Adventure Announcements and Sign-up

• Northern Lords - Med-High - Jono Bean Monday night. Introduced by a short, pale, long-haired person who didn't speak much Common. Had to get in the Guild Translator. He's looking for a few extra persons to go on a boat north as one of their Lords has gone missing. There have been border disputes and the dwarves have also lost some silver. Payment is in silver ingots which may or may not have been originally dwarven. Also looking for a Bishop as husband to his sister. Monday; High; Raunui.
• A Quiet Contemplative Trip - William. Introduced by a hobbit cook from the Slippery Rock House Bar and Spiritual Retreat. Want a party to escort some pilgrims past some dragons and krakens (as indicated on their maps). Monday; Extreme
• South Gate Rot - Jim. Guild Security looking for volunteers to go forth into Alusia and find out what's wrong. Seems there's something rotten in Southgate, located north of the Guild. Wednesdays; Low/Violent.
• Through A Mirror Darkly - Jacqui. Bryan McAllister from Caledonia. His sister got married to a McDonald but her last few letters said her new husband was getting stranger and more paranoid. Then the letters stopped coming. Guild party required to investigate. Tuesdays; Medium.

Awards

• Smartest
  • Rahne - Devious enough to ask ? to confiscate the required items for creating a portal before they were handed over to the bad guys party employers. - WINNER
  • No Vote
• Bravest
  • Erzsabet - Even though she knew this was Certain Death, she used her healing sword 'Wound Healer' to strike an artifact containing thousands and thousands of trapped souls (including the one they wanted) that was powering the drow outpost known as Argon's Watch. This caused a megaexplosion that released the souls and caused the tower to collapse. - WINNER

  • No Vote
• Stupidest
  • Erzsabet - They were fighting chaos creatures and one of them was affecting Kilroy. She chose to exclude Kilroy from military discussion causing him to act really chaotically.
  • Kilroy - Hitting chaos creatures with a sacrificing item that caused him to be infused with chaos - WINNER
  • Lath - She had a soul jar that needed emptying so that the soul they wanted could be put in it. The only warning the party got before she emptied it of the ice demon was "Kilroy - Kill this".
  • Marseille - As they entered the Michaeline tomb, all the sarcophagi levitated up revealing the remains and loot. Even though the party leader had said not to, Marseille instinctively grabbed for some loot and the sarcophagus dropped on him.
  • Cher - Even after Lath had already pushed two people off her cloud, Cher decided to give her 'lip' and was also pushed off.
  • No Vote

• Best Death
