She's got to either come with us or stay somewhere moderately safe and out of the way while we venture deeper. If we took her all the way back to the village, no doubt the others would come to a grisly end, assuming they're somewhere alive in this place.

Quest 1 = Rescue the villagers that were taken. The previous group rescues two prisoners previous, see the NPC gallery for their info. This one you just rescued will be added there as soon as you find out more info on her.

Quest 2 = Retrieve the relics stolen from the Hall of Great Valor.

While not a quest in it's own right a couple of you would probably be seeking vengeance for fallen comrades of the previous group too.

Well if the group is settled on leaving her out in the wilds someplace, then lets head back into the ingame thread and find a place to stash her. Will you be going back in right away or taking an extended rest here? Who has dailies and AP's left, if over half still have some capacity then you can generally press on?

I'm a bit lacking in healing surges (only have 2 left by my account), but I'm fine with pressing on. Besides, somewhere along the line of my knack for finding trouble I've acquired an additional Action Point, would be a waste not to use it. ;)

I say 2, since you wanted to know if you should spend surges to bring me up to full HP Melben, but it's not in the updated text (said it when I rolled for Diplomacy the first time).

Galadren has 4 HS left I believe, and another AP (used his Daily though).
He's definitely in favor of pressing on - maybe we can find someone else who can keep the lady company!  :D

Shandien has all dailies and both AP up. I think we should be fine with pressing on, though, I'm not sure what to do with the woman. Leaving her alone doesn't seem like a good idea neither is bringing her with us.

Ok sounds like stash the woman and press further into the dungeon then. Lets move it back into the game thread and find a good spot for her and any others you may come across.

You will need to use Nature or Perception to find a good spot and then Stealth or Nature to secure the site from prying eyes.

I figure having seen half a dozen friendly people die within weeks of in-game-time ought to have some impact at times. First it was the ones Theo was with before joining up with the group, then the reset wipe after that. Poor fella.

Certainly, I imagine actually watching several people brutally killed in combat would have some mental impact on those that survived. Play it up.

Also, it may feel like weeks of game time but in reality it is only the fourth day since the campaign began. I have built a calendar in excel where I keep track of what takes place on which day.

The FR calendar is broken into 12 months and has 5 (sometimes 6) special holidays called out. Each month has 3 weeks called Ride and each ride has 10 days. There is no special naming for the days of the week, they are commonly referred to a s One-day, Two-day, Three-day.

The current date is Six-day of the First Ride of Eleasis (the month is also known as Highsun, like August on our calender). The midsummer festival referred to in the player handout was seven days ago. The Shieldmeet (like our leap day every four years) was the day after that.

The local holiday celebrating the last victory of the Red Fist armies is near, known as the Heroes of Delimbyr Vale day or Hero Day for short. It is on One-day of the Second Ride of Eleasis, so 5 days away.

It was about the time I thought, I figure we'd be going on for 8 days or so, if I had to guess. Interesting fluff, either way

Updated the NPC gallery with what you know of the woman you rescued.

If you wanted to wrap up talking to the woman then go ahead and post this. I tried to sum this up quickly and get you back to the crawl but if you wanted to spend more time RPing then by all means.

NP Nan, I will keep Tanthalus going while you are away. May have to use him as a catalyst to get the others to decide where to go in the dungeon next since we have hit a sort of lull in getting back into the dungeon.

I know Dunor had a sunrod at one point, do you still have it with you or are you leaving it? The landing above and what's beyond will be dark if you do not, but then anything upstairs will know your coming by the light moving up the stairs if you do.

Dunor had one but hadn't really had a chance to pick it up after dropping it. Besides that, I'm not sure how long it's been since it was activated, or how long they last after that. He's still got another, but I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to bring more light.

I'm thinking if we can be quiet enough upon approach, we can have a sunrod ready, turn it on, and then ambush whoever's up ahead here (minus anyone we're here to save, of course!).
