Tarek Delrin's page

Tarek contemplates the shared knowledge.

We know there should be more orcs in these ruins and we have surmised that they must be out on hunting or raiding parties. I do not think it would be wise to perform the ritual here. I think it is best to either take the remains back to Lastwall or perform the ritual in a safer location nearby. We can wrap the remains in my cloak and take them and the sword with us. What does everyone think?

Tarek uses guidance to aid him as he searches through the text

Knowledge Religion: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Tarek removes his cloak and lays it next to the mound of soil and begins digging carefully.
I think this may be the location of the warrior's remains. Dig carefully and place what you find on my cloak so we can return her remains to the Knights. Her body should be given a proper and more significant burial for her status

I have a few spells left to aid in healing. It may be best to save your wand for a more dire situation.

War Blessing:1
1st level:3
2nd level:1

Tarek focuses his mind and calls forth divine energy once more. Strengthening his healing with the aid of his War Blessing, Tarek uses cure moderate Wounds on Caoilte

Cure Moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (8, 2) + 4 = 14+50%
Caoilte should be healed for 21 points

Tarek then focuses healing energy on Arklore
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
Ark should be healed 15pts

Isador, is it safe to remove to sword? I believe we were to retrieve the sword and anything else that we may find buried here

Tarek takes a swipe at the orc

Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Hearing the attack from behind the party, Tarek moves quickly to engage the orc

Tarek takes a double move this round which should place him in front of the orc after moving 40 feet

Tarek will stick with his last posted actions. Cast divine Favor and move back into the room

Tarek calls forth divine energies to enhance his attack. He unhooks his chakram from his belt and addresses the group
Let's get this over with. Ark, can you burn the web so the rest of us can charge in? I am moving in so let's get into place

Tarek casts Divine Favor
Tarek readies his chakram for a ranged attack and moves into the room while avoiding the web

These rooms all seem to be interconnected. Can we get in behind it and attack from both sides? If we can't then I say try burning the web and the rest of us continue our assault on the orc. We can't fire through the web but we can prepare ourselves for battle

Tarek looks closely at Caoilte's wounds
I do not think that last healing spell patched you up as much as I had hoped. Before we take action, let me try to call forth some divine healing once more.

Casts Cure Moderate wounds: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (7, 6) + 4 = 17

Tarek smiles as he sees visible signs of the wounds closing
Hopefully, that will keep you on your feet a bit longer

Spells Remaining
War Blessing: 1
1st level: 4
2nd level: 1

Tarek takes a full move action and moves into the room behind Isador and with Arklore but he will move out of view of the orc

Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the web, Tarek moves into the adjacent room to regroup.

Speaking softly once everyone is together Can we attack this brute from two sides? So far, our assault is not going in our favor. Any thoughts on the next plan of attack?

I had posted casting cure moderate on Caoilte but then the server crashed I guess it never went through. I will attempt again

Tarek takes a step back and calls forth divine healing energy to aid Caoilte
Cure Moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (5, 3) + 4 = 12

Too funny. That is the exact roll that was made when server went down

Are the 3 squares next to the orc obstacles or a barrier of some type? They look to be offset and I am unsure what they represent [ooc]

Tarek moves into the room to aid Caoilte in the fight
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

[ooc]If Tarek is unable to attack, he will move into the room and cast enlarge on himself while maintaining a distance of 10 feet from the orc

I would suggest holding on to that potion for now. We may need it's potent healing ability deeper in these catacombs. I can use a minor healing to aid Caoilte
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

Tarek looks around the room
These markings and the lead plates are unusual. I wonder what their purpose was?

Tarek will use read magic to see if any of the markings make sense and he will also use detect magic to see if there are any lingering auras in addition to the magic items that were found

Tarek's anger grows as the orc attempts a dirty strike You will pay for that you swine!

Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28
Crit Confirmation: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
Primary Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Crit 2x Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Crit 3x Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11
Good Blessing Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Tarek continues his assault on the massive orc
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25
Falcata Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Damage vs Evil: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Tarek takes another swing at the orc
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

sorry for late post. I was under the impression that posting wasn't resuming until the middle of the week

Prepared for battle, Tarek rushes forward to aid Caoilte and attacks the massive creature

Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7
If creature is evil
War Blessing Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

We need to move forward and I get the sense that evil is ahead. We should prepare ourselves for what may be on the other side of that door. I plan on moving quickly to take advantage of any surprise we may have. Is everyone ready?

Tarek waits for everyone to check their gear and ready spells and weapons before opening the door

Tarek calls forth divine energy and blesses his blade with the war blessing of good. He sheaths his blade, opens the door and moves quickly inside. He will move to the left once he enters to allow others to follow.

Here we go!

I am posting this action but Tarek will not open the door until everyone is ready and he will postpone his action if there are any objections to his action. This war blessing will not be cast until right before he opens the door.

Perception: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

Tarek informs the group of his findings.

I am sensing some evil west of us. It may be a bit premature to cast any spells but we should proceed with caution. Isador, if you are going to scout ahead, I can give you a little divine guidance to aid you

Tarek touches Isador on the shoulder and speaks a blessing of guidance

Guidance will give Isador +1 on an attack or skill check that he chooses. It lasts for one min until used

I don't believe Tarek rolled for his fort save when they entered the new area

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Let me see if I sense anything before we open the door
Tarek opens his shining wayfinder and enables it's ability to detect evil. He moves in a slow arc from left to right to see if it detects anything.

This statue was carved in honor of Kols, son of Torag. Apparently it is depicting the legendary story of his battle with Droskar. If I remember the legend correctly, he turned Droskar into a snake and almost choked him to death before he managed to slither away and escape.Tarek follows Arklore's lead and heads to the steel door

Tarek takes a close look at the statue
Knowledge Religion: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Tarek uses 2 uses of cure light wounds on Caoilte
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
Cure Light Wounds: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

the best and worst dice rolls possible

Brew. Before we move on to other areas I think the party needs a moment to assess injuries. Tarek has limited spells and his focus is not on healing. He has already used 2 of his 2nd level spells. I would suggest everyone use any heal potions they have. Tarek will use up to 3 of his 1st level spells to cast CLW on those who need it

After seeing Caoilte freed from the grasp of the tentacle, Tarek grabs his sword and continues his assault on the strange beast.

Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Tarek calls upon divine healing, hoping it is enough to aid Caoilte

cure moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (1, 6) + 4 = 11

Tarek has used 2 second level spells and has 2 left

Brew, is Tarek able to move into a position to heal Caoilte without incurring an attack of opportunity?

Tarek continues his assault, hoping to take a fatal chunk out of the tentacled creature
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Tarek takes a chop at the strange beast

+1 Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Even the GM can't make a decent roll for Tarek. This is going to be rough adventure

I wonder if these abominations were guarding something?

Tarek casts detect magic and scans the room

Nice shot Arklore. My sword could not find its mark. I hope this place is not interfering with my divine connection. Let me see if I can patch up Caoilte before we move on.

Tarek takes a few moments in quiet meditation before calling upon the powers of healing

Cure Moderate Wounds: 2d8 + 4 ⇒ (2, 1) + 4 = 7

Tarek shakes his head as the results of the heal were less than adequate

I fear this place has been fouled and the negative energy is preventing me from channeling the Divine powers I need. I hope these effects are only temporary.

Tarek curses under his breath as the unholy aura of the ruins interferes with his ability to focus and strike the abomination
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Tarek takes another swing at the skeleton closest to him, hoping this time his sword finds it's mark
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20
Falcata Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Tarek takes another swing at closest skel
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15
Falcata Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Ok, I am done trying to move tokens. I tried to move Tarek's token and the only option was to copy and paste. Somehow it deleted the map and would not let me undo the action.

Tarek moves up to assist Caoilte in attacking the skels
Falcata Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
Falcata Damage: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

When I look at slides it says "View Only" under the title of Tomb Righteous Repose.

When I went to look for sending a request I found this: You can only request edit access from a computer, but you can see what access you already have on your phone or tablet.

I will have to log in from my computer tomorrow and see if I can send a request.

I downloaded Google slides and I am able to see the changes that were made to the map. I am unable to move Tarek's token from my mobile device. I can highlight the token when I touch it but it does not allow me to move it

I am not sure what map we are looking at. When I click the link above it takes me to a page with 6 different images. The one that looks like the map doesn't look any different than when you first posted the link. If there were changes made then I do not see them

Tarek will purchase 4 potions of CLW for $200 gold

it has been awhile since we have rped a lengthy journey. Do we need to buy food and water for the trip or will it be provided by the society?

Excellent! So the journey begins once more. I believe I have all that I need for the trip except for several days of extra provisions for the journey. I may have a look in the bag to see if anything will be of use to us.

Tarek peeks in the bag provided by Basnik

Very nice. These two wands will come in handy. I don't think anyone else can use them so it may be better if I keep them close. If I am wrong then please speak up. Spreading the magic around the party would definitely be better if they can be used by others

No knowledge in Geography to help. If an untrained skill check is allowed then I will make a roll and any bonus can be added if it applies

Aid Another-Knowledge Geography (untrained): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

Very interesting. I now understand the reference to the house of Torag. Is the dwarven ruin very far?

There is still one phrase within the poem that is not clear. Isador, do you recall anything about Kayla's Tears?

I don't seem to recall anything of significant value or that will help us pinpoint a starting location

Tarek rubs the back of his neck as he tries to unravel the clues. He then turns to Bresnik

Is there a library nearby or local historian that we could we speak to?
