This thread begins the next leg of the game, where GM (likely unsuccessfully) teaches of the wonders of rare-meat. Yes, I know Trump IRL likes his steak well-done, and to me that alone is evidence of controlled opposition. I still support the man, but dammit. Rare meat is the finest you can ever taste, satisfying immediate/basic hunger needs better than well meat, but also satisfying more primal urges and evolution. Remember, meat is only unsanitary if it is old or processed through a slaughter-house with poor quality control.

Enough about meat, lets get back to the game. Infernius is attempting to Leeroy Jenkins at the orcs, except that he has to climb a rope ladder to do so (cloven hooves = slower climbing). Tracy mulls about a very closed for business city that has cannons on the south-face, not yet realizing that unless she wants to go Nightmare (and thus ethereal but also glowing-in-the-dark) she's SOL.

I could've just had her ask for help eventually, and she still has an empty Bag of Holding, as well as most of Ponimaru and Copper's skins to use for a makeshift sled. In her warhorse form, she can drag 4,500 pounds.
Also, why do you want the birds gone? They can be very useful creatures. Unmodified, they can be taught at least two separate trick, like carrying heavy loads in isolated areas, or scouting-out enemy territory above the clouds. Level 9 Animal-Rearing is a chance you don't give up on a campaign, regardless of your class.

The gems and gold were a developing "main story" plot. The Birds AND the SJWs were just side dealings. Infernius only got punched out cuz he was trying to walk in the front door, he had no problems when he used the fly (except when he allowed them to surround him while he had arrows sticking out, and then he made a good choice in his response). That Thez helped was simply because at that point she was going to round up everyone to eat.

It was said earlier that everything that can be researched can be through the tower's library, right?
While Tracy's steams the eggs with her blazing-hot plot, she decides to take it easy and flip-through any relevant atlases and/or history books that could provide for more information on the surrounding cities and other geographic areas of interest, using Kefka's Mage Hand to turn the pages and rip-off Twilight. She continues doing this for hours, researching the continent and gaining some Local Knowledge as she goes.
To begin, what's the name of the city to the south? Any why do they have canons pointed at a mountain?
Why is everybody so eager to get into Cardishore?
What are the names and locations of other city-states formerly under Kefka's control?
Just wtf are "Drow" (she doesn't know yet)? And where do they live?
Where can she find an abundant supply of elephant steaks?

Ikr. Tracy has the local knowledge skill, but it hasn't really come in handy.
Try researching for your Nobility and Royalty Knowledge skills to try and figure out the politics of this continent, particularly who rules what when the Emperor isn't around. It'd be good to figure out the alignments of the rulers of surrounding countries. This area may border a communist superpower for all we know.

Alot of the history books in the library are outdated by several hundred years, but:
The city to the south is called Durpistan. Its a communist mining city full of,... not the brightest. Their economy is shit, and as a result their equipment is shoddy at best and dangerous in general. There is no reference to the cannons.
Cardishore doesn't appear in any of the books, apparently having been founded after publishing. Kefka has no mention in the books either.
Drow are not known to have any established city-states, and while uncommon, are listed periodically in various mentions and anecdotes.

Yes, assuming that they're found in the same areas. However, this is not the climate or environment for Elephants.
Drow appearances and activity tend to revolve around individuals, rather than group actions.
Previous to Kefka, there were a number of independent city states which had fostered reasonably peaceful relations and a thriving system of economic trade. Each state had one or more players representing them, who would tend to conflict and adversity, while the people they worked on behalf of would operate in their own communities. It was a very civic nationalistic setup, and aside from natural disasters or the occasional Dr. Evil person, most led successful if occasionally difficult lives.
