Kirk Hetfield |
Kirk looks over at Jerax as he lops off a head. He then tries to mimic the move with his knife. Failing that, he shrugs his shoulders, then gets down on a knee and removes it the same way he has the others.
Altogether, that is 10 heads for the group. But wait, the orc warrior left several dozen Vegepygmie corpses laying about. Shouldn't we take those heads as well?
Pivenzobili |
"You can take the heads...but I get the legs!" Pivenzobili says as he is gorging on a raw leg.
Kirk inspects the corpses left by Sir Folken, they are barley recognizable as vegepygmies and covered in the brown mold. Removing the heads without exposing yourself to the mold will be a chore, but one worth doing.
Survival or Profession Butcher/Taxidermy DC 16 to remove a head safely-roll per head
Kirk Hetfield |
Kirk looks at the bodies for a minute.
Thought I burnt all that stuff off. Going to be tough to get rid of it. I think I'll pass. I don't know if I can carry much more.
Jerax Hellfire |
Looking down at the halfling, Jerax replies, "Listen. If the you can't carry anymore, I'll carry the rest." I mean, I'm already carrying two tents, what's a bag of vegepygmy heads. Ugh. Having friends are a pain in the back..and ass!
Sister Margaletta |
"You don't fight trees," Margaletta replies, somewhat lost, and spits on the ground. "That's stupid. You cut 'em down, or just burn the forest. Seems like a waste, but I'll make sure to keep some torches on hand; could make dealing with those tiny plant f***ers more fun either way."
Jerax Hellfire |
Jerax nods to Margaletta, "At least, we have a good idea of what's 'round the bend." The tiefling pulls out his battle axe, thumbing the edge. "Well. When everyone is ready, I think it's time to chop some work", chuckles Jerax.
Izrail Arvanxi |
Izrael keeps his eyes on the half orc as he leaves, visibly angry. "Yes, we better be moving when everybody is healed."
He then goes to Ileosa and Meridian "If that "knight" says the truth and we encounter treants we better have some fire, divine or otherwise on our side... can I count on you for that? Also... I don't want you to be hit by those things, take care please."
Kirk Hetfield |
Again, Kirk holds up the vial of liquid he found earlier.
Hello! Down here! Does anyone know what this is?
He waves the vial of liquid around for everyone to see.
Looking down at the halfling, Jerax replies, "Listen. If the you can't carry anymore, I'll carry the rest."
With an evil grin Kirk looks at Jerax,
Okay then, see if you can cut them heads off without getting that stuff on you. I'll bet you a gold piece you can't.Meridian Anterian |
Meridian nods to Izrail, "We will be careful. I am not sure how much fire we can bring, but I will keep a torch handy."
Ileosa Albus |
Ileosa smiled as she slowly removed Izrail's helmet. Her eyes met and held his as she said "It seems your eye have gone back to blue." jokingly of course. "Are you truly so worried about things like that my knight?"
Though Kirk drew her eyes from Izrail for a moment. "I am sorry to say that is not something I am well versed in. Maybe Alicia?" She told the halfling before her full attention went back to Izrail.
Meridian Anterian |
Again, Kirk holds up the vial of liquid he found earlier.
Hello! Down here! Does anyone know what this is?
He waves the vial of liquid around for everyone to see.
Meridian shakes her head at Kirk, "I do not know how to tell what that is."
Jerax Hellfire |
Okay then, see if you can cut them heads off without getting that stuff on you. I'll bet you a gold piece you can't.
"Oh Hell no! I'm not getting near that crap if I can help it."
Pivenzobili |
"Treants...I do not think we should try to fight them. Remember our mission is just to get a map. We get rewarded for the vegepygmies we do kill, but let's leave the large scale extermination to the gate worshiping knights. " Pivenzobili cautions as he looks down the deer trail mentioned by Sir Folken.
"Are we ready to map the last stretch?"
Meridian Anterian |
Meridian smiles at Pivenzobili, "Worry not, little agent of Hell, we will not confuse our mission for theirs. We must survive, after all, to complete our mission, must we not?"
Jerax Hellfire |
"Worry not, little agent of Hell, we will not confuse our mission for theirs. We must survive, after all, to complete our mission, must we not?"
"I was up for genocide," replied Jerax, "but getting everyone back in one piece is good too."
Kirk Hetfield |
Kirk laughs at Jerax.
Holding the vial up in the air it begins to glow. Kirk looks the other way and squints as if he thinks it is about to blow up. Continuing to hold the vial up in the air he slowly walks over to Alicia.
Well? Anything?
GM-Gathrix |
The deer trail is narrow and the forest is thick in this area. Everyone will have to walk single file if they want to go normal speed. Give me a marching order, you can discuss in Discussion tab if need. I will give you a suggested one help the process

Jerax Hellfire |
Jerax has his battleaxe out and ready. keeping his eyes on Ileosa, Meridian, and the surrounding woods.
Izrail Arvanxi |
Ileosa smiled as she slowly removed Izrail's helmet. Her eyes met and held his as she said "It seems your eye have gone back to blue." jokingly of course. "Are you truly so worried about things like that my knight?"
Izrail smiled, blushed and caresses her cheek "You wouldn't believe how much have you striken me on the last days. I'd lose my mind if anything happens to you and I couldn't help it..."
_____
During the marching time Izrael braces his fauchard and keeps an eye on his surroundings, alert against ambushes and perils... and checking on Ileosa frecuently.
Ileosa Albus |
Ileosa grinned as she leaned into his hand. "I look foreword to see how this goes when we leave this forest." She told him before she returned his helmet to him. "After all I have become very fond of you as well." She said before they moved on their way.
___________
Ileosa had the journal she had brought along out and was writing details of what had happened to them all just a few moments ago. Though every time Izrail checked on her she offered a soft smile.
Jerax Hellfire |
As Izrail is distracted with his new found love, he looks back at Ileosa just as he trips a snare trap. Ref Save DC 12 or you are upside down dangling.
GM, describe the trap for us please? Is this a snare trap attached to a nearby tree? I'm asking to see if it would be easy giving Jerax's height to chop him down?

"Izrail! My knight, are you alright?" Ileosa called as Izrail shot up into the air. She quickly began to look for away to get him down.

GM-Gathrix |
As the rest of the group hears Izrail's exclaimation of being caught in a snare, there are sounds of approaching Vegepygmies from the flanks. The snare is attached to a large nearby tree. Escape Artist DC 12 or wait until someone cuts you down...

Escape Artist: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21

Ileosa Albus |

Ileosa's left eye gleemed as she reached out and placed her hand on Izrail's shoulder before giving him advise on those attacking them.
Guidance and Combat advise to Izrail, +3 to his next attack. If that is how he wishes to use his guidance. Also fair warning, I'm running a temp so if my posts seem off or odd that is why.

Seeing Jerax take a decent wound from one of the Vegies Kirk flips his sling around to use as a club and flanking it.
Fire! May he be praised! They closed too quick though, looks like Jerax needs help from the small one.
