Assuming the 600xp reward for finishing this quest, Tiria will be 129 shy of 4th level. So after this assault event she'll be able to bump her Intelligence which is awesome.

In reply to Tiria Nailo (msg # 102):

If you’ve got the cash, check out Hexia’s shop for magic items to boost INT. might be a good investment meaning you can spend your ability point increase elsewhere.

As a Wizard I'm eventually going to want a 20 in intelligence.
The only magic item I'm aware of that boosts intelligence is the Headband of Intellect which sets it to 19 and requires attunement. Spending her level 4 ASI to hit 18 Int would be equivalent.

I'd probably be better off buying something like a +1 Wand of the Warmage to boost spellcasting though it unfortunately doesn't boost the spell save DC like a +1 Rod of the Pact Keeper would do for a Warlock. I think there was an equivalent item in Tasha's (+1 Arcane Grimoire?) but Hexia's list of items appears to have been created prior to it's release so I'll probably have to craft it myself.

Fair enough!

Elisar, I require neither healing nor a rest.

Izayah is fairly hurt but...the village is like RIGHT OVER THERE I think, so it'll be okay. lol

In reply to Izayah Hamadrell (msg # 107):

And what were his final words to you?

Well, he said "the village is like right over there I think, so it'll be okay."

That's when the goblin snipers hit him. Three crits, can you believe how lucky they were. Such a shame...

Lol bro, that box hit you pretty hard it looks like. Take the heals ;) just in case

What are you all on about? I'm only down 2/3s of my hit points. It's fiiiiiiiine. LOL!

EDIT: Actually - GMs - how far are we from the village at this point?

Well after you guys spend whatever time you want identifying the objects from the mimic you have a little travel across the shore and back to Smith's Gambit you'll be.

Speaking of who is identifying what and how? Are you taking a short rest then?

In reply to The Narrator (msg # 111):

I'm willing to help identify

Ah, identifying.

Sure, then let's take a short rest, and Elisar - Izayah would be grateful for the song of healing as well.

Let me know if you need Izayah to identify something (it'll likely be cursed though, forewarning lol)

Lol, Now why ever would I do something like that? XD

I'm happy to have a short rest, I'm 3 HP down and could use my Arcane Recovery.

For identification Tiria can read through the scroll using her knowledge of Arcana and do the old taste and sniff tests on the potions using her understanding of Herbalism for which she has the kit. She is also trainded in alchemist's supplies but doesn't have a set on her right now.

The better option is probably Elisar ritual casting Identify for each one.

In reply to Tiria Nailo (msg # 115):

Yeah, after we do the normal tests I can use identify. I can do it once quickly (using a feat) then an hour per check for the others, unless I burn spell slots.

Will do song of rest as well to boost healing.

I thought Identify was 1 minute casting then +10 minutes to ritual cast it. Is it different based on your feat?

In reply to Tiria Nailo (msg # 117):

You are right of course, dont know where i got an hour from!!!

hahahaha

No sooner do I post my dice luck then BEHOLD! The fruits of my labor!

10:17, Today: Izayah Hamadrell rolled 3,1 using d10+2,d6.  First hit die for short rest (+song of rest).

Amazing. Simply...amazing.

Is everything being identified by Elisar, does Izayah need to hold something during the short rest?

In reply to Izayah Hamadrell (msg # 120):

I don't need the HPs, and only have a couple things that would reset, but I'm happy to hold an item to identify if needed! Just let me know, Elisar.

So there are 4 items in total that need to be identified, 3 potions and a scroll. If Elisar identifies all of the items it would take him a total of 44mins and he'd have to use a spell focus (which yes can be the lute) or spell components for the identify spell. Is this what you all would like to do?

In reply to The Narrator (msg # 122):

I can use my Fey feat to identify one of them, after that it is Ritual time, so a total of 34 minutes, plus singing Song of Rest for Izayah.

If nobody objects I’m happy to do this.

Works for me

Yes please :)

Sounds fine to me if you're willing.
