*DM has had a meal and PCs are no longer in imminent danger*

First order of business, bonus XP to both Kaitou Kage and Rock. Speaking as one who has been in close contact with random people for 48 hours, you generally want to kill them. So a bit of argument is usually good, so long as it stays a purely IC argument. Anyway, bonus XP for both.

Secondly, it appears that the general consensus is to go after Dieter first, and then to the Vossath Nor ruins? Unless someone corrects me, I'll progress the scene to the search for Dieter sometime tomorrow.

Oh, also, just a reminder, but don't forget about the big phase spiders or the Krenshar-owning wizard.

Yeah, Otto felt it was a bad time to tell everyone about the spiders/krenshar just after everyone had finished yelling at each other--plus, bringing up the whole "running errands for wolves" thing in front of Basler wouldn't exactly qualify him for any Inconspicuous Awards, given his particular circumstances. If nobody else gets around to it, he'll break the news before too long.

Sorry about the losses, dude--better luck next time, yeah?

If it doesnt take too long to find Dieter, the phase spiders can be next! Maybe Otto can bring them up while we go find Dieter?

That's the plan, mac.

So slighty confused. If you split up with two trackers, I presume one of them isn't being used to track? Otherwise both noses go the same way and you sort of lose the point of having two groups.

Also, keep in mind, Small-Star is still very low Con due to residual Phase Spider Poison, so while she'll get better, she's still weak as a kitten.

Okay, easy question: Do you (you specifically); wish to go to the ruins to figure out what's what, or do you want to track Dieter with the doggy?

Dieter first; presumably the ruins aren't going anywhere. If we do two groups Charles will search for Dieter; he didn't like the ruins all that well. :-/

Gah--yeah, that makes sense. Apparently, Otto and I are *both* pretty out of it.

And seconded on Nathan's opinion--though Otto obviously wants to head to the ruins really badly, he does recognize at least intellectually that putting the search party first is the right idea.

Kuzan's decidedly in this group.

Just...y'know...in case you can't tell...not like it's obvious or anything...

Yeah, finding Deiter > Ancient Ruins. Tomas is just being quiet because he doesn't grok Hazlani politics and that made him kind of uncomfortable earlier.

1. Find the midgets....

2.Find Dieter
3.Ruins
4.Disregard 1.

NeoTiamat · Post by **NeoTiamat** » Mon Feb 18, 2008 12:29 pm

This appears to be the general consensus, ergo, you're all going after Dieter. I am going off to post.

Info: Irony Dice is acting up, so for the time being, you can revert to whatever rolls you used before, at least until it starts working again.

I tried to use it to send Neo a roll. Dang.

Announcement: Bonus XP

Okay, a few bonus XP opportunities that have come to my mind right now, for those of you not artistically gifted.

Spell Invocations: The honorable DM has been reading the Dresden Files over the last few weeks, and I've had the idea of instead of saying "Generic Arcane Syllable", using quasi-Latin or other foreign phrases.

So instead of "He called lightning down," the wizard can yell out "Fulmino Vente!"

This is possibly corny, but it fits the vaguely Hollywood-esque tone that seems to have been set so far. Will pay 50 XP per spell granted an invocation. As for how many spells... lots

Songwriting: I need someone to write me up a multi-verse song for when you guys arrive in Pharazia. Slow, rolling, but long. Pays 500 XP.

Background Fiction: If you want to write a little story involving your character, I will post it in the Cutscenes section of the story. Essentially, this is portrait-drawing for those without art skills. Stories pay 250-1000 XP based on length and quality.

Café de Nuit

Welcome, friends, to our establishment.
