Session 1st Of June, Start off with this description

[Lokky]

Heading down the corridor into the dungeon tunnels, the clammy walls seem ever tighter as they're cowered in moss and fungus. The Kyton devil in its cage disappears from sight behind you, and the square corridors reveal themselves to your dark vision.

Coming to an oval room, a large black disc or rift in space suddenly appears in the centre of the room, its borderline being a beautiful electric purple, giving off a faint glown. Small skittering spiders and bugs of the dungeon seem to flee from the disc, and Ola is overcome by a near nauseous sense of Deja Vu, as she whispers into the silent room: "They're here."

Intro session being run on Sunday evening, 6pm OMT start. Anyone around then may as well drop in to have some input as Uri won't be here to help.

[8people]

[2007-06-10 18:11:38] <@Octara> We're in an oval shaped room, stone walls, there's a large black portal in the centre of the room, the borders and electric purple. Small creatures (arachnids and insects mostly by the look of it) are chittering and crawling along the walls.
[2007-06-10 18:11:46] *** Octara changed nick to Olachath
[2007-06-10 18:11:59] <@Gopher> are we going by "unknown" for the moment?
[2007-06-10 18:12:03] *** DarkStrider changed nick to Davryl
[2007-06-10 18:12:15] <@Olachath> (Change your nicks, we won't call you that yet though)
[2007-06-10 18:12:26] *** Gopher changed nick to Maleth
[2007-06-10 18:12:31] *** Tiamat changed nick to Leilah
[2007-06-10 18:13:05] <@Olachath> (Should we all give appearance descriptions to start with?)
[2007-06-10 18:13:24] <@Maleth> (yes please)
[2007-06-10 18:13:42] <@Olachath> "They're here"
[2007-06-10 18:13:53] <@Olachath> (^ Lokken line XD)
[2007-06-10 18:14:02] <@Leilah> (Thief, thief!)
[2007-06-10 18:14:43] <@Olachath> (Olachath is 4'8" Drow, red hair down to her shoulders, tied back loosely, lilac eyes, wearing high quality armour and looking at you with a mix of contempt and uncertainty atm ;¬))
[2007-06-10 18:15:27] <@Maleth> (who speaks "They're here"?)
[2007-06-10 18:15:35] <@Olachath> (Olachath XD)
[2007-06-10 18:15:39] <@Leilah> (Ola I'm guessing)
[2007-06-10 18:16:18] <@Olachath> (Arenon would be standing with Olachath, he's a taller male Drow. Not too sure on details of his appearance, might look it up)
[2007-06-10 18:17:22] <+Davryl> (Davryl is a 6' 2" human, dark haired and dark-eyed, his skin has a pale waxy look as if he spends a lot of time in the dark, he wears grey robes edged with black, he holds a staff)
[2007-06-10 18:17:57] <+Davryl> (Davryl would be standing, waiting)
[2007-06-10 18:18:59] <@Maleth> (Maleth is a 5'10" human-looking man, unkept black hair with grey streaks and a rough, bland face which needs shaving. His eyes are black, not white, with purple irises. He wears fine-made black trousers, a grey frilled shirt and black jacket. He looks at you disdainfully, hands at ease on his belt.)
[2007-06-10 18:19:09] <@Maleth> "And where, pray tell Lady Drow, is 'here'?"
[2007-06-10 18:19:36] <@Olachath> (That is an excellent question)
[2007-06-10 18:20:16] <@Olachath> "We are in the underdark, on a small skull island, it is an awkward complex to navigate."
[2007-06-10 18:20:30] <@Leilah> (Leilah is maybe 5'5" or 5'6", with slightly-tanned skin that looks like it used to be a lot darker, and long straight black hair. She's wearing a black circlet on her brow and a long dark hooded cloak under which you can glimpse armour. She appears alert and curious.)
[2007-06-10 18:20:51] <@Olachath> (You guys might want to bookmark http://z3.invisionfree.com/Dragoneye_Forum...p?showforum=27)
[2007-06-10 18:21:07] <@Leilah> (I think we've got it)
[2007-06-10 18:21:29] <@Olachath> (k, my memory sucks)
[2007-06-10 18:21:40] * Olachath watches the strangers apprehensively
[2007-06-10 18:22:04] * @Maleth steps out of the portal in front of Leilah protectively.
[2007-06-10 18:22:24] * +Davryl smirks
[2007-06-10 18:22:28] * @Leilah looks Ola up and down consideringly and nods slightly, then follows Maleth
[2007-06-10 18:22:48] <@Maleth> "Now, see 'we' were not in the Underdark. In fact, we were somewhere very different having some very nice food. Why have you brought us, I demand an explanation."
[2007-06-10 18:23:14] * @Leilah lays a hand on Maleth's shoulder, "It may not be them who brought us."
[2007-06-10 18:23:24] <@Olachath> "We have not brought you here. I was about to ask myself how you came about here."
[2007-06-10 18:23:35] * Olachath eyes the portal warily
[2007-06-10 18:23:51] * @Leilah examines the portal, then whispers to Maleth
[2007-06-10 18:24:14] <@Maleth> (photoref: http://www.northproject.net/img/maleth.jpg)
[2007-06-10 18:24:29] <+Davryl> "the interesting thing is... why did you say they're here Ola"
[2007-06-10 18:24:41] <@Olachath> "Silence yourself, mage."
[2007-06-10 18:25:06] <@Leilah> "I believe we may have been sent here to render you assistance."
[2007-06-10 18:25:10] * +Davryl smirks and admires Ola's ass
[2007-06-10 18:25:20] <@Olachath> "Assistance?"
[2007-06-10 18:25:26] * Olachath looks a little relieved
[2007-06-10 18:25:47] <@Olachath> "Who are you both?"
[2007-06-10 18:25:56] * @Maleth coughs lightly
[2007-06-10 18:26:09] <@Leilah> "Indeed. We were told to seek out a party of adventurers and join their cause. We had not made much headway, which may be why we were so abruptly transported here. I am Leilah Izz-al'Shar."
[2007-06-10 18:26:48] * Olachath glances back at the portal at the mention of the surname
[2007-06-10 18:26:54] <@Maleth> "And I am Maleth, of the Akhlaur family. You probably haven't heard of me."
[2007-06-10 18:27:02] * @Maleth smirks
[2007-06-10 18:27:53] * @Leilah nods and accepts Ola's recognition
[2007-06-10 18:28:04] <@Olachath> "I am Olachath Rilyn'tlar, fifth daughter of the Matron of the third house of Karsoluthiyl"
[2007-06-10 18:28:40] * @Maleth rolls his eyes, not very subtly
[2007-06-10 18:29:02] <@Olachath> "The male Drow is Arenon, the armoured one is Neeranna, my bodyguard. The mage is Davryl."
[2007-06-10 18:29:14] <@Maleth> "Greetings to you all."
[2007-06-10 18:29:18] <+Davryl> "I am simply called Davryl or .... " with a sidelong at ola "... Mage"
[2007-06-10 18:29:19] <@Leilah> "Greetings to you, Lady Olachath, and to your companions. It appears we may have a common goal, although I am not entirely sure what that is..."
[2007-06-10 18:29:50] * Olachath nods to Leilah
[2007-06-10 18:30:01] <@Olachath> "In truth I had expected more trouble when seeing this portal."
[2007-06-10 18:30:20] * +Davryl looks around
[2007-06-10 18:30:32] <@Maleth> "In which case you must be very trusting indeed, to believe we are not."
[2007-06-10 18:30:59] <@Olachath> "I am reserving judgment. Sir."
[2007-06-10 18:31:15] <@Maleth> "A wise move, Milady."
[2007-06-10 18:31:21] * +Davryl finds gameboy and starts playing
[2007-06-10 18:31:26] <@Leilah> (lol)
[2007-06-10 18:31:31] <@Olachath> (well talk then, boy!)
[2007-06-10 18:31:50] <+Davryl> (told me to shut up )
[2007-06-10 18:31:59] <@Leilah> "I am glad we have not added to your trouble, then. What brings you here, then?"
[2007-06-10 18:32:00] <@Olachath> (Since when have you listened? XD)
[2007-06-10 18:32:20] <+Davryl> "We are looking for something for me"
[2007-06-10 18:32:33] <@Olachath> "A combination of goals, originally seeking something for the mage. Now we seek an item for the Kraken and looking for the master of this place."
[2007-06-10 18:33:10] <+Davryl> "although they're probably one and the same"
[2007-06-10 18:33:31] <@Maleth> "The Kraken? A legendary sea creature of collosal proportions, the stuff of myth, surely?"
[2007-06-10 18:33:34] <@Olachath> "I am doubtful the creature would have a means to operate this place"
[2007-06-10 18:33:35] <+Davryl> "Lady Ola leads and for now I follow"
[2007-06-10 18:33:40] <@Olachath> "I wish it was a myth!"
[2007-06-10 18:33:58] <@Leilah> "And you wound up cooperating with this creature how?"
[2007-06-10 18:34:21] <@Olachath> "The creature attacked with no warning. I had to arrange a deal with it to ensure our survival here. Something the others owe me for."
[2007-06-10 18:34:42] <@Leilah> "Then they are fortunate to have you with them."
[2007-06-10 18:35:04] <+Davryl> "The debt will be paid ... in full"
[2007-06-10 18:35:23] <@Olachath> "I am blessed to be a Priestess of Lloth and granted gifts that allow me to deal with our challanges effectively. I was able to us a spell to converse in its own language."
[2007-06-10 18:35:31] <+Davryl> damn brb phone
[2007-06-10 18:35:50] <@Olachath> ("What is this phone you speak of, necromancer?!")
[2007-06-10 18:35:59] <@Leilah> (LOL)
[2007-06-10 18:36:34] <@Maleth> (hahaha)
[2007-06-10 18:36:37] * @Leilah nods to Ola, "The gifts of a goddess can be powerful indeed."
[2007-06-10 18:36:40] <@Olachath> "I believe half of them forget they are lucky for a Priestess of Lloth with them."
[2007-06-10 18:36:55] <@Maleth> "Lolth." (practically spitting the word)
[2007-06-10 18:37:01] <@Olachath> "Especially in her own realm."
[2007-06-10 18:37:24] <@Olachath> "She many not be your goddess, Maleth, but her power here is great and has allowed me to grow in power."
[2007-06-10 18:38:20] <@Olachath> "I am guessing you are both followers of the Mistress of the Night?"
[2007-06-10 18:38:24] <+Davryl> (back)
[2007-06-10 18:38:26] <@Maleth> "At least a cold heart and grim determination is something I can respect, not like the mindless filth that plague the temples on the surface."
[2007-06-10 18:38:59] <@Leilah> "Yes, She is our goddess. There are shadows aplenty here, but it is surely wise to respect the Spider Queen in her own realm."
[2007-06-10 18:39:22] * @Maleth nods slightly
[2007-06-10 18:39:42] <@Maleth> "Servants of the Dark Deity indeed, your great perception is admirable."
[2007-06-10 18:40:06] <+Davryl> (Selune then?)
[2007-06-10 18:40:27] <@Leilah> (Hahahah!)
[2007-06-10 18:40:37] <@Leilah> (Quite the opposite, we're Sharites.)
[2007-06-10 18:40:37] <@Olachath> "Our Goddesses have worked together on occassion, there is no reason now for her followers not to either."
[2007-06-10 18:41:14] <@Leilah> "Indeed, particularly as our goals appear to coincide at the moment."
[2007-06-10 18:41:15] <@Maleth> "Quite so, but please let us move. I would prefer not to make our presence known to anyone nearby."
[2007-06-10 18:41:28] <@Maleth> "As said, 'The Dark is a time to act, not wait'."
[2007-06-10 18:41:36] * Olachath nods
[2007-06-10 18:42:14] <@Olachath> (I have no f-ing idea what's planned for ahead though :¬P)
[2007-06-10 18:42:27] <@Leilah> (LOL)
[2007-06-10 18:43:02] <@Leilah> (I just poked Loki on MSN, though he seems to be away...heh)
[2007-06-10 18:43:10] <@Maleth> (wouldn't be the first time)
[2007-06-10 18:43:15] <@Olachath> (Hence why I didn't poke earlier XD)
[2007-06-10 18:43:30] * @Maleth takes out a flask from his satchel and lays it on the floor
[2007-06-10 18:43:33] <+Davryl> (Did we evermention Davryl's god at any time Ola?)
[2007-06-10 18:43:48] <@Maleth> "Basically, so we get to know eachother - this game is called Spin-the-flask..."
[2007-06-10 18:43:59] <@Leilah> (You've gotta be kidding me...)
[2007-06-10 18:44:03] <@Maleth> (>_>)
[2007-06-10 18:44:14] <@Olachath> (LOL)
[2007-06-10 18:44:19] * @Leilah raises an eyebrow at Maleth, "Perhaps if we moved to a safer location?"
[2007-06-10 18:44:22] <@Olachath> (DS - nope)
[2007-06-10 18:44:38] <@Olachath> ("Well there's a Kyton back there who can warn us and maybe join in!")
[2007-06-10 18:44:46] <@Leilah> (hehehe)
[2007-06-10 18:44:57] <+Davryl> (Ok he does worship someone)
[2007-06-10 18:45:07] * @Maleth nods, "Somewhere to rest perhaps and formulate a plan."
[2007-06-10 18:45:18] <@Leilah> (good to know. atheists aren't exactly common in FR... )
[2007-06-10 18:46:36] <+Davryl> (I didn't know it was going in this direction when I created him and so just gave him a deity that tried to fit with a Neccy)
[2007-06-10 18:46:51] <@Olachath> "There is a room back with a Kyton, he watched over us resting a while ago. Or here seems relatively quiet, the arachnids won't harm us and their behaviour could be a warning."
[2007-06-10 18:46:53] <+Davryl> (So I gave him Shar)
[2007-06-10 18:46:59] <@Leilah> (awesome!)
[2007-06-10 18:47:15] <+Davryl> (Could well be)
[2007-06-10 18:47:31] <@Maleth> "A Kyton?"
[2007-06-10 18:47:36] * @Maleth raises an eyebrow
[2007-06-10 18:47:49] <@Olachath> (Oh shit, I'm not supposed to call it that XD)
[2007-06-10 18:47:59] <@Olachath> (A devil! A DEVIL!)
[2007-06-10 18:48:09] <@Leilah> (what's a Kyton then? )
[2007-06-10 18:48:23] <@Olachath> (Kyton = Devil for all purpose of this conversation!)
[2007-06-10 18:48:27] <@Olachath> (>_<)
[2007-06-10 18:48:45] <+Davryl> (me mindwipes the last paragraph)
[2007-06-10 18:48:46] <@Leilah> (yes, and for other purposes?
[2007-06-10 18:49:02] <@Olachath> (Chain Devil?)
[2007-06-10 18:49:19] <@Olachath> "Yes, a bound creature, wants to be freed."
[2007-06-10 18:49:39] * Olachath looks sulky
[2007-06-10 18:49:47] <@Olachath> "Arenon has a sort of deal with it."
[2007-06-10 18:50:01] <@Maleth> "A Deal with a Devil?"
[2007-06-10 18:50:03] <@Leilah> "Is that wise?"
[2007-06-10 18:50:08] * @Maleth laughs
[2007-06-10 18:50:09] <+Davryl> "She's not a fan of rabbit"
[2007-06-10 18:50:21] <@Olachath> "Arenon is not known for his wisdom."
[2007-06-10 18:50:26] <@Olachath> "Rabbit?"
[2007-06-10 18:50:47] <+Davryl> "the one who likes to run"
[2007-06-10 18:50:57] * Olachath tuts
[2007-06-10 18:51:06] <@Olachath> "When has he ran away?"
[2007-06-10 18:51:35] <+Davryl> "It's his first thought, second is can I shag it?"
[2007-06-10 18:51:54] * Olachath glares at Davryl bitterly
[2007-06-10 18:52:00] <@Leilah> "I am hoping his third is to contribute to the party?"
[2007-06-10 18:52:04] <@Olachath> "Truth. But still."
[2007-06-10 18:52:16] <+Davryl> (Must remember to remond Uri I'm irritating him again)
[2007-06-10 18:52:23] <@Leilah> (heheheh)
[2007-06-10 18:52:36] * @Maleth looks at Davryl disdainfully
[2007-06-10 18:52:41] <@Olachath> "He pulls his weight and assists us when needed. He is valuable in this party for now."
[2007-06-10 18:52:50] * +Davryl smirks at Maleth
[2007-06-10 18:53:19] * @Maleth shakes his head
[2007-06-10 18:53:22] <@Leilah> "If he is useful, then I suppose personal...foibles are irrelevant."
[2007-06-10 18:53:56] <@Olachath> "In this environment it is foolish to let personal relationships in the way of survival."
[2007-06-10 18:53:58] <+Davryl> "He's useful, if only as a decoy"
[2007-06-10 18:54:17] <@Olachath> "Be quiet, mage, I have yet to see YOU do anything useful."
[2007-06-10 18:54:22] <+Davryl> "Aye true, lady, I will desist"
[2007-06-10 18:54:24] <@Leilah> "There is strength in numbers, at least."
[2007-06-10 18:54:51] <@Maleth> "Lady Drow, 'Fear is as strong as steel, while love and respect are soft and useless', is that not how the saying goes?"
[2007-06-10 18:54:51] <@Olachath> "And a range of skills."
[2007-06-10 18:55:11] * @Maleth smiles
[2007-06-10 18:55:13] <@Olachath> "All trust is foolish, and love is for the foolish and the dead."
[2007-06-10 18:55:31] <@Leilah> (LOL)
[2007-06-10 18:55:34] <+Davryl> "And the dead are in my power"
[2007-06-10 18:55:45] <@Maleth> "If you believe so."
[2007-06-10 18:55:45] <@Olachath> "And will be the only love you get, male."
[2007-06-10 18:55:56] <+Davryl> "true"
[2007-06-10 18:56:03] <@Leilah> (aaaand pwned. or eww.)
[2007-06-10 18:56:05] <@Maleth> "Lady Drow, it appears as if you have fear and strength for the both of us. Lead on?"
[2007-06-10 18:56:16] <@Olachath> (Gotta love Drow language for translations XD)
[2007-06-10 18:56:48] <+Davryl> (How many well-adjusted settled-down Necromancer's do you know?"
[2007-06-10 18:56:49] <@Olachath> "Very well." (But where? I already said I don't know what is ahead, unless we go back ;¬))
[2007-06-10 18:57:13] <@Maleth> (you've takent he lead now, not my problem )
[2007-06-10 18:57:24] <@Olachath> (lol)
[2007-06-10 18:57:31] <+Davryl> "to the devil my lady"
[2007-06-10 18:57:43] <@Leilah> "Have you any ideas where this artifact you're seeking might be located?"
[2007-06-10 18:57:56] * Olachath gestures around the room
[2007-06-10 18:58:00] <+Davryl> "Deeper"
[2007-06-10 18:58:01] <@Olachath> "Simply in this complex"
[2007-06-10 18:59:19] <@Maleth> "A secret revealed is a secret no more, as said. You do not know where to look."
[2007-06-10 18:59:19] <@Leilah> (dammit we need Lokken...)
[2007-06-10 18:59:51] <@Olachath> (Yup XD)
[2007-06-10 19:00:15] <@Olachath> (Got the intros in quite well though I think >_>)
[2007-06-10 19:00:22] <@Maleth> (yep )
[2007-06-10 19:00:34] <+Davryl> (Good job)
[2007-06-10 19:00:35] <@Leilah> (should we, er, wait?)
[2007-06-10 19:01:03] <@Olachath> (Could play spin the bottle "unofficially" :¬P)
[2007-06-10 19:01:29] <@Leilah> (heheheh, why not)
[2007-06-10 19:01:36] <@Maleth> (LOL)
[2007-06-10 19:02:08] <@Olachath> (That reminds me...)
[2007-06-10 19:02:15] <+Davryl> Lokky can't make it
[2007-06-10 19:02:17] <@Olachath> "What do you two do where you come from?"
[2007-06-10 19:02:44] <@Leilah> (we unofficially spinning the bottle now?)
[2007-06-10 19:02:56] * @Maleth gives Leilah a frown
[2007-06-10 19:03:17] <@Maleth> "I'm.. a scholar, of sorts."
[2007-06-10 19:03:34] <+Davryl> (lokky is working, and can't make it, asks if the logs will be posted so he can read up)
[2007-06-10 19:03:45] <@Olachath> (Will do)
[2007-06-10 19:03:52] <+Davryl> ()
[2007-06-10 19:04:18] <@Leilah> "I have the honour of serving Shar as a cleric."
[2007-06-10 19:04:35] * Olachath smiles slightly
[2007-06-10 19:04:44] * +Davryl looks sharply at Leilah and gulps
[2007-06-10 19:05:03] * @Maleth snaps at Leilah, "Revealsecretsonlytomembersofthefaithful!"
[2007-06-10 19:05:17] <@Olachath> "A powerful combination. Do you specialise in any particular field, Leilah?"
[2007-06-10 19:05:38] <@Olachath> "I am not after your secrets, Maleth."
[2007-06-10 19:05:59] <@Leilah> "I am sure that much would have become apparent, Maleth."
[2007-06-10 19:06:05] <@Olachath> "I simply wish to know how best to put your skills within this group."
[2007-06-10 19:07:08] <@Leilah> "Currently, we are carrying out instructions to join you. Beyond that, I am sure we will discover how to work together as the occasion arises."
[2007-06-10 19:07:19] * @Maleth shows his hands, palms up, at Olachath
[2007-06-10 19:07:27] <@Maleth> "No offense meant, Lady."
[2007-06-10 19:07:44] <@Olachath> "indeed."
[2007-06-10 19:07:47] <@Maleth> "Instructions from whom?"
[2007-06-10 19:08:47] * @Leilah shrugs, "My superior. She was not particularly specific."
[2007-06-10 19:09:08] <@Maleth> "No, they never are." *smirk*
[2007-06-10 19:10:23] <@Olachath> (Well that's me out of appropriate conversation XD)
[2007-06-10 19:10:57] <@Leilah> (hoo boy...lol)
[2007-06-10 19:11:23] <+Davryl> (I need Davryl to talk to Leilah sometime)
[2007-06-10 19:12:19] <@Leilah> (first opportunity they get alone, sure)
[2007-06-10 19:12:45] <@Maleth> "Should the need arise that we work together, then you should know I am capable at magic and various.. rogueish activities."
[2007-06-10 19:13:27] <@Olachath> "That will be most useful I am sure"
[2007-06-10 19:13:41] <@Maleth> "Of course you are."
[2007-06-10 19:14:22] <+Davryl> (and cut)
[2007-06-10 19:14:36] <@Olachath> "I am guessing you are one who lives alongside the phrase "Knowledge is Power"?"
[2007-06-10 19:14:39] <@Olachath> (k)
[2007-06-10 19:15:05] <@Maleth> "Knowledge without the means or inclination to use it is worthless."
[2007-06-10 19:15:29] <@Leilah> "Yet to those who value it properly, all knowledge is worth having."
[2007-06-10 19:15:36] <@Olachath> "Knowledge is information with purpose, however."
[2007-06-10 19:15:38] <+Davryl> "And will to use t, Sir"
[2007-06-10 19:16:08] * @Maleth sneers
[2007-06-10 19:16:16] <@Maleth> "You begin to sound like an Oghmite."
[2007-06-10 19:16:38] <@Leilah> "And the knowing when to use it," Leilah finishes, with a pointed look to Maleth.
[2007-06-10 19:16:51] <+Davryl> "I am not"
[2007-06-10 19:17:17] <@Leilah> "Secrets, after all, are knowledge restricted to a privileged few. That kind has yet more power."
[2007-06-10 19:18:12] <@Maleth> "Indeed."
[2007-06-10 19:19:23] <@Leilah> (*drops a pin*)
[2007-06-10 19:19:42] * +Davryl jumps on grenade
[2007-06-10 19:19:52] <@Maleth> (so, this would be 'it')
[2007-06-10 19:19:58] <@Leilah> (heheh)
[2007-06-10 19:20:02] <@Olachath> (appears so x_x)
[2007-06-10 19:20:05] <+Davryl> (I think so)
[2007-06-10 19:20:28] <@Olachath> (intros, a bit of bickering and a few definitions XD)
[2007-06-10 19:20:37] <@Leilah> (heheheh)
[2007-06-10 19:20:42] <@Maleth> (heh)
[2007-06-10 19:20:51] <+Davryl> (and some fun set up)
[2007-06-10 19:21:06] <@Leilah> (*runs around braining the non-faithful with a dictionary*)
[2007-06-10 19:21:13] <@Olachath> (HO NOES!)
