"Two heads are better then one." The words drift across the room.

The world of light and darkness have always had small things like bits of dialog cross the void to the other side. It how the world of darkness even knew about the other world, but this one bit of advice change the lives of the seven in the room.

"Is that why we lost?" "Maybe we can use it to win this time." "But where are we going to find a two headed leader?" "Give me a moment-" "You idiot! They mean a group of people!" "Okay, where are going to find a group leader?" "Well there are 7 people here..." "And the palace of Jade has a working portal..."

With hastily made plans, the group travel to the Jade palace, were they met a knight of darkest night. They explain and he listen. With a condition, the knight let them pass with the group now 8.

((Is there any RPing to be done? Do we vote via RPing? Or normal voting?))

((Either is fine. Just remember to bold the important parts so I can quickly count.))

[~Neri]

((Oh gods that grammar SH, Stolrak would be throwing fits if he read that.))

[LuckyKobold]

"Trogdor Say We Go To Mission One, Kittens Needs Eatens!"

[~Neri]

"Although my undead do not require sustenance beyond magical essence. The rest if you require sustenance if the flesh and wheat."

((I don't think Undead require sleep or food last time I checked. -8 food says an incorporeal Lich eats normal food and having the sleeping place state 8 seems a bit odd for an undead.))

[SOLDIER First]

"I say we visit the first location as well. Food is vital."

Lyleth votes place one.

"Although my undead do not require sustenance beyond magical essence. The rest if you require sustenance if the flesh and wheat."

((I don't think Undead require sleep or food last time I checked. -8 food says an incorporeal Lich eats normal food and having the sleeping place state 8 seems a bit odd for an undead.))

((Cats!!!! And you have a mind, you need to rest it at some point.))

((Edit: 3man75 shall be gone for two weeks, so pretend that Brian Black is in his room or something.))

[BlitzDungeoneer]

So it is, so it is...
Rankja also decides on place one.

[~Neri]

((Mind resting doesn't require sleep though. The main reason humans sleep is to repair their body and sort through junk data accumulated in their mind over the day. Incorporal makes the first reason obsolete, the second reason makes sense, but can be solved via meditation sessions to manually sort out junk data and organize the mind, as being an Incorporal being, He lacks a brain that can automatically do it. Sorta makes Sleep more of a spell theorizing time.))

((Wasn't thinking about the cats though~ That makes sense~))

[scapheap]

((Don't forget to make a party or choose a leader to chose the party.))

[~Neri]

((What's the likelyhood of encountering people on the mission? Stolrak would only want to go if there are servants to be made.))

[scapheap]

((What's the likelyhood of encountering people on the mission? Stolrak would only want to go if there are servants to be made.))

((That would be out of character knowledge, but it would be very unlikely to avoid all encounters. I will say two of the missions have a path of no enemies, but you will not know looking at the map I'll give you.))

[~Neri]

((I'm sure he can guess the potential encounter chance.))

((Also are we reatricted to one mission only? Or can we split up into two groups?))

[BlitzDungeoneer]

((I'm sure he can guess the potential encounter chance.))

((Also are we reatricted to one mission only? Or can we split up into two groups?))

((Please do explain how he would do that, Kevak.))
