I can't find my thread . . .oh well . . .

ahem. This time I explored the personal history of the party's resident orc -- Kyrgan. And you get the log of the session in this post ...

41015) DM: :fade in.
(41015) DM: EXT: VILLAGE OF WODFELD, 1 MILE AWAY FROM CRECY'S CAVE -- DAY.
(41015) DM: Two weeks after saving Maeg, the group is recouperating in Wodfeld.
(41015) DM: Maria and Moquois are under the clerics' care in the village and you two are just walking around in the field.
** (41091) Kyrgan is trying to teach his lynx tricks **
(41015) DM: Okay.
** (41061) Ramian sits on a rock nearby, watching Kyrgan teach his lynx tricks while scratching his wolf behind the ears. **
(41015) DM: The lynx looks at Kyrgan with an inquistive eye.
** (41061) Ramian looks down at his wolf and looks around, picking up a stick and tossing it off in some direction. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Learn help Kyrgan attack who try hurt."
(41015) DM: The wolf runs after the stick.
(41091) Kyrgan: "No! not eat stick. Stay and help."
** (41061) Ramian watches his wolf run off with a smile, then looks over at Kyrgan. "It might be a good idea to teach the both of them how to fight with us and each other, it would come in handy later." **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Me try yes."
(41015) DM: The lynx yawns.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Minka scare doggy."
(41015) DM: Minka looks at the wolf, and hisses, and then licks her paw.
** (41061) Ramian chuckles to himself, sitting back down and waiting for his wolf to come back with the stick. **
(41015) DM: The wolf comes back, wagging its tail.
(41091) Kyrgan: "How make teach?"
(41061) Ramian: "I don't know, I'm a wolf person. If Minka were a wolf I'd be able to teach her no problem."
** (41061) Ramian scratches the wolf behind the ears again and reaches for the stick. **
(41061) Ramian: "But I suppose a good start would be teaching it to chase something to build up it's endurance."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Only like chase rabbit."
(41061) Ramian: "You got a rabbit's foot, or fur?"
** (41091) Kyrgan scratches his head **
(41061) Ramian: "Or a dead rabbit..."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Not now maybe find good?"
(41015) DM: As you talk, an orc from Kyrgan's tribe walks into your presence.
(41061) Ramian: "We might be able to make something for her to chase if we do..."
** (41091) Kyrgan looks surprised to see him **
(41015) Orc from the North: Kyrgan, your father desires to see you.
(41091) Kyrgan: "What Here .....?"
(41015) Orc from the North: No. Back home.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Inkrrrtsh granamoko tuendresk ....?"
** (41061) Ramian watches the second orc idly keeping a hand on his lap near his sword, but not on it. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "He not mad?"
(41091) Kyrgan: "GRAAAAAAAAA!"
(41015) Orc from the North: No, he not mad.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan go! Must come all new friend?"
** (41091) Kyrgan is looking quite irritated and animated **
** (41015) Orc from the North looks at Ramien non-plussedly. **
** (41061) Ramian looks back at the orc, scratching his wolf behind the ears still, though more absently now. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Not hurt Kyrgan. Nice."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Mebbe mear good tribe?"
** (41015) Orc from the North speaks more gutteral orcish **
(41091) Kyrgan: (( mear = meat ))
(41091) Kyrgan: "Graaaaa! Kyrgan go!"
** (41091) Kyrgan rushes to go find his few things and get ready. **
(41015) Orc from the North: (( Sorry Ramien, I couldn't pass up this opportunity to explore Kyrgan's story. ))
(41061) Ramian: (( I'll live. :P))
(41015) Orc from the North: (( Awesome. ))
(41015) Orc from the North: He walks off, in dramatic fashion.
(41061) Ramian: ((S'pose I just went off to keep Maeg company then.))
** (41091) Kyrgan would bring friends if he thought it wouldn't hurt them **
(41015) Orc from the North: (( I think Kyrgan invited you to go. ))
** (41091) Kyrgan makes sure he has his bow, sword, and a couple of torches just in case and some food, and makes sure Minka will come too. **
(41091) Kyrgan: During his rushing around he would invite any of his new friends if they want to go with him.
(41015) DM: (( well, its official, you're invited. ))
** (41061) Ramian goes off to tell Maeg where they're going and to leave his wolf with her as protection. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Much go need see father now. Come good?"
** (41061) Ramian decides to write a note and tie it around his wolf's neck instead, then tells the wolf to go and keep Maeg protected. **
(41061) Ramian: "As long as they don't try to kill me."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Wolf not reed. Time go yes? Need walk father."
(41015) DM: And now through the magic of DM movie magic . . .
(41015) DM: :transition too . .
(41015) DM: EXT: ON A SHIP BOUND FOR LUSKAN.
(41015) DM: And Ramien is sea sick . .
(41015) DM:
(41061) Ramian: ((I am? Drat.))
(41091) Kyrgan: "Hmmmph .... ride horse same as boat jump. Why much sick?"
** (41061) Ramian grips the railing of the ship tightly and looks over at Kyrgan. "A horse doesn't sway back and forth on water." **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Horse smart. Not walk water. Only drink."
(41015) DM: (( it will be an extremely hard (-30) manuever to understand that, Ramien. ))
(41061) Ramian: "What's that say about us then?"
(41061) Ramian: ((Understand what?))
(41015) DM: (( nevermind. ))
(41061) Ramian: ((I find it difficult to not understand Kyrgan. :P))
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan swim. But much far swim now. So find water bug wood take."
(41015) DM: Another sailor who's sick suddenly and humorously, hurles his lunch into the water. "Stupid gruel" he says.
** (41061) Ramian stares at Kyrgan, not understanding the last part. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "You work wood bug ans sick?"
(41061) Ramian: "What?"
(41061) Ramian: "What wood bug?"
(41091) Kyrgan: "Huh?"
(41091) Kyrgan: "Ohhh .... points all around at the boat. Wood water bug, yes?"
(41061) Ramian: "The water bugs the wood?"
** (41061) Ramian stares at him for a moment. "The boat is like a water bug?" **
** (41091) Kyrgan scratches his head **
** (41091) Kyrgan nods enthusiastically. "Yessssss Gra you see!" **
(41015) DM: Another sailor, healthy, throws out some slop.
(41015) DM: :transition to . . .
(41015) DM: EXT: KURGAN'S ORC VILLAGE, MORNING.
(41015) DM: You're both on horses.
** (41091) Kyrgan is looking more and more anxious as they approach **
** (41061) Ramian just keeps a wary eye out, not entirely sure agreeing to walk into an orc village as a human was a good idea. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan tell not meat. You good be friend."
(41061) Ramian: "Doesn't usually stop them, but... Better than nothing I guess."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Tribe not hurt. Not like udder orc."
(41061) Ramian: "I certainly hope so, I'd hate to make my wolf an orphan."
** (41091) Kyrgan enters the settlement and starts heading to his home **
(41015) DM: Two orc guards look at you, with spears in hand.
(41015) DM: They speak Orcish
(41091) Kyrgan: "Unda Shakel"
** (41061) Ramian has no idea what they're saying. **
(41015) DM: They point at Ramien and speak more orcish.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Tell Kyrgan welcome home."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kra gash no tel di nocorga."
(41015) DM: They speak more orcish, and then turn to Ramien and smile and pat him on the back like he's a drinking buddy.
** (41061) Ramian looks like he's both surprised and weirded out, used to the other kind of orc... **
** (41091) Kyrgan looks at Ramien with a toothy smile ... then turn sharply back to the guards and shouts. "Tagahhhhhnnnn!" he then rushes forward. **
(41015) DM: (( I'm more pragmatic with them. ))
** (41091) Kyrgan is almost too focused on something **
** (41061) Ramian thinks to himself that this is the weirdest day of his life. **
(41015) DM: You approach the yurt of Kyrgan's father. And Kyrgan's mother comes out, she's looking sad.
** (41091) Kyrgan is headed to the largest building in the camp **
** (41091) Kyrgan runs to her and kneels **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan come soon as hear."
(41015) DM: Kyrgan, good boy.
(41015) Kyrgan's mother: Good boy, Kyrgan. Your father is inside, he not well.
** (41091) Kyrgan stands and moans but still pays his respect to his mother. Then he heads into the yurt. first telling Ramien .... **
** (41061) Ramian simply looks around with a curious and still somewhat wary look on his face. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Think good not inside now some yes. Mother be this Ramien. Help some good Kyrgan Hunter teach him."
** (41091) Kyrgan heads inside leaving Ramien with his mother. **
** (41015) Father looks very, very sick. He coughs and isn't well. **
(41015) Father: Kyrgan . . . it's time.
** (41091) Kyrgan kneels beside his father .... Kyrgan come." **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Time?"
** (41061) Ramian got nothing from that except mother, Ramien, and hunter. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "No father be strong fight still illness."
(41015) Father: Don't worry, your . . .* cough, cough!* old man still . . . *cough!*
(41015) Father: It's time . . . for you to . . . *cough!*
(41015) Father: Take a wife.
** (41091) Kyrgan looks at his father. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan young much. Thought wife time years now."
(41015) Father: You must, or Jubal the Ugly One will take over tribe.
** (41091) Kyrgan frowns **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Stinky one. Not be leader."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Stong him yes. Smell coming from far."
(41015) Father: He has claimed Dian, your favorite from childhood.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Chasken! How claim. Not know. Jubal too old."
(41015) Father: But he's strong. You fight Jubal, get her back.
** (41091) Kyrgan is frowning **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Yes. Jubal strong know. Kyrgan find way."
(41015) DM: You here an ugly voice. "It's him, he's come to gloat!"
** (41091) Kyrgan looks at his father .... "Time surprise yes?" **
(41015) Jubal: Sokah, you weak old man!
Sorry I don't know what /me's is!
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan need go see Jubal"
** (41015) Jubal 's voice is deep. **
** (41091) Kyrgan stands and opens the opening to the yurt and stares at Jubal hard. **
(41015) Jubal: Oh, I see the welp is back!
(41091) Kyrgan: "Back in time good."
** (41015) Jubal looks like he is a cross between an ogre and an orc. But he has three eyes, a misshapen nose from when you hit him before, and extra long tusks. He is also as strong as a bear and his ears are cut, but healed over. But the cut is still there. **
** (41015) Jubal 's eyes as you remember. Red and ugly. **
** (41061) Ramian stands off with Kyrgan's mother and wonders how something can be so ugly without hurting all over. **
(41015) Jubal: Well, Kyrgan. I have settled the old score between us and claimed Dian as my own.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Time stop this. You not good Dian. Kyrgan know be this."
(41015) Jubal: Oh, a challenge? Are you going to challenge me welp?
** (41091) Kyrgan nods **
** (41015) Jubal pushes you like the bully you remember. You fall back into the door of your father's yurt. **
** (41091) Kyrgan regains balance and kicks at his leg. **
** (41015) Jubal trips and falls. His buddies laugh at him. **
** (41015) Jubal looks at you like he's angry and ready to kill. **
** (41061) Ramian just watches the scene silently, keeping his arms crossed and his eyebrow raised. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan not like claim make you."
(41015) Jubal: Fool! You dare challenge Jubal! After this, Jubal will make Zug Zug with Dian and be Chief!
(41091) Kyrgan: "You not chief kind. Need more than strong to be leader."
** (41061) Ramian leans over to Kyrgan's mother and asks her what Zug Zug means. **
** (41061) Ramian looks from Kyrgan's mother to Jubal and shudders. **
** (41015) Jubal 's friends laugh again. **
(41015) Jubal: ENOUGH! There's only one way to settle this! A blood Challenge!
** (41015) Jubal throws down his cape to Kyrgan. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Yes .... not want but see need."
** (41091) Kyrgan responds in kind **
(41015) Jubal: We meet in arena, three days after.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Very well."
** (41015) Jubal turns and walks with all the dignity an ugly orc can muster. **
(41164) Jornundr (enter): 20:19
(41015) Jubal: (( Hi! ))
(41164) Jornundr (exit): 20:20
(41061) Ramian: ((Wat.))
(41015) DM: (( *Facepalm* How rude! ))
(41015) DM: The orcs who are supportive of your father looks at you, Kyrgan.
** (41061) Ramian watches the hideous orc leave, the amount of ugly on that one so incredibly large that it make his face hurt. **
** (41091) Kyrgan looks back at them .... "Need preparations made." **
(41015) DM: One of them, your childhood friend Lorgan, comes to you, Kyrgan.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Lorgan. Good see."
(41015) Lorgan: Kyrgan, he's been trying to rule the roost since you left. *in Orcish.*
** (41091) Kyrgan sorta growls and shakes his head. "Not know. Time make right." **
** (41015) Lorgan looks like he is wearing the trappings of a shaman. He is even wearing a cape with a wolf's head. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Lorgan learn much see. Good you."
(41015) Lorgan: He stole Dian the Beautiful two months ago, and made claim. He did it to smoke you out . . . but then your father got sick. * in orckish.*
** (41015) Lorgan nods. **
(41015) Lorgan: I learned much from Heth the Wise.
** (41015) Lorgan turns to Ramien. **
(41015) Lorgan: And who is this? Your sword friend?
(41091) Kyrgan: "When father sick come? Think bad thing now."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Be Ramien this, meat human place. Help good him. Strong arm much."
(41061) Ramian: "I tend to prefer a bow, though."
** (41015) Lorgan offers his hand to you, Ramien, and suddenly speaks perfect common. "Hello, Ramien, it's so good to meet you." **
(41061) Ramian: ((Oh, I didn't understand that. Nevermind.))
(41015) DM: But its with a slight orcish accent.
** (41061) Ramian shakes his hand. "Ramian Jaivona... And likewise." **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Lorgan good talk human."
(41176) Jornundr (enter): 20:29
(41015) Lorgan: Well, when you travel with Heth the Wise, you learn to speak to others. You should have seen the Lady Allustriel when she saw us.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Who she?"
(41015) Lorgan: The Leader of Silverymoon, my friend.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Heth go many place."
(41091) Kyrgan: "You go? Much learn think."
** (41015) Lorgan nods. **
** (41015) Lorgan turns back to Ramien and speaks in Common. **
(41015) Lorgan: I suppose you will be Kyrgan's second?
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan learn human woman fall down much. Not know why."
(41061) Ramian: "Second?"
** (41015) Lorgan chuckles at that. **
** (41091) Kyrgan turns to Ramian **
(41015) Lorgan: Yes. His second. Normally, it would be me. But however . . . duties.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Think be good second?"
(41015) Lorgan: That depends on what he chooses.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Yes."
** (41061) Ramian raises an eyebrow. **
(41061) Ramian: "I've got no idea what you two are talking about."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Ramian the big ugly one you saw try steal chief. Kyrgan say no. Now make challenge. So need second."
(41015) Lorgan: Oh, it's simple *in Common* You are going to be Kyrgan's second while I finish my apprenticeship with the Wise One.
(41061) Ramian: "Ah... So it's a bit different than duels I'm used to."
(41061) Ramian: From*
(41091) Kyrgan: "Dual?"
** (41015) Lorgan turns to Kyrgan **
(41015) Lorgan: There is much preparations to make. In three days, you fight Jubal, the Ugly One.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Yes. Know that."
** (41015) Lorgan turns to Ramien and speaks in common again. **
(41015) Lorgan: While Kyrgan prepares for the Blood Challenge, you stay with me. Oh, and my sister, Sari.
** (41061) Ramian suddenly has a bad feeling. **
(41015) Lorgan: Come, Ramien. A friend of Kyrgan's is my friend.
(41061) Ramian: "Alright. It'd give someone a chance to tell me about this challenge."
** (41061) Ramian nods and is set to follow Lorgan when he leaves. **
(41015) Lorgan: Oh it's simple. They both fight each other in nothing but their loin cloths with knives in an attempt to draw first blood.
** (41015) Lorgan opens his yurt. **
** (41061) Ramian raises an eyebrow. "Do I have to wear a loin cloth?" **
(41015) Lorgan: No.
(41015) Lorgan: The seconds are there to make sure no one dies.
(41061) Ramian: "That's good. It'd be drafty." He says, stepping into the yurt.
** (41091) Kyrgan goes off to do whatever preparations are needed **
(41015) DM: You see Sari, some one very gorgeous for an orc. Everything about her is wonderful looking. Her skin is smooth and raidiant, and she looks at you with eyes of beautiful dark jade. Her hair is tied in a long pony tail, and she has an angelic smile.
(41015) DM: She is sitting on some furs.
** (41061) Ramian suddenly has a very bad feeling. **
(41015) Lorgan: Sari, this is Kyrgan.
** (41015) Lorgan to Ramien **
(41015) Lorgan: Ramien, this is my sister, Sari. She's not as beautiful as Dian but she's all I have.
(41015) DM: Sari blushes at the sight of you.
** (41061) Ramian nods his head politely to Sari. **
(41061) Ramian: "Nice to meet you."
(41015) DM: Sari speaks in orcish.
(41015) Lorgan: She says she's pleased to meet you.
** (41061) Ramian keeps his hands at rest behind his back, offering a polite smile. **
(41015) DM: Sari pours what looks to be milk and offers it to you. "Karku?"
(41015) DM: Lorgan explains to you that means "milk"
(41061) Ramian: "Oh, sure."
** (41061) Ramian takes the cup of milk and sips it. "What's it from?" **
(41015) DM: Lorgan explains that its yak's milk.
** (41061) Ramian nods. "That's what I thought." **
(41015) DM: :Transition to . . .
(41015) DM: EXT: ORC VILLAGE, THREE DAYS LATER -- DAY.
(41015) DM: The day has arrived. You are at the arena. The arena is built of long bone carved from some beast Ramien doesn't recognize.
(41015) DM: Jubal is standing ready, half-naked in a loin cloth that looks like a male bikini brief.
(41177) No Name (enter): 20:51
(41015) DM: He's still strong as a bear, with bulging, powerful muscles, almost built like a Sumo Wrestler.
** (41061) Ramian diverts his eyes from the overly hideous orc in bikini briefs. **
** (41091) Kyrgan enters dressed in a simple loincloth looking much leaner than Jubal. **
(41015) DM: Dian the Beautiful, who is strikingly more beautiful than Sari, stands at the side, looking to Kyrgan.
** (41061) Ramian just thanks Mielikki that she isn't fawning over him. **
(41015) Dian: Kyrgan, I really hope you win. Jubal is very cruel.
(41177) No Name: Disconnecting from server...
(41177) No Name (exit): 20:54
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan come stop Jubal. Try make all right. Need focus now. Dian know Kyrgan always like."
** (41015) Dian smiles sweetly at Kyrgan, blushing a deep red. **
** (41061) Ramian stands off to the side, or wherever the second is supposed to stand, watching the exchange. **
(41015) DM: A powerful orc enters into the center of the area.
(41015) DM: "The challenger and Jubal will enter the ring.
(41015) DM: Jubal walks into the ring, standing at his appointed place.
** (41091) Kyrgan enters and takes his place. I'm trying to look out of place and unprepared on purpose. **
(41015) DM: The Orc then says: "The Seconds will approach each other."
(41015) DM: Sari pushes Ramien, and speaks in a little common; "He mean you."
** (41091) Kyrgan is looking at Jubal and studying him intently **
** (41061) Ramian uses the push to give himself forward momentum, walking toward Jubal's second. **
(41015) DM: The second, a mean looking orc but not unlike a high school bully, grins at you, creasing his smile only on his right side.
(41091) Kyrgan: [1d100+21+30] => [52,21,30] = (103)
(41015) DM: The orc declares: "This is a knife fight, according to our laws. Only to first blood, you must stop one or the other from going to far.
** (41061) Ramian nods his head to the announcer orc, keeping an eye on Jubal's second. **
(41015) DM: The Orc then says, "The seconds will return to their places in the ring. And the challengers will now approach each other."
** (41061) Ramian returns to his place in the ring. **
** (41091) Kyrgan walks forward with knife at my side. **
(41015) DM: The orc pulls out a handkerchief of home spun cloth, the cloth waving in the air for a few seconds. But to you, Kyrgan, it seems like an eternity.
(41015) DM: This is a challenge, to the Blood!
** (41091) Kyrgan is trying to keep focus **
(41015) DM: He lets go of the cloth, and retreats out of your way. The cloth falls to the ground . . .
(41015) DM: Declare your action, Kyrgan.
(41091) Kyrgan: When the cloth falls Kyrgan begins to move as fast as he can to keep away from the brute strength
** (41061) Ramian watches the fight carefully, sure that someone is going to cheat at some point. **
(41015) DM: Jubal holds his knife point side down.
(41015) DM: Okay, Initiative.
Jubal's initiative = added to list at init count 53 !
(41015) DM: Jubal's initiative = [1d100+1] => [52,1] = (53)
(41015) DM: [1d20+1] => [20,1] = (21)
(41015) DM: (sorry. ))
(41091) Kyrgan: [2d10+5]
(41091) Kyrgan: [2d10+5] => [1,5,5] = (11)
(41015) DM: name Jubal
** (41015) Jubal rushes at you [1d00-15-12] => [1,-15,-12] = (-26) **
(41015) Jubal: And he misses!
** (41091) Kyrgan spins away in a sudden move **
** (41015) Jubal stumbles and tumbles, but regains his footing, and his knife. **
** (41061) Ramian watches the horrible dagger strike, wondering how someone can be so clumsy with a knife. **
(41015) Jubal: initiative again.
(41015) Jubal: [2d10+1] => [9,9,1] = (19)
(41091) Kyrgan: (( +5 or +3? ))
(41091) Kyrgan: [2d10+5] => [8,8,5] = (21)
(41015) Jubal: Okay, what do you do this time?
** (41091) Kyrgan tries to use the larger mans bulk to his advantage and takes a slash at an open area ... but still ready to mve away. **
(41015) Jubal: (( Make an attack move ))
** (41015) Jubal tries to run at Kyrgan, to stab him in the collar bone. [1d100-15-12] => [28,-15,-12] = (1) **
** (41015) Jubal misses you and trips over an imaginary tortoise, he falls flat on his face and drops his knife. **
(41091) Kyrgan: (( not sure what to roll for this attack ))
(41015) Jubal: (( you roll your dagger attack.
** (41061) Ramian watches the clumsy strikes, trying to resist the urge to just break out laughing. **
(41015) Jubal: (( Kyrgan, you have a +5 dagger attack. ))
(41015) Jubal: (( so that's 1d100+5))
(41091) Kyrgan: (( I don't see the dagger attack anywhere, sorry ))
(41015) Jubal: (( I forgot to add it to your attacks, I didn't think we were going to do this.
(41015) Jubal: (( it's +34 total, Kyrgan. ))
(41091) Kyrgan: [1d100+5+29] => [33,5,29] = (67)
** (41015) Jubal somehow avoided Kyrgan's attack, gets up and dispenses with the knife and gets ready to use his bare hands. **
(41015) Jubal: initiative
** (41091) Kyrgan keeps moving to stay out of his reach **
(41091) Kyrgan: [2d10+5] => [8,1,5] = (14)
(41015) Jubal: [2d10+1] => [6,3,1] = (10)
(41015) Jubal: (( Kyrgan, what do you do? ))
** (41091) Kyrgan oooks for an opening to strike quickly yet give him room to escape ..... (( slash and move )) **
(41209) John (enter): 21:22
** (41015) Jubal runs after you again, attempting to put you in a bear hug. [1d100+30] => [31,30] = (61) **
** (41091) Kyrgan ducks and comes out behind him and then slashes **
(41015) Jubal: (( attack roll? ))
(41091) Kyrgan: [1d100+5+29] => [6,5,29] = (40)
(41209) John (exit): 21:25
** (41015) Jubal misses as Kyrgan slips out of his hold and Kyrgan misses. **
** (41015) Jubal looks very angry. "Stand still, you snake!" **
** (41091) Kyrgan keeps moving aware that staying still will be his downfall **
(41015) Jubal: *Initative!*
(41015) Jubal: [2d10+1] => [6,8,1] = (15)
(41091) Kyrgan: [2d10+5] => [8,9,5] = (22)
(41015) Jubal: * first again. *
** (41091) Kyrgan suddenly stops and shifts and slashes at the left side of Jubal .... still ready to spin and escape **
(41091) Kyrgan: [1d100+5+29] => [61,5,29] = (95)
(41015) Jubal: * that's actually a hit!*
** (41015) Jubal rushes at you [1d100+20] => [64,20] = (84) **
(41015) Jubal: Jubal grabs you, but you slashed at him, cutting him and letting out a sliver of blood. Jubal looks and YELLS! "YEEEEAARRRGGHH!"
** (41061) Ramian watches the dagger slice into Jubal and gets ready... **
(41091) Kyrgan: "First Blood, Jubal!"
** (41091) Kyrgan keeps trying to break free and defend himself. **
(41015) DM: Jubal tries crush the life out of you, and . . . his second rushes in to separate him from you!
** (41061) Ramian runs in to assist Jubal's second in the separating of the bear hug. **
(41015) DM: The orc comes on stage. "This blood challenge is over. According to the rules of our tribe, Jubal, you must relinquish your claim of Dian to Kyrgan."
(41015) DM: Jubal looks at Kyrgan, with evil defiance. "I so yield!"
** (41091) Kyrgan is trying to use a knee to good advantage if it goes any longer. **
** (41091) Kyrgan keeps his rage from boiling over and responds. "I accept. I Kyrgan so make a claim to Dian the Fair according to my father's wishes." **
(41015) DM: The orc then says . . . "Then it is decided, Dian the Beautiful One is now betrothed to Kyrgan, the Son of the Chief!"
(41015) DM: Jubal looks at Kyrgan with evil eyes. "This isn't over, Chief's son!"
** (41091) Kyrgan almost has a look of ..... 'did I really say that' **
** (41061) Ramian certainly didn't say it for him. **
(41015) DM: Jubal the Ugly One walks out of the Arena, in shame and in burning hatred.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Jubal, I have no reason to think ill of you. But this I promise, if you try to disrupt the clan I will seek you out even after my death if needed."
** (41061) Ramian stares at Kyrgan in mild disbelief. **
(41015) DM: Dian hugs Kyrgan.
(41091) Kyrgan: "ooof."
(41015) DM: You've won, Kyrgan. You've won!
(41091) Kyrgan: "uh errr .... well met Dian."
(41091) Kyrgan: "Yes. I have won. But Jubal I fear will not let it stand."
(41015) DM: He has a long memory.
** (41061) Ramian continues staring at Kyrgan in disbelief. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Why you stare me Ramian?"
(41015) DM: The crowd cheers . . .
(41091) Kyrgan: "Loincloth be on right no?"
(41061) Ramian: ((Is he talking in common or orcish? :P))
(41091) Kyrgan: (( common or at least trying ))
(41061) Ramian: ((I mean, before. When he wasn't... Y'know.))
(41091) Kyrgan: (( his challenge to Jubal was probably orcish so you only got the non-verbal ))
(41061) Ramian: ((Oh. I thought he suddenly learned common or something. Ignore me then. :P))
(41091) Kyrgan: (( he is slowly getting better at common though ))
(41015) DM: It is time for jubilation and feasting.
(41015) DM: (( Yeah, the more he's exposed to common, the more I increase it. ))
(41091) Kyrgan: "Time celebrate be now."
(41015) DM: Sari looks at Ramien, with a blush.
(41061) Ramian: "Celebrate?" He asks inquisitively.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Food Yak beer party you say no?"
(41061) Ramian: "Food sounds nice, actually..."
(41015) DM: :transition to . . .
(41091) Kyrgan: "Dance time too."
(41015) DM: EXT: ORC VILLAGE -- 3 DAYS AFTER -- DAY.
(41015) DM: Ramien is preparing to leave, and Dian and Kyrgan are holding each other.
(41015) DM: Sari looks to Ramien, and then turns to Kyrgan.
(41015) Sari: Kyrgan, why does Ramien have to go?
** (41061) Ramian loads stuff onto his horse. **
** (41091) Kyrgan responds in orcish .... "Ramian is a good friend for one of human kind. But he does not make our place home and needs to return to his kin." **
(41015) Sari: I wish he'd stay. I could bare him many sons.
** (41061) Ramian has absolutely no idea what they're saying, but hoping they aren't talking about him. **
** (41091) Kyrgan starts laughing ..... "Yes I am sure you could Sari. He is good one for human kind. Human different. Not like Orc clan. Female also ask if want have relation." **
(41015) Dian: They do now? You just tell them you're betrothed to me.
** (41015) Dian kisses Kyrgan on the cheek. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Kyrgan tell them Dian. Human women funny keep falling down when meet me."
** (41015) Sari looks longingly at Ramien. **
(41015) Sari: Most of the time, humans want to kill us. But he's different.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Maybe you tell him Sari. Go ahead, want to see what Ramian will say."
(41015) Sari: He's kind and gentle, and wonderful. I'd love to bare him many sons.
** (41015) Sari nods. **
** (41061) Ramian suddenly has a bad feeling again. **
** (41015) Sari walks over to Ramien, and speaks in broken common. "Sari wishes you not to go. Stay with Sari. You aren't like other humans." **
** (41091) Kyrgan is smiling as he watches **
** (41061) Ramian looks up from what he's doing at Sari, and then looks over at Kyrgan, then back at Sari. "I have to, unfortunately, got important things to take care of back home. Like my wolf. And bad people." **
(41015) Sari: Sari can bare many sons for you. Only you.
** (41061) Ramian gives Kyrgan a "help me" look. **
** (41091) Kyrgan whispers what Ramian is saying to Dian **
** (41015) Dian gives a bemused look to Ramien. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "She like, Ramian. Not know why. I try tell why go you."
(41015) Dian: Tell him that Sari considers herself betrothed to him.
** (41061) Ramian is very clearly doomed. **
(41091) Kyrgan: (( orcish)) "You think that is a good idea?"
(41015) Dian: It will make a fine good joke. On him.
** (41015) Dian mischieviously smiles. **
(41015) Dian: Plus, it's the truth.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Ohhhhhhhhh ..... haha."
(41091) Kyrgan: Ramian .... uh Sari think she make good wife you."
(41061) Ramian: "I.. Er... That's very tempting, but... I'll be away for a very, very long time, so it'd probably be better if you found... Someone else? I'm sure there's plenty of nice orc men to choose from in your... Wait... What?"
** (41061) Ramian is trying to be polite as possible. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "She think she betrothed you."
** (41061) Ramian stares at Kyrgan. **
** (41091) Kyrgan shrugs **
** (41061) Ramian looks like his brain shut off. **
(41015) Dian: Sari looks at Ramien pleedingly while Dian has this big smile.
(41091) Kyrgan: (( orcish )) "Sari, Ramian needs to go to his home so he can watch over the land there like good orcish ranger. Maybe he come back soon."
(41015) Sari: I'll wait for him, then. However, if he doesn't come back in a year, I'll go to him.
(41091) Kyrgan: "Very good. I think that good plan."
** (41061) Ramian is screwed... **
(41015) DM: Dian gives Kyrgan a goodbye kiss.
(41015) DM: Dian then speaks in orcish, "until you return, my love."
(41091) Kyrgan: "I come home I promise. I'm sure you will make big plans for us."
(41015) DM: Dian pleasantly smiles.
** (41061) Ramian stares between Dian and Kyrgan. **
** (41091) Kyrgan takes a bone necklace from his neck and places it over Dian's **
(41091) Kyrgan: "There. Bond strong now. Kyrgan still need learn from odd human ones."
** (41061) Ramian finally snaps out of it and continues loading his horse. **
(41015) DM: Dian then says, "Becareful of the humans, love. Sometimes they attack us for no good reason."
(41091) Kyrgan: "I know. But they think it is our lesser brethren and not know difference."
(41015) DM: Meanwhile, one of the guards comes to you.
** (41015) Guard goes up to Ramien and says, "Guess what?" **
** (41015) Guard smiles. **
** (41061) Ramian looks up at the guard. "What?" **
(41015) Guard: "I to be your Bodyguard." * he slaps you on the back as if you were his drinking buddy.*
(41061) Ramian: "My bodyguard?" He asks, trying not to fly flat on his face.
(41015) Guard: Ohs yes. Be your Bodyguard. Go everywhere you go.
** (41015) Guard grins at you largely! **
** (41061) Ramian scratches his head. "Who told you to guard me?" **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Guess."
(41015) Guard: Yous don't remember? Kyrgan, he not remember.
** (41061) Ramian looks at Kyrgan. **
(41091) Kyrgan: "It shame he not know."
** (41061) Ramian rubs the back of his neck. "Was it Sari?" **
(41091) Kyrgan: "Hmmmm, not know be sure. But you not remember you now trib member here. So tribe guard body now."
(41061) Ramian: "When did that happen...?"
(41091) Kyrgan: "In Feast time."
(41061) Ramian: "I must've drank too much..."
(41091) Kyrgan: "You brave much some. Walk through fire good."
(41061) Ramian: "So where's your bodyguard?"
** (41091) Kyrgan points to you. **

(41091) Kyrgan: "Can't all bring."

*blink* What do you want a reply to?

There was no request for feedback, request for advice, all you offered was a campaign log as best I read it.

"Small beings can have small wisdom," the dragon said. "And small wise beings are better than small fools. Listen: Wisdom is caring for afterwards."
"Caring for afterwards ...? Ker repeated this without understanding.
"After action, afterwards," the dragon said. "Choose the afterwards first, then the action. Fools choose action first."

Agreed. I'll admit that I stopped reading about a quarter of the way through.

...

Elton, I'd recommend, in future, that you break up these kinds of posts and include them in somewhat shorter entries for a scroll like this.

Heh, I didn't even reach that far. No offense, EltonJ. I second Sage's suggestion.

Every beginning has an end.

I think this is also in the wrong sub-category. We have an Adventuring
sub-category under the Forgotten Realms Journal main category. That's where I usualy look for the campaign logs I'm following.
