IR Aftermath (Those Dead PCs are back in action! )

[Festy_Dog]

Sanctus willingly accepts anything given to him, which he then hurriedly turns into diamonds so that he can True Resurrection everyone who isn't already there during that day. He'll throw a Miracle into the mix to get Traal's to work.

 

[Kalanyr]

Okay, Sanctus takes Valliances gems and using the true ressurections and a miracle, Sanctus returns to life everyone except Xarindel, who does not respond.

 

[Gurdjieff]

[OoC: Almost ready with the equipment list. I have vacation now, so it'll probably be posted tomorrow as I still need to do the lvl up. And yes this is some kind of bump as well.]

 

[Festy_Dog]

Sanctus gains a look of deep concern. Taking a seat in the tavern and sitting to think for a while. The reason for Xarindel not returning was simple, it was highly likely he was raised as the the undead, but how could Sanctus go about maybe reversing the process, or simply an easy way to destroy the undead so that he may resurrect Xarindel. He racked his brain to find explanations for what had happened, was happening and what was likely to happen.

[Kalanyr]

Sanctus remembers that also those who are still alive don't respond to the call of a true ressurection.

And in order to work out a good way to destroy undead he'd need to identify the type, but sunlight, fire and holy water seem to work on most undead.

[OoC: Updated Valiance&Graf]

"So... what to do now?"

 

[Janos Audron]

[oh, the headache! I gotta redo my equipment after the haste nerfing and the gotta kill some items because I simply have no XP left (thanks for using that lower XP table ... but not much) and then I gotta level. *sigh*.]

 

[Kalanyr]

Given a lack of significant events, I will move time forward to 5 pm in the afternoon.

Janos, the noble you have been waiting for, Nork Skullcrasher arrives and sits at a table on the oppossite side of the room, the Bugbear wizard seems rather self absorbed at the moment though, as if something ways heavily on his mind.

 

[Festy_Dog]

Sanctus sits and ponders what to do with the party in its current state. He sees what his comrades are thinking at the moment to give him some inspiration.

 

[Janos Audron]

[14:19] <Janos> "Goodevening Milord."
[14:21] <Kalanyr> Nork looks up from his drink
[14:22] <Kalanyr> "Greetings, what can I do for you? "
[14:22] <Janos> "I am looking for a certain tome and I have heard that you might be able to help me acquire it."
[14:23] <Kalanyr> "You seek me for a tome ? There is a huge library at the academy "
[14:24] <Janos> "Well, that I come to you for a tome would suggest that it is not easily available, wouldn't it?"
[14:25] <Kalanyr> "Indeed, and since your reply is soconfident I assume you've already talked to the academy staff"
[14:26] <Kalanyr> "What can I possibly possess that none of them have or that you cannot fashion yourself, Janos ?"
[14:28] <Janos> "Compared to those at the academy, I am but an apprentice, so I cannot fashion it myself. And that is why I come to you for help."
[14:29] <Kalanyr> " What then is it that you desire ? It sounds like it will be something that requires significant effort from me if you cannot fashion it yourself "
[14:30] <Janos> "I assume you are familiar with the effects of a tome of learning?"
[14:31] <Kalanyr> "Indeed. "
[14:32] <Kalanyr> " Tomes that teach you things you would otherwise need more experience to learn ? Shortcuts to power. Yes I do."
[14:33] <Janos> "I am looking for a tome with the same effects, but which teaches me things that only those with a greater knowledge can omprehend."
[14:34] <Kalanyr> "Ah, I see now, greater knowledge within normal confines or stretching beyond them ? "
[14:35] <Janos> "stretching beyond them."
[14:36] <Kalanyr> "I do not possess that much knowledge in such a field and if you seek what I can make the cost to me will be great. "
[14:39] <Janos> "Yes, I am fully aware of that. But does that mean you are unwilling to take this comission?"
[14:40] <Kalanyr> "I am disinclined to take such costs for mere money, which I have more of than I need. But perhaps you have another offer ? "
[14:51] <Janos> "Maybe I can interest you in the blood of an ancient Blue Dragon?"
[14:56] <Kalanyr> "To be relevant for what you wish to make the blood must come from a dragon of almost incalculable age, ancient beyond a great wyrm, the dragon would need to be able to cast spells of the magnitude you seek to acquire "
[15:02] <Janos> "If I find you the blood of a Dragon so powerful it can cast beyond what I can, will you craft the tome for me?"
[15:02] <Kalanyr> "Yes, such would be sufficient to negate entirely the cost to myself, but beware not all dragons cast arcane spells, only arcane spells will benefit you in this creation"
[15:05] <Janos> "Very well, I will return once I have the blood."
[15:06] <Kalanyr> "Excellent, hmm, before you leave, what spells of the highest circles do you have ?"
[15:06] <Kalanyr> "Perhaps we could benefit from some exchange "
[15:07] <Janos> "I have researched Dominate Monster, Freedom, Mordenkainens Disjunction, Meteor Swarm, Energy Drain, Time Stop, Wish, Simbul's Spell Trigger, Duplicate and Elminster's Effulgent Epuration. What kind of exchange do you propose?"
