"Well, that's kind of tough," Ismene says, "Everything's urgent, and getting worse. In the last two days we've gone from having a possibility of Hzakan raids to one group of goblins here, and another on the way. The ant's are getting bolder, it looks like, and we've got the delegates coming in...

"Do you think that would work?" Ismene asks.

"Among the ants?" says Ekris. "I don't remember seeing any goblins, but I don't recall everything clearly." "We've seen the goblins here, though," Ismene says, smiling grimly. "These guys fought a bunch yesterday. Managed to capture one. He says he's down here with about fifty others, under...

Still somewhat disoriented, Hú Lí again begins playing her flute, but her magic has no effect on the foul creature.Standard: Blunder (Will) vs. Nylithati: 1(1d20) +8 +2 = 11; 6(1d6) +5 +5 = 16 another natural 1!The Black Fox Fox Spirit (Changeling) Bard 4 Initiative: +3, Passive Perception: 18...

"Too late for what?" Ismene asks. "I... I should start from the beginning," the woman says, sitting up so she can face her listeners. "My name is Ekris. Until... a month ago, I was a slave in the Hzakan Empire. I was a house slave and relatively well-treated, for they did not think of me as...

"Nah, straight into the army at 14. I'd still be there if they hadn't disbanded our cohort. Spent a lot of time in sentry duty, but the idea there was to let them know you were on duty. Well, that or not be seen at all."

The night passes without incident. Some of Ismene's people are up at first light, setting cooking fires, and the camp is already in motion by the time the sun is fully above the hills to the east. "I talked to your captive," Ismene says over breakfast. "I think I've figured out where he comes...

Hú Lí's playing grows louder and louder, beating against Takahaan's brain, but not penetrating. Then, without warning, she stops and lowers her flute. "I apologize, my friend," she says to Takahaan. "This creature's madness spills over. But I know again who our true enemy is."Standard...

Kaeysari stands guard outside the house, keeping a close watch but utterly failing to look like anything other than someone standing guard.Perception: 13(1d20) +11 = 24 Bluff to look nonchalant: 6(1d20) +2 = 8

Kaeysari looks dubious. "Well, I suppose," she says. "It's not like we're stealing things."

"Do you think anyone's at home?" Kaeysari asks quietly, "or if anyone still lives here at all?"

Hú Lí's playing trails off as she is fascinated by the witch's strange spell. For half a second she stops, then she begins again, sounding even more eerie than usual. The playing sounds particularly insistent to Takahaan, but it's only a momentary distraction. Hú Lí continues playing, her...

"How much wolfsbane do we need?" Kaeysari asks, looking increasingly dubious about spending time out looking for some plants that she can't even remember what they look like. "It looks like we've got a bunch already. Besides, we don't even know if it will do any good. It surely won't if we're...

"Fifty's a lot," Ismene says. "All the more reason to hope this conference goes well. I suppose someone we'll have to go take a look at them. Did he say where they were? Well, if he's talking, I suppose we'll eventually find out." "Hey, Dirk!" she shouts at a passing dwarf, "Take this...

Hú Lí steps gingerly across the floor, moving up to where she can see Nylithati. She plays a strange melody on her flute which seems to disconcert the witch. Move: to I8 Standard: Vicious Mockery (Will) vs. Nylithati: 11(1d20) +8 -2 = 17; 3(1d6) +5 = 8 and she is at -2 to attack rolls until the...

We are?

The trek back is not difficult, but it's getting dark when the group arrives in camp. The place is still bustling. Ismene sees the first of the adventurers arrive and walks over. "Did you find any..." she notices the additions to the group. "Ah. I see you did. Well, this one looks relatively...

Just to make it official, the loot distributed is: Horned Helm (heroic) Accurate Staff of the Serpent +2 Deep Pocket Cloak +2 Iron Armbands of Power (heroic) Boots of the Fencing Master Merry whatever!

Hú Lí dances forward, her eye fixed on the female figure at the end of the hall. She continues playing her flute, but her magic is not strong enough to affect her foe.Move: to N4 Standard: Vicious Mockery (Will) vs. Nylithati: 3(1d20) +8 = 11; 5(1d6) +5 = 10 miss. :(The Black Fox Fox Spirit...

Re: Loot I'm still trying to figure out how to get loot to y'all. (I suppose TCO could have been carrying it for no good reason). I hope that I can avoid using the Narnia method. By the way, those of you who don't have wish lists, if there are any types of items you're looking for (e.g...
