They’re filling out paperwork. Mino: “why is high alert”. It’s just a little extra security due to recent events in the city. Nergil: what events bc we live here now? “you’re just probationary, so can’t disclose, although you will probably hear about it.” Mino: ice lizards? “I don’t…?” M: we could help? “we have it all in hand” [yorn does procurements]
Artificers in the hall of enchant/transmut; they get their “permission slips”, temporary guild cards. Quill: symol? “doesn’t know anyone by that name”, but corrin sees a surprising bit of movement at the syllable “sy”. Q: “planar instability?” “most are aware; haven’t looked into it, aware of it, can’t really get out to check on it” Raen: grad student doing work? “my specialty is conjuring entities not transportation, so none of my students are working on anything like that. I can use teleport magics” quill gets the sigil sequence for the reception room in the main guildhall. Quill also sees as Yorn is flipping through the book and sees spending. “if you want a spell, an additional financial contribution” sending. “150 gold, 3 hours” quill chuckles: not joking, just wellpracticed in scribing spells. “if you help me copy some stuff, I’ll contribute to gold cost” quill will stay behind while they go off
Mino: when we asked about symol, didn’t catch anything? C: the tiniest bit. [chatter I missed, they want to ask around?] Grana the artificer [halfling, braided hair, expert carpenter, prone to predictions of doom, friendly and strong, absentminded, loyal to guild]. (6 garage bays out back). Welding something, turns it off. Welcomes N to the guild, high fives him. M: weird shit, need to do more than regular cutting. She clears off a pauldron or tasset off a table. “I’m Grana” gives corrin a once over, tries to redirect the conversation to raen. Raen says “Hi” in hobbit, “the tall knows our language, so great!” corrin: you know halfling???? Grana: “uh, this is awkward, did you not know?” switch back to common.
To mino: upgraded recently? M: yes. I had this axe for a long time, from salty jim a dwarf, assumed it was dwarven. “good make, well crafted, nothing particularly special about it.” M: we’re dealing with extraplanar stuff and I need better fighting. “probably… a few days, it would require remaking the whole thing” M: shows the moon sword, this is already magic, it’s more practical? Can we make this better? “It’s already magic, so yes, that’s easier. Don’t have components on hand for +1, 3 days if you do the fetch quest on your own, a week if the guild does it” what do they need?
- 4 oz powdered moonstone
- 8 oz clarified oil of royal belladonna
- At least 8 oz of galena
M & R trying to wingman: “bow?” corrin shows bow. “have you tried attuning to it?” R: would you uh, need help with that? “no, it’s uh, something you would do on your own” grana’s embarrassed. N: heard of symol? “no, should I have?” r: fantasy Neosporin? “one colleague is an alchemist, if it’s an easy recipe can leave it, will be back tomorrow?” M: lockdown? “yeah, they’re just worried about something. Not that big a deal, they’ll relax in like a week.”
C wakes up. M is licking a rock. N: sparks in his face. C: talking to a god is wild. M: checks the book. Draefendi and yeenoghu, her mother and sister, C: so here’s the summary, & points out that they’ve met nidizzar. Mino: 3 guys???? Nergil anyone from you???
Go back into yorn’s office; teases mino, quill is outraged. M: where to get these materials? “cauls, nichell, maerquel” M: if you need help… Y: “one would hope a guild of mages would be able to handle things. But, if something happens, we’ll draw on all of our resources” and he looks at quill. When they say goodbye, yorn says goodbye in infernal (very formal, “may you gain all the souls you want”) but nergil corrects him “I hope you lose your souls, fuckboy”.
M: shopping trip? Could hit 11, or just go home. M: I think something is going on in this town that we don’t know about. Q: didn’t learn anything new during his work. M: they seem on lockdown because of a city issue, not a guild issue “I thought something was loose in the guild or something.” M: again, what are your siblings doing here?” corrin: has siblings.
Raen while walking: hears animals. No one else really hears. they go over. Party: what the fuck? The spider moves toward them. Mino moves first. Mino approaches the boar with rations in his hand (animal handling 15). Corrin speaks with animals: “what’s going on I can help you!” they don’t answer, corrin assumes maybe they’re fey, ro pounces and kills the spider and it dissolves. Xayah got mad “what you don’t like animals? We’re bringing nature back to the city!”, corrin says “but they’re fey and fake” and she gets madder. “then you deserve what you get!” nergil gets ready to eldritch blast xayah if any of the animals attack his friends. Quill readies scorching ray if she does something more threatening. Rakan uses resistance on xayah. Qull realizes this is conjuration magic like conjura nimals but not quite right? Xayah dodges. Raen tries to sneak by the scorpion but it noices and attacks, which makes trigger happy nergil shoot; both hit xayah, and quill scorching rays the scorpion. Raen gets away with almost nod amage but the nearby giant rat notices. Raen puts on his invisibility ring. The goat hits the commoner, the giant boar tusks mino, and the tortoise comes over and bites mino. Corrin tries to hit the scorpion as it rushes past to attack quill, who shields the attacks but one crits. Commoner has 1 death save success.
