Stella Lucem Caelum |
Stella looks to see if the book she had been reading through earlier was in the stack. If so she would grab that one.
"Why don't we all share the weight? A book or two won't hurt me to carry around."
Turning to Corrine she smiled brightly. "Its okay. If I don't want to answer a question I won't and tell you my limits. That was a straight forward question and didn't bother me."
Thinking real quick.
"Hey, I am going to grab something as a weapon real quick. I know those are mostly decretive but I am sure I can get a couple of swings out of one."
She would dash back downstairs heading into the weapon and armor room doing a quick glance around for something heavy she could use similar to a club or mace.
Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
It took her a bit to realize her halo wasn't on as she stubbed her toe against some armor. Cursing, because no one could hear it, she would turn on her halo and look around again.
Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21 Only if you allow a second roll
Asbques Umbra Caelum |
Asbques keeps eyeing the doll with mild interest and taps her foot, waiting for the other kids to get organized, as she does she sorts through the books and loads herself up with any of them that seem actually important, disregarding the rest.

Day 1, Saturday Early Evening, About to leave the building
Stella finds a short sword; it is heavy, but not made of strong steel. It functions as a normal Short Sword, until a natural 1 or a Natural 20 is rolled on an attack, and then it gains the “broken” condition. The Clubs Aureth made require two hands to use. Will you all carry a couple of books, or will you try to navigate the sled through the door once it is unloaded? Oscar will take one of the Clubs Aureth offers
The door is finally opened, and what you see beyond is disquieting. The street is dark, but it is not the darkness of night. It is a shadowy, pale darkness. It is the kind of darkness that can only be brought about by powerful magic. From your own sense of the passage of time, the sun should still be up, and yet outside of the building it is as if a perpetual twilight is being challenged by the light of the sun that is still in the sky causing everything you can see to appear in tones of sepia, grey, pale yellow, and charcoal. But it is not just the absence of light that you notice. Things seem distorted, bent, twisted. If you stare at the doors of the building across the street you can almost swear that you see them moving, swelling to one side slightly and then shrinking back again, and then all it takes is a slight movement of your head, a glance in another direction, and things seem to look normal again, though still bathed in the muted colors of a shroud of darkness.
There is no sign of any living thing up and down the street, and there is the smell of fires burning somewhere not too far away.
Once the group moves into the street, Oscar Corrine inches close to Asbques until the doll’s shoulder is touching her hip and the doll says
Aureth Devorle |
Aureth will move to the middle of the group, clutching the stack of books that he can carry as best he can. He struggles to keep up with the group, but thankfully he's not really carrying anything, otherwise he would really be in trouble.
Stella Lucem Caelum |
I think we are carrying what books we can.
Stella looks at them all the quiet of the street causing her to whisper. "I will lead. I won't turn on my halo because that will put a target on us. Aureth in the middle, keep watch as we go. Asbques, watch my back please." She said making sure her halo was turned off as she slowly started making her way to the south streets to head west to Shaker's Bridge.
The more she looked at the warping magic the more she shivered. 'Spirits above protect and guide us on our journey. We will need you help.'
As disquieting as this was the long cry in the crypt had helped get rid of some stress so all she had to worry about was keeping everyone save. Books in one arm. A sword in her right hand she would move forward keeping an eye out for danger.
Asbques Umbra Caelum |
Following her sister she strokes the dolls hair, "I always did like playing with dolls." she whispers with a grin.
The twisting and warping fascinates her and she feels a giddy thrill so much power. I want it!
She can feel the bead in her pocket and feels a rush as she scans the area looking for anything that might threaten her sister.

Day 1, Saturday Evening, the city south of the river
When Asbques strokes Oscar’s hair, the doll smiles, leans her head into Asbques’ hand, and makes a contended purring like sound.
The three students and the Doll follow the streets they know well. These streets are south of the campus, and as such every student knows the shops, taverns, and hotels that dot this part of the city. Behind them, to the east, they know is the largest city park, Saint Banoor’s Green.
They stay close to the buildings and move westward. Soon they pass the main buildings of the City government, the courthouse, and the two large temples. Once they reach the temples, they know that it is time to turn toward the north, and toward the river, and the bridges that cross it.
The city has five scenic, well known, and elegantly designed bridges, each with a unique history and attraction to tourist. Shaker’s bridge, so named as it was designed by famous architect Nadine Shaker, is a narrow, but sturdy bridge with decorative metal railings along the sides.
When Stella spots the Tulip and Keg Bar, one of the best taverns in the city, she knows she cannot go any further west, or risk having to double back along the river, which does not seem like a good idea as travelling the boulevards that parallel the river on the north and south sides, will make them very easy to spot. She halts the group, and listens for sounds, but the city is eerily quiet.
Cautiously rounding the Bar, on her right, onto Michaels Quay road, she is stopped by the sudden scene before her.
Before her, not twenty feet away is a group of the most hideous creatures she has ever seen in her life, Littering the ground around these short ugly men are the bodies of several humans or humanoids, hacked into pieces, and the street is running with blood that in the strange twilight looks dark, brown, and surreal. The small men are green, have huge heads, with mouths full of sharp pointy teeth, their arms are long and gangly, and they carry oversized cleavers, and fat bladed scimitars. Some of the green men carry torches.
The strange green men are quiet, seem to be standing still, and all have their attention focused on the building to the east of them, just to the north and on the party’s right. On the front of this building the students see a sickening sight. It is Mistress Lucinda, she is obviously dead, her arms and legs broken and twisted into grotesque shapes, her head stretched but not separated from her body, and blood covers her clothing. She has been “nailed” to the door of a building. You all know the building as the “Mission of Delights” though that is not what its real name is. It is a building used as a half-way house for unfortunate individuals who have fallen out of the “trades” of entertaining clients, as well as some sort of religious mission and/or temple (those who run the mission keep their secrets close, but will share them with people who are tolerant of “different” lifestyles).
Above the door, above a small fabric like awning there is a small ledge, and above this a colored glass window.
On his hands and knees, on the ledge above the vicious little green men, is a man, or at least it looks like a man, and he is obviously in danger. If the Goblins set the building on fire, this man will either have to jump down into the street, and face the Goblins, or stay on the ledge and most like be burned alive.
You can roll initiative, but you have surprise. You make take a standard or move action now, before I roll initiative for the Goblins. There are Seven of them
Stella Lucem Caelum |
Stella looked at the scene in horror. Her body shuddered as a feeling of revulsion and hatred filled her. How dare they do this?! These people were innocent!" Absques knew that shudder. It meant her sister was angry.
Part of her screamed it was to many and she shifted into a defensive stance as she tried to gauge the situation and then put down the books stealthily. Then cast acid splash. This is barring anyone else doing something that would cause her not to attack. Like sis charming them somehow.

Surprise Round…
Asbques reacts almost instinctively, and flings her hand toward the Goblins. A bolt of air frozen in the shape of an arrow shoots across the street and strikes one of the Goblin’s in the back.
Stella examines the scene before her, getting caught up in troubling thoughts of the senseless brutality. Her instincts tell her that the monsters she sees before her are beyond redemption, the vilest of things imaginable. She looks around the area, searching for something, or somewhere to hide, but realizes she is standing near a wall, and there is nothing to hide behind. Desperately she summons a congealed orb of caustic goo that floats above her open hand. She throws it toward the Goblin’s but it falls short of a target.
The strange man on the ledge shouts for help as the Goblins begin to realize they are not alone, while one of them is still taunting him, he smiles, speaks an arcane phrase, and hopes that he can capture this one’s attention, at least for a moment.
Will Save: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (10) - 1 = 9
The Goblin, though angry, stands still for a moment, staring at the strange man on the ledge
Aureth takes a cautious step back, turns and gently sets the books he is carrying down on the ground next to the wall.

The Goblins, confused by the sudden appearance of the students howl with rage and charge toward them swinging small swords

The charmed Goblin turns slowly, lowering his head, his mouth spreading into a lacivious grin. With one hand it reaches into its crude pants, and then it appears as if the hand is moving quickly as the Goblin begins walking slowly toward Asbquez

Asbques – 14

Round 1, wrap up
Asbques dodges to the side, and then notices another Goblin acting peculiar, and coming her way. At first it seems that this other Goblin is grinning and touching itself in a inappropriate way, but as the thing comes closer it scrunches up its face and speaks in a foreign tongue
Something about the way the foul little creature cackles as he speaks, fills Asbques with and uneasy feeling. She doesn’t really understand what this second attacker has in mind, and so she shifts her focus back to the danger in front of her. Quickly remembering her lessons, Asbques speaks an incantation and she feels her hands tingle with magic. She lunges toward her attacker intending to just get a finger on him, but the small Goblin is too quick for her, this round.
Aureth stumbles, instinctively reaching to put his hand over the cut, he shakes off his pain, and then tries to summon a missile of acid. He has done this before, in the classroom, and his skill with the spell is perfect, it is only when he realizes that he has never had to try that hard to aim at a target, especially one that is moving, that he realizes he has not practiced enough. When he throws the missile it sails over the Goblin’s head
Stella has never practiced combat like this, but something about the weight and balance of the decorative sword reminds her of a lacrosse stick, and she swings with both hands in a wide low arc. The blade is not sharp, but it is still made of metal, and it is heavy, and the blow strikes the Goblin on the side of the head. She isn’t immediately sure what she has done, but the Goblin is knocked off his feet, and sent tumbling. Its weapon flies out of its hand as the Goblin tumbles over and comes to land on its face. When blood begins to flow onto the street from the Goblin’s head, and the thing is as still as the paved stones it lies on, Stella realizes she has killed for the first time.
Oscar isn’t sure what she should do. She looks away just as Stella strikes a Goblin with a sword, spinning around in place she desperately searches to find Asbques. When Oscar sees a foul minded Goblin lecherously rushing toward the dark haired girl, even as she spars with an attacker of her own, fear and anger swell up inside of her.

Stay away from her you bastards! Oscar screams as she charges the lecherous Goblin and tries to bash it with the leg of the table that Aureth had given her.

Struggling to keep the attacker in front of her at bay, Stella defends herself, and at the same time tries to throw a ball of magical acid at Asbques’ attacker, but the effort proves to complicated for the young girl.

Stella ignores the goblin attacking her and tries desperately to help her sister, but she cannot control the missile she fires from her hand any better than Asbques can.

Manny stands, carefully, on the ledge and takes out a longbow, and slowly draws an arrow. He tracks the lagging goblin for a moment, and then lets the arrow fly. It strikes the fleeing goblin in the back of the neck and the little monster tumbles headlong in the street until it lies sprawled, dead at the end of the block
Asbques and Stella launch a pair of missiles, one of ice and the other of acid at the other goblin, and though both strike the fleeing goblin, the monster only stumbles, while he runs, but recovers his balance, and turns to the west, when he reaches the end of the block where the river runs through this part of the city.

I’m glad you are safe. I didn’t, couldn’t stand to see what that thing was trying to do to you. It was awful.
When Stella inquires about Oscar’s wounds, Oscar smiles and says, I’d take a thousand and a thousand more wounds just like these if it could put me in the path of any harm meant for the two of you. Thank you, I think I’ll be alright if we can rest a moment.
Just then Oscar notices the body of the Lucinda hanging on the wall.
Oh, dear, dear, Gods and Angels from the bright planes, that poor man, look what they’ve done to him. It’s just horrible, no one should suffer that kind of indignity.
Even though there are others lying dead in the street, some mutilated, lying in pools of blood and things best left unmentioned. It is Lucinda that seems to have been subjected to the worst, and wait!
