<@&1227805666723364995> just pinging if anyone has any bonus action ideas share em here hoping to get the prompt in soon

jade karma
#

seeing its been like 48 hours now and nobody else has a straight up idea i think you should go with this but idk about bonus action

#

bonus actions are non-mandatory if u dont have anything to do

#

you could just do movement or something like that

limber zinc
#

yeah i could agree to that

#

uhhhhhhhhh maybe bonus action we could try to make contact with our goddess again for more guidance?

#

<@&1227805666723364995> what do y'all think

#

if everyone agrees to that can someone write it up and submit it i'm gonna be at lunch for a bit

viscid rapids
#

we can ask her about the mysterious energy

limber zinc
#

oooh yeah that's a good idea

jade karma
#

thats a good idea

#

seeing theres not really anymore ideas being thrown around do you think relatively soon u could write this stuff up and submit it @viscid rapids

viscid rapids
#

ACTION - Use Ray of Frost on the water around the constructs to trap their feet in ice
BONUS ACTION - Ask our goddess whats up with the mysterious energy under the boat

leaden remnant
#

Ok

jade karma
#

ARTEMIS!!!!!!!!!

#

BIRD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ivory cedar
#

YAAAAAAY

#

bird!!

viscid rapids
limber zinc
#

also what the fuck do we do next

#

<@&1227805666723364995> two orders of business rn

#

one is significantly less important

#

but i'd still like to hear your takes

ivory cedar
#

good morning

limber zinc
#

hi! good morning

#

inverna is... somewhere right now

ivory cedar
#

arguably

#

i saw yea

#

i don’t have any ideas for the request but ill think on it

jade karma
#

gay saint inverna

limber zinc
# limber zinc

ALSO I SHOULD CLARIFY IT SAYS JUST BI FOR THE SAKE OF SAVING SPACE, PRETEND THOSE OPTIONS SAY BI/PAN OKAY I SHALL RETURN TO THE VOID NOW BYYYYYYYE

ivory cedar
#

any request ideas yet

ivory cedar
#

i guess we should start by like narrowing it down

#

do we want like something that makes our spellcasting/combat stronger, something that will help us in other individual situations, something that helps us progress our overall goal on a large scale?

jade karma
#

what're we thinking

#

your request can be like as broad as you want or as specific as you want

limber zinc
#

idk we just. look around to see if we can find any way to get to the rest of our crew

#

ACTION - Look around the wasteland to see if anything stands out as an objective.
BONUS ACTION - If anything stands out, start walking towards it.

#

<@&1227805666723364995> does this sound good?

limber zinc
#

it's a close contest right now

jade karma
jade karma
#

incase anyone else misses it ur thing rn is a request no action or bonus action

<@&1227805666723364995>

Inverna stands still in complete shock, 1000 feet in the air, being carried by a giant crow. She quickly realizes though, that as soon as they left the ship they shifted to a different plane of existence, and the fog clears and sheets of ice emerge. The crow, which she identifies now as the stead of Merideth, Artemis, lands on the ice and Merideth runs over to Inverna, hugging her.

Merideth: "I thought you died."

Inverna embraces her, a goddess crying on her shoulder is something she never expected to happen. Eventually they pull away and she explains that she needs to go back and save the rest of the crew.

Merideth: "Something else took the rest of your crew, I do not know what it was but there was four distinct magical energies around that ship, each of them just as powerful or... more powerful, than my own."

Merideth looks towards Artemis, who bows their head and rests themselves. A giant crow with a crown on their head and only one eye, the other replaced with a massive scar. Artemis was a crow from a plane of existence higher than even the gods, the primordial darkness that created the universe, but they fell from that dimension eons ago due to breaking the primary rule, no interacting with the rest of the universe. You ask Merideth if they knew anything about the giant construct you saw, explaining how powerful it was.

Merideth: "It is a monster far stronger than you, one that I thought had died a long, long time ago. I cannot tell you any more, the more you know about it the worse things get. Listen, I need you to listen to me, killing that beast is now our highest priority, otherwise the entire world, including Helstia, is in grave danger."

You nod your head, Merideth looks past you, into the distance for a moment, then turns back to you.

Merideth: "Something has happened to your ship, I believe it is safe to take you back now. I wish I could do more, but all I can give you is one miracle, please, tell me what it is you desire to help you in this fight."

Current #event-submissions format:

REQUEST - (your teams request for help from Merideth goes here)

Currently, movement IS NOT being counted/matters to follow, one square on the map currently equals N/A Feet.
(Your character is the red icon with your team number on it)

#

maybe we could ask for some way to detect latent energy from the beast? i'm not sure if that's useful or possible though

jade karma
#

from when you calculated how many years you'd get you know you already have this sorta power to detect latent energy/power

#

unless you mean specifically this beast nvm

ivory cedar
#

yeah i meant specifically the crystal guy

#

it could help for tracking or identifying anyone corrupted by the beast like drading was

limber zinc
jade karma
#

maybe make a poll about it/ping seeing i dont think anyone else has ideas up to u

ivory cedar
#

<@&1227805666723364995>

#

okay and thats a majority

#

REQUEST - Some sort of way to identify the crystal beast's latent energy, to help with tracking it down and identifying its corruption.

#

@viscid rapids if you think this is good i think you can just send it

viscid rapids
#

👍

jade karma
#

<@&1227805666723364995> your first round of downtime!

jade karma
#

it takes like 2 days for the forums to vanish from my sidebar wow Clueless

limber zinc
#

QUICK EVERYONE TALK ABOUT LESBIANS TO KEEP THIS FORUM ALIVE

#

DON'T LET THE FLAME DIE OUT

ivory cedar
#

it bothers me endlessly that the reaactions on this thread spell out yurie

verbal sorrel
#

isnt it spelled without an e

limber zinc
#

i misclicked and accidentally e reacted long ago

#

and now it's literally impossible for me to retract it

ivory cedar
gusty meteor
#

the yuries?
like the ones down in hades?

All my forums disappeared again thumbsup

viscid rapids
#

lovely

viscid rapids
#

alpharadPride
i dont have a lesbian flag emote this is the closest i got

ivory cedar
#

i have more but most of them are worse

#

this one’s good though

ivory cedar
#

anyway how are we feeling about actions

viscid rapids
#

im curious like

#

could we get past the checkpoint off of reputation?

#

like just a general curiosity might not be the best thing to use an action on

raven ice
#

You have a better reputation than most of us.

viscid rapids
#

we are basically a folk hero

limber zinc
#

we ARE a folk hero, they'd probably let us through off that

viscid rapids
#

actually we could probably help group 2 get into the mines since they're trying to go in

#

like we'd be seen as a credible source

raven ice
#

This party consists of:

  • Pirate Leader
  • Framed Assassin
  • Tax Evader
  • Mad Conspiracy Theorist
  • FOLK HERO WHO SAVED TOWNS
  • Golf-Obsessed Gremlin
#

If anyone can walk through a checkpoint, it's you guys.

viscid rapids
#

<@&1227805666723364995> what do we think of this direction?

ivory cedar
#

i like the idea but i also am wondering about the flower

jade karma
#

you could bonus action wave the flower around see if its a direction thing or somethin like that

ivory cedar
#

could do that

#

i dont think it is but it wouldn't hurt to check

#

i mean i guess my other question is what we want to actually do at the checkpoint

#

because it only blocks off the copper mine right?
and i don't think we want to go there alone

jade karma
#

Two other groups are going there right now

ivory cedar
#

oh

#

well okay that changes my question do we want to be seen at an official checkpoint being associated with a known fugitive

jade karma
#

Flint is attempting to make fake IDs for the group

#

We’ll see how that goes Clueless

ivory cedar
#

yes but in the event that somehow goes wrong i would like to avoid losing out advantage of actually having a positive reputation

#

well ill see what everyone else thinks

jade karma
#

its been over 24 hours so maybe make a poll on whehter or not to go to the mines

#

you could just try follow the flower around/see if its a distance thing

ivory cedar
#

<@&1227805666723364995>

jade karma
#

the children yearn for the mines

#

if i was fucked id put child labourers in the campaign

raven ice
#

It’s all on you guys. Looks like Flower is the hot item right now.

ivory cedar
#

we still have a couple people left to vote

ivory cedar
#

@trail ridge @dense isle @leaden remnant vote

ivory cedar
#

ok that is a majority on the flower

#

do we know what we're doing for bonus action?

raven ice
#

You could always just do a classic "Ask around" check?

#

Or buy something. There's a price chart on the notes.

viscid rapids
#

ACTION - Try to use the flower like a radar to see what its blinking at
BONUS ACTION - Ask around the town for general info, maybe to see if there are any monsters or such nearby that have been terrorizing people

#

<@&1227805666723364995>

#

thoughts

limber zinc
#

sounds good to me!

ivory cedar
#

sounds good

manic solstice
#

it works 👍

ivory cedar
jade karma
#

hey atleast you know the flower leads to the mines instead of just going to the mines Clueless

ivory cedar
#

and at least we didnt try using a fake id for it

#

how much do you think we are going to have to yell at the other two groups here to not do something dumb (/lh)

viscid rapids
#

see guys i knew what i was doing i was locked in

ivory cedar
#

okay so what's the plan now

#

my thought is to ask around for anything strange but i'm not sure we'd get an answer if everyone is working

ivory cedar
#

do we have any potentially useful spells
what does detect thoughts do i can’t check rn

ashen monolith
#

For a minute, you can hear the surface thoughts of any creatures within 30 feet of you, this spell ends if you lose concentration

ivory cedar
#

i think we should probably cast that and/or ask around about anything weird going on with the mines lately

viscid rapids
#

true

ivory cedar
#

so does anyone else have any other ideas

ivory cedar
limber zinc
#

i think that sounds good

jade karma
#

id say go for it nobody seems opposed thats commented so far

ivory cedar
#

since detect thoughts is concentration based does it take up both our actions

#

(also that was an and/or not one suggestion but i guess we're just doing both then)

jade karma
viscid rapids
#

ACTION - Cast detect thoughts
BONUS ACTION - uhh h idk probably just movement towards the mines

#

<@&1227805666723364995>

limber zinc
#

sounds good

ivory cedar
jade karma
#

post when u can thumbsup

viscid rapids
#

i was slaying in guilty gear strive

jade karma
#

so... dandy....

viscid rapids
#

men... 🚬, huh

ivory cedar
#

It is pride month, beast hunters. You know what that means.

viscid rapids
#

yuri !!!!!!!

viscid rapids
#

> flower that detects jewels of the ocean
> leads us to rock/mineral deposit

#

the flower isnt red so the jewels aren't directly a threat yet but

i think we needa check out that warehouse

#

we should probably convince the manager to let us take a look there

#

<@&1227805666723364995>

ivory cedar
#

oh is that what the flower was sayign

#

i was confused about what it meant

#

my concern is that i dont think the manager is going to be very cooperative if we just ask for permission without any sort of concrete evidence

jade karma
#

to clarify

#

the flower was a very faint red with the trail you followed

#

now the trail outright ends/the flower goes back to blue as you reach the front of this warehouse

viscid rapids
#

the trail led us here for a reason tho

ivory cedar
#

i mean my other thought is that it means it's below us

#

i dont think we need to look inside the warehouse i think we should just try to get information on if anything odd has been happening around the mines

ivory cedar
#

so any other thoughts from anyone <@&1227805666723364995>

ivory cedar
#

boowomp

gray tree
#

Womp womp

jade karma
#

echo and bird you two could make calls and then just do a poll since nobody else is contributing ideas lol

viscid rapids
#

@ivory cedar so we're asking around right?

ivory cedar
#

but yeah i think we should explain that we're tracking a monster and ask if they know anything

#

the detect thoughts spell should let us know where to press in case he does know anything we just have to be careful about it

#

also we might need to make our bonus action stopping gladivus from eating a rock

limber zinc
ivory cedar
#

ACTION - Tell the dwarf we're tracking a monster and ask if anything has been strange in the mines lately.
BONUS ACTION - Stop Gladivus from eating a rock.

#

@viscid rapids you think this is good?

viscid rapids
#

yea

limber zinc
#

sounds good to me too

#

sorry i haven't been active here recently

ivory cedar
#

we're so washed

ivory cedar
#

okay we got a lot of information out of that at least

viscid rapids
#

we should probably ask as much as we can

#

probably ask about the injured dwarves

ivory cedar
#

maybe? we probably need reason to do that because theyre trying to hide something and we dont want to give them reason to chase us off

ivory cedar
#

<@&1227805666723364995>

ivory cedar
#

sooo it appears we have decided

#

@viscid rapids can you do a writeup for it

viscid rapids
#

give me time i just woke up

verbal sorrel
#

I've had days where it feels like perpetually waking up, usually when the insurance doesn't let me fill my meds until the day after I run out

jade karma
#

if u guys could do it plz 🙏

raven ice
raven ice
#

Ummm...

#

<@&1227805666723364995> Anyone?

ivory cedar
#

okay

#

ACTION - Ask Santa about the "issues around the mine".
BONUS ACTION - Continue concentrating on the Detect Thoughts spell.

viscid rapids
#

SORRY/.... IM PLAIYNG AMONG US

#

ill send this

ivory cedar
#

alright so are we heading down?

manic solstice
#

yeah I don't know what we can do other than just... walk in

limber zinc
#

yeah sounds good to me

ivory cedar
#

any ideas for a bonus action if anything

ivory cedar
#

ill take that as a no

ivory cedar
#

soooooo

ivory cedar
#

<@&1227805666723364995> any ideas for bonus action

limber zinc
ivory cedar
#

sounds good

#

ACTION - Head down into the mine, searching for the monster.
BONUS ACTION - Consult with Merideth for guidance.
@viscid rapids if this is good with you go ahead and send it

viscid rapids
#

👍

jade karma
#

you guys shouldnt let gladivus out of your line of sight

viscid rapids
#

he let himself out of our sight

ivory cedar
#

i get the feeling this is not going to go well

viscid rapids
#

we should follow the minecart trail

ivory cedar
#

so what preparations are we gonna make

manic solstice
#

what do we have?

ivory cedar
#

just our normal gear pretty much

#

we could try to do a check to recall the enemy's strengths and weaknesses?

jade karma
#

from your downtime you know it is immune to/is powered up by magma

ivory cedar
#

ok thats a strength

#

if we fought it before we probably have some idea of what its weaknesses are right

jade karma
#

yes, ice

#

teehee

ivory cedar
#

fair enough!

ivory cedar
#

well

#

then what

#

we're following the minecart trail what else are we doing

jade karma
#

if nobody else has any ideas you can just decide yourself

ivory cedar
#

i also don't have ideas which is the problem

#

<@&1227805666723364995> we're heading down past the barrier, what sort of preparations do we want to make for fighting the magma snake

manic solstice
#

maybe we could try calling out the gladivus?

jade karma
#

you guys still have detect thoughts up so you have concentration going

#

so in terms of spells prep you dont have anything really since your one concentration thing for no enemies directly around is already active

#

maybe do a poll to see if you will yell for gladivus or if you'll like prep your weapon for a spell for an advantage on your next roll/be cautious while entering so you cannot get surprised

ivory cedar

ivory cedar
#

@viscid rapids can you do writeup for it

viscid rapids
#

ACTION: Call out for Gladvius
BONUS ACTION: Keep up our concentration I guess. Maybe it'll let us hear Gladvius's thoughts

ivory cedar
#

well we also gotta move too

viscid rapids
#

true

#

MOVEMENT: Follow the minecart tracks deeper into the mines

ivory cedar
#

looks good

viscid rapids
#

intriguing.

ivory cedar
#

fascinating.

ivory cedar

jade karma
manic solstice
#

uh uh

#

ask flint what they're looking at

jade karma
#

this group seems to be the one with the least people lmao

#

<@&1227805666723364995> any ideas apart from kirboi asking flint

trail ridge
#

I will be honest guys.... I kind of forgot about this like. The day it started

#

The role may be.. taken from me

viscid rapids
#

rip...

ivory cedar
#

i mean half the team hasnt checked in in forever anyway

limber zinc
#

hi sorry i've been busy with stuff

#

i've committed to too many things

verbal sorrel
#

I'm sure there could be a form to drop/join the event at some point

raven ice
#

So, the guys left here have an idea going?

ivory cedar
#

not really

#

being fully honest ive been pretty demotivated since ive been the only one doing stuff for this

jade karma
#

does anyone wanna join/move to this group thats more active maybe to fill it out with people more active

#

the rest have atleast some active people this ones pretty dead without echo

subtle ore
jade karma
#

if the teams ok with it

#

any ideas new honorary member Clueless

subtle ore
#

okay uh let me just refresh myself on inervas situation + her sheet

#

Alright so best thing to do at the moment is to just listen to flint trying to tell us of the baby snakes. Maybe cast Armour of Agathys just in case. this is a situation that definitely requires more context to whats going on before making any big actions.

viscid rapids
#

i had literally zero ideas with this one

limber zinc
#

plus it's tough to come up with ideas

jade karma
#

<@&1227805666723364995> @subtle ore Clueless

jade karma
#

@subtle ore if u could write it up please honorary group 5 member

#

its okay ill lock back into dnd

ivory cedar
#

oh

raven ice
#

Yeah, I was gonna say...

subtle ore
#

Okay for the next action it wouldn't hurt to follow flint down to the crystal as it seems that what group 4 are planning to do, but future plans really do depend on how gladivus plans to help the snake so i say we wait for group 2 to figure out their action before committing to ours.

viscid rapids
#

i think we should just kinda stand back and see what happens

jade karma
#

<@&1227805666723364995> thoughts on mozsys idea

limber zinc
#

sounds good

ivory cedar
#

i like it yeah

subtle ore
#

ACTION: Follow behind Flint towards the butterflies

#

<@&1227805666723364995> Any complaints before submitting?
