the party has 650g a stamina potion and two health potions a peace
+1d6f means that they get a extra d6 of armor in forests due to forest cloaks
stamina potions allow a extra plate of movement for d6 turns

we will stay the night outside of the town (cheaper) and continue in the morning

[darkpaladin]

Ok so the next part of the quest
(if you want something from the blacksmith you can still get it)
The next morning we walk down the path and here the sound of a conflict
Should we investigate or ignore it
My vote is investigate  
This is really hard to keep up

[Silverdream]

Swift will sell the armor and swords and staff to buy a crossbow and spare knife.

I agree to investigating it.

[Unlimited Overkill]

Investigate.  Cautiously.  I'll give ranged support again.

[darkpaladin]

ok sorry i have been busy lately, so here is a little filler while i load the grand finally


backstory time


steve: so, why are you hunting this necromancer
tim: i am not, i am hunting the ghost that has influenced him
steve: influenced
tim: yes, this particular necromancer is harmless, but he has been mislead by the ghost
steve: who is this ghost?
tim: one of the servants of vark, overlord of the dark legions
steve: the vark, the one who almost overtook the empire almost 100 years ago?
tim: the same
steve: but he was struck down by the kings champion!
tim: i didn't kill him, simply banished him back into the other reality he came from
steve: you!? you banished him?
tim: yep, thats part of banishing a creature like him, they curse you to live until they personally can kill you.
steve: so you are nearing 200 years old?
tim: i don't like to be reminded of that, anyway if we don't stop that necromancer he will summon vark again and he will destroy the empire.
steve: couldn't you defeat him again?
tim: i doubt it, he will purposefully hunt me down before anything else he does, and he will be stronger

there is the backstory
i am uploading the last part now
