"Murder everyone? I only kill those trying to kill me, and my missile support is what reduced their own missile attacks in fairly short order..."

"Yeah, I can recreate the attack dog as needed. I can make food too, although provisions so I don't have to would be preferable. " Berry says.
OOC: Wait, did we get character points at some point?

"Amelia, I fully support your thinking on this, and agree with your reasoning.  However, I don't want to dictate how we handle the loot to the rest of the group.  That said, we will go with this plan unless anyone objects.

As for the organization, I trust your judgement on these things.  As long as this has been decided, please make the necessary arrangements."

OOC Last call for the group to object, otherwise I think we should move forward.

I'll mention here that the GM broke that down as Amelia so I think he's encouraging us to get past this so we can get to the good stuff.  You can figure that from the private message to Berry he didn't get private.  :)

And yes, we did get character points a while back.  This character enlisted the aid of Omar.

Berry recieved:
$350 (pro rated from $700 for poverty)
4 cp
1 extra point in Valdassyan.

"I did have some scrolls I was looking to purchase, to expand my spells beyond burning things a little...I meant to ask Berries friend, but I doubt he had scrolls anyway."

In reply to Gareth (msg # 278):

You all spend the night 8n the Khan of Abou Mensour*
Your guide may still be found; do you wish to visit the sage Radjul Qadim before you get rations and supplies and head out?



For magical shopping, I will need a scrounging roll to find a vender, and a roll under 6 (+ bonuses for quality of scrounging, and bonuses of whoever is looking (ie: Amelia if asked)) for each item sought



* read the Adventure of the Porter in the 1001 nights...

In reply to Narrator (msg # 279):

Gareth will ask Amelia for assistance in finding some spells once he has located a vendor.

[Private to GM: Rolled 5 under scrounging skill. Is this the bonus for quality to scrounging? If so lifts target to 11+ Amelia's bonus, correct?
Spells sought:
Apportion     (Movement Subclass), Rolled 13 to find
  Locksmith   (Movement Subclass), Rolled 12 to find
  Levitation  (Movement Subclass), Rolled 10 to find
Shield        (Protection Sublass), Rolled 16 to find
  Mystic Mist (Protection Sublass), Rolled 12 to find
Seek Earth    (Earth Subclass), Rolled 7 to find, rolled 1 over IQ to learn
Sense Foes    (Communication and Empathy), Rolled 12 to find
Keen Vision   (Mind Subclass)], Rolled 4 to find! Rolled 2 under IQ to learn]

Amelia is a bit taken aback when the fire mage approaches her, but dispite the surprised look on her face she replies "Yes, "I can help you find someone to purchase magical wares.  I know just where to look after my excursion earlier today."

In reply to Amelia Montaigne (msg # 281):

You are able to find scrolls for seek earth, and keen vision. You may attempt to learn the spell, and destroy the scroll, or simply use it... once. They cost $100 each, and are cast at 15.

The shop sells a variety of amulets against magic...

In reply to Narrator (msg # 282):

Gareth would like to learn them. What should he roll to do so, or is it automatic?

In reply to Gareth (msg # 283):

A thaumatology roll each and a character point. PM me for that so we can get the group moving.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 284):

Gareth will  spend some time to learn the spells.

[Private to GM: Rolled 7 and 5 under to learn them. Will spend the cp when I get to a proper computer!]

In reply to Gareth (msg # 285):

With Gareth's business concluded, everyone should be ready to move out, after a declaration of rations and other supplies purchased.

You all will be charged $43 for the inn, food, clothing rental and gear cleaning/ repair. Anyone with compulsive carousing ad $20 to that and make a roll.
Last call to inquire locally about your intended target, the tower people have trouble seeing or remembering.

OOC:
I have 5 days worth of rations.  No one has told me what we're doing so I dont know if I need more.  I can afford the above mentioned $43 but beyond that I'm pretty broke.


[Private to GM:
deducted the $43 from my char sheet.]

OOC:
Burke, you seem like a really cool guy.  I dig your style.  Reminds me of me.  I'll float you a loan for food and you can pay me back after this adventure.  I wont even charge interest.

Shroud is ready.

OOC Haveron will have math to do tomorrow, no time for today.
Burke will be covered by Haveron, he would see that as an investment towards the success of the group.

In reply to Shroud (msg # 288):

Gareth will seek one more matter of business with the scroll merchant: he will look for the spells Light and Continual light.

[Private to GM: Rolled 7 to find light, and 5 for continual light, 4 under and 6 under respectively. Rolled well under to learn them as well. May I subtract the $100 and add them as known spells?]

In reply to Gareth (msg # 290):

Finding scrolls is a flat roll of 6 for availability once the merchant was found, and their willingness to sell was based on boni from Amelia. For $120, you have a scroll of continual light that would be daylight strength. I will take the other roll as having learned it.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 291):

So even with a plus 1 with Amelia's help, and a scrounging roll that applied last time, he should get both, right? Or has something changed?

In reply to Gareth (msg # 292):

You gave me s six item shopping list and then added more after I said wrap it up.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 293):

I did. I make no plea of innocence, I just ask for mercy for me thinking slowly!

In reply to Gareth (msg # 294):

The group prepares to leave.
Last call, any planned research on your objective, or are you heading out the gates?

OOC Been AWOL a couple days.  Owe you figures on food and such for Haveron's vrew, plus topping off the miscreants... Burke and Shroud.  Please keep the group moving and i will attempt to get this done over the weekend.

He ensures he has food, sufficient medical supplies and bandages before reporting himself ready to move.

OOC:
I rearranged my cash for Burke and Shroud so now they each have about 13 days of food.

Both are ready.
