Scepter Tower of Spellgard - Rev's version

Game Master Rev Rosey

Cronin shakes off his own wounds and fatigue to restore Leo and Snaggletooth.

How are you all fixed for surges? Now might be a plausible time to take an extended rest. You've been through the creepers, Barthus, the trap room and the ettercap nightmare since the last one, so enough time has passed.

Oh, ok, then. I thought I was reviving Leo.

Ooops. You did indeed. If so, you have failed to stabilise him and all the weary work is to do again, as I'm pretty sure Leo used his second wind.

Am I up, yet?

I think you're still down. Sitting at 8 surges.

Things have got a mite confused. Entirely my fault as I misread Fairwind's post.

Leo is down and needs stabilising. He cannot have his second wind activated as he's used it. Heal check DC15 to stabilise him.

Fairwind has tried and failed to stabilise Leo. I rolled a death save for Leo of 18, so he's not getting any worse.

Cronin is down and has NOT used his second wind. A DC10 heal check will activate that and put him back on his feet. He has failed one death save.

Snaggle is down and stable. If he recieves any kind of healing, he is back on his feet as that will pull him to 0hp and add a healing surge.

Caine, Brujo and Perigia can all act to save their companions. Do so in any order. If you can get Cronin up, he can help with the healing process.

Caine will help however way he can.

Can I take 10 on the heal checks? IC is really not cooperating.

Brujo looks at the bodies of the fallen, friend and foe. He walks over to the paldin and looks down. "I'm sorry... my friend", his words low so no one overhears him, "My knowledge of healing and tending wounds is poor. I wouldn't want hasten your trip to the reaper"

Not being trained in healing and having a negative to the ability score, it'd be best if I didn't try

"Brujo, keep an eye out for trouble."

Caine will help however way he can.

Can I take 10 on the heal checks? IC is really not cooperating.

I will rule that you can Commander. As your class abilities include some healing powers, I'm happy with that.

Helping Cronin, then Leo then Snaggletooth.

Commander Caine helps Cronin to his feet and moves to see if he can help Leo. Between them the warlord and the shifter restore their comrades and at last it is possible for you all to look at the room and each other and assess your situation.

Cronin - you're back at 10hp and can go and dole out some much needed healing. I'm guessing that's what you're doing. You are all conscious again.

Spending 3 healing surges

Likewise, now at full

Perigia is using two surges and is back up to full health.

29 hp, 1 surge left.

Sorry about that, been unable to post and wasn't able to do so at work (pardon me) only goes to show what happens if I miss two days of posting! Used a lay of hands in the fight with the vampire, used second wind in both the ettercap encounter and the vampire probably down enough that Leo would have to use up his remaining healing surges to go back to full in any case. Will wait for confirmation before updating Leo to 4th though

"Am I alive?" Snaggletooth mumbles as he receives Caine's and Cronin's much needed healing. "I AM ALIVE!" He shouts as he stumbles to rise. "That was too close. We need to be more sneaky. My fault. I rushed in and got caught like fly in eightlegs' web." He thinks for a moment. "Anybody got some food?" Snaggletooth then stretches and starts searching bodies and boxes for food, treasure and whatever else he can find.

perception (d20+9, 24) to scavenger for anything of value or interest. used 5 surges, current hp 40, 2 surges left, I could extended rest.

Snaggletooth

Snaggletooth's explorations turn up some interesting findings. The ettercaps seem to have collected the more usable of their victim's possessions and the kobold quickly amasses a pile of items. Among the more mundane daggers, crossbow bolts and rancid food supplies, he finds a finely crafted suit of hide armour and two gems as well as 123 silver pieces.

He also finds the pathetic remains of three small creatures, wrapped in spider web and left in a corner.

Leo, it looks to me as if you had 4 surges left going into this fight. You used second wind, so that would leave you three. If you use them, you'd be at 33hp but no surges.

how many daggers and crossbow bolts? medium size hide armor? the devil's in the details. any cloaks among the possessions? I would like to get one, even if I have to alter a medium size one.

Snaggletooth, unasked, brings his little pile of items to the center of the group. "Here is treasure from battle. Everyone share spoils." He takes a handful of daggers four, if there are that many and the hide armor if it is small size, one of the gems and 10 silver. He does this in plain sight of everyone, almost like a ritual. As he takes the items he wants, he lifts them and shows them to the others. Then he makes a big show of leaving the rest for the others.

ancient kobold spoils system

The armour is too big for Snaggletooth, as he discovers as he holds it up to himself. The worksmanship is of remarkably high quality and there are open hands worked into the leather, seemingly bestowing something. He find four unbroken daggers, one of which looks to be made of finer craftsmanship.

The crossbow bolts don't appear to be particularly interesting, and indeed most of them are broken. Snaggletooth reckons he can salvage 8 from the mess.

The gems are pretty. Looked at more closely it's clear that they were once a pair of earrings. The fastenings are destroyed, but the stones themselves are agates, worth around 45gp to a jeweller.

Leo, it looks to me as if you had 4 surges left going into this fight. You used second wind, so that would leave you three. If you use them, you'd be at 33hp but no surges.

Okay I wasn't sure myself

Spending one surge to put me at full. 7 surges remaining

I took the four daggers, one gem, and 10 silver. The rest can be divided among yourselves.

Snaggletooth takes the nice looking dagger and the necklace from earlier over to Perigia and says, "Nice fire-lady? Are these magic? I found the necklace on a skeleton I killed in coffin-room. It look nice, but might be magic, too. Can you tell?"

Rev, so no cloak or make-shift cloak?

Snaggletooth continues to look at the contents of the room, even as he asks for Perigia's help.

Snaggletooth

We are not on a deadline here, yes? So let's go on an extended rest.

No deadline. You can take an extended rest.

Didn't we only have an extended rest a little while ago? Before we fought vampire dude?

I believe so

The last extended rest you took was after the encounter with the wraith in the room with the mausoleums.

Since then you have visited the desecrated altar and removed some dark creepers, eliminated Barthus, defused a room full of traps and eradicated a nest of ettercaps. All of this has taken you some time.

In short, it's up to you. You can take an extended rest if you wish to. Leo probably has to as he's down to 0 surges and is one of your major healing sources.

Rev

extended rest is fine with me

Snaggletooth

Cronin is ready for an extended rest. Curious, he examines the armor to see if he can learn anything about it.

Brujo passes Perigia and looks as if he needs to ask her something. But shys away.

Laying out a bedroll he removes his hide armor and rests

Eladrin may not sleep, but Brujo comes close

Cronin turns the armour over in his hands and finally understands its purpose.

Cronin shares his finding with the rest. "I confess I find this chainmail I have been wearing rather confining, but I certainly don't have any particular claim on this armor."

Does anyone else wear Hide?

I can wear it, but I already have magic leather.

Brujo opens and eye and looks toward the shifter "If now one else wants it I wouldn't mind. This thing has been with me forever, but I think it's usefullness in near the end", he pats his worn out armor.

Can Cronin have Brujo's old armor? His Dex is now high enough that non-magical hide is an improvement over non-magical chain

1d20+11=16 on Arcana to determine if any of the items are magical.

Yup

Rev

Brujo

Perigia recognises the dagger as magical.

Extended rest for you chaps from the sound of it.

Cronin examines Brujo's doffed armor. "I would say well-worn, but still with some life. If you care to wear our new find, I would find the broken-in armor freeing, if you have no objection."

Snaggletooth has been watching Perigia examine the two items and when he sees her expression change, he comes back up and says, "Fire-lady, did you find out about my stuff? Magic or no?"

"The dagger is. It will guide your hand and help you hit better," Perigia says. See the spoiler Rev posted for me.

"Thanks, Fire-Lady. Why don't you keep necklace? It look nicer on you." Snaggletooth smiles at Perigia. He takes the magic dagger and spins it in his hand. He looks at his shortsword and carefully holsters it on his back. Then he dons his new robe, after brushing it off and washing out any stains.

He looks around and says aloud, "I will take first watch. Who should I wake up for next one?"

Cronin examines Brujo's doffed armor. "I would say well-worn, but still with some life. If you care to wear our new find, I would find the broken-in armor freeing, if you have no objection."

Brujo shakes his head, "It's been good to me, I hope it's good to you aswell"

To follow up with Snaggletooth's question, who is watching after him? Enemy territory.
