[D&D] Round 7

[Daniel Mays]

Okay.  Sorry I didn't have as much time as I thought last night.  I'll still
haven't got that letter finished from the Lady at the keep, but I'll get it
done soon.  However I can respond to a bunch of the other things that people
have suggested.

As far as the necromancers guild goes.  I should play that part out in steps
James, so tell me where you want to start looking and I will let you know
what you find out at each location.  You can give me a list and I'll stop
you where something might become relevant and have you make a bluff,
diplomacy or gather information check, depending on whatever is more
appropriate.

I'm going to just say that Nooka spends some time playing with the rest of
that black goo, and between that and the information you got from the
alchemist:  You find out that the black oily substance can easily be refined
into a highly flammable and volatile liquid through a distillation process
that takes about a day (for a very small amount).  However the substance is
very difficult to ignite (requires very high temperatures / pressure).
Nooka is interested by this detail since the substance obviously was able to
self ignite on that one hot day that you all remember.  Nooka suggests using
some kind of salt peter to mix with the substance that might make it more
easily ignited.

Erick finds in a book containing historical battles that have been fought in
the region, a passage about the rise of the undead lord 300 years ago.  He
learns that the armies of the dead appeared in the north eastern part of the
kingdom and laid waste to several of the eastern villages and towns of
Rhuanmar while growing in numbers at each location.  Some of the villages
and towns that were laid to waste are mentioned by name:  Tandem, Torwick
and Tirsk.  The passage also notes that the leaders of the armies seemed to
be very difficult to kill and could only be hurt by mithril weapons.  The
armies were finally defeated by a force of holy warriors and priests led by
Glaiden Harrogate.

Jim, you find out that according to something one of the mages wrote, who
did some research on lycanthropes, lycanthropes are vulnerable to "true
silver" which after doing more research you find out is mithril.  The mage
also wrote that lycanthropes in the wild seem to be particularly active when
the 2nd moon - Rydia - a green-blue colored moon, is in the "full" part of
it's cycle.  This moon is also revered by druids and thought of by some
elven myths to be the place that life began.

- I will post more information about the moon cycles soon.

Bruce, I will come up with a list of recipes that you find.

Let me know if I missed anything.
