[2012-03-04 14:09:54] Aleksei\Gaia: No :( [2012-03-04 14:09:57] Ilya: :| [2012-03-04 14:09:58] Aleksei\Gaia: Somewhere in the forest [2012-03-04 14:10:07] Ilya: Well, we need to explore the forest anyway. [2012-03-04 14:10:15] Aleksei\Gaia: Yeah... [2012-03-04 14:10:23] Ilya: Hopefully we will find this evil sorceress and be able to deal with her. [2012-03-04 14:10:34] Aleksei\Gaia: Yeah hopefully [2012-03-04 14:10:42] Aleksei\Gaia: We need to keep an eye out for like evil magic shit [2012-03-04 14:10:44] Aleksei\Gaia: Oh you know what [2012-03-04 14:10:54] Aleksei\Gaia: Let's find those pixies and ask them if they know anything about this [2012-03-04 14:11:00] Ilya: !try 0 [2012-03-04 14:11:00] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Ilya : [2012-03-04 14:11:00] DiceBot: 1d20 < 9 = 9 > + 0 = 9 [2012-03-04 14:11:22] Ilya: Sounds reasonable.

[2012-03-04 14:11:56] Ilya: Aleksei, your plans leave much to be desired. [2012-03-04 14:11:56] Aleksei\Gaia: Hey if you have better ideas [2012-03-04 14:12:00] Aleksei\Gaia: I'm all for it [2012-03-04 14:12:17] DM: So, there was a proposal to explore on the way back. Do you do this? [2012-03-04 14:12:21] Ilya: thinks [2012-03-04 14:12:26] Ilya: Taranis is pretty smart. [2012-03-04 14:12:32] DM: And in particular, do you take the path suggested... [2012-03-04 14:12:45] DM: http://kingmaker.xthemage.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13 here [2012-03-04 14:13:01] Aleksei\Gaia: Well if someone here knows things about pixies [2012-03-04 14:13:06] Ilya: looks at Taranis [2012-03-04 14:13:06] Aleksei\Gaia: And where/how to find them [2012-03-04 14:13:13] Aleksei\Gaia: Like maybe Taranis, sure [2012-03-04 14:13:17] DM: That would be some Knowledge Nature, indeed [2012-03-04 14:13:27] Taranis: Pixies… why would you want to find those again? [2012-03-04 14:13:41] Ilya: Maybe Taranis knows about this unicorn. [2012-03-04 14:13:46] Taranis: !try 11 [2012-03-04 14:13:46] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis : [2012-03-04 14:13:46] DiceBot: 1d20 < 4 = 4 > + 11 = 15 [2012-03-04 14:13:55] DM: And one more, if you would. [2012-03-04 14:13:56] Elias: I guess I'll try some knowledge checking [2012-03-04 14:13:59] Elias: !try 3 [2012-03-04 14:13:59] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Elias : [2012-03-04 14:13:59] DiceBot: 1d20 < 5 = 5 > + 3 = 8 [2012-03-04 14:14:01] Taranis: !try 11 [2012-03-04 14:14:01] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis : [2012-03-04 14:14:01] DiceBot: 1d20 < 5 = 5 > + 11 = 16 [2012-03-04 14:14:35] Aleksei: (FYI, http://obormot.ath.cx/~obormot/kingmaker/kingmaker_map.pdf) [2012-03-04 14:14:35] Taranis: How about this, then [2012-03-04 14:14:42] DM: So, neither Taranis, nor Elias know anything specific about where the pixies might be found. They tend to stay within a few miles of particular spots. [2012-03-04 14:14:46] Aleksei: (now fully corrected/updated) [2012-03-04 14:14:49] DM: But nothing more precise. [2012-03-04 14:14:54] Taranis: Let's make our way back to Oleg's, return these berries to Bokken, and then start exploring the forest [2012-03-04 14:15:04] Aleksei: I dunno man [2012-03-04 14:15:14] Aleksei: Maybe we should pass by the place where we met those pixies first [2012-03-04 14:15:14] DM: Taranis is aware that unicorns exist, and might even exist in the area, but are probably quite rare. [2012-03-04 14:15:17] Aleksei: On the way back [2012-03-04 14:15:24] Aleksei: Lest more innocent unicorns die [2012-03-04 14:15:39] DM: I believe Taranis' suggested path has you going through that general area. [2012-03-04 14:15:47] Ilya: Sounds good. [2012-03-04 14:15:51] Elias: well tracking is apparently my specialty in forests now [2012-03-04 14:15:57] Elias: gotta love favored terrain [2012-03-04 14:16:22] DM: ok [2012-03-04 14:17:00] DM: so from your present location, you travel Northwest, plunging into the forest, and taking time to map the area in detail. [2012-03-04 14:18:54] Taranis: (That time is slow enough to survival checks for food?) [2012-03-04 14:18:58] DM: (yes) [2012-03-04 14:19:22] DM: Let's have a quick perception check. [2012-03-04 14:19:30] Taranis: !try 2;perception [2012-03-04 14:19:30] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis : [2012-03-04 14:19:30] DiceBot: (perception) 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 2 = 15 [2012-03-04 14:19:43] Bolgan: !try 9 [2012-03-04 14:19:43] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Bolgan : [2012-03-04 14:19:43] DiceBot: 1d20 < 8 = 8 > + 9 = 17 [2012-03-04 14:19:45] Aleksei\Gaia: !try 3;perception [2012-03-04 14:19:45] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Aleksei\Gaia : [2012-03-04 14:19:45] DiceBot: (perception) 1d20 < 5 = 5 > + 3 = 8 [2012-03-04 14:19:46] Trip: !try 4 [2012-03-04 14:19:46] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Trip : [2012-03-04 14:19:46] DiceBot: 1d20 < 15 = 15 > + 4 = 19 [2012-03-04 14:19:54] Ilya: !try -1;perception [2012-03-04 14:19:54] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Ilya : [2012-03-04 14:19:54] DiceBot: (perception) 1d20 < 17 = 17 > - 1 = 16 [2012-03-04 14:19:59] DM: Ok, good.

[2012-03-04 14:20:45] DM: A large pine, its inside rotted out and hollow. [2012-03-04 14:21:09] DM: And at the mouth of this hollow, a scattering of bones and bits of carcass. [2012-03-04 14:21:17] DM: Knowledge:Nature, please. [2012-03-04 14:21:24] Taranis: !try 11 [2012-03-04 14:21:24] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Taranis : [2012-03-04 14:21:24] DiceBot: 1d20 < 13 = 13 > + 11 = 24 [2012-03-04 14:21:25] Aleksei\Gaia: Clearly some animal lives here [2012-03-04 14:21:31] Aleksei\Gaia: And we should leave it alone [2012-03-04 14:21:53] Aleksei\Gaia: Maybe a bear. [2012-03-04 14:21:57] Elias: !try 3 [2012-03-04 14:21:57] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Elias : [2012-03-04 14:21:57] DiceBot: 1d20 < 7 = 7 > + 3 = 10 [2012-03-04 14:22:26] DM: Based on the appearance of the lair, and the periodic snorts coming from within... Taranis identifies this as the lair of a boar. [2012-03-04 14:22:30] DM: A particularly large one. [2012-03-04 14:22:47] Ilya: /ok I seem to recall something about a boar. [2012-03-04 14:23:15] DM: http://kingmaker.xthemage.net/wiki/index.php/Wanted_Posters [2012-03-04 14:23:35] Taranis: Well then [2012-03-04 14:23:39] Aleksei\Gaia: I dunno guys [2012-03-04 14:23:39] Taranis: Assuming this is a boar [2012-03-04 14:23:41] Ilya: (sounds worthwhile to me) [2012-03-04 14:23:46] Aleksei\Gaia: Did this boar do anything to us [2012-03-04 14:23:53] Aleksei\Gaia: Maybe it just wants to be left alone. [2012-03-04 14:24:01] Taranis: How about you go knock on the tree and see? [2012-03-04 14:24:06] Aleksei\Gaia: But [2012-03-04 14:24:10] Aleksei\Gaia: That [2012-03-04 14:24:14] Aleksei\Gaia: is confused [2012-03-04 14:24:30] Aleksei\Gaia: But then we wouldn't be leaving it alone. [2012-03-04 14:24:58] Ilya: (I'm also confused. Are you trying to make our official party stance that of not killing wildlife for some reason?) [2012-03-04 14:25:10] Aleksei\Gaia: :/ [2012-03-04 14:25:21] Aleksei\Gaia: (only the cute wildlife) [2012-03-04 14:25:26] Ilya: (Are we ignoring sidequests for the sake of some sort of roleplaying nonsense here) [2012-03-04 14:25:37] Ilya: (Personally I signed up to roll dice and kill things) [2012-03-04 14:26:12] Ilya: (not opposed to any sort of character development while that happens but I'm not really inclined to treat boars as if they are people) [2012-03-04 14:26:27] Aleksei\Gaia: (well ok) [2012-03-04 14:26:29] Ilya: (especially when the game is telling us to go kill it) [2012-03-04 14:26:34] Aleksei\Gaia: (:p) [2012-03-04 14:27:07] Ilya: (also a boar we could eat for like... days) [2012-03-04 14:27:11] Ilya: (it will be glorious) [2012-03-04 14:27:32] DM: (Hi boar. It is a pleasure to meat you?) [2012-03-04 14:27:34] Ilya: rifles through his wanted posters notes [2012-03-04 14:27:36] Ilya: Huh. [2012-03-04 14:27:51] Bolgan: :| [2012-03-04 14:27:55] Ilya: Seems like there was a giant boar that took this hunter's leg a year ago. [2012-03-04 14:28:03] Elias: (Man, elias is gonna lose his mind at this rate) [2012-03-04 14:28:09] Aleksei\Gaia: The boar stole the guy's leg? [2012-03-04 14:28:09] Ilya: Probably a danger to people in the area. [2012-03-04 14:28:13] Ilya: nods [2012-03-04 14:28:18] Aleksei\Gaia: Like a peg leg? [2012-03-04 14:28:23] Ilya: Like bit it clean off. [2012-03-04 14:28:27] Aleksei\Gaia: oh. [2012-03-04 14:28:29] Ilya: He barely escaped with his life. [2012-03-04 14:28:37] Aleksei\Gaia: I guess that is dangerous. [2012-03-04 14:28:39] Aleksei\Gaia: For people. [2012-03-04 14:28:41] Ilya: Sounds dangerous to me. [2012-03-04 14:29:01] Ilya: Also, he's offering a reward. [2012-03-04 14:29:04] Elias: sighs [2012-03-04 14:29:15] Aleksei\Gaia: What is the reward? [2012-03-04 14:29:20] Ilya: Let's see... [2012-03-04 14:29:24] Ilya: consults his notes again [2012-03-04 14:29:37] Ilya: A... a masterwork longbow and six animal bane arrows. [2012-03-04 14:29:45] Ilya: Well that's not an amazing reward. [2012-03-04 14:29:53] Ilya: But it's better than nothing I suppose. [2012-03-04 14:30:06] Aleksei\Gaia: (the real reward is delicious XP) [2012-03-04 14:30:11] Ilya: (fact) [2012-03-04 14:30:40] DM: Ok. So what's the plan? [2012-03-04 14:30:46] Ilya: The question is... is the boar home. [2012-03-04 14:30:51] Ilya: looks around [2012-03-04 14:30:55] DM: Sounds like it.

[2012-03-04 17:08:48] Aleksei\Gaia: Sure but can we still pass by the place where we met the pixies [2012-03-04 17:08:51] Taranis: At this point, we should cut exploration short on the way, yes [2012-03-04 17:09:13] DM: ok. Passing by the Pixies will put you a little out of your way, but not by much. [2012-03-04 17:09:14] Ilya: I'm thinking we should skip the pixies and go straight back to oleg. [2012-03-04 17:09:17] Taranis: also, if we camp here, I will spend time studying [2012-03-04 17:09:33] Ilya: Reason being, how would it look to be carrying a unconscious bear [2012-03-04 17:09:37] Aleksei\Gaia: Hmmm [2012-03-04 17:09:39] Aleksei\Gaia: Good point. [2012-03-04 17:09:50] Aleksei\Gaia: Although we could just explain to the pixies what happened [2012-03-04 17:09:55] Aleksei\Gaia: AND they might know how to help him! [2012-03-04 17:10:09] Taranis: also, we should minimize the time we spend dragging a bear [2012-03-04 17:10:28] Aleksei\Gaia: That is true [2012-03-04 17:10:41] Aleksei\Gaia: Ok let's go back to Oleg's, but once we do that [2012-03-04 17:10:44] Ilya: Yeah, just doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

[2012-03-04 17:13:55] DM: It's slow going, dragging the bear along with you, and it takes you the better part of 3 days to get back to Oleg's [2012-03-04 17:14:19] DM: The bear stirs a few times, but you knock it out again. [2012-03-04 17:14:31] Taranis: so that makes 4 or 5 days worth of rations/survival? [2012-03-04 17:14:37] DM: 5 total. [2012-03-04 17:14:39] Ilya: does all the subdual damage [2012-03-04 17:16:12] DM: At one point as you're leaving the forest, a pair of Thylacines (marsupial predators) attempt to stalk you briefly, but quickly break off.

[2012-03-04 17:34:15] DM: Within a week, you can expect the arrival of the first of several caravans of settlers, building supplies, and the like. [2012-03-04 17:34:23] Ilya: Oh, fantastic. [2012-03-04 17:34:42] Ilya: Oleg, how would you like to be our majordomo while we continue exploring? [2012-03-04 17:35:21] Oleg: is stunned [2012-03-04 17:35:49] Oleg: Well, I'd be glad to help out... but all I want is a simple life out here in the middle of nowhere. [2012-03-04 17:35:53] Ilya: Well, you're a trustworthy guy. And you have, sort of the beginnings of a settlement here. [2012-03-04 17:36:34] Oleg: Just what we need. More folk traipsing around, round here. [2012-03-04 17:36:55] Oleg: Well, if you're set on housing em here... I suppose I'll need to keep some order. [2012-03-04 17:37:14] Ilya: Well we can put them elsewhere if you want... [2012-03-04 17:37:22] Ilya: But it seemed like a good idea ot me. [2012-03-04 17:37:32] Taranis: How well can this area support more people? [2012-03-04 17:37:45] Taranis: Maybe we'd be better off settling them down by the lake. [2012-03-04 17:38:16] Ilya: That makes sense. [2012-03-04 17:38:20] Oleg: You could probably build things out. The plains are probably more amenable to agriculture than anywhere else in the Greenbelt... but also harder to defend. [2012-03-04 17:38:27] DM: err... wrong windo [2012-03-04 17:38:31] DM: window [2012-03-04 17:38:37] DM: said that [2012-03-04 17:38:50] Ilya: Hm [2012-03-04 17:38:57] Ilya: SO we probably want to do that. [2012-03-04 17:38:57] Taranis: short-term, agriculture is the priority [2012-03-04 17:39:11] DM: Ok. [2012-03-04 17:39:43] Taranis: So it was… here? that was better, or down by the lake? [2012-03-04 17:40:00] Bolgan: we need to find a spot near enough hammers to ease production [2012-03-04 17:40:02] Ilya: well if there are any bandits left [2012-03-04 17:40:05] Bolgan: >_> [2012-03-04 17:40:15] Ilya: we don't want to put people in a position where they will get wrecked [2012-03-04 17:41:06] DM: Details regarding the settlers and whatnot will be posted on the forums. [2012-03-04 17:41:16] Taranis: Certainly not, but if we're establishing settlements of significant size, then we need enough space for them to farm [2012-03-04 17:41:38] Ilya: yeah [2012-03-04 17:41:45] DM: In general, most of the stuff pertaining to kingdom-management will be offloaded to the forums, and will take place in between games. [2012-03-04 17:42:18] DM: Basically, that is to say that the kingdom-management meta-game will be entirely optional. [2012-03-04 17:42:42] DM: (as mentioned when the game was started) [2012-03-04 17:43:10] Aleksei\Gaia: Well in the meantime [2012-03-04 17:43:19] Aleksei\Gaia: We stay here for a bit, right? [2012-03-04 17:43:22] Ilya: Yeah [2012-03-04 17:43:27] Aleksei\Gaia: TO see what happens with Jhod and Comrade Bear [2012-03-04 17:43:27] Taranis: So I gather [2012-03-04 17:43:28] Ilya: Want to see what Jhod comes up with [2012-03-04 17:43:30] Oleg: Now... I believe Kesten wanted to have a word or two with you. [2012-03-04 17:43:34] Ilya: Sure. [2012-03-04 17:43:39] Aleksei\Gaia: Who [2012-03-04 17:43:42] Ilya: goes to talk to Kesten [2012-03-04 17:43:44] Ilya: the guard dude [2012-03-04 17:43:48] DM: Captain of the Guard [2012-03-04 17:43:53] » Kesten_Garess joined the chat room. [2012-03-04 17:44:06] Kesten_Garess: Ah, welcome back. [2012-03-04 17:44:11] Ilya: Thanks. [2012-03-04 17:44:26] Kesten_Garess: Exploration keeping you busy? [2012-03-04 17:44:35] Ilya: Quite busy, yeah. [2012-03-04 17:44:51] Ilya: How are things here. [2012-03-04 17:44:53] Bolgan: bandits won't punch themselves [2012-03-04 17:45:15] Kesten_Garess: I wanted to have a chat with you about Auchs and Akiros. [2012-03-04 17:45:38] Kesten_Garess: Akiros is performing his duties quite commendably... but there's something off about him. [2012-03-04 17:45:42] Ilya: Off? [2012-03-04 17:46:04] Kesten_Garess: Well, it's hard to say exactly, but there's something between him and Jhod. [2012-03-04 17:46:19] Kesten_Garess: Every time the priest walks in, Akiros leaves. [2012-03-04 17:46:29] Taranis: He did seem to have issues with Erastil [2012-03-04 17:46:38] Ilya: Yeah, I recall that. [2012-03-04 17:46:46] Aleksei\Gaia: Maybe Jhod is evil. [2012-03-04 17:46:47] Kesten_Garess: Mmm... that could be it. [2012-03-04 17:46:58] Kesten_Garess: But this seems like more than that. [2012-03-04 17:47:04] Kesten_Garess: He's almost... hiding from Jhod. [2012-03-04 17:47:20] Elias: Bad blood between them perhaps? [2012-03-04 17:47:21] Ilya: Perhaps they know each other. [2012-03-04 17:47:23] Taranis: I think he's hiding from a representative of Erastil, more than from Jhod specifically [2012-03-04 17:47:27] Elias: Akrios was working for the Stag Lord [2012-03-04 17:47:29] Ilya: But Jhod hasn't recognized him. [2012-03-04 17:47:38] Kesten_Garess: Not as far as I can tell. [2012-03-04 17:47:41] Elias: Maybe it's Erastil he's more afraid of [2012-03-04 17:47:41] Kesten_Garess: At any rate, it's not impacting his duties. But I thought you might want to know. [2012-03-04 17:47:46] Ilya: Ok. [2012-03-04 17:47:47] Kesten_Garess: As for Auchs... [2012-03-04 17:47:50] Ilya: Maybe I'll have a chat with him. [2012-03-04 17:47:55] Kesten_Garess: He has to go. [2012-03-04 17:48:18] Ilya: I figured as much. [2012-03-04 17:48:41] Kesten_Garess: He's disruptive, and doesn't comprehend the basics of duty or responsibility. [2012-03-04 17:49:19] Ilya: Yeah, I believe it. [2012-03-04 17:49:31] Kesten_Garess: One of my men stepped on one of his toys the other day, and Auchs nearly took his head off. [2012-03-04 17:49:54] Ilya: sighs [2012-03-04 17:50:22] Kesten_Garess: I'm glad to help any man in need of redemption, but there's nothing I can do with him. [2012-03-04 17:50:56] Ilya: Yeah, we'll have to do something with him. [2012-03-04 17:51:08] Taranis: wanders off to study his new collection of scrolls [2012-03-04 17:51:14] DM: ok. [2012-03-04 17:51:44] DM: Unless you have anything else to say... the next morning... [2012-03-04 17:51:49] Elias: time for some quality time with the centipede eggs [2012-03-04 17:51:53] Ilya: Hm [2012-03-04 17:51:58] Ilya: Maybe I'll go talk to Akiros? [2012-03-04 17:52:05] DM: ok [2012-03-04 17:52:21] » Akiros joined the chat room. [2012-03-04 17:52:27] Ilya: finds Akiros [2012-03-04 17:52:48] DM: You find him in his tent, apparently deep in contemplation. [2012-03-04 17:52:57] Ilya: Akiros? [2012-03-04 17:53:03] Akiros: doesn't notice Ilya until he speaks. [2012-03-04 17:53:21] Akiros: looks up, and on seeing Ilya smiles. [2012-03-04 17:53:26] Taranis: (let me know how many hours I have free today) [2012-03-04 17:53:29] Akiros: Ilya! How are you? [2012-03-04 17:53:30] Ilya: How are you doing here? [2012-03-04 17:53:43] Ilya: Well I've been mauled by various wildlife, but none worse for the wear. [2012-03-04 17:53:49] Ilya: Just wanted to see how you were doing here. [2012-03-04 17:53:53] DM: (not enough to do any serious scribing) [2012-03-04 17:54:16] DM: Sense motive [2012-03-04 17:54:40] Ilya: !try -1 [2012-03-04 17:54:40] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Ilya : [2012-03-04 17:54:40] DiceBot: 1d20 < 19 = 19 > - 1 = 18 [2012-03-04 17:54:41] Akiros: Good. It's more boring than bandit life, but at least I can look myself in the mirror. [2012-03-04 17:55:03] Ilya: nods and smiles [2012-03-04 17:55:06] Ilya: Good to hear. [2012-03-04 17:55:31] DM: (He's lying about that last bit) [2012-03-04 17:56:08] DM: (Lying is perhaps too harsh, but you sense that while he wants to believe it, he doesn't) [2012-03-04 17:56:17] Ilya: So Captain Garess tells me you're avoiding Jhod, the priest. [2012-03-04 17:56:40] Akiros: Yes. I suppose I have. [2012-03-04 17:56:51] Akiros: He brings back bad memories. [2012-03-04 17:56:57] Ilya: Bad memories? [2012-03-04 17:57:03] Akiros: Things I could have been. [2012-03-04 17:57:09] Akiros: Things I should have done. [2012-03-04 17:57:14] Akiros: Things I shouldn't have done. [2012-03-04 17:57:18] Ilya: Were you... involved with the Church of Erastil? [2012-03-04 17:57:36] Akiros: chuckles morbidly [2012-03-04 17:57:55] Akiros: Yes... I suppose you could say that. Things long past, and best forgotten. [2012-03-04 17:58:21] Ilya: Maybe it would help to talk about it? [2012-03-04 17:59:33] Akiros: remains silent for nearly a minute. [2012-03-04 17:59:46] Ilya: I'll listen. [2012-03-04 17:59:58] Akiros: I've seen you fight. I've seen how your faith gives you strength. [2012-03-04 18:00:00] Ilya: definitely attempting to influence him here [2012-03-04 18:00:11] DM: Hmm. Roll a diplomacy check. [2012-03-04 18:00:20] Ilya: !try 7 [2012-03-04 18:00:20] DiceBot: rolls attempts for Ilya : [2012-03-04 18:00:20] DiceBot: 1d20 < 8 = 8 > + 7 = 15 [2012-03-04 18:00:24] DM: mmm [2012-03-04 18:00:52] Akiros: I've seen your faith give you strength. I had that kind of faith once. [2012-03-04 18:01:04] Bolgan: (arrow -> knee?) [2012-03-04 18:01:16] Ilya: (don't do it) [2012-03-04 18:01:18] Akiros: But there was ... a misunderstanding. [2012-03-04 18:01:30] Akiros: People got hurt. [2012-03-04 18:01:39] Akiros: And everything I believed in fell apart. [2012-03-04 18:02:24] Ilya: It's never too late to restore your faith. [2012-03-04 18:03:22] Akiros: Perhaps. [2012-03-04 18:03:42] Ilya: I don't know much about Erastil... but I have to believe you don't have to live with this regret. [2012-03-04 18:04:41] Akiros: nods silently [2012-03-04 18:04:46] Ilya: At least try and get along with Jhod... he's your comrade. [2012-03-04 18:04:56] Ilya: pats Akiros on the shoulder and gets up [2012-03-04 18:05:14] Ilya: If you ever feel like telling me what happened, I'll be around. [2012-03-04 18:05:23] Akiros: I'll keep that in mind. [2012-03-04 18:05:33] Ilya: nods and exits the tent [2012-03-04 18:06:13] DM: Indeed [2012-03-04 18:06:36] DM: Ok, well, shortly after that chat, you see Akiros get up out of his tent and walk over to the common sleeping room. [2012-03-04 18:07:30] Ilya: watches [2012-03-04 18:07:45] DM: The next morning, you are approached by Jhod. [2012-03-04 18:07:57] » Jhod joined the chat room. [2012-03-04 18:08:18] Ilya: Good morning Jhod. [2012-03-04 18:08:28] Jhod: Good morning. [2012-03-04 18:08:55] Jhod: I have prayed on it. The way forward remains unclear. [2012-03-04 18:09:18] Ilya: :| [2012-03-04 18:09:22] Taranis: In very simple terms, we either look to cure this person, or put him out of his misery. [2012-03-04 18:09:29] Taranis: Which is it? [2012-03-04 18:09:37] Jhod: Without knowing what to do further, I wish to proceed with my initial plans. [2012-03-04 18:10:01] Jhod: I wish to rebuild the temple of Erastil. [2012-03-04 18:10:11] Ilya: shrugs [2012-03-04 18:10:15] Ilya: Sounds fine by me [2012-03-04 18:10:27] Aleksei\Gaia: Well that's fine but what about this bear [2012-03-04 18:10:29] Ilya: But what do we do with this... afflicted man [2012-03-04 18:10:38] Jhod: Yes... regarding him... [2012-03-04 18:10:52] Aleksei\Gaia: (Jhod is evil) [2012-03-04 18:10:54] Jhod: That is one of the things I wished to ask your assistance with. [2012-03-04 18:10:55] Aleksei\Gaia: (telling you) [2012-03-04 18:11:11] Ilya: (Detect Evil) [2012-03-04 18:11:24] Ilya: silently activates Detect Evil [2012-03-04 18:11:38] Jhod: (nope, not evil) [2012-03-04 18:11:51] Aleksei\Gaia: ( >:| ) [2012-03-04 18:12:01] Jhod: One of the guards, an Akiros Ismort has requested to assist me in this task. [2012-03-04 18:12:28] Ilya: nods [2012-03-04 18:12:29] Ilya: Good. [2012-03-04 18:12:33] Jhod: He has been quite adept at keeping that lumbering oaf Auchs in check, and he believes that he can keep the bear subdued until a solution can be found. [2012-03-04 18:12:34] Ilya: Good to hear. [2012-03-04 18:12:55] Jhod: As I understand that you are now the authorities in this area now... [2012-03-04 18:13:01] Jhod: I wish to request his services. [2012-03-04 18:13:02] Ilya: Yep. [2012-03-04 18:13:10] Ilya: Consider it done. [2012-03-04 18:13:25] Ilya: I'll speak with Captain Garess to inform him. [2012-03-04 18:14:12] Aleksei\Gaia: Excellent [2012-03-04 18:15:14] Jhod: And the other thing... [2012-03-04 18:15:20] Taranis: (quick math; to scribe all my scrolls, I would need 36.5 hours; so a little over 2 days worth of downtime) [2012-03-04 18:15:25] Ilya: Perhaps you and Akiros can keep Auchs in line as well... [2012-03-04 18:15:37] Jhod: I do not know how to thank you for helping me to find this temple. [2012-03-04 18:16:00] Ilya: Well. The way I see it, we don't need your thanks. [2012-03-04 18:16:16] Ilya: All I'd ask is that you stay a friend of our little fiefdom [2012-03-04 18:16:28] Jhod: Well, I have little to repay you with, but if you should ever need the services of a cleric, I would be glad to do what I can. [2012-03-04 18:16:33] Ilya: nods [2012-03-04 18:16:36] Ilya: That's all I'd ask. [2012-03-04 18:17:25] Ilya: Are you planning to set out for the temple ruins any time soon? [2012-03-04 18:17:32] Jhod: As soon as possible. [2012-03-04 18:17:45] Aleksei\Gaia: Hey [2012-03-04 18:17:48] Aleksei\Gaia: I almost forgot [2012-03-04 18:17:48] Ilya: Ok, let me talk to Akiros and Captain Garess. [2012-03-04 18:17:53] Aleksei\Gaia: Jhod [2012-03-04 18:17:58] Jhod: Yes? [2012-03-04 18:18:04] Aleksei\Gaia: Do you know about any unicorns around here? [2012-03-04 18:18:10] Jhod: Unicorns... [2012-03-04 18:18:27] » Trip left the chat room. [2012-03-04 18:19:17] Aleksei\Gaia: Yeah, do unicorns live here in the Greenbelt? [2012-03-04 18:19:17] DM: sec. looking up some things [2012-03-04 18:19:22] Aleksei\Gaia: (heh) [2012-03-04 18:20:15] Jhod: I suppose they could? It's not my area of expertise. [2012-03-04 18:20:36] Taranis: (what knowledge would apply?) [2012-03-04 18:20:48] DM: Nature [2012-03-04 18:21:02] Ilya: yeah but we made those checks already [2012-03-04 18:21:02] Ilya: a [2012-03-04 18:21:04] Ilya: nd failed [2012-03-04 18:21:11] Taranis: ah, true, we did [2012-03-04 18:21:52] Aleksei\Gaia: Well [2012-03-04 18:21:53] Aleksei\Gaia: Darn [2012-03-04 18:21:54] Jhod: There are certainly plenty of legends of fey creatures in the area. [2012-03-04 18:22:04] Aleksei\Gaia: There are actual fey creatures too [2012-03-04 18:22:06] Aleksei\Gaia: We met some of them [2012-03-04 18:22:11] Aleksei\Gaia: Not unicorns though [2012-03-04 18:22:15] Aleksei\Gaia: Oh well. [2012-03-04 18:23:11] Jhod: I really don't know the area too well. I'm from further North, in Brevoy. [2012-03-04 18:23:17] Ilya: (so my plan for the moment) [2012-03-04 18:23:35] Ilya: (is to ask Akiros if he thinks he can take Auchs with him to maybe help with this rebuild effort) [2012-03-04 18:23:43] Ilya: (because captain garess can't keep him around) [2012-03-04 18:23:52] Ilya: (and then tell captain garess what's going on here) [2012-03-04 18:23:53] Taranis: If not, we'll probably have to end Auchs [2012-03-04 18:24:02] DM: Ok. [2012-03-04 18:24:10] DM: So, Auchs is happy to follow Akiros. [2012-03-04 18:24:28] Ilya: I figured [2012-03-04 18:24:33] Ilya: my question was, is Akiros ok with that [2012-03-04 18:25:19] DM: Akiros isn't super happy to have Auchs follow him, but is willing to do it if necessary. [2012-03-04 18:25:27] Ilya: Well he can't stay here [2012-03-04 18:25:39] DM: And Jhod isn't thrilled by it either, but agrees that Auchs' strength could be of use. [2012-03-04 18:25:40] Ilya: so the only alternative as far as I can tell is to put him down [2012-03-04 18:26:18] Ilya: ok well [2012-03-04 18:26:19] Akiros: . [2012-03-04 18:26:20] Akiros: Indeed. If that's what it would come to, I'll do it. [2012-03-04 18:26:26] Ilya: Ok. [2012-03-04 18:26:28] Ilya: Good.

[2012-03-04 18:28:24] Kesten_Garess: Hasn't really been much to do out here yet. [2012-03-04 18:28:40] Kesten_Garess: We should be able to hold the fort. [2012-03-04 18:29:01] Ilya: Good.

[2012-03-04 18:33:15] DM: If there's something that is likely to mess with the populace of that country, it's probably in the country's best interest for it to be dealt with. [2012-03-04 18:34:01] DM: Ooth, if it's something that's avoidable, you could just as easily put up signs around the thing and say "Don't mess with this thing, it will eat you" [2012-03-04 18:34:19] DM: which is certainly one way of dealing with it.
