Amun draws her sword and inspects the blade, feeling strangely comfortable, at home in her traditional role as a sword for hire without any real options.

"Only one. What would we expect to meet out here, and can I hit it with my sword?"

Andron lazily floats in the soupy pink mists, eyes wide in childlike wonder. "Psychosomatic kinesis ... fascinating." He experiments with moving through the floyd by simple mental impulse. "Sorry, what was the question? Oh, right. I am ready."

Torbath

Torbath will practice mentally pushing off and then stopping and then trying a reverse to return to the starting point.

Feanol

"I do have one question. What do you know about how magic works here? It might be helpful as I'm an MU, and of little use outside of that."

Dex Check 3D6 vs 11: [3d6]=12

Con Check 4D6 vs 10: [4d6]=14

Feanol will begin to wonder if this adventure is for her.

After a while, Theo notices his comrades trying to maneuver through the floyd and figures that he probably ought to try the same.

Theo observes and worries about Maag and his magic user companions in the soup of the floyd. Still, he sees their movement, Gimble's vaulting, and kicks launces....

Alordan pulls himself back from his day dreaming, wondering how he could get so distracted? "It must be because nothing has tried to kill us in days..." he thinks.

WT.....?

Pleased to be in a safe and comfortable spot for a change, the group sits around the tavern table listening to Andronichishche pontificate on the mysterious Ethereal Plane. The brutish female warrior Amun continues to sneer as they talk, unsure why anyone would willingly travel into such a confusing environ in the first place.

In between their earlier study breaks, the Boar-man tavern keeper Marlaman gathers the remaining group together at their private table, approaching the subject he brought up earlier.

“Amun says you folks might be looking for a little job to do before you leave us. Is that so? Or does the call of your island exploration take precedence?”

“Only reason I ask, is because………I might know a couple of guys looking for some help. Nobody who comes in here will have anything to do with them anymore, but I figured you folks might be willing to trade your skills to lend a hand. They’re……ummmmmmm…….treasure hunters, I suppose. Best I can describe em’, anyway.”


Actions?

Alordan AC3 22/22
Torbath (M3) AC8 18/18 RM, CL, DM, 1st 2/2 2nd 1/1 (top of backpack) Comet AC:7 4/4]
Aliendron AC10 17/17 (CL4) 1st 5/5 2nd 4/4 (MU3) RM, CL, DM, 1st 2/2 2nd 1/1
Feanol (MU3) AC:10 14/14 RM, CL, DM 4/4 1st 2/2 2nd
Theo AC:5 13/13 (Sword)
Amun (F3) AC:2 33/33
Magg AC4 20/20


Should we do -1000XP for the first player to mention something that never actually happened. :lol:

One thing that may be necessary going forward is a stricter policy on allocating healing resources to certain NPCs.... :twisted:

Problem was, they were our ride back. :?

I assume we have no recollection of events?

In that case ...

He gazes at Theo briefly, as if the homely ranger just uttered a stark ephipany. "You are right, Mr. Theo ... I just realized what this place can truly offer me, and if I return to the island, I may not have another chance."

"In the Ethereal Market I am but one of many bizarre creatures. On Oerth, I am at best an outcast. At worst, hunted as a monster. Short of a wish, there must be a wizard here capable of changing me back to my original form. Such a request would not be cheap, however."
