-remaining PCs spend last round moving over.

original estimate - 50 orcs, 50 goblins (= 100).

Total casualties: 97

Give group of: say 2d10 orcs left + ogre leader + remaining ogre.

20:32, Today: Garek rolled 8 using 2d10.  bonus orcs.

Roll - 30% chance some sort of protection vs. magic.

20:33, Today: Garek rolled 1 using 1d20.  Int - cunning plan (push in straight after fireball).

Can close while first lot of scro are fried.

12:35, Today: Garek rolled 71 using 1d100.  Searching for wizard with altruistic bent.
12:36, Today: Garek rolled 7 using 1d20.  Charisma check to bargain.

-say for 50 GP per level (500 per person); compromised bargaining position since have huge cash reserves here.
500 GP gets them either a xixchil abortion, or a polymorph to make the child human and so bearable (some may die of system shock due to change, despite Ring of Fortitude if desired).
-crossing off 11,000 GP.

12:29, Today: Garek rolled 41,96 using d100,d1000.  Y/N questions - any of potions would give permanent effect.
12:29, Today: Garek rolled 66 using 1d100.  50% - effect would be Strength.
-mixing gives a permanent polymorph potion. Done.

12:56, Today: Garek rolled 95 using 1d100.  Rescued 32 women - any likely to be romantically inclined (32%). [Under the circumstances - no / hell no]

"Will the orcs continue raiding" - Y/N question (about 8 used) - yes.
15:13, Today: Garek rolled 9 using 2d10.  orc morale - 12 or less.

Plan: after a week recuperation of powers, go back and continuing cleansing the nest.

Questions - should they work for the elven navy some more ?
2/3 of Xp is due to happening to find +4 splint mail (unlikely).
Need more XP - Lynn could get somewhere in T&T universe. needs 1 xp = BSP or DE ?

Note: from 3-P a ship counts as one 'world'. So, could literally exit onto one of the orc ships currently near the forest moon. Small number in orbit at any one time.  Crew of 30-40 orcs (+ orc cleric at the helm).
From there: can take over the ship and use it to attack the base directly. After a week, at least some of the orcs should be unpacked back onto the base.

-ships - some patrol moon, some may be raiding into the phlogiston?
Y/N - 'is one of the orc spelljammers near [ogrenest] currently in wildspace'?
Say 70%.

16:24, Today: Garek rolled 25 using 1d100.  70% - ship in wildspace.
-doing portal raid; open open.
Round 1, surprise - fireball on area.
16:25, Today: Garek rolled 71 using 1d100.  portal below decks (50%).
16:25, Today: Garek rolled 20 using 6d6 with rolls of 4,5,1,4,2,4.  Fireball damage.
-below decks; could've been problem if FB expanded to fill area would backfill through portal

16:28, Today: Garek rolled 10 using 3d8.  roll for # abovedecks (out of 30).
-leaves 20 remaining, plus cleric in held.
Captain/lead fighter (say Ftr4- roll 66% chance of abovedeck). Treat as additional.
16:29, Today: Garek rolled 11 using 1d100.  captain above deck - 66%.

19- Character Action
73- Propose

Ambush - can't reasonably be on PCs, so someone else.
ship - is starting to begin the close in /attack on another ship [attempted ambush]

17:06, Today: Garek rolled 23,13 using 4d12,4d6.  Captain HPs / Con. [23/12]
17:07, Today: Garek rolled 12 using 1d20.  saving roll.

Continuing surprise round: add another 2d8+20 damage.
17:08, Today: Garek rolled 14,14 using d20,d20.  axes.
Remaining PCs move through portal (which closes in 30 seconds). Garek moving to rear entrance to belowdecks (probably 2, at back and middle).


Other ship:

17:11, Today: Garek rolled 88 using 1d100.  demihuman ship (50%).
17:12, Today: Garek rolled 5 using 1d6.  neogi, other orc, beholder, illithid, undead, other.
undead! [skeletons, etc.]

17:16, Today: Garek rolled 54 using 1d100.  enemy ship (75)%; or asteroid etc. with undead - raid?

Drax - commences piloting back toward the moon base.
Likely to be intercepted by other ships along way - likely (say 75%) despite number of ships/crews being compromised by raid? Could be that there are other bases in system (say 50%)


17:33, Today: Garek rolled 81 using 1d100.  other bases in system - 70%.
-so no; elves just busy due to e.g. other targets they want to work over./distance and logistical issues.


17:35, Today: Garek rolled 84 using 1d100.  Other ship interception - 70% (can't be more likely than ship there).(i.e. rolled at 70% for there to be 1 or more ships in wildspace; max. 70% though contingent probability).

-probably need to head back through wildspace (from near exit to sphere) to reach moon.
Drax - some spelljamming familiarity, which would come in handy.
-other PCs rode on one once before, Ring of Fortitude creating expedition.

17:40, Today: Garek rolled 87 using 1d100.  15% - likelihood other ship departs planet.
[unlikely if other ship was still headed out toward edge/ previous roll of 84%.]
Probably can't stay up indefinitely. Can either - start spelljamming back toward civilization, or make portal back and stay at home another week.
-actually screw it, can just keep doing hit & run in spare time for a few weeks.

Note: Helm (minor helm rolled) - value of 100,000 GP.
DMG recommendations - can reduce value based on acq. difficulty - down to say 10%. Or less.
House ruling down to 10,000.
Say 1000 XP (total)

-Actually so profitable we could potentially do more raids on spelljamming craft for their helms (helm raids).
assume can sell for 50% value (5000 GP). Minus tax.
Did 11 raids to derelicts with working helms - one character goes through, another stays behind and reopens portal to 'where friends are' if necessary in a few rounds. Could theoretically continue until running out of 'helms' on derelict ships in the spelljammer universe, and also problems with market saturation. Stopped at +55,000 GP, may actually be selling via merchant house over a period of time.

22:24, Today: Garek rolled 5 using 1d7.  Central Casting event (party order)
-Marsa.
22:25, Today: Garek rolled 4,4 using d4,d10.  random event. =44
For NPCs whose age is already established, ignore the age change and just roll ld3 additional events.
22:27, Today: Garek rolled 2 using 1d3.  additional events.
22:28, Today: Garek rolled 1,5,8,1 using d4,d10,d10,d10.  event 1, event 2.
3rd die should be d4, not d10; map down 1/2 ignoring 9-10 (not sure what '41' is).
Gives 15, 41.

14-15 The character joins the military. Go to Table 530: Military
Events to determine the details of his military career. Roll ad4 on
the subtable below to select the character's reason for joining [R].
1 Character was drafted during wartime.
2 Character patriotically volunteered.
3 Character was rounded up by a press gang who needed to meet a quota.
4 Character mistakenly thought that he was applying for some other government job.

41 Character has a run-in with a government leader over a point of law. Roll a d4 to determine the end result:
1 The leader becomes a deadly enemy. See Table 753: Rivals for details.
2 The leader becomes a close friend.
3 The leader becomes a rival. See Table 753: Rivals for  details.
4 The leader becomes a patron. Select additional details on Table 539: In the Service of.. .

22:31, Today: Garek rolled 2,1 using d4,d4.  event, event.
-the character patriotically volunteered
-the leader becomes a deadly enemy.

22:34, Today: Garek rolled 7,6 using d10,d10.  who, what feelings. (missed 'why)
22:35, Today: Garek rolled 8 using 1d10.  why.
22:36, Today: Garek rolled 2 using 1d6.  gender.

7 A sibling - inapplicable. Generally: another dwarf.
[Random name - Danae Hadd]
Prespecified - government leader.
Gender - female
Why 8. - Always trying to outdo each other in everything.
[relates to - 'contradicting over point of law'.
6-7 Intense: Rival hates the character, and goes out of
his way to foil him. Secretly hopes for the chance to injure
the character in some way (physically, emotionally, financially,
socially, etc.).

??Getting into dispute with leader over point of law.
Potentially - whole party agreeing to help the elven space fleet for another mission.
Not exactly 'enlisted'.
Marsa specifically - her (as a dwarf) joining triggers some sort of obscure legal objection from dwarves on the rock (have their own agreements with the elves). Technical distinction: not a dwarf. [ignoring Antaeus for the moment]
-specified rivalry of 'deadly' overrides the 'intense' label - would kill her given the chance.

Using 530 military events to determine results for whole party (because bored).

22:48, Today: Garek rolled 3 using 1d3.  # military events.
22:49, Today: Garek rolled 8,2,14 using d20,d20,d20.  events.

*7-8 Character reenlists in his branch of service for another
four year hitch, and another 1 d4 Military Events. Roll a d6, On a
result of 6, he is promoted one rank.

*1-6 Conflict! Character is involved in a major battle. To find
the battle's outcome, go to Table 531:
---22:55, Today: Garek rolled 5,12 using d20,d20.  Conflict 1.
Result of -7: Enemy Wins.
6-7 Roll a d20 1d3+1 times on this subtable. Reroll conflicting
and duplicate results.
23:01, Today: Garek rolled 2 using 1d3+1.  Extra battle events.
23:02, Today: Garek rolled 5,17 using d20,d20.  additional battle events.
-Character is the only survivor of his unit
-An act of the character reverses the battle's outcome (a losing battle is won, a winning battle is lost).
Recognized on a '6' on d6.
23:05, Today: Garek rolled 3 using 1d6.  recognized for reversing event.
-interpret as 'all NPCs with characters' killed (i.e. 'the character' is the PCs side, since using the roll literally wouldn't normally kill other PCs, if they had made some sort of shared background decision).
-logically, PCs usually tougher than NPCs; plus ability to escape if need be. TPK possibility not balanced by any possible positive gains? Can't 'resolve' event within game system to make allowances for character abilities, etc.

*14 Character's unit is involved in a plot to overthrow the government and
take control.
-disregard (PCs opt not to get involved in this, 'free choice' event. Unlikely even to be able to be tricked into - telepathy.


22:50, Today: Garek rolled 2 using 1d4.  additional events.
22:50, Today: Garek rolled 9,1 using d20,d20.  events.

*9 Character's prowess and obvious smarts earn him a reassignment to a Special Duties unit for the rest of his enlistment
hitch. Select the new unit on Table 5328: Special Duties,

*1-6 Conflict! Character is involved in a major battle. To find the battle's outcome, go to Table 531:
---22:55, Today: Garek rolled 2,10 using d20,d20.  Conflict 2.
-8: PCs lose.
8-9 Character sees action, but nothing noteworthy.

Immediately fleeing. Likely to have at least some time as *thing* closes.
21:47, Today: Garek rolled 6 using 1d6.  immediate exit to T&T world - 1 to 4 Rhaelph.
21:53, Today: Garek rolled 27 using 1d100.  Unicorn continent (75%). [remaining % for islands].

21:56, Today: Garek rolled 253 using 1d5+252.  Page 253 to 257 random location.
21:57, Today: Garek rolled 3 using 1d4.  page 253 location.
Bay of Blood - north shore of Unicorn [Eastern Side], toxic algal bloom.

22:04, Today: Garek rolled 28 using 1d100.  use D&D random encounter table - forest.
22:05, Today: Garek rolled 93 using 1d100.  Humanoid table. - Orc.
Probably multiple orcs. Unlikely to be super close. Unrolling carpets and going AWOL.

Near bay - search for small island that's safe and/or ships likely?
Next time: go into BSP scenario [demiplane] and come out in Marcelanius' shop.


22:17, Today: Garek rolled 99 using 1d100.  likelihood of settlement on small island - 40%.
Plot complication?

22:18, Today: Garek rolled 15,76,25 using d100,d100,d100.  event focus, action, subject.
NPC action, mistrust, friendship
-no settlements, a solitary weirdo starts to shoot at your carpet as you come closer.


22:30, Today: Garek rolled 81 using 1d100.  Likelihood of ships in bay (say 8%).
(1/2 normal - no)

Basically - will have to kill or disable dude in order to land carpet somewhere without orcs + live in squalour for awhile. OR, take carpet inland and start looking for civilization? - problem of no yes/no questions.
No idea where they are - somewhere not on the Dragon continent.
Ideally need to probe hermit telepathically - hard to capture alive.

Other option - Plane Shift to a BSP plane. [probably needs very specific 'metal fork'] - would have a fork for normal (FR) material plane.
Plan A - head back to mainland, start looking for settlements. Can keep going for up to 8 hours, looking for hidey holes.
Following path of river since settlements need water (although polluted?)
River seeming to curve along coast, near very savage forest - going straight over plain.
'iron orcs raid here' - suggests must be some kind of settlement or would be just rampaging over, rather than raiding.
Armadillion - ' also serves as a gathering place for the plains bands of free centaurs that roam the Burnished Plaine' - so centaurs live here.
