The ??'s are a note that the item has not been identified, or appraised, or inspected with a reasonable amount of light or time. The orbs unfortunately don't give that much light... I can however make a penalized search check for the inspection if you prefer.. remember low light penalties. You might want to light a torch?

Longshadow is recovering, Zonk is her caretaker, and while they would like to come back in a ew months, now is just not an ption fro what I gather.

I have offered both Zonk and Longshadow a place here should they choose to return. They obviously created two wonderful characters once, and can do so again to rejoin us with my blessings.

Topic: Forgotten Realms: The Unsung Heroes
Subject: Taking the liberty of searching for Linnix and Aelistae.


Search results for Downstairs Duo:
(I’m making the rolls seeing as you’ll need to search to get out...)

While looking for a means of escape, Aelistae and Linnix find the following:

Webbing which leads up the north-west corner of the chamber to the ceiling…
Webbing covering most of the ceiling...
Webbing covering most of the floor...
Webs webs and more webs..

Aelistae with her darkvision picks out a closed door on the western wall, covered by a thick layer of webbing. Upon a closer look, she finds stuck in the webbing is the long dead remains of some poor adventurer of the past. His backpack however, though covered by webs, lies undisturbed on the floor.

Backpack contents:
Long rotten trail rations
Spoiled Waterskin
Moldy Cheese
Moldy Bread
Empty leather-bound book with ‘Adventure Log’ etched into the surface.
inkpen
ink vial
Money pouch containing 12 gold pieces, 51 silver pieces, and 11 copper pieces.
Crossbow bolt case with 8 bolts and 2 yellow tipped rune inscribed bolts
Potion case holding 4 potions. 2 light blue, 1 black, and 1 green.

Linnix, though she can hardly see, manages to trip over the body of a past victim as well. Landing beside the slain warrior, she notices his chain mail shirt is still particularly in good order, as is his short sword. And of course, he wouldn't be needing the money pouch which lay by his side.

~Presuming she'd at least take the money pouch~
the pouch contains
50 gp
10 silver
1 copper
and a small opal.

If that's the crystal they wanted then yeah we'll give it to them to coplete the mission..

AS for Identifying the new magical items... Take it out of the Party Treasure and Emmerus wil pay the difference of the 200gp required from his own share.

As for items.. I realize I'm carrying the flail... but my weapon prof is in mace... So... Emmerus will put the flail back into party items.. and hopefully be able to use the mace whenever we know what it is.

Once the items are all idetified.. we can go from there as to who can use what and what we can sell..

Subject: More forks than a Kings table.


Whip turns to Nebulos and shakes his head. “Fine, but you better hope the uni’s still around when we come back. I hate letting good opportunities go to waste.”

Under the veil of the invisibility sphere, the trio moves quietly about the clearing, circumventing the unicorn for the time being. The magnificent creature turns to regard the area where the three are, and for a moment it looks like he’s looking directly at you before turning away.

The trio follow the path out of the clearing, trying to make sense of where the laughter of the pixie pair is coming from. The path takes them to a T-section of the woods. The laughter seems to be coming from the left, but the right path leads about 30 feet to another small clearing, where an elegant white fountain lies sparkling in the sun, with crystalline waters flowing into the basin. It would require a closer look to glean any further information.

Scarlet nudges you to the left, to continue with your mission, and Whip of course wants to check out the shiny fountain, but turns to Nebulos for the tie breaker… it seemed to be becoming a habit.

Subject: Meanwhile -Upstairs Part 2


~1

Loriel was in a precarious situation. She wanted so eagerly to tend to Moonshadow’s pain, but knew also that to lower her guard was to invite disaster. Her elvish heart burned to fell her racial enemy, (read: Not favoured enemy just flavor text :p) but Moonshadow’s whimper tore her mind in two. The decision was made not by the ranger, but by Artanis, who with a hand on her shoulder moved past the ranger directly in front of the orcish trio.

"Help Moonshadow! And stay back!"

Artanis struck a defensive position, and prepared to bide her companions time.

Xaris swallowed hard the fear that had been welling in his throat as he looked over the massive—to him at least—blade that swung before his face. Mustering what courage he could, he moved to jump past the blade, but found his jump uneven, and the blade swung back to land a bloody blow across his trailing left leg. (-5 hp Xaris 51/60 HP). The gnomish warrior could only shrug off and grit his teeth through the pain however, for others needed his help.

Kas, seeing the battles raging both below, and behind her, had to make a decision Watching the spider sink it’s teeth into Aelistae had decided her course of action, and she looked for a way to get down safely. (spending round making search/spot checks)

Loriel, thankful for the assistance, moves over to Moonshadow who is still pawing at the spear haft through his cheek painfully. Steeling her own heart against the pai she’ll likely inflict on her companion, she offers consoling words as she takes the shaft in one hand, and braces the wolf’s torn cheek with the other. In the span of two heart beats she prays quietly, and on the third, she gives the shaft a twist and a pull, causing Moonshadow to growl In pain as the shaft is pulled half way through. (-1hp moonshadow Moonshadow 15/33hp)

The orcs scrambled against Artanis, who placed herself before Moonshadow trying to protect the injured wolf, and Loriel who was tending it. With crude falchions of iron and steel the orcs swarmed Artanis, hoping to cut down the ignorant half breed who would stand in their way.

Orc1Orc2
Art - Orc3
MS
Loriel-Xar
Blade
Kas
HOLE

The orcish blades fell upon the defending Artanis, who struggled with so many attackers at once. Two of the orcish blades pierced her defenses, and her skin drawing lines of red across her otherwise clear skin. (-9 / -6) (Artanis 29/43hp) the third orc’s weapon would find no flesh to bite into, only leather as Artanis’ armor took the brunt of the blow.
~2

Kas had determined that while climbing down the webbing which was now evident about 10’ down from the top of the hole was a possibility; getting caught in the web would do no-one any good, and so instead set about joining the battle against the orcs as she had no rope to try and tie off (no rope on your character sheet)
With resolved steel, Kas waited for Xaris to move forward and engage the enemy before jumping past the swinging blade herself. Perhaps it was the weight of her armor, the exhaustion of hard travel, or the short time of recovering after sustaining such wounds earlier in the day, but Kasenarrion’s jump went terribly wrong. Her step was short, her jump almost nonexistent, and the scytheblade came crashing directly into her as she tried to pass. The blade sank deep into her side, crushing her against the side wall as the blades mechanism tried to push the blade up and through her. The blade was deep in the warriors belly, blood and sinew pooling in jagged rivules from her body. Kas screamed in agony, fighting against the pain and darkness which crept at the edge of her vision. (-12HP (Kas 13/31hp)
If any small consolation could be asked however, the scythe blade no longer swings, the mechanism grinding against Kasenarrions weight which trpas the blade in place along with her crumpled form in the middle of the hall way.

Seeing the woman fall, the orc’s laugh and call out in their guttural tongue. “Ha! Look Meat kabob!”

Xaris had moved forward, his anger almost at a boiling point. With his gnomish sized greatsword the barbarian attacked the orc before him (orc3) the orc, couldn’t help but laugh at the diminuative warrior. “Awww how cuuuuuute ^.^!” he teased, sticking out his tongue between crude and uneven tusks, before his head lolled from his shoulders, showering everyone in a five foot radius in orcish blood as the severed head rolled to the floor, his face still frozen in a state of ironic joviality.” (Way to go. Critical hit, 99 on the crit chat and max damage!)

Artanis, inspired by the sudden appearance of Xaris who now stood at her side, took the battle from the defensive to the offensive. With her bastard-sword at the ready, she took to Orc1 with a vengeance, her swordsmanship unquestioned as she deftly ran the orc through, his sputtering final words lost amidst the blood that filled his lungs. (no match for you either it seems!)

Loriel could not spare a look a the battle which ensued around her, for she was concentrating on Moonshadow, though Kasennarion’s crumpled form directly behind her
Was something of a distraction. With a grimace, she yanked the spear shaft clear through Moonshadow’s cheek, blood and saliva flowing freely through the side of the wolf’s mouth. (-1hp MS –Moonshadow 14/33hp) Free from the burdensome sear half, Moonshadow barked a defiant bark at the remaining Orc. The tide having turned, the Orc turned to flee, but not before calling out in Orcish. “Traask! Traask!”.

Between and Artanis and Xaris however, the orc didn’t manage to get two paces before being cut down.

~3
The hallways clear, and quiet for the time being, the companions turned to help the severely wounded Kasenarrion from the scythe blade, which now hung still coated in mixed blood. She would need some first aid to prevent her from bleeding further, but at least she was free.

Subject: Down below~Part 2


~1

In the sunken prison of rubble and web lined rock Linnix and Aelistae were locked in battle with one of the Spider-Queen’s minions of damnation. As Linnix stepped back, Aelistae stepped forward, and each prepared to fight to the last.

Linnix hurled her small dagger at the monstrous spider, the blade hurling end over end, but bouncing harmlessy off its bulbous form hilt first to clatter on the floor beneath its mass.

Aelistae too had brought her exotic weapon of elvish creation to bare, but could find no luck in her first assault of the spider, for it’s mandibles were hard as steel, and it bent low, parrying the sweep fo its underside with its great maw.

In response, the spider lunged forward towards Aelistae as she brought her own blade back across ready for another swing, The spider’s razor sharp pincers pierced the priestesses chain, and she could feel the burning sensation sent through her blood as poison was injected into her system. Thankfully however her drinking of the antitoxin prevented the potent poison from taking effect. The blood loss however, would not be prevented. (Aelistae 9/30hp)

~2

Linnix knew her priestly friend was not going to last much longer, even her goddess wouldn’t be able to save her should that spider get a hold of her again she feared. Trusting in her crossbow, which had miraculously felled a foe in a single bolt only hours before, she hastily loaded a bolt and sent it flying at the spider. The bolt, unlike the dagger had no elliptical spin, no weight differentials to work against its trajectory. It sailed straight and true, landing amongst the many eyes which gazed hungrily at the pair. (-4hp)
The spider let out not a wail, for it contained no voice box but reared up against the corner mass of webbing in pain.

Aelistae, hoping to catch the beast off guard, hacked again at the beast, hoping to find a vantage point in which to sink her blade. That point was at the base of one of the spider’s many legs, With a silent slice, its leg fell from the body, leaving a grin of satisfaction on the drow’s lips. (-11hp)

The spider reared further, climbing the mass of webs which spanned the corner of the room, hoping to flee from the pair which had so quickly turned the tide. Aelistae would have none of it though; the spider would not return to possibly gain favor from Lloth to kill and feed another day, and with a plunge of her Court blade, toppled the spider where it lay, it’s massive form crumbling to the floor on its back, where it’s legs outstretched in its death throes, before curling to rest against its underbelly. (AoO -6hp)

~3

Now, left alone in the room, without the hassle of hungry spiders about them, the duo was free to search for a means to escape.

Subject: Three hundred and treasure...


the three hundred should have been paid for as folows.

Emmy -75gp
Isilifeline-50
Arys-75gp
Cdnflirt-50 (She was there for that adventure and each of our characters started with at least 50gp in assorted coin)
-50 from party treasure

That's 300gold...

SilentOne and I have agreed to pay the extra..

Aliira has no material wealth, and Derry wasn't involved with the ransoming.. (nor does he have any extra money to spare.



~~~~
As for Treasure..
I say divy up the party treasure amongst the players who participated in the adventure (money only) and include the 'party fund' as an extra player. That share will cover all party expenses, inn stays, (potential future ransoms and what not)

ALiira may (and this is up to Ginafae decide to simply put her share into the party fund and be happy so long as she is able to have all her necessities taken care of. (Ie some 5gp armor or a potion now and then isn't going to break anyone's bank and she's a valued member of the party. But her character concept as described by herself wouldn't have much use for currency.

Cdnflirt wasn't there for this last adventure, so while she wouldn't get a cut from that bounty... don't forget her from the previous one! (our mage needs some lovin too!)

As always all items should be identified if deemed magical by cdnflirts or Derry's character (our resident magic users) Then discussed here in q/a or in early prechat sessions.

Shiny?

Katriana feels the weight of the coin purse in her paws, it is heavier than anything she has ever carried in almost 10 years. Once, when she was younger and foolish, she had 'appropriated' a marble bust of a mayor that weight about the same as this bag of coin, but that had been many moons ago.

"This is a most generous offering. I would have your name stranger. I am Katriana Felinar, Warder of the (DM insert commonly known Paladin/ knightly order of Ragnarok/ Good aligned Pantheon here.) On behalf of the fallen I most graciously accept your gift, and swear to see it go to the purpose in which it was given in faith."

Katriana carefully ties the money pouch to her belt, and bows humbly towards Lheriel.

Katriana turns to another strange traveler aboard the voyage a look o utter disbeli on her face.

"To think such unfettered kindness and generosity still abounds in this world touches me greatly, but surely no greater than she who will live again by your aid. I have only seen the rite performed a select few time on those worthy enough to be granted life anew, but the component.. a diamond of some value is required. As far as I know from what an old warpriest said, the diamond had to be of the purest grade, worth over 5,000 crowns at least. It is a hefty price for any man I'd wager, but the loss of gold will surely weigh volumes on the scales of your life for your kindness here."

She lets him mull that over a moment; a look of hope on her face.
