Yulya is still struggling with the ingredients. but ok 5x10 doses it is. not cheap but we can afford it. Alice needs to work out what to buy and pay for it shes the only one with gp left
regarding potions it says we need mandrake. if we can rely on finding it later we dont need to buy it yet. for syrup we still have the honeycombs.
about making poison where should they do it? i doubt thhe guild kitchen is a good place for that and i guess they need a fireplace?

[Alice]

Yeah I actually wodered about that.
We probably neither should make poison in the guild kitchen nor in our room or Freya will kick us out for real

Also I've been wondering - the herbalism kit uses INT which is not good for me. Making potions is also an INT thing. Remember I not only have 9INT but also disadvantage

That just means your DC for the poison will be low, perhaps DC9? That's not great.

Don't worry about that for a healing potion, there's no save; you drink it, you get healed.

[Alice]

That's not great at all considering we just paid 35gp for the ingredients!

[Wofl]

Just glad I'm not paying for it, I was like... wow, that's a lot of gold. I'm not here to argue with Joy but I guess she's right that we need every advantage with the dragon.

[Alice]

It's still way less that the wizard cleaning fee. But the lolibank is emptying...

Well, the shitty DC does make sense. Do we want to live in a world where a dumb alien and a cat can craft high-level poisons out of household ingredients?

I'd guess dragons are immune to poison?

Imagine the anticlimactic battle if we throw it a poisoned bait and it quietly dies in its den within a few days like a slug poisoned by snail pellets.

>defund the Alice
lol

>dragon pellets
maybe that's why there were no dragons seen for a long time. they were all poisoned.

also fuck this, our funds are completely different once more.
inventory says 1254.5 sp
Joy says 1164 sp
where did the 90.5 sp go?
ohyeah our math genius did something dumb again and forgot to pay the glass vials for 10gp

>I'd guess dragons are immune to poison?

Only green dragons are immune by default to poison. White Dragons would be immune to cold, Red dragons to fire, Black dragons to acid, and so on.

The small amount of poison in bait would probably not make a huge difference even if the dragon did eat.



Something tells me the dragon wouldn't just eat a desiccated chunk of meat meadly thown in the dirt near its den.

I will rule that my numbers are valid.

It doesn't matter if the dragon falls for the bait and eats it or not. It will eventually want to get rid of the rotting carcass and pick it up or kick it away, releasing a cloud or ricin dust, toxic enough to wipe out an entire city.

[Wofl]

I'll give you 1 in 20 chance of success and 7 in 20 chance of horrific bad luck.

See? Don't ever say I'm not fair.
