What an incredible opportunity! Adventurers, no, that word is far from adequate. Protectors of the weak, a group of eight, have stepped up into a new hierarchy of hero by deciding to also protect the strong. How many groups of various classes have rescued an artifact... from itself?
Malgant lays out a sound plan, with plenty of ideas, but none of them guarantees of safety, but then again, the Wold has never been safe for anybody or anything, at least since the Teucri decided to disappear.
Nebin feels over whelmed with all that he is witness too. The recent migration of the Wold has sent him to an unknown land where he has met unknown people and now he has visited unknown places and seen things unknown to most. That's a lot to process, about four days of activity.
Appolo avoids the conversation and instead, looks out upon the stars, planets and the labyrinth that continues on throughout the small solar system of Jericho Space.
Aztyr is somehow in wonder at what she said. All those bonuses to her glibness has left her tongue thick, but she did an excellent job and when you are in a pinch, that is all that matters! Her work done, she lets others continue the conversation. Please mark the date and reason for the Hero Point use, for the record. Also, unless there is a post returning the headband, it will be assumed it is kept.
Whysper is willing to let her rescuers do the bargaining and is hopeful, her friend whose life she saved at one time, does not endanger any progress the liontaurs and minotaur have made by continuing to add to the negotiation.
Vorelle holds still and uses her magic to become less noticeable. She too has seen many wondrous things and scary things, since she has entered this device. The ranger waits for the others in the group to do the talking.
Uel has much to write and is now preoccupied with using just the right words when he relates all he has seen since he lost track of time. So far in idle conversation, The wizard has learned, him and his female rogue friend have been in a suspended animation for over five years or two migrations ago, roughly.
Vauhwyt continues to protect herself from the bright sun that is so large. She quietly contemplates all that has happened since they entered.
To answer the mighty Protectors question, it simply replies in the backs of your mind, "My purpose is to serve and protect. Without this reason for existence, I somehow feel empty."
At this time a shift in the labyrinth occurs. It begins to become hazy and then flickers a bright white, then back to the cosmos and then back to white light, completely surrounding you all. Then, all of a sudden, you are all in a bright white room. It's gravity is normal as you walk around on a flat surface, but there is no boundary that you can see. It is completely empty, void of any objects except for the party members and a small fairy woman of the tallest proportions. Her wide hips, hairy feet and boulbous nose do not distract you away from her sheer beauty, cloaked in leaves of Oak and the ancient Taurwood tree that inhabit the many islands in the region. She smiles with a look of a childs pure innocence and all the noble races of the Wold seem to be reflected in her features. For those of you that were able to see her face in the red ruby during the first obstacle, they can now see, her weary face seems refreshed and her demeanor rejuvenated.
A plethora of bells ring around you as her lips begin to move. It is not at all unpleasant and their sounds create a frequency that is understandable to your mind, using the auditory systems of your body. "Thank you ever so much for coming to our rescue. It has been such a very long time since I had my own thoughts, I nearly forgot what it was like."
As smiles the Fairy Lady casually sits down in a cross legged manner, at ease at last and willing to explain, "I know you all have many questions, so I will relate to you our tale."
Her visage takes on that of a story teller as she begins with a flourish, "It was so long ago, that the noble races were not even aware of magic. It was the time of Eberyon in his glory while The Jericho watched with interest, and mortals played out their short lived lives. The Guardians were also created by The Jericho. Gargul being one of them begins infusing monsters with the Feystone and Alemi attempts to thwart his attempts. Near defeat, Alemi calls upon the Gods of Yore for assistance against the Guardian of Darkness and Death. Alemi with all his power uses the Soulforge to contact the Jericho for assistance and for some, unknown reason fails. Then, The Guardians guardian Domi, takes up the Soulforge and manipulates it to contact The mighty Jericho and solicits it's aid. Now, while The Wrestler does that, Alemi negotiates with the Gold Dragons, telling them of The God of Yore and their complacency against the evil of Gargul. He using the Feystone that Domi gained and the power of the Gold Dragons, their alliance was capable of ridding the Wold of those gods that care not and may even interfere with the mortals The Jericho and my liege lord Eberyon created.
Now, time passes and the Guardians have turned rogue. Mortals grow in number and the time comes for a new age." Her hands and arms move and illistrate different parts of her story. The bells chime to a crescendo as the story comes to the end of the First Age.
Then, sadness replaces her excited features, "Then, everything went white for those fairies that inhabited this region of the Wold. The new age, the Second Age, triggered the protection parameters of this artifact to activate in the situation of a cataclysm. The power of the Teucri was even to much for the normal fairies. I could have avoided the effect myself, but every large group needs a leader, so, knowing what might happen, I joined my brothers and sisters into a possible eternity of confinement along with all the other living creatures in the area.
We were able to form our own environment according to our needs, by the power of the artifact but we were not able to find a way out at first. Then, we found the labyrinth entrance for that is also what we desired. I entered searching for some exit when I saw in a very white room such as this, a large diamond. Well, magic being as it is, I thought I could manipulate it, yet, it's power was to much even for me and I sparked within it a new intelligence. It became cognizant with a combination of the advanced Teucri and the power of Eberyon.
She holds her hands up in the air, "Now, we are free to travel wherever we desire. I for one will be remaining in this area. Although the device was quite a nuisance, it only did what it was created for, among other things. I think the fairies will become it's new guardian. If anyone with ill intentions attempts to manipulate our friend, we will be sure to make their stay most miserable." She smiles wide, showing perfect teeth.
She easily hops up onto her two feet, bells continue to chime, "Now, what shall we do for you? I suppose your mortal desires crave power, gold, adoration from the opposite sex? Come now, you all have earned a reward for what you have done and I plan to see to it, you get exactly what you deserve." She winks at the group and a magical twinkle appears in that eye. You all feel as if you could be effected by a very powerful spell. One might be careful what next they say, for it may come true, but remember the ways of Eberyon, for every action, there is an equal and sometimes unequal, opposite reaction.

OOC WOW! I have to get to work now, so I don't have time to put down a proper answer. Lots to think about today though while I formulate one. Awesome ending though.
ADM- Hi guys! Friday March 12th, 2010 10:34:32 PM
Just Introducing myself... Im Marty, new ADM on this game. Im hoping to have a good time, and bring something new to you guys. I've read a bit about the characters and woldipedia's info as well...
Vauhwyt (HP90+18 AC28) and Mookie (HP45+18 AC19) Saturday March 13th, 2010 1:20:32 AM BEFORE the wish is granted.
Vauhwyt changs back to liontaur form and nudges Aztyr in the ribs. "Um, could I get my magic item back, please?" she asks.
And BEFORE the fairy says, "Now what shall we do for you" -- Vauhwyt bows to her and says, "Thank you for telling us your history, and thank you for taking on the duty of guarding this place and this intelligent machine. And if ever the Soulseekers of Gargul comes to thwart you, for they do not hold with the fey, nor with items who have souls, then tell such Soulseekers that you are under the protection of Vauhwyt, Grim of Gargul, and that none beloved of Gargul should disturb you without my leave. For so long as you thwart the Dread, which is to say, the undead cult who fought us herre, that protection will remain strong for you."
OOC: Wish still to come.

I'd be careful though.

Whysper (AC 23 - HP 48+20/48) Saturday March 13th, 2010 7:01:46 PM
Whysper chuckles to herself at Uel's request of the fairy. She finds it hard to picture her long time friend being as a people person.
Still, it would be interesting to see what this fairy does for the Drow. She watches Uel carefully, and awaits the fairy's response to his request.
"Noone has ever asked me what I wanted before. If this fairy is genuine, I really need to consider this" she thinks to herself.
Vorelle [hp 99/102] Sunday March 14th, 2010 1:19:19 PM
Vorelle looks hesitantly at her companions. There is something she wants, and wants badly. But she also knows that wishes granted by faeries can have unintended consequenses. Does she dare....?

OOC: I think it would be a tongues spell or something. haven't really looked it up. For our new DM this is due to the problem with Nebin's summons. He's mainly an elemental summoner but since he can't communicate with them it severely limits what he can do with them. It turned into a real problem in my own opinion.

Whysper (AC 23 - HP 48+20/48) Sunday March 14th, 2010 8:08:54 PM
There are so many things Whysper would like to wish for, but rarely do such things come without strings.
Highlight to display spoiler... Highlight to display spoiler: { There are many things that she longs for: To be able to find and track down her biological father, to heal her physical and emotional scars, to finally be seen as an equal by the elves... }
She decides to make a humble request that - should it backfire - should only affect her.
She bows slightly to the fairy "Whilst I do not seek a reward from you, I would be grateful if you could make me a lot more agile - though not at the expense of any of my other abilities of course."
OOC: Asking for an increase to Dexterity
Light Fortification, AC 26, 92/92 hp Malgant Sunday March 14th, 2010 8:36:40 PM
As soon as Malgant hears the Fairy's words that their reward can be in any form, or more precisely 'whatever they desire', his thoughts immediately shift to Val. He wants to be transported to her side so that they can resolve whatever undead issue plagues the people she was sent to and she can return to the group. His thoughts quickly form and he turns to the Fairy and expresses them. " When the Wold last shifted and there was a great earthquake, one of our number was randomly teleported away. I wish to be sent to her side so that I can help her save the people she found herself among. Her name is Valanthe. If the others of the group wish to come too I wish them to be included as well.

Vauhwyt (HP90+18 AC28) and Mookie (HP45+18 AC19) Sunday March 14th, 2010 10:04:32 PM
For our new DMs, and for any of my fellow players who need a reminder, Vauhwyt always wears her mane-like hair short and swept back on one side, but long and concealing half her face on the other side. On the one side, you can see one of the earrings she usually wears. On the other side, you can't see her ear at all.
Well, now the liontaur steps forward. "I have a wish," she says. "When I was a cub, I was enslaved to a tribe of goblins in Izen. They abused me and mutilated me. This is what I got from them." She sweeps back the hair on one side: All that remains on the side of her head is a red mass of scars where an ear once was.
"Hear now my wish: I wish I knew the following things about the goblin tribe that took my earr: The tribe's name and numbers; the names, powers, and abilities of their leaders; and their current locations."
Uel (AC 15/19 w extened Mage Armor - HP 72/55 w false life) & Kage(AC 24 - HP 44/27 w extended false life) Monday March 15th, 2010 3:51:28 AM
ooc: thanks for the help cleaning up my character sheet, Buzz. My Charisma is now only at -1.
Uel suddenly seems less offensive. He doesn't even hurt the other's eyes when they look at him, though he'd still win no pageants.
"I would like more spell power. I wish I was more intelligent." Eyeing the rest of the group he adds, "No laughing at that!"
Nebin the Green AC 17, HP 83/83 Monday March 15th, 2010 11:29:14 AM
OOC: I'm not sure how the wish to find Valanthe would work. I think is a great thing Malgant would use a wish to find her. For the new DM's , Valanthe is my old pc that I retired to try something new. Which brings up the difficulty.
Co-DM Glenn. Monday March 15th, 2010 11:39:12 AM
OOC: Hi everyone, I'm Marty's co-dm Glenn. I've been the DM of Ust Delmah for a few years, and currently DMing the Gold Tap game. I think we'll be using the tag team DM method with lots of collaboration. I'm pretty sure Marty would be starting off as the primary DM.
It may take a little while for Marty and myself to get oriented to the BlackBird group, but we will try our best!
Vauhwyt (HP90+18 AC28) and Mookie (HP45+18 AC19) Monday March 15th, 2010 11:44:52 AM
OOC: Welcome and take your time!
Appolo Ac 31 Hp 88/88 Boots of Speed Haste Monday March 15th, 2010 5:21:16 PM
Appolo smiles at the others as they make thier wishes"Becareful what you wish for.You just might get it.I myself am pretty happy with the ay things are.Although I could use my physical capabilities enhaned.More speed strength,endurance."
Light Fortification, AC 26, 92/92 hp Malgant Monday March 15th, 2010 5:29:45 PM
OOC Welcome guys. Take your time getting adjusted. I apparently dropped a no-no bomb with my wish and the player that used to play Val is making up his mind how to react. Give him a little time before you rule on the wishes please. I put him in a bind and want to be sure he gets time to think it through. Thanks Dave/Malgant IC Malgant looks at Appolo and says" You should wish for something that will buff you them. Maybe a bag of potions or something" It is unclear whether or not the Minotaur is joking.
Healing touch/DM Buzz Monday March 15th, 2010 8:22:14 PM
Before wishes are even spoke of, Vauhwyt swears to protect the Fairy Lady from those that would dare harm her, to get to the device. Ringalingling smiles at the liontaur and waves her hands as grass begins to grow from beneath you all. She waves her left arm in a semi circle, above her head and a mountain scene springs up before the party of heros. With a wave of her right arm, a forest stream begins to meander by, as a doe with her faun prance over the water, away from the group and out of sight. High above there is a cloudy sky and a cool gust of wind gently tickles the small hairs on the body, while behind the immortal fey a pastoral glade rolls on, in what seems an endless dance of grass, lazily swaying in the breeze. She walks gently over to Vauhwyt and she grows in size, easily taller than Malgant by a head and a shoulder. "My dear child, nothing short of The Dread himself or the old Guardians would be able to thwart the will of Ebyeron, but the thought is much appreciated." She reaches down to touch the Grim Avenger, and brushes her hair more to the side where it is out of her face, "In fact, I seriously doubt that there will be many, if any mortals, that will be able to find this island again, please allow me to show to you, what you have brought back to the Wold." With a small gesture, you see a window appear before you all, set up against the backdrop of the mountain. It is the small archipelago that you all came to, when you first found the location of the island. It is completely covered in the greenery that inhabit all the islands. The animals that were within are now roaming around, living the life that all life forms are destined to, until Gargul claims their soul. The natives seem to have left the area as well, likely scared off by the total covering of plant growth on a once barren piece of rock.
The time has come for her to bless you all and everyone has something to say, if not directly, in regard to the wish. Uel is torn between being a people person or more powerful. Vorelle seems to want something more on an emotional level, however, along with Whysper they will settle for more agility. Aztyr could stand to be more healthy and Nebin wishes he could speak to all intelligent creatures.Vauhwyt wants revenge and Malgant wants reconciliation with a lost love. Of course, Appolo is not at all clear on what one wish he desires. She giggles as one by one, everyone has said their peace, grimacing a few times at the possible mistake the mortal made with their wording, but she holds up her right hand, a warm gesture, "Normally, I would delight in the antics of mortals as their mind scurries for the best possible thing for them and then, to have their selfish wish turn bitter in their mouth, but not on this occasion, no, you all deserve more then mere amusement, so, when next the sun rises, each of you will have your TRUE desires fulfilled."
"Now, I can see some of you are wounded, both physically and emotionally, if for some reason you wish to hang on to your pains, I will not take it away from you." With that, she places her hands on each of you and you feel a warm power flow from her palms. Those that feel cowardly would now feel courageous. Those with scars on their body, they could feel the tension from that tight tissue relax and any sensitivity is now faded along with the deformations. If you have a broken tooth or horn, it is possibly repaired. Cavities are gone, etc...
Without realizing it, you are all back in the white room and many different pictures begin to appear through out the large space. In some scenes, like that of Plateau City, the sun is high in the air. Another scene, Acid City, is bustling once again while it is mid morning. Minotaur and Liontaur islands are viewing the sunrise over the horizon already. Everywhere, any of you have ever been, including Dirt City, is blanketed upon the wall, even the interior of the mountain where you found the device.
"Choose your destination and fare thee well my fairy friends. May Eberyon forever smile upon you."
She patiently waits for your next actions.
Co-DM Marty Monday March 15th, 2010 8:36:23 PM
Ok; Im your Co-DM, not ADM.. Oops. Me and Glenn are still colaborating; along with Buzz and Jerry of course... Im ready to take over when ever Buzz, Glenn and Jerry are ready to let me.
Whysper (AC 23 - HP 48+20/48) Monday March 15th, 2010 11:26:37 PM Welcome guys!
Now back in the white room, Whysper ponders what has just occured. The warmth that spread over her body felt oddly calming, and she had felt the skin on her back tense, and then relax like it hasn't before.
Taking off a glove, she reaches her hand behind her, under the back of her shirt. To her surprise, she feels skin. Smooth, flawless, unscarred skin. She turns away from the group to hide the tears forming in her eyes, but continues touching her back.
The physical scars of her childhood have been erased. Whilst it may still take some time for the emotional scars to heal, she feels a weight has been lifted. She takes a moment to compose herself, and then turns back to face the group.
Vorelle Tuesday March 16th, 2010 2:04:45 AM
Vorelle feels her hurts ease, and smiles in relief. She smiles more to see the verdant, natural landscape springing up due to the artifact's influence. She longs to walk in green places again. Well, green places that aren't actively trying to kill her.
She watches the flickering pictures with a slight frown. "I have to g-go back to the n-natives," she says. "I left Ch-Champ with them."
Appolo Ac 31 Hp 88/88 Boots of Speed Haste Tuesday March 16th, 2010 12:27:56 PM
Appolo feels better and after further consideration says"Well I think I'm fine the way I am.I would like Champ our dog returned to us.Yes that is fine."He smiles at Vorelle."Don't worry we'll get Champ back.After all he's one of us."
Turning back to the others"So were shall we go.Back to minotuar island,blackbird lake.Platue City.Were."
Vauhwyt (HP90+18 AC28) and Mookie (HP45+18 AC19) Tuesday March 16th, 2010 1:07:25 PM
Is it possible to be an unscarred adventurer? Many blows are taken in battle, and some of them scar, even with magical healing. Vauhwyt is no exception, and she welcomes the soothing flow of healing energy.
But then it reaches her horrible ear. For a moment she resists the healing, hanging on to the reminder of her revenge. But then she relents, remembering her Lady's teachings. Nurture revenge in the mind, not in the heart or in the body. She lets the healing power flow over her, even healing her ruined-no-more ear.
For now all she can do is stand still, dumbfounded. How amazing!
Aztyr AC 21 (AC 12/20 w Mage Armor+Shield - HP 98/98) & Jynx (AC 20 - HP 49/49) Tuesday March 16th, 2010 1:31:26 PM "I think we should return to Cloud Prince Manor if possible. We may not be under contract, but I think that's important, but we should probably travel to the Minotaur area first. I do believe some of our belongings, or did all of it get carried with us, I can't keep it straight."

Malgant's Spells Status (19 hours)
Light Fortification, AC 26, 92/92 hp Malgant Tuesday March 16th, 2010 5:10:11 PM "Cloudprance Manor is warded against teleportation and the items we need to divide are on Minotaur Isle. What I propose is that most of us go to the Temple of Imod on Minotaur Isle and retrieve the gear we left behind. Aztyr if you would go with Vorelle and bring her and Champ back to the temple I think we could all then go to the catacombs before sunrise. We can transact whatever business we need to there and at dawn go whee our wishes take us. I can try to contact Bardamion once we reach the temple. Then maybe the Cloudprance family will be able to meet us there." Turning to Ringalingling Malgant asks a boon. " Would you allow Both Aztyr and Uel to study the outside of the mountain we are now inside of, so that they may return here if needed by teleportation? Those that employed us to come here may wish to visit and having us able to come here at a moments notice in case of trouble could not hurt either."

Where is here?/DM Buzz Tuesday March 16th, 2010 7:48:10 PM
As the group mentions what each feels is appropriate, Ringalingling continues to smile. No one noticed when she returned to her two foot tall form.
When Malgant asks if they can return, she shakes her head no. "It is likely best, you, like everyone else not have access to this area. It isn't fair to the barbaric natives who can only defend themselves due to numbers. If people were to find this archipelago again, it could destroy the entire habitat as well as compromise the artifact. No, it is time you all said good bye, and so do I to you.
Without a flourish or even the slightest gesture, the next thing you are all aware of, is that where ever you wanted to go, that is where you are, safely, and without incident.
If Aztyr wants to go to Gnym with Vorelle, that happens, as well as everyone else going to the Temple to Imod. If Nebin really wants to exit the game, this is a perfect opportunity to do so and he can go back home, with that secret and not at all unnecessary knowledge, of what he saw high above Izen.
Uel (AC 15/19 w extened Mage Armor - HP 72/55 w false life) & Kage(AC 24 - HP 44/27 w extended false life) Tuesday March 16th, 2010 10:33:12 PM "The way this place distorts time, our original trail has likely gone cold. What say you, Whysper? Shall we go to the Temple?"
Whysper (AC 23 - HP 48+20/48) Tuesday March 16th, 2010 11:39:24 PM
Whysper turns to Uel and nods, a lump still in her throat from the joy and relief of having her scars healed. She is wary of speaking to Uel during this emotional time for her; he'd surely find some way to put his foot in it.
Uel (AC 15/19 w extened Mage Armor - HP 72/55 w false life) & Kage(AC 24 - HP 44/27 w extended false life) Wednesday March 17th, 2010 2:59:57 AM
Uel offers an understanding smile and a gentle pat on the shoulder, leaving Whysper to sort out her emotions. He knows how to keep his mouth shut at least. (Thanks again for correcting my Cha, Buzz!)
Vauhwyt (HP90+18 AC28) and Mookie (HP45+18 AC19) Wednesday March 17th, 2010 8:42:56 AM
Vauhwyt bows low to the fey lady, and says, "Thank you. I hope we meet again. If you ever have need of mortal adventurers, call on us."
She says to Vorelle and Aztyr, "It makes me nervous to have you both part from us, but we need Champ. Please do teleport right back to us at the Temple of Imod. You have to be fast so that we can all be together when the wish takes us a-looking for Val!"
She says to Nebin, if he has given any indication of thinking of retiring, "You're a good fellow, but unlucky, maybe, to have fallen in with us. Fare thee well, and may you never have need of my Lady nor my Lord."
She says to Mal, "Your wish is noble, more noble than mine, though I will not take mine back. However, I am glad you made it."
She says to Whysper, gently, "I think we have something in common, you and I. May we get to know each other betterr, and maybe we can even be a support to each otherr." Her accent reveals a depth of feeling the liontaur cannot entirely conceal, Grim Avenger though she may be.
Vauhwyt feels something nagging at her. She is missing something. Then she rushes back to Vorelle. "Hey! You didn't make a wish! Don't miss your chance!"
Finally, she is ready to go to the Temple of Imod, there to wait for Vorelle and Aztyr, and then to wait for morning, when wishes will come true. She suggests to Mal, "Who knows where your wish for Val will take us. Maybe we should write a letter to the Prancy-cloud Dragons so they will know what happened."

Aztyr looks to the others,"Well, if all goes ok, Vorelle and I'll be only a few minutes behind you in our arrival at the temple. Shouldn't take very long to collect Champ, say thanks to the 'Taurs there and continue on to the Temple. Umm, Vauhwyt, what about the meat for the ships captian?" As she finishes mentioning the barrels, She thinks of another thing..... "Whysper,Uel and Nebin should come with me, Leaving the rest for Malgant, and Uel, you can study the town while we gather Vorelle's friend. That way if we need to return for some reason, two of us know the location."
1st cast of Teleport succeeds (barely) 2nd Teleport cast after getting champ, Vorelle can carry champ for the trip. Group part A reaches the temple a few minutes after having left the freshly regrown island.

If you decide to act on what you will learn then do not hesitate to ask for help. I would be offended if you didn't ask. Time doesn't pass in the catacombs does it? We COULD go there from the Temple once we gather the gear and prepare for our trip to Val's destination. She said the town was beset by undead and she was needed to cleanse it. She later said she was very busy so I would think we might prepare for the undead. I will be preparing for them anyway, since they are the chief soldiers of the Dread. In any case I will pray when we reach the Temple and send Bardamion a message as to the results of our mission. " " Aztyr, I am not transporting anyone, Ringalingling's portals here are."

Where is here?/DM Buzz Wednesday March 17th, 2010 6:10:15 PM DM Buzz was obviously not clear on his last post, so he will attempt to try again. :)
Without a flourish or even the slightest gesture, the next thing you are all aware of, is that where ever you wanted to go, that is where you are, safely, and without incident.
Some part of this encounter with the mighty fey had to be "flighty" and unpredictable, it just happened to be at the end.
Now, there is no time to leave notes or make suggestions or say goodbye. This is where your characters describe where you want them to be. If it is on the beach at the village of Gnym, then please describe what you see. If you are in the sand pit in the Temple to Imod, please describe your entry. Keep in mind the various times of days at certain places and the activities that might be going on. Thank you. :)

Malgant, now whole of body, his shattered horn completely regrown lands in the sand pit in the Temple of Imod with a grunt. His armor and weapons lie scattered about him and he is not surprised to see the main assembly of the young initiates gawking at his arrival in the middle of their morning prayers. Thinking fast, the Protector moves to the edge of the sand pit, taking any initiates he feels might be in the landing zone of his companions with him. His gore streaked hide and rather surprised countenance making it clear to all assembled that he was not exactly ready to leave where he had been and this is all quite a surprise to him. With a calm his face does not show he states simply in Minotaur " There may be more coming after me. it might be wise to allow them room for landing. Not all races are as graceful as us Minotaurs."

Appolo Wednesday March 17th, 2010 8:34:53 PM
Appolo lands next to Malgant witha wicked smiles on his face"Yes the mighty Malgant and his traveling circus are back.After a whirlwind tour of the universe.No applause necessary."He says as makes his way out of the pit.Fully armed and wearing all his gear Appolois ready to move on to the next adventure.

OOC: countermanding prior post.
IC: Aztyr lands at the Minotaur village, and expects to see Vorelle arive within moments. She travels with her to the town and awaits Champ to come bounding to greet her friend. After saying thanks and so long to the minotaurs, she will then teleport both of them ,as well as herself to the Temple where they had gone to, for thier trip to visit Gargul. (rolled a 94)

Hello all I am writing this becuase for awhile now my e-mail has not worked properly.I can recieve but not send.
I would like to thank Buzz for doinga truly wonderful jobInenjoyed it. Also I would like to welcome our two newest members and our new GM"S. I hope you enjoy this game as much as I have.
Here,s a little history on Valanthe and Appolo.Some of you may already know this,some may not. Appolo and Valanthe were once lovers.He's the one who found on the beach and pulled her out of the surf up into the shade.That all changed when Eberyon reappeared and Valanthe chose him over Appolo.Now Appolo has an everlasting hatred for Eberyon.So that is why Appolo made a vague general wish.For his real wish is to destroy Eberyon.

ooc: The town does sound like the best option. As I'm relatively new to the Wold there's a lot of exploration I need to do, and I might be able to pick up some contacts. It would be good to learn how towns function in the Wold.
Vorelle Wednesday March 17th, 2010 11:09:11 PM
Vorelle gladly goes with Aztyr, anxious to be re-united with Champ once again. She hastily thanks the villagers for taking such good care of her friend, and is soon ready to depart again.
Vorelle's wish is to speak normally, with her stutter completely gone.
DM Buzz: That would have been achieved without a wish. "Those that are cowardly are now courageous", if that is your desire, so take the dexterity with the healing if you like.
Whysper (AC 23 - HP 48+20/48) Thursday March 18th, 2010 5:40:17 AM
Whysper lands in the sand, her knees bent as her legs absorb the impact of the fall. She sees that Malgant and Apollo have already arrived. She looks around, wondering if Uel will arrive soon.
Vauhwyt (HP90+18 AC28) and Mookie (HP45+18 AC19) Thursday March 18th, 2010 8:37:46 AM
Before she goes, Vauhwyt thinks about that kraken meat, and shrugs. "Don;t see how we can retrieve those barrels of meat," she says. "oh well."
Vauhwyt is glad to be back at the Temple of Imod. If any young minotaur turks want to wrestle, she'll join in.
Uel (AC 15/19 w extened Mage Armor - HP 72/55 w false life) & Kage(AC 24 - HP 44/27 w extended false life) Thursday March 18th, 2010 10:07:23 AM
Uel appears above the sand in the Temple of Imod, not quite touching the ground. He blinks at the sudden change of scenery and drifts forward several feet before his fly spell expires, making for a graceful and elegant entry. (ooc: my charisma may suck, but I'm still a pretty nimble elf.)
"Ah! Hello, Mal, Vauhwyt, Whysper! You know, I've never been to this temple before. Can either of you show us around?"
Nebin the Green Thursday March 18th, 2010 1:55:56 PM
Nebin finds himself back home and the weight of the Wold's problems no longer seem like a burden. His home was simple yet he felt a sort of creative pride when he looked upon it. Nebin resided inside a great oak, the same tree his living staff was made of. Nebin didn't carve a place to live. Such a thing to a druid would be barbaric. A crime of the utmost severity. Nebin didn't use magic. Not really anyway. He simply asked the tree to grow in a certain way. Sculpting the living wood so he would have a home. Nebin took a deep breath and let it out slowly. His toes wiggled in the thick grass that served as his carpet. He had several windows higher up in the tree, fitted with glass, to let in the sunlight. Nebin walked over and rested his staff in the familiar crook next to the front door. Carefully he removed the shoulder strap of his traveling bag and placed it on a hook. Nebin headed into his small kitchen, looking for the herbs he kept for tea. A nice pot would help ease the burdens from his mind. As glad as he was to be home, Nebin was far from happy. His eyes had been opened to the stuff of legends. To what heroes actually did to create the stories told in taverns. It was not something he was prepared for. Oh he thought he was. So sure of himself but when the pressure was on. When the time came to step forward and do something that nobody else could do. Nebin stayed in the back. He didn't even try. As if to put an exclamation on everything when they were sent to where they wanted to go, Nebin was back home. In his heart he didn't want to be with the others. He didn't have what it took to stare the dark things in the eye. Nebin would always look after the trees. To make sure they were tended. That they were taken care of. It was his purpose. Still he would always know that he failed. Nebin wasn't a smart halfling, but he wasn't stupid either. Nebin knew that once your eyes were opened things never quite looked the same. That wide eyed wonder at the majesty of the wold and the desire to see it all wouldn't be there anymore. It would remind him too much of why he was back home. Perhaps it was time to set down his staff and join the trees. To take their shape and let himself go until he forgot he was anything but a tree.
Light Fortification, AC 26, 92/92 hp Malgant Thursday March 18th, 2010 4:26:17 PM
Malgant had expected Uel to go to Gnym with Vorelle and Aztyr. HIs appearance in the Temple was a surprise. No shortage of those today he thought. It could also present a problem. Uel was a Drow. Malgant had come to know him in the short time they had been together and knew he was good of heart, but a temple full of Minotaurs interrupted at payer was likely to be a different matter. Malgant gathered his wits quickly and without missing a beat began introducing each of his companions to the assembled Initiates and Elders as they materialized. He did all of this in Minotaur, not common, so that all of them understood. He also prepared to step in front of any that acted before they listened and rushed the Drow. Malgant was unarmored yet he felt equal to the task of besting any Initiate bold enough or brave enough to rush to the Temple's defense.(prepare interpose on Uel in case anything 'bad' happens) Once all of his friends had arrived Malgant excuses himself and his friends from the Gathering and leads them outside where Aztyr and Vorelle should be appearing soon.
