So what kind of sword did you find?

Ping Ragone: thanks for the herbs and torches. :)

I searched the scroll room just for kicks and found nothing.

We will be going to the spider cave today. Should be fun. :)

It's a sword of enbowelment which is +2 and has extra chance to critical. I definitely feel like I can do some damage with this thing!

Found nothing in my search of the butterfly room so will be going right through the door too short for a Taurean today. May my goddess bless me with luck and skill...

May my goddess bless you Thomkal!

Sweet! Definitely worth the acid bath then.

Yeah, that's what I figured. I took 6 hit points damage to get it and a scroll for JAG but I figure after three hits, I'm ahead, so it's all good!

Works for me. Glad to hear the sword turned out well.

We may have an interesting call to make later today. Can I ask how many items you have that need identification other than the two scrolls?

I have just the scrolls, I feel comfortable with the sword. Why, what's up?

And if you need to use the ID on something else, go ahead. I have been holding these for you anyway so IDing them probably isn't a necessity since I wouldn't sell them.

I'm wondering if we might want to insult a leprechaun when you get to the room. If you do it, I don't know if it will make an extra one peel off because I've been in the room or if it'll just be one because you're just entering. Whether it's one or two, we should be able to handle them fairly easily so we'll at least get some exp and maybe some treasure while we're sitting here waiting to move again. Since you only have two things to ID, I can check them out and still have one missile left for the fight, and if we do that this afternoon, my spells will reset for our Monday movement.

Sound like a plan?

Hey JAG, couple of questions:

What rank are you? If I'm reading right and you are level 2 you can only cast 2 spells a day, meaning you may only be able to do 1 identification in order to have a magic missile left over.

Should we have you insult them? I'm pretty sure that if I do it we'll end up with 3 or 4 which is a lot. If you do it, I would assume we would end up with just 1 or 2.

9 Lives, where are you guys wanting to move today? I still think the forge room is the best plan because we will be one room away from something new and every other way we can travel, it will take at least two days to go somewhere new.

Agreed. We need to head new places and get some XP ASAP

Any luck with this?

I'm thinking the leprechaun counter resets after you leave the room since I only faced one. Since you didnt kill the two, I wouldn't think we'd fight more than two with you insulting. My only concern if I insult them is if both of them fling a missile at me to open combat, I could potentially take lethal damage.

We could also just skip the exercise, since we admittedly don't know what the mechanics are here, just thought we might try to get something out of the day so we don't fall behind others.

I found some bracers and some darts. Willing to trade for scrolls

Order sent. Can't have the likes of Dubb getting too far ahead of us.

Are you Level 3 at this point? I don't need you to give it away in thread if you would rather not - just wasn't on the PM for movement yesterday so I don't know if it bumped you up or not.

Hey JAG, I didn't even think about the fact that you would be the target if you insulted them. Yeah, I can do that. Might be nice to grab some XP before delving deeper.

Which room did you find these in? One of the rooms we've been in together or something earlier?

Yeah i am a low level 3 now. You dont have any scrolls do you?

The room we are in now

I found them an hour ago

Can I trade with a player if I am physically in the same room with them?

Not in game mind you, I mean they are right next to me IRL.

I just rated this thread 5 stars, but if I lose, it's going down to 1 star

Yep, forge room it up. You can gain XP by forging something in there if you're successful I guess. The belt I have is a cursed belt of humanity, and whoever wears it turns human. So I can either sell that or one of us cats can turn human at some point I guess.. Not that I see any reason to do that.

About time.

Mind your tongue, champion of the night!

,,,,,,,

I think they have to make a black market post.

Ok, well I am equipping the bracers for now, but I am always open to trading anything for spells

No spells to offer here - would be happy to trade them with you if there was a chance to get value back.

Well lets see what we can find here in level 2 of the dungeon.

In. A party, do I need to submit a move action as well.. or designated leader moves the group?

I think I submit the party action, but I am not 100% sure.

Being an assassin I really hope I find one of these.



All I've found so far is a club fashioned from a table leg though.

We have in our past found a nice ring of Protection and a recipe scroll for a very interesting shield. Unfortunately we our culture in the Kensai world, declares use of shields to be taboo.

I got yer spellz. Come find me!

you do know that you can send in movement actions when you send in morning actions and that you can send them all in way in advance right?

Danny, that's some mioghty fine post-whorin you got there. Mi-T-Fine!

ok now that WOULD suck. I'm surprised Autumn hasn't posted unless he's just really stunned and pissed right now. He was indeed on last night so he knows he died. This theory does make sense. I wonder if a second theory might be posssssstulated that there issss a way to bring them back.

Yea, i would highly suggest keeping our own maps from this point on, until we know otherwise

Granted I still don't know where I am. :)

Only if you punch him in the face. Then you may.

I know where I am, I just have no idea about anyone else.

Eeeek. A new thought...PMing fellow ghouls...

I'll add everyone others maps to mine as soon as I have some frame of reference to do so.

Hmm, I thought it was us evil types that were supposed to come up with these kind of theories to keep people distrustful of one another?

Actually how would you tell that they are turned to undead anyway. Undead are evil and smelly. Autumn and Whit are...

*sigh* I just hope mauboy logged in but I am completely doubtful of this.

Alright, to the forge it is. Abe is bhlloy is our party or do we need to do something else since he is not on our party list on the character page.

I will appoint myself leader of our party, at least until such time as I lead us back into a room previously visited.

APPOINT SELF LEADER OF PEANUTBUTTERJELLYTIME

When the dead members of the party hunt down the remaining live members, I would say that the party being "defunct" is a bit of an understatement.

Yeah if you can confirm this that would be great otherwise will need to put my own order in

Are we sure they're dead, or are they faking it to hint us down in secret...

So if one party member takes an action in a room that triggers combat and the other does not, do all party members take part in the combat? Can Abe or an existing party that's gone through this scenario please answer this?

So is that just a coincidence or was Autumn turning on his teammate as a game mechanic?

KWhit was evil, right? Maybe just the evil players become ghouls?

Of course, Autumn was evil, too, right? So following that theory, we do have two ghouls to worry about.

Abe- Just in case you missed it above: If JAG and I team up and one of us triggers combat in the room will the other automatically jump in?

Let's get started early

Someone is fighting this:

Can't wait to link up with JAG so we can start fighting new monsters too!

LET'S DO THIS!

Please let it be me fighting it, assuming I'm able to kill it of course.

Sn f btch!

Ghoulishly laughs.......

Stpd swrd, PB trgts lprchn wth mdnss

Sorry! We can't understand you!

Grrrrr

A bard inflicted would be horrendous, but another person is a delight! Let the amusement commence!

I think we need to kill a neutral or good player to test this theory ...

It had to be you.

PB'll mk ths wrk.

Swrd stll rcks!

We can understand your calls for "Brains" better than the wishes-he-was-pink-right-about-now dude with a sword glued to his hand.

Someone in the hall asked why I was laughing my ass off. Abe outdoes himself again.

Well really that sword was destined for PB wasn't it? :)

Dngn Mstr h8s PB

I told him official work posts could use vowels.

JAG, didn't you identify the sword for PB? If so, and you held back some critical information, bravo.

Clearly you are a softie when it comes to PB and his afflictions.

well I guess Dubb found the outside.

I'm waiting to look at the currently active users and see "ZombieKWhit" or something like that as one of the names.

Can we post now Abe?

Others are fighting this:

No, he investigated it himself. Let this be a lesson to you folks, always get a licensed mage to do your identifications.

Hahahah sorry PB. Even though that is an awesome curse.

ts 0k m8. Hmmm, nmbrs r PBs frnd

JAG, just so we're clear - if you had identified it, and you knew it was cursed, would you still have given it to PB? It would have been a total buzzkill for him not to have gotten cursed gear when it was so obviously meant for him.

Even if you think that you would have told him, just lie in the thread and let the rest of us think that you valued the story and enjoyment of 19 other players plus the moderator more than some simple act of kindness to a member of your party. I'm honestly trying to help you here :)

PB t%st!ng n%w m%th0ds. ! th!nk th!s m@y w0rk 0k.

Trying to wait around long enough to hear about movement, but running out of time.

I think either the sword is going to get angry at the workarounds or another curse is going to find you if you keep this up.

I actually warned him in thread not to equip the sword yet when he was thinking of doing so without ID, so I guess I already answered that in the negative. But I'm glad things worked out as they did. He gets a great weapon and we all get entertainment out of it. It's pretty amazing it happened to him of all people.
