Cheers from here too.

I'm happy to be here. A year is an accomplishment for sure. Thanks for all the work you do Jaded.

[Breila]

Yes, the year has passed quickly. After the serious friction we had in the second adventure, the group has now learned to kind of work together.

And thank you for all your work, Jaded, I know it takes a lot of time and thought.

[JadedDM]

Thanks all. I do put a lot of work into this game. Unlike Unlikely Heroes, which is mostly modules strung together, everything in Lost Souls is original (except maybe for a stolen map here or there). I feel like it's all worth it, though, as long as everyone is having a good time.

It's still hard adjusting to the pace of a play-by-post. In my chat-based games, after a year we'd be around level 7-8 (usually the point where we stop and start playing something else). But here we are a year later, and still only around level 2-3.

The Mending spell will not clean clothes, but an abjuration cantrip would:

Abjuration Cantrips
Abjuration cantrips tend to be practical, often employed by apprentices to clean up rooms, dust shelves, sweep and polish floors, wash or dry clothes, aid the caster's balance, and warm or cool foods and drinks. Minor wards can also be established (10' radius maximum) against insects or rodents, or an area can be enchanted to stay cool or warm. The cleaning cantrips may either animate cleaning utensils or create ghostly phantom utensils.

Arei can't be bothered with all that!

[Breila]

Thanks for the advice.

[Jenara]

Would you mind if I made a few tweaks to Arei's description and used it to add a few details (like meeting Andar in Hashadeth etc?)

[JadedDM]

You're referring to the Description thread? Yeah, go ahead.

[Jenara]

Thanks, want to do some housekeeping like.

Oh inventory update:
She'll loose the old shirt, and roll the trousers up to get washed, perhaps Oura can do it.
Oh, if she wanted to transfer the contents of the bladder into the bottle, is it possible?
And she''ll loose the walking stick.

[JadedDM]

Done and done. And yeah, she has an empty bottle on her, so that won't be a problem.

After getting her backpack back, though, she's now in light encumbrance again.

[Jenara]

I kinda guessed that would be the case, not much she can do about it right now.
How much are the pistols worth, btw?

[JadedDM]

A good pistol can be worth up to 1,000 gold pieces.

[Jenara]

What I assumed, why she took them, means the party gets "something" out of the adventure, ooo does that count as XP for treasure bonus? lol

[JadedDM]

Oddly enough, I hadn't even thought of that. I felt bad that the party missed out on all of the loot. Tialis stole the stuff visible, and there was a secret compartment in the basement (close to where Frisno was standing) that had a bunch of gemstones (worth even more than what Tialis took) and the clockwork spider blueprints (worth a fortune, depending on who they were sold to). So it's good to know they'll get a little cash out of this after all.

If she sells them, then she'll get XP for her share, yes.

[Jenara]

Money wise I was thinking of the whole group, 500gp or thereabouts each should keep us going for some time.
After all, the last two sets of treasure she found, she gave away...
