[2012-02-19 13:56:21] DM: Righty oh.
[2012-02-19 13:56:33] DM: Adam/Erin/ChrisR might be a touch late.
[2012-02-19 13:56:53] Aleksei: NPCs them all simultaneously
[2012-02-19 13:56:53] DM: So in the interim...
[2012-02-19 13:57:00] Aleksei: carries on conversations with himself
[2012-02-19 13:58:13] DM: Y'all have defeated the dastardly mites that captured Svetlana and befriended a small kobold named MIkmek in the process.
[2012-02-19 13:59:19] DM: You have also recovered a idol of some sort, that Mikmek claims is his tribe's conduit to "Old Sharptooth".
[2012-02-19 13:59:40] » Trip joined the chat room.
[2012-02-19 13:59:49] Aleksei\Gaia: Which we're now going to take to the kobolds
[2012-02-19 13:59:51] Trip: test test
[2012-02-19 13:59:56] Aleksei\Gaia: And negotiate with them for an alliance
[2012-02-19 14:00:01] Bolgan: teeeeeeest
[2012-02-19 14:00:05] Aleksei\Gaia: So that we can all be friends
[2012-02-19 14:00:18] Trip: But then we can't use the kobolds for litterboxes.
[2012-02-19 14:00:51] DM: There's also a handful of other issues
[2012-02-19 14:01:53] Ilya: Such as?
[2012-02-19 14:03:23] DM: Oh, just a handful of other things you've left pending. Bokken wanted you to gather some berries that he could use to make healing potions. There were some other bandit issues. A bunch of wanted posters.
[2012-02-19 14:03:24] DM: etc...
[2012-02-19 14:03:30] DM: Not to mention continued mapping of the region.
[2012-02-19 14:05:19] DM: So.
[2012-02-19 14:05:26] DM: Given all of the options, what do you do next?
[2012-02-19 14:06:02] Ilya: Wait for Adam and Erin to show up so we can make a decision with the full party?
[2012-02-19 14:06:02] Ilya: '
[2012-02-19 14:06:07] DM: Oh yes, and I almost forgot. Before leaving the mite lair, there were some other things.
[2012-02-19 14:06:23] Ilya: things!
[2012-02-19 14:06:29] DM: Namely those piles of eggs. And yes. Yes you should.
[2012-02-19 14:06:38] Trip: We make an omelet.
[2012-02-19 14:06:40] Aleksei\Gaia: The eggs, right
[2012-02-19 14:06:42] Aleksei\Gaia: They were like
[2012-02-19 14:06:45] Aleksei\Gaia: Insect eggs
[2012-02-19 14:06:46] Aleksei\Gaia: Tick eggs
[2012-02-19 14:06:49] Aleksei\Gaia: We should burn them all
[2012-02-19 14:06:50] DM: Centipede.
[2012-02-19 14:06:51] Aleksei\Gaia: With fire
[2012-02-19 14:07:03] Ilya: i agree
[2012-02-19 14:07:10] Ilya: destroy them until they are destroyed
[2012-02-19 14:07:14] Aleksei\Gaia: We didn't level did we?
[2012-02-19 14:07:21] Ilya: no
[2012-02-19 14:07:28] Aleksei\Gaia: k.
[2012-02-19 14:07:30] Aleksei\Gaia: WITH FIRE
[2012-02-19 14:07:35] DM: I… have been thinking about this.
[2012-02-19 14:07:54] Aleksei\Gaia: Fire does not require thought
[2012-02-19 14:07:57] DM: In the interest of keeping things moving and avoiding random encounter frenzy, I might switch to the "fast" leveling track.
[2012-02-19 14:07:57] Aleksei\Gaia: That's why it's called fire
[2012-02-19 14:08:35] Ilya: i approve
[2012-02-19 14:08:46] Aleksei\Gaia: Fast is good.
[2012-02-19 14:08:54] Ilya: that changes the amount of xp to level right?
[2012-02-19 14:08:56] Ilya: and not
[2012-02-19 14:08:58] Aleksei\Gaia: Yes
[2012-02-19 14:08:59] Ilya: the amount you gain
[2012-02-19 14:09:01] Aleksei\Gaia: No
[2012-02-19 14:09:21] Bolgan: word
[2012-02-19 14:09:43] Ilya: so how much XP do we have?
[2012-02-19 14:09:50] Aleksei\Gaia: Fast is 13 encounters/lvl
[2012-02-19 14:09:53] Aleksei\Gaia: Medium is 20
[2012-02-19 14:09:54] DM: Yeah. Basically, the adventure is calibrated to use the standard leveling track. That however, assumes that random encounters are plentiful.
[2012-02-19 14:09:55] Aleksei\Gaia: Slow is 30
[2012-02-19 14:10:45] Ilya: so L3 at fast is 3300
[2012-02-19 14:10:48] Ilya: we have more than that right?
[2012-02-19 14:11:28] DM: f'ref: http://kingmaker.xthemage.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=1&sid=e1b58c557e430cd68a1d7c7c3fca3514
[2012-02-19 14:11:52] Aleksei\Gaia: So that brings us o
[2012-02-19 14:11:54] Ilya: 1925+1250+870 = 4045
[2012-02-19 14:11:55] DM: You do. But I haven't decided yet.
[2012-02-19 14:11:59] Ilya: ok well
[2012-02-19 14:12:07] DM: Also, no leveling before the session.
[2012-02-19 14:12:08] Ilya: /shrug
[2012-02-19 14:12:13] DM: I just wanted opinions.
[2012-02-19 14:12:19] Aleksei\Gaia: My opinion is yes
[2012-02-19 14:12:21] Ilya: i think it's a good idea.
[2012-02-19 14:12:37] Aleksei\Gaia: Don't get me wrong
[2012-02-19 14:12:40] Aleksei\Gaia: I like random encounters
[2012-02-19 14:12:47] Aleksei\Gaia: I don't think there should be zero of them
[2012-02-19 14:12:49] DM: I wouldn't get rid of them entirely.
[2012-02-19 14:12:51] Bolgan: I'm fine with it
[2012-02-19 14:12:58] Aleksei\Gaia: But there can't reasonably be enough to sustain Medium progression
[2012-02-19 14:12:59] Ilya: but it doesn't look like this gives us room to eliminate them
[2012-02-19 14:13:01] Aleksei\Gaia: Not in an online game
[2012-02-19 14:13:02] Ilya: just less
[2012-02-19 14:13:24] DM: Yup.
[2012-02-19 14:13:27] DM: Ok.
[2012-02-19 14:13:53] DM: Well, let's say hypothetically that as of the end of this session y'all will hit L3.
[2012-02-19 14:14:09] Bolgan: very well
[2012-02-19 14:14:32] Aleksei\Gaia: Wonderful
[2012-02-19 14:14:36] Aleksei\Gaia: So yeah
[2012-02-19 14:14:39] Aleksei\Gaia: Let's burn them eggs
[2012-02-19 14:14:43] Ilya: mhm
[2012-02-19 14:15:27] DM: Hmm
[2012-02-19 14:15:57] DM: Ok...
[2012-02-19 14:16:09] DM: Let's get started.
[2012-02-19 14:16:37] Ilya: k
[2012-02-19 14:16:42] DM: First off, I have reason to suspect that there might be further discussion about the eggs, so let's put that off until everyone's here.
[2012-02-19 14:16:53] DM: As it doesn't impact what happens next...
[2012-02-19 14:16:56] DM: What happens next?
[2012-02-19 14:17:05] Ilya: I guess we go treat with the kobolds
[2012-02-19 14:17:13] Aleksei\Gaia: That also will require discussion imo
[2012-02-19 14:17:26] Ilya: probably
[2012-02-19 14:17:36] Aleksei\Gaia: So maybe we should go gather those berries!
[2012-02-19 14:17:43] Ilya: actually Ilya's stance on this is basically "fuck kobolds"
[2012-02-19 14:17:52] Ilya: but I'm willing to not have to deal with them now
[2012-02-19 14:18:02] Ilya: for the purposes of getting them off our shit

[2012-02-19 14:18:39] Taranis: I said we'd be late
[2012-02-19 14:18:45] Taranis: little later than I guessed but yeah
[2012-02-19 14:18:58] Taranis: Erin will be on in a couple minutes
[2012-02-19 14:19:15] DM: I know. There was discussion about what to do next, and the discussion blocked on your inputs.
[2012-02-19 14:19:50] Trip: No problem.
[2012-02-19 14:19:51] Taranis: (Also, Sandy… I thought I had mentioned the Teen Paranormal Romance section existing like a year ago)
[2012-02-19 14:19:55] Taranis: Well...
[2012-02-19 14:20:12] Taranis: I'm pretty sure Elias does not want to burn all those vermin… Taranis will be happy to get out of there
[2012-02-19 14:20:26] Taranis: and, I figure, head to the kobolds and see what happens there
[2012-02-19 14:20:54] DM: The two immediate issues being discussed are: a) Giant Centipede Eggs: Burn: [Y/n] and b) What to do next about the kobolds.
[2012-02-19 14:21:18] Ilya: Well for people with more knowledge than me...
[2012-02-19 14:21:28] Taranis: My input: A) [Y]. B) Have this kobold lead us to his people for discussion
[2012-02-19 14:21:28] Ilya: Won't the eggs hatch and have giant centipedes roaming around killing people?
[2012-02-19 14:21:45] Ilya: So shouldn't we burn them now
[2012-02-19 14:21:50] Ilya: To prevent that
[2012-02-19 14:22:07] Trip: (getting food. Be back in a bit)
[2012-02-19 14:22:22] Aleksei\Gaia: I see no reason why that wouldn't happen
[2012-02-19 14:22:30] Aleksei\Gaia: So fire is the answer
[2012-02-19 14:22:32] DM: A possibility. They're not likely to roam too far beyond their lair, but it could become nasty if left unchecked.
[2012-02-19 14:22:36] Ilya: Yes, but I think Elias has some Knowledge: Nature
[2012-02-19 14:22:40] Aleksei\Gaia: k

[2012-02-19 14:23:17] Ilya: So our job here is to remove any and all threats
[2012-02-19 14:23:28] Ilya: to people here in the chartered area
[2012-02-19 14:23:37] DM: Y'all have defeated the dastardly mites that captured Svetlana and befriended a small kobold named MIkmek in the process.
[2012-02-19 14:23:38] DM: You have also recovered a idol of some sort, that Mikmek claims is his tribe's conduit to "Old Sharptooth".
[2012-02-19 14:23:43] Ilya: if this means extincting local wildlife, then that's what it means
[2012-02-19 14:23:43] DM: The two immediate issues being discussed are: a) Giant Centipede Eggs: Burn: [Y/n] and b) What to do next about the kobolds.
[2012-02-19 14:24:13] Elias: I would just like to point out that Elias tries to pocket/save as many of said giant centipede eggs as he can
[2012-02-19 14:24:20] Bolgan: oh really
[2012-02-19 14:24:39] Aleksei\Gaia: Aren't they
[2012-02-19 14:24:40] Aleksei\Gaia: big
[2012-02-19 14:24:44] DM: They're fairly large, about baseball sized.
[2012-02-19 14:24:48] Aleksei\Gaia: Oh only that big
[2012-02-19 14:24:51] Elias: he can fit a few in his bag
[2012-02-19 14:25:02] DM: Let's say you get about two dozen or so.
[2012-02-19 14:25:13] Aleksei\Gaia: Well as long as you feed them yourself
[2012-02-19 14:25:15] Elias: It's better to befriend nature and make it work in your favor than it is to try and extinguish it
[2012-02-19 14:25:16] Aleksei\Gaia: And walk them
[2012-02-19 14:25:29] Ilya: :|
[2012-02-19 14:25:34] Aleksei\Gaia: If they mess up my stuff I will totally squish them
[2012-02-19 14:25:45] Ilya: Fine, whatever.
[2012-02-19 14:25:49] Ilya: Let's get out of this place.
[2012-02-19 14:25:50] Elias: I will ensure they don't mess with your stuff
[2012-02-19 14:25:56] Elias: I know what I'm doing. I'm a ranger.
[2012-02-19 14:26:01] Elias: This is my job
[2012-02-19 14:26:02] DM: Righty oh.
[2012-02-19 14:26:02] Ilya: looks unimpressed
[2012-02-19 14:26:10] DM: So… that answers point the first.
[2012-02-19 14:26:15] DM: What about point the second?
[2012-02-19 14:26:17] Elias: is blissfully unaware of Ilya's dirty looks
[2012-02-19 14:26:18] DM: Where to now?
[2012-02-19 14:26:27] Aleksei\Gaia: To the kobolds!
[2012-02-19 14:26:36] Ilya: So I guess we take Mikmek and this thingy to the kobold area
[2012-02-19 14:26:39] DM: Sounds good.
[2012-02-19 14:26:40] Taranis: Mikmek leads us to his home and such
[2012-02-19 14:26:42] Ilya: and tell them they should leave humans alone
[2012-02-19 14:26:47] Taranis: where we can talk to them
[2012-02-19 14:26:55] » Mikmek joined the chat room.
[2012-02-19 14:27:02] Mikmek: cheers
[2012-02-19 14:28:01] DM: Mikmek leads you to the southeast, to a small cavern.
[2012-02-19 14:28:55] DM: As you travel, several of you who are more familiar with geography note that the "map" in the mite lair corresponds to the path between the mite lair and this cavern.
[2012-02-19 14:29:57] DM: As you approach the cavern, you see a fallen sign leaning against the side of the cave entrance, and a cage made of branches and sticks on the other side.
[2012-02-19 14:30:20] » Elias left the chat room.
[2012-02-19 14:30:20] DM: The stick cage contains a single, sobbing mite -- his eyes squinted tightly shut against the daylight.
[2012-02-19 14:30:42] DM: Next to the cage, a kobold sits, prodding the mite with a bored expression on its face.
[2012-02-19 14:30:50] » Taranis left the chat room.
[2012-02-19 14:30:54] Mikmek: calls out in Draconic to the other kobold.
[2012-02-19 14:31:24] Aleksei\Gaia: frowns
[2012-02-19 14:31:25] Mikmek: Nakpik! I'm free. These humans saved me!
[2012-02-19 14:31:33] DM: (assuming someone translates)
[2012-02-19 14:31:48] Ilya: lets Taranis do that
[2012-02-19 14:31:53] Ilya: if he wants
[2012-02-19 14:32:13] DM: The other kobold reacts, first by instinctively reaching for its spear and then lowering it once it sees Mikmek.
[2012-02-19 14:32:29] Mikmek: We've freed old sharptooth!

[2012-02-19 14:33:37] Ilya: Soo...
[2012-02-19 14:33:45] Ilya: Mikmek, how many of you kobolds are there here?
[2012-02-19 14:33:54] DM: The other kobold scampers off.
[2012-02-19 14:34:35] Mikmek: A whole bunch. Twenty or so. Not as many as there were before... but now Old Sharptooth makes us stronger!
[2012-02-19 14:34:47] Ilya: Stronger?
[2012-02-19 14:34:48] DM: The other kobold returns shortly, saying "The Chief said to bring them in."
[2012-02-19 14:35:14] Taranis: (same day?)
[2012-02-19 14:35:39] DM: It's about a 3-4 hour ride.
[2012-02-19 14:35:53] DM: Do you sleep after clearing out the mite lair?
[2012-02-19 14:36:03] Mikmek: Yeah. He watches over us and tells us what to do. He helps us kill the damn mites!
[2012-02-19 14:36:09] Taranis: It was… eveningish when we got there?
[2012-02-19 14:36:11] Mikmek: He makes us powerful!

[2012-02-19 14:37:28] Ilya: follows
[2012-02-19 14:37:35] Ilya: motions for others to follow

[2012-02-19 14:38:40] Mikmek: Tartuk speaks to Old Sharptooth through that.

[2012-02-19 15:17:21] DM: Once you've placed yourselves...
[2012-02-19 15:17:24] DM: Trip is up first.
[2012-02-19 15:17:34] Ilya: get behind him
[2012-02-19 15:17:42] Ilya: I'll flank
[2012-02-19 15:17:43] Trip: I am good at that.
[2012-02-19 15:18:20] Trip: I'd like to attempt flipping by him.
[2012-02-19 15:18:27] DM: Alrighty.
[2012-02-19 15:18:45] DM: He hasn't acted yet, so he's not threatening you. No need to roll.
[2012-02-19 15:18:57] Ilya: true dat
[2012-02-19 15:19:07] Ilya: this guy is so fucked
[2012-02-19 15:19:17] DM: However, do roll an attack.
[2012-02-19 15:19:36] Trip: I don't suppose I was able to sneak around him?
[2012-02-19 15:19:53] Ilya: you totally were
[2012-02-19 15:20:06] Trip: heehee
[2012-02-19 15:20:11] Taranis: given that he's flat-footed, more like blatantly walk right past him before he can act
[2012-02-19 15:20:15] Trip: !try 7
[2012-02-19 15:20:16] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Trip :
[2012-02-19 15:20:16] DiceBot: 1d20 < 2 = 2 > + 7 = 9
[2012-02-19 15:20:18] Ilya: oof
[2012-02-19 15:20:19] Trip: gah
[2012-02-19 15:20:20] DM: Indeed. Until someone acts in a round, you can pretty much move around if you act first.
[2012-02-19 15:20:27] Trip: *whistles *
[2012-02-19 15:20:27] DM: That, however, is not a hit.
[2012-02-19 15:20:29] Taranis: (unless they have combat reflexes)
[2012-02-19 15:20:32] DM: His raven distracts you.
[2012-02-19 15:20:46] Ilya: hm
[2012-02-19 15:20:52] Trip: daaaaaang. I finally snuck and didn't get to use it!!!
[2012-02-19 15:20:57] Ilya: actually i think Bolgan will flank with you and I'll hang out down and to the left
[2012-02-19 15:21:08] DM: This brings us to… Elias!
[2012-02-19 15:21:20] Bolgan: wtf is this highlight shit
[2012-02-19 15:21:21] Trip: That can work. Just don't leave me solo in melee.
[2012-02-19 15:21:28] Ilya: oh no no
[2012-02-19 15:21:29] Ilya: you'll be fine
[2012-02-19 15:21:29] Ilya: '
[2012-02-19 15:21:34] Bolgan: is this like any time my nickname is in someone's text?
[2012-02-19 15:21:37] Ilya: yeah
[2012-02-19 15:21:44] Ilya: irc clients tend to do that
[2012-02-19 15:21:50] Trip: Quite handy, in my opinion.
[2012-02-19 15:22:00] Bolgan: fuckin' smart
[2012-02-19 15:22:00] Elias: bowplomacy I guess
[2012-02-19 15:22:07] Taranis: also, you're in melee with a spellcaster, not, say, a greatsword wielding barbarian
[2012-02-19 15:22:21] Elias: !try 7
[2012-02-19 15:22:21] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Elias :

[2012-02-19 15:23:17] DM: Indeed
[2012-02-19 15:23:39] DM: Aleksei…
[2012-02-19 15:24:03] DM: Desna thinks this Old Sharptooth is mean.
[2012-02-19 15:24:10] DM: You should kill his priest!
[2012-02-19 15:24:10] Ilya: ...
[2012-02-19 15:24:13] Ilya: lol
[2012-02-19 15:24:18] Aleksei\Gaia: Well that's probably true.
[2012-02-19 15:24:25] Trip: It's a spellcaster of dice! We're doomed!
[2012-02-19 15:24:43] Aleksei\Gaia: TEH POWER OF DESNA
[2012-02-19 15:24:47] Aleksei\Gaia: walks over

[2012-02-19 15:25:05] DM: A hit indeed.
[2012-02-19 15:25:18] Aleksei\Gaia: He is now debuffed
[2012-02-19 15:25:20] Aleksei\Gaia: With chaos
[2012-02-19 15:25:25] DM: Noted
[2012-02-19 15:25:29] Ilya: you're taking up space in melee
[2012-02-19 15:25:49] DM: Next up is… Ilya!
[2012-02-19 15:25:55] Ilya: 5ft up

[2012-02-19 15:26:48] Aleksei\Gaia: amirite
[2012-02-19 15:26:52] DM: Damn kobold gods… probably need to be killed.
[2012-02-19 15:27:06] Trip: Is Alexsei able to shift 5 ft still?
[2012-02-19 15:27:08] DM: So… You're pretty sure that that attack should have hit.
[2012-02-19 15:27:19] Ilya: yeah he's got the armor classes and such
[2012-02-19 15:27:20] Taranis: It's called Mage Armor, look it up.
[2012-02-19 15:27:36] Ilya: sigh
[2012-02-19 15:27:37] DM: But at the last moment it bounces off of a plane of force.
[2012-02-19 15:27:38] Ilya: stupid dice
[2012-02-19 15:27:46] Ilya: oh noes shield
[2012-02-19 15:27:51] Ilya: or something.
[2012-02-19 15:27:53] Ilya: who cares.
[2012-02-19 15:28:06] DM: Indeed.
[2012-02-19 15:28:11] Ilya: :|
[2012-02-19 15:28:19] The_Chief: is up
[2012-02-19 15:28:43] Ilya: is there room north of the dude?
[2012-02-19 15:28:44] The_Chief: shakes his club at Tartuk and charges.
[2012-02-19 15:28:50] Ilya: that aleksei could have occupied
[2012-02-19 15:28:50] DM: Yes
[2012-02-19 15:28:53] DM: Yes there is.
[2012-02-19 15:28:56] Ilya: instead of going where he did
[2012-02-19 15:29:00] Ilya: which fucks everyone
[2012-02-19 15:29:07] Aleksei\Gaia: What
[2012-02-19 15:29:11] Aleksei\Gaia: It doesn't fuck anyone
[2012-02-19 15:29:14] Ilya: the chief is making it worse
[2012-02-19 15:29:15] Ilya: it does
[2012-02-19 15:29:20] Ilya: we need to fit me and bolgan in there.
[2012-02-19 15:29:23] Ilya: to hit him
[2012-02-19 15:29:31] Ilya: you on the other hand
[2012-02-19 15:29:32] Taranis: well you have reach
[2012-02-19 15:29:33] Ilya: are not flanking
[2012-02-19 15:29:34] Aleksei\Gaia: Sigh

[2012-02-19 15:29:51] The_Chief: did that.
[2012-02-19 15:30:01] DM: And that charge fails spectacularly.
[2012-02-19 15:30:08] DM: Taranis!
[2012-02-19 15:30:32] Taranis: mutters
[2012-02-19 15:30:45] Taranis: ravens… filthy little things

[2012-02-19 15:31:32] DM: indeed
[2012-02-19 15:31:55] DM: Well, all things considered, that should probably have taken the raven out.
[2012-02-19 15:31:57] DM: It does not.
[2012-02-19 15:32:07] Ilya: yes yes he's a wizard
[2012-02-19 15:32:10] Ilya: or sorcerer
[2012-02-19 15:32:12] Ilya: or what have you
[2012-02-19 15:32:22] Taranis: Yeah, well
[2012-02-19 15:32:23] DM: Right then

[2012-02-19 15:33:46] Ilya: so for a L1 spell
[2012-02-19 15:33:48] DM: Aaand… thanks to some chaos magic, that fails.

[2012-02-19 15:40:46] Aleksei\Gaia: k.
[2012-02-19 15:40:57] Trip: I can try to block his way at least.

[2012-02-19 15:42:15] Bolgan: wtf is 3/3
[2012-02-19 15:42:19] DM: I believe… that's more than one move worth of activity...
[2012-02-19 15:42:23] DM: so… Elias is next up!
[2012-02-19 15:42:24] Taranis: I believe it's 1.

[2012-02-19 15:45:51] Aleksei\Gaia: What
[2012-02-19 15:45:51] Aleksei\Gaia: er
[2012-02-19 15:45:51] Aleksei\Gaia: Hmm
[2012-02-19 15:45:52] Taranis: are you attacking the chief who is on our side?
[2012-02-19 15:45:53] DM: Wrong kobold
[2012-02-19 15:45:56] Aleksei\Gaia: moves instead
[2012-02-19 15:45:58] Taranis: You are a bad cleric.
[2012-02-19 15:45:58] DM: Wrong kobold.
[2012-02-19 15:46:00] Taranis: I know you're a bad touch cleric but still
[2012-02-19 15:46:01] Aleksei\Gaia: touch
[2012-02-19 15:46:20] Aleksei\Gaia: !try 2;touch
[2012-02-19 15:46:20] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Aleksei\Gaia :
[2012-02-19 15:46:20] DiceBot: (touch) 1d20 < 3 = 3 > + 2 = 5
[2012-02-19 15:46:22] Aleksei\Gaia: agh
[2012-02-19 15:46:24] DM: That… I believe requires some defensive casting?
[2012-02-19 15:46:27] Aleksei\Gaia: No
[2012-02-19 15:46:27] Taranis: hold that charge
[2012-02-19 15:46:28] Ilya: the dice, they hateses us
[2012-02-19 15:46:29] Aleksei\Gaia: Why would it
[2012-02-19 15:46:30] Taranis: he cast before he moved
[2012-02-19 15:46:32] Aleksei\Gaia: Right
[2012-02-19 15:46:36] Ilya: um
[2012-02-19 15:46:36] Aleksei\Gaia: At least I threaten atm
[2012-02-19 15:46:37] Taranis: also he threatens now <.<
[2012-02-19 15:46:40] DM: In which case the touch is an attack action.
[2012-02-19 15:46:43] Ilya: you cast before you moved?
[2012-02-19 15:46:43] Ilya: yeah
[2012-02-19 15:46:44] Aleksei\Gaia: Nope
[2012-02-19 15:46:47] Ilya: you can't cast, move, touch
[2012-02-19 15:46:47] Aleksei\Gaia: That is not how it works.
[2012-02-19 15:46:50] Ilya: it is too.
[2012-02-19 15:46:51] Aleksei\Gaia: Yes you can
[2012-02-19 15:46:51] Taranis: yes, you can
[2012-02-19 15:46:55] Ilya: what?
[2012-02-19 15:46:56] DM: You can cast, 5ft, touch
[2012-02-19 15:46:57] Aleksei\Gaia: No
[2012-02-19 15:47:00] Taranis: I didn't think so, I looked, it was the case in 3.5 too
[2012-02-19 15:47:01] Aleksei\Gaia: You can cast, move, touch
[2012-02-19 15:47:04] Aleksei\Gaia: It's a thing.
[2012-02-19 15:47:08] Ilya: explain how
[2012-02-19 15:47:12] Ilya: or page numbers
[2012-02-19 15:47:14] Ilya: or srd pages
[2012-02-19 15:47:17] Ilya: or what have you
[2012-02-19 15:47:20] DM: Either way, moot point for now.
[2012-02-19 15:47:30] DM: Please direct me to the relevant rules afterwards.
[2012-02-19 15:47:32] DM: Ilya's next up
[2012-02-19 15:47:43] Ilya: moves
[2012-02-19 15:47:48] Ilya: drops Ranseur
[2012-02-19 15:47:56] Ilya: grapple
[2012-02-19 15:48:00] DM: Indeed.
[2012-02-19 15:48:01] Aleksei: "Touch Spells in Combat
[2012-02-19 15:48:01] Aleksei: Many spells have a range of touch. To use these spells, you cast the spell and then touch the subject. In the same round that you cast the spell, you may also touch (or attempt to touch) as a free action. You may take your move before casting the spell, after touching the target, or between casting the spell and touching the target. "
[2012-02-19 15:48:02] DM: Well...
[2012-02-19 15:48:04] Aleksei: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/combat
[2012-02-19 15:48:12] Ilya: no shit.
[2012-02-19 15:48:12] Taranis: yeah I was PMing and all
[2012-02-19 15:48:14] DM: Indeed.
[2012-02-19 15:48:16] Aleksei: Noooo shit.
[2012-02-19 15:48:30] Aleksei\Gaia: So yeah, atm I threaten
[2012-02-19 15:48:37] Aleksei\Gaia: People who want flanking bonuses can flank with me.
[2012-02-19 15:48:42] DM: So, he raises his sickle up to intercept you. You notice a slight glow emanating from it.
[2012-02-19 15:48:47] Ilya: go for it
[2012-02-19 15:49:01] Purple_kobold: !try 4
[2012-02-19 15:49:01] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Purple_kobold :
[2012-02-19 15:49:01] DiceBot: 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 4 = 17
[2012-02-19 15:49:03] Ilya: fail
[2012-02-19 15:49:09] DM: Indeed
[2012-02-19 15:49:18] DM: Alright. Roll the grapple
[2012-02-19 15:49:21] Ilya: grapple check
[2012-02-19 15:49:28] Ilya: hm... does smite add to this
[2012-02-19 15:49:38] Ilya: !try 5
[2012-02-19 15:49:38] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Ilya :
[2012-02-19 15:49:38] DiceBot: 1d20 < 15 = 15 > + 5 = 20
[2012-02-19 15:49:40] Taranis: generally, anything that adds to attacks adds to CMB
[2012-02-19 15:49:44] Trip: go go woo
[2012-02-19 15:49:47] Ilya: let me check
[2012-02-19 15:49:57] DM: A success.
[2012-02-19 15:50:05] DM: You'd think that they'd put CMD in the defense section.
[2012-02-19 15:50:12] DM: He is grappled.
[2012-02-19 15:50:23] Ilya: k
[2012-02-19 15:50:24] The_Chief: goes
[2012-02-19 15:50:28] Taranis: Yeah that part really confuses me
[2012-02-19 15:50:47] Taranis: I'd put CMB in offense and CMD in defense, not both in stats
[2012-02-19 15:50:47] The_Chief: again charges
[2012-02-19 15:50:55] The_Chief: !try 4+2

[2012-02-19 15:51:03] The_Chief: hits for once.
[2012-02-19 15:51:08] DM: Let's see...
[2012-02-19 15:51:17] DM: Trip is threatening so...
[2012-02-19 15:51:23] Ilya: ah, smite does apply
[2012-02-19 15:51:30] Ilya: so that was like
[2012-02-19 15:51:31] Ilya: 2 higher
[2012-02-19 15:51:36] Bolgan: is not very threatening :/
[2012-02-19 15:51:36] The_Chief: !roll 1d4+1d6
[2012-02-19 15:51:36] DiceBot: rolls dice for The_Chief : 1d4 < 4 = 4 > + 1d6 < 3 = 3 > = 7
[2012-02-19 15:52:11] The_Chief: roars furiously. <draconic>Die you... horrible excuse for a kobold.</draconic>
[2012-02-19 15:52:24] DM: Taranis is up
[2012-02-19 15:52:28] Taranis: right then
[2012-02-19 15:52:34] Taranis: 5-ft
[2012-02-19 15:52:41] Taranis: Bonded Object Shocking Grasp
[2012-02-19 15:52:53] DM: Oh, hey.. almost forgot…
[2012-02-19 15:52:57] DM: Ilya, you moved past the raven
[2012-02-19 15:53:00] DM: !try 4

[2012-02-19 15:53:03] Ilya: nope
[2012-02-19 15:53:08] Taranis: which I guess requires the concentration check
[2012-02-19 15:53:12] DM: Yep.
[2012-02-19 15:53:19] Taranis: !try 7
[2012-02-19 15:53:19] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis :
[2012-02-19 15:53:19] DiceBot: 1d20 < 12 = 12 > + 7 = 19

[2012-02-19 15:53:28] DiceBot: (touch) 1d20 < 2 = 2 >1 = 3
[2012-02-19 15:53:29] Ilya: actually
[2012-02-19 15:53:32] Ilya: this raven is small?
[2012-02-19 15:53:34] Ilya: or tiny
[2012-02-19 15:53:39] Ilya: I'd expect it to be tiny.
[2012-02-19 15:53:41] DM: Tiny
[2012-02-19 15:53:44] Taranis: well...
[2012-02-19 15:53:53] Taranis: hmm, formatting turned the - into an m-dash
[2012-02-19 15:53:56] Ilya: do tiny things threaten in a 5ft radius around them??
[2012-02-19 15:53:57] Taranis: damn you autocorrect
[2012-02-19 15:54:18] DM: You're right they don't.
[2012-02-19 15:54:20] Ilya: they in fact do not
[2012-02-19 15:54:22] Ilya: as I expected
[2012-02-19 15:54:23] DM: That is, at any rate, a miss.
[2012-02-19 15:54:29] Taranis: That would miss a wall :(
[2012-02-19 15:54:38] Bolgan: what are you drunk
[2012-02-19 15:54:38] Purple_kobold: doesn't have many options.
[2012-02-19 15:54:47] Bolgan: how the fuck do you miss a wall
[2012-02-19 15:54:48] Ilya: nope, you fucked son
[2012-02-19 15:55:01] Trip: :D
[2012-02-19 15:55:05] Taranis: I miss a wall by having a 6 Strength and a BAB of 1.
[2012-02-19 15:55:06] Purple_kobold: growls and cuts at Ilya.
[2012-02-19 15:55:16] DM: aaand… now I look up the rules on grappling.
[2012-02-19 15:55:17] DM: one sec
[2012-02-19 15:55:32] Taranis: to break, CMB vs. CMD, but to attack...
[2012-02-19 15:55:34] Taranis: may be the same
[2012-02-19 15:56:10] DM: No check to attack.
[2012-02-19 15:56:25] Purple_kobold: !try 4;sickle
[2012-02-19 15:56:25] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Purple_kobold :
[2012-02-19 15:56:25] DiceBot: (sickle) 1d20 < 12 = 12 > + 4 = 16
[2012-02-19 15:56:27] Taranis: yeah, attack at -2
[2012-02-19 15:56:27] Ilya: no no
[2012-02-19 15:56:56] Ilya: oh
[2012-02-19 15:56:57] Taranis: FLOWCHARTS
[2012-02-19 15:56:58] Ilya: yes you're right
[2012-02-19 15:57:00] Ilya: flowcharts.
[2012-02-19 15:57:03] Taranis:

[2012-02-19 15:57:10] Ilya: also note his -4 dexterity penalty
[2012-02-19 15:57:12] Taranis: my god google docs urls suck
[2012-02-19 15:57:13] Ilya: for being grappled
[2012-02-19 15:57:19] DM: Indeed
[2012-02-19 15:57:40] DM: So you note, by the way, that he's doing something else.
[2012-02-19 15:57:44] Ilya: ?
[2012-02-19 15:57:50] Bolgan: with what limbs
[2012-02-19 15:57:51] Ilya: and I guess... with my dex penalty that 16 hits
[2012-02-19 15:57:52] DM: You can't tell what it is precisely, but he seems to be focusing on something.
[2012-02-19 15:58:02] DM: That would actually be a 14
[2012-02-19 15:58:05] DM: with the -2
[2012-02-19 15:58:06] Ilya: oh well then.
[2012-02-19 15:58:11] Ilya: fuck that.
[2012-02-19 15:58:14] Ilya: :P
[2012-02-19 15:58:28] DM: Bolgan!
[2012-02-19 15:58:31] Ilya: actually.
[2012-02-19 15:58:35] Ilya: the 16 didn't hit either.
[2012-02-19 15:58:38] Ilya: my bad.
[2012-02-19 15:58:39] Ilya: :p
[2012-02-19 15:58:46] Ilya: wait yes it did I can't do math.
[2012-02-19 15:58:52] Ilya: -4 dex = -2 to modifier
[2012-02-19 15:59:04] DM: Indeed it is.
[2012-02-19 15:59:05] Bolgan: uhh
[2012-02-19 15:59:24] Bolgan: so Trip is grappling and not flanking?
[2012-02-19 15:59:36] DM: Ilya is grappling. Trip is flanking
[2012-02-19 15:59:44] Bolgan: got it
[2012-02-19 15:59:50] DM: Flanking with the chief anyway
[2012-02-19 16:00:01] Trip: Yeah. Can I carefully attack, take a penalty?
[2012-02-19 16:00:02] Bolgan: oh right
[2012-02-19 16:00:05] Bolgan: fucking chief
[2012-02-19 16:00:10] Bolgan: uhh
[2012-02-19 16:00:16] Taranis: <.< crap, i forgot my flanking bonus on the touch attack. I missed by slightly less
[2012-02-19 16:00:17] DM: There is no penalty for melee attacks into a grapple.
[2012-02-19 16:00:29] Trip: In that case
[2012-02-19 16:00:36] Trip: !try 7 7

[2012-02-19 16:01:54] Bolgan: neeext.
[2012-02-19 16:01:55] DM: Well, that doesn't sound particularly fun
[2012-02-19 16:02:01] DM: Trip goes now.
[2012-02-19 16:02:04] DM: One of those attacks hits.
[2012-02-19 16:02:09] Bolgan: whapaaaaaaa
[2012-02-19 16:02:20] Taranis: Hey Bolgan… what's your favorite drink?
[2012-02-19 16:02:25] DM: And you do indeed get flanking.
[2012-02-19 16:02:32] DM: *Pow*erthirst?
[2012-02-19 16:03:18] Ilya: i am guessing it's waaataaaah
[2012-02-19 16:03:33] DM: Trip?
[2012-02-19 16:03:40] DM: You've got one hit in there.
[2012-02-19 16:04:17] DM: Alright… well… in the meantime… Are Elias, Aleksei and/or Ilya doing anything?

[2012-02-19 16:06:30] Ilya: s/awesome/moderate
[2012-02-19 16:06:40] Ilya: oh i see
[2012-02-19 16:06:42] Ilya: that was a crit
[2012-02-19 16:06:50] Trip: Nicely rolled.
[2012-02-19 16:06:51] Ilya: i was reading about grapple <_<
[2012-02-19 16:07:02] The_Chief: You... give statue. Need it now!
[2012-02-19 16:07:11] Elias: so did I hit the raven?
[2012-02-19 16:07:11] Ilya: drops the dude
[2012-02-19 16:07:15] Ilya: Hold on
[2012-02-19 16:07:21] Elias: or does it matter anymore?
[2012-02-19 16:07:21] DM: That's a hit on the raven.
[2012-02-19 16:07:23] Ilya: in draconic
[2012-02-19 16:07:27] Ilya: Explain this statue to me
[2012-02-19 16:07:31] Ilya: Why do you need it
[2012-02-19 16:07:36] The_Chief: Need... to break it
[2012-02-19 16:07:47] Ilya: Oliver, what's it made of?
[2012-02-19 16:07:48] The_Chief: to stop Old Sharptooth's anger from hurting us!
[2012-02-19 16:08:06] Taranis: I… take it the raven collapsed when the purple guy did?
[2012-02-19 16:08:19] Taranis: or are we having a conversation while it pecks my eyes out?
[2012-02-19 16:08:20] DM: Ivory
[2012-02-19 16:08:31] DM: As the kobold dies...
[2012-02-19 16:08:33] Ilya: takes it out, looks at it
[2012-02-19 16:08:44] DM: The raven siezes up in a moment of agony and also falls down.
[2012-02-19 16:08:46] Ilya: puts it on the ground while picking up his ranseur
[2012-02-19 16:08:51] Ilya: smashes it
[2012-02-19 16:08:58] The_Chief: cheers!
[2012-02-19 16:09:15] The_Chief: We are free!
[2012-02-19 16:09:19] DM: The kobolds all cheer.
[2012-02-19 16:09:28] Ilya: Great
[2012-02-19 16:09:39] Ilya: We freed the oppressed
[2012-02-19 16:09:41] Aleksei\Gaia: is now even more confused
[2012-02-19 16:09:43] Aleksei\Gaia: Oh did we?
[2012-02-19 16:09:56] Ilya: Yeah, it seems like that guy you just finished was manipulating them
[2012-02-19 16:10:02] Aleksei\Gaia: Sweet
[2012-02-19 16:10:03] Aleksei\Gaia: So like are they not evil now?
[2012-02-19 16:10:06] Ilya: With claims of "Old Sharptooth"
[2012-02-19 16:10:10] Ilya: I... doubt that's true.
[2012-02-19 16:10:17] Aleksei\Gaia: Hm :/
[2012-02-19 16:10:18] Ilya: But hopefully we can work with them
[2012-02-19 16:10:25] Ilya: Make them better citizens of the chartered area
[2012-02-19 16:10:32] Ilya: Oh wait
[2012-02-19 16:10:32] Aleksei\Gaia: I like that idea
[2012-02-19 16:10:36] Taranis: <.< maybe
[2012-02-19 16:10:36] Ilya: What happened to that aura?
[2012-02-19 16:10:42] Aleksei\Gaia: looks at it
[2012-02-19 16:10:46] Ilya: The conj one
[2012-02-19 16:10:46] Aleksei\Gaia: detect again
[2012-02-19 16:10:47] DM: Another detect magic?
[2012-02-19 16:11:12] DM: Just the usual lingering signs, but the aura is gone.
[2012-02-19 16:11:36] Ilya: Someone search the area where Aleksei first saw it
[2012-02-19 16:11:44] Ilya: (someone with more wisdom than me)
[2012-02-19 16:11:46] DM: Nothing to be seen.
[2012-02-19 16:11:51] Ilya: Hm.
[2012-02-19 16:11:51] Taranis: Unseen Servant seems the most likely source of that aura.
[2012-02-19 16:11:53] DM: Meanwhile...
[2012-02-19 16:11:59] Ilya: Ah, ok.
[2012-02-19 16:12:07] Taranis: Would have helped this guy trick the kobolds, yes?
[2012-02-19 16:12:08] The_Chief: starts moving up and out of the chamber
[2012-02-19 16:12:14] Ilya: Yeah, makes sense.
[2012-02-19 16:12:19] The_Chief: (out the northeast passage)
[2012-02-19 16:12:42] Ilya: follows
[2012-02-19 16:12:44] The_Chief: commands several kobolds to come with
[2012-02-19 16:12:46] Ilya: So, Chief
[2012-02-19 16:12:51] Ilya: *ind raconic*
[2012-02-19 16:12:57] Ilya: We helped free your people from oppression
[2012-02-19 16:13:01] Ilya: Do we have a deal?
[2012-02-19 16:13:19] Ilya: Your people leave our people alone and we don't come after you.
[2012-02-19 16:13:24] The_Chief: Yes. We attacked the humans because Old Sharptooth demanded it.
[2012-02-19 16:13:30] Ilya: Excellent.
[2012-02-19 16:13:34] Ilya: And Old Shaprtooth is no more.
[2012-02-19 16:13:45] Ilya: So no more reason to attack us.
[2012-02-19 16:13:46] The_Chief: But now... we are safe. We will become strong without him.
[2012-02-19 16:13:53] The_Chief: We... will not attack you.
[2012-02-19 16:14:01] Ilya: That's good.
[2012-02-19 16:14:08] Ilya: Maybe we can work together more in the future.
[2012-02-19 16:14:13] Ilya: Become strong together.
[2012-02-19 16:14:17] The_Chief: Yes.
[2012-02-19 16:14:28] Aleksei\Gaia: (We are the best at this)
[2012-02-19 16:14:30] Ilya: But for now, we agree not to fight each other.
[2012-02-19 16:14:40] Ilya: We'll take our leave of you now.
[2012-02-19 16:14:46] Aleksei\Gaia: (See if you can get them to trade you some technologies)
[2012-02-19 16:14:52] Ilya: (lol no)
[2012-02-19 16:14:56] Taranis: (technologies?)
[2012-02-19 16:15:00] Aleksei\Gaia: (Offer them our world map!)
[2012-02-19 16:15:02] Ilya: (stargates and such)
[2012-02-19 16:15:07] Bolgan: (motherfucker they don't have technologies)
[2012-02-19 16:15:25] Ilya: (was that underlined for anyone else)
[2012-02-19 16:15:29] Aleksei\Gaia: (yes)
[2012-02-19 16:15:29] Bolgan: (they barely have culture)
[2012-02-19 16:15:36] Bolgan: (yes me too)
[2012-02-19 16:15:41] Bolgan: (and I have no idea why)
[2012-02-19 16:15:42] Taranis: (yes, adium supports the underline)
[2012-02-19 16:15:48] The_Chief: leads you through some twisting tunnels to a room decked out in clean cut branches, lashed together with gut and twine. Banners cut from old blankets and horsehides hang from floor to ceiling covering much of it. A large cauldron filled with bubbling red liquid boils in the center of the room.
[2012-02-19 16:15:49] Ilya: lol
[2012-02-19 16:16:00] Ilya: Whoa whats' this now.
[2012-02-19 16:16:06] The_Chief: commands several kobolds to turn over the cauldron
[2012-02-19 16:16:20] Bolgan: this is obviously where the manufact the koolaid
[2012-02-19 16:16:25] Taranis: inspects, carefully not touching anyone or anything with his staff
[2012-02-19 16:16:47] Elias: Is this some sort of poison?
[2012-02-19 16:16:57] Aleksei\Gaia: wtfsauce
[2012-02-19 16:17:04] The_Chief: Hmm... let's call that spell craft.
[2012-02-19 16:17:10] DM: err, let's call that spellcraft
[2012-02-19 16:17:11] Ilya: it is in fact Wtfsauce

[2012-02-19 16:17:56] Aleksei\Gaia: :( :(
[2012-02-19 16:18:03] DM: The kobolds begin ransacking the room.
[2012-02-19 16:18:04] Taranis: I just finished eating gouda that had been cut into heart shapes.
[2012-02-19 16:18:05] Aleksei\Gaia: has no chicken parmesan
[2012-02-19 16:18:10] Ilya: I in fact made it last night!
[2012-02-19 16:18:28] DM: They find a bunch of stuff… a few things of which they throw to the side.
[2012-02-19 16:18:43] DM: The rest of which is presented in a pile before the chief's feet.
[2012-02-19 16:18:47] The_Chief: nods
[2012-02-19 16:18:50] Ilya: so this kobold was an accomplished con man
[2012-02-19 16:18:57] DM: Looks like.
[2012-02-19 16:19:05] Taranis: (he apparently gave them effective orders, though)
[2012-02-19 16:19:14] Aleksei\Gaia: Effective EVIL orders!
[2012-02-19 16:19:16] Ilya: yes with his big fat int score
[2012-02-19 16:19:19] Aleksei\Gaia: >:|
[2012-02-19 16:19:27] Aleksei\Gaia: Why was he purple though :/
[2012-02-19 16:19:30] DM: Among the things they toss to the side, Aleksei notes with his detect magic.
[2012-02-19 16:19:36] DM: *notes two
[2012-02-19 16:19:37] Aleksei\Gaia: Oh? wazzat
[2012-02-19 16:19:43] DM: One, a book, and the other a pouch.
[2012-02-19 16:19:52] Ilya: dude's spellbook maybe?
[2012-02-19 16:19:54] Taranis: (That is a question for knowledge… arcana?)
[2012-02-19 16:19:59] Aleksei\Gaia: Hey Ilya ask the kobolds if we can have that stuff
[2012-02-19 16:20:00] Aleksei\Gaia: It is magic
[2012-02-19 16:20:06] Taranis: Magic, eh?
[2012-02-19 16:20:09] Aleksei\Gaia: yes
[2012-02-19 16:20:13] Ilya: How about this stuff here?
[2012-02-19 16:20:14] Taranis: casts Detect Magic as well
[2012-02-19 16:20:15] Ilya: points
[2012-02-19 16:20:20] The_Chief: looks.
[2012-02-19 16:20:21] Ilya: Can we take it?
[2012-02-19 16:20:23] Bolgan: I merely assumed he was a walking penis euphemism
[2012-02-19 16:20:24] The_Chief: You... take
[2012-02-19 16:20:27] Bolgan: buuuuut whatevs
[2012-02-19 16:20:31] Ilya: Thank you.
[2012-02-19 16:20:41] Ilya: nods to Aleksei
[2012-02-19 16:20:49] Bolgan: (no candles, right?)
[2012-02-19 16:20:50] The_Chief: You also kill Tartuk. You take him from here. Not want to see him any more.
[2012-02-19 16:20:57] Ilya: Mmmm... ok.
[2012-02-19 16:21:00] Ilya: No problem.
[2012-02-19 16:21:05] DM: Let's see.
[2012-02-19 16:21:06] Taranis: (btw… any answers on the spellcraft/alchemy?)
[2012-02-19 16:21:15] DM: Yep… the big pot was died water.
[2012-02-19 16:21:18] Ilya: dyed*
[2012-02-19 16:21:21] Bolgan: someone here has animate dead, right? may as well get started on the zombie army
[2012-02-19 16:21:23] DM: *dyed
[2012-02-19 16:21:28] Aleksei\Gaia: grabs it
[2012-02-19 16:21:38] DM: So, you've got some illusion coming from the pouch.
[2012-02-19 16:21:50] Aleksei\Gaia: I can't animate dead and also animating dead is evil!
[2012-02-19 16:22:07] Taranis: (Aleksei does not animate dead; Sandy saves that for Anton Chekov)
[2012-02-19 16:22:11] Aleksei\Gaia: So like
[2012-02-19 16:22:11] DM: Aaand… while the book itself isn't radiating magic, you note that one of the pages seems to be.
[2012-02-19 16:22:23] Aleksei\Gaia: We'll leaf through it later
[2012-02-19 16:22:25] DM: transmutation to be precise.
[2012-02-19 16:22:28] Aleksei\Gaia: I glance inside the pouch
[2012-02-19 16:22:37] DM: Looks like dirt.
[2012-02-19 16:22:42] Aleksei\Gaia: So like, the guy dyed himself purple?
[2012-02-19 16:22:45] Aleksei\Gaia: To look scary?
[2012-02-19 16:22:45] DM: Magic dirt, but just dirt.
[2012-02-19 16:22:49] Aleksei\Gaia: Is that what's going on here
[2012-02-19 16:22:54] DM: Possibly.
[2012-02-19 16:23:06] Aleksei\Gaia: He was like, you have to listen to me because I am purple and also here is a statue?
[2012-02-19 16:23:10] DM: So… leave the kobolds to their ransacking?
[2012-02-19 16:23:15] Aleksei\Gaia: shrugs
[2012-02-19 16:23:22] DM: Or is there anything else you'd like to do?
[2012-02-19 16:23:22] Aleksei\Gaia: We've got the good stuff imo
[2012-02-19 16:23:26] Ilya: Yeah we're good
[2012-02-19 16:23:28] Aleksei\Gaia: And they promised to be nice
[2012-02-19 16:23:29] Aleksei\Gaia: So
[2012-02-19 16:23:30] Ilya: Grab soandso's corpse
[2012-02-19 16:23:30] Aleksei\Gaia: Job done
[2012-02-19 16:23:32] Ilya: and let's go
[2012-02-19 16:23:40] Ilya: says his farewells to the kobolds in draconic
[2012-02-19 16:23:45] Aleksei\Gaia: waves
[2012-02-19 16:24:07] Trip: wave
[2012-02-19 16:24:11] Taranis: Once we've left the cave, I discharge the Shocking Grasp carefully into the ground
[2012-02-19 16:24:19] The_Chief: Goodbye!
[2012-02-19 16:24:23] » Mikmek left the chat room.
[2012-02-19 16:24:25] » The_Chief left the chat room.
[2012-02-19 16:24:30] DM: Noted.
[2012-02-19 16:24:32] Bolgan: pacem, motherfuckers
[2012-02-19 16:24:40] DM: So… the corpse itself is more/less worthless...
[2012-02-19 16:24:46] DM: but on it are a few things of use.
[2012-02-19 16:24:49] Ilya: he wearing anything good
[2012-02-19 16:25:00] DM: The sickle has stopped glowing, but still reflects the light in an odd way.
[2012-02-19 16:25:09] DM: You recognize this as cold iron.
[2012-02-19 16:25:19] Bolgan: well that sounds useful
[2012-02-19 16:25:20] Ilya: potentially useful
[2012-02-19 16:25:21] Taranis: mighty be useful for gathering reagents
[2012-02-19 16:25:26] Taranis: or hurting fey
[2012-02-19 16:25:30] DM: His bracers are magic.
[2012-02-19 16:25:36] Bolgan: or gathering fey reagents
[2012-02-19 16:25:37] DM: And.. he's got a wand on him.
[2012-02-19 16:25:39] Taranis: spellcraft checks to identify things
[2012-02-19 16:25:42] Aleksei\Gaia: It's clearly for harvesting pixie strawberries
[2012-02-19 16:25:43] DM: Right.
[2012-02-19 16:25:46] Aleksei\Gaia: Which otherwise would have DR
[2012-02-19 16:25:48] DM: So you've now got some dust of illusion.
[2012-02-19 16:25:53] Aleksei\Gaia: Wonderful
[2012-02-19 16:25:57] DM: The book, as suspected is not magic.
[2012-02-19 16:26:00] Taranis: also… answers on that cauldron?
[2012-02-19 16:26:04] Ilya: ??
[2012-02-19 16:26:07] Ilya: what answers
[2012-02-19 16:26:15] DM: Dyed water in the cauldron
[2012-02-19 16:26:24] Ilya: yeah oliver said that 3 times now
[2012-02-19 16:26:25] Taranis: ah, lamesauce
[2012-02-19 16:26:25] DM: Nothing any more suspicious than that.
[2012-02-19 16:26:33] Taranis: yeah I missed it, going blind, old man eyes
[2012-02-19 16:26:40] DM: Anyone read undercommon?
[2012-02-19 16:26:41] Ilya: lol
[2012-02-19 16:26:45] Aleksei\Gaia: Absolutely not.
[2012-02-19 16:26:52] Ilya: I don't even know what that is
[2012-02-19 16:27:03] Aleksei\Gaia: It's the language of like, drow
[2012-02-19 16:27:09] Taranis: I can tomorrow
[2012-02-19 16:27:11] Taranis: but not today
[2012-02-19 16:27:17] Ilya: ew
[2012-02-19 16:27:18] Aleksei\Gaia: Evil shit that lives underground
[2012-02-19 16:27:19] Ilya: drow
[2012-02-19 16:27:20] DM: Alright, well, you've got a book you can't read… although you do recognize that tucked into the back is what appears to be a scroll of fly.
[2012-02-19 16:27:27] Taranis: yoink
[2012-02-19 16:27:30] Aleksei\Gaia: It's like Common, but underground.
[2012-02-19 16:27:43] DM: The wand… roll up an identify check.
[2012-02-19 16:27:47] Taranis: CL 5 I presume?
[2012-02-19 16:27:51] Taranis: !try 12;identify
[2012-02-19 16:27:51] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis :
[2012-02-19 16:27:51] DiceBot: (identify) 1d20 < 6 = 6 > + 12 = 18
[2012-02-19 16:28:04] DM: CL5 indeed.
[2012-02-19 16:28:10] Aleksei\Gaia: So like
[2012-02-19 16:28:18] Aleksei\Gaia: Is Dust of Illusion supposed to be a single use item?
[2012-02-19 16:28:30] DM: indeed.
[2012-02-19 16:28:37] DM: one dose
[2012-02-19 16:28:42] Aleksei\Gaia: That's atrociously overpriced
[2012-02-19 16:28:45] DM: And… finally...
[2012-02-19 16:29:01] DM: You've got a wand of magic missile CL3 with 28 charges on it.
[2012-02-19 16:29:08] Aleksei\Gaia: Bah
[2012-02-19 16:29:21] Taranis: and the bracers are +1 armor?
[2012-02-19 16:29:24] Taranis: !try 12;identify
[2012-02-19 16:29:24] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis :
[2012-02-19 16:29:24] DiceBot: (identify) 1d20 < 5 = 5 > + 12 = 17
[2012-02-19 16:29:24] DM: Indeed.
[2012-02-19 16:29:29] Aleksei\Gaia: Bahhhh
[2012-02-19 16:29:33] Taranis: I guess those go to bolgan?
[2012-02-19 16:29:34] DM: Alright.
[2012-02-19 16:29:35] DM: Now what?
[2012-02-19 16:29:41] Taranis: I will take the wand for now, since I can use it
[2012-02-19 16:29:46] Bolgan: well
[2012-02-19 16:29:48] Aleksei\Gaia: Didn't we want to get berries for that jerk
[2012-02-19 16:29:51] Bolgan: now I feel silly
[2012-02-19 16:29:58] Bolgan: for having put in an order for bracers of armor +1
[2012-02-19 16:30:10] Taranis: oh
[2012-02-19 16:30:16] Taranis: well, when you get them, I guess I can tale them
[2012-02-19 16:30:21] Bolgan: very well
[2012-02-19 16:30:34] DM: Alrighty...
[2012-02-19 16:30:39] Taranis: *take
[2012-02-19 16:31:06] DM: So...
[2012-02-19 16:31:24] Ilya: so what's left on our agenda
[2012-02-19 16:31:39] Taranis: who wants the dust of crap?
[2012-02-19 16:31:57] DM: There are two ways of getting to the berry thicket that Bokken described to you
[2012-02-19 16:32:31] Taranis: (I am adjusting my order to replace some 2nd level spell on the list with… make whole… because I'm going to end up needing it for a wall or something)
[2012-02-19 16:32:34] DM: The most direct route, which will take you about a day, involves crossing the rickety bridge that you've passed by before.
[2012-02-19 16:32:37] Bolgan: no seriously is this guy a samurai trainer - wtf name is Bokken
[2012-02-19 16:33:05] DM: Circling around north to the next crossing will take you another day, but is likely safer.
[2012-02-19 16:33:13] DM: Any preference?
[2012-02-19 16:33:23] Aleksei\Gaia: We don't need safety
[2012-02-19 16:33:26] Aleksei\Gaia: We are adventurers
[2012-02-19 16:33:29] Taranis: have we explored that area to the north?
[2012-02-19 16:33:33] Aleksei\Gaia: Besides the bridge is fine
[2012-02-19 16:33:33] Taranis: if not, that may be worthwhile
[2012-02-19 16:33:36] Ilya: yeah that's what I was thinking
[2012-02-19 16:33:36] Aleksei\Gaia: We passed it before.
[2012-02-19 16:33:46] Ilya: goign north involves xtra map discovery
[2012-02-19 16:33:51] Ilya: doesn't it?
[2012-02-19 16:33:59] Trip: (my question too, Bolgan)
[2012-02-19 16:34:00] DM: Nope.
[2012-02-19 16:34:07] Ilya: Oh
[2012-02-19 16:34:08] Ilya: then whatever
[2012-02-19 16:34:17] DM: The next crossing north is the bandit camp
[2012-02-19 16:34:26] DM: ok
[2012-02-19 16:34:32] Taranis: then we'll deal with the rickety bridge, imo
[2012-02-19 16:34:37] DM: Ok.
[2012-02-19 16:35:13] DM: The bridge is there, just as you left it.
[2012-02-19 16:35:25] Ilya: yeah that's fine
[2012-02-19 16:35:28] Ilya: um
[2012-02-19 16:35:33] Ilya: horses can get across right?
[2012-02-19 16:35:42] DM: A good question. Roll up some engineering.
[2012-02-19 16:35:48] DM: Knowledge[Engineering]
[2012-02-19 16:35:59] Aleksei\Gaia: *crickets*
[2012-02-19 16:36:01] Bolgan: wtf is engineering
[2012-02-19 16:36:01] Taranis: !try 7
[2012-02-19 16:36:01] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis :
[2012-02-19 16:36:01] DiceBot: 1d20 < 16 = 16 > + 7 = 23
[2012-02-19 16:36:08] Bolgan: can I make sandwiches with it
[2012-02-19 16:36:09] Aleksei\Gaia: Taranis is like
[2012-02-19 16:36:13] Taranis: something I'll probably invest a rank in next level
[2012-02-19 16:36:15] DM: And the magic 8 ball says...
[2012-02-19 16:36:15] DM: no
[2012-02-19 16:36:16] Aleksei\Gaia: I'm smart and know everything by default
[2012-02-19 16:36:20] Aleksei\Gaia: Bahhh
[2012-02-19 16:36:46] Taranis: well that is frustrating
[2012-02-19 16:36:48] Aleksei\Gaia: What if we repair the bridge
[2012-02-19 16:36:51] Aleksei\Gaia: Maybe build a new bridge
[2012-02-19 16:36:56] Bolgan: with our engineering skill
[2012-02-19 16:36:58] Bolgan: that we have
[2012-02-19 16:36:59] Bolgan: amirite
[2012-02-19 16:37:00] DM: Taranis suspects that the rotten planks are not likely to be able to support a horse's weight for long.
[2012-02-19 16:37:01] Aleksei\Gaia: Yes
[2012-02-19 16:37:03] Aleksei\Gaia: That.
[2012-02-19 16:37:08] Aleksei\Gaia: I mean it seems easy
[2012-02-19 16:37:14] Aleksei\Gaia: Replace the planks
[2012-02-19 16:37:17] Aleksei\Gaia: That are bad
[2012-02-19 16:37:24] Taranis: Well
[2012-02-19 16:37:29] DM: Doable. It'll take you a few days of work. Plus you'll need materials.
[2012-02-19 16:37:33] Bolgan: I will totally chop wood
[2012-02-19 16:37:37] Bolgan: with my bare hands
[2012-02-19 16:37:40] Aleksei\Gaia: There's wood like everywhere
[2012-02-19 16:37:40] Bolgan: test my might, etc.
[2012-02-19 16:37:41] Taranis: What if we hit the planks with mending?
[2012-02-19 16:37:44] Ilya: Ok wait
[2012-02-19 16:37:52] Ilya: Is this a thing befitting our skills
[2012-02-19 16:38:00] Aleksei\Gaia: Well we need to get over there
[2012-02-19 16:38:01] Bolgan: no :-P
[2012-02-19 16:38:02] Ilya: Would it not make more sense to make the forest safe
[2012-02-19 16:38:04] DM: You're in the middle of hills atm. You've got woods about half a day to the northeast
[2012-02-19 16:38:09] Ilya: then get experienced builders in here
[2012-02-19 16:38:09] DM: err, northwest
[2012-02-19 16:38:12] Ilya: to repair it correctly
[2012-02-19 16:38:13] Aleksei\Gaia: This bridge is clearly UNsafe
[2012-02-19 16:38:15] Aleksei\Gaia: If we fix it
[2012-02-19 16:38:19] Aleksei\Gaia: It will thenceforth be safe
[2012-02-19 16:38:25] Ilya: I mean in terms of wildlife and other such dangers
[2012-02-19 16:38:33] Ilya: The kind that might eat bridge builders
[2012-02-19 16:38:34] Aleksei\Gaia: :|
[2012-02-19 16:38:36] Ilya: or rob them or whatever
[2012-02-19 16:38:43] Ilya: Aleksei are you a craftsman
[2012-02-19 16:38:47] Aleksei\Gaia: No
[2012-02-19 16:38:49] Taranis: this is definitely something we can get qualified people to do properly
[2012-02-19 16:38:55] Ilya: Then why are you acting like one
[2012-02-19 16:39:06] Aleksei\Gaia: I didn't say I would be fixing anything >_>
[2012-02-19 16:39:08] Ilya: We'll get the bridge fixed eventually
[2012-02-19 16:39:13] Taranis: Would mending suffice to let us get across?
[2012-02-19 16:39:18] Ilya: Yeah, don't volunteer the services of others.
[2012-02-19 16:39:25] Aleksei\Gaia: I can help!
[2012-02-19 16:39:51] DM: Alright. The verdict is?
[2012-02-19 16:40:26] Taranis: Would mending do enough to the planks to let us cross safely?
[2012-02-19 16:40:30] Taranis: forgetting about long-term?
[2012-02-19 16:40:43] Taranis: if not, how wide is the river?
[2012-02-19 16:41:10] Ilya: If not let's just find the next crossing.
[2012-02-19 16:41:31] Taranis: (might be able to cross via floating disk if it's < 30 ft wide)
[2012-02-19 16:41:45] » DM left the chat room.
[2012-02-19 16:41:51] Ilya: lol
[2012-02-19 16:41:52] » xthehome joined the chat room.
[2012-02-19 16:41:54] Bolgan: aww
[2012-02-19 16:42:07] Taranis: Clearly the idea of using magic to avoid mundane issues killed the DM
[2012-02-19 16:42:08] » xthehome is now known as DM.
[2012-02-19 16:42:16] DM: ok… so what's the verdict?
[2012-02-19 16:42:22] Taranis: (mending repairs 1d4 points of damage to objects; would this work on the bridge planks?)
[2012-02-19 16:42:43] Ilya: ^- answer question
[2012-02-19 16:42:47] Ilya: then verdict
[2012-02-19 16:42:47] DM: Fair enough. It'd take about a day or so.
[2012-02-19 16:42:57] Aleksei\Gaia: A day to cast Mending?
[2012-02-19 16:43:03] Elias: Elias has no real carpentry skills
[2012-02-19 16:43:04] Taranis: to cast it umpteen times
[2012-02-19 16:43:05] DM: A day to cast mending repeatedly.
[2012-02-19 16:43:07] Taranis: or we can just go around
[2012-02-19 16:43:13] Ilya: the bridge has taken 1000000d4 damage
[2012-02-19 16:43:19] DM: I mean… not an entire day.
[2012-02-19 16:43:22] Aleksei\Gaia: So now hang on
[2012-02-19 16:43:30] Aleksei\Gaia: Would that cause the bridge to be fixed permanently?
[2012-02-19 16:43:32] Elias: so he's probably either is reading his books or tending the centipede eggs
[2012-02-19 16:43:35] Taranis: at least a couple hours, and tomorrow since I do not have the spell prepared
[2012-02-19 16:43:58] DM: Well, let's say 2 hours of effort would get the bridge to a point where Large creatures could probably cross it one at a time safely.
[2012-02-19 16:44:09] Taranis: (more to the point, we'd have to mending each plank, rather than the whole bridge)
[2012-02-19 16:44:32] Ilya: Well Aleksei
[2012-02-19 16:44:37] Ilya: You want to do that?
[2012-02-19 16:44:47] Taranis: So, rest, prep mending, and do some work on the bridge, or ride around to another bridge?
[2012-02-19 16:44:48] DM: That… would probably get you to the thicket by the end of the day.
[2012-02-19 16:44:58] Ilya: well Aleksei can do it, right?
[2012-02-19 16:45:02] Ilya: mending is a cleric spell
[2012-02-19 16:45:03] Aleksei\Gaia: I can?
[2012-02-19 16:45:05] Aleksei\Gaia: Oh
[2012-02-19 16:45:06] Ilya: right?
[2012-02-19 16:45:06] Aleksei\Gaia: Then sure
[2012-02-19 16:45:07] Taranis: (I've put the dust of illusion on the party inventory)
[2012-02-19 16:45:23] Taranis: (it is everything but magus 0; poor garic)
[2012-02-19 16:45:25] DM: A ford actually, but yes.
[2012-02-19 16:45:39] Aleksei\Gaia: So sure
[2012-02-19 16:45:42] DM: ok… So… Aleksei and Taranis are going at it?
[2012-02-19 16:45:48] Aleksei\Gaia: I'll prep Mending tomorrow
[2012-02-19 16:45:51] DM: Ok.
[2012-02-19 16:45:52] Taranis: We have to prepare it tomorrow
[2012-02-19 16:45:53] Aleksei\Gaia: And fix things
[2012-02-19 16:45:54] Ilya: oh so we're going to rest here?
[2012-02-19 16:45:56] Taranis: neither of us have it prepared
[2012-02-19 16:45:56] Ilya: fine whatevs
[2012-02-19 16:46:05] DM: ok
[2012-02-19 16:46:07] Ilya: yeah I don't know how 0 level spells work
[2012-02-19 16:46:09] Ilya: my bad
[2012-02-19 16:46:22] Taranis: cast at-will, but need to prepare them as usual if a prepared caster
[2012-02-19 16:46:33] Aleksei\Gaia: Yep
[2012-02-19 16:46:47] DM: You get the bridge stabilized a bit. It still needs a bunch of work, but you feel confident that it'll support your horses now.
[2012-02-19 16:46:53] Taranis: good enough for now
[2012-02-19 16:47:05] DM: At least, support one at a time.
[2012-02-19 16:47:11] Ilya: and nothing attacks us in the night
[2012-02-19 16:47:12] Taranis: Once we cross I'll be reading that book via comprehend languages
[2012-02-19 16:47:14] DM: Nope.
[2012-02-19 16:47:20] Ilya: good
[2012-02-19 16:47:35] DM: The book's contents will be provided via forum post.
[2012-02-19 16:49:07] DM: Now that that's done, you spend the better part of a day exploring the area and looking for the berries.
[2012-02-19 16:50:01] DM: Finally, you arrive in a long, thin valley between two low hills, within which lies a dense patch of rasberry-like bushes.
[2012-02-19 16:50:18] DM: The thorny thicket is draped in the white gossamer silk of spider webs.
[2012-02-19 16:50:38] Aleksei\Gaia: Hmmm
[2012-02-19 16:50:52] DM: Harvesting the berries goes slowly -- Accessing the best berries without getting lacerated by the thousands of thorns is tricky.
[2012-02-19 16:50:57] DM: Roll up some survival checks.
[2012-02-19 16:51:00] DM: 4
[2012-02-19 16:51:20] DM: One person, 4 checks for the entire party.
[2012-02-19 16:51:26] Elias: guess that'd be me
[2012-02-19 16:51:35] Elias: !try 9 9 9 9
[2012-02-19 16:51:35] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Elias :
[2012-02-19 16:51:35] DiceBot: 1d20 < 9 = 9 > + 9 = 18
[2012-02-19 16:51:35] DiceBot: 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 9 = 22
[2012-02-19 16:51:35] DiceBot: 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 9 = 22
[2012-02-19 16:51:35] DiceBot: 1d20 < 10 = 10 > + 9 = 19
[2012-02-19 16:51:41] Bolgan: hella survival
[2012-02-19 16:51:51] Bolgan: do we live?
[2012-02-19 16:52:09] DM: Alright… Well, Elias manages to direct you in a way that avoids the brunt of the thorns… but the party still takes...
[2012-02-19 16:52:14] DM: !roll 2d6
[2012-02-19 16:52:14] DiceBot: rolls dice for DM : 2d6 < 1 4 = 5 > = 5
[2012-02-19 16:52:21] DM: 5 points of damage from the thorny vines.
[2012-02-19 16:52:30] Trip: Can one use slight of hand for picking berries?
[2012-02-19 16:52:39] Bolgan: fuck your thorns
[2012-02-19 16:52:47] DM: Yeah, they're real pricks.
[2012-02-19 16:52:56] Aleksei\Gaia: ow
[2012-02-19 16:52:58] Ilya: that is a lot of damage
[2012-02-19 16:53:00] Ilya: from thorns
[2012-02-19 16:53:05] DM: They're really sharp.
[2012-02-19 16:53:05] Aleksei\Gaia: channel energy
[2012-02-19 16:53:09] Aleksei\Gaia: !roll 1d6
[2012-02-19 16:53:09] DiceBot: rolls dice for Aleksei\Gaia : 1d6 < 6 = 6 > = 6
[2012-02-19 16:53:12] Bolgan: this is why commoners don't pick berries
[2012-02-19 16:53:13] DM: Ok.
[2012-02-19 16:53:14] Taranis: that's also like… half an hour or more of picking berries
[2012-02-19 16:53:16] Bolgan: or fight housecats
[2012-02-19 16:53:33] Aleksei\Gaia: The goddess heals those who... pick berries...! I guess.
[2012-02-19 16:53:34] Trip: I maintain that since all I have is dex, I should at least have a chance to employ it.
[2012-02-19 16:53:39] Bolgan: Joe down the street would've fallen unconscious
[2012-02-19 16:53:47] Aleksei\Gaia: Blood loss
[2012-02-19 16:53:48] Aleksei\Gaia: It's a bitch
[2012-02-19 16:53:50] Aleksei\Gaia: nods
[2012-02-19 16:54:05] DM: Aleksei manages to heal the party's lacertated hands.
[2012-02-19 16:54:18] DM: Now, as you're picking berries...
[2012-02-19 16:54:23] DM: you also attract some attention.
[2012-02-19 16:55:29] DM: About halfway thorugh the process, a spider pops up and bites Aleksei.
[2012-02-19 16:55:37] Aleksei\Gaia: Whaaaaat
[2012-02-19 16:55:38] DM: Then several more appear nearby.
[2012-02-19 16:55:53] Ilya: remember what I said about exterminating nature
[2012-02-19 16:55:55] DM: In fact… an entire swarm of them surrounds Aleksei.
[2012-02-19 16:55:59] Aleksei\Gaia: :(
[2012-02-19 16:56:07] Bolgan: but it's ok
[2012-02-19 16:56:12] Aleksei\Gaia: It's because of the butterfly, isn't it
[2012-02-19 16:56:12] Ilya: This... this right here is what I'm talking about
[2012-02-19 16:56:13] Bolgan: that spider was radioactive, right?
[2012-02-19 16:56:18] Aleksei\Gaia: They mistook my holy symbol for a meal
[2012-02-19 16:56:26] Bolgan: now he's all spiderman 'n shit, right?
[2012-02-19 16:56:31] Aleksei\Gaia: It's so purple and shiny
[2012-02-19 16:56:42] Bolgan: slinging webs, sticking to shit, Ultimate Spider . . .
[2012-02-19 16:56:50] Aleksei\Gaia: how do i shot web :|
[2012-02-19 16:57:15] Ilya: look out, here comes the Spider Man
[2012-02-19 16:57:18] Aleksei\Gaia: So yeah I guess some stuff needs to be exterminated
[2012-02-19 16:57:22] Elias: Why is it everyone is making Elias cry by exterminating his friends?
[2012-02-19 16:57:23] Ilya: Crawler Assault up in this bitch
[2012-02-19 16:57:23] Aleksei\Gaia: But only the evil nature
[2012-02-19 16:57:33] Aleksei\Gaia: Well look, the nature started it!
[2012-02-19 16:57:37] Bolgan: I nominate Trip to become the Wolverine member of this party
[2012-02-19 16:57:38] Ilya: That's why JJ pays me the big bucks?
[2012-02-19 16:57:40] Aleksei\Gaia: I'm all for peace and friendliness
[2012-02-19 16:57:51] Ilya: berserker barrage?
[2012-02-19 16:58:20] Elias: You're talking about exterminating it! how is defending itself 'starting it'?
[2012-02-19 16:58:25] Taranis: Clearly I am Dr. Strange.
[2012-02-19 16:58:42] Aleksei\Gaia: It started it BEFORE we exterminated anything!
[2012-02-19 16:58:52] DM: I… direct your attention to http://hugin.xthemage.net/hugin/?instance=kingmaker
[2012-02-19 16:58:53] Aleksei\Gaia: We're only exterminating as a last resort.

[2012-02-19 17:01:14] Bolgan: so spider swarms
[2012-02-19 17:01:21] Bolgan: I can't punch those
[2012-02-19 17:01:21] DM: Ilya. You see Aleksei getting swarmed by spiders.
[2012-02-19 17:01:29] DM: And you see more spiders incoming.
[2012-02-19 17:01:33] Ilya: yeah so iirc spiders are like
[2012-02-19 17:01:36] Ilya: diminuitive?
[2012-02-19 17:01:39] DM: Yep
[2012-02-19 17:01:39] Ilya: or fine?
[2012-02-19 17:01:44] DM: Diminutive
[2012-02-19 17:01:45] Bolgan: fine-ass bitches
[2012-02-19 17:01:47] Taranis: Right, I don't think we have any options
[2012-02-19 17:01:48] Ilya: and thus their swarms are immune to weapond amage?
[2012-02-19 17:01:56] DM: That is correct
[2012-02-19 17:02:01] Ilya: sooooo
[2012-02-19 17:02:12] Ilya: we are forced to retreat?
[2012-02-19 17:02:18] DM: Do you?
[2012-02-19 17:02:21] Ilya: since this party is 90% weapon damage
[2012-02-19 17:02:22] Taranis: also spells like magic missile, ray of frost?
[2012-02-19 17:02:24] Ilya: yes?
[2012-02-19 17:02:41] Ilya: i mean I hate to say we ran away from spiders
[2012-02-19 17:02:41] Taranis: Yeah, we have zero offensive options
[2012-02-19 17:02:45] Taranis: can Elias talk them out of this?
[2012-02-19 17:02:45] Ilya: but I see no other options
[2012-02-19 17:02:54] DM: Ok, Ilya retreats
[2012-02-19 17:03:14] Ilya: well
[2012-02-19 17:03:16] Ilya: i meant all of us
[2012-02-19 17:03:21] Taranis: My "offensive" options are: Sleep & one hydraulic push
[2012-02-19 17:03:24] DM: Ilya… delays?
[2012-02-19 17:03:27] Ilya: um
[2012-02-19 17:03:28] Aleksei\Gaia: I have an idea
[2012-02-19 17:03:29] Aleksei\Gaia: But
[2012-02-19 17:03:31] Ilya: no I'm just saying
[2012-02-19 17:03:34] Aleksei\Gaia: We'll see
[2012-02-19 17:03:35] Ilya: we're all running away
[2012-02-19 17:03:38] Ilya: or we're all fighting somehow
[2012-02-19 17:03:48] Ilya: if you feel the need to go through in turn order
[2012-02-19 17:03:52] Ilya: then ok I guess?
[2012-02-19 17:03:58] Ilya: if anyone has any ideas
[2012-02-19 17:04:00] Taranis: We do not have fireballs
[2012-02-19 17:04:01] Ilya: then just say so now
[2012-02-19 17:04:01] DM: Well, let me put it another way...
[2012-02-19 17:04:02] Bolgan: well I can do literally nothing
[2012-02-19 17:04:09] DM: You're the only one who acts before the spiders.
[2012-02-19 17:04:10] Aleksei\Gaia: Guys
[2012-02-19 17:04:12] Aleksei\Gaia: Use torches
[2012-02-19 17:04:19] Ilya: we have torches?
[2012-02-19 17:04:24] Aleksei\Gaia: I have 10 torches
[2012-02-19 17:04:26] Ilya: I have 0
[2012-02-19 17:04:28] Taranis: I have one vial of alchemist's fire. I have one Sleep spell. I have one Hydraulic Push and two Ear-Piercing Screams… this does not sound promising
[2012-02-19 17:04:32] Aleksei\Gaia: Grab some from my saddlebags
[2012-02-19 17:04:38] Ilya: Ok.
[2012-02-19 17:04:45] Ilya: does so
[2012-02-19 17:04:47] Taranis: maybe they would listen to Elias saying "nice spiders, we taste bad"
[2012-02-19 17:05:17] Ilya: How do I light these things...
[2012-02-19 17:05:20] DM: Alright… Nikolai runs over to Aleksei and grabs some torches.
[2012-02-19 17:05:32] Ilya: yes, Nikolai does that
[2012-02-19 17:05:33] DM: A good question!
[2012-02-19 17:05:34] Ilya: :p
[2012-02-19 17:05:34] Bolgan: how about we light that lower-case t over there on fire
[2012-02-19 17:05:47] Bolgan: the one that stands for "time to leave"
[2012-02-19 17:05:51] Taranis: No, Nikolai picks one of his low-level spells and explodes everything, including us.
[2012-02-19 17:05:55] Ilya: yes
[2012-02-19 17:05:56] Taranis: Ilya grabs some torches
[2012-02-19 17:06:00] DM: err… Ilya
[2012-02-19 17:06:04] DM: /forehead
[2012-02-19 17:06:08] Ilya: Nikolai is like FLAMESTRIKE
[2012-02-19 17:06:12] Ilya: and things explode
[2012-02-19 17:06:14] DM: Ilya runs over and grabs torches.
[2012-02-19 17:06:22] DM: And… let's see.
[2012-02-19 17:06:23] Ilya: runs to Aleksei's horse
[2012-02-19 17:06:26] Ilya: grabs torches
[2012-02-19 17:06:29] Ilya: out of actions
[2012-02-19 17:07:12] DM: The spiders swarm Ilya, Aleksei and Taranis.
[2012-02-19 17:07:18] DM: !roll 1d6

[2012-02-19 17:09:11] DM: indeed.
[2012-02-19 17:09:38] DM: Aleksei gets a rather nasty bite from a venomous spider.
[2012-02-19 17:09:42] Aleksei\Gaia: ow
[2012-02-19 17:09:53] DM: Ok… What's everyone doing?
[2012-02-19 17:10:09] Ilya: getting bit by spiders apparently
[2012-02-19 17:10:21] Bolgan: r-u-n-n-o-f-t, doodah, doodah
[2012-02-19 17:10:50] Taranis: which direction are we running?
[2012-02-19 17:10:58] DM: Well… more precisely, what is the general strategy now?
[2012-02-19 17:11:04] Ilya: why did i get these torches if we're running
[2012-02-19 17:11:08] DM: Are you doing something other than running?
[2012-02-19 17:11:21] Elias: it's impossible to empathy a swarm isn't it
[2012-02-19 17:11:39] Ilya: someone come over here and light these torches
[2012-02-19 17:11:56] Aleksei\Gaia: No one's running
[2012-02-19 17:12:00] Taranis: well then
[2012-02-19 17:12:02] Aleksei\Gaia: Someone's going to light the torches
[2012-02-19 17:12:03] DM: They're listed as vermin
[2012-02-19 17:12:05] Aleksei\Gaia: Like maybe me
[2012-02-19 17:12:12] Aleksei\Gaia: I was going to get some lamp oil
[2012-02-19 17:12:13] Elias: I'll try empathying them?
[2012-02-19 17:12:14] Aleksei\Gaia: Spill it
[2012-02-19 17:12:19] Aleksei\Gaia: Lure the swarms into it
[2012-02-19 17:12:21] Elias: before they set them on fire?
[2012-02-19 17:12:22] Aleksei\Gaia: And light it up
[2012-02-19 17:12:26] Trip: I figured we were smiting.
[2012-02-19 17:12:34] Taranis: If that fails, I will move and hydraulic push a swarm away
[2012-02-19 17:12:46] Aleksei: fyi:
[2012-02-19 17:12:47] Aleksei: Vulnerabilities Of Swarms
[2012-02-19 17:12:47] Aleksei: Swarms are extremely difficult to fight with physical attacks. However, they have a few special vulnerabilities, as follows:
[2012-02-19 17:12:47] Aleksei: A lit torch swung as an improvised weapon deals 1d3 points of fire damage per hit.
[2012-02-19 17:13:09] Aleksei\Gaia: As for the lamp oil, I dunno, Oliver will have to decide how/if that works, damage-wise
[2012-02-19 17:13:10] DM: Roll up the empathy.
[2012-02-19 17:13:11] Elias: right well I'll try wild empathy
[2012-02-19 17:13:13] Aleksei\Gaia: Seems like it should though
[2012-02-19 17:13:20] Elias: !try 3
[2012-02-19 17:13:20] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Elias :
[2012-02-19 17:13:21] DiceBot: 1d20 < 18 = 18 > + 3 = 21
[2012-02-19 17:13:23] Ilya: did we have any extra alchemist's fire?
[2012-02-19 17:13:41] Taranis: I have a vial of it
[2012-02-19 17:13:44] Aleksei: A pint of oil burns for 6 hours in a lantern or lamp. You can also use a flask of oil as a splash weapon. Use the rules for alchemist's fire (see Special Substances and Items on Table: Goods and Services), except that it takes a full-round action to prepare a flask with a fuse. Once it is thrown, there is a 50% chance of the flask igniting successfully.
[2012-02-19 17:13:49] Ilya: so that can light the torches
[2012-02-19 17:13:54] Ilya: after you throw it at the swarm
[2012-02-19 17:13:54] Aleksei: I have 10 pints of it.
[2012-02-19 17:14:01] Ilya: and then we can pour lamp oil
[2012-02-19 17:14:05] Ilya: to fuel it
[2012-02-19 17:14:06] Taranis: let's see what the empathy does?
[2012-02-19 17:14:13] DM: Indeed.
[2012-02-19 17:14:16] Aleksei: Also I can cast Spark
[2012-02-19 17:14:18] DM: Well…
[2012-02-19 17:14:19] Aleksei: As I have it prepped
[2012-02-19 17:14:31] Ilya: does that work?
[2012-02-19 17:14:32] Ilya: ok
[2012-02-19 17:15:35] DM: Elias is unable to distract the swarm with soothing words alone, but is able to get them off of you by throwing a bunch of rations off to the side.
[2012-02-19 17:15:53] Ilya: oh what come on we need those :(
[2012-02-19 17:15:57] DM: Tick off a day's worth of rations.
[2012-02-19 17:16:09] Elias: sigh
[2012-02-19 17:16:20] Trip: rations for everyone or just Elias?
[2012-02-19 17:16:21] Elias: guess I'll just stick with my centipedes then
[2012-02-19 17:16:28] Aleksei\Gaia: The spiders think I am less delicious than rations?!
[2012-02-19 17:16:34] Aleksei\Gaia: I AM VAGUELY INSULTED
[2012-02-19 17:16:38] DM: Elias is able to convince them of this, yes.
[2012-02-19 17:16:48] Bolgan: I'm not even remotely tasty
[2012-02-19 17:16:58] DM: Dwarves generally aren't.
[2012-02-19 17:16:59] Aleksei\Gaia: Well Elias must be a champion empthyer then!
[2012-02-19 17:17:05] Aleksei\Gaia: Because that is clearly false
[2012-02-19 17:17:19] DM: Well, they did snack a bit.
[2012-02-19 17:17:27] DM: So… Aleksei, roll up some more fort if you would.
[2012-02-19 17:17:35] Trip: Have you tried eating a band-aid? Ick.
[2012-02-19 17:17:48] Aleksei\Gaia: So um
[2012-02-19 17:17:53] Aleksei\Gaia: What happened when I failed the first fort save
[2012-02-19 17:17:55] Aleksei\Gaia: Anything?
[2012-02-19 17:17:57] DM: Poisoned.
[2012-02-19 17:17:59] Aleksei\Gaia: And?
[2012-02-19 17:18:04] DM: And now we find out what happens.
[2012-02-19 17:18:07] Aleksei\Gaia: ok
[2012-02-19 17:18:07] DM: Roll some more fort.
[2012-02-19 17:18:10] Aleksei\Gaia: One or two
[2012-02-19 17:18:13] Aleksei\Gaia: I guess one

[2012-02-19 17:18:19] DM: 2.
[2012-02-19 17:18:23] Aleksei\Gaia: Oh yeah absolutely
[2012-02-19 17:18:23] DM: err, just 1
[2012-02-19 17:18:29] Aleksei\Gaia: Burn them so hard
[2012-02-19 17:18:42] Taranis: Since Elias can't make friends with them… looks like it
[2012-02-19 17:18:44] Ilya: should be easy now that they're distracted
[2012-02-19 17:19:06] DM: Well, just to be clear...
[2012-02-19 17:19:16] DM: Wild empathy doesn't make you friends with a critter.
[2012-02-19 17:19:52] DM: Just like the changes to diplomacy, it lets you influence a critter's reaction.
[2012-02-19 17:20:08] DM: Like for example by getting it to not attack you.
[2012-02-19 17:20:22] DM: Anything beyond that requires a concerted long-term effort.
[2012-02-19 17:20:32] DM: And animal handling checks.
[2012-02-19 17:20:56] Ilya: In any case
[2012-02-19 17:21:00] Ilya: they're eating our rations
[2012-02-19 17:21:08] Ilya: so we light our torches over here
[2012-02-19 17:21:11] Ilya: and pour oil on them
[2012-02-19 17:21:12] Ilya: a
[2012-02-19 17:21:14] Ilya: nd roast them
[2012-02-19 17:21:17] Ilya: the end
[2012-02-19 17:21:48] DM: (or, well, vermin handling, in this case)
[2012-02-19 17:22:32] Taranis: so whose turn is it?
[2012-02-19 17:22:54] DM: Well, since the spiders are distracted… let's use the same init but with you having a surprise round.
[2012-02-19 17:22:54] Ilya: I don't see a reason to continue with init
[2012-02-19 17:22:59] Bolgan: sounds to me like we just won
[2012-02-19 17:22:59] Ilya: given the plan I just laid out
[2012-02-19 17:23:06] Ilya: but in case I'm wrong
[2012-02-19 17:23:26] DM: Well… if that's what you're doing...
[2012-02-19 17:23:30] Ilya: Aleksei goes first and lights the torches
[2012-02-19 17:23:34] Ilya: I'll hand them out
[2012-02-19 17:23:39] DM: That's two touch attacks for the oil.
[2012-02-19 17:23:39] Ilya: someone else grabs the lamp oil
[2012-02-19 17:23:48] Ilya: ok so someone with good dex and bab
[2012-02-19 17:23:50] DM: two ranged touch attacks for the oil.
[2012-02-19 17:23:55] Ilya: that would be Elias
[2012-02-19 17:23:57] Ilya: or Trip
[2012-02-19 17:24:02] Ilya: or both
[2012-02-19 17:24:03] Ilya: really
[2012-02-19 17:24:08] Ilya: so Elias and Trip throw some oil.
[2012-02-19 17:24:15] Aleksei: Yeps
[2012-02-19 17:24:20] Bolgan: leads cheer
[2012-02-19 17:24:27] Ilya: and then Taranis and Bolgan use their torches to set it afire
[2012-02-19 17:24:32] Ilya: that's a round worth of stuff
[2012-02-19 17:24:40] Elias: Sometimes I hate my job.....
[2012-02-19 17:24:46] Bolgan: ra, ra, sis boom ba 'n shit
[2012-02-19 17:24:59] Aleksei: spark
[2012-02-19 17:24:59] Elias: throws some oil
[2012-02-19 17:25:24] Elias: !try 6
[2012-02-19 17:25:24] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Elias :
[2012-02-19 17:25:24] DiceBot: 1d20 < 2 = 2 > + 6 = 8
[2012-02-19 17:25:42] DM: well… that… doesn't quite hit.
[2012-02-19 17:25:44] Taranis: Honestly, I am most likely to set fire via versatile evocation'd ray of frost
[2012-02-19 17:25:57] DM: !roll 1d8
[2012-02-19 17:25:57] DiceBot: rolls dice for DM : 1d8 < 3 = 3 > = 3
[2012-02-19 17:25:59] Ilya: that's a thing you can do?
[2012-02-19 17:26:11] Taranis: 3+Int/day, I can change energy type on an evocation
[2012-02-19 17:26:17] Ilya: ok so do that!
[2012-02-19 17:26:20] Taranis: Yep
[2012-02-19 17:26:25] Taranis: it takes my touch from −1 to +1!
[2012-02-19 17:26:57] DM: Well, that oil doesn't quite hit much of the spider swarm.
[2012-02-19 17:27:10] DM: The splash gets some of the swarm in it, but not a huce amount.
[2012-02-19 17:27:11] DM: Trip?
[2012-02-19 17:27:16] Elias: told you I'd pay for those good rolls eariler
[2012-02-19 17:27:18] DM: Also throwing.
[2012-02-19 17:27:24] Taranis: alternatley, I could push the swarm into the oil, but that involves water
[2012-02-19 17:27:25] DM: Also throwing?
[2012-02-19 17:27:41] Ilya: Trip is throwing if she wants to roll :P
[2012-02-19 17:28:46] Ilya: but maybe she doesn't!
[2012-02-19 17:28:49] Ilya: or maybe she exploded
[2012-02-19 17:28:52] Ilya: perhaps she...
[2012-02-19 17:28:53] Ilya: Tripped
[2012-02-19 17:28:56] DM: perhaps.
[2012-02-19 17:29:02] Ilya: glasses
[2012-02-19 17:29:08] Ilya: YEEEEEEEEEEAH
[2012-02-19 17:29:18] DM: ok… well, someone roll a d20
[2012-02-19 17:29:19] Bolgan: :|
[2012-02-19 17:29:56] DM: >.<
[2012-02-19 17:30:09] Ilya: !try 0
[2012-02-19 17:30:09] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Ilya :
[2012-02-19 17:30:09] DiceBot: 1d20 < 16 = 16 > + 0 = 16
[2012-02-19 17:30:10] Trip: sorry
[2012-02-19 17:30:15] Ilya: there, take my roll
[2012-02-19 17:30:15] DM: Aha. There we go.
[2012-02-19 17:30:16] Ilya: it's good.
[2012-02-19 17:30:41] Trip: so are we running or fighting?
[2012-02-19 17:30:44] DM: Is Trip throwing oil at the poor defenseless spiders, or standing by and leaving them be.
[2012-02-19 17:30:59] Ilya: we're killing these spiders.
[2012-02-19 17:31:10] DM: Elias got them off of you. They're now on the side munching on some of your rations.
[2012-02-19 17:31:23] Trip: Why throw oil if I can throw axes?
[2012-02-19 17:31:31] DM: Axes won't do much to the swarm.
[2012-02-19 17:31:42] Trip: Fine I'll throw oil
[2012-02-19 17:31:43] Ilya: because the oil will light on fire.
[2012-02-19 17:31:48] Ilya: and fire kills swarms
[2012-02-19 17:31:52] Ilya: axes don't kill anything.
[2012-02-19 17:31:52] Trip: ahhhhhh
[2012-02-19 17:31:58] Ilya: swarms are like
[2012-02-19 17:32:00] Ilya: lol weapons
[2012-02-19 17:32:07] Ilya: I am 1 inch long
[2012-02-19 17:32:09] Trip: !try 6
[2012-02-19 17:32:09] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Trip :
[2012-02-19 17:32:09] DiceBot: 1d20 < 18 = 18 > + 6 = 24
[2012-02-19 17:32:11] Ilya: you can't attack me
[2012-02-19 17:32:17] DM: Ok, well… that batch hits.
[2012-02-19 17:32:26] DM: Taranis does some lighting at this point?
[2012-02-19 17:32:31] Taranis: sure
[2012-02-19 17:32:32] Taranis: !try 1
[2012-02-19 17:32:32] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis :
[2012-02-19 17:32:32] DiceBot: 1d20 < 9 = 9 > + 1 = 10
[2012-02-19 17:32:42] DM: Enough to hit the swarm.
[2012-02-19 17:32:57] DM: The oil ignites doing… 1d6 x2 I believe
[2012-02-19 17:33:15] Taranis: !roll 2d6
[2012-02-19 17:33:15] DiceBot: rolls dice for Taranis : 2d6 < 4 2 = 6 > = 6
[2012-02-19 17:33:20] Trip: Spider kabobs
[2012-02-19 17:33:29] DM: Mmm, no, x1.5
[2012-02-19 17:33:35] DM: so that's… 6 damage
[2012-02-19 17:33:54] DM: Everyone else carrying a lit torch, have at it.
[2012-02-19 17:34:24] Ilya: so for this round
[2012-02-19 17:34:28] Ilya: Bolgan has a torch
[2012-02-19 17:34:33] Ilya: everyone else did stuff
[2012-02-19 17:34:36] DM: That's… Bolgan, Ilya, and Aleksei.
[2012-02-19 17:34:39] Ilya: unless we're in the next round
[2012-02-19 17:34:40] Bolgan: very well
[2012-02-19 17:34:41] Ilya: hm
[2012-02-19 17:34:47] Ilya: I thought I consumed my actions handing out torches
[2012-02-19 17:34:48] DM: Y'all had prep time.
[2012-02-19 17:34:51] Ilya: ok
[2012-02-19 17:34:52] Ilya: good
[2012-02-19 17:34:59] Bolgan: so am I swinging with this bitch
[2012-02-19 17:35:00] Ilya: !try 5
[2012-02-19 17:35:00] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Ilya :
[2012-02-19 17:35:00] DiceBot: 1d20 < 9 = 9 > + 5 = 14
[2012-02-19 17:35:04] Bolgan: or throwing a bitch
[2012-02-19 17:35:07] Ilya: swinging
[2012-02-19 17:35:10] Aleksei\Gaia: !try 2
[2012-02-19 17:35:10] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Aleksei\Gaia :

[2012-02-19 17:35:13] DM: That there is some misses.
[2012-02-19 17:35:23] Aleksei\Gaia: Blarrrrgh
[2012-02-19 17:35:26] Aleksei\Gaia: fucking spiders
[2012-02-19 17:35:27] Bolgan: !try 3

[2012-02-19 17:35:40] DM: Right then.
[2012-02-19 17:36:03] Ilya: so wait that's a miss
[2012-02-19 17:36:05] Ilya: ?
[2012-02-19 17:36:08] DM: Quite
[2012-02-19 17:36:10] Ilya: wow
[2012-02-19 17:36:21] DM: Agile little beasties.
[2012-02-19 17:36:25] Ilya: so the oil is all ignited though
[2012-02-19 17:36:28] DM: Yep
[2012-02-19 17:36:31] Ilya: ok...
[2012-02-19 17:36:46] Trip: burn baby burn
[2012-02-19 17:37:15] DM: Let's see here.
[2012-02-19 17:37:27] DM: Well, one of the two batches of oil.
[2012-02-19 17:37:29] DM: The other one missed.
[2012-02-19 17:37:37] DM: http://hugin.xthemage.net/hugin/?instance=kingmaker
[2012-02-19 17:37:39] Ilya: missed the swarm
[2012-02-19 17:37:41] DM: yes.
[2012-02-19 17:37:46] DM: It is marked.
[2012-02-19 17:38:03] Ilya: well we should try and keep the swarm in one of the two oiled areas
[2012-02-19 17:38:24] Bolgan: don't we have the berries? is this some grudge against vermin here?
[2012-02-19 17:38:30] Ilya: yes
[2012-02-19 17:38:34] DM: Sounds like some sort of grudge.
[2012-02-19 17:38:36] Aleksei\Gaia: Yes it is.
[2012-02-19 17:38:39] Ilya: Look
[2012-02-19 17:38:43] Ilya: If we go around not killing things
[2012-02-19 17:38:43] Elias: I hate you all....I'm going home
[2012-02-19 17:38:44] Taranis: I have something that can bull rush a swarm, I guess… but it would put fires out
[2012-02-19 17:38:46] Ilya: We're not doing our job
[2012-02-19 17:38:48] DM: Aleksei and Ilya are being mean to the poor defenseless spiders.
[2012-02-19 17:38:51] Aleksei\Gaia: The reason we had to come over here and pick these damn berries
[2012-02-19 17:38:53] Aleksei\Gaia: For that jerk druid
[2012-02-19 17:38:59] Taranis: I believe this was actually halfway through the berry-picking
[2012-02-19 17:39:00] Aleksei\Gaia: Is because he was afraid of these very spiders
[2012-02-19 17:39:02] Ilya: The entire reason we're here
[2012-02-19 17:39:08] Ilya: is to make the forest safe for people
[2012-02-19 17:39:09] Aleksei\Gaia: If we kill the spiders
[2012-02-19 17:39:13] Ilya: spider swarms are not safe for people
[2012-02-19 17:39:15] DM: Well, no… he was afraid of bandits.
[2012-02-19 17:39:15] Aleksei\Gaia: Then he can get his own damn berries next time
[2012-02-19 17:39:18] Aleksei\Gaia: Ok whatever
[2012-02-19 17:39:23] Aleksei\Gaia: Everyone's afraid of something
[2012-02-19 17:39:29] Aleksei\Gaia: We kill everything and everyone is safe forever
[2012-02-19 17:39:32] Ilya: Anything that goes and kills people is a thing we need to kill
[2012-02-19 17:39:34] Ilya: Yep
[2012-02-19 17:39:36] DM: Erm...
[2012-02-19 17:39:43] DM: I… don't think Desna sees it that way >.>
[2012-02-19 17:39:52] Aleksei\Gaia: Hey
[2012-02-19 17:39:53] Ilya: lol
[2012-02-19 17:39:54] Elias: *I* don't see it that way!
[2012-02-19 17:40:00] Aleksei\Gaia: Did you see me being diplomatic with pixies
[2012-02-19 17:40:01] Aleksei\Gaia: Yes you did
[2012-02-19 17:40:09] Aleksei\Gaia: Also with kobolds? Again yes
[2012-02-19 17:40:20] Ilya: That was me.
[2012-02-19 17:40:26] Ilya: <- diplomacy skill
[2012-02-19 17:40:26] DM: It's true.
[2012-02-19 17:40:29] Aleksei\Gaia: IT WAS MY IDEA SHUT UP
[2012-02-19 17:40:35] Ilya: no
[2012-02-19 17:40:38] Ilya: :P
[2012-02-19 17:40:40] DM: Actually, no… it was Ilya's.
[2012-02-19 17:40:44] Ilya: it's true
[2012-02-19 17:40:45] Aleksei\Gaia: ?!
[2012-02-19 17:40:47] Ilya: review the last session log
[2012-02-19 17:40:48] Aleksei\Gaia: gtfo no way
[2012-02-19 17:40:51] Ilya: when you NPCed me
[2012-02-19 17:40:52] Elias: you're interpretting our charter as an excuse to murder all of nature?!
[2012-02-19 17:40:52] DM: (Ian might not have been playing him at the time...)
[2012-02-19 17:40:58] Ilya: >:D
[2012-02-19 17:41:01] Aleksei\Gaia: Ok well
[2012-02-19 17:41:02] Aleksei\Gaia: Point is
[2012-02-19 17:41:04] Aleksei\Gaia: If things don't want me to kill them then they should be nice
[2012-02-19 17:41:17] Aleksei\Gaia: That is totally the Desna philosophy.
[2012-02-19 17:41:18] Ilya: Only the parts of nature that attack us.
[2012-02-19 17:41:25] Ilya: Like these spiders.
[2012-02-19 17:41:44] Elias: they're likely defending their nests!
[2012-02-19 17:41:54] Elias: if we leave, then everyone lives
[2012-02-19 17:42:01] Trip: Or trying to provide for their nests.
[2012-02-19 17:42:06] Aleksei\Gaia: Well they should put their nests somewhere where there aren't berries that people need!
[2012-02-19 17:42:20] Elias: we're the intruders here! There are other berry patches
[2012-02-19 17:42:36] Aleksei\Gaia: THese spiders bit me!
[2012-02-19 17:42:41] Elias: and you lived
[2012-02-19 17:43:04] Aleksei\Gaia: :|
[2012-02-19 17:43:05] Ilya: That seems like strange logic
[2012-02-19 17:43:18] Ilya: Why should spiders be allowed to bite me just because I'm super badass
[2012-02-19 17:43:21] Ilya: and can take it
[2012-02-19 17:44:15] Elias: the same reason why we allowed those bandits to live
[2012-02-19 17:44:24] Elias: you can't kill everything that disagrees you
[2012-02-19 17:44:27] Elias: *with you
[2012-02-19 17:44:33] Ilya: Can you tell the spiders to not bite people ever again?
[2012-02-19 17:44:42] Ilya: Will they show remorse and change their people-biting ways?
[2012-02-19 17:44:46] Elias: You really think those bandits won't every do anything wrong again?
[2012-02-19 17:44:51] Ilya: Of course not.
[2012-02-19 17:44:56] Aleksei\Gaia: People are redeemable!
[2012-02-19 17:45:02] Aleksei\Gaia: We can set a good example for them
[2012-02-19 17:45:08] Aleksei\Gaia: And convert them to good
[2012-02-19 17:45:09] Elias: .....
[2012-02-19 17:45:21] Aleksei\Gaia: That's how it works!
[2012-02-19 17:45:23] DM: (get back your 5c deposit)
[2012-02-19 17:45:27] Elias: No that's how you think it works
[2012-02-19 17:45:38] Aleksei\Gaia: You're a pessimist!
[2012-02-19 17:45:40] Elias: nature doesn't work the same way as devout religions do
[2012-02-19 17:45:42] Bolgan: :/
[2012-02-19 17:46:14] Aleksei\Gaia: Well, I choose to believe in the inherent goodness of sentient beings more or less.
[2012-02-19 17:46:20] Ilya: And as for nature?
[2012-02-19 17:46:25] Ilya: That's what fire is for.
[2012-02-19 17:46:36] Aleksei\Gaia: Right. Unless it leaves us alone.
[2012-02-19 17:46:43] Elias: .....
[2012-02-19 17:46:49] Elias: I'm not gathering food for you two anymore
[2012-02-19 17:46:54] Elias: you can find your own food!
[2012-02-19 17:47:10] Ilya: so what level does Aleksei get Create Food and Water
[2012-02-19 17:47:24] DM: oookay...
[2012-02-19 17:47:30] Aleksei\Gaia: 5!
[2012-02-19 17:47:31] Taranis: by that point hopefully we won't be bothering to track food
[2012-02-19 17:47:33] Ilya: MEANWHILE
[2012-02-19 17:47:39] Ilya: the spiders ate all our rations
[2012-02-19 17:47:39] Ilya: a
[2012-02-19 17:47:40] DM: Soooo...
[2012-02-19 17:47:42] Ilya: nd are now eating us
[2012-02-19 17:47:48] Elias: they ate one rations
[2012-02-19 17:47:57] Taranis: by all you mean 1 day… out of 60+?
[2012-02-19 17:47:58] Elias: so unless someone ate all the other rations, we're still fine
[2012-02-19 17:48:11] Aleksei\Gaia: At this rate we can just wait until the spiders die of diabetes and/or heart attacks :|
[2012-02-19 17:48:12] Ilya: I meant all the rations you threw
[2012-02-19 17:48:22] Elias: the one ration
[2012-02-19 17:48:25] Elias: that's all I threw
[2012-02-19 17:48:26] DM: It was indeed one day's worth.
[2012-02-19 17:48:29] Ilya: one day's worth
[2012-02-19 17:48:39] Ilya: which is ration(s) plural and not ration singular
[2012-02-19 17:48:42] Ilya: but anyway
[2012-02-19 17:48:48] Taranis: certainly not all
[2012-02-19 17:48:55] DM: It's not rational.
[2012-02-19 17:48:59] Ilya: 2 + 3i
[2012-02-19 17:49:16] DM: At any rate. I… think things are getting a bit tenser here than I'd like to see in a game.
[2012-02-19 17:49:21] Aleksei\Gaia: multiplies the rations by 2 - 3i
[2012-02-19 17:49:25] Aleksei\Gaia: SHIT JUST GOT REAL.
[2012-02-19 17:49:29] Ilya: so given Elias's crying over spider carcasses
[2012-02-19 17:49:32] Ilya: should we run away now
[2012-02-19 17:49:49] Ilya: I'm willing to let bygones be bygones with these spiders
[2012-02-19 17:49:57] Aleksei\Gaia: Man
[2012-02-19 17:49:58] Ilya: But if they come to kill us again so help me
[2012-02-19 17:50:07] Aleksei\Gaia: Are we gonna have to come back here again then
[2012-02-19 17:50:22] Bolgan: let Mr. Samurai Trainer get his own berries
[2012-02-19 17:50:29] Bolgan: doesn't he also train spiders or something
[2012-02-19 17:50:33] Ilya: but then he'll get eaten by spiders
[2012-02-19 17:50:38] Ilya: and then who will make us potions
[2012-02-19 17:50:45] Aleksei\Gaia: What if he trains the spiders to be samurai
[2012-02-19 17:50:48] Aleksei\Gaia: And they murder us all
[2012-02-19 17:50:54] DM: ok…
[2012-02-19 17:50:55] Bolgan: that would be problematic
[2012-02-19 17:50:55] Aleksei\Gaia: Then we'll feel dumb.
[2012-02-19 17:50:58] Bolgan: you have a point
[2012-02-19 17:51:00] Bolgan: never mind.
[2012-02-19 17:51:02] Ilya: well if he trains them they'd be on our side right?
[2012-02-19 17:51:04] DM: This is not going anywhere productive.
[2012-02-19 17:51:07] DM: I'm calling it here.
[2012-02-19 17:51:08] Aleksei\Gaia: No he's a jerk
[2012-02-19 17:51:19] DM: We're done for tonight.
[2012-02-19 17:51:25] Trip: Maybe he sent us here to be spirder food.
[2012-02-19 17:51:42] Aleksei\Gaia: !
[2012-02-19 17:52:08] Elias: o...kay?
[2012-02-19 17:53:14] Aleksei\Gaia: I guess we leave
[2012-02-19 17:53:25] Aleksei\Gaia: Is what I think the conclusion is
[2012-02-19 17:53:29] DM: Well...
[2012-02-19 17:53:52] DM: Ok, let me ask a quick question… because I'm seeing some stuff going on here that seems a touch dickish.
[2012-02-19 17:54:54] Trip: Just people trying to play their characters honestly, most likely.
[2012-02-19 17:54:57] Taranis: We have a character here who likes vermin. That is no secret. Now if we're going to run into vermin and have no peaceful way (aside from running away) to resolve the encounter...
[2012-02-19 17:55:01] DM: Are there issues here that will be a problem outside of RP.
[2012-02-19 17:55:03] DM: ?
[2012-02-19 17:55:05] Taranis: What is that character supposed to do?
[2012-02-19 17:55:18] Aleksei\Gaia: Nah?
[2012-02-19 17:55:21] Ilya: outside of RP?
[2012-02-19 17:55:23] Ilya: what
[2012-02-19 17:55:27] Elias: I'm playing a ranger, who likes vermin, and we're fighting vermin
[2012-02-19 17:55:30] DM: Well, let me put it another way.
[2012-02-19 17:55:43] Elias: my only way to not kill them is only able to distract them
[2012-02-19 17:55:43] DM: Are there issues here that will impact party cohesiveness.
[2012-02-19 17:55:45] Taranis: No, I don't think this is going to result in Erin wanting to stab Ian or Sandy
[2012-02-19 17:55:50] Elias: not convince them to not attack us
[2012-02-19 17:55:54] Elias: No it's not
[2012-02-19 17:56:01] Elias: just means I'll have to change the character
[2012-02-19 17:56:10] Aleksei\Gaia: (all Erin wanting to stab Sandy is already taken care of in our PF game :x )
[2012-02-19 17:56:14] Ilya: he may like vermin
[2012-02-19 17:56:17] Elias: two of the party are telling the ranger they want to kill nature
[2012-02-19 17:56:20] Ilya: but do vermin like him?
[2012-02-19 17:56:30] Ilya: answer: vermin are incapable of liking things!
[2012-02-19 17:56:33] Trip: It might be an unrequited love.
[2012-02-19 17:56:36] Ilya: they just eat you
[2012-02-19 17:56:52] Aleksei\Gaia: It's a Shakesperean tragedy
[2012-02-19 17:56:54] Elias: well when I made the character I was under the impression it was just a disgusting type of ranger pet
[2012-02-19 17:57:00] Elias: if that's not the case then I'll change the character
[2012-02-19 17:57:01] Aleksei\Gaia: Romeo and Bugjuliet
[2012-02-19 17:57:06] Taranis: Here's a question for the DM
[2012-02-19 17:57:19] Trip: Roacheo and Juliet
[2012-02-19 17:57:19] Taranis: what sort of diplomacy / wild empathy DC would be required to get the vermin to actually walk away?
[2012-02-19 17:57:30] Taranis: (assuming we hadn't done any direct attack at them yet)
[2012-02-19 17:57:32] Aleksei\Gaia: iirc
[2012-02-19 17:57:35] Elias: because if what I want to play isn't viable, then I'll change the character
[2012-02-19 17:57:36] Aleksei\Gaia: Vermin are mindless
[2012-02-19 17:57:37] DM: That last check was in fact just that.
[2012-02-19 17:57:39] Elias: simple as that
[2012-02-19 17:57:42] Aleksei\Gaia: As in their Int scores are —
[2012-02-19 17:57:52] DM: The spiders would not have bothered you further.
[2012-02-19 17:57:59] Taranis: Well that was sure as hell not clear
[2012-02-19 17:58:06] Taranis: I thought we'd bought a roun or two
[2012-02-19 17:58:18] Ilya: yeah
[2012-02-19 17:58:23] Ilya: also
[2012-02-19 17:58:27] Trip: Last thing we want is to get pounced again two rounds later because we failed to splat them.
[2012-02-19 17:58:30] DM: Ok, I will make my flavor text clearer then.
[2012-02-19 17:58:40] Ilya: Ilya's concern was the spiders would continue to attack people who wanted berries.
[2012-02-19 17:58:45] Aleksei\Gaia: The other thing is that I, and also Aleksei, ... right
[2012-02-19 17:58:47] Aleksei\Gaia: that
[2012-02-19 17:58:53] Aleksei\Gaia: it would suck to be like
[2012-02-19 17:58:55] Aleksei\Gaia: Ok mr. druid
[2012-02-19 17:58:59] Ilya: clearly the berries are a thing we want for our potions
[2012-02-19 17:59:01] Aleksei\Gaia: We cleared out aaaalll the bandits
[2012-02-19 17:59:06] Aleksei\Gaia: Go pick your own damn berries now
[2012-02-19 17:59:08] Aleksei\Gaia: And he's like
[2012-02-19 17:59:09] Aleksei\Gaia: Nope
[2012-02-19 17:59:12] Aleksei\Gaia: There are spiders.
[2012-02-19 17:59:13] Ilya: so it doesn't make sense to just leave this resource guarded by things
[2012-02-19 17:59:16] Aleksei\Gaia: And we're like grrrrrr
[2012-02-19 17:59:18] Ilya: when it is a thing we need
[2012-02-19 17:59:39] DM: Well, note the description of the area.
[2012-02-19 17:59:42] Ilya: also The Giant passed $1M!
[2012-02-19 17:59:43] Ilya: woo
[2012-02-19 17:59:48] DM: It's shrouded in spider webs.
[2012-02-19 17:59:51] Ilya: yeah
[2012-02-19 17:59:53] Aleksei: Right
[2012-02-19 17:59:55] Aleksei: We got that
[2012-02-19 17:59:58] Ilya: and this is where the berries come from
[2012-02-19 17:59:59] Ilya: right?
[2012-02-19 18:00:02] Taranis: So presumably people will not wander in unaware
[2012-02-19 18:00:06] Aleksei: Ok but
[2012-02-19 18:00:06] Trip: Is anyone else slightly weirded out by this success?
[2012-02-19 18:00:09] Ilya: I saw the spiders coming!
[2012-02-19 18:00:10] Aleksei: They won't wander in *at all*
[2012-02-19 18:00:16] Aleksei: Which is the opposite of what we want
[2012-02-19 18:00:18] Ilya: right
[2012-02-19 18:00:25] Taranis: if someone does want berries, they'll know there is a risk of spiders
[2012-02-19 18:00:27] Ilya: we want this to be a safe place for people to gather reagents
[2012-02-19 18:00:32] Aleksei: We want people who are not us to be able to come here so that we don't have to
[2012-02-19 18:00:33] Ilya: not have to deal with spiders.
[2012-02-19 18:00:34] Taranis: (granted we can presumably cultivate these berries elsewhere)
[2012-02-19 18:00:55] DM: Indeed, there are other options if you're interested in preserving the natural habitat of the majestic chew spider.
[2012-02-19 18:00:55] Ilya: well what if I want to build a lumber mill here
[2012-02-19 18:00:57] Ilya: or a barracks
[2012-02-19 18:01:05] Aleksei: After all
[2012-02-19 18:01:06] Ilya: or!
[2012-02-19 18:01:07] DM: >.<
[2012-02-19 18:01:10] Aleksei: We are bringing civilization
[2012-02-19 18:01:11] Bolgan: I think that large construction like that
[2012-02-19 18:01:12] Ilya: a gryphon roost
[2012-02-19 18:01:16] Aleksei: Not like, maintaining the sanctity of whatever
[2012-02-19 18:01:23] Bolgan: is a far better way of clearing an entire area of vermin
[2012-02-19 18:01:33] Ilya: well we have to clear the area first
[2012-02-19 18:01:35] Bolgan: as opposed to hunting them down on the side of a quest for berries
[2012-02-19 18:01:38] Aleksei: Thing is though
[2012-02-19 18:01:38] Ilya: then we can build our Tier 3 units
[2012-02-19 18:01:41] Aleksei: If we clear the area
[2012-02-19 18:01:43] Aleksei: There won't be berries
[2012-02-19 18:01:45] Bolgan: because then people will actually be clearing shit
[2012-02-19 18:01:47] Bolgan: with construction
[2012-02-19 18:01:47] Ilya: ok well
[2012-02-19 18:01:49] Aleksei: And that means no potions
[2012-02-19 18:01:52] Ilya: that was an example
[2012-02-19 18:02:02] Ilya: not necessarily a thing we'd want to do
[2012-02-19 18:02:05] Aleksei: Sure
[2012-02-19 18:02:14] Ilya: my point is our job here is to make the lands safe for us to colonize
[2012-02-19 18:02:14] Aleksei: The general point though is that we want to strike a balance
[2012-02-19 18:02:15] Ilya: w
[2012-02-19 18:02:18] Aleksei: It's not like we're going
[2012-02-19 18:02:21] Elias: Well I read that "we burn nature to the ground with fire" essentially was the plan
[2012-02-19 18:02:25] Ilya: no no
[2012-02-19 18:02:26] Elias: what kind of ranger agrees with that?
[2012-02-19 18:02:27] Ilya: just spiders.
[2012-02-19 18:02:29] Aleksei: GRRR WE HATE ALL NATURE GRRR BURN IT AAAAALLLL DOWN
[2012-02-19 18:02:36] Bolgan: fair enough
[2012-02-19 18:02:40] DM: Ilya was bitten by a spider at a young age.
[2012-02-19 18:02:43] Elias: That's the implication I got from all the discussion
[2012-02-19 18:02:48] Ilya: does that make me spiderman
[2012-02-19 18:02:52] Aleksei: It's totally just
[2012-02-19 18:02:56] DM: No, just afraid of spider.s
[2012-02-19 18:03:00] Bolgan: my thought was simply that this seemed excessive, especially when our swarm-fighting tools are not so great
[2012-02-19 18:03:04] Ilya: isn't afraid of spiders
[2012-02-19 18:03:06] Aleksei: We leave nature alone except insofar as it causes us inconvenience
[2012-02-19 18:03:15] Bolgan: is afraid of errythang
[2012-02-19 18:03:19] Aleksei: At which point we attempt to reason with it
[2012-02-19 18:03:24] Elias: which is fine
[2012-02-19 18:03:25] Aleksei: Sadly spiders are immune to this
[2012-02-19 18:03:30] Taranis: certainly encounters with swarms we are poorly equipped to damage is poor
[2012-02-19 18:03:33] Trip: ,,,,And then we blow the snot out of it if it does.
[2012-02-19 18:03:37] Elias: but when the party says "we burn all nature that gets in our way"
[2012-02-19 18:03:37] Aleksei: Unless you propose to install a hive mind in the spiders
[2012-02-19 18:03:38] Taranis: spiders are not immune to "reasoning" via this ranger
[2012-02-19 18:03:42] Aleksei: Complete with sorcerer levels
[2012-02-19 18:03:51] Trip: THAT seems to be the rule of the human condition. outside game GRUMBLE GRUMBLE
[2012-02-19 18:04:03] Elias: then it becomes an issue when it conflicts with the very class you're playing
[2012-02-19 18:04:07] Elias: that's why he reacted that way
[2012-02-19 18:04:10] Aleksei: Indeed
[2012-02-19 18:04:10] Bolgan: man, if real humans had real sorcerer levels . . .
[2012-02-19 18:04:18] Bolgan: gg vermin
[2012-02-19 18:04:22] Ilya: fact
[2012-02-19 18:04:24] Taranis: that would suck for other humans :P
[2012-02-19 18:04:25] Ilya: I mean to be fair
[2012-02-19 18:04:26] Bolgan: gg ecosystems
[2012-02-19 18:04:27] Bolgan: etc.
[2012-02-19 18:04:28] Ilya: in real life
[2012-02-19 18:04:31] Elias: you're basically telling him his way of thinking is wrong and should be burned....
[2012-02-19 18:04:32] Ilya: we kill vermin all the time
[2012-02-19 18:04:37] Ilya: with various technological prowess
[2012-02-19 18:04:38] Aleksei: I was actually suggesting that the SPIDERS get the sorcerer levels
[2012-02-19 18:04:40] Elias: yes I realize this
[2012-02-19 18:04:46] Aleksei: As that is the effect of hivemindedness
[2012-02-19 18:04:47] Bolgan: I know
[2012-02-19 18:04:49] Aleksei: k.
[2012-02-19 18:04:50] Elias: he's not against killing them if no other option presents itself
[2012-02-19 18:04:50] Bolgan: but fuck that
[2012-02-19 18:04:53] Ilya: lol
[2012-02-19 18:04:55] Elias: like the cavern with the centipede
[2012-02-19 18:05:01] Elias: here we could run
[2012-02-19 18:05:06] Trip: We essentially have real sorcery. It's called technology and a massive population.
[2012-02-19 18:05:07] Elias: or find a different berry field
[2012-02-19 18:05:16] Aleksei: The question is
[2012-02-19 18:05:19] Aleksei: Is there a different one
[2012-02-19 18:05:20] Elias: or, as I thought, reason with them
[2012-02-19 18:05:25] Bolgan: but why are there always bugs around :/
[2012-02-19 18:05:26] Elias: but since I can't....
[2012-02-19 18:05:28] Aleksei: If we find out that there IS a different berry field
[2012-02-19 18:05:29] Ilya: the other berry field is protected by centipedes
[2012-02-19 18:05:33] Bolgan: we totally need sorcerer levels
[2012-02-19 18:05:33] Ilya: in an ironic twist
[2012-02-19 18:05:41] Aleksei: And this druid sent us to this berry field which has spiders while the other one does not
[2012-02-19 18:05:42] Trip: For the record, even the berries in this patch are dangerous.
[2012-02-19 18:05:42] Ilya: i am taking sorcerer levels!
[2012-02-19 18:05:42] DM: You could probably move over to a different part of the chasm, yes.
[2012-02-19 18:05:44] Aleksei: Oh man
[2012-02-19 18:05:47] Aleksei: Gonna be so mad
[2012-02-19 18:05:57] Bolgan: lol
[2012-02-19 18:06:01] Ilya: yeah me too
[2012-02-19 18:06:02] Taranis: no, the other one has dragons
[2012-02-19 18:06:04] Bolgan: if you want to pick a thing to be mad about
[2012-02-19 18:06:05] Ilya: we should in fact
[2012-02-19 18:06:05] Ilya: g
[2012-02-19 18:06:08] Ilya: o to that berry patch
[2012-02-19 18:06:11] Elias: so no, I'm not mad out of character
[2012-02-19 18:06:12] Ilya: and see if it has spiders
[2012-02-19 18:06:16] Bolgan: be mad that we got sent for berries whose patches KILL COMMONERS
[2012-02-19 18:06:21] Elias: I'm just playing a ranger who was told everything he loves should be burned :P
[2012-02-19 18:06:24] Bolgan: wtf 5 damage worth of thorns?
[2012-02-19 18:06:30] Ilya: well

[2012-02-19 18:06:42] DM: That is, to be fair, over the course of several dozen minutes.
