Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

I agree. I love this campaign, but it has slowed to the point where I cannot remember what is happening when a new post is made.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina scowls at the information that some fools is attempting to incite the crowds.

Lets see what this goon is up to. If he is violating our laws, then we shall deal with him. If he is merely and idiot, the we shall see that his preaching is only heard by those with the intelligence to realize that it is nonsense.

Then, we must find that lost child and see what happened to him. We spent too much time dealing with those wolves, now we need to find the boy.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

If I were to bake an apple pie, I would eat it, not spend time measuring it. Perhaps if you spent more time experiencing and enjoying the world, rather than trying to trying to calculate the cumserfrence of pies, you would enjoy it more.

She pauses and thinks for a minute before continuing.
And, how would you know that pie does not have a last four digits? Until you get to the end, you will never know if it has an end will you?


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina begins to giggle at the wizard's response before turning back to the newcomer.
Don't worry about the old man. Just ask him the last four digits of pie and he will be entertained for days. And then you can go and get some apple pie and enjoy watching him pace about trying to come up with the answer.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina rolls her eyes at Zorestar's comment.
What he is saying is that we are a nation of settlers. Farmers. Woodsmen. Tradesmen. Families. But, we can only grow as fast as we gain settlers and make this land safe. Thus, the faster we eliminate threats, the faster the people will be safe.

So, as the leaders of this land, we all have roles. Bron and I are seeing that the people are ruled with good evenhanded justice. James is making sure that the realm's military is prepared to respond to any threats. And the good wizard is determining when the timely functioning of a coefficient will cause his comfort to regress slower than he predicted.

When the new priest looks away, Carina turns her head and sticks her tongue out at Zorestar.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina looks cross eyed at her husband before turning to the newcomer.
If he shows up in the middle of the night stinking drunk, you are going to be facing a very unhappy wife and mother in the morning.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina raises her eyebrow at Zorestar's remark:
The only difference between intelligent wolves, nobles, and common folk is the number of each. If there were more nobles and fewer common folk, then the later would be the sought after ones, or else the nobles would all starve. Similarly, if there were far more white wolves, then in all likelihood, most humans would be kept in pens and used as fodder.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina looks to Zorestar:
When we need him, he will be there. I must say that strange icy wolf was strange. Wonder how it got this far south. Would have expected something like that in Issian or north of the Lake of Mists and Veils.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

I have no idea where Bron is. He is in one other campaign with me, but that one has been pretty much inactive for almost two months.

He is still on the site. I see a post by him on July 14. So, I assume he is around. Might want to shoot him a PM.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

No clue about Bron. He might have evacuated his home because of the coming World Cup.

He has one post as Rune on May 24, one post in another campaign I am in with him on April 17, and the last posts other than those are March 27. I hope we have not lost him. I am hoping that if we can get the speed up, he will return.

Also, I think that Zorestar is going to be gone for a few weeks this summer traveling. I should be around most of the time.

Carina looks to James:
Your guess is as good as mine as to what the crazy hermit will do. We should let him play with the fur and bones that the wolves left him. He will probably make a hat out of them or something.

Turning back to Lord Varn.
I think that it is time to head back to the capital to make sure that nothing has happened while we were gone.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Once Zorestar has unsteadily mounted his stead, Carina looks to Lord Varn with a big grin.
Your son-in-law needs to lighten up. Want to see something funny, watch this.

She then casts Grease on Zorestar's saddle to see what happens.
--> probably DC16 Reflex to avoid falling off the horse.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina thinks about Varn's words for a moment before turning back to Telias:
You sure we should be eating this thing? We have plenty of food from the farms that we have developed in the land to the north of the capital.

She then looks back to Lord Varn:
My apologies for the informal greeting. Usually we would welcome you in the capital with the usual pomp and circumstance. You know that my husband prefers the formalities and the like.

Actually, as we had just finished up eliminating this frozen dog, I suppose I would appreciate your company on the return trip. Larger forces usually scare away any menace foolish enough to attack.

She then looks back to Telias:
You going to continue playing with the animals or would you like to join us?


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina looks as Telias slices and dices the wolf.
I can warm that up if you want.

When Varn arrives.
Lord Varn, welcome. We were just finishing preparing dinner. I like to call it fried ice. Have you ever tasted well cooked winter wolf? I have no clue what it will taste like, but this seemed to be a prime time to try as not many traveling merchants have a supply of fresh winter wolf.

hp: 4d8 ⇒ (6, 8, 8, 8) = 30

Thats some insane rolls.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Welcome Elias. I am also hopeful that this campaign picks back up and we get the crew back together. Carina can be a little blunt and overbearing at times, but what do you expect from an Orc bloodline sorceress.

Pretty sure that HP are straight rolls. Search back on the discussion thread and they should be there somewhere. If not, find Part I of this on my old campaigns, it should be in there.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Not really paying attention to the wizard, Carina shakes her head:
No, they are too stringy and don't cook well.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina looks at her companions.

I hate dogs.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Are we all still here? There are some big gaps in posting from a lot of people.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina growls: My husband is going to be p!ssed at you.

She then steps back and waves of fire shoot from her hands as she yells to the others.
Bron, your sword.

Cast Defensively: 1d20 + 5 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 + 5 = 25 vs DC17

Damage: 5d4 + 5 ⇒ (4, 2, 4, 2, 2) + 5 = 19 <-- Reflex DC17 for 1/2 damage

Two things, Bron should be size large from the Enlarge Person I cast. Also, why did Bron move away from protecting me and Zorestar? I see that you posted he moved, but am confused as to why he would have moved away from blocking the charge lane while invisible?


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

You might want to post for him. He has not posted in a while on my other campaign either. Although I have not heard that he is gone.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Knowledge(arcana): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Carina glances at Zorestar:
It is a smelly cold dog. And dogs burn.

She then yells across the area.
Hope you like fire!!!

Case Spontaneous Immolation.
Damage: 3d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 1, 6) + 3 = 14 + catch on fire <-- fire damage
--> DC17 Fort for 1/2 damage and avoiding catching on fire
--> If on fire, takes 1d6+1 damage each round and may make a DC17 reflex save to extinguish the flames


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina growls at the mage:
The first spell was set them afire. Stupid dog must be too wet.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Lets just post away and try to get things moving. This was one of my favorite campaigns and would like it to be so again if we can get it moving.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Where is everyone? I know that Zorestar and Telias are around although I have not seen posts from them recently. DM Aron seems to be returning to posting, so lets get this thing moving.

Bron - where are you? Are you still with us on a regular basis?


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Round 1

Carina, apparently forgetting that they group was using stealth to protect its casters, yells at the worgs in Orcish.

Burn you stupid dogs.

A second later three darts of light spring from her hands and fly across the distance striking the already injured worg.

Cast Magic Missile:
Damage: 3d4 + 6 ⇒ (3, 3, 4) + 6 = 16


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Sorry to see you go Ganit, although I can understand the difficulty with your character and the long delay in the campaign. It has been fun playing with you for the past two years.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

170ft - good, then Carina will walk forward and cast Spontaneous Immolation. Range is 150ft.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Hmmm, for some reason I thought there was a winter wolf leading two other worgs. Not sure where I got that from. I will just target one of the worgs then.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

If we are within 150', Carina will cast Spontaneous Immolation targeting the big white wolf.

Damage: 3d6 + 3 ⇒ (4, 3, 4) + 3 = 14 <--- +50% of vulnerable - Fort DC17 for 1/2 damage.
--> if Fort Save misses, then catches on fire and takes fire damage each round, DC17 Reflex to put out each round


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Readying an action is a Standard Action, since you can take a Standard Action in a surprise round, I would assume that you can ready on your surprise turn. You just cannot ready actions out of combat (although this sounds really foolish to me, it is apparently the RAW.)


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Cool, now lets get going to wipe out the troublesome hounds.

Just realized why I though you might be gone. When I clicked on your Campaign tab, I only saw this campaign because it was showing them for James, not for Balodek. DOH!!!


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

How far away from the wolves are we? One round of moves? Or more?


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Might want to shoot Ganit a PM. I think he is still on the site as I believe he had a post with another avatar last week.

James might be gone. He does not seem to have posted at all since December.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina nods: Then let us prepare. Here is a little something to help our warriors.

She casts Enlarge Person and Bull's Strength on Bron. She then casts Bull's Strength on James.

- 5 minute duration on each.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina nods at the wizard's response and ignores his question:
So, it does not inhibit their ability to smell anyone that cannot be seen. This will have to be carefully considered in our tactics.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina rolls her eyes at the city born mage:
Does it mask the smell of my husband? I believe that most wolves track by scent. If this spell of yours does not mask smell, then it does not sound like it will be of great effect.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Stealth: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

Carina follows the men as quietly as she can.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

James, Zorestar, Bron, Telias and I are all still posting fairly regularly, so we five should be good to continue. I have not seen a post from Ganit in quite some time. Might be worth a PM or email if you have one.

I should have cast Enlarge Person and Bull's Strength on Bron.

Carina will follow the men prepared to use her spells as necessary.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Ganit has not posted since June. Hopefully he is not gone.

Carina looks to her husband and then calls upon the Orcish rage constrained beneath her changeling exterior to grant him great strength and gigantic size.

Cast Bulls Strength. Then cast Enlarge Person.
Both should last 5 minutes.

Lets show these evil interlopers how Vertaria deals with those who would harm our land.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Polo...


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Know(arcana): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

Carina attempts to recall what she remembers about the worgs from the last time they fought on the plains to the northwest what seems like years earlier. Unfortunately, despite a very concentrating look on her face, she is unable to recall much.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Good luck, you will find something.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

I cannot really afford anything useful yet.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina looks at the Magister: Won't take long to deal with them. Cast spells, BOOM, dealt with.

Carina's stellar wisdom is shining through.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

We shoot them, then we burn them, and if any are left, James charges through them until there is nothing left but bloody singed pelts.

Carina does not seem to think much of these worgs, or perhaps it is her orcish side talking.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Might want to PM Bron. He posted on another campaign yesterday. Also, shoot Ganit and James PMs since I am sure they will want to get back involved.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Carina looks to the men:
Well, lets get the rest of the crew together and go find us some puppies. I understand that worgs really like being lit on fire.


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Where was this fight? Where was your tribe located?


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Although Carina is concerned with the though of condemning a man who is truly only guilty of being under a curse, she recognizes that the appearance of the justice handed out by the rulers of the land is almost as important as the punishment itself. Thus, she stands by her husbands side and nods as he gives the youth the options.

When Bron finishes, Carina adds.
One thing that will be considered in the punishment you receive will be the help you provide us. You are inflicted with a curse that turns you into a werewolf. My understanding is that this is usually caused by being bitten by another one inflicted with the same curse. Where were you before you came to this good city? You were obviously attacked at some point, do you recall where?


Female Changling(Hulking) Sorcerer - Orc Bloodline/5 - HP: 12/28; AC16,T14,FF13

Pretty much the way we are running the nation is to give everyone a chance. Even if it means leaving him in a cell for a few months until the curse can be removed, that is what we will do. If he desires to die, that can be done, but I would prefer fashioning a cell and making sure that he cannot get out.
