General Chat

A yarn spun by Pickles is always welcome. I would go with option 2. They fought us off having wolves and what not.

The only issue is, don't we have half the stuff with us on a sledge? We could just tell your story and say we brought back the unspoiled half for them... Figure something else out for the beggars...

No we stashed it in the storage room

Correct; we took half and stashed it in the secret room beneath the burned chapel. The other half we stashed in a storage room. As far as anyone (except for that damn Ghost Beggar spy!) can tell, our hands are clean.

Ok, I'll back the play whatever it is

I will be gone to the sequoias from tomorrow 6/25 to Monday 6/30, If there is signal up there then I will post but if not then please feel free to NPC my character.

Ooh: the coast, or the Sierras? Most of my life I associated the redwoods with the coast along highway 1; it was only in the last decade that I even became aware that there were also big sequoias in and around Yosemite.

Sierras! Love me some costal red woods too but this one is a trip to Sequoia National Park

I'll let you pick Johann's single first-level spell ... any preferences?

1. Auditory Illusion
2. Chromatic Orb
3. Colour Spray
4. Dancing Lights
5. Detect Illusion
6. Glamour
7. Hypnotism
8. Light (Darkness)
9. Phantasmal Force
10. Read Magic
11. Spook
12. Wall of Fog

I've always been a fan of phantasmal force in BX for it's ability to KO groups of low HD enemies with an illusory pit but color spray is tight too...

Those are my two contenders

Those sound good, you never know hypnotism might come in handy also.

Hypnotism sounds good to me, may come in handy to get information out of someone or thing.

Colour Spray would be my second.

I'm fine with hypnotism, a kind of mass suggestion spell, lots of uses for that

Hypnotism, color spray, or phantasmal force are all fine spells.

OK, let's go with hypnotism.

I'm fine with Hypnotism, but is that a second spell? The NPC already said that the one spell was Colour Spray.

So, since (I believe) we've done all the short-term things that we'd planned to do, the question at hand is: what to do next?

Do we:
1) Decide to return the rest of the kobolds' supplies after all?
2) Look for more goblins to exterminate?
3) Report to the Ghost Beggars that we've killed the goblins?
4) Try to fill in the rest of the level 1 map (the northern parts of the map have big gaps)?
5) Start exploring level 2?

I don't have a strong preference for any of these, though I remain pretty uneasy about dealing with the GB bastards (who've already tried to shake us down, and one of them witnessed us and got away to potentially report on us stashing kobold goods).

I vote hitting the secret door where the goblins came from and hunting them down.

Yeah I like that too, secret door has my vote.

Afterwards I'd love to flush out the northern part of the first floor, I don't think we are strong enough to go down a level yet

Oh hey GM, Ricard mentioned that he was taking a super sneaky count of the orcs in the Open Sore hideout as he was walking in and out of it...

What's the number?
