Start of #KHS buffer: Sat Oct 11 21:22:26 2008 [18:08:02] [Two days later, the gates of Fallcrest rise above you as you return, victorious, and a considerable measure richer than when you entered. It's a very, very good morning.] [18:08:06] [Session Start] [18:09:25] [Scracht that] [18:09:29] ( I forgot ) [18:09:56] [You have just defeated the white dragon Szartharrax.] [18:09:57] [ [18:10:11] [And you are victorious. And a considerable measure richer than when you entered.] [18:10:16] [Session Start] [18:12:33] * Steddha spits once more, wiping her brow. "... what a day." [18:13:07] [Szartharrax lies dead and miraculously headless [18:15:30] ] [18:15:34] * Ahzgrit mutters darkly to himself. [18:16:31] Dragons. Can't stand the bloody things. Can't just die like a good lizard. [18:18:39] * A quick examination of the area reveals a treasure chest behind one of the pillars, now that things have calmed down [18:19:06] Hey a chest! Lets dig in? [18:19:10] It's dead now. The people of Fallcrest can relax and not worry about kobolds or dragons for the near future. [18:19:35] And we don't have to worry about starving for a while. [18:20:27] * Ahzgrit gives the dead dragon a swift kick. [18:20:39] Checking for traps. [18:20:58] * Dresdin looks the chest over, but can't locate any traps. [18:21:24] Looks all clear. It would be rather ironic that traps finish us off instead of the dragon. [18:22:00] * Steddha grunts again. "If there's a hammer in there, I want it." [18:25:30] Never hurts to have an extra dwarven arrow. [18:28:15] Lets take a look see [18:28:31] * Dresdin opens the box [18:29:03] * Steddha walks over to have a look as well. [18:29:04] * Dresdin pops the chest open... [18:29:32] * Steddha sees a glorious beautiful glint of a flat surface. Six of them. With a nice, sturdy handle. [18:29:38] * It's a hammer. [18:30:06] * Dresdin, however, notices gold. A nice stash of gold, in lots and lots of discs [18:30:29] * Beneath all of this, there's a green dragon hide, what Goldcap asked you to get him. [18:31:55] * Steddha gets this glimmer in her eye like she just saw Moradin himself. In the nude. Carrying four tankards of ale. And the hammer she's seeing. [18:32:01] * Dresdin spends some time carving up the dragon for possible useful materials [18:32:16] * One face of the hammer has a stylized face with an open mouth with pointy teeth. [18:33:03] * Carving up the dragon is messy messy work. [18:33:09] Good for you, girl. [18:33:10] * But, it gets done. [18:33:15] * Ahzgrit goes to count the gold. [18:34:43] * Steddha reaches for the hammer with an uncharacteristically girlish giggle. [18:35:07] * A careful and dwarfy count reveals that the chest contains 236 GP [18:41:13] * Steddha hefts the new hammer with a smile, and then looks around. "Best damn job I've had in a while!" [18:41:51] Well, we still have the bounty to claim. [18:42:55] I wonder how much the head of a white dragon is worth. [18:46:31] All right, so are we set to go back. [18:46:46] * After some examination, you determine that the hammer is a Lifedrinking Hammer, knwon for transfering life energy fgrom those you vanquish in combat, to you [18:46:46] Far as I know. I'm a happy girl. What about the rest of you? [18:47:59] Getting chomped by dragons, and clubbed by goblins you deserve it. [18:48:06] I say we get out of this place. [18:49:37] * Steddha grins a bit. "Ale for everyone, ah?" [18:50:41] I'll drink to that. [18:50:52] Sounds great, lets go [18:51:09] We have to return a dragon skin. [18:51:25] * Dresdin heads back to town [18:51:45] * Danith levitates the dragon's head with mage hand and carries a handful of kobold ears to turn in as bounty. He follows Dresdin out. [18:52:59] [Two days later, [Two days later, the gates of Fallcrest rise above you as you return, victorious, and a considerable measure richer than when you entered. It's a very, very good morning.] [18:56:15] * Danith breathes the fresh air deeply. "Nice to be out of that musty dungeon." [18:56:29] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:02:37] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #KHS [19:03:10] Shall we go claim our bounty? [19:04:00] * Steddha is up about, and quickly dressed for the day. After all, breakfast doesn't make itself! [19:04:10] * ... not that Steddha's making breakfast, only eating it. [19:04:21] Sure [19:04:32] You mean breakfast doesn't eat itself... [19:10:17] Let's go! [19:11:17] * Steddha is already on the move, pressing onward. She looks quite proud of herself. Must be the hammer. [19:12:25] * Danith heads towards the armorer's shop to report their success. [19:13:01] * Citizens look on as you come through town, and you soon arrive at Goldcap's shop. The dwarf looks up at you. [19:13:17] * Goldcap looks up. "Ah! Good! You're back then. "Do you have that dragonskin?" [19:13:34] Yessir. Hand the man his goods. [19:13:59] * He nods. "Good, good. Let's head to the back room, and conduct our business there. So tell me, hwo did it go? DId you pound them nice and good?" [19:14:13] * He looks to Steddh and Ahzgrit. "Leave no gory detail out." [19:14:39] * Quite the opposite for Steddha, actually ... [19:15:25] * Danith laughs softly. He waves his hand behind him at the floating dragon's head. "Answer your questions? If not, I have kobold ears here too." [19:15:43] * Steddha waddles on over to follow Goldcap. "Pretty thorough, heavy whalloping. Lots of the buggers, and another damned dragon. Cold one. I don't know how many time I've been knocked over." [19:16:24] Could've been more blood, but satisfying all the same. [19:16:39] * Goldcap raises his eyebrow. "Oh? A dragon? Glad to hear yhou managed to escape its clutches then. They're bad news." [19:17:13] * Steddha mutters, "No fucking kidding." [19:17:43] * "It didn't follow you, did it?" [19:18:07] * Steddha snickers. "Behehehe. Followed. It's dealt with. Where's the head?" [19:18:14] * Danith motions towards the mage hand for the dragon head. "It's dead." [19:18:45] * "What? Dead? You're clearly made of tougher stuff than I thought. Great work!" [19:18:48] * The mage hand moves forward at its master's command, still holding the dragon head. [19:19:09] * Ahzgrit smirks. "Underestimated us, eh?" [19:19:17] * Goldcap laughs, then reaches for a pouch. "Here's the gold you were promised." [19:20:10] * "TWo hundred and forty gold pieces." [19:21:05] * Steddha smirks. "Nice. No complaints here." [19:24:43] So think we can get a discount? [19:24:57] Good doing business with you, Master Goldcap. [19:25:36] After all, we took care of the problem and better gear means we can do it better in the future. [19:25:39] * "Normally, no, but that's quite a tale you brought me. I'm open to it." [19:27:54] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:30:02] I believe that we still have another bounty to claim from the Lord of Fallcrest. [19:30:28] * Goldcap nods. "Aye, you do." [19:30:28] Looks like. Oh, yeah. Goldcap. [19:30:57] * Steddha takes her old hammer and hands it over. "In case someone needs a solid starting weapon." [19:32:15] * He glances at it. "Oh? Hmm... it's a good hammer. You sure?" [19:32:47] Aaaah. It's been good for me, but I'm doing a bit better now. [19:36:06] * "Alright, then. Normally, the standard rate for a warhammer is 3 gold pieces, but you've done a good service to the town. I'll buy it back at cost. And maybe hand it off to someone with the story." [19:36:44] You're a good man, Goldcap! [19:37:24] Well, Master Goldcap, if there is nothing else, I believe our business is concluded. [19:37:51] * He nods. [19:38:13] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #KHS [19:38:55] * Steddha bows a little, then turns to go. "Now, for the kobolds." [19:42:52] * Danith heads out to the Lord's manor. [19:44:06] [Danith sees a nice manor, with a handful of guards about. They look up at the appaoaching group and wave.] [19:44:53] * Danith waves back. "Greetings. We are here to claim the bounty on the kobolds and their leaders." [19:45:32] * He looks. "Oh, good. The Lord Warden's been looking forward to someone finally going after that. Come this way." He starts heading in. [19:45:46] * Amroth follows. [19:46:54] * Danith points to the mage hand, which floats after him as he heads inside. [19:47:01] * Steddha waves back, and is quick to follow along. She's a bit of a spring in her squat step. [19:49:40] * You arrive before the Lord Warden, who looks up. "Ah, hello." [19:49:57] * The guard looks to him. "Sir, these people are here about that kobold bounty." [19:51:11] All dead, sir. All dead. [19:52:36] * Amroth points to the objects Danith is still levitating. [19:52:57] Yes, Lord Warden. We have eliminated their leaders, including the white dragon, Szartharrax. Here is his head. [19:53:27] * He raises an eyebrow. "Really? That's quite a feat. Well, you've certainly earned it." [19:56:37] * Steddha grins all the more. "Definitely, sir. Hope we did you proud." [19:57:21] * He does some counting, and a short time later, he hands over a sack. "Three hundred and fourty gold pieces. Hopefully this town will see better days soon." [19:58:06] * Danith smiles. "Thank you sir. If there is anything else we can do, please waste no time in mentioning it." [19:59:33] Pleasure doing business! Was a good workout, too, although I think I need a good bath and some time off after that! [20:02:45] * Danith bows. "If that is all Lord Warden, then we shall take our leave." [20:02:59] * He nods. "Again, you've done an invaluable service for this town." [20:04:12] * Steddha bows once more, trying to suppress the urge to giggle again. So much monies to be had, and all it took was a few moments of blacking out! [20:04:22] * Danith smiles once more and then turns to head out. [20:05:03] * Amroth quietly bows and turns to leave. [20:05:12] * Steddha follows behind Danith. "So. Who here thinks we should have ourselves a little party, ah?" [20:05:47] So long as you're picking up the tab... [20:07:35] Pffft, no! Pay your way! [20:11:34] Love to party, but I'd like to find an alchemist shop and see if I can find a few recipes. [20:14:29] * "Hm.... I do believe that Nimozaran the Green recently look an interst in the subject... he may be able to teach you something. He lives in the Septarch's tower on the outskirts of town." [20:14:30] Bah! You all need to open up some! [20:17:36] I'm going to go shop around for some new recipes, I'll catch up with you later, unless you want to tag along. We can meet up at the armorer's shop. [20:18:25] * Steddha rolls her eyes. "I'm fine for now... you all do what your have to. I'll scrape up a nice meal and some morning ale!" [20:19:54] * Danith nods. "I'll see you later then." [20:19:57] I'm going to go and rest. [20:21:16] * Steddha salutes, and marches over to the nearest pub that she's certain has proper bangers and mash. And real dwarven ale, not that pathetic brown water humans call 'beer'. [20:21:32] * Danith heads to Septarch. [20:22:15] * The Septarch's tower stands high, a seven-sided pale green spire with a door at the base [20:22:18] * Amroth wonders to himself how much liquor that little dwarf can hold as he goes back to his room to meditate on events of the day. [20:23:06] * Ahzgrit joins Steddha, not to be outdone at boozing. [20:23:38] * Danith knocks on the door. "Hello?" [20:24:06] * A halfling opens the doo and looks up. "Ah, hello?" [20:24:35] Greetings. Is Nimozaran the Green in? [20:24:49] * He nods. "Ah, yes. He's in, pelase folow me." [20:25:06] * Danith waves at the mage hand beckoning it to follow. [20:25:18] * He steps up [20:25:48] * Danith follows the halfling inside. [20:26:04] * At the top of the stairs, an elderly wizard sits, reading over a book. "Ah, hello. What brings you here? Are you here to join the Fallcrest Mage's Guild?" [20:27:45] Actually no Master Nimozaran. I am Danitharas d' Jennot. I bring news of the kobolds. [20:28:27] * "Ah. I hope this is good news." [20:29:45] My friends and I have routed the kobolds and their leader, the white dragon, Szartharrax. [20:29:55] * Danith motions for the mage hand to move forward. [20:30:57] * "A dragon? Well... that certainly explains things to my satisfaction. IN retrospect, it all makes sense now. The presence of a dragon would have given great prestige to one tribe and started drawing recruits. It sdeath is great news." [20:32:52] * He thinks for a moment. "I'd love to rward you, but the mage's guild hasn't been bringing in the income it used to. However, our tower does have a teleportation circle. I can offer you its use." [20:34:05] Thank you. May I leave the dragon's head with you? Perhaps the mage's guild can do some research with it. [20:34:52] * "Hmm... I'm not sure what it might reveal, but it couldn't hurt. Thanks. That problem had been bothering me for a while." [20:34:59] * "Is ther eanything else I can do for you?" [20:36:04] Yes, actually. Do you happen to have any alchemical formulaes on hand? [20:36:45] * "Oh, yes. It's become a recent diversion of mine. What have you been interested in?" [20:37:14] * Nimozaran pulls out some papers and looks them over, organizing them roughly." [20:38:07] Do you happen to have Alchemist's Frost. [20:39:02] * "Right here. I could have a copy made for you, for a charge for time and materials." [20:39:53] Of course. Will this do? *Pulls out 70 gp.* [20:40:12] * "That'll do." [20:41:08] Thank you very much, Master Nimozaran. [20:41:33] * The formula is copied shortly, and Danith is done [20:42:17] Thank you again. Until next time, sir. [20:42:45] * With that, Danith leaves the Septarch and heads back to the armory shop. [20:43:53] * Goldcap is there. "Oh, hello again." [20:46:01] * He looks over to Danith. "I found this letter inside the dragon's skin." [20:46:09] * He hands it over. "It's no concern of mine, so you can have it." [20:46:20] Thank you. [20:46:38] * Danith opens the letter to see its contents. [20:47:58] * It reads: [20:48:00] "Szartharrax the White:" [20:48:25] "Greetings. I understand that you have recently managed to unite many of the bickering kobold bandit tribtes in the Nentir Valley. I would like to congratulate you. I am Irontooth. I would like to extend my hand to offer an alliance. Your kobolds have begun to accomplish much, but Fallcrest continues to be an obstacle to you, and Winterhaven continues to be a problem for me. Let us work together and topple both, then after, turn our sights on the whole Nentir Vale." [20:48:43] "sights on the whole Nentir Vale." [20:48:48] "- Irontooth" [20:49:47] * Danith feels a chill running down his back as he finishes reading the letter. The threat has not ended yet. [20:53:54] * Danith looks up and sees Amroth meditating. [20:54:18] * Amroth 's been there a while, it seems. [20:54:33] Amroth, we need to get everyone together. [20:54:46] We have another problem on our hands. [20:55:18] Yes, I heard. [20:55:32] It's never this easy... [20:56:34] I read the letter before you came back. [20:56:57] Alright, lets get more bounty! [20:57:01] Let's go pick up the others. [20:57:07] I don't like giving bad news, so it's best you read it yourself. [20:58:34] * Steddha is, in the midst of all of this, merrily stuffing her dwarf-sized gullet with proper victuals at the best pub she could find. After all, all that hard work generates an appetite... a few days after the face, it seems. [20:59:03] * Danith heads out to find Steddha and Ahzgrit. [21:00:37] They shouldn't be too far. [21:00:51] Indeed. Where's the nearest pub? [21:04:02] * Goldcap pipes up> "The Silver Unicorn Inn is a good spot." [21:05:02] Excellent, thank you Master Goldcap. Let's go. [21:05:21] * Amroth and Danith find said inn after only a few minutes of wandering. [21:05:53] * And in there, the rest of our heroes are piss drunk and half asleep. [21:06:19] Well, guess they couldn't hold their liquor. [21:06:29] * Steddha is only piss drunk. She's too happy to sleep, retelling the (slurred) tale of how she splattered the dragon with her mighty HAMMER! [21:06:54] * Amroth notices no one is listening to that tale. [21:07:02] ... and then KABEWM! Th' thing dropped like a sack a' wet chickens. [21:07:37] * Steddha waves her mug about, grinning. "Best damn fight I've had since ah punched out my sister for takin' my boyfriend!" [21:08:18] * Amroth , hating to spoil the obvious good mood, turns to Danith ... "Umm..why don't you tell them?" [21:08:32] I'm going to get a drink. [21:08:51] * Danith rolls his eyes. [21:10:51] Good, then you can let our friends know that we're heading to Winterhaven soon. [21:11:25] ...coward... [21:11:53] * Amroth flags the bartender, gets his ale, then sits next to Steddha and Ahzgrit. [21:12:17] Hate to ruin your story, but it's not over. [21:12:45] ... eh? Is so! I'm here gettin' pissed! [21:12:55] * Steddha emphasizes by having a drink. [21:13:00] * Danith heads towards the counter to get a room in the inn to create some alchemist's frost potions. [21:13:41] Well, we got this Ironfoot now to deal with ... and you didn't mention how many times you fainted from rolling rocks and dragons. [21:14:22] I did too! Twice! [21:14:44] * Steddha takes a sip... and then pauses. "... Ironwha?" [21:16:29] * Amroth gives her the letter. [21:16:55] Read the bad news yourself. [21:17:55] ... [21:18:17] Too drunk? [21:18:30] * Steddha takes it, turns it around a few times... and snorts. "Mn. So long as it pays well. BARTENDER! One more Thunder Mountain stout and I'm hittin' the hay!" [21:18:35] Long story short. The dragon's got a potential ally. [21:18:45] So yes. [21:18:50] Never too drunk fer pain or profit, boyo. [21:21:28] [SEssion End] [21:21:46] * With Danith upstairs making bombs, Dresdin walking around, Amrothm, Ahzgrit, and Steddha drink the night away. [21:21:55] Goldcap: 240 GP, and gain 600 EXP for the party. Or 100 exp and 40 gp each [21:21:55] Splitting up the gold so far would be 106 from all the looted gold. [21:21:55] Lord Warden: 340 GP and 900 EXP for the party, or 150 exp each. The gold comes out to 56.666666666666 each. This kinda sucks. [21:21:55] Steddha sells off her regular warhammer for 15 gp at Goldcap's shop [21:21:55] Nimozaran: 600 XP for the group, or 100 XP each.

[18:13:07] [Szartharrax lies dead and miraculously headless [18:15:30] ] [18:15:34] * Ahzgrit mutters darkly to himself. [18:16:31] Dragons. Can't stand the bloody things. Can't just die like a good lizard. [18:18:39] * A quick examination of the area reveals a treasure chest behind one of the pillars, now that things have calmed down [18:19:06] Hey a chest! Lets dig in? [18:19:10] It's dead now. The people of Fallcrest can relax and not worry about kobolds or dragons for the near future. [18:19:35] And we don't have to worry about starving for a while.

It would be rather ironic that traps finish us off instead of the dragon. [18:22:00] * Steddha grunts again. "If there's a hammer in there, I want it."

[18:29:04] * Dresdin pops the chest open... [18:29:32] * Steddha sees a glorious beautiful glint of a flat surface. Six of them. With a nice, sturdy handle. [18:29:38] * It's a hammer.

[18:35:07] * A careful and dwarfy count reveals that the chest contains 236 GP [18:41:13] * Steddha hefts the new hammer with a smile, and then looks around. "Best damn job I've had in a while!" [18:41:51] Well, we still have the bounty to claim. [18:42:55] I wonder how much the head of a white dragon is worth. [18:46:31] All right, so are we set to go back.

[18:51:25] * Dresdin heads back to town [18:51:45] * Danith levitates the dragon's head with mage hand and carries a handful of kobold ears to turn in as bounty. He follows Dresdin out.

It's a very, very good morning.] [18:56:15] * Danith breathes the fresh air deeply. "Nice to be out of that musty dungeon." [18:56:29] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:02:37] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #KHS [19:03:10] Shall we go claim our bounty? [19:04:00] * Steddha is up about, and quickly dressed for the day. After all, breakfast doesn't make itself! [19:04:10] * ... not that Steddha's making breakfast, only eating it. [19:04:21] Sure [19:04:32] You mean breakfast doesn't eat itself... [19:10:17] Let's go! [19:11:17] * Steddha is already on the move, pressing onward. She looks quite proud of herself. Must be the hammer. [19:12:25] * Danith heads towards the armorer's shop to report their success. [19:13:01] * Citizens look on as you come through town, and you soon arrive at Goldcap's shop. The dwarf looks up at you. [19:13:17] * Goldcap looks up. "Ah! Good! You're back then. "Do you have that dragonskin?" [19:13:34] Yessir. Hand the man his goods. [19:13:59] * He nods. "Good, good. Let's head to the back room, and conduct our business there. So tell me, hwo did it go? DId you pound them nice and good?" [19:14:13] * He looks to Steddh and Ahzgrit. "Leave no gory detail out." [19:14:39] * Quite the opposite for Steddha, actually ... [19:15:25] * Danith laughs softly. He waves his hand behind him at the floating dragon's head. "Answer your questions? If not, I have kobold ears here too." [19:15:43] * Steddha waddles on over to follow Goldcap. "Pretty thorough, heavy whalloping. Lots of the buggers, and another damned dragon. Cold one. I don't know how many time I've been knocked over." [19:16:24] Could've been more blood, but satisfying all the same. [19:16:39] * Goldcap raises his eyebrow. "Oh? A dragon? Glad to hear yhou managed to escape its clutches then. They're bad news." [19:17:13] * Steddha mutters, "No fucking kidding." [19:17:43] * "It didn't follow you, did it?" [19:18:07] * Steddha snickers. "Behehehe. Followed. It's dealt with. Where's the head?" [19:18:14] * Danith motions towards the mage hand for the dragon head. "It's dead." [19:18:45] * "What? Dead? You're clearly made of tougher stuff than I thought. Great work!" [19:18:48] * The mage hand moves forward at its master's command, still holding the dragon head. [19:19:09] * Ahzgrit smirks. "Underestimated us, eh?" [19:19:17] * Goldcap laughs, then reaches for a pouch. "Here's the gold you were promised." [19:20:10] * "TWo hundred and forty gold pieces." [19:21:05] * Steddha smirks. "Nice. No complaints here." [19:24:43] So think we can get a discount? [19:24:57] Good doing business with you, Master Goldcap. [19:25:36] After all, we took care of the problem and better gear means we can do it better in the future. [19:25:39] * "Normally, no, but that's quite a tale you brought me. I'm open to it." [19:27:54] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:30:02] I believe that we still have another bounty to claim from the Lord of Fallcrest. [19:30:28] * Goldcap nods. "Aye, you do." [19:30:28] Looks like. Oh, yeah. Goldcap. [19:30:57] * Steddha takes her old hammer and hands it over. "In case someone needs a solid starting weapon." [19:32:15] * He glances at it. "Oh? Hmm... it's a good hammer. You sure?" [19:32:47] Aaaah. It's been good for me, but I'm doing a bit better now. [19:36:06] * "Alright, then. Normally, the standard rate for a warhammer is 3 gold pieces, but you've done a good service to the town. I'll buy it back at cost. And maybe hand it off to someone with the story." [19:36:44] You're a good man, Goldcap! [19:37:24] Well, Master Goldcap, if there is nothing else, I believe our business is concluded. [19:37:51] * He nods. [19:38:13] * Amroth (Athaven@c-67-174-239-51.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #KHS [19:38:55] * Steddha bows a little, then turns to go. "Now, for the kobolds." [19:42:52] * Danith heads out to the Lord's manor. [19:44:06] [Danith sees a nice manor, with a handful of guards about. They look up at the appaoaching group and wave.] [19:44:53] * Danith waves back. "Greetings. We are here to claim the bounty on the kobolds and their leaders." [19:45:32] * He looks. "Oh, good. The Lord Warden's been looking forward to someone finally going after that. Come this way." He starts heading in. [19:45:46] * Amroth follows. [19:46:54] * Danith points to the mage hand, which floats after him as he heads inside. [19:47:01] * Steddha waves back, and is quick to follow along. She's a bit of a spring in her squat step. [19:49:40] * You arrive before the Lord Warden, who looks up. "Ah, hello." [19:49:57] * The guard looks to him. "Sir, these people are here about that kobold bounty." [19:51:11] All dead, sir. All dead. [19:52:36] * Amroth points to the objects Danith is still levitating. [19:52:57] Yes, Lord Warden. We have eliminated their leaders, including the white dragon, Szartharrax. Here is his head. [19:53:27] * He raises an eyebrow. "Really? That's quite a feat. Well, you've certainly earned it." [19:56:37] * Steddha grins all the more. "Definitely, sir. Hope we did you proud." [19:57:21] * He does some counting, and a short time later, he hands over a sack. "Three hundred and fourty gold pieces. Hopefully this town will see better days soon." [19:58:06] * Danith smiles. "Thank you sir. If there is anything else we can do, please waste no time in mentioning it." [19:59:33] Pleasure doing business! Was a good workout, too, although I think I need a good bath and some time off after that! [20:02:45] * Danith bows. "If that is all Lord Warden, then we shall take our leave." [20:02:59] * He nods. "Again, you've done an invaluable service for this town." [20:04:12] * Steddha bows once more, trying to suppress the urge to giggle again. So much monies to be had, and all it took was a few moments of blacking out! [20:04:22] * Danith smiles once more and then turns to head out. [20:05:03] * Amroth quietly bows and turns to leave. [20:05:12] * Steddha follows behind Danith. "So. Who here thinks we should have ourselves a little party, ah?" [20:05:47] So long as you're picking up the tab... [20:07:35] Pffft, no! Pay your way! [20:11:34] Love to party, but I'd like to find an alchemist shop and see if I can find a few recipes. [20:14:29] * "Hm.... I do believe that Nimozaran the Green recently look an interst in the subject... he may be able to teach you something. He lives in the Septarch's tower on the outskirts of town." [20:14:30] Bah! You all need to open up some! [20:17:36] I'm going to go shop around for some new recipes, I'll catch up with you later, unless you want to tag along. We can meet up at the armorer's shop. [20:18:25] * Steddha rolls her eyes. "I'm fine for now... you all do what your have to. I'll scrape up a nice meal and some morning ale!" [20:19:54] * Danith nods. "I'll see you later then." [20:19:57] I'm going to go and rest. [20:21:16] * Steddha salutes, and marches over to the nearest pub that she's certain has proper bangers and mash. And real dwarven ale, not that pathetic brown water humans call 'beer'. [20:21:32] * Danith heads to Septarch. [20:22:15] * The Septarch's tower stands high, a seven-sided pale green spire with a door at the base [20:22:18] * Amroth wonders to himself how much liquor that little dwarf can hold as he goes back to his room to meditate on events of the day. [20:23:06] * Ahzgrit joins Steddha, not to be outdone at boozing. [20:23:38] * Danith knocks on the door. "Hello?" [20:24:06] * A halfling opens the doo and looks up. "Ah, hello?" [20:24:35] Greetings. Is Nimozaran the Green in? [20:24:49] * He nods. "Ah, yes. He's in, pelase folow me." [20:25:06] * Danith waves at the mage hand beckoning it to follow. [20:25:18] * He steps up [20:25:48] * Danith follows the halfling inside. [20:26:04] * At the top of the stairs, an elderly wizard sits, reading over a book. "Ah, hello. What brings you here? Are you here to join the Fallcrest Mage's Guild?" [20:27:45] Actually no Master Nimozaran. I am Danitharas d' Jennot. I bring news of the kobolds. [20:28:27] * "Ah. I hope this is good news." [20:29:45] My friends and I have routed the kobolds and their leader, the white dragon, Szartharrax. [20:29:55] * Danith motions for the mage hand to move forward. [20:30:57] * "A dragon? Well... that certainly explains things to my satisfaction. IN retrospect, it all makes sense now. The presence of a dragon would have given great prestige to one tribe and started drawing recruits. It sdeath is great news." [20:32:52] * He thinks for a moment. "I'd love to rward you, but the mage's guild hasn't been bringing in the income it used to. However, our tower does have a teleportation circle. I can offer you its use." [20:34:05] Thank you. May I leave the dragon's head with you? Perhaps the mage's guild can do some research with it. [20:34:52] * "Hmm... I'm not sure what it might reveal, but it couldn't hurt. Thanks. That problem had been bothering me for a while." [20:34:59] * "Is ther eanything else I can do for you?" [20:36:04] Yes, actually. Do you happen to have any alchemical formulaes on hand? [20:36:45] * "Oh, yes. It's become a recent diversion of mine. What have you been interested in?" [20:37:14] * Nimozaran pulls out some papers and looks them over, organizing them roughly." [20:38:07] Do you happen to have Alchemist's Frost. [20:39:02] * "Right here. I could have a copy made for you, for a charge for time and materials." [20:39:53] Of course. Will this do? *Pulls out 70 gp.* [20:40:12] * "That'll do." [20:41:08] Thank you very much, Master Nimozaran. [20:41:33] * The formula is copied shortly, and Danith is done [20:42:17] Thank you again. Until next time, sir. [20:42:45] * With that, Danith leaves the Septarch and heads back to the armory shop. [20:43:53] * Goldcap is there. "Oh, hello again." [20:46:01] * He looks over to Danith. "I found this letter inside the dragon's skin." [20:46:09] * He hands it over. "It's no concern of mine, so you can have it." [20:46:20] Thank you. [20:46:38] * Danith opens the letter to see its contents. [20:47:58] * It reads: [20:48:00] "Szartharrax the White:" [20:48:25] "Greetings. I understand that you have recently managed to unite many of the bickering kobold bandit tribtes in the Nentir Valley. I would like to congratulate you. I am Irontooth. I would like to extend my hand to offer an alliance. Your kobolds have begun to accomplish much, but Fallcrest continues to be an obstacle to you, and Winterhaven continues to be a problem for me. Let us work together and topple both, then after, turn our sights on the whole Nentir Vale." [20:48:43] "sights on the whole Nentir Vale." [20:48:48] "- Irontooth" [20:49:47] * Danith feels a chill running down his back as he finishes reading the letter. The threat has not ended yet. [20:53:54] * Danith looks up and sees Amroth meditating. [20:54:18] * Amroth 's been there a while, it seems. [20:54:33] Amroth, we need to get everyone together. [20:54:46] We have another problem on our hands. [20:55:18] Yes, I heard. [20:55:32] It's never this easy... [20:56:34] I read the letter before you came back. [20:56:57] Alright, lets get more bounty! [20:57:01] Let's go pick up the others. [20:57:07] I don't like giving bad news, so it's best you read it yourself. [20:58:34] * Steddha is, in the midst of all of this, merrily stuffing her dwarf-sized gullet with proper victuals at the best pub she could find. After all, all that hard work generates an appetite... a few days after the face, it seems. [20:59:03] * Danith heads out to find Steddha and Ahzgrit. [21:00:37] They shouldn't be too far. [21:00:51] Indeed. Where's the nearest pub? [21:04:02] * Goldcap pipes up> "The Silver Unicorn Inn is a good spot." [21:05:02] Excellent, thank you Master Goldcap. Let's go. [21:05:21] * Amroth and Danith find said inn after only a few minutes of wandering. [21:05:53] * And in there, the rest of our heroes are piss drunk and half asleep. [21:06:19] Well, guess they couldn't hold their liquor. [21:06:29] * Steddha is only piss drunk. She's too happy to sleep, retelling the (slurred) tale of how she splattered the dragon with her mighty HAMMER! [21:06:54] * Amroth notices no one is listening to that tale. [21:07:02] ... and then KABEWM! Th' thing dropped like a sack a' wet chickens. [21:07:37] * Steddha waves her mug about, grinning. "Best damn fight I've had since ah punched out my sister for takin' my boyfriend!" [21:08:18] * Amroth , hating to spoil the obvious good mood, turns to Danith ... "Umm..why don't you tell them?" [21:08:32] I'm going to get a drink. [21:08:51] * Danith rolls his eyes. [21:10:51] Good, then you can let our friends know that we're heading to Winterhaven soon. [21:11:25] ...coward... [21:11:53] * Amroth flags the bartender, gets his ale, then sits next to Steddha and Ahzgrit. [21:12:17] Hate to ruin your story, but it's not over. [21:12:45] ... eh? Is so! I'm here gettin' pissed! [21:12:55] * Steddha emphasizes by having a drink. [21:13:00] * Danith heads towards the counter to get a room in the inn to create some alchemist's frost potions. [21:13:41] Well, we got this Ironfoot now to deal with ... and you didn't mention how many times you fainted from rolling rocks and dragons. [21:14:22] I did too! Twice! [21:14:44] * Steddha takes a sip... and then pauses. "... Ironwha?" [21:16:29] * Amroth gives her the letter. [21:16:55] Read the bad news yourself. [21:17:55] ... [21:18:17] Too drunk? [21:18:30] * Steddha takes it, turns it around a few times... and snorts. "Mn. So long as it pays well. BARTENDER! One more Thunder Mountain stout and I'm hittin' the hay!" [21:18:35] Long story short. The dragon's got a potential ally. [21:18:45] So yes. [21:18:50] Never too drunk fer pain or profit, boyo. [21:21:28] [SEssion End] [21:21:46] * With Danith upstairs making bombs, Dresdin walking around, Amrothm, Ahzgrit, and Steddha drink the night away. [21:21:55] Goldcap: 240 GP, and gain 600 EXP for the party. Or 100 exp and 40 gp each [21:21:55] Splitting up the gold so far would be 106 from all the looted gold. [21:21:55] Lord Warden: 340 GP and 900 EXP for the party, or 150 exp each. The gold comes out to 56.666666666666 each. This kinda sucks. [21:21:55] Steddha sells off her regular warhammer for 15 gp at Goldcap's shop [21:21:55] Nimozaran: 600 XP for the group, or 100 XP each. Access to the Fallcrest Septarch's Tower teleport circle [21:24:04] 240 (Goldcap) + 340 (Warden)+ 236 (Dragon's hoard) /6 = 136 gp. Everyone should be at 984 XP, but level up to 2 anyway.
