Oso points at the hanging and dismembered prisoner, "Sir we save."

Then he deliberately points towards the hall, "the lizardman Sakatha in the next hall you stake but good."

Oso nods back, "After Baal we gonna get you fixed up an home again. Sir."

He pats him lightly on the cheek and turns back to the others. "Dis is gettin' personal now. Gittik stake him good and proper. I gonna spell you up with Kelanen's strength and protections just so he'll be easy."

The black priest smiles at Pip. "Let's do some good."

"So, you want me stake this guy, or save him?"

...cold....hearted...(lol)

I'm telling Larken.

home...errands...drive...time...away for a few hours.

Pip smiles back at Oso

"You got it bro! Good is our business and business is ....

Oh nevermind."

Goes to assist Oso

Beldan stares in horror at the stumps where the guy’s feet used to be. “Oh sweet Pelor,” he whispers to Altai and Oso. “That’s horrible. Is there anything we can do for him? I couldn’t live a cripple…

He turns to the prisoner, a weak grin plastered over his face. “Istivin?” he says, “That sounds like a nice place.” (Beldan never traveled much). “We’ll see that you get back there after this is all done … maybe we can hire a cart or something … Um, do you want me to try to get you out of those shackles?” He approaches nervously, as if having no feet and oft-broken bones might be contagious. Open Locks: 8+18 = 26.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

You can unchain him pretty easily. Just the neck shackle.

"Thankyou...friend...but, I'm more a prisoner of my body than the shackle, I trow....
Istivin....well, it's home..." he laughs a little.
"Messy as it is, it's home."


Male Wild Elf Druid 16 (Shifter version, PHBII)

Elgan is struck speechless at the sight of what has been done to the prisoner. (Never thought THAT would happen, didja?)

When he finally speaks, his voice is as cold as a breeze from a glacier, and his eyes have turned the color of steel.

"An heah ah t'ought dat only humans hunted fer sport. Dis is,... Le's fin' him. Ah gots a few wurds fer im."


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

"What's going on with the lizardman?" Altai keeps his distance from the mutilated man, still worried about the prospect of shapechanging monsters - his previous experience with disguised wererats having left him suspicious of random cripples.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

He's mincing something....now sprinkling it into a jar of some kind of liquid. Now it's smoking...
Now he's heating it...


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

"Does he do a lot of this?", Altai asksthe cut-up knight.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

"He's dominated...by them. That's all he does. They distribute his potions to their wicked allies."

"The vampire gets staked. This guy gets saved." Altai stops for a second. "After you stake the vampire, of course. That takes precedence."

"Stake, then save. Me got it."

I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

How you guys rolling on this?


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

"So, do you know what it looks like behind the door?"


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

"The stairs...spiral down to a vast chamber; high-ceilinged, and circular,.....100 feet by 100 feet.
He does not sleep in a coffin like a human vampire would; he has a hide and wickerwork sort of platform, staked high up, ten feet up, by four posts, after the manner of the lizardfolk's burial, near the north of the room...the floor is wet, muddy; though not too too deep. Though it is knotted with roots throughout. It is not good footing there."


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

"Excellent. Thank you very much - you've been of great help. We'll take care of you once we've finished up the vampire."

This is when I cast Protection from evil on Stig and Gittik. It lasts for 7 minutes. Before we descend, I'll cast Fly and See invisible on myself. Then I'll cast Enlarge person on Stig once we reach the bottom. After that, who knows...

BTW, Heathy - did you use my Fireball in the hag fight?


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

Yeah; I did.
I put what I used, as well as Altai's exp increase, on the "Altai-or is it?" avatar's profile.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

aaah, crappers...we're about to go out to eat, but I should be back in 2-3 hours; I can put up a map coordinate dealy in a few.
I just got Pagan Publishing's new Mesoamerica book for Call of C'thulhu, so my mind's been elsewhen for the afternoon...
I figured it would have some useful tidbits for the Isle of Dread.


Bard 8/ Troubadour of Stars 9 Epic Shredder

Just checking in. I'm pretty much all outta miracles, so I'll hang back and pop my inspire courage when the time is ripe.


Barbarian (berserker) 3; Init +1; AC18; Hp 36/41; Saves Str +5, Con +7; Passive Perception 9

Oso calls on Kelanen from the top of the stairs to give his strength and power to the kukri-wielding halfling.

Casts Bulls Strength and just for fun, fly on Gittik. Casts magic weapon on the silver stake. Casts magic circle vs evil on himself.

"Gittik, you got the juice, now take that torturing newtlicker down!"

And everyone can have divine protection, +1 morale bonus to AC and saves


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

Does anyone else want an Enlarge person? Gittik doesn't benefit much, but Oso could probably use reach and a bigger damage die.


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

So... Here's our spell suite as we descend the stairs:

Gittik: Bull's strength, Fly, Protection from evil, carries the vampire-killing stick (a Silver shortspear +1)
Stig: Protection from evil
Oso: Magic circle against evil
Altai: Fly, See invisible
Elgan: Barkskin, Call lightning
Riese: Mage armour
Pip, Beldan: nothin'

More spells once we reach the floor!


Barbarian (berserker) 3; Init +1; AC18; Hp 36/41; Saves Str +5, Con +7; Passive Perception 9

Yep on the enlarge for Oso, and everyone gets the divine protection. Plus perhaps Pip and Beldan should stay inside Oso's magic circle?


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

The stairway winds down...down...again,
and enters a great room like the maimed paladin said.

dimensions....a-t top, 1-19 bottom;
usable spaces...
g-n 1,
e-p 2,
c-r 3,
a-t 4-16,
c-r 17,
e-p 18,
g-n 19,
the hallway opens into the room at m19 south wall.

there is a trellis at i-k 2-3, stretched skins and wickerwork on four posts, 10 feet in the air, and a lizardman vampire lies as if in repose thereupon. It is lit by two bull skulls at the foot and the head of it; lit by an eerie red light. Much of the room is dark.
At j6 stands a lone succubus, holding two leashes to two canoloth daemons at i and k 7.

spot r5

Spoiler:
under the trellis of the lizard king's funerary stand, there's a good dozen or so humanoid(?) corpses lieing about...

[spoiler]you don't see anything interesting. Am I just doing this to make you paranoid?

Spoiler:
there's a gargoyle at c3, 30 feet up on the wall

initiative...

beat a 20.
take positions within 10 feet of the door to start.


Male Human Rogue 14

Spot: 18+1 = 19.
Group Initiative roll: 18

“Gargoyles!” blurts out Beldan, pointing up the walls.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

Right on....
positions(?)


Male Human Rogue 14

Beldan wants to stay close to Oso to take advantage of the magic circle. Say N19 to start.

"HUH?"

Pip will stick by his magical buddy Oso and begin strumming Inspire Courage. Everyone gets a +1 to all ATK&DAM rolls for 5 rounds.

Strums Lucille

Don't know what we're fighting,
But I know one thing for sure!
Evil is a bad disease,
And the Regulators are the cure!


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

Is it OK if I cast my two Enlarge person spells before we stepped through the door?


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

Hell yeah.


Barbarian (berserker) 3; Init +1; AC18; Hp 36/41; Saves Str +5, Con +7; Passive Perception 9

Oso squeezes through the narrow door trying to take in all the threats and dangers.

Oso at O/P-17/18 and Pip next to him at N18.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

Any in the room....can notice that the ground is heavily rooted, muddy and gnarly...difficult terrain; two squares of movement per one square moved (i.e. half speed) and no running.


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

New and improved list of ongoing effects:

Gittik: Bull's strength, Fly, Protection from evil, carries the vampire-killing stick (a Silver shortspear +1)
Stig: Enlarge person, Protection from evil
Oso: Enlarge person, Magic circle against evil
Altai: Fly, See invisible
Elgan: Barkskin, Call lightning
Riese: Mage armour
Pip, Beldan: nothin'

Also, we have bardic music and divine protection, giving everybody +1 morale bonus to AC, saves, attack rolls and damage.

REcapping the effects of Enlarge person: +2 STR, -2 DEX and the target becomes Large, taking up a 10' square. The STR bonus offsets the size modifier on the attack rolls, so the net effect is +1 damage, 10' reach and -2 AC. New weapon damage is 2d8. Splat!


Male Human Wizard 17 (Conjuration specialist)

I'll start at M17, 15' into the air.

Hovering well above the soggy floor, Altai's casting a spell as Beldan catches his attention. "Gargoyles? Where?"

I'm burning my Charm monster spell to cast Summon monster IV. Amazingly, I missed every spot roll, even the DC 5 one...


<Super sized Stig steps in. Cue Holst's Planets.>

Under Altai somewhere.

Mars, bringer of war! For an even more intense version, check out the Nile version - Ramses, bringer of war. It makes for an awesome intro, though you might want to tune out once Karl Sanders starts howling at 1:30 or so...

“There, and there,” Beldan points up at the walls at C3 and R3. “And did you notice that pile of corpses under the platform in the middle there?”

How Beldan noticed all this when he’s got a succubus’ boobies to look at is anyone’s guess.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

Reckon Stiggy's at L-M 17-18.


Perception: 1d20+5=9

"Huh? That's aw Ah see. Where's th' vampire?"


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

He's lieing there on the trellis at j2. He's resting.


j/k


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

He sits up and hisses. Just at you, Stiggy. He blames you for all his troubles in life.
;)


Male Human Rogue 14

”Quick guys! Ranged attacks on him while we’ve got line of sight!” ;-P


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

You get -10 to hide now. j/k.

They, like, keep polymorphing, too. They're running a gamut.


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

oh; and boobies reminded me of something: soon as Gittik and Riese call positions; somebody might want to call one for Elgan cos he said it's Mardi Gras season and he's busy...


I AM THE LORD OF ALL HELLFIRE!!!!!

...looking at boobies, drinking cocktails on the street, and listening to jazz?
