AVB - Ultimate Destiny

[planswalker]

Rizban, Elrihm, mrcarter11 or Dm only. All others will meet the taffy monster.

The three of you arrive in town, and Mord finds a cheap hostel for 3 copper a night called "Highway Robbery".

[mrcarter11]

Does my Gather Info reveal anyplace else of interest?
As well, with the new XP, did we level? Or are we close?

[planswalker]

I missed it. copy/paste the roll numbers here.

[mrcarter11]

Gather Info
(1d20+4)[20]
And so do I have enough to XP to level, or am I still level 6?

[planswalker]

what does Myth-weavers say when you put in your xp gains?

You find a place called Restful Haven for 1 silver a night.

[mrcarter11]

Isten will first speak to Mord about staying at Restful Haven. and then will proceed to go there if Mord agrees.

Um,, I'll be honest, I've done a lot of PbP, never leveled up before. Myth has three XP related blanks, and I don't honestly know what they all mean. I'm not sure what my XP was before I leveled, or if it is just the 3800 that I just got. Nor do I know how much I need to level.

[planswalker]

put the xp you gain in the xp change blank. It is automatically added to your xp. that's 2,800 for the pvp and 3,800 for the dungeon.

[mrcarter11]

Alright thanks.. It says my next level is at 10k, which seems high, but in any case, that means I'm 3400 XP away.. And is Mord offline

[Elrihm]

Your character starts out at 15000, and the next lvl is 21000.

Mord agrees to stay at the Restful Haven, it seems the better option, and goes in to secure two rooms near each other. When he comes out, he addresses Isten

"I'm gonna go get settled in and take care of some business out in the city. Feel free to come by to talk business or otherwise."

After a quick shake, Mord goes into his room, and continues in his private thread.

[planswalker]

you should have your current xp set to 15000, then type 2800 inot the xp change blank, then type in 3800

[mrcarter11]

Okay I did level then.. Moving on, plans can I continue in my personal thread as well, until I head back for the night?

"Well, we can talk business later, first thing, any ideas on what it is you want to do next?

Isten will first move into his new room and put on his new magical gear once that's done, he'll strike out on his own for a little tonight.

[Elrihm]

"Well, I'm currently doing a job, but once that's done, I wouldn't mind finding one with you. I'm going to go talk to my employer, and then I'll talk to you in the morning. Have a good night, Isten."

[mrcarter11]

"You too Mord, hope it goes well for you.

Isten will then do what is outlined in the post above. And continue in his personal thread from there.

[Elrihm]

"Isten you there?"

[mrcarter11]

"Yes Mord, I've recently returned. How was your business?

[Elrihm]

"Uneventful, unfortunately. I was wondering if you were ready to start earning some money. Do you have any idea about what we could do? There have to be more ruins around, or people who need jobs done. I guess it depends on what you're comfortable doing."


BTW, its morning for me, if not, this needs to wait until you sleep.

[mrcarter11]

"Well perhaps tomorrow you can look and try to find us a job or two. My abilities are a little of everything, I can handle most things in a passive manner. I've got two appointments for tomorrow, but after that, I'll be free. I'm gonna attempt to gain employment in the city. Come to think of it, exploring ruins does seem to go okay for me. What are you good at?

It's 11pm here. I got a sick girlfriend though, who I'm taking care off. And for the past 2 hours, I've just been building a class list for my houserules.

[Elrihm]

No, I mean, for my character it's tomorrow morning. That conversation will happen after you sleep I guess. I'll be here when it's morning.

[mrcarter11]

Well I did say in my private thread, I'd get there and sleep. So consider this morning, which means I'm gonna run. Isten has an appointment at 11.

[mrcarter11]

Isten wakes in the morning after a good nights sleep and hurries off to his own appointment in the morning, within his own thread. OOC: Please post in my thread what happens when he gets there for the first one.

[Elrihm]

"I've been fairly well Isten, not doing to much other than translating old tomes. I'm sorry to hear you took sick. What's brought you by, news of a ruin that needs plundering?"

[mrcarter11]

"Not quite. I took up a normal job, however it hasn't started just yet. Thought I'd look up my friend and see how he was doing. Know of any good adventures we could go on?

[Elrihm]

"Yeah, I've got myself a fairly normal job as well. Hmm, adventures...well, there is an old tomb outside of the city that I haven't explored, and there's always the royal tombs. That's all that comes to mind though."

[mrcarter11]

"Whatever your up for friend. I'm working at the university by the way.

[Elrihm]

"Yeah, so am I. I managed to find someone who needed my linguistic skills there. Why don't we start exploring that tomb outside of the city tomorrow? I need to take care of something today."

[mrcarter11]

"Sound fine with Me. Are we still neighbors down at the hostel?

[Elrihm]

"Sorry, never mind. We can go immediately if you'd like. I forgot I already took care of my business. And yes, we still live next to each other. Haven't really had much time to chat lately, though. Is there anything you need to do before we go?"

If not, Mord will lead the way to the other tomb that he heard about when he gathered information some time ago.

[planswalker]

not the one you already went to?

[Elrihm]

"Well, I do know of another, one that I managed to get into a fair amount of trouble in, we could go there. I certainly wouldn't mind getting a little revenge on the brain who lives there. I know that there are a number of undead there, including a mummy and a brain who will try to cast dominate person on us."

[mrcarter11]

"If you mind giving some background knowledge, I'm up for revenge.

[Elrihm]

"Well, this is a tomb with three corridors, of which I only explored one. In there I found 3 skeletons, 3 zombies, 2 allips (ghosts), a mummy, and the brain who dominated me for a time. The brain was shrouded in darkness by a magical item that I destroyed. Be warned, if you get caught in the dominate, there is nothing you can do to stop it."

[mrcarter11]

"That does indeed sound quite bad. Are you sure you'd like to go back?

[Elrihm]

"I certainly wouldn't mind. I did some research after, and the spell protection from evil can temporarily disrupt the effects of dominate person. Thus, if we cast that before, and kill him, there should be no fear of domination. I am more worried about the mummy at this point. If you feel like we can kill such a creature, then I say let us go."

[mrcarter11]

"I've never fought such a beast. Are the difficult to kill?

[Elrihm]

Knowledge religion on mummies in particular

[roll0]

[Rizban]

You learn that mummies are always prepared to make your ouchies feel better. That why they always have so many bandages. :smalltongue:

[Elrihm]

"Well then, my religion tutor always was a bit of a prankster. I think that we can take him though, given that we are immune to the physical touch of evil creatures for the duration of my protection spell. I'm ready to head out if you are."

[Rizban]

That wasn't really your result... I just couldn't resist the bad pun. :smallbiggrin:

[Elrihm]

LOL, I didn't even notice it was you Rizban. Man am I on auto tonight.

[mrcarter11]

"I can protect myself some and your spell should do wonders.


I do wish to keep going, but I'm asking the DM's to be nice, I've had like 12 rum and cokes and I'm feeling a little out of it.

[Elrihm]

Oh no. Oh well, if I die, no biggee.


Mord will lead the way back to the tomb that he had previously explored.

[mrcarter11]

Isten will follow.

[planswalker]

The entrance to the tomb is dark and gloomy.

[Elrihm]

Mord will pause, and cast darkvision on his companion, and alter himself to be a deep dwarf with darkvision out to 90, cast fly on himself, and then proceed down the same tunnel as before, taking the same route as before.

"Let me scout, I have greater range of my darkvision."

[planswalker]

He finds 5 skeletons waiting in the dark.

[mrcarter11]

Isten puts up his own personal armor
7 points for 7 armor.

[Elrihm]

Mord will cast extended protection from evil on both himself and his companion, and then fly in until he can catch all five skeletons in a 15 foot blast.

Acid Breath
Reflex DC 19

Damage
[roll0]

[planswalker]

He is unable to catch more than three of them in any one blast. Those three, though, die.

[Elrihm]

I'm guessing it's Isten's turn in the surprise round, and then we'll roll initiative?

[planswalker]

no, you two just roll for initiative.

[Elrihm]

Initiative
[roll0]

[mrcarter11]

Sorry for delays.. My work schedule is funky.
[roll0]

[Rizban]

As a DM, I've started just rolling initiative for all my PCs so that we don't spend a whole day just waiting on that. They seem to like it. I don't know if you'd want to do that or not, but I just thought I'd throw the option out there to let PW do it for you when combat starts.

[mrcarter11]

It's fine with Me..

[planswalker]

One of the skeletons goes first, walks up to Mord with the greataxe it has in hand, and by some twist of incredible unluck, swings it at just the wrong angle and Mord's innards take a nasty [roll0]

then it is Isten's then mord's turn.

[Elrihm]

I don't suppose I'd be able to abrupt jaunt out of the way, since I could see it coming?

[mrcarter11]

Isten drops back 15 feet and summons a construct. The thing appears with large muscles and an extra pair of arms. Isten directs it forward to attack the nearest enemy.


7 points for Muscles and Extra Attack.

Attack nearest enemy
Attack 1 [roll0] Damage [roll1]
Attack 2 [roll2] Damage [roll3]

[planswalker]

if you want to do that sort of thing, you'll have to tell me "if I am attacked, I'll use abrupt jaunt to get out of the way".

waiting until after I resolve the attack doesn't work, as you'd have to do the abrupt jaunt before the action actually resolves.

edit:

oh yeah, and that pulverizes the skeleton.

75 xp each.

[Elrihm]

If combat is over, mord will activate his healing belt, until full or almost so, and then proceed down the hall.

[Elrihm]

*grumble*forum roller*grumble*

[roll0]
[roll1]
[roll2]

[planswalker]

Three uses later, he's back full.

Further down the hall, he sees five zombies. They seem odd, somehow.

[Elrihm]

Mord won't give them time to do anything odd, although he will try to identify anything strange about them.

Knowledge religion

[roll0]

Mord will then cast evards tentacles in a 20 foot radius emanating from the center of their group.

Grapple
[roll1]

Damage
[roll2]

[Rizban]

Ouch... two bad rolls where they were most needed.

[Elrihm]

I know, the RNG gods have not been kind to me. Just got crit'ed on by a greataxe...

[planswalker]

He fails to identify what's odd about them.

Two of them resist the grapple, and none take any damage.

roll for initiative.

[Elrihm]

Activating nerveskitter

[roll0]

[Elrihm]

Hey, I'm gonna run away, I think. It was fun, but posting once a day, when that's rolling initiative isn't working for me. I think we're fine to run away, as they haven't seen us yet, and 3 of them are entangled. I also think zombies can't run, but I'm not sure. It was fun man, later.

[mrcarter11]

I was gonna ask what your schedule was. I'll be honest, I work 3rd shift, so I do have issues posting sometimes, past that, I had something personal on monday to attend to.. I'm sorry bout that though.

[Elrihm]

It's completely fine, I understand that you have your schedule, and that life happens. I generally post when I can, and rarely after twelve which is generally when you start. I'm not frustrated or anything, I just don't think this is working for me. Unfortunately I've already run away in my personal thread, but if your character needs anything, you know where to find mine.

[planswalker]

elrihm, no, you don't just get to poof from here. Your post in your personal thread is being ignored until you resolve this with mrcarter11. Until I hear from him that it's cool that you're ditching him even though he's meeting avb's minimum standards, you don't get to force the teamup away by posting in your private thread.

[Elrihm]

Ok, so let's resolve this. Mccarter, do you want to continue adventuring? I'd like to, but our schedules seem to be on an inverse. Can we make this work somehow? I usually go to bed around 1, or I try. I start posting around 12 and refresh the page throughout the day as I'm usually near my computer.


EDIT: You know what, it really doesn't matter to me that much. I can live with the way things are. I enjoy adventuring with Isten, and I can get over the posting rates. I'm fine to keep adventuring as long as mccarter wants to.

[mrcarter11]

If you wish to leave you can, I totally understand. I'll continue the team up as well though if you wish. I enjoy working with you. See, my best time to post is in the late AM. I generally go to work around 10 pm and get off around 6 am.. Then I can post some.. Then sleep. Around 9am to noon is my best post time.. After noon I generally grab my girlfriend and spend the day with her.

[Elrihm]

Alright, i think we can make that work, let's keep adventuring.

[Elrihm]

I think Isten still needs to roll up initiative right?

[planswalker]

indeed he does.

[mrcarter11]

Ah. Sorry, well [roll0]

If my AS is still around it moves forward and attack. If it isn't, another is summoned and sent to attack. Same features.

[planswalker]

Mord and isten both act before the zombies.

[mrcarter11]

Is my first construct still alive?

[planswalker]

it is not.

[mrcarter11]

Then a new one with the same features and point cost comes into being and moves forward to attack.

[planswalker]

since the manifesting time is 1 round, the construct will appear at the beginning of your next turn.

[Elrihm]

At the beginning of my round the tentacles grapple once again. He will then cast grease in front of the tentacles, so that if they escape they might trip. Reflex DC 17.

Grapple
[roll0]

Damage
[roll1]

[planswalker]

They are grappled, once more take no damage, and cannot move.

y'all's turns once more.

[mrcarter11]

El, what do you want to try and do with them. Plans can you roll my attack routine.

[Elrihm]

I dunno, I have them pretty well locked down, but they have DR, so my spell isn't going to kill them on it's own. We need strong damage on them, to overcome that.

While i decide what to do, rolling for my evards.

grapple
[roll0]

damage
[roll1]

DEAR GOD. Why does teh RNG hate me so much.

[planswalker]

well, I was gone all weekend, so I hope your waiting on me was with that knowledge. I'd rather not have to roll your attack routines for you if you're going to be able to post to ask me to.

especially when my sig says I'll be gone all weekend and be unable to do that.

Three of the zombies free themselves from the grapple and, with speed you've never seen in a zombie before, escape the radius of the spell and attack Mord.

They miss, fortunately.

[mrcarter11]

The construct attempts to attack the nearest enemy
Not sure if I can full attack or not. So rolling for one and only use the first attack if I can't.

Attack 1
[roll0] [roll1]

Attack 2
[roll2] [roll3]

[Elrihm]

Keep in mind my protection from evil spell makes me immune to the touch of evil creatures.

Mord will five foot step back, and acid breath.

reflex dc 19
[roll0]

[planswalker]

no it doesn't Elrihm. Re-read the spell. All it does is provide you a +2 bonus to ac and saves, unless it's a summoned evil creature.

these are not summoned, so the +2 ac is all you get.

The construct takes a 5' step and two attacks later has destroyed one of the zombies. It seems harder to kill than it should have been.

[mrcarter11]

Well I'm done for the round.. Perhaps Mord can kill one as well.

[Elrihm]

Bugger. I didn't read the summoned part. That was my protection plan for the mummy too :smallfrown:. Did my acid breath do anything?

[planswalker]

oops, missed it.


Best you can do, you can only catch one of the two near zombies in it and bboth the far ones. The far ones seem to take full damage and be nearly dead, but the near one resisted the worst of the effect and all three seem to be healing unnaturally fast.

[Elrihm]

On my turn, I will cast web over the creatures.

Reflex dc 18

[planswalker]

did you dismiss the tentacles?

[Elrihm]

Sorry, I thought they all escaped them. No I didn't.

Grapple
[roll0]

damage
[roll1]

[Elrihm]

BTW, I thought zombies could only take one action per round, and I thought they couldn't run (well unless they charged, which would make sense). Still, I think I have yet to be right. Just little things I did with my IRL group that weren't entirely right I guess.

I would also believe magic zombies as an answer. :smalltongue:

[planswalker]

that's all true of normal zombies...

notice the part where I say they're far faster and more agile than they should be?

[Elrihm]

Ah, magic zombies. Or close enough anyways. thanks for clarifying that; well as much as you can.

[mrcarter11]

Are we waiting on Me to do another Full Attack?

If so
Attack [roll0] Damage [roll1]

Attack [roll2] Damage [roll3]

[planswalker]

You successfully tear apart another zombie, but the ones that are still up are regenerating their injuries very quickly.

The three in the tentacles are held fast in the grapple, and even take slight damage.

[Elrihm]

Does that represent their action?

[planswalker]

yes it does

[Elrihm]

Evard's tentacles again

grapple
[roll0]

[roll1]

Mord will also fling a fiery orb at one of the zombies.

ranged touch attack

[mrcarter11]

The construct goes at another zombie


Full Attack
Attack 1 [roll0] Damage [roll1]
Attack 2 [roll2] Damage [roll3]

[planswalker]

Between the two of you, all but one zombie dies. This one is caught in the tentacles and cannot reach you.

y'all's turns once more.

[Elrihm]

Evards tentacles

[mrcarter11]

Isten will send his beast forward again, to kill this last enemy.

Isten will send his beast forward again, to kill this last enemy.


Attack [roll0] Damage [roll1]

[planswalker]

The zombies are dead, and the two of you are 450 xp richer for it.

[Elrihm]

"That was quite the fight. I hope we're able to overcome the rest."

Mord will continue to travel down the hallway.

[planswalker]

Once more, he spies the mummy before the mummy spies him.

[Elrihm]

Mord whispers, "This is it", to Isten, and will wait for him to summon a construct, but before he attacks will hurl a burning orb into the mummy.

Ranged touch attack

[roll0]

Damage

[roll1]

[Elrihm]

If the mummy strikes at Mord, he will abrupt jaunt out of the way.

[mrcarter11]

Isten will send the construct forward to attack the mummy.

Attack [roll0] Damage [roll1]

[planswalker]

Seeing as mord's spell has a range of 40 feet, and he is 90 feet away, he will need to re-consider his actions.

[Elrihm]

:smalleek:

Good catch, I was sure it was a medium range.

Rather than doing that, Mord will cast evards tentacles after the construct has attacked, and move up thirty feet.

grapple

[roll0]

Damage

[roll1]

[planswalker]

The construct misses, but the mummy is grappled. It takes no damage, though.

[Elrihm]

Mord will close twenty more feet, and now fling an orb of fire at him. Mord is still ready to abrupt jaunt away from an attack by the mummy.

Ranged touch attack

[roll0]

Damage

[roll1]



Evards

Grapple
[roll2]

Damage
[roll3]

[planswalker]

Your orb hits and hurts him, the grapple this turn deals 3 damage.

[Elrihm]

Sorry, that orb was supposed to be +4, not +17. I guess I took my grapple from evards accidentally. Do you want me to reroll or just take the origional roll?

[planswalker]

We'll use the original roll.

Sadly, the two of you realize that the monster was faking it. In reality, the orb misses by a wide margin.

[mrcarter11]

Now near enough to take more fully. The construct attacks with both arms once more.

Attack [roll0] Damage [roll1]

Attack [roll2] Damage [roll3]

[planswalker]

YOur construct misses, and the mummy responds by attacking the construct. Luckily, it misses.

[Elrihm]

Mord will fling another fiery orb, hopefully not being tricked into believing it hits.

ranged touch attack

[Elrihm]

Rerolling evards damage

[mrcarter11]

That mean it's my turn again?

[planswalker]

yes it is.

Your orb misses once more. But it's closer this time.

The tentacles keep it grappled but do not harm it.

[mrcarter11]

Construct attacks once more. But Isten decides this enemy is rather pesky and so tosses a crystal out at the mummy as well.


Construct
Attack [roll0] Damage [roll1]

Attack [roll2] Damage [roll3]

Amethyst Burst

Damage [roll4] I set the crystal to go off behind the mummy thus avoiding my ally I hope. Reflex save DC 17 for half. Also 5 point cost.


You can't be serious.. Do dice gods just hate Me for some reason all the sudden.. What did I do wrong.

[planswalker]

Your atacks miss, but the crystal hits for full damage. If the damage was physical in nature, that's 2 damage. If it was energy- based, 7.

[planswalker]

Your atacks miss, but the crystal hits for full damage. If the damage was physical in nature, that's 2 damage. If it was energy- based, 7.

as the mummy is grappled, it cannot reach anyone to attack them.

[Elrihm]

Mord will contemplate his dwindling spell list, sigh, and fling another fiery orb, in the hopes that this one actually hits.

ranged touch attack

EDIT: I give up RNG, you win. No fiery orbs for me today.

[planswalker]

Well, your tentacles keep it from moving....

too bad about your fire.

[mrcarter11]

Isten throws out another crystal while his construct attacks once more.



Attack [roll0] Damage [roll1]

Attack [roll2] Damage [roll3]


Crystal

[roll4]

[planswalker]

After damage reduction, you deal a total of 24 damage. The thing is still grappled and unable to reach anyone to attack them.

[mrcarter11]

Construct attacks..


Attack [roll0] Damage [roll1]
Attack [roll2] Damage [roll3]

[planswalker]

With the next pair of blows, the mummy turns to dust.

450 xp

[Elrihm]

"Well, I'm almost out of spells for today. Do you think we can take this creature Isten? He is a caster, who can manipulate thoughts."

[mrcarter11]

"Well, I haven't used a lot of more own power yet.. However if you have, I conclude we should wait it out. Let both of us return to peak power. This enemy could be quite powerful and I rather us take it down at our best. Agreed?

[Elrihm]

"Something that we must consider is that the ruin might be filled with enemies once again. If you have most of your power unspent, I have faith in your abilities. When I came here last, I was as I am now, spent and undefended. Now though, my protections should keep us from his grasp, and your constructs should be able to end him swiftly. If you still want to turn back, we shall, but if you have most of your power unspent, then let us fell this beast."

If Isten responds that he still thinks they should rest, Mord will head back to town, and return on the morrow.

If Isten resonds that he wants to keep going, Mord will continue on.

[mrcarter11]

Isten will take the fellow adventurer's thoughts to heart, and decide to continue on this daring adventure. They continue down.

[Elrihm]

Huzzah! It's never too late for one more bad decision. I think we can take him, but i'd be prepared to run. :)

[planswalker]

As they continue on, the first signs they have of the allips is as the two of you pass over the floor and spectral limbs reach out of the floor. Isten is touched and has [roll0] wisdom drained.

roll for initiative and each of you needs to make a pair of will saves.

[Elrihm]

Initiative
[roll0]

Will save
[roll1]

*grumble*

[planswalker]

Mord is hypnotized for [roll0] rounds.

[Elrihm]

Ah, well. Life goes on. Or doesn't. GO GO ISTEN! Also, Wis drain ftl on touch attacks.

[mrcarter11]

Rolls
Ini [roll0]

Will [roll1]

[Elrihm]

I think you need to make another will save, Isten.

[planswalker]

Isten succeeded the first will save, but still needs to roll for his second one...

[mrcarter11]

Sorry scattered day,
[roll0]

[planswalker]

Isten is hypnotized for [roll0] rounds.

[planswalker]

Mord and Isten are each hypnotized and stare blankly at the two, listening to the mad babble.

They happen to approach closer to Isten than Mord and attack him six times before Mord regains himself. In that time, Isten takes [roll0] wisdom drain. If any of those rolls before the last one are enough to drop you to 0 wisdom, the remainder go to Mord.

[Elrihm]

Mord will see if that was enough to drop Isten before deciding what to do.

If it was, he will abrupt jaunt away 10 feet, then shadow jaunt 60, and then run 30 more. He will keep running until he gets back to the city.

If it wasn't, he will take other actions.

[mrcarter11]

Leaving Me to die? And yes it was enough by three points.

[Elrihm]

Sorry, I just reread the rules and realized you aren't actually dead! I thought ability going to 0 equaled death. And no, I won't abandon you, as long as you remain alive.

Mord takes different actions actually. He will abrupt jaunt back 10 feet, flee 30 more, and cast evards tentacles. It is his last card to play, and hopefully the allips will die before his friend.

[Elrihm]

Grapple

[roll0]

Damage

[roll1]

Percentile to hit

[roll2]

EDIT: Since it is a new round on the Allips turn as I lost initiative, I will abrupt jaunt if one of them attacks me.

[planswalker]

The allips, being incorporeal and therefore immune to grapples, are unaffected by the tentacles. Your unconscious ally, though, is. Having run away from them, they seem content to babble and make passing swipes at Isten which even when they his can do no further harm.

[Elrihm]

Mord will dispel the tentacles, and frown, while he contemplates his next actions.

[Elrihm]

It is apparent that Mord can do no more here. While he doesn't have anymore damaging spells for today, the allips seem unable to actually kill him, meaning the brain will probably enslave him.

Mord vows to not abandon his friend, but acknowledges that no more can be done today. He will leave, sleep, and memorize new spells, hopefully to track down his friend, and rescue him.

[planswalker]

Mord leaves, and it is a good thing for Isten that this night of absolute terror and madness is spent unconscious and unaware of the world around him.

[mrcarter11]

No action for Me.

[planswalker]

do you lock the door to your room when you leave it?

[Elrihm]

Out of context, that is hilarious.

[mrcarter11]

I'm confused.. What door?

[Elrihm]

Your room at the hostel in Aldhaven. Do you lock it?

[mrcarter11]

I'd assume so, yes.

[Elrihm]

Mord returns the next day, and after casting a few spells, one including summoning a horse, which goes up and pulls Isten out. Mord will then lash him to the horse, and return to town, where he finds a priest in the temple district to cast restoration.

[Elrihm]

If Mord makes it out of the dungeon safely and finds a priest, he will leave him there to recover after the expenses have been payed.

[planswalker]

[roll0] hours later, Mord has found a priest of Pelor who will do it. It will cost him 500 gold, paid up front. Once he does, the restoration is cast and Isten immediately wakes up.

[Elrihm]

Mord only has around a 100 gold on him, so he searches Isten for the remainder. If he can't find enough, he'll go pull some from a stash he carries elsewhere.

Once enough coin has been put together, Mord pays the priest.

Upon Isten's waking up, Mord says, "Goddamn ghosts, huh? That was a bit of a handful. Why don't we take a few days off, I know I don't have much of an urge to go back until I find some good ghost killing spell power."

[mrcarter11]

Isten once awake, will respond in following.

[spoiler] Yes that quite.. Curious. I'm not sure I liked it. My classes should be starting any day now though, so I'll likely be busy more than a few days every week.

[Elrihm]

"Perhaps we'll do this again. You know where I am, if you need any help. I think I'm ready to not wander around tombs for a bit."

I guess we're done here? It was fun. I'm gonna go look up some ghost killing spells before I attempt that again.

[mrcarter11]

Likely done yes. It was an entertaining ride. I look forward to duo adventures in the future,, Sound good?

[Elrihm]

Yup. I'll be more patient next time, promise. :smallwink:

[planswalker]

The questing earned each of you 500 xp

[Elrihm]

Hey, heard you were looking for me. I'm available.

[mrcarter11]

Yeah Isten needs good ol Mord as a character witness..

[Elrihm]

Sure, Mord wouldn't mind vouching for Isten. Just send my character a note telling him the day of the hearing, or something.

[mrcarter11]

I was hoping you wouldn't mind.. IG I need to have Isten tell Mord first,, Something about you needing to know before I go and do the paperwork.. So should we meet up here again, or in one of our own threads?

[Elrihm]

I'm fine with your character meeting up with mine here. I have different quarters now, and I forgot to tell anyone but other than that. I'll be here when you need me.

[mrcarter11]

I'll post in my thread that I go looking for you. And then plans can rule if I can find you.. In any case, if you don't mind answering,, How you been doing lately. Mord still lives, that's a good sign. Like what level 9 now?

[Elrihm]

No, I held back on questing for a while, to pursue some other, more monetary options. Has Isten been questing pretty hard to level up?

[mrcarter11]

Nope. Been doing RP work.. Trying to get another job actually. Think that's 2-4 total.. Getting cash together mostly.

[Elrihm]

Yeah, I hear that. Money makes most things happen in this game. I would like to start questing again, though I doubt I'm going to dive back into any more tombs. I think I might become a bounty hunter, or something. I dunno.

[planswalker]

Isten finds Mord while he's in his residence.

[mrcarter11]

Isten approaches his old friend.

"Mord! It is good seeing you old friend. How have you been, life treating you well I hope. I'll be quick, I came looking for some rather simple help.

[Elrihm]

Mord seems rather surprised his old friend managed to track him down, having rather abruptly left their hostel, but genuinely pleased to see Isten.

"Isten, friend. You look well. If there is something I could help with, you only have to ask. I'd be more than willing to help."

[mrcarter11]

"I've been meaning to stay in better contact with you. I don't know about you, but I don't have a surplus of allies in this city. The ones I do have, I'd like to keep close too. In any case, I'm trying to become a free man of the city. And was hoping you'd be a character witness, if your willing to sign some papers saying you will, then the paperwork can get moved along faster.

[Elrihm]

"Sure, no problem. I'll vouch for you. Just write down the hearing time, and I'll be there."

[mrcarter11]

"I'll let you know the date, as soon as I do. Currently I can't get a court date, since the paperwork isn't filled out. Thanks though.


For Plans

Assuming nothing else, Isten starts attempting to look for a place to stay. Simple living, nice area. One bedroom, is all.

[roll0]

[planswalker]

You find just such a place for rent for 1 silver a night, or 2 gold a month.

[mrcarter11]

Isten will drop by where he found Mord last time and attempt to see if he is home.

[Elrihm]

Mord is around, puttering about his home doing chores.

[mrcarter11]

"Hello Mord. Thought I'd stop in and tell you that the court date has been set for next week.

[Elrihm]

"Ok, I'll be sure to be there then. I hope everything goes well for you."

[mrcarter11]

Thanks, as do I. By the way, are you having any success finding work. I was thinking maybe the two of us could work together again sometime.

You mentioned bounty hunting? I'm up for that any day.

[Elrihm]

Well, yes. But the city guard won't release any kind of mercenary work for me, because I miiiiight have pissed someone off by being a smartass.

[mrcarter11]

To Riz and Elrihm

Isten stands before a judge on the court date he mentioned to both of you. The judge has now asked if anyone can vouch for Isten. And he was indicated the two of you.. So now you guys can take it away.

[Elrihm]

Sorry, I haven't checked the thread in a while.

"Yes, I am currently a freeman in the city, and I can vouch that he will be a productive member of society. We've been on adventures together, and seen a lot together, so I can vouch for his reliability."

[planswalker]

Hagan gives a very similar answer, including a comment about how he's one you can rely on in a scrape.

The judge seems satisfied with this and the rest of the hearing goes apace. Two hours later, Isten is proudly clutching a set of papers that authenticate his citizenship.
