    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack blinks, twice, in astonishment at Aric's handling of the undead remains. He's without words, but just for a moment. Then, he glances at the smoldering heap with a mischievous grin, some thoughts taking shape. "Well, if we're turning undead to cinders, why not be efficient about it? Once...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack lets out a lighthearted chuckle as he floats closer to Brydum, his eyes and wings twinkling with mirth. "Brydum, my friend, you haven't had too many of Angrom's 'mountain spring waters' influencing your button-pushing decisions, have you?" he jests, a playful smirk playing on his lips. "But...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack, with a flicker of his luminescent wings, gracefully flutters to a strategic vantage point, settling in a position where he anticipates having a good view as the secret door swings open, while leaving plenty of distance. A chill of air begins to swirling around his fingertips, as he...

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    Deffo not waning interest. Been very very busy. I have some unexpected work that's come up this week too. But I will do my best to keep up.

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    Jack is reliant on light from the party. As a fairy, he has Druidcraft as a cantrip which could light a torch or fire if necessary. I've been roleplaying a shimmer from his wings that plays up his mood and energy, but he doesn't have any specific class feature that actually produces magical light.

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack gives Angrom a knowing grin, "That must be some special spring, Angrom, where the water flows with a hint of grain. Dwarven springs never cease to amaze! Anyway, I prefer to keep my wits as sharp as my blade before a delve. There'll be plenty of time for toasting once we're not the ones...

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    Just a few notes for you @Quickleaf as we get started with the dungeon crawl, given that we haven't taken a long rest in a while: Jack has 2x lvl-1 spell slots left (all his other spell slots are spent) Jack has 1 sorcery point left (the other 2 are spent) Jack's Tides of Chaos ability was used...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack steps forward with a modest bow, stopping to stand slightly behind his companions, his posture conveying respect to the Dain and a mindful deference to Zeth and Lumrolur's lead in the dialogue. "Dain Silverstream, I am Jack Everfrost, humbled to stand before you in your esteemed hall. Our...

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    I'm good with meeting with the Dain, and getting on our way. I was thinking about whether meeting with Drizzt might be helpful or harmful for our party. He could be a guide/mentor, or he could be a foil, tough to say. Jack would be skeptical of Drizzt's intentions, just due to preconceptions...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack chuckles, catching Lumrolur's wink and adding, "Should we encounter any of those unwelcome undead, a vial or two of that blessed water should do the trick." Jack flutters up above and exclaims, "I'll take to the skies and give those ground-bound ghouls a proper celestial shower. Undead...

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    I think we should focus on getting to Termalaine as fast as possible. If there's an underground route that we could have a chance of rushing through, and it's reasonable that we could attempt to avoid combat and move quickly, let's go for it. If we no longer have a fighter in heavy plate, we...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    With a glint in his eye, Jack accepts the offered flask of dwarven liquor, tipping it back for a hearty swig. As the potent mushroom brew hits his palate, his face contorts in a brief moment of surprise at its strength, before settling into a grin of satisfaction. Wiping a drop from his chin...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack watches the exchange unfold with a mix of concern and amusement, the corners of his mouth twitching when he sees the expression on the dwarf guard's face upon hearing Zeth's inopportune choice of words, incomprehensible to Jack. Clearing his throat, his voice smooth and reassuring, laced...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack runs a hand through his hair, casting a wistful glance towards the snowflakes that swirl menacingly in the wind and the whiteout of the distant but approaching storm. "Well, as much as I'd love to dance with a blizzard—there's a certain thrill to being at the mercy of the Frostmaiden's...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack nods thoughtfully, the flickering firelight casting dancing shadows across his face. "A Goat of Tribulation, you say, with mismatched horns and a penchant for mischief in the pass? Sounds like the very sort of creature that would choose the solitary heights of Kelvin's Cairn for its...

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    As long as we can be reasonably certain of the NPCs safety, I'm okay with either the moderate-risk or the high-risk option of pressing on to Termalaine without a long rest. If anyone else would like to go that route, how about we ask Keenan and Garrett if we could borrow their sled dogs? Maybe...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack arches an eyebrow, "not necessarily safer has a certain ominous ring to it. What are we expecting down there?" But then, as he sweeps his hand toward swirling snowflakes beginning to descend, his features soften to characteristic joy, "Look at that, the blizzard is about to throw us a...

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    I'd rather go with a long rest and ride out the storm. Squishy spell casters need their beauty sleep. How about let's see if Keegan is willing to part with the sled dogs (at least the ones who are in condition to go on) and then, after the blizzard, we head over the tundra to Termalaine.

    [OOC] Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden [closed for now]

    I vote for heading back to base camp. If it were just our party involved (including Ludo) I'd be okay with a high-risk option. But what is the point of risking the lives of tired sled dogs and 3 helpless NPCs when we came all this way to rescue them. @VLAD the Destroyer made a big sacrifice...

    (IC) Quickleaf's Rime of the Frostmaiden

    Jack shifts his weight from one foot to the other, gazing thoughtfully at the ominous wall of ice before turning his attention back to the group. "You know, as much as I appreciate the allure of the unknown and the call of adventure," he begins, his voice tinged with his usual blend of humor and...
