Industrygothica's "Those Left Behind" [OOC]

Hooray! And thanks much. It's been a fun character / voice to try to develop. :)
On the subject of "where to now?" Shai's priorities are as follows:
1) Find the Inn (which I'm pretty sure we never named) that we stayed at when Talashia, Uulark, and Caerwyn joined. Talashia's point that Tanith may have left the nuts in safe-keeping could be valid. If she left them--or word of them--I'd think that would be the first logical place that she'd do so.
) Try to track down Vardi, and probably that white-plumed hat fellow. The journal tells us Duran (and by implication Loddie) were in the sewers with the kobolds, but clearly they weren't with the kobolds when we encountered them (or, if they were, not in any form we'd be able to identify). White-plume might know / be persuaded to share what he knows about Duran's underground operation, which may give us a direction. And if Shai shows up and explicitly introduces himself as being from the party who went for the nuts, Vardi may be more inclined to open up, as well. If number 1 above panned out, either of them might be even more amenable to helping us.
3) The sewers, particularly the spot where we hit the larger number of kobolds, to look for clues on where Duran or Loddie may have gone.
4) The icky dead body trophy room. It's not obviously connected to Loddie or Duran, but as Shayuri mentions, Shai's preoccupation with the quest he got side-tracked from isn't necessarily going to be top billing for everyone else (and as I mentioned, he tends to bow to the majority and / or stronger personalities). Besides, the journal seems to have connected the alchemist's discovery with "the barkeep," which at least partially suggests that Loddie may have been somehow connected not just with Duran, but with the alchemist.

Shai's plan sounds good to Uulark. (He don't know nothin' 'bout no nuts or many of the things mentioned here, but that doesn't really bother him) :D
 

I'll post my action later tonight. I'm headed out to go grocery shopping soon.

Thinking of sending Midnight to fight chaos beasts now instead of gnolls?

Speaking of which, anyone seen a 4e chaos beast running around anywhere? Might be interesting...

But Reveille, I think you might've gone to the wrong thread. ;)
 



I hadn't really planned on replacing Rokelsh, but I suppose if you guys want another, I'm not totally opposed to it.
Despite the "sad face" that went with it, my comment was intended in jest. I just thought it was kinda funny that he got the wrong thread. But, I could go either way on the issue, too.

THIS IS GENUINE: :D

And i thought 3.5 chaos beasts were bad enough? ungh.

as for possible renameing, how about tales from the dark side? (JK!)

At the risk of starting a conversation better suited somewhere else...

I would think that a 4e chaos beast wouldn't be quite as bad as the 3.5 version. I can't think (right off hand) of any creature with a save-or-die feature in 4e, which is basically what the transformation is.

Seems like if you treat it like a disease and give it a progression scale, that would at least give someone a fighting chance to get out of it.

Might have to try to stat one up and see what I can come up with.

Looks like I'm a little late to the conversation. I think the switch to NG from CN is valid. Especially in light of the unpleasant encounters with chaos beasts.

As for where to go next, Rogash would be up for bracing the 'Man in the white plumed hat' or going back down into the sewers. He isn't eager to go back to the 'trophy' room. He's very uneasy about the actions he took without really intending to.
