[QUOTE="Binks, post: 6384875, member: 6775039"] I don't have any follow-ups or appeals. I think I'm pleased with that. I'll reply to Esmer: Hopefully he responds in the affirmative. If he does, I'd like to ask him the following questions: * What manner of being is this Rotting Man? Does he know a true story or legend? * I've heard of him slaughtering challengers in his chamber. Has he seen the lair personally? Has he seen any of these challenges? If so, can he tell me anything about the nature of this creature's home or his power? * His men are all archers, yes? Do they have any shaman or infantry amongst their ranks? We shouldn't bring too many warriors as a larger force will hinder our ability to access the lair with the Rotting Man unawares. I let him know that I'm going to cast the Traveler's Camouflage ritual on all of us tomorrow. * Is there any other entrance into the lair besides "the front door"? After that, I will urge him to take up Esmer's offer to formally receive an envoy of the clans in their island home. It would be good for all involved. I will speak to the strengths and trustworthiness of Esmer and Terilion's people. In the hour before that, and after the short meal, again, I'm going to go see the children. I'd like to convince Terilion to leave Yamel and Esmer to speak and to join me so each of the children can meet him. I want them to know that they can trust him. He is a good man with strong paternal instincts. He will protect them. And I look him in the eye when I say that to the children. When we part with the children (after hugs, etc), I will quietly say to Terilion; I give him the two charms that I made for he and his daughter and tell him that they are blessed by the Maiden of the Moon of my homeland. She protects all of her chosen against the Moon Madness and its spawn. I will place one charm around the neck, coil the other into his open palm, embrace him. I will pull back and say: I will smile warmly and sincerely, turn and walk away without looking back. [sblock]I rolled a 10 and 11. Both of us pass the high DC.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
