Talos, the bartender, looked at Eoa and shook his head. "Ye would be best te leave the horse here and trade 'er in for a ridin lizard... Best ways to gt through the jungles are riding lizard or drakkensteeds. Anythin that can deal with the heat, move quick through the brush and fight off the monsters with ye. Horses are at a disadvantage here. Also flyin's a no go if ye wanna live. Here, watch this." Talos set a tablet on the table and it lit up brightly, a classical sounding music jumping out with a bold, jovial voice speaking. A picture flew up in the middle of the table and illustrated little mock adventurers in a playful manner, illustrating all the actions and settings spoken of.<br/><br/>(Everyone present roll will saves or be nauseated by this crappy, cliche voice.)<br/><br/>"Cati'n Bru and YOU! Greetings Adventurer, I have reason to believe you wish to tangle with the awesome adventure of Cati'n Bru, the very newest jungle in the exploration of Ethrenia by the wonderful and expensive Empire, Danta Kwan Dire. If you plan on journeying deep into this marvelous and yet perilous land here may be some words of advice for you!"<br/><br/>"The jungles of Cati'n Bru are dangerous, make sure to equip yourself well before traveling into Cati'n Bru. Your greatest allies in this region will be your friendly neighborhood clerics and rangers. These lovable and wondrous people have knowledge of healing and often have the wherewithal to keep a good directional sense and be a sound voice of reason in dangerous and confusing areas of the jungle! Make sure, if you do anything in a combat scenario, that these people are protected above all others to increase the survival of the party as a whole. Remember Rangers and Cleric are YOUR FRIENDS! Furthermore the jungle is home to artificial AND natural traps of all kinds. Having a resident trap finder around is always a good little part of the adventure!"<br/><br/>"Next you will need to know transportation through the jungle lands! Please note that flying is a NoNo in this situation unless it takes place at least three hundred feet below the canopy. Extra movement would agitate the creatures and higher plant beings in the trees above and the jungle would launch seed pods that would home in and attack flying creatures. For this reason, all flying in Cati'n Bru is highly discouraged unless at a suitable altitude. The best methods of transport would be hefty ground units, capable of being ridden and also capable of handling the heat and harsh areas of the jungle. Gigantic lizards and big snakes are recommended and Drakkensteeds are also a useful ally as a mount in this area. Drakkensteeds can fly low and maneuver through vine laden areas.<br/><br/>Finally, remember that you can always jump in with friends! Seldom do many lone adventurers survive Cati'n Bru but, with the power of friendship, most survive! Your chances of survival with good buddies like the ones in my party are significantly higher in Cati'n Bru! Make sure you pack a bedroll and bathe regularly! Good hygiene is important in the vast jungles of Cati'n Bru. Have a good journey, fellow adventurer and may luck be  on your side!" This last picture showed a tall, grinning human wearing holy garb and a gleaming full plate suit, his arm around a young dark skinned wizard with a look of anger. Beside them were a short elven woman of incredible attractiveness and leather armor and looming over her just behind was a Half Orc with a chain shirt, a great axe slung on his back. Above the half orc a name was written<em>Torth Grommelhammer.</em>The elven woman's name seemed to be<em>Ton Verada.</em>The man with shining full plate had<em>Me! Baccus Merin!</em>The wizard's name was spelled out as well, in the form of<em> Talos Cultain.</em><br/><br/>((Good time for all of you to again roll Knowledge history checks if you have them.))<br/><br/>Talos sighed. "That's me in the robes. "'Ah hated that man so much but he was a good healer. Anyway, you all should decide hard on it."<br/><br/>Meanwhile Elda finally piped up after drinking a piping hot bowl of stew. "That was horrible. That guy was sooo annoying." Elda looked at the party. "Anyway, My suggestion for treasure is slightly on par with Atreyus. Still, when we are out in the open jungle I don't think it will matter. What we can use we can borrow and pay for when we are out. Until then we can take our pick of weapons and gear so that we are equipped best for what is to come. If people disagree on who gets a particular item in the jungles we can have a contest, a short contest of something or other that will test who gets it decided by the party as a whole. Everyone but the contestants will be judges and decide after the contest is complete."<br/><br/>Elda thought on Atreyus' idea. "I don't think we could use mountains. A few mountains pop up in Cati'n Bru but they are dangerous and enormous. It would waste more time to do such a thing than simply trudging through the jungles."
