Falxi's page

As he sees the crowd start to gather, Falxi's face shimmers into a nondescript surface elf's.

"Thank you for the help, my friends." he says, quietly, to the group of adventurers. "Without you, we never would have been free of Belcorra's yoke."

He glances over their shoulder at the collapsing wreck of the lighthouse. "I'm sure my people were able to flee in time. There are secret tunnels and a number of contingencies for earthquakes. I must return to them to help rebuild."

"Quickly, we must flee!" Flaxi makes sure all of hi companions are ambulatory, then starts to lead the way out of Belcorra's chambers.

Will: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 23

Falxi's head is ringing.
"You think that will stop me, specter?"

He begins a battle dance and swings the lantern at Belcora, then follows up with a flurry of blows.

unarmed: 1d20 + 20 - 4 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 20 - 4 + 1 = 32 for bludgeoning: 2d6 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (6, 6) + 6 + 1 = 19

Will (Hero Point): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (17) + 16 = 33

Rewind!

Falxi completely shrugs off the spell.

"We'll spell your end, Belcorra."

He grabs the lantern from Zin and sprints across the battlefield. He swings the device at Belcorra, activating the emerald fulcrum lens.

melee attack: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (6) + 19 = 25

Will: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 19
Reflex: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (8) + 19 = 27

The illusory cave-in buries Falxi completely!

Falxi nods. "My people will be free of Belcorra's yoke."

He waits in silence for a moment. "I can only hope that helping all of you will make up for my people making a deal with her in the first place."

"Back to that area, then." Falxi agrees. "We should watch out. Whatever dangers waylaid the original owners are likely still lurking around."

Falxi comments to Zin, "You are merciful--a quality we don't see down here often."

He continues to attack.

Well, that was probably bound to happen.

Falxi slides into his battle dance and slices at Khurfel.

Falxi calls out to the guards in Aklo.

"No need to snarl. We are here for a simple reason: Give us the lens that you have in your possession."

Dioplomacy: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (2) + 16 = 18

"In my experience, they are not very reasonable, but perhaps they will acknowledge that we are a superior force and give us what we need." Falxi is unaccustomed to the peaceful ways of his still-new companions.

"That was a good opportunity to rest. We'll need all of our strength to take on those monsters and win back the lens." Falxi feels comfortable enough with his companions to let a hint of misgivings creep into his voice.

Falxi looks up from pursuing the research journals, "Well, this answers many questions. It seems that even that destructive scourge feared to bring the power of all four lenses together."

Falxi steps up and attacks the undead knight again.

Falxi continues his performance and slices at the knight, then steps away to put some distance between himself and the enemy.

Falxi reels from the heavy blows of the creature. He continues his performance and darts back after making two strikes.

Falxi begins his battle dance, approaches the golem, and makes two quick slices with his sword.

If I fall on the grease, I'll stand back up instead of attacking.

After we are good to go...

"No luck finding the lens, yet. I think there was a structure on the shore of the lake. Let's check it out."

C?

"I wouldn't say no to it. We were lucky to survive tangling with a dragon." Falxi looks at his companions with appreciation. "You are all powerful allies. I'm lucky to have met you. Perhaps we do have a chance against Belcorra."

Falxi hisses in pain as the dragon attacks him, though he strikes back in his dance of battle.

He'll be flat footed from the crit effect.

AC 29 (If things get crazy, I'll teleport back to Zin. Thanks for the heal!

Bolstered by Akkaboo's magic, Falxi has the confidence to close with the dragon. He glides through battle forms and seems to slip through the space between himself and then dragon effortlessly. He slices at the serpentine creature.

Falxi quakes to see the great dragon, he struggles to escape from the tentacles, then shouts some encouragement to his teammates through the waving arms.

Maybe D? Looks like the biggest area left.

"Agreed." Falxi makes sure his sword is loose and steps quietly down the side passage.

"Nor I. I'm sure it can find easier prey somewhere around here--hopefully it won't be back."

Pretty banged up!

With the monster focused on Wan, Falxi ventures a battle dance, then rushes in to attack.

Falxi's bones creak as the creature crushes him, and he struggles to slip out of the creature's grasp.

"I can scout ahead. I wonder what that sound is?"

Stealth: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (6) + 20 = 26

I'm decent at Theivery, but not that good.

"Well, we could knock," Falxi suggests sardonically. "I doubt we'd find a warm welcome from anyone around here. Perhaps there is a key hidden nearby, or in the possession of someone else in the caverns."

"You feeling alright, Wan? What a strange creature. Seemed to have a taste for your inventions."

Falxi strikes out at the beast again, then raises an shield of power between himself and the beast.

Well, at least I inspired courage.

Falxi waves his sword in an intimidating display, hoping to send the creature back into its burrow, then attacks.

"I don't like the look of the fungi on that island. Shall we explore the cave first?" Falxi appreciates the role of fungus in clearing away nature's detritus, but knows how dangerous it can be, underground.

"We'd be happy to help if we can. Do you know how to access lower levels?"

"Sacrifice you? To whom? What were those urdefhans up to?" Falxi hands the deep gnome a canteen of water.

Flat-footed if that's a crit.

"Don't worry, Wan. Just step where I step."

With Follow the Expert, that will go up to a +14

Informed by Wan, Falxi says: "They could see through my magic, but I still know the ways of these caverns fairly well. IF you follow me, we have a good chance of sneaking by."

I have Quiet Allies and I'm Master in Stealth, so we'd only need to roll once. I think it would be at +14, just quickly glancing at stats. Do we want to try to sneak?

"I can obscure us from view. Does anyone recognize those fiends?" Falxi prepares to draw on the stillness of the caves.

I can cast invisibility sphere.

"Agreed. Belcorra has all sorts of monstrosities working for her, it seems." Falxi gathers the weapons from the piles of goo, intent on making sure that they are destroyed.

Falxi presses his advantage on the one he badly wounded.
