Grim shuts out the witless prattle and slips into a trance.Witch sighs. "Alright, Grim clearly is tired of this. Enough. D'Armon and Greenfellow can tag along if they like, it makes little difference to me as long as they don't cause trouble."
"What trouble can they cause? We're only another few hours from home and once you gentlemen have escorted me there, our contract is completed. ... Until next time if you are willing to guard me again in my travels. I have heard of a girl a few days west of here who claims that her long dead mother often comes to her at night to comb her hair. I am sure that with a little probing, I could help her to deal with her mother's death without such imaginings."
Looks like Dayenn should get us back to his place.
Radavel, I made one non-RAW rule and I just wanted to know if you're okay with it? I added Longsword as a weapon proficiency since it's the deity's favoured weapon and I've always felt it strange that the clergy isn't proficient with their diety's favoured weapon.
It sounds like Armand and Vivienne are in town. I guess we should pack up and hit the roads in the morning.

Sounds like a good idea. Fun totally improv roleplaying this. Reminds me of improv soap operas I used to watch.
Let's get back to town though ... Hey, Rad, where do I live? If I have an apartment/office what would my monthly rent be?
It sounds like Armand and Vivienne are in town...
Yeah, perhaps they even know each other.

Hey, Rad, where do I live? If I have an apartment/office what would my monthly rent be?
A wealthy client has allowed you the free use of one of his apartments in the Noble Quarter (Quartier Savant) after experiencing one of your healing sessions. Its a three story building with lots of room. Very private. There is even an access to the sewers.
BTW, is Dayenn Naight a faculty at the University of Dementlieu, just outside of the city?

"I fear that we shall learn the answer to that question. No matter. I'm not one to break my word.

'His'? I would have assumed it was from a wealthy female client. ;-)

I envisioned him as being on a leave of absence due to his unconventional research.
I shall trust in Tarren's sick sense of narrative to bring us all into town so we can hook up.
Grim will concede some interest in Dayenn's research but has no wish to alter his memories, otherwise he would have done so himself. He does not see himself as a hired goon, but as a do-gooder, and regards Dayenn as a magnet for trouble - plus he thinks someone needs to keep an eye on Marius.

As for Witch, he feels obliged to keep his promises.

Nathaniel will continue in the morning with the group to Port-A-Lucine, hoping to find answers to his questions there. Once there, he has no real intention of continuing his association with the others , but he will no doubt be somewhat lost in the large city, and may take any offered assistance in finding his feet.
He feels something of a kinship with Grim and the Witchbrand, but does not care for Daeyen’s theories or probing questions, or Marius’ snide attitude.

Just to confirm the location of the PCs
In the City: Viviene and Armand
Headed for the City: Dayenn, Grim, Witch, Marius and Nathaniel
Right?
For Armand and Nathaniel
If the answer to the questions is "Yes" then we have a serial killer on our hands.
In the City: Viviene and Armand
Headed for the City: Dayenn, Grim, Witch, Marius and Nathaniel
Right?
Everyone but Marius has chimed in on that positively, and I'm sure he'll be fine. It's all the sooner he can become the new Dark Power if he takes over the city.
My affection perhaps...? Oh, you certainly would not want that.

Kruelaid, stop giving him ideas.
For Armand and Nathaniel
** spoiler omitted **
My idea of how Armand's wife (Marie) died was that she in a fit of insanity committed suicide in some way (either on purpose, i.e. directly damaging herself, or indirectly, e.g. by falling off a building, throwing herself on a spiky cast iron fence etc.). Armand is sure that she must have been either possessed in some way or something must have "stolen" her sanity and is now searching for clues to what kind of "mind" demon could have done such a thing.
Whether she actually was possessed or just went plain bonkers I'll leave up to you. :-D
Bonkers seems to be the trade and currency of this lot.

We're all one big happy dysfunctional family... erm... so really just a "normal" family. :-D
EDIT:Btw Kruelaid, just in case you haven't seen it yet: Good News!
Btw Kruelaid, just in case you haven't seen it yet: Good News!
Woohoo!
BTW Rad,
There's a new module up for free on Digital Dungeon that looks like it might have something for a Ravenloft DM. I promise I won't read it until you have had a look at it just in case you're interested in using it.
Right now all I know about it is that it involves burning young women with magical abilities, and it's by werecabbage Great Green God, aka Mathew Conklin.
If you're not interested let me know so I can read it.
;)
Here's the link: Witching Season
Bonkers seems to be the trade and currency of this lot.We do seem to have that in common. Man, if only you guys weren't all so afraid of being cured, Dayenn could make a fortune off of the party and their families alone.
Grim will explain, in no uncertain terms, that he wants to remember everything, and that he believes that memories make us who we are, and 'erasing' them just because they are bad is dehumanizing.
With this whole 'tutored by mystic aunt' psychic warrior thing I'm working him out as a sort of a common-sense-philosopher-knight with a bad temper, it looks like it will foil well with the professor.
Burning young women with magical power... sounds like an episode of Charmed.
Got me a copy of the complete series and I'm still in Season 1.
I caught the first few episodes but it didn't really catch me. It was certainly a good show - I guess I just have so little time for TV that I'm exceedingly choosy about what I watch now.
"Charmed" was a fixed date for our apartment-sharing community. Combined with Buffy and/or Angel we had a perfect Wednesday evening.
Now Buffy, that I watched a lot of.

Works for me. The professor is like many academics: so obsessed with what he can do that he is pays no attention to whether or not he should do it. The ethical problems of what he is doing are of rather little importance to him. That's why I assigned him a Lawful Neutral alignment. Lawful for his belief in the power of reason and logic. Neutral for his lack of ethical awareness.
He doesn't make people forget though. He makes them remember. He takes people back to traumatic moments and has them relive everything.

So not so much of a quack by modern standards. Then Grim's answer would probably be: "I can relive it any time I want."
En... I'm getting a rash sitting by this campfire.

"Perhaps Marius could have a look at that for you."
shoots daggers from his eyes at Dayenn "I don't look at other men butts...."
Witch sighs. "I wish we could get going. It will be morning soon."
"I don't know about the rest of you but a Port-a-Lucine inn sounds much warmer and comfortable than this campfire" gets up and start walking in the general direction of the city.

Witch sighs again. "Well, professor, there goes your 'successful case'. I suppose we should follow him. I understand that I see better in the dark than some others, so..." he bangs his staff on the ground, and it lights up. "Now lets go."

"Exactly. See how fearless he is?"
"I suppose we should follow him. I understand that I see better in the dark than some others, so..." he bangs his staff on the ground, and it lights up. "Now lets go."
"Yes. Let's go. After all, the stories about boogeymen lurking in these woods to chew on the necks of uncautious travellers are no doubt manifestations of our innermost fears and desires ... BLAH BLAH BLAH ..."
grumble
"What? The doctor is not in the house? You said to me yesterday, that he would be available this morning. Here I am. And? Where is he? Tell him, I am furious about his lack of reliability."
Vivienne storms out of the house of the doctor and right into the tavern across the street.

Slinky, hot-tempered, and a heavy drinker. Sounds like half of my ex-girlfriends.

"Could there be a reason that you are repeatedly attracted to women who can't control their tempers or drinking, Tarren? ... Anything you'd like to address?"
