Orr groans as he accidentally rolls off of a table in the great hall. "Ugh... two days in a row. Never doing that again... Probably... Maybe... for like... at least a week..." He slowly lifts himself up, looking for a water source or a trough or something to dunk his head into. He then loo...

Orr grins. "That sounds awesome!" To Archimedes and Malogos "We can probably afford to spend the night here before we head back towards the river. Speaking of which... we should probably see if anyone here knows the way there. If it seems too far, I could shift us to where we first fo...

"Yeah, I'd go for it too, uh... oh wait, getting something from Malogos. I think he's against it."

To the elder bro, "Thanks for the offer, but I believe he prefers to stay the way he was."

"Um, will he still be himself and have his memories and personality and all that? Also, he's a wizard. Would this impede his arcane spellcasting in any way?"

(Going to leave the actual decision up to Capn OoC, but just trying to get some info. Anything else you want us to ask, Capn?)

(I thought I left the dog (and lizards) with Thrull?)

To the dragon, before heading into town "Look up the Black Weavers in town if you're looking for a good time."

To the Elder Bro once in town, "Better in what way?"

To the elf, "The eggs are fine. They were moving around a bit when we were there. Good luck with the parenting thing." To Thrull and Archimedes, "Heh, third time was the charm. Uh, did they (the other rats) poof in, or did they come about some other way? Archimedes had the hammer with...

Orr shrugs. "You might want to move them out quickly. This place seems prone to collapsing."

He'll leave another sled for the eggs and then refresh his tokens again.

To Archimedes, "Right then, let's head back to town."

"Alright"

Orr will shape something like

but made of stone, and significantly more primitive.

Orr will use Earth Shape to carefully displace some of the earth around Malogos, to allow him to be pulled out with minimal risk of injury and/or the Basilisk falling on him. He'll then take a few moments to create makeshift 'stone tables' over the eggs, to shield them from falling debris. "Com...

Orr cautiously opens his eyes and looks around, averting them from any would be basilisks. "Let me give you a hand there." Orr will take twelve seconds (three full round actinos) to rearrange his tokens (3 earth, 1 water) and then use Stone Shape (13 cubic feet per use) around Archimedes. ...

When I played Final Fantasy 6 I just taught every party member Osmose (drain mana from enemies) and some of them had healing spells, so it wasn't necessary. In Temple of Elemental Evil, I'd rest after every encounter (sometimes this resulted in more random encounters that interrupt rest, but I'd kee...

"Is this place collapsing again? Fuck. Let's try to finish this quickly so we can get Malogos and the eggs out. Where is it?" Orr will powered fireburst the Basilisk and Archimedes, aiming some distance above the ground to avoid Malogos (6d6 fire damage, DC 17 Reflex halves). "Is it ...

Don't know how many turns it's been, but Orr will fireburst himself twice to get water tokens (don't want to risk hitting Malogos) and then move closer to the basilisk, asking Archimedes for directions for the next available turn. Next turn after that, he'll try to physically touch the Basilisk (has...

Would an immediate action +3 to saving throws have prevented that? Still got an unused water token. Using it here means I can't try to nauseate it if it works, but I'd be okay with just sickening it no save if this does work. Also, going behind Archimedes and closing eyes instead of into the ceiling...

"Shit. Well, if I get petrified again, at least we know someone who can fix that." Orr will open his eyes and go after the Basilisk. He'll spend a fire token to boost his blinking fly speed to 41.25 ft if necessary (otherwise it's 30 ft) to get within 35 ft of the basilisk (and not any cl...

"Sounds like a plan." Orr will attempt to communicate with the direction Archimedes is referring to, as if it's a non sapient creature. "Stay back, or the eggs get it." To Archimedes, "I'll blast it once you pounce it, as long as it's away from the eggs. Mention direction a...

If you want to keep favored class bonuses, I'd recommend either getting rid of racial favored class bonuses, or allowing people to take whichever racial favored class bonus they like regardless of their actual race.

"Perhaps we should wait less conspicuously. I could hide us in the walls, ceiling, or floor, leaving a few small air holes so we can breathe and Archimedes can smell it if it comes this way."

"Wait a second. Her mother might be down there. If Draghula's down there, we should wait for her to come out. Are the walls stone here? Call the skeleton back if so." Orr will feel around for the walls to check if they're stone.
