Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

”Lowls likely refers to Count Haserton Pragmus Lowls IV, ruler of Ustalav’s Versex County. If we had anything to do with him, we were certainly moving in high circles,” Domeric said, ”I don’t remember anything else about him, though,” he added apologetically.


Perhaps I was a prince who was hidden away in order to keep me safe from assassins!


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

Domeric chuckled, ”Well, I wouldn’t mind being a lost prince myself. Sounds like a job that would have some perks, and I’m sure I’ve got some princely charms in me.”


Where to next?


Let us head out the door into the hallway here. C15 and then C17


Male Human (Preacher) Inquisitor 15 | AC 23/17/21 | HP 97/105 | F+15,R+16,W+14 (Stalwart)| +1 v charms, compulsions) (Stalwart)| Init.+12, Perc+18, SM+24 | Judgment 5/day |Determination 5/day |

”Sounds good. Lead ahead, and let’s keep searching for information....this place does seem to go on forever, though.”


The hall is dark and empty, except for the smashed remains of lanterns on the ground.

Moving on to C17

[I]The handles of dozens of drawers frown from the faces of numerous matching cabinets. Many of the drawers are open and their contents-volume's worth of stray parchments blanket the floor. There is a woman here dressed in strange yellow robes, she snarls at you and moves forward to attack

Apostle initiative: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22
Atajay initiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
Trevor initiative: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26
Domeric initiative: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Akhuko initiative: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Chakam initiative: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14


So initiative order is:

Trevor
Apostle
Chakam
Domeric
Atajay
Akhuko

So Trevor your action


Trevor grunts and puts some extra force behind his blow as he responds
Earthbreaker,Power attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 152d6 + 7 ⇒ (4, 1) + 7 = 12


[i]The Apostle staggers under your blow but is still there. She screams at the top of her voice, "Infidels, Heretics!"

She then attacks Trevor with a crowbar

Crowbar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 111d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8


The Apostle misses

Chakam, your action


Chakam, over to you


Chakam moves in and attacks the apostle with his greatsword

Greatsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 62d6 + 6 ⇒ (5, 5) + 6 = 16


Chakam misses

Domeric, your action


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

Domeric draws his starknives and infuses them with arcane power before making an attack against the enemy.

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8


Under the star knife attack of Domeric the apostle falls. In the distance you can hear the sound of running feet.

Atajay, your action


Looks like we have company!


Male Human (Preacher) Inquisitor 15 | AC 23/17/21 | HP 97/105 | F+15,R+16,W+14 (Stalwart)| +1 v charms, compulsions) (Stalwart)| Init.+12, Perc+18, SM+24 | Judgment 5/day |Determination 5/day |

Atajay uses the wand of Bless yet again.

Remember your +1 Bless Bonus!


Akhuko, your action


Akukho retreats as far from the footsteps as he can and murmurs something that causes his skin to flash black for a moment.

Mage Armor


Trevor will ready an attack if anything hostile charges through the door.


Two more apostles appear, Trevor take an attack of opportunity


Attack,Power: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 82d6 + 7 ⇒ (6, 5) + 7 = 18


Trevor misses. The apostles then try to attack Trevor

apostle crowbar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 141d6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

apostle crowbar: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 121d6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3


Domeric, your action


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

Domeric attacks the nearest enemy with both his starknives in rapid succession.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Damage 1: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Attack 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Damage 2: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7


Domeric you drop the first Apostle, the second one is injured by your blow but is still there.

Atajay, back to you


Male Human (Preacher) Inquisitor 15 | AC 23/17/21 | HP 97/105 | F+15,R+16,W+14 (Stalwart)| +1 v charms, compulsions) (Stalwart)| Init.+12, Perc+18, SM+24 | Judgment 5/day |Determination 5/day |

Atajay moves in front of Dom and fires off an arrow at the last enemy.

Shot with PBS and Precise 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 5 + 1 = 19

Damage 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6


The arrow flies true, striking the apostle deep in the chest, but she is still there.

Akhuko, back to you


Akukho flicks his fingers and sends acid hurtling at the nearest apostle.

RT Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9 Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1


The acid hits the apostle and she screams in pain

Trevor, back to you


Trevor does what he does best
Hammer,Bless,PA: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 82d6 + 7 ⇒ (4, 1) + 7 = 12

Which seems to be missing horribly.


The apostle responds by trying to attack Trevor with her crowbar

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 231d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5


Over to you Domeric


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

Domeric once again infuses his starknives with arcane energy and attacks the nearest enemy.

Attack 1: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21
Damage 1: 1d4 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Attack 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Damage 2: 1d4 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4


With your final blow the apostle falls to the floor.

On each of the bodies you find a suit of padded armour, a club and a sap. You also find a vial of silversheen and a vial of oil of align weapon.


Ugh..I'm bleeding all over the place.


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

"Yes, let's patch you up some," Domeric agreed, casting Cure Light Wounds on Trevor.

CLW on Trevor: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10


Male Human (Preacher) Inquisitor 15 | AC 23/17/21 | HP 97/105 | F+15,R+16,W+14 (Stalwart)| +1 v charms, compulsions) (Stalwart)| Init.+12, Perc+18, SM+24 | Judgment 5/day |Determination 5/day |

Atajay suggests Trevor and Don to divide the two oils. ”Neverknow what we might need to hurt something in this god’s forsaken place.”


My thanks, we no doubt each need to learn how to stop bleeding and such. Trevor will take the oil of align weapon.


"I believe I can help with that. If needed. And warned." Akukho offers. "We still have no records - this is not helpful. We ought to press on. Quickly."


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

Domeric takes the vial of silversheen, if no one else was claiming it.

"Well, I expect we'll get better at patching each other up, given time. But yes, let's be off. Where to next?" Domeric asked.


The room you are in is full of medical records.

Loot: 3 crowbars
3 saps
3 sets of padded armour
2 vials of silversheen
Oil of align weapon

The other room (where the other 2 came from is empty


Let us check that room C18


The walls of this crowded room are covered by filing cabinets, except for one space, where a battered old painting of a sombre, towering structure hangs.


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

Domeric casts Detect Magic and searches the room for anything useful.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16


Akukho immediately begins a survey of the filing cabinets, his eyes whizzing across the labels and documents at an almost impossible speed. There are a lot of records however!

Take 20 on searching the filing cabinets.


You find a +2 short sword. In addition there are 40gp and 6 pearls worth 15gp each.

Among the records you find descriptions about yourselves stating you are all amnesiacs suffering from some manner of fugue state. It also says you were brought here by Count Haserton Lowls and you worked for him in some capacity before being institutionalised.

You also find records regarding another patient called Ulver Zandulus. It reads as follows:

Patient: Ulver Zandalus

Male, Varisian descent, approximate age 47

Home suspected to be Rozenport, Versex County

Committed: 2 Sarenrith 4685

Circumstances: Transferred from Pharismin Lamentations in Rozenport.

Attending Doctor: Eliege Losandro

Zandalus exhibits complete withdrawal from society and an inability to care for himself in any but the most basic needs. The symptoms of his passive antisociality chronically present as mutism and blankness. Frequent night terrors result in brief but dramatic nocturnal outburts-shouting, shaking, fear responses. Zandalus grasps the difference between sleep and wakefulness and typically recovers from nightmares quickly.

Treatment: Therapy, antipsychotic regimen, observation

Development: 2/4687 - Zandalus proves to be a gifted and prolific artist. He has enthusiastically taken to using a charcoal drawing set to create dramatic but fanciful works of art, typically of surreal architecture and skyscapes. Art calms him in the wake of nightmares. He will be afforded basic supplies to continue such art therapy.

Development 11/4702 - A shift has occurred in Zandalus' art. He has repeatedly almost perfectly illustrated one of the ancient standing stones situated at the northwestern corner of the asylum grounds. As the isle's shores are off-limits to patients, I do not believe he has ever seen the subject of his work. The significance or coincidence of this brooks further study.

Development 3/4715 - Count Haserton Lowls has taken an interest in Zandalus: First his art and now the artist. Lowls has become a repeat visitor, spending hours with my patient, but refuses to explain his interest.


Male Human Bard(Arcane Duelist) 15, 96/121 HP Init: 7

Domeric takes the pearls.

"Again with this Zandalus, eh?" he said, "Sounds like he might be someone important..."


Male Human (Preacher) Inquisitor 15 | AC 23/17/21 | HP 97/105 | F+15,R+16,W+14 (Stalwart)| +1 v charms, compulsions) (Stalwart)| Init.+12, Perc+18, SM+24 | Judgment 5/day |Determination 5/day |

”What is Lowls connection with this place? Clearly he just dumped us here for some reason. But what did he find with this Zandalus? And what’s up with that spooky set he was drawing?”
