thanks, Jeff and I have been scheming on this for a while... There have been a bunch of mentions of 'horses' in Adamant related posts... I think it's come off brilliantly!

I appreciate Dave's unbridled enthusiasm on the subject. And now with some land in the picture, there's no more stalling.

Nice Dave. Shorak is going to be asking for lots of rides with Adamant.

I'm sorry, I meant the smaller coffer. I knew the whole shebang wouldn't fit. I was typing on my phone and wasn't clear enough. No, I understood that. Of course, the main chest is very big. But even the smaller coffer is still much too big for a gnome-sized little backpack. I mean to physically fit through the "mouth" of the pouch. The coffer is foot and a half long, half that in width; box-shaped. Like a large jewelry box. It couldn't be squeezed into the opening of a small haversack. |

FYI, something I haven't bothered with thus far but plan on observing in the future (especially off-ship), is this optional rule from Xanathar's Guide to Everything. Even magical armor counts.

"...pokes at his ice self with his pact dagger..."
Now there's a visual! Excellent phrasing, Ken.

"We are in some danger here you'll remember. Do you think this…" Adamant waves towards Belarin and pauses as he notices the warlock poking himself with a dagger… "BELARIN!... I can't believe I have to say this… STOP POKING YOURSELF WITH THAT DAGGER…" Adamant has stepped into the role of Adult Supervision. |

 Yeah but the question is if Belarin accidently cuts himself, doing a point of damage with a melee weapon, would the Armor of Agathys do 5hp of cold damage to the creature who caused the damage... Belarin? |

Belarin? It would do cold damage against the dagger, which would then transfer to the holder of Belarin's pact. FREEDOM! |

Jeff, roughly how much time has passed since Cali sent out her bird?

"Will do," Melethos says and wanders off to collect whatever dry wood could be found in a jungle. Streko will go with Melethos and help collect dry wood. Perhaps some herbs or edible mushrooms during his exploration, something to add flavor to their meals. How deep into the jungle are Melethos and Streko intending to go? To search for food requires going further in than just looking for firewood. |

So, looking for firewood would be a Wisdom (Perception) check. Looking for edible food in the wild (if you're putting in sufficient time) would be a Wisdom (Survival) check (possibly combined with Nature, especially in unfamiliar environments).
Identifying things in nature is what would draw an Intelligence (Nature) check.

All right. I'll do the correct roll and post it.

"Apparently everyone's a magician, now." I'm pretty sure Melethos has used this cantrip before in front of others a few times before. It really shouldn't be news to anyone. |

Belarin takes a few steps from the chest. "I'm going to check," he says. "Long Shadows is over." He sits down cross-legged on the sand and pulls out the obsidian mirror. He waves his pact dagger over it and says, "Show me Sem." __________________________________________ Belarin casts scrying. Remember that Scrying takes 10 minutes to cast. You okay with that? There's a very good chance you'll know much more in just a few minutes regardless. |

Oh, damn, that's right. I'm so used to doing this is relaxed settings that I'd forgotten about the time factor. OK, let's drop the idea. I'll delete the post.

Kal will use Telekinesis to lift the chest and place it 4 squares north of its current position (out of the quicksand). Darren, have Kal make a magical ability check (d20 + Charisma mod) against DC 15 to pull the chest out of the sand. With advantage. |

Thanks.
Also, Telekinesis can only move creatures/objects in one direction at a time. So he can move it straight up this round (because he can’t really move it diagonally through a bunch more sand (straight up is the clearest path OUT) and then another direction next round.

Jeff, so I'm clear, it appears all three Eldritch Blasts missed. Have I got that correct? No. Just that it did minimal damage. Precisely what you rolled. Two rays hit. |
