Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Ralph shudders as the elemental ray hits him, a rib falls out of place and skitters across the floor. A heartbeat later, the entire skeleton simply collapses into a pile of inanimate bones, sending a plume of dust up into the air above the remains.
Ralph wouldn't have been in your line of sight with the wall there, but whatever. I'm ready for this battle to be over. I really need to figure out a way to make the walls still apparent when you guys are huddled up like this...


Male Elf Fighter (Unbreakable)/2

Unable to find a clear shot now, Vannevar moves next to the wall where he can better see Silian for the time being.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Susie-Q again lunges at Bosramir.
Bite 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17
Damage 1d6 ⇒ 5
HP 7/12

Bosramir returns the undead creature's attack, knocking Susie-Q nearly senseless. As senseless as an undead dog can get, anyway.

Earthbreaker 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Damage 2d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4) + 3 = 10

Will all of you please sound off on your HP? Also, if you could start making sure that it's posted at least at the beginning and end of each battle that will make my life immensely easier. I would prefer it's posted each time there is a change to your HP status.

R4
Susie-Q (dog 2), Bosramir, Balthazar, Demise, Ralph (dog 1), Akasha, Lianna, Silian, Vannevar

lmfao thank you!

Akasha, you're up!


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Akasha moves to flank Susie-Q (J6) and swings her mace, completely smashing in the blink dogs skeletal head. The rest of the bones crumple to the floor.
Mace 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 + 2 = 21
Damage 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Battle over.

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

With a sheen of sweat and blood trickling down his leg, Silian continues to kick the bones of the fallen blink dogs a few times before turning to see his comrades. Dropping his scimitar he kneels by Balthazar, checking for a pulse.

Heal: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

"Filthy curs. We have to get the gnome back up. The foul of this place is whittling us down."


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

After a few moments, the adrenaline seeps out of your bodies. Fatigue and hunger settle in its place.

"Time is our enemy here, but we can't keep going forward right now. We should either retreat to the Rat Catchers' room or hole up here." Silian stays by the gnome, checking his breathing.


Female Human Hexcrafter Magus 3

I doubt anything else has been here in a while, this room may be as good as any. I'm damn near exhausted.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Settling into this room?


Female Human Hexcrafter Magus 3

"We should set up camp here." Akasha says


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Silian is the heal light wounds wand out of charges? Balthazar is still unconscious.

Not at all, I just forgot I had it!

Silian nods as he draws the Jorasco wand over the gnome's wounds.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

24 charges remain


Male Gnome Alchemist/1

Balthazar scowls as he wakes, looking up at Silian from where he fell. "I have no idea how those Dogs kept biting me. I'm usually a lot harder to hit."

Balthazar sits up and begins rummaging through his backpack, pulling out alchemical supplies and setting up his portable lab.

As he works he pulls out a small package of hard tack and begins munching on it.

After a few minutes he looks up from what he's doing, almost as an afterthought. "Thank you for healing me, Silian." He doesn't wait for a response but dives back into his preparations again.

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

Dusting himself off, Silian stands, ignoring his own bite wound. "Anyone else, injured? Step forward. We may as well use the halfling magic until it is spent."


Female Human Hexcrafter Magus 3

Akasha walks over to Silian, the bite on her thigh quite clear. "Vicious little bastards"

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

"Yes they are. Even more vile while they live. Fortunately it seems in death they lost their ability to teleport." Silian leans down towards the bite.

Silian runs the wand over Akasha's wound with grim determination, until he realizes where he is and grins slyly.

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

23 charges


Female Human Hexcrafter Magus 3

As the wound closes Akasha can't help grinning as she notices the shift in Silian's expression. "Enjoying the view?"

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

Silian's grin widens. "Oh but of course. It's not every day I get to examine another dragonmark so thoroughly." His eyes linger. "Sentinel," he muses, "I can certainly think of worse shields to stand behind."

"Glad you like it." the magus says with a sly smile, beginning to set up camp. "Your shadow mark definitely adds a certain...rakishness."

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

"I'm rather fond of it myself," Silian says smiling. "So what do we make of this upside-down place? Infested with the dead, with rats, and the greenskins that eat them..."

Grand Lodge

Female Elf Sorcerer(water elemental bloodline) 1

"I make it out as a place we should be in and out of as quickly as possible." Lianna replied looking around the room with a healthy dose of curiosity.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Without a closer examination, Lianna sees bones, broken tables, jars, restraints, and various other artifacts of the once laboratory/torture chamber. An upside-down staircase is in the far corner. The room is extremely cluttered and definitely not Lianna's ideal place to recuperate.

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

"I'm inclined to agree with you, but if we keep running into things like that babbling horror we will not be able to progress nearly as quick as we or surely our employer would prefer."


Female Human Hexcrafter Magus 3

"Yeah, seems like the forgotten corner of the city where all the horrible crap that shouldn't exist came to be left alone. And they don't take too kindly to visitors."Akasha mutters shaking her head.


Male Gnome Alchemist/1

Balthazar lets the conversation wash over him. "Not going anywhere till these concoctions are finished" he thinks to himself. The crumbs of his hard tack meal he brushes idly off his clothes as he works.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Let me know if/when you guys are sleeping and where at. If there is anything in specific that you want to do during this time that requires rolls, go for it.


Male Gnome Alchemist/1

After a few hours of preparing extracts and his mutagen, Balthazar will pack everything up, unroll a bedroll and look around.

"What's the watch schedule?"

He doesn't seem to notice that this is something that should have been addressed hours before when he started his brewing.

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

"Well it seems to me we have one among us that does not require sleep... so that looks like a full night's rest for me."


Demise leans against the wall and smiles wickedly at Silian as he rubs the hilt of his greatsword. "Yesss. I can watch through the night... if...you trussst me now to watch over you flesh walker'sss weak bodiesss as you sssleep."


Male Gnome Alchemist/1

Balthazar's answer is to lie down on his bedroll and fall quickly asleep.
You think you might have heard a quiet "Thanks." as he rolled over, but you can't be sure.


Female Human Hexcrafter Magus 3

Akasha gives Demise a look that while not exactly hostile, makes it clear that he is being assessed weighed and measured.

Shrugging she begins to set her bdroll up and take food out of her pack.

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

Silian chuckles as he lays out his bedroll, "Well I've already put an arrow in you so I cannot begrudge you if I wake up to find the same, though if you want company, feel free to wake me... we elves don't truly sleep as much as we remember and meditate."


Demise keeps a look out as the others rest...

Demise:
Sometime in the middle of the night, Bosramir startles awake and stands as swiftly as a dwarf can. He looks around the room panicked, shakes his head and then mumbles something to you about relieving himself before wandering off on his own. He seems to be quite addled still, from his contact with the Allip.

Silian:
As you drift off into your meditative sleep, your sensitive ears pick up on the sounds of claws clicking and scraping across stone. When you try to pull yourself back into full consciousness, you find that you are unable to do so. You hear the sounds of panting followed by a deep growl. You can almost feel the demon dogs breath tickling the back of your neck, but are utterly unable to even turn to look let alone defend yourself. You feel bile rise into your throat, you cannot hold back your panic and your rage as you fight against yourself, forcing yourself to wake up.

Your eyes snap open. There is no blink dog, the others sleep. Demise stands quietly by the door.

Balthazar:
In the deep hours of the night, you hear a woman scream for help. Startled, you jump from your pallet and gather your things quickly. You realize that no one else seems to be waking up. Perhaps they didn't hear the scream. You nudge Vannevar and find that he is dead. Blood seeps out around a slit throat, and his lifeless eyes stare off into nothingness.

Akasha:
As your mind crosses the border from wakefulness to sleep, your last thought before oblivion is that Silian wants to kill you. As the dreams take you, your mind is flooded with images of him sliding a dagger under your ribcage, an evil grin on his face as he slides your body off of his blade and watches as you crumple to the floor before sauntering away. You wake up with a gasp, bolting from your pallet you find the others still sleep. Demise stands quietly by the door and gives you an odd look.

Lianna:
You toss and turn on the cold stone floor for what seems like hours, unable to fall asleep. A strange sound catches your ears and you pause for a moment, listening. It sounds like children whispering and giggling just outside of the room. You sit up and find that Demise has abandoned his post, the others still seem to be sleeping soundly.

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

Is there an order you want actions done in?


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Nope, just spoiler it with my name. Sorry for the multiple edits, I'm fluctuating on how I want to handle this!

Shadow Lodge

Male Elf Druid 3

Silian:
The elf looks pales as he shakes his head, trying to gather his bearings. The fur of his armor seems a bit constrictive at the moment so he carefully takes the blink dog fur hide off of him. He addresses the warforged,

Whenever the DM wants you to read this

Demise:
Once his armor is removed, Silian speaks to the sentry. "Have you seen anything as we've rested? This place is... troubling."

Silian:
While the others sleep, Silian leans over to wake his uncle to see if he has experienced any horrors during his reverie.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Demise:
Silian sits up and takes off the fur hide before staring blankly at you for a moment and then at Vannevar who sleeps nearby. He mumbles something incoherent and then rolls back over and closes his eyes once more. Do not read his spoilers to you at this time. Respond, if you wish, but spoiler it with my name.

Silian:
Demise shakes his head, and says, "No, nothing."
Vannevar stirs when you jostle him and sits up, "Silian, what is it? You look unwell." Vannevar glances around the room, his eyes alert for trouble. I've asked Demise to not look at your spoilers just yet, I'll be responding for him and the others for the time being.


Male Gnome Alchemist/1

DM:
Is Demise here and conscious?


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Balthazar:
Oops! Forgot to mention Demise in your spoiler, by bad. Demise seems to have abandoned his post.


Male Gnome Alchemist/1

DM:
Balthazar whips quietly around, checking for clues and looking for the culprit.Oh f%#+ that guy. is Van the only one injured? Are there any obvious signs leading away from him? drops of blood, weapon used, etc. Is anyone else missing besides Demise?

DM:
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Balthazar:
Vannevar and Silian are both dead. Everyone else seems to be quite alive, just sound asleep. No one else is missing, aside for Demise and no one else shows any signs of being the one to have caused the deaths as far as you can tell.

You hear the woman's voice screaming for help again.


Male Gnome Alchemist/1

"Wake up f~$*ers." Balthazar's angry voice rings out in the room as he pulls his newly made mutagen out and drinks it. He nudges people with his foot as he walks by, rousing the remainder of the group. He holds an extract in one hand, and a bomb in the other.

"It's time to go hunting."
