Guilding

[Anastasia]

It doesn't ring a bell.

[Iron Dragoon]

"Very interesting. None of that sounds familiar, and I'm well-read. I'd be interested in transcribing a chronicle for you."

[Anastasia]

'Nice of you,' The gem says, 'That dragon's dead I think, he hasn't been back in a long time. Bastard thought I was just a gemstone and silenced me with magic whenever he visited.'

[Iron Dragoon]

"He is. Aurora defeated him. Not exactly sure when, but they did. We found out about the treasure here and came to claim it. Do you have issue with that? Would you like to come with us?"

[Anastasia]

'Aurora? I knew an Aurora once. Cute little thing,' the gem replies. 'Why should I give you the treasure? I've expanded it with gains from interlopers here.'

"Call it a trade," Jarem steps right in, "You probably have a soul if you're sentient. Which means magic to put you into an actual body's possible. I think Queen and Princess there could work something out."

Emily nods away, "We could," she says, "Or my Mom could too. Then you'll hear about her for sure!"

"Queen and Princess? They don't look related," The gem remarks.

[Iron Dragoon]

"He thinks he's clever with nicknames, but we each have our allegiances, though that doesn't keep us from working together. Bit he does have e the thrust of it correctly. Stay here in solitude or enjoy a new chance at life and legacy. As long as you don't act against us, or work towards anything evil, we'll be willing to offer some assistance, as well."

[Anastasia]

Gimme a quick Diplo. Assume +2 for Jarem aiding.

<Rei-chan> Iddy rolled : 1d20+36+21 Diplo/Cunning Knowledge --> [ 1d20=16 ]{73}

"Do I have a soul? That's a good question!" The gem says, "I'm not really Sadur, more of an imprint. But why not find out?"

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa nods. "Consider what form you're interested in. We can work from there. For now, however, let's sort this treasure out. I'll have to suppress the rod to get us out of here again, but as long as we're ready with spells, it'll be easy enough."

[Anastasia]

Okay, plans here and how you plan to loot all of this?

[Iron Dragoon]

Well, take the choice stuff via Haversack, then for the bulk I'll suppress the Rod via Anti-Magic Ray again, then have someone open a gate, go through before the anti-magic wears off and hand the rod off to a minion, and then start shoveling the rest through via TK and people. TK can do like 375lbs at a time. Feasible?

[Anastasia]

Sounds solid. Make an Appraise check.

[Iron Dragoon]

Appraise/Cunning Knowledge:

[Anastasia]

Fantastic. Toss in Perception. You have tremorsense too, right?
