Honestly, I vote hiatus.

<If we try a peaceful route, it might be best for me not to be the one to do the talking. Soldiers from Tyrene have a tendancy to be a little unnerved by my people.> Struug pointed out.
<Blink, do you have any magics at your disposal?>
<Is it possible to distinguish which one might be a priest?> Struug asked while attempting to formulate a strategy.
Struug quietly broadcasts, <So what do we do from this point?
PM it to me.
Hey Tierce, if you think that Nat 20 Survival was interesting, that was nothing compared to my Elven Oracle with the Clouded Vision curse absolutely destroying three survival rolls in a row.
Snaping out of his calculations and replied, <Sorry about that, I forget sometimes. As for what I'm working on, it's a spell equation, one I've been working on since we started this trip.>
While the group was hiking, Struug kept mentally mumbling. <Corrosive quotient squared minus the parabolic equalibrium, divided by the flow of energy equals increased output while decreasing distance of effectiveness.> Despite the apparent rambling, the Dunaux was extremely vigilant as to his surroundings.
<Absolution hopefully.> Struug thought a little louder than intended.
Getting his gear in order, Struug threw his pack over one shoulder, turned to the rest of the group, and said, <Yes she did, and we'd best hurry. I don't feel like waiting around to see if the scaly's come back.> He started heading east.
Struug answered, <With all due respect, while I believe you are telling the truth, it doesn't necessarily mean I trust you or your motives. My people have a tendancy to not believe in deities, since we were created by an undead abomination known as The Nameless One.>
Struug looked at the volcano, then back to Freya. <That something wouldn't happen to have anything to with that?> he asked, pointing towards the fiery mountain.
Struug tried to see if he could get an indication of whether or not this woman was lying.
Struug stood puzzled as the lizards left, then he noticed the figure standing the fire. Jumping back, and raising his mace, the Dunauxian Magus readied himself for attack. Then she began to speak. <And just who in the infernal regions are you?> Struug added to Blink's questions.
A lot of tension between Blink and Bjorn, this could get interesting.
Seeing the big man in trouble, Struug focused, stretched forth his hand, and launched a glowing dart of violet energy at the lizard shaking the warrior.
Struug sees the lizards moving towards them and launches a blob of acid at the nearest one.
GM Tierce:
Struug jumped to feet, weapon in hand, eyes darting around all over the place. <SHOW YOURSELF, MONSTER!!!!> he screamed telepathically for all to hear.
Struug felt uneasy during his watch, causing him to keep a hand on his weapon the entire time. When he woke up Lorelei, he warned her, <Keep an extra eye out, there is something out there.> Struug then sat down with his gear and began to draw various arcane symbols in the dirt. He then erased, and re-drew them in a different order and repeated the process.
While in a deep sleep, Struug had restless dreams. For anyone interested: The village was burning. Everyone was dead or dying. Their screams of agony filled the air as much as the smoke did. Struug stood there, facing Nemesis, the minion of The Nameless One. In a rage, the Dunaux rushed the fiend, his mace swinging wildly. Nemesis easily turned the attack aside, grabbed Struug by the throat and lifted him off of the ground. The little Magus struggled with all of his might, but to no avail. Nemesis' eyes glowed a bright crimson as he smiled maliciously, then tossed Struug with extreme force through the wall of a crumbling building. It collapsed upon the helpless Dunaux. As he lay there, struggling to breath, he heard the sound of debris being moved aside. Then he awoke to Bjorn waking him for the third watch.
<As much as I would enjoy taking first watch, I am utterly exhausted and would probably pass out. I'll take third watch>
<Something big.> Struug replied. That's all we need.
<Well if this doesn't just beat all. We better set up a fire for the night, we're going to be here a while.> Struug broadcast telepathically to the others. With great effort, he began to gather materials for the fire.
Struug openned his eyes and looked around, <Wha...? How did I end up here?> With great effort, the Dunauxian Magus got up and searched for survivors.
Struug grabbed onto the rail as the ship shuddered. Seeing the metal spikes and hearing the Captain yelling, the Dunaux stretched forth his hand and launched a glob of acid at the nearest one.
<Well at least the water and air are fresh. Try living in a swamp.> Then a thought occurs to him. <You're Majar aren't you? Is it true that your race doesn't age?>
Struug loudly thought as the ship rocked and he caught himself.
<Pleasure to meet you. I'd imagine an ability like that comes in handy from time to time.> Shaking his head at the back and forth of the two, Struug thinks to himself, They should just fornicate and get it over with. Taking his leave, the Dunaux moved over to the other woman at the rail. <Good day milady, enjoying the trip?>
Pretty much. I used the stats for a hand crossbow but made mountable on a Bracer. Think Poison Ivy from the animated Batman series in the 90's.
Tierce, I just realized that I didn't list what a bracer bow was. Do you want the stats or could you guess what it is? I only bring it up because of Joy, she's playing a Majar and they have proficiency with Bracer Bows.
<Well I come from a swamp, so air quality will not be a problem for me.> Getting down off of the rigging, Struug asked, <I don't believe I caught your name on this voyage. I am known as Struug.>
Coming up from below deck, his dark blue skin seeming to absorb the sunlight, Struug had found the ocean breeze slightly disconcerting. Being from a swampy region, he had become accustomed to the stale air. Ignoring the human pacing on deck, the Dunaux climbed some of the rigging to see over the rail. A volcano? Well if I burn up in the lava at least I won't have to deal with the nightmares. Looking at the Sylph, I wonder what it's like to have wind blowing through your hair? he thought. <Worried about a fiery death?> he asked telepathically.
I had the same problem, hence why I picked this one.
Profile Updated. Let me know if I missed something.
<And I promise you Nemesis, that I'll repay you for what you did to my hive. Yes, you and your little skeleton too.>
Congrats to those who made it. Have fun.
Best of luck to all.
Profile Streamlined.
Then it's smart not to have him go down the well then. Lol.
@GM: Ironically, they're from the same homebrew world, Auralis, I've been working on and off for the past few years. The Velmoru were just the first ones I used the Race Builder on. As far as looks go, they stand as tall as humans and weight as much as Half-Elves. The skin is slightly hardened, think similar to an exoskeleton but not nearly as rigid, and colored from red to yellow. They're eyes are also have no pupil and are various hues of green. Even though they live in the desert, their ears look like they belong on an aquatic creature. Think Lionfish fins, only with four ridges.
Racial description added to profile, hope you like it. I'm just glad I finally get a chance to try this race out. They've been in my head for some time. I do have another race I'd like to try, if you'd allow it.
Marisol - Why are you doing this? Joe - Why? Because I knew someone like you once, and there was no one there to help.
Fallen Mage here, presenting Struug. A race of my own creation called: the Dunaux. For more details, see profile GM: I had to change the race a little, some of the options weren't available to Abberations. The stats are a little rough, but I'll get them cleaned up when I can. |
