Ember gets 10gp from Zandar and the clear to take care of Petey.And tries to gage the issue if he does or doesn’t like the Red Brand Ruffian…
They are laughing. Zandar is enjoying this oh booooy. They LOVE that we took out the bear. He calls them “Red Dressed Vermin”.
We slow cook them--alive. We joke a lot about killing people and how we love our horrible monstrous ways. Dunal is so lucky he isn’t with them.
The party talks of bringing back trinkets for Tristan. Ember mentions getting books. He wants us to get books for Tristan.
Time for Peeeeetyyyyy… oh man of false goods.
Grannie is cheeky waves and winks to the guards who are escorting them. Ember locks the door as Grannie and Petey talk. Petey hides his sack of coins under his fatty folds.
Grannie nat 20’s against Petey with a eldritch blast, making him fall to his knees.
Ember jumps behind the fat lad and cast burning hands and punch down his spine breaking it in fragments. 21 to hit and nat 20. WITH MAX DAMAGE. She pulled out his spine XD. And placed it on a platter.
42dmg.
The Beggar king’s people are like dear god--the other is like I am kinda into it. As they watch the man get beheaded.
Ember and Anika investigate as BK’s people are getting things set up.
There are dogs, bobcats, and they are malnourished. THere is also a large brass cage with the peacock like bird in it.
Grannie tells them about the gold being hidden on his person. And asks about the animals. Grannie tries to introduce herself to the bobcats Ember assists. They sniff her hands and give them a lick.
One of the bobcats is guarding the other. The bigger one is guardian mode.
The ladies try to make friends with the bobcats. We feed and hydrate the bobcats. We get them collars and pick up a few other odds and ends.
Kenji mailed his mom, Dunal did similarly. Though Kenji went back to the ship.
Dunal reaches out to his god. Hoping to find some good, the party is similar to the Orcs being so brutal. Dunal doesn’t really agree to this. There’s a line the party is crossing.
In the silence of Dunal’s prayer. He gets questions as an answer. He gets reassurance and thoughts to ponder upon. “...you are in my eyes good.”
Asha and Grimm are playing “chase”. Kenji looks and then lets them do as they do. Chillin waiting for the party.
Ember checks out Vikta’s change of outfit and appearance. Flirting with Vikta, calling the pirate hat becoming. Vikta is the subject changer of a lifetime, as she’s flustered as is Ember and asks about the bobcats' names. Male bobcat Alvar, Female bobcat Ziva
Ember remarks that Vikta would have made a good druid, she jokes she might have in another life. But she likes burning things too much.
The party is quite enamored of the Gres and Anya. Asha and grimm were having a fight… Ember stepped in. Dunal is “safe” for Asha.
Vikta thanks Leo for the stone.
We visit Gres and Anya. XD
Gres is shocked about grannie. Vikta introduces herself as “Vik”, Grannie’s grandchild. “Grannie” has a reputation of “getting around” and the lot of her offspring and grandkids travel.
A mastiff jumps up to Ember. Anya flirts with Ember a little. Cynder is starting to come out at the challenge of a fight or flirt?
Cynder goes for a fiiiight.
Gres’ team is going to care of the ship.
Cynder loses round 1 with Anya.
Cynder wins round 2 with Anya.
Cynder wins round 3 with Anya!
Cynder WINS!!!
Anya lands with a plume of dust behind Cynder.
“Don’t you look pretty on the bottom.” Cynder says down to Anya. The Flirts are on XD dear lord these two lmao.
Gres tells Anya to give her 25 push ups. Ember sits on Anya’s back, and then Gres joins as Ember flirts with the two women. 5 more push ups and Anya fails to hold them all up. Anya gets Ember a drink--flirting all the while DEAR LORD. Ember shares her backstory with Anya.
Dear lord--she shows off her hip where there are gashes. They are sabertooth scars.
A contract is made up for the Ship. The contract is siiiiigned.
The party relays the details of the Bear and Red Band Ruffians.
Ember gives Anya her bear pelt. o.O is that a courting gift we should be aware of??? Lmao
Raladar district
We hear the tale of a Anya and her “magic” belt.
We share the tale of Petey.
We head back to the ship to show the people how to deal with Chewy.
The animals greet us and love us--in their own ways.
Vikta winks at the man, after handing him a sheet of inventory. Then as she turns away notes--she’s not grannie… awkward. The team head back to the Vestani. They are doing quality checks.
There are places on the wagons for us to sit or we could buy our own but we opt to spread throughout the group.
Vikta and Ember walk
Kenji sits up front with Stanamere
Dunal walk
Yozsu walk
We head out and make it outta the city and into the wastes of Credo. They announce to us that we’ll be going north on a trade way route. Things seem uneventful at first.
1 day ½ pass.
Time that has passed: 5 days, 1 week
While in the forest we see albino stag running round, random villagers.
It comes to nightfall once again. The bobcats find the land to be familiar and take off into the night.
Leo comes over and is quite pleased the cats have left. He fakes out leaving Ember. Lol
Leo finally notices Coalette and leaves Ember instantly. XD Ember wants to give Coalette to Vikta for a while.
Vikta is like, hi kitty.
The kitten is on her head. XD lmao
