Sandy Posted December 16, 2011 Author Posted December 16, 2011 I will move to section C3. As Cinna hits her shovel to the ground, she instanty hits something hard. She discovers a buried anchor from the ground. "Hey, that looks like something I could use!" Shrugging her shoulders, Cinna hands the anchor to Bluto. Anchor - WP:6, suitable to dream sailors
Darkdragon Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 "Bluto, this thing looks as big as you, but if you can use it great!" I will search at location B3 next.
Sandy Posted December 16, 2011 Author Posted December 16, 2011 I will search at location B3 next. Nothing comes up. Digged locations: B3 - nothing C2 - nothing C3 - Anchor
Darkdragon Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) "Well shucks, these are some good-at-hiding scorpions." Moving on to B4 OOC: Do we need to worry about re-digging a spot in case they run around or just one dig and move on? Edited December 16, 2011 by darkdragon
Sandy Posted December 16, 2011 Author Posted December 16, 2011 Moving on to B4OOC: Do we need to worry about re-digging a spot in case they run around or just one dig and move on? OoC: No, the monsters stay put. Again Cinna digs and finds nothing. Digged locations: B3 - nothing B4 - nothing C2 - nothing C3 - Anchor
swils Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) "We'll be here all night, at this rate. I think we should just dig up the rest of row C before taking another break, unless we dig up something interesting. And we could switch off shovelin' duties if ya get tired, Cinna." OOC: Clarifcation *Clicky* Edited December 17, 2011 by swils
Brickdoctor Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 I look for any tracks or other signs that could show us where the scorpions are.

I think we should just dig up the rest of row C before taking another break, unless we dig up something interesting. And we could switch off shovelin' duties if ya get tired, Cinna." OoC: I won't allow it. There's no point in just allowing you to "dig everywhere", since the purpose is to make you spend time digging. C4 Nope, nothing. Digged locations: B3 - nothing B4 - nothing C2 - nothing C3 - Anchor C4 - nothing I look for any tracks or other signs that could show us where the scorpions are. Bartholomew finds all sorts of tracks on the sand. Footprints, pawprints, and tracks left by various little critters such as ants, beetles, crabs and indeed scorpions. Where do they all lead is impossible to say.
Brickdoctor Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 I speak in Scorpion-language. <"Here, Golden Scorpions! Come to daddy!">
Sandy Posted December 18, 2011 Author Posted December 18, 2011 C16 Again, Cinna digs up only sand. Digged locations: B3 - nothing B4 - nothing C2 - nothing C3 - Anchor C4 - nothing C16 - nothing
Sandy Posted December 18, 2011 Author Posted December 18, 2011 I speak in Scorpion-language. <"Here, Golden Scorpions! Come to daddy!"> OoC: Sorry, missed this earlier. Docken hears a thin voice below the sand. "<Thewe'th no Gowden Thcowpionth hewe now, jutht uth weguwaw bwack and wed oneth. The thiny dudeth onwy come up to bathe in the thunwight. Sowwy!>"
Brickdoctor Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Looks like we're going to have to come back in the daytime.
Professor Flitwick Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Looks like we're going to have to come back in the daytime. "Well, Mr. Docken, if my calculations are correct this could work to our favour; if we sleep till morning, find a scorpion during the day, and then head back to town, it should be night again, allowing us to visit the Necromancer/rescue Mr. Hopet/etc."
Darkdragon Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 "Oh goodness. Now I am all sweaty for nothing. I think we should head back to town now, if we can get there before daybreak then we can go to the Necromancer's. However, if you guys don't think we can make it to town before the end of the night then we will sleep until morning as suggested."

"Seein' as we're already here and have a few holes dug up, I'm with Thothy. Unless anyone wants to go get an extra shovel. But I'm rather enjoying watchin' Cinna do all the hard work!" He laughs.
Sandy Posted December 19, 2011 Author Posted December 19, 2011 The party can return to the city on this same night. If they choose to go to Kalakita Bog instead, it will take the remainder of the night.
Professor Flitwick Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 "Oh goodness. Now I am all sweaty for nothing. I think we should head back to town now, if we can get there before daybreak then we can go to the Necromancer's. However, if you guys don't think we can make it to town before the end of the night then we will sleep until morning as suggested." "I feel we should stay here, Ms. Cinna. Going back to the city, only to have to come back and wait for another day, would only waste time. I feel we'd be much better off spending the night here, and finding the scorpions in the morning."
Darkdragon Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 "Alright, we will stay here tonight and find the scorpions as soon as they come out for some sun."
Sandy Posted December 19, 2011 Author Posted December 19, 2011 ~SECOND DAY IN SALMANDA~ The party wakes up to the bright morning sun on the sands of the Shipwreck Shore. Having learned that Golden Scorpions can only be encountered during daylight, the party decided to rest for the night and continue digging the sand after the dawn broke. That is, Cinna would continue to shovel while the men watched her work. Where would Cinna dig next? Digged locations: B3 - nothing B4 - nothing C2 - nothing C3 - Anchor C4 - nothing C16 - nothing
Brickdoctor Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 I continue to call for the scorpions in their language.
Sandy Posted December 19, 2011 Author Posted December 19, 2011 I continue to call for the scorpions in their language. Again, Bartholomew hears a tiny peeping sound from the sand below. "<Don't you even twy! You want to kiww me fow my venom, but you wiww have to find me fiwtht!>"
Darkdragon Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 After a not-so-restful night's sleep, due to dreams of digging until her fingers fell off, Cinna awakes and glares at her shovel a moment before resuming her task. "Here we go, wish me luck boys. Since that's all you can do to help. Who's making breakfast?" She smiles as much as possible and heads over to the area next to her last failure hole. C15
