I have made dice rolls based on stated player intent and PC actions and used those to help create an IC post to gloss the action and results.

Feel free to post in the new chapter/part 8, guys.

If anyone wants to apply additional skill checks, cast a spell, leave the scene, etc., just let me know, as usual.

Do we have time for Raen to dig even deeper on the "Plant people are not here" before Katrin brings up that the immune to lighting plant people are here?

Sure, if you post before Kintire posts.

Nah, Raen has embarrassed himself enough as it is.

Ah, those are great rolls for Adam's stated intent/actions.

I've skipped over several hours of downtime/travel and search.

All actions referred to IC were things you guys posted about above.

So, the authorities came to us? Good. Save us the trouble.
Raen would politely inquire what are the Graycloaks (or if they are called such) and who they serve but not immediately. He would let others speak first to Sir Dalton.

Sir Clive found them. I have sent the player something by PM, but it's hardly a secret, so I will probably edit that scene to include a spoiler-boxed interim. Feel free to read it.

So... as it seems we're staying, can Raen say his piece? How he has worked with militia in another world a different city and such?

IC UPDATE POSTED.


treasure/rewards:

scrolls of honorary Harrowdale citizenship

masterwork/darkwood coffer with masterwork lock and key

1 potion of cure moderate wounds


1 potion of delay poison

a supply of medicinal herbs (A PC with knowledge nature and/or heal skill could create remedies for common ailments with these)

several packets of spices (valuable trade goods)

traveler's cloak (one for each PC)

new boots for Katrin

Tymora's holy symbol for Benn

1 gold coin each (militia pay)

sack of smoked fish


+the other stuff you picked up in previous scenes and a refund of your travel fare (on the cargo ship).

---------------------

Bonus 200 xp to every PC.
That may not level anybody up, but I encourage you all to check the numbers.

Everyone is at full hit points again.


Any questions? Comments?
Stuff you want to do before the chapter closes?

Is the party generally agreed about taking the magical shortcut?

The ship’s master promptly refunds the party’s travel expenses, as promised.
He agreed to give back half of what we payed, so I will be adding 140gp back to the value of our trade goods.

With this and the extra silk we scrounged from the city hall (I think), how much value does that add to our travel fund? Should someone make an appraise check?

I am in agreement on using the shortcut.

All correct, Wolfglide.

Return 140 gp to fund.

Yes, an appraise skill check is in order.

My base Appraise is not that good (+2), so at noon of that day or the next (whichever comes first after being presented with the spices), Klokulf will prepare divine insight instead of body blades, then cast it to get a +10 bonus on Appraise. Then his spell list will stand at its original lineup afterward.

Appraise (+12):
0
Total: 30
