From Chris: [Re: joining game]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab><OOC - Hi
everybody and well met. My name is Chris, and I am new to the
PBEM. Thank you all for keeping this game alive and for allowing me
to join. I'm still working on my application, and just
getting as much information digested as possible. This is a massive
world, and I have so much to learn.
Mr. Adams is helping me with my character, as well. It has
been so long time since I have played the game, I really feel
nervous. I played when I was a kid, and to be honest we didn't know
what we were doing back then... LOL.
Thank you again and hopefully will be chatting more with you all
soon!>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. First no mr adams stuff! Make me feel old! :) Scott
or Longshot is fine. :) No need to be nervous. 99% of pbem is pure
role playing. 1% is the character sheet stuff. The sheet is
there to guide but its mostly rping. :) Did you get my last email
asking if you want to do pc or me? Since in discord now if want to chat
let me know voice or via DM/email. Welcome aboard! As to the
app its only 4-5 basic questions. I've used the info only for
google searches in case a player fades away and can't find them. :)

From Raddok: [Re: Actions]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>[I already have
over a dozen discord channels, which I mostly don't use, except for FXIV
& ESO. It's a great way to ask questions & keep in touch, &
easy to link into other sites, such as the P&P website. My vote is
yes. I assume the game itself goes on per email, as before? Also, I have
an apartment inspection coming up Monday, so am going to be busy.]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>{my apologies -
you can change snake-spiders to snake-apes - or not - I had forgotten

they were like – lol}

<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>Welcome aboard,
Chris! Looking forward to interacting in the game. And no need to be
nervous. It took me a bit to adjust to the game again as well. But I'm
sure Scott and everyone else will help you out. Just focus on RPing and
I'm sure you'll be fine:)
<x-tab> </x-tab>
GM: Ack. Yep now your one of the most active players!
To the others John is dealing with Flu so a bit unable to post for
now. He will return once health comes back to him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
<x-tab> </x-tab>[New
Stuff]
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Ma 3rd,
1636TH]<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Time:
4:45 am – Besam, Eastern Lands]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Fremea sees all the new lights and wonders if she should go
to the cave and warn everyone, but then realizes that could be a bad
thing also, because she would remove her surprise for just in case. She
gets close to the cave to find out what is going. Before she does, she
makes sure her invis is still good.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
As she nears, she can hear more of that language, and then
the translation comes outside. It seems that they are wanting to check
all arrows. She doesn't remember if she shot through the portal, but is
pretty sure she didn't, however it would be best to not make herself
known at this time and instead flies back up to a good place to rest on
the trees and watch things.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Kiet’s busy trying to finish off a snake. He’s busy
with that because he doesn’t want to get bitten!
<x-tab> </x-tab>
But he hears the funny looking dwarf say something that
simply can’t be true. His neck cracks as he snaps his head around
to look at the smooth faced visitor. It can’t be. It’s the
stuff of whispers, rumors and legends. The Eastern Lands?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
There were rumors about red skinned slaves, but Kiet didn’t
lend any credence to them. Certainly there were no mention of
dwarves, especially follicle challenged ones.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
In Marentian, Kiet speaks out "My people are known to
travel to this land to take slaves and trade."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Dorhak listens to Kiet a bit absently and this also seems to
confirm the notion that Lemasans here are raiders.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Kiet begins to get upset he can't find the snake. It
is no where near the bags or horses. He wonders if the thing found
a small hole to venture into?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Raddok is willing to go along with the offered compromise
& hopes others agree. Although he doesn't want to carry an
unconscious man, he thinks he wouldn't mind dragging one tied up in a
blanket. He grins in anticipation - head-first or feet-first? Nah - he's
better not let the head drag -better his backside or belly. He wonders if
someone could wake up, & if his sheathed weapons would be in the
dragged raider's range - not good. Better be tied up first & a sling
made from a rope over chest & under shoulders, with raider's hands
tied behind the back maybe? He could loop the sling & wear one end at
waist/hip level.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Thinking about it, how many were there to be carried? Maybe
just sling them over the horses & tie hands & feet to stirrups or
under horse's belly. Then don't have to carry at all; horses could even
carry two of the blighters, if necessary - much better idea! He speaks
up. "May we sling these raiders over their horses, & tie them to
the saddles - they can't escape if they wake up, & we'll get you back
to your home faster. I'll be glad to lead a horse or two." He
sheathes his mace & shield in preparation. As he does, he spots the
ring on his finger & decides quickly that he'll forget it exists -
for the time being. He sends a brief prayer to the gods in general that
the hidden party members stay well out of sight, if Dorhak doesn't call
them in.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Has that snake been found yet, Kiet? It's creepy that
you can't find it." Despite himself, Raddok feels the hair along his
neck & spine start to rise.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Dorhak is completely embarrassed to have to stoop so low as
to speak his sacred language to, to, a heretic. Debasing. But
at least it worked. He didn’t want to harm these people over a
misunderstanding.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
To Gnorff, he shifts back to Dwarf Elder. "Good
lad. We'll be along after we sort out these thieves."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
In Marentian, he calls out to the group "All
right! We have some work to do. Z'leyra, would you talk to
the horses and let them know we will need them to haul their former
masters. Kiet! You, Mournath and anybody else that knows how
to tie things up do so with the prisoners on the horses. I’ll be
double damned if I’m gonna haul them on my back! The rest of you
help hoist them on the horses."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
where did that little faerry get off to.
Hmmmm.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Looks like we are going to go meet some new
friends."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Following Dorhak's instructions Z'leyra sheaths her sword
and goes to talk to the horses and deal with their tack and how to tie
the prisoners on the backs of the horses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Gnorf leans toward Dorhak, “glad you agree. We will
wait outside.” He then whispers a bit low, “all female humans you
live with are..like that?” He nods to Z'leyra and motions with hands
noticing a figure of muscles and using heavy arms. “Our females are
bit more..docile.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
To Z'leyra the horses grumble as best a horse can.
They complain they were due a rest after a long day of moving. But
after a couple minutes Z'leyra convinces them to finally agree.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Kiet will help tie the prisoners and hoist them on the
horses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"Aye, Cap'n."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
At least their are horses to carry the dead weight.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Kiet uses his teamster skills to best fit the men on the
horses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Raddok is greatly relieved at Dorhak's orders (Yay for
having those horses!) & joins Z'leyra, using his teamster skills to
assist in securing the sleeping raiders to the horses, and watching the
ground around his & the horses' feet for the elusive snake.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Pyan considers Dorhak's words. Pyan considered himself quite
good a knot tying back home but seeing the sailors working the rigging
he's not so sure of his skills.... He decides help tie up the prisoners.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
For Pyan he helps greatly by storing gear and hauling the
sleepers to the horses in main cave.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
"You may as well wait until after we make the
deals. I would wonder why so many foreigners from a ship had horses
so quickly, especially good horses." Dorhak replies to Raddok on the
horses.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Fremea sat listening to all the back and forth on what to
do. She wondered if she should speak up on anything, but really didn't
have any ideas that would help out, so she stayed silent. One thing she
could agree upon though is that she would definitely be better off as a
silent scout and watcher for when the action was needed rather than with
the party directly. She thought it would be interesting to disguise
herself as a dwarf, knowing she could get the look of one, but never the
smell.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Besides if she did that, she would not be able to have any
of her things with her, so being unseen is much better. Of course she
will have to be careful too and make sure she is watching Unali's back at
the same time, though shouldn't be too difficult.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Finally she spots the weird no-beard dwarf leave the cave
and order his allies to group up in a circle around cave. She uses
this chance to enter back into the cave. Unseen.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Fremea does make an offer though, "I can transmute some
paper, or a plant into looking like shackles that can even make the right
noise for shackles, but would be easy to rip off or break out of. That
way no one would mistake them or see through them."
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Over the next 10-15 minutes the party goes to move prisoners
to horses and pack their bags. It is quickly learned that best to
place men on horses outside as the cave entrance is too small and they'd
fall off. The cave is then cleared out of gear and items left
behind.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Kiet does one finally pass with lantern for that elusive
snake but figures it escaped.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Outside Dorhak frowns. While Dorhak carries mace and
shield and is dressed in a light part of tunic and pants the other
Besamar here are all men in loin cloths! He hopes they don't bend
or wind reveals things – especially if they are hairless up top they may
be hairless all over the body! Disgusting.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
These dwarves are carrying clubs and spears and at least 2
are carrying crossbows. Dorhak notices a lot more than expected and
realizes that must be the reinforcements Fremea mentioned. But they
look more like farmers than warriors.
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Time:
5:02 am – Besam, Eastern Lands]
<x-tab> </x-tab>
With prisoners ready to be transported and party has all
weapons sheathed – except Fremea who is yet to be seen – the party moves
out.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Gnorf leads the way and the group is lead through light
forest away from the cave. As the terrain begins to lower its angle
it becomes more flat and less prone to chaotic terrain of obstacles that
can be tripped on.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
<x-tab> </x-tab>[Time: 5:37 am
– Besam, Eastern Lands]
<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab>
</x-tab>
During the trip the Lemasans wake up and try to struggle but are
prevented from escape easily.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
The Besamar have been quiet as they carry torches and
surround the party. By now Fremea is visible but avoids being seen as she
flies from tree to tree. Finally a couple of lights are seen in the
distance as the party nears Gnorfs village. The village is probably
3 or 4 dozen huts. There are two more Besamar dwarves on patrol
watching the village. But it seems like the village is asleep.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Gnorf raises a hand and ends up about a mile away.
“Far enough! We will take the horses and prisoners.
Since you refuse to remove arms you will remain here. Who will
enter the village with me? That representative will be required to
disarm. This is for our safety of our families.”
<x-tab> </x-tab>
As the dwarves take the horses and prisoners into the
village Gnorf waits for a reply. The party watches the dwarves
quietly take the horses and move to a medium sized hut. Probably a make
shift prison or shack for supplies. The prisoners are tossed inside
and 4 guards are posted.
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Gnorf becomes impatient, “my ale is getting warm!
Hurry up and decide!”
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM:
Actions? Comments?
<x-tab> </x-tab>
Next update...Saturday?
<x-tab> </x-tab>GM: Wanted
to do more But its almost 2am and I'm sleepy. :) Wanted to get this
out so I'm done. I noticed 3 posts never came to me for some reason
the last 3 on archives. Not sure why. So if you sent a email
or post and I never got it let me know. Looks like we have several
already on discord. I hope all who want to be there can. I'll
try next update Saturday since this will be out Tuesday
technically. Also wanted to mention with my niece who lives with me
back to college she may use my pc for work. That could delay
updates. But we shall see. Welcome Chris to game!
