How long have we been traveling with the escort and how well do they know us.

about two months. They know you well enough to know if you drink when you stop at towns, what you usually drink, and what you like to have with it.

The bard more than likely knows what your favorite songs are and by enlarge has guessed your personalities and psychologies based on that, your mannerisms, and spells.

The druid seems to stupid for his own good to know anything about you. Though a wise man said it takes a really intelligent man to play the stupid fool.

Everyone else seems to stick to themselves, but they know enough to learn in a two month period.
 

(I'm assuming we're using this as an OOC thread?) If so:

Kaz's told history is more or less accurate, and every word of it is true however he left several details known only to him. This includes, but is not limited to the fact that his personal power he gathered was his entering the clergy of Gargauth and gaining a good deal amount of power before returning to his half-brother, who interestingly enough is named Khael.

Kaz slew Khael (NPC wise an aristocrat) with some quiet death spells, then used a Consume Likeness spell to steal his brother's form, which is the one he is using right now infront of the group (the form is younger than him since Kaz slew his older brother several years ago, his age now having past the age of his brother when he died).

While moving from city to city before entering Waterdeep, Kaz furthered Gargauth's cause, sealing the fates of many people while causing more to be worshippers of his deity, for indeed one of his main goals is to become the (or a) Chosen of the Hidden Lord, but he knows that day is long from now.


Currently Kaz has taken several, sometimes painful steps to conceal his identity from the others, his enhanced bluff check should have hepled to make sure that others have a hard time 'reading him', and to others knowledge (save pehraps a few other PCs, depending on their backgrounds), he is at most a cleric of a philosophy (power or similar thought). Kaz's partner, the Wraith King always stays out of sight, traveling underneath the ground as the group moves ahead, being more of a spy, and contingency incase times get rough (even then, a darkness spell is usually used to conceal his presence), his familiar travels with Kaz, and the group probably thinks that Winter (the bat familiar) is Kaz's familiar or pet.

Kaz has also, in the last two months, approached any member of the group he thinks he can corrupt into Gargauth's faith, saying honey-tongued words to gain their trust. So far, he has not spoken directly of the Hidden Lord, or his faith in him, although he has carefully examined those who would be willing to make a change of faith, and/or what would he need to offer them to make them do so.

Edit-Is my IC post a bit long? I can probably shorten it by leaving out some parts if you think its best...dunno how much roleplaying vs. combat we should do here. -OOC note: my character was willing to share so much of his history because of an offer of power and he is indeed very power-hungry, although he did leave out several parts, partially because of wisdom and partially because he knows that too much information can allow others to get an advantage over you.

Also, is Chosen-ship even a plausible goal or insanity, I know that in some games it can be crazy when people want to be the Chosen of some particular deity...tell me your opinion (trim, and anyone else who wants to comment)

Well, Sollir, you've stated that Kaz has aproached many of the members of the party over the past two months. I'll assume that means he's spoken to my character, Hassan Araba. He probably knows, then (As does anyone else who's even remotely spoken with Hassan) that all He cares about is becoming as powerful as he can, and destroying the types of people that he doesn't like (Goody two shoes, etc). You all would basically know everything that's in his history as posted in Rogues Gallery. As for the secret, well I'm posting that soon as I'm done here.

What that basically means, mr priest, is that he is probably willing to join your god if it will increase his power in some substantial, 'real' way. (Real means a way that he can comprehend)
 

Fun Stuff Jemal :)

Still using this as an OOC thread (perhaps make a new one or just keep on using tihs one), questions still pending for Trimeulose whenever he has time.

Kaz's Spell List (while in the wilderness):

Spells per Day (6/7+1/6+1/6+1/4+1/3+1/2+1):
Domains: Charm, Mysticism, Trickery
0-Detect Magic x6
1-Charm Person*, Cure Light Wounds, Protection from Good, Sanctuary (x2), Shield of Faith (x2), Wieldskill.
2-Cure Moderate Wounds x2, Endurance, Hold Person (x2), Invisibility*, Lesser Restoration
3-Bestow Curse, Cure Serious Wounds, Magic Vestment (x2), Greater Magic Weapon (x2), Nondetection*
4-Cure Critical Wounds (x2), Dimensional Anchor (x2), Weapon of the Deity**
5-Charm Monster*, Flamestrike, Greater Command, True Seeing
6-Aspect of the Deity*, Geas, Heal
* Domain Spell

Currently 1 Shield of Faith and 1 Cure Moderate Wounds spell are used, since Kaz imbued them upon Thomas Hobbe's char.

Hmm....if there is any room for me, I would like to play evil.

Female Human Paladin or Fighter, Leadership Feat, military, world domination theme, nothing too strenous there......

Unless the DM rules otherwise that's impossible.

A Paladin who ceases being Lawful Good looses all her special abilities, mount, spells, etc.

*don't feel bad if u didn't know it, I'm a looser who's nearly memorized both the PHB and DMG. :D

Well that's no biggie...I can just be a full-fighter....or take one of the prestige fighter classes.
