Heroes of the Peloponnese Game Thread #2

[Vanya Mia]

"Look at the pretty colours." Kataramene wiggled her fingers in front of her, staring at them in fascination, as she spoke. Her voice vaguely slurred and languorous in tone, and she glanced to her left. "Can you see them? They're very bright, and so many of them I can't name them. They change as I move my fingers, see?" The wiggling fingers went through the same movements once or twice. "There! Red." A wiggle to one position. "Now blue." Another slight change of position. "Now it's green!" She glanced sideways once more seemingly for affirmation.

"This is the nicest potion ever, but it's nearly gone." Picking up the bottle containing the remnants of the healing potion Damian had given her, she shook it a little unsteadily. "There's not much left, just a little in the bottom." She shook the bottle again, as if doing so might conjure more of the contents, and then the young woman smiled a slow smile. ""You can have it if you want it." She paused, the smile joined by an impish look to the eyes. "But you'll have to roll over and beg."


((*looks at the anti-fear belt she bought and sighs* It'll be useful one day again, no doubt.))

an odorous task

hold my breath

Hah! This is a case when the player knows what's coming, but the character doesn't!

[Gulfwulf]

((I'm glad someone caught that. ))

[Karvon]

Leonaidas decided if he got back in one piece he was going to buy that charm belt the priest and waved at him several times. And he was gonna have to buy some more of these magic missile wands, as they seemed to work a whole lot better than his arrows against these legendary creatures they kept running into. He fingered the dragon tooth he'd retrieved; he was building quite a collection of these things; perhaps some mage would pay him handsomely for his souvenirs one day.

Eleni spent several minutes observing Kataramene, going from frowning in concern to smiling in amusement and back again several times over the course of the duration.

"I am not certain if I should be worried about her, or if I should ask if I could have some of whatever it is she's having. It's good enough we didn't bring her with us earlier, at least - she might have confused the dragon for a butterfly. She, uh, will be fit to travel soon, I hope?"

[smartalec]

"Oh, she's fine," said Polytropos, arriving at Kataramene's side. "We're both fit, ready, and all warmed up! So to speak." He looks sidelong at Kat, and makes a quiet 'woof' noise.

Smirking, he refocuses on the others. "What've you been doing? You look... well, awful. And you're talking crazy. Pride a sin? It's the noblest thing of all!"

[Topato]

Alright well I hope you enjoyed your little holiday while we were fighting lizards the size of a Villa. We've got to go and see Augeas next. Gods alone know what he'll want us to capture or kill or whatever. Probably something large and full of teeth.

We will begin with the party's arrival in Elis, the domain of King Augeas.

"I've got a real treat for you this time" Tel said, as he dropped the large misshapen sack in front of the Armoursmith. He grinned at the mans reaction as he opened the bag, equal parts surprise and curiosity. "The hide and scales of a White dragon" he announced, pulling them free from the sack, still cold to the touch. "What do you think you could make me with this?"

[Gulfwulf]

Damian looked at the dragon hide. "I hope that hide makes for good armor, Tel. We certainly went through enough to obtain it." He gestured at his new armor. "I was able to pick up a new set from the Thracians; the druids there certainly do know how to make natural armor that's also practical and protective. It also helps protect against cold, so if we come across another of those giant lizards, we should be better prepared. Not that I want to, but our 'patron' may have something like that in mind."
