Sure! Let me know which you'd rather have me play and I'll step in.

Also, where is YC in the combat? Is he in danger of being burned or blown up?

Hope everyone had an awesome Christmas!

[Longman]

No, the monk is some distance away. I won't say too much because the others might have to go and rescue you yet.

If you could take Teruk, that would be great. You are at the crest of a sand dune watching two figures ride away on a camel. Maju's familiar reports they are the pirate mage and his off-sider, the lizard man Ash.

You are loyal to Maju and will act in his favor but are not suicidal. Also, you'd really like to kill Saracen because his race are your hated enemies, and because he killed two of your men in cold blood when you first met. But you know Maju wants him alive for some reason, so you haven't acted on that so far.

Have fun.

[Rhialto]

Hope you all had great a Christmas holiday!

And it appears that the problem with the "-ya" names has now been solved.
Sorry...

[Woe]

Yeah, the ja/ya confusion has resolved itself explosively.

[Longman]

Woe, do you want to play Elias for a while? I think he is on the dinosaur with Maju and the paladin. pinewood doesn't appear to be around at all.

One option is a new character for you when you get off the island, or maybe you can take one of the remaining NPCs when you get back to the ship. There actually aren't any spare crew or passenger slots for PCs any more. But the NPCs are not well fleshed out, so you could do all kinds of things with them. Look at the cast of characters in the background thread. The bard might be particularly fun.

Also, bear in mind that pinewood's cleric Elias has a Raise Dead scroll, which Jab-Afri confiscated. That might be an option for your blowed up character...

As I said, some dismemberment did occur when Sonja got blown up. You might need to address that before the spell was cast otherwise your new character will be missing some bits.

Long John Sonya! Now we just need a parrot for her shoulder!

Seriously, if Woe wants it, we'll try to do whatever we can to bring Sonja back. Maybe one of the evil tribes' witch doctors can do it if the scroll doesn't do the job?

[Longman]

[Woe]

I always had a bad feeling that Saracen and Jaali would be the death of Sonja.

I can play Elias for a bit, but I'm not a big fan of TMNT. I couldn't do it for long without turning into either Donetello (or one of the other ones). I'd also be up for taking a short break and seeing how things pan out with the raise dead option.

Great pic. I wonder why the knives would be on the left leg given they'd be thrown using the right hand... and does resurrection come with pointy ears?

DM: Raise Dead wouldn't. Resurrection might! I'd do the dismemberment randomly. Let's wait and see how things work out.

[quozl]

Do spells cast still stay in effect when their caster is dead, like... for example, Hold Person?

What if he scoops up everything into a bag first?
