It must go well with horse meat flavored ice cream.

Actually, chaos vs law is more how willing the person is willing to follow rules, regardless of who makes them. It could be manmade laws, divine laws or even a personal code of honor. So a crossroads demon who makes complicated contracts to trick people into giving over their soul would be highly lawful because they have their set of rules that they follow, even if they are pretty sketchy. A chaotic person would be more likely to ignore an inconvenient rule if it clashes with their desires. Chaotic good person will ignore a law that persecutes people but is fine with those that protect the peace. Chaotic evil person probably just thinks that the person who makes the rules is the person who has the power to force everyone to submit to them and once they can't do that, they will be quickly overthrown. Chaotic neutral people just randomly do whatever seems interesting at the time.

I have yet to encounter basashi ice cream. Squid ink ice cream is not so rare though.
There's nothing more humiliating then getting your ass kicked by a human sword. Shame on you, orc.

A note on alignment:
The alignment you have on your character sheet is your presumed starting point when you enter the game. But your actual alignment is going to be determined by what you do in game. If your sheet says lawful good but your actions are chaotic evil, then you're chaotic evil (which wouldn't be the best thing to be in this campaign, since evil characters are going to have a harder time of it).

LOL. I had a D&D group where one of the fighters had a singing sword that was always giving away his location when he tried to hide. He couldnt get rid of it though because it ego possessed him.
I'll let Liadan and Mr. Orc make that clarification before I have Baldy agree to meet the leader. He probably means Liadan, but I think Baldy would definitely be concerned by the phrase 'like I tell elf.' As long as she doesn't think the orcs and dark elves will be in the same camp, she'll see the orc leader.
EDIT - Oh, never mind that. If I assume the whole thing was translated, it's obvious the orc means Liadan. Editing my post so as not to slow down progression.

I almost edited Aliron's words.
But they were true to his view and his character.
Why would I edit?
Because we are talking of killing Burnbright's mother and burning her remains in front of her.
I thought of making Bressel the one to point this out, but decided it wasn't right for him either.
Mother or not, He has seen the death and pain she has caused to a lot of people.

The army awaits nightfall.
(And I got kept accidentally scrolling past Ireth's posts because I thought they were mine, so I put a crown on my kitty!

Yeah
I scroll past the cat avatar, then I'm like "Hey, wait that wasn't me."
Sent INT checks to SP. I rolled after posting, in case a valkyrie or a barbarian with a monk friend and monk trainer may have heard something about demon exorcism (or beating demons out).
Nissa = fail, but Baldy rolled a 23. Non-prime, but I PM'd the rolls just in case.

I guess, it won't be as simple as Zoran pulling a paper out that says,
"Exorcizamus te, omnis immundus spiritus, omnis satanica potestas, omnis incursio infernalis adversarii, omnis legio, omnis congregatio et secta diabolica... Ergo, draco maledicte et omnis legio diabolica, adjuramus te ... cessa decipere humanas creaturas, eisque æternæ perditionìs venenum propinare... Vade, satana, inventor et magister omnis fallaciæ, hostis humanæ salutis... Humiliare sub potenti manu Dei; contremisce et effuge, invocato a nobis sancto et terribili nomine... quem inferi tremunt... Ab insidiis diaboli, libera nos, Domine. Ut Ecclesiam tuam secura tibi facias libertate servire, te rogamus, audi nos."
(An exorcism in latin from Supernatural)

Maybe. Roll an INT check?
I think it would be interesting (if the INT checks work) if what the character remembers depends on who s/he would have had contact with. Liadan is a priestess while Baldhart trained with monks for martial arts purposes. Maybe this is why she thinks beating a demon out of someone would work?

What about the demon Calexa summoned, and whom Liadan and Ankari made that pact with? Surely Liadan would remember THAT. Would that not be useful information? It would at least be proof that demons are real. (Though whether she'd want to reveal that is a good question regardless.)

Most of the party knows that demons are real, unlike the average person who kind of believes demons are real, in a superstitious sense, but ends up thinking creatures like kobolds are demons and probably would be skeptical of claims of demons like the one Calexa summoned.
Liadan was part of the pact with that demon, but the experience wouldn't really tell her anything about how to cast a demon out of a possessed person (if indeed that is what is happening with Aslaug - no one knows whether that's true or not). That said, the demon that you made the pact with might very well know, if there was some way to summon it....
