DaWay's Rise of the Rune Lords - Burnt Offerings (Inactive)

Game Master DaWay

Alric takes another shot at the half-elf

to hit: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
dmg: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Cerin slices at the goblin attacking Blythe with his scimitar, hoping to finish it off so he will be able to heal her before it's too late.

Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

edit: confirm crit: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 211d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Radbar swings at the Goblins neck

Arabeth screams in pain as she is again burned by liquid fire. Staggering away from the helish Goblin and muttering a prayer.

Cure Light Wounds:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Sorry for wasting a spell upon my self, but the last attack almost dropped me again. :(

Blythe takes the dogslicer in the side, groaning, before the half-elf kicks her to the ground. She lies there, still.

*Reads Blythe's crunch* (O_o) Argh! I am double sorry for not taking the move action to get to Blythe's side and aid her and instead was selfish and healed Arabeth. :(

Alric's arrow hits the half-elf again. Cerin firmly plants the scimitar into the goblin causing him to fall over limp and lifeless. Radbar takes off the goblins head that was attacking Arabeth.

Goblin 1 DEAD
Goblin 2 DEAD

Goblin 3 hurls molten glassware at Alric 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (14) - 1 = 13 1d3 ⇒ 1

Goblin 4 DEAD
Goblin 5 DEAD
Goblin 6 DEAD

Half-Elf (21 hp) moves forward and launching himself at Arabeth
1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 2 = 15 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Arabeth, though possibly weeping in pain, still has enough sense as the larger humanoid figure comes hurtling at her to step aside and raise her sword for some well deserved retributive smack down.

Hah! Only getting a 15 means the son-of-a-beetch missed!

Possible AoO:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20

Dam Roll:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Normal Att:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Normal Dam:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Confirm:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

Dam Roll:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

She spreads her battle damaged wings as wide as she can, her anger, pain and the hatred at the injuries suffered by her allies visually manifesting in her postures.

And looking at Arabeth's rolls...she damn well near takes his head clean off! (^_^)

who is still up besides Arabeth and Alric?

Seeing Arabeth in melee with the half-elf, turns his bow on the goblin that threw glass at him.

swift action to activate archaeologist's luck

to hit goblin: 1d20 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 2 + 1 = 16

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Radbar will step up to the half elf engaged with arabeth and try to flank with her.

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 191d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

With his foe taken care of, and the others ganging up on the half-elf, Cerin turns around to see Blythe crumpled on the ground. He rushes over, pours life energy into her and hopes he's not too late...

Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

Blythe remains unconcious.

All adversaries are now lying motionless on the ground, as well as one of your own, Blythe.

Cerin binds Blythe's wounds as best he can and calls out to Arabeth.

"She's hurt very badly. I have done all I can. We need to get both of you back to the temple."

Heal: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Arabeth struggles over and knees beside her fallen comrade, reaching out closing her eyes and whispering something under her breath.

Cure Light Wounds:1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Araneth opens her eyes and looks to see the results of her invocation...

"Um...Cerinnibert? I don't think you're supposed to wrap the bandages around her throat....." Arabeth comments quietly...

Noting how well our masterful Gnome has rolled with his healing skill. (^_~)

Alric walks over to Arabeth and the others to see how Blythe is doing. When he sees her well-tended to, and knowing there is nothing he can really do, he turns his attention to the body of the fallen half-elf and casts a quick detect magic on him and his belongings.

I feel so useless. I have got to learn how to cure wounds like Arabeth just did so I can be of more help when it's needed.

Blythe still lies there, unconcious, but breathing.

Arabeth kneels wearily besides Blyhtes prone from.

We...might return to said 'Rusty Dragon'? To recoup..and regroup?" Arabeth suggests, then indicates Blythe.

"Blythe needs more time to heal...something which I think some of also need to do?" The after effects of the burning and cutting Arabeth has received at the hands of the Goblins and the Half-Elf beginning to take their toll upon her.

"Oh...Ameiko..." She sighs...

Radbar will begin to carefully search the glass works for Ameiko since she was suppose to be here.

"Um...Cerinnibert? I don't think you're supposed to wrap the bandages around her throat....." Arabeth comments quietly...

Cerin looks closer at Blythe, then starts removing and re-binding her wounds.

"There was just so much blood... It's hard to tell exactly where she was hurt." he says sheepishly.

"We...might return to said 'Rusty Dragon'? To recoup..and regroup?" Arabeth suggests, then indicates Blythe.

"I think both of you might need more than just rest. Perhaps we should return to the temple? I think the good Father might still owe us a favor." he says, examining Arabeth's wounds.

Heal: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Sigh. can't catch a break.

Alric, after casting detect magic and stripping the downed half-elf of all he has of seeming value, magical or not, moves over to the others. "I don't know much about healing arts, but I can probably wrap a bandage or two."

heal: 1d20 ⇒ 12

ok, not so great, but better than 5, lol

"Perhaps Cerin has a point, we should visit the temple before going to the Dragon."

there is a vial of liquid of tsuto, a nice composite shortbow, a ring, a set of exquisite thieves tools, a pair of silver earrings, a journal, 6 pouches of gold dust, 8 pouches of silver dust, and 10 platinum pieces.

Ameiko is located in once of the cells, she unconscious and badly wounded.

Upon the discovery of Ameiko, Arabeth gasps in shock and horror at what has happened to her friend.

"We should take this nefarious character to the authorities and Ameiko back to some where safe so that she can rest and recover." Arabeth suggests.

I also seem to have not put in spells know etc. How careless. Shall fix and update that as soon as possible. Much appologies. *Bows*

Alric does his best to bandage poor Ameiko with great discretion and respect for her privacy of course.

heal check: 1d20 ⇒ 18

Once the 'goods' are gathered up and Ameiko ready for transport along with the unconscious half-elf as well, Alric sets out with the others to return, perhaps to the temple first to acquire healing for Ameiko before taking the captive to the authorities... unless someone else has a better idea that is.

All "captives" are dead. With your expert care she does open her eyes and looks at the group.

well darn, was hoping we just knocked the half elf unconscious... oh well, I will amend my post.

Alric does his best to bandage poor Ameiko with great discretion and respect for her privacy of course.

heal check: 1d20 ⇒ 18

Once the 'goods' are gathered up and Ameiko ready for transport, Alric is ready to set out with the others to return, perhaps to the temple first to acquire healing for Ameiko unless someone else has a better idea that is.

When Ameiko opens her eyes, he gives her an embarrassed little smile. "Welcome back to the living, Ameiko. You're hurt pretty bad. I'm sure we can get you healed at the temple unless you'd rather go elsewhere. Do you feel up to telling us what happened here?"

Arabeth does glare at Alric, though only for a moment.

"Such questions can wait until Ameiko is safe and sound back at the 'Dragon'..." She points out.

"Ameiko has been through a terrible time, she should have a chance to rest and recover first." She explains, hoping to help Alric understand the trauma Amieko has been put through. She smiles to both reassure Amieko and soften her earlier countenance towards Alric.

Even the Half-Elf? That is a pity...

She looks up weakly No... wait... I came... to get... my father. Reaching out at whomever is closest to her/carrying her.

"Don't get up, you have to rest! We will find him, don't you worry." Cerin reassures her quickly.

"Someone should take her and Blythe back while the rest search for her father. Arabeth, I know you would like to stay with your friend. Alric, Radbar, one of you would probably be able to manage carrying Blythe better than I could."

We know what has happened to her Father. Do we not?

Yes you do. He was the masterpiece displayed in the forge.

Ouch! :( We'll have to be careful and diplomatic and sch with poor Ameiko. Are we aware of any connections between Ameiko and the Half-Elf? I apologize for forgetting if there is/was/might be any....Wasn't something mentioned in the note?

The half-elf, Tsuto, is Ameiko's half-brother. We learned it here.

Cerin takes a good look at the forge. "Oh. Right. Well, we better get these two to where they can get some rest. Is there anything else here that might give us some clues as to what's going on?"

After a quick look around, Cerin will take a look at the Journal while they escort Blythe and Ameiko back to the church.

(We were going there, right?)

Sounds good. Getting poor Ameiko out of here for the moment would seem like the best thing to do.

as you leave Ameiko insists forcefully, though quite pleasantly that she will not be leaving to go to any temple before she finds her father.

in case you are wondering she is staggering and leaning on walls for support.

ooc. she is at -2 hp.

Alric looks to the others and shrugs... whispers... "Best let her know now, we'll not get her to leave otherwise."

Arabeth nods at Alirc's words and then slowly and carefully tries to comfort her friend as she delivers the bad/sad news.

Diplomacy:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19

Alric attempts to aid Arabeth while she breaks the bad news to Ameiko, buffering the gruesome details as best he can.

diplomacy aid arabeth: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

Radbar will tend to blythe while they break the news to Ameiko.

She breaks down and begins to cry. She insists on seeing him before you leave to go to the temple, upon seeing him she insists that he is taken so that he may have a proper burial. Ultimately the news was broken was well as can be expected.

Blythe feels tended to...you naughty Paladin. :)

Alric will set about preparing his body for transport, very carefully and with great respect for her feelings, as much as possible. When it's time to go, he'll ask someone stronger than himself to do the honors of carrying him (as dropping him along the way would be really really bad.)

Now hush you flirty gunslinger--you are suppose to be unconscious

Radbar will carry the half-elf if you all can carry blythe. He is less likely to do something he may have to atone for later than

Alric does his best to lift Blythe and carries her over one shoulder, moving along slowly as the group heads for the temple (poor bard only has a 10 str after all, lol).

Arabeth has but a Str of 11.

Arabeth does he best to help Ameiko back to town.

Cerin helps Alric carry Blythe, surprising the bard with a strength that belies his small size.

The tiny little gnome beats both of you with a Str of 12! ;)

*Feels Cerinnibert's well toned muscles* Nice...but I do prefer lovers to fighters...jus' sayin'. (^_~)

You arrive at the temple and Father Zantus is there. He waves you in hurriedly and has you place them upon a dais that is open to the sky and gather around holding hands. With that he channels the power of his goddess filling everyone around the temple with renewed vigor as if they had just woken from a good nights sleep and dreamed pleasant dreams. Everyone heal 2d6 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4 and if you worship Desna gain an additional 1d6 ⇒ 1, Desnan if this takes you over your limit gain it as temporary hp for the next 3 hours.

With that both ladies awaken, there wounds sealing themselves.

Arabeth squeezes Ameiko's and Blythe's hands in a show of friendship/comradely. (^_^)

As the healing power of the Goddess washes over her, Arabeth gently rustles her wings, the better to shift them into a tidier/more comfortable state.

"Ah....to have a good bath after the days events..." She sighs.
