Hey There and Glad to etc., etc...
An awesome couple of days just passed. We managed to save a Chicken while Khalid was off doing some reconnoitering [sp?] with Firebead Elvenhair. Had to 'Edit-Out' a second venture, this time with Khalid included, into Red Canyon area from S Beregost due to extreme fatigue --who knew that transit would take more than 24 hrs!!! --and a heated argument with some whatchamacallums with bows and a very nice -even though petite- Short Sword. I think we won finally but Arjanis got Squashed while I was trying to re-equip Jaheira with her fancy +1Bullets. Ooph! Someday I will probably try the No reload thing...OK! We will just have to wait for more info about this Basillus fellow.
Details! Details!
The next day we headed back N. to FAI just because we knew Landrin would be enthused about her house being "Orkinated". On the way Ajantis told us a little more about where we had first met him...about how it was so close to the Baldur's Gate Bridge and some huge Insect Monsters. Met up with four of them while we -just for some reason- were all set up with ranged weapons...except for the Paladin of course. Also had the opportunity to do some Mediation work for some Fishermen which, although in a kind of confused state at the moment, was very meaningful for me.
I expect we will head back up there shortly from FAI and try to straighten matters out. Oh yes, Khalid hit Level 3 and Charname [FM/CG] is @ 1500/1500 towards his Level 2. And then we really must get going for at least a looksee into the whole Nashkel situation which Jaheira [and the whole world it seems] is so insistent about. How so much could depend on what is probably just some surly Miners and a bunch of incompetent Overseers....Go figger!
Everyone is enjoying yanking my chain about using a Warhammer instead of LongSword as if Im not really sure whether I ought to have been Fighter/Cleric instead of Fighter/Mage and maybe they are right. We will see. Seems to be working out great so far!! Speed factor is always good--both in Basketball and Melee/Disruption.. IMHO.. Hehe.
Or maybe Charname is just kinda torn several ways about the whole Personal Deity thing...
Cheers!
[ps: -Kivan is a rock. Who would have guessed that he proved to be almost as strong as Ajantis. Gonna be some sore backs in the Party when we get these smelly 'things' back to our Safe House in Beregost....]
[FYI-Long term, we plan to temporarily assist the Hamster-friend with Dynaheir, solicit his aid in transporting goods to the Thunderhammer Smithy...after which Khalid will exit Stage Left to begin working his contacts in BGCity....and then we will settle eventually upon Branwen to fill out the party. Thanks to all the folks who have spent so many, many hours exploring and developing all the different playing styles/ethics.. Great Game this...or what?!!
