Category: Chapter 4: The Hunt for Sercate

Let’s go with Drayven’s proposed scenario for simplicity and see where we get… Sunday October 2nd, 402 (8:55 p.m.) [17]: [At this point it’s assumed everyone has memorized the spells necessary to execute the plan, hence the 4+ shift forward in time – he’s mentioned what spells he’s considering, but which ones will Drayven memorize […]

Sunday October 2nd, 402 (2:27 p.m.) [17]: [As Kane has mentioned, Quinn will be present for the planning stage of the evening, but he’ll need to leave an hour after sunset to meet Cyralix as he was instructed so, presumably, before any real action happens. The meeting point shouldn’t be too far away since the party […]

Sunday October 2nd, 402 (1:22 p.m.) [17]: Chardes blanches when he hears Ydoran’s suggestions. “Oh, no, I don’t think we can do that, if you were to show you had state power, whether through deputization or association with the city guard, that could lead to a scandal! Even our meeting here can’t be mentioned beyond […]

Sunday October 2nd, 402 (1:37 p.m.) [17]:      Hearing that the stranger has not only picked up on his not-so-subtle message but is receptive to it, the sot’s eyebrows bob briefly and he leans back in his chair with poise and an air of pride. “Would you believe I got not two coppers for […]

Sunday October 2nd, 402 (1:22 p.m.) [17]:      After a long wait in the outer vestibule under close scrutiny by three neatly-dressed security guards, the door to the Commissioner’s office opens and Caleb and Ydoran are greeted by Sir Chardes himself, a man small in stature and admirably fighting a losing battle against hair […]

Just a quick one to answer Kane’s email, I’ve made a few assumptions, hopefully that’s okay, let me know if you want any minor revisions, Kane… Wednesday September 28th, 402 (9:10 a.m.) [14]:      “I can’t speak for everyone,” Caleb answers [to Quinn’s request] in a voice strained with uncertainty and concern, “And when […]

Wednesday September 28th, 402 (9:08 a.m.) [14]:      Caleb shows some relief when Quinn explains that he most likely has not been followed and the group is not in danger. And when he further explains the evolution of his religion, Caleb shrugs and says, “It sounds like your disappearance was guided by a higher […]

Wednesday September 28th, 402 (9:05 a.m.) [14]: [Yep, for rings and amulets of protection it’s fairly typical that the bonus that applies to AC also applies to saving throws as well. On the matter of the other magical items mentioned in that post, it’s up to everyone else, of course, but I’d make the following […]

You’re absolutely right, Ryan, both about the intention of that passage and my messy use of pronouns. In other words, ‘that city’ should really say ‘that region’ (i.e. Hehkhastia). Also, I know I owe you an email or two, I’ve been falling behind on things and it’s been a busier than expected work week – […]

Well done on the name, Ryan! The Whelk is a fine moniker for a ship. Dragon Magazine has a good article on the ecology of the pseudodragon, page 78 of the magazine. No, probably no time to do anything about NWPs before the party sets sail, unfortunately. Caleb’s in the same position with his weapon […]
