[Facepaw]

Create Spawn (Su) A humanoid creature killed by a shadow's Strength damage becomes a shadow under the control of its killer in 1d4 rounds.

A somewhat horrified Krays feels another undead form into being
"H'Tor!!! Stop it!! Shift back to skeleton!! Oh, man..."

If it makes you feel any better, then Shadowstrikes had already permanently destroyed his mind, so there really wasn't any saving him.

If the wards are set up to stop people from actually being killed in the Snipe Hunt, wouldn't it stand to reason that they would also prevent being turned into undead...?

[EDIT]: Or what she said below... ;D

They had found a way to make themselves invisible to the wards. Which also means unable to be effected by the helpful effects.

Oooo - posts moved around. Much wonkiness... (^.^)

No wonder Ryleh was able to kill off so many Hunters... they're all idiots!

Well, let's consider this for a minute...the Shadowstrike Clan was trained by the ghost of a guy who got killed by a dragon. Yep, that's right, not only did he fail, he was dead! And they thought it was a good idea to listen to what he had to say...As if this wasn't enough, they then go start a fight not with dragons, but with...another Hunter Clan for not being traditional enough....And then infiltrated the school run by the rest of their enemies....yes. Yes, they are all idiots. :)

As if this wasn't enough, they then go start a fight not with dragons, but with...another Hunter Clan for not being traditional enough....

...

None of them are going to make it out of this school intact...

Two down, twelve to go?

Two down, twelve to go?

What was the name of the clan they fought with? I can guess already, but...

Everyone looks over to see Ephebe trying to smash a gem on the stone ground. When she realizes you're watching she looks up with a shrug, "Anyone know how to break this thing?"

Regarding Ephebe's very self-less "soul-swap' trick… i think it might have been fun to get soul-trapped. Stuck alone in a gem with no one but his own mind for company? Seems like an awesome breeding-ground for becoming a wilder to me!

"We can always give to Kam and let him drop it." Taron suggests thoughtfully.

Right up until you consider that had their 'trick' worked they would have teleported away and then killed him later, sure, sounds great...;P

Let's just say you are guessing correctly.

Oh, surely the wise and powerful DM's could have come up with a side adventure for Spin to be rescued... I'm just sayin'. Anyway... back to the actual plot.

Ephebe slams the gem once more on the ground (with a surprisingly loud crack). If that doesn't break it, she shrugs, "I guess we could try that.

Spin's pretty strong (STR 26).. is he able to crack it on the ground?

...stuff...

"We can always give to Kam and let him drop it." Taron suggests thoughtfully.

"Unless anyone has a hammer, I don't have any better ideas."

Attack: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (20) + 15 = 351d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 211d20 + 15 ⇒ (6) + 15 = 21
Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 141d6 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 141d6 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Attack: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 161d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 221d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 19
Damage: 1d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 111d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 151d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

Asch puts his guns away and two shortswords form in his hands made of solid shadow and attacks the trapped enemy.

[ooc]Crit: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (12) + 15 = 271d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

I'm confused. Is Asch attacking the guy trapped in the tentacles or the gem?

Errr......I actually forgot about him...... Forsome reason I thought he got taken out of the fight. Changing that to shortswords and attacking him instead of maces and the gem.

The spellcaster who had been grappled in the tentacles slumps to the ground unconscious.

Looks back at Krays like "What?!?", then reluctantly shifts to his normal form. Seeing the shadow there seeking instructions...
::Oops. Looks like I got a pet!::

"..."

You should call her 'Whoopsy Daisy'.... ;D

Facepalm
"Oh, man....I'm not going to get expelled, am I!?!"

Facepalm

"Oh, man....I'm not going to get expelled, am I!?!"

See what happens when you go tossing around spells like a bad juggler tosses knives?

Facepalm

"Oh, man....I'm not going to get expelled, am I!?!"

Getting around the wards is a double-edged sword. They are there to keep you safe, and if you decide you don't want the wards to work on you, as the Hunters have...

It was self-defense.

"Here let me see if I can't get the gem open."

Attacks Right:
1d20 + 18 ⇒ (2) + 18 = 201d20 + 18 ⇒ (7) + 18 = 251d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25
Attacks Left:
1d20 + 18 ⇒ (3) + 18 = 211d20 + 18 ⇒ (13) + 18 = 311d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19

Damage Right:
1d6 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 151d6 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 131d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
Damage Left:
1d6 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 121d6 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 121d6 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

He says as the swords in his hand reform into two maces and he begins to hit the gem.

The gem smashes open and purple smoke flows out of it, reforming into the shape of Ephebe. She staggers a little as she finds herself outside of the gem prison.

"Welcome back."

"Hi Ephebe! That was close..."

"Yeah," she said, sitting down rather abruptly. "Too close." She yawned. "I need a nap..."

"So what do we want to do with these two?" Asch asks as he nudges the unconscious man with his foot and points to the mind blasted hunter.

** spoiler omitted **

Draconic:

She yawned again, her eyelids drooping.

"So what do we want to do with these two?" Asch asks as he nudges the unconscious man with his foot and points to the mind blasted hunter.

"I'm pretty sure we should take them to the Headmaster and let him sort it out."

Lysander jumps from his tree and walks deeper into the forest, almost like he's daring someone to follow him.

"I can take them to him. I'm not getting any real readings from their minds though."

"You gona quit our match so soon?" Asch asks with a slight grin.

"S%&%!" She cradled her head in her hands, tears starting to drip down her nose. "I just did something really, really stupid."

"Huh! What! Why what's going on?" Asch stutters.

Blink Blink
"Wha...? Is he going to go after the rest of the Shadow-whats-its?"

*Blink*
*Blink*
*Looks at Asch*
*Looks at Krays*
*Looks at Ephebe*
*Looks at Ephebe-Spin*

"I honestly don't know what's going on...." Asch says with a shrug as he tries to figure out what just happened.

Ephebe shook her head.

Spin:

"I don't know where he's going."

She is exhausted to the point that her vision is starting to blur.

"You gona quit our match so soon?" Asch asks with a slight grin.

"Note that I didn't say when I was going to take them to Ryo."

"Do you want me to go after him?" Taron asks Ephebe gently.

3000th post!

"He said 'Thanks for the weapon'...was he talking about the one he used to kill the ghost? Did you give that to him? I thought he had it before?"

"Do you want me to go after him?" Taron asks Ephebe gently.

"Wouldn't do any good," she sniffled. "I'm too tired to turn back time and short of that nothing I can do about my being an idiot." She sighed. "One of these days I'm going to do something right."
