[20:27] <@GWRD> Our journey resumes on the morning of the 26th day since the destruction of the Jenivere. The survivors and those they have found on the way, are presently following the shoreline after leaving behind the cannibal camp and its lighthouse behind. [20:28] <@GWRD> Untold horrors, and crabs await, as the come across another shipwreck, this one off shore. 06[20:28] * @Ptolamir looks out onto the water. [20:28] <@GWRD> As they figure out if they want to brave the choppy seas to explore it, this session resumes. 11[20:28] <@Theon_Tokko> (Mage/Tol: How much private storage space would you need do you think (even if you dont' think you'll use it) Jus' so I can establish a base quota) [20:28] <@GWRD> Game on 06[20:28] * @Ptolamir looks out onto the water. [20:28] <@GWRD> (Not much) 11[20:28] <@Theon_Tokko> (1gb tops?) [20:29] <@GWRD> (On my Google Drive (which includes e-mail storage), I'm only using 0.82 GB, and I've had this thing for years.) [20:30] <@Ptolamir> (not much) [20:33] <@GWRD> A solitary ship lies capsized on one of the smaller islands that juts out a few hundred feet from shore. [20:33] <Janken> “I can't get to it.” 06[20:33] * Orzady looks from the beach to the ship and back. [20:33] <Orzady> “Nope.” [20:33] <Valio> “I will not risk the trip. And we lost resources the last time we tried to build something.” [20:35] <Darenel> “even if we find anything there we would have a hard time getting it back here” 11[20:36] <@Theon_Tokko> (set the quota to 1gb… I have unlimited storage now so it doesn't really matter) 06[20:36] * Valio marks the wreck on the map and prepares to keep going. 06[20:36] * Orzady sits down [20:37] <Darenel> “We should try to get some of our equipment from the cannibals.” 03[20:38] * Tolmanss (Tolman@c50aa136.dyn.f88a4073.net.hmsk) has joined #grovewood [20:38] <Valio> “We need more weapons before we go back there. I'm still trying to fashion some javelins and spears, but I have yet to find decent materials.” 02[20:39] * Tolmanss (Tolman@c50aa136.dyn.f88a4073.net.hmsk) Quit (Remote host closed the connection) 03[20:39] * Tolmanss (Tolman@c50aa136.dyn.f88a4073.net.hmsk) has joined #grovewood 03[20:40] * Tolmanss is now known as Ptolamir_ [20:41] <@GWRD> The sea quietly laps against the shoreline as Orzady sits on a smooth rock. [20:42] <Darenel> (3 2 1 and the smooth rock turns out to be another crab) [20:42] <Ptolamir_> (sorry about comp switching) [20:42] <@GWRD> (Suddenly Orzady is impaled as two giant pincers come crashing out of the smooth sand, plunging violently into his chest and skull) [20:44] <Orzady> (are you sure we're not in Austrailia?) [20:45] <@GWRD> (Continuing on or hanging out at the beach) [20:46] <Darenel> (i would go inland a bit and try find supplies for wpns and then try to double back to do a payback round to cannibals ) [20:47] <Valio> “Let's continue along the jungle and maybe find some materials to use as weapons. We need to be prepared before going back to the lighthouse.” 06[20:47] * Ptolamir_ nods, “if you need it, then that is what we will need to do.” 06[20:48] * Janken nods [20:48] <Orzady> (I say we continue on – it's not like the wreck is going to repair itself) 06[20:50] * Orzady stands up slowly, wobbles a little bit and trudges on [20:50] <@GWRD> (So let me know where you want to go, so you can continue exploring your new home.) 06[20:51] * Ptolamir_ stands back up to follow in turn. [20:53] <@GWRD> (Into the jungle or along the shoreline?) [20:54] <Orzady> (jungle, but only if we can have Guns-n-Roses play us in) [20:54] <Janken> [i vote into the jungle] [20:54] <Janken> [lol] 11[20:54] <@Theon_Tokko> (I vote Janken gets raped by the plants this time!) 06[20:54] * Valio whistles an unusually upbeat song as they prepare to enter the jungle. 06[20:55] * Ptolamir_ follows into the jungle. [20:55] <Janken> [i vote Theon_Tokko gets eaten by the goat-dropping thing!] 06[20:55] * Orzady scowls at Valio and follows along [20:55] <Ptolamir_> “What materials are we looking out for.” 06[20:55] * Darenel follows the others 06[20:55] * Janken follows along [20:56] <@GWRD> ( http://grooveshark.com/#!/s/Welcome+To+The+Jungle/Zsjq9?src=5 ) [20:56] <Valio> “brnaches and trees to make wooden shafts and poles. Sharp rocks. That sort of thing.” [20:56] <@GWRD> (What direction are you going to travel in?) [20:56] <@GWRD> (And how deep?) [20:58] <Orzady> “Just rip them off trees?” 06[21:00] * Ptolamir_ shrugs. [21:01] <Valio> “If they will definitely work, yes.” [21:01] <@GWRD> You meander into the jungle, with no real idea of what you are doing, as Valio occasionally picks up a stick or goes 'oooh' at a rock, then realizes he doesn't want it after all. 06[21:01] * Orzady looks for something thick enuogh to be a club or the handle to an axe 06[21:01] * Janken also looks for suitable materials [21:02] <Darenel> (so do i) [21:04] <Valio> (want survival rolls?) [21:04] <@GWRD> (Those of you with an appropriate craft skill can roll it, otherwise you're looking at a straight INT roll.) [21:04] <Orzady> (only if they work) [21:05] <Valio> 1d20+1 [21:05] <TolBot> [Valio's 1d20(6)+1]: 7 [21:05] <Janken> 1d20 [21:05] <TolBot> [Janken's 1d20(1)]: 1 (Ugh.) [21:05] <Orzady> 1d20 [21:05] <TolBot> [Orzady's 1d20(17)]: 17 11[21:05] <@Theon_Tokko> 1d20+5 [21:05] <TolBot> [Theon_Tokko's 1d20(8)+5]: 13 [21:05] <Janken> [lol] [21:05] <Orzady> (finally) [21:05] <Darenel> 1d20+1 [21:05] <TolBot> [Darenel's 1d20(6)+1]: 7 [21:05] <Ptolamir_> 1d20+3 [21:05] <TolBot> [Ptolamir_'s 1d20(14)+3]: 17 [21:07] <@GWRD> Most of you spend your time wandering the jungle looking at trees clueless. Orzady and Ptolamir find a few branches that have not been warped or ruined by the elements that would work well as clubs or maybe the shafts of spears. Theon finds a few pointy rocks. [21:08] <Orzady> (looking for the vorpal dagger tree) [21:09] <Darenel> ( or insta win bush) [21:09] <Janken> [+10 pebble] [21:10] <@GWRD> Orzady finds a particularly feral looking tree that could very well have come out of a horror movie. Long thick vines as thick as a man's arm hang from one of the tree's limbs, the rotting carcasses of dead animals lying below it. [21:10] <Orzady> (where's Gelik?) [21:11] <@GWRD> The thing even twitches slightly, even without the influence of the wind. 06[21:11] * Orzady takes a step back away from the tree. [21:11] <Orzady> “We should avoid this.” [21:11] <Darenel> (looks like something just asking to get flamed by Ptolamir) [21:13] <Orzady> “Don't think we're going to get anything good out of it.” [21:13] <Valio> “Agreed.” 06[21:13] * Ptolamir_ eyes the tree. 06[21:14] * Ptolamir_ hands over the good branch he found, “Maybe you can do something with this.” [21:14] <@GWRD> Twisted knots in the tree's bark almost glares at you. [21:15] <Orzady> “Let's move on.” 06[21:16] * Darenel nods [21:16] <Janken> “Good idea.” 06[21:16] * Orzady moves away from the tree quickly. [21:16] <Darenel> (can i do knowledge nature to figure out whats with the tree?) [21:17] <@GWRD> (Sure) [21:17] <Darenel> 1d20+9 [21:17] <TolBot> [Darenel's 1d20(5)+9]: 14 [21:18] <Darenel> (it looks like a tree) [21:18] <@GWRD> You believe the vine hanging from the tree is an assassin vine, a semi-mobile plant that collects its own grisly fertilizer. [21:18] <Darenel> “We should stay clear of the tree and the wines” [21:19] <@GWRD> (The tree itself is harmless, or at least it looks like it.) [21:20] <Darenel> “the wines are fond of eating flesh” 06[21:20] * Ptolamir_ looks over. 06[21:20] * Ptolamir_ nods. [21:21] <Orzady> (It's on your island. It is as harmless as a lieutenant with a book of matches) [21:21] <@GWRD> (In my defense, it's Paizo's sadist island, not mine.) [21:23] <@GWRD> (What now?) [21:23] <Darenel> (cant we find a bunch of hammocks and a tiki bar for a change) 11[21:24] <@Theon_Tokko> (I'd settle for a weapon shop) 11[21:24] <@Theon_Tokko> (or armory for that matter) [21:24] <Valio> (yeah, this island is horrible for resupply…) [21:24] <Darenel> (or a restaurant) 02[21:24] * Ptolamir_ (Tolman@c50aa136.dyn.f88a4073.net.hmsk) Quit (Remote host closed the connection) [21:24] <Orzady> (something with a Michellen rating of 3) 03[21:25] * Tolmanss (Tolman@c50aa136.dyn.f88a4073.net.hmsk) has joined #grovewood 06[21:25] * Valio gives the tree a wide berth and continues to look for weapon materials. [21:25] <Orzady> (brb) 06[21:26] * Valio starts looking for usable stones for sling ammunition while he's at it. 03[21:27] * Tolmanss is now known as Ptolamir_ [21:28] <@GWRD> (FYI: Rocks used as sling stones deal -1 att and do 1d3 damage) [21:28] <Valio> (but it's more than spitting at them) [21:29] <@GWRD> You explore a different area of the jungle, picking up rocks and examining branches as you go. [21:29] <Valio> 1d20+1 [21:29] <TolBot> [Valio's 1d20(16)+1]: 17 06[21:29] * Ptolamir_ keeps an eye behind. 06[21:29] * Darenel follows and keeps his eyes open 06[21:29] * Orzady keeps on looking for something to use as an axe head. [21:31] <@GWRD> (Roll if you are searching for something, and let me know what you are looking for.) 11[21:32] <@Theon_Tokko> 1d20 (a bloody exit off this hellhole!) [21:32] <TolBot> [Theon_Tokko's 1d20(5)]: 5 (a bloody exit off this hellhole!) [21:32] <Darenel> (anything eddible, or anything that could make a good staff) 11[21:32] <@Theon_Tokko> (*finds himself falling into a pit of spikes*) 06[21:33] * Janken looks for something that would make a good spear [21:33] <Janken> 1d20 [21:33] <TolBot> [Janken's 1d20(17)]: 17 [21:33] <Orzady> 1d20 [21:34] <@GWRD> Valio finds all sorts of useful rocks to use for a sling, along with some vine that would work well with a piece of leather as a replacement cord if one of his should break. Janken finds a long straight branch that would work well as a spear shaft. [21:34] <Darenel> 1d20+12 Survival [21:34] <TolBot> [Orzady's 1d20(16)]: 16 [21:34] <TolBot> [Darenel's 1d20(3)+12]: 15 Survival [21:35] <Darenel> 1d20+14 Survival food [21:35] <TolBot> [Darenel's 1d20(3)+14]: 17 Survival food [21:35] <Ptolamir_> “Is any of this going to suffice for mounting an offensive against that camp?” [21:35] <Darenel> (if its needed) [21:35] <Ptolamir_> “You've still so little protection, for you types who use armor.” [21:35] <Orzady> “If we can get into it undetected, this would be all we need.” [21:35] <Valio> “It has to be better than fighting them bare handed.” [21:35] <Ptolamir_> 1d20+1 survival food [21:35] <TolBot> [Ptolamir_'s 1d20(6)+1]: 7 survival food 11[21:36] <@Theon_Tokko> 1d20+5 (Food) [21:36] <Janken> 1d20+9 food [21:36] <TolBot> [Theon_Tokko's 1d20(18)+5]: 23 (Food) [21:36] <TolBot> [Janken's 1d20(7)+9]: 16 food [21:37] <@GWRD> Darenel, while the others are spending their time foraging for weapon parts you and Ptolamir spend the hour looking for game. You come back with enough wild fruit to feed 4 people, while Ptolamir comes up dry. (Theon already rolled for something this hour) 11[21:38] <@Theon_Tokko> (I was screwing around the first roll, but thats aight we got food for a bit) [21:39] <@GWRD> It's now probably about mid-day, just because it's gotten swelteringly hot. 06[21:40] * Orzady looks up, and then around. [21:40] <Orzady> “we should rest.” [21:41] <Valio> “Sounds like a good idea.” 06[21:43] * Orzady looks for shade – good shade, not the hungry shade [21:44] <Ptolamir_> “We should rest.” [21:45] <@GWRD> You take advantage of the hot weather to rest for a few hours, as a rumble of thunder in the distance hints at a coming storm. [21:46] <Valio> “Sounds like we'll be able to refill our water needs.” [21:46] <Janken> “Excellent,not only do we get attacked by practically everything here,but now we get to drown,too.” [21:47] <Orzady> “Beats having our throats slit and strung up like hams.” 06[21:47] * Janken creates a half gallon of water over Valio's head “Water needs?” 06[21:48] * Valio uses prestidigitation to dry himself. [21:48] <Valio> “For drinking, not for showering.” [21:48] <Valio> “But I could use a shower.” [21:48] <Orzady> “I could use…” 06[21:48] * Orzady looks around 06[21:48] * Valio gathers his soap and shaving kit from his pack. [21:48] <Orzady> “…ale.” [21:49] <Valio> “I can flavor water, but I cannot turn it into ale. Sadly.” 06[21:50] * Orzady slips down to his underclothes and waits for the water. 06[21:50] * Janken creates a gallon of water over Orzady 06[21:51] * Valio shaves and cleans himself, changing into his other clothing. [21:51] <Valio> “If anyone else would like to shave?” 06[21:51] * Ptolamir_ watches the sky and stays close to a tree. 06[21:51] * Valio offers the kit 06[21:52] * Orzady waits for the water to drop, cupping his hands up over his head. [21:52] <@GWRD> The rain comes suddenly and hard, pelting the earth and trees with huge raindrops. [21:53] <Valio> “Janken, can you create water at will? If so, perhaps we can use my barrel as materials for weapons.” [21:54] <Janken> “I can indeed,up to a gallon at a time. Just need to be able to speak and move my hands.” 06[21:54] * Orzady drinks the water out of his hands and opens his mouth to take in some more. 06[21:54] * Darenel quenches his thirst too [21:55] <Ptolamir_> “Well, it is now cool enough to keep moving, if we have a direction or goal.” 06[21:56] * Ptolamir_ looks at the others. 06[21:56] * Valio packs his gear, feeling refreshed. 11[21:56] * @Theon_Tokko drinks his fill 06[21:57] * Orzady dries off and gets dressed [21:59] <Orzady> “Now we go kill some savages.” [22:00] <Janken> “And hopefully not get killed ourselves.” [22:00] <Darenel> “we should try to fight them separately, maybe ambush a few of them before we engage the main camp” [22:00] <Darenel> (anyone has a monk to split pull?) [22:00] <Ptolamir_> “dividing them as best we can, yes, is the wisest.” [22:00] <Orzady> “Good idea. Whittle them down.” [22:00] <Ptolamir_> “What thoughts do we have on how many remain in the camp?” [22:02] <Darenel> ( well a normal GM would have 5 or 6, Mage would have 12 and 2 crabs and a few undead goats) [22:02] <Valio> “They are probably at roughly half strength. We took out a few the first time, and the witch when we rescued you.” [22:02] <Janken> [possibly a zombie dragon in there too xD] [22:04] <@GWRD> (All riding Chicken Bats) [22:04] <Orzady> (undead goats? I thought we were keeping my love life out of this) [22:04] <Janken> [nothing is safe or sacred in this campaign!] [22:07] <Janken> “I believe we can take them if they are at half strength. Besides,I have a score to settle with that butcher…he shall find me not so helpless when I am not tied up.” [22:07] <Darenel> (did anyone figure out that wand) [22:08] <Valio> (I have it, but haven't tried to use it) [22:09] <Valio> “If we begin to head back, we can work on fashioning weapons along the way.” [22:09] <Orzady> “Good idea.” 06[22:09] * Janken nods [22:10] <Ptolamir_> (afk) [22:11] <Darenel> “I agree” [22:11] <Orzady> “Maybe we'll find a rusted blade to use.” [22:12] <Valio> “I am willing to sacrifice some of my spare clothing to produce slings for anyone that needs them. Not the greatest of ranged weapons, but it is something.” 06[22:15] * Orzady shakes his head [22:16] <Orzady> “I want this to be personal.” [22:16] <Valio> “I have three full outfits and some spares. I can give up a single leather vest.” [22:20] <Ptolamir_> “What about in those two abandoned camp sites?” [22:20] <Ptolamir_> “Was there anything there you could use?” [22:21] <Valio> “They are the wrong direction, and we didn't see anything when we were there.” [22:23] <Ptolamir_> “I thought we did leave some rudimentary weapons behind.” [22:24] <Janken> “Even so,we have rudimentary weapons now.” 06[22:24] * Ptolamir_ nods. [22:26] <Valio> “and hopefully slightly better rudimentary weapons by the time we arrive back at their camp.” [22:27] <Orzady> “And or stuff when we leave.” [22:30] <Orzady> (…and ooooooh is my wife mad…) [22:30] <@GWRD> (Her team lost?) [22:30] <Orzady> (NO – Dallas won) [22:30] <Orzady> (No – Dallas won) [22:30] <Shaddow> (her team is dallas?!) [22:31] <Shaddow> (or does she hate dallas that much?) [22:31] <Orzady> (No – her favorite teams are the Redskins and whoever is playing Dallas) [22:31] <Shaddow> (woman after my own heart, save put greenbay instead of redskins) 06[22:31] * Ptolamir_ pulls out a dagger, “Someone can use my dagger if it would help.” [22:31] <@GWRD> With a renewed purpose, and some very crude weapons the group prepares to cross back over to the other side of the island to dish out some revenge to the cannibal camp that has harassed them and eaten at least one of them. [22:32] <Orzady> (Yes. Her hate is pure, living thing. It's Saurman, Takhisis and Luficer rolled into one and fed live kittens) [22:32] <Orzady> “I can use the dagger.” 11[22:33] <@Theon_Tokko> (Eh, my sister is still worse…) [22:33] <Orzady> (lol) 11[22:33] <@Theon_Tokko> (All three of them run away from Queen Bitch) [22:33] <Shaddow> (Dallas is evil though.) 11[22:33] <@Theon_Tokko> (Hell, even lawyers run for their lives from her) [22:34] <Darenel> (why is everyone hating on dallas) [22:34] <Shaddow> (because it's evil) [22:35] <Ptolamir_> (cause Jerry jones really is evil incarnate) [22:35] <Orzady> (a micromanaged evil) [22:35] <Ptolamir_> (I have two theology degrees, so am qualified to comment) [22:35] <Orzady> (lol) [22:35] <Ptolamir_> (and, I've lived in dallas area a collective 17 years off and on) [22:35] <Janken> [lol] [22:35] <Darenel> (haha) [22:36] <Ptolamir_> (uh are we still playing D&D?) [22:36] <Darenel> (so maybe this island is called dallas) [22:36] <Orzady> (I'm marching on to the settlement to watch theit patterns and get an idea how to infiltrate and exfiltrate) [22:37] <Janken> [Ptolamir,nope,pathfinder] [22:37] <Darenel> (yes we are moving slowly back to the camp) [22:37] <Ptolamir_> (ok, are we still playing our game here?) 11[22:37] <@Theon_Tokko> (*fixes Janken's spacebar*) [22:37] <@GWRD> As they prepare to travel back to the west, this session comes to a close.
