There's the rest of the items I was complaining earlier that was lazing about! Please, no more! Urgh!
(Grumbles about the list growing again as we deal with Tiamat's forces later) Hopefully the next few months will see a lot of those scratched off that list.
Anyway, since your search-fu is on magpie, did we have a timeframe as to when the Githzerai vists SD? Do we need to have any actions for them next turn?
Just put Zathir on the rose. The Coatls former self is technically the one that made heaven in the first place. Even if not with his domains it should remain pretty much the same mystically if not even better.

There's no reason everything has to be done all at once. It isn't the end of the world if a project is put on ice for months.
As for the Gith, next month they're due to show up and start preparing our PCs to fight the Deep Ones.

About this, how about we get the Gossogos forge to make him some sort of fire loving guardian for his hoard? If we had samples mulched into the forge, I propose a gold scaled naga. I think Amrelath would find the irony, and Yss will be puzzled, ...again.

...Maybe I should just stick to the fey...holy shit that's a lot.
Edit: Well time to use those Fleshcrafters for our new flesh crafters. We needed an Imp?

Part MMMXCVI: Where Angels Fly and Devils Fear Not Tread
Where Angels Fly and Devils Fear Not Tread
Thirty-First Day of the Tenth Month 293 AC
Amrelath is wary to hear talk of trade, perhaps not knowing how fair a deal to expect from you. The windfall in the Far North had left him more comfortable with his hoard, but not yet so much that he would actively seek ways to enrich it by first estranging some of the wealth. Still, he comes when called just the same as he is sworn to stand before you on the battlements, startling one of the newer guards with his passage. "What price?" he hisses shortly.
You name the prize and then the price, and the gleam in the Dragon's eyes shifts to greedy anticipation. "A bargain, cousin," he replies, taking flight once more to recover his part of the deal. Though you could have had them there in an instant with magic you keep your peace. It is discourteous to express interest in seeing another Dragon's horde without being invited, and few indeed are trusted enough to be so. If Lya's teasing about your realm being your hoard is true then you are uncommonly free with invitations...
The sandals Amrelath hands you are wrought of living vines and supple bark, the work of Greenseers of old that had somehow endured the darkness of the tomb and the passage of years exchanged for new-forged coin, all of it in silver as he had asked.

Gained Sandals of the Dryad
***
Standing in front of Danar's and Alyssa's home in Sorcerer's Deep it is clear who had the most hand in its making. While discrete enough to meld into the style of the city in broad lines, the flowers and other bright patterns made in plaster and colored stone recall the style of the Vale of Arryn, alongside the scent of roses too delicate by far to survive the harsh winters and stony soil of Skagos. The polished walnut door creaks open to reveal the singer who offers a quick nod of the head. "Your Grace, what brings you about?"
"Dragons bearing gifts," you reply lightly, holding up the enchanted sandals. "Amrelath was more fortunate in finding relics. Also the opportunity to be rid of that which you did find."
"The Other-Bronze?" The Northerner's expression darkens. "I'll be happy to see it broken before the roots of a Heart Tree, or swallowed by the Snake come to that."
"Yss does not consume works of magic, but the torques may well end as a sacrifice to the Old Gods. Before all else I would like to have them seen by the Djinn. Mayhap they can remove the curse and keep the boon."
"I'd not wager on it, but then I'm no mage-smith," Danar shrugs. "Mayhap my wife will try to become one. I hear that's worked out well for you, hasn't it?"
"I could not even imagine better," you answer honestly before saying your farewells and moving on to the east, to Mantarys to deliver the strange skull Ser Hasty had cleaved from the head of the singing wight in the Riverlands.

The hallways of the palace are busier than you had yet seen them as the city continues to grow and prosper from burgeoning trade so too must its administrators grow in number, though with Yrael at its head you are content it will not become bloated with the corruption that so often follows success. For that matter it is not just mortals who have gown in number, you had summoned scores more Lantern Archons to light the way by their unwavering radiance and after much searching even happened upon a Preceptor Archon willing to remain in the realm of mortals to practice and teach mind healing. As you pass by the room of records you are surprised to catch a glimpse of blood red wings. Eslpeth, one of handful of Furies who had sworn themselves to you over the last month. Odd to be seeking the company of Archons so swiftly, perhaps she finds it more comforting than that of mortals to which she must hide her true nature still.
Whatever the case you suspect most of the people of your realm would far sooner see a Phoenix than an Archon for you had called forth scores of Velen's kin and they had scattered far and wide, some to serve the Lady of Skane, like to like drawn, others to help care for orphans and teach like their kin already present, and others to fly throughout the realm healing wounds and giving aid to those far removed from the wonders of Sorcerer's Deep.
- 5 Erinyes
- 1 Preceptor Archon
- 6 Hound Archons
- 42 Lantern Archons
- 181 Phoenixes
- 3 Desert Devils (24 HD), 4 Sand Devils (16 HD), 6 Zebubs (24 HD), 7 Bearded Devils (42 HD), 3 Imps (9 HD), (all serving Mammon)
- 9 Quasit (27 HD), 6 Schir (30 HD), 3 Vermlek (12 HD)
- 3 Orthons (6 HD)
- 1 Horned Devil (15 HD), 2 Uniilas (20 HD), 5 Ice Devils (70 HD), 28 Erinyes (252 HD) (all serving Asmodeus).
As though the thought had summoned him you see a Phoenix perched on Naeron's desk, carefully reading through a ledger laid out beside him. He takes note of the skull you present with a nod and then returns to his new duties.
What next?

OOC: And with that we are now done. Not the best rolls for the Preceptor Archons, most of the survivors are too involved with their current patents to relocate, but you eventually found one who was in a good enough situation that he felt he could afford to leave them in the hands of other healers and move to the Prime Material. The reason for the out of character vote at the end is because I can't do the turn vote on the last update of the day, there is too much discussion necessarily, so if you guys pick interlude it will likely be a two interlude day.

I'd forgotten that she was retraining. @DragonParadox, she was a non-magical Ranger variant wasn't she? Will she simply become a normal Ranger, a Mystic Ranger, or a Duskblade? Or is she going full caster?

She will become a normal ranger, it's the natural progression of her class.

Lol! His reaction to the flyers, I guess? I think we'll have time for this as the turn vote finalizes tomorrow.

I was under the assumption that Legioners were as far as "elite" can go for a mundane soldier?
I'm pretty sure they were built that way, at least.
Should we really have numerical advantage to win encounters and/or war with Westeros, @Crake?
Mind you, I'm in no way opposed utilising overwhelming... fire...power.
Just not getting that earlier comment of yours that we'll "lose" if we go as is

A Faceless Man taking a look at the Fungus Forge to make sure it's on the up and up?(They probably did already given we dump corpses and get out creatures from it. But now that Bravos officially joined it probably falls under the old protection pact. So just random one taking a look around on patrol).
The dothraki who would have been Khal Drogo? Random Illithid when it first gets news about Gith training our troops on Deep One tactics? The Maesters when they get word about just how expensive our schooling system is and how many colleges we are building?

They are optimized for NPC melee types yes. But like in all things there are Newbs and there are Veterans. Snd sadly the vast majority will by fresh faced Newbs months out of training. Think of it as a...blooding preparing them for the wars that actually matter.
