Walking up to the familiar militia cooks, Vladimir smiles and greets them "Hello, I was wondering if I could get some food for some of the helpers in the infirmary, Old Movummn is sending us out to hunt for healing herbs and other ingrediants that are known for healing properties, it is of course very important that we do this. I would hope that with this meal we will be given the energy to find the ingrediants to make the healing salve, and then it would be you who provided us with the nurishment and energy we needed."
Taya, or you Beth one of you should use this hand thing, I will take the healing potion to have on me.
Vlad gently eakes old Movummn, "I think we have found something" He presents everything to movummn including the gold chain and mummified hand, if others have items Vlade urges them to show Movummn
"Taya, I am sure that we are ment to take these provisions, if it means finding a cure then, everyone will be happy we did" Vlad smiles to Taya as to soothe her uncalm nervs. "I think Old Movommn needs to see this recipe, if it is a cure-all she will know what to do"
"I agree Taya Old Movummn knows her healing herbs, lets go to her! If the worst should happen and we do not return, at least Movummn has the recipe and materials to help Nagy and the others" Vladimir's eye looks to the ground at the thought of not returning.
Vladimir pulls out the scroll of nursing notes Old Movvumn gave him and scans it to see if there is anything to help decipher this poem or tell what these slugs are, He accompanies the group to the sinkhole.
Vladimir looks unsure what to do with the mummified hand, he wraps it up in some cloth and carries it, tempted to put the chain around his neck, he pauses and decides to wait until what Old Movvumn has to say. He then hastily helps the group gather herbs.
Vlad's eye widens with a mix of embarassment and surprise. The golden light shines through his opened hand. He offers the mummified item to its rightful owner--the Tain boy. I think this is valuable, he concentrates on the item to determine if he can get anymore information from Heironious's blessing. After he gleans what ever he can he looks to the group and speaks quietly "I think we should make haste to Old Movvumn's I know she will know what to do. Maybe this recipe can save Nagy". Vladimir looks to Taya with hope in his eyes.
Vladimir's ears perk up when Orik recites the poem. "I've heard that before! Vladimir exclaims. "Old Movvumn has said once or twice before, I think you guys maybe right that it is a recipe, but a magical one. I think we should make haste and get this stuff to Movvum and then maybe Sorda."
"If I could only remeber when exactly she recited it? was it with the rhenne woman, the guard, when. Vladimir looks to the old mummified hand, "May I see that Taya?
To any who want to listen to my muttering
Spoiler: May the lightening of Heroinious sharpen my senses to detect what may be hidden in this object within my grasp
Vladimir stands vidil watching the edge of the forest surrounding the hut and gargen keeping a keen eye out for any signs of the returning "new" owner.
Vladimir looks at the older boy with a mix of admiration and jealousy that comes with being an adolecence. "If we found what we are looking for, its best we keep moving lest we tempt the fates and have that Owlbear return" Vladimir looks at Daethea, "Can I help with carrying anything?. Vladimir supresses the pain he feels from being reminded of his own loss when his fmaily were killed, Vladimir looks at the ruined hut, Stupid Orcs! Vladimir hisses.
Vladimir has kept quiet for the most part, not sure what he would say to the younger Tain anyway, soothing people in moments of pain has never been easy for young Vladimir, having also lost his parents he feels for the boy. He stands outside the cottage keeping vigil incase any orc or owlbear return. He fails to notice the oncoming threat.
I could see some angst coming Vladimir's way. With Taya being 16 I doubt she see's anything in the Boy Vladimir, but that new handsome 19 year old Paladin wanna be....Grrrrrrr
With the D20 rolls what determines a success is it 11 and over? so my roll of 7 is a failure I need to continue, do my other 2 rolls succeed? Sorry I am slow lol.... Just want to get Vlad updated and plan the next training session... is each training session 2 years of time I aged Vladimir from 11 to 13 is this correct?
Vladimir returns to the orphanage trying his best to avoid Mrs. Leeth and any menmber of Jerrid's gang. He fully is anticipating the beating of his life time. he enters Master Leeth's chamber to do some paper work he notices a black book an the table with a red fist on it holding six arrow. Vladimir picks it up and starts to read. He is inspired by a certain character in the book, a shining figure with a lightning bolt emblazoned into his armour, he is cast in this book dedicated to Hextor as a rebal and a trouble maker, Vladimir's new role model is an individual named Heronius.
Stat rolls.
training rolls.
"Well Taya, lets just hope niether one of us has to do that again!"
"Old Movuumn will believe me. Taya I am not sure what happened, I was just real mad, I cannot stand that Jerrid he is such a bully. Old Gunner is a trustworthy man as well. I agree I do not think we need ropes, the spirit seems to have been doused from these boys. I am scared if Mrs. Leeth sees us my hide is gonna be tanned something fierce. Taya, Nagy your mother will believe us won't she?" Vladimir speacks softly to Taya.
Spoiler: "when it happened did you feel it Taya, a rush of energy through your body, like you have ran for days and were struck by lightning, It felt funny, but I enjoyed the rush."
"Taya, I can help you get to Old Movuumn's maybe little Asfer would like to come we can get her neck looked at. Should we drag Jerrid's butt along or leave him with the other animal's in the barn" Vladimir's heart races as he asks Taya if he can accompany her along to Old Movuumn's its a very distracting feeling.
Vladimir shakes his fist OUCH! blowing on his sore knuckles he looks a bit embarassed and proud at the same time.
Vladimir closes the distance to Jerrid and attampts to punch Jerrid square in the nose.
I may not bee around when my initiative comes up, but I am gonna go for gold!!! Vladimir feels a growing anger rise in his body he feels a rush of blood to his head and with all of his being yells a command at Jerrid
"Jerrid let the girl go, if you touch her with that dagger this dog is gonna eat you, and the rest of us will make you pay five fold!" Vladimir's face darkens as he takes his move action walking towards Jerrid with the hound "It seems to me you have only one option, drop the dagger and run for safety you do this now and you may have a chance to escape, look around all your boys are defeated". Vladimir raises his voice and glares at Jerrid "I am gonna count to six if you are still here I am letting go of this dog...one....two...three...."
initiative in the barn
Vladimir gets into position to where he can see the ribbon when waved. He gently pets the dog and hopes that when the time is right the canine's natural protective instincts will take over. Vladimir moves close to the double doors as possible with still seeing the signal and waits to cause a distraction hoping the dog will scare off some of the boys and the other boys will chase him. If it works hopefully the remaining children can rescue the hostage.
Taya, do you want a distraction?
Vladimir suggests that maybe he can come in with the dog from the front door to cause a distraction he can run away and hope the boys chase him while Taya and Naga and the rest of the group can save the girl when they see from the hay loft when Jerrid and the gang chace Vlad away.
Vladimir keeps a hold of the dogs collar and unties the leash, hoping he can keep a hold of the dog. He pets the beast behind its ears and coos "Come on boy we need your help, please do not let us down" Walking with the dog with the rest of the group towards the barn, Vladimir heads off towards the main entrance.
"Oh my!, guys I think I heard someone being roughed up!" Vlad's face goes a crimson hue with anger at the thought of bullies hurting someone. "I do not care, what they do to me I am not standing by to let this happen" Vlad walks up to the dog and pets him and begins to undo his leash; relying that the dog will intimidate the intruders. Keeping a firm grip on the dogs collar at all times.
Vladimir looks a bit nervous as the dog comes into view"Maybe we can get this dog to help, I have some coin from before what if we buy it some food and make it friendly we can untie it and send it in to chase Jerrid and his gang out? It might be safer than running in against him with his dagger?" Vladimir whispers to the group "Has anybody played with this dog before?"
Vladimir follows Taya and Nagy to help Korgoth against the dastardly Jerrid.
Vladmir picks up a thick branch and slaps it into his other hand, "We can use these" Vladimir is a bit scared but tries to look tough
"Ouch, that hurts, my ear, I did nothing, Taya told you what happened I promise, The boy fainted, get some water and we'll rouse him, We were going to Old Movummn's to get help" Vladimir fights the urge to kick the lady Leeth in the shins. Somewhat embarrassed but the treatment he is receiving in front of his friends he tries to hide the pain he is in, his face goes red with a mix of anger and embarassment.
Vladimir smiles at the group and nods in agreement with Taya, "Plus Korgoth, I sill owe you for the rock, I hate Jerrid, count me in. I am good friend's with Old Movvumn I know the way and she will believe us if I tell her what's going on, we need to stick together to stand up to Jerrid and his bullying ways". Vladimir seems excited to be part of a plan to strike at big old Jerrid
Vladimir approaches the Risper's "hello Nagy, hello Taya, what's going on?. Vladimir feels a rush of excitment at seeing Taya.
Vladimir is gald to enjoy some free time he heads to the market to see if their is any entertainment going on and to browse the various wares that are offered, who knows maybe he will find something to buy.
"Yes Movummn I would like to come back if you can arrage it. I would appreciate it. If you do not mind and my work is done, I shall leave to check out the Market. How long is that lady going to be here I would like to meet her properly" Vlad points to the resting rhenne woman
Vladmir is a bit embarassed, and a bit shamed at his inability to fix the man, he quickly becomes distracted and walks over to the Rhenne woman and wonders in amazement at how much better she is doing, he reaches out a hand as if to touch her, but pulls it back realising she needs her rest. Vladimir continues his chores.
"Oops sorry sir let me get that out" Vladimir loosens the bandage and attempts to remove the rest of the splinter "Sorry sir, Old Movvumn will be able to take a look at this very soon" Vladimir states sheepisishly
Vladimir looks at the soldier's wound and tries to remeber the teachings of old Movvumn, seeing an actual wound like this frightens Vladimir a bit, he recalls the teaching but struggles with its application when he sees a living breathing patient in pain. Taking a deep breath he attempts to put his nerves aside and apply the techings of Old Movvumn. "Ok sir if I can get you to sit down I can help with that splinter" Vladimir stammers trying to hide his apprehension. As he starts to make a ring with one of the bandages, his hands tremble with nerves, taking a deep breath and saying a silent prayer he does his best to clam down.
At the training Vladimir plops to the ground looking up at Nagy, "Sorry for the teasing, I had no idea this was gonna be so hard, I think you did very well near the end, maybe we can work together to improve, maybe on some of our off days we can practice at the Ranch after supper You really can throw hard and would like to learn how you do it". Vladimir blows his hair away from his good eye and reaches a hand up to Nagy hoping he will help him up. "After all like Old Domar says we are in this together, I one of fails we both fail." In the Infirmary "Hello good sir, their is an emergency going on in the infirmary, I see you have attempted to bandage that yourself, but there are some flaws in your technique, probably because you only had one hand to wrap it up" Vladimir smiles at the man trying to calm him and putting confidence into his ability. Pulling 5 bandages from his work bag, he states, "Let me help, first you have a splinter coming out of your hand we need to stabalise that" twisting one of the bandages into a ring Vladimir makes what resembles a donut, "If you will let me I can help that greatly" Vladimir gestures for the man to sit on a bench near the door and takes the man's injured hand, applying the donut splint with the splinter protruding through the middle hole , Vladimir next fasens each side of the donut firmly by tieing another bandage around each half. This has the effect of applying pressure to all portions of the wound, while leaving the puncture free from pressure, normally the wound would stop bleeding. Vladimir removes one more larger bandage and folds it into a triangle, with this he makes a sling and places the man's arm against his chest with his hand near his collarbone, this helps to stop the bleeding by using gravity. Finally, one more bandage is tied around the sling at the elbow, and around the man's waist, this immobilises the whole arm. Vladimir looks at his work smiles and states, "If you want to wait for Old Movvum, she will only be a few more moments, here have some water. Vladimir offers the man a cool glass of water. "As for your horse there is a girl at the Risper horse ranch who is a phenomenal trainer, I bet she can help, her name is Taya"
The Infirmary Vladimir exits as he is told and shuts the door behind him...well almost shuts the door. Curiosity gets to Vladimir as he peeks inside to watch the healing skills of old Movamm. Quickly he comes to his senses and shuts the door, He looks back to the path infront of the door guarding it as best he can, he gets on his tippy toes and fills his lungs with air as to look bigger than he actually is, soon his face turns purple, and he exhales, he doubts his tactic had the desired effect. The Militia Training
At the Hospital. Vladimir does not quit, there is work to be done, recognizing symptoms of blood loss, Vladimir asks the old woman who is being watched by many men to lay dow, he rolls up a blanket and puts it under her ankles to promote blood back to her heart. Taking another blanket he covers her hoping to keep her warm. He grabs a concoction that Movamm keeps that is elixer of a lambs liver, it is high in what she calls Iron and it is good to promote the blood flow. Vladimir is concerned about this woman, and asks the men to report if this woman needs to pee or go to the bathroom. He checks her arm for pulses and to feel if the skin is clammy. If there is no pee within 4 hours Vladimir tells old Movamm, the worry being if she is taking in fluids, but not putting them out, then these fluids may be dumping into a body cavity...what Old Movumm calls "Third Spacing"
At weapon's Training "Nice throw Nagy" Vladimir teases, "I have seen your sister do better. Vladimir playfully jokes. Picking up another Javelin Vladimir asserts "let me try", taking three steps he hurls the implament atthe straw target.
The flowers drop to the floor as Vladimir is standing with mouth open at the scene of carnage that is the common hospital room. Quickly instinct takes over and his hesitation wanes. Vladimir scrambles from bedside to bedside emptying bedpans, and cleaning instruments. He makes sure to wash his hands between each patient. Vladimir cleans fluid soaked rags and provides fresh linens to whom ever needs them. Instinct takes over and Vladimir does the best he can. He draws upon the memory of his time in the bed, and draws upon the limited teachings of Old Movomm. "Cleanliness is the most important facet to a man's health, something in the dirt delays healing and causes men to go into fever". Vladimir recites as he tries to keep the hospital as clean as possible.
Orick Faust, Maybe we can work together at some point to aid one another, maybe with the heal skill... I am not training it yet, but I plan to... We could meet at Old Movvams or another place...
To Korgoth Darkhand and FW
Spoiler:
One evening after missing the wagon back to the orphanage Vladimir was heading back into Tricaster proper when he heard the familiar droning voice of Jeridd Kinslorn, just a few words out of the large boy's mouth were enough to make Vladimir's skin crawl. Reflexively, Vladimir's hand went to his left eye as he remembered the burning pain that was caused by a late swing during a sparring match. "Hey freak, looks like you aint got no friends here to hide behind today" Hissed Kislorn. Vladimir cringed and turned around only to have his nose crushed by the meaty fist of the bully Jeridd Kinslorn. Water flooded his vision and a stinging sensation shot from the tip of Vladimir's nose to both eyes. Picking himself up off the ground Vladimir gave a silent curse to the larger boy, who by now was was walking off towards the public stockades laughing to himself at the damage he had caused to poor Vladimir. Fate seemed to shine on young Vladimir that day for behind a building flying through the air was a large fist sized rock that struck Kinslorn square in the temple, this had the effect of dropping the big oaf to the ground. Vladimir could not hold it back, a huge grin spread ear to ear and he let out a mighty chuckle. Running off from behind the building was another boy, It was Korgoth Darkhand, "Thanks" Vladimir yelled off to the Darkhand youth. Korgoth turned with a smile and said, "Trust me the pleasure was all mine" and with a wink the young Darkhand ran off into the woods. It was at that moment that Vladimir realised all the stories about Korgoth were rubbish, It was at that moment Vladimir realised that he indeed liked the young boy very much.... Ok for the INT roll The handwritten cursive of the correspondences written to Master Leeth often are hard to read, even more, the descriptive explanations of the affairs of buisness, and how to dos from many individuals addressed in the great cities of Vebebonc and Greyhawk all but cause young Vladimir to want to fall asleep. Wrestling with his concentration, Vladimir keeps awake...although barely.
