[OOC] D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

[Lurking Krog]

Going to wait a bit and see if anyone else is going to post.

[Metal Head]

Im not sure how we are gonna communicate with these beings, but even then, Jitter is still not convinced to capture one and sell it...for some reason, it's bothering his concious.

[Metal Head]

Alarielle, cant kendra cast 1st level warlock spell "Comprehend Languages" and use that to understand the Chwingas?

[Alarielle]

She doesn't know that spell. Not sure it would work anyway, spell description says spoken languages or written languages, and these things don't seem to speak or write.

If they understand any language at all she could just use her patron's gift to have a nice one-way conversation with one, but I dunno if they have a language.

[Lurking Krog]

Well a nature, arcana, or history check may determine that.

[Metal Head]

@Alarielle
What do you think? Should Jitter just try and grab one?

[Metal Head]

Well a nature, arcana, or history check may determine that.

@Lurking Krog

I rolled a natural.......... 1 lol

[Alarielle]

Kendra rolls a 9 on arcana.

[Lurking Krog]

@HEAVY METAL @Alarielle neither of you are really sure on whether or not they know or understand any languages.

My brother and his friends never let me play that lol

@Lurking Krog

Aww, int-based skill checks. Kythor's no good at them. In any case, Kythor wants to try one to figure out if they have a language that they might be able to use to help explain the more "complex" concepts that may come up during their conversation - specifically things such as stealing and suggesting that they should ask permission before taking others' things.

Intelligence(Nature) Check:1d20+2=8

(and of course by the time I finally am able to get this post up, somebody's already rolled higher than me - unless otherwise stated, I'll just assume that Kythor's results are the same as Jitter's and Kendra's results)

As for whether or not we should grab one of the chwingas, Kythor himself is pretty against the idea of attacking these creatures at this point, especially given how we've sat down and effectively made peace with them for the time being. The way he sees it, diplomacy is the path of least resistance at the moment, so in his mind it might be best to try and figure out a way to persuade the chwingas into coming with them to Good Mead. Maybe we could offer them more baubles to play around with or something? Kythor could try offering them a Goodberry, maybe... Actually, now that I think about it, Dannika probably has a lot of strange and unusual baubles and trinkets the chwingas might be interested in playing with, since she's a researcher and all. That might be a good point to try to sell.

If we can't talk the chwingas into coming with, then he'll be more than ready to try and scoop one up, but for the time being he feels like if they can avoid engaging in direct conflict with the chwingas, they should.

EDIT: Also, no IC post from me tonight probably. Sorry. Kythor's just gonna keep observing the chwingas for now, sort of fascinated at being able to see one up close.

[Lurking Krog]

Sorry for the delay been a bit busy today. I'll get a post up as soon as I can.

[Lurking Krog]

Nevermind waiting on Jitter or Kindra.

To put it less subtly the Chwingas were inviting yall to go play.

@Lurking Krog

Maybe a little magic trick will help, other than this, i dunno what else to do.

[Lurking Krog]

@The Large Dumbo

Have you head from Chro recently? I know he had mentioned having just started school but I have not seen him on here recently.

[Chro2]

Yeah I'm still here I took a nasty fall a few days ago and wasn't feeling the best am still alive tho lol. Hard to keep track of what's happening with how spontaneous people posting can be so I am gonna get a post up now

[Chro2]

Alright so they can understand us but we can't understand them do I got that right

[Lurking Krog]

In a way. They can be understood, though sometimes it takes me being more creative with weird pictures, abs they can understand you.

Good to see you are alive and well @Chro2.
