The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

Sheess is found chilling out on a rock... and is scooped up easily

Sorun rushes back... "We are going to a temple! Come on!" He seems to be fairly bouncing with energy

Sheess inwardly sighs, and sends a message to Ryleh.

Ryleh, I am going to be gone for... a while, perhaps a rain check is in order for that next trip...

Once Shaypeer is set free, Silinrul nods a farewell to the others in the SIM room. "I believe I will go and find my sister, let her know what has happened here. Thank you for your assistance"

With that, the Lycan leaves and attempts to find Jaiye.

1d20 + 29 ⇒ (13) + 29 = 42 Perception

1d20 + 34 ⇒ (19) + 34 = 53 Survival

"That is not going to happen," she said fiercely. "You are going to be fine and you can make your own apologies."

She hit a different button on her headband. "Ryo, the team in town has discovered that the townsfolk are affected by the virus from the girl we have in quarantine. Some of it must have escaped us last night. They're very aggressive and may or may not be alive. You need someone working on examining her right now. Tyrrin says that most of their team is infected as well."

Reminder to Ryo: Vare, Nala, and Ryo are standing right outside the door and Nanami just left. Nala is probably the only qualified person currently available to examine the quarantined girl.

"Do not be as reckless as I have been, Professor. If it comes down to it, can the Harbinger isolate this with it's weaponry? It will be horrible, but at this rate, all of Agartha will be in danger if we let it spread. Our waterbender is going to attempt to cleanse the virus - but that might not end the danger. We need a cure." she relayed over the comm, glancing at Dom for his part with a nod.

"We can worry about the town's infrastructure after we save the people. Houses are replacable - people are much more difficult to return."

settro scoops up a pebble and concentrates. The pebble suddenly cascades into a flood from his hand, knocking him down and sending water eveywhere. He uses his tail to push himself back up, shaking a little from the effort.
"Good enough, Dom?"

Ehos just blinked at the revelation that Kitty had been murdered the previous night. 'Is that what you meant last night? She's alright right? They were able to bring her back? We only got part of the message. That's horrible. Anthony, Jaiye, even Kitty. Damn.' His own problems seemed somewhat smaller in comparision to all the pain and death that had been dealt in the past 24 hours.' 'Maybe Kara can wait until we track down the b+@*~ that attacked the school.'

Lang climbs up and stows Midori's stuff on Simba's saddle. Thanks Midori. he says acknowledging the message from Ignace but not dwelling on the subject.

Leaping off Simba and floating back to the ground. Thanks also for riding with me. he smiles, trying to reassure her everything is alright.

Have you ever flown before? the view from the sky is beautiful. the air is fresh and crisp, its like all of the problems of the world go away. Lang keeping the subject of Ignace and the previous events of the day out of thier mind.

"Hai! Otousama can fly, Lang-kun. My father." she corrects, still occasionally using her native language as a simple reflex. "It is very exposed in the sky though, there's nowhere to hide if you need to." she says practically, and then approaches Simba and bows to the great beast deeply, observing her own manner of respect.

Simba nod as though it understands Midori's intentions.

Lang looks a bit confused at the moemnt. going up beside Midori.

I think He likes you. Simba knows we are friends. Lang says.

Lang seems a touch concerned about something. the tone of his voice is a bit apologetic.

Once Grim and Mrs Blackscales arrive, and Sorun returns we can leave

Repp, the Bleached wrote:

"So, what is your plan for the remainder of the day?" the gnome asks conversationally while returning to his meal.

"Nothing, really. Why?"

"I'm still pretty new here and trying to get a sense of how people pass their time. Myself, I like talking to people. Anyone and everyone. They're all so subtly unique. It's fascinating." he says casually, eating somewhat uncouthly - not overly concerned if he was chewing at the moment, and carrying on with the conversation.

lol. Yeah, writing for Asha often gets me into trouble too. :D

"Hmm. Yeah, you're probably right. They were awfully impressive. But I don't think gaining weight is really going to help me much in that department," she said glancing down at herself. "I'm just not built that way. And it would kind of be a pain when I was tumbling and stuff."

Rena's wings seem to move up and down, almost in a very humanoid gesture of a shrug - as much as one could accomplish with no arms anyway. "You know, Tybalt's right - it could be fun to change aorund what you're like from minute to minute. Maybe I should ask Vare to make me a man next time I become humanoid. Just to see what it is like, you know?"

Simba nod as though it understands Midori's intentions.

Sorun rushes back, blue serpent in hand... "huff, huff....I...Huff... Found him, lets go!" he says.. then looks at the birds... "Which one's mine?'

Belsayv Rear Guard (Adon, Belyu)

The shade continues away down the tunnel for a few moments before apparently deciding to turn and face his pursuers, landing some 10 feet in front of Belyu and Adon. Now that the creature is at ground level, it's actually quite small - about as big as a medium sized dog, and vaguely humanoid in shape. It's details are still cloaked in shadow.

It hisses and points a finger at Adon.

Adon's SR: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20

Adon feels a spell-like ability brush up against him and be utterly consumed by his anti-magic 'abomination'. The shade seems to take a comic moment when it stares at it's finger a little dumbfounded, before turning and fleeing down the corridor once more, a touch more panicked now.

spellcraft on the ray1d20 + 29 ⇒ (20) + 29 = 49

The spell cast was Phantasmal Killer.

adon runs ahead as the creature stares at it's finger. stopping behind it so there is nowhere to run.

"Bad move."

double move to get in front of the running creature. Likely provokes an AOO.

Belsayv (Frontline Group)

Alright, I almost got to this tonight. I promise I will get to it early tomorrow. Sorry for the wait. Just to sum up everyone's actions so it's easier for me tomorrow (and correct me if I'm wrong):

settro scoops up a pebble and concentrates. The pebble suddenly cascades into a flood from his hand, knocking him down and sending water eveywhere. He uses his tail to push himself back up, shaking a little from the effort.

"Good enough, Dom?"

Dom nods back to Tyrrin. Seeing turns it into a wave crashing toward the infected. Waterbending check: 1d20 + 16 + 3 + 10 + 2 + 6 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 16 + 3 + 10 + 2 + 6 - 1 = 48 Wave seed Huge DC 25. Bull rush against all targets in a 15ft row. Bull rush attempt Str check: 1d20 + 19 + 12 ⇒ (19) + 19 + 12 = 50 As the water burst forth Dom calls out. "Should be just gotta get it to the right spot!" He then jumps onto the crest riding it into the center of the hoard. "Now is the time to keep them off of me!" He calls out as he land in the center of the body of water.

Any pushed 10ft will be knocked down and stop moving. Only those with in the center in a 15ft row will suffer the bull rush attempt the rest will just find them selves in ankle high water.

Tyrrin moves her magically enlarged self to stand between Dom and any oncoming attackers, not wishing to enact more walls of force just in case it disrupted his water bending.

Vai's fort save that I forgot: 1d20+14

Which means that Phaeze did cast his readied action.

Seeing Sadie shake off the effects of the pain, Phaezeriel watches Vai closely. When he sees that she will not resist the pain, he blocks her perception of the pain, preventing it from hampering her for a time. ::Vai, that will not last for long.::

Manifest Empathic Condition Relief augmented to block the pain for 8 rounds, after which the remaining two rounds will affect Vai.

"Pretty soon, I'm going to be starting on a project, so I can look and feel however I like whenever it suits me. If you want I could make you one, boobs when you want them, less when you don't. And I forgot early. The infirmary is where we have people to help with medical stuff, like if you get hurt or sick, but they also have scanny things that can tell you stuff about your body you need to know."

"Oh. I think this is going to take some getting used to. I'm not sure how these things work for non-firebirds. At home if I was hurt or sick I'd just crawl into the fireplace. Or if I was too hurt to do it myself someone would toss me in. And then I'd be all better. It seems weird to me that there's a place totally dedicated to treating people who are hurt or sick." She shrugged. "I guess I'll get used to all these new things eventually."

"And I think I'll pass on that changy thing even though it does sound interesting. I...I'm pretty tired of people who tell me what I need to be like in order to be desirable. Not that that's what you were doing. It's just something I've run into a lot. I think I'll just see if I can't find someone who likes me the way I am instead."

Mel looks in semi-mock surprise that she was noticed.

Oh hey, don't mind me, I ... Ahhh what the heck, I'm Melody, my friends call me Mel. she says as she approaches the stage.

I really didn't want to interupt anything here, I just sometimes like to use music to relax a bit. I can just listen if you prefer.

She takes a seat close by, her guitar leaning next to her.

Janie shrugged. "Suit yourself. I don't mind if you join in. The more the merrier, I say."

Sorun rushes back... "We are going to a temple! Come on!" He seems to be fairly bouncing with energy

Sheess inwardly sighs, and sends a message to Ryleh.

Ryleh, I am going to be gone for... a while, perhaps a rain check is in order for that next trip...

::I will miss our chats while you are gone. But I think it's best to avoid any more trips for a while. After all that happened while we were gone last time. I should be here if anything of the sort happens again.::

"Do not be as reckless as I have been, Professor. If it comes down to it, can the Harbinger isolate this with it's weaponry? It will be horrible, but at this rate, all of Agartha will be in danger if we let it spread. Our waterbender is going to attempt to cleanse the virus - but that might not end the danger.

"We can worry about the town's infrastructure after we save the people. Houses are replacable - people are much more difficult to return."

"I'm not being reckless. I know how to fix it. If we have to. It just has...unpredictable side effects. It's better if we find a less drastic way. Good luck."

Rena's wings seem to move up and down, almost in a very humanoid gesture of a shrug - as much as one could accomplish with no arms anyway. "You know, Tybalt's right - it could be fun to change aorund what you're like from minute to minute. Maybe I should ask Vare to make me a man next time I become humanoid. Just to see what it is like, you know?"

"Oooh. That has possibilities," she said with a grin.

Kuros

Attempt two...

1d20 ⇒ 2

Alright, given low base stats and that crappy roll, even with their increases in Str and Dex, looks like the bull rush works like a charm.

The infected had been massing for an attack with more and more of them appearing, climbing over buildings and swarming towards the group. As they started to charge the group, Dom brought the wave towards them, knocking several off their feet. The others didn't much care about their downed comrades and attempted to walk right over them to get at Dom.

Tyrrin, you get AoO, but there are a lot of them and they have so sense of self-preservation.

did my slowing them work?

did my slowing them work?

Sorry, missed that post the first time.

1d20 ⇒ 10

Yes, your slow spell worked.

Belsayv (Phaezeriel, Sadie, Vickory, Yrrin, Vai)

Sadie's taunt have a clear effect on the enemies, and those who were not already focused on her now turn their attention, turning away from the Dragon. The only one of the N'gathau whose attention she does not have is the one which Yrrin has entered into combat with.

That is, until Vickory's dispelling spell rips away the magical protections guarding their trove of living flesh. The other side of the stitched-together entity finally takes his hands away from the controls that was torturing the poor ghostly girl.

With a startling speed, the dual-sided entity begins to close the distance between itself and Vickory, and a pair of green beam lance out towards the reapling, one beam coming from each 'side' of the duo.

Enervation x2, which I'm pretty sure Vickory is immune. If not though, here's the rolls.
#1 (touch): 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19 1d4 ⇒ 1 negative levels
#2 (touch): 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (13) + 17 = 30 1d4 ⇒ 1 negative levels

Meanwhile, the blackened skin N'gathau facing Yrrin abandons his defensive position - especially after the splash of holy blood was not a kind of pain he enjoyed. He lashes out with his daggers, quick as lightning despite his wounds.

The dagger wielding N'gathau is able to drive several piercing blows through the holy warrior's defenses, causing more of the holy blood to spray painfully onto him, which only further enrages the creature.

Meanwhile, Sadie is set on all sides, with the archers picking her as their primary target, and the other two N'gathau - hammerhanded and blood-soaked axe wielder, also charge in on the teenaged girl. Luckily for Sadie, her mastery of her force field abilities are able to deflect all the blows from the two melee offender - they are simply not strong enough to break Sadie's defenses. The archers, however, are able to find the chinks in Sadie's 'armour'...

Didn't bother rolling the axe and hammer attacks, since they cannot pierce Sadie's DR.

Sadie is perforated just as Vai had been - arrows sinking deep into her vitals...

DONE! You guys have a turn now. :)

Janie shrugged. "Suit yourself. I don't mind if you join in. The more the merrier, I say."

Mel was figgity for a bit, she couldn't wait to play some music again. It felt like forever since she last played anything.

Now she started sit idly by; guitar at the ready... finally...

OK, I really wanna play something. she says excitedly, anxious to feel the rythm once again.

Here is a little something, please join in when you feel.

She plugs in her guitar and plays a little song

the look on mel is one of relief as she relaxes, letting her again feel the music, putting back in her element, her comfort zone.

skip the into talking

her voice isn't perfect as she still is a little raspy from her earlier injury but there is a marked improvement from earlier that day.

You did the thing. :(
The one where you use the dice = "text" thing. Which completely makes my reply to this post impossible. It turned their check into a wall of nonsense numbers. :(

Oh. Yah sorry been awhile.

Hew rushes toward the others carrying a duffle bag over his shoulder. "Wasn't sure how much I needed. Oh I tried to explain things to Zilla. She's still a little confused, but I think she should be fine. Given some time." He tells them while he sets the bag down.

Lang is pleased to see hew arrive.

I sent Sun off to find Grim. Mrs Blackscales is also coming.

Lea goes to help Hew with his stuff. she takes his bag with a gentile smile

you can ride on my owl, Hina she says politely.

Im not immune, but rather Im treated as undead for such effects, so I should get temp HP (minus my resistance) if they beat my SR. Only the second one actually hit though.

Vickory laughs tauntingly at the caster. Having been spotted and engaged, she decides to forgo the lock and instead to go on an all out offensive and cast Firestorm catching every baddie she can. Hearing Yrrin, she calls out "I got the caster!

dmg: 16d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 4, 1, 6, 4, 5, 1, 6, 5, 5, 6, 2, 3, 5, 2) = 59

In 32, 10' cubes. Well, however many are needed, stack the rest to avoid collateral.
Raw doesnt give rules for stacking area of the same spell, though two instantaneous spells stack, some gms allowing stacking area to deal stacking damage some dont, figured I'd find out.
Failed saves catch fire for 4d6 dmg each turn.

Vickory, going to need a SR penetration check for them.

"At guess that's one use for it.... so do you want one Rena? Once I get mine finished to see how it works. This week I'm working on a present for Dave's birthday and next week I have to make some suits for one of the classes, but the week after I'm gonna start on these.
That's a good mind set, by the way, Asha. Where I'm from we have a belief that there is a perfect person for you somewhere and that you are the perfect person for someone else. Your Dokonalá."
He's finished most of his second tray.

Seeing the veritable storm of arrows piercing through Sadie's defensive screens, Phaezeriel releases his readied focus from both of his divided minds and healing flows through the collective to Sadie even as the arrows are striking home.

Immediate action: 6d6 + 16 ⇒ (4, 1, 6, 4, 4, 5) + 16 = 40 healing.
Immediate action: 6d6 + 16 ⇒ (5, 4, 4, 5, 4, 3) + 16 = 41 healing.

Tyrrin doesn't have a weapon in-hand (nor any natural attacks or Improved Unarmed Strike), and so cannot take AoOs (she doesn't threaten squares for that purpose).

Tyrrin does her best to use her larger size to physically block as many of the infected as possible from reaching the waterbender.

Outside of Moirie's home, there is a dull thud of a heavy object hitting soft earth followed by a knock at the door that sounds more like someone hitting a rock on it.

The front door's hinges are ancient and rusty, as if the door is not often used... and a woman's voice from around the small home calls, Come round back

A man sized stone creature walks around the house.
It has a sculpted buzz cut topped by two horns, one of which is broken off. It has a semi-humanoid face with a large nose which is pointed directly at a clipboard.
It has a round body and satyrs' legs ending in split hooves. Large stone wings are folded on its back.
"Good" it pauses to look at the sky before back at the clipboard "evening Sir or Ma'am. You have received a letter of acceptance for your child, insert na-uh" he flips it to a different page and then back. "Moirie, to the Avalon School for Gifted Children," he recites off the clipboard in a monotone, not looking away from it.
"It is now are understandin that you's haz completed yer prepehrations for sendin off your child. I am here to escort your child to the campus. You may take all the time you need to say goodbye and then I will escort him or her safely to the school."
He looks up at you from it.

The tall thin woman looks down her nose at the statue... her silver hair framing an alabaster face...

"You are the escort sent by the headmaster?" her soft voice is like a bar of steel wrapped in velvet...as if you are a cricket that knows a mildly amusing trick; that she has seen twice, and is losing patience

Eric. she says, her voice softening for the first time.

and a thin, slightly worried man opens the back door... Yes dear?

Get Morire please...

of course.... and disappears back inside...

"Uh. Yes." It says when asked.
It clears its throat and flips some paper on the clipboard, akwardly waiting for them to get him ready and out.

The witch doesn't blink, her black cloak blowing in the wind....

A small boy inside a volumous blue robe and yellow wizards hat...

do I have to go mommy?"

Morire. We had this talk already. Yes, Morire, you must go.

He shuffles foreward... I am Morire... I have my backpack and book... I am ready for school.

"Nala, what exquisite timing you have! Please, come in. There's trouble in Kuros."

"Er, I'm not sure I'm the best person to help in Kuros," she said hesitantly as she walked into Ryo's office. "I'm pretty burnt out from keeping the infirmary running. I nearly froze the whole place because I panicked during a patient consult," she admitted sheepishly. "I was coming to let you know that you need to put someone else in charge for a little while.

She swung through the branches like a monkey, which closed the gap between them again, but she was still following him if only barely.

"What, no training to remember places you've been?" He teases, slowing down. He couldn't keep up that pace for long anyway.
