Sorry guys.  I'm going to be out for a couple of days.  I can barely sit up long enough to type this.  Look for me around Wednesday.

Ano, Kornari was missing by the end of the battle with Basarshakath.  No one knows what happened to him.

In reply to Eru (msg # 108):

Can Phin communicate with the others in his tiny state now that they know he's there, or are his minuscule squeaking beyond the range of hearing?

You cannot communicate directly.

OOC: Chapter 5 - Rebirth of a Star

One of the major things Toben has been able to accomplish during the down time was identifying a ton of stuff. Most of the items found in the mountain, with the exception of what Phin is carrying, has been identified. The stuff we figured out through trial and error was not included in the identifies... ie: scale boots, fang dagger, quiver, etc..

Based on knowing what they can do now, y'all might have a better idea of who wants what.

~~~

* Spear of Elemental Damage.  Has the ability once per round to shift elemental alignment as a free action.  Adds +1 damage (not attack) and counts as a weapon of that element.  Includes but does not seem to be limited to: fire/ice, water, earth, wind, lightning, sonic, poison (does not actually work like poison), holy, demonic, necromantic, spirit (can hit incorporeal creatures).  Spear is made of some unknown black non-metal (not a magical property so can't identify through magic) that is about half the density of mithril and just as strong if not stronger.  Klale might be able to help further.

* Sash of Elemental Immunity.  Once per day, as a free action, the wearer can will the sash to make them immune to any single form of elemental damage (this does not grant immunity from normal damage from any kind of weapon).  The immunity resets with the rising of the sun regardless of when the previous day's immunity was chosen.

* Skull (polished) - difficult to understand, though it has some capacity to communicate telepathically in certain locations.  Telepathy is specific to a certain target which is unknown.  Possibly finding the right location will reveal more.

* Shield of Arcane Dome - three times per day the bearer of this shield can summon a spell at caster level 20 that acts like a Shield Spell except it protects the bearer and everyone within a 10' circle behind the bearer.  It blocks all non-magical arrows, magic missiles, and magical projectiles of up to 3rd level magic.  There is also something about dragons, but the identify spell is hazy on that point.

* portable hole-like thing we got from the goblins - Modified Portable Hole.  When open, allows passage through up to 15 feet of solid material or creates a 15 foot cave in the side of thicker objects.  If closed, anything within remains stored there but does not weigh anything.  There is more to the hole, but it seems you would have to explore those properties from inside the hole...when it is closed.

* fancy lute - on Phin.
* feathered hat - on Phin's person.

* 20 vials of liquid - see below
Potions:

5 divine magic (unidentifiable by a mage)
3 dwarven fire - burns hot enough to melt mithril, clings, only goes out when it runs out of fuel or addressed by magical cold.  Lack of oxygen does nothing.  Burns under water or vacuum.
2 potions of greater invisibility (duration 10 mins each)
1 poison (1d4 STR damage/ 1d4 days)
3 spider climb potions
1 potion of greater polymorph
1 potion of alter self
1 potion of transformation
2 potion of competence (allows a permanent +1 increase to 1 base stat chosen by drinker)
1 sparkling bright potion that is super powerful but unidentifiable.  It's in a black container that seems to swallow light.  Made whole barn glow when opened.

I can make use of the vial of poison at the very least. The portable hole sounds intriguing for stealthy entries as well, but if anyone else has a greater need for it the by all means have at it. As with the invisible pots.

Toben is currently holding on to the portable hole, but he doesn't necessarily have to keep it. He also has the animal skull, primarily because it's use is still relatively unknown. The other items seem more useful to others.

For potions, Toben would be interested in the transformation, alter self, and greater polymorph. Greater invis can pass to someone else since he can already cast regular invis.

Not sure. But Mairen would know I would think, as well as Ceven being the song of the Earth and all.

On a side note, I'd like to take a moment to thank Eru for a fantastic story and game thus far. The plot is outstanding, keeps us all guessing, and is far more engaging than I ever imagined a forum based d&d game could ever be. I'm loving the character and NPC development as well. If this was a novel, I would have binge read it until my eyes dried out. The quality of this experience definitely shows from the dedication of the gentleman behind the DM screen.

I couldn't ask for better pals to game with as well. You're all awesome :D

Agreed.  It is so rare to be part of such a great group and have a DM that sticks around.  We have been doing this for almost two years now wich is amazing.

Thanks guys.  I really appreciate that.  I am here for two reasons, to give you the best game I can come up with and to hone my own story telling abilities as a writer.  Y'all have really helped me with both, so thank you.

Ano, you'd definitely know, though the rest of you might considering where you were raised.  The Soul's Range borders the northern sea.  It's southern foothills begin due north of Towertown (the turtle-shaped forest on the map).  It's near enough the duchies that you may have heard of them, maybe called by a different, more generic name.  Ano's education is more formal and so he would know both the current formal name (Soul's Range) and any local generic names.  He even knows where the fort is.

So far we have found two stars, the song of the earth and the healer.  The enemy may have at least three dark stars.  The song of fire, the song of mind, and Basarshakath the counter part of the healer.

Interesting.
