Anything But Normal, Sailing the Endless Falls

[Rystil Arden]

I'm agreeable to it

Seriously, as long as no one else is bothered by it, I'm up for it. I've already suggested a few ways to deal with Fee (Oddly enough, using her as an NPC captain would work too) , and I've been following the thread here for the most part, so it wouldn't be too much work for me to put in how he met and feels about the others.

Nissa could have even met Ekilu earlier in her travels and hit it off swimmingly (pun, sorry) considering their shared interest in fey and aquatic natures. Then maybe later she asked him for help in saving Aldri.

ouch, i threw a little healing on Vaukriel (6 potions) but thats about it. Yeah we need healing and Bront is definitely a good addition to any party. Whether you are okay with 7 or not is up to you Isida, as you are asking us however, I am good with it.

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Bront, you've got mail!

 

[Bront]

Or perhaps he served on a ship they were on at one point. I'm sure we can work on something.

Looks like I give you a huge boost in the Healing and Swim Skill, and a second good survival skill. I may also win the Fort and Will save.

Just don't ask me for reflex save or stealth

 

[Bront]

Bront, you've got mail!

Great!

Unfortunately I can't check it here.

I'll e-mail you my work addy, you can send a copy there (if you can).

You do have the best Swim. Also, now my horse doesn't have the best Listen skill in the party any more Actually, the best Swim used to be Anemone too. Poor Anemone--you marginalise his skills

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

Bront, you have more mail!

Well, I guess the decision's already been made, but I'd actually have preferred not to add another character. Nothing against Bront, but I just don't see it as a problem we can't overcome on our own. Between the high-unhittable Nissa, powerful distance attacks, and good scouting and free-action -5 penalties to attacks from Lupaz, not mention excellent roguery and flight from Vaukriel and Tempest, I think we can do just fine without heavy healing. But if you guys want to do it, I guess I'm okay with it.

And Rystil - Lupaz has Survival +12. And Track. And Scent (and both dark- and low-light vision, might want to mark that under Spot). C'mon, give me a little credit, man. And his Intimidate is actually better than it looks because he has a frequently-cast spell that combines with an item to give +5 on the check and the ability to do a doubled-duration demoralize as a swift action. And don't forget who has access to disguise self when you're figuring our strengths in that area.

I'm also considering putting the recouped Stealth ranks in Gather Information, so that'd give me a very respectable +13 in that skill, adding more to our information-gathering abilities.

Got it.

I'll put that last part we talked about in.

Does the Island Ship have a name?

Nothing can stand up to healing, though. Not distance attacks, not scouting, not buffs.

As to the chart of stuff--I accidentally said Vaukriel, but I meant Lupaz for Survival. For Disguise Self, I do have that listed for Lupaz in additional notes.
