Ride DC15: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18
Garridan's horse collapses beneath him but fortuanatle he manages to land on his feet. He approaches the poor beast and lays his hands on it as he prays over it.

CMW: 2d8 + 5 ⇒ (7, 5) + 5 = 17

Garridan quickly realizes he should follow Dimitrio's example and dismounts. Once he has firm ground beneath him he draws his rapier.

horse vs blue DC 14: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
horse vs red DC14: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Garridan vs redDC14: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

I guess we'll find out what they want, Garridan concludes as he draws his rapier.

Garridan silently listens to his companions negotiations with Bartlebe as he realizes he is not a skilled negotiator. He is surprise at Barts forthrightness in assessing the value of the place and realizes they have found the right man.

Later he prepares for the journey and checks to see if his shield and rapier are done. He picks up a few more supplies as he gets ready to leave on the 26th.

As they journey and see the dust cloud Garridan quickly agrees as he begins to move off the side of the road, "I agree lets get out of sight"

sorry, rough day at work will post shortly

Excited at the prospect of returning to where this all began Garridan heads to the Lurch with the rest of the group and thinks, I wonder if that lucky halfling will be there?

Garridan considers the suggestion of hiring Bartlebe and agrees, "I think he would be perfect for the job.

Garridan agrees with Ed's suggestion on finding someone to run their business and responds to the request, "I'll go with you Ed." As they look for a manager he thinks, If we don't start making money soon I may have to divest myself from this investment.

Garridan listens intently to the goings on around him but keeps silent as he has trouble mustering enthusiasm for the journey. He does approach the dwarves about making him a rapier and shield from the sky metal.

Will catch up on the accounting in the discussion thread tomorrow night

Sorry for the short post in the game play thread. I am going to busy all day and might not have a chance to post to later this evening and I didn't want to hold things up.

Garridan listens to Laynes' beseeching, She and I have been on the same side of things. He begins to unconsciously rub his throat, well almost everything. He looks around at his companions, What will become of them if I'm not there to lead and protect them?

He concludes, "For you Layne, I'll run this errand if just to keep you safe and out of trouble. But who will run tavern for us in our absence?"

Fine with splitting CLW wand*2 for 300 gp

Garridan sours at the elf's response, Kwava you paid us a pittance to investigate the island and now it seems you want to use us as human fodder to stop the drow."

"Sounds like an elvish problem to me," Garridan observes. He continues, "Seems like we've already gone above and beyond to bail your people out with little to show for it besides your gratitude."

Garridan laughs spitting his drink at Ed's remarks but quickly sobers as he thinks, Hopefully someone isn't reading about our death in one of those books someday.

Ok I think I would like to use 15lbs on a heavy shield or 2lbs on a rapier, thoughts?

Garridan smiles as he enjoyes the companionship of his mates and raises his mug returning Dimitrio's toast.

At Layne's suggest of changing the name or not opening the place he holds his tongue thinking, Maybe I can buy the others out cheap.

Garridan puts forth his hand to Akron and offers, "Please take the documents you need. Also let me express my thanks Akron and if you ever find yourself in Riddle Port make sure to find your way to the Dancing Drow the drinks are on me."

We did rename the place the Dancing Drow right? If not insert proper name above

"Aye, just give me a minute to catch my breath," Garridan responds to Ed's request. He takes a moment, shutting his eyes and kneels down in supplication to his god. Miraculously, his wounds begin to close before your eyes.

Nice story. But he needs to understand that the ship, the cash box, and all the goods on board is our booty not his to be given away. Garridan thinks as he listens to Akron. He picks up the belt Ed pointed out and says as he looks at Zinchers body, " you will not be needing this." Looking around to his companions he asks, "Does anyone mind?" If there are no objections he puts the belt on.

Cure MW: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (6, 1) + 6 = 13
Cure MW: 2d8 + 6 ⇒ (6, 7) + 6 = 19

"Almost had my last call," Garridan grimaces through the pain as he replies to Layne's inquiry.

round 1
Looks like we fight, Garridan thinks as he hears Layne's remarks.

He quickly calls for the Lucky Drunks Favor as he draws his rapier and strikes at Zincher.
Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Crud this won't end well, Garridan thinks as he sees Zincher and his men. Seeing Lief engage the man Garridan takes the opportunity to move closer

Move 30' closer

Garridan follows Layne toward the docks and trys to encourage the party, "I still think our best course of action is to steal the ship and avoid any unnecessary confrontation."

Garridan fumes with anger but holds his tongue fearing he will say something he might regret. When he has had a chance to think about their situation he chimes in, "What's done is done. Now we need to figure out a way off this island and what we're going to do with this information." Looking to Dimitrio and Layne he asks, " Do we have any magical means to contact Sam?"

Trying to be practical he adds' "we don't need to fight Zincher as ll we need to do is make it to his ship first and steal it. Also, if we kill him all this information is worthless."

Trying to appeal to his friend Garridan says, "Can you think of a better way to keep an eye on Zincher than to be on the same ship as him. Listen if you'd rather fight off akatas for the next couple of days than get home to our own beds so be it."

He turns to the group, "We can hang around here for a few more days or hitch a ride back with Zincher. What do you think?"

Looks like we dodge one there, Garridan thinks as he tuns and looks a t Lief, or just delayed the inevitable. He shakes his head and asks Akron before he leaves, Do you have room for five more on your ship?"

I knew Ed's new found tolerance of Zincher wouldn't last long, Garridan confirms to himself. " Nothing wrong with taking a little peek as long as we leave it at that for now," he adds to the discussion.

"Well, since we are here we might as well take our time searching it," Garridan offers. Continuing, "Ed do you think this place is safe to set up a camp for tonight?"

"Who did we save? That body over the cliff? No, that was too recent in comparison to the story, right? The wraith!?"

Kaylayne looks at Garridan. "What makes wraiths, warrior?"

Knowledge (Religion): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

Garridan scratches his head for a moment as he considers his answer, "Well Layne as far as I recall wraiths are undead creatures born of evil and darkness and are made when one is killed by one."

i thought your HP were low in the last encounter.

Feeling like his old self after the fine wine Garridan makes his way toward Layne and Dimitrio. 'We might as well finish it," he says with a look of determination of his face.

I agree keep the cure Mods, always good to have.

After hearing Layne's berating of Lief Garridan begins to smile as he thinks, I'm really beginning to like that girl. That though abruptly ends as he remembers the slashed throats she left in her wake at the temple, not a much more then a month ago. Eyeing Layne with a bit more trepidation he takes another swig of his wine.

Garridan frowns confused as Ed attitude, "Ah right you are, Ed. I'm glad to here you are starting to look at things rationally again." He raises his mug to his lips and downs some more wine, "It is about time you stopped with your worrying about Zincher and his plans, we're really in no position to do anything about them any way." He smiles after Ed leaves, "More for the rest of us, I guess."

I've taken a MW rapier (from the previous chamber) and am sharing a bottle of wine.

"This is good wine," Garridan comments to his companions as the sit deciding their next course of action. "Ed your letting you dislike of Zincher cloud your judgement." He takes a sip of wine, "For example we are here and we are not in league with the drow. The Mages were here and are not league with the drow. Many came from Riddleport looking for wealth, that does not mean they are connected to the drow."

He stands up and stretches as he concludes, "I think Lief has the right of it, Zincher will be more concerned with what we've found. So we best be careful."

As they sit around their makeshift table he shurgs,"Sounds like a problem for the elves to deal with."

When he joins the others, he helps search through the cave contents. Getting to the wine, Lief pushes it aside, and waves Garridan over. "You'll probably want to consider this for your personal stores..."

"Very nice," Garridan agrees. "Does anyone want to take a little nip now," he asks as he searches for his mug.

Since Layne seems to have everything well in hand Garridan will begin searching the bodies and then the room. Upon hearing Layne's concern for Dimitrio he remarks, "Deep breathes Dimitrio every thing will be okay. We're here to look after you."

Will use detect magic.

Also if you need healing it will be quicker if you roll the dice, I'll keep track of the charges

With Layne's assistance he tries to drag Lief ashore. Garridan produces a wand and waves it over Lief's prostrate form.

CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

"How is everyone else, he asks the others.

28 charges left

Wasn't sure if I had enough movement left

Garridan sees Lief's motionless form close to the surface and reaches in and grabs the young man.

Garridan looks out over the water, from his vantage point and sees the Drow running across the surface of the water. Orc nuggets, he thinks as he watches her retreating form. What he doesn't see concerns him more, where is Lief, he wonders as he tries to peer through the water where Lief landed.

He continues his decent, dropping his shield, and moves to the edge of the water. He says a quick prayer and a wave of energy pulses from his body.

Channel Energy: 1d6 ⇒ 1uses 2 fervors, Gets lief, Dimitro, and perhaps the drow

It was worth a shot

Wil DC 15: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

As the drow steps away Garridan lashes out at her hoping to stop her retreat.

AoO: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
Damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (8) + 10 = 18
Crit: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29
Damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

He rushes down to meet her at the bottom.
Will use agile feet blessing if I need to. Not sure if you want a climb check (If you need one feel free to roll for me. No, I'm not jumping!

Garridan moves around Lief and attacks the witch.

Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26
Damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (6) + 10 = 16

sorry thanks for the nudge

Will Save DC 15: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

Garridan feels another wave of evil attack his very soul and shutters.

Garridan quickly moves across the platform and swings at the closest drow. (Purple)Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

Negative Energy Will DC 15: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Hold Person Will DC 15: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Pain pulses through Garridan's body as he stands there frozen. I am not going to die like this, he screams to himself. Mustering his will he focuses on breaking the evil hold on his body. To his great joy he feels his limbs beginning to move. Unfortunately the light on his sword goes out.

Will Save DC 15: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

What? Garridan thinks as he loses control of his body and cannot move.

Oh crud!

I think this better then the poison, good luck!
