OOC: City of the Spider Queen [Full]

[Rayex]

you said i got 5 elf bane arrows, did i also manage to purchase 40 regular arrows and an additional quiver?

Yeah. It was a weapons shop, ofcourse they had it. Just forgot to mention it, cause I didnt see the edition until after i did the post
You've got the arrows and the quiver on the sheet though.

Ok, I'm back.

In the interest of avoiding backtracking and unnecessary hold-ups, I'm assuming, someone brought a horse for Merion. Of course this can be changed, if desired.

About my posting habits ... I'll probably post coming back from school (4-6 pm GMT) and again in the evening between 8 and 12 depending on individual circumstances. At the moment I have enough time to spare for several posts per day, but this may change. I hope, it won't.

About individual exchanges ... pms are a community supporter only feature on this board, so the obvious way is out. I'd say, resolve it per email, icq, msn, irc or whatever is at hand, when the issue comes up.

Yeah, you got the horse. Just a clarification, there are no villages around the crypts, only a few farms, homesteads etc.

how well do i know the area near the crypts (knowlege: geography +11)?

 

[Dakkareth]

I was thinking about Sunstone (on the map), which looks like a village or something. All that matters is to see a few locals and/or assess the damage that the raiders have done.

Sunstone = Ruins of an old castle.

So here's what you gonna do: Contact some of the locals in the arrea around the crypts, and then look at some of the raided farms etc? This will take a few hours, including the time it takes to travel the few miles.

You know that few live close to the crypts. the few farms in close proximity are probably the ones raided. The arrea in itself consist mostly of hills, most of wich you can find ruins and pieces of old farms, walls, etc. Probably remnants from old. You've never been to the crypts yourself, but you've been in the area.

Well, Merion's list of priorities goes something like:

1. Find survivors and question them or find unburied corpses (preferrably drow) and question them.

2. Take a look at one of the raided farms (probably would include [1]).

3. Ask some local about the area, about the crypts, etc.


The third point is not that important, but if 1. and 2. are manageable before dark, that's, what Merion will advocate. Assuming normal circumstances the party could reach the crypts in about one and a half hours, so making a few deviations should be no problem.

Thus far Merion's take on the situation.
