Shackled City Adventure Path

OOC: Three days are going by before we meet again. So, while the wizards are taking care of their stuff, and the hero of the town is takeing care of her stuff; I am going to do some fishing, Tiamat style.

[sblock=DM Only] This will be a one day event. I figured since i want to practice some trickery and destruction for Tiamat, I will start in a good pratice place....the water.

I can breate in water without problems and I can swim and Hide. Also, I can destroy flimsy nets if i get caught in. So, I hope this plan will work. I will try to be sneaky when going into the water, staying in the water all day (as to not rouse suspicions), and then get out of the water in a different spot that is safe. (if I know of any).[/sblock]

[sblock=Outline (DM Only)]:
# Destruction: I want to make the fishers semiunproductive at fishing. Not so much as ruin their whole day, but enough to make the days fishing be really bad. This will involve scaring fish, taking fish out of nets, or maybe putting a little leak in a boat.

# Trickery: I want to make lots of the destruction stuff appear to be from a rival fishing group. I will spend a day just watching them while hiding in shadows or something. My hopes, is to make this really worthy of Tiamats wrath so well that some of the fishering groups actually start lethal battles with each other.

# Money: Money is always nice, but I really dont know how to get it from this 'fun and challenging' event. If i think of something, I will tell ya.

# NonPbp: I will choose the aura best at the time. Hopefully we dont need to play this out round by round...cause that would be annoyingly slow for the rest of the group. If you MUST do that, then I guess i will have to figure out something else to do for the rest of the time while they do stuff.

# Time: I will study the fishers for a day, and then sleep for 2 hours (ring of substance), and then sneak into the water at night...which i will stay for the rest of the day. At the end of the night, I will then come out of water and go to my room to pray to tiamat.

# Skills: I have good swim, can breath underwater without problem, and is very good at hiding. I also have spring attack, which makes moving and doing something, then hiding in the shadows easier. I do have an acidic breath which should help on some things.

# Illusion: If I can get a cleric of Tiamat to cast an illusion on me or give me an potion of illusion so that my identity can be harder to recognize. If this makes Tiamat happier...i will do it. [/sblock]

[sblock]I'm kinda following what your trying to do here, but I fail to see why Tiamat (or any gog short of a fishing one) would care about a petty fight between fishers. Yes, trickery and destruction are of importance to Tiamat, but so to are they to many other gods/godesses. Try to think of a way to allow tiamat (or her church) benefit from this and you may have a working idea.[/sblock]
 

OOC: Are we ready? Has Xerxes purchased his scrolls, put them into his book, and everything? If so... we should be ready.

And where did we get the boat from the last time? I totally forgot.
 

Ooc

Purchasing the scrolls will be quite simple as soon as someone talks to Skie so she knows what to get. Most NPC's you purchase stuff from I can just assume you get it and breeze past it. However, Skie has a few special stipulations with her that depending on what you buy, and how you go about it, may influence things later on in the game.

No one specificaly said they were not going here so as far as I care you can all still be together. Slitz is the only one who really expessed a course of action that he may wanna undertake immediatly, and thus not have gone with. However, he came across some trouble with its plan and so he may not even do that.

Long story short...I don't know where anyone is cause no one said who is doing what and I can't continue on until SOMEONE talks in character.
 

Replying to Skie, Laguz says, "My friend Xerxes here, would like to add flight and invisibility to his spellbook. Would happen to have some scrolls of these for sale, or perhaps he could copy from a spellbook? Your help would be much appreciated." laguz smiles and waits for a response.

OOC: Actually Xerxes did post a reply, it was acouple of lines back.
 


OOC: Actually, as I said before, Aldreneth is working on his house and he won't hire anyone cause he can do most of the work with Stone Shape and it's cheaper that way too.
 

SKie's smile never fades as Laguz explains what they are looking for. Then in a calm, gentle tone, she says "Unfortunatly I just sold my last spellbook yesterday. It had the spell of invisibility but was missing fly anyway. However, I do have scrolls currently on hand of both those spells. I have only 2 scrolls of invisibility as its not a very commonly sought scroll. Its price is 150 gold. Fly is alot more common and of that one I am down to only 3 scrolls, each going for 375 gold. How many of each would you like, and did you have any other questions?"

OOC: Xerxes responce looked aimed toward Laguz since he was looking to the sorc. Aldreneth; I knew you were planning to work on your house, but I didn't know if youd take the time to go with them for now and work on it later as they copied.

Lastly, just want to point out that Skie is not a pushy sales person or one to rush her customers along. I realize she may sound like it from the above line but it is merely my efforts at preventing this from taking longer than it needs to.
 


Skie collects the money from Xerxes before going to the back room. Not more than 30 seconds later she returns with two rolled up parchments in her hands. Handing them to Xerxes she says "Thank you very much sir. Have a good night."

OOC:
The next 2 days pass without incident. Xerxes, you need to make 2 spellcraft checks to scribe the spells in your book (one per scroll).

Just to clarify the plan:
Your going to take a boat downstream until your about 2 miles from the headless demon statue. From there you will use fly and invisibility to get to Vaprak's Voice.

Assuming that is correct, then do you go under the cover of night, or during the day when everyone can see eachother?
