Walfilbalf looks to his audience as he finishes imparting the information overheard in the Black Tooth today. He scratches one bushy, red mutton-chop sideburn in thought, and ponders, "We gots ta warn them wot's in town. I reckon 'at this Yalgad feller's right. 'E could sail right inta tha 'arbor wit' nobody bothrin' 'em. Don' know 'ow much 'arm 'e could do wit' one ship, but I don' like da sound uvit."

Walf leans back, squinting and rubbing his chin, searching his brain for ideas. "Ey! If'n 'at Duke is angry 'bout not 'avin' da ship unloaded, maybe they ain' brought yer Lady friend up dere afterall. Could be they got 'er in tha uther ship, er maybe even dropped 'em off on an island, er..." He trails off, not wanting to voice other, far worse, possibilities.

 

[Aguirre]

Walfilbalf suddenly sits up straight, his eyes lighting with enthusiasm, "Ey! What if we were ta join them 'Claw' folks? When we got close ta Crolan, we could send up some sorta warnin', an' get the guards ta come an' stop Yalgad's pirates!" He grins proudly, displaying every inch of his huge gap-toothed smile.

Elendil after hearing Walfilbalf's comment finally voices what he has been able to come up with:

1. We can try and find passage on another ship ( leaving the Avonia and her crew to the fates ))

2. We can go to Yalgad and talk to him about the Avonia (( which might not be the most productive or the most healthy ))

3. We can go "talk" to Yalgad about the Avonia (( We could take him prisoner and get information out of him. )) (( our normal way of doing things, attack first, ask questions second ))

4. We could try to join the mission to attack Crolon and go from there. (( not quite sure how we would warn them since we would have to be in sight of the city and by that time it might be too late ))

"If any of you guys can think of something different or better, please share."

 

[Aguirre]

Walfilbalf looks somewhat dubious of the elf's suggestions, "I don' know 'bout you, but I don' think Yalgad'll wanna talk ta us. An' I don' know if we could fight ar way onta the ship, since town guards ain' likely ta like dat."

"Way I figger, is if we're on da ship when it's nearin' Crolon, we could send up a flag, er fire off a cannon, er whatnot. Maybe ya could even send up one o' them spells ye been talkin' bout. Jus' sumpin' ta wake up tha guards, an' tell 'em sumpin's goin' on."

Walfilbalf pauses, and considers, "Course... then we'd be on a ship fulla angry pirates... but I reckon we could figger sumpin' out."

(( Btw, I don't know if I made this clear, but I meant this to take place back in our room, with whomever had just returned from a day's snooping.))

(( As far as I can tell, I am caught up on responding to your actions. I will post with new actions reported. ))

 

[Aguirre]

(( My note was to other PCs, hoping that they might comment on Walfilbalf's 'plan' ))

 

[Ezieer]

Ezieer ends his activities. After checking up with the group and noticing Theodus's new potions.. he confers with the group.

"Well I didn't think of that.... perhaps we should getta quantity of potions fer us all. Two potions each... we can get rid o' some of our smaller coinage, lightin our load and get some potions ta boot. Wonder if they can make wands as well."

After hearing Walfi's thoughts...

"I ain't too sure of that... lets keep that fer an emergency..."

He whispers in a conspiritorial tone.

"Ha! I gots a great idea how to foil their plan though... if Azeem's got the spell power in him. An illusionary flag o' da skull and bones on the flagpost 'twould do most o' the alertin Crolon would need. Only problem would be keepin ourselves alive... from both sides of that arguement."

((Will pursue buying more potions... 2 each unless not desired by a party member. Take it out evenly with party funds. And determine whether they can make a CLW wand as well. Wand would reside in Azeem's control, but would be a party purchased item as well.))

Potions and Wand

Elendil thinking for a moment, nods towards Ezieer and says: "I would like to buy potions as well, and, if you feel like we need the wand, I'll pitch in for it.

(( As a side note I also have 2 CLW Scrolls. Also, my thinking is, if we go through our 10 potions, 2 scrolls, and 2 healing spells from the bards, we might need something more then a wand of CLW. ))

 

[Arkhandus]

((ooc, Ezieer, wands are specified as arcane or divine, so bards can't use divine wands of CLW, they can only use wands of CLW made by other arcane casters, meaning fellow bards. Theodus won't need any more potions himself now that's procured some, and would just like to take his share of the treasure at some point to use for buying supplies or scrolls later. DM, just to be clear, Theodus used his own gold for his donation at the temple. Also, I'm pretty sure we already divvied up a bit of that 'unclaimed treasure' before, as I know Theodus took the fallen priest's flail along with that CMW potion he had, the only stuff he cared to take as his share from that battle.))

Theodus listens to Walfibalf, Ezieer, and even that elf whatsisname D), then replies "Walf's idea t' join the mercs 'ere might work, but I dunno, they seem to only take good strong warriors, not scrawny elves an' humans wi' pansy swords." The dwarf grins. "Mayhap we're better off gittin' a ride off o' this rock on another ship, soon-like, an' get back t' Crolon 'afore the Beauty. Though, I still don' know how we're s'posed to find Lady Karnom an' her crew, let alone git them back their ship or nothin'..... Worse, I can't believe I left some o' me loot an' gear back on the Avonia......without me soap I'm gittin' itchy, an' me blade be gittin' a bit dull wi'out my whetstone...." Theodus grumbles.

 

[DMEntropy]

(( Also, keep in mind that each potion takes 1 day to brew. There are two junior priests at the temple so Theodus was able to get his two potions in one day. That was part of why he paid more than the typical price. And, Theodus is corrects about the wand. Bards need an Arcane Cure Light Wounds wand. ))

(( I used Theodus' gold for his purchases and donation. ))

(( Perhaps this would be a good time to finally divide up all of the listed treasure on the website? ))
