I guess the Lowerworld Ivy is leather, right, and okay for druids?

I'll claim one of those, unless it turns out to be metallic.

And I'll take...200 gold!

[Shoruke]

Lowerworld Ivy equipment is nonmetallic (fine for druids). Equipment made from Lowerworld Ivy is 3/4 the weight of normal (only when compared to metal armors), arcane failure chance goes down 5%, maximum dexterity bonus is increased by 1, and armor check penalties are lessened by 1. Basically it is the poor man's mithral. Oh, also it can't be bought on the floating continent; you might be able to produce some through other means, maybe, but other than that you won't find any for sale anywhere on Arcadia.

And I edited that loot list to include Duergar Rebecca's damaged equipment.

[Heron TSG]

I'll take 200gp and a heavy steel shield +1

Also, can anyone create lawful water? IS there such a thing?

[RAM]

Yes, yes.

[Heron TSG]

Great! I heard you like living so we'll put some water in my water so that we can live while we live! It's the perfect crime!

[RedWarrior0]

I'm doing a journal right now for a change, partially because I'llbe without computer access for the remainder of the week.

To my sister, who is gone,

The struggle in the caves continues. After some wandering, we met up with a group from another tunnel. We then went back in our path to a split. Following it, we came upon a chamber with Duergars. Then, the orb from Ibaea did something and an ashworm was summoned behind us. The creature was abnormally large and seemed to fight intelligently. On the chamber side, Lyca, Maelrigar, Vaba, and others fought two enlarged Duergars while the Clearwaters and I attempted to deal with the ashworm. Lyca took some damage, but Stihe suffered from two heavy doses of ashworm poison, not to mention the wounds themselves nearly driving her to death. Fortunately, she was healed in time and regained consciousness, but she is in a sessile state at the moment.

I feared for her, and shivered as the sting of the ashworm flashed upon her. I felt frigid when Lyca's blood and the blood of my compatriots spilled. I feel afraid - afraid of something indescribible, something which is bitter inside, a fear that lingers unnoticed but omnipresent. Help me, sister. Call the gods to show me what to do.

With love,
Ethan

As for loot divison, I say Stihe gets the potion, I like the look of those ivy breastplates, and y'all can fight over the non-coinage, sell the leftovers, and then split the cash.

[Kogan Loloklam]

For Loot, as Stihe is not able to express what she wants, it is up to you guys to ensure that a fair share is given to her, or not. She can't even open her eyes to see what is on the ground, so as long as Andre keeps his mouth shut...


Shoruke, about the Journal EXP... Does that count me as Level 4, or is there some strange algorithm going on for Rumus?

Also, How about a combo-flaw thing here effective immediately, in exchange for a feat at my next level? It's a minor negative combined with a flaw from Unearthed Arcana I think fits...

Here's the effects. I -believe- it meets the requirements for a good flaw since it is always active. This would be in lieu of that trait I was discussing earlier, since the top one is sort of that trait with the dodge bonus taken out. It's actually a little over the top since half of it is a flaw already listed in Unearthed Arcana, but I like the idea of Scoleciphobia and so I wanna toss it into the pot as well.

Spoiler: After effects of the Ash Worm (click to show/hide)

Scoleciphobia: If, at any time, there is an worm creature within 10 feet of the character that she can see, the character must pass a Will save (DC 15) or become shaken. This distance increases to 15 feet for Tiny worm creatures, and by an additional 5 feet for every size category increase in the worm creature. The Will save DC increases by 2 for a Tiny worm creature, and by 2 for every size category increase of the worm creature. Furthermore, traveling through spaces created by worms require passing a will save (DC 10) every hour or become shaken. The Will save DC increases by 1 for every hour spent in the cave. Once shaken the effect lasts until the cave is exited.
RP Justification: That worm really jacked her up, and I think it's appropriate given the proximity to death she came from it.

Meager Fortitude: -3 Penalty on all Fortitude Saves
RP Justification: That poison was really, really nasty. She took 5 more strength damage than she had. This all occurred within 12 seconds. Furthermore, some of that poison was injected directly into vital organs, and she was brought to the threshold of death then too. "She never was quite right after that incident..."

These flaws would apply immediately, and I'd be taking Weapon Finesse when I reach level 4.
RP Justification: She failed to land a touch attack against the Worm with the Necromantic spell she picked up from Raspul. It's possible she would have been better off had the hit landed. This might inspire her to look at her combat tactics and examine how to improve them.

[The Fool]

I'll take 700gp. It should be about what everyone gets that was here. Good job on the intense fight, Shoruke. That had me wondering if our party was a write-off for a moment.

I'll post a journal by the end of tonight.

EDIT: By the way, Shark Bolt now reminds me of this. If nothing else it is an awesome coincidence.

[Theoboldi]

I'll take 500 gold, 5400 silver and one of the shields if that bothers no one.

Spoiler: Journal (click to show/hide)

We have moved further into the cave, and discovered that the tunnel split after a point. This caused some concern from me, as apparently both tunnels had been digged by different creatures. Mael moved forward the way we were going, and I urged us to go after him. The gith didn't understand me, and I made a joke about his stupidity, which resulted in me getting punched. I have learned that he apparently doesn't like me and that not much would be lost if I made his corpse into a servant.

Moving further, we came across another band of adventurers, who also were working for the local government in killing the monsters. For a moment we considered to work with them, but then decided to split up again.
We moved back and took the other turn into a sand filled cave. There, we were ambushed by a bunch of dark-skinned dwarfes, Duergar, if I recall the name correctly. Two of them took place at the entrance to a great hall and we were getting ready to atttack, as suddenly the orb my group had picked up in Ibea began transmitting a voice, a mocking one at that.
To my shock, a gigantic sandworm suddenly appeared from it, and placed itself on the other end of the hallway.

After that, I found myself between a rock and a hard place. On both sides surrounded, I decided to first summon some centipedes to help Mael and the gith as I suddenly heard a scream. Stithe had been rather painfully hit by the worm, and her body hit the ground with a terrible crushing noise, indicating that it apparently had broken several bones. I finished my summonings and ran over to help with more summoned creatures, but was one-upped by Andre, who shot a powerfull burst of flames towards the worm, turning it into a burning heap of flesh.I finished my second summoning and yelled at my creatures to attack the dwarfes, when suddenly a gigantic orb of fire that had erupted around Mael, targeted me.

I was able to dodge, luckily and found myself engulfed by flames, none of them hitting or burning me. It was a wonderful moment, me yelling orders at the top of my lungs, laughing at the pain of our miserable attackers all the while standing in that arcane fire. It ended quickly though, as the flames caught up with me and gave me some rather nasty burns. I quickly got out of the fire and spent the rest of the battle watching my servants and my companions kill.

Also, I think the corpses we have now should be sufficient to create another skelettal minion for me.

On another note, the part where Vaba punched Raspul somehow reminds of the incident with Uskton and Corina.

[Dwarmin]

I was thinking, since this is the first time it came up for me. The armor I looted would be medium sized for Duergars, but Andres obviously a halfling, small sized.

Is armor considered to be "scaled down" to small when I use it? Or can I not wear it at all?

^D&D Newbie question

[Kogan Loloklam]

It is Magic so it automatically resizes.

[Heron TSG]

Normally it would not scale. Magical items do scale.

[RAM]

Since nobody has expressed an interest, I may as well take the warhammers and sell them...

What is the group fund looking like?

[The Fool]

I'm not sure if it has been updated in a while, but there is a party fund in the OP. On an unrelated note how much would it cost to add a Flaming (+1d6 damage) property to a longbow? +1 bonus prices are apparently suppose to be set by the DM.

I also will need these magic items approved (should be it for a long time):

Spoiler: Magic Compendium Items (click to show/hide)

Collar of Healing 5,000g (MIC, p.89)
Dimension Stride Boots 2,000g (MIC, p.94)
Enduring Amulet 1,500g (MIC, p.97)
Gauntlets of Energy Transformation 1,000g (MIC, p.102)
Sandals of Sprinting 2,300g (MIC, p.131)
Watch Lamp 500g (MIC, p.147)
Jumping Caltrops 250g (MIC, p.162)
Magic Bedroll 500g (MIC, p.164)

I'll be buying the Watch Lamp, and the Dimension Stride Boots if they are approved. Should solve the trouble we had climbing, as well as the lack of light sources.

I'll be posting a Dire Wolf animal companion sheet in a bit.

EDIT: Dire wolves are awesome, but REALLY easy to hit. Not to mention that they may not be able to go everywhere normally if there is a choke point, but I'm sure there is a work-around. 'Like something in that Bag of Holding could stop me! Wait... wolves? Oh god!'

EDIT3: Now I know why dire wolves seem so strong... They're a -6 level adjustment... not -3. I'll take something else for now. Sheet link removed.

[Vherid]

Yeah sorry couldn't show up, I'm currently the only one of the house for a week while the family is on vacation, and with 4 cats and 2 dogs, not a lot of time to actually commit to something for periods of time lol.
