DM: "Already have..."
Sadrazar flutters about before resting on top of Elrosk's head. "He seems to like you."
DM: "I certainly will head out with you guys."
DM: "Well then one can assume that he was killed last night... Though why do you need him? If you don't mind me asking of course."
Avdol follows Zul to the church. As he walks, he brings out Shadrazar and feeds him a treat.
Avdol will ignore the crowd of people next to the pyre and approach the statue. Placing the orb in the broken hand of the statue he recites the scroll that was found earlier.
After the scroll was used and the orb was back in it's rightful place. Avdol would turn to the group and drop the loot he gathered earlier at the statues base. "Use these in any way you see fit, give them to the town if it so pleases you." He walks over to Gabe and Lys.
Ignoring Akari, Avdol will make his way over to Zul and Elrosk.
As the group leaves, Avdol does a once over around the rooms. Picking up any bows and arrows and such from their previous encounter with the strange cult. "Got to be worth something I suppose."
"Gabe, we have a mission to complete. And I rather not let the town suffer any longer." Advol turns and heads towards the door, patting Elrosk on the back as he does.
"OK, well it appears we have Elrosk now, before any other magic screws with us, I say we leave. Though I'm curious on how Elrosk got to this point, seeing how we needed the orb to get here ourselves. The mirror transported us to a jail of some sort if anyone is wondering." Avdol will gather his things and also look among the bones for other items that they hadon't once owned.
"RA DAMN IT!!!" Avdol shouts with anger! Clearly frustrated with the predicament!
Avdol looks back and forth between Akari and Gabe. "It's mirroring what I say? Wait! Its mirroring what I say! Gabe don't swing at the Avdol you are on, Akari keep swinging on the one you are on!" Attempting an Ear-Piercing Scream on the mirror.
As Gabe's attack heads towards Avdol. Sadrazar suddenly bursts from Avdol's chest. Causing a startled Gabe to just miss with the swing.
"Why did you swing at me Gabe? I'm the real one!"
Avdol will take a step away from his double and cast ear-piercing scream. "Fool, there can only be one ME!"
"What the...? No! You shall
Avdol casts read magic and looks at the scroll. "Ah, this will be useful in repairing the statue and setting things right... hopefully." At Zul's sudden disappearance, Avdol will detect magic in the room. Hoping to gain some insight into where Zul went. Too many people keep disappearing.
Avdol enters the room, patting Gabe on the shoulder. "It seems that a lot of weird things keep happening here. I would take it with a grain of salt." Avdol looks about the room and notices the sunlight coming in through the window. "Like that... Sunlight, I believe we are currently underground..."
Avdol seems to be muttering something under his breath, as if trying to remember something. Following Lys down the path, Avdol will glance back at the orb. In Avdol's Mind: Ra... Give me your wisdom...
"The pillars..." Avdol puts the orb into the golden clasp of the pillar he is currently standing in front of.
"It was vibrating... I didn't want to but..." Avdol reaches out and touches the orb with his bare skin.
Avdol reaches into his bag and pulls forth the Orb. "There is something going on here." Avdol unties the top of the makeshift sack he made for the orb. Leaving the cloth between his hand and the Orb.
Avdol stirs and sits up as Zul speaks. He gets up from the floor and dusts himself off. "Nice little trick Zul." Avdol mentions off handedly. At the mention of visions Avdol will simply nod. "Let's find him and head back to town, we got a job to do."
Avdol sleeps soundly after his first watch dreaming disturbing dreams. The sand of the dessert calls to him. "Has something happened?" Avdol thinks to himself in a topor ridden state. He soon decides he must return to see for himself. It's not like him to have such vivid dreams.
"I'll take first I suppose." Avdol says bringing forth Sadrazar from his chest.
Avdol will glance at Gabe's hand upon his shoulder. Raising his own hand and removing Gabe's, Avdol then turns and walks a few paces before turning to face Gabriel. "Friend... Funny little word... Before Akari cut me down, I was simply speaking my mind, what they could of offered me as a boon for joining them. But alas, my neck would of been cut within a week if I went with that lot... Avdol would walk towards Gabe with emotionless eyes. "I'll be leaving once this job is done, you may keep Akari with you or remove him, it doesn't concern me. I'll only say this, there is only one true god of the sun, and he is very much alive. What could one man hope to accomplish with a dead god?" Avdol then leaves the room and heads back to the main group.
"Sure, gets me away from Mr. Slashymiggy here." Avdol says nodding at Akari.
Avdol would have set the man alight for the man's refusal of his demand had it not been for the fact that he didn't know how able his compatriots were after defeating the burly man. Instead he made sparks crawl along his hands. "I'll just have to BURN you another day and give you an actual reason to wear a mask." He said with a subtle mocking tone as the three past him by. After they left, Avdol would move to the orb that lay on the ground next to some ashes of what he assumes is Lys's handiwork. Avdol takes a bit of cloth from one of the downed spear men and covers the orb in it and ties it off into its own little pouch. "It's safe to assume this is it, magic orbs aren't exactly commonplace. I'd say look around the immediate area, as we have to find Elrosk still. But I rather stay here for the night, rather than travel back to town in the dark where those three could be waiting in ambush."
Avdol would snap awake and notice his wounds were slowly healing. Geof's body lay before him. Him noticing the lone arrow in Geof and the archers descending from the catwalk and Zul and Lys making no attempts to fight them indicated to him the fight was over. Outstretching his hand to Sadrazar and allowing them to mold into one. Avdol stands and brushes himself off and picks up his longspear. As the three begin to walk past, Avdol will step forward and points to the man still wearing his mask with his spear. "Remove the mask, that way I will remember your face among the three of you!"
Sadrazar gets jostled awake and chirps. Looking about he notices Avdol still lying on the floor and flutters over to him chirping and squawking.
Burn my body! ... Doooo iiitttt!
Sadrazar continues to snooze upon Gabe's shoulder.
A loud snoring is heard suddenly from Gabe's shoulder, as Sadrazar now has a snot bubble coming out of his beak and is fast asleep.
Sadrazar will flutter about squawking as Avdol falls. Being intelligent enough to not rush and attack. Sadrazar instead will 5 foot "step" er flutter onto Gabe's shoulder. Should a melee attack come his way he will use bodyguard and distract the attacker. First Attack Targeting Gabe:
+2 dodge bonus for that attack. Second Attack Targeting Gabe:
No dodge bonus. Third Attack Targeting Gabe:
+2 dodge bonus for that attack.
Well that escalated quickly lol
"Well you will certainly need a replacement after I torched the one downstairs... What do you think guys?" Avdol looks to the others, you may be expecting a smile on Avdol's face, when instead your eyes are met with a very serious one, as if contemplating joining them. "What would be my first order if I were to join?"
This would be the time for diplomacy and bluffing :)
Avdol looks about the room with a curious expression looking at the people standing within it and the books that line the many shelves. Slowly Avdol's gaze would trace its way back to the burly barbed brute and to the orb he is now holding. "Which one of you fine people is named Darren? Any of you aware of what's transpiring down in the little town next door?"
Avdol calls forth Sadrazar from his chest. The falcon climbs clumsily up to Avdols shoulder and chirps in anxiety.
"We could just wait here, for as far as we know their is no other way down other than these stairs. But we run the risk of being ambushed from an unforeseen angle. At least climbing the stairs will narrow the gap of ambush possible... again as far as we know."
Avdol will cast detect magic and wait till he can sense each auras presence. If the runes appear magical he will cast read magic to try and discern their nature if any.
"Unfortunatly I didn't see the figure, but there's not much I can do from this far away anyway." Avdol will say in a low tone.
Avdol will bring the satchel and flask to Lys. Avdol glares at Akari after the comment. Turning to Gabe, he clears his throat, "It's a stone tower that exudes a magic aura, if it catches fire, the wizard was an idiot. Him yelling would have already alerted any others as the door was open. The only thing the smell will do if anything will tell them wear the body is as Lys stated. I'm keeping with Elrosk, follow if you wish... I don't take kindly to disrespect, no matter the situation. No Gabe, it's a funeral pyre... albeit quick and no wood..." Avdol will move briskly in the direction Elrosk went hoping to catch up in a few moments, casting detect magic and viewing the other items he obtained.
Avdol will move to the man and loot his body. Smirking to himself Avdol leans close to the now limp body and whispers... "Funny thing about cowards... they tend to live longer... Your still gonna by the way..." Ignoring everything that is transpiring around him, Avdol drags the corpse to the puddle of lamp oil and sets it ablaze. Avdol's eyes seem to burn with intensity far beyond that of the fire as the corpses flesh begins to sear. "You may think you have one thing... when you actually... are dead and ." Avdol says in a sarcastically cocky tone, mimicking the man.
As soon as the first card would appear in the man's hand Avdol's flask would crash into the man's face as the sudden movement of the man's hand would seem hostile. He bursts into bluefish red flames. "Cocky men as easily as any other!"
Damn, I keep messing up and post as my main alias for some reason...
Avdol casts detect magic and scours the room.
Avdol quickly loses interest in the task at hand however and starts prodding a spider web... If he finds any magical writing however he will cast read magic and read it, explain it to the party and then continue his epic prodding!
Avdol follows Lys towards the door and try's to silently shut the one they entered. Keeping to the darker areas of the room as the group walks
