OOC for DM
The gloves I used are the Arcanist's Gloves (MIC p72). It can give a +2 boost to the caster level of a 1st level spell 3/day. As for the damage, 17*1.5=25.5 and I rounded down. Any other issues?
Kerlan looks around for any other possible threats and then uses a Pearl of Power to recall Kelgore's Fire Bolt. Listen and Spot checks (1d20+4=12, 1d20+5=25)

Ok, my bad. Sorry! Nope, no issues.
Didn't I tell you? I'm math impaired sometimes, too.


No more threats are evident, but Kerlan does spot what seems to be the "nest" used by several owlbears in a little hollow back in the side of the 'cliff' by the streambed.

"Math Impaired" huh? You know I was wanting to try out some "Creative Bookkeeping", what do you think?
IC: "Look, over there. I see what looks like a possible nest. It's over there by the streambed in the side of that 'cliff'. That must be what we're looking for."

That's just mean, dude!

OOC: You know, now that I think about it, "embankment" is probably a better word for it than "cliff."

[ooc] or low bluff? [/ooc]

Capizzio looks to see if there is a safe way down and then slowly makes his way along the embannkment below his feet.

Taking a ten for a full action on climb. climb +5, so a 15.

Capizzio takes his time as he looks for handholds aboung the roots and dirt leading to the waters edge. He will then move toward the nest at the base of the low bluff as pointed out by Kerlin.

Capizzio
Capizzio does, indeed, see that a shallow cave has been hollowed into the embankment, and there is a nest in the shallow cave! Capi is pretty sure that he can see an egg in the nest.

Kerlan follows Capizzio to the nest and looks at the egg. "Well, from what I understand of the magic involved, one of our magical backpacks should be able to transport the egg safely. It shouldn't be subject to the movement from the outside. What do you think?"

BUT WAIT! That's not ALL!

Upon getting closer to the next and having a clearer view of the situation, Capizzio and Kerlan see that there are THREE Owlbear eggs, not one as they first thought.

Kerlan grins and makes a bow, saying "Thank you kindly, I believe I shall." He then delicately picks up the large egg and places it gently into the backpack.

OOC: Hehehe, no, thanks. And, sorry about the 'monkey-boy' business. I had a roommate in college who called me that all the time. In a weird way, I think maybe it was a term of endearment? Anyway, after a year or two of grad school he ran off to Ireland with this great Irish nurse who was here on some kind of nurse-exchange (?) program. The last time I saw him was when he came for a visit in about 1998(?).

OOC: Is that monkey-boy biz a reference to the movie, "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension"? Where the alien Dr. Lizardo was tossing it out at humans as they are related to apes?

"Um, what are we going to do with these eggs? Make Omelets? I'm guessing owlbears don't make good pets."

"Evidently they do, if you know how to raise them. Xavier said they're worth about 3,000 gold. That makes this a tidy sum for us."

"That's right some of us were paying attention in class rather than oggling the cute bio teacher, although owlbear omelets sounds pretty delicious as well" Xavier teases, then licks his lips thinking about the omelette
