What that guy said! Just glad you made it to the party!

All character sheets have been sent.  I'm working on my post now.

Please remember - in general, your posts should meet the minimum requirment of 3-5 short paragraphs.  Not everyone will churn out Eol Fefalas, breebles, alovet level novellas eevry single time, and that's fine.  But keep in mind that a big attraction to play by post games is the collaborative storytelling aspect.  For that to work, we need to pretty much always be reading about your characters's thoughts, emotions, musings, etc.  

Thanks.

This is just the warm-up, everyone's just dippin' those toesies in. Getting cozy. I can just FEEL IT.

That you have Seleniniel and not that quirky runemaster. His internal dialog would be QUITE voluminous 

Oh gods! Can you imagine? The stuff that runemaster says aloud is mindboggling enough, if we got to hear what was actually running through his head it'd be madness inducing....

...Do it!

Arathea is uninjured after the fight; the tiny scratch she took came out of the temporary hit points bestowed by Rosariel's aid spell.

Mae'rel is moderately injured after healing herself once.  She has used one level one spell, as well as her bonus cure light wounds.

Rosariel has used one level two spell.

Seleliniel has used two level one spells.

No one else is injured.

Amazing, the growth appears to be exponential rather than linear. This amount of protein could revolutionize our subsurface agriculture. I wonder if the macronutrient structure is consistent with other livestock. Seems low in fat, but maybe that's because this originated from a calf muscle. I imagine the loin would yield a better caloric content with balanced fatty tissues. The only real issue is the decay rate and the odor. Surely that is manageable. What we really need is a longer term and larger sample size. Gods I hope we encounter more... There remains the minor issue of potential toxicity... I bet Nor could cleanse it, but he seems uninterested.. Must be the smell. Still... there must be some way...

He looks around, back to the meat... hesitates for a moment. Better safe than sorry. Removes a small leather case, unrolls it, chooses a suitable nib, affixes it to the barrel and lightly dips it into a transparent inkwell that shows its deep indigo contents, interspersed with small sparkling reflections--like the first stars emerging in the early hours of night. He looks around again, turns away from the firelight, his back to the rest of the group. After a few days of protestation, they have largely left him in peace to conduct his nightly studies, but he has learned, to his chagrin, that not all on this journey share his appreciation for science. He pulls up his left shirt sleeve, carefully traces a small rune on his upper forearm, returns his implements to their case. Rests his right index and middle fingers on the still-drying tattoo, closes his eyes for a moment, then open again. That should at least mitigate the possible effects.

*licks it*

That is horrible, Alan.

You should write that novel.  Even if it does make Gladd feel more like a necromancer.

I got sucked into Gladd's head while Olan posted!

Suck it owl bear. Olan unless you're planning another near term prompt I may cook up a little flavor post tonight, not the least of which to address some cowardly behavior by our sneakthief 

I want to give everyone a chance to respond to the battle, so I'll take a little time before I post.

First fight in the baaaaaaaaaag! Easy peasy lemonade squeezy.

I should have my post up by tomorrow night! Got a little busy tonight and also feeling a tiny bit poopy, but I'll be ready to get going tomorrow.

OOC in case others are able to knock theirs out before me: Rosariel will encourage the group to seek out the owlbear's cave and eradiate the unnatural creatures. They f*** up the ecosystem, lads. The cave/nest should be nearby so we won't be veering too far off course.

Do with that info what you will.

P.S. They taste like chicken

Take that, I get the cool finishing the monster off scene  

Neoptism at it's finest, I see.

(jk jk jk)

I get free cookies and you don't, hehehehe >:3

My mom moved to Alaska to pursue her dreams, abandoning me at the tender age of 26! What kind of a woman would do something like that to a literal baby?!

So no. Esther. I don't get free cookies unless my roommate makes them and they're also delicious.

But I DID just buy my girlfriend about 20lbs of snackies. So at least someone is getting free goodies.

.... Sorry I blacked out. What were we talking about about?
