It sounds as though this 'rag end' place could easily be close to the sewer entrance we've been using. Yamyra certainly wouldn't object to a side trip .

Yeah it should not take more than half a day to enter the Crow via the sewer entrance and backtrack to the storage area where you found the clockwork servant.
As suspected, Gared's key does indeed fit the clockwork servant. Once he winds it up, the creature springs to life after a few shuddering fits and starts, then stands motionless until the person who wound it up moves. At this point, the servant follows that person, never straying farther than 10 feet away and acting as a bodyguard.
Here are its STATS.
Post will be incoming this evening.
I received one of those great impersonal e-mails from the call center I applied to. I didn't get the job.
Not at the moment. Places won't even hire me as a cashier or a cart pusher :/
Ugh, I'm sorry to hear that, Horven!
=(
So sorry, dude.
So I don't know if he needs to be rendered unconscious again, but at the very least I'm thinking Jasper's only lucid when he's in pain.

Carridan: Sorry about the misunderstanding here. I was not completely clear with Jasper's responses. I should have clarified his gaze was still unfocused after you revived him. In other words the fact he is in pain had nothing to do with his lucidity. I just wanted to emphasize his mental instability here.
I apologize for the confusion.
If you wish to reconsider your actions here, I will allow you to do so.
Well, Jasper did go full crazy again after the second bout of healing. And I'm alright with Carridan misunderstanding things in this respect if he turns out to be wrong. The simple druid is awfully terrible with people, after all.
I think so, yeah. I'll certainly stop if anyone asks me to, but I think it's the conclusion Carridan would draw given the sequence of events.
That is the plan, I think.
Oui oui!
Though, I have to admit, it supposedly being so much easier to get there by boat instead of by land has me highly suspicious! =P
Wow. On the one hand, I don't feel quite as bad about not posting for several days because of being swamped with changes at work...
On the other, I feel bad for not chiming in earlier to say that while I can certainly understand real life impeding our gameplay, I for one would prefer to keep playing at a slower pace than to close the Campaign. This is my longest running surviving game & I have been enjoying it & you guys immensely. You guys have also been here for me through some fairly harrowing times & if we do wind up closing things down, I will miss you all.
Perhaps a temporary hiatus so DM Eric can recharge? I seem to recall we had one a while back, or I may be thinking of a different Campaign.
Maybe we could all check in again in a couple weeks time with a brief re-cap to reacquaint ourselves? It might actually also assist me in finishing up the Campaign Journal...
Sounds like a solid idea. I may have a job at Wal-Mart soon, but things are quite busy lately on my end.

Okay, guys.
I do appreciate you guys wanting to stick with this game. I have enjoyed running this game a lot and think you guys have a...unique chemistry, he he. Still, to be honest, I do have trouble staying motivated for a game where the players do not actively take an interest in the game as much as I do.
Since I see everyone is having RL issues to deal with now, I will put this game on a hiatus until Sunday March 29th, about 2 1/2 weeks. I hope this gives all of you (and myself) a chance to refresh and recharge our collective batteries.
I will check back here at that time.
Take care and I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
DM Eric.
Well, I've got orientation at Wal-Mart tomorrow, so things are looking up on my end. Hopefully, it translates into a permanent position after the remodel is done.
I'll keep my fingers crossed.
Hey guys! Sorry for the delay in posting, but I've just had one of the busiest weeks of my life. It also has turned out to be one of the best weeks of my life, as I was accepted into my medical school for the coming fall class! I'm going to be a doctor!
As far as the game goes, I adore it and I'd really rather not see it go. I hope we can all pick back up, refreshed and replenished after the break!
Everyone still alive? :D And my belated congratulations for getting into medical school, I've got the idea that it's not an especially easy thing to do. :P
Here and hopeful/excited to get back into the thick of it! And thank you! I can't wait to start attending, though there's certainly a lot to figure out between now and then!
Still here, coming down with a cold though.

Okay...After giving this some thought as to whether to resume this game due to some RL issues, I have decided to resume this game once again. I know how much you guys have enjoyed this game and my DMing style so I am willing to keep going with this!
Judging by the posts here, It looks like Horven, Gared and Carmina have all checked in. I just need Yamyra and Carridan to chime in and we can get this ball rolling!
Still here!
Yay! On all accounts!
It bears mentioning though that my day-time posts might a little more sluggish over the next two weeks. My boss will be out of the office (it's only the two of us) on medical leave, so I'll be carrying both our workloads and fielding all the phones while he's out.
Here!!
The gang's all here!
Sorry I have missed out posting the last few days. I came down with a flu bug Thursday night & have alternated bed-ridden with being violently ill in the bathroom since then. Feeling better now.
This should be interesting...

OK a quick note here:
While I do enjoy the RP aspects going on here, I do not want this to lead to any bad blood between you guys. If you are feeling as if things are getting out of hand, let me know via PM or here in discussion.
As for Dialla, right now it looks like only Carridan wishes to apprehend her. Let me know if anyone wishes to help him here.
It's strictly RP on my end.

No bad blood here either! =)
Assuming the soon-to-be fetched captain accepts the, Dialla was a murderess but she got away, (which doesn't make much sense to me, as the question of who was murdered is bound to come up if there isn't a body left) Gared would move to talk with Carridan and then Horven separately before deciding whether or not to act to turn in Dialla before the group reached their destination. The Erastilian must address the dissent within the community!
I understand this, but Dialla had already explained her plan to disguise herself as Chebby when Carridan had left to go inform the captain, correct? So unless Carridan doesn't recall or share the details, her plan wouldn't work?
I'm pretty sure the captain knows what's going on anyway.
/shrug
we'll see how the captain reacts, but yes, Carridan's intention is to explain that Chebby's been murdered and the missing person is now disguised as him.
If she cares to look into it, perhaps Chebby's brother can ask some questions faux-Chebby can't answer.
I'll be heading out of town this weekend. I'll try and keep up.

I'll be traveling as well, and won't have my computer with me, but I ought to be able to make a post or two with my phone.
Back home.
I think so, yeah. I'm good to move on at least.
Me too.

I'd like to do a little more of the conversation with Carridan, assuming he's so inclined, but we could do that in flex time and keep going.
Sure! =)
I'm well aware that I'm a complete idiot for not saying this earlier, but I'm moving today. :P So I perhaps won't post anything in a few days, depending on how bad the jetlag hits me.
Sorry guys, I was so immersed on planning everything that I almost forgot to tell you. :(
