As the last dash, Amalina takes a her chance at grabbing at the passing boat.

DM_DM: Did you get my message I sent to you about the updated rules on healing? I was waiting to know if you were OK with them before I posted if I could heal people.
Scholar: Hands of a Healer (replacing the first paragraph of this ability) You know how to treat wounds, illnesses and poisonings. You have a pool of healing tricks and techniques that replenishes when you take a long rest. You have Healing Dice (1d6) equal to 1 plus your Proficiency Bonus.
Amalina walks about the group asking if they have any wounds that need tending. If not, she then returns to the unconscious woodsman and continues to tend him. Odo stays at her heels.
"Indeed...I would not want to remain here any longer than we must. Let us carry on to Rhosgobel and safety." The healer checks on her charge before checking Odo for any damage. She still shudders at the sound of the evil harp and hopes to never hear such a sound again!
"Listen to Radegund. Stop this madness. The Harper is tainted with darkness and evil...can you not see that? Come away from him...join us as fellow Woodsmen!"
Odo's Attack to get harp - Strength Test:
Seeing the others take action against the foul use of dark magic, Amalina feels a tiny spark within herself fight back against the oppression she feels...just enough for her to speak. "Odo...get that harp!" and gesturing to the musical instrument the so-called Harper was strumming.
A great look of concern comes to Amalina's face as she hears what the elf has to say. A cold finger of dread creeps up her spine and her knees begin to slightly tremble.
Waiting to see what is going to happen with Finraeth....
Diplomacy:
"Indeed, if the Brown Wizard is in, he will most certainly stand in judgement of this case. If not, the elders are more than capable of trying a simple case of thievery. Either way, it makes more sense to get him to Rhosgobel to heal and then stand trial. If your master has a complaint, then he can bring it up at the annual Moot." So saying, she turns back to the wounded man and once again adjusts his bandages while Odo keeps watch on the strangers. Diplomacy ??
Will do...your plea on the woodsman's behalf I hope will be enough to turn the tide from violence...
See my post....I would never let a wounded person be taken out of my care unless it was to a healer of higher stature...and even then I would most likely stay with them and help as I could.
"And might I add that this wounded man is in MY care, and if true Woodsmen you be, then you WILL respect this bond. Once we have returned to the town and he is in, what I deem as good health, then you may petition the council for his return to stand trial...but not until he has regained his health!" Traditions:
I picked up most of the books but have only skimmed through them. Spending more time on Loremaster's book and player's book. That being said, there is a new update to the healer class the alters a few of her abilities (I think for the better). Not sure if you have seen this or not (cam in the Loremaster's Screens). I would like to use these new rules if possible (can send them to you if you need them) Thanks
Lore: "Well met. I am Amalina, Healer from Woodman's Town. Who is your lord and from what clan do you hail? I do not think i have ever heard of a place called Amon Bauglir..." She keeps her hand on Odo's shoulder to ensure he does not try and fight the other hounds.
Perception:
Sorry Faem it is still too dark for me to see that far, but I can only assume that if they are humans then, yes, they are my people."
"Indeed...I agree with Magpie. We can always come back, but our party is already bloodied, let's not tempt fate any further. Home to heal, that is my vote!"
Get the heck out of there...no good comes from looking for trouble...and we have already found more than we have wanted!!!
"Sure I can, just a moment." Amalina moves over and, with her arm out, readies to take the goshawk. "Easy there fella. Come on...settle down."
Still shaken by the sudden attacks on the group, Amalina looks at the two little birds in the webbing. "Congratulations Radegund...you have twins!" She then looks over Odo making sure he is ok.
I too am having a great time...I love the atmosphere and interaction between characters!!!
"Odo attack!", Amalina calls out as she herself gets her small hand axe out and swings at the creature that just struck the elf she was helping along. Odo: attack:
Amalina Attack:
Using the torch :-)
Amalina shakes her head at the little gir...errr hobbit?? "Speed will be better right now as we have many injured members of our group that I need to spend more time healing. Magpie and I know these woods well and I think taking the chance is worth it." She pets Odo's head while talking.
"Indeed let's be out of here. Whatever happened just now has Odo..and well to be honest me as well, on edge. Odo can help lead us back as well...he knows the dangers of the woods as well as any of us, don't you boy! You can also lean against him if you feel faint or need to steady yourself." With all her equipment packed, Amalina is ready to go.
As Odo begins to bay, Amalina moves over to the huge animal and tries to keep him silent. "Shssss...Odo. Quiet boy, what is it??" Animal Handling:
I thought it was a great way to start introducing riddles into the game...they did play a very important part in The Hobbit!! :-)
From her place by the wounded man, Amalina mutters "Day and night."
We could say by the time we get to him, check his wounds and prepare the tincture and poultice an hour has expired and, feeling her powers renewed, Amalina moves ahead and heals him...or not. Your call :-)
LOL...I was confused and actually look to see if it was heal...I get systems confused all the time!!
Amalina shakes her head after looking at the paralyzed man. "This is odd. He was poisoned with the slow sting, which should have him completely immobile, but he is trying to speak..." Rummaging around her healer's satchel she gathers a number of different herbs and places them in her mouth, chewing each separately, then spitting the soggy mess into a cheese-cloth sachet. She then placed the poultice onto the wound. Next, she takes a small vial of some liquid and, prying the man's mouth open, pours the tincture into the fellow's mouth. "Now we wait. If this works, then he should come around shortly."
In the flickering light, Amalina examines the body the little girl brought her to. Medicine:
Amalina follows the child to where the other wounded traveller lay. "My goodness! How long has he been a captive of the spiders?" Medicine: She tries to check the body in the gloom of the forest before she can give any type of healing.
Hearing of another possible patient, Amalina looks up from her ministration on Finraeth. "I am Amalina, the Healer. Where is this friend of yours?"
Once back in a safer part of the woods, Amalina motions those carrying Finraeth to lower him to the ground. She spends about 10 minuted preparing a poultice and mixing healing herbs before applying them to the wounded elf. Healing Hands:
Was planning to do just that...just wanted to make sure we were safe before I spent the time!!
Watching them fall, Amalina rushes forward (as fast as is safe) and quickly examines the elf and Radegund for injuries. "Give me a moment to stabilize Fin, then let's get out of here. Once we are safe I can examine everyone's injuries...OK?" Medicine:
Stifling a scream as she watches the spider try to make off with Fin, Amalina loads her sling and fires a rock at the retreating spider, praying to all the gods of her people that it hits and the spider either dies or drops the elf! Attack:
Amalina again attacks the spider trying to carry off the elf, and sets her hound, Odo, onto the thing as well. "Attack Odo!!" she commands her hairy companion. Attack:
Odo Attack:
Seeing the elf fall to the monstrous spiders, Amalina moves forward and hacks at the one pulling him away. Attack:
Seeing one of the spiders fall, Amalina loads up her sling and fires at the next one closest to her. Attack:
That is great!! I wish our police here had the same sense of humour!!
Amalina moves to help the entangled elf, but then a pure light shines from him and the webs seem to melt away. Standing in awe of the sight, she almost forgets to fire her sling again but seeing the spiders hesitate, she is emboldened and aims at the wounded one again. Attack:
"Back to the dead woods where you spawn and leave us alone!", she shouts at the hairy monsters.
Watching their elven companion, Amalina attempts to place her sling stone in the same area. Once she has fired her shot, she moves carefully forward towards the distant firelight. Attack:
Initiative:
SPIDERS!! The sound has been drilled into Amalina's head since birth. There is nothing in the woods that sounds like it and nothing that sends the chill of fear down a person's spine. While her first thought was to run, she realizes that the fire is what has attracted the creatures, and whoever is there will be unprepared. She and her group have a chance to strike while the spiders are focused on those at the fire, or they can slink away and leave the others to the horrible beasts. She quickly decides to help! "I think we need to help those poor people by the fire. We can try to ambush the spiders as they pass...they will most likely be too focused on the fire and we might be able to hurt them before they can surprise those travellers...or whoever they are. What do you think?"
"Wait a moment Radegund...look over there. Do you see a light? Someone else is out in this bog in the dark it would seem...I wonder who it might be? Perhaps we should have a look and see. They might need help!" Amalina looks to the elf and her fellow woodsman to see what they think.
"Easy now fella...I know how you feel, but we have to keep a steady pace we can all follow." As she is quietly speaking to Odo, Amalina peers into the growing gloom.
Say fellas...does anyone have a torch or lantern? I did not expect to be out this late and did not bring mine!"
