And through the magic of stagecraft, time is compressed and our heroes are synchronous once again.

Replying IC at the moment but just wanted to clarify something. Yrthraetha isn't a wizard of Windsong Tower, though Mithranix would know it. Sydil would know as soon as she sees her however. She's not affiliated with any mages circle, just the House Archmage for House Ealoeth.

Just now saw the edit.

FallenSon

The answer is going to be a vague 'yes', as you guys already know. Want to be more specific, or would someone else like to chime in?

I had a very lazy Halloween. No one typically comes around my place, so I just bought a lot of candy and have been steadily eating it on my own.

In game news, I've been kinda hoping there'd be a post for Ayorra before I posted with Sydil again, since Sydil had addressed her. Since it's been so long though, I'll try and post tomorrow.

Trick or treaters can't get into my apartment complex, sadly, so it was a quiet night. It's not like I'd have given out the only candy I have in my apartment (chocolate from Ghirardelli and Genevieve's) to any kids anyway, though. Guess I'll have to finish that myself.

I'd been waiting on Dane and Mythranix, as the Archmage addressed them last and I didn't want to take over their half of the investigation since Ayorra and Sydil have already made their contributions. If FallenSon or userpay don't post in the next day or so, I'll put up a post then.

It's been a few days already, so go ahead and post if you'd like to.

I've got a more manageable work schedule now with a different job and my goal is to update the IC at least 3/week. So that's what to expect on my end; anything similar from y'all would be fine. Certainly don't have time for 1/day, unfortunately.

It's been over a week since the last IC post. If you guys are busy with RL for the moment, that's fine but just drop me a note here so I know what's going on.

Ayorra

You get the sense that Yrthraetha is speaking the truth about her lack of knowledge of the mage and his selu'kiira, but also a hunch that she was trying to hide something. You note that she avoided talking about the other problems that Mithranix brought up, i.e. dark force, destabilize nation, other relics from the fall, etc.

It's been a few weeks since we've had posts from Vael, TheFallenSon and userpay. Are you all still interested in the game? Time for show of hands.

Well, first I think we should establish what the other two party members are up to. FallenSon hasn't been on in a few days so I don't know if he's still here, and userpay hasn't been on in about two weeks because he's busy with other stuff. I'd be fine with continuing with just Sydil and Ayorra, but what we do next will depend on whether we have four or just two PCs.

You want to send FallenSon a PM and see what's up with him?

I sent him a PM on the 14th but he hasn't been online since the 12th. We'll move forward with Dane & Mirhranix staying in the city to do more personal investigations while you two go after the selu'kiira. I'm assuming you will teleport to the village in Cormyr. How's that sound?

I suppose that will work for now, though the absence of meat shields to take the hits for us makes me mildly nervous.

"Meat shields? Who needs meat shields? What's the worst that could possibly happen?"

You know, looking at Sydil's spells and her items, I'm really not sure what I was thinking. A lot of her spells make her items really quite redundant.

I'll have a post up shortly.

Oh! Derp, I completely forgot to post that part. I feel silly.

Sydil is using her Summon Monster VII to summon an Invisible Stalker.

That's fine, it wouldn't change what it reports as it's still essentially an air elemental. What it finds unusual might be different than from what a humanoid deems unusual.

I suppose this will be the litmus test for Recharge Magic. One might want to invest in Rings of Counter-Spelling: Reciprocal Gyre.

Nothing responds to either of your spellcastings. The village is yours to explore.

That's what the battlemagic perception is for. I'm tempted to layer on a few more as we go along in case we get ambushed by multiple casters, but I think I'll wait and see what happens before I get really paranoid.

Since Vael hasn't posted I guess Ayorra will take the obvious next step of checking out the smithy, and I've edited my last post accordingly.

Working on a IC post now. I'll try and get it posted before bed.

Edit: I've also reviewed the spells each of you has cast and Starmantle has earned an instant ban. Sorry Dice, there's no way that spell is balanced.
