I get ready to cast grease. I chew a few marmalades while waiting. Yum!
ARE WE SUPPOSED TO KILL THE CONGREGATION?
*readies lute and SM 1....just in case things don't go as planned*
When he sees the priests come out he yells "I want to see the Swizzle Stick of Magic. May I see it please."
Nasty: You are asked to be quiet or leave.
After a few minutes, everyone is settled in their seats. The two priests in the back start their walk toward the front. At the front, the High Priest walks over to a cutain and pulls it aside. A silver and gold chest sits on a pedistal. There are eight guards around it. Four of the guards are watching the chest while the other four are watching outward. The high priest is joined by the other two and they start circling the chest, swinging the sensors back and forth. Shortly, they finish and walk to the side where there is a lectern.

I BET THERE'S A BODY IN THAT CHEST.

Sorry. =)
Still ready to grease the place.
The High Priest: "One hundred and seventy-two years ago today, Saint Swizal was born. He was born into a humble family. His mother was a seamstress and his father worked in the stables of a king. As he grew, the young Swizal was constantly causing mischief. He would play haress tricks on people and make those around him laugh. On his 18th birthday he was summoned before the king. "
First Priest: The king summoned Swizal because of something that happened recently. An unusual prank had been observed by the King's son. The young prince had found it very amusing. He had told his father all about it. The king too thought it funny. Since young Swizal had not yet chosen a profession, the king gave him one, as Court Jester.
Second Priest: For many years Swizal served the king, providing entertainment. He accompanied the king and prince on many trips. One such trip brought them to Lichberg. The prince had come looking for an unusual gift for his mother. That is when the trouble began.
High Priest: "Some farmers came into town warning that some Vegigoblins were raiding their farms. The Watch was sent out to take care of them. Only three returned. They told the tale of fifty Vegigoblins had ambushed them and as the were escaping the saw many more on the way. Hundreds were going to attack soon. The town was being surrounded. There was no way to evacuate the prince in time. That is when Swizal acted. Some say it was madness, others afterward said it was divine, but Swizal knew he must save his prince. He tore a stick off a tree and ran out of the town toward the invading hoard.
"Several hours passed, but there was no attack. When finally some if the Watch went to investigate, the found a hundred dead Vegigoblins, but there was o sign of Swizal. One of them had a stick in its eye. The very same stick Swizal had taken with him. The very same stick we now show you today."
With that he walks over to the chest, pulls out a key and unlocks it. He opens the chest, and by some craftsmanship built into it, as the lid is raised, so to is a shelf on which sits the Stick. At that moment, the sun shines through the window and down upon the Stick, a halo of light surrounding it.
Pretty stick...
DUDE, THAT STICK COULD BE ANYTHING. I COULD FIND A STICK LIKE THAT OUT IN THE WOODS RIGHT NOW.
A glabrezu appears in the middle of the crowd, but it whispy and incense can be seen flowing through it.
Nesod: You go invisible, but your outline can be seen in the smoke.
*start singing, although you thought his songs were pathetic in the past 4 pages or so, they now fill you with a sense of bravado*
the party gets a +1 to anything and everything*
*Back out of church door, ready spell as soon as the party is out of church*
Everyone sees a ghostly outline pick up the stick. They fall to their knees in prayer.
No grease yet...
As the Stick floats thru the air towards the back of the church, the congregation gets up and starts to follow it.
I follow the bunch.
| 4 people marked this as a favorite. |
HEY, I BET IF YOU THREW THAT STICK OFF A CLIFF THE CONGREGATION WOULD FOLLOW.
Just then an old farmer come running up.
HELP. THE VEGIGOBLINS ARE ATTACKING!!
Lyin Farmer
*Casts SM 1* on farmers head*
*Appears on head of farmer*
gets squishy on his windpipe
Coming from the north is a hoard of Vegigoblins.
"Save us St Swizal!" The crowd cries in unison.
I follow the crowd and the party and ready my "Special stick" I discovered earlier in the adventure.
The Vegigoblins flinch when the fireball goes off, but when they see they are unharmed, they keep coming.
Grease! Vegigoblins need proper fat before frying.
Nasty orc follows the crowd. "St Swizal is here I want to see him."
When he sees and hears about the Vegigoblins he cries out.
"LUNCH is served. !!!!!"
He dives in the group of Vegigoblins closest to him. Grabbing one while his unhinges his jaw and gobbels him up.
Moving onto the next and so on.
