I have submitted my post to the Game thread titled 'Flashback Delays Investigation' which after you read will give the Players & Lurkers (not the Characters) the reason why Brokkrok abruptly decides to refrain from casting the Detect Undead Spell and pursue the investigation.

As mentioned at the bottom of the post, some of the questions may only be answered by Almerin, but perhaps there is enough fodder to spark some role play between characters.

I am coming up on a busy week, so my posts may be limited depending on what transpires and how much time I have to respond to other player's characters and the Update from Almerin on Monday.

I'll go read asap, but first let me answer the Undead question.

In my games, I don't rule that undead sense that they're being detected, unless they have some form of anti-detection magic or ability. What I meant with the adventure going on if you cast this spell, is that if I were a character capable of casting such a spell, and it did end up showing me the existence of an undead threat, I would want to annihilate it as soon as possible.

I'm going to read your post now!

..... or understand the Undead Spell and how Brokkrok would react if he cast the spell (he would want to eliminate the evil the spell exposed).

But after much deliberation I figured that according to his History what I wrote was "in character" at the present time.

Thanks for the info!

I think you did well in having him return to the guesthouse for the reason you wrote. And the questions will make for some good roleplaying.

If any of you need answers to those questions, let me know via PM please.

Am enjoying this game and we have a good group of players!

I look forward to the answers that are forthcoming from my teammates answering those questions!

I have a quik question hammer, so Brokkrok already told the story as to how he got his braid, correct? That is the jist of one of your earlier posts that I'm getting, that he told us soon after we had arrived.

I had thought that your character had asked mine about the braid so he told the story (also telling Traubon that he would file a report with the Elders who make braid decisions telling them about Traubon and his heroics after battling alongside Traubon for a period of time).

Brokkrok has also given Traubon 20 Zesti Spores (definition also in my first post).

He just does not give an explanation to the group as to why he headed back to the Guesthouse so abruptly.

Actually, the manner in which I wrote about Traubon wondering about the beard was more of a self reflection, a thinking to himself. I actually didn't ask Brokkrok about the beard thing, but Traubon curiously wondered to himself about it. Sorry for any confusion : X

If I have overlooked this, I appologize but roughly ho many hours travel was it from Stone's Hollow to Sedostra?

It was about a day worth of travel.

what would make a good mushroom stew?????

..... Mushrooms ... of course!

aye, but what kind???

..... the chef so you get to decide what shrooms and other ingredients go into your special stew!

Your character being a rogue has probably gathered some fine specimens from the shroom fields already!

I know, just thinking in words
