It was nice knowing you, 2023. I only hope the year that comes after you is just as nice to know.
"It's no slice of abura-age, but it certainly smells delicious and I'm sure it will taste even better." Skobeloff said to Fogdance with a grateful smile before turning his attention to the porridge. "Itadakimasu!" With that said, Skobeloff's tail whipped upwards and in Fogdance's direction, catapulting the pixie dust he'd picked up earlier into the dragon's eyes. With Fogdance's mind temporarily clouded by the dust, Skobeloff sprang into action. The young drake dashed about the room, hiding away the bowl of porridge, finding a different bowl that looked like the porridge bowl and putting it on the table, quickly yet thoroughly covering his tracks, and scrambling to get back in his seat just in time for Fogdance to return to her senses to see nothing out of the ordinary as Skobeloff eagerly licked his bowl of porridge clean. "That was great!" Skobeloff exclaimed with a satisfied grin as he lifted his head out of the bowl. "Maybe House Tessith has the right idea after all... or at the very least it has the right idea when it comes to food."
Skobeloff attempts to trick Fogdance into thinking he ate the porridge. He rolls a 12 and chooses to learn a valuable secret and confuse Fogdance for some time
"Well if you're offering, I certainly wouldn't say no to some food and water." Skobeloff said in response to Fogdance offering him something to eat and drink. "As for the company I keep and how I got here, I came to this island with the rest of my clutch and a bearded dragon called Garrock to investigate why the mainland lost contact with you and yours, as well as why the island itself seems intent on feeding itself to the Cloudstalker. When we arrived at the beach, our seer had visions of trouble being afoot all across the island. With that in mind, we came to the decision that I would come investigate the stronghold while the others dealt with the goings on elsewhere. And so I trekked through the wilderness, outsmarted a mischievous pixie, briefly turned myself into a gust of wind, and stumbled across you and whatever invisible entity you are conversing with at the same time as me."
As Skobeloff spoke, he began to study Fogdance again. This time, he was on the lookout for any indication of the older dragon's motivations or intentions, especially if the aforementioned motivations or intentions pertained to him in some way.
Skobeloff studies Fogdance. He rolls a 9 and learns what Fogdance wants from him.
Since Jørmund and Cascade are in the clear, I think I'll end the encounter here. Once I've made my next IC post you'll all be out of initiative and free to post at will.
Cascade thinking the bird is a deity of some kind or the bird actually BEING a deity of some kind? XD
The latter. I have no control over the actions of the PCs, so whether or not Cascade ends up thinking that Hawk is a deity is up to Haruki. But if she decides that Cascade does think that Hawk is a deity, Cascade will be right.
With the alcohol in his system enhancing his bravery and dulling his caution, Jørmund boldly threw aside all concerns for defense and struck the attacker in front of him with all the force he could muster. As the blow landed, pulping the attacker's skull and laying him low, Jørmund would be able to make out the faint sound of deep, booming laughter, though he couldn't place where it was coming from. As Jørmund made for the shield wall, the attacker in front of Cascade took advantage of Jørmund's lack of attention to defense and swung for the earth genasi's back. However, Jørmund ran out of range just quick enough that the attacker's maul missed him by a fraction of an inch.
Jørmund kills the attacker blocking his way.
The Attacker In Front Of Cascade makes an opportunity attack against Jørmund, but misses with a 17.
