Bobitron, thanks so much for the reviews!! I really appreciate it! Hrothgar, I love the intro of some Fell in the cages. Classic!

As Herger and Valurel decide on directions, Mardo takes the moment to get some much-needed rest, sitting on the edge of the cart. His muscles suprisingly sore already, he realizes that moving a cart over rough prairie is much harder than the smooth trade paths leading between most towns. "One...

Mardo unteathers the two craft and scoops out the water in the bottom of the second boat. As he gathers his things for the journey, he finds that much of his supplies are going to be too heavy for overland travel. He puts a hunk of cheese into a sack with a candle, and ties the top of it with...

Madro joins the party The end of the tale brings a dire revelation to the gnome's mind, and the thought is immediately apparent on his face in the dancing shadows of the torchlight. "What an amazing tale... I must admit, nothing so spectacular has ever touched my own life." Remembering his...

Me too! :D Aside from my shock and amazement that you'd confide in a total stranger about the fact that you are enemies of the Shadow in deep occupied Erenland... ;) Well, it does present me with a bit of a pickle. It's going to take me a few days to read through everything that's...

"Yes, it's good that you decide to continue on foot, but as soon as I'm paid, I'll roll back downstream. I still need to get to the 'Sea, you see, and return this pathetic boat - preferably as quickly as possible. In the way of payment, perhaps you have some items of metal with which you could...

With a deep gulp, the gnome's eyes widen and he grips the rope in his hand even tighter. With a slight waver in his voice he replies, "Yes, perhaps so." When the man behind him speaks, the gnome lets out a slight gasp, not having realized that he was holding his breath. "Ah yes good elf,"...

OOC: pretty sure those screams are from "the north" and not "south" if they are the people of Elswier. As Mardo's covered skiff cuts into the current of the humble river, he moves from side to side, adjusting ropes and trimming the sail as they gain speed. "I can deal with them ninnies back in...

Hehe. Don't let nobody tell you that playing a spellcaster is for the faint of heart. According to the rules and the lore of the setting, Kaela doesn't need any contact with any spellcasters at all in order to learn magic, because she's of the charismatic tradition (read: self-taught). Also...

A note on learned spells From what I've gathered, it's a pretty common house rule to allow the number of spells that a character can learn per level to carry over from one level to the next. This means a character could learn a number of new spells equal to casting ability modifier x level...

Hey Hrothgar Just to be clear, what is that second boat we stole? I had referred to it as a raft, and you described it as a skiff. To me, a raft is a pretty cheap little thing that isn't even a boat. A skiff however, is a proper boat and worth something. I'm asking because I think a raft...

This is for Bobitron Bobitron, absolutely! I'll include here the spells you must have. As for the others, those are up to you. See, you could be learning new spells in the course of playing your character, if you wish to do so. As a charismatic channeler, you just "experiment with new...

"Yes yes, just hurry up with that line, will you? Oh gibbertiff, I'll get it myself." The gnome scoots over to the stern of his craft and resecures the line to the cleat, to ensure both crafts will be able to travel together. As the scout boards the skiff the gnome moves up close and with a...

Sorry about the delay. I'd been sequestered while serving on a jury. The most recent one is a big post, but hopefully that'll catch Mardo up to what everyone else had just done. I'm assuming there is a raft nearby that we could use, so if there's not let me know and I'll edit Mardo's actions.

"South? Oh, south will not do, no," says the gnome, shaking his head and showing concern for the giant. "Sorry for the misunderstanding friend, but I'm afraid I just came from there, and it would be a dire inconvenience for me to upset my travel plans." As the gnome hears the young girl's...

"the gnome" The gnome before you moves quickly across the top of his boat, securing the rigging and making adjustments to the ropes tied all around the craft, clearly very focused on his task. Distractedly he mumbles, "Why yes, I did come.." "Er, scuze me folks, yes I am coming from the...

No, I didn't get the email. If you replied through the site, that's why - I just updated my profile to have a working email address. If you sent it to the one that I mentioned in the message that I sent you, then something's wrong - a delay or something. This is the right one: bill [at]...

Hey Hrothgar, we have the same birthday! Happy b-day! So it looks like the players are getting close to talking to a colorfully-dressed gnome on a boat. I'd like to chat with you a bit about what's happening next, preferably "out in the hall." Can I email you?

Mardo should be ready. His background isn't extensive, but there are enough facts there for you to work with and build on, I think. If you have any questions or if you'd like me to elaborate on what's there, just let me know. I planned on him being sort of an anomoly in the world of Midnight...

Sounds good, thanks. I'm going to add some goods then and give him something better than just a handcart, like a raft. I just read through the first page of the fourth chapter today and understand a little more about where you all are. Mardo is a trader who travels from town to town...
