In human form, and accounting for the 28 points of Vile damage absorbed by his Heart of Earth spell, Viserys is still down 23 HP, to a total of 73 +28 temp.

It would be really nice if we could get that taken care of soon.
 
Hrm, might be best to go with Lord of Flame and Sky, Viserys Targaryen, Interplanar merchant, and then once inside ask if our meeting location is warded and reintroduce ourselves as Viserys Targaryen, King in the Stepstones, of the Plane of Balance.

Oh, I do not wanna just hand out PoB info. We sell that. Info's gonna get out, but I wanna make sure we get our money's worth.

@TNE Nothing for "from somewhere you might be interested in, but we can get to that later ;)"?

Or, someone who's actions may have caused so mild inconvenience for the house, but to fair, if we had not been present, shit would have been proper effed, and would like to discuss how to minimise consequences"?

I'm not going to make an issue of it, but I still think calling ourselves a Lord of Fire and Sky is pretentious and misleading. Remember, also, that the Shaitan have complex relationships with the Djinn and the Efreet, each of which is more rightfully addressed as a Lord of Fire or Lord of the Sky than we are.

I thought Malarys took care of that immediately after the fight?
No, I asked DP and neither Dany nor Malarys have Consecrate.
Malarys just broke the spell before it could deal even more damage.

It's common enough for Red Dragons.
 
We could go by any local church if we want it healed now, but Lya could also do it as soon as we are home.
Depends on how long we stay here and if there are still encounters to be fought before we return.
 
Sometimes it feels like whiplash in the thread. Just a few pages back people were salty about PoB being (re)discovered and now we're planning on declaring ourselves with a title that we don't know how these people will react to. Its a little jarring.
 
Info:
"Vile Damage, like regular damage, results in the loss of hit points or ability score points. Unlike regular damage, vile damage can only be healed by magic cast within the area of a consecrate or hallow spell. Vile damage represents such a evil violation to a character's body or soul that only in a holy place can healing magic repair the damage"

I agree that we shouldn't obscure our origins here. They will deal with us differently if they know we're a ruler in our own right, even if they aren't particularly impressed by the particulars. The boon they offer us may be of a different nature, for one thing - a king has different needs than a merchant (not that they can't overlap). We're used to dealing with scum, but that isn't the case here and if we ask for secrecy we should get it. They'll also appreciate the trust we extend, potentially cementing an even stronger relationship between us.

This feels like the right time to reveal ourselves - behind wards, to allies, and wringing some benefit out of it. And I expect the cat will be out of the bag soon enough regardless. Better to get ahead of it.

Like DP alluded, however, us walking around with Vile damage might affect the perceptions of others. I think we should ask to visit a chapel or other consecrated holy place and get it healed by a party member ASAP, before we meet with anyone but the majordomo.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that no one actually knows we are from the PoB yet.

Wouldn't it be better to use it as a bargaining chip instead of just blurting it out to look impressive?

Let's have at least a little restraint, people.

Let's go and get healed. Even a single poke can kill us right now, I can't help but be nervous even in a highly-lawful city.
