Bobble will be looking for MW or magical daggers to buy.

Conan, what do you want?

wand - not on spell list, cant use
bookplate, dust - not interested

You never know when you will need a cold iron weapon.

magical is just out of your price range I believe.

In reply to aFate (msg # 167):

Ok Bobble will sell his MW light crossbow.
He will hold on to the rapier unless he can find a cold iron dagger or 2.

He will buy: MW daggers x2
Standard daggers x4
Lamp oil 4 containers
Guard dogs x2

Also, when he has a quiet moment and can get Conovers attention he will cast speak with animals and thank the dog for his amazing bravery and help with the fights. Is there anything I should tell Conan for him?

Conover likes you, even if you aren't his Alpha/pack leader, Conan.  He could use more food, but what dog doesn't want more food.  Bobble becomes good friends with Conover.

150gp Dogs-medium sized https://aonprd.com/MonsterDisp...temName=Riding%20Dog
           Can be trained for riding or fighting/guarding
25gp Dogs- small sized https://aonprd.com/MonsterDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Dog
           Trained for guard/fighting
Handle animal Skill - explains how many tricks an animal gets
https://aonprd.com/Skills.aspx...Name=Handle%20Animal

You can find cold iron daggers.

I assume you realize you are selling for 1/2 price.

Yes, 1/2 price on selling stuff.

OK so selling a MW crossbow should be about   160gp.
MW Cold Iron Rapier would be about            320gp.

So for selling these two Bobble will get      +480gp.
and his current funds from both chapters are +1,790gp
for a total of                                2,270gp.

He will buy the following:
1 MW Cold Iron dagger                         -600gp
1 medium sized riding dog (golden retriever)  -250pg
2 small dogs, trained for guarding (terriers) -50gp
1 MW dagger                                   -300gp
for a total of                                -1,200GP

Leaving Bobble with                            2,270gp
                                              -1,200gp
                                              =1,070gp

FYI dogs have an intelligence of 2 so they can learn 6 tricks. He will use his 1/day speak with
Animals spell like ability to talk to all the dogs and get to know them.

   Back in Laketown Julian will tell you what he knows about Diridon the Dashing.  Julian met  Diridon shortly after Diridon arrived in Laketown.  Diridon got in a fight with a local man when he was caught flirting with the man's wife.  Diridon had some companions that beat the man up pretty good, and then fled town.  So to make amends Diridon brought the man to Julian for healing.  Diridon was originally going by another name, Frobert Shyde.  Under a Zone of Truth spell it came out that his name was Diridon the Dashing and his companions were just some drunk mercenaries who he had traveled with him to Laketown.  The local authorities eventually decided not to arrest Diridon.
   When it got out who he was, he was visited by the towns apprentice midwife/cleric of Pharasma.  A young halforc woman (Arran Brewe) who was supposedly the daughter of Diridon the Dashing.  They chatted awhile and then she left.  Julian got the impression from Arran that she was mistaken, but in talking with Diridon Julian got the impression that Diridon thought of her in a fatherly manner, he didn't try to seduce her even once.  Her mother seems to have fallen to the same illness/curse/whatever that Conan and Bobble's mother has.
   As for where Diridon went, Julian suggests you look in the fortified capitol of the Lebeda family’s territory, Silverhall.

Julians impressions of Diridon are as follows;
- not a killer, just a womanizer.
- was originally going by another name, Frobert Shyde.
- really experienced (high level)
- DtD is a 40-50 year old halfelf male, good looking and a fine entertainer
- Arran Brewe, young halforc woman (18) supposedly the daughter of Diridon the Dashing
- He was going to the town of Silverhall

Julian will decline, he has duties to attend to, but stop by when you are in the area.  He will also let you stay at his place while you are in town.


What scrolls did you have him make for you?


Anything else you want to do in this town?

In reply to aFate (msg # 175):

I'll have him do a scroll of cure moderate wounds and buy 2 potions of cure light wounds plus enough food and other provisions for the next leg of our journey.   I have 1239 gp's left to spend.

Yes, potion of CMW and buy 2 CLW potions as well for Bobble.

Is the young half orc female here in town, or did she leave already?

She is a local, Julian has been consulted on her mothers condition.

Does she want to travel with us to find our father?

OOC:Try to do some Role=playing and post in-character.
Information you can easily obtain (Diridon the Dashing was THE talk of the town recently).
  Arran Brewe, halforc (actually 1/4 orc with strong orcish heritage= 1/2orc), female, 18, cleric of pharasma, apprentice midwife.  Her mother (human) has recently fallen "ill" (the same illness/curse/whatever that Conan and Bobble's mother has).  Her stepfather (human) was an undertaker, but died last year(of old age).  Her family is upper middle class.  She has a younger human half-brother who is going to take over as undertaker in a year.
  There is some confusion in town as to the identity of Diridon the Dashing.  Local legend has it that a 1/2orc Diridon the Dashing came through 18 years ago and Arran was the result, but the recent Diridon the Dashing was a 1/2elf!
   Julian will setup a meeting.  Conan, Bobble and Makoto are in Julian's meeting room sitting around on couches. Tea and biscuits are available.  Julian and Arran will enter, Julian will introduce each of you and then say "They would like to talk to you about important matters.  I think you might want to hear what they have to say".  Then Julian leaves.  Arran sits down and waits for someone to speak.

Hello young lady. It would appear that we three all share a similar background. Somehow we all share the same father. I know, go figure! We are searching for Diridon because of this curse or illness that has struck our mothers. Would you care to travel with us?

  Arran seems confused about how a gnome and halforcs are children of a halfelf.  But Makoto theorizes, "He may have a means of reincarnation, or some unusual shapeshifting ability, like dragons do.  I have heard stories about your Dragon King and all his children.  Maybe he is the Dragon King reincarnated.  You won't know unless you find him.  More importantly, finding him seems your best shot at curing your mom, maybe he knows why it is happening."
  Arran, "Among the stories my mom told me, apparently shortly after I was conceived a local tough claims to have killed my father, the 1/2orc Diridon the Dashing.  But his claims were laughed off as a drunken memory because no body was found.  However, my mom never saw Diridon after that.  Also, maybe the halfelf Diridon was something.  When I talked to him he denied he had ever been here before and that he could be my father.  However, after the halfelf Diridon left I found a bag of gold in my room.  Maybe that was him.  I admit I am curious, but I'm not an adventurer.  I'm just a cleric of Pharasma, I don't even own any armor."

If you want her to come along, give me a soliloquy and a diplomacy roll, you can take 10 if you think that will work.  She's not unfriendly (Indifferent at worst), but she does need to be convinced.  Bonus points to the skill for a good soliloquy.

Because Conan isn't very good at diplomacy he will keep quiet during the proceedings, however, when it comes to convincing her to join us on our quest, he'll say,Surely we didn't start out as explorers of the Unknown?   Look at your leaving with us as a way of increasing your knowledge of what your God does and wants you to do.   As a way to increase your clerical skills and abilities to such a degree that you can be a more efficient practioner for your God.


OOC: 13:01, Today: Conan rolled 18 using 1d20+1.  aid another Diplomacy roll.
     (here is the roll for aid another if a simple take 10 isn't allowed)
DMEdit:

Bobble completely fails to put his words together in a meaningful way. (Rolled a 1, for 8, 10 with Conans help)

My dear lady, we are off to seek answers both about our father and about how to help our mothers get better. We are not heroes, just ordinary guys trying to do the right thing. We can help equip you if you need armor, and can help train you how to fight if you need it. We could use your help with healing along the way.

In reply to Bobble (msg # 184):

Conan isn't going to mention this but he has a scroll he can't use whatsoever, the cure moderate wounds,   he'll need it to be sure but he cannot cast it.

DMEdit; Conan can't cast it, but Makoto can.  So you can either leave it with her, or tell her where it is in case you are unconscious when you need it used.

  Arran suddenly stands up, "It's strange having more sibings.  I've always wondered if I had any, though I never dreamed one would be a gnome."  She silent for a moment, deep in thought, and with a look of determination on her face she proclaims "You've convinced me, I would only be a burden to you.  Best of luck and look me up the next time you are passing through town.  I will try to research our mother's problems from here while you try to find our father."

Bobble will accept what she says. He will extend his hand to her and give her a bow.

 Dear sister, please take this money and get yourself some armor and a weapon. Probably a shield as well. You need to be able to defend yourself if someone tries to harm you or your people here.

Bobble will hand her a bag with 100gp in it.

Bobble will then prepare to leave town with Conan and Makoto as soon as he is ready to travel. He will use speak with animals to speak to his goat and new dogs each day. He will also entertain the local children with prestidigitation and slight of hand tricks. When ready to travel he will use the goat as a pack animal and will ride the golden retriever, whose name is Tucker. The terriers are guard dogs for the camp and animals and will not be going into dungeons etc with Bobble.

Conan will make ready to leave town for the fortified capital ASAP.   What time he isn't spending prepping to leave is spent at the blacksmith, picking up new tricks, ways of doing things and asking questions of the man and exchanging ideas etc.
