Hezar's page

Go ahead

so i guess we are dead huh.

if ninjena is right they know we are here. At least this will keep us from attack right away and then we can move out of sight.

Can anyone provide some magical cover? Mist or smoke?

so we make it in throigh the gate? Or you mean upbtonthoabmebt we are not detected?

Hezar considers. Let's move. I will carry Apollo up, we might want the ability to track by smell.

Hezar leads the way keeping and eye out for guards

1d20 + 11 ⇒ (14) + 11 = 25 stealth +2 if human is observing
1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17 percep +2 vs human

Sounds like Osuki's plan is the winner, want to put it into the GP thread and we can move on it?

Shiang, Kane what do you think?

poppin over here so we can figure out what the plan is. Hezar may be the one with the most to lose, BUT he is not stupid. lets figure out what we should do.

My thought was that some of us aren't going to be able to stealth so they should wait for the gate to be opened then move in. I thought we could send Apollo cause he is a wolf, and possibly above suspicion to the far side to make a ruckus to pull focus. But that is 3 moving parts and could be dangerous

thoughts?

that was me asking what the plan is. I don't know everyones skills. are we settled on Apollo making a distraction and us trying to move in, or are the heavy hitters going with Apollo, or are they going to be a third group. I think we need a little meta discussion here

so shall I send Apollo to the far side to make a ruckus?

She was an npc from one of the first adventures. One of the folks saved. She has continued to travel since we are al moving to or new keep. She is a bard and has helped the party in combat before.

She went with the others cause it was in theory safer and it cut down on npcs in combat. Oops lol

Do we need to create a diversion for the less stealthy if us, or should we all try to sneak in? I suspect it will not be possible to get in without setting off an alarm but I am happy to try. For a diversion Appllo can certainly do that.

how far is it Kane. We can get close and those of us who are stealthy can see what we can find.

Why did you wait until now to say something. Hezar says quietly We could have been there. Let's move. If anyone must rest then say so. If not we ride.

well while everyone gangs up on Hezar here. Until this moment no one offered an alternative. so until now tracking has been the only way. so lets all be fair. and yes i was just playing my character. i settled the issue via pm cause posting in the thread was making it look more dramatic than it is. i have said i will not do that again, but i also pointed out that given the situation telling the person with the most to lose that they are being useless when no one has proposed a better idea is equally incendiary.

it is a past moment. however, ""It may feel better to drive yourself into the ground, so that you may say that you did something," impied that he is wasting time, that he is doing more to harm than help. which is simply not true. he is following the trail, we are not tired yet and no one has presented a knowledge local to guess where to go. Hezar took offense to being told that he is being useless and only doing so out of guilt. All of which is false.

in any event i don't think anyone is actually mad.

As I said Matthias is anyone has a real suggestion of where they are going then speak up and I will lead us there, but until someone does I will follow. However if no one knows where they are going then we have no choice but to let me track them.

You see you speak as if you know all because of your longer life span. Once before I have met one that threw such in my face. Arrogance does not become you. Perhaps you have seen worse, perhaps I have. But neither of us knows.

We are both stressed. We have been betrayed by a companion and a friend taken as a possible sacrifice. He drops the line of thought.

Lafali goaded me into battle. I will not let Nijena do it as well.

If you know a faster way I am all ears but until someone suggests one. I will continue on until I am too weary to be effective.

I hold no guilt. I hold urgency. You speak of demons and what you have seen. You were not at the tomb with lassathor. You do not know horrors. When you speak speak wiser. Speak from a place of knowledge not assumption.. He replies as he continues to follow he trail.

I will reply that you invited it by challenging Hezar. After all you basically said he is going to kill Belina and is going to get tons of people killed. Doing so when in no way have we been told that we are tired and need rest, it just said that the DCis higher. So in that regard you badassed Hezar. So you leave him with the option of do what you say, or look weak or just ignore you. I would say that was equally unkosher. that said I am happy to roll the dice if you wish, but if you challenge him on THIS issue he is going to react. I think you were just looking for trouble, which really is uncool.

1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 4 + 2 = 23 init to grab, then to speak (a free action) and release a free action

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25 for the grab itself

Hezar grabs Nijena by the tunic, robe or whatever

Do not speak to me of pride, fool. These are monsters that will kill without a thought, that will sacrifice t a whim. Will you be responsible for yet another death by waiting. If you are not helping you are hindering. If you are hindering, go hinder elsewhere.

He releases and moves back to the trail

I'll not stop.

Hezar stops to whisper a prayer over the two bodies, and commits their faces to memory, then move on.

1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 9 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 25 Hezar finds the trail and continues.

1d20 + 9 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 9 + 2 + 2 = 31 favored terrain and favored enemy bonuses on the survival

1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12 geography if that can help at all.

Hezar and Apollo lead the way, with Apollo tracking by scent to make sure they stay on track

the first one to cross anyone before I say so will die by my hand. Now shut up stop arguing and move!

Just stop! We have people to rescue, the rest we will sort out later! Hezar growls

Kane and I have our differences but we have put them on hold for now, and you, Ryland, will do the same!

oops missed that DAvin!!

Davin perhaps I should hold onto these arrows? I would not be surprised if we faced more demons.

well you took a beatdown huh?

[dice=channel 1]2d6
[dice=channel 2]2d6

Anyone still hurt after that?

** spoiler omitted **

Davin did you get this?

Hezar pauses and considers Kane. We do not agree in everything. But your assistance and concern is both accepted and deeply appreciated. I thank you. Together we shall bring her back. Hezar returns the gesture, though he is smart enough not to squeeze too hard to avoid having his hand crushed.

Let us track them. the channelling should have healed everyone up I think.

1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 9 + 2 = 19 Survival to find tracks
1d20 + 8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 8 + 4 = 19 Hanlde Animal to get Apollo to Track, he can use scent

Let us take Marius and Tethys bodies then

We must do something to keep them from rising again, being attacked from behind will do us no good.

He whispers to Apollo

It's ok boy, you did well. I know you tried to protect them all. Your safe now. Shhh.
As he waits he gently pets Apollo and cleans his wounds take 10 on heal

Hezar picks up Apollo and then finds where Tethys' body is, and he takes a lock of hair from it as well.

Mathias can you heal Apollo?

I suspect he will be able to track these monsters.

We should bury the bodies.

He returns the 14 cold iron arrows to Davin

Apollo! Come!

Hezar calls knowing that his friend would have been smart enough to hide, and be available to help track, perhaps Tethys is around as well.

Not sure if I would know if he was killed from a ways away or not

+1 Comp Longbow (+1 STR)+ DA+RS: 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 + 1 - 2 - 2 = 7 for 1d8 + 2 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 2 + 1 + 4 = 13

Can't see the map on phone but fire at whoever is left and step towards the exit

Nice

Hezar steps back toward the door and sends two more CI arrows flying.

down to 15 CI arrows

+1 Comp Longbow (+1 STR)+ DA+RS: 1d20 + 9 + 1 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (19) + 9 + 1 - 2 - 2 = 25 for 1d8 + 2 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 1 + 4 = 10

summab#%~$!

Hezar roars in rage and anguish

WAHH????!!! You mean multiple years in this game and I didn't know that?

MAP REPOST

holy crud, it is still up! I am afeard! 17 CI left. See I knew you were super intelligent and awesome!

That's it?! Where is Belina and Apollo?!

I fire at B cause that one doesn't have cover and I don't know much about spells

I fully expect it to be a move action...heck if I was DM that is what I would rule, but a fellow can dream

either way the arrows are now CI

I will move you. So DM just let me know if that is a swift or a move...btw have I told you how intelligent and awesome you are?

Davin I requested last page that you toss me your quiver...if he does DM what are the actions required? I was thinking a move to toss and above to grab?

davin toss me your quiver!

Note to self make some cold iron arrows!

I will put you on the map Davin, somewhere near the middle cause of the middle/trap
