      [Recap]

        From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
          Kiet goes over to Raban and looks up at him.  Kiet's pretty...

          "I don't know if you remember, Raban, but you were the ....
        GM: Ack.  Good RP.

        From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
          OOC

          Don't forget that Raban (and Will?) is carrying at least one of
          the enhancible jewels with him and we have to somehow provide
          them both with their shares before they leave.

          Not sure how to handle this.

          BTC....(Back To Context)....heehee

          When Kiet hears about the Gentle Giant and our quiet Woodsman ready

          "I ask not because I am greedy for my share...just the opposite.

          OOC...this obviously can be decided later as we examine the
          haul more closely.  I just wanted to remind people that some
          of it has to happen before we leave...or we have to find some
          way to get the shares back to them after they are made.
        GM: Ack.   Don't recall them having it but I'll check my notes.
            Raban doesn't care about his shares.  He can make a ton of
            gold entertaining so doesn't care.

        From Kiet: [Re: Actions]
          Kiet is sad to see these two, one friend and one mere acquaintance,
          ....
          of "what's next" lingers...
        GM: Ack.  Good RP stuff.

        From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions]
          Z'leyra still does not feel powerful enough and skilled enough
          with the Akasha spell to do her search for her father's
          murderers in Ticasi. She wants to do it right the first time,
          not to give the murderer a chance to obscure the evidence. So
          she is open to any other adventure while she tries to improve
          her skill and power so that the following adventure can deal
          with her father's killer.
        GM: Ack. You do realize if your MEL20 Akasha may not be powerful
            enough.  I can figure out 5 ways to thwart it.  Course in
            my view a MEL0 might be as powerful to get it done since
            I prefer underdogs not demi-gods. :)  So keep that in mind.
            So you have not voted.  Means we can't move on till we get
            all votes in.  :<

      [New Stuff]

          [Octagi 5th, 1634TH]
          [Donara Capital City Streets - West side of town]
          [Time: 8:10:21 pm - Donara City]

          [Before Raban leaves]

            Kiet goes over to Raban and looks up at him.  Kiet's pretty
          sad about this day, but understands the need and desire to head
          out on one's own destiny.

            "I don't know if you remember, Raban, but you were the first
          person of this group of maniacs that I met back in the Dark
          Lands.  Do you realize that was only about a year and a half
          ago?  I remember when you grabbed me from behind and lifted me
          over your head to keep the snake away from me."  Kiet smiles and
          continues, "Oh, it's a really good thing you couldn't understand
          how I cursed you out!"

            Raban bursts out in a loud bellow of laughter but stops so
          not to draw attention from side streets.

            "I will miss you, my friend.  I'm sorry, but I have nothing I
          can use as a parting gift for you.  If I had known ahead of
          time I would have made something for you.  Be safe, and find
          some way to avoid those Great Apes...OK?  They seem to be your
          bane."  Kiet smiles again then says, seriously, "May the
          blessings of your Goddess follow and keep you."

            He shakes hands with his giant friend.

            The giant yanks the small man forward and gives him a bear hug
          that causes him to see stars in his eyes.  Then Raban releases
          him smiling.  "Snakes tend to be your bane as well.  That one
          at the tavern you trapped in the box?  Just be careful and
          I need no gifts.  What I carry is all a Bard needs.  We are
          meant to travel.  Staying in one place is not our way.  I will
          return to ensure you don't burn yourself with those wild spells
          of yours.  Take care of Kell he tends to get over anxious and
          forgets who he is in combat."  He smiles and taps the acrobat's
          shoulder.

                                         --------


          [Time: 8:28:18 pm - Donara City]

            Will gives water to the exhausted wolf.  He then recalls the
          combat and speaks up.  "What did the Elf have to say?"

            Everyone stops and turns to the woodsman in confusion.  Elf?

            Will continues, "What Elf? Oh, the one that was wondering if
          we knew where Varange was to be found."

            This causes a flurry of conversation but Fremea seems content.
          Arawn fears the elves might've been after them and the item
          by looking for Varange.  But did he ask by his actual name?

            Will shakes his head no.

            Arawn realizes that maybe the elves still do not know what
          happened but can suspect.  That makes staying here longer
          much more dangerous.  But again Fremea seems quiet and content.

            Once the party is together, at least those that are going back
          to Marentia, "Is there anything anyone needs to do before we go?
          I know we have done more than just find my parents, and for that
          I am very appreciative. I believe I have found a new family and
          will continue to protect any who need to be."

            Saya and Anorlic smile at each other and nod.

            When Kiet hears about the Gentle Giant and our quiet Woodsman
          ready to stay and not join everyone else, he is greatly
          distressed.  Raban is a real friend and Kiet has always admired
          the drawing skill of Will, even though never mentioned before.
          Then Kiet also realizes something else that must be dealt with
          before they leave.  Kiet is not looking forward to this next
          necessity.

            Kiet makes his way over to Fremea and says to her "Fremea,
          please do not take this as anything other than looking out for
          the interests of those that are leaving, but if shares of our,
          um, gains are to be made to them, we must figure out how to
          provide it to them.  Also, do not forget that Raban and Will
          each have one of the enhancible gems...turquoise if I recall
          correctly."

            "I ask not because I am greedy for my share...just the
          opposite. They both deserve what they have earned along with
          all of us.  You, as the Leader of this quest, have to determine
          how we make it right to them."

            Kiet is sad to see these two, one friend and one mere
          acquaintance, ready to leave the rather lucrative group.  Raban
          never really cared about that anyway, but Kiet was never really
          sure about Will. Certainly the man knew how to draw!

            With this change, Kiet looks inward.  He's only been with the
          group for a year and a half, but look what has been
          accomplished!  Look at the riches never even dreamed of back on
          his home island.  But this change begs the question; What's
          next?  He certainly doesn't want more of what happened during
          this last month where we all became but the thieves of thieves.

            Kiet feels he has a long way to go magically before he can
          truly protect what belongs to him, but also there is this small
          crisis of identity.  What is truly important to him?  And what
          should he concentrate on for what almost certainly will be
          additional (but hopefully lucrative) future adventures with
          these people?  Certainly they are good companions, even if a
          bit too eager to tread where Giants might fear.

            Also, there is the issue of the incessant combats.  Kiet knows
          full well he is unprepared for anything other than watching the
          backs of others.  Sure, he can handle a knife and javelins way
          better than the average guy, but where we go are but few average
          enemies!  At least he is capable of running, or flying, should
          it prove necessary. But Kiet is also no coward, and his friends
          here count on that.

            So...concentrate on magic?...or physical combat?...or
          balance between?  He knows he is above average for most people
          with his Jeweler talent, and way more competent as an Herbalist..
          but what next...?  Some preparations have already begun...but
          still the question of "what's next" lingers...


          Actions?  Comments?

          Next update...Monday...

          GM: Good introspection from Kiet.  But we move on.  I have to
              figure out these items he speaks of.  Will check the
              treasure files when get time.  So far two more folks have
              to vote Z'leyra and Wout for next adventure.  If there
              is nothing more then Monday I'll teleport folks to Marentia
              and the game is over  If stuff to do or need me to hold
              let me know.  Forgot to add the Elf thing and Fremea's final
              thoughts so did above from last update.

          GM: My schedule -

              * CP Processing - Already done and emails sent.
              * Character sheet updates and then send them out.
              * Wait for final votes to decide IBT time and next adventure.
              * Finalize notes/loot
              * Finalize some scenes I typed up not seen in updates.
              * Start research on map makers and stuff for next adventure
              * Clean this old computer off of pnp and move to new computer
              * Start on IBT time events
              * Start working on Adventure Outline

              So a ton to do.  But I suspect IBT will last till end of Summer
              so we have time for down time.


          GM: Experience Chart

                Player     CEP     MEP   CPs Sent for update
              Arawn         60     614         Yes
              Fremea       242      40         Yes
              Kell          50     324         Yes
              Kiet          76     286         Yes
              Raban        162      -          Yes
              Unali        220      -          Yes
              Will           6     192         Yes
              Z'leyra      237     137         Yes

              So Combat MVP is Fremea which is nice as leader.
              Magic MVP is Arawn who did tons over others.

              I've processed all CPs so I just gotta work on sheets
              soon so stay tuned for that.  I suggest not working
              on IBT idea till you get these sheets.  I will work on
              the smallest to largest sheets for ease of speed.
