Those will be crafted for her, along with a lot of other gear, next month. Same goes for Sheepstealer.

The gear on the sheet is what she currently has.

Can we get these amulets crafted for all our dragonlords? It's very niche, but our needs for the dragonlords are similarly niche. Can we get these effects added to their PfE items or something?

Dragonbone Amulet


Description: This worn but still recognizable carving of a dragon marks the center of an ancient talisman surrounded by a patterns of scales. Unnaturally light to any hand that bears it, just as all dragonbone is, an heir of Valyria's blood might also feel the hint of flame within it.

Abilities:
  1. Fire Resistance 10
  2. Three times per day the bearer may re-roll a handle animal check relating to a creature with the dragon type
Caster Level: 5

Even leaving the riders aside this would be a useful tool for the people we've hired to manage the dragon habitat in Claw Island.

@TalonofAnathrax, Can you take one last look at Nettles' character sheet before I send it on to DP?

I've added Sheepstealer to her sheet using the Pathfinder version of a Mature Adult Red Dragon modified by the Feral template.

Nicely done, thanks. I originally made Sheepstealer as a 3.5 Red, but whatever.
Next level (which I think should either be Spellsword to work towards Abkurant Champion, or simply Stalwart Battle Sorcerer) she will have enough CL to Teleport a Huge creature like her Dragon. Convenient.
 
Finally caught back up and just in time to vote too

Interlude DCLXXXIII: Upon Northwestern Winds
  • Threadmarks
    • Upon Northwestern Winds ​

    Sixteenth Day of the Eleventh Month 293 AC

    Aboard the Fair Horizon, the Sunset Sea

    The jagged outline of Bear Island was just visible in the early morning light, mostly shrouded in the green of its pine forests, though here and there Menel's eyes, restored to the sharpness of youth, could make out patches where the forests had been cut back to make room for villages eking out a living from the hard earth or most often risking storms and reavers to harvest the bounty of the cold waters. It looked imposing, a wild beauty of the North, a gemstone in the rough. The Lorathi trader struggled to find more words of praise for what looked to his eyes to be the third most miserable patch of gods-forsaken ground he'd ever seen rising from the sea, and that only because he had visited Skagos for the second, and the first... well, that he would rather not think of lest it darken the light of day.

    Still, he knew he would need to lavish praise on the island from whose not-so-tender mercies the newly founded Great Northwestern Trading Company had hopefully come to rescue its inhabitants from. There was something about being born in the worst places in the world that made one derive a perverse pride in the fact. Perhaps that was how those unfortunates got through the day, by reminding themselves how 'hardy' it made them to live in a place where they could not take more than three baths a year lest they die of lung-rot from the chill wind.

    "Well, Master Whaler, have you seen enough of your quarry in these waters to be worth the journey?" Menel asked, turning to the richly dressed Ibbenese man behind him. Lam Thror did not much fit the imagine of the ordinary Ibbenese that most well traveled folk would have, the hard drinking blubber-chewing seaman who could break three arms in arm-wrestling and three legs to go with them in the ensuing bar fight. He was, or rather had been, a wealthy whaler captain of Port Ibben who had fallen afoul of the Shadow Council and thus lost much of that wealth and no small number of his kith and kin, but the Ibbenese were a clannish sort so he had still had more than most to offer in terms of expert whalers and shipwrights when Menel had traveled there by sorcery.

    "Too many," the whaler grunted. "Almost enough to make a man wonder why all the Ironborn have to trouble foreign shores instead of making their fortune hunting them, 'lest until you remember that the damn Ironborn are too lazy to keep to honest work."

    "I don't think there's such a thing as too many whales, unless that is you believe there's such a thing as too heavy a coin purse," Menel replied with a laugh.

    ***​

    Mormont Keep, Bear Island, The North

    Thankfully, the woman whose coin pouch would be doing the most growing out of the deal was not a fool. Oh, Maege Mormont didn't have much of a head for numbers and less for trade, but she would at least follow what Menel was proposing and did not waste her breath growling at him because the former lord of the keep had dealt with Tyroshi traders. How anyone could confuse him for one of those strutting fools Menel could not imagine...

    "Listen here, boy, don't you be telling me how to hunt fer your precious furs when I've got a family to feed," Vigrik, the self-avowed best hunter in the island burst out his mane of light blond hair, bristling alongside his snow bear cloak. His otherwise very well made cloak. He's just looking for a fight...

    "I was huntin' when you were sucking on your mama's teat, 'course that ain't saying much seeing as that was last winter," the man continued mockingly.

    And now he has it, the Braavosi 'venturer thought coldly. He had not wanted to risk some sorcerer seeing through a glamour and raising all manner of suspicion so he had merely used his mundane craft to make his body appear a few years younger than its physical age. Alas, he appeared to have misjudged how old was 'old enough'.

    The best way to regain face would be to make Vigrik eat his words and maybe knock his teeth in to go with them. Menel carefully glanced at the lady of the keep in askance, receiving a small tip of the head in reply. "Poor words to speak to a guest under your liege-lady's rooftree," the trader said, tone deliberately light and pleasant as it had been before, knowing that could be more disconcerting under such circumstances than raising his voice. "Perhaps you would like to repeat them somewhere less constrained?"

    ***​

    Half an hour later a bloodied Menel was holding Valyrian steel under Vigrik's chin, as the man still clutched the useless haft of his axe, the head having been chopped off and kicked into the crowd. "I do not believe I ever called your skill as a hunter into question, I merely pointed out that you should concentrate on hunting beasts with an eye for not damaging the fur for which good silver can be had. I trust no one doubts my word."

    "No," Vigrik growled. He would never be one to share a tankard by the fireside with, but he wouldn't make more trouble, Menel judged as he offered to heal the man with magic from his belt, surprisingly he agreed.

    As Menel moved back into the keep he caught the eye of Lady Maege's elder daughter, Dacey giving him a far different look then when he had arrived, a familiar look. Well now, I'm not Lothos, but this body is surely young in every way... he thought, offering a smile of his own in return.

    OOC: I did not show the duel on screen because round by round combat takes a long time to write out and I figured world-building and character moments would be more interesting.

    1. The enchantment is the equivalent of a third level spell
    2. Hmm... is says in the class that she can treat the dragon as a familiar so she can target it with 'self' spells, but I don;t think a mage can freely teleport their familiar without a slot so Nettles can't do it to Sheepsteeler until she has the capacity

    We've always had Varys teleport with Viserys without having it spend a spell slot. I get the reluctance to have a Valyrian Dragon teleport for free, but this ruling shouldn't extend to regular familiars given that we've spent the entire quest doing it the other way.

    From what I remember Varys was never that relevant to Viserys transport capacity given her smalls size. The same would go for most familiars.

    I'll probably start working on it some tomorrow.

    Some of these have already been added to our peoples' gear this month, on your reccomendation. Off the top of my head, I know the Boots of Charging effect has been added to Richard's boots and the Vambrace's of Evil Warding effect to his amulet, and the Sword of Subtlety effect has been added to one of Garin's daggers.

    I've actually got one of your item collection posts bookmarked for reference. Could you add these to that post for the sake of simplicity?
     
    So right now Menel is a Noble 4/Master Spy 4, @DragonParadox. How close is he and the other Windward bros to leveling? It's been quite some time since they were Reincarnated and we've sent them on several missions since then.

    Well it will probably take some promises either to improve the city, to outright bribe the ruling elite or both, but generally speaking the remaining two princes in Lorath are pro-Viserys and just looking at what they can get out of the deal.

    Oh. Then can we arrange to visit in person and hash out an agreement with them?

    Also beforehand can we get an official report detailing the current elite of the city and outlining any people we would probably want to get rid of?

    Would a turn plan proposal including their provincial holdings having tens of thousands of IM dumped into the local economy (and not "the local economy" as in some Magister's purse but actually encouraging trade and industry by hiring locals) just on the first turn (and turns thereafter) be encouragement enough? They already benefit tangentially from ACSEC operating within city limits. Believe me, they have definitely benefited from its services by now.

    Handy Haversack: This backpack is of high quality but appears otherwise normal.
    1. It has two side pouches, each of which appears large enough to hold about a quart of material. In fact, each is like a Bag of Holding and can actually hold material of as much as 2 cubic feet in volume or 20 pounds in weight. The large central portion of the pack can contain up to 8 cubic feet or 80 pounds of material. Even when so filled, the backpack always weighs only 5 pounds.
    2. While such storage is useful enough, the pack has an even greater power. When the wearer reaches into it for a specific item, that item is always on top. Thus, no digging around and fumbling is ever necessary to find what a haversack contains. Retrieving any specific item from a haversack is a Move Action, but it does not provoke the Attacks of Opportunity that retrieving a stored item usually does.
    Launcher:
    • Somewhat resembling a crossbow where the bow mechanism has been replaced by a two foot long and two inch diameter hollow steel tube, this device allows its wielder to shoot items no larger than Tiny-size or weighing more than 10 pounds using the Launch Item spell up to 440 feet. Where applicable, the wielder must make a Ranged Attack roll to strike a target.

    Would a turn plan proposal including their provincial holdings having tens of thousands of IM dumped into the local economy (and not "the local economy" as in some Magister's purse but actually encouraging trade and industry by hiring locals) just on the first turn (and turns thereafter) be encouragement enough? They already benefit tangentially from ACSEC operating within city limits. Believe me, they have definitely benefited from its services by now.

    Depending on rolls that might be enough, but adding a bribe would also help.

    Also beforehand can we get an official report detailing the current elite of the city and outlining any people we would probably want to get rid of?
