Tes looks forlornly at Vitrius, the creature she had grown up to fear who had sacrificed so much as an ally to her and those chosen with her. With the little life left Tes gathers it all into one dark ball, she then releases it at the Eldrazi, she know it will not be enough to slay them all but even if it slays one that is one less roaming around to slay her people, or anyone else in the land that she so loves, Zendikar.
Tes yet again reaches out in an attempt to finish the spawner off completely. Death Touch -
Tes tries to hold her breath CON and manages to do so! Tes yet again reaches out in an attempt to destroy the spawner. Death Touch -
Tes rises crackling with energy, perhaps if she stopped to think of the source she would be concerned but for now, stopping the Nemesis is her only concern. She approaches the pod thrower, Touch Attack rend reality. Tes finally reaches the threat, she is at risk, risk of losing herself but it is a desperate hour and desperate measures must be taken.
Tes' vice sounds hollow, devoid of the warmth that it once contained as she speaks, "Gentlemen, keep this creature occupied, I will deal wth the pod..." She dives out of the way of the exploding Eldrazi and attempts to race around the newest horror to get to the true threat. Dexterity She grimaces as the offal that were the goblin Eldrazi strike her with great force.
Yes but to destroy them with it, only for that purpose! Tes responds to the odd thoughts in her head... "Gentlemen, do we retreat and regroup? Dawncaller, these creatures are Eldrazi, ancient alien beings of terrible power who threaten our home!"
Tes waits to see if her allies need her healing powers.
Initiative Tes stares at the object to see the trajectory of the pod to ensure that she can timely dodge it.
Tes pauses, "Vitrius, that Goblin has some sort of contraption that can peer into or maybe teleport us to I think other places shall we say. Are we sure we want to give it to whoever it is you are working for?"
"Holy!" she smiles never so happy to have seen a Vampire before. "We were trying to rescue you but we couldn't find you but now we did... so what the hell happened? Phaerlin died I guess you felt that too right?" She frowns as she thinks again about her fallen comrade.
Hi DM Default. Completely understand. I am fine with having one last battle :-) The PCS can always bottle wayward Kaka and Kick if that makes it easier on you.
KTKD: Tes shakes her head tired of the delay and calls out, "Come on out or get yourself gone!"
Did we lose Kala?
KTKD: Tes speaks, "That was an advantage you should not have given him Dawncaller, if he knows who you are he can make a judgment on how best to combat you, knowledge is power".
She holds back on a spell though as the shadowy figure has yet to take an overtly aggressive action.
KTKD: Tes reaches for her mace only to realize that she no longer has it. She grimaces and begins to recall the words to a spell to her lips...
KTKD: Tes nods in agreement, "We should stick together to be sure. Let's hurry back to Zapley's then we can regroup and figure out how to accomplish our task..."
KTKD: Tes will curtsy, "Fair indeed. We shall get you your Elf in exchange for our Vampire".
She turns and follows Dawncaller as she does not want to get stuck here.
KTKD: Tes inspects her right back.
Tes shrugs, "If entertainment is currency then perhaps a round in this Arena of yours is what it will take to obtain the information we seek? Still, is there not something that is outside of this place, a service that we could perform that would be better suited for such a simple question as the one we seek the answer to? I am sure you have "interesting acts" here all the time. How often do you have people willing to perform services "outside" of these confines, especially from beings who are in no way connected to you..."
KTKD: "Ah right already sold. Heh. It's been a heck of a day forgot that little detail...
So this is really more of an information request than anything else you see."
KTKD: Tes smiles weakly at Dawncaller's response, "Yep , we sure are".
Then she clams up. -----------
Tes smiles, "We can help you by removing some extra bodies you no longer need I mean it's really crowded around here, one less mouth to feed. Or at least one in particular..." She does not give the name, not yet.
KTKD: "Thank you for the advice and the assistance big guy. So I'm curious to a fault, why help us?"
KTKD: Tes listens to the conversation but adds nothing, clearly this man they have met is a skilled warrior to survive such harsh conditions. Let's just hope he is not trying to entrap us as well...
Cool.
KTKD: Tes shakes her head, "No a free sample I take with me, use elsewhere and then come back hooked. Don't you know how this whole thing works? Oh forget the whole idea". Tes leads Kala by the hand and motions to Kick to come along.
KTKD: Tes calls out to Dawncaller, "No wait stranger, we certainly do need your help. I just wanted to finish this transactions first!"
She then turns back to the spicedealer, "Sorry, that price is far too steep. How about a free sample or two so we can test it?" Persuasion
KTKD: Tes turns back to the dealer, "How much per dose of this spice you are offering?"
Tes to Kala Whispering: "Sister, we mat well be able to use this spice to lull our friends jailors to sleep, there may then yet be a use for these wares".
KtkD: Tes considers speaking then pauses, "Good to know thank you atranger. Tell me, could one use this spice to spike another's drink let's say?"
KTK and Dawncaller: Tes looks at the hooded figure irritably before she can speak she hears the sound behind her. She whirls around to stare at the figure a spell at the tip of her tongue waiting for the figure to make an aggressive move...
KTK: Tes groans, whether this is a trap or an overbearing salesperson she is wary as she steps forward not wanting Kick to get separated from her or Kala. She looks up to make sure no creatures are attempting to entrap them from above.
KTK: Keeping Kala close Tes follows along though with more hesitation than Kick. She considers casting a spell but instead chooses to hold back her power, as they may well need it...
KTK: Tes is dubious about the ability for her and her friends to execute a successful rescue but she follows along anyhow as she will not leave her allies to go it alone.
Tes nods at Kick's comments. "I think you will be ok but I should probably place a hood or something to hide my face, you too Kala, else we attract the wrong sort of attention at this place".
KTK: "How about if we help you, you provide us with coin from the Izzet Guild? Then we can hire those mercenaries, I assume that we can get started on this now yes? Time is wasting..."
KTK: "Are you saying we can use this window to strike our enemies from afar once we know how to use it properly? Is that what our captors were trying to do? Study us to use our powers for their own purposes?"
"Do the Rakdos have enemies that would aid us here if for no other reason that to strike at the Rakdos Zapley?"
KTK: Tes looks at both Kala and Kick, "So we stepped through a window of sorts to come here then? Are they invisible windows or do they emanate from a specific location Zapley?"
Fascinated by the theory Tes almost forgets about her Ally, "Still, we need to rescue Vitrius. This place may be dangerous but we will have the advantage as they do not know we are coming. You know how to get into their location Zapley?"
KTK: "What is the World Window?"
KTK: Tes shivers, "Then you felt it as well Kala? We have failed our friend. Still, that doe snot mean that we cannot rescue Vitrius and make whoever did this to our ally answer for their crimes!"
Tes blinks as she realizes that this place just seems to get stranger by the day, "I have had enough experimenting for the day thank you Zapley..." Tes goes to remove the wires then pauses, "Though if you think you could learn something about our condition perhaps it would not be such a bad thing".
Non Vampires: "We will certainly need clothes my friend. I agree I feel strange not bad though a good strange. Kick Lick do you know what is in that outdoor area? Perhaps that will grant Kala the focus she needs".
Kick-lick, Tes, Kala: Tes nods, she had thought it was a different faction. She switches her focus to getting a safe location unseen.
Kick-Lick, Tes, and Kala: "Do we know who it was that captured us? Kala and I had very little time to look around and identify our captors. I have an idea of who they were based on my reading but I prefer facts over conjecture".
Tes, Kala, Kick-Lick: Tes shrugs, "Seems like a plan to me".
As she follows Tes asks Kick, "The Rakdos, those are the faction aligned with Demons eh? Exactly how big was this Demon that took our Allies?"
Tes, Kala, Kick-Lick: "Perhaps she has also had an experience like ours, one that sees to have granted us abilities heretofore not known?
Kick can you shake her out of it maybe? We may also need you to find us some clothes once the shops open. Once that is all taken care of, the question becomes how do we rescue our allies? Unless of course they were taken to another location..."
NVC: "Zapley, what can you tell us of this place from which we just escaped? Who are these people?"
NVC: Once Tes catches her breath she look back at her allies. "Kala, do you know what Kick said?"
"Do either of you think that our friends are still back there and may need our help...?"
NVC: Tes continues to sprint along. "Kick, how did you get free?"
[spoiler=Tes & Kala] Tes follows Kala back to the hallway, "Let's head up the way they came down. I fear my little trick can't be used again, wherever it came from... There must be some way out of this place".
It's fine! Real life always comes first. And you're better than a lot anyway, most people can't post everyday while DMing. +1, I know I can't post everyday in the games I run! FYI. I will be moving tomorrow and out of touch again till Sunday at the earliest. Please bot me as needed!
Tes & Kala: Tes cals out to Kala, "Pssst. Let's head down into another lab, perhaps we can free other "test subjects" to assist in the escape?" Tes ducks down the corridor assuming that Kala will follow.
Tes and Kala: Tes looks at the offices longingly knowing that the answer to why they were taken probably resides there. If not for Kala bounding away she would have headed in that direction, instead she follows her now four legged friend up the stairs.
