving throws talent does, and she's almost out.
There are 2 times to rest in D&D: too early, and too late.
EDIT: oops, I'd completely forgotten about the reagents in the room! Rolling herbalism check now.
So, I'm seeing Istiel say push on, Imix say push on but this is a good place to rest.

Truth.
Dicebot, man. That guy's a jerk.
Oios: the cleansing is a good idea. Happy to aid on rolls, not sure what roll it is.
Normally I'd be cautious, but for some reason I feel we're under time pressure here.
I'm pretty sure the ogres will find us if we camp, just like what happened to the Frozen. I think we'd have to completely leave if we wanted to rest.
Resources are meant to be consumed, onward I say!
CMW potions added to Haversack, unless someone wants one.
As a refresher, we have in haversack:
Alchemist's Fire (4)
Explosive Pitch (15)
Potion of Remove Curse (1)
Potion of Remove Disease (1)
Potion of Remove Blindness/Deafness (1)
Potion of Tongues (1)
Potion of Lesser Restoration (1)
Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds (6)
Istiel currently has our Potion of Fly.
@Istiel: you rock!

Wife is I labor, will check in in a couple of days.
Take your time BP, and I hope everything goes well!
Best wishes BP!
Best of wishes from all of us BP.
OK, we're through the other side. Baby and mom are good. Getting adjusted and getting caught up on my games. I'll get us going again here soon, in the next day or two.
HEY!!!!
Congratulations!
Congratulations! :-)
Congratulations BP and BP-wife!!!
Congratulations to you family GM! Don't worry about a bit of a slower pace either. Babies are a heck of a thing.
Babies are a heck of a thing.
Remember, a baby is not just for Christma- wait, wrong joke.
Aaaaanyway, I have finally got round to making Evil Rigel (for submission to a WotW game and not just for my own twisted amusement) - thought I'd share the link with you :-)
Very nice! I'm playing a barrister in a Hell's Rebels game. Good times.
I've been eyeing that game. What class is Rigel going to be? I've got a couple of ideas and don't want to be in competition with Rigel.
EDIT: Ahh, nevermind, just read the updated thread posts. Cleric is a good choice. Doesn't seem to be too many divine submissions yet.
Ooh, are you going to bring back Elnora the Diabolic Explorer? Cuz that'd be awesome!

Grats! You two deserve all the happiness your new baby brings you. Oh and welcome back.
WHat kind of light sources do we have? Istiel only has 8 torches left, or 8 hours of light.
Nat can create light equivalent to a torch as an at-will power.
Oh.
Well that was easy.
Had to truncate my last post - Have to run out for some errands. More to come in a couple of hours.

Oooooh this is really cool loot. We'll have to think of some devious things to do with it. I wonder why a dwarf would need Nightdrops though...? Maybe it's not a dwarf in this tower after all?
Question- is the bottle of messages unused, or does it have a message inside?
Edit: Oh sweet mercy it knows we're here. IS IT A GHOST? A WIZARD? A GHOST WIZARD? Now it has time to prepare.... my worst fear. Nothing is more deadly than a prepared wizard.
That was really spooky BP, excellent Halloweenmanship.
Baby needed to eat, so she bought me some time. Good baby!
Re: Nightdrops. Uh........
They are kept in a fine glass bottle coated in dust, as if they had been sitting in the back of the cubby for years and years and years. (It is totally not because sleep-deprived Poultry wasn't thinking straight).
The bottle of messages is unused.
Ooh, are you going to bring back Elnora the Diabolic Explorer? Cuz that'd be awesome!
Yep! Hope we get to play together!

Buff up and update your statlines, friends. This is going to be a rough fight (if it comes to that).
Edit: BTW BP, Istiel's potion of Mage armor gives her AC vs incorpeal touch attacks, which wraiths use. I have updated her statline to reflect this.
Since Oios knows about wraiths, EVERYONE knows about wraiths. Including the fun of incorporealness and undead traits too I'm assuming.
Have an eduactional link!
For extra !!FUN!! this one probably has class levels.
Yd is happy to provide an infodump. To keep things from getting bogged down, feel free to post some questions here and I'll put the answers together in a post. Yd will answer what Yd can.
Oios on the other hand was a bit AWOL when we came into the tower. It's because it's in the path of the flight, right?
Yup. We were checking to make sure the path was clear- Rock said there were creatures in the water that killed his tribe, so we decided to check it out for ourselves first.
We found the tower, determined it was a threat, tried to eliminate the Nargun, almost got killed (Rock DID get killed), and fled into the tower to figure out what was corrupting the Nargun, then we found the Frozen and undead.
Important point: the nargun attacked us. We didn't attack them.
Don't Nargun hate us anyway though? I admittedly didn't follow the whole Nargun thing very well. Perhaps our resident Nargun expert, Imix, can weigh in.
Did they attack us when we 'trespassed' or when we were pretty far away from the tower?
Well, as the Nargun were starting to unpack themselves when we arrived on the island, Drazen attacked them.
I'm pretty sure they were going to attack us anyway.
It was a while ago (IRL I mean) but if memory serves we actually ran into the tower to get away from the nargun - they were pasting us into jam.
Oops. Just realised that with Naira's departure (and Rigel before that), the closest thing to a face-type character the party has is Nat; and she doesn't really believe in talking.
I'll get something up momentarily.
EDIT: so much for being the face. Doesn't matter how high your modifier is if you roll a natural 1. Sorry, all :-(
Oios' imtimidate has carried us pretty well, he does a good angry Face.
I make a point of never rolling an intimidate or diplomacy roll with Istiel, because she doesn't really negotiate.
So no reason to make Nat do diplomacy if she doesn't want to, we always find a way.
Yeah, we rocked up, asked for peace, they attacked.
We ran into here.
Part of that was they were saying... something... that might have been "we are being controlled", and murderising them seemed bad. A larger part was ******** those things are scary.
I have a fair few points in Diplomacy (although it doesn't count for much if I'm going to be rolling 1s!) and I'm happy for Nat to act as face. Just don't expect long screeds of oratory on a regular basis.
EDIT: Oh, and GMBP: the rules on Sense Motive, hunches and so on can be found here.
Well, according to rock they attacked his people first. So in all fairness, they attacked one of our allies first. So an eye for an eye.
Sorry all, I've managed to pick up the flu. I'm trying to keep going, but wording not so good now.
Commiserations, that sucks! Get well soon.
OK, everyone: if it does come to a fight with the wraith, does anyone have weapons that can actually HURT it? Istiel, please tell me your fists count as magic...
At 4th level Automatic Bonus Progression we should all have a +1 weapon/ One of the nice things about ABP is that it "dictates" a generically useful standard load out.
But a class leveled wraith at level 4? Brrrrr...
I love Imix's lisp in crocodile form, lol. You do it so well. Feel better soon Imix.
Nat: Yes, Istiel's fists count as magic weapons as long as she has 1 ki point, Drazen's axe is also magical, and what Imix said. The wraith doesn't know this, but Istiel also has a Potion of Fly. If it does come to a fight I'm planning on surprising it by turning Istiel into a Dragon Ball Z character.
Oios can declare a smite on the Wraith. I think that should work.

You all need the chance to use your cool toys!
But a class leveled wraith at level 4? Brrrrr...
Well, to be fair, you all are some pretty optimized level 4 characters.
But, yes, this will be a tough fight, if it comes to it. I'm glad you decided to rest.
Oh oh oh! You also have Bolt on your side!
Hope you feel better soon, Imix.
Thank you all :)
I also am glad we decided to rest.
I wasn't saying this fight wasn't possible, but this guy is not just some mook.
