She tries to break free from Donovan's grasp.
"Oh, you are hurting me!"
"Well, are you here to shut down this terrible gate thing? I just cannot do it myself." You hear a spell being cast from Tally's illusion. Donovan: Will DC 19 or become nausiated by Tally's presence.
Now be good boys and get to your own room and clean it up."
"Hands off me boy! Now get yer gropin self away from me you naughty thing." Mrs. Pedipalp withdraws from Tally walking around Valdis and Donovan and directly through Tally's illusion.
Mrs. Pedipalp walks over to where Walhart dropped his longbow and picks it up. "You boys need to take better care of your things. I will do that for you. Now go to your own room and leave me be. And someone dismiss that figment for f#@%'s sake."
"I'm gonna do this. Hahaahhahahahha."
Mrs. Pedipalp takes a five foot step and takes Donovan's adamantine warhammer. "Now, now. Someone might get hurt with this."
Admitting defeat is better than a total party kill, dearies. "Oh, why do you make me do this?"
Mrs. Pedipalp smiles at Valdis as she moves closer to the paladin. "If you are not going to shut down the gate you best be on your ways." You hear a spell being cast. Valdis and Donovan are caught in a vivid cone of clashing colors.
Mrs. Pedipalp takes a five foot step away from the Paladin and says "You are mistaken as to the rightful steward of this scriptorium." You hear a spell being cast.
You are waistland atm
The proper spelling is Eminence Front, dearies. Please allow me to correct that before you meet Pharasma.
Master Walhart. You need to safeguard that young man Tally who is all by himself in this nightmarish place. He is not safe alone. We will be fine, dear.
Mrs. Pedipalp picks up the pitcher of water and pours it on Valdis's face. She opens his mouth and pours some down his throat.
As Walhart's arrow makes it mark Mrs Pedipalp says "Ouch. What was that for?" She stands and says to Donovan "Well it seems you are attracted to prone older women, you naughty boy." A spell is cast from the northern portion of the room.
Valdis: Mrs. Pedipalp takes her meals at the table near to you. She talks about grandma type things while smiling and eating slowly. She keeps a pitcher of water at that end of the table and sips from it frequently while smiling at you.
Valdis: As Valdis wakes from his magically induced slumber Mrs. Pedipalp walks over to him and says "Good morning sleepy head. You just could not give up on that spell, now could you. Curiosity kills kittens, you know. Sometimes, dear, things are not what they seem are they?" Mrs. Pedipalp transforms before your eyes. The bloated spider has a hunchbacked body and a gleam of intelligence in its multiple eyes. It drips poison from its maw and returns to its humanoid form. "Did you have a nightmare, dear? Hahahaha."
"That one does not know how to behave. I did it for his own good before he killed himself with that gate. Now be sweet, all of you."
"I am afraid I have none and I do not know any healing spells either."
"The harm to you was not anticipated. It really needs to be shut down. Can you try it again?"
"No fighting is a good thing." She does not relax her stance.
"What is wrong with you, boy?!?" Mrs Pedipalp casts mirror image and backs up a bit.
"No, No, No, No !!! The other east. For goodness sake."
"It must be rotated in a west to east direction."
"Pleased to meet you, Valdis Pechman. I am Mrs. Pedipalp. I am in charge of this scriptorium and trying to rid it of this dangerous experiment Salighara created."
"It is a matter of strength. I cannot budge the hoop." She looks at each of you briefly and says. "I would say two of you together could do it."
"I am sure we could work something out. The important thing right now is to shut down this dream gate and stop all of these nightmare effects. It is currently aligned to the darkest portion of that plane. It is capable of allowing one way transportation. The things of nightmares can pass through and come here. You cannot go there. That is how Colulus came to haunt us. No telling what else may pass through."
"Closing the Dream Gate will end the nightmare influences. You must rotate the hoop around the Dream Gate until the gate closes."
A woman busies herself here. Her appearance is that of a kindly grandmother. "Such a relief it is to see you. I beg you to help me with this. I was able to regain control of myself now that the wicked demon spider, Colulus has been killed. We must shut down the Dream Gate I was forced to open. Will you please help me with this?" |
