//OOC, i already have these written down and do sometimes reference them when in a group (though he does use his healing spells a lot more frequently, he'll use these for things other than simple flesh wounds or in conjuction with spells too). so both IC and OOC, this is in case i lose my notes. I also thought it would make a nice journal entry. :) //


*Badger smoothed down his mossy green waistcoat as he sat in a small library. Thin golden threads embroidered it with golden buttons and he had sunny yellow sleeves coming out of it. A misty blue cloak bearing the symbol of Aeridin hugged his shoulders, matching the Livegiver leaf necklace that hung round his neck. Flipping his notebook to the next page (books were expensive, he only really had this one book) he shuffled through some things pulling out a few of his unkempt scrolls full of notes and diagrams on herbs.
Holding it over the page he began to press some hot wax into all four corners so they sealed themselves to the page.

...I know what you're thinking, yes, he could have just copied them out, truth was, he just couldn't be bothered.

Most of these notes stayed in his mind. He was however, afraid of some of his knowledgable references getting lost.*

Thyme ~ valuable antiseptic properties, an infusion applied to the skin relieves insect bites and works as a general skin tonic.


*instead of the usual diagram, a sample is stuck  next to the notes catmint*

Catmint~ taken hot, the tea can bring down a high temperature during a fever
[/FONT]

Hyssop ~ A mild infusion of the leaves will help a black eye (soak in a cloth then apply to area)


Dandelion ~ a tea will relieve the kidneys/liver of poison.
[/FONT]

Basil ~ helps with travel sickness. (Make sure to have some if a group are on a boat trip)
[/FONT]

Elder ~ The berries make a particularly soothing cough and cold syrup


Garlic ~ antiseptic that cures diarrhoea, gout and hot flushes.
[/FONT]

Marigold ~ Tea helps ease tired and swollen feet.

*the forest gnome was strolling along the path out of Hlint, towards the lake. It was a beautiful day and the sun shone brightly as he held onto a coil of thick rope that followed onto a shaggy bluish-grey haired ox trundling on behind with various herbs, medical kits and other doodads tied onto it.

Suddenly bandits jumped out of nowhere behind cackling with glee. SLASH... one rope on the ox snapped and flailed to the floor, half of the gnome's vials and such clinking onto the floor and smashing. Badger gasped as though he himself had been physically hurt.. though he wasn't.
One or two gems rolled off out a small sack on the top.

The Ox flailed out a hoof and caught one of them up the chin knocking them back a little puffing out its nostrils angrily. Badger watched for a moment in horror, its not like he could do anything to help.
SLASH, the blade whipped at the ox's leg and it collapsed to the ground.
One bandit started coming his way.
#@*%!, he thought to himself.
 ... what? I may a cleric in white and such with glasses... No-ones perfect. In fact, those white robes are a darn pain to wash. Maybe brown would be better? Or Blue. Blue is very nice.

And he wiped a tear at the loss of his faithful ox and made a run for it.
Running away doesn't make you a coward, but it does make sure you're alive.
When he got to town he leaned on his knees panting, then unfurled a crumpled note he found with the bandits.... running a hand through his white hair, now slightly moist with sweat

But with one hand only to type with I am getting about 20 words per minute.


I'm sure if you do play there'll be some nice people around who'll be patient with your typing. :)

And I hope it gets better soon :)

*Keppli walks down the cobbled floor in Hempstead looking down at the floor as she walks. She lifts her head slowly as the Angel's shop comes into view and stops as she comes opposite to the door. Turning to face it a moment she just stares at it before sniffling and pulling something out behind her cloak...
She puts what appears to be a glass bottle near to the entrance...  On the label is a simply drawn smiley face and in childish writing the words "Keppli's Wacky Whiskey".

"There ya go mate... " Cranes her neck looking up then wipes a tear before making her way... some sobbing sounds can be heard as she walks away..*

*as she scans the note rather quickly she scowls and crumples it in her hand and punches the wall next to her*

"Idiot.." *...she growls to herself before carrying on where she was off to*

"Why do I even bother with em."

Inquiring minds seek information on Rare Breeds of dog, hound, or wolf, rarely seen in their native land.  Information on any such animal that leads to a successful live capture will be rewarded.

Lavender Nightshade, One-Eyed Harpy


*a pigeon drops a note in by the one-eyed harpy*

Lavender,

You might know... I'm a bit of a dog-person.
I don't know what you're up to, but if you try and capture any wolf... rare or not... well, ye've been warned.

*keppli grits her teeth and fires a flurry of arrows at an archery target at Wolfswood. Many hit the centre and some even split down the middle where they land in the exact same spot! It looks like she's been up for most of the night before... doing all sorts of 'training'.*

"Ain't long now... they're gonna test me in some way. Hopefully... this lone wolf will get ta join a small pack. Might be nice ta be in the pack again, and much as I like ta think I can take care of my home myself... I'd do a lot better in a team."

*she pulls out two swords, once blazing in an orange glow, the other crackling with sparks surrounding it. Roaring like some sort of animal she leaps to a combat dummy working together with her big wolf beside her as they duck, weave and slash at it almost in unison.*

Halfling stuck part two....:(


This time went into 106 Hlint (Trentons house I think), to use the portal there and somehow upon entering ended up on the other side of the barrier. Since the owner of the house is the only one who can move the barriers... she cant get out.

[ATTACH]15992[/ATTACH]

*written on a scruffy piece of parchment which seems to be a space from something else that he ripped off to write on*
I walked slowly down the town path at midnight... it is quiet, dark. Nothing stirs save the grass fluttering softly in the breeze, the shuffling clink of armour from a few guards at the town's edge. I grip my stick tightly as I reach the crypt and open the door, the dark seemingly has consumed the place I thought to myself as I peered at the opening.
I walk in the Light of Aeridin... Or so I try to. But something I've always had as a child... a fear of the dark. Of what it holds. I remember catching a firefly one time in a small jar, I would have it close to me at night to keep the dark away.
It sounds silly but true, and one must travel to dark places if he is to bring light to it. Perhaps I will never find out the reason for it, as we all know, the dark cannot hurt you... can it?

**at that point he murmured a few words the tip of his walking stick glowing slightly so some of the stone floor and walls a little further past the entrance became visible. With a heavy sigh he took a few steps inside...**
