..... holding our own here at position #6.

I noticed another D&D site listed higher than ours, but to be honest with everyone, I really enjoy the involvement here at the Red Dragon Inn and am not interested in going anywhere else!

Topic: Duel II AD&D Thread
Subject: Group 1 ... Okay Guys ...


..... from what Mayor Ormond has told us and it being 4pm I propose the following for discussion.

Obviously Group 2 is closer to the Hermit and knowing who is in that party [without consulting what they are deciding In Game from this Q&A Thread that we are all reading!] it should be safe to assume that they will investigate the Hermit and be able to progress from there!

What I think we should do [and what the Paladin in particular would do at this point in time!] is go to Building #16 The Foaming Mug Inn and investigate the scene of battle for any clues while it is still daylight outside!]

We can leave the donkey and wagon there and we have enough rations to "Camp Out" in the ruins and see if we can draw any Evil out of hiding while we spend the night there!

This gives us the opportunity to look for clues and also puts us in the proximity of the others who returned after disappearing who are acting a bit odd at the nearby Buildings that Mayor Ormond has already revealed to us.

Also, we are making progress in the direction of the Temple that our friend Deathstalker is itching to investigate and at this point Gunther is inclined to follow Deathstalker wherever his blood lust wants to take him in the adventure!



So let's open it up for discussion and make a decision here and get the adventure progressing!

The only other question(s) I would ask Mayor Ormond is about the best place to settle for the night and more questions about The Foaming Mug Inn.

If we agree to go to The Foaming Mug Inn then we could inform Mayor Ormond as to our intent and ask him to send word to the local Constable and Militia that we are here to investigate the disappearances!

Perhaps Mayor Ormond would also be so kind as to send word to Group 2 to inform them as to where we are headed and to warn them about that Hermit ring leader [as Mayor Ormond suspects he might be!] who is hanging out at Building #27 and since the good Mayor Ormond would probably inform us that there is an Inn near there, then it may be safe to assume that our compatriots could be found there by a messenger from the mayor!

What does everyone else think about a plan of action?

Ashlands, Slith Sagonissra
Spiregate, Palace of the Gold Dragon Spirelords
Febre, Dawn


Draygo’Solarr listened intently for any telltale signs of eavesdroppers beyond the wall as he waited for the one named Cyrus the Berodiman to be escorted before his adopted father Eskalios of the Golden Dragon shaman clan.

Introductions were brief and to the point when matters of the security of the order of the Golden Dragon shaman clan hung in the balance.

“This is my adopted son, Draygo’Solarr.”

The adopted Dragon Shaman had been well briefed regarding the Berodiman who was to accompany him to the Ashlands. Draygo’Solarr stepped forward, ears keen for anything amiss beyond the walls as he responded, “Greetings, friend from the old world, today, we shall bring to light a coming darkness.”

Draygo’Solarr kept one ear to the courteous and respectful response from Cyrus, followed by the ensuing conversation between his adopted father and the Berodiman. His other was ever alert as a gifted natural radar to detect anything amiss beyond the walls.

When Eskalios and Cyrus looked skyward beyond the crystal portal overhead, the adopted Dragon Shaman felt his heart yearn for the sweet song of the forest lands from whence he had been rescued by his adopted father in the distant past.

As Eskalios described the tar lakes of Sudiglan and the disturbing creatures reportedly emerging from the abyss in the Ashlands [as a mocking backdrop to their dangerous assignment to collect samples from the lake of tar for Eskalios and other nameless confidants to unlock the mysteries hidden therein], the call of the woodlands stirred deep within Draygo’Solarr as if the soothing whispering winds of his Sucurion Elven heritage were encouraging the young Golden Dragon Shaman that his true destiny lay well beyond the desolation of their assigned destination, which threatened the very existence of the life he had grown to know and embrace as his very own.

“I would be pleased to accept this mission to repay in part my debt to the Skoarn nobles,” Cyrus replied with a bow as he accepted the assignment without doubt or question.

Eskalios motioned to his adopted son to draw near as he cupped his hand and whispered some instructions to Draygo’Solarr, who in turn nodded and approached Cyrus while holding the index finger of his right hand to his lips as a sign of cautious silence.

“Welcome friend Cyrus,” declared the young Golden Dragon Shaman as he raised his voice with an uncharacteristic enthusiasm, while extending his arms wide to embrace Cyrus in a bond of equal acceptance as he approached his new comrade with deliberate, swift and graceful steps. “This is but a menial task that no true Skoarn need sully himself with when there be ones such as ourselves of a lesser station who are much more suited for such dirty work.”

As Draygo’Solarr gripped Cyrus with a firm embrace, the young Dragon Shaman whispered ever so quietly in Cyrus' right ear, “You and I are the only ones Eskalios can trust ... beware my friend ... even the walls have ears!”

Subject: Group #1 Gunther and his map ...


..... is now posted at An Evil in Orlane and you will quickly discover that Gunther is initially silent for this round to focus his Discerning Evil Intent ability.

Also posted subsequent reactions and the questions Gunther would ask with his map as a reference!

I have purposely narrowed my questions to allow plenty of room for everyone to interact with Mayor Ormond as I believe that Gunther is now in character to slowly blend into the background and allow others to exercise their special talents and abilities for the furtherance of the adventure with their participation!

So whatever you guys decide to do needs to be posted at An Evil in Orlane in a role play by your character to give Trip plenty of ammunition to post his follow up!

Topic: An Evil in Orlane
Subject: Gunther and his map



Gunther courteously nodded as he took a seat at the table in full view of Mayor Ormond, Ormond’s mysterious companion and the curious Owl that had been placed on the table as if it were a mystic artifact of some grand inquisitor.

As the young Paladin settled into his chair, he placed his Medium Shield at his left side [leaning against the chair and his leg] as he willed his countenance to exude that special charisma of his while he deftly withdrew his map and set it before him on the table [holding the map in his left hand while gently gripping his holy symbol that hung around his neck with his right thumb and forefinger] as if he were intently studying the map while seemingly absent-mindedly playing with his personal jewelry.

Gunther had broken the ice between his friends and the strangers they had met since arriving in Orlane [with his own unique brand of unorthodox conversation] and now it was time to be silent to focus his ability of Discerning Evil Intent while relying on his companions to engage Mayor Ormond in a flow of questions and answers.

Breathing a silent prayer to his One True God, the young Paladin set about focusing on Mayor Ormond, his mysterious companion and the Owl ornament to discern any Evil Intent while he remained silent for the required period of time for his ability to reveal whether or not the party of adventurers was in any immediate danger!


Should Gunther realize there is Evil Intent directed towards the group, he will remain calm and alert, trusting that his Protective Aura will be sufficient for passively defending himself and his companions until they can react in a reasonable manner to the threat.

In the event there is No Evil Intent, then Gunther will weave his way into the conversation whenever he is spoken to, exchanging pleasantries and complimenting his host on such a fine home and what an honor it is to be invited in for a hospitable talk.

If asked why he is in Orlane, the young Paladin will respond that he is looking for land to settle and raise a family, but that his personal desires are laid aside whenever he suspects an individual, family or even a village is threatened by an unknown Evil.

At the appropriate time, Gunther will point to his map and ask which specific buildings are the sites of these strange disappearances?

He will also ask if there are any unmarked cave entrances or other curious landmarks not drawn on his map?

Gunther also will point to the curious Solid Line in the lake-river between the trees bordering building #10 and building #20 and will also ask about the elongated circular line that appears to be an island catty corner from building #19. Gunther also wants to know if there are any boats for hire to explore those markings?

His answer to any question about why he would be interested in those markings is that it may prove to be a good place to go hunting or fishing! [Whether it be for food to eat or to possibly yield clues to the strange happenings going on in Orlane, the young Paladin will leave it up to Mayor Ormond to figure out on his own!]

Subject: Group 1 ... I just woke up ...


..... and I have to get ready to go to the office now!

Things to consider asking are to get out our maps and ask Mayor Ormond which buildings are the ones where people have disappeared and ask about if there are any caves or anything else not shown on the map we need to know?

Also take a look at the map off to the right of the mayor's house at the lake and you will see [if memory serves me well this morning!] a solid black line and a circular line!

Was going to ask Mayor Ormond about those markings and if there is a boat available to carry us over to that circular marking which I figured was probably an island where possibly there was an opening to what will become a dungeon crawl as Trip alluded to!

Was still thinking about burning a round to discern Evil Intent which would give Oriel or anyone else the opportunity to ask some questions because Gunther has to remain silent to concentrate his focus with his holy symbol ... so please speak up guys because it will be another 12 hours before I can get home and begin writing a post for An Evil in Orlane!
