Yorikata - fox |
"I hope that isn't contagious." Yorikata comments to Lanneth, rolling her eyes.
"I'll go and scout a bit around." The 'werefox' turns into fox form and sneaks out to check, what's going on there.
Sneak: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (10) + 19 = 29
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (19) + 9 = 28

Yorikata enters the greenhouse as she moves around she sees lots of different plant life, bamboo from far off Tian Xia, Teak trees from Vurda and vines from the Mwagi Expanse. The sounds of monkeys howling is extra loud in the greenhouse bouncing off trees. Many insects small and not threatening and other small mammals roam around here. As Yori is exploring she finds 2 door on the far side of the room.
This is considered a medium forest, so you will have to spend 2 squares to move 1
Yorikata __ |
Yorikata comes back from her excursion, transforms into human form for ease of conversation and tells the others. "It's a nice place. A lot plants from far places and many interesting animals. On the opposite side is a door like this one."
Lanneth |
Lanneth lets the others lead but as the others move out she follows keeping her eyes open for any danger including in the fog above.

As The party beings to move Forward Dain spots something large start to move, it looks like a Grass mound that Yorikata did notice earlier but becuase she was sneaky it didn't notice her. The Giant Mount of Grass beings to move into an upwards position, 2 long appendages and a large open hole appear in the mound of leaves.

"And some bandages for William. In his current condition, we could throw him as bait and run. But I don't think he is able to stop the thing. And it would be a shame to have him eaten by a tree. He is supposed to be the big guy dealing with such." Yorikata adds.
Yorikata |
Yorikata ushers all back behind the door. Then she closes it and blocks it
(Stick through the handles, lock it, whatever works).
"Shall we camp here, in the corridor? Or does someone want to go back over the lilly pads?"
Lanneth |
Go idea to retreat. That plant will probably only be affected by one of my hexes. And the Night Faries will have no effect on it.
As for sleeping, I can go wherever.
As she talks Lanneth starts burning her spells to heal William up.
Cure Moderate Wounds (Burn Lesser Restoration): 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (1, 8) + 5 = 14
Cure Light Wounds (Burn obscuring Mist): 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
There is anyone else hurt?
Yorikata - fox |
Yorikata turns into fox form and hides away somewhere under Lanneth's stuff for the night. It's a light sleep, knowing there is someone wanting to eat them behind the door. And who knows what else besides the stabby invisible things might jump out.
Taking your comment in discussion for a free peaceful night...
After a surprisingly uneventful night of rest - if night is the right word in this special place - Yorikata wakes again refreshed. She jumps up with the thoughts about how to proceed just babbling out of her mouth. Until she notices, that nothing but cute bark like noises come out.
Yorikata __ |
A short change later she starts anew. "With that tree waiting behind that door, what are we going to do? Can it eat us all? Or will it be full after one? Can that one be cut out again like with the wolf in red riding hood? Should out plan cover the chance that one gets eaten? How can that thing be hurt? Can you stab it from the inside? Why does a tree eat people at all? Can't it be talked out of that?"
Lanneth |
Lanneth looks up from where she was trying to calm Yorkiata down so she can study her spells. But she gives up for the moment in frustration as she turns into a girl again.
Can you really carry the corpse of a big bug given it is on the other side of the lilly pads?
Hmmmm... It's a Plant, do you think we could outrun it or move around it? I didn't think plants move all that much.... Hmm, Ewigga, your order often deals with nature. Is there anything your order can do?
Lanneth |
There are invisible things on the bridge, and fog above the floor. So going up to the bridge may not tell us much, and could be dangerous.
Yorikata __ |
"I could go and scout out where it is. And once I found it, I signal you and run from it. You go around, and we meet at the other door. And if it doesn't work, you come to save me." Yorikata suggests.

Yorikata - fox |
Yorikata takes on the unconspicious fox form and sneaks through the woods, looking out for the special tree.
Stealth: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (12) + 19 = 31
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21

Yorikata moves into the room with out so much as a whisper, the noise of the forest masks her and the shrubbery is big enough that she can move in and out of it. Along her way 30' forward she spots the large mount of leaves watching for the door to open fully.
Are you two stepping out or peeking form a cracked open door?
Lanneth |
Lanneth calls forth the Air Fairies to lift her up.
Then before shooting out the door she calls out.
Are we running or fighting?
She flies off out of the way of the creature.
Note: just to be clear at the start of the day I cast Mage Armor. This round: Standard Flight Hex (Round 1/10) Move: Fly 60) How high is the fog? The goal is to fly up slightly so I'm 15 - 20' above the ground but I only want to be at the lower edge of the fog.

Dain's arrow Strikes true into the large mass over the half tree that covers the door way.
We will just say for now on this side the tree is only so high that it and you guys can see over the railing
