Yea I found out if you copy and paste you will get the same result in the same post twice.
That natural 20 will get you the rest of the way down without having to make the third check though!
Kierra slides down a muddy hill and then falls down a 20-foot cliff,
The good news is she is now at the bottom of the hill.
(You are at 0 hp. Did you take your 1 hp or 1 skill point for favored class? If not take the hp and be at 1 lol)
ahhh...okay. Note to self: don't cheat by copy/paste
Haha yea let me try something
For Nalun
Yea just name them different and it will work.
Nalun jumps on Yorn's back and rides down on the big guy!
(Lucky natural 20)
(She is stable just knocked out)
As she falls, Kierra lets out an ear-piercing shriek. She lands violently in a crumpled heap from the fall. Unconscious, the delicate girl groans unintelligibly.
Thanks Yorn!
Oh my Nethys! Someone help Kierra.
Nalun rushes to Kierra's side and immediately begins rummaging through his pack.
I know I have it somewhere
Nalun continues mumbling while searching for his Big Book of Boo Boos.
Shalee slips but catches her self.
Then when she is almost finished slips again and catches herself on a tree.
Barely even a scratch!
(Before you continue tell me what you are doing for Kierra.)
"Kierra!!! You godsdamned klutz! Nalun ...what can we do? She's the one that heals!"
(Nalun you have read enough to know that in her present state a night of good rest and she should wake on her own)
Nalun seems on the verge of panic.
I don't....I mean I can't....... I DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT BOOK
After this exclamation Nalun bursts into tears and begins ministrations on Kierra.
[ooc] Assuming Heal can be used untrained and if it can I suggest everyone use the aid another action [/b]
"Yikes, man, she just conked out. Don't ...Gods don't f!%+in CRY!"
In Nalun's panic his hands seem to focus. He deftly gets a healers kit from Kierra's pack and begins to clean, salve, and bandage her wounds. He then takes a strong smelling herb and rubs it under her nose.
Kierra slowly opens her eyes!
(Nice roll! Kierra is at 1 hp)
Her eyes opening slowly, Kierra regains consciousness "Wha...What happened?" then painfully, "AHHH! Gods! My back!"
Kierra obviously struggling and in immense pain, begins a half-hearted attempt to stand up.
"If I can just....."
The pain-wracked girl falls back to the ground. Taking a few deep breaths she attempts to fight off the pain.
Focus, Kierra. Focus!
A wave of warmth shudders through her body, as a pale light moves over her from head to toe.
So, Kierra is ok???? Yorn, she isn't dead!
Nalun shoots Shalee a dirty look and attempts to recover some of his dignity.
An archway of stone is set into the side of a small hill at the bottom of the valley. Moss has overgrown many of the details, but one is still quite clear. The keystone of the arch is carved with a flame symbol with a stylized rune in the middle. Beyond the archway is a darkened tunnel that leads to a pair of massive wooden doors, one of which is slightly ajar.
A pair of horses and a trio of ponies lie slaughtered next to the archway, each corpse still tied to a post set into the ground nearby. A swarm of flies hangs lazily in the air above them.
Guys.... I'm gonna be ill..... Nalun turns away from the carnage and catching a whiff of the carrion begins to retch. After several instances of upchuck.....
I wonder who those horses are for....I'm sure that Holgast didn't do this. Something isn't right here.
Nalun casts detect magic and focuses on the entrance.
(How far away do you want to be? Id say when you are at the bottom of the hill you are no more then 50 yards away.)
You sense no magic.
Nalun looks to ensure that Kierra is well and then points at the entrance.
Ok guys, no illusions there. Something killed those animals and we need to get in there to light the torch.
When Kierra awakens and sits up, Maggie is standing over her. Mark is standing a few feet away, trying not to look concerned. Maggie promptly licks Kierra in the face when she regains her strength and bumps her massive head against Kierra's before climbing off her. Mark nods to Nalun in acknowledgement of his skills, but the boy's tears-stained face makes him uncomfortable, and he doesn't say anything out loud.
Afterwards, Mark will look curiously at the archway, frowning when he sees the corpses. "Maggie," he whispers to her, "be alert. Something's not right here." Mark draws his greataxe warily as he looks around him and makes his way over to where the horses were tied. He takes in the appearance of the bodies, looking for bite marks or stab wounds, or slashed flesh, wrinkling his nose at the smell.
Nalun continues to detect magic and move forward as Mark and Maggie get closer to the carnage. He is making an effort to control himself but he still seems upset by the blood/guts.
Nalun is definately not going first up there though, He's hoping Yorn or Mark will do that.
Mark: You can tell the animals were killed by mutiple cuts all over their body.
You see what looks to be the body of a humanoid under the carcasses.
Mark calls Yorn over to help him push the horse carcass aside. With the strength of the two together it moves easily.
Mark an Yorn see a very old human skeleton underneath the horses.
Why would someone drag a skeleton outside of the crypt and then kill the horses? It just doesn't make any sense! You think to yourself...
Is the skeleton bearing any armor or weapons? Clothing? How can we tell it's old? Any meat on its bones? Is there blood from the horses on it?
These are all questions that run through Mark's head as he furrows his brow, examining the skeleton.
Be careful Yorn!
Yorn:
The horses were obviously laden with gear and supplies. Searching the packs uncovers one that is still full. Inside are 2 days’ worth of rations, a pair of large, comfortable pillows, a quiver with 10 blunt arrows (as normal arrows, but they only deal nonlethal damage), and 2 pints of lamp oil.
You deftly sneak to the door of the crypt you see nor hear anything worth noting.
Is the skeleton bearing any armor or weapons? It has a rusted chain shirt and a broken scimitar
Clothing? Just scraps of a style from long ago.
How can we tell it's old? From the state if decay.
Any meat on its bones? No
Is there blood from the horses on it? Yes on parts and on the scimitar.
Be careful Yorn!

You do not notice anything more.
Earlier"Nalun, you did a great job. Just ...keep it together, man. You're one of the oldest here. Don't sob in front of girls. Men cry, sure, but don't sob. Thank you for helping Kierra."
Wait, the horse blood is on the scimitars?
Get away from the skeletons. They could be animated!
"What?! Animated skeletons? What the hells is going on here?"
This is so unnatural! What is going on?
Kierra looks visibly uncomfortable at the grisly scene.
A casual glance is all it takes to this skeleton is quite crushed and will not be moving on its own. The only thing left to do is open the large door to the Crypt.
As the heavy doors swing open, the faint light from outside reveals a long chamber with risen platforms on either side. A faded painting of Kassen is on the far wall. The room appears to be the site of a gruesome battle, with two bodies piled in the center and a number of skeletons scattered around. An echoing wail can be heard somewhere in the distance, beyond this foul chamber.
Kierra casts light on the end of her spear, and encourages one of the "larger" party members to take the lead. Following them into the chamber, she listens closely to try and identify the source of the noise and looks around the room inspecting it for danger.
Well, they COULD have been animated.
Nalun roots around in his pack until he finds his book "Undead Undeath and U". He begins reading and moves forward absent mindedly.
Don't look around. It's just a little horse blood. Don't look around...
The rain fall is too loud for you to tell where the sound is comming from. Also you are not far enough into the room to gather any useful information.
That reminds me everyone add 200 XP for superb roleplaying!
