I just remembered that Winsome has fire resistance 5, so he can laugh a little bit as well.
Aiko hasn't rolled her bow attack, so I am going to do it here:
Rough fight for her. Bummer.
Didn't realize I had run through all of my rolls. Figured I would just sit this one out.
Winsome runs off to check with Shalelu and see if Ameiko is cured by the demonspawn's death. She is not.
This hoard consists of a +1 light fortification light steel
shield bearing the image of Castle Brinewall, a +1 returning
starknife, a pearl of power (1st level), a ring of the ram with 10
charges remaining, a wayfinder (Inner Sea World Guide 299),
1,320 gp, and 800 gp in jewelry and gems.
Byron, do you use a shield? Zaraleva would love it, of course, but you are the slayer. Pearl to Lyraesel, as Winsome already made one for Zaraleva? Starknife to A or A?
Zaraleva is tempted to start "decorating" Lyraesel with the jewelry, just to see her irritated reaction. :p
Lol, that won't go well.
I'd definitely take the pearl. Getting a spell back a day is pretty valuable.
I use two handed weapons. The returning Starknife might be good for Adrian if he can use it to have a magical weapon that can also be a ranged weapon. If no one wants it though, it would give me a magical ranged attack until I can get a better bow. I used up more magical arrows then I hoped to in the last fight.
Makes sense to me. So Ring of the Ram to Aiko or Byron?
(I can't believe we have a +1 longsword, our first magic weapon, and no one wants it.)
I'm home from a tiring trip and will open the map back up tonight.
I am not interested in the ring. I can carry the sword until we can sell it if no one else wants to use it. Having a magical weapon is nice.
Someone should at least carry the sword in case we need to use a magical weapon before we get to a place where we can buy ones that are more in keeping with our personal styles.
I think now all we have left to do is to figure out what connection Ameiko has to Brinewall Castle and see if we can wake up Sleeping Beauty.
So Byron, please add the sword to your character and Aiko the ring. (And Adrian the starknife if you're proficient.)
I can also prepare magic weapon for Lyraesel's or Byron's blades.
(Looks at Adrian) Um...bull's strength?
Ok, I noted down the ring.
I have put the sword on my sheet.
He's not proficient with starknives
No matter how bad you are with it, it will always return.
Aiko? Are you proficient?
No.
If there are no objections, let's change the word "starknife" to dagger or kukri for Adrian.
Is Zaraleva taking the shield? Just want to know to cross it off if someone's carrying it.
As a player I am a bit lost. It seems like we have cleared all the maps, or at least all of the maps are fully shown, so I am not sure where we need to go from here.

I think I posted it earlier, but I don't see it on a quick scan and I have to run out the door.
To do list:
1. Cast make whole on the statue of Desna. (Z prepared it today.)
2. Check the solarium.
3. Go downstairs. (W1)
I know too much, so somebody else pick in character, please.

Well, the disk that we got from defeating the creature seems noteworthy. (I mean, it was literally noteworthy, in that the DM noted it after we defeated the monster and searched the area.) Maybe it has a use? It has magic.
Which begs the question, with Winsome gone do we have anyone capable of identifying it/figuring out what it does?
Someone with the caravan might be able to do it.
Oo, good call.
Chuck8 may have other plans, but I thought we agreed Winsome would stay with the caravan as a limited resource. Are we doing the same with Kelda?
Yes, Zaraleva is wearing the shiny new shield.

Scary! Slide 5.
Kikonu the Tengu
In addition, the oni carries a small leather pouch at his side containing several vials of ink, five shiny pearls worth 100 gp each, and a
darkwood-and-silver disc decorated with an intricate etching of Brinewall under the noonday sun. This disc radiates faint transmutation magic.

That is a cool image.

Yes, Zaraleva is wearing the shiny new shield.
That makes sense keeping him as an NPC for identification of items and stuff like that.
Yeah, I'll keep Winsome on as a limited resource. Kelda could stay on as a Caravan Guard.
He can take the dagger just fine.

Pretty nice, though he still has his hair.
At this point I'm out of ideas. My only suggestion is that we go to the nearest town, hire some craftspeople who are willing to work here, and we spend a bunch of the treasure that we got on fixing up Brinewall and turn it into a functional village again. Then we stick Ameiko in a glass coffin and live out the rest of our lives here.
(I think we are stuck in the adventure.)
I think we are missing a whole floor to search once we go down the stairs. That seems to be the obvious place to go. I just want to clear what is up above before going down. I think it is a little early to assume we have failed. I do think avoiding a 4th fight in a row with a flying creature sounds good to me.
Pulling back the curtain here.
The crying child is an attic whisperer, a creature that in all probability be little more than an inconvenience for a party of your level. We can run the encounter through OR we can say you dispatch it and head to W1 so we can get out of this castle. Your choice.
I am for running the encounter, but there does seem to be a sentiment to move on.
I am for playing it, because there's some opportunity to learn about what happened in the fall of Brinewall and roleplay a bit.
I'm all for you saying that Aiko picks the lock (or did we find keys?) and you rolling initiative to get the party started a little faster.
It's less of a matter of the door being locked and more of it being stuck and needing to be forced open, but we'll say that one of you takes 20 to bust it open.
But let's get this encounter going then!
Hey Byron, the GM said "two Will saves." (Good luck!)
Okay works for me. My posting may be a little erratic this week, and I'm off work but rather than a vacation it's more of a staycation dealing with a bunch of extensive house repair stuff. I will post when I can.
Just waiting on Aiko and Lyraesel
Oh, I thought the creature went before us.
Sorry. Can't see the map at the moment, do I have room to engage in melee?
So it appears like there should be one space for you to move in and attack if you want. There are three spots to attack in melee and Aiko and Zaraleva attacked with ranged attacks.
Lyraesel, can we do anything to help you? I know home repairs are grueling.
Sorry I'll post in a few to move in and attack, should be back to my regular posting by Tuesday.
Chuck8, I believe everyone has taken a turn. Hopefully Byron is ok. (?)
I will be going on vacation from Sunday, July 28th, through Friday, August 2nd. I should have the internet, but I am not sure how much time I will have to post. So feel free to bot me if needed.
Chuck?
I can bot him for a round if that helps.
That works, thank you. Update will come tomorrow.
Oh crap, I meant bot Chuck, not Byron. Did you know that? Sorry if I wasn't clear. I can totally see that being a miscommunication.
It's fine, no problemo.
