Penelope the Water Elf's page

Yes, I do. I am sure he would be glad to make your acquaintance. His name is Ben, and he is a level nine full water wizard.

Penelope looks around.

"Is he here? I do not see him... Will he say anything here?" she asks.

Ben needs to make a character at some point - also; does the Combat Map work? If so, let me know if you can see it - we can start doing combat if it does...

She looks at you.

"Well, even if I do not see him, you are still a good friend. Your friends are building a tower that stretches high into the sky and built by the coast, yet you are a Fire Wizard... Where would you build your own home if you could pick any place?" she prompts.

"Penelope, it would be nice to have you help protect us. Would you consider that? Also, we have more than enough gold and riches to build a warship, and tinkers on our team," Ignis says in a hurry, as though impatient

Penelope nods her head.

"Since you asked, yes I would! If an enemy attacks you from the sea, I will do what I can to bring my allies to help you - since you asked."

"Tell me, Archmage Fotia, do you know any nice water wizards?" she asks with a curious voice.

"It would be nice to meet some, if you know any, that is..."

"Once you have your tower built I would strongly advise you to build farms, and some sort of defense for them. The next army may not even bother to attack your tower; instead, they may simply surround you and wait until all your food is eaten and you have nothing left."

"Building farms next, and a place to store the food - if you cannot do so in the tower - would be a good plan, too."[/b]

Penelope watches Master Thorn and leans in to Ignis.

"He is right to suggest farms, for they can produce plenty of food. Yet to my mind there is always the advantage of building your tower near to docks. Docks mean you can build fishing boats, that can be useful in getting food, and docks will make it easier to get business through trade."

"Plus, do you not already have friends who are water wizards? Surely they will be pleased to have docks near a tower," she says.

Penelope looks at Ashley and then Ayaan.

While waiting to hear what Ayaan might say, and to also learn more about the mysterious Lorenzo, Penelope leans in close to Ashley and speaks to her quietly so as not to interrupt -

"This cave will likely have many threats; be careful when you go inside..."

Hello my name is Lorenzo and I am an ally of Ayaan.

Penelope looks at Lorenzo with surprise. Glancing at Ashley and Ayaan, she realizes Lorenzo must also have unique skills to defeat these enemies.

"Oh! Another mysterious person has arrived? How many are you heroes? Hmm.. perhaps I shall never know. Yet I am glad you are here to fight these monsters! But before you do, do you wish to go to the cave first, or go get supplies first?" she asks the party.

You can go to the cave first, or you can go back and find Master Thorn and get some supplies before your cave mission; of course, this reminds me - does everyone have their "sheets" - which include Mana, Spells, Health and other stuff? The answer is - probably not, because Mister Joe hasn't provided all of that stuff for everyone to look over... (oh that crazy Mister Joe!)

Nevertheless, it shall be put up soon on the Google Classroom for everyone to read over and decide on. This will include (also) more rules. For now - if people would like to get gold and or other treasure, I do reward players who interact well with each other :)

In this case Ayaan knows Ashley, but she does not know Lorenzo - perhaps you guys could introduce yourself (as in; write what your characters would say to each other if meeting for their first time?). Again; Mister Joe does reward good writing/storytelling!

Finally, when we have the information out, we'll need to update our "Profiles". When you click on someone's name and hit "profile" it will show you information about them that you each write - this should include things like Health, Mana, and so on, so we know how everyone is doing. More on that to come soon, though!

Once that is done, we'll also have the option of including new pics we each find for our characters (see Penelope's profile and you'll find a link to a pic of what she would look like). Also - soon we'll have our first combat map up so you guys can get into some action!

Okay, more to come soon. Meantime, don't forget to share your powers, that could be handy later when you go into the cave :)

Yes he is my friend and thank you for the information Penelope.

"You are quite welcome, Lady Ashley. Of course, I will show you the way to the caves if you want to go there first. But if you would like to go instead to a town to buy supplies first, I will wait for you here until you return. Do not fear; with the ghosts of the haunted mansion destroyed, I should be quite safe until you come back. Unless you wish to go now?"

Would you like to go now, or go back to town and try to get supplies first? As soon as I know which decision you and Ayaan want, I'll move you forward :)

Penelope's eyes widen as she sees Ayaan approach her.

"Oh my!" she says in surprise.

"Is this man your friend?" she asks Ashley, not entirely sure of the stranger.

Ayaan - remember; Penelope never met you In-Game, so she is a little surprised at you, but she's willing to trust you if people she knows says you're a good person.

Meanwhile, as it seems Ayaan may be friends with Ashley, Penelope bows somewhat gracefully before Ayaan.

"If you are a friend of the Lady Ashley, I will trust you," she says.

She thinks a moment about Ayaan's information.

"From what you tell me, the creatures you fought were probably a mix of humans and goblins, or more likely orcs... Some people would call such monster a "Half-Orc"."

"Orcs do not like bright light at all, it makes them sick and dizzy in it. But Orcs are tough and very good at fighting... If orcs and humans could be mixed then a creature who could be very good at fighting would also be able to endure more light than regular orcs could - I fear this is what may have happened," she says nervously.

"There is indeed a cave near us. Orcs have come out of it at night to cut down trees and damage the forest just for amusement. I do not like orcs, but I am afraid to go in to their caves..."

"If I show you the caves, will you go inside? If you do, I warn you to be careful. Such caves may be very dangerous. Only true heroes will have a chance at surviving the mazes of the tunnels, the possible traps, and the dangers you find underground!"

She is willing to take you all, of course, but wants to be sure you feel it is safe to go there right away, or if you need to prepare, first...

After all, you could also return to the Tavern of Master Thorn and buy some potions and other gear before heading in. Or you could go now; what would you like to do next?

"Greetings, good Heroes," says a voice.

Looking up, you see it is the same Water Elf you had helped earlier. Now that the ghosts at the mansion have been destroyed, it seems she has come to find you.

"I am Penelope... I'm sure you remember, but many of you helped me against that satyr near the Doom Temple. You have defeated the ghosts in the mansion; may I ask you what you found inside?" she says.

Penelope turns to Ashley.

"I remember your gift to me earlier. If there is anything more I can do to help, please tell me and I will do what I can to aid you and your friends."
