DM Harpwizard’s Heroes of Elsir Vale (Inactive)

Game Master GM Harpwizard

Tirion - was likely protection from arrows.

Also, she's still on the battlemap - so you can get close in a single move.

DMHW's description was that she waved her hands and physically deflected the arrows. That was why I was asking.

Hi Tirion, thanks for checking with me and keeping me straight. I am often under serious time pressures to finish a large battle post such as this one and in my haste I misread the note about Manyshot in Deflect Arrow and interpreted it to say that she deflects all arrows shot at her in that round. However, I realize now that that is from one arrow or many arrows from an opponent with manyshot. I will take off more damage from Thordak's bolts. Thanks for your patience with me. :-)

Round 3

Tirion, looks at the rogue who just managed to escape from his entanglement and attacks him as a full round action until he is vanquished.

"You should do something better with your life than simply looting from nobles!"

Magnimarana 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (11) + 14 = 25
Damage 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Magnimarana 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (18) + 14 = 32
Damage 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9

Magnimarana 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15
Damage 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17

DMHW - did she really move as far as she is on the map? It seems she moved through 2 squares of difficult terrain, jumped, and then double moved (unless she has a movement of 80' which would not be until level for most monks.) This would be 4 move actions it seems.

ROUND 3

Bofus drops his bow, and immediatley takes off in the air after the fleeing villain, drawing rapier on the way.

I'll fly my full 100' east, trying to keep pace with her. If I can start to close, I'll do so.

How are you getting 100'? I thought it was 60' for the fly + 30' for the haste. Thus, 90', or 180' for a double move.

Round 3

From the roof of the rook, Thordak fires down on the rogue who has escaped down onto the street (AC21). With haste, he reloads quickly and fires three shots at him.

Crossbow 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11
Damage 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Crossbow 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
Damage 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

Crossbow 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Damage 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Round 3

• Bofus flies 100 feet east down the street gaining on the nimble woman.
• The black tentacles continue to constrict Ulgarek and Ripper, weakening them both further.
• Edvard hovers a few feet off of the battlement walk, blocking the way for the rogue to get by. He then dismisses the Black Tentacles.
• Tirion flies down the road to get ahead of the tatooed woman. Using a double move of fly, you easily get ahead of her.
• Mantooth, making a full round attack, strikes down the rogue at the bottom of the stairs with several great swings of Magnimarana.
• Thordak fires three shots at the Rogue Balog, but the bolts miss and hit the cobblestone streets below.
• Balog (AC21) drops his hands and calls up to the dwarf. "Ok, ok, You can stop firing! I know you will hit me eventually." He drops his sack of treasure and it clatters to the ground.

• Steg (W28) yells to Edvard, "Get out of the way, you flying freak!" He then steps forward and swings his glaive up you viciously.

Glaive: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30 Hit!
Damage: 1d10 ⇒ 10

Confirm Critical: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30 Critical Hit!
Damage: 2d10 ⇒ (4, 7) = 11

Glaive: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Damage: 1d10 ⇒ 2

• Ulgarek, finally free of the bonds of the black tentacles, moves his hands in quick somatic gestures and utters a few cryptic words.

• Xemeshlar turns to Bofus and lunges at him with a series of deadly unarmed strikes.

"You would have been wise to leave us alone, halfling! If you leave now, I will not hunt you down and kill you!"

Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (4, 2) + 4 = 10

Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 5) + 4 = 15

• Tirion (unresolved)
• Mantooth (unresolved)
• Thordak (unresolved)
• Balog (unresolved)
• Steg (unresolved)
• Ulgarek (unresolved)

Round 3

Thordak flies off after the escaping woman on Lulu.

DMHW: Can Lulu pounce on/grab someone from above? Also, how often will she level up and will she gain abilities with levels?

What the heck? This morning I changed my post based upon DMHW's response and posted that I had single moved and cast Web centered 5' in front of the runner. Now it is gone. Oh well..

Round 3

Tirion flies above the monk by 15' and casts Limp Lash.

Move action: Fly to AC39

Standard: Cast Limp Lash

Attack-touch: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 7 + 1 = 25 vs Touch AC

Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4 Strength
1d6 ⇒ 2 Dexterity
1d6 ⇒ 3 Constitution

Tirion moves above the fleeing monk and calls upon the arcane. A moment later a dark whip appears in his hands which he lashes at the monk. The end of the black weapon wraps around her neck draining her physical strength (str, dex and con). It also seems to paralyze her, I do not know whether this is the first round or only when a stat goes to 1, spell is really poorly written.

I interpret it to mean "once an atribute drops below 1 the target is paralyzed." what *is* unclear is whether this creates a flank ... DMHW, can you rule on that before I go? I'd advocate for "yes" given he's creating a magical weapon, but it's not up to me, is it??

Round 4: AC 13, HP 29/50

Feeling the glaive cut into his flesh Edvard grunts, and this is followed by the all too familiar warm feeling of his blood oozing from the wound. Calling out "Mantooth, you are needed." Edvard realises that he has little chance of halting their flight... especially now that three of their group have moved off in pursuit of the supposed leader. Knowing that pain will follow, Edvard flings himself through the air sideways and over the side of the battlements - away from the warrior's weapon. He then calls upon his focus, summoning the blinding radiance that would be suffered by gazing upon the sun itself. With words he states "La lumière du soleil, pour graver votre vue" as he holds out his left fist clenched. At the climax of his phrase, he opens his hand and an explosion of golden light follows...

Fly to T,32 - provoking an AoO
Then cast Glitterdust - centered on V,28 catching the two in the burst.
DC 16 Will save or they are blind for 7 rounds, also they are covered in golden dust for 7 rounds.

Round 4

"Mantooth, you are needed."

"I'm on my way!" The paladin cries back as he climbs the stairs and approaches the black cloaked villain (at W27).

As he gets to the top of the stairs, Mantooth commands the villain to halt as he declares,"Hold it right there! Do not move! I will spare your life if you surrender right now!"

Mantooth will ready an action to strike him down should he not comply.

Magnimarana readied attack (if needed) 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (10) + 14 = 24
Damage 1d10 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Yes - that is my Round 4 action.

ROUND 4

The monk's first blow grazes Bofus' hair--only the arcane speed provided by Haste allowed the halfling to dodge the blow. He gives his adversary a raised eyebrow of respect for the near hit.

then the magical whip wraps around her neck, the black pulsing energy draining her life force while providing enough distraction to let the little thief do what he does best--fight dirty!! He aims his rapier at the juiciest bits while she struggles with the spell.

My, *that* looks dreadfully uncomfortable!!

Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20 <--oh for the love of . . .
Damage: 1d4 + 2 + 4d6 ⇒ (3) + 2 + (4, 6, 6, 4) = 25 <--dammit, look at that damage roll!!

Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19 <--you've GOT to be kidding!!!
Damage: 1d4 + 2 + 4d6 ⇒ (1) + 2 + (6, 2, 3, 2) = 16

Round 4

I think I'll change my action to have Lulu land on the one near the keep if that's alright.

Round 4

• Bofus attacks Xemeshlar, but she nimbly manages to avoid each of his stabs.
• Edvard flies to T32 and casts Glitterdust (centered at V28).

AoO from Steg @Edvard

Glaive: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Damage: 1d10 ⇒ 4

Will Saving Throws for Glitterdust

Will Save vs. DC 16 for Steg: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Will Save vs. DC 16 for Ulgarek: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

• Tirion casts Limp Lash and the whip takes hold around Xemeshlar's neck. She quickly begins losing 4 strength, 2 dexterity and 3 constitution.
• Mantooth runs to the top of the stairs and declares, "Hold it right there! Do not move! I will spare your life if you surrender right now!" as he readies an attack. However, Ulgarek raises his hands to Mantooth and declares. "I can fight no further and I do not want to die!"
• Thordak flies Lulu down from the tower and lands her beside Xemeshlar.
• Balog takes off running.

Acrobatics check DC 10 to run more than half speed: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

• Ulgarek surrenders.
• Xemeshlar attacks with a flurry of blows attempting to destroy the whip!

Flurry of Blows: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (19) + 11 = 30
Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (2, 6) + 2 = 10 5 points of damage off of the whip

Flurry of Blows: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20
Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 6) + 2 = 13 8 points of damage off of the whip

Flurry of Blows: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 3) + 2 = 10 5 points of damage off of the whip and it is destroyed and her attributes are immediately restored.

She then turns her attention to Bofus and utters to him "You will all regret crossing paths with Xemeshlar!"

Flurry of Blows: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 4) + 2 = 10

Flurry of Blows: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 4) + 2 = 10

ROUND 5

Thordak, shift over so we can take this b1tch down, will ya?? I got nowhere to move here!!

since the whip is gone, I've got no flank . .

Attack:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (3) + 15 = 18
Damage: 1d6d4 + 2 ⇒ (3, 3, 2, 3, 1) + 2 = 14

Attack:1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
Damage: 1d6d4 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

are you (&#!@(%$U#$ kidding me??? FOUR d20 rolls not even adding up to 10 together?!?!

Round 5

"Lie down on the ground or I'll run you through with my sword the way I did your companion!" Mantooth commands the black robed villain. He then calls to Edvard and exclaims, "I will never catch that burglar running along the battlement, even if he is blind and I am hasted. Can you stop him or at least slow him down?! Meanwhile, I will get my crossbow!"

Mantooth sheaths his sword and quickly pulls out his heavy crossbow. He loads it up with a bolt and winds up the small winch as he prepares to fire at the fleeing rogue.

Edvard nods at Mantooth, though does not respond with words. He turns his focus and form Northwards to follow the bandit and mulls his choices...

DMHW - does Steg appear to be running full speed or half speed?
I didn't see an Acrobatics check in your post, so I assume half-speed?

Round 5: AC 13, HP 25/50

Suffering another shallow cut Edvard mentally curses as his coat becomes ever more shredded by hostile intention. He soars Northwards on the wind chasing down his blinded foe. Drawing near he calls upon his focus and narrows his sight, seeking the strands of fate that lie o'er Steg to pluck them more to his favor...

Fly to G,32
Then cast Bungle on Steg DC 15 Will save or he suffers -20 on the next d20 roll he makes.

Thordak hops off Lulu and gets on the other side of the woman while Lulu circles around. Probably would have landed on the other side of her if that's ok DMHW

If he has time, he swings his axe at her.

Glimdraath:1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 12 + 2 = 20
Damage:1d10 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 2 = 16

Glimdraath:1d20 + 12 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 12 + 2 = 17
Damage:1d10 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 + 2 = 11

Weak...I think we can let the Balog guy get away--he's wounded and I can track him so...let's take this woman down, dicebot willing.

Seeing the monk break his whip (I might switch out this spell as most seem to thing that it can unbalance things), Tirion moves his hands in a slow motion.

Cast Slow - DC18 Will or slowed.

Round 6

Xemeshlar goes into a Flury of blows attacking both Bofus and Thordak.

Flury of Blows @Thordak: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32 Hit!
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (6, 2) + 3 = 11

Flury of Blows Confirm Critical: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27 Hit!
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 6) + 3 = 12

Flury of Blows @Bofus: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 3) + 3 = 9

Flury of Blows @Thordak: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24 Hit!
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 6) + 3 = 14

Flury of Blows @Bofus: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 6) + 3 = 12

Flury of Blows @Thordak: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20
Damage: 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (5, 5) + 3 = 13

"Why do you get involved in matters that are not your affairs?! You need to learn some discipline!"

Round 6

• Bofus swings at the monk, but she easily evades his puny attacks.
• Edvard flies to G32 and casts Bungle on Steg.

Steg's Will Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17

With blind luck, the rogue appears to resist its magic.

• Tirion casts Slow on Xemeshlar.

Xemeshlar's Will Save: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (6) + 14 = 20

• Mantooth pulls out his crossbow and loads the weapon preparing to fire.
• Thordak swings his mighty axe, Glimdraath, at Xemeshlar but the nimble monk evades those attacks as well.
• Balog (resolved)
• Steg runs into the rook and desperately begins trying to find and open the door in his blindness.
• Ulgarek drops to the ground prone as Mantooth commanded.
• Xemeshlar attacks Bofus and Thordak with a flurry of blows. Although Bofus manages to escape further injury, Thordak is landed with a critical hit on flying kick to his leg.

• Tirion (unresolved)
• Mantooth (unresolved)
• Thordak (unresolved)
• Balog (unresolved)
• Steg (unresolved)

Why do you get involved in matters that are not your affairs?! You need to learn some discipline

The resident of this keep, dearie, happens to be a personal friend of ours!! Why do *you* resort to looting?? SOOOOO gauche. Tsk tsk tsk

Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (11) + 17 = 28
Damage: 1d4 + 2 + 4d6 ⇒ (1) + 2 + (1, 1, 3, 3) = 11

Attack: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (3) + 17 = 20 <--are you effing KIDDING me?!?!
Damage: 1d4 + 2 + 4d6 ⇒ (4) + 2 + (4, 2, 1, 1) = 14

Not to be nitpicky, but how does Xemeshar get 6 attacks with max BAB? It would seem that only the first two (or 3 if she is under some type of Haste) should be at max BAB, the second two would be at BAB -5 and the last 1 or two at BAB -10.

You are correct, Tirion. This morning, I must have gone a little crazy with the cut and paste. It should have been +14/+14/+9/+9/+4. Thordak, the critical hit has accurate, but she missed her other attack. You should only take 23 points of damage and not 37 points.

Round 6

Mantooth fires a bolt from his heavy crossbow at Steg.

Crossbow 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Damage 1d10 ⇒ 7

He then proceeds to reload the crossbow by placing another bolt in it and cranking up the small winch.

"How did Thordak ever learn to fire one of these contraptions?!"

Round 6: AC 13, HP 25/50

Noticing both the failure of his art as well as Mantooth's less than accurate quarrel, Edvard takes stock of the situation. Running low on applications of his focus that would actually cause harm - he tries a different tack. Floating closer he fills his voice with the darkness that he called on for the tentacles from the otherworld and both taunts and threatens the fleeing thief "The only one who cares if you live grows distant, and will fade from view if you continue to run. Freed from his gaze, I will kill you... slowly and with suffering that you cannot ken before you pass. If you value your life, you will stop running and slink back to the safety that he offers... for I would give you no mercy!"

Fly to J,29
Intimidate: 1d20 ⇒ 20 though hopefully with some circumstance bonuses? - from blinding, binding and blasting?

Seeing the monk easily resist his more powerful magic. Tirion changes tactics to spells that cannot be resisted.

Tirion reaches into his pouch and takes out his small rod with a grasping hand on top.

Cast Spectral Hand using the Rod of Reach. This should give it a range of 680'.

Also increases the casting time to 1 round.

Round 6

Thordak takes his axe and the full round to deliver more attacks against bad baldy!

Glimdraath 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23
Damage 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Glimdraath 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20
Damage 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Glimdraath 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
Damage 1d10 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Xemeshlar decides she does not like the odds building up against her and chooses to withdraw. She flees to AP55.

"You scum may have won today, but you will get your justice when the assassins come out!"

Round 6

• Bofus attacks Xemeshlar and lands a solid hit!
• Edvard flies to J29 and uses his presence to Intimidate Steg. The rogue becomes visibly shaken. To change his attitude require up to a minute of conversation. It is just a matter of time before you break him.
• Tirion casts Spectral Hand on Xemeshlar. A ghostly hand appears ready to strike her.

Temporary Damage to Tirion: 1d4 ⇒ 3

• Mantooth fires his crossbow at Steg, but badly misses. He then begins to reload.
• Thordak grazes the monk with one of his attacks.
• Balog (resolved)
• Steg who is panicked, desperately tries to escape by opening the door to the rook. He blindly enters the tower. Edvard, you are permitted an Attack of Opportunity.
• Ulgarek remains quiet and prone on the ground.
• Xemeshlar withdraws and flees east. Thordak you are granted one attack of opportunity against her as she leaves one of your threatened squares other than the one she originally departed from.

ROUND 7

Holy crap, this person has a move of 90?!?!

Bofus is visibly shocked at this foe's speed--this defies all reason!!! But she clearly cannot be allowed to simply escape. And for now, at least, Bofus can fly . . .

Thordak, I'm going ot pursue, you too?

Bofus will fly just along the rooftops, trying to keep out of sight of this crazy foe.

speed is 60'; Id on't know if Haste affects Fly speed, I'll let you decide. My goal is to keep parallel pace until she slows down, then close and maybe stab.

Stealth: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (15) + 25 = 40

Round 7

AOO
Glimdraath:1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 36
Damage:1d10 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 2 = 13

Critical:1d20 + 12 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 12 + 2 + 2 = 17 pffffffffff
Damage:2d10 + 14 + 4 ⇒ (3, 1) + 14 + 4 = 22

Thordak takes another swing at the woman as she turns to run.
Ye never turn yer back to a Dwarf with an' axe, lady!

And then he vaults onto Lulu and rides after the monk with his axe raised!

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

I fly to AL54 - I think that is 90'. Not sure if I can fly above the buildings which would allow me to get closer.

Fly: 1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 8 + 4 = 17 <-- vs DC15 for 90 degree turn I think.

I then cast Shocking Grasp using the Spectral Hand.

Attack-ranged touch: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 1 = 24
Damage: 5d6 + 1 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 5, 1) + 1 = 14 <-- never quite figured how Point Blank Shot works with spells.

I can keep doing this all day m'lady. Surrender might be wiser than death.

pbs wouldn't count with spectral hand--it delivers touch spells, it's not a ranged spell

True - but I just realized that I get +2 from the Spectral Hand spell. So my prior attack should be 25, not 24.

Round 7

Mantooth declares to the robed villain, "You will remain here and not move! My friends are near, and if they should find you trying to escape, then they will not show you any mercy. If you follow my commands, you may yet live!"

Mantooth then runs along the battlement toward Edvard and the villain, Steg, as fast as he can.

Yeah - but in a minute he'll be 10 in combat actions later, not blinded, and many other potential things. Kind of hard to influence him if he keeps running, etc.
Waste of a 20 unfortunately, but thems the breaks.

AoO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Edvard takes a swing at the departing thief before hearing Mantooth's distant words. He pauses to allow the Paladin to catch up and also to determine if the one he leaves behind coplies with the request.

Delaying

Round 7

Xemeshlar sees the black gnome fly after her and when he lands to cast his spell, she races back (to AM54) and attacks the sorcerer.

"I see you do not follow directions very well! I suppose it is time to teach you a lesson!"

Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33 HIT!
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 5) + 4 = 15

Unarmed Strike Confirm Critical: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25 Critical
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 4) + 4 = 13

Unarmed Strike: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (1, 4) + 4 = 9

Round 7

• Bofus flys off over the roof tops trying to close in on Xemeshlar again. By cutting diagonally over the roof tops for a double move, the thief is able to take a position on the roof of a building (AT51).
• Edvard swings at Steg, but he manages to defend himself from taking too much damage. Edvard then delays.
• Tirion flies to AL54 and then casts Shocking Grasp on Xemeshlar burning her with an electrical charge.
• Mantooth runs along the battlements to N27.
• Thordak hops on Lulu and takes over over the roof top trying to catch the bald monk.
• Balog (resolved unseen)
• Steg (resolved unseen)
• Edvard (unresolved)
• Ulgarek pokes his head up to see if the area is clear, but at the sight of Edvard, he puts his head back down.
• Xemeshlar moves to AM54 and attacks Tirion delivering a deadly critical hit to the gnome!

Unless she can attack me 20 feet in the air, I do not think that the monk can hit me. I never landed and am staying well out of a height that I think she can jump to.

ROUND 8

Bofus flies to the ground, then closes (to AO 53) as quietly as he can, preparing to surprise her with a poke or two.

Stealth: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (11) + 25 = 36

Tirion, Sorry, I did not realize that you were up so high up.

Acrobatics Check for High Jump: 1d20 + 47 ⇒ (16) + 47 = 63

Xemeshlar takes a running leap to attack you, gaining about 15 feet in height. With her size, she is clearly able to deliver her critical blow! She calls it a high chop!

Tirion laughs. Nice, but can you jump this high?

Tirion proceeds to fly directly up another 30'. - I am not at 50'.

Cast Shocking Grasp: 1d20 + 6 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 6 + 2 + 1 = 26
Damage: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 2, 1) = 8 <-- about the crappiest damage roll in history.

Round 8

Mantooth runs up to the rook and opens the door, ready to attack Steg.

Ulgarek should still be blinded till Round 11, and Mantooth shouldn't need to open the door - as Steg never closed it behind him.

Round 8: 36/50 HP, AC 13

Noting that the fallen one is potentially stirring, Edvard flies back towards him to stand vigil. As he departs he tells Mantooth "His sight will be lacking for but a short time longer. Ware when it returns." As he moves back to where Ulgarek fell - Edvard draws salt from one of his pouches and smears it into his wound. As the flesh sears with pain, it also closes over - leaving but an angry scar in it's wake.

Move to V,28 - use Healing Hex on self for 2d8 + 7 ⇒ (1, 3) + 7 = 11
