Probs of extra healing can be taken in 3 doses.

Sorry in advance for this... but Winnie's got 99 probs but a healing potion aint one of them.

So, yeah.
Anyway, is everyone okay with Bianca getting 6 gp and the flowers and everyone else getting 142 gp?

LOL! It sounds so pathetic when you read it that way!

auto correct strikes again!Sorry in advance for this... but Winnie's got 99 probs but a healing potion aint one of them.
I'm fine with that split
This won't affect that, but Bluehorse: Winnie can go halves on the flowers with Bianca, if she wants. (142+6=148/2= 74gp each) Or is that a Tribute/memorial? (in which case Winnie will keep the cash.)
Re: Expedition: Bianca to the North Woods - 03 Aug 2021
It was my idea to use it as a kind of donation to the grove and to use them to spread the seeds hoping the seeds will take so they will begin to grow wild. more flowers for medicine later.Rusty Tincanne wrote:auto correct strikes again!Sorry in advance for this... but Winnie's got 99 probs but a healing potion aint one of them.

Willow is fine with the extra coin. Inventory updated.

At least, nothing putting it in some hot water won't fix.

Considering Mother Lita grew the entire Witchwood magically, it stands to reason that she can grow Tormentil seeds to fruition as well. She has no interest in going into retail business, so this will work to supply the Meetinghouse so that it no longer has a cap on the number of potions available there. I'll update the witchwood that sworn followers of Beith can go there and get one free potion before each expedition.Bluehorse wrote:It was my idea to use it as a kind of donation to the grove and to use them to spread the seeds hoping the seeds will take so they will begin to grow wild. more flowers for medicine later.

Does that work as a tribute to Bianca? Just trying to figure out if Winnie is pitching in on that. If Bianca is getting 150 XP from a level tribute-thing, then Winnie will keep a full 142gp.
Re: Expedition: Bianca to the North Woods - 03 Aug 2021
No, I'm giving a generous IC effect. No XP award on top of that.
Re: Expedition: Bianca to the North Woods - 03 Aug 2021
This is more what I was going for actually, so thanks for that one. I wanted something with the potential to benefit everyone for the long game.Marullus wrote:No, I'm giving a generous IC effect. No XP award on top of that.

That's cool. Winnie will be happy to be in on that and share the gold with her coven-sister. BH, give Bianca 74gp.
Re: Expedition: Bianca to the North Woods - 03 Aug 2021
okay. So soon as the Dice Roller is back up and running I will correct the GP in my inventory to reflect the 6gp 74gp (Thank you, Rusty) rather than the 125. I believe that wraps us up for this venture. Well done everyone

Oh, my. Rusty's rendition of Winnie's song is a thing of joy.
We may not get any XP out of it, but I hope Marullus lavishes Winnie with all the XPs.
I'm still chuckling at the verses about Clint.

Yes! I can actually hear the tune when I read that one, it is hilarious! I absolutely love it! Winnie needs to drink more often! Would Bianca or someone be allowed to make a second attempt or is this a 1 shot per adventure deal?

Thanks! I was so nervous about it. I'm no songster or poet, so you'd think writing bad poetry would be easy, but it made it even harder. I'm really glad you liked it! (Writing about Clint from the perspective of a teenage, free-love-hippie-cultist was really fun. I really wanted to make him more central but I also knew she would have wanted to point out that, should a green dragon come calling on Gaul, the town can blame the mage that publicly shamed and embarrassed her in the tavern. Though with her failure, that's likely to backfire or no one will remember.)

Regrettably, Winnie's tale of pacifistic witchery will be ill-received by the populace. Please write it up accordingly (as it can still be referenced by other PCs)....
She entered the Golden Tooth Tavern as Regis the Gray was starting a long, humorous ballad, so she ordered a bottle of Southern wine and drank while waiting for the end. By the time the ballad ended she had imbibed 2/3rd of the bottle and, between the alcohol and the minstrel's jovial tune, her own mood was brighter. She asked to borrow Regis's lute again and struck up a jaunty tune, making the words up as she sang.
Just sit back my friends and I'll sing you a song
About seven companions and an animal throng
They went to the north, just traipsing along
in the wild-wild, wildering North Woods
Day one, as we went, barely time to look back
Our group was beset by a wild baboon pack
We fended them off with a swhick and a whack
In the wild-wild, wildering North Woods
With apes all dead or fleeing from us,
We started back northwards, but don't have a fuss!
Later that night we camped in the moss
In the wild-wild, wildering North Woods
We woke to the screams of our very own guards
With weaseljays rushing them at them real hards
Again we defends ourselves from their barbs
In the wild-wild, wildering North Woods
Later that day we were... She stopped short. No. That won't do, will it? Basically, there are a LOT of weird creatures out there that will try to kill you. Weaseljays and Bug-bears tried for us. But Halle, Berra, the Grizzly Woman and Clint... She paused again. Her words slurred a bit as she continued. Clint...He's yummy ladies. He killed all those bug-bears all on his own! Real strong and brave. I'll tell you more about him. She started strumming the lute again.
Clint is the sort of guy you could like
Not just in day, but also the night
He's just the right size, and just the right height
I don't know if he dances as well as he fights, but...
Clint paid for our passage across the river
A beautiful woman... well he had to sleep with her
She seemed mighty pleased - the next morning she shivered
Then said her goodbyes and went down the river
She paused her singing again, but kept strumming absentmindedly until someone in the crowd started laughing. Oh. Right!
We'd been told of a mama green dragon, turned mean
'Cause Earc blinded her babies, unable to see
And Amistad killed them both to a tee
And now she might come a looking down here just to see...
So we walked down the river and found an old house
That had sunk in the muck of a bog, and a mouse
warned us of of ladies with snakes as their scouts
they turn folks to mud and they live in that house!
But Clint would protect us so we went straight in
We ate all their food and our heads they did spin
They read us our fortunes without our askin'
And all we could do was... Well we just sat there and grinned
She stopped again, suddenly realizing how wrong everything was going. She stumbled out the door and vomited on the footstep of the Stancell Green Honorary Latrine.
When she regained her senses, she would have just left if she hadn't left her backpack and staff inside, so she hefted herself and crept back inside, slipping into a booth without looking. She held her face in her hands for a few minutes, and when she finally looked up, she was surprised to find herself face to face with Fingers. Oh. Hi. I didn't see you here. Don't you own that shop in town? Sorry. That was awful. I shouldn't have tried making it up on the spot. Not with a half bottle of wine in my belly. I really want to get out of Gaul again. Especially after that, err... performance. Ugh. What do you have planned? Do you need a witch? I have a guard dog. Do you like dogs, I hope? She promised not to drink on an empty stomach again.
I'll deduct the cost of a bottle of wine when the roller is back up and running.
