Some questions over in discussion, but for now this will work. As the beast attempts to rise Tariel swings her mace, hopeing to add injury to insult.
As her new allies attack, Tariel glares at the creature, and says "Del neteth al frelderek, do alner fari" Translation:
"Your plan is foolish, you shall fall" Again attempting Spirit Memories. DC 15 will save, or Sickened and Staggered

Couple of questions. Type of Knowledge needed to ID this thing. IC that should give us the knowledge of its silver weaknesses. At which point I start throwing Silver coins like a pokemon that just learned Payday. Speaking of which, those would be what? improvised thrown weapon, 1 damage, 10ft range? last question. How big was the church, how close are we, and how likely are they to have silver candlesticks?

Tariel looked on in horror as the beast struck down the woman without a moments hesitation. She had expected a confrontation, but not this close to the church. It had been foolish of her, just like so many other times she had been foolish, to think they could lure the killer out without his target getting injured. Her mind flashed back to all the others she had failed to save over the millennia, and she screamed "Neth Tavren", and drew her mace.
Azlanti:
"Not Again" Using Spirit Memories. DC 15 will save, or Sickened and Staggered.

"I'm going to try and get close to the potential bait. Follow us if this works."Tariel says, before turning to the closest person who had exited to church and asks, "What was the sermon about today?"
Kn. Religion: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

Tariel giggles again, before sighing wistfully, "Even Thassilon is long gone ties comples, they call this land Varisia now, on the continent of Avistan."
Azlanti:
"My friend" though the use of the formal form of My makes it more somewhere between that and "My professional acquaintance." She looks around, "I believe you are right, perhaps we should be on our guard, yes?" perception: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Tariel snorted, and then laughed aloud at that, "I've travelled with some of his followers in my time, and they never said, but I bet he did. He loved to hear himself talk, though I'm not sure how often followers can hear their gods." she giggled again, "That probably annoyed him to no end. It is good to know the language hasn't died out completely, I remember the humans stopped using it regularly around the time of Thassilon, as they had a much different language, and most Azlanti stopped viewing themselves as refugees as they integrated with the rest of the world. I do wonder why though, why do your people still teach such an old language? Its obviously useless as a trade language, which is probably why you learned it in the first place. Why not switch to teaching this 'common' tongue as a second, and hold off on others for the scholars?

Tariel looked up towards the front of the group as they gathered for their journey, but rushing headlong into danger had gotten her killed more than a few times. Besides, the rather large man had already taken his position with their guide without comment, and she would rather not disrupt such an ingrained routine. She instead moves to the back of the group, to act as a lookout, where the rather... Interesting is a polite word she decides, yes, interesting half elven man is standing. Remembering his ramblings from earlier, she looks to him and says "Tos averal Azlant? Nel talek volteair piel, da ti envic, paldos il tos eldek?"
Azlanti Translation: "You speak Azlanti? Not many do these days, that I have seen, where did you learn?"

"Well, at least the streets are clean." Tariel says, slightly disappointed at the loss of potential information. "The church is most likely our best bet then, yah." She says, nodding in the elfish looking mans direction. The mayor's assistant's odd behaviour interests her, and she tries to think if she interacted with anyone called Blackthorn the last time she had been in the city, all those years ago. If I can get any of that with a Kn. History, here you go. If not, oh well, just hope I don't waste a 20.

Tariel keeps her hand extended to the others for a moment, before sighing and replacing it by her side. She walks over to the body saying "On to business then. Cause of death was this bite mark here. Carnivore, canine specifically, but before that she was struck here, in the chest, with some form of large bladed weapon with some crushing power behind it. An axe most likely. This leaves us with two possibilities: two killers, a humanoid and an animal, or a canine humanoid, such as a werewolf or Gnoll. Perhaps an examination of the crime scene is in order?"

"Water?" she looks confused for a moment, before her eyes light up with comprehension. "Ah, yes! I always forget about things like that. Magic is just so useful and fun, especially simple spells like that, that I always think of it before more mundane solutions." she walks over to any water basin set up for such an occasion, and says "Prodesca" while waving her hand over it. Any murkyness from previous such washings disappears, and she runs her hands through it a few times, before repeating the spell for the next user. She then proceeds to shake hands with anyone willing, while saying, "I have no problems handling dead bodies, we will all be one someday anyway, I just think it's rude to shake with dirty hands." Using Purify Food and Drink to purify the water, she doesn't plan on drinking it, but I think it still counts.

A young, heavily tanned woman stands over the body, examining it closely. Her cloths are mostly brown, with a few red accents, under a open cloak of deep crimson, and she looks chipper and excited, despite her rather gruesome work. She looks up as you enter and says, "Ah, greetings. I'll be with you in a moment."
Her examination finished, she wipes her hands on her cloak and approaches the gathered group. "My name is Tariel." she says, and extends a hand briefly before thinking better of it. "I would shake, but my hands are all dead persony. Anybody know any cleaning spells?"

I would post timight but a coworker mixed,me a really strong drink in revenge for something rhat happened earlier this week, I work at a restaurant, and I don't trust my writing skills right now. I will ask though, can I use a Heal check to determine which injury was cause of death? And should I roll History to see if I remember anything like this from 'Before'?

Background: Tariel was first born near the end of the ancient Azlanti empire, and was a scholar at a prestigious school for magic during her short life. She was only twenty-five when Earthfall came, and that should have been the end of it for her. She doesn't know why she 'woke up' a hundred years later in the body of another young woman, but she has been doing it for millennia since.
She has often been on the sidelines for great events, or events that would later turn out to be great. Convincing a few of her friends and traveling companions to give in to their mutual attraction has led to bloodlines that produced legendary heroes or powerful rulers. She has offered small bits of advice that led to the development of some of the strongest spells of our time. She has been present for the defeat of demon lords, and the sacrifice of noble angels. And she has awoken in modern times in the body of a merchants daughter. Three years ago Eliza Tabeli regained her ancient memories and, as she has so many times now, set out to see how the world has changed in her absence. Or did she? In her darkest moments Tariel wonders if she really did live all those lifetimes. Perhaps she is simply Eliza Tabeli, a young Oracle cursed with the ability to see the past in the same way others can see the future, and it has driven her mad. She has no way of knowing either way, and so pushes these dark thoughts to the side as she gazes in wonder at the sights of the fabled 'City of Monuments.' There is adventure to be had here, and it is with this in mind that she approaches Irthir, fresh off of helping a group of healers in a poor section of town deal with a strange disease, eager for another assignment. |
