Post from Fremea on actions... From: Tobie Bonahoom To: Subject: Re: [pnpgm] Hullo out there...? Fremea has been quiet for a long time as everyone talks about what to do. Her thoughts run all over the issues. Could she be hidden so that no one can tell she is a Fea? Maybe she can be stealthy then and not worry about some of the harder to get out of spots? Can she act like a betrothed? What does a bretrothed act like? "I believe that it is best I am a child of the nobleman. That will allow me to escape many eyes, and be invisible, even when I am not. This gives many advantages. If you believe I should act as a betrothed, I shall do so. I have many worries about going there myself with this detection of magics, being that I am magic itself. I will however disguise myself with the aid of our giant bard and it seems a couple of others, so that no one will know of my wings. I will sacrifice my comfort to rid this world of the Vong. "As for the travel, it seems others know much better as to which way to go, so I leave it to them. I will learn what I must to survive." Once the talk of travel has started up: "I wish to practice more of my disguise and acting, so that I may fool even the best actors and unwanted detectives. I can also continue to teach you Raban, on the arts of the arrow spell." She smiles at the thought of Raban looking ugly, though he is fairly good looking for a human. Mungo, interesting name. One she would definitely remember hearing about before. Something about it tells her that it would be one stinky night around a camp fire too.

[Hey that’s me! J ] Ha’Kell chimes in, “I’m planning on leaving all magic items wherever we have our cache. Assuming Chion may teleport back to get the cache before any large, known battles.

How gracious of you ask.” “Any wandering ‘secret society’ members we encounter I am hoping to talk our way through. I’ll try at least. I make my living convincing people of things. I have several ideas on this already and can practice them, possibly even using the fake detectors on our wagon and gear.” Whispering harshly and looking down his nose, eyes flashing in anger and arrogance, “You insolent fool! Do you know who we are and why we are here? If our masters find out you tried to stop us, you and your families will disappear tomorrow. Let us pass now and I’ll conviently forget to mention this when we arrive. Leave now before I have Mongo take what we want from you,” dismissing the imagined people with an arrogant wave, feigning turning his back. Or Looking around warily, sneakily approaching, “Of course we have magic, just as you do. You arrogant peasant, you’ll give us both away. It is in your best interest to not let me detect your magic or I’ll send you off faster than you can scream. Leave us now and there won’t be any problems.” “I still do not know who the noble will be, if we will have two, or if we use the influential foreign merchant version. Any of these can work.” “I would like to discuss tactics before assaulting any large groups of Vong. My magic is specialized, whilst useful and a bit slow.

Fremea will not bring any of her magic in the wagon, however it will come on the boat and be hidden. If she can figure out a way to keep her armor close that would be good. Other wise, she will make sure that there is a spot (within her teleport range) to leave her stuff, so it will not be disturbed (probably up high). She will hide her sword and dagger with her, as they are not magical, just special metal.
