We have been forgotten or abandoned :(
Anybody seen the DM recently?
Elthaslas reaches through the broken pane and pulls the pins holding the window shut. He the opens the window and slips inside. He nocks and arrow to his bow as he looks around the room for something to use as a rope to help the others get up onto the porch and inside. to pull the pins on the window
The Gods hate us. Elthaslas says in a resigned voice. He then attempts to kick the window in.
Seeing Edgar hesitating Elthaslas goes to the center window and attempts to open it.
Once he gets Edgar up on the porch roof Elthaslas attempts to follow him.
After several tries he is able to jump up and catch the edge of the roof
He struggles to pull himself up onto the the porch roof but eventually manages it. Lets get out of this rain. he says to Edgar.
Edgar then. I will lift you up. Elthaslas bends down and cups his hands to enable Edgar to climb onto his shoulders.
Halfling! Elthaslas call to Edgar shouting over the sound of the rain There is a window do you think you could fit through it. he says pointing to the window on the second floor.
The door is too sturdy. We won't be able to force it. Elthaslas says. Weren't there windows on the second floor? Maybe we could get in through one of them. Elthaslas goes back into the pouring rain and squints up at the building trying to see one of the windows on the upper floor.
did anyone see any windows or other entrances we can use? Elthaslas asks as they try to force the door.
Elthaslas tries to force the door open. when he is unable to force the door he runs around toward the back of the building looking for the others or some way into the building.
Hearing the scream Elthaslas runs back inside knocking an arrow to his bowstring as he goes.
Once sure that the gate is securely locked and seeing what he could of the far side of the wall. Elthaslas returns to the meager shelter of the front porch. He waits there for the others trying to here anything over the sound of the falling rain.
The girl supposedly heard horns I am going to check the gate then take a look over the wall. Minous said the girl and the dwarf headed towards the back. Elthaslas says to the others then goes to check the gate and ensure that it is locked and barred. Once sure the gate is secure he will go to the ladder Edden mentioned and climb up it to see if he can see anything on the other side of the wall. to check the gate
minutes later, Minous comes back in, smoking a stick. Minous thinks that your traveling wench is a little crazy. Claiming horns be sounded and what not. Strange woman, but Minous like that and will claim her this evening. She and her dwarf servant went around towards the back all quick like When Minous mentions horns Elthaslas rises from his seat and strings his bow but has to stop halfway through and stare at the man with a look of stunned disbelief on his face as the man continues to speak. When Minous finishes Elthaslas shakes himself and finishes stringing his bow. As he puts on his worn cloak he says to Edden. My apologies again Master Edden. There is no way drawing my sword could have ever detered a cretin like Minous. He has just demonstrated that he is stupider than the mud we had to slog through to get here. How he managed to survive to adulthood is truly a mystery. Before crossing the threshold out into the driving rain Elthaslas asks Is there a tower over looking the wall? once he recieves the answer he hurries out the door after Edgar and Fanriel.
My apologies Master Edden. Elthaslas says as he sheaths his sword. I had hoped that faced with more than just a girl with a dagger Minous might think better of resorting to violence. Elthaslas gives Fanriel a nod as he returns to his seat.
I wouldn't believe an arrogant bigot like Minous if he said the sun rose in the east. Elthaslas says as he moves to stand by Fanriel. He draws his sword, and rests the point agains the floor boards his hands relaxed on the crossguard. Are you a god, Minous? that every word you utter is truth? More likely you are a small minded fool.
I meant nothing by it, only that we are both elves. Elthaslas replies to Dolwen as he settles in a nearby chair. I am also traveling to Middenheim Master Dwarf and would welcome the company on the road if it is anything like today. I had thought I would face brigands at the worst not creatures of chaos. Not in the heart of the Empire.
No fletcher eh. I will have to make due with what I have then. Thank you Innkeeper. Elthaslas says. After he eats Elthaslas goes and makes use of the Baths. He dries his cloths by the fire pit under the bath and when he gets out brushes as much of the dirt as he can from his now dry cloths. clean and dry he goes back to the common room and stops to see how Dolwen is doing. How are you Kinsman? he asks. I am Elthaslas Palemoon of the Great forest.
I was over there at the end of 2006 begining of 2007. I was in Falujah. I had a quiet deployment though. never took fire and the base only got mortered once.
Elthaslas is reluctant to part with so much silver but with hunting for his supper and sleeping under the stars out of the question he pays the innkeepers price. I must be careful if I am to have enough money to get back to the Great Forest. he thinks to himself. Once he is satisfied that his longbow is undamaged he carefully wraps the unstrung bow in its oiled leather cover. When Edden brings his food he asks Is there a fletcher here? I expended several arrows and would like to get more if possible.
I wasn't married when I did the Iraq thing thank goodness. Being single and doing that sucked enough. I don't know how you married guys handled it.
When the entire group finally got moving towards the safty of the Inn Elthaslas waited until everyone else had passed him and took on the role of rear guard. He spent four arrows on the rest of the trip to the Inn on shadows and flickers of movement in the trees. There is no sign that any of the arrows hit anything besides shadows or that the beastman he saw earlier is still there in the trees, but he keeps an arrow knocked anyway. Even when the sound of the horns falls behind and the Inn comes into sight he doesn't relax. He is the last one to pass through the gate into the safety of the Inn. Only when the gate is closed and barred behind them does he take the arrow from his bowstring and return it to his quiver.
Once inside the Inn Elthaslas strips of his sodden cloak and drapes it over the back of a chair near the fire to dry. He then turns his attention to his bow. Carefully drying it and doing what he can to prevent it being damaged by the wet. He pays for a room and food.
ahhh! I don't need stories like that. My daughter is only four months old so I still have all this stuff a head of me
Cricket cricket . . . . . . Cricket cricket
Elthaslas keeps an eye on the beastman in the trees. If we don't hurry and get to the Inn the beastmen will kill us all. We must go now! He says urgently.
Have care. Elthaslas calls to the others. More lurk in the wood.
Daemon's take it. We are in for it now. Elthaslas growls when he hears the horn. He fits an arrow to to his long bow as he hurries along the road. He passes the old man and the children and moves up the road senses straining to detect the Beastmen he knows are there.
Elthaslas blinks the rain water out of his eyes and looks down at his unbloodied sword. I am loosing my touch I sense there was something there but didn't spot the beastmen. I wasn't much help in the fight either. He looks around at the group of travellers making note of those who fought. Seeing the group of childern standing behind him. What are you all standing about for! He yells at the peasents. Move! you think these were the only beastmen in the forest. We aren't out of danger until we are behind the footman inn's walls. Move you fools! Elthaslas will take a moment to sheath his sword, string his bow, and settle his quiver for easy access before following his own advice and hurrying up the road. He grumbles to himself about the damage the rain could do to his longbow.
@Rizz to make a map like I did.
If we all die do we get to reroll new characters or is it game over?
přestanou žít prokletou věc Elthaslas curses at the beastman and cuts at it with his sword but fails to score a hit.
Get out of the way! Stupid Children!Elthaslas cuffs one of the children out of his way and moves in on the nearest beastman. He slashes at the beastman with his sword but only cuts air.
Khaine je koule! Elthaslas swears in Eltharin. He draws his sword and prepares to defend himself.
Eltharin: Khaine's balls
With his bow unstrung and the string stowed safely in his belt pouch to protect it from the rain Elthaslas feels less than confident. His mud caked boots feel as though they are made of lead.
Here is Adventurer#33's Elf hunter hopefully he won't die too horribly |
