Tarlyn, is it possible that Van's PC and mine would have time to swap spells before the next scene [seeing as it is the next day]? I'd like to teach her Stoneksin and have Cornelius copy Polymorph.

Not really because that takes 24 hours. Unless you two don't go out on the morning and meet up with the others in the evening? Up to you.

Oh, it does take 24 hours. Hmmmm... well if VAN is cool with waiting, I'm fine with it.

If not, time to break out my upper level diviniation -fu and find these missing dudes! Heck yeah.

I have no problem Ewan, you decide. Both ideas are fine! :wink:

I say we swap spells and then join the others. they can handle the initial investigation without us. Then I can break out my scrying powers, once they get some background info for me to work with. Items carried by the missing men, last known whereabouts,etc.

Ok, I've written a post, but as you can see, it's only a preparatory one. I need some collaboration from the others, but if you wish, I can go along with the morning post and have Lucius cast the spell in his room. Then I'll come down and hope someone is already leading a short talk with the innkeeper. So, what are everybody's thoughts?

Well I guess whoever has the best Charisma based skills (diplomacy, bluff, intimidate) should do it.

Draven being what he is, doesnt excel at this stuff (Charisma score of 9 :wink: ), but he can happily play "bad cop" if someone else wants to take the lead?

I don't think the good cop/bad cop it's a good idea, we want the innkeeper to collaborate with us and we don't care if he actually tells us what we ask, we just want him to think about it :wink:

I think Tarlyn or Jacob have probably the best Charisma. The drow get +2 CHA :wink:

They do? Wow! At any rate, they also get an Outcast Rating, and I'd assume it would more than offset that Cha bonus. But as you said before, I don't think that is important, anyway. Perhaps we should even go for the least Cha anyway, we want BAD THOUGHTS, right? :-)

But seriously, my bet would be on the middle ground. Jacob and Tarlyn would be good ideas. As would anyone else, I'm sure :-)

Well then we are down to Draven, William, Cornelius and Van. Since the mages were going to scribe spells, could Draven or William lead the conversation?

Draven certainly can, although if Tarlyn starts asking for diplomacy checks dont say I didnt warn you......
