Admin Notes: Roster v2! Hope its
better?<br>

[Recap]<br><br>
From Raddok: [Re: Ship's
weapons]<br>
Raddok is
wondering if he should have asked (before leaving the<br>
ship to help with
supplies), what kind of armament and possible<br>
cannon does the
ship have and/or need? Also, nets, both large &<br>
small, might be of
use, whether to serve as an open flooring,<br>
or to toss for
either fish or pirates, etc. He asks his<br>
companion
obtaining supplies about this. He also explains he<br>
has no experience
with any of those things, unfortunately.<br>
GM: Ack. Tech in pnp is
Ancient Trireme era. So 'best' warship<br>
are
Athenian Triremes tech. This is rowing, sails, ramming<br>
and
maybe ballista style. No cannon. Gunpowder is the<br>
level
of Naptha which is a form of greek fire in some sense.<br>
Gunpowder hasn't been found yet technically. Magic on<br>
the
other hand is common and that varies for combat or<br>
defense. Some ships might have ballista of rocks or<br>
large
archery ballista but this ship has none being a<br>
simple
merchant ship. This is why there are only 3<br>
decks
not 4-6 18th century 1800s era warship. Unless you have<br>
seamanship skill fighting is at half quality and I would not<br>
wear
chainmail or plate on board. :) Fall over..sink. <br><br>
From Arawn: [Re: Actions]<br>
Replying to Unali
in Katai:<br><br>
"A pity as we
need answers though I can't blame them if....<br>
<br>
OOC: Scott, did
the dwarves have boots to match the description<br>
of the killing
blow(s)? And I'll post regarding speaking with<br>
Damon in a
bit.<br>
GM: Ack. Boots? They all
have such. Whether it was the same.<br>
Hard
to tell without actually inspecting each boot.<br>
They
were all dirty and soiled. Two things seem to<br>
lead
to Unali's conclusion though. This was covered<br>
in
past update. 1). Two dwarves left to go to below<br>
and
then were found in galley eating 2) fingers were<br>
soiled
with blood, guick and iron. Either from battle<br>
or
clawing out of the cage.. But all dwarves were like<br>
that
except the elder who had clean hands.<br><br>
From Arawn: [Re: Actions]<br>
Part of this post
tracks back to Update #22. Meant to send<br>
things out sooner
but I've been swamped lately. Sorry about<br>
that.<br><br>
OOC: Glorified
Elf:<br><br>
Cool, though not
sure if I'd call an alfar a glorified elf but<br>
I get it - Daoine
Sidhe... Alfar... Anwora... True Sidhe (all of<br>
whom look similar
to elves) and Whispers... Faerry - different<br>
species,
possibly different genera/families. Arawn does not<br>
consider himself an elf but I understand how a Detection spell<br>
might
identify him as such:) As to FC spell yes that's what<br>
I
posted in old updae its half power <br>
<br>
Friendly Current:<br><br>
The
spell is in both groups spell families but the rules are<br>
different depending on whether it's from Water or
Sea<br>
Powers.<br><br>
Sea
Powers Version - Duration: EL+1 Strategic Turns, Speed:<br>
(EL+1) x 3 miles added each day<br>
Water
Powers Version - as above but Speed is 50% lower.<br><br>
Assuming Dorhak would like Arawn to cast this I'll have Arawn<br>
cast
it at max EL, using Tongue of the Water to boost.<br>
Rerolling any failures up to 5 times. He'll recast it<br>
whenever the current spell times out.<br><br>
Food
and Water:<br><br>
I'm
hoping to have Arawn do at least some of the cooking for<br>
the
party while at sea (he has training in Cooking as a<br>
Skill). Good food hopefully means a happier and healthier<br>
party
once we disembark!<br><br>
Regarding food...<br><br>
Arawn
has a scroll with the Sustenance spell (MEL 5/EL 2) that<br>
he can
use to help extend our food supplies. It would provide<br>
8 FP
daily. He can also regularly cast Preservation to extend<br>
the
life of any fresh food supplies.<br><br>
He
also has 40 pieces of Elven Waybread to help out if we<br>
run
low on food. Scott, how many FP per Waybread?<br><br>
Regarding water...<br><br>
If we
begin to run low Arawn has two options - Ball Powers<br>
(Other/ Water) (a lot of water!) and he also has Sweeten Water<br>
(a
small amount for now but would grow quickly if cast<br>
regularly).<br><br>
Just
let me know if you'd like Arawn to use any of these<br>
abilities so I can give Scott details.<br><br>
Corsaya:<br><br>
Once
Ix and Zol Zim are returned to Sivas Arawn will<br>
Translocate Corsaya and himself to the edge of the Sacred<br>
Forest
(unless she has another place she'd prefer to be),<br>
cross
over so she can roam freely in a safe place surrounded<br>
by
Sidh/Neutral/Elder forces. He' ll also leave her gear<br>
there
as well and then return to board the ship.<br><br>
IC:<br><br>
[Kaz's
Cabin, 5:29 pm]<br>
"I do," Arawn calmly replied. "Though I can
understand...<br>
GM: Ack. Alfar are a diff
species yes. But Elf treat them<br>
as
uber Elf. IMHO. When I talked to Richard years<br>
ago in
email he uses the words glorified elf. But<br>
I can
see the argument that its NOT an elf. But in<br>
the MW
humans would see Alfar as Elf. Since so alike.<br>
As to
the old man he may have an issue with all pointy<br>
eared
folks or just elves. Who knows. :) In fact<br>
you
would I assume not show your ears. So how did he<br>
know? That is the mystery. As to FC so cast constantly<br>
unless
asleep. As to recasting it you may not know it fails<br>
as its
deep under water so would not be 'seen' any sign<br>
of
success or not even mana wise unless you are in the water<br>
itself
maybe. But one can tell based on generic speed of<br>
ship
if a boost was made unless there are already high winds.<br>
As to
cooking you'll have to remind me during trip for<br>
skill
use. I think Z also can cook. Cooking will have<br>
to be
done on deck the galley is too small except for small<br>
soups. Scroll - Others have tokens and such spells. I
mainly<br>
am
doing party food/water first. If run out will take<br>
rations and tokens, etc. For easy accounting I'll always<br>
prefer
party food/water. As to waybread I believe its<br>
same
as Foyson theft formula but if I recall I think its<br>
in
this case 40 for you?? But again I'm not worried<br>
about
it yet unless party starves or gets pirated<br>
by
food eating ants. As to water same thing. I won't know
until <br>
it
happens if need is needed. As to Corsaya she'd care<br>
less
about being in SF. If that makes you happy then so<br>
be
it. But she simply needs a forest and a place to<br>
stay
nearby. Sidh don't need to be there. In fact<br>
when
visited Ben'dar's ranch she liked it but also<br>
liked
Caladan's forest home north of his ranch in Maren<br>
City. Small enough forest and nice cabin for her to<br>
use as
a place of rest. But you can decide as it<br>
doesn't matter to her much. Let me know for spell use.<br>
I
normally don't edit player dialogue. But I believe you<br>
meant
If you don't mind to Ix? IF . Not I?<br><br>
From Z'leyra: [Re:
Supplies]<br>
Per suggestion,
Z'leyra's servant buys for and gets delivered<br>
to the
ship<br><br>
10 water barrels
filled with fresh clean water.<br>
.1 barrel of cheap
wine. 🍷 to be kept under lock and key.<br>
Food.. 1000 food
points of Travel rations with watertight boxes<br>
to store them
in.<br><br>
A hutch of half
dozen rabbits for Eagle food.🐇 A bale of<br>
greenery for
rabbit food.<br><br>
6 goats as food
for wolf.<br><br>
One keg of ale for
influencing those we meet purposes.<br>
😉<br>
GM: Ack. <br><br>

[New Stuff]<br><br>
[Marqi Frisda
23rd, 1636TH]<br><br>
[Time: Earlier
that afternoon]<br><br>
Arawn
speaks to Unali about the murder in the hold.<br><br>
Arawn
speaks gently, "A pity as we need answers though I can't<br>
blame them if they
did. If I discover otherwise and anything<br>
else of interest
during the journey I'll make sure to let you<br>
know. The same
with Damon. I'm sure he felt there was a reason<br>
to keep it out of
government hands but I'll have a talk with him<br>
shortly."<br><br>
[Ba'ru - Kaz's
Cabin]<br>
[Time: 6:20
pm]<br><br>
Kaz
speaks of Arawn's abilities.<br><br>
"I do," Arawn calmly replied. "Though I can understand
why<br>
you might sense me
as one. I had only hoped to politely correct<br>
the mistake. And I
could explain why but I do not think it would<br>
change your
perceptions. Only time and experience may change<br>
that. Perhaps one
day we might have the time and the pleasure.<br><br>
But it
is a wonderful innate talent you have, much like the<br>
Sidh's innate
talent for empathy or to sense and see magical<br>
auras. It would
appear we have much in common...<br><br>
And,
of course, out of respect for your wishes, I have ignored<br>
my innate talents
while hoping for the same measure of respect."<br><br>
He
smiled while speaking and continued to do so afterwards. It<br>
was a polite
smile, soft and thoughtful, though he expected Kaz<br>
to interpret it
otherwise. However the past might have poisoned<br>
the hermit's
outlook the man's isolation seemed to do little to<br>
heal or add to his
worldly wisdom, the opportunity for growth<br>
now replaced by
the painful feeding of solipsistic views.<br><br>
Kaz
glances at Arawn with little expression. He puts his<br>
tea mug down and
turns to the fire. This time of year fire<br>
is too much but
the man likes the warmth. "Humans have this<br>
hospitality
down. I respect it." Kaz turns from the<br>
fire and looks at
Arawn. "I will not hinder you in any<br>
way. I've
been...a victim way too long to have any faith<br>
in people..or
anything else." He glances toward Ix briefly.<br>
"This small
wonder has swayed me a bit. But decades of<br>
abuse is not
something to forget." He glances down at Zol<br>
Zim.
"If this one trusts you then you are probably a fine<br>
person." Glances back at Arawn. "But you have the
stink<br>
of death on
you. Not from this one. But from another.<br>
A dangerous
being. One should not trust that being or<br>
have it live
around you. It will only end in dread and<br>
death. Now
let's not all get sad here. Let's talk about<br>
the future of this
fine young lady!"<br><br>
Afterwards, shortly before their departure back to Sivas,<br>
Arawn took some
time to speak with the shamaness.<br><br>
"If you don't mind my asking, as you'll be traveling alongside<br>
me and my
companions, how do you navigate in this world? Is your<br>
vision partially
or fully impaired? I only ask as we'll be<br>
facing challenges
alongside each other and it would be wise for<br>
us to know what
limitations you might have, in as well as out<br>
of
battle?"<br><br>

Update....Saturday...<br><br>
GM: A short update
but all good progress. I'm done with<br>
all sheets except for the last 4 people listed below<br>
still waiting for gear info. Notice the Roster v2?<br>
After 20 years I updated it slightly. The reason I use<br>
..periods is emails are common to strip tabs and so<br>
columns in this case would mess up. So I use periods<br>
to pad the columns to be aligned.<br><br>
Finally got supplies list. I'll take as is. But this<br>
means no cooking supplies or repair supplies. So be<br>
warned if ship needs repairs during a storm and there<br>
is NO way to teleport to get supplies. As I said teleport<br>
will be dangerous at times at sea. One and only warning<br>
given! I'll take any more supplies till 7/1 in case<br>
more urgent needs are done. As said aside from bunks,
blankets<br>
a few plates, soup cauldron, lots of ropes there is not<br>
much of anything else aside from rigging on sails now<br>
on ship. So anything else is a bonus. I'm a detailed<br>
guy so prefer to have as detailed a supply list as I<br>
can but to not everyone is as weird as me. :)<br>
Kiet is buying hammocks as well.<br><br>
So agenda! I'm off Thursday/Friday. So Friday I'll<br>
roll the first leg of encounters for the first trip<br>
rrom Sivas to first city. I'll process Navigation and<br>
storm and wind data. I'll try to get this in a new<br>
update on Saturday. But at this point even though we<br>
have a minimal supply list and still waiting for gear<br>
info from some we can move on. Gear isn't critical<br>
until reach Vahear then it will be too late.<br><br>
So will try next update Saturday or next Tue/wed if<br>
possible. Stay tuned! We move on!<br>
