Nah, there would be no game. I can't imagine keeping track of all of that stuff. I'm glad you're doing that.
On another note, in the year 2025 AI is still unable to combine my kitsune mask with the wofl cloak. It's impossible. Gotta take the mask off again.

Btw, can I actually use that Hunter's bow? Am I proficient with it? I guess I can't use that Ranger magic because I can't use any magic. But would it give any benefits over my shortbow?

[Joy]

The bow might be a little better range, but the ranger features wouldn't work with you as it didn't with them, the bandit wasn't able to use the feature either.

Yulya's 10 questions are going to take way longer than I thought, it's fun though.

[Τamamo]

We forgot something important - Cat threw the whistle over the wall after searching the druid. As we said - we won't make the same mistake again!

[Joy]

I asked what happened to the whistle when Alice failed to put it on a stray rabbit.

[Ashley] Uh, aren't we going in? That's not really the best place to put it. Throw it off a cliff or into the heart of Mt. Doom, not where we're going? Now we have to find the thing.

[Τamamo]

Inside is where they expect their men to be. One bandit escaped and likely went back in too warn the others anyway.
We could not have taken the whistle with us as we cannot go anyway farther from our tent in this difficult terrain. All were needed in the time that has passed. Putting it on an animal would have been perfect but tossing it back in was the best available option. And we need more rest, we cannot go in there like this. Yulya has no MP at all, Alice is lacking a ki point.

[Joy]

[Ashley] I think we should full rest then storm the castle.

[Kashtan]

yes we think so too

Yulya casts zone of truth causing a 30 foot zone affecting everyone within.

[CHA vs DC15 1d20+0M,+2F=HIDDEN]

excuse me but thats not how it works

You create a magical zone that guards against deception in a 15-foot-radius sphere centered on a point of your choice within range. Until the spell ends, a creature that enters the spell's area for the first time on a turn or starts its turn there must make a Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, a creature can't speak a deliberate lie while in the radius. You know whether each creature succeeds or fails on its saving throw.

Yulya knows whether the spell affects them or not otherwise it would be next to useless

[Joy]

:o

Okay, but I don't know how useful it is anyway. I also in some cases rolled to see if Yulya could tell if they were telling the truth regardless and the ones she succedded I stated in a couple cases, the ones she failed and they lied or if they were telling the truth anyway then I didn't state, so that means, of the ones they succeeded, they could be telling you don't know unless stated.

In that case you can't ask the same question again or the same save result will apply.

Will update

[Kashtan]

we didnt expect much from the answers but the girl managing to avoid the spell for half the questions was disappointing. its stil useful to know which answers can be trusted and which are questionable. guess its up to Ashley now to squeeze more info out of her. Ashleys opinion on the whole situation would be apppreciated. You know Yulya and if there are no fundamental objections shed release the guy with his brooch. one less problem without heads tossed over the palisades. if he gets the fuck out instead of returning even better. but lets hear what else Danielle has to say.

Yulya is getting worked up with this though she knows her confidence is just show or wishful thinking. we have no idea how we could possibly clear that multi-level dungeon. not even how we can get inside.

[Alice]

Yeah not a lot of new info. I can't think of any other questions either. But I feel we'll hear a bit more from Danielle with Ashley's 'help'

[Joy]

Not waiting for anyone, Bear was busy working kn his car

[Kashtan]

its fine take your time

[Τamamo]

Wait what?
We killed the good guy and the others are also just some traders and basically all the enemies we fought are those guys? Then why would Alric have run away to aid the final boss? Unless the final boss is also a good guy and we're the bad guys.

Did Alric run away to aid the final boss? What final boss? I think you're reading my satire in the meta thread and thinking it applies to the main thread.

>The final boss is a good guy



Good and Evil are so very situational and subjective.

[Ashley] I don't care, just tell me who to sick my girls on.

Spoken like a true chaotic neutral.

[Alice]

It's only a psychological horror game for Yulya. The rest of us care about as much as Ashley.
For me it's just a horror game because I'll be stuck in that cold for years. Or - even worse in some undergrond mine, the only thing I hate more than cold.

>Daran is the Black Spider
Oh no, who could have forseen this?

I wanted to have him help the final boss. It just makes your life easier later which is good if all you really want to do is collect bugs and hang around in trees.

That's all I care about so I assume we did the right thing. Fake werewofls that drop no ears as loot when defeated cannot possibly have been be good guys! I have no idea what that idiot was trying to do in terms of the Greater Good, but he definitely was out there to kill us with his troll and winter wofls. If this was just acting he was a brilliand method actor.

I do wonder if the whole story will ever make sense or if it's just a chain of fuck-ups. So we have a bandit organization set on ripping off nobles but half of them are nobles like the marquis son we ate. And they go through all the trouble to lure us to their mine? Who sent us there in the first place? Sildar did! Who conveniently also was the last who saw Gundren and was found where -  in the goblin den the bandits used as hideout.
