Another person talks to Darla through the door slit. We are admitted. Darla departs. We explain our mission. Ranil agrees to help. We need to get to the rogue planetoid. The best way is by using a spelljammer ship. But we need to catch that at the Spelljammer Academy. She will help us get there. We must hurry to catch Captain Mert of the skyship, the galleon, Cloud Bearer's Fortune.

Ranil guides us to the captain's quarters where he is sleeping off a hangover. She wakes him and persuades him to take us all to the Spelljammer Academy.

Aboard, we learn he is the Mert, the money lender, the old wolf.

Long Rest.

We travel to Nimbrill, to the Spelljammer Academy. We land the ship (I missed it: either in a cave or on top of a tower). We are met by Saerthe, the head instructor. We explain our mission. He says we need to take a spelljammer to Iskirthos, the rogue planetoid.

Spelljammers work by flying really fast (1M miles per day) unless something large (missed detail) is within (missed distance) of the ship, in which case it just slows down automatically. Then the ship and the object are pulled towards each other by (missed that detail). If it's a planet, then the gravity does that.

We begin in Castle Caer Callwell, the location of the upcoming wedding, only a few days away. We are summoned to the war room; some have been here before. King, queen and princess want us to personally deliver invitations to guest in the castle. This is an old tradition originating in Waterdeep.

Bride comes from Waterdeep. Her mother and father are not present. ? That doesn't sound right.

Queen missed it Kendrick
King Dav...
Princess Taralina

Invitations are done using the Seals of Approval ceremony.

Process
1. Deliver food
2. Deliver invitation
3. Guest responds negatively
4. Act surprised
5. Attempt to convince guest
6. Guest relents, accepts and offers a gift, which used to be an official seal, but now is an object to fit into a piece of jewelry, necklace or bracelet.

A man rushes in. They confer.
Oh, we must ask you for an additional task. All the wedding gifts have been stolen. As you deliver the invitations, see if you can gather information about the stolen gifts.

We are tasked with 4 invitations.

1. Feyren, a satyr
   He complains about the noise.
   Jarik offers to make stylish earmuffs.
   And we have to steal a bottle of wine. We succeed. He accepts.
   He gives gift of wooden object.
   He seems to have been only around the study or his quarters.
   We further discuss his knowledge of the property. He is concerned with growing crops in the harsh soil.

2. Captain Kree & ?
   One is playful and acts like a pirate. When Tandur offers to spar, he admits he's not a real pirate.
   They decline because if the princess relocates the local parties will cease. We suggest party boats, pirate party boats. Success.
   No clues about the stolen gifts.

3.
Lord Aster & Lady Artemiz.
Very concerned with linage, fashion, gossip & status.
They object because the princess' parents will be lonely.
We persuade mentioning the pirate boats. Success.
We had no ideas how to get more info, as they deigned to pay us much attention.
They did mention something about forgery in Waterdeep.

4.
Name + name
in love, feed each other food.
One is alchemist, the other herbalist.
Objection: no love spoons. Jarik makes some.
Invitation: success.
We detect the herbalist doesn't know very much and was reluctant to be fed food.

We report to queen. She agrees they are suspicious. She summons them. The man changes form into a female fey, and vanishes. Seems to have teleported. We conclude this is the thief and may have captured the real husband.

The queen summons all the guests. They offer to help. We need to investigate the town.

New handout, a whole page.
For future reference, I cannot read (and internalize) rules while the game is going on. I need to actively separate from the game and read the new rules.

4 tasks
Help druids
Listen to rumors in bars
Craft stuff
& ?

We work on them as best we can. Earning points to be converted immediately or later into spells or objects.

What we learn
There are new rogues here, from Waterdeep, from the Shadow Thieves.
Satch, the hag, is probably involved, possibly as the fence.
The Shadow Thieves have the job to steal the goods. The locals feel overlooked.
The hag has an encampment
The Shadow Thieves have an encampment near Wintergreen.
Satch is looking for something of high quality, expensive.
Gnome alchemist, in-town for trading, seems to know more than he can reveal. Has mixed memories, missing memories.
Dispel Magic. Partial success.
He reveals the description of the stone cottage. A spider on the ceiling attempts to get away. Kwyjibo kills it.
TC: In hindsight, that probably prevented them from being prepared.

Long Rest
We stop by druids in the morning. Earn more points. Eat food for +20 Max HP.
Vigilant blessing
Healing potions. Never used, so returned.
Teleport to encampment.

Stone cottage with tents. We reconnoiter. We decide to enter where the voices are after using Silence. One runs into an adjacent tent. The first surrenders silently. The other is attacked and also surrenders. We learn about the plan. The hag is in the cottage with her boss.

The hag needed the loot for a ritual which had started. The loot in the other tent is being consumed by insects. Some items have already been lost. But we can take the rest after removing the insects. We have difficulty freeing the captive husband. Voices in the cottage are alerted. We flee.

We return with the remaining loot.
Partial success.

Hey there! Thanks for playing PO-BMG-MOONCA-POB-01 - The Joust of Roses today with me, Kurt Hoffstaetter, during Slot 2.

All characters earn the following:

Level Milestone
10 Downtime Days
1,000 gp (5,000 gp divided) -- on character sheet
Five Star Sapphires (1,000 gp each)
Woodcutter's Axe
Fabulist Gem
Saddle of the Cavalier

Woodcutter's Axe- now on character sheet
Weapon (Greataxe), Rare
You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

When you use this axe to make an attack against a plant (an ordinary plant or a creature with the Plant type) or a wooden object that isn’t being worn or carried, the attack deals an extra 2d6 slashing damage on a hit.

Fabulist Gem- now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon (Requires Attunement)
This glittering red gem is commonly found embedded in a ring or brooch.
While wearing the gem, you gain the following benefits.

Counterfeit Coins. You can use your action to magically create a pile of coins, worth no more than 100 gp total, in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of yourself. The pile must appear on a surface that can support it. After 1 hour, the coins vanish, regardless of where they are. Once this action is used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Illusory Fashion. As a bonus action, you can magically change the appearance of your clothing and armor. You can change the style, color, and apparent quality of what you’re wearing, or you can make it appear as if you were wearing different garments entirely. In either case, the changes wrought by this magic fail to pass physical inspection.

Saddle of the Cavalier - now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon
While in this saddle on a mount, you can't be dismounted against your will if you're conscious, and attack rolls against the mount have disadvantage.

We begin in Castle Caer Callwell, the location of the upcoming wedding, only a few days away. We are summoned to the war room; some have been here before. King, queen and princess want us to personally deliver invitations to guest in the castle. This is an old tradition originating in Waterdeep.

Bride comes from Waterdeep. Her mother and father are not present. ? That doesn't sound right.

Queen missed it Kendrick
King Dav...
Princess Taralina

Invitations are done using the Seals of Approval ceremony.

Process
1. Deliver food
2. Deliver invitation
3. Guest responds negatively
4. Act surprised
5. Attempt to convince guest
6. Guest relents, accepts and offers a gift, which used to be an official seal, but now is an object to fit into a piece of jewelry, necklace or bracelet.

A man rushes in. They confer.
Oh, we must ask you for an additional task. All the wedding gifts have been stolen. As you deliver the invitations, see if you can gather information about the stolen gifts.

We are tasked with 4 invitations.

1. Feyren, a satyr
   He complains about the noise.
   Jarik offers to make stylish earmuffs.
   And we have to steal a bottle of wine. We succeed. He accepts.
   He gives gift of wooden object.
   He seems to have been only around the study or his quarters.
   We further discuss his knowledge of the property. He is concerned with growing crops in the harsh soil.

2. Captain Kree & ?
   One is playful and acts like a pirate. When Tandur offers to spar, he admits he's not a real pirate.
   They decline because if the princess relocates the local parties will cease. We suggest party boats, pirate party boats. Success.
   No clues about the stolen gifts.

3.
Lord Aster & Lady Artemiz.
Very concerned with linage, fashion, gossip & status.
They object because the princess' parents will be lonely.
We persuade mentioning the pirate boats. Success.
We had no ideas how to get more info, as they deigned to pay us much attention.
They did mention something about forgery in Waterdeep.

4.
Name + name
in love, feed each other food.
One is alchemist, the other herbalist.
Objection: no love spoons. Jarik makes some.
Invitation: success.
We detect the herbalist doesn't know very much and was reluctant to be fed food.

We report to queen. She agrees they are suspicious. She summons them. The man changes form into a female fey, and vanishes. Seems to have teleported. We conclude this is the thief and may have captured the real husband.

The queen summons all the guests. They offer to help. We need to investigate the town.

New handout, a whole page.
For future reference, I cannot read (and internalize) rules while the game is going on. I need to actively separate from the game and read the new rules.

4 tasks
Help druids
Listen to rumors in bars
Craft stuff
& ?

We work on them as best we can. Earning points to be converted immediately or later into spells or objects.

What we learn
There are new rogues here, from Waterdeep, from the Shadow Thieves.
Satch, the hag, is probably involved, possibly as the fence.
The Shadow Thieves have the job to steal the goods. The locals feel overlooked.
The hag has an encampment
The Shadow Thieves have an encampment near Wintergreen.
Satch is looking for something of high quality, expensive.
Gnome alchemist, in-town for trading, seems to know more than he can reveal. Has mixed memories, missing memories.
Dispel Magic. Partial success.
He reveals the description of the stone cottage. A spider on the ceiling attempts to get away. Kwyjibo kills it.
TC: In hindsight, that probably prevented them from being prepared.

Long Rest
We stop by druids in the morning. Earn more points. Eat food for +20 Max HP.
Vigilant blessing
Healing potions. Never used, so returned.
Teleport to encampment.

Stone cottage with tents. We reconnoiter. We decide to enter where the voices are after using Silence. One runs into an adjacent tent. The first surrenders silently. The other is attacked and also surrenders. We learn about the plan. The hag is in the cottage with her boss.

The hag needed the loot for a ritual which had started. The loot in the other tent is being consumed by insects. Some items have already been lost. But we can take the rest after removing the insects. We have difficulty freeing the captive husband. Voices in the cottage are alerted. We flee.

We return with the remaining loot.
Partial success.

Hey there! Thanks for playing PO-BMG-MOONCA-POB-01 - The Joust of Roses today with me, Kurt Hoffstaetter, during Slot 2.

All characters earn the following:

Level Milestone
10 Downtime Days
1,000 gp (5,000 gp divided) -- on character sheet
Five Star Sapphires (1,000 gp each)
Woodcutter's Axe
Fabulist Gem
Saddle of the Cavalier

Woodcutter's Axe- now on character sheet
Weapon (Greataxe), Rare
You have a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magic weapon.

When you use this axe to make an attack against a plant (an ordinary plant or a creature with the Plant type) or a wooden object that isn’t being worn or carried, the attack deals an extra 2d6 slashing damage on a hit.

Fabulist Gem- now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon (Requires Attunement)
This glittering red gem is commonly found embedded in a ring or brooch.
While wearing the gem, you gain the following benefits.

Counterfeit Coins. You can use your action to magically create a pile of coins, worth no more than 100 gp total, in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of yourself. The pile must appear on a surface that can support it. After 1 hour, the coins vanish, regardless of where they are. Once this action is used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.

Illusory Fashion. As a bonus action, you can magically change the appearance of your clothing and armor. You can change the style, color, and apparent quality of what you’re wearing, or you can make it appear as if you were wearing different garments entirely. In either case, the changes wrought by this magic fail to pass physical inspection.

Saddle of the Cavalier - now on character sheet
Wondrous Item, Uncommon
While in this saddle on a mount, you can't be dismounted against your will if you're conscious, and attack rolls against the mount have disadvantage.
