Muddle in Middlesea

66.31.53.133:

A central location for the information we've collected on what happened at the Convocation, in the first run, and what the current status inside the time halt is.

Things we know so far (with information source listed if possible):

==Before It Went Awry==
* Pirate Queen Cara, her first mage Federico, William (maybe an organizer), other pirates like Gale, and servants like Nesh, showed up a few days early before the Conclave started. (Nesh and other servants were there before Cara/Federico/Gale arrived)
* Managaratha was at the Blue table, and chatted with a diplomat named Rickard from Melmane, also General Petrov and Mage Marek. (Recalled by [[Managaratha]])
* Dinner was:
**A ton of people from Red - they sent five delegations instead of one.
**30-40 from Orange including servants (and some Saurians)
**Similar from Purple and Yellow
**Only about 8 from Blue, including [[Mage Martek]] and one Saurian, [[General Petrov]].
**Green has multiple delegations, once from each of the three Kingdoms, but they are all small. All named Elves.
* Post Dinner, pre-Attack
** [[Luigi]] says [[Cult of Alan]] would be happy to see Managaratha again (Recalled by [[Managaratha]])
** Federico spoke with Managaratha.
*** Managaratha spent two years before the Conclave strongly lobbying for all zones to be represented.
**** Federico expected Managaratha to tell him why.
*** Managaratha is more fragged than Federica has ever seen him.
*** Vidan was fragged, even worse than Managaratha.
**** Well, something closely akin to fragged, anyway.

*Win Dae (she/her) - Minister of Repercussions
*Han Cho - Minister of Grain
*Kachest - Minister of Naval Trade

*Foran Zakar - Minister of Redactions
*Li Karest - Minister of the Borders
*Jun Chang - Minister of Fortune

====Advisors and Liaisons====
*Za - Lord of Light, Priest of Tam
*Vesper - the Silent One, Priest of Tem
*Vidan - Priest of Navere
*Edev Guran - Representative of the Head Stallion

====Others====
*3rd rank sub-minister of State / Foreign Affairs
*3rd rank sub-minister of War
*12-15 other 3rd rank bureaucrats, all mooks.
*An assortment of servants, etc.

===The Orange Dinner===
====The principal delegates====
* Guildmaster Lady Isabella Horenth from Vani
* Guildmaster Lady Marianna from Rin'yan
* Guildmaster Stefan - priest of Jord from Eaglofto
* Journeyman Victor - Saurian from Kor

==== Priests ====
* Stella - priestess of the Goddess from Rin'yan
* Luigi - Cult of Alan member from Rin'yan
* Astrid - priest of Rush from Vani
* Alfonz - priest of Tem from Vani
* Georgi - Saurian, itinerant priest of Tam

== Current State ==
* The Pirate Queen is on the ground in (location), covered in blood. (Noted by Gale.)
* Sergeant Susie is badly injured; she is fighting an orc who is uninjured, and several fallen paladins lay around her. (Noted by Diomarch)
* A dwarf is chasing a redcap who is running away. (Noted by Scout.)
* Westly (fox pooka) is in the Yellow zone somewhere but is hard to see. (Noted by Scout)
* Vrok (troll) and Astros (high elf) are together - Vrok is guarding Astros while Astros does some sort of green counterspell.
* There are several dead cataurs in a room with several dead saurians, and a couple more cataurs running through the keep. (noted by Nesh)
* Luigi is barricaded in a room with a wall blocking it; some other non-named Orange delegates are also there. (noted by Stella)
* There's a Yellow zone that's hard to see/changing even though time isn't passing; speculation is there's an Unreality effect going on there.
* A Blue mage performed an extra-effort Blue spell to make all of Middlesea one battlemap. They are probably/possibly in the midst of a Berserker rage, as a consequence. (Discovered in [[Second Run]] by Gale when she did her own wild-blue-spell on the battlemap.)
* An area of effect Green spell is spraying amnesia mist everywhere. (Noted by Lutenania, scout for Their Majesty of the Plains.)
* An Oasis miracle of isolation is in place. (Noted by Scout.)
* A Time miracle of some sort is in place. (Noted by Bordan, priest of Rush.)
* There are a whole bunch of orcs (Noted by flyover in [[First Run]].)
* There are lion prints on the outer wall. (Noted by Nesh.)
* There are slith tracks sneaking into the keep. (Noted by Vidan.)
* There are more than ten "sides" involved, but that might include factions within delegations; e.g., there are five separate delegations from Red, one for each kingdom and one for the Paladins of Rush. It's not clear whether those count as five different "sides".(From Bordan.)
* Baron Volstack took a lot of damage right before the timestop, which was shared with Duchess Zerbina over the lifelink (she has healed since). She is concerned that he be gotten to ASAP when the timestop breaks. (Shared by Duchess Zerbina. This is a secret.)

== Things Remembered ==
* Vidan was involved in a combat-time ritual of several people-- probably Fivist priests and mages, not priests of other religions-- to counteract the amnesia spell.
* Vidan recalls: ''Flint looks from the dead redcap to the unconscious Scout. "Federico, with me. The rest of you, see what you can do for him. If anything unfortunate happens, tell Her Majesty that Futeau is the traitor."''
* [[Gyvail]], a priest of Orellian, is with Caitlyn and Westrack, and was holding. (Recalled by Vidan.)
* Nesh remembers that dinner went... fine. He served the Yellow delegation.
* Managaratha remembers having a conversation with the Blue delegation.
* Stella remembers being sent to talk to the Purple delegation and feel them out "since you can't actually commit the Guild to anything."
* Stella remembers that "Luigi volunteers to speak with the Priests from the Yellow delegation" after dinner.

Endurance

2023-01-24T19:41:13Z

66.31.53.133:

Doing stuff makes you tired. If you get tired enough, you start operating at less than peak efficiency. How tired you can get is a function of your Con. Various things (see below for partial list) cost you endurance points. A night's sleep gets you Con/5 endurance points back. A day of not-doing-anything-that-could-possibly-be-tiring also gets you Con/5 endurance back. Endurance is generally hard to recover with magic.

You can calculate Con/5 with fractional values or by rounding in the normal mathy way, but choose one method and stick with it.

<h2> Effects of being tired</h2>

As you get tired, the following effects kick in (cumulative): (Number of End gathered in multiples of Con)
* 0.5 roll one less die on any stat that's higher than your Con (DI excepted, resistance rolls excepted)
* 1.0 All rolls are at +1 difficulty
* 1.5 Number of successes maxes out at your Con (DI excepted, resistance rolls excepted)
* 2.0 All rolls are at +2 (total) difficulty
* 2.5 Number of successes maxes out at your successes on a Con check (DI excepted, resistance rolls excepted)
* 3.0 All rolls are at +3 (total) difficulty
* 3.5 Start making Con checks to stay conscious: hourly, and one each time you spend End.
* 4.0 All rolls are at +4 (total) difficulty
* 4.5 Pass out.

For example, Con 5 or 6 means you are not tired at 2 End gathered, and you are slightly tired at 3 End gathered.

<h2>Things that make you tired</h2>
* <b>Activity (END cost)</b>
* A day's travel (1)
* A day's hard travel (2)
* Combat (1) (up to CON of speed rolls in a short burst)
* A night without sleep (1) (more time without sleep will cost more)
* Magic (see [[Colors of Magic|the Magic rules]])
* A day without food (1)
* A day without water (4)
* A day's politicking (1)
