The blind elf smiles, this time for a fraction of a second longer than usual.

“Your friend brings up an excellent point,” he replies in Common. “Let us just say that it is best suited to my purposes for me not to leave this cell here. However, rest bumured that you will be in no danger whatsoever. It is a simple task, retrieving a cedar-wood chest that has fallen by the wayside. The biggest threat to your safety, indeed, is that of sanitation.”

He motions with his left hand in a complex motion and mumbles something under his breath. Cenbuma: It is no spell that you know, but it is clearly magical; you can feel your heart skip a beat even as reality scrambles to obey his will, an almost visible pulse of power converging upon this one point in the multiverse for a split second. Then, it is gone as quickly. Nodding to Zakarion, almost as if in recognition, the elf steps back into the shadows in the corner of his cell…

And, in almost the same instance, you see three backpacks slowly float towards you through the bars of the prison cell. Behind each figure is a smoky, insubstantial almost-humanoid figure holding your backpacks and other bumorted gear up. Cenbuma: You recognise it as an invisible servant, a simple summoning spell that the Academy Masters sometimes use to perform various menial tasks.

 

Well, well, well… if you so choose to accept them, gentlemen, you will find your equipment intact and accounted for. It’s time to do some dungeon raping crawling, folks.

Zak is surprised to see his equipment appear so suddenly, but smiles at the sight of his trusty halberd within his reach again. He then turns to his full plate armour, which he is slightly less fond of but still is grateful for. “I’m going to need somebody to help me put my armour on.”

(OOC: Last I remembered, full plate requires someone else to help you put it on, even if you’re proficient with it)

Guys, this is a chance for you to check through your equipment and declare how you’re going to stack your inventory; if not I’m going to bumume that your potions are all in the bottom of your rucksack and it’ll take a full-round action to retrieve and quaff it. You may have three to five items- depending on size- in your “Quick Inventory” (i.e. located in a convenient location) slots, except for Voaer who bought the Handy Haversack.

OOC: So we just choose the stuff in the ‘quick inventory’ slots, essentially? If it’s that simple, my top three would be one each of the Cure Moderate Wounds and Bull’s Strength potions, and the battleaxe.

OOC: More or less, although each potion would take up one slot, and the battleaxe I bumume is going to be strapped to your back anyway, so that doesn’t require a slot.

Let me put it this way: if you can describe a logical way of storing your potions/scrolls/other consumables I’ll let you get away with five quick inventory slots; if not, just pick any three items and I’ll bumume it’s just located near the top of your haversack.

Okay… let’s just say his potions are strapped to a belt for quick access, and his bullseye lantern hangs from his pack and can attach to his armour to leave his hands free. It’d be awesome to have it stuck on his shoulder like Cyborg from Teen Titans.

OOC: You’ll require some sort of bandoleer or rig for your potions to hang from your person: you can buy this from any marketplace the next time you’re there, but for now they’ll have to sit in your pack. Even if you did have one, though, let me just say this: remember the parable of your dwarven friend Vlel Stonecutter. Log in to see images!

As for the lantern, it’ll be weird as hell to have it hanging from one’s shoulder. Log in to see images!

[i]You’re a sharp one. I was just thinking of a little rig that the lantern could be attached and detached to.

Eh, just throw everything in the backpack then. With the potions on top.[/i]

I’ll throw a cure potion, alchemist’s fire in the quick slots and can I roll up my scrolls and shove them in the artisan’s smock as well? Or should I just pick out a few to have in those pockets/quick slots?

Your choice. Just remember that each item counts as one slot; stuffing it down your smock for the scrolls would work, so that would give you +1 slot for scrolls and 3 more usual from the backpack.

In other news, excellent roleplaying so far everyone. 500xp to all.

Jason helps get the fighter into his armor, so the poor guy doesn’t stand there with his pants down.

The plate feels cool to the touch and glints with a shine that makes you slightly uneasy. No armour, especially one that hasn’t been recently polished, should gleam like that. But each elaborate whorl, every single flute and groove etched into the armour, is breathtakingly beautiful, each painstaking worked into wrought iron. You recognise the fine touch of a master artist in the persistent rose motif, but it annoys that you’re unable to place the origins of the style. While the ironwork and plate style points at traditional dwarven smithy style, the rose is more commonly bumociated with either the high elven houses or the gnome clans, but never with the dwarves.

The last plate finally locks into place, and Almac shrugs to redistribute the weight more evenly. The soft clink reminds you of a gentle rainfall upon an aut-... wait, what the ****? You shake your head to clear it. Hell, where did that come from?
