"Looks like a total loss. This will have to be rebuilt completely."


Male Elf (ancient) Barbarian 3 (magus) perc +7 F 7 R 8 W 7 max HP 42/45 spd 35 AC 20

well, at least you know the layout and where to rebuild. Eventually you may find something useful in this collapsed pile Sylas says.


HP 18/39 AC 16 Shield +1 F +7 R +7 W +8 Poppet Oracle 3

Are the blackberry vines showing ripe fruit?

"Watch out for thorns, Sparky cautions. "Those blackberry vines can really hold onto fabric or scratch skin. You can transplant them around a wall too. Prevents many people from climbing over it."

Liberty's Edge

Sparky that makes me happy. I haven't thrown out heropoints, so this seems like an excellent time to do so. everyone get one hero point

The blackberries are ripe, but when you touch them they seem rotten in the core of the bunches. It will take work, but you might be able to move these to the main house later.

Aside from the vines and ruin, there isn't much here. You might salvage things if you spend time. Where to next?


Female Human Bard 3

"Shall we check out the main building now?"


Male Elf (ancient) Barbarian 3 (magus) perc +7 F 7 R 8 W 7 max HP 42/45 spd 35 AC 20

sure enough Lady Weaver, let's do this thing Sylas says with a nod

Liberty's Edge

A double door made of dark oak stands in the middle of the manor’s facade, carved with a series of overlapping circles with a stylized “X” at their center.

Female Human Bard 3

"I suppose there is no reason to knock, is there?" Rola tries to open the door.

Horizon Hunters

Male Electric Elemental Heart Dwarf Rogue 3: Spd:25, AC:20, HP:9/43, Fort:8, Ref:11, Will:8, Per:8, Darkvision

Yeah, go ahead, open it

Liberty's Edge

You carefully reach toward the door. It creaks and slowly opens. There is a feeling like an oily bubble burting all around you, vanishing in an instant of foul-smelling smoke. A wave of susurration creeps through the
area, and everyone here experience a sudden sensation of utter hatred toward birdlife for the span of a single heartbeat. You see a few birds drop from above dead at your feet.

The cavernous hall is head of you. Motes of dust drift through the air of this large entrance hall. To the north, a pair of wide staircases ascend to a balcony that encircles the room above. An old, musty carpet on the otherwise-bare wood floor partially leads the way to a double door between the stairs. Four other doors provide exits to either side, while the southwestern and southeastern walls have tall cabinets and coat racks set against them. On the upper floor, the railed ten-foot-wide balcony circles this room, leaving the central area open to the second floor’s ceiling twenty feet above.

Sylas looks around the huge room and says under his breath someone was compensating for something and the outloud which way?

Radiant Oath

"Let's check out the rooms to the left first?" Rola tries not to look at the dead birds.


HP 18/39 AC 16 Shield +1 F +7 R +7 W +8 Poppet Oracle 3

"Oh what a strange feeling!" Sparky says stepping in the room, bending down to look closely at the birds. "Even after awakening, I'd scare the birds away at the farm for eating the sown seeds and the fruit at harvest. But I didn't hate them. Did you feel it too?" the poppet asks his companions. "What magic could have caused it?" The poppet grows quiet, thinking.

Recall Knowledge Religion in case that may give some insight for the emotional effect.

Sparky steps carefully to the left, his wooden clogs sounding like a gentle knocking as he avoids the carpet.

Horizon Hunters

Male Electric Elemental Heart Dwarf Rogue 3: Spd:25, AC:20, HP:9/43, Fort:8, Ref:11, Will:8, Per:8, Darkvision

Walks in You all coming.

Liberty's Edge

Sparky roll them bones for religion!

You step in to the entry way. Its massive, imposing, and due to what just happened, unwelcoming. Going left and opening the door, nothing scary happens except you end up in a long branching hall with several doors.
Map


Female Human Bard 3

"Let's check each one of these rooms." Rola tries to open the nearest door.


HP 18/39 AC 16 Shield +1 F +7 R +7 W +8 Poppet Oracle 3

Sparky starts to slide his clogs across the wooden floor so he doesn't make as much noise as his normal footstep. "So should we each take a door?"

recall knowledge (religion): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

Are there candles we should light? Or open the drapes?

Liberty's Edge

For light, its up to you. its fairly dark here so candles would help.

You know that that last thing was a haunt. Something really hates birds here.

For the rooms, these room all look identical This ten-foot-square bedroom features a single drab bed, a footlocker, a dresser with a wash basin atop it, a clay chamber pot, and a grimy window.

As you open the last room, A damp, ectoplasmic handprint appears on a
window, only to reach out of the surface briefly to try to choke you Rola The hand vanishes a moment later, but your left hand feels weirdly damp until it’s wiped off.

Male Elf (ancient) Barbarian 3 (magus) perc +7 F 7 R 8 W 7 max HP 42/45 spd 35 AC 20

there is some strange things going on here. Do you want to search any of these rooms or keep moving? Sylas says


Female Human Bard 3

"I want to search all these room, although it might make sense to do a quick look, and come back and do a deep search later."

Horizon Hunters

Male Electric Elemental Heart Dwarf Rogue 3: Spd:25, AC:20, HP:9/43, Fort:8, Ref:11, Will:8, Per:8, Darkvision

Yes, search them all, we can discover secrets.

Liberty's Edge

You carefully search all the rooms. Not much beyond basic room furnishings. They will make nice servants quarters once whatever is happening here is resolved.

Where to next?


HP 18/39 AC 16 Shield +1 F +7 R +7 W +8 Poppet Oracle 3

"I didn't like the birds too much in the garden," Sparky says when the group is still at the entrance. "But hating them so much beyond death makes no sense to me. That's the first haunt I've encountered."

"Are you okay Rola?" Sparky asks the human. "That happened so quickly I didn't really get a chance to react. Let's not split up to search. Let's see what's in here." Sparky pushes open the door.

I moved my character on the map to the door that he's opening.


Female Human Bard 3

"I'm fine, Sparky, In fact, I'm excited to be seeing my ancestral home. Let's keep looking."


Male Elf (ancient) Barbarian 3 (magus) perc +7 F 7 R 8 W 7 max HP 42/45 spd 35 AC 20

Sylas comes along with the crowd and says well I don't know so much about these haunts but they must have some reason to be here. We will figure it all out

Horizon Hunters

Male Electric Elemental Heart Dwarf Rogue 3: Spd:25, AC:20, HP:9/43, Fort:8, Ref:11, Will:8, Per:8, Darkvision

Yes we will in time.

Liberty's Edge

At the center of this room, three chairs surround each side of a long wooden table. In the room’s southern portion, two tall leather-backed chairs face a smaller table. To the north looms a brick fireplace, a spray of dusty ashes and charcoal scattered across the floor in front of it.

Seeing the fireplace, Sparky heads in the other direction, nearly sliding along the wall to the corner. "I'll be careful with fire in your house," Sparky says. He chants some arcane words and launches a small ball of fire at the creature across the table from him.

There we go! now thats a round!

the choker runs, but doesn't get far as the team rallies and burns this thing to the ground! It drops burning and guggaling to the floor.

You know with religion that his is an aberration and you can use occult. also I missed it because sometimes I do put that PhD to work! #sarcasm

With the excitement done, you are all standing around in a room or in the hall. what happens next?

Rola looks around the room. "Anyone injured? Should we take a few minutes?" I'm got hymn of healing for 16 hp every ten minutes

Horizon Hunters

Male Electric Elemental Heart Dwarf Rogue 3: Spd:25, AC:20, HP:9/43, Fort:8, Ref:11, Will:8, Per:8, Darkvision

I'm injured, thanks.


HP 18/39 AC 16 Shield +1 F +7 R +7 W +8 Poppet Oracle 3

"That creature squeezed me pretty hard," Sparky says. "If I wasn't made of stuffing I'd be bruised I'm sure. So that's what a choker is. Thank you everyone for stopping it from taking me away."

He walks over to Zano, "I can cast some healing magic on you, if you'd like." His shiny button eyes examine the dwarf's injuries.


Female Human Bard 3

Rola sings hymn of healing on Sparky for 16 hp. She refocuses for ten minutes.
