Isaac takes the heavy blows! He frowns and is about to continue the assault when he sees something out of the corner of his eye. From the depths, he sees... a giant demonic pelican! It glowers at him as it begins to tower over all.
Artyom frowns. "I don't hear or... smell anything."
Ricky tilts his head. "No. They're right. There's something beyond the southern door."
Alara blinks. "Wait. What do you mean, the book's way of adding spells? I thought wizards were supposed to do that themselves." Artyom blinks and scratches his chin. "Hmmm.... That is right." He turns to Ricky. "Should we tell them?" Ricky tilts his head. "I don't know. Should we?" Artyom frowns. "I think we have no choice." He turns to the others. "You're right, Alara. I do write in my spells to my book. However, this book is not an ordinary spellbook. It represents a pact that I have forged. For all my life, I wanted to be a crusader knight. To defend Lastwall from all evil and to further Society. However, I was never gifted enough physically. Then I came across this spellbook in my sister's bookstore. When I picked it up, I felt... something. A connection to some... Patron. A Patron of Mercy. It offered me the power to protect everyone. It could help teach me magic. However, it would come at some form of price. After weighing my options, I agreed. I don't know who or what my Patron is. But I consider it a worthy sacrifice. So, every once in a while, my Patron will add a spell to my book from its sphere of influence."
Artyom is in shock at the revelation that everyone in Roslar's Coffer is dead. His books fall from his hands, the spellbook pulling the lariat it's attached to. His quarterstaff clatters on the ground. "No... No... Vibia..." He falls to the ground on his knees. His thoughts are reeling, the fact that the town's gone while he was watching over it. Tears begin falling down his face. "This can't be! How can this happen?! I should've have done more! Send out my report sooner! Try to bolster the defenses before the Festival! Something! I can't have failed! Vibia's dead and it's all my fault!" Ricky flutters into the crook of his neck and nuzzles his cheek in an attempt to comfort him, tears falling down his own eyes.
Isaac once again swings his cutlass at the skum!
Isaac manages to deeply wound the monster, but he's not finished. With a flourish, the Captain opens up the monster and cuts out innards, spraying guts and blood in a horrifying display.
"Hmm... Now this is interesting. I can make something out on this faded carving. There's an eye here that's connected to Aranzi, the Herald of Aroden and an important figure during the Shining Crusade. Also, Sir Priest, on the carving that looks like you, there's a symbol of Sarenrae on the shield." Artyom makes a note of this in the journal. "By the by, do any of you remember what happened to us? Anything that could explain how we got into this? The last memory I have is attending the Festival with my sister." Journal Page 1:
Arrived at Roslar's Coffer. Defenses and the reconstruction seem to be sound from cursory glances. Will need to examine further to be sure.
Arrived at Lucky Cup. Construction and architecture is sound. Could be improved and made better. Vibia refusing help with this. Remember to put this into plan. North walls seem sound. Noticed that foundation is soft under them. Possible risk in future? Western walls seem to have some weakness and damage. Need to get these walls repaired and fortified as soon as possible. Southern walls and Eastern walls have little damage. Mostly from animals scratching walls and underneath. Will fix this and discuss fortification. Buildings seem to be mostly fine. Some seem to be beginning to run down. Shouldn't be a problem to fix. Vibia's been talking about a festival happening in town. Wants me to come along and have fun. I believe that I need to continue my work before something terrible happens. Journal Page 2: Woke up in a sarcophagus. No memory about how I got here. There are four other people here as well within other sarcophagi. Crate with supplies here as well. Vibia doesn't seem to be around. Need to find her as soon as possible!
From the architecture, it appears to be a crypt. Various carvings on north wall, heroic in nature. Halfling on wolf, elf crouching in shadows, human with great sword beneath a tree, an older cleric, and a man with a raven casting magic. They seem to resemble myself and the others. However, these are not us. Above carvings: "Red Shrikes - Noble Companions in the War Against Evil, Rest Well, my Friends." Red Shrikes have connection to Roslar and the Shining Crusade. Need to research. Possible death? Joke? Equipment on carvings are what was being used during Shining Crusade (900 years ago). A sixth sarcophagus is in room. Empty. Carving above is too worn and faded (ours seem to be newer. Look into?). Can make out religious eye symbol. Relates to Arazni, Herald of Aroden and central figure during Shining Crusade. Symbol of Sarenrae on shield of priest carving. Possible patron god? If so, is this connected? Or mere coincidence?
Isaac swings at Pierce as he flees. He then looks up at the chandelier and decides to make his move. Stepping onto the table, he then jumps up to the chandelier.
Grabbing the chandelier with his free hand, he swings forward to get in front of Pierce.
With grace and a fluidity hardly seen, Isaac flips in the air and lands in front of Pierce, his hat landing back on his head, cutlass pointing at the other Captain. "An' wher' do ye think ye be goin'? We still hav' our figh'."
Question before I make my move: would I be able to grab the chandelier from the table that Pierce was standing on? And if I were to make my Acrobatics roll, how far could I go in a swing?
Isaac growls as he takes the damage. However, when Edward liberates Pierce's sword, the new Free Captain gains a smirk. "Ye wer' sayin'?" He slashes at Pierce again!
Thank you for the heads-up, Teo! Hope your assignment goes well!
She just laughs. "Darn, I guess I wouldn't have gotten you to put a coin in my cup were I busking." Korriban's smirk widens. "You don't know that. A multitude of things could have happened if we met earlier."
She raises her eyebrow, answering his ever-present smirk with one of her own. "And if you're ever finishing a sentence with, 'I'm just saying,' you're damned well arguing, while making yourself sound even more like an 'uffing bounce in the process. Good gods, you sound like Riceak." Korriban's brow raises. "Point taken. And lesson learned." She pushes the coin into his hand. "And you've won the argument." She adds, back to using her spell."So when we hear someone coming to the door, I will make you invisible, because even you can't hide in plain sight with your sodding boots, and you dash out and hope because you talked to the guard beforehand like a ninny, you aren't expected to be in here." Korriban nods. "Got it. Ready when you are."
Norv:
Korriban smiles at his mother and gives her a big hug. "Thanks, mom. Wish me luck."
Korriban nods at Verik's advice. "Thank you. This would be good advice to have." When he reveals that Meliya Arkona gave him the silver knife, Korriban's shocked. "No... I got rid of that thing. But, the strange thing was... it kept up showing up. No matter what I did, no matter where I put it. I'd always find it. I thought it was cursed so I got it looked at by the church of Pharasma. They found out it was actually a Raktavarna in disguise. It's some sort of demon... thing that spies on other people. And if you got it from Meliya... then that means she could have been spying on us. Or all of the Arkonas have been spying on us!" The Party at the Rosa before leaving:
Korriban runs up to the rest of his friends. "Guys! I just found something out! You remember that silver dagger?! The one that turned out to be some snake demon thing called a Raktavarna spying on us for some master?! I found out who that master could have been! Verik got that dagger from Meliya Arkona! That means that either Meliya or al of the Arkonas have been spying on us!"
Hearing Lantresaa making a slight dig at him, 'Louis' decides to act slightly dimwitted. He follows the group inside and lets Lantressa do the talking.
Happy belated New Year to everyone!
It's no problem, Teodor. It does give me some more locations to attack him from and opens up the space so that we can properly surround him.
So, how would flanking work now that I can fly?
Mutt is in shock as he sees the Starfall in the Armageddon Echo. He closes his eyes before they vanish and exit. He seems relieved when they are out of the Armageddon Echo. During the trip back, Mutt is awfully quiet and shrugs off any conversation. During the week, Mutt decides to swap out some of his own gear and take some of the loot that they have. During the celebrations, Mutt just nods, makes little small talk, and gives small smiles. However, it is very clear that something is gnawing at his mind. At some point, Mutt can't really stand just standing around, waiting for something to happen. He grabs his gear and leaves the base, heading out to a clearing in the woods with a small lake. Placing his gear on the ground, he grabs his greataxe and turns to a tree. He begins to swing at the tree, leaving deep gashes in the bark. As he swings, he reflects on the events of not just the last few months, but the last couple of years. The images play in his mind, as if he was reliving them. The death of his Shoanti friend by . Killing his master, his gang, and burning down his home. Arriving to Riddleport and joining the group at the Gold Goblin. Nearly dying several times. Discovering the drow and fighting them at every step. And... the Starfall. At the last image, Mutt yells and gives a mighty swing, felling the tree. He pants before giving a loud scream of frustration and anger. "Why?! Why did you keep letting me live?! Why did you let me kill you?! Was it for this?! WHY WON'T YOU ANSWER ME?!" He pants before moving to sit on the felled tree, placing his greataxe against the log. He looks at the lake, wiping the tears that begun to fall. He whispers, "Why did you let me kill you? Was it to bring me here? To make me see the Starfall and stop it? Why?" He sits, looking at the lake and contemplating it.
Mutt stops his rage and looks around, panting. He looks at Keanu and nods in respect. "Nice job. You really did a lot of damage on them."
Mutt turns around to see everyone somewhat glaring at him for blocking the way. He decides to step back and let them in first.
Mutt screams as the dragon is brought down. He stops the rage and breathes in the healing magic. ”They do sting a bit. But it’s nothing I can’t handle. But, thank you.” When Lusk compliments him, Mutt gives a grin. ”Thanks. You did a good job as well. you took that thing’s head off!” When Thaddeus screams and redirects the swarm, Mutt nods. When Lusk picks up the head, Mutt’s brow raises. ”Are you sure you want to carry that? Will it be too heavy for you?” He then places a hand on the dragon’s body. ”If Lusk gets the head, I want this.” When Variel threatens whoever is in the next room, Mutt growls threateningly.
Korriban, continuing standing in his Crane Style, attacks to try and knock out the purple clad thug sprawled on the ground.
While the rules of Blood Pig are being explained, Korriban realizes that he's going to be slowed down by the things his carrying. He takes the time to slip some of more utility items into the newly acquired bag of holding. When the game starts and Devargo intimidates him, the young swordsman shakes a bit, but steels himself. He looks at the mob forming around the ball, at Devargo, and at Lantressa. He then moves like a whip towards the mob, switching into his Crane Style . He then punches the purple clad thug in a nonlethal manner.
Korriban frowns at the Emperor’s response and his goons laughing. He sees the look Teodor gives him and nods, deciding to drop the subject... for now. “D’you suppose ‘in our service’ means they’re lovers?” Laori mutters, quietly enough to avoid the ears of the Emperor and his goons. Korriban smirks. He whispers (quiet enough so the enemies can’t hear), ”Not sure. Maybe the Emperor is having Scream paint for him.”
Korriban looks at the scrap of cloth again. After a few seconds, it finally clicks. ”Guys! I finally recognize this cloth! It’s part of the sleeve from Seneschal Neolandus Kalepopolis’s jacket! That means that he was here!”
Korriban blinks and is taken aback as Callie chews him out, his smile quickly leaving. He frowns and becomes serious and apologetic. "Sorry. I was just trying to lighten the mood with a joke."
I love how everyone's reaction to Korriban's flirting with Laori is, "Korriban, no."
Isaac scratches his weird manta ray chin with his weird manta ray hand. "Hmm... It be makin' sens'. They do need a way pas' th' jellies. So, ge' ready. We're seein' wha' will happ'n when we blow th' horn."
Isaac the Captain of the Manta Rays frowns at the sight of this and the grazing hit of the crossbow bolt. He swings his cutlass in a fanciful display, the light from the sun above the surface glinting against the blade. He hopes to try and put cowardice into them.
I have to assume that Karthak is looking for one.
I have my post up. Now, I need to work on my reclassing and stat block.
Questions for Jolistina:
When Korriban is able to see Jolistina, he says, ”Hello, Joli. How have you been? I’m here about Rolth. You see, we came across him and fought him. He teleported out of there. I’m here to ask if you know where he could possibly be.”
The old woman chuckles throatily. “I do indeed like roses, lad. You're right. You may call me Ilinica; best do so, I suppose, since that's my name. You say you wanted to be like Blackjack, but now times are changing...and the city needs more than just a hero. It needs the spirit to fight back against the Queen's depredations.” She glances around. “Best not speak on the street, child. Come. Follow me, if you'd know more about my roses and that spirit.” Korriban looks at Ilinica oddly as she leaves. Shrugging, he follows her. In the small yard that Ilinica leads you to, you find a more varied garden, though still one that focuses on roses. Ilinica turns to you and says, "Now, to speak more frankly. I share many of your feelings, Korriban, but they are dangerous to share aloud on the street. There is a way of knowing, and speaking, and doing these things--a way of living in the world that fosters the spirit of rebellion. I speak of Milani, the Everbloom. A young goddess, to be sure, but one of the most important in these times. If you are willing, I would be happy to teach you about Milani's doctrine, educate you in the ways of rebellion, and take you under my wing. What say you?” Korriban looks around the yard. When Ilinica asks if he is interested in learning the ways of Milani, Korriban thinks about it. He says, ”I’ll do it. But, I have a question. If I take this path, could I still worship Calistria and Shelyn? Or do I solely need to worship Milani?” During the training process, Korriban has a multitude of questions. ”Wait, so doing it this way will let me be a better rogue?” ”So, I don’t need to read a lot. I can just be a fighter and keep my hand free and I will get a better effect?” ”So, this deific obedience thing? I need to do this every day? I don’t have any rose gardens of my own. So I need to train with people, right?” ”So, this Swordplay style will go well with my grandpa’s fighting style?” ”Wait. So I can just command people to do what I want once a day?!” ”This is going to cost me how much?!” But, despite every question, Korriban manages to persevere and finds a balance between his own style, Vencarlo’s teachings, and Ilinica’s teachings. He stand before his new teacher at the end. ”Thank you, Ilinica. I really appreciate this.” Finally, Korriban takes the silver dagger that has plagued him for weeks to the temple of Pharasma in the Gray for examination. The priests are still very busy, both burying the dead and healing the living, but a few make time to see you. An older man named Father Eugeni takes the dagger and examines it for several seconds, muttering prayers of divination under his breath. Korriban is nervous as Father Eugeni pours over the dagger. He’s nervous as to what he will find or what he has stumbled into. "This...this is an evil thing, my boy," he mutters darkly. "I do not know exactly what its nature is, but I can tell that, at least. I wonder if it...just perhaps...stand back." So saying, he places the dagger on the floor, backs up, and speaks a sharp word of command. Korriban sweats as he finds out that the dagger is evil. He watches intensely as Eugeni prepares to reveal the evil of the dagger. The dagger suddenly writhes, shifting, as it transforms...into a hideous, red-eyed serpent! Father Eugeni and several of the priests nearby yell, and move away, as the serpent whirls, hissing, and eyeing all of them and you, clearly searching for prey. When the dagger turns into a snake, Korriban moves back a little, screaming his head off. ”AH! AH! AH! WHAT THE F**K?! WHAT THE F**K IS THAT?! WHAT THE F%~# IS THAT?!” Suddenly, it goes rigid, lets out a shriek, and is consumed in smoke and flame! The whole thing is over in seconds, and all that remains is a scorch mark on the floor. But you feel as though you can still see the serpent's red eye, glaring at you as it was consumed… Korriban is scared as the serpent glares at him. When it’s gone, he’s just left muttering, ”What the f**k… what the f**k…” Father Eugeni approaches you solemnly. "You've been watched, lad. Having seen its true form, I know the fiend: a creature called a raktavarna. It is the least of a type of fiend known as a rakshasa, spirits of evil that seek dominion and lordship over mortalkind. These raktavarnas can shape themselves to appear as objects, and so spy on those that their masters command." He claps you on the shoulder. [b]"It seems to be truly gone; but whatever was watching you and your friends, it knows that it's been found out now.” Korriban says, ”W-What? What?! You mean, that for months, there’s been some evil spirits watching me?! Watching us?! Learning about us?! Who would do that?! Why would they do that?! Where would they be?!” Korriban spends the rest of his free time this week on dates with Lily, who's a charming young alchemist. Korriban enjoys his time with Lily, glad to see that she’s interested in him. He also helps Imperia and Celia prepare for their transfer into the Academae. The young nobleman who's services you've pressed has a contact on the inside who knows a way around the wards, and when all is ready, he sends a message to the wizard. The man appears in a puff of acrid smoke in the living room of the nobleman, Amin Jalento, and whisks Celia off with barely a dozen words, saying tersely to Amin that he's taken enough risks breaking the abjurations already. Imperia is tearful to be saying goodbye to her sister, but she sighs with relief when it's done. "At last, I can relax and move on with my life. The Academae has its own dangers...but I know that they're the kind that Celia will be able to overcome. And she'll be safe from all else in there!” Korriban smiles at Amin Jalento. ”Hey, Amin. It’s been a while. Haven’t seen you since those riots were going on.” When Imperia shows relief at all of this, Korriban smiles. ”It’s no problem, Imperia. It’s the least I could do for a friend.” Finally, on the 7th of Lamashan, all four of you receive a summons to Citadel Volshyenek, signed by Cressida Kroft. When you arrive, you find the Guard--shockingly depleted, but nonetheless--turned out into an honor parade. The occasion quickly becomes clear when a beaming Kroft invites you up onto a platform that she's erected at the north end of the courtyard. As Korriban approaches the Citadel, it becomes clear that he has made a change to his appearance. He is wearing his mithral armor, magic boots, and regular clothes. He wears both his rapiers on his left hip. His daggers are in their usual places. He still wears the gold necklace with a ruby pendant, the two rings on his hands, and the wo earrings in each of his ears. When you look at his hands, he seems to have gotten two new tattoos. On the back of his hands are tattoos of a very stylized rose. However, there are two things that definitely stick out. His trademark trench coat is gone, most likely in the backpack he has. In its place, he wears the rose emblazoned black cloak he got from the party. The other baffling thing is that his hair… has been cut. And not to a shorter ponytail. The ponytail is gone, replaced with shoulder length black hair. It does look uneven in some areas. His yellow and black bandana is still tied around his head. He looks at his friends. ”Well, well. You guys got the special summon surprise too, huh?” He enters the courtyard, shocked to see the honor guard. ”So, is there some kind of party or what?” He moves onto the platform and waits for Kroft to start. “You all know a little bit about my...teams of special contractors," she calls out to the assembled Guards. "I know that not all of you approve of such measures, and I know as well that they're quite necessary. But I also know that you're all aware of how much these four--Teodor Niculescu, Lantressa Darksong, Callie Cobalt, and Korriban Balros--have done to combat the plague. Now that blood veil is at last removed from our streets, the time has come to thank those who did the most to combat it. Three of these were among the first to raise the alarm about blood veil, and all had a direct hand in stopping it. It's with great pleasure, therefore, that I deputize all four of them as Special Agents of the Korvosan Guard--giving them all the rights and privileges that attend the office. Now, Guards--salute!" There is a ringing crash as all of the guards present slam their spear hafts into the surface of their shields. As Kroft gives her speech, Korriban smiles as he feels pride in his actions and his new position. When the guards slam their spears on their shields, his face turns slightly red. Later, in private, a smiling Kroft escorts you to a large vault. "Sorry for surprising you with the display--but you've earned it, and it has to be witnessed by the Guards for it to be official. Now, let me help make sure that you can do your jobs properly, Special Agents..." With a nod at the Lieutenants guarding the door, she swings open the vault and leads you inside. Spreading her arms wide, she says, "Go ahead--grab something that strikes your fancy. Most of these aren't regulation, seized as contraband or tax or the like, and it's better they get use in your hands than continue to rust in mine!” When Kroft reveals the armory, Korriban’s jaw drops. He then busts into a huge grin and jumps up and down in excitement. He then runs into the room like a kid in a toy store. He looks at all of the stuff there with interest. After some time, he manages to find some things. He finds a cool looking scabbard that he finds can help improve his weapons. He also finds a feather token and some caltrop beads.
During his looking around, Korriban sees some more mundane items. He asks Kroft. ”Hey, boss! I noticed that you have some more mundane things. Can I buy some of that stuff from you?”
fter Callie hears from Derrick, she reports back to Korriban and the others that the smugglers can get them into Old Korvosa in another fortnight. "I know that feels like forever, but that's as soon as it can happen. Your folks I'm sure are as tough as you, so I know they'll hang on." Korriban growls in frustration. "I know, I know. It's just driving me mad, you know? All this tension." After Kroft promotes them Callie pulls the others aside and says, "This is an honor, but it puts targets on our heads too--not that we didn't have them before. I know we can handle it, but pay attention to whomever you speak to, to who might be watching. I'm sure the Queen or one of her higher-ups know we know about her. And we have no idea WHY she's doing all of this. I doubt obeisance to Urgathoa is motive alone." Korriban sighs. "So much for boasting. But, you have a point. This is starting to become a war with the Queen. We need to be careful and keep our hands hidden. And I have a feeling that we may need more allies in this fight at some point." She looks at them. "How are you all holding up? We've seen some terrifically awful things. I haven't been sleeping well some nights. And we may have a break, but I seriously don't think this is over yet." Korriban frowns. "I've been doing well, I guess. I've been having trouble sleeping as well. Not just because of the Urgathoans or the Queen's tightening grip. But also because I'm worried about my family. But, I have been trying to keep busy." He rubs the new rose tattoos on his hands.
I think I can help answer those questions, Jokum. 1) We are currently on our way on a path to the fort of Drezen.
Korriban continues to pierce the undead abomination in front of him!
He manages to land two decisive blows!
Teodor! That was awesome! You totally rule!!
That fits so well in this situation. EDIT: I would like to make some suggestions as well.
Korriban is shocked at the bats going out to a fireball. When all is silent, Korriban steps carefully to Lantressa as he watches the spot where they were. "Lantressa... that was... d**n... That was amazing. I... I think you may have killed him. Heh... again, remind me again to never get on your bad side." He thinks for a few moments before chuckling. Turning to Lantressa, he says, "Those beams of fire and that fireball are just like you... they're hot." The rogue gives a few chuckles before going silent. When Callie calls out, Korriban shouts back. "The bats just got vaporized by a fireball... I think. I'm not seeing anything left. I think Lantressa killed him. I'm hoping that, anyways." When he walks back into the room and sees Teodor on the floor sobbing, Korriban rushes to him. "Teodor? Teo? Are you okay? Look, whatever that vampire did to you, it's over. He's gone. Look, you're here. With your friends. Whatever you're going through, we're here for you."
I think I've just become the team parent... or the team nurse.
Seeing the demon fall, Voren immediately runs for Jokum. "Jokum! Jokum! Hang on!" He kneels down as he moves, sliding to Jokum's side. He places his hands on Jokum and begins to heal him. For one of the spells, he also puts some of his mythic power into it.
He breathes calmly as he sees Jokum's wounds close quickly. He says, "He'll be fine. He's going to be fine."
Welcome back!
Isaac shakes his head. "It be not upsettin' me stomach. It jus' be... shockin', is all." He taps Isaac on the shoulder, as he pauses walking towards the door. "Riddleport's full of people, but people are often acquaintances at best. It's either her death or the risk of the death of friends. My choice wasn't a difficult one. I'm off for some fresh air, see you outside." Isaac sighs. "I was abou' to pass judg'men'. Bu' thank ye for doin' it." Isaac smirks at seeing Jania and Edward get along. Diana only nods at the group, glad the deed was done. She retrieves the sorcerer's strange false teeth. These might come in handy at the right time if we go to see her 'benefactor'. she says. Isaac nods at Diana's suggestion. She is more saddened that the sea snake had to be killed than the sorcerer and returns it to the sea. Unsure if she is worthy of burial at sea, but what else are we gonna do with the body? We could tie it to the rocks and give her to the crabs. Isaac frowns. "Let us be sendin' 'er to th' sea. Fer Besmara an' out o' prop'r respect." During his downtime, Isaac will visit his crew, making sure they are okay after the assault. He will also converse/flirt with Rosie and checking on Mardus.
Korriban listens to Callie as she shares her thoughts and feelings. He says, "Hey. Listen. Truth be told, I'm scared as all hell too. It's not just that I'm scared of zombies, skeletons, and vampires. Though, that doesn't make things any better. I'm scare of this stuff too. Urgathoa, the blood veil, the f****d up art. This is all scary to me. I'm not a mage nor am I of a more holy path. So this is all scary because I don't understand. I get some things about religion. But I'm more used to brothels and vengeance. Not this stuff." His face also softens. "All of this s**t going on in the city, it's terrifying. People are going nuts. People are dying. The Queen has released a plague with the aid of some cultists that she hired as doctors. If feels like Korvosa is reaching a boiling point. And we may be the only ones who can help." His face becomes more serious. "However, if that's the case, then we better make one hell of a difference. These a******s are doing this. And we will stop them. I don't want to think about what will happen if we fail. If I fall, then I'm taking as many of them with me as possible." His grip on his rapier tightens and his hand shakes. "I just wish I could do more."
She follows straight up to the caves letting Jokum lead the way as she looks to Voren. Despite her injuries she was in high spirits. "I see you have survived as well. I have acolytes ale if you need it." She gives him a smile as she looks for the cave entrance. Voren smiles at Danua. "Yes. I survived due to some fast thinking on my part. Conjuring up a sleet storm followed by summoning some celestial spiders to find the enemies via their tremorsense." Voren's brow raises in confusion at the term 'acolytes ale'. After a moment of thought, he then realizes what Danua means. "Oh! Sorry. I just was confused for a moment. No, I don't need any acolyte's ale. Thank you for the offer, though." He smiles at Danua. He then looks at her. "But, you may need healing." He holds up his hand, pulsing with white colored magic. "If you need it, that is."
Voren looks at Arthas. "Arthas. I can stay here if needed. However, if things are going to be alright without my presence, then I can aid all of you with retrieving Karthak. I've already administered healing to the crusaders that I was guarding. But, I understand that there are more people to heal. Overall, it's your call."
Korriban is in shock as Riceak goes down. He grimaces. He needs to take this guy out. He lashes out at the blue wearing cultist.
The cultist falls before him!
I'm thinking about a seducer witch with a backstory as a courtesan who becomes a spymaster. Just having trouble with a few things about him. Like whether to pick the enchantment patron or trickery patron. I also want to multiclass into the Enchanting Courtesan prestige class.
Isaac sees the giant beast fly from the Rahadoumi ship and his jaw drops. "Besmara's t***s! Wha' th' f**k is tha'?!" As Jania gets pumped about fighting it, Isaac quickly spins the wheel. "Ye can figh' it iffen it lands on th' ship! Bu' I'd rath'r not hav' tha' happen! Fire at th' thing!"
Sorry for the delay. I will get a post in tomorrow.
Oh, it's no problem. I just thought that Voren'd had not gotten a good grip or (the funny option) that instead of climbing down, like a rational person, Voren decides to fall in there.
That failed Climb check was for going down into the riverbed. So, Danua just saved Voren from accidentally bellyflopping into dirt. Thanks for that.
Welcome, Keanu!
Korriban sees Callie pull out the button. "And we already found it. We're the best. Let's go down."
