Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |
"She speaks giant. She mostly talks about food and not liking cats."
Lyosha Neverhome |
Neverhome thinks up a reply or two on communicating with Hila but discards it rather than antagonize Percy or Hobbes further, at least for the moment.
Hila the Orphan |
Hila's ears perk up. While she didn't understand what all these furless were talking about, she sensed that she was a topic of conversation. One of the small females gestured towards her.
"Where are we going now? Is there food there?"
Allie Silvershaper |
Allie just looks at Zses with a strange look, sees she is holding his hand pulls away and mudders something to herself. Like she was scoling herself for some reason.
Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |
"A place called Whitethrone, it has more of your peoples. Don't worry, we'll get ya something to eat."
Percy Silvershaper |

Giant... Percy muses, I could probably pick that up. It's probably somewhere between Terran and Sylvan. Ricky might be able to help us!
Why yes, I am considering using a 2/day ability to RP a rank in linguistics, why do you ask?
Hila the Orphan |
"Like me? What about the cat? Are we giving him as tribute?"
Allie Silvershaper |
I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!
Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |
"It would be nice to not be the only one to talk to the pup."
"No we're not giving up the cat as tribute. We just have some things to do there. We need you to talk to them though, k?"
Hila the Orphan |
Heh.
Hila whines in disappointment.
"Okay fine.."
Zsestrian Raven |
"Is...is something wrong Allie? You okay?" Zses asks with a worried look to the redhead gnome.
Did I say something bad?
Allie Silvershaper |
Allie shakes her head and smiles and Zses for the first time. "Sorry. I had a bad dream last night." She reaches for his hand again, her face softening..
Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |
Do they look like they've noticed us?
Zsestrian Raven |
"No worries." Zses smiles as he takes Allie hand back "We can talk later about that dream, if you want. I'm all ears if it makes you feel better."
Eredhaias Malynneil |
The elf looks on into the distance, quiet for a few moments. His words come out in a halted tone at the mention of their next destination.
"We're going...to Whitethrone? Well...that's the first in a long, long time.." the elf traces a path in the snow with the tip of his boot.
Lyosha Neverhome |
"You've been there before?" Neverhome asks with an arched brow.
Lyosha Neverhome |
Neverhome stares at the Elf for a moment before nodding solemnly. "So kindred monster returning home then as well." It was a statement, not a question.
Sigrun Jagrsdottir |
"That formation is not good. Solitary creatures do't do that on their own." Sigrun mutters.
Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |
"Somebody's controllin' them? That ain't good."
Allie Silvershaper |
Allie just lies on Zses' lap and watches the birds in silence.

Actually, the Howlings District will probably help you and Neverhome begin to reconcile. There's more to Hila than initially meets the eye.
Why does this statement worry me so?
Vashti Amela |
Heh.
Hila whines in disappointment.
** spoiler omitted **
Still caught in the rapture of her prayers, the mother voice in Vashti interrupts her entreaties to Pharasma.
The pup, bright spot, little bird, all of them...they require more attention that you have given. The Lady will wait a bit.
Waves hand, conjures meat filled pastry topped with bacon.
Climbing down from the wagon, she squats down and offers it to the pup.
Here you go little one, you need not be sad.
Vashti Amela |
Allie shakes her head and smiles and Zses for the first time. "Sorry. I had a bad dream last night." She reaches for his hand again, her face softening..
Dreams are the Provence of Desna, a happy Goddess, an explorer and wanderer.
You would like her, she dances in the night sky between the stars.
She is a guardian of sleep and dreams, what troubles you little one?
Perhaps a prayer to her, to guard your dreams in the night is in order?
As she talks, she pulls her hair out of its customary braid letting it fall around her waist, pulls out a brush and starts working the knots and tangles out of it.
crap, this taking more from me than I thought it would, the greys are turning white now. How am I going to find a husband when I look like everyone grandmother...
Allie Silvershaper |
Allie sighed. "I don't think you would take what happens in my dreams very well Mama... And if Desna is the guardian of dreams, why does she torture me so by not helping me escape them... I am sick of re-living the same things over and over..." She sighs and turns her head away, facing Zses' stomach. "Zses, keep me awake okay? Don't let me sleep..."

"Only Spirit of dreams I know of is Lamashan... Marzanna dreamt of her often." Neverhome absentmindly adds.

Hila nuzzles Vashti happily after yet another treat.
"Okay, I'll follow you now. The half-man is on his own. Nom,nom..nom.."

You're not the only one.
"Just great..." Hobbes mutters.
Zsestrian Raven |
"Sure thing, Allie!" Zses says to Allie while he strokes her hair, smiling bitterly as he takes in his hand the desnan pendant.
It seems like I'm not the only that has no idea of what Desna wants to do...now that I think about it, I didn't have that dream for some time: I feel that something even worse is going to happen, tough...
Your Benevolent Dictator |
Falcons: 6d20 ⇒ (13, 10, 5, 15, 8, 12) = 63
Hobbes/Neverhome/Sigrun/Vashti/Hila/Ered/Silence: 6d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 6, 2, 6, 1) = 21
Damage: 2d8 ⇒ (8, 5) = 13
Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
A flurry of arrows suddenly flies through the air. Most bury themselves in the snow, but two strike Sigrun and Silence. A moment later, the gyrfalcons dive from the sky, temporarily blinding several of you. As the surprise wears off, you can see a half-dozen archers advancing toward you. Ringeirr grows pale. "The Winter Guard! They've found me! I hope you're as skilled warriors as your feline companion."
Hobbes/Neverhome: shaken
Sigrun: 12pts damage, shaken
Silence: 7pts damage
Percy Silvershaper |
Could we have ranges/disposition. I need to decide if I need to AoE or go single target pain
'Silence' |
Silence for lack of a better word yelped as the arrow struck him, instantly he drew his own bow and loosed a return arrow, kicking Mule into movement, to make at least a moving target.
retalitory arrow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 1
Range: 70 feet from the walking bad guys Dispostion. Sunny but today there is a chance of hissing showers, something about a reaction to unannounced arrows.... drawing bow as part of move action, loosing arrow, mule is heading 45 angled torwards the bads
Hobbes 'Rat Trap' Bitterleaf |
"We're all gonna die.."
Hobbes will draw his bow and fires.
1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
Hila the Orphan |
Hila looks up to her new 'master'.
"Do you want me to hurt them? I'll defend you, don't worry."

Percy whistles and Rocky makes another guest appearance among her foes!
He's standing right in the center
Ding!: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
pain: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
Ding confirm!: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
more pain: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
And promptly bursts the left nut of the first one to look down.
Percy moves opposite silence to get toward a kind of flanking. Being bunched up was a bad idea right now.
Sigrun Jagrsdottir |
Looking at the injury on her arm Sigrun glares at the oncoming archers in annoyance, the green of her eyes glittering in anger as she suddenly explodes into action charging at one of the archers. Her hammer smashing into the mad with bonebreaking force.
Rage:Charge: 1d20 + 8 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 2 = 25
1d12 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Lyosha Neverhome |
Growling as the birds descend upon them it devolves into a full blown roar as he sees the arrows hit Sigrun, his skin starting to crack and break from its own inner vehement fire he charges at the archers.
Charge: 1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 2 + 2 - 2 = 22
Damage: 2d6 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 2) + 6 + 2 = 14 +1 FIRE damage
Zsestrian Raven |
Isn't snow difficult terrain? And ouch, 70 feet away and with a square of distance from each other? How dare they make sound tactical choices! ;)
"What do you mean they found you?" Zses shouts slightly exasperated as he wades trough the snow towards the gyrfalcons. Retrieving an handful of dust from his component pouch, the witch throws it at the enemy after muttering a spell. The particles of dust quickly acquire velocity as they move towards the rightmost archer, slamming into him with a dazzling burst.
Standard Action: Glitterdust, DC 16 Will or be blinded. I said rightmost, but I just wanted to make sure to target one of the falcons that the others didn't already hit.
Lyosha Neverhome |
Barbarians being able to charge 80 ft is fun!
Da! Very much so :3
... now if YBD would just let us use the Unchained stuff...
Vashti Amela |
Hila looks up to her new 'master'.
** spoiler omitted **
Seeing the pup looking at her, Vashti makes direct eye contact, then nods her head at the Winter Guard.
Get 'em.
Holding action.

Hila barks and double moves to meet the enemy.

Allie walks up with Zses, touching herself as she mutters a bit. Mage armor for me.
