I hate it when I post and I am not done.

1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15
I am afraid, Miss Kendra, that it is not just us.
Vertielle snaps her figures and utters an indecipherable word. With a flourish of the wrist, a dancing werelight appears overhead the figure.


Female Half-Elf Bard (Archivist) 5/ Pathfinder Chronicler 1 (hp 49/49; AC 18/14/14; 15/15 rounds)

grapple is standard. charge and trip, and its only one full round action. just a suggestion to mechanically adjudicate that image


DM Ninja/infinite

We need a few more initiatives, but with that roll, Evangline does succeed in grappling the figure...a maddened Gibs Hephenus. The dog is laying on the ground bleeding from a slash to his neck.

Wood's spell hits as well.

Gibs Hephenus: male old human warrior-4: HP34-2=32


Female Human Ninja 3

Initiative: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

In a fluid motion Que draws her weapon and readies herself for an attack, slowly walking closer to Gibs.


Half-orc
Normal:
HP: 14/14 AC 17/13/14: F+3, R +3, W -2, Per:-2, Init: +3

Init: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Gkirkhan, not sure what's going holds until Vertielle's light reveals that the man is Gibs.

"Dem, I thought dot he vas locked up."

Gkirkhan walks forward drawing his hammer.

"Put down de butterknife befores hyu hurt hyurself."

Despite his words, he's almost hoping the old man causes trouble, almost.

Ready action: If gibs doesn't drop his weapon by the end of the round, OR he tries to hurt someone, he smacks him with the hammer.
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
Whiff.whiff.whiff...

Round 1:
Wood
Que
Gkirkhan
Evangline
Vertielle
Gibs
Old River

Gibs starts to rant, in a strangely harsh voice "Yes, yes, kill me if you can, she will still die and we will be free! Bring blood and fire upon this town!"

Gibs[will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17
He tries to break the grapple. cmb: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

"Will someone help me, in restraining him."


DM Ninja/infinite

As Gibs is unarmored, Gkirkhan's swing also connected:

Gibs Hephenus: male old human warrior-4: HP base/current: 34/23; condition: grappled

OLdRiver, confused by the situation, barks loudly.


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

"Will someone help me, in restraining him, and not in killing him."


Female Human Ninja 3

Que Xuang storms forward and tries to help Evangline with restraining Gibs

Grabble to assist Evangline: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22


DM Ninja/infinite

Other ninjas ate my post.

Gibs' CMD is 17, you have a good grip on him.

Kendra runs to the jail, shouting for help.


Female Half-Elf Bard (Archivist) 5/ Pathfinder Chronicler 1 (hp 49/49; AC 18/14/14; 15/15 rounds)

Vertielle jogs forward. As Que sweeps the old man's legs and Evangline begins to truly get a better hold, her face turns dark.
Be still!
The air turns electric with her words, and your skin prickles. Gib's eyes dilate and unfocus for one moment, hopefully all Evangline needs to hold him.
The siphon! It may draw out the beast inside!
Daze DC14


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

Gib broke the grapple with me, but Que has him.

"Time for a boost."
she casts Enlarge person on herself.

and is now 12 feet and 6 inches tall.


Wood will cast Daze at Will DC 14 on Gibs. Hoping to delay him while he is restrained.


DM Ninja/infinite

Gibs: will vs Vertielle 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

Gibs: will vs Wood1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

He saves vs Vertielle's spell but not Wood's.


Half-orc
Normal:
HP: 14/14 AC 17/13/14: F+3, R +3, W -2, Per:-2, Init: +3

"*sigh* Hokay, ve vill do et hyur vay."

Gkirkhan puts his hammer back up and goes to wrap Gibs in a bear hug.

Actions:
move: put up weapon
standard: Aid in grappling Gibs: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21


DM Ninja/infinite

Gibs, or whatever, makes one more effort to escape.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

He then proclaims "You think you've won? Watch this, fools!"

With that he whips up his war razor and tries to cut his own throat!

coup_de_grace: 2d4 + 2 ⇒ (2, 1) + 2 = 5


"Pin him down and tie him up."
I can't Daze him again unfortunately for a while.


Female Half-Elf Bard (Archivist) 5/ Pathfinder Chronicler 1 (hp 49/49; AC 18/14/14; 15/15 rounds)

Vertielle's face opens with surprise, but she maintains enough composure to draw her whip and go for his blade. cmb disarm 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

Wow that is a surprise


DM Ninja/infinite

Gibs Fort_save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Medic!

OK, folks, the dice hate Gibs.

Give me dex or CMB to get the razor away from him before he kills himself. He's still last on the initiative order.


Female Human Ninja 3

CMB to take away knife: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14


Female Half-Elf Bard (Archivist) 5/ Pathfinder Chronicler 1 (hp 49/49; AC 18/14/14; 15/15 rounds)

Ready Grease on his razor, DC15 reflex, if he still has it when he acts.


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

Nice one Vertielle.


DM Ninja/infinite

Gibs reflex_save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

And the war razor goes flying out of Gibs hand as he flourishes it.

You then all dog-pile on the poor possessed fool, pinning him until the sheriff arrives.

The Sheriff arrives just in time to hear Gibs say, in that same odd voice "Next round is mine."

The voice trails off into maniac laughter, then suddenly ends, leaving a now aware Gibs finding himself pinned on the ground by strangers. He starts to struggle, loudly calling for the sheriff.


Half-orc
Normal:
HP: 14/14 AC 17/13/14: F+3, R +3, W -2, Per:-2, Init: +3

"AH SHADDUP! Ve just save hyu from hyurself."

Turning his head as best he can towards the sheriff, "Hy thought dot dis guy vas locked op. Vot happened?"


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

"He got out earlier remember the morning the sheriff and we had those nightmares. The sheriff told us Gib escaped that morning."


Half-orc
Normal:
HP: 14/14 AC 17/13/14: F+3, R +3, W -2, Per:-2, Init: +3

Gkirkhan: 0_o
Gkirkhan: ... >_< *Begins banging head on something hard.*

I couldn't think of a good way to describe his reactions, plus this was pretty funny in my head.


DM Ninja/infinite

Kendra steps over and hugs Gkirkhan. "Don't let it get to you. With everything youi've been doing since you got here, forgetting that is minor."

As explanations are made, the crowd grows. They are upset and muttering, but at this time they don't seem to be directing their fears to you. They seem more upset that the dog was injured. The councilwoman you met the other day steps up.

"I think we should all go home and rest. Let the law handle this." As the crowd starts to demand answers and that 'something be done, NOW', she continues "I am going to ask the other councilmembers to hold a town meeting tomorrow at sunset. That should allow for anyone who wants to attend to make it. If you have any -constructive- ideas about what to do about the current situation, bring them to the meeting."

She turns to you. "You folks are strangers here, and really have no direct concern with our affairs. However, I invite you to attend as well. If you have any ideas about what's happening, or what to do about it, please, advise us."

As the crowd disperses, she signals you to wait. "I din't want to panic the crowd any further, but there have been several undead incidents tonight. Father Grimburrow and his acolytes are monitoring the Restlands. I, myself, would appreciate any aid such experienced adventurers as yourselves might bring."

As she finished, Gibs pushes past her and, still looking confused, steps in front of Ghirkhan. "I was possessed? I tried to kill myself? I hurt Old River?"


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

dismisses Enlarge person

"Don't Worry,
I'll heal Old River."

casts cure light on Old River.

Heal: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5


Wood nods at Vertiele.

"Well done. What an excellent use of that spell."

Wood tries to determine what caused the possession.
Spellcraft 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (20) + 10 = 30


DM Ninja/infinite

@Wood: as far as you can tell, Gibs was affected first due to the fact he lives closest to Harrowstone. However, unless the root cause is addressed, the influence of the prison will continue to spread. What you don't know is why this is happening now. You also suspect that unless he's removed from the influence or the root cause ended, Gibe will continue to fall victim to it.

@Evangline: Old River jumps up and licks you face in gratitude.


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

in a playful tone and voice talking with Old River.
"Yah, who is a good boy, who is a good boy?"


Half-orc
Normal:
HP: 14/14 AC 17/13/14: F+3, R +3, W -2, Per:-2, Init: +3

At gibs: Yez, hyu did.


"The evil comes from the prison; unless we go in there and put the evil away, it will slowly spread throughout the town."
Wood gets a dramatic look and tone.
"Life as the people know it here will never be the same if we don't go to Harrowstone Prison, the source of wicked fire that released five of the most wicked prisoners and killed the prison guards."
Dramatic music plays
"Let's get a good night sleep and put this evil down."


Female Half-Elf Bard (Archivist) 5/ Pathfinder Chronicler 1 (hp 49/49; AC 18/14/14; 15/15 rounds)

Vertielle curtsies to Wood. Thank you!
...right after we attend the town council meeting. Hopefully, we will be able to recruit some additional arms.

Vertielle absently pets the dog's head.
What to do about Gibs?

ooc:

I know it's unlikely townfolk will accompany us, but, in horror genres, there's often those that die to illustrate the gravity of the horror, and to escalate the suspense. I like that element, but don't want to die.


DM Ninja/infinite

Gibs blinks and shakes his head, looking confused. He turns and kneels beside the dog, who flinches away, then -very cautiously- sniffs Gibs before wagging his tail and licking his hand.

With his head down so you can't see his face, he says in a choked and puzzled tone "I don't know what's going on. I *still* think it was somethin' that Lorrimor did. But whatever it is, I think you folks just might be able to fix it."

He stands up, still not looking at you, and leaves with the sheriff.

You finally make it back to Kendra's and collapse, getting a good night's rest for the first time since the funeral.

Let me know what everyone is doing prior to the meeting.

Anyone who went to the Unfurling Scroll and looked over what was there, give me an int check.

Also, your trust level has gone up, you now get a 5% discount on items you buy and you have a bonus of +2 on all Diplomacy rolls in town. The locals smile at you, know your names, and the Outward Inn will give you a free meal once a day.


After casting Identify Wood examines the treasure found in the crypt.
Spellcraft 1d20 + 10 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 + 10 = 31


Female Human Ninja 3

Que thinks that she will check the unfurling scroll to see what they have there what they might need.

Int: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17


DM Ninja/infinite

Ultimately you determine that you have the following:

1 Efficient Quiver containing 29 arrows:

12 silver arrows
10 +1 arrows
5 +1 ghost touch arrows
2 +1 undead bane arrows

4 sun rods
6 flasks of holy water (on the non-magical MW potion belt)

a MW potion bandolier containing 7 potions:
5 poitions of cure light wounds
2 potions lf lesser restoration

1 scroll of detect undead
2 scrolls of hide from undead
1 scroll of protection from evil

and, of course
the brass spirit planchette
a non-magical, MW board to use it on
4 haunt siphons (single use: 3d6 hp damage to a haunt (once); 1d6 negative energy on dirct hit, + 1 pt negative energy damage in 5' splash radius)

Note: the brass planchette is the weakest of it's kind, only allowing 1 question per use, with the smallest chance of a correct answer (0-60%) and the largest chance of a backlash from the spirit world (DC 11 will save to avoid confusion).


DM Ninja/infinite

@Que; You find the following for sale at the Unfurling Scroll; 11 remaining arcane scrolls of various levels (Floating Disk, Hypnotism, Magic Aura, Summon Monster I, Darkness, Knock, Resist Energy, Scare, Tiny Hut, Tongues), 1 wand of cat's grace (13 charges), 1 wand of slow (6 charges), and a somewhat out of place flesh golem manual.

Upon examining the manual, you find a stamp on the inner back cover; property of and a signature: Montagnie Crowl.

You remember that name. That's the name of the person you are to deliver the Professor's books to.


DM Ninja/infinite

I probably will not be able to post tomorrow until after 9pm eastern. Let me know if you are doing anything else in town before the meeting. Once everyone's ready we'll start the show. Also note you have a 15% discount on things you might buy today, if you want to stock up. Father Grimburrow and his acolytes can make more holy water if you want. There is also an armory and an apothecary in town.

As sunset nears, Kendra heads to the town hall with you. (Assuming all of you are going.) The meeting hall is a large room to the rear of he building. It is about 50' x 50', with only one entrance, a 10'wide set od double doors in the center of the south wall. The north wall has a row of windows set near the roof. Also along the north wall is a raised stage about 5' off the floor and encompasing the rear 20' of the room. The room holds 12 benches, 6 each on either side of a central coridor. By sunset, the room is packed to standing room only and full of noise as the townsfolk discuss the strange events that have affected the town and them, personally. As they grow restless, demanding solutions, the four councilmembers enter and walk to the podium on the stage. Councilman Hearthmont bangs the gavel and calls the meeting to attention.

"Citizens of Ravengro, we are aware of all the -odd- events that have occured and are actively seeking solutions. We have sent to the capitol for aid and are willing to listen to potential solutions from you. Does anyone have any suggestions? Do we have any volunteers to investigate the situation to determine the cause?"

If you want to volunteer or offer ideas, speak up and make a Diplomacy check. All of you currently have a +2 to the roll due to your actions in town so far. Go ahead and speak if you want to.


Female Assimar (with Ulfen blood) Cleric(Theologian) 4 / Monk(Spirit Master) 2

I'll try to get the map ready.

Female Half-Elf Bard (Archivist) 5/ Pathfinder Chronicler 1 (hp 49/49; AC 18/14/14; 15/15 rounds)

We must strive to free Mr. Gibs from possession, and rid the town of its evil shadow. We must go to the prison, where these spirits make berth by day!
