//bio for reference
Name: Leathan Lampter
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Class: Wizard
Age: 32
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Deity: none
Description:
Unkept dirty blonde hair hangs to the shoulders of this lean, nearly six foot tall man. The wrinkles around his green eyes suggest either years of over indulgences or sleepless nights. He has a calm demeanor and a relaxed stance, possibly indicating confidence or apathy.
Bio:
Sipping on a mug of apple juice in The Bullseye Inn, Leathan glances to the man next to him "This is Center you say? I haven't been in these parts in years it seems." He winces a bit and rubs the faint, fading remnant of a rope burn on his neck. "Funny story how I got here, quicker then walking, but I wouldn't recommend it. Woke up laying in those blood red flowers that circle that big stone out back. Pardon me I should start from the beginning. It all began when I was waiting in that blasted cold cell and I heard the bells start to toll. That sound gets a man to thinking 'bout what he's done and what he ain't done. Tried to lead a good life, ain't never hurt no one intentionally." He shakes his head slowly and continues on "I know those gallows are waiting for me, now all a man can do is wait for the final stroke of the bells. And as the last bell rings signifying the sixth hour past noon, the guards march me out through the streets. The onlookers, the cheers, the jeers, it all comes crashing in on you. My life ain't turned out like I had thought all them years ago when I was just kneehigh to a grasshopper. Before I know it, I'm standing there and the noose is being slid over my head. I tried to plead my innocence once again but the words just weren't coming. A quick drop and a sudden stop is all I can tell you about what happened before I woke up out by the stone." Leathan pauses for a moment to take another sip of juice and studies the man listening to his tale and mimics his question "Where'd it happen? A little village down south in Co'rys, north of Vehl."
Glancing around the inn quickly, Leathan answers the man's next question "What'd I do? I didn't do nothing, except be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The constable swore on his mothers grave that it was me who killed Kranton Weller's daughter, and nothing I said or did could change their minds. 'Course some coins from the constable helped the judge make his decision. Just cause they're the law, don't mean they're fair or right." Tapping the side of his nose knowingly "Usually the biggest dung heap in town can be found where the courthouse is. Huh? How'd I end up in them flowers by the rock?" He drums his fingers on the bar as he continues on "Well, near as I can reckon it started back when I was a small lad and my father was taking me up to Fort Wayfare for my uncles funeral. I remember passing through these parts and seeing those ruins on the stone. I was always an inquisistive boy...least that's what Pa always said. I ran right over and study those ruins, tracing them, trying to commit them to memory so I could draw them once we got back home. Must been my lucky day or just plain fate that I got lucky enough to get bound to the stone. I learned years later those stones can bind a man to it and call him back from the brink of death. Not sure if it's worth it or not to tell ya the truth of it." He studies the man's reaction as he wets his lips with more juice. Nodding as he answers the man's next question "Pa was a researcher of sorts and he taught me for years. Mixing different powders and oils together, how to make a spark with your fingers, making light from the air, he had me so interested I studied day and night, trying to learn all he could teach me of the Al'noth."
He glancees around the tavern and leans nearer the man as he lowers his voice "Now those rofies, I ain't saying they're all bad, they think they're doing good for the people. But should a man pay a fine he can't afford or spend time away from his farm and family in jail for stealing food to feed his family? Laws are only as good as those who make them, and ain't many places I've been that a man ain't bent a law or two for the better of his family. Now I ain't saying we let those Corathians or them dark ears have their way, but you can try to outlaw them all you want and what's that get you at the end of the day. A lot of talk and filth walking the land hiding in disguises. I say let a man defend his own as he can and to the pits with the laws. Most folk do what's right as it is, they just want to see their family be healthy and hale. Laws only take their toll after the fact, a man's gotta have the freedom to act in the moment and protect what's his. If you don't let the bugger get away you never have to track him down to apply their bunk laws."
"Nope, he wasn't no powerful mage or nothing, just a man doing his best to raise a family. He knew enough of working with the Al'noth to earn a decent living, we weren't rich by any means, but Pa always found a way to get me enough books to learn how to weave the Al'noth. Over the years after Pa's death, I kept up on my studies." Let's out a long, quiet sigh "Little good it did me. A few lies, a bag of coins was all it took to best all my studying. I coulda tried using what I know to help me escape, but I ain't one for killing those who don't deserve it. Even the constable and judge, while I ain't liking them much, I'll see them deposed, embarrassed, humiliated, not killed. I've spent the last fifteen years studying what my father was teaching me about the Al'noth, whether it was with him when he was alive or with his books after his passing. I've learned enough to know that I want to learn more. That's the only way I'll be able to best Constable Harnel and Judge Welton. But I will get my revenge." Leathan winks at the man and stands with a groan, muttering as he turns to head up the stairs to his room for the night "I got to find a better way to travel."

Beautiful priestess seeks escorts and miners to obtain titanium. I will provide The Mistress's Blessings on those who can shelter me from breaking a sweat. No dragonlovers, shineys, or death mongers need apply. As much as I would relish seeing your kind put to the whip, and not in a fun way, I have little time to train you as you should be.
I offer five thousand true a head for any who wish to escort a lovely visage such as myself. Payable upon my safe return, and with titanium ore. I will pay handsomely for a capable smelter as well, if we cannot agree on other arrangements.
Should any be interested in such a venture, any coin or items found during our journey shall be split equally amongst all in attendance, excluding myself as I will be the sole beneficiary of the titanium.
For you shorties, that might be reading this...that means I get all the titanium.
Leave your mark on the market boards if interested or send word to 'The Most Beautiful Flower in the Garden, Care of Essa Tanario, Hilm Castle"
//looking to kick this off tonight, around 8 eastern, 5 pacific. roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes from the time of this post. pm, tell, or reply here is fine

For those who took part in the first installment of the quest "From One" please post any day or time preferences for the next session. I'm thinking weekends are best, since my weekday schedule is goofey. The first weekend in May is out for me, but after that, I'm available.
Also, if you have anything you want to discuss IC in the meantime, feel free to do so here as well.

Rumors spread up and down the Zainge River of odd occurrences and strange happenings in the hamlet of Turth on the river. Children's toys seemingly coming to life, farming implements attacking their owner, and household tools lashing out at any who come near. Many say the locals must have had a good harvest and have been indulging in their cups a bit much to have such outlandish stories coming out. Others suggest with a wink and a nod, that those river folk ain't never been right in the head.

Word spreads of an agitated woman trying to convince the guards to send more troops out to investigate the caverns known as Skull Crusher.
"Bite your tongue! You expect me to wander those hills and caves!? I had the misfortune to stumble in there once..I ain't going back! " she slurs at the guards. As she eyes up a few of the guardsmen "You should send out your troops..an..um...investigate...." Adjusting her top and batting her eyes "You better stay here and protect me handsome..just on the chance they don't come back..." she mutters oh so softly as she turns "Mistress Xeen see the troops busy for a long...long time"
//looking to get a trip together to venture into the Skull Crusher caverns and who knows what after. Trip is dependent on the group assembled. Looking to do this around 10 eastern or middle of the night gmt 2 am. meet up at Fort Miritrix and we can decide from there

*Glancing around the crowded Scamps, Essa sips from a goblet of wine contemplating the travels and scars of her past*
"Oh Miss Hedessa, we need help to..." *her mind blurs in the many requests for help as she grumbles to herself* "They always tell me they need someone young, willing, and able...they need someone old enough to know better. They want someone to do their dirty work!" *sighs* "But at times that one kiss for doing what was asked was well worth it...if only Larry woulda shaved first."
*she rolls the wine on her tongue as she stares absently at the patrons of the Scamps* "Essa c'mon, we gotta help these poor buggers" *shakes her head slowly recalling the memories, thinking to herself* "How could I ever let that crooked grin get to me, missing tooth and all? He talked me into venturing into swamps, caves, stinky places a woman of my quality has no right going."
*she eyes a patron up and down for a few moments drawn out of her thougts, a smile creeping across her face* "He will do...for now." *sighs as she watches him stumble back to a table of his comrades, and falls back into her thoughts*
"Angels!" *takes a long drink as she let's the thought linger* "Essa, we have to go mining...Essa, we need sand....Essa, there's a customer, wake up!...Essa, wake up the sun has past it's peak long ago!" "As if I'm some sorta creature built by gnomes! Sheesh..wadda they expect from me? A girl needs her beauty sleep after all! Go, go, go..that's all they want from me. Why can't we just enjoy the wine..what more do they want? I bring them the greatest gift, and they snub their noses or tell me it's like water! WATER!!!! They go through their lives talking of love and marriage and have the gall to call My Mistress's wine water!" "Oh Essa, love is what is most important in life.... Essa, without love what would we have?...Essa, marriage is sacred, I'm married, I can't have fun." *snorts as she recalls the past* "If only they would open themselves to what could be..the fun they could enjoy. They put their blinders on and trudge along...if only they would drink the wine and relish with me the sweet escape...live life to what could be. "
*sighs as she stands from the table catching the eye of a patron with a wink. A nod and a smile before strutting off*

Description: Hedessa Tanario was receiving no xp at all for any kills. It didn't matter who landed the killing blow, whether it was her or not, she still received nothing. Tried this grouped with others and solo, both cases she was not gaining xp.
Location: Silkwood Forest (render, and werewolves)
Spider Cave (no xp for any of the spiders)
Verified:
Reproducable: Yep, replicated with every kill.

*Essa sips from her goblet watching the other patrons in the Scamp's with a small smile. Draining her goblet she picks up a quill and dabs it in the ink pot*
Where to begin?
The kiss of death
I've felt it so many times, I nearly yearn for more. **giggles* But, then who would enliven all others lives if I was gone. There's been so many that have passed through my arms and bed, it's almost seemed a dream. The people I've met and the places I've seen, if only others would take the time to enjoy what's right infront of them.......at least when I pass by.
*opens another bottle and refreshes her goblet, muttering* "Where was I again? Oh! Yes, who's getting what when I die..that's right."
If I should feel that last kiss, my treasures should be passed on as such:
Benji, or some may know him as Benjamin Poetr, a merchant getting on in his years, I leave to him my most prized possesion besides the wine collection, my mirror. Along with the mirror I wish for Benji to have my slippers. (Alaamiathelas Slippers)
Storold, the handsome balding one with the talent to run off as many women as he tries to marry, I leave my cherished collection of whips. (lion, malar, adler, and bloodly lash)
Caerwyn, the cutie that never drinks enough, I leave my fine collection of wine. (dependent on how thirsty she is, the quantity will vary)
Alatriel, or Ella, or just plain Elf, I leave my boots that make the spider legs feel good (boots of arachnea)
Jaelle, the minx, I leave the promise I will collect on our bargain we never agreed upon should we meet in the beyond
Chaynce, the one who so wishes to be a torie, I leave my wish for better judgement and collection of the Mistress's stardust (Xeen dust, however many she may own at the time)
The Angels Guild, I leave the balance of my bank account after a proper statue is erected in my honor, if it is not placed infront of Tariana's then they get nothing.
The Mistress's Temple, I leave all my powdered scents and other worldly belongings
Ulgrids, ten thousand True for sharp blades to shave with and scented soaps (a deduction of the coins before dispersing to the Angels)
Cherish the laughter, remember the tears,
Hedessa Tanario

Citizens and travelers be wary, vines have crept near the gates. The pawner struggles to remove the threat, but he seems to be at a stalemate with it.
//must have got drug there. Sammie can't handle it so if a dm could remove it that would be great. Tried the dm channel, but no one around.

Hedessa Tanario has a Sunlight sling with 50 charges on it, yet no way to use those charges. I have tried oxing it, but that did not help, leaving it the same as before stuffing it in the ox pack.
Any suggestions on how to fix this are appreciated.
