[2025/08/21 14:03] Andreas: hi kittens 👋🤖
[2025/08/21 14:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, seems we're all here, not sure Martina will make it but she missed much, and Andreas is here so let's crack on
[2025/08/21 14:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: hiya Andreas :)
[2025/08/21 14:04] Sonja Bikergrrl: I do believe you'd more or less solved the mystery of the feud between a druid and a necromancer and got some Clues that may or may not be vital later
[2025/08/21 14:05] Andreas: 👀
[2025/08/21 14:05] Sonja Bikergrrl: and you managed to retrieve the bush with glowing berries that Al Cohol mentioned you'd need. Although, you've yet to find the big giants' Sun Bush, characterized by it's brightly glowing berries.
[2025/08/21 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: I'm sure it'll turn up.
[2025/08/21 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: And you're on the way back to the town, when you ran into your little friend....
[2025/08/21 14:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: As the players approach, the leprechaun appears with a twinkle in his eye and a mischievous grin, tipping his tiny hat playfully. "Ah, well met again, my adventurous friends! What delightful mischief do ye seek this time? If ye could spare a wee bit o’ tobacco or a drop of the good stuff, I’d be more than happy to share a tale or two of hidden treasures and elusive rainbows! What say ye?"
[2025/08/21 14:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: And with that reminder and recap out of the way GGGGGGGGRRRRRREEEEEEEETTTTTIIIIINNNGGGSSS Adventurers, other players get DMs who are dressed in robes and pointy hats, you get me sitting here butt naked.
[2025/08/21 14:07] Sapphire: Te'ala checks how good the wine in her wineskins is
[2025/08/21 14:07] Mecha: /me cheers and applauds
[2025/08/21 14:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: judging by your hallucination of the state of dress of your DM, it's probably quite good.
[2025/08/21 14:10] Andreas: /me goes through is pocket and finds a one gold coin ... looks at the leprechaun "maybe you could with us good luck" and offers the coin to leprechaun
[2025/08/21 14:11] Sapphire: "I do have at least some wine good enough to share, if you'll forgive me my sense of overseas taste."
[2025/08/21 14:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: The leprechaun takes the coin, with a sly smirk. "Aye, a gift, but aren't I to be offering ye gold?" He chuckles
[2025/08/21 14:12] Andreas: /me "right now me need more luck than gold" grins
[2025/08/21 14:12] Mecha: Lahli shrugs."Sorry buddy, but I am fresh out.. I think. Lemme look." She pauses."I thought you only gave gold fi we caught you or soemthing?
[2025/08/21 14:12] Sonja Bikergrrl: The leprechaun smiles to Te'ala. "Normally I'd have a slightly stronger tipple but I'll no say no."
[2025/08/21 14:13] Sapphire: "An evening of good drinks and shared tales is a catch of it's own, no?" She suggests to Lahli, before opening her wineskin to share.
[2025/08/21 14:13] Sonja Bikergrrl: The leprechaun twirls his shamrock, a mischievous grin spreading across his face as he takes a large (for him) sip, then, he speaks: "Ah, me fine friends! If ye dare to indulge in a bit of playful pondering, I present ye with this riddle: I’m always running, but I stay in place; you’ll look at me daily to keep up the pace. What am I? Solve it, and perhaps a pot of gold shall be yours!"
[2025/08/21 14:14] Mecha: A watch
[2025/08/21 14:14] Andreas: /me nods
[2025/08/21 14:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: The leprechaun gives Lahli a grin. "A clock, but, a watch is close enough, aye?" He takes another sip and says "Ah, me fine friend! If ye seek a puzzle to tease yer mind, listen close to this wee riddle I’ve crafted: 'Humble and round, I’m dug from the earth, mashed or fried, I’m a treat of great worth. What am I? What am I?' Now, take a moment and let yer thoughts wander, what treasure does this riddle hold for ye?"
[2025/08/21 14:16] Mecha: Po-Ta-Toes, boil 'em mash 'em stick 'em in a stew
[2025/08/21 14:17] Mecha: Damn it.. You didn't hear that.. Just crazy little Lahli
[2025/08/21 14:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: Leprechaun: “Ah, me fine friend! Ye figgered it out. Now try this one, this'll stump ye. If ye or any bold adventurer wish to find the treasure I protect, ye must first solve a riddle I hold dear. Listen closely, for it goes like this: 'I’m tricky and quick, with gold I hide, you’ll never catch me, no matter how you’ve tried. Who am I? Who am I?' Can ye unravel the words and name this crafty sprite?”
[2025/08/21 14:18] Andreas: /me grins at Lahli, "well done potato"
[2025/08/21 14:18] Sapphire: Te'ala ponders, thinking.... "That sounds very like Leprechauns in general to me."
[2025/08/21 14:19] Sonja Bikergrrl: Leprechaun: "Och, ye've bested me again! I s'pose it's only fair to honor yer wit! With this reward, just remember, the luck of a leprechaun's gold can turn both ways, so use it wisely! But give it a lash, aye? Maybe ye finds friends... or foes." He beckons you closer.
[2025/08/21 14:20] Mecha: Lahli leans in closer
[2025/08/21 14:21] Sonja Bikergrrl: The leprechaun points to a tiny trail off the road. "Follow that trail, not half a mile, and ye'll find a mystery, and maybe, a fine reward."
[2025/08/21 14:22] Sapphire: "I thank you, kind sir, and hope our answers have been entertaining."
[2025/08/21 14:22] Mecha: Lahli smiles."Sounds good to me, thank you :)"
[2025/08/21 14:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: The leprechaun takes off his hat and gives a bow, before backing into the trees and vanishing.
[2025/08/21 14:23] Andreas: /me "Leprechauns are as well very good tricksters with good sense of humour" looks at Leprechaun and smiles "Thank you"
[2025/08/21 14:23] Mecha: Lahli looks Te'ala."I say we go that way..." She pauses."You coming Barbecue sauce?"
[2025/08/21 14:25] Mecha: *The barbecue sauce thing is to Andreas*
[2025/08/21 14:26] Andreas: /me "the sauce goes well with potatoes" smiles at Lahli
[2025/08/21 14:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: So, along the path?
[2025/08/21 14:26] Andreas: /me nods
[2025/08/21 14:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: The forest is dense and increasingly foggy. You are about half a mile along the path when you see....
[2025/08/21 14:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nestled deep within a fog-laden forest, the dilapidated remains of an ancient mill creak and groan under the weight of time. Its wooden structure, with gaping holes in the roof and walls, is entwined with ivy and moss, while the nearby river flows sluggishly, its once-clear waters now dark and murky. The air is filled with a faint, haunting melody that seems to echo from the upper floors. Broken machinery lies scattered among the weeds, and remnants of old grain sacks add to the ghostly atmosphere. A few fluttering feathers and the skeletal remains of earlier victims litter the area, warning adventurers from daring to explore the mill and navigate its treacherous grounds.
[2025/08/21 14:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: And you all get to make a Saving Throw! Roll d20, everyone
[2025/08/21 14:28] D20: Mecha rolls 1
[2025/08/21 14:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: crit fail
[2025/08/21 14:29] Mecha: Aaaaand Lahli gets Tetanus just from looking at it
[2025/08/21 14:29] D20: Sapphire rolls 7
[2025/08/21 14:29] Sapphire: do we know the kind of saving throw?
[2025/08/21 14:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Fail.
[2025/08/21 14:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Save vs Spells
[2025/08/21 14:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas? Save the day!
[2025/08/21 14:30] D20: Andreas rolls 19
[2025/08/21 14:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: See? That's what I'm talking about :)
[2025/08/21 14:31] Andreas: ;D
[2025/08/21 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: Te'ala and Lahli see.... an enchanting beauty, with shimmering emerald feathers cascading down her back and sharp, silver-tipped wings that glint in the sunlight, she appears quite graceful. Her striking, luminescent green eyes seem to twinkle with mischief as she smiles, revealing pearly-white teeth as she sings a delicate, melodic song. Her form is lithe and agile, with a posture that is curiously inviting. The party sees not only her captivating appearance but also a warm, inviting aura surrounding her, as if she embodies the gentle breeze and the soft songs of the forest, drawing them into her charming presence, making them feel an undeniable trust and fascination.
[2025/08/21 14:31] Sapphire: wings of feature or dragonfly style?
[2025/08/21 14:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: And Andreas sees: a sinister creature, perched menacingly on a jagged rock, silhouetted against the sky. This creature boasts dark, mottled plumage, blending shades of deep emerald and charcoal, with sharp, glistening feathers that resemble shards of broken glass. Her face is twisted into a cruel smile, revealing razor-sharp teeth, while her piercing crimson eyes gleam with a malevolent intelligence. Long, tattered wings unfurl behind her, resembling shadows shrouded in the mist, and her talons are elongated and wickedly curved, glinting ominously. Dressed in tattered remnants of fine silks and adorned with grotesque trinkets made from the bones of previous victims, the figure exudes an aura of dark enchantment, luring all with a seductive yet dangerous allure.
[2025/08/21 14:32] Sapphire: "Pleasant evening, miss," Te'ala defaults to, stunned by the impressive visage.
[2025/08/21 14:33] Mecha: "If this is a dream and any of you wake me I will destroy something."
[2025/08/21 14:33] Andreas: /me how big is the creature?
[2025/08/21 14:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: She smiles and beckons you closer. "Come, come closer," she says, in a soothing, friendly tone of voice.
[2025/08/21 14:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas: You see a 6' tall slightly wizened and rather feral looking creature beckoning, with surprisingly long and rather sharp talons
[2025/08/21 14:34] Sapphire: ( Te'ala can see the skulls too, right? )
[2025/08/21 14:34] Mecha: Lahli takes a single step closer."So what brings you to a place like this?"
[2025/08/21 14:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: (No.)
[2025/08/21 14:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: The creature keeps beckoning. "Come, closer, I'll show you, you need to be here to see it properly."
[2025/08/21 14:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas: you hear her screeching like a... well, you can probably guess
[2025/08/21 14:36] Andreas: /me pulls the glowing potion from his pocket behind his back and opens it and then pulls out his dagger and drops few drops on the blade behind his back "Hi cutie, what's your name" smirks at the creature
[2025/08/21 14:36] Sonja Bikergrrl: The potions' glow is noticeably fading.
[2025/08/21 14:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: Creature: "My name is immaterial. Won't you come closer and join me for dinner?"
[2025/08/21 14:38] Mecha: Lahli takes another step forward."Okay, um I'm Lahli, and I already at recently but it would be rude to say no..."
[2025/08/21 14:38] Sapphire: "A pleasure, Immaterial. I'm known as Te'ala."
[2025/08/21 14:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: What's Andreas going to do?
[2025/08/21 14:38] Andreas: /me looks at Lahli "speaking of dinner, you should have a potatoes and bbq sauce, shouldn't you?"
[2025/08/21 14:39] Mecha: *Looks over at Sapphire* A dad joke? Really?
[2025/08/21 14:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, Andreas gets to roll initiative, lowest goes first
[2025/08/21 14:40] Mecha: Lahli looks to Andreas. "Don't mess this up. I havent seen a lot of cute women.. She might be single." *By the maker this one is really amping this up.*
[2025/08/21 14:40] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 17
[2025/08/21 14:40] Sapphire: ( It was actually intended more as an Oddyseus reference, when he calls himself Nobody )
[2025/08/21 14:41] Mecha: *Oh yeah, forgot about that possibility.*
[2025/08/21 14:42] Andreas: /me walks closer the "cute" creature "we don't have much to offer, but what's for dinner?"
[2025/08/21 14:42] Sonja Bikergrrl: Roll d20, Andreas, to find out ;)
[2025/08/21 14:43] D20: Andreas rolls 8
[2025/08/21 14:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: "What's for dinner? You-hoo....!"
[2025/08/21 14:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: The creature attacks Te'ala and Lahli! Andreas goes first.
[2025/08/21 14:45] Andreas: /me points finger behind the creature "And did you invited those either" slightly shouting with very surprised voice. / Did the creature turned it's head?
[2025/08/21 14:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: What's Andreas going to do? (Save the day, hopefully!)
[2025/08/21 14:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: No, she's too busy swiping at Te'ala...
[2025/08/21 14:45] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 2
[2025/08/21 14:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: and Lahli...
[2025/08/21 14:45] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 12
[2025/08/21 14:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: well, that achieved nothing.
[2025/08/21 14:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: Te'ala and Lahli can make new saving throws, +4 bonus.
[2025/08/21 14:46] D20: Mecha rolls 4
[2025/08/21 14:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me facepalms
[2025/08/21 14:47] Mecha: *Blame the dice*
[2025/08/21 14:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire will make her save.
[2025/08/21 14:47] Mecha: Lahli smiles at the swipe attempt."Ohh you're into that? Not really my thing but the safeword is bugbear."
[2025/08/21 14:48] D20: Sapphire rolls 9
[2025/08/21 14:48] Sonja Bikergrrl: That's a -scrape- of a save if I ever saw one.
[2025/08/21 14:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas, Sapphire, you both see the creature for what it is - a harpy!
[2025/08/21 14:49] Andreas: /me finds a good angle and attacks the creature from the back, trying to stab it into the back, aiming at the back of the creatures head with the dagger flavored with the glowing potion.
[2025/08/21 14:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas first, then Sapphire, what do you do?
[2025/08/21 14:49] D20: Andreas rolls 7
[2025/08/21 14:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas: roll d20, +4 bonus
[2025/08/21 14:50] Andreas: I hope it's gonna be hit at least
[2025/08/21 14:50] Sapphire: "Bewitcher!" She shouts, before gesturing with her free hand and trying to wrap the harpy in Faerie Fire. "begone with your mind-snaring tricks!"
[2025/08/21 14:50] Sonja Bikergrrl: damn... that was SO close... but sadly you get no ceegar... and the harpy twitches aside at the last minute.
[2025/08/21 14:50] Andreas: /me bish
[2025/08/21 14:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: You've cast Faerie Fire and haven't rested since x_x
[2025/08/21 14:51] Mecha: Hey don't call her that. "We're gonna get married, and you will be there and The traveller will be there... and who else?"
[2025/08/21 14:52] Sapphire: oooof, um... what do I still have in the tank?
[2025/08/21 14:52] Mecha: *Figure since this one crit failed at first Lahli is completely smitten*
[2025/08/21 14:52] Sonja Bikergrrl: locate, silence... or just bray it with something
[2025/08/21 14:52] Sapphire: Actually, *Silence* sounds perfect for this situation
[2025/08/21 14:53] Sapphire: since the harpy seems to be singing us
[2025/08/21 14:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: The screeches and bellows and sounds of daggers being ... doing whatever daggers do... and the scrapes of claws on armour suddenly fade away!
[2025/08/21 14:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: Harpy claws Andreas
[2025/08/21 14:54] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 20

[2025/08/21 15:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: Lahli cannot understand why everyone is attacking her new-found love interest.
[2025/08/21 15:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me pauses for Sapphire and the D20

[2025/08/21 15:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: what you gonna do?
[2025/08/21 15:08] Sapphire: does there seem to be anything useful in the area around this harpy's roost?
[2025/08/21 15:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: Trees, broken bits of discarded farm equipment. Bones, leaves.
[2025/08/21 15:08] Sapphire: Shield up and trying to club the claws of this harpy

[2025/08/21 15:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: We have a hit! Roll d4
[2025/08/21 15:15] Andreas: fuck this
[2025/08/21 15:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: 1 point of damage
[2025/08/21 15:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: it's a start
[2025/08/21 15:15] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire!
[2025/08/21 15:16] Sonja Bikergrrl: (And then Mecha)
[2025/08/21 15:17] Sapphire: (checks what spells they have in the tank)
[2025/08/21 15:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: (Locate)
[2025/08/21 15:17] Sapphire: Locate only? ddang
[2025/08/21 15:17] Sapphire: and we're level 4 ?
[2025/08/21 15:17] Sonja Bikergrrl: 5.
[2025/08/21 15:18] Sapphire: ah, and i spent warp wood somewhere else too
[2025/08/21 15:18] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mmhmm
[2025/08/21 15:20] Sapphire: "Leave us be! Or hunt livestock!" she shouts, before swinging her club again
[2025/08/21 15:20] D20: Sapphire rolls 16
[2025/08/21 15:20] Sonja Bikergrrl: Now we're sucking diesel! D6
[2025/08/21 15:22] D8: Sapphire rolls 6
[2025/08/21 15:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: \o/
[2025/08/21 15:22] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha, you can attack or do something
[2025/08/21 15:23] Mecha: Lahli is going to bring out the lightning pipe and fire it at her."I think we should break up."
[2025/08/21 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: oh boy
[2025/08/21 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, +3 to hit
[2025/08/21 15:23] D20: Mecha rolls 3
[2025/08/21 15:23] Sonja Bikergrrl: -.-
[2025/08/21 15:24] Mecha: /me faceplants on the table
[2025/08/21 15:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: The bolt of lightning ZIPS right past the harpy and slams into a tree, causing a great explosion of bits of bark. Leaves loosened by the impact flutter down.
[2025/08/21 15:24] Sonja Bikergrrl: Harpy attacks Te'ala and Lahli
[2025/08/21 15:24] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 14
[2025/08/21 15:24] D20: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 12
[2025/08/21 15:25] D4: Sonja Bikergrrl rolls 3
[2025/08/21 15:25] Sonja Bikergrrl: 3 points of raking damage for Te'ala
[2025/08/21 15:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: End of combat round, back to the top... it's looking like being a tense comabt! Andreas!
[2025/08/21 15:26] Sapphire: I have what, 17 hp?
[2025/08/21 15:26] Andreas: /me tries to stab that "cutie" again, wherever it's close
[2025/08/21 15:26] D20: Andreas rolls 8
[2025/08/21 15:26] Sapphire: 6+5+3 is... 14 ?
[2025/08/21 15:26] Sonja Bikergrrl: (14)
[2025/08/21 15:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: Damn. What is with the dice tonight? The harpy dodges that thrust easily
[2025/08/21 15:27] Sonja Bikergrrl: Sapphire!
[2025/08/21 15:27] Sapphire: how much damage have we landed?
[2025/08/21 15:28] Sapphire: we might need to run
[2025/08/21 15:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: Not quite enough!
[2025/08/21 15:28] Sapphire: gah, she's a flyer!
[2025/08/21 15:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: It's badly injured. And yes, you'll find it hard to outrun a flying creature
[2025/08/21 15:28] Sapphire: Ok, backing up, pulling a rope from my pack, and trying to lasso her wings so she can't fight so well
[2025/08/21 15:28] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2025/08/21 15:29] D20: Sapphire rolls 20
[2025/08/21 15:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Finally, a 20... just not in a combat move. You lasso the harpy; you now have her by her neck. Enjoy!
[2025/08/21 15:30] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mecha!
[2025/08/21 15:30] Mecha: Gonna try shooting again
[2025/08/21 15:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20, +3 bonus
[2025/08/21 15:31] D20: Mecha rolls 16
[2025/08/21 15:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: roll d8
[2025/08/21 15:31] D8: Mecha rolls 6
[2025/08/21 15:31] Sonja Bikergrrl: with a loud agonized "GGGRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" the harpy is illuminated with flashing blue light, and dies in a fit of agony.
[2025/08/21 15:32] Sapphire: She's Silenced
[2025/08/21 15:32] Sonja Bikergrrl: Meanwhile, Te'ala is holding a rope attached to the harpy, and gets shocked for....
[2025/08/21 15:32] Sapphire: or was
[2025/08/21 15:32] Sapphire: shocked??!?!
[2025/08/21 15:32] Mecha: *It was very quiet agony*
[2025/08/21 15:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: ....no, that'd be -too- mean, and I want you alive and ready for the big boss fight ;)
[2025/08/21 15:33] Sonja Bikergrrl: The harpy is now an ex harpy.
[2025/08/21 15:33] Sapphire: .....this was only an Elite
[2025/08/21 15:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: Anyone want to search the body?
[2025/08/21 15:34] Mecha: I'm sorry, It's not me.. It's you."
[2025/08/21 15:34] Mecha: And Lahli will because of their history
[2025/08/21 15:34] Sapphire: Te'ala is likely to search the roost-nest first
[2025/08/21 15:34] Sonja Bikergrrl: About her neck: a rope lasso
[2025/08/21 15:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: And: a gold chain glimmers in the sunlight, the centerpiece of this ornament is a deep crimson ruby pendant, shaped like a teardrop and glowing with a faint red light. It looks cracked... ready to break
[2025/08/21 15:35] Sonja Bikergrrl: Nothing to find, Te'ala, but bones
[2025/08/21 15:37] Sapphire: any notable bones?
[2025/08/21 15:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: Hard to say, they're all filthy and well gnawed.
[2025/08/21 15:37] Mecha: taking the rope off because it is is te'alas and then taking the gold chain and ornament.
[2025/08/21 15:37] Sonja Bikergrrl: What about the pendant?
[2025/08/21 15:38] Mecha: Pendant too.
[2025/08/21 15:38] Sonja Bikergrrl: What are you going to do with it?
[2025/08/21 15:38] Mecha: put it in a pouch for now. Only a dope would wear something without getting it examined
[2025/08/21 15:39] Sonja Bikergrrl: Do you want to look at it more closely?
[2025/08/21 15:40] Mecha: Sure. Could hurt but at this point why not
[2025/08/21 15:40] Sonja Bikergrrl: The cracked ruby pendant's surface is marred by jagged fractures that catch the light in ominous glimmers. The deep crimson hue appears dulled and faded, hinting at a history steeped in struggles and secrets. Within the confines of the pendant, a shadowy form stirs, resembling the silhouette of a pair of wings, dark and ethereal, moving slightly as if a trapped spirit or dark entity resides within. The air around the pendant thrums with latent energy, suggesting that while the ruby may appear fragile, it holds a potent magic that defies its seemingly fragile nature, waiting for the right moment to be unleashed.
[2025/08/21 15:41] Mecha: Um... Te'ala.. andreas.. You should look at this!
[2025/08/21 15:42] Sapphire: After a fruitless search, Te'ala returns to check out what Lahli is looking at. "What did you.....huh." She considers this. "Almost like some exotic form of egg, but as a gemstone?"
[2025/08/21 15:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: A cracked gemstone, no less!
[2025/08/21 15:43] Sonja Bikergrrl: Right pressure in the right place, it'll crack like an egg!
[2025/08/21 15:43] Mecha: Yeahhhhh I'm no genius but I think the smart thing would be to give it to you Te
[2025/08/21 15:45] Sonja Bikergrrl: And what will Te'ala do with it?
[2025/08/21 15:46] Andreas: /me pulls the magic potion and passes it to Te'ala
[2025/08/21 15:46] Sapphire: "Oh?" She looks at the potion
[2025/08/21 15:46] Sonja Bikergrrl: You recognize this potion... it's new moon water.
[2025/08/21 15:47] Mecha: Lahli boops Te casting cure light wounds
[2025/08/21 15:47] Sonja Bikergrrl: d8, Mecha
[2025/08/21 15:47] D8: Mecha rolls 5
[2025/08/21 15:49] Sapphire: Te'ala shivers, checking their injuries to see if it heals back with flesh and skin or with plant and moss-matter
[2025/08/21 15:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: Back as you were... just... getting worse... noticeably, now
[2025/08/21 15:49] Sonja Bikergrrl: And what do you do with the gemstone?
[2025/08/21 15:50] Sapphire: So, a mixture.
[2025/08/21 15:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: ?
[2025/08/21 15:51] Sapphire: Does there seem to be obvious magic coming off the gemstone? "She was wearing it on her neck. That seems important."
[2025/08/21 15:51] Sonja Bikergrrl: Hard to say. It seems to have something shadowy moving inside, though.
[2025/08/21 15:53] Mecha: If possible Lahli is going to boop Andreas for cure light wounds as well.
[2025/08/21 15:53] Sonja Bikergrrl: d8
[2025/08/21 15:54] D8: Mecha rolls 3
[2025/08/21 15:54] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me waits, meanwhile, for Sapphire
[2025/08/21 15:55] Andreas: /me looks at Lahli "bbq sauce .... " smiles with that type of hard smile, when it's genuine but not easy to smile
[2025/08/21 15:56] Mecha: I thought you were barbecue sauce and I was now potato
[2025/08/21 15:56] Sapphire: "One of us should probably wear it, in case it hatches."
[2025/08/21 15:56] Sapphire: Te'ala puts it on if no one objects
[2025/08/21 15:56] Sonja Bikergrrl: It's a gemstone.
[2025/08/21 15:56] Sapphire: on a cord?
[2025/08/21 15:57] Sonja Bikergrrl: Mmhmm... are you sure you want to wear it?
[2025/08/21 15:58] Sapphire: based on my observations
[2025/08/21 15:58] Sapphire: how wise does this idea seem?
[2025/08/21 15:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: Not overly.
[2025/08/21 15:58] Sonja Bikergrrl: And based on what you were told, even less wise
[2025/08/21 16:00] Sapphire: right. Wrapping it up in several layers of cloth instead
[2025/08/21 16:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: -.-
[2025/08/21 16:00] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay. And back to town?
[2025/08/21 16:01] Mecha: Yeah, we are all gonna need rest and food.
[2025/08/21 16:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: Who's leading?
[2025/08/21 16:01] Mecha: Lahli will
[2025/08/21 16:01] Sonja Bikergrrl: d20
[2025/08/21 16:01] D20: Mecha rolls 3
[2025/08/21 16:02] Sonja Bikergrrl: It's a looooooong slog back to the Hook Line & Sinker, and you push open the door and stride on in. You've earnt a good cool ale, and Al is at the bar, polishing a glass, grinning as always
[2025/08/21 16:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: Who's second?
[2025/08/21 16:03] Sapphire: Te'ala taking up the rear
[2025/08/21 16:03] Sonja Bikergrrl: That leaves Andreas to roll a d20
[2025/08/21 16:05] D20: Andreas rolls 10
[2025/08/21 16:05] Andreas: 0_0
[2025/08/21 16:06] Sonja Bikergrrl: Andreas is aware of something not quite right... a big black mass that is falling from the ceiling. He darts aside, just in time!
[2025/08/21 16:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: Te'ala is last and.... gets covered in hot sticky tar, from head to foot, with sticky blobs of tar splashing far and wide. After a few moments, a mass of feathers flutters down, sticking to the tar that coats Te'ala.
[2025/08/21 16:07] D20: Sapphire rolls 9
[2025/08/21 16:07] Sonja Bikergrrl: Al cackles with laughter. "Ha! Ha ha! Well, it seems you've taken 'fashion statement' to a whole new level! Next time, might I suggest a less… sticky choice? Ha ha ha!"
[2025/08/21 16:08] Sapphire: "Gaahhh!" She shouts, trying to scrape the gooey stuff off. Is it hot enough to be damaging?
[2025/08/21 16:08] Mecha: Lahli looks surprised at this..."This is.. Not one of mine..."
[2025/08/21 16:08] Sonja Bikergrrl: No, but, you'll be hours scraping that off...
[2025/08/21 16:09] Andreas: /me "something is shitting on you ..." looks at Te'ala
[2025/08/21 16:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: And that's the end of Chapter Five. We'll pick up Chapter Six after the holiday - which will be the thrilling conclusion to this story ;D
[2025/08/21 16:09] Sapphire: Te'ala grabs the bucket and chucks it at Andreas
[2025/08/21 16:09] Sonja Bikergrrl: Don't miss it... the Big Reveal is coming :D
[2025/08/21 16:09] Andreas: chapter 5, covered in shits, what an ending =)
[2025/08/21 16:10] Sonja Bikergrrl: okay, got to run, sorry, but I'm up in four and half hours
[2025/08/21 16:11] Sonja Bikergrrl: /me tries not to giggle -too- loudly at Sapphire encased in hot sticky tar...
