That a cuz he’s awesome ;)

It sounds like we have an intent, if not a plan.  Rae, can we get a map from the locals or will we need to rely on an NPC guide?

In reply to Nicolai Romanelli (msg # 424):

Yes, the locals will provide a rudimentary map of known tunnels in the area. Svimn won't be accompanying you. He's a lover, not a fighter.

If your business in the Deep Gnome village is finished, I will move the narrative ahead shortly.

Good to go

I'm fine with moving on.

Is anyone else suddenly getting the "broken link" image for Nic, Corros, and Gronk's portraits?

I was getter my them on Grey Cell but not here.  Weird.

Great IC post, Keys. The OG Lizard King would approve, I am sure.

What, if anything, were we doing so that Nic can see in the Underdark?

-

Wishing for Ulfgar to come back.  :/  Barring that, unless someone else has a darkvision spell or some weird alchemy, I guess bumbling through with a torch.

Rae,
In the interest of ease of play, can Corros have a dark vision cantrip for Nic?  He’s got the Path of the Book and all that so it might make sense.

I invited Spartan to rejoin some time ago, and recently dropped a couple of hints over in Twilight Tales. I'm not going to beg though.

I just remembered that y'all found a magical sword, probably a Sun Blade, but you haven't ID'ed it yet. It does produce sunlight up to 30', so that's an option (albeit a pretty unstealthy one).

Keys, would that be a replacement cantrip or a gimme? If it's a straight swap, that's totally fine. If not, I'm willing to cut some kind of deal with y'all. Or, how about this? Svimn can whips Nic up a potion of darkvision. It'll last 8 hours. The components are hard to get in the underdark so he can't make more than one. That should tide you over until you can find something else.

Trade for sure.  I’m happy to give up a slot.  The potion is fine too, but I’ll let Teg make the final call.

Darkvision is a level 2 spell, so I can't really feel good about that being a cantrip swap for my benefit.  I'll take the potion and hope we find something else (or materials for another potion) before it expires.

Cool with me.  I for sure can’t give up a spell slot with only 2 to work with.

I've updated the active quests entry in the Adventurers' Journal.

I don't think our party is consistently-stealthy enough to manage a safe withdrawal.  Stay put and be ready to fight?

Yeah, we’re more of a “hi, want to fight?” kinda group.

I have no objections to getting out of the way. Presumably there’s an even bigger threat chasing it.

I’m also happy to go with the majority view if you both want to fight it.

I’m thinking a nice polite, “of course,” followed by “ we’re hunting Drow, know of any?”

/agree

Do we just want to surprise-round these fools?

In reply to Nicolai Romanelli (msg # 445):

I guess so. We said we were hunting drow and looks like we found them.

Does Nic have any abilities that allow him to move through enemy-occupied space without provoking opportunity attacks?
