Ok cool

I think we need to magically jump up to level 4 or 5. You seem to like throwing out enemies that can overwhelm or 1 shot kill us.

Ok sure. I'll need to time skip you guys where you are older then to adults. Y'all will just have to let me know how you guys would like to do that. Also sorry about that.

Would you guys like to have like 5 years pass where everyone is adults then and go to level 5? Let me know.

So would you guys like to end the prologue adventure and we do a 5 year time skip with everyone as adults at level 5 to start the next part of the game? If so you will need to tell me what you have done in the 5 years to train and level up to get to level 5. As well as what subclass you decided on at level 3 and more. Also would you all stay at Grandmother Sophie's house or would you leave her and would you all stick together?

If you guys want to jump 5 years, I’m okay with that. I think we could level up our character sheets and let Amber know what choices we make there.

But as far as deciding what we did during the five years goes, I would welcome Amber filling in the story based on the background we’ve developed together so far. She can explain how and why we stayed with Grandma Sophie, or went out into the world together, or went our separate ways. And if the latter, she can decide what brings us together again after 5 years and start us right in the plot that brings us together with a purpose.

That’s my opinion, but I am willing to do it anyway.

Yeah cuz the reason why Ollie and Woody originally came to Grandmother Sophie's cottage was to help her fight off the fears in her cellar which she was going to pay them for and Tink came to help out too. Flora just has been with Grandmother Sophie to help her out and she is learning how to do magic even though she has a warlock Patron now and will one day be the Guardian of the cottage and protector of the gateway between the feywild, spirit realm and the Mortal plane too.

Ollie and Woody only had 6 months at Grandmother Sophie's cottage to help her out anyway. Like Ollie is the son of the King of Thieves so he has responsibilities at home to still do with the thieves guild and same with Woody before they decide what life has on the horizon for them next.

But what would Tink do after that Summer ends though? Would he part ways with everyone and try to go after the Goblin king? Just curious.

Like if the characters split up, an event could happen where they one day reunite with each other. It's up to yall what you want to do though. It's your story. I'm just helping you create it too.

if you want to try an experiment if I can run this through chtgpt AI and see if it can create us a story. All I would need is for everyon to just give me a brief barebones run down of what you want your char has been doing for the last 5 years and i can have the AI tie it all together. See what happenes

Maybe for instance
year 1 .....
year 2 .....
etc...

Sure. We can see what ChatGPT comes up with. Who knows what it will come up with. But I guess my reasoning for saying Amber could fill in the time is so that she can weave everyone’s story together into some cohesive plot line that she has in mind that involves what will being going on with our story going ahead. I mean there’s no real point meandering around until level 20.

Thank you for considering my concerns. Okay. I don't really want to be leveled up. I genuinely care about my character's well-being, and facing six pirates and a leader with life drain poses significant challenges. It's likely that at least one of our characters would die if not experiencing a TPK.

With utmost respect, I suggest a more balanced encounter with pirates of bandit or thug level. My previous remark, though it was meant as sarcasm, was misunderstood in part due to the limitations of text communication.

Regarding our plans, instead of leveling up, I propose waiting for the pirates to leave, acquiring better weapons in town, and then proceeding with the mission we were hired for. I'm thoroughly enjoying this campaign, as it offers a unique and captivating concept. However, I believe that adjusting the monsters to match our current levels would enhance our overall chance for success and enjoyment.

I am going to have Captain Kidd and the Pirates leave in a day and go somewhere else. They had been in the coastal town for a week and they are about to leave. The crew was low level but Captain Kidd is a high level foe with a magical life drain ability.

But if you guys still want to do a 5 year time skip, let me know.

I’m fine with staying at this level and finishing the mission we have from Grandma Sophie. I was just saying that if we did skip ahead five years I would be okay with you as the DM telling us what happened during that time. But again, we do have a current vendetta against that cauldron and a job to clear the cellar that I happy to fulfill.

I'd rather not, but I'll go with the group.

Would you all want to finish the current mission with Grandmother Sophie then we do the 5 year time skip getting you guys to level 5? I can definitely do that if you want me to. After this mission, it'll be the end of the Children's adventure ending the prologue and the game will officially begin with everyone as adults.

I'd prefer to finish the mission

Me too

Alright, we will finish the mission then.

Flora, you only hear the sound of a woodpecker pecking against a tree which makes a loud thumping sound followed by a beaver slamming its tail at a tree it cut down and landed in the lake.
