Think of the fun you will have finding out. 
If I remember rightly, night hags take damage from silver or +3 weapons, but there are many monsters that laugh at iron and silver but are damaged by magic.
Why do you think I said we should keep it 
Dear Vikings,
I’ve just had a ‘vision’ and will be keeping my second Battle Axe…
DM,
Night Hag, huh - you know too much! :eek:
More seriously, can Ulf carry two Battle Axes and a Shield?
As Sorely will hear a bunny running around the boat as he boards. “Umm… Pardon me Ulf did you understand your boat was infested with rabbits? Not… not that I mind… I mean they will taste better than the same fish day in and day out. There goes one of the little buggers now!” Sorely will try and chase a rabbit into a corner of the boat. “Truly this is strange, I always thought these were burrowing animals.” Sorely will nervously tap his finger drum and hum out a tune.
To Brjarni: “Worry not about the villagers and information. I feel my voice and young figure commonly allow me to listen and converse well with people who don’t quite know me. And, well, if needed I can change their mind with… with my music really.” Sorely will clear his throat as his voice breaks at the end of the conversation and smile. “Sorry about that”.
I can try to get local knowledge when we get to Vectis, or if need Charm Person[COLOR=GREEN] someone for information.
I’ve no use for the spare axe, but thanks for the offer.
Actually, since Ivar is a True Neutral and cannot spontaneously cast healing or harming spells, he’s elected to command undead rather than turn them. However, he can’t (well, can but won’t) continue to command them between battles; he must lay them to rest immediately after the conclusion of a fight.
:sigh:
A wizard can dream, can’t he? Looks like Osvald will just give a collar to one of the little buggers and that’ll be “Wee Bunny”. The rest, he’ll care not about.
Osvald however loves his space, and keeps his trunk there. A man’s got to have some place to call home after all? He’ll just sit back for a while now and watch the others stumble about with the rabbits, while he feeds Wee Bunny in the meanwhiles.
Silly Vikings…
“So… when are we going to be going about snake hunting?” he calls out calmly petting his pet. *Hmmm… perhaps I can fit the Wee Bunny into my sleeve? * He thinks to himself. *What do you think Kim? Or you Unnamed Voice in my Head? 'Tis a mighty fine rabbit, no? Yes, you is! * “You’re a mighty fine rabbit indeed!”
*You mean it’s not for me? 
*
All right, I’ll leave it alone
(not Kim’s voice)
What would YOU do with the Rabbit? Maybe we can work something out?
Ulf apologises for withdrawing the offer of the Axe.
He looks quizzically at Ivar, decides that the morals of controlling Undead are not his business and asks Ivar “In a battle, how do we know which Undead are under your control?”
Ulf thanks Sorely for offering to gather information. This will help Ulf get into more battles!
Ulf asks “When you are playing your battle music, do you automatically stop when hit? Should we try to keep attackers away from you?”
Eat it! What else are they for?
It’s singing and chanting rather than playing, and unless he’s kayoed, silenced, or immobilised, he can continue to act normally - merely being hit doesn’t interrupt him.
DM, just tidying up:
Ulf’s got his necklace, right?
Do we need to say what Gods we worship?
I’m confident (unless Osvald’s conversation is interrupted) that we can sail to Vectis now.
Ulf has his necklace.
I assume that all of you venerate all of the Aesir to a greater or lesser extent, and will tend to address any prayers you have to whichever of them is most likely to be interested in the subject. Of course Ivar is especially devoted to Odin, and his spell availability reflects this.
DM,
If Ivar is trying to control undead, do we fighters need to move out of his way?
P.S. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Jorund liked Thor - the hammers and the lightning, you know!
Sorry I’ve been away from internet contact for a couple of days
“Me try to understand we go to town on Vectis and try to find altar. . . Me do like wabbit it better then fish and if me no find fishys me always get to eat Osvald’s friend. . . Me no know what else there is here we go now?” Jorund starts trying to figure out how to kill a rabbit with a hammer and still have something eddible left.
*Er… Um… would I have to eat him too? Wait. Are you Me? Or perhaps the question is first before I go off to consume my friends, I should ask first, who are You?
Can’t we eat another of them instead? Like how Jorund is trying to do? Must it be THIS one? I rather am partial to Mr. Wee Bun.
*
*It can be another one if you like. But rat tastes all right if there’s nothing better.
Who am I? Look behind your right shoulder *
Ivar can do the biz with undead as long as they have a clear view of him - behind a shield-wall wouldn’t really do, but any kind of open order is fine, you don’t need to stick him out in front
Osvald looks over his right shoulder, and sees…?
I swear, if this disembodied voice is pulling a trick on me…
The suspense is killing me! :eek:
Osvald sees a smallish, almost spectacularly ugly reptilian head - like that of a tiny dragon, if they came about cat-sized - looking at him with bright intelligent eyes from a few inches away. The creature’s skin seems to change colour as he watches, settling down to a bright reddish brown. There are some gasps from one or two of the thralls who happen to be looking this way.
The creature’s tail seems to end in a large (for its size) stinger.
