At the Inn of the Fortunate Minotaur

[Tom Cashel]

There are warriors (veterans of the Ghazneth War), blacksmiths, wheelwrights, merchants, farmers, even gnomish friars, amongst the caravaners. They need you folks to defend them against Horrible Nasties. Beyond that, they're pretty self-sufficient.

They're headed to the Utter North to settle in one of the harshest and most forbidding areas of the Realms, after all...sheesh.

Better to ask stupid questions than to die stupidly

 

[Tom Cashel]

For sure! That's why I said

 

[Mahiro Satsu]

Must have missed that part . Anyway that is comforting to hear. It would have been ironic if they got to their destination and had no clue what to do.

Lenet, did you take that sword or not? I'm trying to finalize my purchases here....

The People

[OOC: I finished detailing the people of the Rolf-Lenumbrar Expedition last night...with the use of an online NPC generator I whipped up random statblocks for every last one of them (except infants and newborns). It's pretty cool to see their appearances, personalities, skills, etc. growing, and then extrapolating the interpersonal relationships and political dynamics of the group. It'll be fun to see how you all interact with them. In short, I'm looking forward to Sunday!]

What'll it be, Lenet? Van won't be there on Sunday to divvy up the stuff.

Mike, thanks for putting together the list.

Matt, I have chosen a Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) as my animal companion. This great bird is found from the tip of Alaska to the tip of Tierra del Fuego therefore it is highly adaptible to all kinds of environments. It eats many different types of small animals and has amazing eyesite. Plus they are cool looking.

 

[Tom Cashel]

Very nice. I'll print up some stats for you. Remember that you yourself cannot actually turn into a hawk...your shape-shifting powers are limited in the sizes you can assume. Hawks are "tiny." Just noticed that the other day.

Thanks Matt, I am now able to shape change into a small to large animal so I need to read up on what falls into that category.

What? Van wont be there? I was going to ask him if i could borrow a book!

You're a stinker!
