The Four Lands - The Great North

[Rhun]

The choices are:

1 feat of your choice (no prerequists needed but run the choice by me)
+2 to any ability score
+15 to your base hit points.

[sblock=For J. Alexander]
Thanks for the holiday gift! Vadric will take the +2 ability score bonus, though I have to determine which ability score would be best.

Also, I noticed that Bertrand, Finnian, Jaroth and Anniston are all Level 12; Did I miss a level update, because I still have Vadric as 11!!! Can I go ahead and update him to 12?

Jaroth

Jaroth glances in the direction of the screams into the darkness of the night, a worried expression on his face.

"If it is your wish that we sit here and discuss these matters, so be it. The rest of my friends, however, are anxious to meet you, one of which is a powerful Priest of the Light. He would be most disappointed if he were not present for our discussion. Would you mind the short journey to the top of the hillock, Lady Vera?"

[sblock=For DM] Using our secret code language, I express to Lady Vera the importance of not isolating the Servant of the Light from these discussions. I also use the code to ask, what is the nature of our immediate danger? [/sblock]

[sblock=For J. Alexander]
Vadric has been leveled.

Left alone at one of the strong points on the hill, Vadric watches what he can of the battle below. He notes Vorian going after his horse, and shrugs to himself. Descending into a chaotic melee in the darkness was a bit rash, the knight thought to himself. The tribesmen might mistake the man as an enemy.

Vadric committed himself to the defense of the hill. With everyone else engaged in other tasks, he took it up on himself to defend the wall and rally the men should the hill be assaulted.

Vorian reconsiders

OOC: I thought Bertrand meant going down to see battle, not visitors So, I'll just change Vorians movement somewhat.

Vorian goes down shortly giving instructions to Delilah to guard this approach as he did before with Arrwuh. From horse-bags (sorry, I don't know if there is better term) he takes ink and paper. He would like to take blankets to sit the guests properly, but they are all distributed among survivors along with food supplies. Then he rejoins Rendee and Anniston at the hillocks top, returning to observing battle, sparing glance or two to Jaroth and his team.

OOC2: Question: If I take +2 to CON do I get hit points retroactively for all levels?

 

[Rath Lorien]

Anniston bows to the group, keeping a close eye on all movements and words. He will bow graciously with the unconscious but practiced form used to greet important emissaries.

Sense Motive vs. Druids (1d20+16=23)

He can see that the woman is the ranking member of the group, so he will address her politely and when it is appropriate to do so. "Madame, you are welcome here. Whatever comfort we have at our command is at your disposal."

He senses that Jaroth is communicating beyond his words; he would expect it to be so. He does not sense any hostility so he remains relaxed and diplomatic.

Anniston will continue to flank Jaroth, but makes it clear with his stance that he is not a bodyguard. He will remain here with the group or follow back up the hill depending on the wishes of the visitors.

[sblock=OOC]Thanks for the Christmas present! If I take the +2 attribute I may wish to distribute the points between two attributes. Let me know if you prefer me not to do this.[/sblock]

 

[Dracomeander]

Finnian inclines his head and bows with a flourish when Jaroth introduces him then stands unflinching as her companions move to guard positions.

"Your presence is most welcome Lady. There are grave matters evolving, and your counsel will be a great blessing in helping to sort them out. Our accommodations are rather limited at this time, but, once the small matter over the hill is resolved, we will be able to talk in more comfort in a private place."

Finnian watches the Lady Druid and her companions through his speech, trying to judge whether she believes she is coming to aid allies or try to take command.

[sblock=OOC]
Thank you for the holiday gift. Hope the holidays treated you well.
Finnian will take the +2 to Charisma. Is it to be applied immediately?

Sense Motive on Vera (1d20+13=27)

Bertrand

Bertrand waits to see what the lady will do with the wood.

 

[J. Alexander]

The HIllock

Reaching out and touching tree of the smaller pieces of wood the lady says a few brief words softly. "Please put two of these into the main fire and one in any you wish" Then Addressing Jaroth she says "Yes the danger is ever present but I think we will be safe for the moment and it is best that all concerned be in on the discussion." Smiling at Anniston she says "Comfort comes and goes at my age, no need to overextend yourself on our behalf" The in turn sddressing Finnian she says "You welcome is appreciated and it is only right that we await till all our assembled and those issues playing out beyond our location are resolved."

Meanwhile on the rim, Vadric and Vorian maintain their vigil.

For Jaroth
[sblock]The Lady replies in such a way as to convey to you that while the danger is extreme there is time to discuss the matter before more Drakkar show up.[/sblock]

For Neurotic
[sblock]Yes as i understand the rules it is retroactive[/sblock]

For Anniston
[sblock]You sense that the lady is deeply concerned about something but that she is patient and willing to discuss the matter to the extent she can. Actually I would prefer that the be applied toward one Attribute...[/sblock]

For Finnians
[sblock]Finnian does not think she is here to take command but rather to discuss an importan issue and find a resolution. If necessary though Finnian has not doubt that she will take command. Yes it can be applied immediatley[/sblock]

Jaroth

Jaroth nods and smiles at Lady Vera.

"I will summon my companions."

[ooc: Jaroth casts a message spell, stating to Vadric: My Order wishes to discuss the book here. We are safe. Please join us. Bring the others.]
