Shadows of Eternal Winter (Inactive)

Game Master Feral

So anyone fire-themed. Gotcha.

Alright guys, let's get this show on the road.

After choosing his share of new equipment, Bjorn tracks down his new companions. Eager to begin their quest, the grizzled old ulfen bristles with youthful energy. "Mab's blessings have been many but I'd say it's time we be moving. Winter won't vanquish itself and I'm not getting any younger."

Not quite. A fire flinging evocation wizard would not count. He is not intrinsically bound to fire.He make a choice to use it. If that makes sense? Besides your not gonna see a whole lot that could for that sorry. And most things have cold resistance but its still a good sword.... and you can always put out a volcano with it.... >.> <.<

Yes.

"The old one has a point. If we are finished here, we should get moving."

"They required certain...things in return. Nothing with them is ever free. They could want your first memory or the color of your hair. They could ask for anything, and if you agree...well...you live with the consequences of your actions."

"Understood Alex. I guess it will depend on what things in our life we are willing to risk trading away" - she offers a grim smile - "I'll keep that in mind"

Moving through the stockpiled gear, her attention is immediately caught by a well crafted cloak, designed in tones of earth and grey - picking it up as soon as she is informed it will add to her magical resistances. Further along, a pair of exquisite bracers practically seem to call out at her - picking them up, her mind fills with a rush and the thrill of the hunt, much as if her senses took a predatory tinge to them. Donning the item only intensifies the feeling, and the elven woman smiles.

All set to go.

"Agreed" - Aldiran nods - "Time seems to be of the essence, if we want to turn the tide of events"

So....

Was waiting on Alex and someone to post that you were stepping through. Will post in the morning. Note though that no one has actually gone up to the portal and wall through.

Aric will stride on forth through the portal.

Alex nods to Aldiran. "They're dangerous; very dangerous to bargain with. Makes sure you hear every word they're saying, and understand words for them are their magic."

Once they're all talked out, he too will step through the portal.

Aldiran follows her companions in silence through the portal.

You all come out on a hillside overlooking looking a small village quite some ways away. As you watch you can see a blizzard brewing as the cold begins to seep deep into your bones. You realize it will take several hours to reach the Village in this snow. Hours that you might never make it through given the coming blizzard.

"We need to find somewhere to wait out this blizzard."

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26

"The blizzard is no danger", Bjorn explains with confidence.

Mythic endure elements should cover this pretty well.

Fine, I guess we could take the easy way out. :)

"If you say so."

Bjorn chants and clutches his holy symbol, praying for Gozreh's protection from the cruel cold.

Spending two mythic power. One for Inspired Spell and another to make it Mythic.

He gasps as his normally minor ward to protect him from the elements becomes a literal aegis against the blizzard.

"Mab's gift was potent indeed."

Aric can feel his normally cold resistant body strengthen itself even more against the elements. "Let us go to the village then." Aric says leading the party.

"We need to find somewhere to wait out this blizzard."

[dice=Perception]1d20 + 6

Shielding her eyes from the snow, Aldiran was about to answer Aric when Bhorn spoke - with almost nothing more than a few mere words of prayer, it was as if the string winds pelting them were nothing more than a mere breeze - "Your God answers your prayers as if he walked right beside you Bjorn - thank you for keeping us safe" - she speaks in a somewhat awed tone.

Somewhere out in the blizzard snows, a voice calls out, seemingly in vain to his sudden disappeared companions.

"Aric! Aldiran! Alexandyr! Anybody!?" The stout dwarf called out in the loudest voice he has.

The sudden disappearance after he felt like he had fallen through ice and snow himself left him dumbstruck. Suddenly this snowstorm was upon him and no friendly face in sight. He wondered if he would ever see a normal landscape again, let alone the faces of his old comrades.

Blast didn't expect it to get so cold so soon. Should have asked Gorum for protection against these elements. He thinks to himself as he shivers a little as he stumbles around in the snow, unsure of where he's going.

"Thorgrim?!" Aric is surprised to hear the dwarf's voice. He assumed he was lost like the others. "We're over here!" He calls out.

Alex the one head band was already bought and yes you can easily get a mw chainshirt. Even something similar to mithral

Im gonna let you guys get Thorgrim protected and move towards towards town I have the next encounter ready.

Good with me.

I figured that the headband would be a long shot. The shirt sounds great. However we want to do that.

Thorgrim stands still as he thought he heard something or someone call back over the howling of the wind.

Taking the time to listen he hears the same voice calling him again and starts to jostle towards the sound.

Several minutes later a slightly frosty dwarf appears before the others covered in snow and ice. "Am I glad I found you here, don't know what happened but being suddenly dropped into a blizzard... Who's the new guy?" Thogrim asks as he sees Bjorn's face after recognising the other familiar three.

"It is a long story, but he is here to help. But we could use your sword arm in any case. We need to get to that village."

"Aye, my sword arm you'll have. But what village do you mean? I can't hardly seee anything through this blasted snowdrift."

Aric points to the one in the distance. "Over there."

Aric will start walking in that direction. Are we waiting on someone?

For bjorn to cast again. Not sure if he has four mythic power to do all four of you anyway.

Well Inspired Spell gives +2 to the caster level and the mythic spell gets 1 per caster level so one casting is 4 people in this case. But it costs him 2 mythic power so Thorgrim might be on his own in this case. Or you could let it slide so we can move on.

Bjorn spends two more mythic power to enable the latecomer.

Thorgrim, I suggest you look into options to take care of yourself. When I joined this game there was only supposed to be four of us.

Yeah, seems I'm more trouble for the group than help at this point. I'll get Endure Elements studided in myself for the next day.

Okay didnt know it still gave plus two. Was told that was cut in the final draft. So we are good. Sorry all been busy and havent had time to aduit all your sheets and double check abilities just yet.

As you travel through the snow unhindered and unfrozen. You see in the distance a snow sled and team be I attacked by what appear to be gain blood mantises

"We should help them. They will not survive against beasts such as those." Aric draws his blade and rushes towards the attack.

"Agreed" - Aldiran adds, moving along after her companion.

Gimme an attack roll you guys can charge from way outside their range of perception.

Bjorn calls on Govreh's might to bolster the party.

Bless.

Aric charges forward, letting his rage overtake him.

Charge, PA, Rage, Bless: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 10 + 1 = 30

1d8 + 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + (4) + 9 = 19

Confirming: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 10 + 1 = 18

Extra?: 1d8 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

Thorgrim charges after Aric, swinging his greatsword when he arrives at the nearest enemy.

He swings at the same creature if he can and it's alive, else a new one.

Attack, Charge, Bless: 1d20 + 5 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 5 + 2 + 1 = 24
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 3) + 4 = 9

AC 16 until next turn

It shakes itself looking angrily at Aric. It is obviously heavily wounded wounded its exoskeleton cracked and rent in places from the heavy wounds inflicted upon it. It lashes out against Aric with its two arms and its mandibles.

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Confirm 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Two claw hits triggers rend. One claw is a hit.

Cruise just got a table will post dmg in a bit.

Me mind the cr2 confirm the rolls changed. Still gets the rend though.

1d6 + 2 + 1d6 + 2 + 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 2 + (1) + 2 + (4) + 3 = 17 dmg to Aric. Each d6 set is a separate hit.

Alex grins, seeing the opportunity to try out newly acquired skills. He also charges forward into the fray, with his short sword.

Charge: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 5 + 2 = 8
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Bjorn touches Aldiran with a bit of divine guidance.

”We must drive these creatures off.”

+1 on your next attack.

Aric growls as the creature draws blood. He attempts to finish off the creature.

PA, Rage, Bless: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

1d8 + 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + (3) + 9 = 14

Thorgrim attacks the creature before him with another blow of his sword.

Attack, Greatsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 122d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 1) + 4 = 11

Stepping forward with her companions, Aldiran nods at Bjorn's blessing - "Thank you" - and fires an arrow at the closest mantis - "What are these creatures?"

Knowledge (Nature?): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

Longbow Attack: 1d20 + 8 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 8 + 1 = 27
Damage if it hits: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Its one really really big as in large size preying mantis.

Between Thorgrim's blow and Aldiran's arrow the creature falls. The travelers look at you warily. Ho and thanks for the felling kf the creature but who might you strangers be. And why do you reek of magic?

As a favor if everyone could put their mythic point count in their stat line please.

"We are travelers who saw someone in need." Aric says ignoring the second question. "We are headed to that village."

Noting Aric's wound, Bjorn frowns and studies the waylaid travelers.

"Bring your wounded forward. I will ask for Gozreh's aid."

Channel x3: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 2) = 10
