Evan ac 16, ff 14; hp 5/18 Sunday November 14th, 2004 7:25:12 AM
Evan lays on the ground for a bit longer after Wilfire heals him, sort of taking inventory of all the aches and pains. He hears the dramatics between Uriel and Arm, rolling his eyes a little as the two go at it again. His grip tightens on his axes, just in case the goblins want to use the arguement as a distraction to attack again.
Arm d20+4=15 d20+4=14 Sunday November 14th, 2004 8:30:05 AM
Arm laughs heartily at Uriel's theatrics, bats Uriels hand aside, and says, "As tempting as the idea is, unlike you I am neither orclike NOR an orc-sympathizer, and shall NOT do your bidding, as I shall not in the future. I shall not evermore seek your help, and you shouldn't expect any from me. Better to die with my convictions intact than to be assisted by one of your ilk. One of these days you'll WISH that you had let me kill that orc, I promise you.".
Saying so, he turns to Mira, smiles and says, "Thank you, my dear, but my night-sight is quite sufficient for our purposes. Let us be off, then, as soon as Shadow is done searching the bodies.". He then turns his attention to keeping a weather-eye out for trouble as they prepare to depart (spot=15, listen=14).
OOC: Just to let you guys & gals know...I'm purely playing out my character here...nothing personal toward any of you.. :)
Uriel Sunday November 14th, 2004 10:00:43 AM
{OOC: As is Uriel (role-playing), but I don't think you would be 'batting' his hand aside. Uriel is very strong but I'll let you play it off even though Uriel was deadly serious}
Uriel Sunday November 14th, 2004 12:30:38 PM
Uriel smirks at Arm's words - "like I thought, you need your victims defenseless."
Uriel asks everyone, "Are you done searching Shadow?" Without actually waiting for a reply, Uriel moves to the front of the group and holds his torch high, with his sword in hand.
He begins to move back towards the city wall.
ADM Brent Sunday November 14th, 2004 12:44:58 PM
{Shadow, I'll send you a list of things you got off of the couple of goblins you had time to loot before the group begins to leave.}
The situation defused for the moment, the group begins moving back towards Plateau City. Everyone is silent, turned inward, relieved but worried about what they have found in the Shanty Quarter.
The citizens of the Shanty give the group a wide berth from the group's appearance blood, mud, sewage and worse have spackled the group, leaving them a motley bunch. The reaking stench of the group seems to be making an impression on the inhabitants of the Shanty as well with poorly disguished disgust cutting through the indifference normally displayed.
The City guard eyes the group dubiously as they approach. One of the guards asks, "Yer business in our fair city? We already have a full complement of sewer rats? Hah Hah Hah."
Laughing at his own joke, he notices the group's solemn appearance and his laughter dies. "No one has a sense of humor anymore, go on through."
As the night deepens, the group moves into more familiar stomping grounds. Finally the group makes it back to their apartment.
Conner Sunday November 14th, 2004 5:24:15 PM
Tired and hungry, Conner removes his armor and shield and heads for the bathes where the spattered blood and offal is quickly washed away. A large bruise causes him some discomfort from where the morningstar struck him from behind. His clothes are another matter. It takes repeated scrubbing and rinsing before he is satisfied that they are once again fit for wear.
Another hour is spent cleaning and polishing his armor, shield and sword. A close inspection reveals no significant damage to the blades edge.
Finally when all has been put to order he asks "Anyone for Sampson's?"
Kadaz Sunday November 14th, 2004 6:37:55 PM
Kadaz carefully washes Birdie's wounds and binds them up. Then he takes care of his own. "Samson's sounds good. We need a better plan when we return to root out these foul creatures. But I'm not sure Birdie or I will be in shape to return tomorrow."
Uriel d8+3=7 d8+3=10 d8+3=10 Sunday November 14th, 2004 7:21:10 PM
Uriel offers up healing to those who need it with the wand. He taps himself three times. {Heal:27}
Still wounded after tapping whoever asks, Uriel also strips off his armor and equipment. He goes to wash away the remnants of the encounter.
Upon returning, he hears Kadaz's statement and agrees, "Does anyone have any practical experience with goblins? I didn't expect any real tactics by them. How many did everyone see? I had four near me early and then I was flanked by another near the end of the fight."
Uriel is willing to go to Sampsons for food.
Mira (AC 13, 11/22 HP) Sunday November 14th, 2004 11:01:33 PM
Mira will avail herself of some healing from the paladin. Shyly she will ask if he would be able to tend to Evan as well. After a quick inventory of her remaining GP, the sorcerer will pack a light sack with a few personal items, and a spare shirt and head for the baths.
Upon her return, she will nod agreement at the suggestion that they go to Sampson's In response to Uriel's question she will volunteer, "I know naught of goblins, but what we experienced today." Remembering how quickly the creatures succumbed to her magic, she adds, "they do not seem particularly hardy, but they seem to attack in numbers."
Wilfire Ironhouse (HP 11/24) d8=8 Monday November 15th, 2004 12:35:51 AM
"It's good to be home" Wilfire says "but it sure would feel a whole lot better if Goblins weren't living in the shanty. I suggest we get some rest, cause tommorrow's going to be a long day."
Wilfire then smells both arm pits. "A shower might not be the worst idea either."
OOC- Before bathing Wilfire will use his last few spells to heal the most wounded. First he'll cast a cure light wounds (8+2=10) on the most wounded. Then he'll use his four cure minor wounds.
Evan Monday November 15th, 2004 5:36:15 AM
As they pass the guards, Evan will get MIra to ask where he should go to collect a bounty. He doesn't want to carry the body parts from the stinky garbage monster any longer than he has to. Once he has collected any bounty there is to collect for both the garbage creature and the goblins, Evan will return to the flat to get cleaned up and rest.
Arriving just in time to receive healing from Wilfire, he ends up needing all but one of Wilfire's healing spells. He is a little disappointed that he missed going to the bath with Mira then smiles ruefully to himself as he realizes he needs to keep his dream life separate from his real life. Despite the affection he percieves from Mira, he is terrified of doing anything that might screw up their friendship, and with the contention between Arm and Uriel, the party needs all the stability it can get.
Arm Monday November 15th, 2004 6:03:04 AM
Upon returning, Arm heads straight to the baths, where he thoroughly cleans himself. Arrivng back at the flat just in time to hear Mira's statement, he agrees, "Aye, they're neither strong nor hardy, but they attack in packs, not unlike wolves. NASTY little things.". So saying, he agrees to go to Samson's as well for something small to eat, intending to get some rest immediately afterward.
Shadow Monday November 15th, 2004 10:20:14 AM
Shadow on the way back is quite and stays near the middle of the group. When they reach the gate he lets out a sigh knowing that they are relatively safe now.
Once the group gets back to the apartment Shadow says, "I would like to clean up, and will meet you all back here, or at Sampson's." Seeing that the group is going to take care of their stuff, Shadow will head back to his 'room' at the guild. He will spend some time cleaning his gear and trying to get the reek out of it. He will inspect the stuff he got off the goblins more carefully and see if anything is recognizable.
Once he is done with all of that he will head over to the apartment to see if the group has left yet. Hopefully he will catch them before they have left, and he will show them an oddly cut gold coins with unrecognizable markings and the gold band with the inscription on it. If they have left, he will head over to Sampson's, and he will wait to show them the objects until they return to the apartments.
ADM Brent Monday November 15th, 2004 10:42:39 AM
{OOC:Shadow, sent you another email with answers to your questions}
ADM Brent d8+3=10 d8+3=10 d8+3=7 d8+3=11 Monday November 15th, 2004 8:56:33 PM
Uriel taps Kadaz twice with the wand {Heal:20} and Conner and Mira once each{Conner Heal:7 Mira Heal:11}.
After washing up the group heads over to Samson's to eat and discuss goblins and the group's plans.
Shadow shows up just before the group heads over to Samson's and comes along as well.
Samson's is packed but the group finds a long bench table just vacated.
The waitress, a new face, comes over to the group. "Hello to you all. You look thirsty." She winks at Conner, Arm and Uriel. "What can I get you to drink? Oh and we have hot meat pies tonight as well as soup, stew or roast joint."
Mira d20+11=20 d20+5=22 Monday November 15th, 2004 9:30:57 PM
"Roast joint sounds great!" exclaims Mira, hoping she'll be served a meaty portion. "Anyone up for sharing a bottle of red?" she asks, raising an eyebrow and looking in the direction of the ranger and the bard. "What do you drink, Shadow?" she enquires. If the rogue shows the sorcerer the items he has retrieved she will volunteer, "I have a little magic left and with a little time I may be able to learn if there is any aura of magic about the items, and even possibly decipher magical inscriptions. I might even be able to learn if there are any spells upon the items and identify them."

Conner [full hp] Tuesday November 16th, 2004 12:20:36 AM
Conner, concious of the lightness of his purse, orders a mug of ale, a bowl of stew and some bread. He gives the barmaid a big friendly smile and inquires after Amy.
Wilfire Ironhouse Tuesday November 16th, 2004 12:35:08 AM
"I'll have one of each" Wilfire says, completely serious.
As soon as he hears Conner order ale, Wilfire's face instantly grows red and he begins to tap his finger impatiently on the table... he seems at odds about something, but he doesn't say what.
OOC- Just curious if Wilfire cast those healing spells last round? If he didn't he'll use them on himself, if someone hasn't already.
ADM Brent - to Wilfire Tuesday November 16th, 2004 1:05:20 AM
{OOC:He used one on Evan. The others I figured you could use for yourself...}
Evan Tuesday November 16th, 2004 5:40:10 AM
(ooc: Did Evan get anything for bounty for the garbage monster?)
Evan cleans up quickly and heads over to Sampson's, arriving just in time to hear Mira ask if anyone wanted to share a bottle of red. He grabs a chair and swings it over next to Mira, smiling as he settles down. He signs to Mira that he would love to share a bottle or two with her and asks her to order the meat pie for him. Evan enjoys using sign with Mira because she has such lovely hands, with long elegant fingers that dance so nibbly as she 'speaks'.
Arm Tuesday November 16th, 2004 6:02:41 AM
Arm declines Mira's offer, and instead orders a mug of ale along with a bowl of stew & bread. While waiting for the food to arrive, he ruminates on his current situation, "It seems that I'd be better off playing some tunes to earn a living...the pay is better than as of late, and it's MUCH safer.".
ADM Brent - to Evan Tuesday November 16th, 2004 9:45:56 AM
{Sorry Evan - had a problem figuring out fair market value...also, last post I noticed from you about the goblins - you weren't going to take any parts because you didn't think there was a bounty - let me know if I am wrong.}
When Evan inquires of the guard, his eyebrows raise and his eyes widen. "I think we need to take this to Sarge. Come with me." He leads Evan into the guard post and to the Sergeant.
After hearing Evan's description of the monster and asking a few more questions about the location of the creature, the sergeant says, "I wouldn't believe it, if the arm of the creature wasn't sitting on my desk reeking! Take that with you and this" He hands Evan a sealed letter. "Take the letter to the central Guard post and the Bursars office will give a bounty of 45 GP. Thanks for slaying such a foul creature." He wrinkles his nose.
Shadow Tuesday November 16th, 2004 10:29:31 AM
"I'll have some stew and an ale." Shadow says to the waitress.
"Group, unfortunately I don't think Evred made it." With that Shadow shows the group the gold ring with the inscription - 'Beloved son, Evred'. "I also found these on one goblin." Shadow shows the group the funny gold coins.
Conner d20+1=5 Tuesday November 16th, 2004 6:50:44 PM
Conner examines the gold coins, mentally comparing them to the other strange coins they had found while investigating Avandri and matters related to the estate at Wyclea. [Appraise=5]
Kadaz (HP 10/32) & Birdie ( HP 2/7) Tuesday November 16th, 2004 7:33:31 PM
Kadaz watches the healing being passed out and pipes up "If you have any to spare could you help Birdie and then me? I'm afraid those goblins were very effective in their attacks on me."
ADM Brent - to Kadaz Tuesday November 16th, 2004 7:39:45 PM
{OOC:Hey Bub - you got 20 points from Uriel's wand so you are at 30 not 10, check out the beginning of my last general ADM post - lol!}
Uriel Tuesday November 16th, 2004 7:48:27 PM
Uriel orders two meat pies and roast joint along with ale.
While he eats he says, "So, what about these goblins? I agree that individually they are not much but the old adage of strength in numbers was proven true tonight."
When Shadow mentions Evred, Uriel slams his fist down on the table. "Domi blind their eyes! No one should fall to such a terrible fate."
He scoots his plate away, his appetite gone. "What should we do to prepare to return to the Heap?"
ADM Brent Tuesday November 16th, 2004 7:48:30 PM
Your food and drinks are brought to the group and everyone begins talking about different things.
To Conner, the waitress says, "She didn't come in today. And I don't appreciate it."
{OOC:Just continue to post freely, discussing topics of interest. I will chime in as needed}
Wilfire Ironhouse (HP 15/24) Wednesday November 17th, 2004 12:07:45 AM
As the drinks arrive Wilfire picks up the power and pace of his finger tapping, and his face grows increasingly agitated. With his other hand he raises his fork to his mouth, but then slams it down on the table and stands up.
"Excuse me" he says with a somewhat distraught look on his face. "Got to go to the bathroom."
Without turning back he walks away, leaving his warm meal unattended.
Evan Wednesday November 17th, 2004 5:47:27 AM
Before leaving the guard shack to go collect the bounty on the garbage monster, Evan scribbles down another question for the guard. <i>What about goblins? We encountered quite a few goblins at the dump as well. do you give bounty for goblins?</i>
After getting his answer he heads over to the Central guard post to collect the bounty.
Arm Wednesday November 17th, 2004 6:07:07 AM
Noticing Wilf's obvious agitation, Arm gets up from his meal as well and follows him. When he catches up, he asks, "What is troubling you, my friend? Perhaps I can help?".
Shadow Wednesday November 17th, 2004 11:01:16 AM
Shadow will remain quite waiting to see if any one else comes up with any ideas about the coins or the trash heap. He will sip at his ale and take a few bites of the stew. He will probably not eat it all even though he is fairly hungry.
ADM Brent - to Evan Wednesday November 17th, 2004 11:11:04 AM
The sergeant reads the writing on the slip. "Yes, bring pairs of ears for the reward. As long as the goblins are within 20 miles of the city. Don't be toting them from all over the continent here." He smiles and says,"Is that all, I'd really like you to take that tenacle out of here before the smell sets into my office."
Mira Wednesday November 17th, 2004 6:22:49 PM
Mira rubs her forehead in frustration when her magic doesn't seem to yield the results she was expecting. "Sorry, Shadow, I don't seem to be on my game tonight."
The mage pushes her glass towards Evan, hoping he'll uncork the bottle and pour. When the joint of meat is served up, she takes her time, but manages to eat the whole thing, enjoying every mouthful.
(OOC: Brent, did any of Mira's attempts to detect or read magic about the artifacts yeild results? See Monday's post.)
Kadaz (HP 30/32) & Birdie ( HP 2/7) Wednesday November 17th, 2004 6:59:26 PM
Kadaz belatedly gratefully acknowledges the healing he received. "Do you have a spare charge in that little thing for Birdie?" he inquires hopefully.
Kadaz then concentrates on his supper, ordering a spare one for the dog. "He deserves it" he explains to anyone who asks.
"So we're after more goblins tomorrow? Anyone got a plan this time?"
ADM Brent Wednesday November 17th, 2004 7:16:40 PM
{OOC: Mira, I didn't do your read/detect magic because your character had no way of knowing of the ring or coins when you wanted to do it - that was a 'private post' from Shadow to me...} However, the detect/read magic reveals nothing else. The inscription reads, "Beloved Son, Evred."
The coins are an odd triangular shape not recognized by any of the group.
Conner Wednesday November 17th, 2004 7:27:17 PM
Conner continues his meal, digging into the stew and washing it down with long pulls on his mug of ale. He calls the barmaid over to the table for another pint and to ask about Amy, "it's not like her to beg off work for no reason...did she send a message?"
When Kadaz and the others talk of tactics the fighter's attention shifts to planning for the next day.
"Seems they prefer to engage from a distance" Conner rubs the tattoo on his temple, "if we can get in close they should go down fairly easy. If Kadaz, Uriel and I rush them, the rest of you can give them some of their own medicine from a distance. The key is to not get isolated by a group of them."
Another gulp of beer and the fighter continues with his thoughts. "They probably have some kind of underground stronghold under the trash so we'll need sources of light. Say, does anyone have anything that can hit a group of them all at once...it would sure help if we could take out a bunch of them real early."
Uriel d8+3=7 Wednesday November 17th, 2004 8:25:55 PM
"You are welcome for the healing, Kadaz. I didn't mean to forget Birdie. When we get back I will heal on him to." {Whenever we get back, Uriel taps Birdie for 7}
Uriel snorts at Arm going after Wilfire. To Uriel says vehemently, "I like the tactics of storming them to hit them hard and keeping the other group members back - that's a good idea."
"Those are odd looking coins - anyone else seen anything like those before?" Uriel asks to the whole group.
When Kadaz mentions going after the goblins the next day, Uriel asks, "Should we do any other investigations or ask any more questions? I would love to head back tomorrow but I don't know if we should go blindly."
ADM Brent - to Conner Wednesday November 17th, 2004 8:31:46 PM
The harried barmaid, no longer flirting with anyone says slowly to Conner,"I AM LISA, not Amy's mom. I ain't her wet nurse, so do your sniffin' around with someone else!"
She hurries off to a rowdy bunch of highland mercenaries, laughing and pinching on her, as they sing a ribald song.
Wilfire Ironhouse Thursday November 18th, 2004 1:21:06 AM
Wilfire's face is still red when Arm catches up to him. He tries to bluff him with the bathroom excuse, but he realizes he's not a very good bluffer, so he might as well come clean.
"It's the drink" he says with a deep sigh. "I have... I have... a drinking problem"
The burly dwarf looks as if he has the weight of the world on his shoulders.
Arm Thursday November 18th, 2004 6:03:17 AM
Arm lays a hand on Wilf's shoulder and says, "I'm deeply sorry, my friend. If it's any solace to you, we ALL have demons that we must face: some alive, some not. Know this...if you should need someone to talk to, I'll be here for you. If you wish, we can take our food outside to finish it...I'm certain that Samson wouldn't mind.".
Evan Thursday November 18th, 2004 6:09:41 AM
At the Guard Post: Evan chuckles silently as he gathers up the tentacle and disposes of it outside. He's gotten sort of used to the smell since he'd carried it for so long. Once he is done disposing of the tentacle, Evan makes his way to the Central Guard Post to collect his bounty and deliver the letter.
At Sampson's: Evan pops the cork on the bottle of red and pours Mira a glass as well as himself. He Sets the bottle down then lays a bag of coins on the table next to it for Mira to examine. Signing to Mira so she can translate to the others, The city paid 45 gold for killing the garbage monster. They are also offering bounty for pairs of goblin's ears as long as we acquire the ears within 20 miles of the city. With better tactics, we could make ourselves a pretty penny, as well as the gratitude of the city for ridding it of some unwanted pests.
Conner Thursday November 18th, 2004 8:14:54 AM
The burly fighter thumps the table with his hand and laughs out loud at the outburst from the barmaid. "Must be tired" he thinks to himself "I didn't ever recognize her come-on...thought she was just mad that she got called in to cover for Amy". He watches her sashay away to another table where the reception is much more friendly. "Lisa, I'll have to remember her" he muses.
Shadow Thursday November 18th, 2004 11:00:44 AM
Shadow will continue to listen to the group as they discuss what is going to happen on the next day. He will sip at his ale as the night wears on. "Do we need anything else for tomorrow's excursion?" Shadow asks.
(OOC: DMs I won another potion of cure moderate wounds from the LnB, so is it okay to add it along with the other one?)
Wilfire Ironhouse Thursday November 18th, 2004 7:18:11 PM
Wilfire is touched by Arm's kindness. With a slight smile he accepts the offer to finish their meals outside.
"When I was a younger man, I spent most of my time doing two things- drinking and fighting" Wilfire explained. "At that time I was angrier than a looted dragon, and I would have stayed that way were it not for the Gods callin my name. Sure as I'm standing here, they said 'Ironhouse, if you're going to waste your time fightin, might as well fight in the services of powers greater than you'".
"Seemed like decent advice, so that's what I did, and I've served the cloth ever since. Yet I'm afraid old habits die hard. The firey forge of anger still burns deep inside Ironhouse. And the drink still calls my name."
Mira Thursday November 18th, 2004 10:25:11 PM
Mira translates for Evan, advising the group that should they encounter goblins again, there could be some money in it.
Mira places 4 vials on the table next to Evan's pouch. "These are potions for restoring health (CLW). I have kept one for myself, but those who do not have any, should take at least one. In the heat of battle, those with the gift of healing may not always be on hand to lend immediate assistance."
(Folks, please do take a potion if you don't have at least one!)
Arm Friday November 19th, 2004 6:07:56 AM
Arm picks up his bowl and follows Wilf outside. Taking in a deep breath of the clear night air and finding he can STILL smell the stench of the garbage dump (unless it's imagined), Arm begins to tell Wilf of his OWN past...the wholesale slaughter of his entire village by the orcs and his subsequent crusade against them. "I swore on the bodies of my parents," he continues, "to not let an orc live while I still draw breath. Thanks to the "paladin" in there, (he literally spits out that word) I have been prevented from doing so. I am still coming to grips with that, but you see...we ALL have things that haunt us. Do I have an answer? No, I think not...perhaps I may never have one...however, the sun shall rise in the morn as surely as we're standing here. Our only hope is that when enough of those occur, the pain will at the least be dulled. I know that's not much consolation, but it's all I have right now. Hope this has helped you.".
Uriel Friday November 19th, 2004 7:56:57 AM
To Shadow, Uriel says, "We need more torches maybe. I only have 4 more torches. And some oil. Does everybody have rope? I mean making the assumption that they live 'under the trash'."
"I will keep a hold of the wand for now I suppose so I will pass on the potion Mira," Uriel says of her offer.
ADM Brent - Roleplay or Next Day? Friday November 19th, 2004 8:00:33 AM
{I perfectly willing to allow the roleplay/discussion/research to continue here - or if you are ready to call it a night and move onto the next day that works to.}
The group continues to talk amongst themselves while eating the fine fare of Samson's. The boisterous group nearby are challenging one another to arm wrestling, bringing the din to a loud roar.
The conversations at the other tables can scarcely be heard.
Shadow Friday November 19th, 2004 2:38:52 PM
Shadow will continue to listen to the group trying to determine what might be needed for tomorrow. "I do have a few potions that might be useful for injuries tomorrow." He adds to the group.
Conner Friday November 19th, 2004 6:12:41 PM
"I'll stop by the catacombs on the way to the shanty quarter and pick up some sunrods, they would come in handy."
Conner finishes the rest of his meal and goes in search of Amy.
Mira Friday November 19th, 2004 7:58:18 PM
Mira yawns. "If I get a good night of sleep, I should be good for taking out a half dozen goblins," volunteers the mage. The sorcerer pushers her plate away, and drains the last of her wine.
"Ready to go back to the flat?" she asks, looking at Evan and signing.
Kadaz Friday November 19th, 2004 10:37:03 PM
Kadaz thinks on what he knows about goblins. "We will probably have little chance finding them in the day. They seem to be night creatures. And their lair may be well hidden. If we go out tomorrow afternoon and hide ourselves maybe we can get the jump on them.
"By the way, didn't we find a piece of jewelry with someone's name on it? Maybe this belonged to a missing person."
Uriel Friday November 19th, 2004 11:36:05 PM
Uriel laughs at Mira's statement, "Here Here for our Mage. She has more than enough heart to make her a warrior true!"
Uriel shakes his head at Kadaz - "I prefer to hit them during the day. If we go early, then we have longer to search out where the hideout it located. Also, if we hit them during the day, it will be like someone hitting us at night. We should have the advantage against their sleep cycle."
"Kadaz, that ring. It mentioned Evred - remember Kethlorn's missing friend? His name was Evred," Uriel mentions solemnly.
Shadow Saturday November 20th, 2004 11:07:22 AM
Shadow smiles at the mage's confidence and shakes his head in agreement.
Shadow is about to tell Kadaz about the ring when Uriel beats him to the punch and Shadow can only say, "Yes, the ring I am sure belonged to Evred and I think we should not say anything until we are sure what has happened to him."
Evan Sunday November 21st, 2004 7:28:29 AM
Evan watches as Arm and Wilf wander off before he can go over some tactical signals with the group. Realizing he'll have to do it in the morning while they walk to the garbage dump, Evan smiles and agrees that he is definitely ready to head back to the flat. Despite the healing, he still has an ache where he was clobbered with the morningstar.
Wilfire Ironhouse (HP 15/24) Sunday November 21st, 2004 7:03:42 PM
Wilfire listens carefully to everything Arm says. A look of compassion crosses his face when he hears the story of how Arm's village was wiped out by Orcs. Suddenly Wilfire's drinking problem seemed a small thing indeed, compared to the trials Arm had been through.
"Thank you my friend" Wilfire said. "Suddenly I do feel much better. I am certain I will sleep a little better this evening, thanks to you."
With that said Wilfire eat the rest of his meal, while listening to whatever Arm has to say. Once completed he will check on the others, and then retire to bed.
Uriel {AC:17 HP:32/33} d8+3=8 Sunday November 21st, 2004 9:58:19 PM
Uriel, noticing Wilfire's wounds, taps him with a wand (if Wilfire agrees) (Heal:8)
ADM Brent Monday November 22nd, 2004 12:16:16 AM
The group finishes up with their plans for the next morning, leaving only one question. Will the group go during the morning and search during the day or lie in wait and attack the goblins at night?
{Feel free to post one more post before we begin the next day of gaming. Please try and tie up any loose ends about questions of when you are going to hit the Heap, etc.}
We will begin the adventure in earnest again tomorrow.
Wilfire Ironhouse (23/24) Monday November 22nd, 2004 1:48:02 AM
"Why thank you" Wilfire says when he Uriel uses his wand of healing. "I needed that."
Then to everyone else he says the following:
"I'll be turning in then. Want to get an early start in the morning, so we can do some huntin with the sun over our heads. Those darn Goblins see too well in the night."
Arm Monday November 22nd, 2004 5:58:13 AM
Arm smiles as well at Wilf's comments and says, "Aye, that is a good thing. I can use with a bit of rest myself.". He finishes his stew and returns the bowl to the table, takes his leave and returns to the flat for some well-deserved rest, intending to hit the garbage heap in the morning for more goblin-bashing.
Evan Monday November 22nd, 2004 6:00:21 AM
Despite Evan's exhaustion, before he slips into bed, he takes the time to clean up his armor and a run a file along the edge of his axes to take off any nicks or burrs that may have come up due to the fighting. He tries his best to keep the noise at a minimum so as to not disturb Mira as she prepares for bed. And as much as he tries to maintain his concentration, Evan is fully aware of the lithe beautiful woman that shares a room with him.
Conner Monday November 22nd, 2004 7:34:53 AM
Conner returns to the apartments and bed.
Mira Monday November 22nd, 2004 7:51:15 AM
With an appologetic smile, Mira draws the make-shift curtain across the half-way point in the room, and makes her bedtime preperations. Using a little of the magical energy that remains to her, she casts a Light spell upon her pendant, and hangs it from the shelf Evan built for her. Snuggling under the covers, she is barely aware of the quiet schick, schick as the ranger sharpens his weapons, so intent is her focus on the study of her scrolls.
As the light gradually fades, she returns the documents to their case, closes her eyes, and falls into a deep restorative sleep.
Wilfire Ironhouse Monday November 22nd, 2004 8:18:43 AM
OOC- I'm just curious... where exactly does Wilfire sleep?
Before laying down, Wilfire removes his armor and takes a few minutes to inspect both it and is trusted flail for any signs of damage.
"Got to be ready for tommorrow" he thinks to himself. "And can't be freezin up in no more battles. Coulda cost lives from my hesitation today. How would I ever live that down?"
Taking a position at the foot of the bed Wilfire says a short prayer, and then retires for the night.
Shadow Monday November 22nd, 2004 9:53:07 AM
"I hope we agree that attacking the goblins during the moringin (day) would be best." Shadow puts his two cents worth in.
"Goodnight everyone." Shadow says as the group leaves Sampsons. He will again head to his bunk in the guild, and then rejoin the group in the morning.
Kadaz Monday November 22nd, 2004 5:00:06 PM
Back at the house, Kadaz also takes time to carefully check over his weapons and armor, repairing any damage he can. By the time he is done, Birdie is sound asleep on the bed, resting up for tomorrow. Kadaz climbs in under the covers, trying not to disturb his friend.
Uriel Monday November 22nd, 2004 11:51:50 PM
Uriel finishes his food and wine, then goes back to the flat and checks his gear and weapons before doing his meditation and then going to sleep.
