Discussion for a Kingdom of ashes OOC II

[AIM-54]

For these two- I think Tim is spear/crossbow, but I am not 100% on that one.
For the dagger... does everyone have a sharp point weapon to slice throats with? (except Kareth who just likes to 'grrr.. smash')

But as kennon said if not specific to someone we can sell them and get nicely tailored weapons to each person...

Kaereth has a kama+1 as well as his shortspear of ki strike if anything needs to get sliced. By him at any rate. Mostly he prefers his fists of fury. *giggle* Ahem.

Awesome, did we just buy this? or did Xath work some ...um... magic and earn it?

It was in the pile of treasure you got in Ahrianna Blackadder's chamber.

all really the same question.

Has it rained/snowed in the last two days? In no mans land... is it dusty dry dirt, wet mud, dead branches or woods just chopped down and left? Is it barren from trees to wall, or is anything in the way? (yes, I know that we know of/can see)

No man's land was once part of the city proper. Buildings have been razed to the ground, basements filled in with soil, and the building materials that could be salvaged used to build the wall around Oceanus. It is a flat, open plain specifically designed to provide NO COVER to anyone approaching within 1/4 mile of the wall, either from the inside of the city, or the outside.

Remember, The Alder's forest is approximately 30 miles north of the city of Oceanus. So, there is a lot of open space (mostly rolling plain) between the trees and the wall. Nonetheless, there are a few abandoned buildings that were once part of Oceanus more than 1/4 mile from the place the wall and no man's lands were built....they provide some cover, but there's really no way to get across the no man's land without being seen (other than being unable to be seen at all).

It has been snowing off and on since you summoned the blizzard about a week/2 weeks ago. As of the 24 hours before your next operation is set to begin, the sky is cloudy, but it is not snowing. As such, the no man's land is covered in snow (since it hasn't warmed appreciably)--ranging from about 4 inches in some spots, to drifts as tall as 3-4 feet. When you walk across, you'll leave tracks--but if you can step carefully, they'll have to look awfully hard to see them.

Could be totally off with this...

hmmmmm..... 30 miles... so 2.5 hours for all out running human with non-chain mail just to get to wall from trees or 10 hours at a walk, so we would have to set up a mid-point to rest somehow no matter what... or we get closer first somehow...

Once we get to no-man's land -last 1/4 mile I can cast pass without trace on 3 people for 3 hours. Thus those three would not leave marks in the snow or even a scent trail... just wanted to throw that out as an option...

We got it last weekend.

I should send her a thank you note...

Dear Ahrianna,
Thank you so much for the incredibly powerful undead fighting tool. I will be using it against your minions.

Love,
Justice (the person... not the concept)

Is Justice taking/using the last name Preston or is she still using Fairweather?

The other list:

7 rings of Telepathy- 45000gp
70 potions of Cure Light Wounds- 3500gp (at least)
Wand of Wall of Stone- 11,250gp
Wand of Passwall- 11.250gp
Wand of Seeming- 11.250gp
Wand of Cure Moderate Wounds- 4,500

Obviously, we can't afford all of this. But we can go into deeper debt than we're in now...

I tend to imagine that it takes you 5-6 hours at a hustle (2x move) on foot. When you went from Oceanus to Hyrwl for the first time, I said it would take you half a day, and that works out pretty close.

Once we get to no-man's land -last 1/4 mile I can cast pass without trace on 3 people for 3 hours. Thus those three would not leave marks in the snow or even a scent trail... just wanted to throw that out as an option...

Great idea. You'll want to use that, definitely!
