JUMP CUT: A vision.
Still stunned, you see a vision of a 20-year-old Hulrun leading the burning of dozens of supposed “witches” in the courtyard of the Kite before the wardstone. You understand that this event launched the Third Crusade.
(This event happened in 4665 AR, 51 years ago.)

JUMP CUT: A vision.
Still stunned, you see a vision of Khorramzadeh the Storm King leading a brazen attack on Kenabres.
The Storm King manages to strike a resounding blow with his sword against the wardstone, which suffers only the tiniest of cracks as the balor’s sword shatters.
Khorramzadeh is then attacked and forced to flee when the silver dragon Terendelev nearly kills him.
This event launches the Fourth Crusade. In the year 4692 AR, fourteen years ago.

JUMP CUT: A vision.
You see a vision of Irabeth chasing a burly dwarven man—Staunton Vhane
(leader of the Hammers of Heaven mercenary group) into the courtyard containing the wardstone. Both paladins are heavily wounded, and as Staunton backs against the wardstone, smoke rises as his back blisters and chars, and he screams in pain. He ducks to avoid one of Irabeth’s blows, then manages to smash her knee with his hammer, dropping her to the ground.
Staunton seems ready to deliver a death blow, but the sound of approaching soldiers forces him instead to back away and summon a fiendish giant wasp that he swiftly mounts and then flies away to the north, abandoning Kenabres.
This happened in the year 4712 AR, four years ago.

JUMP CUT: A vision.
You see a vision of Minagho, a beautiful demonic woman with a long thin tail, clawed hands, and curling horns protruding from where her eyes should be, placing the wardstone fragment in this room and of Jeslyn using an unholy conjuration granted by Minagho to create the cage around it before Minagho teleports away.

JUMP CUT: A vision.
You see a vision of an event you know will now never happen—Areelu Vorlesh using a deep purple Nahyndrian crystal the size of a human’s head to corrupt the fragment, causing the entire border to flash with nauseating mauve fire that devastates the border cities and transforms countless crusaders into half-fiend slaves of the Worldwound.
You realize at this point that the demons’ entire plan was to draw as many crusaders to the border to defend it from their attacks, in order to maximize the damage this event would have caused.

JUMP CUT: A vision.
Areelu, blazing with rage as she sees what happened to the demonic forces along the borderlands through a device called an imago lens, turns the device around and glares in your direction.

JUMP CUT: A vision.
You see Areelu's projection from the Abyss via the imago lens appears as a somewhat transparent beautiful demonic woman with batlike wings, a horned brow, and glowing red eyes. She regards the still-stunned heroes scattered about the chamber (still glowing!) with a smoldering, furious expression.
You realize, it's not a Vision!
She says, “This only delays your kind’s extinction. But at least I can take steps to hasten your own.”
She makes a gesture, and a blaze of purple radiant sparks flow from her image into the room, flowing to, around and over you.
But...
The purple sparks seem to evaporate to no effect.
The witch seems frustrated when her mass suffocation spell fails to affect you.
She says, “The death throes of your wardstone seem to be protecting you from my magic. No matter. They cannot protect you from my slaves!”
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
With this, Areelu spreads wide her arms and a rift tears open in reality!
A flood of babaus tumble through into the room, and beyond them the PCs catch glimpses of even greater demons preparing to enter—vrocks, glabrezus, even a marilith—when suddenly the energy infusing them pulses back outward.
You are no longer stunned.
As this happens, a powerful energy hits the Abyssal rift and slams it shut—Areelu screams in pain as the magical feedback tears into her body, breaking bones and shredding her wings.
An instant later, her projected image vanishes—her connection to the Material Plane has been severed and she has been critically (but not mortally) wounded, but the babaus that managed to clamber into the Material Plane before the rift closed remain and immediately attack!
For this battle, the heroes remain bolstered by the supercharged energy surging through their bodies. Each hero gains the following temporary template during the battle.
Round 1_________________
Players take their turn in order of posting, enemies will go last.
TACTICAL OVERVIEW
Bear in mind, your characters begin prone, having just recovered from Stun.
He was just about to turn and try once more to grab the little lizardling when everything seemed to happen at once. He felt something pull him from the creature and bright lights disapeared into darkness for what seemed an eternity... and then the sweet taste of copper flooded his senses as he took a breath. His eyes, already shut clenched tighter as for a momentary second pain flooded every ounce of his being...his eyes shot open and he sat up as images flooded into his mind leading to the final ones.
"Run you pathetic wretch! Run into the deepest darkest pit you can find on whatever plane you can find but even that wont save you!
He growled as he rose to his feet in a righteous fury. HE gripped his holy symbol, Verbalized the components to a spell and touched Caralain, The holy energy enhancing his strength like an angry bull ready to charge.
The stunned feeling from the overwhelming visions, Alorah quickly casts a spell of protection on her companions as she rises.
Should we level to 5 now?
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Thetin feels the divine energy surging through him, like the first feeling of Torag's divine protection but a thousand fold. As the divine energy continues to swell, he feels a bond with Radiance snap into place. He feels strength flood back through his body but is still only able to watch as the visions flash before his eyes.
The tortuous vision of crusaders being turned into half fiendish slaves fades, however the image of the demonic witch remains. Seeing the real image of the one who would have put his brothers and sisters in arms through such pain fills Thetin with a cold fury, but is unable to move as she opens the rift to the abyss. His fury is quickly replaced with smug satisfaction as the energy surrounding him surges, tearing apart the rift and into the body of the demonic witch. He smiles as the image disappears and turns his attention to the horde of demons that made it through the rift.
"Welcome to Kenabres. Allow us to make your stay incredibly brief."
Thetin then rushes straigh ahead at the first enemy he can get to and lashes out with Radiance.
So many visions, so many implications. Carilain knows it will take a lot of thought to get his head around the scope of the visions he has beheld. Those things, profound as they are, pale beside his elation at seeing Kelden restored. Gladness sings through his veins like the birds of spring. Or perhaps it is just the cleric's spell bolstering him with divine strength. No, Carilain is damn glad to see Kelden, that is certain.
The extreme danger remains, however. Carilain focuses on what to do in the moment.
He casts his web spell again, not in the hopes of gobbing up a bunch of demons, but rather to limit their options.
Kankai fully expected the bright light and shards to shred her feathers and her. Upon looking down though, she saw a different thing. Her feathers, once stained with the ichor of the creatures here, were white once again and glowing.
Then the visions started. Time played in her mind. When the visions ended and she saw the creature...that vile female she was glad she couldn't move otherwise she would be launching herself into a fight she judged at this point she couldn't win. When the woman screamed in pain her emotionless face still smiled.
Kicking herself up as she collapsed she picked up her sword entering a new Tiger Stance.
Kyra's smiles and closes her eyes as the Wardstone shatters into an explosion of golden light and a myriad of razor sharp fragments. She prepares to look upon the River of Souls, but suddenly realizes there is no sudden rush of pain and she opens her eyes just in time to see the priestess turned into a red mist... She gasps in ecstasy as the holy floods through her body and soul, the burning righteous fury of her goddess...
The flooding of images is almost too much for her to follow until suddenly there she is, staring at the demoness. She has no words for the threats leveled her way; she completed her mission and saved those countless lives. If this was to be her final act, then by the goddess was it an epic one. The dervish that sacrificed her own life all those years ago in that foul basement would be proud to be apart of this moment...
And then she was there with a room full of demons and a holy fury empowering her. She gets to her feet, her eyes glowing a vibrant green and streaming tears of gold. "The darkness cannot stand before the light of the Dawnflower." She hears the shout of a voice that she knows is gone, but perhaps his spirit was still there with them, guiding them in this battle. 'Brother Kelden...'
She quickly casts a spell she suddenly seems to know, perhaps the power of the Wardstone imprinted it upon her mind. Or perhaps this was the Dawnflower at work? Whatever it was... she felt like a true hero now. A hero of Kenabres, she was no longer afraid.

Round 2_________________
Players take their turn in order of posting, enemies will go last.
Bear in mind, only if you attack with nonmagical weapons do they have a realistic chance to be damaged by the acidic slime covering the Babau.
Also, though Darkness fills the chamber, wherever you glance with your searchlight eyes is clear of it, the ten feet around Radiance is clear of it, and the five feet around Carilain is filled with a wierd purple radiance coming off of his black blade instead.
Kyra gasps as the flurry of claws seeks out her flesh, but she grins when only one of the vile things actually cuts her skin... and then the wound immediately seals closed. She then slips into her Battledance and immediately counterattacks the babau that managed to minimally injure her. "All this way you have come to simply fail. I hope your mistress burns you away upon your return to the Abyss."
She then dances away from the demons, directly behind Kankai and prepares to fight back to back with the swordmaster. "Do not let yourself become flanked, Kanai! We must dispatch this rabble quickly so Thetin does not become overwhelmed!"
• Regeneration 5 (unholy damage or evil spells)
• Resist acid 10 and fire 10
• Each hero glows with bright light that automatically dispels any 3rd-level or lower darkness effect they enter.
• Each heroes attacks are treated as good for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction, and deals +2d6 points of damage against creatures with the evil subtype.
• Once per round as an immediate action, a hero can roll 1d12 and add the result to any d20 roll he just made.
• Heroism - 50/50 minutes
Using his spellstrike ability, Carilain summons his invisible shield into existence. Then he darts forward, unleashing some of Grimstar's power into the blade. "Do you hunger?" He silently asks his weapon.
Together, Carilain and Grimstar attack.
Even as he fights, the magus tries to recall what, if anything, he knows about these enemies.
Thetin laughs as the many blows land on him with no effect, claws and acid sliding off both armor and skin with no effect. He shouts above the din of battle in Celestial to try and mock their attackers, "It is a good thing your masters sent their nursemaids instead of their warrriors otherwise I might feel like we're in trouble."
Thetin then takes a 5ft step back and swings at R5 to try and pull its attention off Kankai.
Seeing the paladin pratically alone, almost beset on all sides Kelden's pure holy anger just almost seemed to take over, Setting his shield in front of him me moved Getting beside Caralain and focusing on the same creature he struck, trying to down it quickly so they could get to Sir Thetin's aid.
Dodging most strikes, one of which missed thanks to the communal protection from evil. The one that did strike, her feathers guided the strike along her side deflecting the damage.
Kankai clacked her beak down at Kyra and chuckled. "Of course my dear. He shines bright enough to make even my feather's jealous. Luckily, my feathers are still prettier. We can take care of these. After this I should show you a bit about the tricks of flanking and how to take advantage." She jokes seeming to drop her guard as she feinted the one in front of her. The blade sang through the air as it slipped passed his guard driving deep.
Alorah feels the divine energy ignite something within her, something that erupts, almost burning an aspect of her from the inside out and leaving her...changed....more than she was.
As the demons attack, she barely feels the slashes, marveling as the wounds begin to close almost immediately, her celestial blood awakened.
She smiles then, her eyes glowing as she utters a divine word that comes to mind, throwing her arms forward as a brilliant burst of golden light envelops her enemies.
ENEMIES_______________________
The emaciated figures of the Babau demons look like horned human skeletons smothered within a bone-tight hide of slimy leather. Their hideous red eyes gaze hungrily at you as they wince at the light shining from your eyes and weapons.
Howling to intimidate, they simultaneously cast Darkness multiple ways and areas, dimming the light you can see by, then charge forth; an unstoppable horde!

Kyra Greenstar______
Kyra slips into her Battledance and immediately counterattacks the babau that managed to minimally injure her. She then dances away from the demons, directly behind Kankai and prepares to fight back to back with the swordmaster.
Carilain Riveroak______
Using his spellstrike ability, Carilain summons his invisible shield into existence. Then he darts forward, unleashing some of Grimstar's power into the blade. "Do you hunger?" He silently asks his weapon.
Together, Carilain and Grimstar attack.
Even as he fights, the magus tries to recall what, if anything, he knows about these enemies.
They love to ambush, usually under cover of darkness where they can sneak attack without fear of retaliation.
They are very tough, requiring cold iron or good aligned weapons to affect reliably. They are moderately resistant to cast spells, and moderately resistant to most elements (except sonic), and totally immune to electricity and poison.
They can see through most darkness and invisibility, can dispel magic and teleport at will.
In particular, they have a layer of acidic slime that coats a babau's skin. Anybody and anything that attacks a Babau and makes contact takes acid damage, and sometimes they like to grapple and let the acid slowly burn a creature to death while they watch and laugh.
A babau typically carries a longspear or other weapon with which it can strike at foes beyond its normal reach, but given the opportunity, a babau prefers to fight with its teeth or claws.
Thetin Dorvas_______
Thetin laughs as the many blows land on him with no effect, claws and acid sliding off both armor and skin with no effect. He shouts above the din of battle in Celestial to try and mock their attackers.
Thetin then takes a 5ft step back and swings at R5 to try and pull its attention off Kankai.

Round 3_________________
Players take their turn in order of posting, enemies will go last.
For this battle, the heroes remain bolstered by the supercharged energy surging through their bodies. Each hero gains the following temporary template during the battle.
Kyra continues her assault upon the same demon, ignoring the minor wounds to do appear upon her skin and then rapidly disappear!
• Regeneration 5 (unholy damage or evil spells)
• Resist acid 10 and fire 10
• Each hero glows with bright light that automatically dispels any 3rd-level or lower darkness effect they enter.
• Each heroes attacks are treated as good for the purposes of overcoming damage reduction, and deals +2d6 points of damage against creatures with the evil subtype.
• Once per round as an immediate action, a hero can roll 1d12 and add the result to any d20 roll he just made.
• Heroism - 50/50 minutes
Still radiant as the mere scratches begin to immediately heal, Alorah takes a single step backward as she casts the same spell, hoping to catch more of the enemy, leaving them vulnerable to her companions.
Kankai saw it notice the feint and would have grinned at the challenge but now more than anything the creature should die.
That hesitation though left her open and the companion's claw found flesh digging in. It was a mere scratch but it still stung and she danced away from its other claw and bite the protection helping her greatly. "Kyra, shall we dance?" She gave a half hearted feint to R7, but her true objective was the one in front of her that was blinded.
This was taking to long.... He was not losing anyone to the horde of creatures and he certainly wasnt being held in check by two of them blocking the door.
"Coming through Caralain!"
He called charging right through the two demons and not stopping until he was to Sir Thetin albeit slightly behind him.
When you attempt to overrun a target, it can choose to avoid you, allowing you to pass through its square without requiring an attack. If your target does not avoid you, make a combat maneuver check as normal. If your maneuver is successful, you move through the target’s space. If your attack exceeds your opponent’s CMD by 5 or more, you move through the target’s space and the target is knocked prone. If the target has more than two legs, add +2 to the DC of the combat maneuver attack roll for each additional leg it has.
Carilain takes Grimstar in both hands, and hacks at the babau he faces.

Round 4_________________
Players take their turn in order of posting, enemies will go last.
You casters should know that the Babau have SR17.
Kyra turns suddenly when she hears Kelden's voice again and gasps when he bursts through the wall of demons at the door. Her heart flutters at seeing her friend suddenly alive again! But how was it possible?! "Kelden!! How-?!" Before any more words could be exchanged she was dodging more claws and fangs! She quickly follows through with a powerful swing at the demon's head!!

• Heroism - 50/50 minutes
"No time to explain, evil to smite!"
He called out almost laughing as he spun and drove his blade deep into the creature he had just pushed past now flanked between himself and Caralain. He wanted that doorway clear so that all of them could be near enough to not get overwhelmed.
Carilain lays a wicked slash across the babau as it tries to climb to it's feet. Grimstar cuts deep into the wicked flesh.
Then the elf strikes again with his weirdly glowing black blade.
The divine power of the wardstone guides Carilain's aim, making his sword strike true.
Weilding her mace, Alorah strikes the demon in front of her bringing her weapon crashing down.
Thetin takes some wounds from his two flanking attackers but is unconcerned as the skin continues to stick itself back together. He is more concerned with the demons flanking Kelden, and continues to try and draw their attention. "You worthless piece of abyssal trash, I'm not done with you." And then swings Radiance at R5.

Kyra turns suddenly when she hears Kelden's voice again and gasps when he bursts through the wall of demons at the door. Her heart flutters at seeing her friend suddenly alive again! But how was it possible?! "Kelden!! How-?!" Before any more words could be exchanged she was dodging more claws and fangs! She quickly follows through with a powerful swing at the demon's head!!
Kelden Sunblade_______
"No time to explain, evil to smite!"
He called out almost laughing as he spun and drove his blade deep into the creature he had just pushed past now flanked between himself and Caralain.
Carilain Riveroak_______
Then the elf strikes again with his weirdly glowing black blade.
The divine power of the wardstone guides Carilain's aim, making his sword strike true.
Alorah______
Weilding her mace, Alorah strikes the demon in front of her bringing her weapon crashing down.
Thetin Dorvas_______
Thetin takes some wounds from his two flanking attackers but is unconcerned as the skin continues to stick itself back together. He is more concerned with the demons flanking Kelden, and continues to try and draw their attention.
"You worthless piece of abyssal trash, I'm not done with you."
[ooc] Kankai_______
Taking advantage of Red 4’s blindness, Kankai rolled into flank position and thrust through its stomache and out it’s back. It dies and slides off her blade.
ENEMIES________________________________
Red 2 still clutched his eyes and screamed as its eyes slowly regenerated.
Red 3, no longer dazzled, continued to flank attack Thetin.
