So we decide to go look for Loot!

 

*****

 

You decide to explore a hidden cave rumored to contain ancient Water relics. After a short trek through the forest, you find the cave entrance, hidden by a curtain of vines. The air inside is cool and damp, and faint blue light emanates from moss-covered walls. Deeper within, you spot a shimmering pool at the cave’s heart. Floating above the pool is a small, glowing sphere of water that seems to pulsate with magical energy.

---

Results of the Choice:

• You find the Orb of Purity, an ancient Water relic that enhances your healing abilities.
• Aqua Surge (Level 5): You now have an even greater healing power and can push back multiple foes at once.

[Turin Turambar]

I would like to examine this orb before we go putting it in our pocket.

[Ithillian Turambar]

We could put it in Gud's pocket?

[Ithillian Turambar]

Yay! @Alyssa Octerin joins the adventure.  Welcome 🙂

[Turin Turambar]

Welcome Alyssa!

 

Not putting it  in Gudrean 's pocket, Zander would steal it. 

Lolololol 

[Alyssa Octerin]

Glad to be here 😃 I am all caught up on the story and agree examining the orb seems like the best course of action

[Ithillian Turambar]

Ok then, let's study the Orb

 

*****

 

You decide to study the Orb of Purity, taking the time to understand its powers. As you hold the orb, it begins to glow brighter, and a soothing wave of energy envelops you. The orb seems to amplify your ability to heal and restore, not only improving the potency of Aqua Surge but also granting insight into the nature of elemental energy.

• You discover that the Orb of Purity enhances all water-based healing spells.

4. Take a short rest to fully absorb what you’ve learned.

What will you do next?

[Turin Turambar]

I'm unsure.  Either test it out or have a rest. I could see both being beneficial. Although  I could see resting being a set up to getting attacked.

[Ithillian Turambar]

Needs some more group think maybe?

 

@Gudrean

@Cairos

@LilyElizabeth

@Alyssa Octerin

 

And @ anyone else who wants to join in and play

 

Health points still look OK. Maybe the short rest is like attunement but it would be fun to try it out somewhere

 

 

[Turin Turambar]

What could possibly go wrong??? Lololololol 

[Cairos]

Let’s take a short rest! 

[Turin Turambar]

OK.  Let's rest

[Ithillian Turambar]

Ok 3 votes for rest and I see @HeavyHalfMoonBlade has joined our party

 

*****

You find a quiet spot near the cave’s entrance and sit down, the Orb of Purity resting in your hands. As you close your eyes, you can feel the soothing energy of the orb flow through you. The memories of the healer’s guidance and the discoveries in the cave replay in your mind, helping you solidify your knowledge. When you stand again, you feel more centered, ready to face whatever comes next.

Vast exaggeration. 

 

I'm only here as a representative of the Blowing-things-up-when-it-really-isn't-advisable Party. We've had complaints of things not blowing up inappropriately so we felt had to start an official investigation into this lack. 

 

Sworn statements may need to be collected at a later date to document this disturbing swath of non-violence. 

 

I vote we test this baby out. 

[Gudrean]

I'm back from worky thing and all caught up. Let's give er a spin!

[Ithillian Turambar]

Ok we're gonna test the Orb

 

*****

You walk to the nearby river, the Orb of Purity glowing faintly in your hands. The water’s gentle murmur grows quieter as you approach, almost as if the river itself anticipates your command. Stepping into the cool flow, you feel a deeper connection to the element of Water. Lifting the orb, you direct its power into the stream, watching as the river glimmers, its current carrying a faint, soothing light downstream. The orb’s energy transforms the water into a healing cascade, and you can sense that the strength of Aqua Surge has further increased.

What will you do next?

[Gudrean]

I say 1 or 4. What do the rest of y'all think?

[HeavyHalfMoonBlade]

Relics schmelics. I reckon the source of the river sounds like a great place to meet a water nymph. I think we need to get our game on and go meet some sexy water boys/girls. 

 

Or am I in the wrong role play for that kind of thing? 

[Ithillian Turambar]

Wrong place. The whole of DM is PG13 lol

 

And we have to find the Heart!

Which is obviously what I meant, the heart of sexy... I mean, noble and courageous water beings that will be in awe of our mastery of water magic. We can't just sit here and self buff all game. We need to find a partner...

 

Why did the bit that was meant to non-smutty sound worse than the innuendo-laden part? I need more practice at this speaking in mixed company business.

[Turin Turambar]

Search for morer loots!!

[Turin Turambar]

Less smoots!!!

[Gudrean]

what are smoots?

[Ithillian Turambar]

Who knows. Lol spelling mistake, auto correct. It may be a mystery forever

[Ithillian Turambar]

I might be a bit of a loot goblin. If there's a chance of treasure I say smash all the things and find it.
