Lithaladhwen: You want to RP the research bit?
THENinjaRabbi: Sure, if you want.
Lithaladhwen: Doesn't really matter to me.
Lithaladhwen: Probably a lot of looking in books.
THENinjaRabbi: What're they researching, exactly?
Lithaladhwen: Anti-magic and anti-psionics.
THENinjaRabbi: Well, it's honestly up to you.
Lithaladhwen: OOC-wise....
Lithaladhwen: http://d20srd.org/srd/spells/antimagicField.ht m
Lithaladhwen: That's probably something they'd want.
THENinjaRabbi: Yeah.
THENinjaRabbi: Dunno who could cast it though.
Lithaladhwen: Could have an item made.
THENinjaRabbi: Kerov still couldn't cast it. They'd need someone that could cast spells do it.
Lithaladhwen: Or use magic devices.
THENinjaRabbi: Yeah.
Lithaladhwen: If they ask around and sift through the mission files of the action with Elaith, there was a woman who could do that.
Lithaladhwen: Yadali doesn't know much about her, but could probably find her.
THENinjaRabbi: In that case, he'd want to find her.
Lithaladhwen: Okay. That shouldn't be too hard.
THENinjaRabbi: If you want to RP this, fine by me. Depending on how long this bit with Lym and Stephan takes, it might be good.
Lithaladhwen: yeah, Let's go ahead.
Lithaladhwen: So... spell that prevents magic.
Lithaladhwen: There has to be one.
THENinjaRabbi: There's definetely one.
THENinjaRabbi: I don't know the particulars of it, though.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Well... let's check the library.
THENinjaRabbi: Good idea.
Lithaladhwen: *walkies*
THENinjaRabbi: *Follows to the library*
THENinjaRabbi: ...ok, we're going to need a strategy, there's lots of books in here.
Lithaladhwen: I have an idea.
THENinjaRabbi: Hm?
Lithaladhwen: *goes to a guy reshelving books and asks him about antimagic. He gives them a call number that the GM refuses to make up right now.*
THENinjaRabbi: Ok, that's much better.
Lithaladhwen: Okay, Kerov. That way. *points*
THENinjaRabbi: *Looks over in that general direction*
Lithaladhwen: *walks and pokes around for a book*
Lithaladhwen: *makes sure the attendant isn't watching and tosses it to Kerov*
THENinjaRabbi: *catches it, and opens it up*
Lithaladhwen: Check the table of contents.
THENinjaRabbi: Good idea. *Does so*
Lithaladhwen: *There's a chapter on antimagic*
THENinjaRabbi: *opens up to it*
Lithaladhwen: *It explains a lot about mana fields and how there are places where magic can be forced not to work*
Lithaladhwen: *At the end there's a spell*
THENinjaRabbi: *reads over the spell*
Lithaladhwen: *It's a spell to generate the antimagic field so painstakingly described earlier*
THENinjaRabbi: Here it is!
THENinjaRabbi: *shows the spell to her*
Lithaladhwen: Ooh!
Lithaladhwen: Neat.
Lithaladhwen: Now what?
THENinjaRabbi: ...well, I can't cast something like this unfortunately.
THENinjaRabbi: Can you?
Lithaladhwen: No...
THENinjaRabbi: Hm.
THENinjaRabbi: Lym's a psionisict, I don't think he can do that...
Lithaladhwen: But I know a woman who can use wands. I don't think she casts magic herself, though.
Lithaladhwen: And I don't think she likes me very much.
THENinjaRabbi: Hm.
THENinjaRabbi: Well, I suppose we could whip up a wand with this spell and maybe beg her to help us with using it.
Lithaladhwen: Well, it's not so much that she doesn't like me. I think I remind her of stuff.
Lithaladhwen: You could ask her, though.
THENinjaRabbi: She's a capable fighter, right? I don't wanna bring anyone who's untested into a dangerous battle.
Lithaladhwen: She killed our healer.
Lithaladhwen: I'd say she'll do fine.
THENinjaRabbi: ...um...
THENinjaRabbi: This isn't very comforting to hear, you know.
Lithaladhwen: She was Nikumu. It wasn't her fault.
Lithaladhwen: Or something.
Lithaladhwen: She felt bad later.
THENinjaRabbi: Oh.
THENinjaRabbi: Well, do you know where she is?
Lithaladhwen: She liked knives. Ask a guy who sells knives.
Lithaladhwen: I bet she's a regular.
THENinjaRabbi: The more you say, the worse I feel about this.
THENinjaRabbi: I don't suppose you're coming with me then.
Lithaladhwen: I don't think I should.
Lithaladhwen: She's all right, I swear. Kazeros gave her the okay.
THENinjaRabbi: Well, if you're coming with us to Dawn, then this is going to have to work out SOMEHOW.
Lithaladhwen: She'll help you. She probably has a big problem with the mental domination now.
Lithaladhwen: Seeing as she was possessed by the god of hate.
THENinjaRabbi: Alright. What's her name?
Lithaladhwen: Myrnal.
THENinjaRabbi: You'll be fine with staying here, and not sticking it to Dawn?
Lithaladhwen: Oh yeah. I don't have a grudge against her or anything.
Lithaladhwen: I just find her unpleasant.
THENinjaRabbi: Ok then. Can you do me a favor and see if you can get a wand with this spell made? Thank you for all your help.
Lithaladhwen: Sure. I'll get it to you.
Lithaladhwen: I'll find you.
THENinjaRabbi: Alright, thanks.
THENinjaRabbi: *Goes to find some place that sells knives*
Lithaladhwen: *He finds a shop with front windows displaying several varieties of bladed weapons*
THENinjaRabbi: IM: This'll do. *walks on in*
Lithaladhwen: *He hears a voice in the back room* Is it done yet?
Lithaladhwen: *a woman walks out with a knife in her hand that's got a pretty little barb at the tip*
Lithaladhwen: *she's wearing a belt with about 8 daggers on it*
THENinjaRabbi: IM: ...lotta knives. Eh, worth a shot.
THENinjaRabbi: *stops the woman* Excuse me...
Lithaladhwen: ...
Lithaladhwen: Uh, I know you?
THENinjaRabbi: More than likely not. Is your name Myrnal?
Lithaladhwen: *wary* Yes. Why?
THENinjaRabbi: Ah, I was looking for you.
Lithaladhwen: *walks toward the door* What do you need?
THENinjaRabbi: I'm a Knight of Doma. Right now, we're trying to find and...terminate a person who's been causing trouble for the area. Her name is Dawn, she's a psionisict that warps minds to her control.
Lithaladhwen: Dawn. I know that name.
THENinjaRabbi: You do?
Lithaladhwen: I met her briefly. I heard she died.
THENinjaRabbi: Nothing stays dead around here.
THENinjaRabbi: Right now, we're trying to get a wand that can restrict magic and psionic usage, but nobody we know can use it.
THENinjaRabbi: ...I heard that you can.
Lithaladhwen: I can use magic items, yeah.
Lithaladhwen: But a wand is more for minor spells.
THENinjaRabbi: ...oh.
Lithaladhwen: Probably want a scroll. I've always used those for the others.
THENinjaRabbi: Well, we're having someone in the castle working on it. Either way, something'll be cooked up.
THENinjaRabbi: I'd like to humbly ask your assistance.
Lithaladhwen: ... Yeah. Sure. Worst case scenario we all die, right?
THENinjaRabbi: Isn't that always the worst case?
Lithaladhwen: Yup. But it's good to get it out there from the start.
THENinjaRabbi: Best case is you survive, we kill Dawn, and you get a nice reward and the gratitude of Doma.
Lithaladhwen: Eh. Chance to do it right this time, I guess.
Lithaladhwen: *gestures to the symbol of Kazeros on her chest* I got lucky last time.
THENinjaRabbi: *nods*
THENinjaRabbi: So, you in?
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, why not.
THENinjaRabbi: Great!
THENinjaRabbi: Right now, we're waiting for some people to get back...hopefully soon.
THENinjaRabbi: Where can I contact you? Or whatever.
Lithaladhwen: Uh... well I don't have anything else to do. Got my knife done.
Lithaladhwen: When'll they be back?
THENinjaRabbi: Anytime from now to tomorrow.
Lithaladhwen: Oh.
THENinjaRabbi: You're more than welcome to use a guest room at the castle, if you want.
Lithaladhwen: Sure.
Lithaladhwen: Better than the park.
THENinjaRabbi: Yeah.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah. No prob.
THENinjaRabbi: I'll get you a pass so you don't have to give up the knives.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, they know me.
THENinjaRabbi: Oh?
THENinjaRabbi: Ok then, either way.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah.
THENinjaRabbi: I'm heading back there now, I'll help you get set up.
Lithaladhwen: Okay. Sur.
Lithaladhwen: *sure
THENinjaRabbi: Great! *heads back to the castle*
Lithaladhwen: *follows*
THENinjaRabbi: *Finds an empty guest room* Here, is this satisfactory?
Lithaladhwen: Yeah. S'all good.
Lithaladhwen: *sits down on the bed* I'll be here if you need me. Or in the kitchen with the Goblins.
Lithaladhwen: You should try their cheesecake,
Lithaladhwen: *.
THENinjaRabbi: Maybe I will.
THENinjaRabbi: Are these the same goblins from the Jade Dragon?
Lithaladhwen: No, they're the castle staff.
THENinjaRabbi: Ah. I wonder what happened to those guys.
Lithaladhwen: *shrug*
THENinjaRabbi: Well, if you need me, I'll be in my office. Thank you again for your help. *bows*
Lithaladhwen: Okay.
Lithaladhwen: Seeya.
Lithaladhwen: *to self* Fuck.
THENinjaRabbi: *nods, and heads to his office*
Lithaladhwen: IM: This again.
THENinjaRabbi: *In which he clears out a space in his trophy cabinet and labels the spot "Dawn"*
THENinjaRabbi: IM: Still missing Xzar'il...
Lithaladhwen: Kerov! *she storms in* I couldn't get wands.
Lithaladhwen: But I got three scrolls made!
Lithaladhwen: That enough to start?
THENinjaRabbi: Ah, that's great!
THENinjaRabbi: That's fine, thank you.
Lithaladhwen: Okay.
THENinjaRabbi: *Shuts his trophy case real fast*
Lithaladhwen: Uhm... I'm going to have to let Alex out for a sec.... so I'll see you later?
THENinjaRabbi: Ok. Thank you again.
Lithaladhwen: Yup!
Lithaladhwen: Okay, Alex! Cripes! *runs off*
Lithaladhwen: </Yadali>
