Subject: Put It Back..........
The words between the Syls had barely faded when a black clad figure leapt in to the room. It raised a wood sword.
There must have been some magic in that old wooden sword he bore, because when he placed it over his head the candles were lit no more.
Dudley noted to it seemed hidden it the dark, his vision did not reveal a heat image as if it were not a living creature. As he prepared to cast little light on the subject he heard Gamard,"Darkness Be Gone!".
Lucky he didn't cast, there was no need for two spells of light.
Pulling out his little club he stepped to his right just in case they needed to dash down the stairs to get out of the room.

Badger smiled broadly at the request. That smile that said you were rutting up the deal again. “Sorry to hear you are out of pocket but I don’t pay half up front, certainly not on a first job. Need to establish some trust first. Besides, this is a consignment job – thought that was obvious. I ain’t the one paying you, it will be the Father who will pay up as soon as you arrive on the cruise liner. Badger continued smiling as he let that sink in and then added, “but if you need me to float you some credits, I can offer you a loan to keep you going – at a good rate since we are to be partners.”
Jon had to smile too, it was just going to be one of those days, "Well thanks for the offer, .... we'll just have to make due." With that Jon nodded to the crew that it was time to leave.
As he passed a the table he snatched up the remnant of a sandwich, between Tess and Angela they'd picked the table pretty clean. With one last look to Badge, " Sheh sheh."
Jon held his comments until they were back on the street. But before he start Tess set into it. “Let’s not do that again, Capt’n”....Remember Stevenson? I sweared that I was lookin’ at him reincarnate..... One more word again’st our girl ‘n crew, and I vowed I were gonna pop him one, no matter who he were.... That reminds me,”
Tess switch on her comm and called back to Grace to get things going at the boat.
Jon ate his sandwich as he walked and listened. When Tess had finished he held up his last bite, "Well it's true what they say...Ain't no such thing as a free lunch.... Ta Ma Duh, why can’t things just go right once?......
I was hope'n not to spend our own money on this run......I guess I'm just used ta taken orders from men I trusted...Angela...thank you, I guess I'll stick to regulate freight.... we sorely need someone to step in on make'n bigger deals." A pang of memory flashed through Jon as he thought of Jason, the man could be a pain, but he sure knew how to do a deal.
As they walked on Jon tried let out what he hoped would seem like an off hand comment, "You know it seems a bit twitchy to have go pick these folk up in some hidey place, almost like there may be more to this than take'n a bride to her wedd'n."

Ok Hammer, I'd say this is the right time to cast light.
If it's moving quickly Dudley might miss it casting Faerie Fire.
Dudley could change his little wood club with Shillelagh.
So got an idea to help the attack.
If it is a Vampire then we could kill it with it's own sword if we can get it away from it.
So which of you big strong Elfs is going to take the sword?

Topic: Treasure Seekers QnA
Subject: Equipment....
So here's a combined list of personal gear:
Back Pack (Personally Sewn), Blanket (Warm Wool Sleeping), Water Pouch (1 Gallon), Sacks (3 Filled with Dried Food & Grain), Flint & Steel (Sparker), Bowls (5), Sewing Supplies, Simple Tools & Rope (Hemp 50 feet), Canteen (Half Gallon), Belt, Belt Pouch (large), Bandages (40), Candles (5 Sticks), Chalk (5 sticks), Fishing Gear (Hook, Line etc), Mirror (Small Steel) and Tinder Box (10 Fires), Oil Flask.
Items from Mad Dog and the Druid Elders:
1 Wand of Cure Critical Wounds (25 Charges) /5d8
1 Potion of Cure Serious Wounds (5 Servings) /3d8
1 Potion of Cure Critical Wounds (5 Servings) /5d8
100 Silver Arrow for Bow
10 pounds of the Wheat Cake with Raisins, Olives and Onions
19 units of the Mixture of Dried Meat and Dried Fruits in Season
+5 Hide Armor
+3 Feather Edged Silver Tomahawk
This Magical Weapon has a +3 to Hit and does 1d8 +2 Damage; Double Damage vs Lycanthropes and +4 Damage against the Unliving! It can also be thrown a distance of 20 feet accurately!
A Non-Modified Roll of 18-20 [by the Castle Keeper aka Hammer] results in the Severing of a Limb / Hand / Foot or Head [also determined by the Castle Keeper aka Hammer] via Percentile Dice
Staff of the Woodlands:
[50 Charges]
Appearing to have grown naturally into its shape, this oak, ash, or yew staff allows use of the following spells:
Charm Animal (1 charge)
Speak with Animals (1 charge)
Bark Skin (2 charges)
Wall of Thorns (3 charges)
Summon Magical Beasts (3 charges)
Animate Plants (4 charges)
The staff may be used as a weapon, functioning as a +2 Quarter Staff in melee combat.
The Staff of the Woodlands also allows its wielder to Pass Without Trace at will, with no charge cost.
These two attributes continue to function after all the charges are expended
+2 Oath Bow with 20 Slaying Arrows:
Slaying Arrows are +1 arrows magically attuned to a particular type or subtype of creature. If it strikes such a creature, the target must make a Constitution Save or Die Instantly! The Castle Keeper aka Hammer determines the particular type of creature it slays!
These Slay Orcs!
+2 Oath Bow is a white +2 Composite Long Bow that whispers; "Swift defeat to my enemies" when nocked and pulled. If the firer swears aloud to slay his target, the bow's whisper becomes the low shout "Swift death to those who have wronged me."
Against such a sworn enemy, the bow has a +5 enchantment bonus and arrows launched from it deal an additional 1d6 points of damage. However, the bow is treated as a +1 weapon against all foes, other than the sworn enemy.
These bonuses and penalties last for seven days or until the sworn enemy is slain or destroyed by the wielder of the Oath Bow, whichever comes first.
The Oath Bow may only have one sworn enemy at a time. Once the wielder swears to slay a target, he cannot make a new oath until he has slain that target or seven days have passed.
Even if the wielder slays the sworn enemy on the same day that he makes the oath, he cannot activate the Oath Bow's special power again until 24 hours have passed from the time he made the oath.
Ring of Sustenance

Dudley passed though the portal just in time to hear the Syls bickering. “I guess we’re lucky to have two such learned Elfs. “ The cleric then looked around the chamber and seeing the stairs, “Well, oh wise ones, shall we go up to where the owner of this place most likely will be or go down to where he most likely hides his evil creations?”

No, No I just need more practice.
I thought I had slipped in Jons comment so as not to mess with your post. Roger had reminded me I'd forgot to ask about payment so I tried to fit it in. I guess I misread the handshake part. The deal wasn't done until payment was finalized.
What's great about these stories is the chance to edit before the GM posts. So do I need to do some more fix?

Just finished Brom's update. I've got most of what he wanted in past posts. So.... I'll need to add the return of Ash and Jessy sending a comm of the case burying pictures. I can then have Ash pickup Tess and then zip her and Jessy to the caves. He can take the nerds too if we plan to put them in the caves too.
Ash then returns to the Roc.
Sound about right?

Why do I get the feeling this falls into the catigory:

As for the Fung Shui I just guessed that was the direction Reralae was implying when was talking about the room.

Badger turned to the Captain, "We have a deal then. Be at Diviner's Gulch at 2 am. There'a a clearing at the bottom, we will meet you there. Keep the running lights to a min, them press dogs can sniff out a story and we don't want any spectators. Don't be late."
Before Jon could answer Tess piped in, “Well, Capt’n, shall we? Lotsa preps to make. Good evenin’, sir,” she nodded her head at Badger.
“We’re nearly ready but there be got one last item.. “ Jon turned smiling to Badger, “ I know that Miss Angela would be better at ask’n this but we could use half the fare now ..we need ta pay off our docking fee…. top off ….and we sure need to pick up some provisions on our way back to Destiny…..you can have your men pay us the last half when we get Miss Lilianna to her wedding.”
Jon waited, they really needed some money.
(Assuming Badger pays us after a bit of verbal grief.)
Jon accepted the payment, “Sheh Sheh.”
With that Jon motioned everyone toward the door.

Topic: Destiny Flight - QnA
Subject: Easier..............
Well knowing the planner is female then Jon would figure t0 bunk her and the "Pricess" together so they can keep planning. Putting the three guys together.
As for Catie's room I'd have figured that room 8 is the only real open room. Tess wanted a room for the veggies and that would have been the smaller room #10 after Angela took the storage room. So let's just work around that idea and Catie can still use her Fung Shui to validate it as an Auspious room for her.
So to figure the Kua Number use the following as a guide:
Kua number calculations for a female born in 1998:
Add the last two digits of the year of birth: 9 + 8 = 17.
Bring it to a single digit number: 1 + 7 = 8.
Add number 5 to the single digit number: 5 + 8 = 13.
Bring it to a single digit: 1 + 3 = 4.
A female born in 1998 has the Kua number 4.
Kua number calculations for a male born in 1965:
Add the last two digits of the year of birth: 6 + 5 = 11.
Bring it to a single digit number: 1 + 1 = 2.
Deduct your single digit number from number 10 => 10 - 2 = 8.
A male born in 1965 has the Kua number 8.
ADDITIONAL FENG SHUI INFO:
In classical feng shui, you are either a East or a West group person. Once you know your Kua number, you can easily find out your feng shui group, here it is:
EAST Group: Kua Number 1, Kua Number 3, Kua Number 4, Kua Number 9
WEST Group: Kua Number 2, Kua Number 5, Kua Number 6, Kua Number 7, Kua Number 8.
Now you can find your lucky directions and use this info to improve the feng shui of your home or office. You can position your bed so that it faces one of your best directions, re-arrange your office so that your desk is facing a lucky direction, and, if you are looking to buy a new house, see if the direction of the front door is good for you!
Now go Google the rest,  .
Yes, I do have several books on Fung Shui and I will look up more for any of you if you'd like me to do it.

Topic: Destiny Flight - QnA
Subject: Sorry For The Slows...............
I guess I'm holding things up, sorry. With this four day weekend I thought I'd have plenty of time. BUT I forgot about how family and shopping goes on. We even put up the Christmas trees last night. After 40 years of collecting ornimants it do take a bit.
So I'll really try to get some things up today. I need to finish with Badger, Roger reminded me we haven't talked payment yet. I have to read back on whether the either the two are female. Jon is already figuring where to put folks and he isn't planning to put any in the crew area even if one of those rooms are open. The "Pricess" may have her own room and the others share or some sleep in the cargo bay.
Then we'll start to head back so Tess can get her comm from Grace and there will be some general talk about the fare.
Sounds like Catie is planning to put in a little Feng Shui in her room plan. Maybe a relationship between Kua numbers and locations. We'd have to figure the birth year of each crew member. I hadn't thought of that too much before but it would makes sence. I may be writing about Feng Shui symboles that are found around the ship now. I'd think Jon would put up the water ones for money and Tess putting the ones for for luck.
I'll see what I can get written tonight.
