In fact some even seem different as if the experience<BR> gained through this quest changed them physically ad
mentally.<BR><BR> Ben'dar for example looks stronger and he twirls his spear<BR> in his hands as if more coordination. He also looks just<BR> slightly even more controlled as if more will full. All the<BR> properties around those changes also seem to change like his<BR> physical well being and his expertise in skills.<BR><BR> Caladan leaning on his staff looks stronger, agile and<BR> otherwise faster. He also looks a bit smarter and determined<BR> overall. He also looks more powerful physically and mentally<BR> as if transformed into a new person.<BR><BR> Raban smiling at Unali with the talisman seems to have grown<BR>
bigger and more powerful. It looks like the man could lift<BR> another 50 pounds easily now. Being stronger of course makes<BR> him even more dangerous. The scary part is Raban knows that he<BR> can learn even more to hand to hand combat. He imagines himself<BR> with lethal hands more so now.<BR><BR> Chino looks the same not changing at all it seems.<BR><BR> If the party makes it outside Strie'bog looks a bit smarter<BR> but has changed little elsewise.<BR><BR> Fremea seems a bit more agile and able to weld her dagger<BR> with more confidence. She also seems a bit smarter and stronger<BR> in magical abilities.<BR><BR>
Kiet is even different with a stronger looking body in terms<BR> of conditioning now. He also seems a bit smarter looking having<BR> learned from the experience.<BR><BR> Unali seems stronger looking as well as more physical<BR> conditioned since the battle started. It is clear she<BR> can handle just about anything with those daggers. As<BR> she places the talisman in her palm she twirls her magical<BR> dagger deftly like it flexing a finger. She also seems to<BR> be aware that her skill in such dagger will also improve.<BR><BR><BR> ----------<BR><BR><BR>
[Time: 3:27:17pm - 2:27:32pm]<BR><BR> Z'leyra struggles against Will's lip embrace. This is<BR> the second time she has fallen for that ploy. Back on<BR> the flying castle island she was attacked in the same way.<BR> Ben'dar had almost died in the final battle and used that<BR> chance to get cop a feel and take liberty.<BR><BR> Z'leyra leans back on her haunches and ignores Will. She<BR> glances behind her and notices Ben'dar is grinning a bit<BR> too much. Z'leyra turns around and finishes to do first<BR> aid check on Will. Finding him stable she turns her attention<BR> to Raban and finds his major damage is the kidney
damage.<BR> He is bleeding bad but while most humans would be dead by<BR> now his large frame might take much longer to shut down.<BR><BR> Raban rolls over so the Healer can check his back. He<BR> watches the others and listens to Z'leyra carefully. The<BR> Bard hears Unali talk about the brain but is too weak to<BR> go and help the dagger maiden.<BR><BR> Farseeker watches the wizard who wanted Lin dead.<BR><BR> Lin looks around and considers his options at this time.<BR> His friends must be outside somewhere if not already trying<BR> to storm the place.<BR><BR> Unali's brother looks at the fleeing outcast on the
strange<BR> animal.<BR><BR> Unali to Chion and Arawn "Good plan. We must take Arawn along.<BR> ARAWN, come quick. Let's hop over. This should control the brain.<BR> You made most contact. I think it's your call."<BR><BR> Arawn watches the fleeing Outcast and glances over at<BR> Fremea.<BR><BR> Arawn sensed the Outcast's hesitation, coming to the<BR> conclusion that the Vong was not necessarily bad, but definitely<BR> scared and overwhelmed. He dared not risk any more time calling<BR> out down the chasm, turning quickly when he heard Unali's voice.<BR> The warrior-assassin was a woman of few words and if she called<BR>
for him he knew it was likely something important.<BR><BR> Rushing into the cave he spotted Chion beside her along with an<BR> odd looking device. Guessing at her plan he raced to join her,<BR> taking her offer of the talisman in the process. "I'm ready."<BR><BR> As Arawn rushes back inside he hears Unali's brother say.<BR> "Look there! A man in danger!"<BR><BR> At the stairs Fremea looks down far below to the area<BR> the stranger is pointing. She wonders why this man is<BR> not freaking about her form. Then the Fae notices a form<BR> on top of a flyer. She reaches for her spyglass and spots<BR> the man quickly. She can hear faint
yelling over the whisk<BR> of air blowing past her. The man seems to be wearing a leather<BR> tunic and black pants. The man is holding onto a Flyer<BR> antennae. Below him the air field is a blazing with the<BR> fire of the creeping lava. It seems the ground has been<BR> cracking and more pockets of lava is coming up. The hard<BR> reinforced flyers are now cracking under the heat and damage.<BR> The flyer the human is on is tilting and about to fall on<BR> its left side which surely would send the man into the lava.<BR> The right side is virtually crumbled and open so the man must<BR> have been inside until this happened.<BR><BR>
Unali's brother looks at the winged creature as if to ask<BR> what to do now?<BR><BR> Back in the cave Kiet nods to Kell's request. He wonders<BR> if he fails will the creature turn on him or Kell? Surely<BR> Kell will be killed but he might flee in time. It isn't<BR> how tough you are but who is fastest to run away.<BR><BR> Kell sighs in relief as Kiet agrees. "Thanks! I don't<BR> want him deciding to crush us." Giving the acrobat a friendly<BR> pat on back.<BR><BR> Chion sees Arawn run in and nods. "Aboard the express!"<BR> Just a few years ago he had to touch folks, such creepy<BR> way to
teleport. Now he doesn't need that range. Just<BR> to be in the general area. Chion nods to Unali and<BR> Arawn and realizes that no one else will ride the express.<BR> Chion casts the spell quickly and the three teleport to<BR> the other side 1000 feet away onto the stairs to the<BR> entrance of the brain cave.<BR><BR> Kiet casts the spell to banish the rock and waits and<BR> waits. He shifts foot when he realizes the looming<BR> creature is looking at him. At least with no eyes he<BR> thinks he is being stared at. He clears his throat to<BR> let Kell know the spell failed or he isn't trained for<BR> this
activity.<BR><BR> Kell turns away from watching Z'leyra with Raban and<BR> sees Rocky still here. That is not good.<BR><BR> Will sits up feeling much better. He glances down<BR> at his transmuted armor with the big hole in it. The<BR> Vong must die. Then he looks over and sees him dead<BR> and shrugs. He stands and looks around to see what<BR> he has missed.<BR><BR> On the other side of the cavern the trio end up<BR> about 30 feet to the threshold of the cave. They<BR> immediately see the outcast laying on his back at<BR> the threshold. It seems the field that blocks the<BR>
Brain must've knocked him or killed him. The animal<BR> flying is on the ground a few feet away seemingly<BR> dormant as well. The animal that made the outcast<BR> invisible must've been knocked out or killed as well<BR> revealing him.<BR><BR> Chion whirls around sensing something and pulls his<BR> sai. At the railing the strange creature of energy<BR> or fire, he still isn't sure what stands with his back<BR> to the trio. Arawn turns and notices it seems to be<BR> staring at the Kotothi portal. It turns and points<BR> to Chion and to the cave. Chion glances at the<BR> cave and sees his Gnarish still on the
ground. He<BR> must have lost it when he was damaged. Chion nods<BR> and realizes that it can communicate with him that<BR> way.<BR><BR> Meanwhile Arawn studies the cave as well and can<BR> hear faint yelling from a male like voice below.<BR> It sounds like it is way far below maybe on the<BR> ground. He grips the talisman and walks toward<BR> the threshold. The creature allowed the party<BR> to pass through with no harm so it should allow<BR> them to pass.<BR><BR> Unali goes to the railing and looks down. Far<BR> below almost due south of them is the form of<BR>
a man on top of a flyer. But he is at least a few<BR> hundred feet down below taking the stairs.<BR><BR> Actions? Comments?<BR><BR> Next Update...Monday...<BR><BR> GM: A good place to end. :) I did 15 seconds due to<BR> the talking took more time. Still plenty to<BR> react to. I will do as much as 30 seconds or<BR> more if the talking is needed.<BR><BR> GM: Mana report renamed and placed in a "old mana" report.<BR> I've cleared the info from the battles in the mountain<BR> away and cleaned it up into a new report. This way<BR> you can just
keep track then until new adventure<BR> website is placed.<BR><BR> Some new character sheets have been resent. You<BR> should should review. Keep in mind items with<BR> damage. I've posted such FV damage in the mana report<BR> over the long run. Many sheets have items almost<BR> broken or destroyed. Some like a simple dagger might<BR> be just cheaper to buy new one since most folks are<BR> rich enough. But for magical you'll need to fix those<BR> or suffer the results later. These items are manly<BR> the
weapons/armor. You will see a FV-X item the -X<BR> is how much has been removed.<BR><BR> GM: Right now we have a new player! He may show up later<BR> or immediately. Never know who it might be? The<BR> wizard? The 4 prisoners? The brain? Ok. Well maybe<BR> not him as he'd need a BIG horse.<BR><BR> GM: Last time I placed a vote for IBT time. For those who<BR> may be new or joining this is In-between Time. The<BR> time between adventures. It is a way to relax, make<BR> items, do side things needed to be done and the like.<BR> A lot use it
to learn a new skill or make magical items.<BR> This reflects the time for one adventure to another<BR> rather than immediate action. For role playing purposes.<BR> I've done it as little as 2 weeks and as much as 3 months.<BR> Will I do this for the next adventure. I honestly do not<BR> know at this point. But in case the debriefing which<BR> may tie into the next adventure demands immediate response<BR> or not, I will take a vote. See below. Fremea will be<BR> the leader next adventure so it really is largely based<BR> on what she wants done after the
debriefing. BUT in case<BR> I work the adventure details (sadly I only have a outline<BR> at this point) more which means time will allow it or not<BR> is not determined yet. But in case I do allow it I'll listen<BR> to your votes just in case. I know some want to make<BR> items and some want to return to the Dark Lands for<BR> example. So we shall see.<BR><BR> GM: Below you will find a quick set of notes on who has<BR> completed character sheet updates (CPs) and who will<BR> be in the next adventure. If they are retired they<BR> will
not be in the next adventure. Who knows they<BR> could return for another adventure. Raban was going<BR> to retire to chase girls. With John dead I figure it<BR> would be good. But Tobie has requested him to return<BR> for the next adventure so I will do so. Those who<BR> leave will make things smaller and easier in some<BR> regards. We could have potentially 2 new characters.<BR> I will assume will play unless you stay otherwise<BR> if your a active player.<BR><BR> The above is a general outline on character improvements.<BR>
You can read between the lines I believe. Imagine for<BR> example Raban increasing his HtH max EL skill! This<BR> means he will do far more damage! A simple slap with<BR> his hand could do 17-23 damage on a tap. Scary not<BR> including the new combat skill max ELs. Scary guy.<BR><BR> Most have already been completed and sheets have been<BR> sent out. Seems quicker than has been in the past.<BR> Some around 3 or 4 of you are now maxed out (those<BR> that I've done) stat wise. Because of this I'm considering<BR> some options. See below. I
already do the rule that<BR> any excess expertise goes to xEP.<BR><BR> GM: Votes needed :<BR><BR> 1) CP excess changes<BR><BR> With Stats maxed the excess CEP/MEP get pooled. Some<BR> might figure this fair and end there using what they have.<BR> But with long term active players maybe a reward for simply<BR> playing that long should be given? I have not outlined<BR> all the rules on this but let's consider excess CPs or just<BR> CEP/MEP can be used to buy stuff:<BR> * Gold (Maybe per 100 its 10 gold? Dunno)<BR>
* Luck (Per X you can buy 1 Luck event (roll or action))<BR> * Get out of trouble - Per X get 1 re-roll if things go bad<BR> * Change multipliers option: See Alex's post on PNP List<BR> * Etc, other stuff<BR><BR> So let's vote on this. You can decide on your future.<BR> Vote for No change or Yes for new rules. There are 7<BR> who are active who can vote. Farseeker will retire for<BR> awhile so will not vote. This means it takes 4 votes to<BR> make a majority. I will take votes till next adventure<BR>
