I agree completely with Tribim, I'll be here when and if you are ready Great Cat, you take care of family for now and don't worry about us.
Vinexa got her bedroll put away and was ready to go when the others were. She gave the old woman a half smile and said, "Thanks for letting us stay," before she started to follow the others out. As Vigny passed her that hungry look crossed Vinexa's face and she started to reach out towards the holy knight but she stopped herself with some effort and let her hand drop to her side. Vinexa's ears drooped as she followed everyone out of the house and dealt with her sudden guilt. Once they were on the trail again Vinexa kept shifting towards Vigny seemingly as if iron drawn to a magnet. A strange expression crossed her face each time realized where she was and Vinexa put some space between herself and the others until it happened again in a cycle as they headed towards the cave.
When Vinexa woke the next morning she was cutely curled up like a cat in her bedroll and she felt like absolute garbage! This was a regular thing for Vinexa to deal with , her very nature made her like this, and she was going to be miserable until she could sate her need. It was perhaps made worse by the fact she had ended the day so well fed, she didn't normally have that much energy taken in a day and the sudden fall off when it was all gone made her feel far worse than normal. She stretched her whole body in one languorous arch and then sat there ass eh began to lick her hands and use them to smooth out her hair and groom herself like a cat while her gaze kept getting drawn to Vigny hungrily.
Vinexa entered the house and saw the kind of place it was. It was small but for a single woman living alone it was the right size. She nodded politely and aid, "Thank you for letting us stay." She moved to a corner and Vinexa removed her pack and placed it on the floor. She stretched and sat while they began to talk with the lady.
Vinexa found the swamp distasteful but she was keeping her thoughts to herself. Truthfully she was rather sure the others weren't happy about the place either but if they wanted to find the skeletons they would need to just deal with it. When they reached the witch's hut and the old woman came out Vinexa was kind of surprised to see someone like her living alone out here. Of course as a witch she was probably better capable than most people. "No, I am most definitely not a skeleton," Vinexa said, and then glanced to Sona briefly and then back to the old woman, "and most definitely a spellcaster of a sort too."
Vinexa considered what they had found and knew that she would really like to get back to town. Still, if there are undead this close to Sandpoint they could quickly become a problem if they didn't at least investigate them first. After considering she said, "Much as I would like to return to town I think we should at least look into this cave. If it seems too dangerous we can always return to town for help."
Vinexa winced at the loud boom as it hurt her sensitive ears but she quickly moved in to help with the fighting. She stepped in to get one of the goblins between herself and one of her allies and lashed out with both claws.
I will be out of town Aug 3-7 at Gencon and won't be able to post much/at all during that time.
With a new fight starting and a goblin down already, Vinexa quickly moved in to help with the fighting. She moved in on the closest of the two goblins hacking at teh door and lashed out with her clawed hand.
When the last goblin tried to run away Vinexa lashed out with the claws of one hand as a parting swat.
Vinexa then looked around before taking out a cloth and wiping the goblin blood off of her claws. "Yes, let's finish here and then follow the fleeing goblins."
Vinexa heard the loud bang as teh firework exploded and the screaming goblin it left behind even as Tarka jumped from the now smouldering hut. Vinea followed right behind him and went for the smoking goblin lashing out with one of her claws.
Venexa was surprised when one of the goblins actually came into the hut after them causing the big Ronso to move back from it. She quickly lashed out with her claws, not trying to do anything but sheer damage this time around, at the goblin right next to her.
Unfortunately the shifty little bastard was faster than she expected and her attacks missed the mark.
Without a good target to attack Vinexa moved up to flank the doorway in case any of the goblins tried to enter the building.
Have we regenerated MP at some point?
Vinexa sighed as the goblin screamed while dying, she had hoped that it would at least remain unconscious in it's coma state. Nothing to be done for it now. "So do we fight or try to run?"
Vinexa found the idea of what they would be fighting more than a little disturbing and knew she would have significant troubles fighting it. She needed more energy and decided that it would be wise to get it now as unobtrusively as she could. She knelt next to one of the goblins and began to stroke it's head gently several times. The goblin seemed to enjoy the touch considerably but after the sixth stroke of it's head the creature, now exceptionally calm, passed out. Vinexa rose and moved away since she knew what Tibrim was going to do so she walked away and waited. Vinexa looked much more vibrant than she had before, more full of life, and very alluring. GM: Since the goblin doesn't seem to be resisting us Vinexa is going to try and "soothe" it to calm it down and each stroke of it's head is a drain touch. It would take six to take all of it's charisma and knock it unconscious assuming the bestiary goblin entry is accurate. If I need to roll anything specific let me know.
So you all know I will be out of town on June 8th through the 12th for Origins in Ohio. I will be effectively unable to post during that time.

Vinexa was quite pleased with how well her spell worked as they slipped past teh crocodile. She almost felt sorry for it given how badly it was tricked but better to trick it than get eaten. That was not the kind of eaten she liked. They rest of the trip to the village was still unpleasant but at least there were no more carnivorous reptiles on the way. When they reached the goblin village Vinexa nodded in agreement with the place being too quiet. The fact there were skeletal footprints found made the felinoid woman more than a little anxious. She didn't like undead, she couldn't drain them properly as they lacked a soul to feed from...OK a vampire might be alright but nothing else! "I don't like this, undead are no fun to play with."
Vinesa nodded and had her spell cast when the lizard started looking around for the source of the rock. What it saw was an illusory goblin with another rck ready to throw and a look of "Oh shit" on it's face when the lizard looked at it.
As they moved through the foul swamp Vinexa was trying very hard to remember why she agreed to come on this horrendous expedition.
She was so disgusted with the foul swamp that she really couldn't notice anything more than the stench of it! Awful! Fortunately the others were paying more attention than she was and someone spotted the lurking threat. "I could try and lure it out," she said, "I can cast an illusion to try and get it to attack it and spring the trap early."
Vinexa felt better after striking the goblin and taking a bit of his soul for herself. It was invigorating even if it was from a goblin. She always worried that she would become too fond of the rush, the way it felt for the hunger to be relieved and she knew as long as she felt concern that she was probably safe. Her ruminations were cut short as they approached the hut and met Walthus Proudfur. She smiled, her sharp canines flashing, and said, "Hi, I'm Vinexa, nice to meet you Mr Proudfur." As those better with directions obtained them Vinexa found herself wondering what a moggle's soul tasted like. The goblin had been kind of ikcy, she wondered if moogle would be fluffy and light. Realizing she might be looking at the moogle hungrily Vinexa turned her gaze away and looked around and then went to check the goblins, just in case one was still alive somehow, she knew she could feed some more that way and likely not get caught and she was till quite hungry.
Vinexa deftly dodged her goblin foe before she lashed out with both claws.
GM: I will be doing one point of Cha dmg instead of the rolled dmg for each claw attack.
Vinexa moved quickly towards the goblin most isolated from the others and when she reached it lashed out with the claws of one hand.
GM: In the off chance that actually hits I will be doing one point of Cha dmg instead of the rolled dmg.
Hearing the fireworks and seeing the goblins ahead Vinexa cursed herself for not casting this spell ahead of time. She chanted and gestured and protective magic formed around her like armor to protect her from the fight to come.
Vinexa realized about then that she actually didn't have her pack with her at the moment so she said, "Oh shit! Just a moment!" She ran off to where she stayed in town incredibly fast before returning with her pack. She bent over, her bosom heaving, as she placed her hand on her knees and panted. She looked up a bit sheepishly and said, "OK, now I'm ready." Once they were on their way Vinexa stayed behind Tarka so his bulk would make her presence less obvious. It would make her fights much easier if she used the big Ronso as a distraction so she could sneak around him and attack unexpectedly.
Vinexa thought over what she might need for the journey and after a moment said, "I should have everything that I need already, at least enough for the next five days anyway." She waited with Sona and any others not making a purchase or telling someone where they were going and waited impatiently.
GM and Sona:
Vinexa nodded and gave Sona a smile, "I'm Vinexa." She looked Sona over once now that she was clean and said, "You clean up nicely Sona." Her gaze shifted to Koya and Vinexa added, "I'll watch out for her Koya." Vinexa listened to the Sheriff explain the task and their contact in the marsh. It seemed straight forward enough and she knew she might be able to charm one or two of the goblins into surrendering and coming with them peacefully. "Or maybe they can just be charmed into coming with us. Violence isn't always the answer after all."
Vinexa went with those she met to see the sheriff about the posted job request. As they did Vinexa heard what Koya said to Sona and felt a wash of guilt. She should have tried to do more to help her, Koya and her own family had taught her better, Vinexa looked at the woman and said, "You look like you could use some money and we're off to see the Sheriff about a goblin hunt. Why don't you come with us?" As they made their way towards where the Sheriff could be found Vinexa walked along she gave flirting looks and gestures to those she passed who caught her fancy. Once they reached the Sheriff Vinexa gave him a coquettish smile and said, "You called Sheriff Hemlock? Have you finally decidded to succumb to my whiles?" The suggestion was heavy in her words but how serious Vinexa was is anyone's guess.
Vinexa smiled and reached over to scratch Tibrim's other ear with one hand and looked up at Tarka as she held the other up before her and said, "I am a cat," she made a claw like gesture as she said, "and I have claws."
Vinexa, after reading the flier and hearing these others speak said, "Hm, this job sounds interesting. I really should get out more and it would be a good chance to test what I can do." Vinexa watched almost hungrily as Vigny stretched before her eyes shifted to the big ronso Tarka and looked him over with interest as well. There was also the little palico Tibrim who came over to them and asked to go along. "Since it looks like we all might be going I should introduce myself too," Vinexa said, "I am Vinexa," she said, her right hand coming to rest against her chest before she curtsied and practically purred, "at your service." She knelt down to the floor from her curtsy and reached out a hand towards Tibrim's ears, stopping and looking at him questioningly to see if she could scratch them.
Vinexa spotted a number of familiar faces as she entered the inn. There were even a few new ones, particularly a rather hulking Ronso and a tiny cat person. She also noted how they, and a few others, were gathered around the job board she decided to go look at it too. The mithra approached the board and occasionally brushed against one person or another to steal a little of their essence when she could get away with it. Vinexa managed to get in close enough to look at the board and listen to what the newcomers were saying.
Vinexa walked down the street towards The Rusty Dragon and was feeling pretty good. Back years ago Shayliss was secretly considered to be a bit of a harlot in her efforts to get someone to sleep with her. After her sister's death the young woman had straightened up, much to Vinexa's annoyance, leaving Vinexa to soon take over the title of town strumpet. Even worse Vinexa had been interest in Shayliss for sometime but now the woman was too focused on other things and it was all she could do to get her to even pay attention to her. Fortunately for Vinexa she had succeeded and gotten a kiss from her, that she ate some of the woman's vitality in the process. Vinexa had a problem that made her reputation both deserved and a tragedy of circumstances. Vinexa's soul wasn't quite right, it couldn't replenish itself properly and needed to take from others to keep itself stable. That this caused short lived damage to others was a problem but it would restore itself the next morning and she went to great pains to keep it a secret from the citizens since they would inevitably turn against her and drive her out. Because of hr recent feeding Vinexa was feeling good as she flounced down the street in her short black dress that left lots of leg bear and showed a little of her cleavage in the front. The furry ears on top of her head flicked around as she walked listening to what was going on around her and her nose occasionally wrinkled at one strong smell or another. Her tail, the fur matching her hair starting brown and turning to blonde at the tips, swished behind her in counterpoint to her stride and occasionally raised the hem of her skirt enough to see her cheeks peeking out. When she reached The Rusty Dragon her nose wrinkled again at the smell of the down on her luck mage nearby and Vinexa thought of stopping for a moment. This would be someone no one would miss and she could feed to her heart's content on her but she shook her head and shoved the thought away. That would be wrong and would lead to something very dark. Instead Vinexa tossed Sona a couple of coins and entered the Rusty Dragon.
"Mrrrrrrow, mewpurrrr." *Like it! Ear scritches all around!* *Edit Oh, for those who are interested, I added the picture that served as Vinexa's description inspiration in her profile.
I'm sure it will. He's posted in another game he runs some over the weekend. Probably just working on the epic opening post for an epic game.
I figure most people who have spent more than a couple of weeks in Sandpoint has heard of Vinexa even if they haven't met her directly. She is generally friendly, even if a bit distant, towards most people and is considered by most to be a woman of loose morals if not an outright whore depending on how favorably they view her because most of them do not know why she sleeps around and flirts like she does.
Woot! Thanks for the acceptance.
There, Vinexa's description is now in the profile and she can be considered completed.
My crunch should be all done, finished it up a couple days ago. I have figured out my description and will get it written in tonight/tomorrow.
I am still working on the character description and equipment but other than a minor tweak or two she should be done.
This will be drogeney's submission. I'm revamping something from a previous game attempt. Vinexa is an illusionist (succubus archetype) so she is a 3/4 caster with a shit ton of extra things she can do including light melee.
This coming Wednesday through Sunday my posting will be extremely slow to non-existent as I will be at Gencon in Indy and then two weeks after that for the same days it will be slow again for Origins in Ohio. I may be able to sneak some posts in but I wouldn't count on it.
There, I am now on the map.
Not even sure how to add an icon, I thought the games GM had to do that. Yes, I should be in range of one of them, namely the lower right one diagonal down and to the right of him so he is between me and most of the rest of them.
I know where I am, trying to give an orc a bad touch.
Vinexa danced her way around to the orc furthest from the other orcs, one she could put between her and the rest, and gave him a flirty smile before lunging in to touch him.
K, that's more or less what I thought, though I missed the no normal damage as an unarmed strike before. Now if I can just figure out positioning I'll be in business.
