"Wow..." He says to Shalosar. "So that's where your weapons were. They were inside you the whole time!"

Shalosar pauses a moment, then nods. ”I suppose so”, he replies, ”and the real treasure was the blood we spilled along the way!”

He cracks the chains again, and the spiked links at the ends break away and fly toward the closest attacker.

Shalosar grimaces as spiked chains erupt from the back of each wrist. They’re ten feet long, shiny black, and weave through the air around him. He cracks them like whips at the nearest foe.

Nodding at Payani, Vahrn wonders. "Well, I have not seen any hobgoblins so far, so who's using this now?"

”Let’s find out”, says Shalosar, nodding toward the doors southwest of them.

Shalosar’s brow furrows. ”Hobgoblin cult?”, he shrugs.

Shalosar starts to head south.

"Thank you very much!" Haduo grasps the Fetchling's hand.

"I guess we're all going to take out our weapons then?" Haduo activates the Light on his Wayfinder before drawing both swords. "Where are your weapons, Shalosar?"

Shalosar looks into the trap door with a grin. ”I have faith that they’ll be along directly”, he replies.

Shalosar offers Haduo a hand up. ”Come on, you’ll miss all the fun!”, he rasps.

Shalosar watches Dakon go to work, then glances at Haduo. ”So doors are okay, but not envelopes, huh?”

”Ok, let’s check this hut for clues”, says Shalosar.

Turning to Mayor Kimi, he adds, ”You don’t mind if we read that mail, do you? Could be a lead”

”Ha! You folks are lucky!”, Shalosar exclaims. ”Sakura may be angry, but at least she’s merciful. She only cut you off, and still gave us a chance to help. If you had crossed the Midnight Lord, there’d be a lot more hooks and bleeding involved! She’ll come around, and when she does, you should all be down on your knees thanking her for it!”

Nature: 1d20 + 1 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 1 + 7 = 17

Religion: 1d20 + 1 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 1 + 7 = 17

”We were sent by the Pathfinders”, Shalosar replies. ”Sakura gave us a chance to find you”

Shalosar tries to get a read on the squirbits, in case they can sense things the party can’t.

Nature: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

”So we turn this village upside-down until we find the infection, and rip it out”, says Shalosar. ”Sounds like fun!”

”Huh. I think they’re risucho”, says Shalosar. ”Little kami messengers that go between villages. Looks like they’re trying to suss us out”

Nature: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Shalosar lets the others shmooze, while he keeps an eye out for any potential hostility.

Thank you!

I’ll take a heal scroll too

Does a spellcasting archetype allow you to use scrolls of the same magic type?

He pauses for a moment, thinking hard. "We should find out what's upsetting the balance and eliminate them, with force if needed." To punctuate his point, he smashes a wooden fist into a wooden palm.

”Hells yeah!”, Shalosar agrees.

”Three weeks, huh?”, asks Shalosar. ”Anything else weird happen around that time?”

"I also slice people apart." he says to Shalosar as he unsheathes two twin Temple Swords, both glowing red with spiritual energy.

Shalosar gives a sideways grin at the swords. ”Nice”, he replies. ”Looks like you’re neater about it than I am”

"Thank you." Haduo says with a small smile. "Since I was originally a healer, I find myself applying that same precision I welded with a scapel to my blades. This one's called Tripper -" He raises the blade in his right hand, which has the image of a foot emblazoned in it "- and this one's called Hitter." Haduo says, glancing at the blade in his left hand, emblazoned with the image of a fist.

"I see no weapon on you, Shalosar. How do you defend yourself without one?" The Leshy asks, genuinely curious.

Shalosar looks around the cozy tea parlor in the lodge, then back at Haduo. ”Mmm, not really the time and place”, he says. ”I’m trying out this new thing called ‘discretion’, but I’m sure you’ll find out later”

"I also slice people apart." he says to Shalosar as he unsheathes two twin Temple Swords, both glowing red with spiritual energy.

A male kayal with chalk-white skin takes a seat. His eyes and shoulder-length hair are black, and he has several black piercings in his face and ears. A small silver skull hangs around his neck, the black chain looped through the eye sockets. He wears studded leather armor, but his forearms are bare. Stylized chains are branded around both wrists, with circular scars on the backs. An amulet on his chest depicts an open door to a torture chamber.

”The name’s Shalosar”, he rasps. ”I rip people apart, and sometimes put ‘em back together!”

Sorry I’m late. Currently traveling, but should be good to post.

Friendly fire is acceptable, but don’t push it! :-)

Orca? What orca? Although if one does turn up that would be cool

”You said you’re an orc/undine cross”, says Shalosar with a grin, ”so you could call yourself that”

Chronicle looks good. Thanks for running!

Good game everyone!

Zenari cleans her own weapons. Well, I'm going for another swim - who's coming with?

”Swim with an orca?”, asks Shalosar. ”Why not?”

"Well. There may be hope for those two yet!"

”I dunno”, Shalosar replies. ”I’ve always heard that mixed marriages don’t work”

”I prefer them to be silent”, says Shalosar. He cracks a chain like a whip, and the last link flies toward the shredded Mantis.

Attack: 1d20 + 9 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 + 1 = 12

Frowning, he cracks the other one.

Waiting to see the results of her attack

Shalosar smirks at the Red Disciple. ”You fight like those rookies we slaughtered!”, he sneers. ”Time for you to join ‘em!”

He grimaces as spiked chains erupt from the back of each wrist. One of them lashes out at the disciple, while the other curls into a flat spiral, forming a shield on his arm.

"Give them hell everyone!"

”Just what I had in mind”, replies Shalosar, raising his forearms in anticipation.

”How delicious!”

Ooo, that Medical Cache sounds key!

So we get to have a bit of fun, then moon them as we run away! Heehee!

*full moon them

Letting her be the center of attention once again, Shalosar tries a more subtle approach from the other window.

”Just glad you didn’t hit me like that”, says Shalosar, as he tries to patch up the Signet.

”Come out, come out, wherever you are!”, Shalosar shouts to no one in particular. ”It’ll only hurt a lot, I promise!”

Then he looks around and realizes what’s actually happening. ”They’re in your head!”, he shouts at the Signet. ”Now get ‘em out, before we beat ‘em out of you!”

The chains erupt from his wrists. One of them curls into a spiky ball at the end, which he swings at the barbarian.

Shalosar lets out a low, throaty chuckle. ”Accurate”, he rasps, ”but you know what I would love even more than gold? Making you scream!”

Shalosar lays his hands on the fragments, and uses the discipline of pain to bring the energy down.

”Hungry?”, asks Shalosar, offering her some of his rations, hoping they slow her mouth down.

4, 1, 3, 2. That House of Mirrors looks intriguing.

Sure, let’s go with Mrs. C

And to answer your question, if there is a way to catch the emission in a flexible bag, like a balloon, then release it at the appropriate time. (Naughty Zenari)

Or just line up the Signet in a flamethrower configuration

Do we all have to use/aid the same skill?

"Well, now we've done it. We executed a series of Younglings." The Carnelian Signet's flames extinguish in a moment. "They were clearly outmatched..." She sighs. "Reminds of too many in Chileax, trying to punch up above their weight. Order people above their station. Summon devils who toy with them." She shakes her head. "Dreadful."

She finally notices her injury. "And one of them managed to hit me!"

Shalosar grunts as the chains retract into his wrists.

”Eh, we barely got tagged”, he replies, taking out a healing kit.

”Thought you had a future here, huh?”, Shalosar sneers at the knife-throwing trainee. ”You had a goal, threw yourself at it…and missed. Just like that dagger”

He cracks a chain like a whip, and the last link flies toward him.
