[15:06] Nekira Sudacne: as for the items...
[15:06] Nekira Sudacne: remind me how many rings and bracelets you found again?
[15:07] rw271828: *rummage*
[15:08] rw271828: Daniel: A box, three rings, a necklace, a sword, a spear, and a wristguard
Daniel: "the box is the snake's"
[15:09] Nekira Sudacne: *nods* right
[15:09] Nekira Sudacne: okay...
[15:11] Nekira Sudacne: The spear is a Darkblade, you've seen hounds carry 'em before. but it seems to have more powerful enchantments. You figure it's a more advanced version, either an experiment or one he keeps handy for himself, or a bodyguard or something. You realize it has powerful armor penetrating enchantments: thickness would have more to do with how well armor staves off your death than how durable the material is. It could cut though a carbon composite like butter
[15:14] rw271828: Cool.
[15:15] Nekira Sudacne: now...gimme a precentile roll, magic lore
[15:18] rw271828: sorry phone
[15:18] rw271828: back - can you roll for me? I don't have any plastic dice, would have to load up openrpg.
[15:18] Nekira Sudacne: (before you ask, with level bonuses your Lore Magic skill is 80%...sure
[15:21] Nekira Sudacne: Meep! now you know how they found you! the cured ring has three effects: One, it actually provides greath physical strength and endurance to it's wearer. Secondly, it makes them unlucky, a general, if powerful curse of misfortuine. Thirdly, it acts as a Scrying beacon. You realize that he probablly put this ring in his stash for exsactly what happened: if someone breaks in, they'll likely get greedy and take everything, including his homing bug that seems to be a valube magic item they'll be reluctant to toss
[15:21] Nekira Sudacne: *cursed
[15:23] rw271828: Clever! Well happily now that I know about it, maybe we can think of someplace we'd like the bad guys to go a-wandering, where we can put the ring
[15:24] Nekira Sudacne: *cough* place it somewhere the gargoyles can find it to take back to their Lord, Modeus
[15:24] rw271828: Yep, that's what I'm thinking ^.^
[15:24] Nekira Sudacne: He might see though it like you did, but by the time he realizes it he'll have a small army of hounds on his heels to deal with
[15:24] rw271828: ^.^
[15:25] Nekira Sudacne: it'll work better if you can fake someone in the party's death to whoever takes it back
[15:25] Nekira Sudacne: so it seems more plausible
[15:25] Nekira Sudacne: okay
[15:25] Nekira Sudacne: next ring...
[15:25] Nekira Sudacne: ...
[15:28] Nekira Sudacne: Wow...yep...hard to beleive, but the next ring you realize might be why he got so freaking pissed off. You realize your holding one of the lost Rings of Elder in your hand. A powerful artifact of a set of unkown origen in the megaverse, but have been lost and found in various places. It greatly amplifies the magic power of any mage who wears it (it's made out of extremely rare metals that are as much magic as physical, and proivde a link between the physical and magical, making it far easier for a corperal body to manipualte the intangible force). Carol might want to keep that for herself, at least for now!
[15:29] rw271828: ...and by the time I was halfway through reading that paragraph, the words "ooh, me want!" were starting to flash into my mind!
[15:32] Nekira Sudacne: *nods* if she wears it, it will cut the PPE cost of all her spells in half, then, it doubles their range and duration. in case of spells with no range or duration of instant, effect is instead doubled
[15:35] Nekira Sudacne: (the downside is, only spellcasters can use them. And you know that most nightlords, while they have magical powers, don't actually use magic or have magical knowlage. While a nightlord that knows magic could use it to enhance his other abitilites, true, but if one found it but wasn't a mage, he personally couldn't use it but damned if he was letting anyone else have it!)
[15:43] rw271828: back - Cool - Ah! I was wondering why it was in the guy's hoard instead of on his finger, that explains it
[21:38] Nekira Sudacne: I'm assuming the Ring of Elder is currently sitting on Carol's finger?
[21:39] rw271828: Yep.
[21:39] Nekira Sudacne: allright
[21:39] Nekira Sudacne: So, two rings and a spear down, which does carol exsamine next?
[21:39] rw271828: The third ring.
[21:43] Nekira Sudacne: *nods* The third ring does the same benifical effect as the first; it provides great strength and endurance to it's wearer. A benign version of the cursed ring
[21:46] rw271828: Carol smiles and thinks about her friends, which of the physical fighter types would have most need of this? Conrad comes to mind as a possibility, he's working himself to the bone, perhaps greater endurance would help, if it includes the right type thereof?
[21:48] Nekira Sudacne: *nods* Aye, that it would. He could go for days and be healthy.
[21:48] Nekira Sudacne: not to mention be strong enough to brawl with a demon
[21:48] rw271828: She tentatively earmarks it for him then, and moves on to the necklace.
[21:51] Nekira Sudacne: As you begin to exsamine it you hear a voice in your mind "There is no need to proke and prod me so, Preistess. You need mearly ask if you wish to know about me"
[21:53] rw271828: Carol jumps, startled. *Oh, oops! Sorry,* she blushes. *Er. My name's Carol... can you tell me about yourself? Who are you?*
[21:53] Nekira Sudacne: "I have forgotten my name. It has been ages at the least. Prehaps with time I shall be given a new name."
[21:54] rw271828: *I can help come up with one, once I know more about you... er... what are you, then?*
[21:55] Nekira Sudacne: "Many simply refer to us as Artifacts. Even we cannot remember our creators but hazily."
[21:56] rw271828: *Wow! Um... What do you do, then?*
[21:56] Nekira Sudacne: "I conceal"
[21:56] rw271828: Carol perks up, implications of this starting to come to mind, if... *How do you mean... like make your wearer invisible?*
[21:57] Nekira Sudacne: "it is safer to say I conceal things that are harder to hide than once's apperance. Although I do have that power, yes"
[21:58] rw271828: *Oh, well, how do you mean? What do you conceal, then?*
[21:58] Nekira Sudacne: "All, young preistess, all."
[21:59] rw271828: *So if... say if I wanted to sneak around a place where there were demons watching that can see through disguise or invisibility spells or anything like that, you could help me do it?*
[21:59] Nekira Sudacne: "Yes"
[22:00] rw271828: *That is seriously cool. We really really need something like that!*
[22:00] Nekira Sudacne: "And for what...would you use such power young priestess?"
[22:00] rw271828: *Well... do you know about the Nightlords?*
[22:01] Nekira Sudacne: "Yes"
[22:01] Nekira Sudacne: in a voice tinges with pain
[22:02] rw271828: *That's what we're up against. We're in a place called the New German Republic right now, and the Nightlords have been infiltrating it and we're trying to stop them. They had you in a box, one of my friends rescued you. It might help an awful lot for defeating them if we could go places without them spotting us.*
[22:03] Nekira Sudacne: "Only one worthy may use my powers"
[22:04] rw271828: *Right, um, what counts as being worthy for you?*
[22:06] Nekira Sudacne: "One who will not use my powers to deceive for personal gain. One who will use me to defeat the Nightlords and other demons, and one who is pure of heart"
[22:07] rw271828: *I'm a priestess of our Lady Nesirata... I hope I qualify... and I have a few friends I think ought to qualify too.* She has to admit to herself that she's not sure Mick doesn't have too much inner rage still to meet the third criterion, but she thinks at least some of the others meet them all.
[22:08] Nekira Sudacne: "open your mind to me, young preistess"
[22:09] rw271828: Carol takes a deep breath and relaxes, opening her mind; it's an entirely reasonable request under the circumstances.
[23:55] Nekira Sudacne: Suddenly, you feel your mind awash with mystical energy, it seems to be searching, analizing, almost as if the powerful mystic sources are taking an imprint of your very soul. it spreads all thought your mind and body, from your head spreading down to the very tips of your fingers and toes until it feels as if the energy is going to overwhelm you. suddenly you receive feedback--as you begin getting a mystical impression of the object, learning instinctivly how to use it and what it does. gradually the sensation of the vasy mystical energy begins to withdraw, receeding to a tiny corner of your mind, and then it seems to rest there, and you hear more intenrally now {You are worthy. My powers are yours to command so long as you require them}
[23:57] rw271828: Carol blinks dizzily. *Oooh! Thank you! ... Now we need to come up with a name for you.* And she'll take a little time off to assimilate all that before continuing with her investigation of the other items. She also makes a mental note to talk to Mick et al and discuss ways to use this boon.
[23:57] Nekira Sudacne: That's allright. you have plenty of time
[23:58] rw271828: And I'll talk plans over with Flip over the next few days, after I've shown him the log. Meantime the sword is the next item on the identify list?
[23:59] Nekira Sudacne: actually, first is what that necklace really does...
[00:03] Nekira Sudacne: First: it provides mystic protection from all forms of scrying magic. Things that would normally let them see you invisible, as well as aura, psionics, magic, ect. are all surpressed. Essentially you, anything your carraying and the necklace itself will appear as perfectly ordinary.
[00:05] Nekira Sudacne: Secondly, it can give you the same "aura" as a nightbane, and other nightbane would recognise you as one of their own. likewise, it could mask a nightbane as human
[00:05] rw271828: That rocks!
[00:05] Nekira Sudacne:
[00:10] Nekira Sudacne: Next: It will cast on it's own the following spells; Invisibility: Supiror, Chamelon, Shadow Meld, Concealment, Chromatic Protection, Cloud of Smoke, Cloack of Darkness, and Sense Nightbane. All of which function at 7th level of ability. They can be used in any combination but no more than 12 spells in 24 hours
[00:11] rw271828: Nice!
[00:13] Nekira Sudacne: Next, it provides protection of the mind. Impervious to possession and other forms of Mind Control (unless done by a force greater than the item), and +3 to save vs. other psionic attacks
[00:13] rw271828: ^.^
[00:14] Nekira Sudacne: Finnally, it will give you hte power to peice the mirrorwall once per day
[00:15] rw271828: Ah! Now that could have definite possibilities too.
[00:15] Nekira Sudacne: Only once, meaning you have to stay in the nightlands a full 24 hours before returning home
[00:15] rw271828: But that should be reasonably safe under cover of concealment.
[00:15] Nekira Sudacne:
[00:16] Nekira Sudacne: also you learn that the necklace isn't excessivly picky, it wants to do the most good, meaning you could also give it to someone else of pure heart if you think they could use it more
[00:16] Nekira Sudacne: (Mick could benifit, however that's a no go as the item would reject him)
[00:17] rw271828: Cool. - Yeah, I kind of had that feeling I think Marcus actually counts as of pure heart, though Carol might make a more prudent spy.
[00:18] Nekira Sudacne: More than likely. subtle is NOT his forte
[00:18] Nekira Sudacne: and this one isn't really good for anything but hiding
[00:18] rw271828: Right
[00:19] Nekira Sudacne: Next, the Sword
[00:27] Nekira Sudacne: As you pick up the sword and begin to exsamine it, a somewhat familiar occurance, though this one in a harsher voice "What do you think you are DOING, little girl?" in a more booming voice than before eminating from the sword
[00:28] rw271828: Carol is perhaps a little less startled, and definitely more embarrassed, this time. "Oh! Sorry, uh, um, I was trying to find out who and what you are?"
[00:28] rw271828: "I'm Carol, priestess of our Lady Nesirata."
[00:29] Nekira Sudacne: "IF I wanted anyone to just pick me up and know what I do, don't you think i'd put up a sign?" he says sarcastically "I am a sword. what would you THINK I do."
[00:30] rw271828: "Right. Um. We're trying to defeat the Nightlords... I don't know how to use a sword myself, but maybe I could introduce you to some of my friends who do?"
[00:32] Nekira Sudacne: "Only a true warrior may weild me" he says "If your any amoung your friends who are trying to defeat the nightlords are True warriors, invite them to come weild me. Do not waste my time until then"
[00:32] Nekira Sudacne: it promptly seems to supress itself in your hand, obviously, this one isn't very personable
[00:32] rw271828: "Okay," she agrees, setting the sword carefully aside.
[00:32] Nekira Sudacne: (Marcus and Mick are probablly the only ones in the party who'd apply)
[00:32] rw271828: Carol thinks that one's quite straightforward at least!
[00:33] rw271828: [Yeah, they were the two candidates who jumped out at me ^.^]
[00:33] rw271828: And she moves on to the wristguard.
[00:34] Nekira Sudacne: As you exsamien it this time you hear a gentler voice "Ah, hello." you hear a young voice say "May I ask what you desire, young preistess?"
[00:36] rw271828: By this time she's sort of used to talking to artifacts, and replies with composure: "Hello. My name's Carol. You were being held by the Nightlords, whom we're trying to defeat; I was hoping you might be willing to help, and if so, I was wondering who you are and what you do?"
[00:37] Nekira Sudacne: A breif pause and you can sense the little presence in your mind communicating "I see. As your necklace here, I protect, although in different manners. You have her and do not need me, but if there is any your party who most needs protection, I shall gladly lend my power to the pure of heart"
[00:38] rw271828: "Thank you! What sort of protection do you provide?"
[00:38] Nekira Sudacne: Proection from the psychial and the unborn" comes the soft reply
[00:38] rw271828: [should that read "physical and the unborn"?]
[00:39] rw271828: "Unborn?" Carol queries the use of the term.
[00:40] Nekira Sudacne: "The unborn" she repeats, as if that should make things clear enough...after a moment "War does only come to those most prepared to fight. I would sheild a mother and her child"
[00:41] rw271828: [Or should the "from" in "Proection from the psychial and the unborn" have read "for"?]
[00:42] Nekira Sudacne: (That was what he ment, but nothing says all artifacts have to be very artculate )
[00:42] rw271828: [Oh, fair enough ]
[00:42] rw271828: "Oh!" Carol smiles. "That's great! I have a mother and child in mind."
[00:44] Nekira Sudacne: {Then take me to her}
[00:59] rw271828: "Will do!" And off she goes with the wristguard to find Morgan, and also to tell Marcus and Mick about the sword to see if one of them wants to try it out, and to talk over with Mick what plans to put into effect with her new concealment necklace.
[01:00] Nekira Sudacne: And for that...you'll need to wait for them to show
[01:00] Nekira Sudacne: Mick will be mostly incoherent for a while, so marc and morgan will come first
[01:00] rw271828: Yep! I'll post the log on the web site in the meantime. - Incoherent? why?
[01:01] Nekira Sudacne: Talked with him. Meeting Sir again kinda screws with his mind (he's like a God to mick, imagine if the Lady comes down and personally patted carol on the head, assuming she was a mental case in the first place)
[01:02] rw271828: Oh! Okay I definitely need to ask him ICly what the background with that is.
[15:06] Nekira Sudacne: remind me how many rings and bracelets you found again?
[15:07] rw271828: *rummage*
[15:08] rw271828: Daniel: A box, three rings, a necklace, a sword, a spear, and a wristguard
Daniel: "the box is the snake's"
[15:09] Nekira Sudacne: *nods* right
[15:09] Nekira Sudacne: okay...
[15:11] Nekira Sudacne: The spear is a Darkblade, you've seen hounds carry 'em before. but it seems to have more powerful enchantments. You figure it's a more advanced version, either an experiment or one he keeps handy for himself, or a bodyguard or something. You realize it has powerful armor penetrating enchantments: thickness would have more to do with how well armor staves off your death than how durable the material is. It could cut though a carbon composite like butter
[15:14] rw271828: Cool.
[15:15] Nekira Sudacne: now...gimme a precentile roll, magic lore
[15:18] rw271828: sorry phone
[15:18] rw271828: back - can you roll for me? I don't have any plastic dice, would have to load up openrpg.

[15:23] rw271828: Clever! Well happily now that I know about it, maybe we can think of someplace we'd like the bad guys to go a-wandering, where we can put the ring

[21:39] Nekira Sudacne: So, two rings and a spear down, which does carol exsamine next?

[00:13] Nekira Sudacne: Next, it provides protection of the mind. Impervious to possession and other forms of Mind Control (unless done by a force greater than the item), and +3 to save vs. other psionic attacks
[00:13] rw271828: ^.^
[00:14] Nekira Sudacne: Finnally, it will give you hte power to peice the mirrorwall once per day
[00:15] rw271828: Ah! Now that could have definite possibilities too.
[00:15] Nekira Sudacne: Only once, meaning you have to stay in the nightlands a full 24 hours before returning home
[00:15] rw271828: But that should be reasonably safe under cover of concealment.
[00:15] Nekira Sudacne:
[00:16] Nekira Sudacne: also you learn that the necklace isn't excessivly picky, it wants to do the most good, meaning you could also give it to someone else of pure heart if you think they could use it more
[00:16] Nekira Sudacne: (Mick could benifit, however that's a no go as the item would reject him)
[00:17] rw271828: Cool. - Yeah, I kind of had that feeling I think Marcus actually counts as of pure heart, though Carol might make a more prudent spy.
[00:18] Nekira Sudacne: More than likely. subtle is NOT his forte
[00:18] Nekira Sudacne: and this one isn't really good for anything but hiding
[00:18] rw271828: Right
[00:19] Nekira Sudacne: Next, the Sword
[00:27] Nekira Sudacne: As you pick up the sword and begin to exsamine it, a somewhat familiar occurance, though this one in a harsher voice "What do you think you are DOING, little girl?" in a more booming voice than before eminating from the sword
[00:28] rw271828: Carol is perhaps a little less startled, and definitely more embarrassed, this time. "Oh! Sorry, uh, um, I was trying to find out who and what you are?"
[00:28] rw271828: "I'm Carol, priestess of our Lady Nesirata."
[00:29] Nekira Sudacne: "IF I wanted anyone to just pick me up and know what I do, don't you think i'd put up a sign?" he says sarcastically "I am a sword. what would you THINK I do."
[00:30] rw271828: "Right. Um. We're trying to defeat the Nightlords... I don't know how to use a sword myself, but maybe I could introduce you to some of my friends who do?"
[00:32] Nekira Sudacne: "Only a true warrior may weild me" he says "If your any amoung your friends who are trying to defeat the nightlords are True warriors, invite them to come weild me. Do not waste my time until then"
[00:32] Nekira Sudacne: it promptly seems to supress itself in your hand, obviously, this one isn't very personable
[00:32] rw271828: "Okay," she agrees, setting the sword carefully aside.
[00:32] Nekira Sudacne: (Marcus and Mick are probablly the only ones in the party who'd apply)
[00:32] rw271828: Carol thinks that one's quite straightforward at least!
[00:33] rw271828: [Yeah, they were the two candidates who jumped out at me ^.^]
[00:33] rw271828: And she moves on to the wristguard.
[00:34] Nekira Sudacne: As you exsamien it this time you hear a gentler voice "Ah, hello." you hear a young voice say "May I ask what you desire, young preistess?"
[00:36] rw271828: By this time she's sort of used to talking to artifacts, and replies with composure: "Hello. My name's Carol. You were being held by the Nightlords, whom we're trying to defeat; I was hoping you might be willing to help, and if so, I was wondering who you are and what you do?"
[00:37] Nekira Sudacne: A breif pause and you can sense the little presence in your mind communicating "I see. As your necklace here, I protect, although in different manners. You have her and do not need me, but if there is any your party who most needs protection, I shall gladly lend my power to the pure of heart"
[00:38] rw271828: "Thank you! What sort of protection do you provide?"
[00:38] Nekira Sudacne: Proection from the psychial and the unborn" comes the soft reply
[00:38] rw271828: [should that read "physical and the unborn"?]
[00:39] rw271828: "Unborn?" Carol queries the use of the term.
[00:40] Nekira Sudacne: "The unborn" she repeats, as if that should make things clear enough...after a moment "War does only come to those most prepared to fight. I would sheild a mother and her child"
[00:41] rw271828: [Or should the "from" in "Proection from the psychial and the unborn" have read "for"?]
[00:42] Nekira Sudacne: (That was what he ment, but nothing says all artifacts have to be very artculate )
[00:42] rw271828: [Oh, fair enough ]
[00:42] rw271828: "Oh!" Carol smiles. "That's great! I have a mother and child in mind."
[00:44] Nekira Sudacne: {Then take me to her}
[00:59] rw271828: "Will do!" And off she goes with the wristguard to find Morgan, and also to tell Marcus and Mick about the sword to see if one of them wants to try it out, and to talk over with Mick what plans to put into effect with her new concealment necklace.
[01:00] Nekira Sudacne: And for that...you'll need to wait for them to show
[01:00] Nekira Sudacne: Mick will be mostly incoherent for a while, so marc and morgan will come first
[01:00] rw271828: Yep! I'll post the log on the web site in the meantime. - Incoherent? why?
[01:01] Nekira Sudacne: Talked with him. Meeting Sir again kinda screws with his mind (he's like a God to mick, imagine if the Lady comes down and personally patted carol on the head, assuming she was a mental case in the first place)
[01:02] rw271828: Oh! Okay I definitely need to ask him ICly what the background with that is.
