Move to Deeper Dungeon

Having chased the monsters out of the Death Zone, Myrtle returns underground to meet up with Nok-Nok in the dungeons. As she peeks through her first doorway, she spots a witch in there.

Charging in at the witch with her axe raised above her, she quickly attacks and strikes the hag down. Pausing to dig through the hags clothing, she finds enough eyes of newt and such that she can put together the spell components for one of her healing spells, restoring her strength and preparing herself to continue onwards.

Before she leaves the room, and glint catches her eye. It turns out the old hag was also hiding away a magical headband... it would've done more good on her head than in a pile of rags on the ground, but her loss! Myrtle snatches it up and places it on her head, feeling smarter immediately.

Then, because she can return to Nok-Nok, she feels the sting of a magic missile spell smacking her in the back, causing her to drop her staff. She turns around and snarls at this newcomer... apparently the hag had a boyfriend down here, and he's another spellcaster. Again raising the axe, she charges at the boyfriend, delivering to him the same fate as his partner. He attempts to immolate himself as he dies, to take Myrtle down with him... but her magical armor easily absorbs the weak amount of flame he's able to conjure as he dies. She turns and leaves the room at last, stopping to pick up her staff on the way out.

Rejoining Nok-Nok at last, Myrtle looks around the dungeon. It looks like most of the doors had already been marked off with Nok-Nok's signature scratch, leaving only one or two remaining. "I guess the giant is hiding in one of those. If you want to sneak up and see, I'll be right behind you. Oh, and take this", Myrtle hand him a potion to drink.

Resuming my turn, only a month late... oops.

Continuing up the peak, she follows a friendly moose until... it leads her to one of the giants. The villain looks over at here, his skin burning to keep the mountain cold at bay, and the wave of heat blasts out towards her.

Thanks to the mixture of bottles and mechanical allies harrassing the creature, Myrtle is able to close within range to reach out at him with her powerful touch spell. Invoking the name of Nok-Nok's chaotic god to help her defeat this giant, she reaches out and channels all of the dark energy into him.

Aric's turn: Download Restoration and Potion of Heroism

Myrtle watches as Aric slices down a couple monsters, and runs over to collect the droppings. Very useful entrails these have...

Turn 3, under the Blessing of Desna
Move to Mountain Peak
Drink Potion of Heroism

Once the monsters are struck down, and after Aric has warned about a much bigger beast ahead, Myrtle decides that it's time for her to move on. She thought she spotted one of the giants moving up the outside of the mountain, and is afraid that it'll be too treacherous for the more ... urban-inclined members of the group. So she makes sure she's got all her gear well bundled up, drinks the potion that she made from some of the entrails, and starts climbing the peak.

Free Exploration - Peak #1: Hide Armor of Fire Resistance
Check to Acquire - Fortitude 7: 1d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 1 + (5) = 11 - Acquired

Partway up the mountain she spots the frozen body of a previous adventurer. And he's wearing armor to protect him from heat... see, this is exactly why she didn't want the others following her here. Rookies would only be more trouble than they're worth. Of course, the armor would go to waste here, so even if it's magical properties aren't the most useful thing, it wouldn't hurt to have an extra layer.

The man was also carrying a Scythe, of all the odd weapon choices to bring to the top of a mountain. Instantly dismissing it as much too large and unweildy, she leaves it to be buried by snow.

It looks like he has one more magic item as well... but this one is protected by a trapped lockbox. Steeling herself, she sticks her hand in to pry it open, only to have the entire thing suddenly snap shut around her, and try to take her hand. Luckily her friendly glass elemental was faster, and extends part of itself to shield her hand and hold the mechanism open, so that she could retrieve the object inside. A fighting amulet, not really her style, but might make a nice prize. If nothing else, she can use it to keep her fingers warm on the cold climb.

Discard Moose to explore - Peak #4: Killing Blade
Pause to see if it's worth guarding the Crypts or not.

Myrtle will start in the Crypts... purely for story reasons I'm sure. I mean, we just came running out of them, it makes sense that we'd still be there. Yeah, that's the one and only reason why I'm choosing to start there...

She'll also plan to move to the Peak, since she can auto-pass the start of turn check, and she's the only one that can safely traverse them.

Myrtle continues to move quickly through this new crypt, still trying to find her way back to the surface. She spots a spell scroll, and remembering how much help that Haste spell was, she pauses long enough to snatch it up. This one is a less utility spell, but still could end up useful perhaps.

... and comes face to face with a hulky man in heavy armor. He looks at her stone axe and laughs at her, thinking that his armor makes him immune to her feeble weapon. She shakes her head... and thinks that she doesn't have time to deal with this right now. Tucking the axe back into her belt she instead casts a spell. The warlord braces himself for a fireball or some other offensive magic, and then laughs again when it appears that nothing has happened. He steps towards her... and then immediately falls over dead as she boops him on the nose with one finger.

Moving on past him, she jumps back as it appears that the rock itself has stopped falling down upon her, and has instead started rising up around her. The she realizes that it's not rock, merely a giant with skin the color and texture of the rock. The giant stands and looms over her. Still not wanting to take time to stand and fight, especially not against something so much larger than her, she reaches into a pouch and pulls out a bottle. Hurling it at the giant, it cracks and shatters at his feet, releasing a thunderous crack of lightning that strikes him down.

She grabs a glint of metal that she's spotted near the giant's feet, snatching up a spyglass as she finally exists that crypt. Looking around... she has once again NOT emerged into daylight. Turning around she makes another marking on the door behind her so that she and her friends will hopefully find their way out of here eventually. Then she turns to see what lies ahead next.

Turn 1, under the Blessing of the Gods

Feeling the rumbling and shaking start, Myrtle knows that it's past time to clear out of these crypts. Thinking that it's better to split up to work our way through, Myrtle chooses a random crypt and starts running. She slows down only long enough to cast a quick prepatory spell on herself and quaff a potion. Never hurts to be prepared in trying times like this...

Auto-acquire Blessing of the Gods.

As she runs past a couple small shrines and monuments to the gods, Myrtle stops herself. Yes, haste is important... but then, the blessings of the gods could also be very useful. She doubles back to pray at each one, feeling the blessings of the gods upon her. They seem happy that even in life-threatening situations somebody is willing to stop and pay homage. Hopefully, making gods happy will help get her out of this alive...

Discard Blessing of the Gods to explore - Crypt #1 #3: Invincible Breastplate
Check to Acquire - Fortitude 11: 1d8 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (8) + 1 + (6) = 15 - Acquired

The gods reward her with a suit of heavy armor. Not really her style, but maybe the magic of it will at least protect her from the falling debris. She holds the front of the breastplate over her head like an umbrella as she runs.

Defeated a monster, download the Moose from discards.

Suddenly an abominable snowman lurks out of the darkness in front of her. She shakes her head in an attempt to disbelieve the illusion, assuming there's no possible way such a monster would be this deep in these magical crypts. But it doesn't fade away at all... might it actually be real? Myrtle doesn't have time to waste with it, she mutters a few words and a crack opens up in one wall. A flow of lava suddenly erupts through the crack, smothering and burning the cold creature. Assured now that it won't try to follow her any further, she chooses a new direction and continues to move quickly.

Discard Moose to explore - Crypt #1 #5: Haste
Check to Acquire - Arcane 8: 1d12 + 3 + 1d4 + 1d6 ⇒ (5) + 3 + (4) + (4) = 16 - Acquired

When she opened the crack, apparently she shook loose a couple sarcophagi from the crypts, and one of them catches her eye as she runs past. A pristine spell scroll sits atop a pile of rotted paper. She snatches it up, glancing down and realizing just how useful this spell is... something to make her move faster, to help clear her and her friends out of this place. She is preparing to cast it when suddenly

A Hag jumps out in front of her. Apparently, that had been one of her scrolls, and she doesn't take kindly to it being pilfered. Myrtle hefts her axe, pausing to drip some deadly poison on the end of it, and then charges to engage the creature. The hag falls quickly to the poisoned blade.

Discard Blessing of the Elements to explore - Crypt #1 #7: Large Chest

Thinking that if the hag had such a useful scroll, she might have other useful tools for escaping, Myrtle stops to investigate the rest of her lair. She finds a large chest, but unfortunately can't manage to force it open. She doesn't have time to waste here, so she quickly moves on.

Discard Shadowcat to examine - Crypt #1 #8: Belt of Giant Strength and then explore
Check to Acquire - Strength 5: 1d4 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) + (5) = 9 - Acquired

As she's about to leave the lair, she spots a magical belt in a pile of bones off to one side, she snatches it up on her way out.

And then Myrtle has found it, the exit to this place. Unfortunately, the massive stone door is locked, preventing her from leaving. She hefts the axe again, drinks a potion to help enhance her aim, and quickly spots the weak points on the door. Using the axe to hack and pry near those weak spots, she triumphantly knocks the door down, and escapes the crypt... right into yet another crypt.

Check to Close - Survival 12: 1d12 + 5 + 1d6 ⇒ (12) + 5 + (2) = 19 - Closed

Realizing that this maze of crypts is trying to trap her and her friends in here while it collapses around them, she quickly makes the marking of a trail sign for "Dead end" on the outside of the door. That way, if her or any of her friends get turned around and end up back here, they'll know that this is not the way out, and won't waste time going back into this area.

I'll probably pass on a card upgrade, I'm pretty happy with where my deck is right now (I briefly considered swapping out UW for some APs, since I'm only using a couple UW cards... but those couple cards include Cloud Puff and Shadowcat, so they're pretty important. ;-) )

Hearing that the others are headed out after the Nosferatu, Myrtle quickly scrambles around the Veils, looking for the proper incantation to seal it.

Myrtle continues to work her way around the maze, trying to find her way into the middle of it in hope that she'll find something useful. She rounds one corner and finds the giant spider that Grazzle had warned her about. It makes a swing at her but the Mountaineer warns her and she dodges out of the way. Pulling out a crackling bottle from her bag, she hurls it at the spider, zapping it to death.

Discard Shadowcat to examine - Maze #2: Nosferatu
Choose not to explore.

Sending her pet cat ahead to scout around the next corner, it quickly comes back and warns her of the dangerous vampire lurking nearby. Deciding that this maze is too draining to fight a vampire in it right now, she sends word back to the rest of the group that she's spotted the big bad.

Quickly quaffing a potion to help her resist the vampire's enthralling eyes, she hefts a bottle of lightning in her other hand and advances towards the creature. She has her pet Elemental on standby, ready to rush forward and finish this thing off after the explosion of lightning weakens it first. But to her surprise and delight, she strikes it straight in the chest with the full blast of energy, and it immediately crumbles to dust. The elemental looks at her forlornly, disappointed that it didn't get to fight this time, but she reassures it that there will be more monsters in their future.

After watching Nok-nok run away from the lightning giant, Grazzle steps forward into the catacombs and finds... that undead demon that had been spotted here earlier.

Her eyes immediately set upon a glint of metal on the floor. She rushes over to it and brushes it off... it appears to be a magical ring. And not just any ring either, a powerful artifact of the Sihedron, the founders of ancient Thassilon. Perhaps this could be useful in their quest to end these runelords.

She finds the scroll, and pulls it down triumphantly. Then, opening it up, she realizes that this is a scroll of mind-control... not exactly something that will be helpful in a crypt full of mindless undead. She throws it to the ground in disgust, and deciding there's clearly not much more of value nearby she unleashes hell upon the zombies.

Well, not hell exactly. But the eruption of a small volcano in the middle of the crypt certainly puts a quick end to their restless moans. As the last of them is sealed in cooling magma, she looks to her party and gestures towards the door, wondering what else is down here...

After following the goblin to his shrine, Myrtle is disappointed to look around and find nothing interesting there. Since the goblin is in no rush to explore, Myrtle decides to head off to explore a nearby Maze.

Defeated a monster, download Cloud Puff from draw deck.

She's barely gotten her to the first corner of the maze when she comes upon High Priestess and Trusted Advisor Ruyla. "I thank you for finding us so early" indeed! We just got here! Myrtle reacts quickly, throwing her most powerful spell at the priestess. She feels that the divine power is lacking somewhat, because the priestess is able to resist it partially with her own divine strength. "Oh yeah, resist this!" she cries, as she hurls a stoppered bottle at the priestess. It explodes at her feet, electrocuting her with a powerful blast of lightning. The priestess pushes past her and rushes out of the maze to find somewhere else to cower.

After some fairly non-productive answers to a question I asked on the forums yesterday, I'm still left unsure of whether I want to take an Armor 5 or not. Since I'm both the BR and the player in question, I feel it unfair to rule on this myself, so do you guys want to take a look at that thread and rule whether or not Myrtle's power works with Parade Armor? If it does, I'll sign up to take the second Armor 5. If not, I'll pass.

Either way, I might be interested in the Spell 5, depending on how badly Grazzle wants it and what he can use it for.

Off-turn
Grazzle's Turn - Cast Restoration on Aric to allow him to draw two.
Check to Recharge: Restoration - Divine 14: 1d4 ⇒ 1 - Failed, discarded
Nok-Nok's Turn - Ogre defeated, download Restoration from discard.
Alu-Demon defeated, download Potion of Focus from deck.

Myrtle finds her time spent in jail with the two convicts to be quite profitable. She's collected a few useful trinkets for later, she slips them into her pockets as she moves out towards the academy in search of more academic pursuits.

Turn 4, under the Blessing of Abadar
Move to Academy
Cast Restoration on myself to draw 2: (Potion of Heroism, Liquid Persuasion)
Drink Potion of Heroism.

Free Exploration - Academy #1: Augury
Check to Acquire - Arcane 6: 1d12 + 3 + 1d4 + 1d4 ⇒ (4) + 3 + (1) + (1) = 9 - Acquired
Cast Augury, calling Spell
Examine Acadamy #2: Merchant; Academy #3: Raise Dead; Academy #4: Alu-Demon Sister
Place Raise Dead on top, shuffle the rest.

Entering the academy, she quickly finds the library and helps herself to a useful divination spell. She casts it to see if it can detect any more powerful spells nearby, and it does!

Banish Anesthetizing Slime to explore - Academy 3: Raise Dead
Check to Acquire - Wisdom 12: 1d12 + 3 + 1d4 ⇒ (10) + 3 + (2) = 15 - Acquired

She rushes over to the next shelf and snatches up a powerful healing spell, one so strong it can even raise the dead. She slips it into her scroll case, thinking that the lizard might find this more useful than her.

Discard Blessing of Nethys to examine the top two
Random Card (3=2): 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Random Card (3=2): 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
And I just noticed that the Demon-wench is immune to both the attack options I've got in hand right now, so I think I'll put her second and encounter the Merchant instead.
Check to Acquire - Charisma 7: 1d6 + 1d4 ⇒ (5) + (2) = 7 - Acquired
Discard Merchant to have him carry Raise Dead over to Grazzle.

Praying to Nethys for guidance to find the right classroom as she continues to explore the area, she is guided to choose between two doors. One contains great evil, and the other is much more friendly. She opts for the friendlier option, and opens the door to find a merchant packing up his gear from a small student sale he'd be running. Speaking with him briefly, he tells her that he's heading off to the Thassalonian Library next. Remembering that Grazzle started out heading in that direction and feeling like she can trust this man, Myrtle hands him the scroll she'd found earlier and asks him to give it to the lizard man there. She trusts that there's likely to be only one.

Sending out a magical message to her friends indicating that she'll need help fighting the demon, as it's immune to most of her magic, she sits down to wait a few minutes and see if anybody shows up.

End of turn, banish Potion of Heroism.

Grazzle was given Raise Dead.
If somebody comes to fight the Alu-Demon and then plans to keep exploring, I can download Restoration on the Alu-fight and then play it on you before you leave/explore.

Myrtle will start at either the Maze or the Prison, whichever one is occupied by the person with the highest number of explores available.
If that person isn't going first, she'll additionally cast Restoration on them during a prior turn, so that they can download/replay it on their own turn if they so desire (and if they hit a monster).

Myrtle will swap out Draughtcap Fungus for Bottled Lightning (Core), using the Item 5, and then take a Skill Feat (Wis).

Pondering this guy: Tears of Death

It looks somewhat interesting for Nok-Nok, but not sold. Also has a pretty heavy cost for failure.

What Item 5 are you looking at Maelwys?

Either Witchhunter's Sword or Bottled Lightning, I hadn't actually decided yet.

Tears of Death is pretty cool though, too bad I can't get that until AD6. ;-)

I'm interested in the Item 5, but have no real need for the Codex because most of my other items are better.

Turn 8, under the Blessing of the Gods
Move to Library

Myrtle follows Aric back out to the library, to see if there are any good spells there. She arrives just in time to see him crumpling up a scroll paper with a very rare and powerful spell on it. Mumbling curses at him under her breath, she proceeds to look around.

Free Exploration - Library #: 1d7 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9: Teleport
Check to Acquire - Intelligence 12: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 - Banished

Quickly finding another spell scroll she takes a quick peak at it, and then decides it's not worth anything, crumples it up and throws it aside in a totally non-hypocritical manner.

Discard Blessing of the Gods to explore - Library #: 1d7 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7: Warrior of Wrath

Banish Heat Metal to close the final location.

As she balls up the scroll she hears movement behind her, and turns to see a Warrior entering the room. Praying to Nok-Nok's god for guidance, she charges him with her axe and strikes him down.

Victory!

End of Nok-Nok's turn, Restoration is discarded.
During Aric's turn:
Aric defeats Shadow, download Potion of Heroism for him to drink

After a very profitable time looting the bodies of all the kills that the Red Raven was racking up, Myrtle follows after him towards the Maze.

Drink Liquid Persuasion to add Craft.
Check to Acquire - Wisdom/Craft 7: 1d12 + 2 + 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 2 + (3) + 4 = 15 - Acquired

As she arrives, Aric is waiting in the nearby shows and points her towards a wand. She quickly snatches it up, sensing how powerful it is. It appears capable of pointing out any nearby treasure... unfortunately, it also appears that this was the ONLY treasure in the maze, so it's not very useful here. But hopefully it will find a purpose in the near future, if she hangs onto it for a few minutes more...

Finally, she comes across a Warrior of Wrath, one of the guardians of this maze. She summons a powerful magical spell to send against it... and manages to strike it down. Leading her friend back out of the maze, they prepare to move along once more.

Myrtle will start with whomever has the most explores, in a location with a lot of monsters. Try to download a bunch of stuff before her first turn. And feel free to ask her to case Restoration on yourself to try to give yourself a few extra explores if you'd like, that's win-win.

I'm interested in either an Ally 5 (if one is drawn) or a Spell 5. And if I get one of those, I'll take a matching Card Feat for whichever I get. Otherwise, I'll probably just take a Wisdom +1 Skill Feat.

As she enters the Glens, Myrtle summons a cloud of toxic gases across the entire area, hoping that it will aid her with her combat but also help Aric with his. Then she mentally prepares a powerful spell and heads forward.
