Q'Barra: Facing Truth Chapter 2

Upon seeing the children raucously playing in the schoolyard, Sepoto grins from ear to ear. With one long-fingered hand he begins to rifle through the full fruit-pouch, producing a veritable cornucopia of kiwis, drethka-fruit, miniature-oranges and mangos.

Waiting for the children to notice him, he finally bellows a heart-felt greeting.

"Hullo-hollo, children! Sepoto is here, and I have brought, FRUIT!

(OOC - Oops! Sorry, you're right...I should have been specific. :) Treb is seeking out known locations of poison dusk lizardfolk near the town. As for the Children, he's looking for what sorts of place they might deem holy. Basically...he suspects they may have to check that out soon, and wishes to get some intel on what the situation might be. :))
 

[sblock]Okay, two things:

1. How much gil should I have around now? I haven't been keeping track for quite awhile(I think since the beginning)

2. Alright, so I'll make two Craft: Poisonmaking checks. I think it requires 1 check per week for both poisons.[/sblock]
 

[sblock=BRP2] the group has found a total of 333 gold so far. So, Charles' share would be 56 (I rounded up) This does not count the trade-in value of the gear that they found, which Charles could also count towards the cost of crafting the poisons, since he will be using the school's supplies to make them.[/sblock]
 

Kaelan

Kaelan stands up straight, and puffs out his chest, trying to conceal his hurt pride. "I knew what I was doing, but they got in some lucky blows on me. I charged into battle like a true Valenar warrior, while my comrades hung back. I struck down one of their number is a single blow, and then retreated back to the rest of my comrades."
As for why he would appear to you, I think that you know the answer to that. You have chosen your brother as your ideal man. There is a battle inside you; a battle between the person you are, and the person you wish to be."

"Maybe you are right," he says with a sigh. "I am going to take a walk and try to figure that out."
 

Argent shakes his head slowly. "A true Valenar warrior acts with honor and bravery, but not without thinking his actions through. That is the lesson you still must learn; how to see all sides of your actions.

I cannot tell you why your brother appears to you nor how the flow of battle should have been. All I can do is try to teach you what I think you should learn.

Walk if you need to walk. Fight if you need to fight. But never forget your path."


Trebuchet pours over the few texts he can find on the Children of Winter, and he becomes perplexed. He was searching for reasons that they may find locations holy, but from his reading he believes that they have no holy sites.

He moves on to researching the locations of the poison dusk lizardfolk. He finds a map which shows the area he is looking for, it shows the location of the proposed Havenwood settlement. To the north of the settlements lies a lizardfolk village. And to the Northwest there is another lizardfolk village. The second village is more than 20 miles from Havenwood, however.

As Catherine and Sepoto approach the children, they call out joyfully. When Sepoto announces that he has fruit, they rush towards him, anxious for their share.

Sentinel was standing watch over the children, and he looked to Catherine. "You have returned. Were you successful?"
 

Charles begins his work, which he will stop and start throughout the week.

Oi, I lack Complete Scoundrel, I swore I had it(or maybe that was just Complete Adventurer lol)... I'm going to try and pick it up soon, but until then could you handle it after I make my rolls?

1/6 * price gil

Using the rules in Complete Adventurer:
-If successful, Check result * DC = amount of gil worth of Poison I make in a week. If this amount exceeds the Market Price, I make a dose. I make additional doses for each time I surpass the Market Price.
-If I fail by 4 or less, no progress
-If I fail by 5 or more, lose half materials.

Greenblood Oil (1d20+9=24)

Salvo Poison (1d20+9=13)

Sentinel said:
"You have returned. Were you successful?"

Catherine practically beams with excitement. "We were! With no loss of life on our side either, thanks to me. Kaelan certainly is excitable, isn't he? Those we fought were truly despicable though. Starving animals, threatening innocents, and then trying to kill us. I barely managed to save Kaelan. Twice no less! No big surprises here, I hope?"

Catheine watches with a smile as Sepoto rushes out to the children with his gift of fruit. "They certainly do love him, don't they? He just plays rough sometimes. Ah, well. He's a good sort. All of them are. I don't think I was the...oh, never mind."

[sblock]No problem, I can handle it from there. The basics of Salvo Poison: Injury DC 15, creation DC 12, cost 100 gp, deals 1d4 random ability damage as its primary and secondary effect. When used, I will roll for the random ability it damages.

The rules for creating poisons from Complete Adventurer are fine.[/sblock]
 

[sblock=BRP2]During the full week that he is working, Charles will be able to create 3 doses of Greenblood Oil, and 1 dose of Salvo poison.[/sblock]
Sentinel nods to Catherine. "It is good that everyone survived. I am confused about why you seem to be amused by Kaelan's misfortune. Do you dislike him? You have always been so hard on others, Catherine. It always left you alone, and I cannot keep you company now. I have other little ones to look after."

Sentinel looks to the children and Sepoto. "Many people seem to enjoy Sepoto's company. He is always kind. He always treats everyone as a friend. He is a good friend. I have always seen him as a good person to people."
