ouch, dicebot sucks sometimes... but then again, we don't want to kill the man, apparently just the moss? can Sheelah differentiate like we might be able to?

ranged touch d20+6. The globule hits Xanxan on the face as it tries to burrow into his skin requiring a DC 15 fort save or take d4 wisdom damage.

"Husband?" The glob hits Xanxan, "Ugh, how revolting."

Fort Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9 +2 more if this counts as mind affecting thanks to Free Spirit

The gnome winces as he feels it trying to crawl INTO him, and he retreats (full move back to the others) cursing bitterly in gnomish

"There is nothing I can think of that is more effective against plants than fire" - Helgash pipes in - "Set it ablaze, and I will try to establish a life link with the man to prevent the fire from wounding him as best as I can" - he adds.

Crazy idea: Helgash will try to establish a life link with the man (and not the creature), to heal him from any fire damage. Could work?

Don't have any more of those fire bottles.


As Beck truly realizes what they are up against the group quickly changes tactics to counter the real threat. Helgash forgoes attacking for trying to keep the husband alive while the rest target the mold itself. the mold is tenacious in its defense though and at each incoming attack it tries to move out of the way so the husband is hit instead.

reflex save on each attack, DC is the to hit result
1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 fail against Jetro
1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 fail against Venja but ignores the cold damage
Sheelah missed with all of her attacks.

Xanxan retreats out away from the range of the creature as his finds himself wondering why he should retreat when the clothes of the moss troll are quite well made. Shaking his head clear he regains his faculties but thinking clearly is more difficult than it normally was.

Lara still needs her 2nd round action along with Beck. Beck you know of no way to remove the mold other than killing it and scraping it off. Perhaps ripping it off would work as well but you don't know that for sure.

The husband tries to break free again from the web bolt to move closer to Helgash. CMB 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16 He just manages to break free as he now unknowingly threatens the paladin that is trying to save his life. The mold flicks out another spore pod this time at Sheelah 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 touch AC requiring a fort save DC15 or take 1d4 ⇒ 2 wisdom damage.

next round is up for the good guys

Venja mutters something unsavory at the fact that the plant seems impervious to cold and pulls out her alchemist fire... she moves closer to avoid any penalties when she is ready to throw...

Wow, lots of fails here and the moss drops from the flurry of attacks leveled at it. Not a single successful save in 7

Once Duardlara realizes what the others are saying, she conjures up a blob of acid and looks for an opportunity to hit the moss without hitting the man beneath, but she watches the well-oiled machine that is the rest of the party finish off the thing before she can contribute.

"Wow. Variel didn't tell me how well you fight together." She looks at Xanxan, "Or how good your scout was. I didn't even know you were behind me, tailor!"

"I'm going to have to figure out how I can assist without getting in people's way."

Venja runs to the man's side, hoping he didn't suffer as much as the moss... She reaches out and touches him only (not the moss) with a healing hex.

healing hex: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9


Male Gnome Rogue-4 (Saves-F+2,R+8,W+1; Perception +9(10 vs traps);HP 21/27)

"That's kind of you, Duardlara... you're quite quiet yourself. We should have a quiet off. Scare folks... wait, I don't feel so good, or I do feel good, but also rash, or maybe glib... I think that plant did something to me."

Once the man is stable and hopefully on his feet, she turns to the others and tends to those who need help, starting with Xan, who she touches with a healing hex.

healing hex on Xan: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Helgash it looks from your tag line that you need a healing hex too, so here goes.

Venja touches Helgash as well with her hex.

sorry no healing your lost stat with the hex, and I don't have lesser restoration spell to do that with, but it did give youback 8 hp, as your status line shows you're down 10, now you're only down 2

Sheelah if visibely wobbley for a minute and is slightly addled as well, beck examines his kitty, "Poor thing, You''ll be fine, promise," he coos over his pet that jsut savagely ripped the mold off the guy.

Beck takes a look at the man and makes sure he is free of the mold, heal: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26

Yea alright mate? howdja get that gunk on yea?

oh.. and the moss, still covered in alchemists fire takes an additional damage this round... if the man does too... sorry about that

Venja, my apologies - I believe my tag line was incorrect. We were fully rested, and the group has not taken any hp damage, only stat damage, correct?

Besides, you can save that healing hex for when we are taking a beating, since I have the Ring of Regeneration giving me 1hp back per round! Dang, I still can't believe it! :D

Helgash moves closer to the man, trying to gauge how hurt he may be, and trying to release him from the webs once the moss is down.

Heal?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

"Are you well friend?" - he questions.

Life link will tick, healing him whenever he is below max-5 hp as usual ;)

Duardlara judiciously applies conjured acid to the remains of the moss until convinced it is no longer a threat. She looks more than a little spooked by the whole idea of such a thing.


Helgash you successfully restore 5 hp points to the man but somehow something goes terribly wrong and you take another 1d4 ⇒ 2 damage.

As the mold drops away the man looks at all of you in alarm but does not immediately attack. Still holding the battle axe defensively he calls out, Who are you and what have you done with me wife? Answer me before I start knocking head loose!!!

Clearly he has no clue what has happened and only snapped out of the fugue when he was healed completely by Venja's touch and Helgashes life link ability.

Helgash and perception check DC 20:

The wounds that Helgash took on himself are not healing like you would expect them to.

Perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21 "Gash, yea alright mate? Step back an Have a seat. Venja yea see anything wrong with his wounds?"

When the man comes to, beck adds "Aye, yer wife, the purty red-head dame's what sent us looking fer ya. Least she said she were yer wife. An she said we'd be invited in fer a hot supper in'f we was able ta find yea an keep yea safe. Not that that's the reason we came looking, we was wantin ta help yea. Jest worth mentionin' so yea wasn't surprised er nuthin."
Sense motive: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24 to see if there's anything he's holding back and gauge his reaction when beck describes his wife, considering she was keeping something to herself as well.

Venja notices nothing amiss and since the others have given him the gist of what has happened, she says nothing, just watches silently for now.

"You had that stuff all over you?" He asks the man, "Not the wife, the plants. Did it make you want to punch the next person swearing orange was the new black? Well, maybe not that, but making you speak before you thought, making you want to not care about consequences? "


The man blinks at you all as you start trying to explain yourselves and why you are hear. the fact that Beck mentions his wife with the 'purty red=hair' makes him calm down a bit and think that you are at least telling most of the truth. She asked you to help in exchange for some hot supper. She must have been quite upset to find me gone to offer that around here.

Wait, what do you mean I had stuff all over me?He looks down at his body and on his arms trying to figure out what you are talking about. The dead plant next to him looks nothing more than some typical moss found on rocks and trees.

As he realizes where he is he looks even more confused but amiable to what you are telling him. How did I get over here to the cave? The last thing I remember was going through the woods looking for dead wood to cut for our fireplace. I brought an armload back and that is it. I never got mad enough that I remember to start punching people though.

Beck he seems on the up and up for someone that has lost most of the day. His story checks out with what you know even the part of being surprised at his wife letting strangers in. You don't know why but that is the part she was keeping from you.

No need ta worry on us fighting, mate. Some o'tile mos what yes ran across were sommat what latches on to a body and take control o' it. So yeah somehow got it on yea an it took over. So now that we hits it off o' ya, let's get ya home eh? Beck says all cheerful. There's clearly something he's worried about but he's trying not to make a big deal over it.

Duardlara hangs back and lets the others do the talking, just keeping her ears and eyes open.

Jetro hangs back a swell in case things go sour again.


Finngarth shoulders his battleaxe and makes ready to leave the cave. By all means lets get back home to Sylgja. she must be worried sick if she actually asked for help. Not much of a people person is she.

The walk back is easily made with only a small dripping trail of blood coming from Helgash's hand onto the snow being the only noticeable occurrence.

Back at the house Sylgja runs out and grabs Finngarth pulling him into the house and closing the door quickly behind her. You can hear cries of joy and whimpering as slim hopes are realized. A few minutes later she reappears opening the door still with tears on her face apologizing for slamming the door on you. I am so sorry but my emotions overcame me there. Please come in and enjoy yourselves. I will start cooking right now for your meal.

Heal: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22 Hold up a tick eh, lemme get a look at this," Beck says as they walk back and at least tries to bandage Helgash's wound.

Beck bows to Sylgja, "Thankee kindly ma'am. It's been a rough trek so far an' we do appreciate tha 'ospitality."


Beck is able to stop the bleeding and prevent any further injury to Helgash but he is still injured. He can take the healing hex result earlier if Venja is till up to using it.


Human Fighter14HP97/112 Init+6,Per+14,F13R8W10 AC20T12FF17

I will use the healing hex on Helgash if he's still wounded. That's 12 points back for Helgash


Roll20 / Male half-orc investigator (empiricist) 1/swashbuckler (inspired blade) 1 // Init +3; Senses darkvision 60 ft.; Perception +7 / AC 19, touch 14, flat-footed 15 (+5 armor, +3 Dex, +1 dodge) / hp 22/22 / Fort +5, Ref +10, Will +6

Variel, I assume in that case, Helgash took 5 from Life Link + 2 points of damage, for a total of 7, correct?

"Thank you friends Beck and Venja" - the tiefling nods at his companions as they offer him assistance in dealing with his wounds - "I do not understand what may be wrong - the wounds caused on Finngarth by this most deviant of creatures must have been much more insidious that I initially thought..." - he admits.

With Venja's heal, Helgash is back at max hp ;)

Back at the house, Helgash bows at Sylgja - "Thank you for your kind hospitality, a hot meal will be most welcome indeed"

When the option presents itself, he will address Finngarth - "You seemed surprised that your spouse would ask for assistance in freeing you from that wretched abomination. May I ask why friend? Wouldn't that be expected? That Sylgja would look for assistance in such a dire situation?"


Male Gnome Rogue-4 (Saves-F+2,R+8,W+1; Perception +9(10 vs traps);HP 21/27)

The gnome cries to see the reunion, and then cries to hear of a good meal, and then cries when he realizes there's a lot to cry about. Finally he wipes his face, "Pardon, I seem to be especially sentimental right now. Good to see you reunited."


Love the wisdom damage type post Xanxan!!

Sylgja smiles at you Jetro and responds sincerely, My pleasure for you bringing my husband back.

Helgash:

AFter Venja heals you and hte bleeding stops you notice that while some of the blood was from the wound from lifelink the rest was coming from your hand. In particular the finger of the ring you found.

Finngarth waits until Sylgja starts working in the kitchen before he answers you with a lowered voice. In other circumstances with other people you would be right. Sylgja has always been harassed and made a target by others though all through her life for w...who she is. It has made her very cautious and almost afraid of people. That is why we live out here where few come. It gives her peace of mind and for that I am willing to do what I can for her.

sense motive DC 16:

Finngarth almost said what she is, instead of who she is.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

Helgash listens intently as the man speaks, taking in every word - "But why is it that who she is would cause her some sort of grief or harassment?" - he questions - "Would there be anything in hers or her family's past that would be stigmatized by others? Believe me I know how that can feel" - he smiles, evidencing his fangs.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23

"Fortunately I have met a group of good, and decent people - they have accepted me exactly for who I am, instead of simply looking at what I am. I call them friends now" - he looks at his travelling companions, still smiling.

Variel:

Helgash attempts to remove the ring.


Human Fighter14HP97/112 Init+6,Per+14,F13R8W10 AC20T12FF17

Jetro looks oddly at Xan as he blubbers, wondering why he has been acting so weird


Helgash:
The ring comes off but as you look in your hand it reappears back on the finger. Trying it again you get the same result. No matter how often you remove the ring it continually reappears back on your finger.

As you saved my life and have treated us fairly thus far I will tell you as long as you promise to keep it a secret. Sylgja is my wood-wife and a huldra.

A Huldra is a fey creature with a long fox's tail and an opening in their back that reveals their body is a hollow wooden shell. Sylgja wears a long cloak or wears her hair down to hide her hollow back and refuses to let others touch her.

know nature DC 16:

huldras have a wide range of magical abilities as they are fey. The most common forms can alter reality for a person for a single day either granting good or bad luck. They also have spell like abilities that range from remove curse to charm person to numerous cantrips.

Venja nods in understanding when he reveals his wife's secret. Now it makes sense that she rejected my hug...

"Your secret makes no difference to us, good sir. Your wife's uniqueness is a blessing not a curse. We wish the two of you nothing but the best. I am sorry that you have to live in such a remote place because of this. It should not be this way. Folk should learn to embrace those different from themselves. Beck, Helgash and even I myself, have suffered from this kind of rejection, so I feel her pain. However I do vow to keep your secret."

Sounds familiar, but I don't recall why...

Duardlara remains in the background, watching how the others interact with the man and trying to see how she will fit in as Variel's replacement. She does try to console the weepy gnome, concerned about his emotional state, but she really doesn't know what to say, so she says nothing.

Wood-wife? Now that is just sad, course having one that can cook and clean is useful.

Jetro thinks woodwife=dutchwife

As you saved my life and have treated us fairly thus far I will tell you as long as you promise to keep it a secret. Sylgja is my wood-wife and a huldra.

A Huldra is a fey creature with a long fox's tail and an opening in their back that reveals their body is a hollow wooden shell. Sylgja wears a long cloak or wears her hair down to hide her hollow back and refuses to let others touch her.

"Well... I have only ever remotely heard about Huldra, so I can't really say I know of them" - the tiefling retorts - "But I do know about hospitality, which you and your wife have extended us, and about worrying for the ones we care, which was proved by her actions in asking our assistance in releasing you" - he smiles - "It is all that matters right now"

Not one for particular hesitation, or disguising his words, Helgash adds - "I do not wish to disrupt our moment of relaxation friends" - he turns to his companions - "But there is something very wrong with this ring - if I remove it, it somehow appears back in my finger, and I believe this object was responsible for the aggravated wound from before, somehow" - he extends his hand for his companions to observe - "I would appreciate your opinion on this"

At Helgash's comments Beck replies, "Now that ain't nifty, Gash. But what is, is that if'n yet ring be cursed, an' our lovely lady friend here's a Huldra, what may be able ta fix it if'n that be a power that she were blessed wit.

Yea gots that magic, Ma'am?


Just as Finngarth is about to respond to you Venja, Sylgja interrupts.

Sylgja enters the room with a plate high of steaming vegetables and slabs of meat of some sort. you are thinking perhaps boar but it is hard to tell for sure. It does smell good though. Only catching the last bit of the conversation she gives her husband a glare. You told them didn't you, didn't you?!?? Well, I suppose they have a right after all to know since they did help us and seem nice enough folks. That still doesn't let you off the hook for telling them though.]

Turning to Beck and Helgash about the ring. Yes I do have such magics at my disposal. Once every seven days I can try to lift a curse that was placed upon someone. That in many eyes led people to believe that I was the one that placed the curse originally upon them. It wasn't true but that did not keep people from believing that. In fact I can see curses as well. At least their presence. It seems that both of you are under a curse. What the exact nature is I don't know however. I am willing to remove one of them and give you my husbands magical bear trap for returning him completely. That and keeping our secret is well worth the price of the trap, removing a curse and a bit of luck on the road tomorrow. Who shall I remove the curse on?

Well I reckon that trap is pretty valuable to your livelihood out here, we got some good hunters in our group so I think you should keep it.

Hold up a sec! How'd I get cursed?!? An me but nobody else... You know what kind o' curse what I got cursed wit?" Beck asks, very confused...


Male Gnome Rogue-4 (Saves-F+2,R+8,W+1; Perception +9(10 vs traps);HP 21/27)

"Cursing in public is rude," The gnome says unhelpfully, not that he means to be unhelpful, it's just well he doesn't think of how he could be, if he could at all....
helpful that is.

"I heard tales of a cursed bit of clothing that turned a man into a woman once, not that being a woman is a curse, but the fellow who put it on wasn't happy and he called it cursed so...oh wait, obviously that's not the curse either of you is under."
