Get Ivo to go in the Goblins head then we feed it to the wolves... hmm can I just eat any cadavers in Wild Shape?

Are you sure? I thought you need meat to make em humble. We have no meats.

What magic is this. Frozen in time people can discuss strategy. Evil magic no doubt. That should be stomped out

Also I'm taking Speak with Animals*, that needs no component(s)

*when we finally get some kip.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 12:56

Holy Shit... at later levels I think I'll be able to really talk with Krung.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

Speak with Plants (Lvl3)

You imbue Plants within 30 feet of you with limited sentience and animation, giving them the ability to communicate with you and follow your simple commands. You can question Plants about events in the spell's area within the past day, gaining information about creatures that have passed, weather, and other circumstances.

He'll be a plant, if we let his eyes grow a bit, right?

Zardoz · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 12:57

In theory, I could animate Krung into making Shuu do stuff.

That would take too long. Stick to sketching

Still a bit standoffish as he's not used to company anyway but he trusts everyone... but is disturbed a little by Ivo

Ivo has prophetic dreams all the time - they're a direct message from Xunt, and so he takes them seriously. He's happy with the party, and hopes they can continue fighting evil together! Clearly we need to keep looking for Gundran and Sildar, we cannot simply leave them to their fate.

Sadly Ivo's psychicicity only runs one way. He can't yet read thoughts.

Can he force them to scream out the answers we require?

Well, I guess he can start breaking toes with his hammer, but Ivo's not a torturer. Does not Schuu have magical bardic charming spells?

OR now that Zardoth can wild shape, he can turn into a rat and scope out the area across the bridge without arousing any suspicion.

Not a torturer, but you have the best intimidate stat.

further thunk:

5. Investigate the barrel/box logo.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 15:25

I'd imagine our little Goblin friend will talk freely once he wakes up and finds his Boss dead and and being partially worn by a Axe wielding Dwarf and the biggest wolf reduced to a pile of ash.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 15:28

And my fantastic barding and charisma will help too.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 15:29

Unless there's something even larger in the cave

If Ermintrude is helping with the intimidation in a way that makes sense, then yes! And I think standing behind you wearing the tooth of his boss makes some pretty sound sense.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 15:32

I also vote that Squirt burns his current dice and buys some new ones.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 15:35

I have sets here if you'd like a new batch!

They're a bit better this week.

Well, Ermintrude smells like an animal, Shuu has a pet potato, Myptik tried to make conversation and I accidentally burnt his sleeve off so I have to be nice to him. Ivo is literally alien to him.

Natural > Unnatural (For Zardoth)

Let's just take our relationship one step at a time x

Squirt · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 6515

Fair enough, I did want Ivo to be a bit disconcerting - hence no proficiencies in social abilities, even though his charisma is very high.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Wed Nov 25, 2020 17:51

If it's any conciliation your social standing in the party will improve and mine will drop when I start spending most of my time growling, coughing up fur and licking my balls.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 6:56

I take it when you are aminal you can't cast your little spells?

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 9:21

Not until later levels. BUT by going the circle of the moon route I get more flexibility shifting back and forth.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 9:34

Btw DNDBeyond using peopl who aren't Squirt (cos he's already done it), to use XP for levelling, edit character, click "home", click big "?" and change "advancement type" to XP. Then when looking at your character you can click on their name and "manage XP" to add. You should have 325 total, or 25 over level 2.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 9:35

Myptik needs to pick up a few boxes of these for when he’s exploring dark tunnels with us.

Ah remember that wizard that we're not allowed to talk about or to until they've woken up in the goblin cave in another 3 weeks?

By that logic you can’t talk to the rest of the party until Monday 7:30pm!

Check and mate my dear little fellow. Stick to the bludgeoning, my smooth-brained friend.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:03

We've got a lot of Goblins to bother before we hit level 3!

Dimrill · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:08

Christ it's draughty in here. Did someone leave the door open?

6. What about that forg?! It was oddly described rather than just "some tresha".

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:13

Can Shuu inspect stuff for magicalness?

I can viciously mock it.

Dimrill · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:31

I thought some stenching human mentioned they could investigate stuff for the price of a pearl. But they're just standing in the middle of the cavern looking like this.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:33

I'm not sure if its for the price of a pearl, or just they need a pearl. (it doesnt mention it being consumed, like some otherthings do)

Thanks to Xunt granting me the gift of Eldritch Sight, I can detect magic as much as i want. I'm not sure it tells me what the magic is, but i can tell if there is magic or not.

Zardoz · **Posted:** Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:50

Good.

IT'S MY PEARL! HE'S NOT HAVING IT.

Unless the frog thing is decent and I'll consider swapsies.

We need to brainstorm a name for our collective endeavour. My two suggestions:

1. Damage Inc. (featuring Ivo Zook on background fireworks)

and

2. Nick or Knacker Goblins.

I can provide one, but you'll have to give me at least 30 minutes buildup at my age.

Let Zooky do his Eldritch sight next week and see if there's a glimmer, if there is we'll either find out at a Magic Shop or for the Return of the Myp* to find out x

*Well I tried to tell you so (yes, I did)
