Charming plane of reality, this, though I don't at all recall reading about it in Mordenkainen's Disquisition on the Subject of Planar Travel or in Braum's Glossary of Layered Multiversity. Actually, if this plane is recorded at all in the Cobalt Reserve, I haven't heard of it. It certainly resonates Chaotic, which at least means we aren't in Hell. Relieving!

Perusal of this enchanted box leads me to see there's at least a few wayward travelers snatched from our own Prime Materia. Conterminous dimensional reality is so inconvenient, isn't it? Well, at least we're all connected to one another. Where is everyone staying? I'm not far off the beach yet.

I'm the sorcerer known as Gilmore. A pleasure, under other circumstances.

	Never heard of you, sorcerer, and most of what you said is gobbledygook - but you seem a charming fellow and have good taste, if you chose the beach. It's where I am too. Killian Jones, but you can call me Hook if you'd like. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Truly, the highest of compliments. Although I suppose it would be more accurate to say I had little choice in the matter of where I ended up, else I would still be doing inventory on my new acquisition for Gilmore's Glorious Goods! Which...admittedly is probably how I ended up here. Unstable arcanery is an occupational hazard I've managed to avoid for this long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And what, pray tell, makes your goods so glorious? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Why, superb craftsmanship! Reasonable price! And, of course, sturdy and reliable enchantments to make your life all the more convenient. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If I know one thing about magic, mate, it's that it never makes life more convenient. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh dear, you must have very bad wizards where you're from! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	piracy 2018-05-23 06:15 pm UTC (link)
	Bad in a few ways, I'd say. And the witches are even worse. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, perhaps in time I can change (or maybe even just loosen) your opinion on us spell-slingers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	piracy 2018-05-23 06:24 pm UTC (link)
	Perhaps. My daughter's mum is a witch but she's a shitstain on humanity so you've got your work cut out for you. I welcome the chance for you to loosen me up though, darling. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Something tells me you'd be fantastic at Scrabble. I found a cute little town that has a dog for a mayor. If I didn't know for a fact this wasn't heaven, I'd swear it was. Oh! And I'm Sally. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	shaungilmore 2018-05-23 02:06 am UTC (link)
	If it has anything to do with money, it is my specialty! Blessed be, Sally. Would you say that the dog is an apt politician? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh great. Another magic user. Perhaps you should all club together and use your resources to get us all out of here....if you wouldn’t mind. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Not a fan of arcanists? Admittedly, warlocks tend to get up to all sorts of wickedness but I'm nothing of the sort. Interplanar travel is within my abilities. Extraplanar travel, though, not so much my bailiwick. I don't traverse planes, I leave that for the adventurers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	haberdashery 2018-05-23 04:47 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not a fan of those who abuse their power. It tends to give them a sense of entitlement and never really goes well for anyone else. Well, I used to 'traverse' planes. But my portal is broken. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shaungilmore 2018-05-23 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	I'll put that accusatory subtext aside for the moment-- do you know what went wrong with your portal? I am an artificer, so tinkering with magical items is my profession. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	haberdashery 2018-05-23 08:08 pm UTC (link)
	You asked. My portal--my hat, was squashed. I'm looking to get the items I need to tailor it back together again. This isn't just some trinket or artifact. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm completely lost except when you said sorcerer. Do you use mana to power your spells? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	shaungilmore 2018-05-25 04:12 am UTC (link)
	Ah, well, the term has scene some traction in certain esoteric academic circles to refer to the way the soul greases the wheels of change in the Weave of Magic, but I don't feel particularly attached to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pyrohelix 2018-05-25 04:53 am UTC (link)
	I'm ... um ... what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shaungilmore 2018-05-25 05:44 am UTC (link)
	Hmm, how to explain this...well, magic is a part of me, my body soaks it up and stores it like a reservoir, which I can then warp in specific ways. I don't cast "spells," per se, at least not as a wizard would. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pyrohelix 2018-05-30 05:20 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I think I get it. I do something similar, but I don't store it. I tap it as I need and use what I have, what I call mana, to power my spells. I'm not a wizard though, I'm a Planeswalker. (Reply to this) (Parent)
