DM Mitch Friday September 7th, 2018 7:17:51 AM Tink nods along as Auslander recites relevant regulations.
Restlin begins to suspect Auslander is more powerful than any of the dragons and then figuring that Zane can keep the kobolds and they are his problem now heads back to the WLA.
Sesha follows along with Restlin idly bringing up the most recent news with Y’zargo.
Zane wonders if Auslander was joking about the disappearing kobold thing before explaining the kobolds didn’t disappear, that they are in the magical mansion until they can be transferred to the tower tomorrow and Auslander can even visit the kobolds right now if he wants.
Garret falls asleep listening to the inspector.
Beri remarks that the disappearing kobold scheme was clever until they tried to do it in Hook City. He assures Auslander that they’ll make sure if any of the Kobolds are of the disappearing variety they will be properly registered.
Tink says she’ll look them over to check for any unusual abilities.
Auslander says, “I’ll stop by the tower tomorrow to see how the kobolds are settling in and meet their elders. Since everything seems to be in order I will see you tomorrow.” He then takes his leave.
The kobolds finish eating and start looking for a place to sleep. It’s been a tough journey and they’re all tired.

Sesha is happy to mingle at the WLA. She always liked having a bit of reputation here, among peers. It was far more enjoyable than adulation from peasants and commoners whose life she simply could not understand anymore.
It wasn't that she held disdain for the average person, she just had a hard time relating anymore. Once you've slain liches, owned a keep, and ridden dragons, the drama and difficulties of working forty hours for a few silvers seemed foreign.
Here though, everyone understood the risk and rewards of adventure. And everyone here possessed exceptional talents. Even a first rank adventurer, should, by all right be more powerful than a score of common people. To be admired among such company tickled her pride.
"What are you here to train Mage Priest? I've finished my training her more or less, maybe we can do it together?"

Garret snorts and looks around. He realizes he has been sleeping on the docks. Then he wonders if Auslander is watching and will ask him for a permit for sleeping the docks. He scrambles to his feet and looks around, wondering what he missed.

Upon arriving Bosk adds an underground level for the kobolds with adjustments to make it feel comfortable to the creatures and meet their needs.
(Bosk will consult with the more learned members, but I assume this will include living quarters, common areas and a smaller area for worship.

Zane goes and finds Dock, once there he asks, "Can you use the parts of well a wreck of a boat, to recraft a boat out of it? Not a flying boat, just one that floats and won't fall apart. If you can, I'll get the Captain of it to be there to give suggestions as to how it should look. If you need more material, I can see that it's supplied." Softly, so as not to be overheard, "Are they asking you to do too much?"

Restlin ponders for a moment. He'd done quite a bit of WLA training throughout his career. He realizes he's hit all the highlights that have proven useful.
"Dance," is his answer. "Someone who dances as well as you should have a partner that can at least keep up." He holds out a hand to Sesha. "Care to join me? Probably not much you can learn here, but it would be fun."

Beri thanks Auslander, then turns to the exhausted kobolds.
We have talked with inspector and are taking care of the paperwork. By any chance do you have the ability to disappear? If so, we will need to fill out additional paperwork in the morning.
In the mean time, we are preparing a suitable space for you back at our place. Are there any particular features or sleeping accommodations that you would prefer? If so, I can relay the information to Bosk and we can get that prepared for your arrival.

DM Mitch Saturday September 8th, 2018 9:32:38 AM Restlin remarks on Sesha’s cohorts proclivity.
Sesha joins Restlin at the WLA and asks him where he is to train.
Garret asks Auslander for a permit in order to sleep on the docks.
Bosk adds accommodations to the tower for the kobolds.
Wyaar heads back to the tower to do some reading.
Zane asks if Dock has the power to craft ships out of the pieces of an older ship and specifies he doesn’t want a flying ship. He also asks if the construct is being taxed too much.
Restlin tells Sesha he is to train in dance and asks her to do so with him.
Beri informs the kobolds of their conversation with the Inspector and that any disappearing kobolds will have to fill out additional paperwork.
Tink asks the Kobolds if they know how to do anything that might help the people of Hook city.
Dock informs Zane through a series of chirps that it can potentially do as Zane requests but the construct is no shipwright so it might not turn out exactly right. It also informs him it could easily move parts and tools for an actual shipwright if that might make more sense.
Auslander gives Garret a slip of paper and says, “Don’t think anyone would bother you for sleeping on the docks considering who you are, but it is nice of you to ask for the permit to do so.”
The day ends with the dragons going about their various businesses and then returning to their tower. The next morning they are visited by Auslander who is most impressed with the newly constructed digs for the Kobolds.
It isn’t long after Auslander leaves that Agatha knocks on the door Sprocket in toe, “I have made a breakthrough!” she exclaims...

DM Mitch Monday September 10th, 2018 7:01:15 AM Bosk greets Agatha at the door and invites her to breakfast.
Agatha says, “I think I have established a portal to the place where the books came from, the problem is I don’t know if it is stable enough to return here once the journey has been made.”
“Based on the readings Sprocket and I are getting from our instruments the other side of portal gives off readings like nowhere in the Wold.”
“The good news is we at least know it is similar to the Wold in that it is relatively temperature in both clime and breathable air and it doesn’t appear the place the portal leads to does something like constantly fill you with any elemental, positive or negative energy. If the books came from the same place that that construct/undead hybrid came from then it may be worth it to travel there even if the way back isn’t guaranteed. We could always figure that out later after we’ve secured the needed aid.”

Garret stares at the permit for sleeping on the docks...and then wonders if it might be worth something. He shrugs and tucks it away in his belt pouch for later.
The next day when Agatha mentions the gate, Garret turns to Restlin and waits for the magic guy to give his input. Garret doesn't know much about magical gates.
Restlin (Carl) -- AC +18/+9/+13 CMD: +20 HP: 168/168 (Spells) Luck Points: 9/26 Monday September 10th, 2018 12:35:15 PM
Few things terrify Restlin more than Agatha making a breakthrough, but they have a job to do.
So, a whole new world. One with sentient constructs...that sounds pretty neat, but would his magic even work there? Would *any* magic work there? What if these were based on mechanical engineering rather than arcane? So many unknowns, but it was their best lead.
So many questions. Unstable portals were never ok, so far as he was concerned. There were nearly infinite possible locations a portal could shunt you, especially when dealing with inter-dimensional travel. He decides to start there.
"What do you mean, unstable? Does it not stay open reliably? Does the egress point move around?"
Zane (JCC) AC 31, CMB 22, CMD 38, HP 268/268, Blindsense 60' Character Monday September 10th, 2018 2:56:46 PM
The discussion with Agatha almost immediately shifted into high magic, which was above Zane's lofty head. So he'd let the group of high magic users argue the points. He still needs to figure out what the Kobold Tribe was going to do for the Iron Dragons and what he should suggest to them to help them earn their way. "Oh yeah, I still need to ask if Dock is willing to go with us to this other dimension to be our anchor so we can get back here.Unless you've found another way for us to get back." Zane adds.

Sesha too, is concerned.
"Much of my magic comes from Woldsblood. Would a place that's NOT the Wold even have such a magic source?"
Still, if it had to be done it had to be done. She could find other ways to contribute.

Beri scratches his head and thinks over the findings. Well, given our choices I'm inclined to agree that the portal is the best option. We have to get to that construct, and as of right now this is the only option we have. At least we know it's safe to breathe.
You said that the other side of portal gives off readings like nowhere in the Wold. Can you tell us what specifically is different in your readings? Are you saying that we may not be going to another version of the World like the other portals took us to, but to another realm entirely? If so, anything yo can tell us about how magic may be affected would help, especially if you can tell us what types of magic may be affected.
Oh, and nothing indicating magic threads will be following us right?

Bosk starts mentally going through his spell list. "I suppose we better stock up on scrolls that could possibly take us back home from anywhere."
DM Mitch Tuesday September 11th, 2018 7:22:08 AM Tink worries about the gate being two way.
Garret waits for Restlin’s input.
Restlin asks for more details about how unstable it is and what that means.
Zane wonders what the Kobolds can do to help and remembers he needed to talk to Dock.
Wyarr smiles and nods along.
Sesha is concerned about if her magic would work in another world.
Beri thinks that the portal is probably their best option.
Bosk suggests they stock up on scrolls that might be able to get them home.
Agatha tries to allay Tink and Restlin’s concerns. “The portal is currently closed, so nothing can come through it but when we open it again we don’t think things can come through it. As far as the portal being unstable, it won’t stay reliably open long. We can probably keep it open enough to get to the other side but after that we have to find another way back.”
When Zane brings up Dock Agatha says, “It would be best if you could bring him, we think we could possibly use him to establish a second portal back from the other side.”
Agatha says to Sesha, “Half my magic comes from Woldsblood and I have difficulty with certain schools because I am a seer so I am leery about going too. However maybe we can find something on the other side to replace some of our magic with.”
Agatha says to Beri, “Where we are going is not the lost elven city, there will be no sentient magical threads. I’m not sure if there is magic as we know it in this new world, honestly. When I said this place gives off odd readings I mean it doesn’t give off any school of magic, nor traces of arcane, divine or Woldsblood. The Wold is a very magical place so even places that are fairly mundane have a certain amount of background magic, but this new place emits nothing.”

Restlin looks at his friends. Those poor sods didn't worship Wardd like he did. They'd no doubt sit there wondering if this was a good idea. They'd weigh pros and cons. They'd think hard.
Restlin thinks it sounds like an absolute blast; he would not miss it for the wold.
"Yea ok, I'm in. How do we start?"

The druid frowns as Agatha relays her findings. The new land might be safe, but it is far from ideal for him. No magic, that puts me in a bit of a bind. Add to that the strong likelihood of no transformation and no summons, and it's not a scenario I'm particularly fond of. I agree with Wyarr that we need to actually do a good job of preparing for once, just in case the inhabitants aren't the most friendly.
Zane (JCC) AC 31, CMB 22, CMD 38, HP 268/268, Blindsense 60' Character Tuesday September 11th, 2018 9:27:00 PM "I may not be the most trained in magic and all... but if we are planning on going where there is no magic, wouldn't that make any casters not able to cast? And don't forget you want us to take Dock with us, if he's willing to go. And since he's basically pure magic, wouldn't it kill him?"
DM Mitch Wednesday September 12th, 2018 6:10:32 AM Garret ponders a Wold without magic only to be reminded of the battle where he lost half his magic stuff.
Restlin thinks the portal idea sounds like a blast and asks how do they start.
Wyaar asks if they’ll have no magic themselves in the world that has no magic and points out that arrows should still fly at least. He suggests they start preparing.
Beri frowns when hearing about Agatha’s report. He wonders if the lack of magic translates into no summoning or wildshaping and agrees with Wyaar that they need to be prepared.
Zane asks if the casters won’t be able to cast and if Dock is made out of full magic wouldn’t that mean that taking him along would be a death sentence.
Agatha says, “Well one of two things will happen when we go through the portal either we lose magic entirely or we are the only beings in that world with magic. We think that since we can establish the portal which is itself magic that it isn’t that the world we are venturing into is a giant antimagic field or anything it just doesn’t have much naturally occuring magic. They say in the land of the blind the one eyed man is king well if everyone on the other side is “blind” to magic then we become one eyed men and kings. Presumably we should be able to carry our some magic items with us that the residents of the destination could not possibly have nor be able to counter. I suppose as an experiment we could try to make a pact with an outsider and have it verify that it can actually travel to the other side of the portal and back without being banished to is own plane. If the outsider can enter the portal and remain on the other side for any period of time that would imply that the world on the other side of the portal isn’t outright anti-magical.”
She then says,”As to how we should begin, you should all gather at our lab with whatever you want to bring with you as well as any of the books you borrowed. Sprocket and I will calibrate the portal machine and once we have the portal as stable as we can make it we can decide if we just want to take the plunge or bargain with an outsider to test theories concerning this new world. Does that sound like a plan?”

"I wouldn't even know what questions to ask Serenbeth before we go. We don't even know if someone angry is waiting on us for once. We are going into a fairly neutral place, as far as we know, to extract a creature of a specific makeup and then bring it with us. Willingly, too."
She takes a breath.
"Do expect most of my magic to fail, and plan around it. I'll make sure everyone has at least one potion of Heal and I'll spend most of my magical capital that day on long term enhancements that hopefully, don't unravel once we arrive."

Garret is ready when Restlin says he is ready. He looks down at his fists when mention of an "outsider" is made. He knew that he was actually close to being an outsider himself. He wondered if others knew that about him and what they would think of that...then he wonders if they have meat on a stick in the other realm...

Restlin checks out when the subject of divination comes up. "I'm gonna go get ready. You guys have fun with that..."
He motions to Garret to come with. "Come help me pack, dude. I need some blind luck." When they get back to Restlin's room, he asks Garret to close his eyes before lying most of his magical goodies on the bed. "Ok dude, keep your eyes close and pick 5."

At the mention of magic possible not working Bosk behind meeting a list of mundane items he may need.
DM Mitch Thursday September 13th, 2018 7:07:39 AM
Tink suggests using a number of divination spells to see what might be coming round the bend. (OOC: What spells do you want to cast?)
Sesha says that she wouldn’t know what to ask Serenbeth. She points out they are planning to go to a neutral place so they don’t know if anything is waiting for them on the other side. She says she can plan for most of her magic to not do much good and make sure to have some potions for the team.
Garret is ready to go as soon as Restlin is. He thinks about how he is close to becoming an outsider and wonders if other dimensions have meat on a stick.
Restlin checks out when the others mention divination and asks Garret to help him pack.
Garret goes with Restlin to help him pick his allowed items for the luck quest, though disappointed in the lack of food he reaches out with a greasy palm and selects items for Restlin.
Beri shakes Agatha’s hand and thanks her for her work before returning to help get the kobold settled in.
Zane goes to ask Dock if it would like to join them fully explaining everything the dragons know and the danger’s that Dock might face.
Bosk starts making a list of things they might need
Dock chimes to Zane in a way that seems to indicate consent but it also seems to have some concern for its bulky form especially if it is supposed to take part in some sort of ritual. It says something about Restlin maybe being able to give it a temporary bipedal form.
Agatha says to Beri, “Well to give us the best chance of success don’t forget to bring all the books you borrowed and Dock.” She then leaves with Sprocket in tow, presumably to make last minute preparations of her own.

Restlin looks on as Garret decides his fate, picking the following:
Metamagic rod, quicken Metamagic rod, maximize Amulet of natural armor +5 Ring of evasion and lastly his detectivin' cap.
"Good choices, dude. Very good."
He gathers the items Garret chose, leaving most of the rest behind. He grabs his spellbook, his ring of protection (his arcane bond), and Shiny (legacy item - does not count against luck quest items per Cayzle's description).
He places a scroll of greater teleport and the heal potion Sesha made him months (if not years) ago on a table in his room.
OOC: One of the down-time preparations was casting contingency to teleport myself back to my room if my HP drop below 20.
Lastly, he grabs the ring he got back from Sesha and tracks her down.
"Here, love," he begins as he slides the ring on her finger. "I've been working on this since we got back. Just in case you need it."
OOC: The ring is a good luck charm containing 10 luck points. Up to 5 can be used to provide a bonus on any roll "as if they were a mendicant too," which means *any* roll.

Garret watches Restlin pick his items and he pokes at a few of the items left behind. He wonders if they would help him out, but then he thinks about the possible lack of magic or super-mega-powerful magic in the weird place they were going. Part of him felt like this was going to be real easy or read hard and he suspected it wasn't going to be easy...

They go retrieve the wreck and at the shipyard, give instructions for it's reconstruction. Can't call it repairs due to the damage, or it's initial construction. Zane wants it rebuilt as a 4-5 man fishing boat for small sized sailors. After they head to the Tower and moor in back of Starblazer.

Sesha mock swoons as Restlin slips her a ring.
"Proposal in such a human fashion?
She examines the ring and it's auras for a minute.
"Very impressive!"
(Sesha will be prepared to go, I'll update my contingency on my character sheet sometime tonight. I need a sub for Friday please!)
Bosk AC: 42/20/38 blinking, DR10/magic, CMD: 35 93 hp (-18 lost con) /169 Friday September 14th, 2018 8:04:07 AM
Bosk works on his shopping list and prepares to set out.
DM Mitch Friday September 14th, 2018 8:40:51 AM Tink asks how much time people need to prepare, citing she can be ready tomorrow.
Restlin complements Garret on his choices, gathers up his gear and the good luck charm he made Sesha before presenting her with it.
Garret pokes the items Restlin is leaving behind, thinks about how this mission is probably going to be super easy or super hard and realizes the easy part is not very likely.
(OOC: DM reply to Bosk, we had some downtime; if you buy a tome we can say the tome was read then)
Zane asks Dock to help him get the Kobolds wreck to the ship yard so they can leave instructions for its reconstruction before calling Restlin to hopefully help dock.
Beri informs the others that he needs to change his spells and then cast some spells before they leave.
Sesha admires the ring Restlin gave her.
Bosk does his last preparations.
Final preparations are made, people take one last day to allow for any spell selection changes needed before making the journey into the unknown. (OOC: any other last minute things people want to do?)
Restlin (Carl) -- AC +18/+9/+13 CMD: +20 HP: 168/168 (Spells) Luck Points: 9/26 Friday September 14th, 2018 10:12:57 AM
Restlin heads up to see Zane and Dock.
"Humanoid, you say? Sure...should be simple enough. What were you thinking? Do you want to pass for a human, or were you thinking of looking like one of those giant ninja mechy things?
Restlin will cast polymorph any object on Dock to his specifications. The duration will depend largely on how radical a change it's wanting.
***
When it's time to go, Restlin carefully cuts his original detectivin' knit cap out of the fancy top hat shell it's currently stitched into. He hangs up his magical suit and pulls out the simple adventuring gear he wore back when he first joined the Iron Adventurers.
They were about to tangle with three gods, at least one of who would want them dead, and the other was Marteus, a sketchy situation on the best of days. Restlin was going to make darn sure they had another god on their side in all this...
(Restlin's ready to go.)

Beri grimaces as Garret makes his not so quick run to the restroom. Well, I have my gear and collected the books to bring back. Shall we cast our spells right before heading through the portal?
Also, I wanted to check before casting elemental swarm. It will protect us some from an immediate ambush, but might make it hard for us to blend in. I could also cast it, and only bring them trough the portal if it looks like we are entering into trouble, and otherwise just dismiss them.

Having some sort of martial weapon might be handy in a place with different (or no?) magic however it is probably a bit late for Tink to learn how to use it.
Bosk AC: 42/20/38 blinking, DR10/magic, CMD: 35 93 hp (-18 lost con) /169 Monday September 17th, 2018 1:08:18 AM
Bosk finishes making his purchases in the Catacombs when a familiar voice calls out behind him. Heading out already?
Turning around Bosk notices Sanj, one of his first friends in Mudtown and former Iron Adventurer. Last he had seen the young rogue she was working with Hemust and Jillian, former (repentant) Noodle gang members, who ran the groups old shop and now work at Five Mile House. Things are going well for us, and we want to make sure the peace is maintained in both Hook City and Three Mile while you are gone. We figure no one will mess with us if we have your backing, and we can help keep an eye on things for you and pass along any information we here. I've gathered together a network of those loyal to you... her hand drifts to her dagger as she adds, just remember, we are your crew, not some lackeys or gaga fan club. Let it go to your head and I will pluck that idea right out.
Bosk smiles as he looks the group over. Sanji did a good job in finding those he could trust. Behind her are to Brodery Family the Iron Adventurer's sponsored to Hook City after their daughter was killed by assasins. They run “Brodery Apothecary” in Iron Tower Square. Jimbim, now the eldest is, an expert herbalist and supplier of Bosk's poisons. Clarissa, the eldest sister an expert alchemist. Katherine and Billy Boy (Youngsters), and the ever moody Gat. This was formerly Heather Brorderys' family (she was a cleric of The Edge before she died, the first spirit Bosk advanced as an Avenger, one of her eyes was removed and is now the eye in the center of Bosk's forehead).
To their left stands Temujin, a doppleganger with memory loss (now restored) that had an ilithad larva put in his brain that he himself cut out causing the brain damage. He (unknowingly) took on the persona of a druid he was in contact with and helped hut down the illithid occultists responsible for killing previously mentioned druid... and next to him stands a young un-named witch the IA saved from the Manfri and their own tribe in the Sargrass after it was discovered she was a witch. She now trains under Magister Alistair with former party member Maikill. Next to her stand Toby and Rachel, young kids in Hook City that snuck among the group and cut off some of Zeoll's fur to create a fishing lure in order to attempt catching a giant goldfish.
On the other side of the group is Barnacle Jane, a tall and beautiful woman with flowing red hair and captain of Calypso's Cry, known for the unusually high number of women sailors it employed...well not so much the number of women as the captain's willingness and ability to take in young women with little or no skill and make them some of the finest sailors on Rum. Beside her stands Ceri, a large golden haired taur with ivory white horns. Quite large, at over eight feet (including the horns), Ceri is an impressive figure. Two bastard swords long as a man cross her back, the hilts carved into sets of silver minotaur horns and you have little doubt that the Captain is more than capable of dual wielding the massive blades. (Former Captain of the WLA in Run that I believe was later replaced.Both these are NPCs I created for that game.)
Interspaced between them are several others BOsk has next on his many journies. The first is young half-elf appearing to be no more than thirteen, only her eyes reveal the many years she has wandered the Wold with no more than her crossbow to protect her Alley Cat (The Wild Side Tap),. The other is a gnomish witch, his uniform clearly marking him as a student at Maplehurst Academy. His stained hands easily identify him as an alchemist in trainingRoonwinkle (Maplehurst Academy Tap. Next he spots a shirtless dwarf whose gray beard is singed Boomy (Retired from The Forged). Richard Goodspeed of Wardd's Temple (former runner of the Woldian Lotto). Towards the back he can just make out a well dressed halfling with light brown hair and light skin steps out. His face is scarred on the right side, as are both of his hands. Napalm (Hellmarr Tap).

The druid shakes his head in agreement. I'm not a good choice either, I don't even have hands half the time when I'm fighting. Even if I did, I'm afraid I'm not much of a melee fighter. I tend to call upon the creatures of the Wold to aid me when it comes to the up close stuff, while I use my magic from a distance.

Once more into the breach... (DM Hugh) Monday September 17th, 2018 11:09:51 PM Restlin asks Dock what it had in mind. Dock chimes something about worrying that if it isn’t in a construct form wouldn’t it negatively affect the ritual? It also says something about worrying the giant construct things from the other dimension are too big and asks if it could be made some sort of medium humanoid-shaped construct so as better to travel with the party. The mage-priest then changes into his detective cap and simple adventuring outfit.
Garret has to make a pit stop before they go.
Beri says he has the books and gear and asks if they should casts spells before stepping through the portal.
Wyaar cautions against using an elemental swarm if they are going to a low magic world.
Tink nods not sure what to expect.
Sesha thinks about how used she got to the Iron Dragons being a tumbling, cursing ball of magical destructions and how not resorting to these things would be difficult.
Zane shows up with a mace and asks who wants to hold it. Garret wonders if they got a weapon no one can use, but Bosk claims it.
Tink thinks martial training might be useful in a place with different magic but it might be too late to learn how to use it.
Bosk finds himself approached by a group of old allies seeking his blessing to guard the city in the Dragon’s name while they’re gone.
Garret asks if a weapon was purchased that no one can use and then suggests giving it to Bosk.
Zane talks about how his fists are more appropriate than the mace and how he fights as a dragon more often than not.
Sesha thinks that Bosk having it is appropriate.
Beri opines he’s not a manufactured weapon melee fighter.
Wyaar points out how he’s an archer.
The party heads to Agatha’s lab. Her and Sprocket are fiddling with the machine When she sees the books that Beri is carrying, she runs over and grabs the books adding them to a pile under glass near the contraption.
“Give it more juice.” she says to Sprocket. The addition of the books and addition magic energy causes a beige portal to grow in the center of the room.
Agatha has one of her backpack hookshot portal things on and is holding out a second one to the group. She says, “We better get going before the portal destabilizes, this is the strongest we managed to make it.”

Zane Strings both bows over his shoulder, side by side, and tuicks a couple metamagic rods into his belt. He pulls out a few feet of rope and wraps and then ties up a bundle of arrows. "Well, I guess I'm ready. What, didn't you say there was no magic? I want to be sure I have access to my bows at least, and the rods, well, maybe they'll be able to focus a little magic if there is any." As he gets looks... He loops the arrow bundle with the bows and then ducks through the opening, looking for Katinka.

Garret looks around the lab and prepares to grab something to look at when Tink jumps through the portal. He says, "Oh, we're doing this now?" He pats his belt pouch to be sure he has extra meat and bread then follows through.
Once more into the breach... (DM Hugh) Tuesday September 18th, 2018 11:02:53 PM
The party steps through the portal with medium speaking golem-Dock and Agatha wearing her own hookshot backpack.
Beri strapped on a backpack himself and Sesha casts some buffs before doing so.
The Wold shifts, the portal disappears and you find yourself in a lushly appointed cabin adorned with glowing light orbs, some sort of spinning fan on the ceiling, vents dispensing cold air, several bookshelves and an impressive desk with a lush chair with a man sitting on it pressing buttons on some sort of device.
He slowly looks up from his device to see you standing there and does a double take before saying, "“I have to hand it to you, that is the best entrance I’ve ever seen. So how’d you do your trick? Also neat Iron Dragons costumes and that is high praise coming from me considering I invented the characters. Well except for the golem and the star mage but when you have a large group of friends not everyone can cosplay as the heroes. I take it you all want an autograph?” he asks.

Loremaster perhaps?"
"Uh, sure. I mean, yes please" Tink retrieves some parchment from her kit and hands it out to the man, playing along to his delusions. Invented us? The troubled soul. He reminds her of the poor crazy people one often sees on the streets. This guy must be quite unwell.
Tink looks over the man - and room - for magical auras. Fearing the worst, she also looks about the party to see if their spells are still in effect. She looks about the room for weapons, and if need be, somewhere to hide. That spinning fan may be a trap. Spinning bladed thing are often bad.

Perception is autopass. Restlin decides to try something.
"Yes sir! Name's Sam Winchester. It's great to meet you! Couldn't afford Restlin's fancy outfit, so I went with young Restlin. How'd I do?" He does a little twirl to show off his outfit.
He grabs his pack and starts digging through it, looking up in mock horror (bluff 29). "Oh my glob. I forgot my copy of (insert observed book title here)." He fakes a small panic attack, grabbing Sesha's shoulders. "I told you not to let me forget it! What am I going to get him to sign now?" He takes a knee and starts hyperventilating.

The thought of being created by anything but a god was not a pleasant one. And this individual fit the description of no god she knew of.
When Restlin starts shaking her, her first instinct is to administer a backhand. Consort or not, it was NOT okay. Then she catches his ruse.
"That's your problem, Mage-Priest. And stop trying to make me break character."
With a huff, she adds.
"Have him sign your Tome of Intellects cover or something."

Beri thinks back to when Bosk talked of such a game and starts to piece together what might be happening. Is it possible that this universe and created the Wold, while Bosk in kind created this universe? Or did this author write himself into the Wold the way one would expect any Marvel-ous creator to have a role in the world they created? In any case, if this man created the Wold then his autograph could well be a thing of Power when the return to the magic of the Wold he created. The druid finds himself addressing the man in a manner similar to how he's addressed many of the Powers of the Wold that's he's been privileged enough to meet... barring the time Gargul smacked him around.
To ask the divine creator to autograph a dusty tome makes sense for one who's days are spent indoors among books, but alas I am an adventurer and am seldom in granted such reprieve. If I have found favor in you that such words of divine power should to be gifted to me, I humbly ask that they be inscribed upon my cloak of resistance so that as I venture across the Wold all will know that the great Chuck Vonnegut has got my back.

Zane wonders why they would need autographs and looks at his ring and bow.
Sesha briefly considers slapping Restlin before catching on.
Garret pulls out some food and sits down to watch.
Wyarr tries some magic, which doesn’t work, and asks if the man can sign Garret’s face.
Beri asks for his cloak to be signed.
Bosk asks for his sword to be signed.
To Zane he says, "I take it you're not a fan; well you can't please everybody. Let me guess they roped you in to dressing up as Zane due to your size"
Chuck takes one of his books off the shelf and says to (Sense Motive: 24) "Sam", "Now take it easy I have a spare copy of Mudtown Blues I can give you and look I'm even signing it." He pulls out some sort of writing device that has a heavy font weight and proceeds to sign Tink's parchment, the copy of Mudtown Blues he gives to Restlin, Bosk's sword, Beri's Cloak and Garret's face.
He sniffs a little while he signs the halfling's face and does a double take on Garret's feet, he also does a double take near Bosk and Zane kind of blanches and says, "Some of you are really tall or really short and your costumes look so real, plus Garret actually smells the way I've always thought he would." When he gets to Bosk's sword he says, "Hey that's a real sword and it's sharp! You guys...a... really went all out didn't you?"
He tells them, "Well I think I need to sit down, now that you've all had your autographs I take it you'll be leaving. The door is that way." he points

As his cloak is being signed, Beri notices a very intriguing book. Guys, do you see that? A copy of Mega Cyber Robo Ninja Man #1! And guess what, it' was written by none other than a Mr. Chuck Vonnegut! You can't hope for a more accurate portal than that! Hmm, I guess that means that we more than likely need to portal into another location. We need to find a connection into that realm. Hmm, and could his latest story have anything to do with one of our upcoming adventures?
He turns back to Chuck, still unclear if he's looking into the eyes of the creator of his universe, or a gifted writer with a crystal ball of some sort.
I hate to keep you from your work, but can I pry into what your newest story is about? Is it another Robo Ninja tale by any chance? Or something completely different? I've always wondered how you came up with such interesting concepts. Was there something that inspired you to bring life to the Robo Ninja series? And your latest story for that matter?
A really big fan ... (DM Hugh) Friday September 21st, 2018 12:17:24 AM Tink asks for spoilers and tries to scan for magic items. Nothing lights up, which could mean nothing is magical or that her own magic powers to detect magic aren’t working. From what Tink can tell she is on a material plane with little to no magic possibly similar to some of the places the Iron Dragons visited prior to the Sargrass invasion through way of orb.
Restlin demands there be no spoilers and starts to leave. He attempts to think through the rings at the party.
Wyarr also asks for spoilers.
Zane checks if his darkvision is working and plays with his quiver. He can still see in the dark, but he can’t seem to access his quiver’s magical space.
Beri notices a copy of Mega Cyber Robo Ninja Man on the shelf and asks Chuck about both it and what he is currently working on.
Chuck says to Beri, “Don’t get me wrong Mega Cyber Robo Ninja Man was one of the first things I wrote and a nice stepping stone to bigger and better things but I have moved beyond him plus there was that whole legal dispute with MGM over alleged similarities to you-know-who. I mean I guess it’s nice to know you guys like some of my other books and have been following my career for a while but I’ve turned the page as far as he’s concerned if you pardon my pun. As for what I’m working on know, well you’ll just have to wait for my next book to come out like everyone else, now if you’ll excuse me…” he trails off going back to pressing buttons on his device that looks like a lit up black mirror attached to a base with a number of buttons.
Tink notices the fan might be controlled by a small white switch set into the wall but it does not appear to be trapped.

Beri tries to keep the author talking, hoping they can get some useful information.
Yes, that legal dispute was such a shame. And you had set up so many tantalizing plot hooks that we never got to see developed. I can't tell you how many times I've wondered what was planed for the Robo Ninjaj, or where he'd be now if the story had been allowed to continue. I suppose that's what keeps drawing me back to that story, all of the potential that was built up just waiting to be released.
Beri tries to talk to the others over the ring. I'm not sure what to ask. I feel like he has to know something that can help... do you think asking to look at/buying the copy of the book would be worth it? We did read the books before we got here, so unless the cover is magic... hey, do you think he woke up a few nights ago to find a bunch of empty covers with no books?
He's holding back; he's hiding but what I can't decide ... (DM Hugh) d20+9=13 ; Saturday September 22nd, 2018 12:35:41 AM Tink suggests cheekily that Chuck add a eunuch to his next book, gets the feeling Chuck is hiding something about Mega Cyber Robo Ninja Man and gets ready to make a move should Chuck reach for the light switch. She then looks over her shoulder to see Agatha fiddling with her backpack.
Sesha is not pleased with the situation and tries to cast the bloodwitch lore cantrip only to not get anything from it.
Zane points out how his quiver ain't opening and then asks where to next.
Restlin tries to figure out what the switch set in the wall does and he thinks it toggles the spinning fan blades on the ceiling. Restlin tries to cast a spell and a few things happen at the same time; a whirring noise starts emanating from Agatha's backpack; any spells or abilities triggered previously immediately take effect, all the messages sent over the rings come over the rings at the same time and Zane's quiver opens.
Agatha says, "The magic field projector works! the only problem is I don't know how long it will last so I might have to turn it off again unless you guys need some spells. Sprocket came up with this gem in case we really didn't have magic and needed to open a portal. Beri's pack has one too."
Chuck fails the save vs the charm effect, He says "Look, I don't want to rehash the court case. We lost I had to stop writing the books and pay a fine. Meanwhile they got to keep making their movies but maybe I got the last laugh considering the remake they pushed a few years ago hasn't been given a sequel yet. I mean I enjoyed Gary Oldman's performance but the original and it's sequel were better plus it had the funny dad from that 70's show."
Garret sits on the floor munching on soggy bread.
Beri then chimes in about how the legal dispute was a shame and there were so many places the stories could have gone. He asks over the rings what he should ask.
Chuck says, "You know you seem like a good lot, a little strange and really really into character in the case of the bloodwitch, but hey everyone's a character right? Is that motor in your pack electric or internal combustion? You might want want to turn that off if its internal combustion since I'm not sure if we have adequate ventilation but anyway I guess i can let you in on a little secret. I didn't come up with the mega cyber robo ninja man character. I mean I wrote the stories down but I heard them over this. He goes to a panel in the wall and opens it only to reveal a small black box with dials, knobs and wires. The funny thing is I haven't thought about it for a while but maybe if we are lucky I can catch a broadcast and you can heat it for yourself. I mean I thought these were just indy radio dramas but maybe just maybe they were transmissions from another dimension or something like that."
Chuck starts fiddling with the dials on the box.

Garret watches him go to the box. He thinks, "Interdimensional radio waves?" This was way beyond his comprehension. He was pretty puzzled, but he had seen a number of different things in his short lifetime, and little was beyond belief at this point.

Bosk's hand tightens around his sword. Transmission, like we are going to hear it? You are no actually summing him to us are you?
DM Mitch Monday September 24th, 2018 8:33:40 AM Restlin tries to detect magic on the box Chuck is fiddling away with, it is very strange as it isn’t magical but it feels as if it was being powered by some kind of lightning evocation but it isn’t.
Garret is puzzled by what Chuck is doing.
Tink watches what Chuck is doing and sees some kind of wave pattern on the device as well as hearing different jumbled noises as he turns the dials.
Wyaar is glad they didn’t have to tie Chuck up and asks Agatha is she has a way of testing dimensional signals with her.
Bosk tightens his hand around his sword and asks Chuck if he is going to summon him to them.
Agatha says to Wyaar, “I got one of those in both packs some where, just one thing at a time. I’m trying to figure out if I should conserve the magic field. Who knows what this box does I don’t know if my magic will interfere with this new magic this world seems to possess, those spinning fan blades, that black mirror and now this box all do things in response to Chuck’s stimuli yet none radiate magic, it feels like they are almost being powered by something reminiscent of a lightning evocation but it isn’t.”
Chuck says to Bosk, “I’m not summoning him, way to stay in character, I’m just trying to find the channel that spoke of him.”
Finally Chuck seems satisfied and a voice speaks over the radio, “This is Lazer Hawk. Can anyone hear me? Dr Henrichzimmerschneit has really done it this time. Not only does he have his mad nearly indestructible robot body housing his brain but he’s created 8 robots with terrifying weapons that I fear are more than Mega Cyber Robo Ninja Man and the tribe can handle. We’ve tried using hit and run tactics against them but the damage we do has been nominal. If anyone is out there we would welcome them to the cause. “
The message starts to repeat while Agatha starts fiddling with something else in her backpack.

Hmm...so maybe this Chuck guy is just a detour. Sounds like what they really need is on the other side of that device he has. He looks over the Agatha, fairly sure she's had the same idea.
"Does it transmit as well, or can we just listen?" Restlin really carefully watches Chuck fiddle with the device, trying to get a handle on how it works.

Over the link Beri responds to Zane. I would assume it is enough of a link. With the books we were trying to open a portal with something already removed and relocated to our dimension. Here we have a live, direct link that we can verify is correctly tuned. The real question is whether we can copy the frequency, but it looks like Agatha is a few steps ahead of us on that already.
Beri listens to the repeating message, the voice seems convincing enough.
Well, whether it's an indy radio station really is from another dimension, it sounds like they could use some help. By any chance, when you were listening to this in the past did you ever hear confirmation of someone using magic or having supernatural powers? Or mention of weak points that the enemies tend to have? Anything that could help us if we were to fight along side them out in... a crossover?

Bosk looks at the bookshelf for anything on the Iron Dragons as an idea occurs to him. A stupid, irrational idea. Yet how many superstitions and legends had he personally experienced first hand and discovered to be true. This might seem unorthodox, but could I commission you to write a novella or short story involving Bosk? I have the gold coins with which to pay.

Tink still wonders about flipping through some of the books here to sneak a peek at the endings. Or to at least see how accurate the writing is.
DM Mitch Tuesday September 25th, 2018 7:59:15 AM Restlin thinks that Chuck seems like a detour and that Agatha has the same idea. He asks Chuck if it can send as well as receive.
Restlin gets the idea that one of the knobs effects how loud the sounds coming over it are while another adjusts the wave pattern on the device.
Chuck says to Restlin, “Sorry Sam but the transmitter broke and I could never find a replacement for this model.”
Garret asks if they can and should help and also where are the ones who need help.
Zane asks if the broadcast is enough to open a portal and if so he votes for doing it and then going.
Wyaar looks to Agatha and considers leaping through the device.
Beri opines that the radio transmissions could be used to create a new portal and asks Chuck questions about what they might face.
Bosk offers some gold to the author. He stares at Bosk dubiously and glances at the gold coins doubtfully - sense motive 10 Highlight to display spoiler: {he seems to think that they’re fake. Or that you’re all insane}. ”Aren’t you taking this in character thing to far? And I don’t do commissions sorry.”
Chuck says, “Well Mega Cyber Robo Ninja Man does have some ninja abilities and there are some null blades on both sides of the conflict but other than that I think abilities of the dramatis personae are more technological than supernatural.”
Agatha says, “Give me some time to calibrate the portal generator in the backpack and then we should be able to proceed the only thing is I don’t know if we will be able to retrieve the portal generator once we are on the other side. I also don’t know how hard it will be to journey back home once we are 2 portals removed. I’ll try to set something up to travel, if you have anything else you want to do here better do it quick.”

Bosk wonders if Starblazer could help.
Agatha fires a ray from her backpack at the device Chuck was fiddling with and a portal starts to open. She says, “I don’t think we’ll have too long with this one being open so you’d better hurry and if we are taking him,” nodding to the sleeping Chuck, “someone better grab him.”
She takes the backpack off and it is kind of leaning on a stand like setup and grabs the grapple from the pack as she starts approaching the portal. “I’m going to try to pull it from the other side, but if that doesn’t work, I’ll need the spare pack.”

Tink hurriedly tries to grab a book or two on the Robo guy. It's possible they may have some inside info that may come in handy. She would like to have read the IA books but time doesn't look to be with them.

Wherever you were before shifts and the party finds itself in a blasted wasteland sparsely dotted with some sort of metal wreckage or sickly trees in a few places. Agatha manages to pull the backpack through the portal before it shuts completely.
