Time for some author commentary!This was our first game after a three week hiatus, in which the DM was on vacation. As you might expect, e-mails about what to do with Milo went back and forth.Milo's player didn't want to make a new character, but since we weren't able to secure a body, I knew resurrection would be difficult. I didn't really think True Resurrection would be a possibility, so I never brought it up with the group.Milo's player thought up the Soulmech idea, which I thought was brilliant. It almost seemed like we had planned it from the beginning. Before I go further, let me mention the robot husk. Without reading the first few sessions, I am not sure if I ever mentioned it. See, in the hangar with the hover tanks, there was a non-operational assembly area with a robot builder. The robot builder had had all of its circuitry removed at some point, however, and all that remained was a metal humanoid robot husk. For some reason I still don't know, Milo insisted on bringing it along. When we were turning him into a Soulmech, it seemed fitting to use the robot husk for his future robot body. And in fact we nearly made him a Soulmech. We had figured out how much everything was going to cost, and it was in the area of 11,000, I believe. During all of this, Milo's player was looking in the PHB. Suddenly, he asks for the price of a True Resurection. We total it up, and we end up saving around 7,000! Next thing you know Milo is talking about starting Milo's True Resurrection Life Insurance.Anyway, the DM kept trying to get us to go to the hotel, or do anything other than shop really. We had a lot of money after selling the loot we had though. Many of the Psionic items the group picked up were useless to us, since we lack any Psionically active members.As a side note, the two swords Orendil took from the base were both exceptionally powerful. One was a +4 Defender I believe. The other was a +5 Life-Draining Silver Sword. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> Anyway, when we got to Daar (much to the DM's chargin) we shopped even MORE! When we finally went to bed, the guy burst into our room. It was so late though, we just called it a night. Which is what I am going to do now. Bye!</blockquote>
