Sorry guys, I think I might have to drop out of this game. As you may very well have seen from my lack of posting, I've been having increasingly less time to check and post at the Paizo forums. With Figwidget back, you might have enough people to finish this regardless. Best of wishes to you all and good luck.
Welcome back Figwidget, just a short distance to go when we return to the mine.
Carran moves in silence along the roads, blending in with most of the crowd of Alkenstar as he goes along. When Tychi is waved aside, Carran moves slowly after them, intending to listen first to what more news is to be heard. After that he goes throughout the town to do some shopping, buying more arrows and an efficient quiver or two.
Carran nods in agreement to Tychi's statement. "I'll keep an eye out on those halflings. I'm not sure if they've even arrived yet, seeing as we could use Nike's speed to cross the desert again."
Sorry for my absence, had three days without internet before someone told me how to get access to a new network in our apartment block.
Took another level in Ranger, getting my AC stats up with a boost. Done leveling.
Carran lifts his bow and aims for her, his eyes never twitching. "If you do anything else but cure him, you'll die on the spot."
Carran looks over at the Luke Rand and approaches slowly, his hands still on his bow and glancing sideways toward Metruni and her companions. I don't trust her. We'll see if she upholds her end of the bargain. For now let's see if we can Luke back fully. When he's near the Major, he holds his hand before his eyes, waves a bit to check if his sight has returned at all, then murmurs softly.
Carran says as he moves to untie the Major from his place.
Happy holidays everyone, I'll see to levelling Carran to level 14, will have to wait after the holidays though.
Carran seems to rest easy now against the wall, plucking his bowstring and fidgeting with arrows as the others talk. Heh, they mostly do the talking, saves me my breath. Also them asking my questions saves me the trouble of doing it.
Carran frowns and raises an eyebrow at Tychi and Nike. He smells the air in front of him deeply and tries to make out any more scents besides from the ones he can see.
After that he looks at the tiefling and starts to converse with her.
Carran gets close to Nike as well and keeps poised to jump on Nike's back and get away. He keeps his eyes and ears peeled for any signs of either the source of the woman's voice or the source of the hard heels that approach.
Carran takes a 5-foot step back so he has a better aim on whoever is still left standing and unloads a volley of arrows on the group of men before him, focusing on the one that's aboviously hurt the most first.
Carran will unload another volley of arrows on his first target, if he goes down he fires at the next obvious target. (nr. 4)
"Alright, one ogre pincushion coming right up." Carran replies and then procedes to take some arrows out from his quiver and looads the first two on his bow. Then he quickly looks out from cover and fires a single arrow at ogre nr. 2.
"So Tychi? Same tactics on this bunch of ogres? There seem to be more than last time, but luckily there is no spider among them."
Carran nods to tychi with a slight grin. "Good work on that spider Tychi, I didn't look forward to getting hit again with a blast. You too Nike. Let's show that two-headed ogre what's what and take him down a notch as well. But first we should take to the shadows again." Carran will move over into the shadows, back to the corner where the cave turns left and looks around.
Carran unloads a volley of arrows at the ogre from his position.
Carran will wait till the ogre and spider have both passed him, staying very still and quiet, but when both have passed and got to about 90 feet he takes up his bow and aims for the spider.
Carran grunts as he's suddenly hit by lightning, but manages to avoid the brunt of the damage done. "Blast!" Carran quickly moves away from sight and disappears into the shadows deeper inside the cave. "Let's get moving Tychi, cats hate rain and they certainly do hate lightning."
"Alright, I'll escape when we need to. Wait for my first volley and then jump in when you're ready." Carran moves over until he's 80 feet from the first ogre, aims his bow and then unleashes the first volley of arrows against the unaware ogre.
Carran nods, but points with his arm towards the spider. "You're right, but that spider might give us some more trouble. Your idea is good, but risky. I'll take up position some 80 feet away from that chokepoint, I'll fire first then you charge in if that ogre still stands. What do we do if that ogre falls to my arrows? Do you charge in regardless or stay put to ambush the next one?"
"Yeah, you're right let's head west then. Though I'd prefer finding him alive."
Carran looks up and then back at Tychi. "Well I've got no doubt Luke has been taken up with those lifts, but I've got also no doubt that we will be noticed when we take the lift. I could climb up to scout out the place, but that will take some time."
Carran looks for any drag marks or tracks indicating where they took Luke to.
If Carran finds the tracks lead to the elevator, he'll halt at the lift and look up to see if he could climb the wall.
Carran resists the slowing spell and drops his bow and draws his greatsword in the same smooth motion. "Let's get some hits going!"
"Well that's new. Though I don't think I should be too surprised with those golems back inalkenstar." Carran grumbles as he takes aim at whatever construct Tychi's attacking.
"So where now to Tychi? I'd rather not venture into the pit of whatever animal is residing in there. Might be an aurochs that's been put to work in the machinery, but it could also be something more sinister." Carran then points to the lifts.
Carran looks up and down the cave wall beside the lift.
"If Serlek knows what I talk about when I say sword, I would let him pick it up, but I think it's a bit too difficult for him to understand. I'll let him scout out to see if there's still any danger." With that Carran whispers something to Serlek and sets him flying up to where the fight was. Serlke scouts around flapping his wings or perching upon a high rocky overlook, pecks at his feathers and then returns to Carran, making a soft noise which indicates no enemies present. Carran pats Serlek on his back and head and feeds him some of the meaty rations he has in his pack. "Seems everything is secure upstairs, if you're unsure I'll go up and retrieve your whipsword for you. I'll be just a few minutes at most."
Carran nods as Figwidget leads the ohalflings away to relative safety and sighs, knowing all too well that he and Tychi are not in the same situation yet. "Seems we've gotten ourselves in quite the pickle eh Tychi?" The black catfolk says as the last halfling disappears from sight.
Carran looks to the caves and the multiple shadows that lay across, down here and upstairs. "You know, I could sneak up and scout ahead when we're ready. Or Serlek could go out and scout, but he might be better used as a Messenger between us two if needed. Now it's just the two, sorry Nike, three of us we will have to take care in how we approach things. The time of brute force is over, now we need tactics."
Just as a notice I'll be out for the whole weekend starting Friday afternoon. Bot me as needed as I'll probably will not have that much access to a pc.
Carran unloads a volley at Murg-Nurk and shouts back to Nike.
Carran then takes a 5-foot step to the north-east so the other ogre can't charge him anymore.
Carran sees the ogre dragging Luke away and decides to try and take out the ogre in his way and the then the ogre dragging Luke. He loads another batch of arrows onto his bow and fires away at ogre 6 first and then at ogre 4 if ogre 6 goes down.
Carran takes a step further south and unloads a volley of arrows at ogre 3.
Carran quickly retreats further away as he sees the grenades coming close to him and fires a single Arrow at ogre nr 3, aiming at the ogre's legs.
Carran quickly groups up with Tychi and Figwidget, seeing Luke Rand fighting or holding his own against all odds versus the new ogre horde that approaches.
"Drat, and I thought the worst was over with that 'Waldat' fellow down."
Good to hear that, sorry for having to wait on me, I'll get a post up shortly.
Carran quickly takes out his adamantine greatsword as the non-Waldat is trying to leave through the stairs. Then he unloads a flurry of blows against the creature with his sword.
Carran takes a 5-foot step back and fires more arrows at the creature that was once called Waldat. Then steps 5 feet away from it again.
Carran 5-foot steps out of the way of the thing that called himself Waldat and fires a series of arrows at it. "Die you filth! Back to the darkness you came from."
