            @Sara: I imagine Rossana asking when she comes back, but should she take over for the last item, or is Sara going to go for the last one as well?

            Rossana has her beat by +1, so you have a better chance. Sara can aid another.

| Bimble Ficklebopper | 
But Rossana already got caught acting suspiciously. She probably can't afford to fail again. I mean, unless she can take on another disguise?
If Rossana can take another disguise, it would be reasonable for both of you to try stealing objects, if we want to make it a clean 5/5. Though maybe we should just stop at 3.
@GM Dak -- For Rossana's roll, Capricia's Round 1 action was an Acrobatics check in the Arcade where she rolled a 26, for a threshold of 12. So that first bonus was unlocked. Rossana adds another 10 for a threshold of 22, which hopefully unlocks a second bonus, or at least makes progress toward it.
Bimble will wait to see if he needs to continue his distraction to help others steal, or if the plan will be to deal with Trant, in which case Bimble will probably distract himself with some other silly room.

            Rossana didn't get caught, the noble woman she was acting like got caught. But I agree we could both try. Hoping to be able to talk our way out. If one gets caught and thrown out (or worse) hopefully the other one will make it, though we'd have to deal without the aid another.
So will try...

            Rossana's ability works as a Hat of Disguise, basically. Quite a good ability that will only improve as we level.

            As I'm sure you all are aware, the holiday's are quickly approaching. The holiday season generally brings a bit of slowness with posting from people as they travel and take time to themselves or with family. I will be around, with the possible exception of Christmas day, so as long as people are posting I will do the same, but if you plan to be away then I hope you enjoy your holiday.
If you do plan to be away, please let me know so that if needed I can bot you accordingly.
Things have been moving at a good pace. So, after the new year I would like us to keep up the great work of a minimum once per day posting so we can keep things moving strong!

            Christmas Day itself will be busy, but even so, I should be able to keep up with the posting throughout the holidays.

            And I'm missing out on combat! Frustration!
Rossana shall continue in duking out politics instead. Fight hard, guys!

            I will mention in case she doesn't realize it that we are waiting on Capricia.
But I'm also in no hurry since it's the holidays.
Sorry about the vanishing act--wifi issues. I should be able to post at least once a day for the foreseeable future.

            So in total, the things of interest we have left are:
1 Job to Finish: Aide
1 Optional Job: More Theft
1 Area to Influence: Servant Area
3 Prominent NPC's: Maxillar Pythareus, Wyssilka the Fantabulous, and Lady Gloriana Morilla
Did I miss anything there?

            Did Bimble really finish influencing the Courtyard? It seems like I only got the first tier reward.
Capricia got a reward there. Remind me and I'll give you the wand she got and split up the other goodies.

            Will give Marcus through tonight before I bot to move us forward.
As a side note, I believe we've lost Celad since I've been botting him for some time with no word. With us having a bit of a larger party we can continue on without him, but wanted to get all of your thoughts on your preference to keep going as is or look for a replacement.

            We could bot until the end of the week. The holidays can get messy at times, and finding a replacement might be slow going this week as well. As for finding someone else or not if he doesn't show, I'm willing to go either route. Losing a frontliner is hard, but this AP sounds like it has a lot less 'standard' combat in any case. I don't have much experience in this, though, as RL games don't have as easy re-recruitment.

| Bimble Ficklebopper | 
I ordinarily think a party of 5 is just fine. Capricia is a good front-liner. And Marcus will be contributing ranged damage. So from a party composition perspective, I think we're fine. Another positive is that if Celad returns, he'll have a ready spot.
But I also think that this is an unusually good time to re-recruit, because not much has actually happened thus far. We've all just showed up at a big party where no decision has yet been made. It's almost the perfect time for our benefactor to introduce a new teammate.
Which is my way of saying I'm fine either way, and I defer to the judgment of our team / DM.

            So early too. Personally if we don't think he is coming back I'd go with getting another, but would give him as Rossana suggests til the end of the week at least.
Though I'm fine if we keep our current five as is.

| Bimble Ficklebopper | 
I feel like this closed senate recount vote has to go the other way, right? To screw over the princess?

            All updated! Not much for me this level, since the sniper archetype takes away the slayer talent I'd normally get and replaces it with an ability that isn't relevant until I get sneak attack next level...

Did we ever divide the random stuff we got here?
"two vials of liquid blade, eight smoke pellets, a single dose of soul stimulant, and two vials of dust of illusion"
If not, folks should claim these, or someone can hold onto a party potion collection.
By the way, is dust of illusion a consumable or is it reusable? Because it's stupidly expensive if it's a consumable (compare a potion of Disguise Self or a Hat of Disguise).

            Sara had taken 1 liquid blade and 1 smoke pellet.
Nice thing about the dust(I had to look it up again) is that it can be used against someone's will. Toss it over someone in jest, then will the illusion to make their face look like a mass of pimples. But at 1200 a pop, you must really really hate that person.

            Unless anyone wants otherwise, Sara will carry one the dusts. Only to be used under extreme duress, until we have the opportunity to sell it.
