<strong>Dexter</strong><br/><br/>Dirae seemed wary of his logic, looking at him with disbelief as he cast his spell. The chainmail was surprisingly weak in its magical energies, despite the swirling currents coursing through each of the rings. It was not enchanted as his breastplate was, but the material used in its' construction was inherently magical, perhaps from the elemental planes.<br/><br/>"I seen plenty a boat sink when you poke a hole in the bottom." She said with a shrug and a shake of her head, "But you weren't wrong before... Well let's see, we might be able to take the valuable stuff by hand."<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">Masterwork Chainmail. Dexter's Knowledge(The Planes) identifies it as Riverine material.<br/>+1 Dagger, though covered in crust and grime making it harmless.<br/>Nonmagical Short Swords [x2], Rusted, next to useless as a weapon.<br/>Nonmagical trident, Rusted, next to useless as a weapon.<br/>Other items all nonmagical.

A living creature inside can survive for ten minutes and.... wuhhh... there wouldn't be an easy way for her to avoid having the scrolls and books fall out, though. <br/><br/>Also, it isn't relevant at the moment mechanically... but I've decided that in this setting, extraplanar travel is extremely difficult. Spells like Astral Projection, Contact Other Plane, Planar Binding, and Gate auto-fail for 99% of mortals who attempt it. As such, nobody knows those spells. Most are allowed to pass into the ethereal plane and other such planes that overlap the material plane, but they do not permit mortals to 'hop' any further.<br/><br/>The reason for this? Well, that's secret. ;-)<br/><br/>Setting-wise, this explains why so much remains to be explored even within the material plane. Most people believe that there <em>are</em> other planes that are just beyond mortal reach. Some believe it is all theoretical and unproven, and a few doubt that they even exist. Ditto for all the gods and pantheons. Obviously clerics are in the first category, and just about all of the goblins too. All the gods act pretty discretely, to include the goblin pantheon.<br/><br/>The reason for that is also a secret. ::)</div></div><br/><strong>Ellen</strong><br/><br/>The half-celestial grinned, his back turned to the sight. "I'll say." He said with a chuckle and a wink.<br/><br/>He fluttered forth and bounded in a circle around her, "I think it's the biggest city in the world now. See how far it goes?" Indeed, the place had long outgrown the ancient walls, with smaller and more recent structures extending almost to the horizon and beyond. Perhaps a neccesity for a race whose lifespan was even shorter than that of a human's. "Of course... Doesn't compare to the skyfleet!"<br/><br/>Rathael laughed again, throwing his wings out as he did a few aerial tricks to sate his windlust. "Shall we go down?" He asked, "Where would you like to go first?"<br/><br/><strong>Leander</strong><br/><br/>The girl seemed taken aback when he offered some water set out by the attendants earlier. She took hold of the bowl, confusedly and uncertain of his intent. She murmured again in the Yuan-ti tongue and then slowly sipped some of the water.<br/><br/>"Sa?" She asked expectantly, offering it back to him.
