Rescuers were getting 1000 gold a head from Mickey, iirc? Should we assume that's been paid out?
Correct.
Still recovering from the Holiday weekend, will get us moving forward tomorrow night.
- Kana, EE, and Dev
Dev remembers where Pierce has been holding court having opened his own Inquisitive office after bouncing around with a few different groups.
The Warforged greets you all, he stand 5'6" tall and is plated with Darkwood instead of steel or adamantine. His eyes are bright and sharp.
"Welcome Dev, who are your new friends? I have not seen you around much lately, did you take a trip out of the city?
Usually I am more knowledgeable about my own contacts but I have been working for a new client lately and the hours have been long, even for a Warforged".
Dev smiles, and then launches into it.
"Oh heck yeah, did we ever. These here is just the most recent bunch who's saved my life, and vice versa. Found em a bit ago down a hole, if ya believe it, and we've been palling around ever since. Ya find a couple good fixers who won't stab you in the back or rob ya blind, plus they know a few jokes, ya keep'em around. And I'll vouch fer these ones, all right. Yes, I do. A good bunch, that they are. But hey, wouldn't you know it, whilst we were out and about, that ol' Lord o' Blades fella is muckin' about still. Can't say he's gotten any friendlier. Hope was, you maybe happened into something new about'im?.
- Kana, EE, and Dev
"A few of his agents approached me, encouraging me to abandon my life here and head to the Mournland.
I advised them that such an idea did not intrigue me. They were less than friendly in letting me know that they did not take kindly to my rebuke.
It seems that this Lord of Blades is seeking to have the 'Forged draw battle lines. I do not like the sound of it. Nor do I appreciate the assumption that simply because I am 'Forged I should follow his leadership".
<Yes, they sounded quite... resentful.> EE still hears his old friend's words lingering into his auditive modules.
<What do we know of this Lord of Blades? Is it something that should worry us in the short term?>
- Kana, EE, and Dev
Pierce reiterates the rumors he has already shared with Dev, "Other than that I have heard nothing more. His followers do not answer questions, only ask.
The Mournland is far enough away from Sharn that I do not concern myself with it. I will certainly share anything I hear with you all now that I know Dev is back.
Have you any current commitments to Mickey P?"
"Sorta kinda. Heading somewhere tomorrow fer some new job that's a little short on details. Never hurts to diversify, though. Got somethin' in mind?
EE thinks aloud, as if briefing his thoughts. <Well, one of my best friends has been absorbed by the cult, and he seemed totally changed. You know, like they do in those sects where they fry your neural connections and make you think like they do, inhibiting all self thoughts. That's why I'm a bit more involved than what I should be. So please, yes, if you hear some interesting info, let us know.>
- Kana, EE, and Dev
"I may. Need to develop what exactly that thing is.
I believe that one of the Dark Lanterns approached me for this job. I was not told that, specifically, but it is a suspicion I have".
Pierce nods to EE, "I will. Sorry to hear of this. We are not naturally inclined to the divine so I find it odd that a messiah figure among our kind would rise. Besides myself, I know of no other Cleric Warforged".
No problem!
=)
Is there any rule, formal or of polite company, that one shouldn't take two jobs at once? Don't want to offend Pierce.
Ok this last two weeks has sucked. My furnace went belly up and my classroom wifi had been on the fritz but the IT finally showed up and fixed it yesterday so I can finally toon in between classes and on breaks. Bleh

"A Dark Lantern? Whoa--that's big time stuff. I'd be game for it, though. Can't turn down a chance like that. Less of course they want something, uh. Icky. I've standards, ya know? But maybe don't lead with that if they ask." Dev chuckles, and winks at Pierce.
"But yeah, you figure out what you need, and I'll be available. Me and these folks here, and more'n a few of the others workin' that Mickey P job tomorrow'd probbly be interested. Maybe we should stop back in a bit? Or you wanna reach out when you know what you need?"
"I will reach out when I know more, I don't want you to have to worry about traipsing all over the city only to waste your time with a mere social call".
"Thanks, pal. You know where to find me!"

Dev would want to check in on Xetovia before we head out, but I'm okay with not playing that out, if you want to speed things up, Shadow. Lemme know either way!

Xetovia? :3

Previous companion. She was a Silver Flame vampire hunter. As I recall, she was captured with Gauntlet et al but wasn't around for the rescue. I think maybe she was ransomed?
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Yes that's correct to my knowledge, although I don't know if she was ransomed or not. I think she was one of the ones we don't know what happened to them.

Correct, she was ransomed, Lady E is looking into that back in Droaam.

Then I will do her the courtesy of avoiding the subject entirely.
Sorry for the slow responses, all - I am still here! Just assume that Viorr is playing up the 'laconic fighter' bit, hanging around the back, and agreeing with everyhting the smart people are saying...
Yay, we still have our elf fighter with the smexy thing from the mournlands xD

No worries, my posting rate has not been great lately.
Pushing forward now.
Any thoughts on having B get a climb speed again?
I'm not sure it'll be useful, but it'd make it much easier for her to hide behind things if she didn't have to hover xD
Maybe I'll just give her +1 attack/damage
Or unsummon her and pull out something more expendable xD
GM? Did we ever get the official list of treasure items from our last 'mission'?
I would like to know if that book I found allows me to construct stone wolves, and with the accompanied materials I absconded with in my magical back-pack would help me do so. We also found that heavy magic double-bladed longsword that nobody seems to want to use.
Right?

Correct, I have just not had a chance to get to it. I may not until I take vacation the week of Thanksgiving...
Pity we haven't got a 2 weapon fighter in the party!
That's a joke right? Or did Viorr not want it and I'm misremembering? XD
Also, I have a mostly complete list as well. I think I posted it.
I posted it here
There are also some things I didn't write down 'cause we started getting too many things for Frank to squirrel away immediately xD
But after double checking, it seems the list I posted in discussion has all non-quest items we found except for this loot, the golem parts, and the adamantium plates.
I can do the math, assuming that all the lewt is standard pricing and the masterwork items are nonmagical. I would only need to ask about a couple of (piles of) things: the golem materials and adamantine trap-doors.
A less satisfying possibility:
we could just say that the equipment we currently have (plus any off-screen shopping that should occur before we roll initiative) plus the sales from the loot brings us to exactly wealth by level xD
Viorr did NOT want it. I checked. He uses a double-scimitar. Not a double-longsword. Two different skill sets as I understand, or something like that.
that's so sad D:
Well, it'd probably only matter for weapon focus feats and things like that.
Pink eye says battle axe good
Um... I hope you have darkvision? xD
Yep I do
lol, should be fine xD
Just don't die xD
I plan on pushing us forward tomorrow to Bot those who have not acted yet.
If anyone wants to step in and Bot those PCs feel free to do so.

Other way around, actually...
Interestingly, I only saw a double longsword in the weapons list.
Whose to say that the stats/prereqs for the double-scimitar aren't the same as for a double-longsword? Or that we can't turn one into the other with a few hammer strokes and a lot of magic? :3
I will bot by tomorrow if no one else posts as I believe we have a few people who have not posted yet...
Damn folks. I love Eberron but lately time has been a real issue for me.
I want to run this but I don't want to keep freezing you all out like this. I have a proposal, what if I JUST update on the weekends where I know I will have a few extra a minutes every Saturday and Sunday (and likely every other Friday I do not have my daughter)and during the weekdays if you all post, you post, if not, not. I don't see any other way to keep this things going, let me know your thoughts.
Shadow;
my time has been really fragmented lately as well. Whatever time you can give to this is good with me. No pressure.
Happy Thanksgiving to the Americans among us...
