Yeah. Not able to completely block Confusion, but still something we could have had prepared.

The rest of you should have gotten protection from evil, I was the only one to ask Hana for it.

Disobedience is pointless.

To be fair, I had no idea we were gonna fight Ryslin until right before we did.

I thought Disobedience was better than it actually is. Protection from Evil is what we actually needed.

I've taken Protection from Evil with every character I've ever made so far. Celestial Heritage gives you a free Protection from Evil anyway which is neato for sorcs, don't need to waste a spell slot. Don't say I didn't tell you o_o

RISLYN casts SUGGESTION

"AVINA I have a great idea for a prank!

When your gnome wizard tries to cast a spell, you should TICKLE HIM with a SHOCKING GRASP channeled BULLET!

Doesn't he LOVE getting TICKLED by SHOCKING GRASP, especially right when he's trying to CAST A SPELL?"

Players, there is a decision to be made for the campaign: whether to go back into the dungeon after resting one night, or traveling back to town, sell loot/buy supplies, and then heading back to the mines. (this option causes 4 day delay minimum)

This decision creates certain differences in the monster population you will encounter. (i.e. it is more likely that the kobolds sent a group to investigate after few days, etc)

I vote we go back to town. More kobolds means more xp.

It's not that simple.

For one, what if the kobolds kill some of the spiders living there?

Oh. Hmm.

It probably won't decrease the amount of xp we get, since that would require less xp killing more xp, which seems unlikely. Unless many kobolds die to bring down a spider.

Also though, we're better at killing kobolds than spiders. At least, we have been so far.

On the other hand, going back to town means the kobolds have a chance of finding the pendant.

Or, we kill everything in here, wait for the kobolds 4 days away, and then kill them too. Best of all worlds.

Another related question: If you guys do go back to town, are you going to tell Lady Maria Whitlane that you lost the pendant?

Just gonna say, part of that is because the tanks didn't hide behind your DPS. That's partially why I'm done. What your friend was going, staying at the back, really pissed me off, FG.

We know there are other entrances to the mine. Do we have the option of looking for the other kobold encampments/groups?

Yes.

In fact, the map of the other mine is drawn and ready.

I recommend leveling up a bit first though.

I remember there being a small rest area for the kobold scouting/mining party. But I can't remember what was in it. Would there be enough materials, tools, and other supplies from their sleeping area and mining office to create make shift bridges to cross the platforms?

Yes.

However, it will take hours of work and craft checks plus you might get ambushed, etc.

By spiders or kobolds? Also, what if we took the materials back to our camp?

By spiders or worse.

Ah, I see what you mean.

You mean like bringing the materials back and putting together a makeshift ladder or something to cross the platforms with.

That sounds like something you guys can do.

Also, did we sell that yellow shiny gem we found at the beginning? Or just whatever we found from the chest?

I veto going out for 4 days, we should be fine going back in recharged with a new level. As long as we get tanks out in the front fighting, we can easily retrieve the pendant back, go to the spider that we need to and see from there. I'm not risking kobolds killing a potential NPC that will help us and getting another NPC possibly mad.

If I can get a 5 edition game that allows unearthed arcana with my gf and have a couple of games. I will start hosting 5 edition dnd since after it. Out of all the editions that's the one I seem to like best.
