Subject: Posting........
I may get something up tonight.
This is a very interesting event. If these are the Sword Wraiths we might be able to knock off a few. It might be that we disturb the spell that put them to sleep and accidentally awake and release them to return their master.
We have time to back track and check the other doors before returning to open these. Might really be a good idea..might turn out to be a bad idea.
Right now Keeper is the leader as Cor and Nimu is second as our most powerful magic user. Ulthok has been a trusty advisor, but with being away I'll follow their agreed lead.
I'd say we can leave it to fate and have Keeper roll a d20 and call his favorable first, high or low. (1-10 low, 11-20 high) He makes his roll we follow his lead, he fails his roll we follow Nimu's lead.
Use the roller in the tools and have it email us the results.
Just Saying......

Subject: Hi Jaiba.........
Welcome.
Minion Master? Well I'd need to look up stuff on that too.
At low levels in 2.0 all characters don't have much power and I guess it will take a while before a Minion Master can actually acquire Minions. Like a Priest gaining followers.
But I'll see if I can find something.
Maybe you'll get a reply from other folks.

Thanks folks for carrying on without me. I hope to be able to start posting again by next weekend.
Mom is now in a rehab facility and will most likely be in there for a month. I hope all of our stress will smooth out a bit now.
Last night I was able to escape for a bit as our 5.0 group played online through Roll20. It was good therapy for me.
Hope to catch up soon.

Subject: In St.Louis............
Long drive, kind of tired. Got a meeting tomorrow at 1030 central time. Figure that will be an hour or so than I get to drive home, another 8 hour drive.
Here's a thought.. we had only meet 3 of the wraiths, which means we could kill 6 or 7 of then here (they never get to the future). So figure we are going to have some kind of battle when the boxes are opened. It will take our best attacks and magic to kill them so do your research. I think Tann let on that Limper, Howler and the female one were the strongest, so that could make the other easier to do in. Easy being relative.
Yes Ulthok would look for secret doors and Cor might be able to sense a passage. This place s full of magic so detect spells won't help a lot. Sort of like detect water in an ocean.
Thank you all for your kindnesses, my Mom is starting to recover but still a long way to go. Swelling has started to go down in her arm. Just now being able to talk in several related sentences. She is getting a bit stronger and starting to eat. Off the morphine and on pill pain killer. She can lift her arms, but can't hold anything.
I can't seem to get thoughts together for a post but I'll try to pop in ideas and thoughts from reading your Q&A's.

I most likely won't get a post up this weekend or even this week.
My mother was in a car accident Thursday and has been in the ICU since. She's 91 and lives alone so we'll need to set up care once she's out. I have to go out of town Tuesday and Wednesday for work so I'll be real busy trying handle everything.
Please proceed without me, I'll try to keep up reading but no promise on the posts.

 ..... Tann just loves it when the players really start to think seriously about the game and don't just play reactions.
This is great stuff for thought. Really good questions too.
There are answers if we ask the right questions and check our facts. It helps us in not walking so blindly into danger, but it doesn't stop us.
I'll have to check on what spell is used to check illusion.

Subject: There Were Ten........
Here's what I found on page 1.
The ten Valor who were corrupted became known as the "Ten Who Were Taken" or simply "Shadow-Wraiths".
So it looks like for that there were ten.
Tann later changed the reference to Sword Waiths.
Also itsaid, "With the loss of Karza and the dragon, the Army of Darkness wavered and the forces of good began a rout. The wizards cast a magical slumber upon the Shadow-Wraiths and banished Sadist to limbo."
So if this is where they slumber it should be a lot newer seeing that the battle just ended.

Subject: Well........
The spells are working, they just seem to end oddly. So the Clean Cantrip should work.
The prayer said, "Priceless blades of destruction
At the place of power lay"
So we are still looking for a place of power and there we should find "Priceless Blades of Destruction". It doesn't say they are evil swords, they may be what we need to help back in our time to take down the baddies. Or they could be the swords that the Sword Wraith's have to give them power.
Wow the possibilities!!
----------------------
Of course we could have misunderstood the message.
""Woe and death before you lay
Center path straight night and day
Sweet music of death the price we'll pay"
The center path could be the straight path to woe and death.
Wow more possibilities!!

Subject: Just Wade In...The Worst that Can Happen Is You Die......
Well from Sirene's prayer it seems we are looking for a sword.
But we never really know until we find something. We have found these boxes and don't know what there are. We need to find a way to move on and it may be in or under one of the boxes. There could be great danger in them too. We don't seem to have an clues yet either. Breaking open a box could be bad or good. Pushing a box around could be good or bad.
Just write what you think Alyia would want to do? Act, investigate, watch others or make suggestions.
You can make suggestion here in Q&A if you want others opinion.

We walked down this long hall, looked into several empty rooms, into large room at the end of hall that has ten large boxes.
Are there any doors in this big room besides the one we used to enter?

If you are looking for an idea, Alyia could use the Cantrip "Clean" to remove the dust and dirt from the boxes. That might help reveal and writing left.

Me to.
The seven boxes are 7x4 but how deep? 7x4x4, 7x4x1 ?????
We have been walking for an hour, so is that in a straight hall or in a spiral going up or down? Were their stairs?
Cor should be able to sense if we are going down.
BTW - I goofed and thought I was on Q&A and posted this in story, so I deleted it. So if you are looking for an Ody post I took it down.

Subject: Depending on What Tann Puts Before Us........
This round I'd say we are just getting things ready to go and next round we head off , most likely through the middle door.
Ulthok will take the lead as usual and search for trips and such. We should find a stair or sloping passage going down. I would guess we have several floors to explore. The next encounter will likely be in room like we had in the floating castle. So cinch up your nickers and away we go.

Subject: A Time To Prepare,,,,,,,,
Ulthok looked up to the Enchantress," Well here we go. Sounds like we take the center door. Look for more enchanted swords and try to avoid death.... Well we best prepare."
Ulthok opened his Tome of Magic and began pouring over the pages while Peri snuggled next to him. Soon the the Halfling heard the peaceful breathing and light snore of the little creature. The Mage nibbled at his rations as he studied and had set out an apple for Peri where she woke.
(O.O.C. If I don't send any different spells to you Tann then I'll just use the set we started with.)

I be the Ody! The name came from Odie in Garfield comics.
We were playing a table top game and our party leader was a barbarian of the Garfolk Tribe. The leader was Garfield so of course he must have his Odie so I created a Werebear Sharman and named him Odyson Bruin, which of course would be Ody for short.
So Ody is absolutely alright!

Topic: Hi! Newbie here!
Subject: Welcome..........
Hello......... Thought I'd pop in here and add the Ody welcome.
A really good place to start here is "Pit F(r)iend's epic guide to getting started for newbies." That helps you figure out how to navigate the halls of the Inn.
To meet folk in real time pop into the DragonChat where I act as current resident bartender. We offer our very own "Good Old Froth-n-Slosh", the stale pale ale that is so light it has the foam on the bottom.
Just grab a mug off the mantel and draw a cold frosty one.
My assistant Igor is usually lurking around if I'm not there.
He never says anything, must have something to do with having his tongue cut out by his last boss, that nasty bartender over at the Orc Bar & Grill.
I'll have him put out a plate of "Lady Fingers" in your honor.
Reminds me we need to have another "Ladies Night" and restock.
Anyway the Posting Games are great place to get to know folks and of course the DragonChat is our favorite lounge.
So lurk or play, welcome to the Inn
Oh and here is nice soft fluff towel. Save it for later.

Subject: Like They Said.........
I took over Ulthok and had to figure out who he was as I saw him. I used what others had wrote for facts but played him as I saw him. I have changed him some over time even from how I started him too. So just go for it!
I'd say you can have fun with your familiar too. Play Xin to accent Alyia's actions. I will was Peri to added to our story and help the party with her magic.
-------------------------------
BTW - here is a great site that tells what the 2.0 wizards are. But it doesn't give Cantrips. You need to look those up in:
AD&D - Wizard's Spell Compendium Volume 4. Page 1049.

Topic: Trilogy War Q/A
Subject: Spells.....
For a Mage you study for 8 hours and "refresh" your knowledge so you can cast those spells. You then keep those until you use them or replace them with more study. We can only have a max number of spells at any given time. (see your character description, so many level 1, level 2, ect.)
Now in Ulthok's case he lost his spells when he died, so now he must study again to "refresh" his knowledge.
On your character info there is a section on the spells your character has learned and recorded so they are available, if you "refresh" them. It is considered to be your "Spell Book". As you reach new level you can add more spells to your book
I guess the thought is that a mage has learned so many spells that they must sort them out through study so to be able to cast them correctly.
Tann, anything to add?

Subject: Cantrip............
The party had searched the room and found no more clues. Ulthok listened as Roan asked his god for direction.
"Oh Lord Odin, I come to you now in my hour of need. I and my party seek a path to our home time. The one called Allenan spoke of a place steeped in powerful magic, enough that we may be transported back. If you favor us, all father, and I pray you do, Show Me the Path."
For a brief moment a light appeared within the flying dust pointing directly down, as if to show the path led below their feet, then it was gone.
With brief laugh Ulthok commented," Well at least we know we don't have to go up the tower. Perhaps you should have been more specific and asked which door should we go through."
Lothor then volunteered to start cleaning the room so they might rest and take a meal. "If anyone has some extra cloth I can use it to sweep a part of the room where we can rest. I'd rather not use my cloak."
Rayne replied, "I have a towel in my backpack, if you would like to use it?"
The Halfling raised a hand to the fighter Lothor," Rest easy friend, this dust will be gone in a moment. As a young apprentice we are drilled with simple task spells to keep us busy , give us practice and keep our teachers lab clean. There is simple Cantrip called of all things "Clean" that will serve nicely for us now."
With that the small mage swirled his hand and exhaled in an audible whoosh.
(O.O.C. If all went well there will be a large clean area of the floor where the party can rest.)
"Now I suggest before we venture through one those we eat and rest. We don't know what may await us in the lower chambers. I for one need to study to regain my spells or I will only be of value as lock pick and very small fighter."
With that Ulthok made a place to rest for him and Peri and brought out his Tome of Magic and began studying again.
