The next couple of weeks, game on hold

Shouldn't he slowly descend back to the earth, THEN cancel his flying spell? I mean, unless you also cast "feather fall" you pretty much lose control when you cancel the flying spell. Wouldn't want to see you go SPLAT! ;-)

:-D

Salix listens to Harp. The grace of Heironious has seen to our food needs, indeed, he thinks to himself somewhat indignantly. Heironious's temporary intervention in the food chain is but a convenience compared to the variety and bounty of the food Obad-Hai provides to all of us every day. How often *His* grace is overlooked. Even if hunting weren't an option, Obad-Hai would provide nourishment to sustain them. Salix could pray for the divine blessing to make but a single berry sustain a man for a day. Still, Harp was right and Heironious had provided for them on this trip. It would be childish to argue the point. If Obad-Hai was tolerant of anything it was having his gifts taken for granted by most. Only the druids and certain rangers gave true credit where it was due.

As the acid-blood of the beast burns the ground and Salix disappoints Surin's hopes of treasure, he adds, "I guess the meat wouldn't be very sustaining. I should have suspected as much. The creature is clearly not a natural animal."

Salix gathers his things quickly and spends the rest of the few moments available while the others pack examining the beast closely. It truly wasn't a natural beast. Everything about it felt wrong, somehow. The complete lack of prey in this area and the now obvious signs of destruction on the forest that this creature had wrought - single handedly at that - made it clear that this creature was not a thing of harmony. It was a jarring disturbance to the greensong. He would have to remember that.

As the group breaks camp and heads out, Salix takes careful note of all the signs of this beast. He does not want to be surprised by one again.

Actually, look up the specs on the fly spell. When cancelled or dispelled, the subject descends at 60' per round for 1d6 rounds. You only fall if you run into an antimagic field.

Subject The next couple of weeks

As some of you know about 4 weeks ago I herniated the disk at C6/C7. My right arm has been at about 50% since then with the index and middle finger partially numb. I have been on fentanyl and Percocet for the pain. That has allowed me to work and participate in the games but not drive.

I met with the neurosurgeon for the second time today and we are going to go ahead with surgury, probably on next Tuesday. They will go in from the front and remove the disk and replace it with a bone chip that will eventually fuse the two vertabra together. The operation takes about 1-1/2 hours and I will be in the hospital overnight. I will be taking off 1-1/2 to 2 weeks of work.

I am not sure how this will effect the games I am in. Eric's Modern d20 game has not started yet and I am not sure when it will start.

The game that I am running will be put on hold, probably until at least Sept. 19. There is a chance that I will be able to start it up before that, but I am not counting on it.

In Ty's game, I do not know when my new character will be worked in but I am going to contact Ty about how I am going to handle it.

I will let everyone know when I am back.

thanks

Harp will ride through the day, paying attention to anyone whose armor was damaged in the fight. That night, he will ask for the ability to mend and fix items (0 level spells to Mending, 2 2nd level to Make Whole). The following morning, he approachs those who had had items damaged by the Landshark (Mund and Ran) and offer to fix their armor so it is back to its previous condition. Harp will talk to Ragnar about the same thing, but will defer to the dwarfs own ability to repair his armor.

OOC: Mark, it is bad form to have Harp and Ragnar discuss co-ordinating spells? Harp would know how the Order looks on that type of action. If it is OK for them to talk, I will role play that with Jason.

Let me know if there is anything I can do, other than donating body parts.

Harp and the rest of the group will do a little sight seeing with Salix and Mund as guides.

Subject Sharing prayers

Being from a miltary order they would have no problem working out things like what prayers to take. Harp might defer to Ragnar since the dwarf is a higher level cleric.
