Ed's Shades of Blood

Beorn asks the group. Is everyone alright? Does anyone need any medical attention?

"Well, I took minor wounds..." Karen Casts Lay on Hands on herself. "But they're gone now." She spends 10 minutes Refocusing by contemplating her bloodline.

"Who else needs healing?" She asks the party.

Karen can heal 6 hp per 10 minutes.

You all take a breather. It wasn't the hardest fight you've had, but it was possibly the most disgusting. Whatever that crazy dero was up to, it's done now. Where to now?

Peat raises his hand to Beorn. "I need some healing ... that nastiness took quite a lot out of me."

18 points damage

Randall Fortitude save d20+7=(13)+7=20
Randall will spite out the gore “by the gods”

After Karen and Beorn spend an indeterminate amount of time healing, Karen points to the room where the Dero lurked.

"Let's check that out. There may be some valuable items inside."

Beorn, hearing Karen's words, says excitedly. We can only hope!

Fortitude: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

Take a hero point to make it 19 please!

Gog turns to Beorn, "I could use some healing! Those beast were harsher than I thought."

He then turns to Karen and says "I definitely hope the dero has something valuable with the fight it gave us."

Beorn looks at Grog's wounds and gets to work 8+7=15 success, so 4+6=10. have to spend an hour to do another medical check. 16+7=23 success, so 5+2=7 for a total of 17 hit points in health for Grog.

So are we sitting around for an hour? If so, could I get some healing too?

In between healing, Peat investigates the body of the dero and searches the room.

You search the room and find the diary of a madwoman. There is not much more beyond experimental equipment that has been twisted to horrific purposes. You read and, as the only one who understands her speech, learn of attempts to combat the sun's effects on vampires via fleshwarping. She thinks that if a person is fleshwarped before vampirization, then they would be safe from the sun or stakes. This has not worked yet. The thing was a human known as Wulray. He was loyal before, and remained loyal after her experiments.

Beyond the diary, there is little here of use. Where to next?

The dero was shooting a crossbow, right? I assume it's here. Hand crossbow or normal crossbow? I could use some more range than my seedpod.

"Wow, this ... is crazy. She must have been working with the vampire cult, trying to find a way to ... make vampires safer from the sun, by fleshwarping them before they got turned into vampires." Though they are the ramblings of a madwoman, he keeps the book in his bag, in case further investigation of the writings might be useful later. "This ... test subject was a human named Wulray ..."

"Vampires? Here?" Karen raises an eye incredulously. "That might explain why they're trying to make everything so dark."

I think with the fact that I can dispense 6hp every 10 minutes, we should be fully healed by the end of the hour.

Beorn spits on the ground at the word vampire and says in a disgusted voice Nasty blood suckers, only good one is a dead one!

yep! you can take her normal crossbow. all yours!

And with that you are all cleaned up, healed, and ready. Where to?

Gog turns to Beorn and says, "Thanks for the healing friend!" Gog listens to Peat explain and has a surprised expression on his face. "I think we must carry on as far as possible to prevent this horror from going any further." He then carefully cleans the blood from his axe with a cloth and burns it.

Peat takes the crossbow and whatever bolts she had. He loads it, then wields the sickle in his other hand. He motions to the nearby door to the west. "Check in here, then? Probably not anybody in there, or surely they'd have heard the commotion ..."
