OOC:

Brownyn: I think your CMD should be 14 and not 13 but Lucina succeeds in taking the sword from you.

---------------
IC:

The sword's wail reverberated inside the temple, "Do not succumb to her ways, Lady of Karrnath. Only you know what to do!"


Female Human Fire Adept Wizard/5 | HP 32 | Init +2 | AC12 | Mage armor AC15 |

So I'm assuming that Bronwyn didn't get the sword into the haversack before Lucina took it and put it in her own backpack...

Bronwyn's voice turned cold but her eyes burned like coals. "So this is what we're doing now? Stealing from friends and disrespecting them?" Arcane words came next and Lucina's backpack burst into flames.

Casting Burning Gaze on Lucina's backpack. It says unattended objects don't get a save but of course the GM makes the call on what happens...


Current Face: Mei'Vi, elven explorer AC 15 | HP45/45 | Saving Throws: Dex, Int | Init +3 | Perc +8 | Invis ring charges left 1/3 | Inspiration 1/1

Where the heck are our warforged during all this! Come on, boys, speak up!

"Bronwyn!" Vi ran to Lucina's side, helping her swat out the flames. Bad wizard! Friends do not set friend's bags on fire!" Turning to the 'forged, she pleaded, "Will you two snap out of it and please do something to help!"


Female Human Fire Adept Wizard/5 | HP 32 | Init +2 | AC12 | Mage armor AC15 |

Bronwyn's voice remained cold. "Friends also don't disrespect each other by stealing items. Friend or not, the lesson needs to be learned that if you disrespect a Lady that there are consequences."

With that, the wizard's eyes flared again and the flames engulfing the backpack flared again.

What kind of lighting is in the room? Torches? Inquiring minds want to know :)

A bit of a moral dilemma here... the order to leave Bronwyn alone and scoot back to Sharn can be ignored easily enough, as the 'forged already have orders to protect Bronwyn. But taking the sword from her, if she does not want to give it up voluntarily...


Warforged Cleric 6 | AC 21/23 | HP 51 | HD 5/5 |1st 4/4, 2nd 3/3, 3rd 3/3
Bronwyn d'Deneith wrote:
She looked at the 'forged, "I order you to accompany Vi and Lucina back to Sharn and make sure they get there safely. Once I am settled in Karrnath with Gaby, I will send word. But my uncle has waited too long for justice and I won't allow him to wait any longer. After what happened to my aunt, Gaby's life may depend on it."

"Regretfully. Lady d'Deneith, that we will not do," Palisade announced. "We have orders to defend you. We cannot do that from half the continent away. Conflicting orders must and will be ignored." The 'forged was torn. Lady d'Deneith did seem to act in a manner most unliker her, but it was per right to do as she willed. Palisade's blessing to fortify her will had had no effect, thus making the possibility that she was agreeing to the sword's suggestions on her own more likely. Yet it knew the spell was no flawless, a mere strengthening of the will, not an absolute barrier against outside influences.

So it sood, silent, feeling ever more uncomfortable and torn as companions Vi Olaro and Lucina Mindragus argued, reasoned and in the end, used force to remove the sword from Lady d'Deneith's possession.

This last was one step too far, however, coming all too close to laying hands on the Lady's person against her will. Palisade roused itself, drawing its still-blessed greatsword as it turned to face Lucina.

"Companion Lucina Mindragus, your aggression has been noted. This one urges you to seek a peaceful solution to the problem or it will have to take steps to protect Lady d'Deneith."


Female Human Druid (Menhir Savant) 6 | HP 42 | Init +2 | AC: 24/22F/13T | Fort +6, Ref +4, Will +9 | Perc. +14, SM +14 |

Lucina cursed loudly as she tried to put out the flames on her bag...and then again. Ultimately, she just took the sword out and held it in her left hand. She's already so far gone! However, her worst fear came true when Palisade jumped to Bronwyn's defense.

Angrily, she stared down the warforged. "MY aggression? I am taking a dangerous artifact away from her. She's trying to set me on fire." She held up her singed bag as proof, causing a few things to fall out through a burned hole. "How is Vi the only one seeing reason right now?!? I am protecting Bronwyn! From this damn sword! Risking my damn hide to do it too, apparently! Just like I protected her when Lucan was wielding it! I shouldn't even have to justify this to you! Your mission is to protect her, isn't!?! You think she is going to be safe with this thing when she is already doing whatever it wants!?!"

Fyi. I'm going to be going on vacation in a couple days (Sunday) with no internet, so if this doesn't wrap up soon, Vi, Palisade or Squeak are getting tossed this sword like a hot potato... :p

"She's trying to set me on fire."

Bronwyn scoffed at Lucina's complaint. "If I wanted to set you on fire, you'd be on fire. And if you hadn't taken Soul Blade, your backpack would still be intact. You only have yourself to blame. Now quit acting like a child who is tattling to their parent about a sibling. Give me the sword and I'll be on my way."

"Not gonna happen," Vi said, stepping between the two women. "Lucina, let's get going. Hopefully being separated from the blade will calm her down. Squeak, Palisade, you stop her from following us. You don't have to lay hands on her if you don't want to, just stand in her way. If you have any of that firebelly left, Squeak, you might need it."

With that, she edged around the forged, trying to get them between Bronwyn and the sword.

Hoping to get Lucina and Vi a head start, so that B will calm down.

"Explanation. Your efforts to risk your own safety to protect Lady d'Deneith are commendable, but there are limits to acceptable behaviour," Palisade declared. "She has claimed the blade as her own. However ill-adviced that choice may be, it is for her to make. Trying to reason with her is wise. Resorting to physical resistance by means of seizing the blade is not, and carries the risk of dismemberment," the 'forged continuing, the greatsword in its hands raised lightly as if to highlight a point.

"Attacking a companion for such an action, on the other hand, is highly unlike you, Lady d'Deneith," Palisade went on, turning to subject Bronwyn to its steady regard. "This one believes she just recently healed the wounds you had sustained during the battle. To repay that with an escalation of violence is most unlike you. This one urges you to remember your own earlier thoughts. The blade might have been the reason for your deceased relative's black reputation. Do not your current actions after claiming the blade support your own hypothesis?"

Squeak stood frozen as friend fought with friend. The requirement to obey orders was enforced on Warforged from the moment of their creation. 'But who' reflected the dazed forged 'has the right to issue orders? Bronwyn is potentially under the control of the sword.'

"Clarification." Squeak's tension could be read in his reversion to military speech patterns "Tensions come from uncertainty as to whether Bronwyn or Sword is making the decisions."
"Suggestion. We bury the sword. We move away - together - and wait twenty four hours. If at the end of that time Bronwyn still desires to break her word and go to Karnath then we agree that is her genuine goal and look into ways to make that happen. If not then we assume the sword cannot control all of us and agree to abide by majority decision in all things."


Female Human Druid (Menhir Savant) 6 | HP 42 | Init +2 | AC: 24/22F/13T | Fort +6, Ref +4, Will +9 | Perc. +14, SM +14 |

Lucina began backing away slowly at Vi's suggestion, relieved that at least one person was standing beside her. She was prepared to argue again with Palisade, that trying to make Bronwyn see reason while she was being controlled was pointless. However, Squeak's suggestion made her hesitate. To Vi, she muttered, "There's no guarantee that time will free her...but it might be worth trying...before things get out of hand." To the warforged, she insists, "We would have to watch her constantly though...or she'll steal it and run off alone. I'm pretty sure none of us want that...andI promise you she'll do it if she can..."

You had asked that before, sorry. :(

The place is lit by continual flame spells (heatless flames that consume no oxygen) laced in braziers mounted on the walls.

There are as many and as close as 'you need them to be'. :)

"Hypothesis. Lady d'Deneith would not break her sworn word to her companions. Bronwyn would not betray the friends who have fought beside her. If she tried to run off it would be an indication that the sword was controlling her and desperate to make her do something before the effect that granted control wore off." Squeak argued.

"Declaration. Humans are strange, illogical creatures," Palisade countered. "This one reminds you to think back to the War, and how many times the officers in charge of tactics or strategy changes their minds. At times, new intelligence obtained could be contributed to have caused the about-face in approach to an engagement or disposition of troops, but this one could name several occasions where there seemed to be no reason for the sudden alterations. Speculatively. Lady d'Deneith is human. She possessed free will, so she might have prioritized the possession of a powerful magical artifact over the currently available allies. In effect, changed her mind. Mental compulsion does not necessarily have to be occurring to result in the current situation."

"But your suggestion does seem logical. A simple, quick experiment to remove a variable from the equation and see if that alters the end result. Impressed. This one is ever surprised by the depth of your wisdom, unit Squeak."


Current Face: Mei'Vi, elven explorer AC 15 | HP45/45 | Saving Throws: Dex, Int | Init +3 | Perc +8 | Invis ring charges left 1/3 | Inspiration 1/1

Vi was shocked that the 'forged couldn't see what was right in front of their faces. "Look, I know you guys are new to this whole emotion thing, but this isn't a case of Bronwyn "changing her mind". She has changed her personality. That isn't normal. That is the sword."

Sighing and shifting her weight back and forth, she thought about it and said, "But I accept your proposal. If you want to sort this out with science, fine. But by Dolurrh, I hope you're on board with helping me and Lucina get her to Sharn if...when we're proved right."

Ok, fine, let's bury this sucker.


Female Human Druid (Menhir Savant) 6 | HP 42 | Init +2 | AC: 24/22F/13T | Fort +6, Ref +4, Will +9 | Perc. +14, SM +14 |

Lucina nodded with a sigh, "Let's just start digging..."

...Then she became mysteriously quiet.


Female Human Fire Adept Wizard/5 | HP 32 | Init +2 | AC12 | Mage armor AC15 |

Bronwyn couldn't abide the sword being buried. "Burying the sword makes no sense."

The fire elementalist began calling the fire within the chamber to swirl around herself. She walked towards where the sword was being held hostage. As she advanced, fire from each brazier was sucked towards her and flamed around her. "Now, I will be taking Soul Blade and we will be leaving."

Using Fire Supremacy for the light show essentially but Vi and Lucina wouldn't necessarily know that the fire won't burn them.

On a side note, someone knock her out already :)

It's not an illusion. She really is pulling the fire around her. But Fabian said the braziers are lit by continual flame that gives no heat.

That's why I said "effectively". Flame that gives no heat is pretty much just light.

'Consequences disastrous no matter what. Any action against Objective risk that Objective becomes hostile to guardians. No action risks the loss of Objective. I think they're right, though... I don't think that IS Bronwyn.' Squeak took a deep breath, and a stand. "Statement. Bronwyn has been stolen by the sword. She must be secured. I will secure her. Palisade, ensure the others do not attempt to take the sword or injure Bronwyn."
If Squeak had a heart it would have been in his throat as he walked up to Bronwyn and attempted to seize her.

Action 1:

If Bronwyn's underclothes were twisted in any manner, everyone would have seen with the amount of kicking and writhing she was doing in her dress. "Put me down! You have no right to treat me this way. I AM a Lady and you DO NOT put hands on a Lady!"

Action 2:

Bronwyn looked at Squeak before calmly asking, "Um, Squeak? Why are you carrying me? I'm not hurt, am I? I don't feel hurt. And why are we outside?"


Male Warforged Artificer (Alchemist) 5. AC 21. HP 43/43. HD 5/5, 1st 4/4. 2nd 2/2.

Action 1:
"If you are lady Bronwyn I apologise." Squeak quavered - torn between remorse and determination. 'I have to keep Palisade out of this. If Objective refuses to have anything to do with me...' the concept was incredibly difficult to work past '...she needs at least one guard who can be trusted.'

Action 2:
Squeak slumped, like a puppet with cut strings, but refused to let go. "You were... kidnapped, La... Ob... Bronwyn. The sword... did something to you. It was trying to steal you. I was forced to secure your body."

Squeak looked to the others "How can we be sure this is not an act? How can we know if I release Bronwyn she will not run into the jungle, potentially to be devoured by monsters?"

Later
"The sword seems to have trouble controlling more than one person at a time. We should keep it secured, ensure no-one is alone with it, no-one is alone, and require that all decisions are by majority vote until we hand over the sword." Squeak looked meaningfully at the others "Any deviation from a majority decision must be treated as an attempt by the sword to steal someone."

I say we take the sword back as directly as possible- I don't trust Luca's sister. The Silver Sword should be returned, but I would think a diplomatic courier is the way to do it. What happened to Luca?


Warforged Cleric 6 | AC 21/23 | HP 51 | HD 5/5 |1st 4/4, 2nd 3/3, 3rd 3/3

Returned, sure, since we agreed to it. But I wouldn't go out of our way to do that... could just drop it off at an embassy in Sharn with our thanks and let them worry about returning it to its original owner.

Palisade had been rather hesitant about unit Squeak's shockingly direct approach to the problem, but there was no questioning of its trust in its old squadmate. Thus, it had followed along, hiding its concern for Lady d'Deneith's safety behind its featureless faceplate. And thankfully, the Lady did seem to come to her senses after being separated from the sword for a certain amount of time.

"This one wonders if delivering the blade encased in a block of solid iron would fulfill the terms of our contract; that would prevent further missuse of the blade, and would be easy to arrange, at the first decently sized village we come across with a blacksmith's workshop," Palisade suggested.

Vi breathed a sigh of relief when Bronwyn finally came to her senses. "By the twelve, it's good to hear reason coming from you again. Do you promise not to torch our stuff any more?" The changeling pointed to Lucina's pack, which was barely holding together.

Vi considered it, then said, "Safer, but I think that might be the same as breaking it. We wouldn't be able to defend B's uncle, or even Lucan, for that matter." She patted the grisly package handing from her pack - Lucan's head.

I'm happy to cut scene, then end up back in Sharn, reminiscing about the airship rescue and the long ride back through the woods. I think we can trust the airship captain to bring the sword back. Or we can keep it; might come in handy against those pesky undead who keep attacking us. We do have at least one other vampire enemy, after all.

Vi suddenly found herself filled with rage. Ice was in her hand before she realized it, and it was only with a great effort of will that she sheathed the dagger. "I. Am not. Mistaken." she said, biting off each word as if it were poison in her mouth. "You let that sword get to you, and you nearly burned Lucina and I trying to get it back from us." She forced another deep breath, then continued. "Look, I get it. The sword got to me during the fight. And I'm sorry that I wasn't more helpful. But at least I can admit it. But you....you're a wizard of FIRE! Do you really think that we would be "mistaken" about how Lucina's backpack got burned to a cinder? Do you think we walked to close to a torch when we weren't looking? At least have the courage to admit that we're telling the truth, and the grace to apologize!"

A moment later and she was stomping off towards the crash site. "I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm ready to go home to Sharn. NOW."


Female Human Fire Adept Wizard/5 | HP 32 | Init +2 | AC12 | Mage armor AC15 |

Bronwyn stiffened at Vi's tirade. "So you're saying that I should apologize for something I don't remember doing? You may be telling the truth, but so am I."

The wizard couldn't help but add as Vi stormed off, "I don't see any burn marks on you or Lucina. I've never met anyone who was so attached to someone else's backpack."

Action 1
"Solid iron, perhaps. Clay, however, should be easy enough for us to break, and might attenuate or muffle the voice." Squeak suggested. "Further, keeping it in an extra-dimensional space as much as possible should be worth the risk."

Action 2
Squeak used the time to brew several batches of his silver-sparkle-glue concoction. He also appointed himself as head chef. Soon he had set up an impromptu kitchen doing the best with whatever supplies the shipwrecked castaways could find.
cooking: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (1) + 20 = 21
In his copious free time he salvaged pieces of the ship and outfitted them to his own corpus. Bereft of elemental energy the ship's parts were simply lightweight wood and metal, but Squeak had a plan; to alchemically power one of the lifting engines. His initial test flight bore mixed results, but once he was excavated he at once set to building control structures in the form of beautifully articulated admantine wings.
his Amulet of Mighty Fists doesn't seem to be on the log.
Headband of Ponderous Recollection (5100) would be interesting if it were made from the salvaged 'brains' of other Warforged. Might be a bit close to John.
Boots of striding and springing make sense - to help him keep up. (5500), but only if Palisade can do 30' armoured.
Vouchsafing armour is an interesting idea (+4000) - would make him very hard to destroy if downed. Sort of feel like it'll probably never come up though.
Circlet of Persuasion is something I can see him picking up IC (4500) though if we went that way I would also ask if I can retrain his 1st level discovery to Pheremones (and work on picking that up somewhere in the next level). The idea of a social monster Warforged "cheating" his way to social acceptance through study and magic appeals to me; not sure how combat useful this would be.

"Pleased. A block of baked clay sounds like a good compromise. Suggestion. Perhaps adding a few decorative patterns on the surface would allow us to pass the item as a curious piece of art - one with a minor enchantment cast at it to engage the viewer with audio cues. Thus diverting attention away from us carrying an obviously valuable sentient blade," Palisade said, nodding to Squeak.

Palisade doesn't require much in the way of downtime...I'll either write a post about it continuing its preaching, or perhaps now it's time for it to get to debate religion at one of the major temples, demanding recognition to its faith.

As to magic items... was the wealth limit 16000 G now? If so, that'd mean 7300 for Palisade to play with... I think +2 Str item would be the best purchase. After that... perhaps a +1 enchantment for its Greatsword, to have another enchanted option available. Add a Cloak of Resistance +1 to that and Palisade's wealth would be on the level.

Vi: I need you to update your PC to level 6th; everyone else is done.

Looking at WBL now...


Female Human Fire Adept Wizard/5 | HP 32 | Init +2 | AC12 | Mage armor AC15 |

Action 1:

Bronwyn wrinkled her nose as Vi motioned at Lucan's head. "We should definitely keep both the sword and Lucan's head well hidden. Both of them should be put in the haversack and not removed for any reason until we get back to Sharn. This will be especially important when we rejoin the others at the crash site."

Action 2:

Bronwyn had never been so glad to see an airship in her life. Two days at the crash site had been two days too many. Not only were there bugs but her hair had doubled in size - and not in a good way. If it hadn't been for Squeak's cooking, she would have been truly miserable.

During one of their meals she leaned over to Lucina and said, "I'll replace your backpack once we're back in Sharn.

The wizard's eyes sparkled as the captain recounted her fireball attacks during the pirate attack. Before leaving to travel back to Sharn, she made sure that she thanked the half-elf captain for everything. With a smile and a curtsy she said, [b]"I hope our paths cross again in the future."

Action 3:

Bronwyn breathed a sigh of relief as the City of Towers came into view. "I know we're all tired and would love nothing more than to make our way home but I know I would feel much better handing over the sword sooner than later. I don't think any of us will rest properly until Soul Blade is out of our hands."

Party Loot Split - 6th level

OK, I've posted the link to the current wealth so make sure everything is correct. it's either there or you don't have it.

Here's the 'available' wealth per PC for upgrades or acquiring new stuff:

Brownyn: 10,000 gp;
Lucina: 11,500 gp;
Palisade: 7,000 gp;
Squeak: 9,500 gp; and
Vi: 5,500 gp.

Let me know how you want to spend it (or save it for later).

Questions?

Game on!
