Chris:
Though it's hard to tell from your position, you are certain the crystal was not created by someone, however, while you can't tell what kind of magic formed it, you're pretty sure it's tied to the Plane of Earth and is as natural as the cavern you're standing in.

Tikkle:
You don't catch a hint of anyone around other than you and your companions.

Anyka:
You see no inherent dangers or even feel threatened.

Terra:
As you step next to the crystal the voice returns. "Place the Source Stone to your forehead."


F Human

Carefully, Terra reaches out and takes the crystal. she pauses a bit unsure if she should proceed.

looking back to everyone else. The voice says to put this thing to me forehead. I'm a little scared. If this thing takes me over like the piper does, don't hold back. I'd rather you kill me than let me suffer through being possessed by him.

She waits to get some sort of approval from her friends before proceeding.

Looking up at Terra she nods, "You have my word. If you go crazy we'll totally kick your ass. Everything will be okay."

"I don't sense anything dangerous from it," Chris says.

Terra looks at GAshka for a bit, you have any idea how screwed up that just sounded?

She gives her sister a wry grin, "I'm just tellin' ya that we'll do as you asked. Go for it already."


F Human

Terra places the crystal to her forehead (before Gashka comes up and does it for her).


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka stands there and covers her mouth as she tries not to giggle. Provided nothing bad happened to her sister, Terra could kick her ass later.


Male Trapper/Guide 7 HP: 69/69; AC: 18, T: 13, FF: 15; Fort: +8, Ref: +9, Will: +5; Init: +5, Perception +17

Flynt braces himself when Terra places the crystal on her head. He couldn't handle if anything happened to her. He'd had enough girlfriends dying on him for a lifetime.


Female Human (1/2 Minkai) Rogue 7 (Knifemaster)

Anyka grips a dagger, praying she won't have to use it to filfill Terra's request.


As Terra puts the crystal to her forehead, a band of pure silver wraps around, securing it in place.

Terra:
You feel more intuitive and it also feels as if your inner Ki is flowing better. "Well done Child of the Earth, you have claimed that which belongs to all children of the four. Use it wisely." The voice said before fading away.

This Source Stone Headband functions as both a Headband of Inspired Wisdom +2 and Headband of Ki Focus.

With an incredibly delayed reaction, Tikkle leaps toward Terra with an exaggerated battle yell. He extends his brilliant energy rapier, but shuts it off at the last second so that only the bladeless hilt touches her. "Hahaa! You all should see the looks on your faces!" He laughs and skirts the inevitable punches from Gashka and Terra. Wiping tears from his eyes, he adds "But seriously T, looks good on you. Is it magical? I mean like one of those that helps you do stuff."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She shakes her head, "You're not as funny as you think you are." She says with a slight smirk on her face.


F Human

Terra Smiles for brief second. well a brief second is all Tikkle gets the chance to see.

A pillar of rock erupts under him launching him across the room. Then with blinding speed Terra appears beside him, you should see the look on your face she says with a smirk.

no damage inflicted

does that count as, "stuff"?


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka tries not to chuckle....but she really can't help it. Tikkle should know better by now. At least she didn't send him crashing into a wall. Covering her mouth with her hands as she tries to get the chuckles under control she says, "If we're done here we should get going."


HP 70/70 Panache=5 Swashbuckler 7 Init +6 AC/FF/T 21/15/16 | F+6 R+12 W+3 | Perc +8 +scent

"I deserved that..." Tikkle mumbles from his upside down state.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

As he sits there in his upside down state, Gashka just can't seem to help herself and walking over to him she gives him a smile right before swatting him on his rear. "That's from me....because I can. Now quit fooling around and let's get going. I'm not sure that there's much else on this island that we need....unless anyone can come up with a good reason to investigate this place further, I say we get the hells outta here." She looks at Druuth, "Are you content to stay here or would you like to leave this place? Unless there is something about this island that you know that we do not that would warrant further investigation." She asks as she raises an eyebrow and keeps one eye on Tikkle so she can get out of his reach before he gets back up on his feet if she has to.


Druuth shrugged, "Other than this temple, there isn't much to this island. If you don't mind, I'd rather stay here. There isn't much left in me as it is, and I'd rather go down fighting than die in some bed." Placing his hand over his heart, the old Orc bowed his head, "Good journey to you and your companions Gashka. And tell the Iron Underdog that I said hello." With that, he turned and left the temple.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She stood there and shrugged, "Well...you heard the man. There isn't much left here, so I guess we better get back right?"


F Human

Laughing a bit at The Tikkle flinging, Terra still seems a little...lost.

Wait a sec guys. something just does not seem right. Tikkle, you got a map that led us here. I, personally wasn't super thrilled about coming here at first. yet this place was all about me. that has me worried. and Then there's Druuth there, and his crazy stories. I mean, what the hells is going on. something just does not seem right.

Terra paces trying to piece things together. where is the treasure? why would so many others want that map?

I don't know, maybe this is all there is, but it just seems a little too convenient, don't ya think? and besides What the heck is this temple anyway.

Terra starts to examine everything about this temple, I mean, who am I? What is this place, really?


Male Trapper/Guide 7 HP: 69/69; AC: 18, T: 13, FF: 15; Fort: +8, Ref: +9, Will: +5; Init: +5, Perception +17

"Apparently you're the earth princess." Flynt says once he stop chuckling at Tikkle being thrown. "Here? No clue. It's Nowhere as far as we're concerned. But we should check out the rest just in case."


HP 70/70 Panache=5 Swashbuckler 7 Init +6 AC/FF/T 21/15/16 | F+6 R+12 W+3 | Perc +8 +scent

"Aye. My treasure sense is tingling. I'll not run without having seen more of this place. Druuth, you said you have shelter? Might we impose a bit longer? Also, are there any other intelligent folk on the island, or maybe signs thereof?"


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka just sighs as her friends try to decide what to do next. Even though she felt there was no point in sticking around here, she would do whatever they felt like doing. She would do anything for them, especially Tikkle....and he knew that, at least she hoped he did.


Druuth turned around at the entrance, "In my time here, I've not seen a single one. This island seems to be nothing but large primal beasts and elementals." As if on cue, you hear the roar from earlier off in the distance. "Like that one for example. He's rather large."


Male Trapper/Guide 7 HP: 69/69; AC: 18, T: 13, FF: 15; Fort: +8, Ref: +9, Will: +5; Init: +5, Perception +17

"So it's just monster island basically?"


HP 70/70 Panache=5 Swashbuckler 7 Init +6 AC/FF/T 21/15/16 | F+6 R+12 W+3 | Perc +8 +scent

"I see..." Tikkle pulls out the map and opens it, hoping the trek inland revealed something interesting.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She shakes her head, "That's good enough for me. I'm sorry love, but if you think I'm gonna stick around to watch you go off and try to get yourself killed, you have another thing coming. I'm going back to the ship, when you're done playing around...you know where to find me, if you don't get yourself killed first."

Just tired of everything she turns around and heads back the way they came to get back to the beach and the ship. The others could go back with her, or head off on some foolish exploration of an island that apparently is just filled with monsters, a crystal shard for Terra and not much else of anything that would be of any use what so ever. She wasn't about to stick around and wait for something to show up to eat them.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She knew that some of the things she was feeling were just irrational and probably due to all the stress she had been under, but she just couldn't help but feel the way she felt.


Tikkle:
As you opened the map, you see more things were revealed. Some of them a little confusing. About where you met Druuth, the is a mark with his name on it. Where you currently stand, there's a dot that says Temple of Earth. Three other dots are also located at various locations that say, Temple of Fire, Temple of Air, Temple of Water. However, those locations have you physical features available, just dots in blank space. The most disturbing mark however, was an X in the middle of the island that simply said, 'Shade Ambush' and not too far from that, was another mark that said, 'Tigol's Legacy'. What was your Father's name doing on the map?


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Dammit!


HP 70/70 Panache=5 Swashbuckler 7 Init +6 AC/FF/T 21/15/16 | F+6 R+12 W+3 | Perc +8 +scent

Tikkle looks up at the group with a hard set to his jaw. "We make for the center of the island, and we will likely be attacked on the way. Make ready all." His tone further emphasized that it was not a discussion.

To Druuth, he says "I have reason to avoid the exact center of the island, but my destination is a few hundred yards east of it. Do you think you can point us in a way that will bring us there safely?"


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Since you didn't seem to notice that your girlfriend
already walked off, you might wanna think about catching me and explaining yourself before just letting me walk away without knowing what's going on.


Female Human (1/2 Minkai) Rogue 7 (Knifemaster)

"Wait what? Whay?" Anyka asks arms folded.


HP 70/70 Panache=5 Swashbuckler 7 Init +6 AC/FF/T 21/15/16 | F+6 R+12 W+3 | Perc +8 +scent

"I'm starting to think that each of us have something to find here. This is mine." He shows the map. (see that last spoiler)

@Gashka, Tikkle is pretty laser focused right now, and assumes that you'll turn around when you realize no one is following you :P


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Actually no she won't. Tikkle isn't the only one who has a lot on his mind on the moment and because she walked away before you even looked at the map she has no idea what's going on, so it'd be best to stop assuming and start communicating. Also, we can't "look inside spoilers" in the game or read your mind. So best to be straight forward at this point.

Gashka keeps walking through the, whatever this place was as she heads back the way they came to get to the beach. Shaking her head she can't stop thinking about things as she heads back to the ship. If they wanted to go traipsing about some death trap of an island pointlessly, then so be it. She would wait on the ship, or the beach at least. Maybe the quiet would give her some time to think.


Tikkle's question went unanswered by the Orc, for he wasn't there.

----------------------------------------------------------

Gashka heard a voice that currently, she probably didn't want to, "GASHKA! STOP RIGHT NOW!" She heard just as a giant spider popped out of the ground in front of her the exact instant a spear flew passed her and embedded itself in the creatures head. Coming up to the fallen figure, the Druuth extracted his spear. "You're just a little off the path we took to get to the temple. It's dangerous to be out here alone if you're new to this place. I know I'm probably the last person you wish to see right now, but would you like me to guide you back to your boat?"


The map added two more dots as Tikkle showed the others, one said Gashka, the other Druuth.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She stops abruptly at the sound of Druuth's yelling, then lets out a screech as the spider pops out of the ground in front of her. Before she even has time to react there's a spear in it's head.

Taking a moment to catch her breath and make sure her heart is still in her chest she looks up at him at the exact moment that her stomach let's out a loud sounding rumble. Blushing ever so slightly she says, "Sorry....I guess I didn't eat that much this morning and nearly getting killed kinda works up an appetite as does finding out things that have been kept from me my whole life by the two people I'm supposed to trust most." She sighs, "It's not your fault that they kept their past hidden from me, and I don't hold it against you for speaking the truth.....even if it is a little hard to swallow. Like Chris said though, I didn't grow up in that life and they love me as I am....so, should it really matter to me that they lied to me my whole entire life? Is it any worse than keeping my feelings for Tikkle hidden from them for so long? Well....really it took a while for me to realize exactly what my feelings for him were myself.....sorry, I'm babbling now."

She takes a moment to rub her temples as her stomach makes another loud protesting sound. She sighs again and looks up at him as she stands there with her hands on her hips, "Actually...I think I might have to eat something before going all the way back to the ship. You said something about a cave earlier and something to eat? Is that offer still good?" She asks with a small half smirk on her face.


"Hold a moment." Druuth said as he slung his shield over his shoulder and handed Gashka the spear. After climbing a tree, he returned with orange the size of a cantaloupe. "This should tide you over for now." Taking his weapon back, "The offer still stands, but don't you think you should let the others know where you're headed? You did say you were heading back to the ship. It might look strange if you weren't there."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

She bites into the fruit and tires to keep the juices from going everywhere. Shaking her head she says once she's swallowed, "I'm starving and they're not stupid. They'll figure it out. Right now...I've got too much going on in my head to really care how it might look." She says matter of factly.


Druuth shrugged, "Suit yourself." Taking a step towards his home, he said, "This way."


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Gashka followed Druuth as he led the way back to his place. If Tikkle is going to be so adamant about searching for some kind of treasure or something that probably doesn't even exist, at least I can get something to eat. He'll find me when he decides I'm important enough to look for. She thinks to herself a bit sulkily.


It doesn't take long for the pair to reach a small cave with firelight flickering from the entrance.


"Hold a moment." Druuth said as he walked forward and disabled the barely perceptible tripwire at the opening. Pointing up with his spear, you see a large log with two foot, blood-stained wooden spikes protruding out one side. "You'd be surprised how much dinner I've caught with that thing."


The interior of the cave is primitively adorned in furs and crude wooden furniture. Off in one corner is a hot spring about five feet in diameter and sticking about three feet up from the ground.


"Make yourself at home." Druuth said.


F Human

Terra was off playing in the dirt, trying t figure out what interesting powers she may have learned.

nothing really changed, everything feels the same, but this must have some meaning.

suddenly she stops. she plants her foot firmly on the ground. she senses that there are some missing.

turning to the group, where's gashka? and that other Orc, Dog, or something like that.


Female Half-Orc Brawler 7 HP: 59/66; AC: 19, T: 14, FF: 15; Fort: +5, Ref: +7, Will: +3; Init: +3; Perception: +11, Sense Motive: +11, Intimidate: +16

Looking at the spiked trap she kind of shakes her head, "Hmmm...actually that doesn't really surprise me much at all. You seem to have done very well at surviving here for all this time." She says as she takes her boots off for her feet to relax and breath. She sighs as she sits down in what appears to be a crudely fashioned chair. Remembering her papa and his woodworking she says, "You know papa makes furniture now as well as hunts? He's always bringing home interesting things." She says conversationally.

"Druuth. Gashka's going to wait for us back at the ship. She seemed awful steamed us wanting to stay here. Hopefully she feels better soon.

I dunno about Druuth. How are you feeling?"


Female Human (1/2 Minkai) Rogue 7 (Knifemaster)

"You realize how easily this could be a trap right? On top of which Gashka storms off disturbed and the @#$%er who just dumped a ton of information on her vanishes as well and you don't find that troubling?" Anyka asks.
