Whirtlestaff's Wizards' Academy Revisited, IC01

Here is a summary of the rolls so far:

2. The Wyrm of Quail Valley
Knowledge(Arcana) = 26 [Xavier]
Knowledge(Nature) = 23 [Tylara]
Knowledge(Dungeoneering) = 21 [Kerlan]

3. Giants in the Forest of Nin
Knowledge(Nature) = 28 [Xavier]
Knowledge(Dungeoneering) = 20 [Xavier]

7. Monsters turning men to stone
Knowledge(Nature) = 24 [Kerlan]
Knowledge(Dungeoneering) = 20 [Kerlan]

8. Underdark Passages
Knowledge(Dungeoneering) = 25 [Kerlan, Tylara, Capizzio, Xavier]

Those are the highest rolls so far. Mowgli is the only one missing. Seems like just about everyone knows about the Underdark.

Xavier and Kerlan are tied in 1st place with 4 rolls each, Tylara is second with two rolls, and Capizzio is third with one roll. ;) :p

For Kerlan:
I find it very interesting that you are able to determine who made successful rolls and who didn't, particularly since I never said how high you needed to roll. :p

For Everyone:
When everyone has rolled, I'll put together some kind of post for you. Sorry for suspending the action, we're still in the middle of the night after the battle. After we deal with the knowledge rolls, we'll advance time and continue the journey to Twain. :)
 

Manny

Larin Karr (KS History(?)): 1d20+6=13
Wyrm of Quail Valley (KS: Arcana): 1d20+8=19
Giants in the Forrest (KS: Nature): 1d20+6=26
Orcs in the Valey (KS: ?):1d20+6=22
Witch/Crus (KS: History): 1d20+6=17
Other Giants (KS: Nature): 1d20+6=23
Other Frightful Monsters (KS: Nature) 1d20+6=19
Underdark (KS: Dungeoneering): 1d20+6=11 (Manny don't know nuthin' 'bout no Underdark!)


OOC:

In some cases I wasn't sure which skill to apply, but Manny has all of them at +6 (except Arcana, which is +8) so I just took my best guess and applied the +6 modifier.

Changing Karmic Aura spell for Mage Armor. Change reflected on Character Sheet.

OOC: I didn't say they were successful, just that they were the best rolls we had. The Underdark comment was just because we had 4 people all roll a 25. I figure at least some of them were high enough, I just don't know which ones.
 

Knowledge Check results from visitng with the crew after the battle:

Regarding Larentiss the Dragon, Max, Kerlan, and Xavier are quick to point out that neither Blue nor Green Dragons breathe fire. Xavier and Tylara know that the most likely dragon to be found in a forest is a Green Dragon. And, Capizzio, Xavier, and Tylara say that the stories of the Dragon Larentiss luring women into the forest would seem to indicate that Larentiss has sorcerous powers of enchantment. Xavier and Manny know that "green, rubbery giant" is a description of a Troll, while Xavier and Kerlan know that "two-headed giant" is a description of an Ettin. Xavier, in particular, is quite emphatic that these two varieties are quite distinct and do not interbreed. Kerlan, Tylara, and Manny know that the bird-like creature described is a Cockatrice, while Kerlan knows that the metallic, bull-like creature is a Gorgon. Again, these are quite separate and distinct creatures, so, as with the varying giants described, either the tales are very confused, or there is a very dangerous and broad assortment of monsters on the loose in Quail Valley! Despite the derision of certain of the crew, Capizzio, Kerlan, Xavier, and Tylara know that the tales of a so-called "Underdark," a very wide-ranging network of tunnels and caverns beneath the surface, are well-founded, and they have even spoken to some professors at Whirtlestaffs who have ventured therein and returned to tell the tale. In addition, Manny once overheard two professors (he can't recall which ones, as this was long ago) discussing someone whom they referred to as Larin Karr. Manny reports that they did not seem to be at all pleased with the fellow, and spoke of him as being an enemy more than anything else. Manny did pick up on the fact that this Larin Karr was a Drow Elf Wizard.

Morning: Wednesday, May 30, 2112 Y.M.

The remainder of the night passes quietly and peacefully. All good little wizards awaken bright and early, very refreshed and all set to continue on your journey. (However, Capizzio has to be struck about the head and shoulders with a piece of firewood! j/k :D ) The crew prepares a hearty breakfast, and then strikes camp, loads the gear back onto the vessel, and you are all set to continue the journey to Twain.

The Mate says, "All aboaaaard!"

Tylara

In light of the monstrous creatures said to be in the valley Tylara vows to be on her guard. She boards the vessel with the others and secures a comfortable spot for the next leg of the voyage. She can't help wishing she had the library at her disposal to look up more information.
 

" My, these crew will believe any tales... it's a good thing we were here to set the record straight" Xavier says to the others.
 

"I find these rumors disconcerting. The descriptions of many of these creatures are too accurate to be coincidence. Either there are a lot of dangerous creatures in this area or someone wants people to think there are. Either way, we will have to keep an eye out for trouble."
 

Cappizzio seems thought ful at the many varied rumers and is not sure of waht to make of them in the entirety. He definitely is troubled at the information.

]ooc[ did manny keep all of the coin or distribute it evenly , or ....?]/ooc[
