Unnatural State (ooc and questions Vll)

[Yrkoon]

Yrkoon delivers another tasty post! I love it!

Yep!

[ChubbyPixie]

Sorry for the delay. I got on there to post just now and was updating Kiri's HP total and... his name and all his stats disappeared. (The entire Character Information section got wiped. ) Trying to figure that out.

Weird! You might be able to reconstruct it with info from this thread: viewtopic.php?p=250608#p250608

Check under Character Status and Experience Points.

You're a hero amongst men. I knew your meticulous-record-keeping-bordering-on-mania would pay off someday.
Hilariously, I don't remember my Alignment, Age, Weight or what Languages I speak, but what can you do?

After 9 years, it was only a matter of time.

Neutral Good, I think. In his mid 20s. Heavy. A smattering of the Asian equivalents in the Hyborian Age...

The Khitan, Kambujans, Meruvians, and Kusanese are civilized Easterners. They are the progenitors of Ancient China, Feudal Japan, Tibet and Kampuchea.

It's a tough call who's more awesome - Kiri or Inferno.

[Inferno]

Ha. Kiri! That Spider Climb is hard to beat.

Perfect, thx. Well, if he's not exactly the same as he was, he's close enough. There was some "cell memory" in the entry fields that, in addition to these clues, helped round him out. Although for Encumbrance I just put "can carry a house," which, I believe, is accurate.

One thing I will note is that I didn't remember what level(s) he was without looking. This is a testament to the excellence of your games, Inferno; the level progression is secondary to the story and character development.

(Side note: That being said, please don't level drain me again. That's just hurtful and mean.)

If this goes to Kiri's head he'll start walking up walls cartoon style while doing finger guns...

Thanks. I'm grateful to have players that feel that way.

Pfft. I'll take bundles of snakeskin any day of the week.

Encumbrance is important in terms of its effect on Movement Rate. And we have Kiri's Move Rate from the Character Status stat blocks.

[Inferno]

Is everyone amenable to this?...

Cruloc's words remind him of his oath to Jebbal Sag while fighting the one-eyed goat-man giant. He says, Thank you, brother Cruloc. The green snake is the one he dealt the death blow to, so better to offer to the god of beasts. He says to the group, I want to take this snake, if you'll let me. I will give five gold coins to each friend for it. The other snake we can cook. But we will need wood.

[Inferno]

We go back to the forest for healing and cooking? Or stay here? Then I will burn this green snake with torches for my god.

Hi jemmus,
Transferring one of the gigantic serpents out of the tower, and the city, intact would be a marvel of engineering and logistics. Best to sacrifice it here, assuming Torix's colleagues are in agreement.

Kiri is unconcerned and will resist being paid. He would have just left it to rot.

[Yrkoon]

Cruloc too will refuse payment.
I reckon we cook the snake here, then move back to the forest for water after resting in the tower for a while. Our food will now last longer than our water. Virtually everyone needs healing. Let's heal up here before daring whatever lies between us and the pathway up the cliff.
Can Amethu spot any water sources with the spyglass?

[Inferno]

Our food will now last longer than our water.

The giant eggs are filled with liquid!

Can Amethu spot any water sources with the spyglass?

Yes. Thankfully the telescope is facing east. Within the canyon, a lake lies just beyond the ruins:

[Yrkoon]

Right.
I propose we hole up here until we are in fighting shape, and then make a foray to the lake to refill our waterskins if that becomes necessary.
If water or food does not become a problem, we can further explore the tower.

By the way, can Amethu cast Create Food and Water?

[ravenn4544]

Not completely. After resting he can can create water and purify food and water

Holeing up here makes sense to me
