Valerian is going to need some rest, and Sefi is still mostly useless for guard duty, so both of them will probably sleep.

As for how far, however far Valerian can keep goin carrying Tara. A mile or two?

I mean, if Strahd had closed the borders Tara would have died too, so for sure he wouldn't do it. :wink:
But in that case, what was that fog? How far did it go? I don't think it was something else but closed borders, and in that case, no mortal magic could overcome it, as per the rules. Of course, and I'm not complaining, the DM does what is best for his game and I have no problems with that.

Believe I'm not compain at all, I'm more than happy that we are all alive and away from Strahd. I'm just telling that Strahd didn't know that we had the vials and we could pass the borders, but he did know that Tara would have died if he had closed the borders... I guess he would prefer to keep her alive and let us go than be responsible to loose her another more time...

As for Van, he will do a watch since he is capable to cast offensive spells but he will sleep 8 hours too. He has lost SP and he should get them back.

BTW Draven can do a watch or he is still under the effect of morphine?

No he took it about 1:30 am, meaning he only had about 30 mins of effect left once Sefi woke everyone up. He's nauseated for a couple of hours as a comedown, but he isnt about to sleep through that anyway.

Doesn't nauseate prevent you from any kind of attack or any task requiring concentration?

Not as far as the QTR article says. Nauseous characters get a -1 penalty on all rolls whislt nauseated, and may not rest, regain hp, heal ability damage or learn spells whislt nauseated.

"What a feeling" isn't Irene Cara's song? The one who sings "Fame".

But we don't make it happen... as the song says... :lol:

So do we sleep to the ground? Or Cornelius has casted tiny hut and the tents are only beside it?

And what about the 3rd watch? William cannot do it alone, maybe Sefi or Vallerian can do it with him.

Draven is'nt too keen on the idea of wandering alone in the dark, but he is aware of the potential hazards a night abroad carries. He stops a hundred yards from the edge of the camp strainging his senses to pick up anything amiss.

Don't hear or see anything at 60 feet. No smell at 30 feet for Sefi
