<St_James> Bear was a little slow on that one

<St_James> I'd be more impressed but that 6 was about my best roll yet

<St_James> so we didn't talk much earlier is this going to be a Destin session or a Dale session?

<FrilonDM> You can run both, if you want. Dale is in Heremac now, he arrived with a bunch of arrow-catchers from Mattin.

<FrilonDM> (back to Destin v. Dale) This game is going to start out at the Boar, so it might be a good Time to introduce Dale

<St_James> is he hear possible to make a bit of money with his sword arm and to get out of his fathers poor smithy business?

<FrilonDM> Yeah, it's a good time to be a mercenary -- lots o' people dying all the time.

<Ruik> Andyyyyyyyy! Andyyyyyyyy!!!!!!

<FrilonDM> Lemme see if I find out if he's somewhere else on the network.

<Ruik> How do you do that?

<FrilonDM> I'm using the "Whois" command to see if he's signed on

<Valerius> what's the weather in Taiwan

<St_James> tricky

<Ruik> It's cool and rainy here.

<St_James> for everyone's information Ed WOOD is here

<Valerius> great

<Ruik> Hi Ed!

<St_James> It's wet here too in my pants

<St_James> Ed says hi

<Ruik> Bring on the froghemoths!

<Valerius> how will we now when it's Renton talking ?

<St_James> I will start with "R"

<FrilonDM> Oops—how the @$!&*@) did Rob know that I put froghemoths in this dungeon?

<St_James> such as "R" says hey fembot, get it

<Valerius> I get it

<FrilonDM> The frogemoth rolls to hit

<FrilonDM> 3 1d20

* Bear rolls for FrilonDM (3 1d20) and gets 7 6 1.

<St_James> laughs at frogemoth's efforts

<FrilonDM> frogemoth = froghemoth

<Valerius> what to f*** is that anyway

<Ruik> Hey, do we need dice to do this? Whoops, that's probably a stupid question.

<Valerius> yes it was

<St_James> indeed

<FrilonDM> Rob, lemme introduce you to my friend Bear -- he rolls dice for us.

<St_James> by the way Curt I don't want Karyn looking at this

<Valerius> I don't want you looking at Karyn

<FrilonDM> Bear can also add, so you can do initiative rolls

<St_James> she need not know what it is really like! I'd rather be caught looking at Porn

<FrilonDM> 1d10+6

* Bear rolls for FrilonDM (1d10+6) and gets 12.

<St_James> hey why would I be looking at old one eye!

<FrilonDM> There are a couple other things I wanted to go over.

<Valerius> Eric Brey would not like this system

<FrilonDM> There are a couple of things about IRC I want to point out; Some of this you may already know. The first thing is how to use private chats, for secret conversations between two characters or between me and a player. There are at least two different ways to do this in IRC, and both are fine for our purposes.

<FrilonDM> If you're in the #Frilond channel, you can see the nickname listbox on the right side of the screen, listing everyone present. If you want to start a private chat, just double-click on the appropriate nickname in the listbox and a private query window will open up.

<FrilonDM> There is another way to chat privately called DCC Chat. This method is more secure and usually faster because it doesn't rely on the IRC Server to relay your messages. Instead it connects directly to the other person's IRC Client. To use DCC chat, there's a button on the taskbar.

<FrilonDM> Is everyone using mIRC?

<Ruik> I am.

<St_James> I am

<Valerius> I'm back

<FrilonDM> OK then, I'll start some private chats

<St_James> you can switch from private to public at the top too!

<FrilonDM> DING DING! You are correct, Sir!

<Valerius> I lost you but I'm back

<Valerius> have we got any experience yet?

<Valerius> where is dink face Vandoren?

<FrilonDM> Lemme look for him again, otherwise we'll start

<FrilonDM> No sign of the boy. Maybe I should have coa

<St_James> 1 d14

* Bear rolls for St_James (1 d14) and gets 5.

<Valerius> I'm going to look for my character sheet

<FrilonDM> coached him thru the set-up process, too.

<St_James> bear sucks

<FrilonDM> Well, lads, welcome to the first Frilond IRC chat session. I hope to make these a monthly event. This session is being logged and will be uploaded to the website. I'll also be sending copies of the log to Kip and Chip.

<FrilonDM> You are in The Bristling Boar Inn, shortly after Wyk's fight with Coll. It is a warm summer night, on The Feast of St. Daniel the Convert, which is also Midsummer's Night, the longest day of the year. Everyone is here except for Hamral, who is leading a militia patrol.

<FrilonDM> Garnfellow : "By the Cup! But you are the most damnably serious band of lads. Zounds! It's St. Daniel's Feast, the longest day of the year! Make merry, drink deep, and eat heartily. And have I a riddle for you!"

<FrilonDM> Garnfellow : I am what every maiden / Delights to grasp / For I am long and firm / And move up and down.

<St_James> well sung Fatty

<St_James> but I'll drink to that just as well

<FrilonDM> GARNFELLOW : "Ha Ho, but can you guess my riddle?"

<Valerius> riddles are for the simple minded (under his breath)

<St_James> out with it good man!

<Ruik> Perhaps we've already guessed, but don't wish to divulge our answer, Garnfellow, my good man!

<Valerius> mot says broom??????????

<Ruik> Wyk say I don' know, but I got my ideas!

<St_James> could it be the ferocious hungry pantaloon snake? roars St. James

<Valerius> mot says no no no butter churn

<FrilonDM> GARNFELLOW : "Broom? By the Cup! That's a good one, close

<Ruik> Wyk laughs out loud.

<St_James> *raising his glass* a toast to the snake

<Valerius> a toast to foolishness (muttering)

<FrilonDM> Ganrfellow: "Ha Ho! A butter churn it is! I drink to you, Valerius!"

<FrilonDM> Ganrfellow = Garnfellow

<Valerius> it was not I, but Mot , his mind is made more for riddles

<Ruik> Consortes, I think we should break out the newly-elected anchoress. It pains me to think of the poor girl holed up in there, against her will.

<Valerius> hunph

<Valerius> what of Hamral's plan of raiding

*** Vandoren has joined #Frilond

<Ruik> Wyk says Yeah, well what the hell! Let's be doing something.

<FrilonDM> Well met, Vandoren!

<Valerius> hey Vandoren

<Vandoren> Well met good gentlement

<Vandoren> men...

<Ruik> Vandoren! An ale for my friend!

<St_James> well here is Vandoren . . . Vandoren you missed a fascinating riddle

<Vandoren> Thank you good Ruik

<Ruik> My pleasure!

<FrilonDM> (Everone's at the Boar. Ruik just suggested breaking the anchoress out of her house)

<Vandoren> and what would the riddle be

<Vandoren> The new anchoress?

<St_James> *Renton lets leave her be there is nothing to be gained by it

<St_James> Ruik others here also thirst my friend.......

<Ruik> The Five believe in free will, do they not? Is she there of her own free will?

<Ruik> Indeed, drinks for all!

<Valerius> if we do not go raiding than we should follow Tim's men he is up to something this talk of rescuing is foolish

<Valerius> she is some peasant girl her life will probably be better

<Valerius> as anchoress

<St_James> I personally don't care what foolish venture you partake of since I will be busy with Roger for some Time

<Ruik> Well, maybe so. What would the Friar do?

<Vandoren> Do you object to visiting Canglen first?

<St_James> probably try to convince us to give away all of our money to the poor children of this war (what the friar would want)

<FrilonDM> FRIAR SIDRACH : "Perhaps the young girl is fine where she is. But I could ask my fellow Gerardians, when they return."

<Ruik> Yes, do so!

<Ruik> Uh, please.

<Valerius> if the church wants you in Canglen they will not be shy about calling you why rush off

<St_James> a tall lad with blonde hair enters the bar and spots Destin with delight

<Vandoren> If the Friar does not wish to go to Canglen Uncalled, I opt for Raiding The Rucks

<St_James> *they talk for quite sometime and clearly know each other well ... after a few moments he is introduced by St. James as Dale

<St_James> of Mattin

<Vandoren> But ... not without consulting with the Seekers

<Ruik> Wyk says, Let's just do something, okay? Hell, break out that girl, go after the rucks, but let's get off our asses here!

<St_James> This my friends is Dale whom first fostered the dreams of adventure and treasure in my silly head

<FrilonDM> GARNFELLOW : "Well met, Dale of Mattin!"

<Valerius> greetings

<Vandoren> Allo Dale of Mattin

<St_James> hello good sirs

<Valerius> mot

<Valerius> ; mot

<Ruik> Greetings, Dale!

<Valerius> mot: says are you naughty?

<St_James> Dale is here to try his sword and gain some coin perhaps you could give him a taste of adventure in my stead.

<FrilonDM> GARNFELLOW : "Dale, are you not part of the levy that has come from Bellenore?"

<Ruik> Wyk says Hell, I bet we could do that!

<St_James> yea, indeed I am just that . . . tired of my fathers smithy am I and ready for more profitable venture

<Vandoren> I must assume if Dale is associated w/ St. J then he is worthy and ready to sly rucks.

<Valerius> indeed (sarcastic)

<St_James> I shall try although I hear St. James skill have grown tremendously although his sharp sarcasm is as I remembered

<Ruik> Wyk says Or run from 'em!

<FrilonDM> MENDELOR : "Well, I'm ready to mess up some rucks, as well. Only Hamral's tied up with the militia for another month."

<Vandoren> Didn't say he was as bright as either V (alerius or andoren)

<St_James> Dale smiles . . . a round for all my new friends . . .

<Valerius> mot says he likes us wheeeeeeee

<Ruik> Wyk says All right!

<St_James> Unfortunately I must run as I have some business of my own I leave Dale in your keeping lads

<FrilonDM> FRIAR SIDRACH : "It seems the occupied lands might be very dangerous, indeed, without good Hamral."

<Valerius> good day St. J

<Vandoren> ASIDE TO CURT " Not the only one with a henchperson.."

<Vandoren> Friar...do you have a preferred course of action?

<Valerius> everyone should have one

<Valerius> I would prefer to spy on Tim's men rather than random raids

<St_James> Renton propose to follow Tim's men

<Ruik> Wyk says Can we just do something here? 'Elen, love! I'm dry here! Thanks deary!

*** St_James is now known as Dale

<Vandoren> What can we gain from that

<Dale> *Renton* Tim's goods!

<FrilonDM> FRIAR : "Anything that vexes Tim, I can support!"

<Valerius> knowledge , he is dealing with these rucks

<Vandoren> Gidduppp!!

<Ruik> How can he?

<Dale> this Tim certainly seems popular

<Valerius> indeed

<Vandoren> Dale, you have no idea!

<FrilonDM> FRIAR : "Tim is a dangerous, deceitful, unpentian fellow."

<Ruik> Wyk: I say we just wup 'is ass and be done with it. Who's with me?

<Valerius> are we agreed then ?

<Dale> well I will follow on and live and learn with your permission

<Vandoren> He's a sleazy bastard and we will all be there when he goes down..

<Dale> Renton says let's go

<Vandoren> Agreed

<Ruik> Let me spy on him, then friends. Wyk and I!

<Vandoren> I will gladly take part

<Dale> oh I spy so Destin's not the only sneaky one around here!

<Valerius> yes but perhaps minus Wyk

<Ruik> Wyk: Spy? Kick his ass!

<FrilonDM> GARNFELLOW : "I fear that skullduggery is not my strong suit. If only it were a stand-up fight with that rogue!"

<Vandoren> here ... here Wyk can be more useful elsewhere.

<Valerius> take Dale he is unknown

<Ruik> Wyk: Fine by me boys.

<Dale> anything I can do to help

<Dale> I'm not that sneaky though, more of a sword man

<Vandoren> I could use some help like a strong fighter ... Mendelor ... Hamral?

<Valerius> let's lay low and let these lads work

<Dale> Renton I'd go with Vandoren

<Ruik> Indeed, Dale. I'll show you the ropes, so to speak.

<Vandoren> Stealth is good, but strength saves our necks.

<FrilonDM> GARNFELLOW : "Well, in the meantime, why don't we enjoy the evening?"

<FrilonDM> The fat knight sets bow to string and begins to play a lively folk tune. Conversation stops abruptly; the patrons of the Boar begin nodding their heads and then beating on the table in Time to the music as it dips and soars, soars and dips. Bardolph, a wild-haired young lad close to Ruik in age, leaps up and begins to dance, to the delight of the patrons.

<Ruik> Wyk: Well let's do something other than stroking the sausage, here!

<Valerius> DONT FIGHT HIM JUST FIND OUT ABOUT HIS NEXT SHIPMENT OUT OF TOWN

<Dale> quietly listening

<Dale> Renton doesn't want to go he is too recognizable

<Ruik> Yes, yes...

<Dale> who is going?

<Ruik> Am I going?

<Vandoren> Agreed Valerius, but there has to be more than a couple wimps (sorry, but true) to fend of the tough ones

<Valerius> Ruik and Dale I would think

<Dale> I'm for it

<Ruik> Then there are things I should teach the good lad first.

<Vandoren> I suggest Ruik, Mot, Dale, Mendelor ...I will join, but have to sign off soon

<Ruik> Me, too.

<Vandoren> And Renton

<Vandoren> I said Ruik...Are thee Drunk?? Another round for my friends!!

<Valerius> mot starts to dance

<Valerius> perhaps just Vandoren and Ruik

<Vandoren> Mot Mot likes his snot and drink it so does he

<Valerius> Mot says wheeeeeee

<Dale> excitable fellow

<FrilonDM> FRIAR : "So Ruik's certainly going. Could both Vandoren and Dale go, also?"

<Dale> another ale for the portly fellow.......give us another Garfell??? good sir

<Valerius> Ruik this is your specialty you decide who you want!

<Dale> I am certainly not opposed to having a look around Heremac

<FrilonDM> G: "Sir Will Garnfellow, at your service."

<Ruik> Let the two of us go for now.

<Vandoren> I will go... but must sign off, please update me on when we head out. May the five bless you all!

<FrilonDM> FRIAR : "Yes, let's have Ruik decide!"

<Dale> Renton . . . let's go boys

*** Vandoren has left #Frilond

<Ruik> The two of us will go around a bit tonight.

<FrilonDM> (Mayhap we should start wrapping things up)

<Dale> you and Vandoren or Dale?

<Ruik> Dale

<Valerius> It's up to you

<FrilonDM> FRIAR : "Dale and Ruik it is!"

<Ruik> Dale is new and less conspicuous.

<Dale> okay

<FrilonDM> (The log from this session will be uploaded to the website tonight)

<Ruik> Cool!

<Dale> Renton says farewell friends

<Valerius> so are we done?

<FrilonDM> (Almost)

<Ruik> See you guys around. It was virtual.

<Bear> Rowlf!

*** Bear has quit IRC (Leaving)

<Ruik> See ya!

<Valerius> early April

*** Ruik has left #Frilond

<FrilonDM> Yeah, that sounds good.

<FrilonDM> So what did you think of the IRC?

<Dale> early April is good for me Monday or Tuesday night? not April 5 says Ed

<Dale> it was okay . . . kind of hard to put things together

<FrilonDM> Maybe that second week—the first week is my first week at KA

<Dale> second week is find
