Paths of Legend - Tragedy at Silvergard

[Arkhandus]

[sblock=ooc]Alaric's expenses/crafts: A scroll of Magic Missile, 1st-level caster, market value 25 gp, cost to create is 12 gp and 5 sp, plus 1 XP. Altogether, with the alchemical items, it costs Alaric 172 gp and 5 sp and 1 XP, ouch. But he needs to be sure he'll be prepared for the next few times he has to fight a bunch of undead foes who can't be taken down with Color Sprays.[/sblock]

 

[Helfdan]

Valen Sablewood

Valen stands next to Johen, and nods to the men-at-arms. "Indeed, Captain. Ghoulish beasts, they were, carriers of a disease that almost took my life." He keeps his deep voice pitched low, so that passers-by cannot hear.

 

[Yttermayn]

Aohdan looked startled for a moment. "Oh! Uhm, hello..." he stammered. Inwardly his mind was awhir, trying desperately to find that spark of something else that seemed to be more aware of everything that went on around him. Physically, he stood stock-still, his massive limbs and torsoes rigid, and his eyes rolled back in his head. Then, the old wound on the side of his head began to throb...

OOC: Well, I know what's going on with one of this week's missing persons. For the others, ethandrew, Jemal, and Voda Vosa, I need to know what the scoop is. ethandrew and Jemal in particular, we've been missing you for a while now. We'll give you one more week, then push forward into the mountains without you.

The Scouting Party

Captain Pirren nods as Johen and Valen speak. After Valen finishes he stands up straighter and addresses them formally, "Your group has done this duchy a great service in illuminating and combatting this threat to Lord Ezra's citizens and lands. I will be informing the Lord's Seneschal directly to determine our next course of action. In the meantime, I am authorized to bestow the honorary rank of Lieutenant in the Lord's Guard upon the commander or leader of your group."

The dagger, wrapped in cloth in Johen's pack, again becomes prominent in Johen's thoughts. Johen's mind's eye sees the dagger plunging into his mentor's flesh, the red gem in the hilt practically glowing.

The Centaur and the Construct

The voice that Aohdan had heard in the past is curiosly silent as the nimblewright approaches. An image of a bird made of folded paper flits across his vision for a moment, the bird flying toward a strang dagger shaped black tower with a red door at its base. The vision passes as Corath nears.

Splitting the Treasure

OOC: The Adventurer's Guild contact here in Vedlund can issue individual Guild promissary notes to everyone in the group, if desired. If you'd rather have an even amount (200 gp each) you could put a tenth share into a "party fund" that can be banked for the group by the Guild to cover healing expenses, resurrections and the like. Alaric has already spent a good portion of his. I need to know if anyone else is going to buy anything.

 

[Yttermayn]

OOC: Since I'm near the castellan anyways and have a little cash, I'd like to get a potion of cure light or two. Preferable in the form of a gumdrop or something that is a little more sturdy than a glass vial.

 

[Amaury]

rank of lieutnant?? err.. Johen thinks very surprised. He turns to the rest of the group: "Would anyone.. hum maybe William be, interested in that rank?" he asks. And to the soldier: "Thank you very much officer, but we know little of this function. What would its duties or rewards be?"

But as the Captain answers, the dagger fills his thoughts again. strange.. why do I keep thinking about it recently? he thinks frowning a bit. He has a glance at the weaponry of the soldiers wondering if there would be any ressemblance to the dagger.

OOC: Going to skip this week's update to see if everyone is still interested in playing. If you are, please post a "OOC: Here!" message or something similar. If we don't get at least four responses, then we shall have to let the game die.

 

[Yttermayn]

OOC: Here!

 

[Voda Vosa]

OOC: I'm here of course.

 

[Amaury]

ooc: here..
in my experience, you will always lose players in a game on the net. but you can replace them.
however, as i pointed out, there needs to be a certain level of activity to keep the players interested. i think that once a week update is what is causing disaffection from players.. :\
