     [Recap]  

        From Ben'dar: [Re: Actions]
          Ben'Dar grins in reply to Farseeker's comment.  "Yes, these
          people are very...hospitable."  He glances off into the
          distance, his eyes lingering on the distant form of Pasha.
          "I hope we find the Green Lady quickly and return here
          soon..."

          Ben'Dar will bring his weapons and basic supplies (torches,
          food & water, flint & steel, rope, etc) in his sack slung
          over his shoulder.
        GM: Ack.

     [New Stuff]

         [Decalis 16th, 107th day since left Marentia, 42nd day of
          Adventure #3 of the 1633rd year [TH].]
          [Location: Pavassa Forest - Sacred Forest - Sacred Forest]

         [Time - Near Sunrise]

            [As the party gather in the clearing they first met Pan'to
             in people gather their gear or have already gathered it
             from their horses.  Equipment checks are made.

             Ben'dar as he checks his gear finds his mind going to
             Marentian and his ranch.  in just 2 weeks it will be
             4 months since he has been away.  He hopes his staff can
             keep the ranch afloat and not run into any problems.
             Ben'dar checks his Dragon armor and other gear to
             ensure all is ready.  It will be hard to leaving Tef'wo
             behind but it has to be this way for now.  A horseman
             without his horse feels naked but Ben'dar knows he
             can still fight without a mount...] 

            GM: Taking Dragon Armor, Magical Pike, Both daggers,
                Spear, Bow/Quiver, Whip.  Wearing clothing including
                Boots, Fur Cloak, Gloves, Wolf Necklace/Fangs. Bag
                of healing materials. Take one water skin.  Take
                Rope, Flint and torches. 

                Leaving Leather Armor. Tef'wo and all horse gear, Maps,
                    Bedroll, Blankets, Cord, Tools, Tent Leave other
                    water skins. Flint/Steel, Torches.

                Do you take?: Potion, Any Rations, Battle horn?

                Note: Pike/spear you can carry both at this point
                  and drop one to use either.  Unless you want to
                  just take one let me know.  The Pike is pretty
                  much a spear anyways.  You say to take torches
                  but it'll be day.  Still take them?
            -------------------------------------------------------

            [Farseeker brings all his gear from the horses and
             checks his weapons for any dull edges he may need
             to sharpen quickly.  He wonders about this place and
             its strange people.  He has never been this far north
             and he wonders how his friends in the barracks would
             react to all this.  His chainmail seems very shiny
             today below his leathers....]

            GM: Taking Chainmail, Great Sword, Throwing and Battle
                Axes (Back)  Also taking backpack of water skin
                and rations.  Wearing Gloves and Magical Belt. 

                Leaving: Broadsword, Pike, Lance, Tent, Bedroll/Blanket, 
                Flint/Steel.
            -------------------------------------------------------

            [As Arawn prepares his gear he recalls the treatment these
             people have done him.  Some like a god while others they
             seemed to ignore him.  Maybe this is what the Middle
             World is truly like.  Others have warned him of this
             place.  That like a king in strange lands he might not
             respected or even cared about.  Maybe if he returns
             from this coming battle Vul'heim will treat him better.
             But Arawn notices something is up between Thig and
             Vul'heim.  Maybe something to investigate later...]

            GM: Taking Scale Mail, Sword, Buckler, Bow/Quiver, Cloak,
                Boots and normal clothing. Backpack with rations,
                water skin and feathers. 

                Leaving all items in Bag 1. Horse & Horse Gear, Bedroll,
                Blanket. Tent/Poles, Fine Clothing.
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            [Xian leans on his staff already prepared.  He always
             has traveled lightly compared to most.  One might even
             think him a nomad as he could live anywhere on what
             he tends to carry with him.  He smiles inwardly at
             Thig having noticed the night's previous events.  Thig
             has always been grumpy at times and Xian felt it was
             cause he never was around his own kind.  Being the only
             Faerry in a group of Humans tends to make you home sick.
             But to see him at the Faerry hill was a delight.  Then
             to have almost puppy eyes for the Queen....]

            GM: Taking Leather, Buckler, Daggers, War Staff, Arbalest
                and Banded Armor. Backpack with water and food. 

                Leaving horse and horse related gear.
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            [Chion watches the other party members and checks his own
             gear.  The previous night he learned a lot of information
             on this place and others.  One thing he knows is not to
             trifle with Miklav.  Cetric was simple to deal with but
             this Miklav character seems powerful.  He may not be
             able to see (no one still is unsure on that?) but he
             can see more than most it seems.  He wonders if after
             this is all done if he'll go to Cetric's and learn at
             his feet like a young apprentice again.  But it might
             be fun just to annoy Durge.  He also thinks about his
             powers of teleport.  How handy it has become for the
             party as if he is meant to be here...]

            GM: Taking Sais, Sword, Chainmail, Helmet, Staff.  Normal
                clothing, cloak, magical belt.  Ring/Amulet. All
                other magical items. 

                Leaving: Horse & Horse gear, Bedroll,

                Note: Do you take Battle Axe and Crossbow?
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            [As Trembyl gets ready he is just glad to be healed from
             those arrow hits.  Having gone to sleep early last night
             he got a good amount of rest compared to the others.  He
             considers the past few days.  Kotothi shamans, Giants,
             Green Lady, Forestals and other weird stuff.  He misses
             being in Bhamotin just sitting around and doing what
             normal folks do.  Whatever that used to be....]

            GM: Taking Leather, Daggers, Scimitar, Arbalest.  Also
                wearing Cowl, Gloves, Boots and Backpack with food
                and water.

                Leaving: Horse & Horse gear, spare Tulwars, Scimitar,
                Bedroll, Blanket and all other gear. 
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            [Strie'bog watches the other prepare having been up for
             some time.  Though the forest or Miklav seems to have
             forced him to sleep he is still nervous.  This day will
             determine the fate of many things.  He doesn't mention
             the unicorn to anyone and keeps it to himself.  Speaking
             of such things is said to counter any good a omen may
             send.  He pats Boyzdar seeing that his wounds have now
             also fully healed.  The wolf seems to have picked up
             on things as well and seems nervous but hasn't left
             Strie'bog's side in days.  Strie'bog and Arawn help
             soothe the wolf down as they don his War Mail.  The armor
             for the dog, found in the monster's lair, may be needed
             in this battle to protect the wolf.  If he had been
             wearing it that night the goblins attacked he might not
             have suffered wounds.  The wolf fidgets but finally
             takes the armor in stride.  Afterwards he wonders about
             this Location magic in his musical instrument.  He has
             never heard of such magic.  But the power of the forest
             and the Guardian is not all known to Strie'bog even
             having lived in these woods for years...]

            GM: Taking Leather/Quilted Armor, Longbow, Axe.  Carrying
                Balalaika. Wearing regular clothing, boots, cowl,
                gloves and fur cloak. Backpack with Water skin, rations
                herbs and Carnelian stone (inside backpack).   

                Leaving: All "fine" clothing items. Flute, Fiddle,
                Book, Tent, Bedroll/Blanket, Tools, Shovel and Flints.
                Horse & Horse gear. 

                Note: Take your Potions?  Got your email.  Will handle
                that stuff later. 
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            [Thig seems to have a glow about him in this place and
             especially after last night.  He seems unusually eager
             and happy today.  He checks his gear and remembers the
             previous night's events.  This place seems like home and
             he wonders if he should stay here for the winter....]

            GM: Taking Leather, Buckler, Daggers, Staff, Crossbow,
                Sling, Axe and Short Sword.  Normal clothing/Robes,
                Gloves and boots.  Backpack of water skin, food
                and a container of dark liquid (?). 

                Leaving: Horse & Horse gear, Bedroll/Blanket, Tent,
                Rope and all other gear. 
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            [Unali looks at Miklav while he talks quietly to Strie'bog.
             She wonders what he did in the end last night.  She
             figures she has some guess but isn't sure.  The exact
             details may be sketchy.  She didn't feel like staying
             around while he did the dirty work.  She looks at the
             Ring she found on Pan'to and wonders how a Barbarian
             like him could have it? But likely if one is trained
             as he was he isn't a Barbarian.  She recalls what
             Mertz found of the statue.  Pan'to working with the
             Humagi?  Not a good thing for these peaceful people.
             She recalls how that large rock flew at her head and
             almost killed her back at the cabin...]

            GM: Taking Chainmail, Leather Helmet, Daggers, Slings,
                and Bow.  Clothing, Boots, Cowl and Gloves.
                Bag with Rations, some rations and Water Skin.  Take
                Spyglass. All magical items in Bag. 

                Leaving: Horse & Horse gear. Leave Lantern, Flints,
                Tent, Books, Bedroll/Blankets and Map.  

                Note: Take Full or Leather Helmet?  Take shield?
                If leave any magical item let me know.
                Do you wear your Black clothing or forest browns
                and greens?  Traveling day the Black might show
                up more than the others.  Let me know.  Got your
                email but it wasn't specific.  Thanks.  
            -----------------------------------------------------------

            [Z'leyra checks her gear and as always seems to carry the
             most of anyone with her.  Taking longer to check and
             separate her gear she stays quiet as she works.  Last
             night she didn't do much and the party seems to have
             have noticed and wonders why she has been so quiet on
             things lately.  But it must be this place.  Not one
             Shaman has been seen yet.  Many druids and Sidh but
             no Shamans.  Though its known the Vassa has got to
             likely have few shamans its strange not to have seen
             any here yet.  She looks up in the trees up at Corona
             and just now recalls she didn't see him all night.
             She wonders where he went off to...]

            GM: Taking Leather/Ring Armor, Dragon Helm, Daggers, Staff,
                Sling, Longbow, Buckler.  Wearing normal clothing.
                Satchel with all items inside.  Take goblet.
                Backpack with water skin and other healing materials.

                Leaving: Horse & Horse gear. Of magical items leave -
                Glass Plate, belts, moneybelts and purse. Leave
                cooking materials, bongos, Rope, Flints and all
                other small items. 


                Note: Take Buckler, Bastard Sword?
            -----------------------------------------------------------


            [As the party gather small talk is done before the final
             Teleport is done.]

            [Ben'dar grins at Farseeker.]

            Ben'dar: "Yes, these people are very...hospitable." [He
              pauses and thinks of Pasha] "I hope we find the Green
              Lady quickly and return here soon..."

            [Farseeker grumbles and mutters a reply.]
            Farseeker: "You got lucky in more than one way..."

            [Arawn watches the party prepare then an idea comes to
             mind that could benefit all...]

            GM: Mana Report - Everyone is at 100% except Z'leyra.
                  I will have to determine that and ICQ her.
                Health - Everyone is at 100% Hit points.
                Energy - Everyone is at 100% Energy Level.

                This is all BEFORE the teleport.  Strie'bog, Chion
                will lose some mana afterwards.  I'll give a new
                report next update. 
                                                                
          Actions? Comments?

          Next update Monday...

          GM: Small update.  I still gotta finish the map details.
              Don't think I'll be done in the next 2 hours.  So
              will do the teleport on Monday's update.  There
              will be plenty of time to make plans next week.
              This update is just to ensure what is taken and
              what is left.  

          GM: I may finish the map stuff and go ahead and write up
              the update for Monday early.  So check the game
              website this weekend once a night (late) if you only
              get the game via email.

          GM: BTW in order to help productive responses.  I'm curious.
              Who all works what hours/days and do you get the game
              via work email or home?  Both?  Do you check the
              website?  I've noticed some responses like for Friday
              take until Monday afternoon to come in so I figure those
              folks get the game emails via work.  So could you
              supply to me in private or public email the following:

              * Work Days/Time
              * Get game posts via home Email?  Work Email or both?
              * Read Game Website or only check so often?

              This will help me figure out critical folks who may
              need to get critical fast replies.  If you get this
              stuff via work only then maybe I could send stuff
              to home emails?  The above though is OPTIONAL and
              not required.  You can supply the info or not.  I'm
              just curious and can keep records.  Again its OPTIONAL.
              Thanks.

          GM: Arawn has approached me in ICQ with a plan that might
              help.  I will assume the party agrees to this plan
              unless stated otherwise.  If problem with it (will
              have to wait and see his post) tell me.
