Thera the Thrush's page

Thera flies off Kito's shoulder, over Polux and Aleris to land on Ra-Khefer's shoulder.

Had 40' movement and left from Kito's earlier position.

CMW: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (1, 6) + 4 = 11

A healing glow spreads over his body as she lands.

Something is wrong! Where is the threat? What has Mistress so concerned!

There's head suddenly perks up and she quickly starts looking around in distress at all the strangers. She gives a small flutter of her wings and hops to Kito's other shoulder.

I think Des meant taking 10 gives a 21.

When she sees Deseri pointing towards them, Thera nudges Kito. She then patiently points her beak back towards Deseri.

This should be interesting. I know Mistress has no talent for deception, but perhaps we can make it look like she is supporting whatever her friend is doing.

Thera has always been an early riser, and this morning was no exception.

Seeing how mistress was still so soundly asleep when the sun was rising, she decided to assist. After a bit of a struggle, she managed to get Mistress's waterskin in position and then started pecking at the cork.

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10 Yup! Doesn't recognize the stabilize!

All done here! I stopped the bleeding! Back to mistress!

Seeing the nice big man was holding the angry fire-woman, Thera decides now is a good time to fly back to mistress! She was glad she was able to save the nice man who talks with her!

Once there, she proudly announces "أنا فعلت هذا! توقفت النزيف له!"

Heal check, see who is bleeding the worst: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Idori has stabilized. I think Harmose and Polux started at the same place, but Harmose has failed his stabilization roll. Harmose?

Sammy, feel free to change the destination if I'm overlooking something!

Thera flies down and lands on Harmose, delivering the Guidance spell.

Thera sits on Kito's shoulder, watching as the ceiling approaches. When there is a gap of about a foot, she chirps "وينبغي أن تكون مرتفعة بما فيه الكفاية، عشيقة!"

Thera flies back over to her perch on Kito's shoulder.

Thera flies over to Aleris and touches her, delivering the Guidance.

Samy, I'm not certain of the rules here. Normally you cast a touch spell, move, and then deliver it for free. With a Familiar, I'm not certain if the familiar's standard action is taken up by receiving the touch spell or not. I believe Thera can move over to Aleris, just not sure if she would have any actions left to return this round.

Edit to add: Some searching in the rules forum sort of answered the question. The valet archetype modifies Deliver Touch Spells so that they can specifically move before and after delivering the spell. Since Thera is a normal familiar (no archetypes) it stands to reason she can't do that.

Hey! I'm the only bird allowed here!

Go fly back to your own PbP!

Untrained Knowledge, Nature: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (9) - 2 = 7

Thera pecks at the sample and then chirps out a cheerful "طيب المذاق"

Thera flies off Aleris's shoulder and over to where the swarm was destroyed. She pecks at a few of the roasted scarabs.

Evidently she does not find them to her liking, as she quickly flies back to her normal perch on Kito's shoulder.

"أحرق لك بشكل سيئ للغاية!"

Flying over to land on Hermosa's shoulder, Thera chirps at him. "أنا يمكن أن يكون اثنين من مخطوطات لذيذ في نفس الأسبوع ؟ أنا يمكن أن تعتاد على ذلك!"

"هل بدا مرتاحا و كان الآخرون قادرة على تدمير الوحش خطير ." Thera chirps in response.

Harmose, amazingly, looks up from the spectacle that is Wenet's trampoline efforts. He raises an eyebrow. سرقت از معشوقه خود را مانند یک دزد در شب ؟ "

"فإنه لا يزال الصباح! هذه ليست سرقة ، هو أكثر من جدول التغذية المتسارع ."

Still struggling to get the pouch open, she also chirps "لماذا هي استخدام الحقائب التي تتطلب اليدين ل فتح ؟"

Seeing the monster destroyed, Thera chirps out a happy-sounding "عمل ممتاز! لا حاجة لايقاظ عشيقة ، وأنا متأكد من أنها يمكن أن تستخدم في النوم ."

She then slowly bird-steps to Kito's waist. Carefully pecking at one of the pouches there, she tries to open it with her beak.

Stealth, untrained: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (2) + 14 = 16

Will Save, Kito: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13 It seems Kito is not going to be any help at all this battle.

As Kito gently slumps to the floor, Thera becomes worried. Everyone had been talking in that strange tongue, so she had sort of lost interest. Looking around again, she sees the strange woman they were talking to suddenly transform and knows this is trouble.

Flapping her wings before Kito's face as she tries to wake her, she calls out "عشيقة! استيقظ! هذا ليس وقت ل قيلولة !"

Unfortunately, she only sleepily turns over -- never fully awakening.

Noticing her mistress by the door, Thera abandons the giant centipede eye. She flies over and lands in her normal spot on Kito's shoulder.

The small bird chirps out an excited "بالتأكيد!" and then flies over to the centipede corpse.

Pecking at one of the eyes, it swallows a chunk before saying "أنا لا أعتقد أنني يمكن أن تأكل كل هذا! أوه، وأنه قد مات."

Hearing it's name, the small bird immediately perks up and looks towards Kito.

"سمعت اسمي عشيقة. هل هناك شيء يمكنني القيام به؟"

Kito and the bird have a short discussion in Osiriani about the prospect.

The bird happily chirps "سيكون من دواعي سروري أن الكشفية الدوريات بالنسبة لك."

Thera blinks her eyes and looks back over Kito's shoulder at Harmose. "کتیبه؟ بله، زمانی که من خوش شانس هستم. آنها طعم جادویی! چرا می پرسی؟"

Thera excitedly chirps "من فضلك لا يضر مولاتي!" as she nervously flutters her wings. I really don't want to have to start all over training another one!

Diplomacy, Aid Another, Harmose: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (10) - 1 = 9 Failed.

So the total diplomacy result is 24.

Oh and just as a reminder, Osiriani and Ancient Osiriani are separate languages. ;)

So I should have had Thera do a Linguisitcs roll to recognize that the squiggles were actually writing in a different language?

Linguisitcs: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (2) - 1 = 1

Nope, squiggles! :)

Looking at Kito, the bird chirps "لديك بعض يتمايل على جبينك. هذا هو متعة خدعة، عشيقة!"

With a chirp and a quick flap of her wings, Thera flies over to land on Harmose's outstretched finger.

Once we are out of here, buying a scroll of Identify for Kito (well, technically Thera) may be worth it.

She could then learn the spell and once out of a dungeon Kito could memorize and cast it on any magic items we find, getting a 29 by taking 10 on the Spellcraft roll.

"ما حدث الخلل؟" Thera asks as she flies back to perch on Kito's shoulder.

Thera flies off Kito's shoulder and over to the rest of the group, looking for a safe place to land.

Thera gives a surprised "Churrr!" and tightens her grip as her mistresses suddenly leaps.

Don't forget that Polux is on vacation all this week!

Does that mean I get to peck his eyes out? Do they taste like bugs or grubs?

Thera gives a cheerful chirp when Harmose talks to her and immediately looks to Kito.

After Kito speaks to her the tiny thrush flies off her shoulder and up the stairs. Even from down where you are, you can hear the high-pitched chirps.

With a slight ruffle of feathers, Thera announces "أنا لست الطيور في وقت مبكر! من فضلك، لا تشجع عشيقة لها في العادة من الحصول على ما يصل قبل الديكة!"

"كانت من قطف التوت لذيذ." The bird then chirps happily.

Thera flutters her wings and flys over to perch on Hermosa's offered finger.

"لماذا وجدت لها! هذا هو السبيل لحكا."

Thera notices the rabbit is back on the table. Looking down, there is still one modest sized crumb left. Sweet, but no nuts or berries. I should share...

The small thrush grabs the remaining cookie fragment in her beak and flys with it across the table to the rabbit. She drops it on the table beside Wenet and then flies back to Kito's shoulder.

With a few short hops, the thrush lands in Aleris's hand and starts pecking at the pieces of cookie.

After a few bites, it looks over at Harmose and says "من فضلك قل لها شكرا لكم بالنسبة لي."

The bird seems quite content to sit in the palm of Aleris's hand as she eats the cookie crumbs.

Thera hops a little closer to Aleris and tilts her head to the side as Aleris speaks.

When the rabbit suddenly hops over to her, she turns and gently touches her beak to Wenet's nose in greeting. Looking up at Harmose, she states "يسرنا أن ألتقي بكم يا سيدي، نعم، اسمي ثيرا. ماذا فعلت سيدة الغناء بالنسبة لي؟"

Oh, look! A sylph! I bet I can get some food from her!

Suddenly the bird flies off Kito's shoulder and over to the waving Sylph. Landing on the table in front of her, the bird asks "هل لديك أي البق والتوت بالنسبة لي، سيدة جميلة"

Rabbits aren't as good as I am, mistress!

I think you need to find more interesting friends, Mistress Kito!
