[QUOTE="Tellerian Hawke, post: 7012388, member: 6790669"] [b]The Battle at Twilight[/b] As another day draws to a close, the party reflects upon recent happenings... [gm] [B][U]Patchwall 12, CY 693:[/U][/B] The party left Caltaran at 11:00 am. The party arrives at the Dyvers gates at about 6:30 pm. The party reached the garrison and had just finished tethering the horses and unloading the prisoner at 6:50 pm. The battle took place at 6:51 pm. It lasted about 6-7 rounds, which is about 42 seconds; less than a minute, but we'll round up. The battle concluded at 6:53 pm. The guards come bumbling out of the barracks at 6:55 pm. The sun set at 7:02 pm. Therefore, this battle shall henceforth be known as "The Battle at Twilight." :D [/gm] Lieutenant Benquist offers to pay for rooms for the party to sleep in for the night, at the inn across from the Eastern garrison gate. That way, the party can save itself the 45 minute walk back to Moresby Hall. [gm] For expediency, I am assuming that the party agrees to this. That way I won't have to roll night time encounters for the trip back to Dewydd's manor. [/gm] [b]Vega jokingly says,[/b][color=teal] "Yesterday at this time, we'd just finished digging several graves, and were headed back to the inn in Caltaran, just as the sun was setting. Today, we've just finished fighting an intense battle, and are headed to another inn, here in Dyvers; and the sun is setting as we speak. It seems that we really enjoy a hard day's work. We don't ever seem to quit until the sun sets! Ha ha."[/color] [gm] This is not the end of the chapter, and we're not ready to switch threads yet. From now on, I am going to switch to a new thread after every 30 pages or so. [B][U]However, I do feel that it is time to award XP. So here we go:[/U][/B] [B]Story Award:[/B] Each member [B][COLOR="#0000FF"]1,000 xp.[/COLOR][/B] for Berringer's safe delivery. [B]Story Award:[/B] Each member [B][COLOR="#0000FF"]1,000 xp.[/COLOR][/B] for protecting Beringer during the battle. [B]Combat Award:[/B] Each member [B][COLOR="#0000FF"]1,900 xp.[/COLOR][/B] for facing dire threats in combat. [b]Roleplaying Award:[/b] Each member [b][color=blue]750 xp.[/color][/b] for excellent roleplaying all around. [B][U]Individual XP Awards:[/U][/B] [B]Sylvar: [COLOR="#0000FF"]+250 xp. [/COLOR][/B]for the delightful ballad. [B]Lathir: [COLOR="#0000FF"]+500 xp.[/COLOR][/B] for bravery, and for making me laugh. [B]Dewydd:[COLOR="#0000FF"] +300 xp.[/COLOR][/B] for the awesome display of prowess in combat! [B]Kasnik: [COLOR="#0000FF"]+300 xp.[/COLOR][/B] for the awesome display of prowess in combat! [B]Vega: [COLOR="#0000FF"]+300 xp.[/COLOR][/B] for drawing first blood! [/gm] The party secures their belongings in their respective rooms, and then meets in the common room for supper. Just as the meal is winding down, at about 8:30 pm, the Court Wizard arrives, and approaches the party's table. [b]The Wizard says,[/b] [color=red]"I was told that you fellows were in need of my services? My name is Terrence Tulane, and I am one of the Dyvers Court Wizards, working directly in the service of Lord Mayor Margull. I'm told that you need some items identified?"[/color] [B][I]Everyone: What do you do?[/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
