Astrid reels momentarily under the sloth-creature's mental assault but quickly recovers and grins a feral grin.

"Ha! You'll have to do better than that."

Astrid has a moderate dread rune on her armor. Blue will need to make a DC29 will save in order to reduce their frightened below 2

"You're a slippery bastard, I'll give you that. Looks like it's time to get mean." The ulfen focuses the sloth creature in her steely gaze and strikes.

If that attack was a crit then blue is off-guard until the start of Astrid's next turn and white takes 5 electrical damage. Astrid has intimidating glare.

Astrid blubbers for a bit but soon recovers and heads for the spellcaster. "That's enough of that." She tries for a headlock.

Also since Astrid entered her Paragon's Guard stance she has her shield up at all times giving her a 36 AC

Oops I misread the description for wave of despair. I thought I had to do the second roll at the end of my turn not at the start. Ignore the quick draw attack that Astrid made since she would be slowed for her whole turn.

Astrid frowns as an unfamiliar emotion washes over her. She glares at the creature that caused it. "Whatever you did to me, I don't like it. Looks like I need to introduce you to Stormsóknarmaður." She turns to the creature in front of her. "Get out of my way."

She gives the greenish creature a mighty shove before raising her shield and lashing out with her sword.

Astrid pulls out a mug and pours herself some ale. She steels herself before quickly drinking her elixir of darkvision. She promptly washes out the foul taste with a swig of ale.

"Ugh! That was awful. Almost makes me nostalgic for one of your worst, Quin. Remind me about that the next time I complain about one of your brews."

The shield maiden makes her way to the bridge, occasionally sipping on her ale, careful not to over indulge on this trip. She examines a spot on the bow and runs her hand along the wood. She smiles as she finds and reads her signature that she carved there all those months ago.

"I still think we should have named her Aslynn's Lament. Or maybe Hag's Nightmare."

She carefully double checks the equipment she purchased for this mission then turns to watch the landscape pass by.

Astrid eyes the berry suspiciously for a moment before shrugging and eating it.

Lydia takes in the sight of the airship, "Any of you know anything about this?" she asks, not having helped acquire it herself.

An imposing Ulfen woman in heavy armor smiles at the sight of the airship. "Do I know anything? Ha! I'm the one that stole it out from under Aslynn's warty nose."

She looks incredulously at Arrus. "What do you mean you don't know any of us? Urxehl's Taint Arrus! You were there when I stole it. It's me Astrid Gertasdottir, shield maiden and famed adventurer, stealthier than moonlight and fiercer than a thunderstorm. I've killed more men than winter and drunk enough ale to sink an armada. I've ridden dinosaurs into battle and frightened a demon lord back into hell. Heh, and stolen a magical airship from a night hag. And don't worry about her coming back to claim it." She pats the hilt of a cold iron shortsword at her hip. "Hagsneiðari and I made sure she won't be bothering us."

The shield maiden suddenly has a revelation. "Oh wait. I did get a haircut. That's probably why you didn't immediately recognize me."

Astrid scowls. "Too dangerous? Keep it safe? Good gods, you sound like a bunch of old women. Forewarned is forearmed. The more we know about the enemy the better equipped we are to stop them. Let Zarta and her egghead mole men down in the archives study the accursed thing. If anything goes wrong we'll be here to stop it."

She pats the hilt of her sword for emphasis.

Astrid upends her spacious pouch on a nearby table, dumping an entire library along with a few of the ulfen's personal items.

"Ha! There you go! It's bound to be in there somewhere." She grins broadly as she repacks A few items.

Astrid looks up from her looting. "What's that Quin? You want to take the books to The Drunken Packhorse? Hmm...normally I like to do my drinking at The Pig and Whistle but The Drunken Packhorse is good for a change of pace. The service isn't as good but the brawls are better. We should probably drop the books off at the Vaults first though. Waterfall is expecting that journal. It's gotta be one of these books, right? Although I was kind of expecting to find it in some sort of cottage and not a monster-filled library." The shield maiden shrugs and resumes her task of stuffing books into her satchel.

I haven't been keeping very close track of bulk inside of Astrid's spacious pouch since I'm not even close to the 25 bulk limit. I should have at least 21 bulk available for books. If we can scrounge up some more containers Orin and Astrid can carry a lot more.

"Well that looks like our ride home. Let's toss a bunch of those books in my magic bag and head out."

Astrid takes a closer look at the glowing tapestry.

"Hmm... It seems to be referencing a specific location related to the Dark Tapestry. Looks like the Citadel of the Black on Aucturn. My Amma Nanni says that the citadel is a reference to the mountainous tower of Kadeth, the home of Nyarlathotep. Ha! She tells the best scary stories."

Sorry, I copy pasted intimidating strike for my second attack but neglected to change it to strike afterwards. So basically my turn was-intimidating strike (2 actions), strike, (one action, quickened), and escape ( one action) for a total of four actions.

Sword critical specialization

If that intimidating strike is a crit then the librarian is frightened 2 and must continue to make will saves of DC29 to reduce frightened. They are also off guard until the start of Astrid's next turn. That won't really matter much for anyone in melee since we already have gang up, but should help Quin's thrown bombs and Rex's bolts.

It sounded like Astrid's demoralize on the librarian was successful. If so it doesn't look like it was applied and would have reduced the crit on Orin to a regular hit. Also Astrid's moderate dread rune would have forced the librarian to make a DC29 will save to reduce their frightened below 2.

Astrid prepares for battle by readying her shield and casting from the scroll in her hand. She glows briefly as the spell takes effect. Satisfied, she shouts a battle cry and moves to engage the Librarian.

Skald:
Onward to glory!

"Now's a good time for that scroll, Rex."

Astrid continues to delay until Rex acts.

Astrid is unimpressed and yawns obnoxiously. "Have you finished your villainous monologue yet or is there more? Sorry. I don't mean to be rude. Go ahead and finish. It's cute." She motions for the creature to continue and yawns again.

Astrid will attempt to identify the same creatures, the gray and white catlike creature, the large purple coneshaped creatures, the blue creature with a head resembling a starfish, and the tall, vaguely humanoid-shaped creature with gray skin and no eyes. Astrid's Occultism is +17

Additionally since we have a lvl 7 scroll of haste Astrid will pull out a scroll of heroism instead of her scroll of haste. If for some reason Rex would rather not cast the lvl 7 haste himself then Astrid could be the one to do that instead

Astrid takes Quinoline's offered elixir and drinks it. "Not bad, Quin. This one was almost tasty. Not like that repulsive vial of demon's nightmares you made for me last time." She shudders at the memory and pulls out a scroll of haste.

Astrid studies the owl statue intently with a puzzled look on her face. "Silence?" She turns to Quinoline. "Hey Quin. Wasn't that the name of the owl belonging to that girl on my team of young pathfinders during that business with Urxehl in the Finadar Forest? What in the seven hells does Waterfall have to do with those two?"

I'm assuming you're all going to heal up one way or another and/or repair your shields. If so, we can just hand wave it. Do you have anything special you'd like to do while healing before we move on to the next encounter?

Quinoline and Orin have continual recovery, ward medic and Quinoline has versatile vials. Between that and pearly white spindles We'll be full in a half an hour or so it looks like GM Tiger is hand waving healing.

"You're looking a little worse for wear, Crystal. Why don't you fall back for a moment and catch your breath?"

Astrid moves forward and attacks.

"So wandering around this maze reminds me of a story my Anna Nanni would tell to my sister and me. There was a widower with 2 children that remarried. His new wife did not care for his step children and hounded to man to get rid of them. She eventually convinced him to take them into the woods and leave them there. The man's daughter overheard the plan and hatched a plan. As her father and stepmother led them into the woods she secretly left a trail of breadcrumbs that she and her brother could use to find their way back home. Some time after her father and stepmother left, she and her brother began to follow the trail but the birds and other animals had eaten the crumbs, leaving the siblings quite lost in the dark woods." Astrid goes on to tell the story of how the pair found a house, were captured by a witch and eventually managed to defeat her and find their way home to find that their stepmother had died and their father welcomed them back with tears in his eyes and everyone lived happily ever after.

"My Amma Gunnhild would sometimes tell us the same story but the children usually got eaten by a bear shortly after their parents leave them in the woods."

Astrid makes a disgusted face as Quinoline drinks from the fountain. "Ugh. Water is for bathing, not drinking." The shield maiden stows her shield and dives into the water.
