Waffle: FIRST IN THE LOG!! FUCK YOU GUYS
Waffle: OOOHHHHH
Waffle: 1d20 waffle rules
Fortuna: Waffle, waffle rules: [10] = 10
Waffle: huh
Blaze: I haven't got the song found yet, so until then, go with this.
Blaze: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TROFBCH149AC8436E2
Igfig: I should have had mibbit open in four other windows so I could have four people named variants on 'tuna' enter the chat instead
Igfig: anyhoo
Varus: what is the song we need
Igfig: LAST TIME ON EBERRON
Varus: wow
Varus: ok
Varus: this isnt
Varus: this wont work blaze
frosty: WOOOOOOOOOOO
Blaze: I'm working on a festivaley church area song, until I find it, that song will just have to do Waffle.
Varus: jesus
Igfig: oh wait Iwant to hear tthis song now before I start recapping
Igfig: what
Igfig: no
Varus: HAHA
frosty: hahahhaha
Blaze: Teehee.
Igfig: right
Igfig: so
Igfig: LAST TIME ON EBERRON
Varus: blaze it gets completely trapped at the end cause theres so many links
Igfig: You had come to Flamekeep to notify the nation of Thrane that the Lord of Blades was advancing on them
Blaze: I hadn't tuned it any, I didn't upload it either, though I could have, I just checked to see if someone else had uploaded it.  I have to work on finding the actually appropriate song still fater all.
Varus: what about chrono trigger, the millenium fesitval is going on in that game
Igfig: with his host of warforged in the floating fortess Chydris
frosty: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRTWWYZ13B00B9572C
Igfig: Arryn got you in touch with a contact in Flamekeep, a woman named Thradi who was the secretary to a cardinal
Varus: this is some good rap ben
Igfig: Cardinal Neskus
frosty: yes it is
frosty: <3 will smith
Blaze: I dunno Waffle, I tend to stick with music I actually have on my computer, which is limiting at times, yar.
Varus: youtube to mp3 it
Varus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohlfTrhvezE
Varus: also this
Varus: because mario galaxy has the best soundtrack in gaming history
Igfig: he didn't really believe you, but he told you a bit about the politics of Thrane: the 11-year old Keeper Jaela is the head of state, but she is kept isolated by Cardinal Krozen, who controls the Council of Cardinals and is 100% not going to believe you
Varus: and then waffle misinterprated what that meant based on real life monarchies
Blaze: That song is fun and galaxy does have some amazing pieces, yar, but it also isn't very churchy.
frosty: this is music i had on my computer
Igfig: yeah, it was a little more nuanced than that
Varus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=399YneFTwh0
Varus: perfect
frosty: i came here tonight to hear the crowd go
frosty: BOOM
frosty: shake shake shake the room
Igfig: Jaela is very good, powerful, and wise despite her age, but she rarely gets a chance to exercise power
Varus: so lets kidnap her
Igfig: she's kept sheltered
frosty: goddammit waffle
frosty: you gotta at least /try/ to follow the plan before blowing it
Varus: FINE
Blaze: I might have found something.
Varus: THEN BIRD TALKS TO HER BLAH BLAH
Varus: lets see if she can hear it over the booming crowd
Blaze: Let us see how it loops.
Varus: dubstep crowd blocks out any birds
Blaze: It isn't very festival-ey though.
Igfig: aye, your plan is to get to her at her next public appearance, which was four days hence, on the festival of Promisetide
frosty: and then those dick spirits showed up and stole my gf
frosty: :(
Blaze: And it loops terribly.
Blaze: A shame, using a song from Little Inferno would have been fitting.
Blaze: Though maybe a different one would still work.
Varus: maybe if youplanned on burning the place to the ground again
Igfig: aye, shadow demons appeared, stole a bunch of the quori-bound dragonshards, and then were teleported by parties unknown to Chydris
Blaze: It is a city whose center of worship is based on a giant silver flame, these people love a good blaze.
Igfig: so the Lord of Blades now has the shards
Varus: blaze it then
Varus: some of the shards
Igfig: but yeah, you spent these four days preparing and doing... what were you all doing, again?
Varus: you said he only took like 5
Varus: i was researching
frosty: small talking
Igfig: yeah, not all of them
Varus: and im up to 2 weeks of research i think 
Varus: on making ben into the fire lord 
Igfig: Oh right, you were doing your research
Igfig: Tell me how you've been conducting your research
Igfig: yeah
Igfig: what sort of stuff have you been doing
Varus: ive been summoning minor elementals and feeding them controlled fire ball spells, slowly increasing in size to see what they could handle
Igfig: right
Varus: then ive been researching runes and magical glyphs that i could incscribe into a circle around them to increase the size of the magic they can intake or alternatively cycle the magic around inside them instead of exploding them
Blaze: Alright, I think I have it, this one loops significantly better.
Blaze: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRRIWMA13E818E440C&sq=0&thresh=40
Igfig: it's been a delicate process, as using too little power just gets absorbed (fire damage on a fire elemental), and too much tends to make them explode
Igfig: yeah this sounds good Blaze
Varus: yes that is why ive been making use of the runes
Igfig: aye
Blaze: Hooray, still got to use a song from Little Inferno, this makes me giddy.
frosty: good work
Igfig: what sort of safety measures have you been taking during your experiments?
Varus: *listens to bens rap instead*
Varus: well ive been doing it in a sort of
Varus: steel boxy thing first off so they dont burn the ship down
Varus: secondly it lets me control the atmosphere in there
frosty: waffle is down with the fresh prince
Varus: like how much oxygen flows into their fire
Igfig: right
Igfig: have you been doing anything with the fireball core during all of this?
frosty: oh man i should see how all the raps fit in this thing
Varus: its in the sock so i havent been able to do much with it cause if we take it out itll explode
Varus: but ive been sending lil tendrils of magic into the sock and prodding at it to see what i can learn about it
Igfig: where is the sock, anyway?
Varus: when im in the ship its in my pocket
Varus: when im out of the ship its in a complex safe spot in my room
Varus: which is a hidden whats the word im looking for here
Varus: like a pocket
Varus: in a shelf
Varus: well, drawer
Varus: im imagining how light hid the deathnote 
Igfig: extradimensional pocket?
Igfig: also I like the thought of you holding this thing in a pocket right next to your crotch
Varus: of course
Igfig: living dangerously
Igfig: I have not seen deathnotre
Varus: thatd be better yar
Varus: hold it in a pocket dimension
Varus: oh
Igfig: well, if you have access to anything like that, I'm not sure you do
Varus: well he made his drawer into a hidden thing at the bottom of it that you could only open by pushing a small hole he drilled at the bottom with a pencil or pen
Blaze: Do you mean like a drawer with a falce bottom?
Varus: yes
Varus: false bottom
Varus: and no i have no way for a pocket dimension
Igfig: ah, cool
Varus: if you lift it from the top a fire goes and burns the deaethnote
Varus: in this case it burns the sock and kills the intruder when the orb explodes
Igfig: do you have access to Flame Trap? You could do that too
Varus: i do not
Blaze: And would probably destroy a portion of the ship.
Igfig: if that's still a spell, it might just be wrapped into glyph of warding
Varus: could i inscribe a form of dimension door that teleports it to my pocket if the false bottom is opened wrong?
Igfig: that would cut into your research time quite a bit
Igfig: you could probably do something mundane that would set off the trap though
Igfig: flask of alchemist's fire or something
Varus: sure
Varus: that instead then
Igfig: (it would cut into your research time because you'd be basically crafting a small magic item)
Varus: who needs dimension gate when ben is burning the world
Igfig: aright, cool
Varus: no itd be runes
Varus: which i was already studying
Varus: hmm
Varus: well no that would be a magic item
Varus: never mind
Varus: ill do the flask
Varus: killing the intruder is much funner anyways
Igfig: and "runes" is a pretty broad category
Varus: yeah when i say rune i mean a ritual circle with all kinds of funky stuff inscribed
Varus: magic words around it that i read off
Igfig: yeah
Igfig: aye
Igfig: in any case, your research has been progressing faster than you expected, actually
Varus: excellent
Varus: ig have you actually thought of the numbers for when i do this to ben
Igfig: I have
Varus: excellent
Varus: let us move on with the kidnapping thne
Varus: i mean bird talking UGH
frosty: have you shared any of this info with me?
Varus: fortuna should we kidnap the young girl or bird talk her?
Fortuna: I could tell you...
Fortuna: But I probably shouldn't.
Varus: dang
Varus: and yeah ive kept frosty updated 
Varus: on my research
Igfig: you've managed to get a small elemental to retain the charge for a while, but not permanently, and while it did its form changed in some weird ways and it exhibited some new spell-like abilities
Varus: interesting
Igfig: Frosty, you said you've been going around and talking to people?
Varus: id have made extensive notes of that and what i could modify to keep the properties logner
Igfig: very good
Varus: id also have had it cast some of the spells
frosty: yeah, last time you updated me on all the local small talk
Igfig: How are you presenting yourself and approaching people?
Igfig: oh
Igfig: Oh yeah, I guess we did talk about that last time
frosty: i rolled a 20 to talk
Varus: lets not reveal ourselves too much to the public though
Varus: in case we say YEAH THATS OUR BOAT
frosty: too late
Varus: and we need to make an escape
Igfig: I'd forgotten, that was a while ago
Igfig: gonna go find that and paste it in
frosty: aight
Varus: ben
Varus: have you considered
Varus: booming
Varus: shaking the room
Varus: or alternatively
Varus: being ready for him yet
frosty: [18:45] <~Igfig> Despite Frosty's status as a large pillar of flame, he manages to get to know the local goings-on fairly well
frosty: [18:46] <~Igfig> weather's been decent, people are worried (as always) about the whole Karrnath situation, House Cannith is on the hunt for some arsonists
frosty: [18:46] <~Igfig> local sports teams are doing well
frosty: there
Igfig: actually ben could you do that?
Igfig: oh thank you
frosty: no
Igfig: Just to elaborate on some of that, reports are that Karrnath is definitely mobilizing their forces, but nobody's sure to what extent, and they still haven't made an official statement
Igfig: the king's funeral hasn't been held yet either
Varus: well
Varus: if their forces are mobilizing that could actually prove useful
Varus: if we can convince them it was the warforged
Varus: they would just have to turn their eyes the other direction
frosty: more people to die!
Igfig: Also, tensions are a little high in the neighbourhoods where people who don't follw the Flame tend to live
Varus: any idea why?
frosty: this is small talk 
Igfig: well, it may be just that it's Promisetide
Varus: i get the feeling theres more to it than that
Igfig: which, let me get a screenshot from the book
Igfig: http://gyazo.com/27652bfa23c4c84e20da6720cc871ade
Blaze: I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess things tend to get a little hot around the Silver Flame at Promistide.
Varus: was that a pun
frosty ba dum tshhh
Igfig: but yes, it does seem to be perhaps more tense than usual this year
Varus: yeah i could see why thatd be a lil offensive
Igfig: And finally Blaze, what have you been up to these last few days?
Blaze: Um, well I know I bought those alchemical powders for making fire different colors.
Igfig: all right
Igfig: that doesn't take all that long though
Varus: blaze lazed around
Varus: lameee
Blaze: I probably looked at the birds and animals around cause yar, and I probably very foolishly got as close to the giant silver flame at the top of the church as I could.
Varus: i remember he said he researched a bird that the silver flame religion likes so he could get closer to her during the ceremony
Blaze: Because of course I would get super close to the really big flame.
Varus: haha
Igfig: aright
Varus: lets say metaphysical waffle compelled him in game during that time
Varus: it was 4 days right
frosty: blaze was researching religious birds
Igfig: yep
Varus: that could fill a bit of time
Varus: maybe he killed some time lighitng ben on different colours
Blaze: Yar, was there anything fun about going up next to the silver flame or was it just a really big really hot flame?
Blaze: Cause at that size it would have to give off a lot of heat I'd think.
Igfig: so you found that the peregrine falcon is the closest thing they have to a sacred bird in Flamekeep; they nest in the spires of the cathedrals
Igfig: It was, in fact, a big, hot flame, silver-colourd
Igfig: less hot than you'd think, and with less fuel
Varus: was it just a religious symbol or was there like
Varus: actually something to it
Igfig: evidently fuelled and made larger by magic
Varus: like was it a flame they made to look pretty or is it THE silver flame
Igfig: this was just a fire
Blaze: Seems like a flame they made to look pretty, yar.
frosty: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TREZQWX149B2EEFE21
Igfig: the actual silver flame is much harder to get at
Varus: hm
Varus: i wonder where it is
Varus: but ok
Blaze: Which still leaves it as a very large and pretty flame, which is good enough for Blaze.
Igfig: it's supposed to be somewhere in the heart of the main cathedral, but where exactly you don't know
Varus: theoretically what would happen if that flame on the church went out
frosty: ^ my soundtrack for the moment
Varus: the one on top
Varus: wuold they just relight it
Varus: or has it become a self fulfilling prophecy of doom
Igfig: probably, but that would be taken as a very bad omen
Varus: yar thought so
Varus: ok
Varus: just thinking of in case the fight comes here we need the fire to shine brightly for morale
Igfig: and you would probably be arrested if you tried to put it out
Varus: of course
Varus: sacrilige
Blaze: And it would probably be rather tough to do so as well.
Igfig: yep
Igfig: that as well
Blaze: With all the magic and alchemical stuff.
Igfig: indeed
Varus: regardless
frosty: run em jewels fast run em run em run em jewls fast
Blaze: And after watching the birds I probably watch the people, as a bird, yar.
Igfig: watching for anything in particular, or just trying to get a feel for the place?
Varus: rumour spotting?
Blaze: Well, we know that the demon that got away with our crystal didn't go here, Frosty was already rumor spotting, yar.
Blaze: I'm not sure what I'd be on the lookout for if I was, so nothing in particular.
Blaze: Just a general feel and such.
Varus: how about
Varus: blaze was researching what that demon was a little bit
Varus: in a library
Varus: catalogue of monsters
Blaze: I could probably do that too, that'd make sense.
Varus: just a quick int roll to see what we get
Blaze: Yar, cause for the most part everything I'm doing is pretty quick, birds, general feel of watching people, those would take a bit but the people one can be spread out across multiple days and I'd probably do the bird stuff in a day or less, probably the same day I check out the fire.
Igfig: Well, about the people, you get the sense that they're a people of mostly great restraint, but if you go too far they'll switch gears in an instnat
Igfig: explosive but rarely shown tempers
Igfig: people of great passion, but passions kept under control
Igfig: decorum and tradition are important to them
Varus: not a single brothel eitehr
Igfig: a few in the seedier parts of town
frosty: ;)
Blaze: So for more fire comparisons, the exterior is a fine oven and the fire inside blazes bright and fuels them towards their goals, but is kept safely within it.
Igfig: sure
Igfig: As for the demons, those were shadow demons
Varus: no check to see how much we learn?
Igfig: oh, sure
Varus: roll it blaze
Varus: you were the one researching
frosty: i already rolled
frosty: 3 weeks ago
Blaze: Oh right right.
Igfig: I have a baseline of what I was going to tell you, but I'll give you some extra tidbits if you roll well
frosty: BOOM
Igfig: oh
Varus: frosty were you researching the demons
frosty: i got the rumours
Igfig: well, shadow demons are sort of the ghosts of demons that die on the material plane but are somehow kept from returning to the Abyss to reform
Igfig: or, well, Khyber
Varus: so they stick around being angry
Blaze: Oh right, I think he rolled to figure out what they were either during or just after the fight with them, and he rolled well and was very knowledgable.
Igfig: they don't tend to be all organized, since that's not a very demonic way to do things
Varus: well
Igfig: but they're often used as agents by more powerful fiends
Varus: there are demon hierarchies working for the arch demosn i thought
Varus: yeah
Igfig: demons are weird about hierarchies
Igfig: because they are really chaotic
Varus: its just whoevers stronger
Igfig: so it's more who's the strongest one here right now, yeah
Varus: whicchh
Varus: would mean
Varus: that there is a demon at the fortress moving towards us
Varus: a relatively strong one too
Varus: and judging by what we learend from the lord of blades with his terrible lying
Varus: he is likely being controlled by some terrible demon
Blaze: Well, he doesn't think he is being controlled, so probably more he is being manipulated by someone.
Varus: if hes under direct mind control he may not know
Blaze: Also true.
Igfig: it's pretty hard to mind control a constuct
Blaze: Also also true-er.
Blaze: Or, truthier.
Blaze: That looks better.
Igfig: heh
Varus: is that everything we've been doing over the last 4 days?"
Igfig: all right, so
frosty: more ture
frosty: ture
frosty: true
Igfig: Well, Orrin was probably doing stuff, but we can't really ask him
frosty: that one
Varus: he said he was performing
Varus: getting money
Igfig: oh right
Igfig: okay, so the day after the theft
frosty: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRCYPBZ149BB610324  clicked itunes random and it brought this one
frosty: i applaud you itunes
Igfig: is the festival day!
Varus: nah
frosty: wait
Varus: thats not good rap
Varus: EXCELLENT
frosty: night after
Varus: Ben is crying in his room
Varus: at the loss of his shards
frosty: somethig like that
Igfig: The streets are thronged with people going to the cathedral and smaller churches
Igfig: honoring the Flame for the paradise to come, and the Host for letting this all happen, hur hur
Varus: we should move in position early
Varus: is there anyway i can stay out of sight exactly 500 meters away from the balcony 
Varus: the max distance for my dimension door
Varus: like i can find some alley
Igfig: everybody in their best clothes, walking through the slightly muddy streets (it rained yesterday)
Varus: thats oddly specific FOR A DUNGEON MASTER TO SAY
Blaze: Says the guy trying to be in position to kidnap the head of a religion from right in front of both security, other priests, and the throngs of followers of the religion she heads.
frosty_the_boatman:  dangit, net went
Varus: tru blaze
Varus: tru
Igfig: Blaze and Frosty, where are you going?
Varus: igfig can i make a search check to find a good location
Igfig: think of the place as being like St. Peter's Square
Varus: i have no idea what that looks like
Igfig: https://www.google.ca/search?q=st+peter%27s+square&espv=2&biw=1366&bih=621&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=tVFpVLGnEInLsASH3oC4Ag&sqi=2&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ#imgdii=_
frosty quit.
Varus: dang
frosty_the_boatman  flies off as soon as everyone is off the boat
Varus: ok
Blaze: I think I sprinkle some of the blue flame alchemical stuff into Frosty since that is the mourning color right?  And he may still be upset over the kidnapping.
Varus: so i can hide beyond the walls there
Varus: on the other side
Varus: good distance away
Varus: and ben no we need you close
Igfig: so there are lots of colonnades around the sides, there are the walls, there are some buildings nearby (although those are all church-related buildings)
frosty_the_boatman: too bad
Varus: ben why
Varus: what about our escape
Blaze: And I'm probably in peregrine form already because I don't think I'd be comfortable down there amongst the crowd.
Blaze: So:
frosty_the_boatman  goes in direction of castle float
Igfig: so, uh, yeah
Igfig: Varus goes to scout his starting location, Blaze goes bird, Frosty stays on the ship to cover your escape?
frosty joined #pwot_dnd.
Varus: i think frosty is leaving to go to the warforged
Varus: and betray us
Igfig: Except that yeah
Igfig: that is actually what happens
frosty: tee hee
Igfig: immediately after you disembark
Varus: guess i wont BE GIVING FROSTY THE FIRE GEM
Igfig: he lifts off and heads in the wrong direction
Igfig: yeah, actually
Igfig: here's the question
Igfig: Frosty, when did you try to steal the sock
frosty: wrong direction???
Blaze-Peregrine: (Oh snap)
Varus: ben wouldnt have known where it is
Varus: im not THAT silly 
Igfig: wrogn direction for helping you two, I mean
Varus: and wouldnt have told him that
frosty: during the night
frosty: ah
Varus: during the night when the shadows were attacking?
Igfig: right direction to go to intercept the LoB
frosty: if i dont find it in the night ill search again when im a bit away
Varus: Yeah youd have to search
frosty: 1d20+3 search
Fortuna: frosty, search: [13] = 16
Varus: i dotn think you can do so immediately right now
Blaze-Peregrine: I feel like Varus would have to do an opposing roll for how hidden it is.
Varus: since you wouldnt have gone far
Igfig: this is a sort of semi-flashback
frosty: yeah
Varus: oh ok
Varus: im trying to think of varus sleeps with it on him
Igfig: and yeah, Varus you should make an opposed check
Varus: i did say its on me when im in the ship
Varus: but idk about sleeping with it
Varus: Fortuna does varus sleep with the sock on him
Varus: Fortuna does varus sleep with the sock on him?
Fortuna: I don't think so.
Varus: ok
Igfig: yeah, it'd probably be in your drawer then
Varus: so whats the roll for how hidden itd be
Igfig: also brb
Varus: ben will also have my research notes there btw
Varus: those arent hidden with the sock
Varus: theyre scattered all over the desk beneath my hammock
frosty: heheh
Igfig: Well, it'd be an Int check... do you think it should be with or without prof bonus?
Varus: definitely prof
Blaze-Peregrine: Might it be an Int based deception check?
Varus: since im proficient in search
frosty: well he is asleep
Varus: id know how to oppose someone searching
Igfig: Oh yeah! Int-based Deception sounds perfect
Varus: that sounds good too
Varus: 1d20+6
Fortuna: Varus, 1d20+6: [15] = 21
Varus: woop woop
Varus: fuck yo 16 ben
Igfig: well
frosty: ugghhh
Igfig: Frosty didn't find it before, then
Varus: would i have found evidence of his search?
frosty: we had a fight in the night
Varus: not in my room though
frosty: i tore a lot of shit up
Igfig: good question. Frosty, Stealth check vs Varus' passive perception
Varus: well
Varus: if ben just said he tore a lot of shit up
Varus: first thing id do is check on the sock
frosty: 1d20+5
Fortuna: frosty, 1d20+5: [12] = 17
Varus: that beats it
Igfig: well if you tore a lot up in his room, that changes things
Varus: but if he tore shit up i might just keep it on me for a day or so until my nerves calmed
Varus: varus can get a bit paranoid about his research 
Varus: since research is sort of his life
frosty: no wait, i tore up the fight room, whichever that was
Igfig: ohh
Varus: that was in the hull with all the boxes of gems and stuff
Igfig: that was the hold
Varus: yar
frosty: ahh
frosty: okay so no tear up Varus room
Varus: passive is 10+wis+prof?
Varus: or just 10+wis
frosty: so 17 then
Igfig:  10 +wis if you're untrained
Varus: i am trained
Blaze-Peregrine: Passive for him is 15, yar, you passed it with the stealth check.
Igfig: then 10+wis+prof
Varus: yeah 15
Varus: passed
Igfig: so yeah, you didn't notice the tampering
Varus: ok
frosty: woo
Varus: curse you ben
Varus: dangit he has the location stone too
Varus: ben OOC how long have you been planning this
Igfig: so would you be likely to keep the sock on you on this mission? I kinda doubt it
Varus: well
Varus: acutally
Varus: varus does want that go out in a blaze of glory type thing
Blaze-Peregrine: You said earlier that you left it hidden on the ship when you left the ship, yar.
Varus: in the event he got surrounded and couldnt escape he may use the sock to explode him and everything around him
Varus: where was that 
frosty: i have been planning this for 3 weeks Varus
Igfig: you did say that, yeah
Varus: ok
Varus: then its not on me
Blaze-Peregrine: Back during the research discussion, yar.
Varus: ok
Igfig: also I don't think blaze of glory is what you want when these guys are kinda your allies
frosty: [21:30] <frosty_the_boatman> aight so when they leave the boat i take off with it to the fortress
Varus: yar
Blaze-Peregrine gives thumbs up.
frosty: ^3 weeks ago
Igfig: new music: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRSBXAZ1443B8E9105
Varus: so
Varus: if we left orrin behind
Varus: then
Varus: B)
Igfig: you probably didn't though
Varus: we'll have to actually ask erik about that next time
Varus: what he thinks of it
Varus: for now lets go to the mission
Igfig: yeah
Varus: maybe we just think its a little bit odd
frosty: he went with you the first time
Varus: but dotn want to miss our chance
Igfig: it's more likely that he'd be coming along to do backup if needed
Blaze-Peregrine: And probably would have left his armor on the ship again to avoid looking suspicious in the crowd.
Blaze-Peregrine: So oh dear.
Varus: or maybe in a backpack
Varus: cause if hes coming for backup hed want the armor
Varus: maybe he is wearing it but is hidden somewhere
Igfig: slight edit for the music: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRSBXAZ1443B8E9105&lg=1&thresh=26
Igfig: Hmm
Varus: yo i just cheked the song fuck you
Blaze-Peregrine: It is the same song, just tuned to loop it more to Igfig's specifications, yar.
Igfig: I suppose a paladin might be wearing armour in a ceremonial manner today
Varus: oh right he is a paladin
Varus: i thought he was a knight
Varus: in that case id expect the armor yeah
Blaze-Peregrine: Also true, but his armor has symbols of Waukeen, but I suppose the Silver Flame people don't have a problem with the others today, it is the others who have a problem with them.
Varus: maybe hes even undercover
Blaze-Peregrine: So yar.
Igfig: if he wore a symbol of the Flame instead of, uh, I forget the name of his god
Varus: WAUKEEN
Varus: GAWD IG
Igfig: not waukeen I 'm pretty sure, that's FR
Blaze-Peregrine: I was going to say oh it is Waukeen.
Blaze-Peregrine: Or, no it isn't.
Varus: he could just coverr his symbols
Blaze-Peregrine: Kol Korran.
Igfig: Kol Korran, aye
Igfig: however you want to do it, he's probably with you
Varus: so we unamously decide orrin is with us undercover in his armor
Igfig: yeah
Varus: ill need some kind of signal that sometimes gone wrong so i need to teleport
Varus: so lets assume i gave blaze a scroll of message
Blaze-Peregrine: Which I can't access while in bird form, but when I turn human again yar.
Varus: yeah
Varus: you can only use it once
Varus: so make it count
Varus: i look arou8nd from my position wondering where ben has gone
Varus: but i assume he's hiding the airship 
Varus: any other setup you guys think we should do?
Varus: blaze / frosty
Blaze-Peregrine: I am here.
Igfig: I'm just talking to frosty for a sec
Varus: ok
Blaze-Peregrine: I was just thinking how curious coincidences can be sometimes, cause just last night I was watching a group of people playing Numenara and one of their characters pulled the traitor move.
Blaze-Peregrine: It was really fun to watch.
Varus: it is fun
Varus: FRUSTRATING
Varus: but fun
Varus: and interesting 
Varus: man i just assumed that ben would keep with us until time for me to turn him into a god
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh man, more entertaining coincidence stuff, how you were mentioning after we finished the Morsten Manor stuff that you were thinking of encouraging the players in your game to pull more anti-other player stuff.
Varus: real life is weird sometimes
Blaze-Peregrine: After seeing how that stuff with Harry went.
Varus: like it just pulls tropes on us
Varus: foreshadowing
Varus: bullshit
Igfig: okay
Igfig: so you guys are at St. Valtros' Square
Igfig: and there's a huge crowd waiting for the Keeper to emerge
Igfig: I guess they've got a bishop out there warming up the crowd
Igfig: telling jokes, y'know
Varus: "haha so whats the deal with airship food amirite or amirite?"
Blaze-Peregrine: I'm picturing the guy who played Chaucer in A Knight's Tale.
Igfig: I haven't seen that
Varus: neither have i
Igfig: actually, hmm, gonna roll something
Igfig:  1d20
Fortuna: Igfig,  1d20: [16] = 16
Blaze-Peregrine: This is sad news.
Varus: thats ominous
Igfig: ok, anyway
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh hey, you rolled today's date, fun.
Igfig: Varus, where were you planning to have your lookout?
Varus: im not on lookout im literally just waiting for a message from peter
Varus: the spell message is a cantrip so even if he gets captured he should be able to read the scroll pretty fast before hes tied up
Blaze-Peregrine: And I'm a bird.
Igfig: well, where's your position?
Varus: on that picture you showed me it was sort of like a U shape
Igfig: yeah
Varus: with a tinier u of pillars inside
Varus: im outside the outside U
Varus: beyond the wall leaning against  it
Varus: peter knows my location
Igfig: right
Varus: away from the crowd
Varus: ive also summoned elementals and have them stationed hidden around me on lookout for someone sneaking up
Varus: i summoned......... 4
Igfig: so you can't see the balcony? Only Peter?
Igfig: er
Igfig: Blaze
Varus: well
Varus: how about one of my elementals is on top of the wall
Varus: so it can relay the info back to me
Varus: so it can see the balcony and whats going on
Igfig: what kind of elemental?
Varus: ill go with fire and i puffed some powder on them so they are silver and inconspicuous
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh darn, I was going to guess air elementals.
Varus: thank you for buying that powder blaze
Igfig: okay
Igfig:  1d20 perception for them
Fortuna: Igfig, perception for them: [20] = 20
Blaze-Peregrine: Dang.
Varus: WOOP WOOP
Igfig: whoa
Varus: I SEE ALL
Blaze-Peregrine: You got yourself some good elementals.
Varus: im proud of them
Igfig: well, your elementals do
Varus: ya
Igfig: Nobody's sneaking up on you... but one your elementals does point up at some of the buttresses of the main cathedral (which is a good deal bigger than St. Peter's Basilica), where some gargoyles sit in various states of pensive watch
Varus: good to know
Varus: i message that to peter
Blaze-Peregrine: Right, don't pester the statuary.
Igfig: As far as other potential threats go, there are two paladins up on the balcony, flanking the entrance
Varus: at the doorway where the girl will come out from?
Igfig: yeah
Varus: ok
Varus: would be nice to have orrin up there instead
Varus: complete infiltration
Igfig: some guards on the ground below the balcony, keeping the crowd from getting too close
Varus: easy stuff
Varus: its just a routine ceremony
Igfig: and more guards around the perimiter and entrance to the square
Varus: where should we say orrin is
Varus: maybe he is with some of the guards around the perimiter undercover
Igfig: yeah, probably
Varus: ok then
Varus: shall we get this
Igfig: also Varus, you'll be sad to hear this
Varus: oh no
Varus: :0!!!
Igfig: but Frosty got a natural 20 searching for the sock
Varus: DANG
Varus: okay
Igfig: total of 23
Varus: does that mean he found the pencil hole underneath
Varus: to open it properly
Varus: id assume so
Blaze-Peregrine: He got a 20, so probably.
Igfig: yeah, and also the trap
Igfig: he found it all
Varus: gotcha
Varus: ok
Varus: igfig the research notes will need to be dicyphered of course
Varus: no wizard worth their salt just writes in common
frosty: you already told me your notes
frosty: hehehehehe
Varus: while true itd be much easier for another wizard to have the notes right there
Varus: since id have dumbed down the sciences for you when i was telling you about what id learned
Varus: theyd need the numbers and stuff
Igfig: frosty isn't a mage at all though, he wouldn't be able to do the rituals
frosty: frosty aint care
Blaze-Peregrine: So yar, either he's just going to eat it, or he's going to use it to blow something up.
Blaze-Peregrine: Either way he's going to wreck some stuff with it.
Varus: i assumed he was going to get one of the warforged wizards or someone else to finish the research
Igfig: oh, that'd be clever
frosty: shhh spoliers
Varus: obvy
Varus: so for now lets get thiss #show on the #road
Igfig: yes let's
Igfig: just grabbing more appropriate music again
Varus: ok
Varus: religious ceremony espionage music
Blaze-Peregrine: Not a theme one encounters frequently.
Igfig: I'm thinking this might work? http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TREZJKD1433F811792
Varus: hmm
Blaze-Peregrine: I really need to get around to nabbing some of those albums, yar.
Varus: if we're going homestuck there are a few things that would work well
Varus: but sotww works i think
Igfig: anywhoa
Varus: especially if we are planning on going god tier
Igfig: The archbishop finishes the opening ceremonies
Varus: how much applause is there likely to be
Varus: while she is doing her thing
frosty quit.
frosty joined #pwot_dnd.
Igfig: uh, I don't think you applaud in church
Varus: i figured
Varus: continue
Igfig: she bows and returns inside
Igfig: all is silent for a moment
Igfig: then, quietly at first, an unseen choir begins to sing
Igfig: some sort of hymn, I don't know
Varus: ffx hymn
Igfig: it increases in volume and soaring reverence
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh wait I got this.
Varus: its just a short thing
Varus: no need
Varus: fortuna are you nervous?
Fortuna: Definitely.
Igfig: and the top of a small head of dark hair emerges
Varus: me too
Varus: wait a second to go blaze
Blaze-Peregrine: There is always need, yar.
Varus: so it doesnt seem like you were waiting
Varus: once shes on the balcony and stopped walking
Varus: fly down
Blaze-Peregrine: Well yar, I mean she has a whole speech to give presumably.
Igfig: walks forward, pauses for a second, then steps up onto a stool so she can see
Varus: aw thats cute
Varus: GO BLAZE
Igfig: uhh, trying to find a picture that isn't terrible
Varus: knock the stool out from under her
Blaze-Peregrine: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRCNTWK13BECEA2670&thresh=45
Blaze-Peregrine: Also this song isn't going to loop very long, so it works for short time.
Blaze-Peregrine: Also entertaining cause more Little Inferno.
Igfig: ...this is probably the best I'm going to find
Igfig: http://1d4chan.org/images/c/c6/Jaela_screencap.jpg
Varus: brokenlink
Varus: gyazo it
Igfig: grr
Igfig: http://gyazo.com/527c6c6e9719dbb3c8af0c1bd1f7076f
Varus: ok
Blaze-Peregrine: That is a tiny and adorable little girl.
Varus: thats more anime then i expected
Varus: but ok
Igfig: and that's not even her actually
Varus: we get the idea at least
Igfig: there are no pictures of her that aren't anime
Varus: blaze go do your thing
Blaze-Peregrine: She's only just stepped out, yar.
Igfig: you can gis her name, there's not much at all
Igfig: yeah
Varus: blaze
Varus: blaze do your thing
Blaze-Peregrine: She only just got out on the balcony still.
Varus: no shes on her stoll
Varus: stool
Varus: i doubt the stool is moving
Varus: igfig mentioned a few weeks ago that its not long
Varus: she just makes an appearance and waves and stuff
Blaze-Peregrine: No speech thing?  I would expect a speech maybe.
Igfig: she smiles, bows her head for a moment, and begins to address the crowd
Varus: do THE THING BLAZE
Blaze-Peregrine: Varus it is rude to interrupt small anime children.
Blaze-Peregrine: That is how you get anime protagonists to smack you.
Varus: then so be it but GO BLAZE
Varus: if i were there id push bird blaze off his perch
Igfig: "Fellow Purified of the Flame, happy Promisetide to all of you!"
Varus: there thats her speech
Varus: go blaze
Varus: just land next to her
Varus: politely wait for her to finish if you really care
Varus: and then hobble up land on her shoulder and talk to her
Igfig: "I'm so happy that you all could come today"
frosty: FLY BIRD
Varus: blaze you son of a bitch
Varus: even the traitor agrees
Blaze-Peregrine: Alright alright.
Varus: GOOD
Varus: dont be socially anxious now of all times blaze
Blaze-Peregrine: I fly off of my perch and start circling a bit first.
Igfig: "on this broadest of festival days"
Igfig: okay
Varus: and an archer shoots him down
Varus: GAME OVER
Igfig: people don't pay much attention to you, falcons are here all the time
Varus: man this is too tense 
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh man, I forgot to check how much health this form has.
Blaze-Peregrine: Whoooo, 1 hit point.
Varus: great
Varus: ok
Varus: so dont get hit
Varus: dont cause anything thatd make someone want to punch you
Varus: oh shit am i disguised in case i need to teleport in
Varus: so my face doesnt appear on a wanted paper
Varus: lets just say i covered my face with cloth
Igfig: "Because today, we honor not only the Flame, but all the other gods that make paradise something possible
Igfig: ."
Varus: go blaze
Varus: igfig didnt write an entire speech
Blaze-Peregrine: And that seems like a lovely note to land on.
Varus: tru
Varus: igfig how much of this DID you write
Igfig: I am making all of this up as I go
Blaze-Peregrine: So yar, now I'll land on the balcony and be properly birdy.
Varus: yeah
Varus: right beside her?
Blaze-Peregrine: Well, on the railing, not sure if right beside her.
Igfig: one of the paladins' eyes glance your way, and stay glanced
Varus: well shes up on the railing
Blaze-Peregrine: I'm thinking on the railing and I can hop over.
Varus: sure
Blaze-Peregrine: I glance at the paladin.
Varus: i dont like that paladin's eyes tho
Varus: NOOOO
Varus: dont
Varus: that will be suspicious
Blaze-Peregrine: I'm a bird, birds look at stuff all the time.
Varus: a bird has no reason to look at a dude looking at him though
Varus: especially if hes like 20 feet away
Igfig: "Because wasn't Tira Miron herself a servant of Dol Arrah before she brought the Flame into the world?"
Varus: blaze hop on up 
Varus: just do it quick
Blaze-Peregrine: He's still typing.
Varus: probably more speach
Varus: speech
Varus: not a peach
Igfig: (it's hard to write in Jaela's voice, she has to be a terribly wise leader but also an eleven-year-old girl)
Blaze-Peregrine: Or more paladin stuff.
Varus: ok
Varus: do the thing
Varus: dont waste any time
Varus: just hop up
Varus: say the thing
Varus: fly away
Blaze-Peregrine: Alright, I stretch my wings and give a good hop up next to her.
Varus: SAY IT
Varus: IGFIG IS TYPING
Varus: BEAT HIM TO IT
Igfig: The paladin that was watching you tightens his grip on his halberd
Blaze-Peregrine: LIke, do I just say the Lord of Blades is coming?  I suppose this isn't a premier time to give a lengthy exposition.
Varus: the good thing about this is it isnt an assassins creed game cause we'd be dead 4 times over by now
Varus: tell her that the lord of blades killed Karneth's king and is framing this place, and he is on his way here now to slaughter everyone while their attention is somewhere else
Igfig: Oh, also Blaze
Blaze-Peregrine: Si?
Igfig: Behind Jaela, a few metres back, is a weird fucking monster beast
Igfig: https://z4.enha.kr/http://pds20.egloos.com/pds/201010/17/19/c0035619_4cba0e0e7bbae.jpg
Varus: argh
Varus: gyazo it
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh.
Igfig: gah
Blaze-Peregrine: Picture worked for me when I clicked.
Blaze-Peregrine: That thing is indeed very freaky.
Blaze-Peregrine: I don't think that thing is natural.
Varus: oh there we go
Igfig: For Varus' benefit: 
Igfig: http://gyazo.com/64e21c9749f6e4207685b8bd7de06956
Varus: yeah thats def a thing
Igfig: oh ok
Varus: i popped it open in another tab
Varus: so say what i mentioned up there
Varus: see if she replies
Varus: if not get out of there
Igfig: It's gazing forward serenely; all of its attention is focused on Jaela
Varus: man i dont like this
Varus: its our only option though
Blaze-Peregrine: The paladins don't care about it?
Varus: maybe give her like our contact info or something
Igfig: nope
Varus: i assume its an extra guard
Varus: like it has special senses humans do not
Blaze-Peregrine: Okay, if the paladins aren't worried then she's fine.
Blaze-Peregrine: so yeah.
Blaze-Peregrine squawks.
Blaze-Peregrine: And then:
Varus: are the people happy that a symbolic bird has nested next to her
Igfig: Jaela is talking about the need for mutual understanding and respect
Varus: perfect time to say the thing
Blaze-Peregrine: "Keeper of Flame, the Lord of Blades slew your county's king, and plans to end the world of non-construct races."
Igfig: Uh
Igfig: are you sure you want to say that specifically
Varus: no no
Blaze-Peregrine: "He plans to use your souls to fuel his ascension."
Varus: tis isnt karneth
Varus: wait is this karneth
Blaze-Peregrine: Wha?  Oh.
Varus: no it isnt
Blaze-Peregrine: I thought this was the country that king was from.
Blaze-Peregrine: Whoopsies.
Igfig: Make a Wis check Blaze
Varus: well i mean
Varus: thats just a mistake from peter
Varus: i think blaze would know whats what
Blaze-Peregrine: 1d20+7
Fortuna: Blaze-Peregrine, 1d20+7: [11] = 18
Igfig: as it turns out, he does
Varus: good
Varus: so rephrase that shit
Blaze-Peregrine: yeah.
Varus: is she the keeper of the flame btw
Igfig: wait, +7? This wouldn't be wis-with-proficiency, just wis
Blaze-Peregrine: "Keeper of Flame, the Lord of Blades agents slew the King of Karneth, and so on and so forth.
Igfig: that's still 15 though so you're ok
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh, I have proficiency in wisdom saves so i thought that applied.
Igfig: nope, just saves
Varus: its not a save
Blaze-Peregrine: Since this was kind of a save.
Varus: just a check
Blaze-Peregrine: But alright.
Varus: haha
Varus: well it IS a save
Varus: savin our butts
Blaze-Peregrine: Sides the king part all I was going to say was good though right?
Igfig: Did you just start speaking in the middle, or did you wait for the end of a sentence?
Varus: mention that their floating fortress is on the way here RIGHT THIS SECOND
Igfig: Yeah that content is fine
Varus: wait for the end of a sentence id think
Igfig: okay
Varus: and blaze mention that so she actually takes action
Blaze-Peregrine: Probably the end of that sentence, yar.
Blaze-Peregrine: It'd be rude to interrupt.
Varus: also suspicious
Igfig: so she's taking a breath to start her next line, and then you speak and she coughs in surprise
Blaze-Peregrine: And assuming she heard me properly, then I really need to get out.
Blaze-Peregrine: Sounds like she heard me properly, I am out.
Varus: blaze
Varus: did you
Varus: mention
Varus: they are coming right now
Igfig: everybody stops and stares at you
Varus: oopsy theres probably a mic there
Varus: so everyone heard you
Igfig: well, not a mic
Varus: I CANT BELIEVE WE FORGOT ABOUT THAT
Varus: WE CHECKED EVERYTHING BUT NOT FOR MICROPHONE MAGIC
Igfig: her voice is magically amplified by a spell, yours isn't
Varus: oh ok
Blaze-Peregrine: Yeah, no mass crowd hysteria.
Varus: say that they are coming
Varus: and then olly
Blaze-Peregrine: Alright, so before I am out.
Varus: are my elementals relaying all this to me
Blaze-Peregrine: "The Lord of Blades comes."
Igfig: "What?" is all she says
Varus: say you must take action now or we're all doomed
Igfig: "What did you say, little bird?"
Varus: oh god
Varus: stay and talk to her
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh dear.
Varus: the paladins wont stop you if she doesnt tell them to
Varus: or she will stop them from attacking you
Varus: so just
Varus: give a little explanation
Igfig: She's taking it pretty well after her moment of surprise
Igfig: the paladins are turning to face you though
Varus: hurrrryyyy
Varus: this is too tense for waffle's wee lil heart
Igfig: halberds pointed at you, but not attacking
Igfig: the beast thing hasn't moved
Blaze-Peregrine: "The Lord of Blades who hates all races made of flesh, sent agents to kill the King of Karneth, and plans to use the war his death would ignite to fuel his ascension to godhood and to obliterate us all."
Varus: i wonder if she plays with toys
Varus: shes only 11
Varus: like imagine her playing with a doll house
Varus: thatd be silly
Blaze-Peregrine: "But beware for he does not act alone, a force manipulates him to its own ends, though I know not what they are."
Igfig: you can see,further back, a red-bearded man in cardinal's robes springing into action
Varus: that may be an enemy
Varus: i say its time to ollie outie
Blaze-Peregrine: and I think that is all the time we have for mystical falcon theater.
Varus: mystical falcon theater 3000
Igfig: "The Lord of Blades?"
Varus: just say an evil warforged and GET OUT
Varus: no you know what
Varus: out anyways
Varus: just go
Varus: shoo
Varus: git outa here bird
Blaze-Peregrine: Yar, I said he is a guy who hates all races made of flesh.
Varus: make like a broom is flapping at you
Igfig: "That's... that's terrible."
Varus: or like
Varus: say goodbye or something
Varus: "NOW I GOTTA GO BEFORE SOMEONE SHOOTS ME"
Varus: man i dont like how she said the lord of blades out loud
Varus: since she just said lord of blades to the entire assembly
Blaze-Peregrine: "Lead the world in unity, lest this threat snuff out the light of future paradise."
Varus: laaaaamee
Blaze-Peregrine: And now I fly off the railing.
Igfig: "Who are you? Really."
Varus: blaze is poetic
Igfig: "You can tell me."
Varus: hmmmm
Igfig: "Wait!"
Varus: what should we say
Varus: maybe itd be better if she didnt know
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh I know, for theatrics.
Varus: its up to you blaze
frosty: shhh Varus let Blaze-Peregrine do his bird thing
Blaze-Peregrine does a falcon cry that sounds like the word Blaze.
Varus: haaaahh
Blaze-Peregrine: Now I just have to not get hit while flying away.
Blaze-Peregrine: You don't happen to have feather fall prepared today?
Varus: no i do not
Igfig: She cocks her head at that, a strange look on her face, kind of a smile
Igfig: you think she understood, actually
Igfig: she is hella perceptive, it turns out
Igfig: however, the red-headed cardinal catches up to the balcony now
Varus: oh nooooo
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh, fun question:  Is he an elf or a human?
Varus: itd be a human 
Blaze-Peregrine: Probably.
Blaze-Peregrine: I just had the highly entertaining thought that what if he was my dad, but neither of us know it cause I was raised by those druids who found me in the woods cause something happened, probably involving my mother.
Blaze-Peregrine: That whole thought process being cause he has red hair.
Varus: thats silly
Varus: ur silly
Varus: fly away 
Blaze-Peregrine: Yar, that would be some silly levels of its a small world after all stuff.
Igfig: and... hmm, hold person wouldn't work on a bird
Igfig: Blade Barrier, then
Varus: oh golly
Blaze-Peregrine: Whoooooooooo oh crap.
Varus: are my elementals seeing this
Blaze-Peregrine: I have a feeling a lot of people are seeing this.
Igfig: whirling blades of force begin to coalesce out of the air
Varus: dont take that 1 damage
Blaze-Peregrine: Evasive maneuvers!  Dive dive dive.
Varus: DO A BARREL ROLL
Igfig: Dex save!
Igfig: Good thing you're a dextrous falcon
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh good, hawks actually have decent dexterity, yar.
Blaze-Peregrine: 1d20+3
Fortuna: Blaze-Peregrine, 1d20+3: [2] = 5
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh dear.
Varus: great
Varus: o
Varus: k
Blaze-Peregrine: Though that doesn't matter a whole lot anyways cause a successful one is just half-damage.
Blaze-Peregrine: This is going to hurt, a lot.
Varus: hm
Varus: do my elementals see this
Varus: i cant eleport in if i see him going down
Igfig: he's misjudged your distance slightly, you actually have a chance to get past before the blades appear entirely
Igfig: if you'd passed the save, you'd take no damage
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh, still, I totally failed that roll.
Blaze-Peregrine: Wait.
Blaze-Peregrine: I'm flying.
Blaze-Peregrine: Sounds like the wind is going to choose an opportune moment to gust.
Igfig: awright
Blaze-Peregrine: Guided by the Winds reroll ahoy!
Blaze-Peregrine: 1d20+3
Fortuna: Blaze-Peregrine, 1d20+3: [10] = 13
Blaze-Peregrine: Well it's better.
Igfig: it is... but it's not quite enough
Blaze-Peregrine: Yeah.
Igfig: ouch
Igfig: I'll say you still take half damage
Blaze-Peregrine: Like the wind blows, and it looks like I'm going to clear for a moment, but then the gust peters out and doesn't adjust me all the way.
Igfig: so 
Igfig:  3d10
Fortuna: Igfig,  3d10: [4, 9, 4] = 17
Varus: dangit wind
Varus: OW
Igfig: Or actually
Igfig: hmm, I was going to give you the choice of getting out but taking damage, or getting caught in the middle of the circle and taking less damage
Igfig: but with 1 hp, it doesn't make much difference
Igfig: so yeah, you take 17 damage
Igfig: which I guess turns you back into human form
Varus: welp
Blaze-Peregrine: Yup.
Varus: so
Varus: i guess i should teleport in before you get captured and i need to make a grand stupid escape huh
Blaze-Peregrine: I am suddenly a fiery haired half-elf falling from the sky.
Varus: how high
Igfig: shit, I wish there'd been some better movement-restricting powers on the cleric list
Igfig: why do clerics not get hold monster
Igfig:  1d4x10 feet
Blaze-Peregrine: *shrug*
Igfig: hmm
Igfig:  1d4*10
Fortuna: Igfig,  1d4*10: [3] = 30
Igfig:  30 feet up
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh joy.
Blaze-Peregrine: Wait, that seems kinda low, but I was probably going low so yar.
Varus: ok
Varus: so should i teleport
Varus: or do you think you can manage something
Varus: cause if i teleport in every wizard in the country is gunna be hunted down
Varus: and thats not very FOR THE GOOD OF US ALL
Blaze-Peregrine: So question:
Blaze-Peregrine: Do I have time for an action before I land?
Igfig: Yeah, I think so
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh, then yar we're totally fine still.
Blaze-Peregrine: Just the fact that I'm a person and not a bird was revealed.
Varus: surprise the talking bird wasnta  bird
Blaze-Peregrine: I know right?  Crazy.
Igfig: although maybe I should call for a check or save to take that action quickly enough?
Varus: id say so
Igfig: Not sure if Dex or Wis would be more appropriate to change quickly
Blaze-Peregrine: Sure.
Blaze-Peregrine: Well, in dungeon world you roll +wisdom to transform.
Igfig: let's say Wis then
Blaze-Peregrine: Plus the whole my natural form's dex is terrible, so yar.
Blaze-Peregrine: A save or just a check?
Igfig: hmm
Igfig: check I think
Blaze-Peregrine: 1d20+4
Fortuna: Blaze-Peregrine, 1d20+4: [9] = 13
Igfig: your arms brush the heads of the crowd below as they become wings
Varus: haaaah
Blaze-Peregrine: And I turn into a giant eagle this time, cause that's a lot healthier.
Varus: ur gunna smack into the ground
Igfig: you're too low to actually start flying again with any kind of control though
Blaze-Peregrine: Alright, so maybe a giant eagle wasn't the best choice.
Igfig: so you kind of land on some guy's head
Igfig: softly enough that neither of you takes damage, but he's knocked over
Varus: haha
Varus: FLY AWAY NOW
Varus: fly away now
Varus: fly awayyyyy
Varus: a pigeon would be better tbh
Varus: or like a 
Blaze-Peregrine: I give a quick apology and take off.
Varus: whats that thing
Varus: the tiny fast onem
Igfig: what's your speed as a bird?
Varus: that drinks flowers
Blaze-Peregrine: I was thinking more of a I don't want to get knocked out of my form again.
Varus: HUMMINGBIRD
Blaze-Peregrine: giant Eagle has a fly speed of 80 feet.
Varus: dang
Blaze-Peregrine: AKA I'm pretty dang fast.
Varus: sonic the giant eagl
Igfig: The cardinal might be able to get another spell off... let me check ranges
Blaze-Peregrine: All the more reason for the giant eagle.
Blaze-Peregrine: Still feel kinda bad for that guy I landed on though.
Varus: man ok i gotta pee but the bathrooms full so im gunna go to the one farther down the hall
Igfig: I think you're out of range for anything but Blade Barrier, and he's not going to cast that on you while you're down here, for obvious reasons
Blaze-Peregrine: Yeah, quite a few people sides me down here.
Blaze-Peregrine: Also the hawk form's speed was 60 feet actually, so I'm a little closer, yar.
Igfig: oh
Varus: never mind
Igfig: that changes things
Blaze-Peregrine: Yeah.
Varus: dangit
Blaze-Peregrine: Hawks aren't quite as fast as giant eagles.
Varus: let him cast blade barrier anyways
Varus: i DARE HIM
Igfig: He speaks a single word.
Igfig: "HALT."
Igfig: with the authority of a deity behind his command
Igfig: specifically, the Command spell
Igfig: Wis save
Varus: go blaze go!!
Blaze-Peregrine: 1d20+7
Fortuna: Blaze-Peregrine, 1d20+7: [18] = 25
Igfig: you flip him the bird, as it were
Varus: ohh maan
Blaze-Peregrine: That's cause I'm untamed and unbound, yar.
Varus: #cantbetamed
Varus: bang bang bang cash register noise
Varus: #cantstopwontstop
Blaze-Peregrine: So I suppose thta means I proceed to majestically wing away as fast as my rather large bird wings will carry me.
Varus: do NOT fly over to me
Blaze-Peregrine: I don't think I'm paying attention to who I do or do not fly over.
Varus: i mean like
Varus: dont come stand beside me like MAN LETS OUTA HERE SCOOB
Blaze-Peregrine: As long as it is away from the guy who made blades of force slash me in the face.
Blaze-Peregrine: Cue that Over the Smokestacks, Over the City song I linked last as the camera watches me fly away.
Varus: sure
Varus: i guess i walk to a pre arranged meeting place far far away
Igfig: I don't see that link, but ok
Varus: and remove my elementals
Blaze-Peregrine: I can link it again I think, yar.
Blaze-Peregrine: http://labs.echonest.com/Uploader/index.html?trid=TRCNTWK13BECEA2670&thresh=45
Blaze-Peregrine: Yup, still the same link.
Igfig: Okay, now the thing I have to do
Igfig: is figure out how long it'll take Frosty to intercept Chydris
Igfig: I may need your help with this
Varus: alright
Varus: so during this time
Varus: orrin varus and blaze all meet up at a spot
Varus: and sort of sit there like
Varus: where the heck is frosty
frosty: what does 15 add to 20 mph, how fast does chrydis go, how far are we apart
frosty: this is basic shit
Varus: ben youre a math major
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh man, this is one of those math problems with the two trainings traveling towards eachother leaving from two different points at different speeds, when do they meet?
frosty: yes
Igfig: yeah, but they're at angles
Blaze-Peregrine: Two trainings, my brain is doing good for me, yar.
Varus: ben can you just
Varus: do this for us
Igfig: Oh, hmm
frosty: nah im spouting inner dialogue right now
Varus: ok
Varus: lets see if we can do this
Igfig: It took you two and a half days to get here from the glass plateau? I thought it was more for some reason
Blaze-Peregrine: That does seem a little short.
Varus: so we need, the distance of the glass plateau to the city, how fast the fortress is moving, and how fast ben is moving
Igfig: I'm just looking at the log
Blaze-Peregrine: I'm guessing we based it off of ship speed and airships are pretty quick, yar.
Varus: no they arent
Varus: they go 20mph
Igfig: there are figures for airship speed, yeah
Igfig: and that's not slow by any means
Blaze-Peregrine: That's faster then a giant eagle can go.
Blaze-Peregrine: I'm guessing.
Varus: well true but when i think fast i think 60mph
Igfig: now where are the numbers for chydris again...
Blaze-Peregrine: Yar, but this is still more fantasyish, only thing faster then an airship would probably be the lightning rail, but that has a very specific path to it.
Igfig: Ten mph for argonth
Igfig: er
Igfig: chydris
Igfig: argonth was a different fortress
Igfig: but same design
Igfig: if they left right after you... well, they'd be here already
Igfig: but they didn't
Varus: so maybe they are like really super close
Varus: like a day away
Igfig: Frosty is flying faster than usual, too
Igfig: he spent an FP on it and everything
Varus: ok
Igfig: I think he might meet them as early as sometime tonight
Varus: ok
Igfig: like 4 AM maybe
Varus: that will def give us time to go like "man i think ben ditched us what a dick"
Varus: so we need to get a lil house to hide in and make plans 
Varus: probably in seedy town
Varus: home of seedy people and seedy things
Varus: ig
Varus: did i lose connection
Blaze-Peregrine: Nope.
Varus: ig is probably doing ben stuff
Blaze-Peregrine: Yar.
Blaze-Peregrine: And I am trying to find music for said stuff while not knowing what is actually happening, yar.
Blaze-Peregrine: On the bright side I found a song for a potential future scenario.
Blaze-Peregrine: Oh, also:
Blaze_Giant_Eagle: And then also:
frosty quit.
Blaze: And hurrah, that song loops rather well.
Igfig: Hey Varus, did you tell the others about the way into Chydris that you found?
Varus: uh
Blaze: I don't recall him mentioning it.
Varus: what way in
Varus: i dont even remember me finding one
Igfig: Following the crabs?
Varus: what
Varus: ob
Varus: ooohhhh
Varus: right 
Blaze: I'm guessing you found a way in when you followed the crab, yar, but I don't recall you telling us about it.
Varus: since it was our enemies id assume yes id have told everyone
Varus: probably later though
Igfig: it could have been in downtime
Varus: ya
Igfig: well, I just need to know if Frosty would know it
Varus: he would
Varus: didnt the crab just take me to the trash place though
Varus: igfig since we arent doing anything here
Varus: why not bring over ben's story
Igfig: I'll ask
Varus: i assume its essentially end of the session for us
Igfig: actually, how about you come into the other thread if you want to watch
Varus: sure
Igfig: #pwot_dnd2
Igfig quit.
