Game Update #116 in sequence (file #663)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Admin Notes: Nona.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Recap]
From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions]
Z'leyra expresses an interest in learning Helva and Lemasan.
GM: Ack.
------------
From Fremea: [Re: Actions]
Fremea considers the offer made by Oby and wonders if there is
more to this generous offer. She shrugs and decides she will take
them up on it, though only wants to have good rangers to go with
her to hunt, as they will know how to stealth in the forest.
"There is something else I would like though. From the Herbalist
shop." She speaks this to Oby.
Fremea will learn Katai at least.
<The only thing she will not reveal to anyone is the true name
of the Seker and another other private thoughts she learned from
him. Otherwise, all is told.>
GM: Ack. Remember the Seker revealed his name to the full party
in the cave. But keeping a name private is fine. Doubt
it would be asked.
------------
From Chion: [Re: Actions]
Yeah, Chion wants to learn all the ones he doesn't know, L'P'Nth
first though. If others wish to use it, he will not stand in
their way, but if nobody chimes in, he might as well learn the
languages now.
GM: Ack. But do you have a particular order? :)
------------
From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
Kiet would speak with Oby about three items....
"Kind Sir, I was wishing to beg your indulgence about several
items we acquired on our short adventure. I would seek first
advice as to how to find out in which languages these books are
written? Further, I humbly ask for advice as to how to identify
the signifigance of these uniforms and flag. Do you know of a
scholar with whom I might work to make these determinations.
Thirdly, and last, I seek to know the secret of using the magic
power of this sword I have in my posession. I have little skill
with military matters, but I think I may be able to make good
use of the magic contained within it. Might one of your other
servants be able to help me with this determination?"
"Finally, Master, how might I make contact with the Vily I
encountered on my entry to the Elder's lands and any suggestions
you might have for me is seeking such an audience? While I am
not quite ready to seek an audience with her, I must know how
best to approach her."
GM: Ack.

[New Stuff]
[Apris 6th, 1634TH. 9th Day of Adventure #4.
[Location: High Elder's domain - Citadel, Dark Lands, Forest]
[Fremea listens to Oby's offer and wonders if there is a catch.
As her slavers always said there is no such thing as a free
meal. One must steal it or earn it. She shrugs and speaks to Oby.]
Fremea: "There is something else I would like though. From the
Herbalist shop."
Oby: "Certainly. They are closed now but in the morning. Just
speak to myself or Zhou then."
[Kiet speaks to Oby while the party is starting to divide up and
head to their inn rooms, eat or stables.]
Kiet: "Kind Sir, I was wishing to beg your indulgence about
several items we acquired on our short adventure. I would seek
first advice as to how to find out in which languages these books
are written? Further, I humbly ask for advice as to how to
identify the significance of these uniforms and flag. Do you
know of a scholar with whom I might work to make these
determinations. Thirdly, and last, I seek to know the secret of
using the magic power of this sword I have in my possession. I
have little skill with military matters, but I think I may be
able to make good use of the magic contained within it. Might
one of your other servants be able to help me with this
determination?"
"Finally, Master, how might I make contact with the Vily I
encountered on my entry to the Elder's lands and any suggestions
you might have for me is seeking such an audience? While I am
not quite ready to seek an audience with her, I must know how
best to approach her."
Oby: "I am no master sir. I am a humble servant to the High
Elder. I have no noble title here. As to the books and
other documents you may have found that will take time. If
it is a language we know then it will be quite. If however
it is a unknown language it will take time. If your willing
to turn them over or a few we can study them. There may
be some experts in the Lands who can identify them. But
I make no promises. Same with the uniforms and flags.
Those things will have to be researched. The problem is we
are in the corner of this continent. As a result we are
rather limited to our knowledge. As to the sword we can
learn that info quickly and instruct. We even have sword
teachers who can show their arts to you if willing. As
to this Vily creature. That is a bit harder. Do you know
her name? I suspect a summoning with her name might help.
A tracking spell if you have something of her person. I'm
sure we have info on the creature you could study. But
beyond the above I'm not sure how one could get an audience.
These things are beyond my ability as I'm not a magic caster.
I could direct you to folks who could help though."
Actions? Comments?
Next Update...Monday...
GM: Short update. I am done editing the Personalities file.
I've added 32 new characters and edited about 90% of the
other 130 odd characters encountered in the campaign so
far. BUT at this point the ftp site is still down. So
can't update the file. Once I do I'll send out an email
for folks to review it. So ignore the old file on the
site now. With this done I'm at the point of working
on IBT actions now. I've read and started the first two
and sent out comment emails . I'm off this weekend so
will be working on it more then. So stay tuned. I'm
almost ready to work on Ben'dar's but waiting to figure
out if Kiet is going to join him in the forest or not.
Skill wise it doesn't matter if you guys combine IBT
actions and work together. But it does for encounters.
Folks can die on random encounters, for an example see
Triest's info in the character file now or later. So
its critical I know where folks go either safe in the
citadel or out in the wilds. So stayed tuned.
Only a few slots left on the language slots technically.
For the language chart consult the previous updates.
Quick update for now. Hopefully be done with 1-2 IBTs
this weekend. Hopefully ftp site back up and can update
the website too - getting a bit frustrating it down every
other night. :<
