Rhiannon PNP OOC & Discussion

no it is not, but I remembered anyway.
LOL

I suspect we have a little time before the defence can read our playbook.
right now - the QB sneak.
It may turn into either: a blitz or a hail mary.

Zach is alive

I am still alive. I haven't read the threads in a while but just went through the whole thing. Man is the world of Rhiannon a big place.

I am now a Financial Analyst for IBM. I have been training for the past month and while I know some stuff still have no clue what I am doing. Man do I have a headache.

Anyway, thanks for the updates. I enjoyed the light reading and hope all are doing well.
 

Great to hear from you Zach, glad that all is good in your world.

Update from Saturdays game:
After having killed the two individuals that they presume to be Zorin Greyblade and his consort, they begin to search the castle.

Here they defeat 5 pasty elves who attack the party.

In a bedroom, the come across a sword that radiates powerful magic and equally powerful evil. Uncharacteristically, they treat this sword with caution and are careful not to touch it. They pack it away for disposal later. They also find a chest full of gold and platinum and a book entitled Spellbook of Arcade Delsarrion.

Exploring further down into the castle, and carefully avoiding giants, the descend into the dungeons, here they locate a large globe permantly attached to a pedastle, runes on the pedastle lead the party to believe that this is a communication device. They do not activate it. Listening at the next door, they hear magic being spoken.

Gorion leads the way by dimension dooring into the room, and the party finds themselves in combat with a demon with the torso of a female woman and the bottom of a large snake. She has six arms and wields six weapons. The battle is joined by another "dark" elf who appears in the room as if from nowhere. Once the demon is dealt with, He is easily dispatched by a Powerword: Stun spell cast by Callitheus.

Further exploring the castle, the party discovers a chapel to an unknown dark elven deity. They Hallow this area. Shortly after this, they hear loud noises from outside. They run to the top of the tower and look out, to see 16 hillgiants breaking the bridge/causway that leads to the castle. As Gorion lobs fireballs at the giants, Randall notices that a HUGE black dragon circles overhead. When the dragon dives and cast darkness on them, the party teleports home.

They turn the sword over to Fergus, Archbishop of St.Cuthbert for destruction.
The spell book turns out not to be a spellbook after all (or once was) but has been hollowed out and holds an expensive brooch. They party wonders if this was his phylactery...

Next time: Feb 17 at Steves house.

Hmmm,
eliminated: A crow reeking of undead (Delsarrian)
eliminated: A crow that moved into the head of the church position (Ignace)
eliminated: A warrior crow (presumably Zorin Greyblade... or the Lady of Ruin)
remaining...
1. A crow bearing the vestiges of goverment. (unknown)
. . . An agent has been dispatched to Malta to ferret him out.
2. A cowled crow - guessing that he has some connection to the exiled elves. (unknown)
. . . should have used the crystal ball...
3. The large crow - reeks of the power of fallen Eire. (unknown)
. . . Oh, my. I think perhaps a fight with an old dragon is in store for us.

next actions?

-What say we dig into the lost/stolen High Temple warehouse.
-We know where (for the most part)
-We have a powerful backer, for now, who may like the idea of getting some of this back.
-We may need to research what ths 'crow reeking of the lost power of Eire' was, what the power may be, what to do with dragons, and perhaps get a decent weapon that will burn a hole through a dragons heart, from very far away.
 

Per Edmund (should you ask him)

"What say we dig into the lost/stolen High Temple warehouse."
- we have plans underway as we speak along this line. Several preconditions need to be met and we are laboring toward meeting these.

"We have a powerful backer, for now, who may like the idea of getting some of this back."
- Your powerful backer, himself backed by the righteous might of Eli, is positively giddy about getting this stuff back.

"We may need to research what ths 'crow reeking of the lost power of Eire' was, what the power may be, what to do with dragons, and perhaps get a decent weapon that will burn a hole through a dragons heart, from very far away."

- I have set several Lorekeepers of St Macedone to the task. Thus far the Reeking Crow has proven to be a 'Phantom Menace" to coin a phrase.

Miriam: Don't we have several weapons that are designed to "burn a hole" through armor from at least a ways away?

Edmund adds:
"We are preparing a delegation to go to the Elven Queen and inquire as to what they know about the exiled elves that are somehow tied up in all of this. I stress that this will be a diplomatic mission, we bear no ill will toward the overt elven people. I do not believe the dwarves you hang about with would be a good fit for this mission. Nevertheless, If you Randall, desired to accompany the delagation, this could prove helpful to us. Have you an interest?"

Off the record:

(I was surprised you left without fighting the dragon)

Offensively you guys have enough firepower to take pretty much any dragon. The trouble you would have is survivabilty. You would need to somehow survive his breath weapon. I expect taking on even the toughest dragon, at least a couple of you would survive long enough to take him down.
 

1-

While we will need to fight the dragon, standing on a 30 dia tower top was NOT a good place to do it. breath weapn or not, anything he did to us would certainly be to ALL of us.

In fact returning there is High on Randall's list of to do. he wants to use the crystal ball to talk to the enemy. Perhaps a name or location would come up.

2-
"Edmund, since you risked much for Keth (rest his [whispered 'very busy'] soul), do you trust him still? I just do not know his motives, other than himself."

3-
"Edmund, I would love to be on this delegation, as perhaps a few on my kin I remember are still alive. Elbereth, not being from this time, may also wish to go, as she can share memories (that I now have from the communion) with the Elven Queen."

Off the record...
Elves live to be 6-800. Randall's been out of the life of elves for 400+ years. childhood friends or traveling companions may now be leaders, or elders. Perhaps the Queen herself would be known to me? if not personally, at least in name.
 

1- A good point. Breath Weapon = very nasty.

2- Keth is not as well known to me as you might think. He obviously has a reputation as a deceiver and betrayer, which is well earned and admitted. However, His Holiness knows him well and trusts him. So, it strikes me as the right tool for the job.

3- I expect the delagation will leave shortly. Since we wish to keep it small, I have invited you only, though I debated inviting the quiet priest of Salix who accompanies you. As you say, there may be faces that are familiar to you. Do not let that distract you from the task at hand. In order to free this land from terror, we must eliminate the threat posed by the exiled elves.
