* ['''A''']:  Does anyone need/want any sort of rolls to be made for anything?  I spoke with Bill tonight.  He'll likely reply here soon.  So there may be a flurry of conversation through Saturday.  We won't be PLAYING Saturday but we will be doing some "game maintenance" and possibly finishing any conversations like this.  Otherwise if I can help with any info here, let me know.

"Zal'Kazzir, you bring up a good point.  I shall do some study of the undead creatures that Vrolk seems to favor so that we are better prepared if we encounter opposition of that type.
 
 
"I have some other thoughts about Vrolk's intentions.  It is almost certain that the warg who escorted the skeletal bull-men did not send the beasts to drive us off or to slay us.  The intentions of Vrolk should be evident: he is sizing us up.
 
 
"The best purpose I can deduce is that he thinks he can use us somehow.  He has the means and resources to have finished us off in the woods long ago, as you say Durgaz.  The warg could have brought a score more than three skeletal beings our way and we would have stood no chance.  He has no reason to wait for us to come into his home before killing us, other than perhaps to have our corpses more immediately on-hand.  No, it is clear that he wants to know how strong a force we can muster and whether our strengths will be enough to set against some foe of his own.
 
 
"I may have some more insight into Vrolk's greater purposes, though it is only through an educated guess.  My.... "friend"... who studied with Vrolk was once of a like mind as myself, and the pursuit of knowledge was his greatest ambition.  He chose the coward's path and I did not, but his goals are likely still the same.  If it is Vrolk he studied under, then Vrolk's resources of knowledge must be considerable.  Perhaps it is Vrolk's greatest purpose, in fact.
 
 
"How this may be of use to us is unclear, but it is something we should keep in mind, especially if we encounter him ourselves.  Our tongues should be held with shackles of control at all times."  As he says this he pointedly stares at Zal'Kazzir.  "Be wary of what you hear and of what you say, for either could be our undoing.
 
 
"Now is the time to begin a regimen of herbalistic bolsters, Eranon.  I have been imbibing the clear-thought oil you gave me, and I suggest the rest of you do all do what you can to likewise ensure that wisdom prevails in the face of someone who expects to be able to elicit our services.
 
 
''OOC: Kyuad is going to use his Foe Specialty ability (it's one of the h. channeler's tradition gifts or Lorebook powers) to gain special knowledge of undead creatures.  Kyuad is also beginning to benefit from the +1 Int oil soon.  Does Kyuad know of any reference to an item like the Shard, or similar material, causing a curse?  Anything about the curse in the swamp at all?  (I haven't cought up on everything, so it might be answered already, I'll look.)''

* ['''A''']:  Bill... For the *Foe Specialty check about the Undead herein... According to the book:  <br>  It says to make a "Knowledge check", I'm guessing this would fall under "Know: Spirits" for the check.  We can discuss this if you think differently... but for now I will assume that you would not necessarily "trust" the chance of rolling less than a 10 (as it notes you CAN take 10) So I'll roll for you and go with the higher of Taking 10 or the Roll...  <br> '' '''ROLL:'''  Kyuad (Knowledge Spirits/Undead +11)  ROLLED:  11+11(+1 Int oil)  =  23 ''  <br>  Okay... Not much better but you get...  ''"Uncommon but available, known by only a few people in the area....."'' to gain special knowledge of undead creatures.  <br>  [http://wiki.rpg.net/index.php/Kyuad%27s_Lorebook#Study_of_the_Undead See Kyuad's Lorebook for details] <br>  For note on '''Foe Specialty''': "This power may be chosen multiple times; each time it is chosen, the hermetic channeler may use the foe specialty ability on one additional creature type per day. The hermetic channeler recognizes the value of knowledge as a weapon. At the beginning of each day, he may choose one creature type as he peruses his book. The channeler may take 10 when making Knowledge checks to identify creatures and their special powers or vulnerabilities. Additionally, the channeler can rattle off what he knows about such creatures by rote. In game terms, this means that he may communicate any knowledge he has about such creatures to his companions as soon as initiative is rolled, assuming his companions are within earshot.
 
 
 
* ['''A''']:  Bill... Does Kyuad know of any reference to an item like the Shard, or similar material, causing a curse?  <br> '' '''ROLL:'''  Kyuad (Lorebook +8)  ROLLED:  17+8(+1 Int oil)  =  26 ''  <br>    ''With this roll - Kyuad gains "Obscure, known by few, hard to come by...."'' to gain info on the Shard or a similar item causing a curse.  <br>  '' WORKING '' <br> 
 
 
 
* ['''A''']:  Bill... Anything about the curse in the swamp at all?  <br> '' '''ROLL:'''  Kyuad (Lorebook +8)  ROLLED:  7+8(+1 Int oil)  =  16 ''  <br>    ''With this roll - Kyuad gains  "Common, known by at least a substantial minority of the local population...." '' to gain info on any curse in the Dead Marshes swamp.  <br>    '' WORKING '' <br>
