I want to be able to plan out the next session to some level of
detail. Please let me know what you guys end up doing between now and
next session, and what you plan to do for next session.

At the end of this discussion I'd like to know the exact point in time
when we will be starting the events of session 5, and I would like to
know your plans for that session.

Right now you're still in Griffon's Nest. Would you like to leave
promptly? If so, where to? Should we assume you did all your
travelling before session 5 starts?

OOC: We said we would investigate the cause of the Griffon Tribe's
ancestral problems. Are we in agreement on this?

OOC: that's the direction I would like to go. Are we going back to longsaddle first, or getting supplies at the camp and going from there?

Well, make your preparations! This place is so massive (compared to
Longsaddle, that is) that anything you could afford can be found
here. Young (and old) wizards alongside mage Macario Ledeau can
enchant items, smithies work arms and armor, and craftsman of all
types work wares. Have fun :D

FYI: It's about 170 miles to The Shining White (your destination) as
the griffon flies, from your current location. Judging by your
slowest horse's speed, and accounting for environmental hindrances,
going straight there through the Lurkwood would take you about 8 days.

It's about 300 miles if you go to the Long Road first, up to Miribar,
and then follow River Mirar NE to the Shining White. This path would
take you about 9-10 days, but be less dangerous (in theory).

I say we go straight there and brave the lurkwood.

OOC: we can send word to longsaddle via feather token or some other means if we want to keep the harpells and the church up to date on where we are.

Clayton looks down at the ground and scratches his head and says "I think we should head out to the longload, I hear that there are horrible monsters out in the forest, and if any thing happens to stardust pa will kill me. I say a extra day or so won't make much of a difference.

Occ I want to buy ten holy waters. Is there something I can buy like a belt something  so I can pull it out and use it  in a single round?

There is currently no belt for flasks. A potion belt is made for
potions (1 oz of liquid), while a flask holds one pint (16 oz!). You
could have one custom made, but I would say it would only hold two
flasks of any kind, allowing you to pull them as a free action. That
would take a couple days, too.

As far as whom you buy it from, let me know which faith you're going
to buy holy water from. Every deity has slightly different effects in
his/her holy water. I've used these rules in the past, back when they
were on candlekeep.com, but I like what this guy has done with them.
Please use these variant rules for holy waters in this game (they
always do 2d4 to undead and evil outsiders, these effects are in
addition to that standard effect.) www.livinginafantasy.com/rpgfantasy/holywater/index.html

The clerics willing to sell holy water in Griffon's Nest worship:
Tempus, Hoar.

So let's decide. I need to know whether to beef up my RAM knowledge
of Miribar or Lurkwood.

Road it is. I need everyone to tell me if they buy anything in town.
I'm going to roll up what (if anything) happens between Griffon's Nest
and Mirabar, and we may start the game rolling initiative on a random
(or not so random) encounter, and I don't want the temptation for
anyone to say "But I would have gotten that."

So post to this group whatever you buy. If nothing, say nothing. If
you want to buy something and keep it secret, let me know via
emaiil.

Chop Chop! I have planning to do! :D

P.S. Everyone cool with starting at 5:30?

Holding.

OCC Jason we are going to be fighting undead and I am going to buy some holy water but I wanted to know if you could make me some. Also it would not be a bad idea to prepare bless water while we are traveling so we can have a fair amount on hand when we fight these vile creatures 


Clayton spends a few days at the "church" waiting for the clerics to prepare him holy water. While at the "church" he is enamored with their god Tempus. Never before has he heard of a god that exalts strength and combat. As Clayton rides up meet with you notice that he is wearing a silver helm and the his shield has the symbol of Tempus.

"Clayton my friend I am able to help us with the making of Holy water
for our travels. The 2 things we will need are some Flasks and some
powdered silver. Now I have priced the powdered silver and it is going
to cost us 25g in silver powder for every Flask we want to produce.
Now I have made an acquaintance sense we have been in town who has
told me that if I buy enough silver to produce 10 flasks then he will
see his way to give me a reduced price of 187g 50s for the whole. Now
I do not have the means to buy this much silver powder. I do know that
I have also talked to a couple of the other faiths in town and they
will sell us the water for 25g each. So if we are not producing in
bulk then there is no added cost to us from buying it from the
temples. I do still have 6 flasks of my own at this time."

OOC: No, I'll be in Vacaville, so a friend will drop me off.

About rations, 10 days there, 10 back, plus the time we spend there.
Make sure we have enough.

Don't forget Amrie can forage if need be. It'll slow you down, but,
just keep it in mind :D

Also you can buy rations in Mirabar, if you want to buy them here and
there.
