Which, I'm guessing, is why our kind DM picked now to have the dog get sick.

I do try and think of anything. Granted I've managed to screw up *royally* a few times this game, but still...

Speaking of screw-ups, I should've had Kuzan mention some useful spells he could have handy tomorrow for questioning. Ah well.

So I drew a portrait of Lia, but I can't make the image appear over here. Ahem. Please take a look here. Note: The full version looks marginally better, though it still doesn't quite do justice to the handdrawn version currently lying next to me.
Incidentally, anyone who wants me to do their portrait is free to ask, though it may well take some time before I can get to it, and I can't guarantee better quality than Lia's. ^^; Lots to do, lots to do ... I also do not know how to pare these images down to the size needed for NeoTiamat's headers.

If you do, just give me the credit for it, 'mkay?

I like the eyes.

Also, that really does help. I was picturing Lia's veil setup as being relativly different...I guess the way you have it, I'd describe it as a mask or something instead, but that's me. But your design is a lot more pratical then the ways I was thinking of fitting an elaborate veil setup into Mordent.

Ah, I forgot to mention: in this version, I forgot to add the veil. This is just Lia in her usual outfit, wearing a mask, but not the veil. Imagine it was ripped away by the wind or something, eh? ^^;

Oh neat, and a little spooky! I'll shrink it when I get back around to working on those again. NT has some things he wants me to change with them, just busy with other projects atm.

I also imagined her veil setup to look different. I had envisioned something akin to a Chinese basket hat with long veils hanging off the edge. But it looks good nonetheless!

As Lia stated a graverobber. If this is the case, would a necromancer or maybe someone in that vein who needs body parts be responsible?

Or as a source of raw materials for charms, aphrodisiacs, or to be sold to the anatomical department of universities ... There are plenty of uses for a corpse, none of them particularly pleasant.

They make great centerpieces when you're holding a banquet for the local chapter of the league of nefarious intent.

....what?

Nathan, please click here.

I'd like to get your input before I go any further with this. There're some things I think I want to change before I move on to the inks, but after about an hour and a half of scribbling and unscribbling, this is where I came out. Even though this will just be cel-shaded if/when I get around to coloring (I'm behind on production for my major project), I am going for a "classic portrait" sort of posture.

Oh my... quite nice.

Also, I found a skill use (or technically I found it and then put Yalenus to digging for it) that I think certain spellcasters in our party will find useful. Pity I didn't learn of this earlier. Ah well, live and learn.

Sleight of Hand

Sleight of Hand is a well-known skill of rogues, thieves, and street magicians everywhere. It also has a practical use to the magic-using world, allowing spellcasters to cast their spells while avoiding the notice of others.

Check: When casting a spell, you may make a Sleight of Hand check to make your verbal and somatic components less obtrusive, muttering magic words under your breath and making magic gestures within your sleeves. Your Sleight of Hand check is opposed by any observer's Spot check. The observer's success doesn't prevent you from casting the spell, just from doing it unnoticed.

Action: None. You make the check as part of your normal spellcasting.

Try Again: Yes, but after an initial failure, you take a -10 penalty on a second Sleight of Hand attempt against the same target (or while the same observer who noticed your previous attempt is watching you).

Oh, also, I've probably been forgetting this, but there are more maps in the Cast & XP thread (that thing needs a shorter name)

Front of the Fane of Andral, and a general map of Stefan's Farm.
