Oh... you have a good point, as some will need checks next round. If that's what you intend with Cadell and he already has his bard skill (does he already have that?), then yeah, it makes sense to exalt now.

Yes, that's exactly it. :)

Also, where exactly is that rope? Did the end of it go across the gap in the stairs/docks? I'm not sure if Liadan will be able to reach it at all next turn, even if she passes her DEX check and doesn't end up in the sea.

Yes, has to be between the stairs and the docks, based on where Aldar is. If she doesn't make it, there are apparently therapeutic benefits of swimming in salt water.*


*Studies on the therapeutic benefits of swimming in salt water were 99.99% fish demon-free. YMMV.

WAIT! Batos could have gotten to where keit was, if i change a few things up! How about the alpha female took Batos to a silver eagle (said eagle knows the alpha and is freinds with it since they hunted together and because it is bonded with celestia's sister) who flew with Batos towards said sister who lived in the north because the alpha couldn't have taken him all that way. However, when the eagle and Batos set down to rest one time, they were attacked by Wargs because they were in their turf. you know what happens then lol

That might work... though I still wonder why the eagle would take Batos all the way to the north rather than just to a safer place in the south. There's got to be a specific reason there. (Also, how big is a silver eagle? Would it be able to carry a wolf pup that far?)

LOL,
Aliron will not be going into the water.
His mother's lullaby haunts him.

"Hush, child. The darkness will rise from the deep, carry you down to sleep."
Sea monster looks alittle to dark.

(New people; Aliron's motto is in this song.

"Loyalty,loyalty, loyal only to me.")

"Down there in the darkness
Centuries of evil
And his arms will take you deeper and deeper
God lives under water
We all seek his kingdom
And you feel his embrace, sweeter and sweeter."

EMBRACE THE FISH DEMONS, ALIRON.

silver eagles are near extinct and they are pretty big -roughly eight feet in wingspan since i checked that book i read.... so it would be able to carry batos pretty far. as for why -Celestia knew Arrcafah would not expect her to send Batos north.

Baldhart found it quite relaxing. If only the GM hadn't rolled a 1 on his d10,000. I had no idea the odds of encountering fish demons during a theraputic swim were so low.

In a way, Baldhart is really very lucky!

Bressel could sing this, for those of us from the north.

Rise - YouTube

Rise! Rise! oh rise, with northern sun to warm us, and the north star as our guide,...
We shall stand, we shall conquer, we shall rise!.
As long as one stands, the north shall rise!



Aliron had the lullaby sung to him, he might not like his father, or even Aunt, I doubt he would kill them unless they crossed the line.

Maye we shouldn't sing to the fishies to rise? lol.

If Nissa's attack worked, the fish won't get upstairs. There's fire in the way.

Um... I don't know how to save Batos though. I THINK Baldhart will be occupied for the next turn or two.

@SP, I know (from when we did the 100 foot climb) that the STR rolls are for 30 feet because you thought rolling every 10 was overkill. (And since Baldy is armored and can actually fall from a low roll, I appreciate that!) But is her speed still 10 feet per turn, meaning she'll simply be going up for another turn or two?

Can't stealth edit from work, but I just thought of a way to save Batos. Still, my point about Baldy being occupied for quite some time still stands. Swim, Batos! Swim! Help is eventually on the way, but don't wait for it!

Thanks Sp, That saves an edit, I thought I had mentioned it when I took those 3 paces I must have miscalculated. I will be more careful in future. :)

Lovely move with Nissa that may well help us, and im sure the rope will assist you all somehow, However we are going to have to get thinking to save Batos, Im free to move now and I have no idea how I could do it.

As for the spider poison, If it's frowned upon im not too bothered, I could even salvage some somehow in order to research it.
My god is Laurus, Who is an evil diety, and the only reason Aldar follows her is because he is hungry for knowledge and the ability to speak the ancient language of the dragons appeals greatly to him. Ohh that reminds me Sp I was talking to you a while back about it, and the back story says that there isnt any dragons left in the world, however you mentioned something about possibly being able to find some eggs or younglings at some point, however I wasn’t sure if you would write it in at some point possibly (probably the best way) or should I do some sort of side trek at some point in the story where it would be possible?

Just curious, what's the scale of the current battle maps? Are the squares 10ft by 10ft, or 5 by 5? Just wondering who will possibly be in the 60ft range when Cadell's singing takes effect next round.

Wait... what... why is Keit drowning? I think the failed check effect remains unknown until there's a GM post. The 'aaaaah SPLASH' in my roll was only a guess. SP said Baldhart can climb by taking the escape route throu the broken rail, so it's possible that we're not forced to fall overboard.

I mean, if you want Keit in the water fro dramatic reasons, that's cool... but does anyone else have a rope? (Hopefully Nissa's bombing stops fish demons from noticing Keit. It's wading depth, so maybe they're not in a place to swim under the fire to get to her? Batos... his predicamant is another story.)
