I was unsure if Saul should get more languages from permanent boosts to his intelligence after level 1 or not. So I didn't give him any. If he should, then he should have two more languages known.
I allow boosts to INT to grant additional languages, yes.  Consider it finally grasping the talks you heard around the marketplace, if you like.
So... I didn't really pay close attention to the racial language choices for having a high Int for Kalashtar when making him... but now that I look, I see that draconic isn't listed, and that he actually has more languages known than there are bonus languages listed for his race. :P So... can I just pick some from outside the list to fill in what he knows? They could represent the ones he picked up after leaving his homeland (and when his Int increased).

I went ahead and chose Rierdran as one of them, since that is on his bonus list, and I think I'll choose Giant for the other. So the languages learned outside his normal racial bonus list would be elven, draconic, and giant.
I don't pee messages into the snow often , but when I do , it's in Cyrillic with Fake Viagra.  Stay frosty my friends.

Not a problem.  If adding "languages known" to the bonus language list is going to break my game. . . I'm in major trouble.

Blergh! I just realized that I put "plant" as Milo's favored enemy. I put it on as a placeholder. Would it be too late to change it to Abberation?

So out of all the NPCs, there is only one who can cast healing spells at all? Oof.

Are you claiming that either Toril or Eberron were utopias?  :twitch

I think we should all go underground and let the elves get wiped out.

:P

I believe it's late afternoon, so depending on what's going on, may be too late to move the camp today.

Would I use Survival or Hide to cover our tracks? Or are there too many people for me to do that?

Covering tracks is a Survival check.  The number of people involved makes the attempt pretty difficult.

So we are all clear in our expectations: Were you folks among those hidden in the Invisibility Sphere?

I kind of debated that in my head... I think we shouldn't be, as our job is to draw the raptorans away from the hidden people. So in fact we should probably be relatively far away from the invisible group, so they don't get caught in the crossfire, or inadvertently detected during the fight (or after... if we all die... Not that we'd care as players, as the game would be over hah, but in the name of good RPing, I think our characters might :P).

Now I don't mean like a mile away. Just far enough that they won't be in danger during the fight, or easily detected. So maybe a (few?) hundred feet or something.

What do you guys think?

Well, if we're about 100 feet away, they could all use th :rolleyese ranged weapons to flatfooted volley the raptoran if things go south.
