We got psionics?

MY LIFE FOR AIUR!

Now we need to use the Forge to make our own Protoss, but with less "I am better than you" bullshit that got them almost extinct by space bugs.

Y'all might remember that I've moved away from using our low level people as craft bots since we gained the services of the Shaitan enchanters. It's worked out well, allowing us to begin assigning them to real tasks.

Jeyne is a special case, though. She is our only potential source for psionic item crafting, limited as she currently is by her level and powers known. Do we want her to learn one or more psionic item crafting feats, or ignore them and focus on more useful abilities? I would prefer not to make her a craft bot, but figured I should present the option at least.

Unless it allows her to teach psionic crafting sooner, I'd prefer to have her primary combat with a second in teaching and then add in the best crafting feat available when she hits her next feat level, to teach that to some NPCs.

Or if she gets five or six NPCs intoduced into the class, one of them could develop crafting themselves?

@thread, probably dumb question, but did we check out Roger's brain/mind/soul/magic aura thing to the same level we did to Jeyne? Would not put it past the Mindflayers to have a very low level, hypersutble effect of a different basis on Roger tbh, like, it might increase their odds of being found out, marginally, but eh. Mindflayers are alien

Also, is there any reason we can't offer her her memories back now? She's at no risk of being caught by Tywin if she knows about Arraune anymore imo, any divinations would have gotten everything salient about the situation by asking stuff about Arraune himself.

No, wait, she has them. Then what answers was she looking for here? Just if her head was messed with or...?

It's pointless and redundant. The Mind Flayers gave her those memories back. It was her entire cover story for coming back.

There are a lot of good generic NPCs of all levels you can use here, if you weren't already aware.

I know and I have used them in the past

Alright. Can you give us basic guidelines? Levels? Vague class ideas?

  1. Bonifer Hasty - I have him already Cavalier 8
  2. Benjicot Brown - You guys made him already so also fine
  3. Balon Swann - Fighter 8 Archery focus
  4. Darkstar - Fighter 9 Lance focus
Everyone gets the elite array

Yup, edited post. Unless they edited the memories she had of the event from what they originally were, now I think on it further. Possible, but eh, anything possible. *shrugs*

Nice gesture, to offer them, show that we kept them safe for her when the security concerns that prompted their removal were going to change.

She was looking for work in a place she would not be suspected and driven out by the ignorant and learned alike

We still need to use touch of history on anything hers to know what did the Mind Flayers do with her besides kidnapping.

Also, do we know anything about where was she held captive?

First of all, obligatory RIP. That is nowhere near enough to take down Amrelath, especially considering the lack of equipment.

Second, @DragonParadox, since Balon Swann won the archery contest is he getting his equipment later or does he already have it?

Third, Darkstar was really good with a Longsword in canon though he was also good with a Lance, point being that it makes more sense for Longsword to be the focus here.

It would actually be funny if these were part of the Illithid infiltration team.

"See, I just rode a four-legged beast without sufficiently nutritious brain matter to poke my analogue coming from the other side, as humans do"

"I'm examining the useless trinket being offered by the trinket-seller while I ponder if it would match the color of my eyeballs, which is totally inconsequential to world domination, as humans do"

Also, just to point it out, my bad jokes are getting somewhat prophetic.

With @egoo 's Riotmancy and @Goldfish 's Napmancy we will rule the quest!
 
Two people to build sheets for then.

Balon Swann - Fighter 8 Archery focus
Gear: +1 Dragonbone Longbow of Distance (w/Strength bonus customized to the winner), Valyrian Steel Dagger (SD Festival Edition), Quiver of Abundant Ammunition, Gloves of Zephyr's Grace (+2 Dexterity), Healing Belt (+2 Constitution), Ring of Protection from Evil.

Darkstar (Gerold Dayne) - Fighter 9 Lance focus or Longsword focus
Gear: Presumably Masterwork Equipment
