Uthred Wartooth

Uthred has reduced CON right now so he wont get to 28 hp
Uthred continues to go sulk in the corner.
Sarephta Nigh
|
I don't need any of the items, and I'm fine to keep checking for traps.
"What is with all the moths?" Sarephta wonders. "Revolting little creatures with their powdery wings..."
The cleric removes a vial of acid from her bandolier.
"We should probably be prepared for them to attack us...there are a lot of them."
Artoria
|
Artoria turns to the owl on her shoulder and gives him a nod. Archimedes flies off, fluttering about the room as he investigates it for anything of interest, taking great care to avoid setting off the weakened floor.
Take 20 for 30 on perception
Artoria
|
Archimedes flaps in Artoria's face, sqawking in annoyance at her wasting his time.
"Fine, fine. Let's go downstairs."
Uthred Wartooth
|
"Alright....fine....I just want to hit something....blood sucking birds....crazy teens....evil goo....some stupid scarecrow....this mission is no fun...." Uthred says under his breath as he follows the paladin
| Chyrone |
Oh, but it's going to be become even 'more' fun.
Descending the stairs, you now wrestle through thick webbing, making it difficult terrain.
The walls of this low-ceilinged basement are decorated by curtains made out of a mix of thick sheets of webs adorned with countless dead insects. Most of these are flies and mosquitoes, some of which are quite large.
At the far end of the room sits a low wooden table on which a hideous shape crouches—a human-sized statue of an insectile monster made from corn husks, dry branches, rags, and bones. The floor of the room is an uneven layer of moist soil and earth, and three shovels, their blades caked with earth, lean against the side of the stairs.
Your noses detect the faint smell of rot and decay.
It gets much stronger the nearer you get to the center of the floor.
Fort DC 14 vs 1 minute of nauseated.
The crude statue on the table is some sort of a representation of the god of parasites, Ghlaunder.
Upon closer examination of the statue, you notice some parts of it have been splashed with blood and some items are on the ground underneath the table.
Mosquito masks and tattered cloth robes.
Sarephta Nigh

Sarephta holds a hand up as they enter.
"Beware! Rot, and decay. I fear undead may be near. I loathe these unholy creatures!"
She examines the statue, but can't quite but her finger on what it represents, though it seems at the tip of her tongue.
"What are these people...doing here?" she wonders.

@Hyglak: So how much of the healing could you take? 'Cause I healed you up to 25, unless your max HP is currently lower.

Aryn takes her time to inspect the room and the items in it thoroughly.

FOR: 1d20 + 5 - 1 ⇒ (9) + 5 - 1 = 13 and nauseated...
Uthreds constitution-al maladies continue
"What is going on now?" Uthred meekly mutters out griping his stomach...
| Chyrone |
Either by hand or by shovel, you start clearing the middle of the floor.
Much to your dismay, you stumble upon bodies, at least a dozen. Many of them little more thn skeletons, but there are a few fresher corpses.
The freshest still bears a full head of red hair and wears a suit of ruined nobleman’s clothes.
Artoria
|
Artoria scowls as she sees the fresh body.
"Didn't the tax collector we were looking for have red hair?"
Sarephta Nigh
|
"If so, I'm afraid we have found him," Sarephta frowns.
She searches the nobleman's clothes for any proof this might be the tax collector.
take 20 perception on his corpse and other new ones
Uthred Wartooth
|
is Uthred still nauseated?
"Such barbarism. Evil folk at work here. I do not believe we should give them any quarter if it is requested. I doubt these victims here were given such mercy. Can any of you healers see what wounds they have? Might assist us in the coming fight."
| Chyrone |
No, it was a temporary effect.
Anything of value was taken from the dead already, and aside from the number of bodies, nothing of note catches your eye.
Examining, you deduct Kyle's cause of death is to be the gush across the stomach. More disturbing is the fact that he was stuffed with corn
husks and a few dead stirges.
Artoria

Artoria shakes her head at Uthred's outburst.
"We should not allow others' lack of honor make us forget ours. That path is one I have no interest in."

"Then turn your eyes Miss when that moment comes and let me deal with it."
just RPing him
Artoria
|
Artoria glares at Uthred.
"I do not turn my eyes from anything. A paladin that relies upon such self-deception is deficient in both hobor and faith."

Aryn Seavon
|
"Give me some time to do this properly."
Heal, take 20: 20 + 0 = 20
Aryn checks the corpse of the tax collector with utmost care, taking her time to determine what happened to him.
"There's a gush across his stomach, which is the cause of his death. And... wow... he was stuffed with corn husks and dead stirges..."
She gets up and glares at the wound on the tax collector. "That's sick..."
Artoria
|
"I have seen far worse. Evil cults draw out the worst aspects of people, indeed."
Artoria moves to leave.
"We should investigate the fields outside as well."
Uthred Wartooth
|
what time of day is it by now?
Uthred agrees and goes outside looking to see if anything is amiss...

Sarephta Nigh

Sarephta looks troubled as they leave the house.
"This cult...it is responsible for great evil. I don't feel we have scratched the surface," she says as she investigates the raked leaves.

While the cleric is investigating the leaves Uthred will check out the shed...

"It appears someone has been here recently using the gardening tools. Take care, we may be watched by them right now."
Aryn Seavon
|
"Let's check the barn next?" Aryn suggests, while looking around to see if anyone's watching the party.
Perception: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15
| Chyrone |
Aryn doesn't spot anyone snooping of lurking.
Holes perforate the roof of this old barn, while streaks of bird droppings and smears of dark red stains decorate the portions that remain intact.
The dilapidated remains of a sagging hayloft drip with accumulated rainwater, while at the barn’s back wall stands a makeshift, candlelit shrine crowned with an enormous set of mothlike wings of moldy canvas.
Sarephta Nigh
|
Sarephta casts detect magic to see if she finds anything of interest in the barn.
"If I never saw another moth in my life, it would be too soon..."
She moves closer to the shrine to investigate.

While Sarephta takes a first look inside, she notices nothing unusual.
But not more than several steps inside, something swings at her from the nearby shadows, and a figure storms at her from the shadows ahead.
After receiving a whack to the head with a club, she sees a very ugly deformed humanoid, with blood thirsty eyes.

"Cravens! The King of Knights will not tolerate such dishonorable combat."
Artoria begins circling around towards the open back of the barn to try to flank the enemies, stopping to cast a spell.

In the close quarters and battered by the unseen enemy, Sarephta only has time to draw her longsword, swing, and step back into the light of the doorway.
"Fall back!" she cries.

Aryn
Sarephta, you take 1 con dmg.
Hopefully you'll pass your next save.
Aryn Seavon

"There won't be any snacks for you fiends!"
Aryn 5-foot steps into the barn, draws her greatsword, and swings the blade at bearded man directly north of her.

Artoria finishes circling around, Archimedes flying at her shoulder.
"Leaving your flank open. The mark of amateurs!"
She brings her sword down upon the cultist swatting at Uthred.
