"I bet it would be, I sort of have a good sense of humor.""I usually send summoned creatures. They're REALLY useful. Have you ever seen a clouder, that's a group of cats, pounce on some angry gnolls? It's hysterical. ""And to add to that...", Leafripper stays sitting, talking to himself, "I'll make sure the enemy's forces fall so fast you may not get hurt in the first place."
[dice=Stealth]1d20+3
Leafripper flinches, knowing at least some 4-6 other people heard him....
"Best part is you can't even hurt the summoned creatures. They go back to the planes completely unharmed. It's perfect! "
Orion takes the book and looks at it curiously. He starts to read after a minute. You get the impression that he hasn't done this in awhile. However after a moment he appears to be having no problem.

Hamish looks at the group blank faced and then scratches the back of his head. "Uh, yeah."
Talkative lot. Note to self: back off when the chattering begins and wtch the ceiling.
Sorry for the change, but Leafripper is The Flame, i just thought this would be appropriate.
"Did I overhear your name is 'Leafripper?' Why would you have such violent tendencies towards something as usually harmless as leaves? "

"Actually, i'm from the barbarian clan "Fathers of the Forest", and i don't have anything against leaves. My mentor named me that, when we were surrounded by assassin vines, but..."
He sadly looks down."A shambling mound took his life, in the same way the goblins..."
He cuts himself off. "No...the goblins were worse....", and he shudders.
Will everyone who doesn't have linguistics trained give me an untrained roll to see if you can reduce the DC on some of this information? You feel like your getting some of it, but with a bit more effort, might just get it all. (Anyone with it trained already has the DC reduction)

A stout, handsom man in dark armor sits at a table need the Druid "so you work with summons eh? I also tend to let others do the fighting for me, lead from the back, keep everyone alive that kind of thing, though I don't use many summons, I normally use a type of.... Cheep magical construct"
The man is an aasimar, that much is apparent even a a glance from the halo above his head. He has redish brown hair with green eyes and golden hued skin. He has a relaxed posture and a gentle smile.
** spoiler omitted **
heheh...
Not entirely sure he wants to be part of a conversation where a man was apparently devoured whole by a salad Hamish busies himself with the maps.

Addressing Orion directly,"Weellll, you knoooww Orion, paathfiiindrs are saapooost to cu-oper-Aate. Annnnddd uuusing the groooooops telaaaaapurt to,"doing her best Kreighton Shane imitation, she burst into giggles, then finishes,"to save a sparrow does not in fact equal cooperation."
She then comments,"The team was stuck out there for two extra weeks before they were found by another operative that could bring them home and a few people sustained some minor injuries that I could have prevented. Dishes and scribe duties are a poor substitute for letting them get hurt. No matter how noble it is to save one of the animal kind."
Responding to Suzumaru's story. "Well, we all make mistakes. Sarenrae only knows how many I've made. Best we can do is try not to repeat them. And at least there seems to have been no serious consequences to your actions. And now a small bird will be able to happily grow up thanks to you."
" 'Mad' Hamish? That seems like an...odd way to introduce yourself. Why are you 'mad,' pray tell?"
After this was done, he stopped trying to find eternal life for everyone else, and went mad from the corruption of the outsiders and his newfound power. He quite successfully learned ways of fusing not only planes together (such as the material plane with Hell, Abaddon, and the Abyss) but also how to interweave demiplanes in with them as well. You have a feeling that if Acererak had anything to do with the appearance of this island, several things you know for certainty about how magic is SUPPOSED to work... might be different on the island itself. You also find references that going ethereal or astral within this mixture of planes might draw unwanted attention from the outsiders whose worlds have been merged. You THINK that teleportation effects might trigger this as well but... can''t really be sure.

"Hey Look!" Nudging leaf ripper. "It's not a new island. It's just in the wrong place. See. This is the island I flew over (pointing to an island in the Eye of Apendego). It's easy to spot because it looks like a grinning face. Instead of being where its should be it's all the way over here (pointing to the islands current location). Also, nothing grows around the 'nose' on the face. That's probably where the corruption lies. "

"Fair enough. I guess the solution would have been to bring your party with you when you went to save the sparrow. But I'm glad everyone made it out mostly unscathed. "

Overhearing Orion's comment on islands moving, Jean removes himself from the group of young recruits he was previously engaged with and scampers over. The large man is surprisingly agile, and his face is blank except for a slight scowl as if in concentration.
From what you describe, I agree. Whatever foulness causes plants to die, faces in rock formations to form and islands to move suddenly is probably what we are being summoned here for, and that many magical effects on such a small island can't be coincidence.

"Well, yea. Plus Islands usually don't move. When they do it's never good. Unless it's a dragon turtle, but then it probably wouldn't be on a map in the first place. "
"Funny, for a bloke who doesn't want to be watched and went through all the trouble of developing counters to stone manipulation to protect himself that he'd pick the most obvious I am here sign in the world to live on."

One of the other recruits laughs at this comment. "Well, he could have chosen the shape of a giant hand with its middle finger extended. Whoever this is has to be incompetent. I'm sure a team of four of our greenest recruits could find this guy and stop him."

"Wizards do tend to get a big head about stuff. They often forget that there's always a bigger predator somewhere. It's best not to poke the bear, so to speak."
"I got distracted earlier. What were you saying about cheap magical constructs?"
"Stupid hideout or not. That place gives me the shiveries. The spirits tell me that we shouldn't make light of this threat."Turning to the goat and whispering,"Shut up. I've got this... No. You cannot have another pamphlet."
Adjusting her sickle on its hook in her belt, she stands up in the chair."None of us appear to be green pathfinders, well except me in color. The Decemerivate called us together because we are powerful in our areas of expertise. Why would they do that, if they don't expect this to be a difficult and dangerous mission?"
He smiles "yes, as I'm not quite strong enough to properly fight up close with someone, and I lack the explosive magics of the arcane, I use my divine magics to animate objects to strike down my opposition for me"
"Yea. I do something similar, but I do have a few explode-y tricks if I need them. "

"Plan B for when the greenies get themselves killed?"
"I'm not sure...",sas Leafripper as he starts etching something in his warhammer. "Maybe we won't need a Plan B....but I find that no such thing."
"How about we hire someone?" Leafripper says. But as he says those words, he starts laughing at himself. "Forget I said that....NO ONE would want to come on an adventure like this...ha-hah!" He stops laughing abruptly and says,"No, I'm serious...could we hire someone?"

Orion agrees. "No. Probably not a dragon turtle. "
Or you know, the DM is full of crap.
