Well folks, I don't know who will stick around to read this, but I thought I might give some closing thoughts. It's been nearly two years since we began this little adventure, and this has been one of my most fun campaigns. The character dynamic was interesting, and it was a shame that we all seemed to get burned out. I know Magnus originally was playtesting this adventure, and I think it turned out well, I hope he can see it completed someday. Its been swell.
So be it then, I hope you at least got some good playtest notes. It been fun, but i guess these guys aren't going to live nor die, but rather... fade away.
Alric continues to follow Edelle
With the Elemental slagged, Alric moves up the maze as best he can toward the Stag, following Edelle where possible.
Seeing as the crystal elemental rises up before him, Alric lashes out with a furious barage of attacks, claws and even teeth darting out in a blur.
Crit threat on the Bite Damage
I may be going slow, but Im in for the duration.
Drawing a metamagic rod, Casting Extended Protection from Fire
I put in my earplugs and follow. Likewise
Well, time waits for no one.... still....
Hmm. So why does the world need protection if we don't?
So whats protecting us from music? Alric picks an oppertune time to wander by.
Alric seems happiest in the feast hall, sampling small amounts of liquid as it turns into anything and everything. He seems lost in thought, and taps idly on the table. A pattern starts to emerge from the noise.
there is nothing here but past. You have it mounted and carved in here and in the other chamber. And there is no future left anyhow, this is the time of endings, not beginnings.
Alric picks up a small contraption that resembles a flat wooden box bound in metal. There is a series of holes running along the long edge.
Spoiler: It produces a plaintive crooning sound when blown into. A harmonica
Alric downs his drink, relieved that the pounding in his head stops.
Alric takes a glass and holds it, waiting to see the effect on the others.
What's a s-sawng? Alric asks, stumbling slightly over the unfamiliar word.
Producing two daggers from his pocket, Alric charges them with magic energy and attacks the wall.
now or never. Nuke the wall, if it stands, I have some knives to chip at it that i won't mind losing.
Maybe we could try the rocks. No one cares if we break the scenery.
Would lightning even be a good clearer? It's not like you see lots of lightning craters. Even acid might not affect crystal, if its anything like glass.
Alric stumbles down the tunnel, hampered by his fingers still stuffed in his ears.
Well, don't just charge it! Alric rants, the sound itching at his ears.
will
Im curious how you intend to collect. Alric quips as he kicks a blood stained crystal with his boot.
Alric gets up and moves to the entrance of the tunnel area. Ceasing to focus on maintaining the illusion. [/ooc]3 rounds till fade away[/ooc]
DM:
acrobatics
Alric falls, but rolls with the landing, continuing to concentrate on maintaining the horde of illusory devils. Moving deliberately he draws the wand of cure moderate and tosses it lightly to Teri.
With a quick glance to the flying beasts for reference, Alric Summons up an projection of a flock of the creatures swarming around him and his allies. Darting about and threatening the approaching giants.
From his vantage in the cart, Alric gestures at the incomming foe. Bolts of force race from Alric's fingertips to strike the wounded giant.
Seeing Guthar move his mouth, Alric Yells back What!?
Initiative
Will
Using message cantrips, Alric relays his thoughts
hp roll
did we setle on a fast zombie or a skeleton?
Its quite all right, I have another
Thanks, and watch out for Sly, hes more trouble than you realize.
We actually lost money from our original starting wealth. Our loot mainly consisted of winning our old stuff back from the drow. I think I have an extra bow to sell off though..... maybe that can pay for a carriage.
Alric looks for anyone who is looking to buy a bow. Trade in for the cart would be fine.
Lets see: a fast zombie is faster, and has more hit points and +2 str.
Both get Natural Armor, but the zombie gets an advantage due to extra hit dice. Both get +2 dex. Overall, The fast zombie seems superior Too bad no one is selling a bloody skeleton: those things are nigh indestructible.
Alric picks up two sets of earplugs, redundancy payed off in the past. He also looks around to find if there might be a way to replace the periscope he lost to the drow. I'll chip in for the cart.
I don't think we have the cash to turn cavalry, but if we get a cart, a single horse would let us travel nonstop.
Earplugs sounds good. Should we see about a zombie horse?
Alric just glares sullenly at Sly's back.
This might be our time, Sly looks like hes about to do something rash.
