So... No banana this weekend? :(

[Dasquian Belargic]

We're skipping it for some reason that I can't remember..

[Crusader]

Thanksgiving and me having a guest that weekend

[Dasquian Belargic]

If anyone wants to just hangout and play video games in lieu of banana-ing, I'll be around anyway :)

[Crusader]

Sneak Peek at next week's adventure:
13 pages already done in Roll20.net

May I present to you Halx's Homestead:

Baron Kurth Halx commands now over:
4 farms (from which 2 were completly burned down by Ogre raiding parties)
2 dairy farms (of which most of their lifestock were eaten by Ogres)
A wine yard and stables at the "keep"

Makhaira is now an honorable member of the Garethian's 5th Cavalary in the rank of a sergeant and now carries the title "Shieldmaid of the Realm". A title without influence and responsebilities that honors the women at court who pick up their swords in defense of the Realm.

Glen Fiddich was granted the right to keep the Tavern "Prancing Stag" in Wehrheim as its rightfull tenant.

Rhone Banhammer and Dasquian the Elf now carry the title "Friends of the Realm" and are therefore considered ambassadors for their people.

Saidra got the permission to be now adressed as "Free-Lady Saidra of the Realm". She is now a noble woman of the Realm without land but a right to be at the Garethian court although she is not a citizen of the Realm.

Everyone was awarded with a horse of their choice from the Emperor's stables.

[Dasquian the Elf]

Wowee! [/Toki]

[Crusader]

I am looking forward to tomorrows session. I hope everyone finds the time to come online.

BTW Dasq please shut down the 1000 Ogre thread.

[Dee]

I'm sorry guys, not going to make it today. I'm exhausted & I have no voice (yay being sick). Kick ass today - I'll be expecting stories next session!

[Crusader]

Hangout is open!

[Kurth Halx]

Alright people, let's put our heads together.

I think this year, the big hit crop is going to be cabbages. Let's get on that. Cabbages, wine, and cheese.

Also we need undocumented Horatian labor and shady trinkets for sale at the "consignment" shop.

[Saidra]

Poor poor highwaymen.

[Saidra]

Fucking Hell Blood-cursed Again >:

[Kurth Halx]

Fucking hell blood curses!

[Crusader]

Sweet Dreams, my Heroes...

Saidra: I dream that I buy a long, thin dagger. My main interest in this purchase is: Am I able to hide it in my clothes or maybe even in my boots? I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.
Makhaira: I dream that I am sneaking through a forest. I observe a hunting party of nobles. It is important to me that nobody in this group of nobles notices me. Within this party is a figure with long blond hair, that is treated with great respect. I am drawn to this person although I can not see his face. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.
Kurth: I dream that I walk through a gigantic palace. A majestic fox walks out of one chamber and comes closer to me with a curious and friendly look. I draw a long and thin dagger and drive it between the shoulders of the unsuspicious animal. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.
Dasquian: I dream that I stand behind a curtain, a dagger in my fist. I observe a ballroom, in which many candles are burning – they burn so bright that I have to blink. Not far from me sits a blond figure on a chair and shows me his back. It would require only three steps for me to reach him. Three steps is all what is between my dagger and this persons neck. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.
Glen: I dream that I sneak through a dark room with a four-poster bed in it. In the bed lies a figure of which I can not see the face. Blond curly hair is spread over the pillows. I hold a dagger in my fist. I ask myself in my own coldbloodedness: “Should I just stab through the blanket into this person's back, or should I first pull away the blanket? I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.
Rhone: I dream that I am held captive in a narrow cell and that I observe through a grilled window how down in the court yard a deaths-man is preparing an execution. I know that the muscular man with the red hood mask and the heavy axe, who just looked up at my window, is waiting for me. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.
Makhaira: I dream, that I hold a dagger covered in blood in my fist. In front of me falls a blond person on his knees - I can not see his face. Blood swells out of a wound in his chest. Simultaneously I get surrounded by armed men. Their faces are frightened or torn by anger. They all hold their swords ready. I am only a heartbeat away from getting pierced by numerous blades. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.

Kurth: I dream that I am young again. I have been training for years with my latest mistress. She saw my potential and so she taught me the art of being a shrouded master. At day she showed me techniques that went far beyond the teachings of the academies. At night I showed her what a beautiful young man is good for. I feel her legs wound around my neck, I feel her body shaking under me. I watch the flames dancing in the campfire. Then she pulls me to her with her hands in my beautiful hair and whispers into my ears while gasping:” My name is Nahema.” I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.

Glen: I dream that I stand at our waterfall again. My bags are packed but she does not want me to go. “Gaius”, she says to me, “I have taught you more than anyone before but if you go now remember there are more of us. We shrouded masters do not treat those kindly that practice their secret arts in public. Our abilities are not meant to be put into service for personal or of anyone else 's gain. We use our powers to teach those a lesson who think that they are powerful. We mock them by teaching them that they are just flies like anyone else that is not us.” She slaps me in my face. “Remember this last lesson!” I shiver. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.

Rhone: I dream that I have snuck in her chambers again. She was expecting me she is wearing nothing but a short robe made out of black thin satin that reveals more than it covers. Her dark hair is nearly as beautiful as mine. She is wearing a black satin veil that covers her eyes and nose how it is tradition for women in Al'Anfa. I undress her and lift her on the bed. I tease her with the chain that connects her nipple piercings. Her dark eyes look at me full of expectations. They look like two onyx pearls in the candle light. “What do you think would the Emperor do if he found out that you are with his wife in the middle of the night?” Her lips form a cruel smile. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.

Dasquian: I dream that my feet and my head are burning. The glowing coals in those iron shoes burn my skin. I jump from one foot to the other. “Dance, Wizard, dance!” I hear the mob yelling at me. I dance but not for them – I dance for her. She who has arrived here under false name. She who told me in private that I should run from here otherwise she would punish me for my vanity. I shall dance for her until those coals are cold and the pitch on my head is dry to show her that the revenge will be mine. And he is sitting there his face buried in his hands. His royal head of curls can not bear my suffering? Why did he then punish me in this way? Your whole family shall taste my revenge as well! My head is getting hotter and hotter. I feel how my hair, my beautiful hair is consumed by the pitch. I faint. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.

Saidra: I dream that I am hiding in a dark cellar of an abandoned house. My bones still feel the explosion of the tower. This bloody Elf will suffer for this! I look at the two spots on my forearms where I flayed myself today. This time my revenge will be perfect. I drown the feather in the pot with the mix of ink and my own blood and then I write those words that will bring death to the man who could have saved me in my darkest hour. It has to be my blood, my skin and a simple rhyme that will turn two of Aventuria's most powerful heroes into my weapons of revenge. I laugh as sinister as I can but my lungs are still burned and hurt. I wake up bathed in my own sweat, my heart is beating so loud that I can hear it in my ears.

[Crusader]

Everybody gets 50Xp for CSI Wehrheim
Glen 20Xp for not letting the guy lie around dead and naked
Kurth 20Xp for the scientific approach
Rhone 50Xp for figuring out the differences and the meanings of the dreams.

[Crusader]

Who are the mysterious Assassins who is their target and will the heroes be able to stop the Assassination?



OK at least two of those 3 questions are at least partials answered. :smug:

[Captain Untouchable]

Peter: don't fall asleep.

Seriously, man. I can get to you by train, and I know where to get a fuck-ton of bees. :colbert

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Not the bees!! OMGOBBBBBB

[Kurth Halx]

Since Dasquian and Makheira weren't here, they didn't read the message did they?

[Emelie Shadowstar]

Peter already said they did. :lol Since they had dreams.

sneaky German. :shakefist

[Captain Untouchable]

Tim didn't, though!

Quick, send for the wizard! :ohno

[Nínim]

Seriously, man. I can get to you by train

Yay, Jace wants to visit us!

[Pierce Tondry]

Seriously, man. I can get to you by train

Yay, Jace wants to visit us!

Jace, I think you reckoned without the All-Seeing Martina. I'm pretty sure she would surprise-welcome you on your arrival with several punches to the shoulder, causing you to loose the bees on yourself by accident.

[Captain Untouchable]

Jace, I think you reckoned without the All-Seeing Martina. I'm pretty sure she would surprise-welcome you on your arrival with several punches to the shoulder, causing you to loose the bees on yourself by accident.

You assume that Martina isn't already part of this dastardly plot.

Maybe I received an envelope in the mail this morning addressed to the Greatest Adventurer in Kent. :colbert

Peter Sturm is a bastard, Jace.
Go to his house: pour bees on his face.

[Kurth Halx]

So the train through France is a delightful trip with no delays and cheap beer, while any train to Scotland breaks down and you have to hitch on a Peugeot with a thermos of cold bovril?

[Crusader]

My new hook seems to have worked very well if you guys are still discussing about how to torment me for it...

[Nínim]

Don't be ridiculous, Jace!











...as if I couldn't do that alone...</p<img>

[Captain Untouchable]

...as if I couldn't do that alone...

Every time you say something like that, I hear creepy horror movie thunder in my head. :ohno

[Glen Fiddich]

Someone was just telling me about an RPG they play where they earn experience points for making bad puns.

Just floating that out there.

[Crusader]

How about getting Xp for :airquotes good :airquotes puns and losing xp for bad puns. :cyduck

[Captain Untouchable]

All of my puns are good.

:colbert

[Dasquian the Elf]

I miss one week and we get blood cursed again? What did you even

[Charley]

We never willingly signed into a blood contract like before. This was total bullshit like getting served with a blood subpoena

[Captain Untouchable]

So, here's an unnerving thought, guys. What if the blood cursed dude picked a fight with the bandits on purpose, to stop him from killing Emperor Hal? Suicide by highwayman.

[Crusader]

Intresting thought but way too smart for Glen :P

[Emelie Shadowstar]

I thought about that... but then I think the curse's compulsion would have prevented him from going through with it or it could be the reason why he ended up fighting back.

[Captain Untouchable]

Holy crap, there are Dark Eye video games?! :eek

Will I get spoilers if I play them? :ohno

[Dasquian Belargic]

Peter tells me that the Chains of Satinav (the game I have) shouldn't spoil any of the campaigns that we're doing, since it's set away from the nations that we're romping around

[Crusader]

Holy crap, there are Dark Eye video games?! :eek

Will I get spoilers if I play them? :ohno

Kind of since a lot of them play after the events of our current progress. DSA video games date back to the early 90s and our newest campaign was set in 91. So even if you play the old games you could get spoiled but after the completion of our current campaign those would be still set in the future but they would not spoil anything since it would be just a parallel narative to a future campaign (Orc War).

The Drakensang games are set after the big "Borbarad" campaign and so it is very spoilery everytime you run into someone who talks about the recent past but you could argue that Drakensang is set so many years in the future that the time we reach most of the mentioned plot points (if we ever do) they might be already forgotten. The Addon to the second Drakensang game features Phileason (Foggwolf/Fuckwolf) who is an important NPC in our next campaign(so he does normally not die... only if you fuck it up).

Satinav's Chains is a small story of its own and the only thing it could spoil is some background story of Dark Eyes that belong to a certain "High Elf" with red eyes that you might encounter one day. (this is at least what I found out about the game after some research)

[Crusader]

The Dark Eye was known in the US under another name in the 90s btw:
Realms of Arkania... this is why I always call the Mittelreich the Middle Realm why they translated Aventuria with Arkania escapes me.

This is a list of the games from the 90s
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realms_of_Arkania:_Blade_of_Destiny
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realms_of_Arkania:_Star_Trail
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realms_of_Arkania:_Shadows_over_Riva

BTW there are mobile games for the Dark Eye as well:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Eye#Video_games

[Crusader]

I still think that Star Trail had a really badass cover:
Rhone and Glen owning Orcs and Demons!

[Crusader]

Operation Regicide continues this weekend. Who will be there for killing Emperor Hal on Sunday?

[Captain Untouchable]

I will be there for not killing Emperor Hal on Sunday. :colbert

[Makhaira]

I will certainly be present, but I will most certainly *not* be killing the Emperor.

I live to thwart your plans, Peter! Even if I can't roll for shit.

[Crusader]

No "Death to all tyrants" or "Kill Emperor Hal. Join or die!" screams? Damn royalist traiters!

[Dasquian Belargic]

I'll be there and may very well accidentally assassinate an Emperor




:airquotes accidentally :airquotes

[Glen Fiddich]

I know asking this is walking down a dangerous path... but if Hal dies, who becomes Emperor? Would it be Prince Brin?

Because I would probably be okay with that. :uhoh

[Emelie Shadowstar]

I... have a ton of holiday things to do so nope, not gonna make it.

[Charley]

I will be there, but I also have a day of holiday cheer to spread around so if we can keep our quest to a good Prussian schedule that would be great

[Dasquian the Elf]

My <strike>body</strike> bow is ready!

[Kurth Halx]

Henry Rollins eat your heart out because I'M A LIIIIAAAARRRRR

[Kurth Halx]

I'ma have a MOTHERFUCKING BEAR HAT

[Dasquian the Elf]

Apes and bears beware, we will fuck you up

[Makhaira]

Damn right!

[Crusader]

Next sitting will be on the 30th of December and that time we will put back the FUN into royal funeral.

Please all make sure to be there for the epic conclusion of "The Assassins".

[Dasquian the Elf]

Our hero, our hero, claims a warrior's heart
I tell you, I tell you, the Bear Baron comes
With a sword wielding power of the ancient Praios art
Believe, believe, the Bear Baron comes
It's an end to the evil, of all Gareth's foes
Beware, beware, the Bear Baron comes
For the darkness has passed, and the legend yet grows
You'll know, You'll know the Bear Baron comes

Kodaavkiin, Kodaavkiin, naal ok zin los vahriin!
etc~~

[Glen Fiddich]

Tiro, Baron of Fuchshag!

[Crusader]

Xp for today:
50xp for Glen for asking about the whereabouts of the Emperor and therefore skipping a big chunk of the adventure by not infiltrating the Imperial Palace just to find out that the Emperor already left. :( (the twist would have been epic)
50Xp for everyone since the word Hobo was not mentioned anymore after the first hour
50Xp for the overall investigation in Gareth and Wehrheim for everyone
20Xp for the investigation in Festum for everyone
20Xp for Kurth since he is a silver/mithril tongued devil
20Xp for Makhaira and Dasquian for using their artisan skills
30Xp for Glen for saving Charley with his rope and not falling in the swamp or being paralyzed
30Xp for everyone for helping a merchant and surviving a Bornbear attack

[Glen Fiddich]

50Xp for everyone since the word Hobo was not mentioned anymore after the first hour

Finally, I found a way to use my terrible jokes as a force for good. :smokin

[Captain Untouchable]

Just FYI, Glen's bar-Elf looks like (http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/image-library/land/500/d/doctor-who-jenna-louise-coleman.jpg) Jenna-Louise Coleman now.

I decided this within thirty seconds of her coming on screen during Doctor Who. It took me the whole episode to realise how appropriate it is that the Elf is called Clouddancer. :cyduck

[Dasquian the Elf]

This makes me sleeping with her all the more appropriate :smug:

[Glen Fiddich]

Do so, and I shall rend your head from your shoulders, Elf... and nail it to my wall by the tips of your ears. :mad

[Crusader]

^^Finish the Assassins as fast as possible on sunday so that we can play this scene out :)

As you all know Operation Fox Hunt ends on Sunday the 30th.

[Makhaira]

*salutes*


*wanders off to sharpen her saber & try to remember how to do something OTHER than make a hat properly*

[Crusader]

Don't forget in one and a half hour we will kill Emperors or die trying!

...and with WE I mean you guys and girls.

You might have dodged the end of the world but will you escape Gaius Bald-Tar's blood curse?

[Saidra]

Nope. Kill the Emperor! I want some royal jewels!

[Glen Fiddich]

The Kurth Halx hoedown -

I'm Baron Kurth of Gareth: my hat looks like a bear;
I nearly drowned inside a swamp 'cause I don't have a pair;
I've come here to party, and drink until I'm sick;
I'm sorry guys, I've changed my mind, lets kill that Emperor prick.

[Dasquian the Elf]

Let's Kill <strike>Hitler</strike> the Emperor!

*falls over* OY.

[Dasquian Belargic]

...so when does the next story start? :D

[Makhaira]

I think the 13th?

[Crusader]

Since this one was pretty short there is just 500Xp for all of you for completion.

Plus 100Xp for all of you since you stayed reluctant to kill the Emperor till the very last moment and beyond. I think we had enough twists in the end without the one where the heroes decide to kill the emperor anyway in the end.

20Xp for all of you since you instantly lowerd your weapons once the curse was gone.

Rhone and Glen get 50Xp for finding the Assassin

Glen gets 20Xp for Carpet parachute assault tactics

Kurth gets 40Xp for figuring out the twist of the campaign first.

Makhaira, Kurth, Glen and Rhone get 30Xp for the battle in the secret vault

Dasquian and Saidra get 25Xp for socialising with and stealing from the high society of the Bornland.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Just a reminder for those of us who didn't level up from the last adventure yet :uhoh



Rhone 20Xp for figuring out the mechanics of the Ogre Spoon
10Xp for besting the Elf at tracking
10Xp for setting the woods on fire
Dasq 25Xp for fast talking the Ogres
Kurth 25Xp for the 13th Warrior moves
Saidra 5Xp for being a little Sissi
Glen 5Xp for making me laugh

Xp for the last sitting

Dasquian 20Xp for Operation Ogre Spooning
Saidra 40Xp for Operation Ogre Spooning and her wild engeeniring skills!

Glen 30Xp because he likes Weapons

Glen, Makhaira and Kurth 35Xp for solving the Side Quest: "A Problem of Allegiance in Wehrheim"

Glen 10Xp for starting a fake exercise in Wehrheim in order to mobilize the army there quicker

Don't forget this XP as well

[Dasquian Belargic]

Alright, with the help of Jace's handy spreadsheet calculator:

TO SPEND: 850XP

PERK Expert Shooter - 300XP
Willpower to Level 5 - 61XP
Riding to Level 7 - 138XP
Fast Talk to Level 5 - 31XP
PERK Horseback Archer - 200XP
SPELL Heal Poison to Level 5 - 28XP
Swim to Level 5 - 51XP

REMAINING: 41XP


Peter, could you let me know the stats used in Heal Poison so I can update my sheet accordingly?

[Crusader]

It is an artisan talent so in column B. I should probably make a list of all talents this week.

[Dasquian Belargic]

I got it from the 'Spells Elf' list, not Artisan talents.

[Crusader]

As a spell it is column A like the level up chart says under Spells Elf. For the dice roll I will have to make a list first.

[Dasquian Belargic]

That was what I wanted to check on, what the dice rolls would be :)

[Green Arrow]

I hope everyone remembered to count their experience from the first two sessions as well -


Everybody gets 50Xp for CSI Wehrheim
Glen 20Xp for not letting the guy lie around dead and naked
Kurth 20Xp for the scientific approach
Rhone 50Xp for figuring out the differences and the meanings of the dreams.


Xp for today:
50xp for Glen for asking about the whereabouts of the Emperor and therefore skipping a big chunk of the adventure by not infiltrating the Imperial Palace just to find out that the Emperor already left. :( (the twist would have been epic)
50Xp for everyone since the word Hobo was not mentioned anymore after the first hour
50Xp for the overall investigation in Gareth and Wehrheim for everyone
20Xp for the investigation in Festum for everyone
20Xp for Kurth since he is a silver/mithril tongued devil
20Xp for Makhaira and Dasquian for using their artisan skills
30Xp for Glen for saving Charley with his rope and not falling in the swamp or being paralyzed
30Xp for everyone for helping a merchant and surviving a Bornbear attack

[Glen Fiddich]

By my count, Glen has 990 XP to spend.

900 XP gets spent straight away on Used to Armor I, II, and III
88 XP gets spent on increasing my Willpower from 0 to 6

With 2 points left. :uhoh


Edit:

As far as filling in my character sheet goes for the fancy leather armour that Glen swiped... the AR value should be 3; and because I've got Used to Armor III, the EC value should be 0... is that correct?

[Makhaira]

Bless you both for reposting these...I haven't leveled yet.

Also, I need more options for skills...who's got that list handy?

[Dasquian Belargic]

Here's the perks list: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B2NNxQmzVQEjZ3dzUWZtQjJhUFk

[Makhaira]

Bless you! :D

Ok! So by my count, I had 2906 XP to spend. I have done so thusly:

-100 XP for Knockover Strike
-200 XP for Bind
-200 XP for Feint
-200 XP for Master Parry
