Like me for example... I jest, I'm not nearly as intelligent as I like to imagine.

As often pointed out in D&D, Wisdom and Intelligence are two very different stats. One for books, one for street smarts. I'm not certain where remembering to buy food would fall in that, but I'm guessing wisdom.

Sunday 9 Desnus 4710 We were assaulted by bandits as we readied for bed. They’re getting either bolder or more desperate, and I’m not sure which. One of them had a Diadem of Vast Intelligence. I gifted it to Theofrid, to aid in his casting. As much as I keep insisting he’s part of the team, he still hasn’t seemed to accept it. Perhaps he needs more responsibility, to show that we really do trust him. I told him he is now in charge of our funds. If we need something, we will go t

Or if they use protection. As long as the seed doesn't enter Jason, they would be safe.

Dr. Marin does share some of the blame for putting the idea in his head though.

JASON The neko woke up cold and alone, fresh from a dream about a god granting him a den below the earth, a feeling of enclosed safety washing over him. Jason heard the sounds of whispered prayer, an eye opening to find Dylan kneeling in a group of four lit votives of different colours. “Lynestra of the Sun, elven goddess of the West, grant me your light that I might shine bright upon those around me today. Teach me to see the positive in life, and to help those around me throug

Oathday 6 Desnus 4710 Theofrid introduced me to an interesting theory on jewelled rice tonight. He helped me cook the recipe, mentioning that it had been one of Jaethal’s favourite meals for its tendency to leave the eater feeling lighter. Supposedly it was how Tartuccio was able to travel so much faster than us. Already the gnome is proving invaluable. I will need to make sure we stock up on ingredients when I get a chance. We walked near straight west, in search of the Thorn R

Toilday 4 Desnus 4710 And with that, our fight with Tartuccio is over. I write this entry safe and sound in Oleg’s Trading Post. We arrived late, but tomorrow, we celebrate, and the day after that, we journey south to the Stag Lord’s fort. Though I am thinking about taking Jhod to the Temple of the Elk, just so he can see it. He’s already asked my blessing to restore it once the Stag Lord has been defeated, and I believe I will allow him to do so. It will be nice to have the Stag God

The disease is no joke. How long was Jordan able to hold out when he met Lysander? Or Paelias when he met his mates? Having a virus in you that lives solely to make you reproduce copies of it in someone else is rough.

DEVYN A knock on the door startled Devyn, the wolf tearing his eyes away from his brother’s back. It didn’t even look bruised, but he knew it was causing the neko a lot of pain. Opening the door, Devyn looked at the neko on the other side, Damian holding out a bag of clothes. “Hey, your father brought these by,” he said. “Oh, and I know you just showered, but Lysander mentioned Jason might feel better in the pool down at the gym. He’ll need someone watching him of course, b

Day 2 Under the Old Sycamore We had to backtrack almost completely to the kobold entrance. As it turned out, we went down the wrong passage, and hours of fighting spiders and centipedes had never needed to happen. Stay to the right. That became our mantra in the tunnels. Is there a split? Stay to the right. Did we get turned around in that fight? Stay to the right anyway. I can sincerely say I hope to never see these tunnels again. And the fact that we hadn’t thought to bring torches

There has only ever been one werewolf who could do what in other settings would be an alpha or hybrid shift, and that is Itumak from The Alliance. And that in and of itself is only because he mated with an alien who sort of healed the disease partway, to the point where Itunak is only able to shift partway.

The amurrun stood in a circle, a ritual book open before him, showing the words of a modified protection spell. Mythara had set up one of their rooms with a ritual chamber, strange blue candles and chalk lining much of the floor in the shape of a kite shield. “Arithmancy is one of the more arduous studies of magic,” the dragon said, standing outside the door. “It is exacting, but when done properly, it allows for a magnified flow of energy. What I have done is broken the spell down into a m

Sunday 2 Desnus 4710 We followed Tartuccio to an old sycamore before we had to rest. My dreams were troubled by a burning house and a cold river. A voice whispered, “Shrike River”. It would seem something wishes us to travel there. Try as I might, I could not get back to sleep, so I stood watch over our little camp through the night. Today will be hell, but we cannot afford to waste time one one person’s exhaustion. Perhaps Tristian would have something to help me shake off my f

That is one series I will have to look into. My reading list is stretching out again and I love it.

Depending on the mythos/biology, a nice silver dagger pressed in various places and held to give a decent burn, maybe a silver poker on arms or legs, before castration with another silver object of choice.... and I'm going to stop there...

Fireday 30 Gozran 4710 Ran into a pair of bandits today. Spent the rest of the day walking. Reached the tomb at nightfall, will explore tomorrow. Starday 1 Desnus 4710 The tomb was full of looters, presumably Tartuccio’s given the note we found on a mage. It begs the question of how the gnome could afford mercenaries, but then, that question could probably be answered simply. Iravetti. They were laughably easy to deal with; the warriors were dead before t

He was so full. Reinard had no right being this big for his body size. Galen wasn’t sure exactly what was bigger, the Faro’s dick or the small plum sized bulb tying them together. The tiger let his hole tighten, trying to squeeze the knot, to push it out of him. Not that he wanted it out, he just wanted to see if he could move it. A soft moan slipped out of his bedmate, Galen chuckling quietly. He still needed to finish himself. Lifting his butt, the tiger wrapped his hand around the barbed

Toilday 27 Gozran 4710 Made it back to Thorn Ford today. Will head up to Oleg’s for a rest before searching for Tartuccio’s tomb. Morale is high, despite a night of stormy weather. Wealday 28 Gozran 4710 Pushed through the night to Oleg’s. More to come tomorrow. Too tired. Oathday 29 Gozran 4710 Today marks fifteen days in the Stolen Lands. Most of that time has been spent walking. Well, riding. But still. It’s exhausting work, just get

JASON He could get his voice back. Jason couldn’t believe it. Ten years of silence could end just like that. A couple days of healing, and he would be talking again. “I don’t care! He’s my son and I want to see him!” And just like that, his happy thoughts vanished. Jason recoiled back against the wall as the door to the room opened again, Devyn stepping in front of him with a snarl. Margaret pushed through the door, hurrying toward the neko. “You shouldn’t have rolled

Fireday 23 Gozran 4710 We took a wrong turn somewhere. It added a good six hour walk to our journey trying to backtrack, but finally we’re sitting outside the Temple of the Elk. The fog here is unbelievable, I can barely see forty feet ahead of me. Add the dark of night to that, and… well, I’m not sure we should be heading into the temple. I hate to do it, but I’m calling the day a wash. We’ll tackle the temple tomorrow morning. Starday 24 Gozran 4710 The temp

You have to make money somehow. Who knows, maybe some good will come out of it? Maybe not.

They were lucky to be free. A fact Amnor Sen was constantly reminded of every morning and night. The paladin really didn't care at this point. Five days out of Finderplain and a day out of Bug Harbor, Amnor Sen was done with the whole thing. The elf had never seen such utter disregard for life, at least before starting the journey north from Anuli. They had spent two days looking for the prisoners. Finally, even the other caravaners were complaining to Niss that they needed to continue trav

At risk of thread jacking, this made my night. Thank you so much
