3.5 Greyhawk - Against the Slavers (closed)

Li and Uriel, sounds good. I leave the details up to you. I'm not going to step in and tell you you're not doing something "in character" however you want to arrange buying/selling services or goods among PC's (well, within reason). Just make in-game posts if you're going to spend all day doing something. The captain will let you use the cabin for item creation.

As an aside, you'll have a few days travel on the captured pirate boat, but you'd have to think of a pretty good reason for crafting items then. You'll be travelling in hostile territory, and I think it'd be unlikely a wizard would let himself/herself get that vulnerable.

I can create them in a Rope Trick'ed space as far as danger goes. Gwystyl keeps one handy every day, not that he's paranoid.

IC: Gwystyl spends the better part of day two on the boat grumbling about Sorcerors and cheating during card games. He was sure that he had the winning hand with 3 griffins and a dragon High. Well, finished at last.
Climbing down, the Elf hands the 2 Scrolls over to his new Companion, hesttating for a second and squinting at Maelstrom, hoing to catch him grin or snicker or do something else to give himself away that he had cheated. After all, Gwystyl had been known to use Prestidigitation during a game or two
himself. The rule was, you don't get caught, you didn't cheat.

<6 XP deducted from Gwystyl's total. 15,063 now>

Snipehunt,

Sorry for the delay in posting. I got married back on the 27th and have been moving my house this past week. It makes for a long couple of weeks. I will finish my character up as I haven't bought anything to date. I will make the adjust ments and be in the game tonight or tomorrow night at the latest.

Rowena's mount

Manzanita, do you want your mount along? There's not much use for it in the slavery, but just wanted to make sure.

Rope trick. That's such a surprisingly useful spell. Here's a question. What happens when you cast a rope trick from a moving object such as a ship? Does it move with the ship, or stay stationary where cast? I've never had this come up (no pun intended). There's plenty of time to get those scrolls done before any action.

Quote from the PH: Those in the extradimensional space can see out of it as if a 3 by 5 foot window were centered on the rope.

I would surmise that the opening (and thus, the space) were contingent upon the rope, which may hang freely. I'm not sure how you would do it, but one might rule that the opening/space moves with the rope. The rope, inside a ship's hold/quarters for example, wouldn't ]phase' through the ships hull as the ship moved, but might mean that the Ropetrick's window would be slightly off, seeing as it would contact the ship's hull/othe rsolid objects as the ship moved around it, though staying within the Ship.

Odd situation, and one that I have addressed before in game, with the above-mentioned ruling, though that is just me, and not Canon, of course. Either way, I'm OK with your ruling.
