You have just entered room "HAHAHAHAHA I WIN."

Dark Japheth has entered the room.

Dark Japheth: omg hi all

Dark Japheth: Funny story about my life

Dark Japheth: my fourth wall was broken today.

Dark Japheth: Now I must kill myself....

Dark Japheth: WITH GAME!!!!!

AndrewRogue: You have a fourth wall?

Dark Japheth: Extra exclamation points added for emphasis!

Sarcazmo47: There are worse ways to go, I think.

Dark Japheth: Like... playing that funky music till you die.

Sarcazmo47: I killed Gorth's fourth wall.

AndrewRogue: You did?

Sarcazmo47: *repeats chat name*

Dark Japheth: Yes, you did.

Dark Japheth: By the way

Dark Japheth: Your voice is entirely alike to my mental vision of how you are.

AndrewRogue: And I failed too? ;_;

Sarcazmo47: Who, me?

Dark Japheth: Yes.

Dark Japheth: Andrew was opposite.

AndrewRogue: Yeah. He expects me to sound like a girl.

Dark Japheth: His voice isn't light and feminine.

Sarcazmo47: Everyone expects your voice to sound like a girl.

AndrewRogue: I'd ask why, but I'd assume it has something to do with the concept that I equate to Aria.

AndrewRogue: DESPITE the fact that Gorth knows two of my other characters.

Dark Japheth: Who did you play when I met you?

Dark Japheth: :P

Sarcazmo47: My own voice is frankly too high-pitched for my own liking, but I have a girlfriend that beats her wife, so it's all good.

Dark Japheth: She's a keeper, dude.

Dark Japheth: And nah, your voice is fine.

AndrewRogue: ...actually, I played in Beth's game when you first met me Gorth.

AndrewRogue: <_<

Sarcazmo47: Anyway, where the fuck were we with game?

Sarcazmo47: RIGHT!

Sarcazmo47: I was blowing our wad!

Dark Japheth: ...Thats true

Dark Japheth: But in Beth's game

Sarcazmo47: Bladelings, by the way, are like tieflings only they have razor-sharp skin that gives them NA, and they can explode out a cloud of razors once per day, plus some other little stuff.

Dark Japheth: you were QUIET

Dark Japheth: Hmm. That sounds like an EXCELLENT demon to add to the first level of hell.

Sarcazmo47: They're probably in the Manual Of The Planes or something.

Sarcazmo47: LA of like +1.

AndrewRogue: Good point... yeah... somehow you did get used to me as Aria. Go figure. And yes, bladelings are neat.

Dark Japheth: We've got approximately three hours before I must leave.

Dark Japheth: On a jet plane.

Sarcazmo47: Don't you start.

Sarcazmo47: Okay!

Sarcazmo47: Where is the largest shipyard in on the continent?

Sarcazmo47: Thanks, voice in my head!

Sarcazmo47: That's cool.

Sarcazmo47: OH!

Sarcazmo47: RIGHT!

Sarcazmo47: Psions.

Sarcazmo47: I want to hire psions.

AndrewRogue: Oh yes.

AndrewRogue: We should get some.

Sarcazmo47: And lump them in with the mages, working on memory research in addition to castle maintenance

Dark Japheth: How many psions?

Sarcazmo47: And we probably need to RP this a little bit, because I need to ask about shipyards.

Dark Japheth: Alright.

Dark Japheth: The Crystal Coffer is the name of the school, although mostly unofficial and mostly on a Teacher-Student basis, one on one, at the moment.

Dark Japheth: Like... Knight and Padawan, or Master and Knight. >.>

Dark Japheth: Anyway

Sarcazmo47: It probably takes a while to get to Sithicus.

Dark Japheth: You can always go to the home of Jarek, or to the bar where you will likely find a guy there.

Dark Japheth: It will take about three weeks.

Dark Japheth: Two if you take the shortcut through Asgard.

Sarcazmo47: Nothing so mundane.

Sarcazmo47: And we go around Asgard.

Dark Japheth: Alright.

Sarcazmo47: No, when we get there, Skocion uses his rod to create a palatial tent and invites the entire city over for a party.

Dark Japheth: ...Seriously? Badass.

Sarcazmo47: Yes.

Sarcazmo47: It's the perfect opportunity to mingle, get to know people, and mention his desire to sposnor independant researchers.

AndrewRogue: Whee.

Sarcazmo47: So, yes, when Jarek comes over, Skocion greets him warmly, and presumeably there is much eating and partying.

Dark Japheth: Care to describe the tent?

Sarcazmo47: About a hundred feet tall.

Sarcazmo47: Embroidered and jeweled.

Chromeus18 has entered the room.

AndrewRogue: *will simply laze about and harp at said party*

Sarcazmo47: Tables inside and out, covered in platters of steaming foods of all kinds.

Chromeus18: do wha?

Sarcazmo47: Gaming grounds, and many places to sit.

Dark Japheth: THe party is headed off to Sithicus. Skocion wants to hang out with Psions and get some to head to Grym.

Sarcazmo47: Yep.

Sarcazmo47: He also wants information on shipyards in the region, either current or ancient.

Dark Japheth: Jarek will do this all in RP.

Dark Japheth: Yes, I am using a purple font. Purple = psion, omg yes.

Chromeus18: *puts on Krist suit*

Chromeus18: (Black on purple is pain)

Sarcazmo47: White on purple, perhaps?

Dark Japheth: This better?

Sarcazmo47: Much.

Dark Japheth: Yellow on purple is even more eccentric.

Chromeus18: yes

Dark Japheth: Anywho.

Dark Japheth: Jarek is a tall man, with a shaved head, clothed in purple and yellow clothing. In Greyhawk, he'd almost be dressed as a cleric of Boccob.

Sarcazmo47: So, Skocion mingles for a while, after greeting Jarek, than eventually strays back after the party has been going for a while.

Dark Japheth: An Eye is tattooed on his forehead, and eye tattoos pierce his palms. And he wears an amulet of an eye.

Sarcazmo47: And brings a pair of drinks with him.

Dark Japheth: His own eyes are a bright violet color, quite unnaturally.

Dark Japheth: He smiles. "Good old Duke Skocion."

AndrewRogue: (So... he likes eyes)

Dark Japheth: Its a psion thing.

Sarcazmo47: "Are you enjoying the party?" He smiles, and offers the man one of the drinks.

Dark Japheth: He takes it. "Quite a bit. I do enjoy it." He grins. "Thirty platinum a week, two platinum for each student."

Sarcazmo47: Skocion nods. "How are they?"

Sarcazmo47: "The students?"

AndrewRogue: (Coming from Skoc... Shut up PF)

Dark Japheth: He nods thoughtfully. "Fairly decent, if I do say so myself."

Sarcazmo47: Skocion nods. "But they're not you."

Sarcazmo47: Skocion gestures for them to walk, and the meander through the party as they talk.

Dark Japheth: He laughs. "No. And none such as me has ever graced the flower, save perhaps the originator of the art."

Sarcazmo47: "Why Sithicus? It's so.....cold."

Dark Japheth: They walk, and he gestures to a few people. "This is Jennifer. She's only fifteen, but she's working on using her own powers of Psychometabolism to improve her acting."

Dark Japheth: At that, he smiles. "Psychic power. This is the place where all the veins meet."

Sarcazmo47: Skocion takes her hand and kisses it politely.

Sarcazmo47: And, yes, lays on hands.

Dark Japheth: ...Why? As soon as she is pointed out to you, you recognize her.

AndrewRogue: (An lo, he loses Paladin-hood the way most do... taking Lay on Hands too literally.)

Sarcazmo47: He does?

Dark Japheth: Think.

Sarcazmo47: *thinks*

Dark Japheth: Jarek is laughing. Jennifer herself smiles, and says "Skocion? I didn't know you were a noble."

AndrewRogue: (If she was naked on your bed would it help?)

Dark Japheth: (girl = bold)

Sarcazmo47: Well.

Dark Japheth: "How have you been?"

Sarcazmo47: "Quite well." He grins and his teeth sparkle. "Yourself?"

Dark Japheth: "Wonderful." She smiles. And then to Jarek, she says- "Alright." And she begins to walk off.

Dark Japheth: Jarek only smiles.

Sarcazmo47: Skocion blinks, then looks at Jarek, then grins again. "Warning them about me, old man?"

Dark Japheth: "No. Not at all, Duke."

Dark Japheth: "However, she's neglecting her homework. I don't approve."

Sarcazmo47: Skocion shrugs. "I see."

Sarcazmo47: And they keep walking.

Sarcazmo47: "Jarek...I want your help.

Dark Japheth: "I know."

Sarcazmo47: "No. I want your help."

Dark Japheth: "You don't just want it, you Need it. Without me, you think and fear you might fail."

Dark Japheth: "I already told you. Thirty platinum a week."

Dark Japheth: He smiles.

Sarcazmo47: Skocion shakes his head. "How much do you know about me already?"

Dark Japheth: He shakes his head. "Not from me, Azoth." He looks eye to eye with you.

Sarcazmo47: Skocion buzzes.

Sarcazmo47: "You're not going to help me at all, are you?"

Dark Japheth: "I told you. Thirty platinum a week for my services. But I can't restore or give you what you've lost, and if I told you what I know, I would be speaking for hours, and would do nothing but damage your mind."

Dark Japheth: "A mind is a terrible thing to waste."

Sarcazmo47: Skocion sighs. "Fine. Thirty a week. Plus a laboratory in my castle."

Dark Japheth: "I know you've got it."

Sarcazmo47: "You know a lot."

Sarcazmo47: "So riddle me this."

Sarcazmo47: "Where in Sithicus do you go to build a boat?"

Dark Japheth: "Nowhere, anymore. And I can't even find the location. The poisoned tower clogs our minds when we attempt to learn anything about this place."

Dark Japheth: "But if you read a few of the texts, it would have been north. Past the tower. But it needed to be staffed to build a boat. You'd be better off in Rivas Kul."

Sarcazmo47: "Better off....."

Chromeus18: (we're all here, right?)

Sarcazmo47: Skocion ponders.

Sarcazmo47: "Could you get a shipyard crew through the poisoned lands? You and your students?"

Dark Japheth: (Yes)

Dark Japheth: "I can take five students. And I will bring only thirty. I would prefer humans, but I suppose your ogres and trolls will have to do."

Dark Japheth: "Come back in five weeks, and bring the payment we agreed upon."

Dark Japheth: He shakes his head, laughing. "Sorry. Bring the payment we *will* agree upon, which is a book on Lord Lioncourt located in your Castle."

Sarcazmo47: Skocion sighs. "You're a terrible negotiator, you know. You're supposed to make the other fellow feel like he's won."

Chromeus18: Was Jennifer a purty girl?

Dark Japheth: "My initial asking price was to be that you assaulted Tiyrael for me, in exchange for removing the taint from the land. You will disagree, and I will instead ask for a book about my hero."

Dark Japheth: (Jennifer was.)

Dark Japheth: (She's also the fifteen year old Skoc banged while he was doin the actor thing)

Dark Japheth: "I'm not too terrible, I don't think." He smiles.

Sarcazmo47: Skocion stares at him for a while with a semi-disgusted look on his face.

Chromeus18: Can Krist follow her wherever she went? :P

Dark Japheth: Yes.

Chromeus18: *Does so*

Dark Japheth: She went to a quiet area of the party, and is currently writing down things on a parchment.

Dark Japheth: "Hey. Krist, right?" SHe smiles.

Chromeus18: "That is my name."

Chromeus18: His throat thrusts out.

Dark Japheth: "You were with Skocion at the play. Hi. My name is Jennifer." She curtseys a little. "How can I help you?"

Chromeus18: "I would ask a small request of you." Krist pulls out a block of clay. "I would like to sculpt your likeness as a keepsake. May I?"

Dark Japheth: SHe smiles. "You are so sweet." She ponders. "Any particular pose?"

Chromeus18: "Whatever is your preference." Krist bows his head.

Dark Japheth: She sits there, cute as a button, hands on her knees with crossed legs, and has a really cute smile.

AndrewRogue: (Awwww... <3)

Dark Japheth: Jarek smiles. "Its ok, Duke. Now. I can't read parts of it. But what exactly is it you want me to research?"

Chromeus18: Krist ponders. And sculpts.

*OnlineHost*: Chromeus18 rolled 1 20-sided die: 8

Chromeus18: 19

Dark Japheth: Nice sculpture.

Chromeus18: Krist inscribed her name on the bottom, in Aquan.

Chromeus18: (human girl)?

Dark Japheth: Yes.

Chromeus18: "I thank you for your time." Krist bows again.

Sarcazmo47: Skocion completes his buisness with Jarek.

AndrewRogue: *doesn't... really do much. Out of his element and all. Plays music.*

*OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 20-sided die: 20

Chromeus18: Krist returns.

AndrewRogue: Its fucking awesome.

Sarcazmo47: And they hit the castle back for a while.

Sarcazmo47: Skocion winds up hiring a huge crew of shipwrights, smiths, and laborers.

Sarcazmo47: The mages get a teleportation circle set up to Sithicus.

AndrewRogue: (What a wasted 20 <_<)

Sarcazmo47: Yep.

AndrewRogue: (I'm getting those a lot lately.)

Sarcazmo47: And so, the psions use their powers to guide us and start getting laborers, shipwrights, and mages past the poisoned tower that is the ruins of the palace of frost and take us to....?

Dark Japheth: To the abandoned shipyard, of course.

Sarcazmo47: Is it just any old shipyard?

Dark Japheth: I can describe it no further than a dock, with many tools left abandoned. There are sigils to forgotten gods carved all over...

Dark Japheth: And a lot of it is clearly designed for use by psions- and someone who would attach iron to the sides of a ship.

Sarcazmo47: How convenient.

Sarcazmo47: We mean to do both.

Chromeus18: "How long will.. this take, Skocion?"

Sarcazmo47: We get the mages up here to set up another teleportation circle, and then personnel and materials start coming through en masse.

Sarcazmo47: "How long?"

Sarcazmo47: He consults his head shipwrights!

Chromeus18: Krist is practically a slug in the arctic environment.

Dark Japheth: ...Four weeks and six days, roughly.

Sarcazmo47: For a ship as big as Skocion wants?

Sarcazmo47: With the cannons, the ironsides, and everything?

Sarcazmo47: And the psionic help and enhancements?

Sarcazmo47: And the various other little magical knicknacks?

Sarcazmo47: And the cold-spewing dragon-shaped bowsprit?

Sarcazmo47: And, also importantly, what's the final cost?

Dark Japheth: Final cost is 15,000 platinum. Only 10,000 without the cold spewing dragon.

Dark Japheth: And yes, only five weeks. Jarek predicted you'd bring people en masse.

Sarcazmo47: Cause he's cool like that.

Sarcazmo47: Hmm.

Sarcazmo47: 50k for the bowsprit, eh.

Sarcazmo47: Hmm.

Sarcazmo47: How about for a Flag Of Despair?

Sarcazmo47: The Flag Of Grim Revenge.

Sarcazmo47: Something like that.

Dark Japheth: Thats going to be 20k GP.

Sarcazmo47: I have no idea what it does.

Sarcazmo47: But awsome!

Sarcazmo47: That instead of the bowsprit.

Dark Japheth: It projects a fear effect on whoever you are fighting, and increases the morale of your troops.

Dark Japheth: Think Battle Meditation.

Sarcazmo47: We'll take it.

Sarcazmo47: Caching!

AndrewRogue: Heh.

Sarcazmo47: Which takes Skocion down to...a mere 3000 PP.

Sarcazmo47: Then the last trick is to sail it with a skeleton crew and a portion of the Malleus Iniquus to the seediest port in the world - i.e. Rivas Kul - and find a crew and captain worthy of this monstrosity.

Dark Japheth: Cartography checks from anyone who wants to help out.

*OnlineHost*: Sarcazmo47 rolled 1 20-sided die: 2

Sarcazmo47: I'm no help.

AndrewRogue: Cartography is?

Dark Japheth: Knowledge.

Dark Japheth: Int.

AndrewRogue: Eh. Flat int.

*OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 20-sided die: 6

AndrewRogue: I'm useless.

Sarcazmo47: Krist!

*OnlineHost*: Chromeus18 rolled 1 20-sided die: 10

Chromeus18: 14

Chromeus18: do I help? :P

Dark Japheth: You are the only guide.

Dark Japheth: The others can't help you.

Sarcazmo47: Heh.

Dark Japheth: You manage to get there, but it will take you two months.

Sarcazmo47: Okay.

Chromeus18: damn.. no taking 10?

AndrewRogue: *counts* How close is it coming to Queklain complaining about us not doing his job.

Chromeus18: Skocion would be better with that.

Dark Japheth: You have three months. Roughly.

Sarcazmo47: That's nice.

AndrewRogue: Hmm... remind me to be elsewhere in 3 months.

Sarcazmo47: So. We finally get there.

Sarcazmo47: Let thre crew recruitment begin!

Dark Japheth: What are you looking for in a crew?

Sarcazmo47: Mean. Strong. Competent. Reliable.

Dark Japheth: Species?

Chromeus18: Cold. Fucked up. Mean. Relentless.

Sarcazmo47: Tiefling. High Trolls, again. Aquatic races, if they're intrested. Half-elementals.

Dark Japheth: Tieflings are aplenty in the town. Aquatic guys ain't here, nor are half-elementals- not in significant numbers, anyway. High trolls are aplenty.

Sarcazmo47: Gunner, soldiers, sailors, officers.

Sarcazmo47: And, of course, Captain.

Chromeus18: (head to Toa Kuo for aquatic folk :P)

Dark Japheth: :P

Sarcazmo47: Skocion will actually ask Krist where he might find more of his kind.

Chromeus18: (Krist will actually be able to use an ability he has!)

Chromeus18: (know: history?)

Dark Japheth: There are only 10 Kuo-Toa who are willing to staff a ship. And they are pricey- most are monks.

Sarcazmo47: That's okay.

Dark Japheth: About 20 platinum a month upkeep.

Sarcazmo47: Awsome.

Dark Japheth: ...and I have to go

Dark Japheth: stupid parents, stupid new york trip.

Sarcazmo47: Okie dokie.

Dark Japheth: THink carefully. Be wary.

Chromeus18: we find other KuoToans?

Sarcazmo47: Catch ya in a couplea weeks, boss.

Dark Japheth: And Kirk? Andrew? It was fun talking to y'all, and Kirk- do not worry. What looks like a plot hole isn't.

Dark Japheth: :P

AndrewRogue: Adios man. Call me if you get bored <_<

Chromeus18: be good gorth.

Sarcazmo47: *nod*

Dark Japheth: I might be online once in a while while there, but don't count on it.

Dark Japheth: I will. lates homies.

AndrewRogue: Have fun

Dark Japheth: I planned on it.

Dark Japheth: And I like the purple and yellow, so it stays.

Sarcazmo47: HAH

Chromeus18: stay away from puerto rican hookers.

Chromeus18: or men that look like vin diesel.

Dark Japheth: And Zidane!

Dark Japheth has left the room.

Chromeus18: just a note: Krist does NOT know where to find Kuo-Toans :P

Sarcazmo47: Too bad.

Sarcazmo47: Ah well.

Sarcazmo47: Work tomorrow say BEDTIME, MOFO!

AndrewRogue: Night.

Chromeus18: yep

Chromeus18: later Kirk.

Chromeus18: heyhey

Sarcazmo47: Hey hey what?

Chromeus18: did we get any of the goods we talked about?

Chromeus18: or is the money going towards building our viking ship?

Sarcazmo47: No, I blew all of our money on style instead.

Sarcazmo47: No, a lot of it went into the private army.

Sarcazmo47: Oh.

Sarcazmo47: Andrew, give him the private army log.

Chromeus18: private army?

AndrewRogue: He dun have it?

Sarcazmo47: Nope.

AndrewRogue: Mrr... last nights?

Sarcazmo47: Yep.

Sarcazmo47: PEACE

Sarcazmo47: OUT

Sarcazmo47 has left the room.

Chromeus18: i would be so insulted that a session went without me knowing, that i'd leave right now and play a video game.

Chromeus18: but my TV is broken.

AndrewRogue: It... wasn't really session.

AndrewRogue: It actually devolved into my game half-way thorough I think.

Chromeus18: where is your game stuff?

AndrewRogue: Uh... around the middle I think. Just a chat between two characters.

Chromeus18: i mean, info on the game.

Chromeus18: as in, gimme a link.

AndrewRogue: Oh. Uh... World Doc .5 sits around... www.geocities.com/terrybrash.Ent

AndrewRogue: www.geocities.com/terrybrash/Ent

AndrewRogue: ...

AndrewRogue: www.geocities.com/terrybrash/Ent

Chromeus18: that's three links

AndrewRogue: The last one is the only working one.

AndrewRogue: I'm currently building upon that doc.

AndrewRogue: Then I'm reworking the Cleric class to such a degree it makes me cry.

Chromeus18: i'm reading it now

AndrewRogue: I need to go to bed.
