Jinara will cast Invisibility on himself and fly 200 ft higher to survey the surrounding areas for any other signs of activity. Perception 17 After taking a look around he would return to ground and begin investigating the massacre of orcs, goblins and ogres. Investigation 5
"That army was clutch. That 2nd wave could have been deadly." Jinara says in agreement with Aryn. "Apologies for the wildfire. Forgot that wall was mine."
Mucor would have repeatedly cast mold earth in the hope of churning the soil to extinguish the flames. The minotaur would have spent some time making that any casualties on their side were carefully picked up and placed over his shoulder (I don't think there were but if there were he would collect them) before looting the bodies of the attacking force. After collecting some of the goblin corpses for Button, he would bury the bodies with his mold earth] before waving his staff over the soil and creating fewsh patches of mushrooms with a bit of druidcraft. "Is everyone alright?" The minotaur would snort as ash and spores fall from his hair. "You all faught very well... " He would say to his companions before turning towards the soldiers. "You all performed very well, I see your training has been paying off! Your assistance is greatly appreciated" He would say with a nod of his large horned head.
"I just sent a message to Herbert asking for Valeera, apparently he decided to give us these fine soldiers as a bonus." Gaelin will say to Aryn before turning to the infantry. "Thank you for your help and bravery. I hope you are prepared for more of the same." then turning to the group, "Shall we make our way back home?"
(Welcome back Zinmaer. Definitely go back and read. It's awesome.)
(Thanks Xtra! I didn't even know that's how it works. Pretty cool.)
(Yet... :) I've been trying to kill all of you this whole time. You're a resilient bunch. No casualties on y'alls side, very close but Gaelin saved them in time.)
Aryn finds 10 gold, Jinara finds nothing of value, Mucor finds 5 gold and Zinmaer finds 50 gold. Jinara, as you fly up and observe the area you see movement to the north then watch as Aryn leads the griffons out of the forest into the field. You see no other threats in the area.
The soldiers nod as each of you compliment them. They stand on edge with their heads on a swivel, the adrenaline still running through their veins.
(Gaelin, your teleportation circle lasts for 1 round basically so everyone could make it through by holding the dash action then running into the circle.)
(Can Jinara discern what the movement might be or how far away it is?)
Jinara will take full advantage of the his invisibility and fly (w/ a dash) North to take a look at the movement he spotted. He will fly up to 600 ft (30 seconds of flight) to the North to investigate. If he sees nothing of concern, he will fly back to the group, and land.
All of the griffons seem undisturbed but tired from a long day of travel and scouting. Zinmaer's size shrinks back to his normal size and the sun sets lower in the sky as the coolness of the evening begins to settle in the field. Gaelin draws a familiar large circle with glyphs that each begin to glow as he completes them. You all gather close and are teleported back to Castle Daybreak quickly exiting the teleportation circle room of the castle like a conveyor line. Valeera returns to her den and the griffons to their nests. The infantry soldiers rendezvous with the captain for a short briefing then report to their posts. As you exit the castle the sunlight has almost disappeared leaving the western sky in a deep purplish red hue and many of the inhabitants of the castle have gone to rest for the night.
(Does anyone wish to do anything before taking a long rest?)
Aryn will go to her quarters and find Sansa and tell her all about the battle and feed her tiny bits of meat. Then picking her up and carrying her on her shoulder she will make her way to the grove and thank Herbert for sending Valeera and the infantry. When she returns to her quarters she will place Sansa back on a perch she had made for her and pass out on the bed.
(Oh ya, I have 1000 gold in gems from a previous encounter, would a sapphire be included in that and reduce the cost? Also how long with the engraved armor and necklace for Sansa take?)
Gaelin will follow Aryn to her quarters to make sure she was okay before heading to Valeera's den. As he watched her excitedly interact with Sansa he would smile and give Aryn a small nod as he drifted away from the door and leave to visit Valeera. and Once he made it to Valeera he would thank her for coming to their aid and lean up against her large warm body and rest a moment with his eyes closed as they chatted about the battle, her new armor and anything else she wants to discuss. After an hour or so he would make his way to his quarters and sleep.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
( 8 Yes, there is a small Sapphire that will reduce the cost to 100 gold and take 3 days to complete. Reduce your gem total to 600gp. The necklace will cost 1500 gold and take 14 days to complete.)
Aryn- The tiny dragon responds with fear & concern at the description of the ogres and delight at your killing them. She happily chomps down on the morsels of food and curls into your shoulder as you walk. After placing Sansa on her perch she unfurls her wings in a long stretch and yawn before fluttering over to your bed where she sleeps above your head.
Gaelin- Valeera welcomes you warmly and says she's missed your company since you were gone most of the day scouting. She talks about chatting with Button and killing a delicious deer. At which point your stomach begins to groan, hungry from a long day of travel and battle. She snickers to herself and offers to catch you another but you decline and grab some dried meat from your pack. You resume your talks and Valeera goes on and on about how much she loves the new armor and the chest Mucor had made. She reluctantly lets you leave tired herself from the battle and you both drift off to sleep.
The night passes peacefully and each of you awake feeling renewed and somewhat different, you stretch as you rise your muscles feeling stronger and your mind sharper than normal. (Welcome to level 11!). You make your way to the dining hall where Herbert greets you with a small chest containing 500 platinum. (100 platinum each) He commends you for your efforts and Gaelin for his quick thinking. He informs you that Inara should be visiting sometime in the next three weeks and that the war has hit a standstill along the lines due in part to your groups interference with the hidden forces that are behind the lines.
Ten days pass by with no news of Drekthar forces. Your bonds with your griffons grows stronger and you begin to feel as one with the creatures. Aryn's griffon armor is completed and you look as Calypso's armor appears to be a living lightning rod. The small sapphire in the center of the armor gleams as the light hits it and the streaks of blue engraved into the armor appear to move and crackle even though they are set within the metal. Jinara, Gaelin- The upgrade to the tower is finalized and Iris informs you that she has studied the art of increasing one's potential even further. (Tower now grants 5 spell levels/ year and access to learn/ gain a 3rd level spell/slot.) Gaelin- With your help Valeera is able to extend the time of her shape change to 10 minutes. The werebear makes a full recovery with you help and begins to train with the army groups and captain. He reverts his form into that of a burly human male with thick brown hair named Theodore. He is grateful for your aid and pledges himself to you as your guard while you are at the castle. Mucor- Button has grown to about 2 feet tall and his mushroom cluster is now 10ft in diameter. The cluster of mushrooms echo his words when you speak and he informs that he can augment your spores to be more deadly if you spend 1 week straight submerged within the cluster. Zinmaer- You oversee the progress of the monastery and use your strength and agility to reduce the time of construction by 5 days.
Inara appears in the afternoon of the tenth day and greets you warmly but quickly turns the subject to business. "We have reason to believe there is a orphanage nearby that is performing sadistic rituals in the name of Vaeril. We are sending in a scouting party soon but the battles at the front lines have been taking most of our time. Despite the standstill there have been many losses on both sides. Be prepared to leave for the orphanage in a week. I will come for you when we are ready."
After arriving back to the keep, Mucor would have visited Button and given him the pile of goblin corpses. "Hello friend, I brought you a gift. I do hope that you enjoy. Our battle was pretty intense but likely we were able to defeat the horde with a bit of help" The minotaur would say with a snort.
As the days pass, Mucor would approach the two awakened bears that had been tasked with guarding the treasury and ask them to work with Theodore and train alongside him and the others. "Friends, I would like the two of you to have a more involved role here at Daybreak." He would say as he addressed the two bears. "If you agree to advance your training.. and agree to aid us in furture misisons if needed, I will be sure to provide you with proper weapons and armor.. and compensatee you well friends"
When visiting Button again, Mucor would look to button an nod when he mentions increasing the ability of his spores. "Friend.. I would accept any gift you have for me. I would enjoy our time together" He would say to the deathcap as he sits down among the mushrooms. "So Friend.. have you tried leaving the cluster yet?... I was wondering if soon you might be ready to see more of the world" He would say with a smile.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(Aryn will put her platinum in the vault. Is there an establishment for rogues or fighters similar to the monk monastery?)
Aryn will continue to use her helm to speak with Button and help him learn common as promised. She will try to warm Sansa up to the idea of flying with her on Calypso and continue to care for her as if it were her child. She will also visit Valeera and introduce Sansa to her. "Hey Valeera, this is Sansa. She is my friend and I'd like for you to watch after her while I am away." Aryn would bring Sansa to Valeera periodically if their introduction goes well so that the two dragons can become friends.
Performance (Button): 16 (if adv again from helm) 19
Intrigued by Inara's return and the opportunity to destroy the abomination of the evil orphanage Aryn will stand up as the anger wells up remembering the atrocities within the vision of a previous orphanage and say, "We will be ready whenever you need us. We will make sure not a single servant of Vaeril survives."
"Theodore, pleasure to meet you. I appreciate your service and would like to have to aid in training our forces here." Gaelin would say as he introduced Theodore to the bears with Mucor and to the other army groups. Gaelin would visit the blacksmith and have him fashion armor and a weapon or couple weapons for Theodore based on his preference and also commission some upgraded weapons for the awakened bears. (Let me know the total cost and I'll probably pay for it with the platinum we just got.)
Gaelin would spend much of his time training with Bronze Claw and chatting with Valeera. When he would leave Valeera's den at night he would cast Telepathic Bond on her and talk to her as they went to sleep. (high school romance style) With her increased duration Gaelin would begin to frequent the pool for relaxing massages and and baths. ;)
As he listened to Inara and watched his sister leap up from her seat Gaelin would nod and say, "Whatever you need us to do we are willing."

Investigation 9
(Hey guys! Sorry that I have been away and thanks to Trapfinder for keeping Zinmaer going! Work has been crazy lately, but I am excited to be back!)
Zinmaer would seem revitalized and after meeting back up with the others would investigate the battlefield. Investigation 18
(YAY!!! P.s. You REALLY need to read the last 40+ pages on the forum. You missed a LOT! hahaha Xtra has been epic!)
(Will do! Thanks for not killing me off just yet Xtra!)
"I just sent a message to Herbert asking for Valeera, apparently he decided to give us these fine soldiers as a bonus." Gaelin will say to Aryn before turning to the infantry.

(Can Jinara discern what the movement might be or how far away it is?)
Jinara will take full advantage of the his invisibility and fly (w/ a dash) North to take a look at the movement he spotted. He will fly up to 600 ft (30 seconds of flight) to the North to investigate. If he sees nothing of concern, he will fly back to the group, and land.
(The movement was Aryn bringing the griffons down to the field. My bad I should've phrased that better.)
(hahaha no worries ok. I become visible again and go check on Doom Tail)
(Assuming y’all are done in the field…)
