"Well done, comrades! I am going to visit Sarenrae's temple now. Farewell!
Assuming there is no objection, Malon slips the ting off the girl’s finger and turns it in with his report to his superiors. It was the reason for the mission, after all.
everyone please sign up here chronicles sign in Done.
"That's a very good question, Malon. Maybe it is better to leave her here for now. But in that case we should close the sarcophagus lid again to keep her safe."
”According to my training in non-magical Healing she is actually alive! Maybe the ring or the Sarcophagus are magical? Could you check, please?”
Kyra examines Junia's body.
That... that cannot be! How is this possible? Suddenly, the cleric looks startled. "My comrades, you won't believe me - but Junia seems to be still alive! I have no idea how this is possible... yet. It could be that magic is responsible, but I am no expert on magic items. Please help me investigate this." Kyra casts guidance on everyone and then detect magic. She checks the Sarkophagus first and then Junia, especially the Ruby ring of the salamander on her finger.
"Let's kill it now!" Kyra again steps up around the ghast and brings her scimitar down.
"Rast? Hello? Why are you not moving?" Kyra sighs. Well, at least he is still standing... The cleric steps up around the ghast and slashes at it again.
"Careful, it's a ghast!" I just hope the new armor helps Rast staying up longer this time... Kyra moves up and hacks at the ghast.
Kyra follows Rast down the stairs, her scimitar drawn. "Wait, let me check the door first." She renewes the light spell on her scimitar, scrutinizes the door...
... and then casts detect magic again to check the door for magic, too.
Kyra follows Rast Antony. He may get hurt again - I better look out for him... She uses detect magic to check the pool of water. If there's nothing to find, she returns.
"Yes, please don this armor." Hopefully, he won't drop so quickly, then...
Kyra kneels down next to Rast and uses her rebuke death ability until he gets conscious.
The cleric then draws her wand of CLW and also uses it on Rast.
"There, as good as new."
"Rast! Hold out, I'll heal you as soon as the ghouls are destroyed!" I just told them to be careful! Kyra sighs. She steps around the ghoul in red and attacks the ghoul in green.
"Ghouls indeed. Be careful!" Kyra considers channeling for a moment. ...no. I must think of the children! I do not want to hurt them... She moves forward and draws her scimitar, waiting for a ghoul to move into her (unobstructed) reach.
Kyra speaks a short prayer and takes the diary.
Kyra checks the body of the boy.
"Rast, why don't you wear this ring? It will protect you from harm due to falling." Kyra casts light on her drawn scimitar.
"I can't remember what it's called exactly, but it's undead. Let's change that." Kyra draws her scimitar while moving forward. She tries to slice through the creature.
When everybody is finally safe and sound down the hole, Kyra casts light on her holy symbol and starts following the passage down to the door. She opens it and steps through. "That's an interesting sight."
"Malon, would you quit messing around and come down already?!" Kyra shakes her head. How did this one make it through the Confirmation? Exploring doesn't seem to be their forte...
"Rast, are you ok?!" Kyra carefully follows the fighter. When she finds him, she examines him...
...and is quite surprised when she has a hard time finding out what's wrong. "What happened? Do you need healing?"
"There. Better now?"
"Wait. We should check the area first."
Kyra looks at the arm.
Afterwards, she casts detect magic and checks the pool, especially the area with the arm, for magical auras. This is fine.
Kyra whispers to the others: ”He thinks the kids are real... he is not quite right in the head.”
Kyra tries to recall what she was taught about ghosts...
"Why are you really here, Deris? This place is a rotting ghost town! You can tell us the truth. I think your daughter is in the catacombs - a place we are going to visit." ...and I hope she is just dead and not undead... "Do you want to come with us? If yes, you have to tell us everything... and I mean everything."
His daughter is here?! Isn't this place supposed to be destroyed and abandoned? I am suspicious... "I am Kyra, humble cleric of Sarenrae. Pleased to meet you, Deris!" Kyra bows her head a little, but does not take the offered hand. "So your daughter is here? How old is she now? Whitch subjects does she study? ..."
"Where did you say do we find the caretaker?"
"And I can go last, if that's ok with you..."
Kyra answers: ”Losing someone you care about a lot - in such a horrible way - that's something I can relate to, unfortunately. And not knowing what exactly happened to Junia for ten years now...” She trails off, lost in her own memories for a second. Then she looks at the Lady Dacilane and puts one hand on her holy symbol. ”By Sarenrae, I swear I will do my best to find information about your daughter.” Diplomacy roll, if necessary:
"I think we have enough information."
The door to the room is pushed open and a dark-skinned human woman of Keleshite heritage enters hastily. "Am I too late? I hope not..." The woman is armored with a breastplate and has a scimitar on her hip. A silver ankh, the holy symbol of the Dawnflower, dangles from a cord around her neck. "I am Kyra, humble cleric of Sarenrae. Pleased to m..." Her voice trails off when she notices the small dinosaur and her hand flies to the hilt of her scimitar. But as the beast makes no aggressive moves and the others seem relaxed, she continues after a few seconds: "Huh, that was unexpected. One does not see dinosaurs indoors very often... Where was I? Ah, yes. Pleased to meet you!"
"A lost necropolis? So we should expect at least some undead, right?"
This is the level 4 pregen for kaervek78. If we aim for lower subtier, I have no problem getting 'out-of-subtier' gold.
"Quick, bind her!" Kyra ignores the devil for now, moves up and checks Pava's vitals.
As soon as Pava is bound securely, Kyra uses her Rebuke Death ability on her until she wakes up.
Afterwards, Kyra channels positive energy once for everybody, including Pava.
"Feels better, Winnie, am I right?"
@GM Watery Soup: Thanks again for stepping up! :-) @GM Nowruz: Welcome back. I hope you had a great vacation!
@GM Watery Soup:
"Pava, stop this nonsense right now! You're not gonna win this, you'll see!"
Then Kyra moves a bit while speaking to the devil, especially pointing at the archers: "Devil! Pava and all these archers are no friends of mine. You may do as you please with them - for now..." Afterwards, she casts guidance on Winnie again.
Kyra moves up and casts guidance on Winnie.
Kyra waits for a reaction from Pava.
Thanks for the explanation. :-) Noral already filled aout the chronicles here, and I can already see that all of the lower subtier items were crossed out, that's why I asked. I will address my question at him when he returns from vacation.
@GM(s):
Step 7: Mark any special boons the players did or did not earn (U) and cross out any treasure items the party didn’t find in the scenario (V); additionally, if you’re running the lower subtier, always cross out all of the items listed for the higher subtier. Return the Chronicle sheet to the player. As there may be usefull stuff (scrolls, partially charged wands, ...) I'd like to have it available. Or did I miss a clarification/errata that changes the above instructions?
"If nobody else wants to wear the ring, I will put it on."
The Spiritual Weapon follows and attacks the blinded red spider.
Kyra then casts guidance on herself.
