    Maybe! But no pressure to devote those points now.

    Also, Mages in Warcraft have access to the Tongues spell to speak all languages, so you might not need to learn those, if you play your cards right.

    Meanwhile, I have access to Curse of Tongues, to make his speech even slower and more confusing.

    That seems unproductive.

    But bonus points for Marion identifying his mangled sentence structure pattern!

    The chiefs invitation to the alcohol tasting has been accepted.
    I didn't expect everyone to come to the town hall but it was fun saying "Good news everyone" to the rest of the party.

    Also I'll have a response to the dream sequence up soon.

    Excellent. Yield to all temptations. :)

    Also, @BananaPhone - did Marion take the intellect potion Mor’Lag offered her earlier on? Just so I know if it’s on your person for no reason at all.

    A clarifier: did she accept the potion as given, and possesses it on her person?

    I think you mentioned that their inn/tavern was closest to this great hall, right?

    Yes; their ale house (also an inn) is adjacent to the village square, as is the village hall! And the other sites I mentioned are not that far. Either.

    Ahaha. Needs an umbrella spell!

    Sounds like the group is planning to migrate over to the tavern with a minimum time in the rain?

    EDIT: In the future, you could probably grind down a single 7pp rank of variable to 1 or 2 pp with enough stacked casting drawbacks to make a "petty magic" power, useful only for doing things like Control Environment (Keep the rain off me), or Transmute (my torn muddle clothes into pristine new even more stylish clothes). Normally drawback stacking in games like this is wildly discouraged, but I'd allow it for a vain arcane user for a purpose so narrowly defined. Just a thought!

    Now that you mention it, Isaera does have some "cantrips" in her spell array. She might be able to create a little umbrella of weak force or something that repels the water!

    Oh, it seems you had it covered already and we just both forgot! Haha! Yes, I specifically endorse this kind of petty, showy magic for a mage. It's what separates you from the animals.

    Given that in Blood Elven towns you'll see animated objects like brooms sweeping the floors on their own etc, the elf using magic to make her life easier with these types of conveniences makes perfect sense.

    I don't know if Jakk'ari has been dismissed by the chief but if he has I would like to strike up a conversation with the other orc in the room.

    Dismissed? Oh, no; he’s the chief’s best friend now. They’re going upstairs to gamble and drink and jaw with other rural luminaries.

    I’ll describe such soon, but I was giving a window for anyone to object or offer alternatives to the loose “let’s share a room and keep watch” plan. New post up in a couple hours.

    I'm not so sure about sharing rooms and keeping watch... if it was a typical fantasy inn, or a place like in Theramore, I'd assume there's locks on the door or something.

    Here? I'm not so sure...

    Ahaha, Marion’s sarcasm explosion was hilarious.

    Poor Balandar! He only said “hired hands” because that’s how Isaera referred to herself at the others collectively. But like I said before, this is an excellent time for party friction and misunderstanding and prejudgement to be smoothed and resolved later. So I’m here for it.

    She might develop a couple of new curses now: "Curse of Withered Genitals" and "Curse of Barrenness". Increased Duration (Permanent).

    I do think the exchange was quite funny.

    But honestly, I don't think I had meant anything disrespectful to anyone's characters. As far as I am concerned, everyone here is a 'helping hand'.

    Don't like being referred that way? Maybe you shouldn't have taken the job. LOL

    I don't mind OOC . I thought it was kinda funny that Mar's was going to go in there and be susceptible to her 'Flirt' quirk, only to get offended at being thought of as hired help and so indirectly insulting everyone present and then leaving lol. It was like a 180 mood swing and intentions within 5 seconds.
