Matthew S. Co-DM - Rose Quest Day 21- Docks (8:00 pm) (Co-DM Matt) Monday October 23rd, 2017 8:36:07 PM Rolth is feeling better and ready to help. He agrees with Kiwina in regards to the fate of the liontaur and is open to most anything regarding the centaur. He then reports to the captain and asks about any trouble that could be brewing. Gothruk says, “Riding on this boat never changes, I wonder if it is Magic that causes illness, otherwise we may have started to develop a resistance to it. Having used this boat thrice now.” Tsak has a full belly, puts his armor back on and spies the dark clouds on the horizon and asks the captain, “Is that storm something we should worry about Cap'n, or will we make landfall before it gets us?” Finnian begins to get his sea legs but notices the attitude of the crew. "I do hope that it is of natural causes, I would love to not have to go through that sickness again," he says discussing the matter with Gothruk. Sable feeling better himself comments on the storm and picks up the uneasy from the tauric sailors. He tries to pick up any knowledge from the storm and does manage to get a sense that it’s a nasty one but it’s moving very slowly. He can’t wait to get back to Liontaur Isle. Falco talks to Elyas about their collective spells and says, "Amazing isn't it. To get to similar end points we learned different methods. It will be good to learn form each other when we have time and the supplies." Later, he says to the captain, "Captain, I am still marveled by your ship and glad you had the room to rescue what was left of the other group. They did attack us but if you would like payment for your passage we will do what we can. One question though, your crew seems on edge and I feel it may be more then just some rain clouds, should we be concerned or can we help?" ---- The captain takes time to answer your questions about the storm. Amazingly, he dismisses the concerns of his crew with a wave of his hand. “Ay, they have been aboard too long. They needs a drink and a night out.” “Now, the storm we can handle this. The Herald is well equip for the troubles of the sea. Plus, we have a little help then no other ships have.” He winks at the nearest water elemental. “This one, this here,” he says pointing. “I call him Moxy, made him the leader. Now they are not the best communicators. Basically, they just move the ship and get real antsy when the ship ain’t going anywhere. Constantly, moving we are.” … “You could assist me tightening down everything. If we do run into that nasty bit of storm we could increase our luck by not losing our supplies.” He points you to several large wooden crates. Each stack having different commodities. ---- No one seems to have any more issues with nauseum the rest of the trip. It’s fairly uneventful, except for the storm that seems to just sit motionless on the horizon. The captain finally admits to it being a bit odd on the final night but is quickly distracted by the act of docking near the Merry Mermaid. After several hours the crew of the Herald lower the gangplank on Liontaur Isle. Even at night, you can feel the excitement in Chessford. The captain leaves you with some final reminders that the taurnament will end on the 30th day. That gives you 8 days to run around, visit and collect things from the Catacombs. (Reminder: Feel free to sell anything you have gathered that you’re not using in the Catacombs. A lot of times, a chosen member of the team can do this. You can then spread the wealth. We can also talk about your wealth and where is should be via email. I could use a summary, that way I can add where needed.)
(End Scene: 500 XP each for completing with a Rose)

During the remainder of the trip, Rolth with a flourish presented the liontaur lass with a gift, "A magical token of my esteem, and thanks for your fair dealings, generosity, and honorable behavior placing the Necklace of Healthy Skin around her neck if she so allows. He also added a coral tattoo to his markings of our journey, and will offer Elyas a Compass Rose tattoo, as the mark of the Eight Petal Rose. "See, we all have them! Finally, he made use of his Comb of Healthy Hair, so his mane will be truly splendid for our arrival.
Speaking of arrival, he waves the Petals over before we disembark. "Now, we know some of the other competitors are none too scrupulous. So let us be on our guard as we make our way through the town. We may have time to make some stops along the way, if we don't see any other competitors disembarking or racing into town right now, but we should make good speed. And let us hold our tongues and not brag about our success til the victory is gained. Agreed?
With that, he takes good look around for ships arriving bearing other competitors, or any such racing up the streets to the site of the Ceremony. (Perception = 28)
Kiwina (Steve M) (28/28 HP | AC:14; Touch:11; Flat:12; CMD:16) | Status: None d20+4=24 ; Monday October 23rd, 2017 10:51:38 PM
During the remainder of the trip, Kiwina tries to figure out the character of the centaur they rescued. (Sense motive = 24) If he seems basically decent, Kiwina won't worry much about what to do with him, but if he really is untrustworthy then Kiwina will try to see he's punished.
"Shall we offer to escort Elarorn as well?" Kiwina asks in the huddle before disembarking, thinking she could not claim to have outraced the Petals unless she has all three. "And do you want to take that centaur to the authorities, or let him go his way?"
Sable (Don) (15/15 HP | AC: 15/17; Touch: 11; Flat: 13/15; CMD: 18) | Status: Stern d20+6=17 ; Tuesday October 24th, 2017 3:25:26 AM
Sable is eager to complete our part of the competition, then be around for the final event in 8 days. He will make ready to get to the finish line, keeping an eye out for danger (Perception 17)
Tsak Rezar (Damien) AC15 (T13/F12) 19/19 HP| Falchion +4 2D4+3|Status: None Tuesday October 24th, 2017 5:52:34 AM
Tsak, realising that he can't match the sheer size and brute strength of the taurs in melee decides that he might start practicing his archery skills and look for a long bow. This will give him the option to choose range or melee as required by the team. He makes a mental note to talk to Finnian about bows once all this kerfuffle with the taurnament settles down. He is ambivalent about what happens with the taurs they 'met' recently, not wanting to get distracted at this last stage of the competition, but is happy to support Kiwina's suggestion of assisting Elarorn. Right, lets get these pretties handed in, discreetly, and then find a pub!

When Kiwina gathers the group he chimes in.
"We certinally should offer to escort Elarorn, she has been though enough I would hate to see something happen to her. As far as the other one I think reporting him to the Taurnamnet organizers would be the better action. I am sure we were beyond the governance of the locals but I am sure that was a breech of the rules."
Falco is anxious to sell off what they will and divide up the spoils. He has mentioned several times needing to buy materials for scrolls and copying spells.
Elyas (Ben A.) (21/21 HP | AC: 13; Touch:13; Flat: 10; CMD:15) | Light Crossbow +4( 1D8, 19-20) | Status:N Tuesday October 24th, 2017 8:57:11 AM
Elyas follows the others, letting them handle the logistics of what happens next. Especially since he was not present for the start of the tournament, he doesn't have much input on when to hand in the rose or what to do while they wait.
He is eager to find a spot to rest for a while once they get things squared away, and is planning on getting some scrolls prepared.
"Thank you all again for rescuing me from that island. You could have easily left me there, and you certainly didn't have to let me join your troop. I want you all to know how much I appreciate this, and I hope you will allow me to continue to join you on your next adventure!"
Elyas is also still quite upset at the centaurs, but sees that the group has them well in hand, and so is happy to let that misadventure come to a close without venting his frustration any more than he already has.
{OOC: I went ahead and leveled up, my character sheet is now updated, along with my header. Hopefully that wasn't jumping the gun at all.}

Finnian spends the trip pondering what he has done and seen. The power of the gardens and the dryads impressed him beyond anything he had thought before. His connection to the land was trivial compared to theirs, and he meant to learn as much as he could about thier ways in the days and years to come. First things firat however he must find someone to teach him. Upon arriving at the island Finnian will hand over the pipes to Falco. "I don't know what I can do with these give them to someone else in the party, or sell them," he says to the halfling. To the rest he says "this has been an amazing trip so far and I mean to see it to completion, but first I must seek out someone to teach me the magics of the Wold. I will return soon, and don't worry he looks to Sable I haven't forgot about that bow we must make." With a smile Finnian heads off to find someone who can teach him the ways of the druids.
[ooc I really hope this doesn't take to long, it's more for flavor than anything else. I am taking a level of Druid and rather than just level]

The liontaur lass smiles wildly. Her eyes get saucer-sized and she suddenly gets excited. She thanks Rolth profusely and steps from the Herald into the arms of an older liontaur. She then tells the older liontaur everything that happens and points ar Rolth. Perception vs DC: 12 Highlight to display spoiler: { “Daddy..daddy… that liontaur on the ship is going to marry me. Look at it’s a gift. It has to be a sign from the Goddess. This way you don’t have to find someone for me to marry.”} Rolth then offers a tattoo to Elyas and uses the Comb of Healthy Hair. Rolth then waves the Petals over and says, "Now, we know some of the other competitors are none too scrupulous. So let us be on our guard as we make our way through the town. We may have time to make some stops along the way, if we don't see any other competitors disembarking or racing into town right now, but we should make good speed. And let us hold our tongues and not brag about our success til the victory is gained. Agreed?”
Kiwina tries to figure out the character of the centaur they rescued and finds they are pretty subdued. Seems like they were acting out of desperation. "Shall we offer to escort Elarorn as well?" Kiwina asks in the huddle before disembarking, thinking she could not claim to have outraced the Petals unless she has all three. "And do you want to take that centaur to the authorities, or let him go his way?"
Sable keeps an eye out for danger but there is nothing near at the moment. Tsak decided to start practicing his archery skills and is looking for a long bow. He makes a note to talk to Finnian. He adds, “Right, lets get these pretties handed in, discreetly, and then find a pub!” Falco says, "Captain you have my thanks not only for the trip but to opening my eyes to this interesting vessel," then adds, "We certinally should offer to escort Elarorn, she has been though enough I would hate to see something happen to her.

I will return soon, and don't worry he looks to Sable I haven't forgot about that bow we must make." (OOC: Are you talking about bow training taking too long?) ----- Outside of the hope that the liontaur has for a marriage, several of the taurnament staff steer you toward the center of Chessford Field. They return to the dock. Within the field is a drab tent, the stage and a group of taurnament participants. Perception vs DC: 12 Highlight to display spoiler: { The taurnament stage sits to the left, the giant roses fading in the growing darkness.} Perception vs DC: 15 Highlight to display spoiler: {To the right is the Marblehorn group. Their armor sits in a pile in the center of the group. } Perception vs DC: 20 Highlight to display spoiler: {You notice a small sign on the drab tent that says “Turn Roses in Here” There are several taurs milling around within the tent. }

Rolth surreptitiously overhears Elarorn's declaration to her father, and blushes a bit under his shining mane. (Perception = 26, success) Not quite sure what to make of this, he first turns to the matter at hand, which is proceeding to Chessford Field. He does agree with his companions that it would be prudent to offer a group escort to Elarorn, although he'll let someone else make the offer while he tries to sort out his unexpected situation. Does he recognize the father?
To Finnian, he says, "Stick with us for a bit, while we claim our prize, then we can help you find the druidic lore that you seek."
Upon arriving at the field, he takes a careful look around, and steers the party to the drab tent, avoiding Marblehorn's group on the right. As they get closer, he will look for indications whether they need to wait on the group already inside, or can proceed in, space allowing. "Time to see how we did!" (Perception = 29)

(Roll: perception = 22, 22)
Kiwina will happily offer, "Elarorn, would you care to go to Chessford Field with us? And, sir, your daughter has been quite brave the time we've known her."

(Perception spoilers in tent =25, Perception=8) Tsak follows Rolth's lead, trying not to look too much on edge, as that might tip others that the petals have something to be edgy about. Nonchalantly striding through the crowd, he focuses so much on appearing nonchalant that he completely fails to notice anything at all really and almost bumps into Rolth as he stops at the tent.
(OOC I assumed the first spoiler was for Rolth only. My second perception roll was to notice anything threatening as we walked thru the field to the tent, which I didn't, safe as houses!)

At the boat, Sable cannot help but to overhear the Tauric conversation and he smiles. (Perception 12)
At the field, Sable looks around (Perception 23) and says to his group, ”Looks like roses are being turned in at that drab tent over there...”
He begins heading off in that direction, keeping an eye out for danger.
Elyas (Ben A.) (21/21 HP | AC: 13; Touch:13; Flat: 10; CMD:15) | Light Crossbow +4( 1D8, 19-20) | Status:N d20+3=22 ; Wednesday October 25th, 2017 4:04:16 AM
Elyas follows the rest into the ceremony field, and sees the small sign. He notices that some of the group recognize the group to the right of the stage.
Who are those guys? Looks like someone might have beat us to the finish!

As they group stops Falco is surprised by the lack of fanfare at the 'turn in' tent. He is even more surprised to see other groups here already and that fact puts him a little on edge. He decides to keep a careful eye out while they are in the tent.

Once back woth the group Finnian follows with a great smile on his face. He finally feels like he has found a place in the Wold. Not to mention he is eager to turn in the roses. "Yes, it looks likenitnis over there." He points to tent that Rolth is already headed to.

Matthew S. Co-DM - Rose Quest Day 21- The Roses (8:30 pm) (Co-DM Matt) d20=16 ; Thursday October 26th, 2017 7:11:19 AM Kiwina offers, "Elarorn, would you care to go to Chessford Field with us? And, sir, your daughter has been quite brave the time we've known her." Rolth is not sure what to do about the situation her father confirms that he has already found a husband for her. Elarorn is not pleased at all but does not publically protest. He also speaks to the group, he thanks them and offers the 200 gp each for returning her. To Finnian, he says, "Stick with us for a bit, while we claim our prize, then we can help you find the druidic lore that you seek." Sable, Tsak and Finnian follow Rolth to the drab tent and looks for any threats but the field is completely peaceful. Elyas wonders about the team talking on the right as Falco is a bit disappointed by the lack of fanfare.
===== ===== ===== ===== ===== There is a lack of fanfare, but you are several days ahead of most of the others. As you head for the drab tent Alex Marblehorn looks in your direction then returns to a conversation with his team. Inside the tent is a long table and several taurs talking loudly about rumors they have heard… adventures with the rootlings, the large topiary and the roses. “I heard a minotaur took down the Topiary in one blow,” says one large centaur. “He had a magic guisarme. That’s what I heard…” Another, smaller liontaur grins, “I heard the Petals ran through the maze in the Shoals untouched. It’s absolutely amazing. I heard those small rootlings overwhelms two groups.” “Wait!!” Said another centaur as he noticed the group stepping into the tent. “Is that them? Is that the Petals? I heard they had three roses. No one has three roses.”
A liontaur with a large white sash steps forward and says to the group. “Hi gentle-creatures. Do you have roses to turn in and are you in need of medical attention. We have some healers.” He then points to the group of three. They immediately turn and head toward the other side of the tent. Several rows of cots sit empty. Perception vs DC: 10 Highlight to display spoiler: { The noise-level outside the tent increases as several creatures wait for you to exit. Anyone near the back end of the group notices that everyone that approaches has a blue sash across their chest and smile on their face.}

Falco, still near the back of the group decides to speak although he is guessing most wont even see him behind the bigger folks.
"Yes, were the Petals. I don't think we need medical attention." noticing another smiling group with blue sashes approaching. Which of you the official that we are to report to? We do have some things to turn in and report. The roses are with us as well as is a Loiontaur from anther team. Her team had some bad luck and tried some bad things but she is here to represent them and has acted honorably."
He does not mention the others of her team who fought the petals, leaving that to another.

Rolth reaches into his concealed pocket and brings forth our first rose, and suggests to our centaur and minotaur rosekeepers to do the same.

Gothruk pulls off his backpack and with care retrieves the rose from within. He'll move to stand next to Rolth offering the rose to be taken/examined.

Elyas is in the middle of the Petals and doesn't see anything aside from the white sashed greeter. (Perception 8)
He is still feeling a little untrusting, and is watching out for any sign that there is a trap or con going on here. (Sense motive 7).

(Roll: perception = 12)
Did the officials had sashes at the opening ceremonies? Not that anyone would be so bold as to try to thieve roses from the ceremonial field, or from Marblehorn's team.
Kiwina also carefully retrieves the rose from his pack. "Elarorn was hurt, and could probably use some help. She is the only one of her team to return."

I don't think we need medical attention." noticing another smiling group with blue sashes approaching. Which of you the official that we are to report to? We do have some things to turn in and report. The roses are with us as well as is a Loiontaur from anther team.

And with the blessing of Domi, each of the taur races on our team has returned with a Rose. Do you think it is a sign? And yes, our honorable new friend Elarorn has also returned to represent her own team as well."
Gothruk and Rolth reveal their Roses. Kiwina pulls out the last Rose. He wonders about the sashed persons and also states that Elarorn is hurt. Elyas[b] is a bit uncomfortable and searches for traps but it not able to see a thing within the group. [b]Tsak is happy to hang quietly and Sable waits for the last rose to be presented. Finnian blushes. ---- --- --- A dark-haired centaur, named Cloxo, stepped forward once the Roses were presented. He was dressed in a large, rose-covered cloak. He reached down and took a single Rose and made it disappear. Sleight of Hand vs DC: 13 Highlight to display spoiler: { If you beat this DC then you actually caught the liontaur pocketing the rose inside a pocket within the cloak. } The liontaur then announced once all the Roses are placed on the table, “Your return has been registered. The Roses will return on the final day of the Taurnament along with your reward.” Cloxo then added, “You are free to roam Chessford till the morning of the 30th. We will then officially announce the winner.”
Perception vs DC 10 Highlight to display spoiler: {“The Petals have offered up three Roses on the twenty-first day. They are not the first to return but they are the first to return three Roses,” said someone outside the tent. }
Elarorn actually stood outside, behind the Petals. She stood with her father and the two bound, injured centaurs. “Hey, we aren’t going to hurt anyone,” shouted one of the centaur. “Can you just let us go. I’m sorry for what happened? Plus, my friend is hurt.” He referenced the other centaur who still had a few large bruises and a wrap around one of his ankles. The speaking centaur wasn’t in perfect condition. “Elarorn? Can you talk to your friends?” The crowd began asking the centaur for information on the event but he stayed silent, not wanting to spread rumors of his despicable behavior. Elarorn felt around for the Rose, she had, and moved uncomfortably.

Tsak Rezar (Damien) AC15 (T13/F12) 19/19 HP| Falchion +4 2D4+3|Status: None d20+6=19 ; d20+6=10 ; Thursday October 26th, 2017 9:49:47 PM
(Perception vs Sleight of Hand=19, Perception vs spoiler = 10) Tsak notices the pocket inside Cloxo's cloak that the rose disappears into. Neat trick, but Tsak doesn't believe the centaur is stealing the rose but merely showing off for the crowd, so he does nothing. The 3 roses have been presented and we are free to roam for a few days. I'm roaming to an alehouse! Anyone care to join?
Rolth Niheow (BatMark) (20/20 HP | AC: 14; Touch: 11; Flat: 12; CMD: 18) | Glaive +4 1d10+4 x3 | Paws (2) +2 1d4+1 x2| Status: None d20+9=29 ; d20+7=23 ; Thursday October 26th, 2017 9:53:57 PM
Rolth looks at the Roses on the table to make sure that they are all the ones that we brought out of the gardens, what with Cloxo appearing to pocket one of ours. (Perception = 29) If one is missing, or one does not look right, he will exclaim,"Is that our Rose that you just pocketed, or are you just happy to see us, Mister Cloxo." With a grin that turns fierce, he points back over his shoulder--showing his wrist tattoo in the process--as he gets right up on Cloxo's face and says, "Did you see what happened to the last dishonorable taurs that tried to steal our hard won Taurnament roses? Give it back now or we will pluck you too." (Intimidate =23 or 24 if this guy is aligned against Domi)

Addendum: To be clear, the accusations and intimidation only occur if it looks like Cloxo took our Rose. If all three of ours are clearly remaining on the table and counted by the judges, then all is well...
Kiwina (Steve M) (28/28 HP | AC:14; Touch:11; Flat:12; CMD:16) | Status: None d20+8=14 ; d20+8=22 ; Thursday October 26th, 2017 10:56:17 PM
(Rolls: perception = 14; perception = 22)
After seeing that the Petals' roses are properly registered, Kiwina encourages Elarorn to submit the rose that he assumes she has. Hearing what the centaurs are saying outside, he tells the crowd, "We found the young tauress here in a wrecked ship, abandoned to a slow death by craven companions. . . if any survived. These centaurs looked after her while we explored one of the gardens." As if realizing the centaurs are bound, he adds with a shudder, "I'm sorry! In our haste to get here, we forgot you had to be restrained aboard the Herald. May brave captain Cecil prosper with that ship, but it's a ride I'll never forget!"
Sable (Don) (15/15 HP | AC: 15/17; Touch: 11; Flat: 13/15; CMD: 18) | Status: Stern d20+8=13 ; d20+6=20 ; d20+5=19 ; Friday October 27th, 2017 2:10:45 AM
Sable grips his sword as he thinks through what just happened, did he just see someone take one of the roses before our return was registered? Or after registration did someone make one of the Roses disappear (into his pocket - Perception 13 vs thievery). Either way, he asks for confirmation from the official, despite the murmur from the crowd (Perception 20).
“You have registered that we have returned with all three roses?”. After waiting for an answer, he asks.
”What is the purpose of the sleight of hand?”
Does this Cloxo appear to be a legitimate judge? (Insight - 19)
Finnian (Zeke) (HP:11/11; AC: 16; Touch: 13; Flat: 13; CMD: 17) Status: Hurtin' d20+9=19 ; d20+9=21 ; d8+1=2 ; Friday October 27th, 2017 7:32:28 AM
[Perception=19, 25] Finnian notices what the others have but is perplexed by Rolth's comment, "why would him having our rose in his pocket have anything to do with whether or not he is happy to see us? I still understand very little of these Taurs I travel with."
Outside the tent he sees Elarorn and the others. He approaches the still injured Centaur. " I am sorry about your injuries. If you wouldn't mind I have learned a few things about healing since returning" if no objections are made Finnian will aproch the centaur and lay his hands on him. Finnian immediately feels his connection to the Wold heighten and he draws from the power healing some of the centaurs wounds... It is a very small flow of energy, as this is his first time attempting anything like it.
CLW = 2
Falco Ambersier (Ryan M) AC 13 (T13/F11) 14/14 HP | 7/7 Acid Dart | Lt Crossbow +4 1d6 x2 | Status: None | SpellbookParty Loot Sheet d20+2=10 ; Friday October 27th, 2017 8:34:53 AM
Falco smiles as the roses are handed in and is even happier when it is declared they are the first back with three of the prizes.
Looks like I am going to owe that old woman what I promised early on.
Watching Finnian heal for the first time he smiles thinking how it may be useful in the future. As the tied up taur plead for freedom he is silent, waiting to see what the others to.
Gothruk Gore (Logan) AC 12 (T11/F10)12/12HP |Guisarme +3 2D6+4| Status: None d20=16 ; d20=9 ; d20+5=15 ; Friday October 27th, 2017 9:01:50 AM I didn't know you could heal with magic Finnian. Or was this your first time? If so I agree with you testing on the thieves first, I wouldn't want my organs healed into the wrong spots during an intense fight
Noticing Rolth's display towards the snatcher-of-roses he moves over and stands besides Rolth assisting his Intimidate. (1D20+5=15=Pass)
Elyas (Ben A.) (21/21 HP | AC: 13; Touch:13; Flat: 10; CMD:15) | Light Crossbow +4( 1D8, 19-20) | Status:N d20+3=20 ; Friday October 27th, 2017 10:14:14 AM
Elyas sees the Taur pocket the rose, and immediately tenses. (Perception 20).
He notes the sloppy execution of the trick, however, and thinks that perhaps it was just meant for theatrics and not as part of something sinister.
Having run plenty of cons in his past, Elyas knows there is little gained by making a flower dissapear right in front of the team that turned it in, and likely the taur thought it would be funny. He puts a hand on Rolth's shoulder.
easy my friend, i don't think he intended any slight
Matthew S. Co-DM - Rose Quest Day 21 --- 30 - The Roses (8:45 pm) (Co-DM Matt) Friday October 27th, 2017 4:02:35 PM Tsaknotices the pocket inside Cloxo's cloak that the rose disappears into. He doesn't believe the centaur is stealing the rose but merely showing off for the crowd, so he does nothing. I'm roaming to an alehouse! Anyone care to join? the half orc says, planning on some relaxation.
Rolth also sees. He knows their petals are still on the table and this was more to amuse the crowd. Not wanting to cause a commotion, the barbarian shows some better judgement and keeps it to himself. Kiwina encourages Elarorn to turn in her Roses and Cloxo does the same trick. The Rose disappears in an instant to the amazement of anyone near by. A few, you notice are visibly annoyed at such parlor tricks.
Kiwina speaks about the wrecked ship, which garners a lot of attention. A young liontaur, named Sai, mentions he had a dream about a shipwreck and its aftermath. Kiwina then apologizes to the bound centaur. Finnian is a bit confused by Rolth’s statement. Outside the tent he see’s Elarorn and the others. He apologizes to the centaur and lays hands on them and Falco watches, thinking. Gothruk says to Finnian, “I didn't know you could heal with magic Finnian. Or was this your first time? If so I agree with you testing on the thieves first, I wouldn't want my organs healed into the wrong spots during an intense fight.”
The centaur are grateful and express their thankfulness in spades. They tentatively approach Elarorn’s father, who had some sharp words for them. Elarorn’s father then asks the group if they will release the centaur into his custody? Sable grips his sword as he asks for confirmation. Elyas is a bit tense at first makes it known he doesn’t see any ill intent. The tall centaur smiles for a moment then realizes his error in judgement. “I’m so sorry about the confusion, young adventures. I’m a bit of a showoff with my magic tricks. Your Roses, well earned are safe with me. The judges, have all retired for the night and will be up and around in the morning. As far as the Roses, I must prepare them for the celebration. I am, by the Cloxo, the gamemaster… designer of the taurnament. Did you like the taurnament?” ----- Outside the tent is a huge crowd, congratulating all the players. Alex Marblehorn, seems to be quite the charismatic one, is speaking to a group of attractive liontaur.
(OOC: Feel free to roam around and explore. Post through the weekend, if you would like. Monday will be the day of the ceremony.)
Kiwina (Steve M) (28/28 HP | AC:14; Touch:11; Flat:12; CMD:16) | Status: None Friday October 27th, 2017 9:06:45 PM
To Elarorn's father, Kiwina says, "If you taking custody of these fellows is the custom here, I have no objection. I would like to ask that you allow us to include your daughter in our celebrations these next few days, so Rolth can say a proper goodbye."
"And Sai!""You, too, must join us. I would like to hear what the aumakua have told you about this shipwreck and its consequences."
Kiwina prepares to follow Tsak for a festive evening. But in the days before the closing ceremonies he would also like to obtain some new gear.
(OOC: Can we pick up items at book rates? Perhaps a little less for our brief celebrity?)
Tsak Rezar (Damien) AC15 (T13/F12) 19/19 HP| Falchion +4 2D4+3|Status: None Saturday October 28th, 2017 2:39:19 AM
Tsak addresses Cloxo Yes, the taurnament was a good test of our skills, our thinking and our teamwork. It shows that you put much effort into it's design. We have learned much and thank you for the experiences you helped create. He decides to stop there before he moves into diplomacy. He then makes sure that he congratulates Finnian on his new skill with magical healing and arranges to meet him in a few days, prior to the closing ceremony, at the Inn where it all started for the 8 Petaled Rose. Then, quickly checking that everyone is cool, he heads for that nice cold ale that he can already taste...
(OOC once we've worked out the sale of unwanted equipment and got a little more cash I'll be looking to buy Tsak a longbow and arrows.)
Gothruk Gore (Logan) AC 12 (T11/F10)12/12HP |Guisarme +3 2D6+4| Status: None Saturday October 28th, 2017 7:02:56 AM
Gothruk goes to follow Tsak to the tavern to get some ale but remembers sonething he has to do first...
He'll try to find a temple or pray area to Domi (that being the God he feels most comfortable praying to) and once there find a priest, explaining We were in a maze surrounded by plant creatures and some attacked. We fended them off but then the rest, maybe hundreds, started moving weirdly and making weird noises. I don't know much about Magic you understand? I want to know if they cursed us. Or put some sort of spell on us. While we were trying to leave the island our boats lost their oars, that was very bad luck. If it hadn't been for a companions quick thinking we may have ended up dashed on the rocks.

Rolth gives Cloxo a weak grin in return, as the sudden boost of adrenaline fades. "Hah, cleverrr one, good sirrr. But the Taurnament, now that was masterful. Thank you for this most excellent challenge."
Rolth approaches Elarorn's father awkwardly with a bow and some questions, "Sir, I am Rolth Niheow, of the Eight Petaled Rose adventuring company. My I be so bold as to ask your name? For, well, um, errr, um, your daughter generously rewarded us for her rescue with these magical pipes, but as it turns out, none of us is skilled in their use. As such, we have determined to sell them, in order to better outfit our group for further quests in service to Domi. Because I imagine that they might be of value to you and your family, I would like to offer you the right of first refusal for their purchase."
(OOC: Whatever his response, I assume I will still put the sale in the Catacombs for tracking purposes.)
If her father raises the idea of marriage, Rolth will try to politely demur for now, saying, "Such a union is not something that I would take lightly. I have seen your Elarorn's honor and mettle in action, and do not believe that I myself have yet proven myself worthy of such a lioness. And though I may have done her a favor in the rescue, I have also caused her distress in response to the attack on us by her companions. I think it wise to let time tell whether Domi has plans for us together. (Diplomacy = 21, or 22 if he is aligned with Domi)
(OOC: Speaking of the Catacombs, I will handle this first Catacombs sale of gear we have acquired so far, but would like someone else to step up for the future, to spread out the work of maintaining the group.)
Rolth will then join Tsak and company for the festive evening, trying and maybe halfway succeeding in being humble if we gain any notoriety for our success in the quest. In any event, he knows that we may have made some enemies, so he will not let himself get too carried away with the mead, and will encourage his comrades to do the same. (Perception = 15 to notice any unusual goings on)
In some of his remaining time, he will shop for some new armor, and sell his current leathers, while listening out for interesting rumors that might lead to new adventures. He will also seek out a shrine to Domi, to see if the priests can provide any insight into these Old Woldian tattoos that have mysteriously appeared on his wrists.
Sable (Don) (15/15 HP | AC: 15/17; Touch: 11; Flat: 13/15; CMD: 18) | Status: Stern d20+8=15 ; Sunday October 29th, 2017 8:39:48 PM
Sable is willing to spend a little coin celebrating, but saves his precious mead for his later meeting with the dryad back on Centaur Isle. He will scan the crowd for the wayward, scar faced lioness (his original bounty, from oh so long ago) (Perception 15)
Finnian (Zeke) (HP:11/11; AC: 16; Touch: 13; Flat: 13; CMD: 17) Status: Hurtin' Sunday October 29th, 2017 9:09:56 PM
Finnian spends his time refining his craft at bow making and asks around to see if anyone needs a new bow. For his companions he will do it free if they can bring him the materials. They should cost 1/3 that of a bow bought at a shop. He also tests out his new abilities. One that he is particularly found of creats those delicious berries with their healing properties he had earlier.
[ooc: Can I make money crafting?]

Cloxo
Once a couple of the others have had their say Falco approaches Cloxo.
"You designed quite the experience, it challenged us and helped bond us into a team. The manipulation of the forces of nature was quite impressing, I hope to one day have that sort of ability though I have move of an arcane leaning."
"I am sure someone of your stature has a great deal of knowledge. I was wondering if you could recommend a reputable vendor so I could purchase supplies for crafting scrolls."
[ooc: During out down time the only things that I really need to get done is purchasing materials for crafting scrolls. Catacombs for that?]
Dm shawn - Closing Ceremonies Monday October 30th, 2017 10:37:09 PM Kiwina replied to Elarorn’s father, "If you taking custody of these fellows is the custom here, I have no objection. I would like to ask that you allow us to include your daughter in our celebrations these next few days, so Rolth can say a proper goodbye." "And Sai!""You, too, must join us. I would like to hear what the aumakua have told you about this shipwreck and its consequences."
Rolth and Tsak address Cloxo, “Yes, the taurnament was a good test of our skills, our thinking and our teamwork. It shows that you put much effort into it's design. We have learned much and thank you for the experiences you helped create.” Rolth replies, "Hah, cleverrr one, good sirrr. But the Taurnament, now that was masterful. Thank you for this most excellent challenge." Rolth speaks to Elarorn’s father about the pipes. Her father politely declines to take the pipes and bits the group goodwill. Sable scans the crowd as Finnian crafts a bow. ---- Sai agrees to follow Kiwina and the petals but unfortunately Elarorn’s father objects and wants to keep her close. Cloxo, thanks Rolth and Tsak for the compliment on the taurnament and disappears from the tent.
Gothruk takes his leave and heads to the Temple of Domi. He speaks to a priest who after a few prayers assures him he is clear. As for the rest he would have to see them in person to check. But if Gothruk didn't have a curse, more then likely the rest are okay.
Sable wants to spend some coin and celebrate too.. but first scans the crowd for his bounty. The lioness must be smarter then that because she is nowhere to be seen.
Cloxo gives Falco the name of a reputable dealer in town. “ Angus Ashe.. he won't rob you blind, and mention my name for a discount.”
Finally the night of the 30th... the closing ceremony begins at Midnight.. its set off by a triumphant blast of fireworks lighting up the night sky. Booms sounding like cannons echo in the night. A huge bonfire is the centerpiece with women and men dancing around, swinging fire baskets around their necks. A great cauldron simmers over the huge bonfire. Finally Artemis comes into view and the music stops… “ Taurs…” he bellows “ this Taurnament was one for the ages. It was full of ups and downs and some of the most heroics i and many others have ever seen.
The closing ceremony is similar to the opening one in terms of pomp and entertainment, but since it is at night, include a bonfire, fire dancers, glowing lights, and illusionary fireworks. The master of ceremonies is again Artemis from the BlackWind clan. A great cauldron is simmering over the bonfire, from which Elixer of Domi is served (see below).
Questing groups are named and brought up for their rewards. Five groups have won a single rose, two have won two roses, and finally Artemis names the 8 Petaled Rose, bringing the party on stage. “ The winners… “he yells. “ Your champions…”
A few helpers come up on stage and hand a basket to each member. Inside are 1 Lesser and 1 Greater Anything Potion. The same helpers pour the contents of the cauldron into jars and bring it down to the group.
“ Elixir of Domi” Artemis adds. “ For the winners only.”
Highlight to display spoiler: {
Lesser Anything Potion: When imbibed, the drinker chooses any spell of level 1 and lower from the Pathfinder Core Cleric or Wizard spell list and receives that effect. CL1, only works for the PC who owns it (cannot be given or sold). (value for WBL: 250 gp)
Greater Anything Potion (unique fate item): As the lesser (above), but uses the owner’s character level as the caster level. (value for WBL: 250 gp +100 gp per character level)
Elixer of Domi (unique fate item): Must be imbibed within one minute of being served. Grants a +1 Inherent bonus to the drinker’s lowest ability score (roll randomly for ties). (value for WBL: not counted against WBL) }
The night is spent partying and celebrating the win.. rooms are given at the inn with food and drink on the house. One by one the celebrators turn in.. almost going to the sun comes up.
Too early the next morning .. a knock at each of your doors. One of the bar maids tells you a man named Gynm is downstairs and is very agitated.
Ooc: If something is off.. a name, a race location etc.. ill fix it. Still getting used to you guys. Sorry the post is later then usual. Tommorows will come earlier.

Tsak awakens to the knock and pokes his head out the door to talk to the bar maid. Thank you Elsie, is this Gynm known to you? Tsak will take some time (a few minutes) packing his sack so that no potions will break or spill, he had plans to hunt down a backpack and some materials for a bow today, but perhaps that will have to wait. He dresses in his armour and sword, grabs his belongings and makes his way downstairs to see what's cooking. It seems he's the first to arrive. I don't suppose anyone here has heard of coffee beans? He'll try to calm Gynm down a little by offering him breakfast until all the petals are present to find out what has him agitated.

Sable quickly drinks down the Potion of Domi once served, and as he does so he slowly rises into the air. Light shoots from his hands and hooves, and he begins to glow. After he spins around three times, he floats back down == fully transformed! His horns a bit sharper, clothes less disheveled, and a more confident look (+1 Charisma).
He says, “Now I am ready to party!”
Then to Finnian, ”I am interested in that bow, once we get the right material from Centaur Isle...”

(OOC: Shawn, what a glorious first post!)
Rolth reverently drinks the Elixir, and visibly toughens up, a brief flicker of extra rage passing behind his flashing eyes as he smiles a fierce smile. "By Domi, now that's refreshing!" he exclaims before going on to join the festivities, where he tries to balance pride and humility as he interacts with the other questers and well-wishers.
Come the knock on the door in the morning, he quickly gears up, and heads down to meet Gynm. He wonders to himself, "Could this be Gnym of Gnym, poet laureate of Minotaur Isle? Or is this some clever trap? He moves cautiously to the meeting, wary of an ambush. (Perception = 18)

{ooc: agreed, great first post}
If there was time for one more question to Cloxo he asks a final question. "I was thinking about the different experience levels of the groups. Did your tests somehow change based on who was taking the test? If not I am even more impressed we finished."
--------
When the rewards are handed out Falco is reminded that he has promised a potion to grandmother Esoway who offered him clues for the journey in return for an Anything Potion. He smiles realizing again that he is on the winning team I have just begun to prove my worth. You were wrong dad.
"This elixer, best drink it fast or it will lose it's potency." {Roll 1 so Con instead of Wisdom for the bonus.}
Throughout the evening Falco looks for the grandmother Esoway to fulfill his end of the bargain as best he can. He stays out and joins in the party for a while but as he is not a drinker, needs to keep his mind sharp, he retires relatively early with an over full belly.
{ooc: So the deal that Falco made was Grandmothers Esoway's wisdom for an Anything Potions but I now see that they cannot be traded or given away. Not sure how to handle that.} -----------------
Blurry eyed Falco is roused by the knock on the door. Given how little sleep he had he figures it is a good thing he ended the evening early so he had time to prepare his spells in case they were needed. He will head downstairs once dressed to see what is going on and grab a snack.
Kiwina (Steve M) (28/28 HP | AC:14; Touch:11; Flat:12; CMD:16) | Status: None Tuesday October 31st, 2017 8:55:27 AM
Kiwina drinks the potion of Domi that is served. While the others tell him that he looks better, he does not feel different as he thanks the helper who served him. He enjoys the ceremony and the following celebrations.
The next morning, Kiwina is wondering how best to return to Minotaur Isle and whether they shouldn't first go to Centaur Isle for Sable's business when the knock comes. "Gynm? Who's Gynm?" With no answer forthcoming, he wanders down to see for himself.
Finnian (Zeke) (HP:11/11; AC: 16; Touch: 13; Flat: 13; CMD: 17) Status: Hurtin' d2=2 ; Tuesday October 31st, 2017 11:41:31 AM
Finnian drinks the potion and doesn't feel much different. It did warm his belky a bit and brought a smile to his face but he didn't notice much of a change. During the celebrations he spent time laughing and talking to his companions. Drinking too much mead he was one of the last to go to sleep and struggled to find his room. When he did he dreamt of the forest, but not one he ever remembered visiting.
Upon awakening his head was throbbing and the knock at the door seemed louder than it needed to be. "That was very unlike me to drink that much, but I do think that I quite enjoyed it. Even if I don't recall very much," he thought to himself as he gathered his belongings. When he arrived in the common room he asked after an herbal concoction that could take away headaches. He was also pleasantly suprised at how happy he was to see his companions again. " maybe I am getting more comfortable around them atleast"
[was looking for CON, rolled a 2 looks like a +1 to CHA]
"Yes Sable, I can't wait to return and find some materials to create some truly masterful bows"

Elyas joined his companions during the celebration, happy to be counted as one of this amazing group of people from so many backgrounds. He tried his best not to be the center of attention during the festival and the congratulations from so many people, both because of his normal avoidance of the spotlight, and because he feels like he didn't have much to do with the group's success as the late-comer.
He gratefully accepts the elixer, and feels a slight change in his attitude, and feels himself open up a bit more to the people around him. He attributes it to the wine he was also drinking, but the effects didn't totally wear off in the morning...
[ooc +1 to CHA]
In the morning he hears the call for the group as he is finishng hi daily spell preparation, and comes out to the common room to see the other Petals slowly gathering
Gothruk (BatMark subbing for Logan) Tuesday October 31st, 2017 7:59:17 PM
Gothruk quaffs the Elixir, eyes wide with excitement. [b]"Tastes like...victory."[b] After a night of carousing, he wakes to the knock, and after gearing up, descends to join his comrades.
