This was posted in the conflict folder, and I laughed a lot:
"To be quite honest, I never thought I would have to post something like this. Basically someone or some people are... having issues... and pointing fingers in the wrong direction (I tend to bite them). Granted I'm not implicated since I'm utterly not good at wizardly things or game mechanics, but some people dear to me are being accused. I was hoping someone could just give some clarification to a few mechanics in this log. All names were bumped out and I even got rid of the animal companion to save face of the person allegedly attacked.
What I had the old raised eyebrow about in this log are the fact that the numbers in the initial weapon flare cast dont seem to add up, tho there may be hidden factors or somesuch I'm not aware of (and hope someone here is!). Also, the darn thing has a typo (yes, bust it Krakii!!) The last querry is about the mouse. I noticed in the rest of the log that every time someone entered/left that it would toss out a room description. Suddenly there is this mouse whispering to the person that came from nowhere, never left, and didn't show up. Can familiars or something like them hide or whisper?
Sorry about the unpleasant post, but thanks guys for helping to clear it up. I never like making assumptions so again, thanks for any info and opinions about this.....
The wind here is too fierce for you to see anything but flying snow. You can barely make out general paths to the west, southwest and southeast, and hope that going one of those directions will lead to a bit of shelter. You also see some full leather, a leather helm, a war hammer, an arctic titan, some cuirbouilli leather, a reinforced shield, a handaxe, some full leather, a leather helm, a war hammer and a (random animal companion) that is flying around.
Obvious paths: southeast, southwest, west
A frost giant lumbers in, followed by a swirling snowstorm!

A wave if energy is cast at you!
CS: +434 - TD: +175 + CvA: +2 + d100: +99 - -5 == +400
Warding failed!
Your vultite warblade is struck with the cast.
A searing bolt of lightning leaps from a dark-bladed vultite warblade in your right hand.
... 30 points of damage!
Stunning arc of electricity fuses left arm at elbow.
You are stunned for 5 rounds!

A (random animal companion) lunges his head forward in an attempt to spear a frost giant with his beak but impacts nothing but air.

Unable to focus clearly, you blindly evade the bolt!

Heavy spark to abdomen. Bet that hurts.

An arctic titan swings a handaxe at you!
Nearly insensible, you desperately evade the attack!
A searing bolt of lightning leaps from a dark-bladed vultite warblade in your right hand.
... 20 points of damage!
Heavy shock sends you to the ground with convulsions!
The glowing specks of energy surrounding you suddenly shoot off in all directions, then quickly fade away.
The brilliant luminescence fades from around you.
The silvery luminescence fades from around you.
The bright luminescence fades from around you.
You become solid again.
You no longer feel so dextrous.
You return to normal color.
You seem to lose the thorny barrier that surrounds you.
You feel the aura of confidence leave you.
You feel the inner strength leave you.
You feel your extra strength departing.
The air about you stops shimmering.
It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...
You realize that you have no outstanding favors which Lorminstra owes you, and without having accomplished a deed for Her, your soul is in danger of vanishing from the land forever!
