((I need someone to link me to the OOC thread. I can't find it.))

Kyle goes and stands back on the beach while Jack and Derry head off to continue the search for wild game. It's not long before they come upon the creature Derry was originally tracking, a small hairy rat-like creature with a gaping maw. It's teeth are many and sharp, and so messily placed that it can't close it's mouth without stabbing itself. Consequently the pitiful monster dribbles a line of slobber mixed with dark red blood onto the ground as it hobbles towards you, snarling furiously.

Bethany fires an arrow up at the tree. She hits something, and something dark orange falls and hits the ground. It's a small, soft-skinned fruit of some kind. An aromatic yellow fluid dribbles from the spot where the arrow struck. It smells delicious. You've picked it up and are about to take a bite when Alex snatches it from your hand. Hey! That's mine! You run after him as he pads over to the beach and plops down in the sand. You cease your protests once you notice all the other materials he's gathered, and instead start to watch with curiosity.

Alex makes a small hole in the sand and buries what he's gathered: a cutting from the Yellow Sunrise Blossom, and the pulp of the Star Fruit. He draws an odd symbol over the spot where the ingredients are buried. This is an identification sigil. It will give us an idea of what sort of effects these might have. He removes a rough, leather bound tome with blank pages from his robe and opens it before placing it atop the symbol. He draws another symbol off to one side, and the ground under the tome flashes. When you look again, you can see freshly drawn runes written in a scrawling hand upon the pages. Alex picks up the tome and begins studying the words. It'll take me a moment to translate them. The spirit writes in the Olde Tongue. Beth digs up the spot where the sigil (now vanished) had been drawn. She makes a decent sized hole but can't find any evidence of the buried samples.

The two brothers, Dran and Jerik, plod their way across the Kessik desert towards their home at Great Oasis to recuperate following their latest expedition. They're currently arguing over whether or not they should sell their latest find, a Tresnian bubble artefact. Dran was wounded getting it and is using that fact to pressure Jerik into allowing him to sell it. He partially wants to get rid of it because his brother, being of magical talent, is the only one who can use it. Jerik, being the sensible one (at least he thinks so), thinks they ought to keep it, arguing that they could get even more treasure by taking advantage of it's powers.

Kyle decides to see if he can climb any better thanks to his new powers.

"Dran, I still think this Bubble Sphere could serve us well. I mean, I could use it to defend ourselves from further harm, but... I suppose that it's value would also help us..."

Basically, it's supposed to be a sort of mage who basically delves into various ruins and other places to discover magic.

As for what kind, mostly damage spells. And for weapons it's likely just a small knife or a staff.

Derry charges the animal, thrusting his spear at it's misshapen maw.
