OOC Discussion for Kingdom of Ashes (Leaving Queens, Breaking Swords, & Snake Chicks)

[Laurel]

Using L'Aurel as Sulora is pretty much out of the question now, anyway. They've been locked up for 2 weeks, mislead by her, and she is obviously friends with the pepole they thought were NOT friends...

So, shouldn't really pose an issue, I don't think. If we are going to convert them, they need to know the truth.

and they should get the truth, no one is asking to lie to them.... but we don't have to tell them every little detail. Just keeping it short and simple at the begining then press onward with the rest.

Just like are we going to tell them we gave one of the swords to the bluestar.... I hope not- or at least not till we have them more in our corner.

Trying to plan for things in advance so on the spot they are not asking questions and we just blurt out something. All in the name of Preperation.

The other part was:

Should she even try to hide at first.... well, stand in a dark corner and try to go unnoticed not sit int he rafters or anything too odd. Or just have L'aurel introduce herself and give brief, "I am not who you think I am, I am L'aurel Woodshadow and I am sorry to have of tricked you. For your saftey it was necessary though. But here's a good friend to say more, Justice-" kind of thing...... ?...... get it out of the way... lead them to re-focus and move on..... ?

RE: L'Aurel and the Talon Mages...

I would say, in the beginning, we offer a very simple introduction of everyone... and, Justice says "This is L'Aurel Woodshadow" and go on from there-- telling them why we had to trick them the way we did... and, if they ask, we tell them... and we tell them as little as possible-- just enough to keep them satisfied...

What do you think?

Fine as along as at some point before 20th level L'Aurel can actualy introduce herself

Already stated agreement with the whole answer only the questions they have asked and nothing more or fudge it kind of thing. But the big things is just if they start asking to make it clear what the bigger picture is and what should be truely important in the grand scheme.

The Almighty DM has declared that, for every 250gp extra we spend on the candle, the Will Save DC will increase by 1.

Justice will pay for the candle (but will accept donations)-- hoping to get a Will Save DC 20 or 25 to have it be more persuasive.

Original DC 13-- So to get the DC to 25 it would only be 3,000 gp and considering that the pot divisions were on the extremely large side we should all be able to kick in the 500 gp

not sure how much the candle itself is, but I think dividing that should be okay to everyone (We have like hundreds of GP's!) - changed computers and lost all my links so have to find the geocities srd again

Update: The candle itself is 2,500 gp, so total thats only 5,500 gp. Split six ways if divided equally (and for the general cause I think we can) then what- 916.67 gp's per PC.... rounded up one cent.

(J/K work related that I got in so early, but thought it could work as a push)

UPDATE: YEAH!!!!!! Happy Kitty!!!! And once you read it, happy you shall be too!!!!!

As Kat has noted above, I posted a short(ish) update to the story hour this morning.

I posted about 3.5 of the 10-11 pages I have completed, in the interest of providing more timely (if somewhat shorter) updates.
