Whew, I lost this, thought it had died.

Who wants to start rediscovering modern science with me?

I got a accounting book in my bag, we can use that to restart the bureaucracy.

Physically Im thin and strong, hardly ever get sick, but will get tired in about 5 minutes if i have to exert myself without pacing. So wrestling i get tired, but hiking or digging i can go for like 8 hours.

Mentally I dont have any more raw brainpower than the average person, but I am calm, rational and a fast learner, with an excellent sense of perspective, but I am impatient and irrational people frustrate me. I am lazy when happy but strong willed when frustrated.

Hastur is bad at haggling but good at negotiating a rational deal, and am too lazy or impatient to get exited about hard work unless it benefits me. Hastur is vain and greedy, but fair to others. i grumble working in the sun, and dislikes beer but loves luiqor. I am finicky about germs and cant cook, I am NOT sympathetic or generous to strangers.

Hastur? Hastur?! Hastur!

As we walk, I keep an eye out for kobolds, and try and "herbalist" up some plants.

You do so, and find quite a bit of food!


EVENT!

As you are walking through a forest clearing an old woman steps out from behind a bush. Her fingernails are like talons, gripping a knobbled oak staff. Her eyes look as if a giant had pressed two burning bits of coal into her face, and gouged out some wrinkles while he was at it. Her snow white hair is long and tagled, flowing down her back like the thicket you just emerged from.

"You are not following the path you were given." Says the Crone. Her voice is the rasp of dried leather rustling through grass, of crackling flames and smoke. She gives off an aura of great power.

"Find yourself the answers in the town of Oslee, in the hands of the forsaken-and-remade. Find yourself the solution in the caverns below Drumdeeps, the smoothe hole the dwarves have made. Find yourself the key in the black tower of Arg'Bonodel, obsidian of goblin-make. And find yourself the gate back home in the island in the lake.

"But stray not from the path ye be given, lest ye call the gods themselves upon your head! Kill not the forlorn hunter, else he be your death, and let not the key from the tower enter the hands of the noble long dead.

"Beware the one that you have killed, and all her little cubs. Beware the ones that ye have spurned, for they still wish your love. And beware the pups of whom ye have befriended, for they shall be your doom."

The Crone is silent, then walks away into the forest. You go to investigate, but she has left no trace of her passing...

((from now on, if you want to look at the map, or the team, or any of that, ask me. It's a bit of a hassle putting it up every time.))

[Lokii]

A-what?

Crazy old people. She was probably senile.

[Hastur]

I get up from the ground and try to clear my head. i conclude I must be dreaming and try to will into being a beautiful redhead that parachutes down and with a case of milkshakes. Once that doesnot work I ask my fellows who that woman was and where she came from. Also i start gathering up my things from the ground and putting them in my little crate.


I will leave behind one of my electric guitars because i cant carry it, I will carry my small items in my crate, sling my black guitar over my back and carry my wooden guitar in my right hand since making sweet music might come in handy later.


' "what path was she going on about? she referenced some places do we have a map? who are you people?"


I search through all my things, "DAMN" so many usefull things didnt get sucked in! my anatomy textbook and my boots were on the floor, I had a flashlike you recharage by shaking it just out of reach, I wasnt even wearing my fire retardant nomex clothes!

Hey anyone wanna trade? i need some steel toed boots and food. (I will start searching for food in my spare time)

Mutter to self, "Crazy old lady." Continue onward to the site.

Same... I feel compelled to ignore her prophecy, just to see what happens.

[Hastur]

So thinking about what she was saying, my theory is that we should ask around in Oselee, get a key from the black goblin tower, and take the key to the island. But we should found a fort and prepare before we even think about storming a goblin fortress. i for one am in no hurry to die, and thats assuming that the old crone is not full of it! Hell im in no hurry at all, what is waiting for us anyway? a way back?

(I cant vote in the poll but i think shes right but love to lose, or at least have some fun before I do)

Contemplate this. Mutter, "He maybe onto something. We can build up our strength and then do whatever she was babbling about"

[Heron TSG]

Mutter "What's an Oslee?" in a muttery fashion.
