Bernard Blackbrass: come on seishi
Bernard Blackbrass: drufle said if we kill Freudicon I get five levels.
The Drufle: i said 4 you dope
The Drufle: i also said thats not possible
Bernard Blackbrass: See? Four levels!
The Drufle: and also retarded
Ezra: he's a mad derailer drufle! he's off the tracks! nuke 'im
Ezra: invent nukes then nuke him
Seishi Honekawa: freudicon only needs some love
Ezra: right in the butt
Seishi Honekawa: we need to find his mother for him
The Drufle: Seriously though, don't freaking hit Freudicon.
Bernard Blackbrass: Good idea Seishi, we take her hostage.
The Drufle: He is far more powerful than any of you, so don't hit him.
Bernard Blackbrass: Then when this starts
Bernard Blackbrass: I walk up to him
Bernard Blackbrass: and hug him.
Ezra: We have no reason to, of course.
The Drufle: I would rather not have this session end with a self-inflicted TPK.
Ezra: I'm not sure if you should hug him.
The Drufle: That would be silly.
Ezra: I feel like he has issues.
Bernard Blackbrass: Yes, yes it would.
Bernard Blackbrass: But I am the only one who can do it.
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh wait
Bernard Blackbrass: I am the one who should not do it, due to poison.
The Drufle: Yup.
The Drufle: Don't forget those cards.
Bernard Blackbrass: Okay one of you ladies should hug him.
Ezra: Man I'd forgotten about that.
The Drufle: Speaking of which, I don't think the Rabbit Prince has come up yet.
The Drufle: Not that I recall at least.
Ezra: man that card and its mysteries
Ezra: what do i have to do
The Drufle: Honestly it probably has and I just totally forgot about it.
Ezra: do i have to punch brass
Bernard Blackbrass: You have to hug Freudicon.
The Drufle: That depends, how hard are you punching him?
Ezra: 10d6
Ezra: don't ask how
Ezra: i did some things
The Drufle: I know how.
Ezra: thats right
Ezra: i punch him 10 times
Bernard Blackbrass: !!!
Bernard Blackbrass: Okay.
The Drufle: You'd have to roll to hit first.
The Drufle: Also, don't.
Ezra: but he's just standing there!
Bernard Blackbrass: nah do it
Ezra: he'd take it
Bernard Blackbrass: freudicon would love it
The Drufle: I know you're evil but please don't kill your teammates.
The Drufle: Also he's covered in death poison.
Bernard Blackbrass: fuck drufle
Ezra: don't worry, punches are nonlethal
Bernard Blackbrass: >
Ezra: and im canonically wearing gloves
Bernard Blackbrass: why did you
Ezra: in the canon
Ezra: you can check the canon
Ezra: its over there
Ezra: that huge growing mass
YEAH WHATEVER. Last time, these bastards here went to the island of dicks and talked to the dickmaster. But there weren't actually any dicks. Because this adventure is of course rated U. Pixar's animating it. I'm gonna be RICH.
The Evil Saga! ~ Session 19: Metal Gear Seishi 5 (Extended Cutscenes Edition)
Seishi Honekawa: im still here
The Drufle: Good.
Seishi Honekawa: im just trying to finish a book
Bernard Blackbrass: Let's get Hina.
Bernard Blackbrass: Hina can hug Freudicon.
The Drufle: Let's begin what will surely be an incredibly long talking session.
The Drufle: Satona probably won't be here for most of the session.
The Drufle: So!
Ezra: he said so himself! i heard him i did
The Drufle: Last time, the party finally decided to go to Oedipia and do what they were told to do like four sessions ago.
The Drufle: They finally met the fabled Freudicon who is... odd.
The Drufle: He is rushing back and forth, trying to do work with various papers and graphs.
The Drufle: Very busy man, you see.
Ezra: "Mr. Freudicon, sir?"
Freudicon: "Yes that's me wait why do you know my name who are you?"
Ezra: "We were told to seek you out, on account of your wisdom, and stuff."
Freudicon: "Oh yes I am quite a learned man yes I am oh yes."
Freudicon: "Who sent you to me hm is it someone I know?"
Ezra: "Do you know Arali?"
Bernard Blackbrass: oh fuck he's using instant transmission
Ezra: yeah he's a jumpy one isn't he
Seishi Honekawa: "If you scored your learnedness from 10 to 20, how learned are you?"
Freudicon: "Never heard of them seems like a nice name though isn't it wait maybe I do know them."
Freudicon: "My learnedness is not a number silly bird lady why are you a bird again?"
Seishi Honekawa: he should lay off the coffee
Bernard Blackbrass: "Can I have a jar of sand?"
Ezra: "Sometimes people are birds, sir."
Ezra: "But just a little."
Bernard Blackbrass: "You seem like the type who has a jar of sand."
Freudicon: "I don't have any sand with me Mr. devil sir but there is a beach outside look a beach right outside."
Seishi Honekawa: "What is it that you do here?"
Freudicon: "I'm doing research!"
Seishi Honekawa: "Research on what?"
Freudicon: "Oh lots of things various things eccentric things nothing evil though evil is bad so is Majri wait you don't know Majri that makes no sense to you sorry."
Bernard Blackbrass: -We don't know Majri-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Shush!-
Ezra: -what-
Ezra: -show him the mask-
Bernard Blackbrass: -I'm wearing it.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -...-
Bernard Blackbrass: -...fuck.-
Freudicon: "Mostly this though you see ms. bird lady look!"
* Seishi Honekawa looks.
* Freudicon takes a piece of paper and shoves it in Seishi's face.
Ezra: -We're here for information. There's not much point hiding anything.-
Seishi Honekawa: "oh god what"
Seishi Honekawa:
Perception Check
At-Will • Wis
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + Perception + WisBonus = 7 + 2 + 3 = 12 »
The Drufle: It shows what appears to be a large device with many prongs and gears.
Ezra: -I mean, he's our enemy's enemy.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Yeah I guess.-
Ezra: -Don't they have some kind of saying about that.-
The Drufle: Mostly however, it is covered in leather.
Seishi Honekawa: -What the heck is this?"
Ezra: -I can't remember.-
Seishi Honekawa: -
Seishi Honekawa: is this a sex toy, drufle
The Drufle: "Yes my research is very important very important indeed!"
Seishi Honekawa: a giant mechanical sex toy
Bernard Blackbrass: -The enemy of my enemy is anenome.-
The Drufle: Whoops
Freudicon: "Yes my research is very important very important indeed!"
The Drufle: No, it isn't.
The Drufle: At least, not one that you can recognize.
Seishi Honekawa: -Do you know what this is?-
Seishi Honekawa: *to party members*
Bernard Blackbrass:
Knowledge Engineering Check
At-Will • Int
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + KnowledgeEngineering + IntBonus = 5 + 0 + 5 = 10 »
Bernard Blackbrass: Oh my god update this sheet
Seishi Honekawa: its literally the first button
The Drufle: To you it just looks like a giant leather-covered wheel with lots of blunt spokes.
The Drufle: Yeah, you could probably update your stats quickly right now if you'd like.
Seishi Honekawa: sounds like a torture device
The Drufle: Maybe!
The Drufle: It isn't evil though.
Seishi Honekawa: how the heck should i know
Bernard Blackbrass: Are you saying torture is evil?
Freudicon: "So why are you here again you wanted learning things right I am good with learning things not so sure about teaching things."
Seishi Honekawa: -what else what else what else-
Bernard Blackbrass: Torture is means to an end. Do evil people use torture? Maybe.
Ezra: "We've got this mask. It seemed important."
Freudicon: "Ooh masks I like masks they are quite good at hiding faces."
Seishi Honekawa: "Yes we are here to be learned about that mask."
Ezra: "It's missing things. And it's got words on it too."
Freudicon: "Is it the mask on yonder devil man's face that is quite a mask my what a mask."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Can I have something to drink, please?"
* Bernard Blackbrass doesn't move.
Seishi Honekawa: "I can create water for you. Just open your mouth."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Ha ha ha."
Freudicon: "I have water and juice and alcohol."
Freudicon: "Mostly water though."
Freudicon: "Can I have the mask I would sure like to see that mask it is quite interesting."
Seishi Honekawa: who even serves juice
Bernard Blackbrass: "I'll take the last two." With that, Brass pulls off the mask. "I think I have maybe a few tea packets."
Bernard Blackbrass: Juice is nice.
Ezra: I of course do not drink alcohol. It's the devil's juice.
Bernard Blackbrass: "You cannot /have/ it because it might be a bit dangerous to put on."
* Freudicon rushes and grabs a cup of what appears to be orange juice and a glass of whiskey.
Bernard Blackbrass: "It's broken, you see."
Freudicon: "Ah broken what a shame broken things can be fixed!"
Freudicon: "Fixing things is also a thing I am good at oh yes fixing things."
Bernard Blackbrass: "You know where the pieces are then."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Presumably."
Ezra: "Four things seem to be missing from it. Elemental in nature, probably."
Freudicon: "This mask is quite familiar yes the words on it are from an old legend I used to hear."
Seishi Honekawa: "Shiny things!"
Freudicon: "Silly prophecies always doing the kind of things that become real oh those silly prophecies."
Seishi Honekawa: "Prophecies..."
Freudicon: "Also why do you have that mask that is a VERY powerful mask you should not have it."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I think those oracles are just stoned half the time."
Bernard Blackbrass: "They say Majri was supposed to have it. Hah."
Bernard Blackbrass: "He couldn't even put it on, but I did."
Freudicon: "Oh you know Majri then ah good he is still alive that silly man."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Very silly."
Ezra: "Then we stole some of his things because he was a jerk."
Freudicon: "Trying to kill the world but mostly me my what a silly suli he is."
Seishi Honekawa: "They scavenged"
Seishi Honekawa: silly suli
Freudicon: "He should have known better than to take things that didn't belong to him oh he was always bad at things when it came to things about breaking worlds."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Well, we didn't let him have it."
* Bernard Blackbrass grins cheekily over his glass of whiskey, looking at Ezra.
Ezra: "He wanted to keep it and never fix it."
Freudicon: "Oh he couldn't have taken it by force anyway most people can't I hear the legend says it is a VERY powerful mask."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Really."
Freudicon: "Oh no he would have fixed absolutely he likes fixing things too."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Yeah well now we fix it."
Freudicon: "Not as much as he likes breaking things though he is a silly suli did I mention that?"
Ezra: "I don't think you did."
Freudicon: "Good fixing things is great! do you have the other parts hm?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "We could use some direction."
Seishi Honekawa: "Only this one."
Seishi Honekawa: "What happens when this mask is fixed?"
Freudicon: "Oh you don't have the four gems that is quite sad I bet they are very far away yes that tends to happen with nutty exiled planar lords oh those silly planar lords."
Freudicon: "It is even more powerful of course what happens when you add powerful things to a powerful thing it gets MORE POWERFUL."
Freudicon: "Silly bird lady."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Hey can we sit down a while and drink?"
Freudicon: "Oh I am quite sorry am I rushing you my apologies I am so very busy this is quite a lot of work you see."
Seishi Honekawa: "Drinking is for people with drinking problems"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Come on mate. Just a little while."
Bernard Blackbrass:
Diplomacy Check
At-Will • Cha
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + Diplomacy + ChaBonus = 3 + 4 + 2 = 9 »
Bernard Blackbrass: (Where's that Diplomacy modifier)
Ezra: "This is a nice island you've got."
* Freudicon tosses all of the papers in his hands onto a nearby desk and yanks a chair from the side of the room and sits on it, staring at Brass.
Seishi Honekawa: "Why do you live alone on this island?"
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+12 => 3 + 12 = 15
* Bernard Blackbrass grins.
Freudicon: "Oh I like my island very much I do it is all mine because people do not like my island."
Ezra: my diplomacy is lacking
Seishi Honekawa: let's find out his sappy backstory
* Bernard Blackbrass takes another sip. "Silly people."
Freudicon: "Oh yes people are quite silly why would you not want magically altered nature that is such a nice thing."
Seishi Honekawa: "Wha kind of magic do you do?"
Freudicon: "Although I believe it has begun running out of control a bit since I was doing all this work so much work."
Freudicon: "All of the magics of course except mostly the ones that create things and summon things and kill things so that I do not have to kill things myself."
Ezra: "I've got ninja magic."
Freudicon: "Ninja magic is a kind of magic yes I hear a lot of people in East Chronis have that is a good magic."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I don't know magic."
Seishi Honekawa: "My deity gives me magic."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Well, I /know/ magic, I just don't /do/ magic I guess."
Bernard Blackbrass: "I could have been good at magic."
Freudicon: "Everyone deserves magic it is so much fun magic is wonderful you should all have magic."
Freudicon: "Oh the other pieces of that mask have magic you can get those and then have magic yes more magic!"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Hey, Freudy. Lemme tell you a story."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Back when I was in school, right?"
Bernard Blackbrass: (I wish I had an amusing story in full here)
Freudicon: "Oh school I remember school that was so very long ago."
Bernard Blackbrass: (Or a joke)
Bernard Blackbrass: (Brass does, definitely.)
Seishi Honekawa: "So you're a wizard?"
Freudicon: "What's a wizard is that a word for a magic person if so then yes I am totally a wizard."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Little punk gets angsty when I ask him for the answers. One of those stuck up elves or whatever."
Bernard Blackbrass: "He starts slinging little fireballs at me when I peek at his notes."
* Bernard Blackbrass smirks. "Didn't get singed a bit, but his poor essay."
Bernard Blackbrass: (Brass was smart enough anyway, but still acted like a bully who'd take your homework.)
Ezra: damn ganondorf
Ezra: stealin my homework
Ezra: "Freud, can you tell us more about the gems?"
Freudicon: "Oh right the gems yes I know about those gems I do."
* Bernard Blackbrass nudges the whiskey to everyone. Mostly Freudicon.
Bernard Blackbrass: -Mostly Freudicon.-
Freudicon: "There are four of them you see they are part of that mask there I do not recall the name of the mask but it was very very powerful."
Seishi Honekawa: "Where do you think the gems are located?"
Freudicon: "I don't know exactly where the gems are but I have fairly good guesses based off of the prophecy that told where they would end up."
Freudicon: "Let me think let me think where were the gems I had this written down somewhere."
* Freudicon jumps from his chair and starts tearing through notes.
Bernard Blackbrass: -Oh god damn it.-
Freudicon: "Yes yes here it is this is the prophecy oh wait no that's the other elemental prophecy wrong one sorry here is the right one yes."
* Freudicon pulls a single book out of the pile of papers and sits down again.
* Freudicon clears his throat and suddenly begins speaking in a significantly slower, more controlled manner.
Freudicon: "The four gems will be strewn through the lands of the elden planet by the great Lord of Flame, Xarn, and he will perish with their memories."
Freudicon: "The sapphire of Sael, stone of water, will be taken by a great man of the storm, one who knows the ways of the seas."
Freudicon: "The amethyst of Eyan, stone of air, will fall into the hands of the greatest of empires, their crown jewel."
Freudicon: "The emerald of Raltor, stone of earth, will become one with the stones of many of a beast of old, deep under ground."
Freudicon: "And Xarn's own ruby, stone of fire, will be guarded by he who wishes to rend the world in twain by his power."
Freudicon: "So the gems will be separated, so they shall be found by they who search."
* Freudicon shuts the book and tosses it behind him.
* Bernard Blackbrass grins maniacally.
Freudicon: "See a very weird prophecy so weird does not make much sense."
Freudicon: "Of course it actually does make sense but ah whatever you do not understand."
Ezra: "Hrm..."
Seishi Honekawa: "Most prophecies don't"
Seishi Honekawa: "it's like they do it on purpose"
Ezra: "The last one seemed fairly obvious."
Freudicon: "I mean at least two of these are very clear you know."
Seishi Honekawa: "Not really."
Freudicon: "Yes isn't it quite so I mean clearly the ruby is in the hands of Keltin, the mad prince."
Ezra: "Who's the great empire? Anyone know of one that fits?"
Freudicon: "Wait how long have I been here maybe he's dead hm."
Ezra: "I was uh, thinkin' Majri."
Seishi Honekawa: "Doesn't ring a bell..."
Ezra: "Who's Keltin?"
Freudicon: "Oh Majri yes that does make more sense silly me."
Freudicon: "Oh don't worry about Keltin he was the old prince of Cosma a long time ago he is long dead by now I think."
* Freudicon jumps up again and looks through his papers to find a calendar.
Freudicon: "Ah yes see here he died a good 14,500 years ago he does not have the ruby that is good."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Welcome the New Boss."
Freudicon: "Boss who is boss I do not understand the words that you are speaking."
Ezra: "How about that Amethyst, then?"
* Bernard Blackbrass finishes "Same as the old boss."
Seishi Honekawa: -If Freudicon were a little girl his mannerisms can almost be considered 'cute'-
Bernard Blackbrass: -I know, now he's just Veilwar adorable.-
Freudicon: "Oh the amethyst is most clearly in Cosma's royal court I mean what other crazy empire would take an obviously powerful gem and stick it right with their royalty."
Ezra: "Anyone been there before?"
The Drufle: Given that most of you lived in Cosma, but in the slums, I would imagine not.
The Drufle: It is highly unlikely that you know of the royalty's crown jewels.
Seishi Honekawa: stealing from a palace
Seishi Honekawa: how exciting
Freudicon: "What are you waiting for do you have more questions I am rather busy you know so very busy."
Ezra: "How about this water gem?"
Seishi Honekawa: of course we can just crash our ship on everything
Freudicon: "Oh I do not know about the water gem there are so many strong men in the world it is probably some sort of crazy titan or maybe giant or I do not even know."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Drink mate."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Take a load off."
Freudicon: "Oh no I cannot relax I have too many things to do too many things."
Ezra: "This earth one, I'm not sure I understand that one at all."
Ezra: "A big monster has it, or something?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "We'll tell you about how we vexed Majri."
Bernard Blackbrass:
Diplomacy Check
At-Will • Cha
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + Diplomacy + ChaBonus = 13 + 4 + 2 = 19 »
Bernard Blackbrass: "You can't stand Majri right?"
Freudicon: "Oh no I am quite ok with Majri he is an old friend ok maybe not that good friends since he is trying to kill me but I am ok with him quite well."
Bernard Blackbrass: (I gotta see the roll that leads to something like that.)
Seishi Honekawa: natural 2
Bernard Blackbrass: natural negative one
Seishi Honekawa: "Are they all located on this plane of existence?"
Freudicon: "Oh yes I would of course assume that I mean why would Xarn throw all the gems back into the planes that would be quite counter-productive.
Freudicon: "
* Bernard Blackbrass just pulls out his greataxe.
Bernard Blackbrass: "...Okay..."
* Bernard Blackbrass taps it.
Bernard Blackbrass: "Hey. You listening?"
Targus: "I am indeed, sir. It sounds quite like the old legend that I heard, but with much more detail."
Freudicon: "That voice it sounds familiar are you talking to your axe mr. devil man?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "I am often told that I talk out of my axe yes."
Seishi Honekawa: zing!
Freudicon: "Oh no I did not mean such a thing no I mean why is the old knight master's voice coming from your axe that is a strange thing indeed oh yes."
Bernard Blackbrass: "You know this guy?"
* Bernard Blackbrass is not entirely clear who he is talking to.
Targus: "I do, yes. He is the old royal magician when I was still alive."
Freudicon: "Ah that is Targus good to hear you again friend what have you been up to these past few millenia.
Freudicon: "
Targus: "Mostly being dead, until I came back in this axe for some reason."
Ezra: "It was magic."
Ezra: "Wacky magic."
Targus: "Yes, that."
Ezra: "Freud, any idea about the earth gem?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "What was it like in the afterlife?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Did you see a deity?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "What was she like?"
Ezra: (don't they forget that sort of thing when they return to life)
Bernard Blackbrass: (I only got one rank in Religion man)
Bernard Blackbrass: (I gotta know.)
Bernard Blackbrass: (We got a dead guy in my axe I gotta know man.)
Ezra: (drufles been stolen)
Ezra: (what do we do)
Seishi Honekawa: kill freudicon
Seishi Honekawa: while he's not looking
The Drufle: Sorry I got pulled away.
Bernard Blackbrass: we got like five free rounds
Bernard Blackbrass: fuck
Freudicon: "Oh, the earth gem is probably with a dragon or hellbeast or I don't know big monster?"
Ezra: "So, our options are...Majri, A powerful kingdom, a random guy somewhere, or a giant monster."
Targus: "Oh, being dead is quite peaceful in my afterlife."
Seishi Honekawa: "Let's go to a tropical island instead."
Freudicon: "Yes yes all of the options are quite painful but also your only options or maybe others I don't know go do something!"
Ezra: "Well, who'd back away from a challenge?"
Ezra: "So, what first, everyone?"
Ezra: "I'm taking votes."
Bernard Blackbrass: -See, I wanted him a little more drunk.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Everyone, drink a bit.-
Ezra: -I don't drink.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Then pretend. Drink the water.-
Ezra: again the votes thing
Ezra: come on people
Freudicon: "Yes, voting is good I hear it's a common thing yes."
Seishi Honekawa: "Let's...crash on a tropical island."
Freudicon: "Do I get a vote I do not know if I am involved in this or not."
Seishi Honekawa: NO
Bernard Blackbrass: "Sure."
Seishi Honekawa: yes
Bernard Blackbrass: "But only if you do something for us."
Freudicon: "Ooh I like favors what do I get to do?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "You get to escort us there."
Bernard Blackbrass: "Sounds great right?"
Freudicon: "Oh no I cannot leave the island no I am far too busy to leave here no I would rather not vote."
Seishi Honekawa: "Adventure!"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Take your stuff with us."
Bernard Blackbrass: "We have ample space."
* Bernard Blackbrass looks at Ezra meaningfully.
Ezra: "By the way that giant pyramid outside is ours."
Ezra: "It can fly."
Bernard Blackbrass: -You're gonna use your fuckin' demiplane, birdy.-
Freudicon: "Oh is that what that is it looks like quite a nice pyramid yes wait is that the old emperor's tomb why is that here?"
Bernard Blackbrass: -I am not taking a risk of his papers flying out the window.-
Ezra: -I don't really think he'll leave here...-
Ezra: -I mean he's been here for...centuries.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Yeah now you say that. Oh eff cee.-
* Bernard Blackbrass pulls out the pulsating warhammer.
Bernard Blackbrass: "We may or may not have acquired strange things within said temple."
Freudicon: "Really though I cannot leave this place that easily there is far too much ambient magic here to give up."
Bernard Blackbrass: "And we may have almost certainly acquired said temple."
Freudicon: "Oh you took the old tomb's key I guess you flew it here then hm?"
Ezra: "It was lying on Malor, and it was empty."
Ezra: "Well, kind of."
Freudicon: "Oh Malor hm that is quite unusual I guess Majri's experiments got a little out of hand."
Ezra: "What experiments has he been doing, exactly?"
Freudicon: "I don't know I just assumed he was doing experiments I mean that is what magicians do!"
Ezra: "He fancies himself some kind of Avatar of a flame lord, or something."
Ezra: "Xarn, maybe?"
Freudicon: "Ah he thinks he's Xarn's avatar hm my what a silly suli planar lords don't have avatars that is just silly."
Ezra: "I'm not...really sure what to do next."
Freudicon: "I could pick a spot for you if you want! I am very good at making choices."
Ezra: "I mean, the water one sounds the easiest, but we have no idea where it is."
Freudicon: "Oh, well it's clearly on East Chronis, clearly."
Freudicon: "I mean, four continents, four gems, Xarn is a very orderly planar lord."
Ezra: "Well, I'll vote we go investigate there, then."
Ezra: "And no else wants to vote, it seems."
* Bernard Blackbrass seems to just be focused on something else.
Freudicon: "Good, good!"
Freudicon: "Go to East Chronis then, see what you can find!"
Freudicon: "I imagine you should stay near the waters, the rivers, whatever."
Freudicon: "Do you have any other questions I know many things you know or you can just go I suppose?"
Ezra: "Anything else you think we should know?"
Freudicon: "Well whoever is guarding the gems is very powerful they are probably full of magic and scary things."
Freudicon: "Be very wary of whatever they are because they could totally murder you!"
Ezra: "Well, it's just one man, right?"
Ezra: "That's much better than a dragon."
Freudicon: "Well yes but if he has the gem of water then he must be near the power of a god!"
Ezra: "Or a pissed-off Fire Suli."
Seishi Honekawa: "Dragons *do* take human form sometimes."
Ezra: "Well, if I were a dragon, I'd be a dragon all the time."
Freudicon: "Oh yes me too I would do so as well."
Ezra: "I'd have so much treasure..."
Freudicon: "Yes treasure is good many good things are in treasure!"
Ezra: "And I'd eat people!"
Ezra: "What a life it would be."
Bernard Blackbrass: -Ezra-
Bernard Blackbrass: -please-
Bernard Blackbrass: -explain how your demiplane works-
Bernard Blackbrass: -who can get in, and how can they get out?-
Ezra: -I have to open the entrance, unless you broke out with magic, I guess.-
Ezra: -They have a spell for everything.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -This guy says he can't teleport.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -If we can trap him in we can force him to tell us more.-
Ezra: -Pretty sure he's just telling us everything anyway.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -He's really really not.-
Ezra: -Ask him more then.-
Ezra: or roll a sense motive
Bernard Blackbrass: -He says he likes this guy who's trying to kill him, I don't think he's...-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Ugh.-
Seishi Honekawa: -He's a madman-
Seishi Honekawa: -It's pointless trying to make sense of a madman's thoughts-
Bernard Blackbrass: -That's why you make them do it.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -He'll break.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -We can throw all the superpowered arseholes who can't teleport in there.-
Seishi Honekawa: -Pointless.-
Ezra: -We don't know his capabilities. He could have many other ways of getting out.-
Ezra: -Plus, you know, my things are in there. I got an iron pot in there.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -I'll buy you an iron pot.-
Ezra: -Plus our giant centipede.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -It doesn't mean squat if he can't teleport it. He can keep it.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -We'll have his papers too.-
Bernard Blackbrass: "Hey can we stay a while and read these maps?"
Ezra: you know you can still learn spells from an opposed school
Ezra: they just take up two slots in your spell list
Freudicon: "Maps what maps why?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Just for orientation."
Ezra: "We need to find places the water gem could be, mostly."
Ezra: "I've only got this less detailed map."
Freudicon: "Oh of course here have a world map."
* Freudicon grabs a map from behind him and tosses it on the ground in front of you.
Ezra: "This is, uh, big."
Freudicon: "Well Enoa is a fairly big planet compared to most of the continents!
Freudicon: "
Ezra: (which part is east chronis again)
The Drufle: The eastern part of Chronis, of course.
Ezra: no wait this one has words
Ezra: "Okay, seems East Chronis has two large bits of water in it. Big enough to be on the map, anyway."
Seishi Honekawa: "I expected it to be in an abyss or something."
Ezra: are there any names marked on those bits of water
Ezra: also any towns near them
The Drufle: Not particularly, no.
The Drufle: There are a few small settlements, but the areas around the lakes are giant jungles.
The Drufle: For the most part, the lakes seem empty of civilization.
The Drufle: Rather unusual, now that you think about it.
The Drufle: There are many settlements by the rivers leading from the lakes, however.
Seishi Honekawa: hint hint hint
Ezra: "Now then, I'd say check the biggest one, first. Just because."
Freudicon: "Not a bad idea no not a bad idea at all!"
Freudicon: "The waters in East Chronis are very clean and full of magic sometimes I think I'm not entirely sure I haven't been to East Chronis in a few millenia."
Freudicon: "Either way good luck on killing the crazy god-man person titan giant thing!"
Ezra: "Team, we should prepare before going on this hunt, I think."
Ezra: "Perhaps stock up on useful items, and stuff."
Seishi Honekawa: lets train to level 20
Seishi Honekawa: let us visit the first world and grind on audinos
Bernard Blackbrass: Let us draw more cards.
Seishi Honekawa: no!
The Drufle: No, you are actually fairly well suited for the encounters.
Bernard Blackbrass: -I wonder if I should offer him a card.-
Bernard Blackbrass: (shush)
Ezra: -Pff, he'll know what they are.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -I would if I didn't somehow fear he'd take my deck.-
The Drufle: You can do some training if you want, but it isn't particularly necessary.
Ezra: "Any else we could do to prepare?"
Bernard Blackbrass: "Targus, what do you think?"
Freudicon: "Oh I doubt you could help yourself any more no you have magics and whatnot."
Seishi Honekawa: "We should obtain more wealth."
Targus: "The longer we wait, the more these beasts will grow in power. The sooner the better, I say."
Seishi Honekawa: "Our wealth is very inadequate."
Bernard Blackbrass: -Ezra, if we were to all enter this demiplane-
Bernard Blackbrass: -where would we all end up?-
Bernard Blackbrass: -If we wanted to leave?-
Ezra: -The same place I opened it.-
Ezra: -That's how it's worked before, at least.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -But if you didn't enter, and we all did...-
Bernard Blackbrass: -...does it just follow you?-
Ezra: -I believe it would.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -We have to coordinate that.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -You could sneak a lot of crap in like that.-
Ezra: -Hehe.-
Ezra: -That sounds fun.-
Bernard Blackbrass: -Yeah now we're thinking.-
The Drufle: Should I point out that the demiplane doesn't work like that?
Ezra: well why not
Ezra: how does it work then
The Drufle: The card makes a temporary door in space that opens to the demiplane.
The Drufle: The door cannot be closed with people inside of it, unless the user is inside as well.
The Drufle: That's how I interpreted it at least.
Ezra: hmm what we kill them first
Seishi Honekawa: i just thought ezra cant not enter the demiplane when she activates it
Ezra: then rez them when i take them out again
Ezra: just use a phoenix down
Ezra: does this mean we can't raise our army in there after all
The Drufle: Maybe, I dunno.
The Drufle: I think golurk is right.
The Drufle: I think at least Ezra has to enter the demipilane.
Seishi Honekawa: caw caw
Seishi Honekawa: teehee
Ezra: Hmm, okay then, that sounds right.
Seishi Honekawa: gotta collect them all
Seishi Honekawa: let's get
Ezra: I could still just leave myself, though.
Seishi Honekawa: wait i should be zombying right now
Ezra: then reenter when i need to
Seishi Honekawa: drufle im just gonna go ahead and look up the dead things
Seishi Honekawa: titan centipede
Seishi Honekawa: and giant stag beetles?
The Drufle: Yyyyyyyes?
The Drufle: I need to see exactly what they are again.
Seishi Honekawa: oh and there's the issue of that mystery skeleton
Seishi Honekawa: the dragoncat
The Drufle: Ok, the beetles were Slicer beetles.
The Drufle: From bestiary 2.
Ezra: Dire Boogaloo
Seishi Honekawa: oooh
Seishi Honekawa: ok
The Drufle: And a Titan centipede, yes.
The Drufle: Ignore the fact that I set a CR 9 monster against you guys.
Seishi Honekawa: are we gonna skip to the next day
Ezra: no wait
Seishi Honekawa: thats ok that was a great present
Ezra: I offer Freudicon a piece of chalk.
Seishi Honekawa: 3 drufle
Seishi Honekawa: that was a hreat
Seishi Honekawa: heart
Bernard Blackbrass: That was a threat!
Seishi Honekawa: I drop a candle.
The Drufle: Well, alright.
Seishi Honekawa: i should buy a ton of fish
Bernard Blackbrass: I think up more ways to kidnap Freudicon and steal all his stuff.
Seishi Honekawa: bass specifically
The Drufle: He looks confused but takes the stuff off the ground.
Seishi Honekawa: then i offer it to people
Seishi Honekawa: by dropping the bass
Ezra: fish stink so no
Seishi Honekawa: it only works in written form
Ezra: also dubstep doesn't exist here you fool!!
Ezra: you have to invent it first
Seishi Honekawa: are you sure
Seishi Honekawa: im pretty sure azatas have invented dubstep
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+6 => 5 + 6 = 11
Ezra: there's my knowledge check
Ezra: im -pretty- sure
Seishi Honekawa:
Knowledge Planes Check
At-Will • Int
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + KnowledgePlanes + IntBonus = 11 + 4 + 1 = 16 »
The Drufle: You know of some sort of beat-based music, yes.
The Drufle: It isn't called dubstep though, you're sure.
Ezra: We're done here, aren't we?
The Drufle: Pretty much, yes.
The Drufle: Unless you want to ask more questions.
Ezra: I was hoping he'd give me a laser gun or something
Ezra: but that's probably not going to happen
The Drufle: Nope.
Ezra: yeah no one else is talking lets say our farewells
The Drufle: I was considering having him give you some power, but that would be too easy.
Ezra: can he awaken Hina's hidden power
Freudicon: "Very well it was nice meeting you all yes very nice indeed."
Ezra: like old kai from dbz
Ezra: the power to quadruple crit
The Drufle: No.
The Drufle: That is not how it works.
Ezra: "It was nice meeting you too. Thank you for your hospitality."
Seishi Honekawa: i thought he was gonna make us mythic
Ezra: "We'll see you soon, if we succeed."
Seishi Honekawa: "Send us your finished research."
Seishi Honekawa: you kinky bastard
Freudicon: "Oh yes of course I will tell you everything later!"
The Drufle: Golurk: I was considering that at first, but it seems too early right now.
The Drufle: You'll get them eventually, don't worry.
Ezra: And now we leave.
The Drufle: Excellent!
The Drufle: The party now has a path to go on, and a means to get there.
The Drufle: What will you do?
Ezra: Oh wait I go ask Freud for a bridge
Ezra: im not having river shenanigans again
Seishi Honekawa: centipede bridge yo
Seishi Honekawa: can the two beetles airlift the giant centipede
The Drufle: Oh, right.
The Drufle: Freud has created a bridge for you.
Seishi Honekawa: i have the best strategy
Seishi Honekawa: drop the centipede
Seishi Honekawa: and heal all the damage
Seishi Honekawa: and survivors under it get eaten
Ezra: back to the pyramid
The Drufle: Yep!
The Drufle: Nothing will attack you, shall I just take you there?
Ezra: does any wildlife even live here
The Drufle: Oddly enough, it doesn't seem like it.
The Drufle: It's very quiet outside.
Ezra: "I'm pretty sure he made this based on a picture book he saw."
Ezra: just take us there yes
Seishi Honekawa:
Will Save
Will Roll: « d20 + Will = 10 + 8 = 18 »
The Drufle: ?
Seishi Honekawa: i tried to disbelieve the illusion before departing
Ezra: you can't beat drufle, that DC was 105
Ezra: he'll take us back whether you like it or not
Seishi Honekawa: I will never speak to anyone
Seishi Honekawa: about what the island actually looks like
Seishi Honekawa: I can only muster a vacant stare
The Drufle: Ah, ok.
The Drufle: So, what now?
The Drufle: Will you head straight there?
Seishi Honekawa: let's flash forward a few days
Seishi Honekawa: teehee
Seishi Honekawa: actually i should really see if i cant even revive all these zombies
Seishi Honekawa: *can
Ezra: I would like to stock up on items in a town somewhere
Ezra: somewhere with an alchemists shop perhaps
The Drufle: We can assume you do that, if you'd like.
Seishi Honekawa: skip ALL the tedium
The Drufle: So I don't have to create an entire village and spend a session with you talking to more human pogs.
Ezra: It'd take a while for me to shop for things I imagine so the rest of you can do things during that time
Seishi Honekawa: can we assume i cast restore corpse on the skeleton
The Drufle: Skeleton?
Ezra: He found it on Malor's river
The Drufle: Oh, the catdragon?
The Drufle: Do you have the components?
Ezra: perhaps he could find them in the town
The Drufle: I suppose so.
Ezra: The Town
The Drufle: You'd have to pay for them.
Seishi Honekawa: it doesnt have components
Seishi Honekawa: just magic words and furious gesturing
Ezra: should i irc you what im buying
The Drufle: Yes, sure.
Ezra: actually i need to make some adjustments...
Seishi Honekawa: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/r/restore-corpse
The Drufle: Right, I found the spell.
The Drufle: Yes, go ahead.
Seishi Honekawa: abloobloobloo
The Drufle: So I imagine you can actually tell what it is now?
The Drufle: Sort of?
Seishi Honekawa: this spell isnt flesh to stone, it is a spell that returns flesh to bone
The Drufle: I can describe it to you.
Seishi Honekawa: yes
The Drufle: Or you can roll nature knowledge.
Seishi Honekawa: then tell me hwhat knowledge i should ch-
Seishi Honekawa: i dont have that
Seishi Honekawa: oh so is it an animal
Seishi Honekawa: how boring
The Drufle: Well, what you have is a Medium creature that is fairly reptilian in nature.
The Drufle: It is sleek, with metallic skin.
Seishi Honekawa: "HEY TEKTON"
Seishi Honekawa: "Can you tell what this is?"
The Drufle: It has a long tail and bronzed wings.
Seishi Honekawa: "You're a plant, I'm guessing you know a lot of animals."
Tekton:
Knowledge Nature Check
At-Will • Int
Roll: (GM Only) « d20 + KnowledgeNature + IntBonus = 14 + 5 + 0 = 19 »
Tekton: "its a drake how can you not tell that"
Seishi Honekawa: "What's that?"
Tekton: "its like a dragon but with only two legs"
Tekton: "i think this one is a river drake"
The Drufle: Soooooo are you going to revive it?
The Drufle: Or no?
Seishi Honekawa: yuh huh
Seishi Honekawa: its a babby drak
Seishi Honekawa: wait i should make the calculations first
The Drufle: Yep.
Seishi Honekawa: oh
Seishi Honekawa: river drakes *are* tiny
Seishi Honekawa: how adorable
Seishi Honekawa: and by tiny i mean not large
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+14 => 20 + 14 = 34
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+14 => 3 + 14 = 17
The Drufle: Yeah, you're fine Ezra.
Seishi Honekawa: ddddddesecrate
Ezra: "What are we lookin at."
Ezra: "Oh, a drake."
Ezra: "Looks like a river drake too! But who wouldn't know that instantly?"
Seishi Honekawa: oh boy i dont have enough onyx
Ezra: "I'm back from my shopping."
Ezra: "I'm pretty hungry so I'm going to have a pancake."
Ezra: I eat pancakes in the corner.
The Drufle: Not a bad idea.
The Drufle: You guys do have like, a week's worth of pancakes.
The Drufle: Phil loves cooking.
Seishi Honekawa: im short of 100 gp onyx
Seishi Honekawa: "Did you happen to obtain zome onyx?"
Seishi Honekawa: zome
Ezra: i didn't have the money for anything else
Ezra: we're parked right outside the Town of Supplies so you could go look
Seishi Honekawa: "Then *I* should go shopping as well"
Ezra: I go help her get incredible deals
The Drufle: Yes, you are currently outside of a fairly large town in southern East Chronis.
Seishi Honekawa: incredible!
The Drufle: Just by the coast.
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+14 => 17 + 14 = 31
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+14 => 11 + 14 = 25
Bernard Blackbrass: What are those?
Ezra: I found us a wonderful seaside cottage.
Ezra: Bluff checks
Ezra: we're shopping!
The Drufle: Yeah, you're fine.
Seishi Honekawa: lol im gonna have to cast twice
The Drufle: Your bluff mod is kind of insane, by the way.
Ezra: actually if you get an onyx for cheaper do you have to buy more because you need 100gp worth
Seishi Honekawa: i can only animate in 20 hd batches
Seishi Honekawa: dunno
Ezra: *chew chew*
The Drufle: Yeah, the bluff checks just remove markup prices.
Seishi Honekawa: wiat whats happening right now
The Drufle: They don't make the things cost any less.
Bernard Blackbrass: Does Diplomacy do that?
Ezra: that's +12 btw >:}
The Drufle: Diplomacy or bluff.
The Drufle: I decided that.
Seishi Honekawa: oh boy here we go
Seishi Honekawa: the juggling
Ezra: can i use bluff to make you think i rolled much higher
Ezra: look drufle, they're 20s!
Ezra: all the time
The Drufle: That depends.
The Drufle: Can you roll 20 on a bluff check?
* Ezra rolls: 1d20+14 => 12 + 14 = 26
The Drufle: Hm, I don't think so.
Ezra: dang
Ezra: is juggling how you do necromancy
Seishi Honekawa: yes
Seishi Honekawa: no see im trying to fit all my undead
Seishi Honekawa: i can revive all of them with that extra onyx
Seishi Honekawa: but i cant control all of them with just that spell
Seishi Honekawa: ill have to use other methods
The Drufle: Well, that seems like an issue.
The Drufle: Alternatively, you could not try and revive everything at once.
Seishi Honekawa: you wish
Seishi Honekawa: i have the feat and the spell
Seishi Honekawa: im invincibleeeee
Seishi Honekawa: do i have the onyx now
Seishi Honekawa: im gonna deduct that from my money
The Drufle: Yes, go ahead.
Seishi Honekawa: i should probably desecrate outside
Seishi Honekawa: oh boy this is fun
Seishi Honekawa: the command undead spell lasts for only days at a time
Seishi Honekawa: i should probably keep count
The Drufle: Ooh, interesting.
Seishi Honekawa: lest we end up getting eaten at night by an out of control zombie
Seishi Honekawa: teehee
The Drufle: So, anything else?
The Drufle: Are you just doing stuff for the zombies?
Seishi Honekawa: yeah
The Drufle: Well, if we won't do anything else tonight, maybe you should just have that done for next time?
The Drufle: Unless we want to actually go and start doing stuff in East Chronis.
Ezra: well, it's not that late, is it
Seishi Honekawa: urgh this is complicated
Seishi Honekawa: afk
The Drufle: No, but sneaky seems to have fallen asleep and golurk is doing lots of things.
Seishi Honekawa: actually not afk
Seishi Honekawa: away from maptool
The Drufle: So maybe we should reconvene when satona is actually here and then you can start tackling the Water guardian together?
Ezra: We'll have to investigate first
The Drufle: Of course.
Ezra: i doubt we'd just run into him
Ezra: We head to the larger river, and look for a settlement nearvy, maybe
Ezra: nearby*
The Drufle: Good point.
The Drufle: I'm sure that if the water guardian is in the area, people would know about it.
The Drufle: I'm sure someone who has the power of pure elemental primeval water wouldnt be that hard to miss
The Drufle: Or would be, I mean.
Ezra: Right so we do some interviews next time then
Ezra: or i guess now? but no one else is here
The Drufle: Yeah, that was my point.
The Drufle: Place seems a little sparse.
Ezra: of course we can't go anywhere until the duck signs us off
The Drufle: Of course.
The Drufle: But I feel wrong using Jikai myself, so let's wait until Golurk returns.
Jikai: JIKAI
Jikai: THE GUARDIAN OF THE RIVER,
Jikai: THE LEVIATHAN OF THE RAIN: KYOGRE
The Drufle: Excellent.
The Drufle: Good night everybody!
Jikai: WILL THE PARTY SURVIVE???
The Drufle: Eh, probably.
The Drufle: Now, shoo, all of you.
Jikai: OF COURSE THEY WILL
Jikai: SEE YOU NEXT TIME
