[GM]: ------------------------------------------------
[GM]: ------------------------------------------------
[GM]: Setting: In the wee hours of the 7th day of Methorah (Bright Saturday), Jackdaw notices while on watch that his spell is no more. As the other party members are awakened, a chest is discovered in the middle of camp with a scroll layed out on top. BEGIN SESSION #65
[GM]: Jackdaw has disappeared from sight and Valek walks away from camp as best as he can.
[ MikeL left the game ]
Valek continues hobbeling away from the antimagic site as quickly as his weakened condition will allow, ocassionally making very goblinish squeels in the process.
[GM]: It has been roughly 3 minutes since Jackdaw made his discovery
Jamison mentions to Phinney.." This seems to happen way to often..." go wake all the others and see if anyone can read the letter. I will watch the chest and the camp."
[GM]: Phinney "Fine den" she yells "Hey you guys ... wake up !!!"
(Valek whispered to GM): tell me when valek either gets outside the raidus or walks into some form of trap.
[GM]: Drei'Partha almost jumps straight up, landing on his feet with draw katana.
Jamison rolls his eyes...and mumbles.."that should wake everyon iin this quarter of the earth
[GM]: Lydia, Peshida and Anne rush to their feet.
[GM]: Valek move your mini on the map ... say about 30 hexes
[GM]: Anne rushes over to Jamison "What is the matter?"
Jamison mumbles.."Dwarves....no sense of sublety
[GM]: Anne's hair falls over her face in a very seductive way
[Jamison]: We have another suprise visit.. and if I am any judge... it may be another note from our wizard friend
[GM]: Drei moves with Thor to the SW in an attempt to secure camp
Jamison brushes the hair back with his hand... he is obviously, distacted...
[GM]: Phinny "Der been any of yous dat can read da language of da Old Elves?"
Jamison keeps watch....albeit distactedly...
[GM]: Peshida "I can read Old Elven"
[GM]: Phinny hands the Cursed Elf the scroll
[ Zuggtmoy joined the game ]
[GM]: ((Zugg !!!!)))
(Valek whispered to GM): I don't have the permissions.
Jamison hears grunts from the bushes...
[Zuggtmoy]: (Hi!)
[ MikeL joined the game ]
[Jamison]: OOC: Zugg
[Jamison]: hiya
[Jamison]: JD...you here to stay?
[GM]: ((Sorry Minis can be moved now))
[Anval]: Hiya MikeL, Everyone
[GM]: ((How goes it Zugg? Good to see ya ))
[GM]: Recap: Just started the session a few minutes ago. Everyone is awake now. Peshida is about to read the scroll.
[GM]: ((If you want to read the map, it may take awhile to load. Jamison had a little trouble getting it open, but waiting should do the trick))
[ MikeL left the game ]
[GM]: It has been 5 minutes since Jackdaw made his discovery
(Anval whispered to GM): The doctors say I have to take it easy for a while... I might have had a mini-stroke with all those seizures.
[Jamison]: OOC: phinney is about to have Peshida read the note...
[ MikeL joined the game ]
(GM whispered to Anval): That is terrible. If you need to drop out of the Methoria game, then it is totally understandable. Count on me for any support that I can give you.
[Jackdaw]: here we go again
[Jackdaw]: maybe
[GM]: ((he speaks !!!))
[Jamison]: hi JD...good to see you
[GM]: It has been 5 minutes since Jackdaw made his discovery
(Anval whispered to GM): Actually, I had to drop everything pretty much except this - I have to keep a *few* vices... I still have one other game too, but I can't do "one game a day" like I used to
[Jackdaw]: had some crashes but it seems to be working now
(GM whispered to Anval): Yes, that DOES sound over taxing !!!
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): did you get what JD was doing?
[Jamison]: looks good
[GM]: Waiting for Valek to move his mini 30 hexes
[Jamison]: how about Zugg...
[Valek]: I can't I don't have the permissions.
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): Yes, move your mini to where you want to go
[GM]: Valek try again
[Valek]: ok it worked this time.
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): where is my mini?
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): Okay, now your mini is visible
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): thanks
[Anval]: How about what , Jamison? (hehe)
[GM]: Peshida takes the scroll and studies it in the low light of the fire. "This is not High Elven ... Hmmm.. this is rather odd."
[Jamison]: Just checking.. wanted to see if you were still here... been a tuff nite for all
[Anval]: (Sorry I'm late)
Jamison leans over to Anne..." I think it is from our wizard friend...
[GM]: 7 mintues since the discovery
[Anval]: (Last I heard ANne was asleep - is she awake now?)
(GM whispered to Valek): Give me a Hearing roll
[GM]: Everyone is awake now
DICE for Valek: (19-3d6) : 3d6=2,2,1 = [ 14 ]
[ Harm joined the game ]
(Valek whispered to GM): of all the times to get a critical sucess: coulden't be when I'm trying to do my no sleep magic....
Jamison listens for Peshida's oritory
[Anval]: "Maybe, Jamison - but just in case, I think I'll don my armor... In a ny case it does not bode well."
(Valek whispered to GM): made by 14, on a critical sucess.
Anval begins donning her armor
(GM whispered to Valek): There is movement from the Southeast. You are still in a No Mana Zone. You may move another 20 hexes. Crit tells you that there are at least a dozen creatures coming your way
Jamison continues to watch the camp..... and of course...Anne
[ Harm left the game ]
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): did jd find out how far the no magic goes?
(Valek whispered to GM): can he tell what sort of creatures?
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): btw I'd like to change the mini but I seem to have losted all my old webrpg files
Jamison thinks...wooo---hoooo..... what a woman...
[GM]: Peshida begins to read slowly "In the High Elven Alphabet, but in the Human tounge .... very odd ... it reads '
[Anval]: "Where has Valek gone? We should regroup incase this is some sort of magical ambush? And who was on watch?!"
[Anval]: "Sorry Peshida - please continue...."
Jamison holds up a hand.. waiting for the translation
[GM]: "Since ye have chosen to ignore my warning, you are focing my hand. I cannot allow the relic to fall into the hands of he who bears the crimson flame." Signed "Shaeloffic .. of the Blue Flame"
[GM]: Peshida frowns
(Valek whispered to GM): can valek tell what sort of creature: big ones like human or orcs: huge ones like trolls, small ones like dwarves, very small like goblins?
[Jamison]: Does this makes sense to anyone?
[Anval]: /she frowns...
(GM whispered to Valek): They must be small, their footfalls are too quick and light
Anval frowns
(GM whispered to Valek): Do you continue to move?
[Anval]: "I thought we left a certain relic behind days ago?
[ MikeL left the game ]
(Valek whispered to GM): well Valek is of the inheritly trusting sort, but taking the magic away is a definate attack, so he'll retreat.
[Jamison]: Drei.. can you come here
[Jamison]: ?
[GM]: Drie and Thor spread out looking for any signs of an encounter
[Anval]: (looks at Jamison) Could you be a dear and check your gear. If that sword was cursed, it may have hidden itself on your baggage...."
[Anval]: "And does anyone know whats in this box?"
[GM]: A voice from the West "Aye I be come over der"
(GM whispered to Valek): The footsteps come closer
[Anval]: (Anne tries to open the box)
[Jamison]: Well, certainly... but I find it hard to belive that this is what the note is about
[GM]: Drei hurries over to Jamison. Thor also moves back into camp
(Valek whispered to GM): he keeps running for the camp.
(Valek whispered to GM): well he's still not really running...
(Valek whispered to GM): but he's moving as fast as he can.
[GM]: Valek is coming back to camp, it seems
[Jamison]: Hold on Anne.. let's wait a second
[Anval]: "Okay..." (Anne waits a bit)
[GM]: 9 minutes since the discovery
[Jamison]: Peshida.. ask Drei if this message means anything
[GM]: Drei arrives back at the campfire, "What is it dat ye want?"
[Anval]: Anne ensures her armor is on, and ready - and gathers her gear and weapons, in case she is forced to mount and ride quickly.
[Jamison]: JD.. are you there... get over here
[GM]: Peshida nods and hands the note to Drei
[GM]: Lydia is getting her gear ready. She pulls out a twin crossbow and an autoprod and are checking them out thoroughly
[Jamison]: Darn Fawn... just when you need him
[Jamison]: everyone... arm themselves
[GM]: Jackdaw is no where to be seen, but Valek re enters camp
(GM whispered to Valek): You are back
[Jamison]: Valek... are you ok???
[GM]: Valek looks ... drained and weak
[Jamison]: we need a parimeter...
[GM]: Drei studies the scroll, "Dis be very odd. Da language of High Elves but words in da Human tounge of Ral" he scratches his head.
Valek shakes his head- looking quite yellow and exausted "There are at least 12 creatures not far behind me."
[GM]: Peshida readies his staff
[GM]: Thor "Which direction?"
[Jamison]: OOC: did Thor come back?
[Anval]: Anne readies her mace.... "I knew this could not bode well... Jamison - Thor - are you ready, in case it comes to blows?"
[GM]: Thor is 10 yds to the south of everyone, but within earshot
[GM]: Thor "I be ready for a fight if need be"
[Jamison]: Peshida.. fill Drei in on the contents of the note... His runes may help us understand
Valek points <SW on the map>
[GM]: Drei "I understand wat it say. I can read da High Elven. Who is dis Shaeloffic?"
[ MikeL joined the game ]
[Jamison]: Anne... Thor...Myself.... let's make a wall of force...
[Valek]: "I'm afaraid I'm powerless in this no manna area, worse yet I'm quite sick."
[GM]: ((note is in the workbench.))
[Jackdaw]: eventually it may all work
[GM]: This is how it looks
[Jamison]: OOC: nice Rubix
[Anval]: oooh - pretty!
[Jamison]: OOC: new alphabet?
[GM]: 12 minutes since the discovery
[Anval]: (nice work Rubix!)
Valek looks at the scroll if no one else is doing it.
[GM]: ((that is the High Elven alphabet))
[Jamison]: Phinney... Anne..Jamison...Thor..... font line... let's meet who's comming
[Jamison]: font=front
[Anval]: "Fine by me... But Phinny may want to hold back - she's a merchant, not a fighter."
[GM]: Jackdaw reappears from the west
[Anval]: (Anne moves closer to Thor, to take up a defence position)
[Jamison]: Never met a drarf that I did not want at my back
Valek quickly finishes reading the scroll "I guess we did not correctly get rid of the artifact; quickly place anything magical you possess on the ground."
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): The whole valley is affected by this No Mana it seems. Do you keep looking around?
(Jackdaw whispered to GM): my wanted to looked at my new present so my will goed back
[Anval]: "All I possess in magic is my armor and you can strip it from my dead corpse before I'll take it off right now. I had it made special - its no relic."
[GM]: Lydia is ready with Twin Crossbow "You don't mean the ... Egg do you?"
[Valek]: "Anything that may be magical, the egg included."
[GM]: Jackdaw is returning
Jamison does something that no one else in the party has seen before.... he separates his staff
[GM]: Lydia "But you don't understand ... this IS the Philospher's Egg ... it is Priceless. I cannot let it go"
Valek places his staff on the ground <It has no magic, but better safe then sorry.>
[Valek]: "You you prefer to be feeding the mushrooms?"
[GM]: Thor does a double take at Jamison's staff. "Is that thing defective?"
[GM]: Hearing rolls from all
[Jamison]: Anyone noticing sees Jamison holding a Kantana
DICE for Anval: (3d6) : 3d6=6,1,1 = [ 8 ]
[Jamison]: Hardly
[Anval]: (made it by 6)

(GM whispered to Valek): the footsteps come closer
(GM whispered to Just watching): Many footsteps approach from the Canyon's entrance.
(GM whispered to Anval): Many footsteps approach from the Canyon's entrance.
(GM whispered to Jackdaw): Many footsteps approach from the Canyon's entrance.
[Valek]: "This is not the time to argue, or worry about silly things like material objects."
Jackdaw calls out "peoples comminged"
[GM]: Thor "Did anyone think to check inside the chest?"
[GM]: Valek Vision roll please
[Valek]: "No one openend the chest?"
[Anval]: "I hear what ever is coming, coming... I suggest those who aren't going to fight, take cover and hide!"
DICE for Valek: (19-3d6) : 3d6=2,2,6 = [ 9 ]
[Jamison]: No time... when we know what's coming
[Valek]: <Made by 9>
[Jamison]: WWe can check out then... secure the camp
(GM whispered to Valek): You see them.... nearly a dozen and a half ... Goblins
[Valek]: "18 goblins on the rise."
Jackdaw moves to hide by the rock ion front of Thor
[Anval]: We could try and mount a defence near those two huge boulders if we hurry... Otherwise we'll be trapped in here."
[GM]: 15 minutes since the discovery and they arrive.
(Jamison whispered to GM): Haven't I moved yet... sorry..
[GM]: The horses are beginning to panic now.
Valek opens the chest figuring that if it's a no manna zone it has to be safe...
(Jamison whispered to GM): Hurry JD
Jackdaw then changes him mind and goes back to camp for him staFF
[GM]: The Chest is full of .... gold and gems
[Jamison]: Hurry JD
[Anval]: (huh?!)
Jackdaw picks up him staff
[GM]: Drei "Dis not be gud. Maybe we needs some help from Ral?" looking at Anne
(Jamison whispered to GM): Suggest moves in sequence now
Valek gives a pecular sound and starts knocking it aside as if it were worthless looking for something important hidden within.
(Jamison whispered to GM): because I'm lost in the sequence
[GM]: Everyone in the place that they want to be?
[Anval]: I agree Drei - a few spells will aid in whatever fight is about to occur...
(Valek whispered to GM): the map is now crashing my computer: I had to shut it down.
Jackdaw rummages in him sachel and getted out 2 boas too
Jamison wants to stand next to Anne....... to protect her
[Anval]: (Anne begins casting Haste - 2 sec)
[GM]: Drei cast a spell
[Jackdaw]: boas=bolas altho he would like a boas
[GM]: BEGIN COMBAT MODE
[GM]: here is the sequence ....
(Jamison whispered to GM): Zugg.... I hope I am not imposing.. and this note is going to Rub, also... I want to present myself(Jamison) as Annes, protector.... any problems?
[GM]: Thor, Jackdaw, Jamison, Peshida, Lydia, Drei, Phinny, Valek, Anne

[Jackdaw]: other bola also gripped in left hand

[Valek]: <If he puts them on the map the room will crash!>

(Valek whispered to GM): sorry washroom.
[GM]: Gobins move
[Anval]: (her speed is +2 for 1 minute, cost 4 fatigue)
(Valek whispered to GM): Valek is going to figure that since the energy cost of converting 30+ hexes of land to no manna is too immense this is some kind of magical illusion- he's going to try casting magic through the illusion: Namely seeker- for the object mentioned in the scroll <A stretch I know.>
[GM]: The visibility from the darkness of the canyon with only the fire as light is going to cause a -3 to all vision based actions.
[Anval]: As battle is about to ensue, Anval feels a familiar fury - like an old friend - decend upon her....

(GM whispered to Valek): A thief has no honor !!! You will die for this !!
[GM]: Jamison, your action
(Valek whispered to GM): remember Valek's race is considered above most things- a goblin would probabally be more likely to belive the most proposterous Fell story then think that a Fell would willingly do them wrong <sanctity>

[GM]: This one hits for 3 points of damage if you don't stop it.
[GM]: Dodge = move .. but you get to add any PD into that

(Jamison whispered to GM): can I have made it an acrobatic dodge?

DICE for GM: (3d6) : 3d6=5,5,6 = [ 16 ]

(Jamison whispered to GM): yes
[GM]: Actually what is your dodge Jamison?
[GM]: A 6 right?
(Jamison whispered to GM): I think..and not sure..my move is 6
(Jamison whispered to GM): dex=16
[GM]: With the shot hitting your boot, it will miss because boots have a PD of 2 .... so you luck out. That hit location roll saved you some damage.
(Jamison whispered to GM): is 16 dex= 6 mov?
[GM]: The arrow hits Jamison's boot but is deflected. Jamison might feel that that one was a little close for comfort.
