Haruka Shiraboshi's page

thats ok by me, I whont have much time to post in the next two month anyway.

I am willing to wait

Haruka looks up as Laurine vanishes into the darkness
'I failed another friend, Lord Daikitsu, again I was unable to save her. Am I just to weak ... But there is still a chance to save her.'

brought back from her thoughts by Oseis voice, the Miko looks first at Balek then at the aberration "My healing magic is spend, but with some help I should be able to get him back to consciousness atleast. And what is that creature? Will it be satisfied by eating the dead or will we have to fight it?" I would prefer to give them a correct burial, but we have neither the resources nor the time to do so. Telling some clerics of Pharasma or another god of the dead must be enough for now.'

"Laurine, drop the fragment, it will be your death"

Haruka moves back in front of Laurine "Laurine, have I ever lied to you or done something to harm you? Who has saved you from the dwarf and his companion? Please, Laurine let go of that stone, it will kill you.

ready action on stone drop (if possible, picking it up and throwing it away, if not just picking it up)

'Lord Daikitsu, grand me strength against evil' activate healing judgement
Haruka takes a step back, mumbles a short prayer and points at Balek. cast stabilize at Balek(I think he is still bleeding)
"Laurine, please let go of the fragment, it's power will kill you.
Laurine, look into my eyes if you belive I am lying"

what happend with my casting protection from evil? do I need to roll a touch attack or something?

fort save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

"Laurine have I ever given you a reason to not trust me? I will touch you now to help you."

protection from evil on Laurine

"Laurine, you need to find yourself again. You know that you can trust me, I have never lied to you, I stayed by your side when you needed me, so trust me now, accept this spell, it will help you" Haruka moves closer to Laurine and reaches out with a softly glowing hand, after muttering a short praier in Minkai.

cast protecton from evil on Laurine

" Laurine please stop. Lashing out at the people around you won't help, even if you are confused. Just focus on my voice and breath in and breath out..." Haruka continues her calm walk while speaking.

if she doesn't react with aggressive action

The miko continues to speak with a clear, friendly voice "Laurine, remember who you are, remember why you came here, remember where you came from, remember the people who care for you"

if she does

The miko continues to speak with a clear, stern voice "Laurine calm down and tell us what you want, we don't need to fight,we are all stuck down here together"

ready protection from evil

As Takka recently switched class, could I use the journey through the lightless underworld to open her senses to the spiritual world? (switching to shaman (animist)(also first the miko motive better))

"thank you, Lady Felice."

"Sir Constantine, I would give Lady Felice into your care."

Haruka walks calmly, but not slowly, towards Laurine.

Haruka could keep the stone, she has a save bonus against items and guarding /sealing evil magics fits with the miko theme.

Laurine should still have protection from evil(cast before the fall.

Haruka looks between Felice and Laurine, deciding on a course of action and wispers to the girl she is lending support to [smaller] "Lady Felice it might be necessary that I interfere in this situation with Laurine, to do that I would have to let go of you."

"Alderman Gwerm if you know the way to Lord Hulrun we will happily escort you there, if not then calm down and help, it's an Alderman's duty to serve the community. We can survive together or die alone. Each man and woman must work for our safety with all ability"

welcome back

"Lady Felice, I would take a look at your leg, if you allow"

if yes

"please keep still, it might hurt a bit"

heal: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

heal +8 :)

Haruka raises her bow, nocks an arrow and shoots at the demon.

hit-shooting into melee: 1d20 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 1 - 4 = 6
damage: 1d8 ⇒ 7

initative: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
I will wait a bit before posting my actions, as everyone will act before me

Haruka will continue to fire at it

I can ignore difficult terain with my quick feet if needed

Haruka lowers her bow and waits for the beings reaction.

I don't tink talking will work with a demon (if it was a devil it would certainly be worth a try).
Scaring it of might be difficult ( do demons still reform at their homeplane when they die?)

once anyone starts combat
Haruka draws the bow and lets her arrow fly at the demon.
hit: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
damage: 1d8 ⇒ 2

Haruka stops her searching, focussrs on the newest threat and tries to remember anything usefull about creatures matching the demons description.
knowledge(planes): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19

The miko readys her bow and takes aim, ready to shoot, should the demon notice anyone.

random distance: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 4) = 14 * 5 =70

Does Haruka have any idea concerning Laurine's location?

Good luck (and patience) for your report

"Haruka here, bruised but otherwise fine"

Haruka starts searching for Laurine, using a circular search patern(right handed) checking every found body for sights of life, speaking a small prayer for the dead and making sure the demons are dead, using an bow to put an arrow int each head.

After recovering from the impact Haruka checks if her limbs are in working order.

Finding them all working but bruised the miko starts feeling for her bow.

if she finds it
She takes her bow and nooks an arrow. Holding both in her left hand she makes a gesture with her right and speaks in

damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4

reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
reflex: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
sayonara, it will be a long way down

"you are no monster, Laurine. What makes people monsters is not their heritage but their actions. And you have done nothing to justify calling you that. Coming here might not have been the smartest decision, but the same could be said for all of us."

"we should do the smart thing now and get out of here, together with the rest of the team"

Haruka touches Laurine, muttering in

"that should help you"

I suspected crazy molly to be more than a crazy lady (wanted to sense motive her) but would never have expected a dragon.(expected either a demon infiltrator or some kind of angel). Also WOW (great work Douglas (are you a fantasy author? If you aren't then you should think about becoming one))

Haruka will try to help Laurine, afterwards she will take out her bow and shoot at anything coming too close.

Haruka turns uttering a very unmikolike curse into taking a deep breath. 'Immediate problems first' knowledge(planes/religion/arcana)would a protection from evil help Laurine: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

Perception(Felicia, race(human,tiefling,...) age(young woman can be used for quite a long timespan), anything else interesting): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Haruka waits till Osei has finished his current buisness with the Marquis.

The miko stands up, walks over to the marquis group, bows to him(formal and polite) "greetings Marquis", bows to weasel-face(just not disrespectfull) ",baronet" and bows to Felicia (formal and respectfull, but friendly) "and Lady Felicia".

"I do not want to further interrupt your proffesional discussion" and returns to her seat

How difficult would it be for Haruka to become lawful neutral? (to take levels as zen-archer)

sense motive (Marquis): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
sense motive (weasel face): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
sense motive ( Felicia): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

sense motive (Laurine, how would she react to Haruka sanding up and greeting the Marquis, followed by sitting down again): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

I think we need as much close combat people as we can get, we only have SCG for melee, Balek and Haruka prefer ranged combat and Osei is a wizard.

Would it be possible to switch from iconoclast to spellbreacker when the retraining time comes(it fits the miko idea better and is more useful)

Haruka will try to protect Laurine no matter what and try to find someone to help her.

If the priest continues to attack her she will try to flee with Laurine, if escape is not a available option she will use her bow at range and her staff and brand (writing "no duty") in close combat (nonlethal if possible, lethal if pressed (with stabilize))

Haruka swings her staff at the priest and uses this distraction to put some distance between herself and the priest
I assume that Laurine moves backward when Haruka does

"stop attacking us, or I will be forced to treat you as an enemy", spoken in a cold tone by a miko whose eyes became as cold.

I hope the doors are still open, or open to the outside

what was his spell, or was my spellcraft to low?

Haruka draws her Quaterstaff and takes a defensive stace, putting empahsis on its defensive nature.

"I will defend myself and my friend should you attack or try to imprison us. Staying here as we are right now, till the head priest or someone to fetch him arrives, would be acceptable."

"I fully knew that I could be infected, if Laurines condition is not a heriditary one, when I took her hand and agreed to find her help" adds the miko with determination, giving Laurines hand a reasuring squeze.

spellcraft(identyfy his spell): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

draw weapon and ready action against approach

Haruka interposes herself between Laurine and the priest
to Laurine the miko says "Maybe your right and we should try again elsewhere"
she sights and adds, in a disappointed tone, directed at the priest"and I thought Sarenrae teaches pacience and empathy"

Haruka will try to leaf if the priest doesn't stop his spellcasting and appologises/acts in a way that shows he thinks he made an error of judgement
sense motive: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

Knowlede(religion): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25 what would be a good temple to try next (healing domain and values mercy/redemption)

maybe I will make Haruka an Evangelist, even if I have no idea what Daikitsu's Obedience and Boons are.

Haruka will probably become Lawfull neutral or true neutral along the road. she will be nice, caring and supportive to her allys and vicious to her enemys (which is in line with Daikitsu's teachings ( "reap what you sow " fits a harves deity quite well)), pushing hesitation and doubt away for after the battle.
She will probably be the one to do the messy stuff for the party(everyone beside Osei is either a paladin or driven by the wish to be a hero/knight(/dragon ;) )

if she becomes LN might take some levels as Zen acher.

You don't need a Sense Motive to tell that Laurine is ready to bolt out the door. What do you do?

sense motive;is the priest telling the truth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23

Haruka doesn't think that he is lying, but her main concern right now is Laurines wellbeing (around the worldwound paranoia is a survival skill)

" we should stay, unless you have a good reason not to."

if she doesn't give a good reason

" Sarenrae is the godess of Healing and Redemption, she teaches compassion and peace, her priests would never intentionaly harm someone coming to them for healing" says the miko, ending with a glare at the priest, that promises painfull death if he does.
I assume that the purview and the basics of the teachings of the main goods are common knowledge for someone that was raised at a shrine

dipomacy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

uhm, Takka, you need spontaneous arcane spellcasting for dragon Disciple, but how about blood rager for that prerequisite?
