Still around and ready to go. I am leaving to go on vacation tomorrow and will be going till the 21st and not posting. SCA event so camping for the week. Cell Service is terrible where we are going and it is frowned upon to have such technology while doing medieval recreation :)

cool

Heal: 1d20 + 4 - 5 ⇒ (5) + 4 - 5 = 4

"It seems they are dead. I don't think we should make it our business. We have accomplished our mission but all for not if we don't return home with the priestess."

The way they are pilled do they seem maybe dead?

"Not good. If they are dead then this may be a delivery to a necromancer. If not then more slaves. While being a former slave here I would like to free them it will matter not if we can't take them with us off this island. Our concern should be returning home with the priestess and report all of what we have found here."

"We can check Ausk. We shouldn't expose or endanger ourselves much further. We have completed our mission and should return the priestess to our land."

"Another caravan heading this way. I think it was best we left that tower when we did. I wonder if they are bringing more people to their master."

Not sure what you want us to do with the above post. We are heading back to the city and looking to get a boat back home.

Marcus leads the way back toward the city in hope they can still escape this island.

Yep

:)

Good luck. Our third anniversary is the 22nd. Been great thus far.

"Head up, you can inform whoever you work for thanks but not thanks. I'm doing what I was sent here to do. We saved the priestess but we put her in danger by not getting her out of here. Stay if you wish but I'm done playing games here. Lillian will you come with me?"

Marcus sits confused at why his companions are feasting and indulging this place.

"We should be leaving. We have no business here."

"Why are we still here? We should leave and get off this island as we intended to do. I don't like any of this, and have no idea what that thing is cooking for us."

Weird I saw these updates but didn't see the ones from Friday.

"Tell us why are we here? Or I mean why did you bring us here?"

"Strange, I'm not sure who or what that was Lilah, be on guard."

"Well that smells delicious. It seems we are expected. A good host would have greeted us at the bottom instead of making us wonder through this place. Let's avoid the food until we find out what or who invited us here."

Marcus leads the group on

I messed up I was thinking the eidolon couldn't benefit from healing beside rejuvenate spell. I was wrong they just don't heal naturally. I have resistance 5 so I took 76hp, leaving me at 3, 2mine 1eidolon, so with the 62 and 13 I'm at 78 so yep good to go.

"Yes lets keep searching this place."

Reflex: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

"Thank you Lillian, it seems we have underestimated what may live here. Let us remember we are guest that were brought here and leave things alone."

I'm not continuing with this. It was obviously targeting me as it would have flat out killed anyone else. You and Suny dead unless a 20 rolled, Ausk dead, me unconscious. If it was a typo then fine, but as is it seems my character is not wanted even though I'm the most active poster and try and keep things moving. It's a home brew, to put an evocation that strong at this level is sloppy and careless design. Even Suny needs a 20 to make the save. A PM discussion won't help stuff like this should be public it effects all the players. Strong Evocation maybe means a 5 level spell not an intensified 3rd level spell cast at maximum level with some bonus damage that who knows how that got on there.

Are you confused about the game your running, a 15d6+27 trap with a DC 30 at level 6? So the wheels are off the buss on this game. Looks like another game going down.

"I know very little of magic Suny. I can use a bit of it but I no little of its nature. What is the worse that can happen."

Marcus will touch the rod to the orb.

"It may be Suny, these other orbs seem to need a key of some kind. Perhaps this rod is the key. Let's give it a try."

Marcus will walk over to the rod as well and take it up and attempt to touch it to one of the orbs.

What is this?

Marcus waves down to the others giving them the all clear to come see. He will then cast detect magic and look over the room.

Marcus hand waves the others up as he makes way across the room and up the next flight of stairs continuing to scout.

I will scout ahead.

Marcus heads up sneaking and looking around the second floor.

Stealth: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (14) + 19 = 33
Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (6) + 21 = 27

"I'm fine, thank you for the help. In hind sight I should have expected that. So lets see whats in this place."

Marcus attempts to bust free of the web

Strength check: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

"Damn this web."

Marcus fly's up a bit to use his reach on the creatures.

Glaive Attack: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12
Damage: 1d10 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

It looks like we are fighting the spiders? I check in daily but we have not been posting much here.

Marcus hover for a moment and stares in awe of what he sees. He then fly's back down.

"So something tore a giant hole into this tower. This is quite impressive since its made of Adamantine. Perhaps we should clear out the cobwebs and spiders and search this place."

"Hold on a minute let me check this place out."

Marcus takes to the air and fly's around the tower looking for windows or other entrances.

Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (5) + 21 = 26

"An invitation and now a test. They must want us to make our way up. Shall we?"

Marcus will nod to the man and enter the coach.

Str Check: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20 Nailed it.

"I will see what assistance I can offer with the log."

Marcus walks up and starts to drag and help move the log.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Marcus contiues to walk with Lilian as she pulls away from him a bit. Unable to put his finger on what is wrong.

"What is is Lilian? Have you seen these men before?

Marcus looks at the wagon as Suny steps into it.

Speak now girl... I fear we have little time.

He stops for a moment as he spoke to Lilian awaiting her reply before getting closer to the wagon.

Marcus grits his teeth and weighs his options.

"Fine... You give us little choice here. Its alright Suny I won't let anything happen to her. Let's see what they want. Let's do this quickly and quietly."

Marcus puts his arm around Lilian and awaits the men to show the way.

"We are not in the business of following or listening to strangers. What or who wants to talk with us?"

Stealth: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (12) + 19 = 31

Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (1) + 21 = 22

Not approaching the black dragon

Right Suny, we can't hope to fight this with it having the support of this town. Is that then one you escaped from? Marcus ask the girl. It may even remeber the marks I bear if it witnessed me fight in the arena before. Lets get out of here and take to the water. Maybe we can't sneak up to one of the boats from the water and stow aboard it.

Game dead? Just checking in.

"The lord here is a general, then what threat is he looking for here. This makes no sense. We will see him in our own time. We do not need an escort as our orders come from the Empress and if she wants us to speak with this general then she will tell us. Come along now men."

Marcus motions for the others to follow as they move in. He will keep an eye out if they are being followed and they will head toward the docks.

Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (9) + 21 = 30

"Infiltrators spies? This sounds like treasonous talks from a simple lord. We are searching for some people that are of interest to the Empress, I'm sure she would love to know her agents were met with such disrespect from some lowly guard in service to a lowly lord. I will forget your pathetic threat this time. Now let us pass."

Bluff: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24

Marcu follows behind Suny,

"Yes recruiting for what? Our business is our own."

Marcus will do what he can to diguise himself. Wrapping up in some cloaks and rubbing dirt on his face. Trying to look as a poor homeless person.

Disguise: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Marcus lands.

Seems all clear. We are not far from the town. Perhaps we can get a room and get some rest there. It could be dangerous for us there as well so we need to be careful no one say too much to the locals.

Is this a coast town, I think we were looking to get a ship from here right?

I will make sure we are alone.

Marcus takes to the air and gives a quick check to the perimeter of the group.

Perception: 1d20 + 21 ⇒ (17) + 21 = 38

Marcus helps the cowering girl up.

It's ok Sapphire. I was a slave on this island as well. You can get away from this and have a life. I will end the rule of that dragon here as long as Bahamut stays with me. I am called Marcus. I will protect you till we leave this cursed place.

Please stand. I am Marcus. I too was once a slave here. Come with us. We will keep you safe, but Ausk is right we need to move out of here.
