Ranok |
Ranok let's his mind wander to a peaceful time where he could be a farmer. It is harvest time and he is out to gather the hay for his livestock. With a contented smile, he swings his scythe in a wide arc...
greatsword, slashing: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 162d6 + 5 ⇒ (4, 5) + 5 = 14
Coming out of his reverie as his stalks of hay erupts into blood, Ranok follows through with a bite on GREY, or BLUE if GREY falls.
bite, piercing: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 201d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Igar The Terrible |
Ranok's greatsword devastates but does not drop the zombie in front of him.
He gets a taste of the fetid creature. The zombie does not seem to mind that.
Eddie and Bill move over to the restrained and glittery kobold.

Niu |
Niu flies back over to Ranok, remaining 5ft off of the ground.
Seeing the workers surrounding the glittery kobold, he cautions. "We want that one alive. For now." He giggles. "I will heal it in a moment, but perhaps one of you could try to make sure it doesn't bleed out?"
Gathering a handful of sand out of one of his pockets, he gestures and sprinkles the sand around Ranok. Floating down to cover Ranok's wounds, the sand adheres to the bruises and starts to glow warmly, then falls away to show clear skin.
Healing Hex on Ranok
Healing: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (1, 3) + 5 = 9
Glancing at Rhen, he adds. "The Dread Myrmidon on the tower is going to be a tough nut. He is fortified and appears to have ranged weapons. Plus, I think he is planning to suck the brains out of that man tied to the tower"
Lady Ziera Wyvernrose |
Did the Blue one move? If so I should get an AoO?
Zeira shifts like a dancer on her feet and twists her haft as she strikes to bring the weapon down on the blue one before her to keep it at bay.
Blessed Strike!: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (12) + 11 = 23
Damage: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
Festia Tappo |
Festia holds her spear trained on the restrained kobold. Its tip resting on it but not going further in.
"Lady he is restrained and guarded I shall remain here with the creature" She says looking at the men approaching.
"This creature is the prisoner of Lady Ziera, Please tend to the others while I guard him"
Igar The Terrible |
Blue did not move. Zombies are staggered. Blue is destroyed.

Rhen deftly avoids the incoming blows, smiling as he does. "Yer to slow"

Stab Flank: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 9 + 2 = 231d6 + 5 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 5 + (2, 2) = 10
Rhen rolls around the zombie moving to a position so he can be most effective.
Moved around not through the zombie.
Igar The Terrible |
Rhen outmaneuvers the flailing zombie and lands a blow. Not his best, though, by any means.
The grey zombie lashed out at Ranok.

Khonsu becomes annoyed at this dead thing that won't fall back down and hisses at it vehemently.

Ranok |
Ranok blinks the sand out of his eyes and glances up as he begins to feel better from the battering that he took from the logs.
"Thank you friend! Do not endanger yourself with that myrmidon. We'll get there in a minute." Ranok says as he swipes at the grey zombie still standing in front of him, leaving the flank for Rhen.
greatsword, slashing: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 172d6 + 5 ⇒ (5, 4) + 5 = 14
"Pphht! That zombie did not taste good at all Khonsu.
Niu |
Giggling, Niu resonds. "Endanger myself? No chance.
I do have some ideas on how we can try to save this person, but I'd like Rhen to get a look at him to decide if he is worth the effort first, but that can wait until we are done here."
Niu sprinkles some sand on himself to heal his own wounds, then takes a flying five foot step back and puts the scroll he is still holding back into his haversack.
Healing: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (2, 8) + 5 = 15
Fly check for moving less than half speed is automatic. If you consider a 5-foot step to be "hovering", I'll have to roll
Niu |
"Hee, hee, I hadn't thought about you recognizing the kobold. I was referring to the man tied up on top of that tower to the north.
Maybe you can sneak up to the edge of this building and take a look."
He looks at the scarf tied about the still invisible kobold. "I wonder if the scarf will turn invisible once the glitterdust wears off? That would be unfortunate. It is also hard to stabilize someone you can't see.
Could someone perhaps frisk the body and remove its weapons before I attempt healing?"
Lady Ziera Wyvernrose |
"Niu we should begin to head that way. The creature seems bad news and if it is undead like these zombies then it must be put to the sword!" She says as she shifts her polearm to stand on its butt and the Blade pointing to the air.
Niu |
"Hmmm.. I agree. The creature is just on the other side of that building to the north.
I could always speak to the kobold's corpse. Surely the invisibility will wear off after it dies?
Hmmm... Easier to get answers if it is alive, though. Perhaps I will use a bit of healing magic and trust these rather large gentlemen to keep it from running away while we clear the nasty undead thing from the camp."
Ranok |
"I think that would be a mistake. I think the human is being used as bait to lure us into another trap. We should take care of the surrounding area first, then get the human. He's been up there for a while waiting on us I bet. he can wait a couple more minutes. Khonsu, destroy that thing." Ranok points a the last remaining zombie.
Igar The Terrible |
The kobold at the tip of Festia's spear vanishes along with her scarf.
1d20 - 9 ⇒ (12) - 9 = 3

Khonsu takes a circuitous route to the outside of the zombie's range at the suggestion of Ranok and takes a slice at the zombie with one claw.

Niu |
Landing on the ground next to the captive, Niu reaches out to touch the area under the spear tip.
Once he has touched the captive, he activates his healing. Healing: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 6) + 5 = 18
In Draconic, he cautions the prisoner. "Easy now, that spear can go through an invisible kobold as well as a visible one. Let's have a parley, shall we?"
Ranok |
Ranok strolls over to the kobold as Khonsu continues to battle the zombie.
We would like to know who else here is trying to kill us...and how.
If we die, there will be no one to untie you
Looking over to Ziera, "Are you able to tell if he is evil or not?"
Rhen Vemsa |
"Ye take yer men, we will investigate here." Rhen says staring the Kobold down. "Ye I don't know, what tribe are you from?" Rhen asks. [b]"Was that man in danger or can he wait?"{/b] Rhen asks Niu
Stealth if necessary: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (2) + 17 = 19
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
THose are for sneaking up when it progresses to that
Niu |
Niu cocks his head, and stares strangely at Rhen.
"Other than being bound and helpless within easy reach of a creature that can suck his brain out before we could possibly climb the ladder, you mean?"
Niu looks skyward and taps his chin. "No, I don't think he was in any danger. I do think that Ranok has a valid point about it seeming like bait for a trap."
Niu |
Peering at the struggling kobold, Niu lets a foot on its chest.
Plus, I was just about to offer to take you for a flight."
Niu grabs the Kobold's ankle and starts to float upwards, just enough so that the kobold's shoulders leave the ground and its head starts dragging around.
Niu flies a little bit higher and prepares to start going upwards more quickly.
This should be amusing
Intimidation: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0
BwaHaHaHa!
Niu |
Niu settles back on the ground, with a morose look on his face.
Dies Rhen speak Draconic? If not, I will translate for him.
Ranok |
"Rhen, you are walking into Depnakraden's trap. We've already stumbled into one. This feels staged. If that man's brains haven't been sucked out yet, I think he's safe. Let's skirt around the edge and make it safe for all before we free the man. Maybe starting with that large pile of logs?"
Niu |
Raising an eyebrow as Rhen leaves the interrogation, Niu calls out. "He claims to be of the Truescale"
Deciding to continue on his own, Niu starts questioning the kobold.
This Depnakraden, is that the undead thing in the tower?
Why do you work with such a creature?"
Truescale Kobold |
"No, no, no. Undeads come from woods while we slaughter night blind pink-skins middle of night. Depnaakra greatest Sting Warden ever. I be his disciple. Even undeads wants to fight with him and they afear him."
Ipmeerk cocks his head while looking at the flying pink-skin who is red.
"You want to fight with Depnaakra too? You win all fights that way."
Igar The Terrible |
Rhen, when you hear the name Truescale, you are taken back to Merlokrep and that adventure. You recall that Kerrdremak is now king of Truescales. He took the crown when you killed Merlokrep. He was to leave with the tribe to find better environs for his people as he knew a very dark force was present. His last words to you were "If you return the way we came in, you will be unmolested. Veer from that and you will undoubtedly find danger. Live long, humans. May we meet under better circumstances next time."
Rhen Vemsa |
"I be rememberin' them fer sure. We will deal with that in a minute."{/b] Rhen says before responding to Ranok. [b]"We need ta find out now, I will go quiet and just have a peek." Rhen says before using the rolls above :)
Igar The Terrible |
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
As you poke your head around the building, you see a creaky wooden ladder ascending a tower of thatched logs approximately 30 feet high. Hanging off the side of the tower, tied haphazardly in a dizzying array of knotted ropes, sags a living man, still moaning in agony. Standing on top of the tower is a heavily built undead kobold with most of his scales missing and flesh showing rotten rents and tears. He does not seem to notice you. He has a stack of javelins and other weapons you cannot quite make up. He appears to be applying poison to a javelin.
Niu |
Niu bobs his head and smiles at the Kobold as he talks,
So, you Truescales raided the camp in the night and started killing pink-skins? These kobolds who were undead here, were they Truescales or are they some of the undead who came from the woods?"
Ranok |
Speaking to himself in common as he walks back to Niu and Ipmeerk, The undead are not part of this kobold group. 'He who creeps and crawls,' 'Great Sting Warden,' no, that sounds like something else enirely.
To Ipmeerk, he saysThat was quite the trap we fell into. That hurt very much. Very smart of the Truscales to catch us in such a trap. What other traps have you set up for us?
