John:

- Dwarven Axehead - You may make this into a war axe or dwarven urgrosh for half it's normal price. For instance, a war axe is 3500gp, so for 1750 he could have a war axe. It would be even cheaper if a crafter makes it.

- Runestones (3)

(1) Rune of Torch Light This rune creates a glowing ball of light that floats above your shoulder and lights the area as well as a torch. It lasts for three hours, and will dim and flare as you command it. No save required.

(1) Rune of Adjustment
This rune adjusts one armor, weapon, shield, or clothing item to fit the caster or target, which lasts through one adventure.

(1)Rune of Forced Quiet 600gp | 125gp | 225gp | 1CP
Ever have that party member that just cannot stay quiet? This rune causes one full party and it's accoutrements (horses, wagons, pets, etc) to be forced to remain quiet for 1 hour. Save required if resistant.



Viola:

- Burned scroll case containing a handwritten (in Bryonish) account of what happened here 437 years ago, when the lord of the manor went crazy and killed his family. It is written by that lord, and explains in detail every step he took as sort of confession.

- 50gp

- Bastard Sword [1d6]



Warren:

- Mage's Spellbook: You may add 3 new spells of your choosing to your spell list.

animal together esp if people are slow....

Mighty Gar thog: (I'm the opposite! It takes me longer!)

Tesarik One: (I'm not in the mood to argue over silly issues tonight. If you

don't like my rules, don't play when I'm DMing.)

Tesarik One: (Your snake passes probably 90% of the time anyway so it's

easier to have him right after you)

Mighty Gar thog: (ver well ~sighs~)

Tesarik One: (I will put him where you rolled this time because I'm way too

nice, but if it slows us down considerably and then you end up typing a pass,

I will move him.)

Tesarik One: ^v^ 10/14/2014 9:27:46 PM ^v^

Tesarik One: Ok fellow adventurers, it is nearing the time of year when the

veil between the living and the dead is thin (halloween!) and so many strange

things have started to occur around Arith. Not all need the expertise of the

Heart, but

Tesarik One: today Maria has been asked to get a group together to not only

explore an apparently 'haunted' keep, but to locate a group of missing

adventurers who headed to said keep a week or so ago and have not been heard

of since. The keep is

Tesarik One: located in Bryony, fairly near Tuckbury, so the portal is

opened into the main square of the village of Tuckbury. The main inne/tavern

is called the Fryer Tuck Inn. You will need to go and seek information there.

(Begin RP)

Tesarik Five: Warren had been out and about when he heard about something

being haunted, and of course the curious little fairy just had to go and see

what it was! Quick to bolt through the portal he looked around, a big smile

on his little face

abenedictionhymn: Viola stood quietly in the inne while the portal was

opened, tying her azure blue coat around her small waist to keep it nice and

tight. Her long blonde hair was braided and curled in a sort of crown atop

her head, and her hands were wrapped with the handwraps of a lighter shade of

blue. Usually barefoot, she'd decided

Mighty Gar thog: ~The Snake was wrapped around Weshs arm, while he wore a

bandolier this eve, with a spear dangling off its one strap, and a khopesh

shaped sheath off another, he stepped through, smiled to Raelgil and said

lowly~ Ladies

Mighty Gar thog: first.

abenedictionhymn: it would be a good idea to wear boots tonight. A copper

torc bearing snarling lion heads seemed a bit too gaudy for the monk to wear,

nonetheless it was around her neck. As the portal opened, she headed for it

with a big smile and a bounce in her step.

SwordOfAtrophy: "I ain't afraid of no ghost.." "Don't recall anyone saying

you were." A final check of the gear to make sure he was ready, and

everything was all set. A stock of who would be coming, and a nod to a few

familiar faces. "Ah, well at

Tesarik One: Maria stood there waiting for everyone to gather, and when they

had she spoke, "Tonight, we need someone to lead.... "

RageofNocturne: :: John stepped through the portal portal in his were form

his duskwood armor being worn over his fur with his cloak of the ursa along

with a sword, whip and gun on his hips he sniffed around a bit then looked

around the main square

Adal Ag Hamid: A haunted keep! Well that sounded like it might be

interesting. He had gone back to the desert a bit, but he came back when he

heard about this! Although since he no longer needed to be in disguise, he

was all done up in his robes,

RageofNocturne: and shook his fur out then looked to Maria and blinked but

well he was no leader-D-

Tales0fBeauty: The beautiful snow elf would have heard about a place being

haunted and being the elf she was seemed like the place for her to be, kaldra

would follow her as always, she offered each and everyone that showed up a

nod and she would

Tesarik One: (If you'd like to be the leader tonight, then roll a 1d20)

Tales0fBeauty: go through the portal with the others and looked to maria and

noded. (D)

Tesarik Five: as he turned in the air there in quick jerky actions, trying

to get a look at everything before he tried to find anything that looked

shiney.

Adal Ag Hamid: veil and turban, obscuring any real features except from his

eyes. The robes were all loose, so it was even difficult to tell what sort of

build he had! Golden eyes shifted to Maria and blinked, then he held up his

hands and shook

OnlineHost: Tesarik Five rolled 1 20-sided die: 11

OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty rolled 1 20-sided die: 12

SwordOfAtrophy: least Vi is here. Someone with some sense that I can talk

to.." "Oh don't worry, I'll keep the ghosts away with my beautiful singing

voice." "Joy of joys..."

Adal Ag Hamid: his head a bit, then signed to her. "It may be difficult for

me to lead if not everyone understands commonsign."

OnlineHost: Mighty Gar thog rolled 1 20-sided die: 2

Mighty Gar thog: (hee hee)

Tesarik One: She nodded to Adal, and glanced around at those gathered. "I'm

going to allow various people to lead in the coming weeks, and at the end

your teammates will vote and tell me how well you led. If any of you

completely disregard your

Tesarik One: leader, your pay will be docked. Hmm. Well, Raelgil you will

lead tonight. Agreed?"

SwordOfAtrophy: "Fine with me. Though, you know, Maria.. doll.. if I didn't

know any better I'd think you saddled me with this sword on purpose.."

"That.. that hurts me, E. It really does." "Oh nobody believes you."

Tales0fBeauty: She looked to her and gave a firm nod while holding her gaze

with those silver eyes of hers "It will be my honor." (D)

Mighty Gar thog: Docked? Like how much? ~that made him blink a few times~

Tesarik One: She snickered hearing Ellis, and then nodded to Raelgil before

replying to Ellis, "I might have gotten tired of it being noisy in my

treasure room.... just possibly. Ok off you all go. Be careful, find the

missing team, explore the

Adal Ag Hamid: Well at least there were enough people chattering away that

him not talking might not stand out so much! Including objects. He eyed the

chatty person and the chatty sword, then looked to Wesh at his question and

tilted his head a

Tesarik One: keep if possible. You'll need to ask around at the Fryer Tuck

before you head off."

Adal Ag Hamid: bit, not seeing what that mattered. They had a leader! Unless

she gave orders that were completely horrid, he didn't mind abiding by them.

He looked to Raelgil a moment then, before he looked back to Maria and

grinned a little,

Tesarik One: "However much I decide based on what you've done," she replied

to Wesh, with a slight narrowing of her eyes, "You aren't even an official

member of the Heart, gypsy, so if I were you I'd be glad at whatever you get

from me."

Adal Ag Hamid: though the veil hid it apart from at the corners of his eyes,

and he signed again. "Hopefully I won't be the only one with good questions

to ask."

SwordOfAtrophy: "You got it. We'll be back.. in.. as close to the same

condition as we leave." Then he and the chatty mchatterson sword were off

through the portal to parts unknown, well, that wasn't true as they knew

exactly where they were going.

RageofNocturne: :: He looked to Raelgil then nodded-- So the paladin is the

leader....i can live with that... --he said then looked to Maria and heard

the name of the inn and stepped a bit ways then stopped and looked to

Raelgil-- Im going to check

RageofNocturne: out this inn, hopefully some will have a loose tongue to my

questions.-D-

abenedictionhymn: She headed over to Ellis and gave him a little tap to his

ear playfully, and then moved over to the veiled Adal and nudged his

shoulder, "Hey."

Tales0fBeauty: She looked to everyone and gave a frim nod "Alright lets go

find out what we can from the fyer tuck inn, i think it is wise that those

with diplomacy ask questions when we get there agreed?" (D)

Mighty Gar thog: ~He thought he was, since he had acquired a ring and the

pin item, to use. He loved all the extras she seemed to give~

Adal Ag Hamid: He'd arrived in a bit of a rush, so he took the time while

heading out to pull out his handwraps and get his hands all wrapped up and

ready for fightin in case it was needed, smiling at the feel of the holy

energy running through

Adal Ag Hamid: him. He looked to Viola and smiled all the more, offering a

nod in response to her greeting. Did she understand his signing? He couldn't

remember who did and did not!

Tesarik One: She only gave those items to members of the Heart, it specified

that in the newsletter! So if he had them, he stole 'em!

Tesarik Five: Typical gypsy with the stealing!

Adal Ag Hamid: Thieving gypsies? Somewhere, once again, Baldur got angry for

no reason.

abenedictionhymn: She unfortunately did not speak sign language.

Mighty Gar thog: ~He would follow behind Raelgil, thinking he would try to

act as a guard to the leader this eve. That rarely fails!~

SwordOfAtrophy: Though a 'hi' sign gesture would probably be pretty

universal, no?

Tesarik Five: ANYWHO! With all that sorted out Warren just sort of fluttered

about. He'd already of gone through the portal, being sneaky, and darting

past Maria before she had the chance to say anything. So he was just sort of

waiting for the

Tesarik One: So, through the portal they went, into the main area of the

village. The Fryer Tuck Inn was located right across from the grassy area in

the midst of town. Even at this time of day (mid-day) there were people going

in and out, but

Tesarik One: not many. Only a handful of folks were inside the popular inn.

A grizzled old man with long white hair and beard stood behind the bar,

wiping some glasses.

Adal Ag Hamid: Of course! That's what the nod was for. He even gave her

shoulder a little pat and a squeeze, then it was through the portal! He

glanced up at the sky to see what the weather was doing in Bryony, and headed

towards the inn, stepping

Adal Ag Hamid: inside and grinning when he saw the man behind the bar. He

hadn't been to Bryony before, but if it had grizzled Santa tending bar, it

couldnt' be too bad. (brb)

Tesarik Five: others. Arms crossed at his chest, and as the others filed

though he smiled to them all and followed right on along with them.

abenedictionhymn: Viola was from Bryony, but from the big city of Shrine.

She hadn't even been to Tuckbury before, but she knew Bryonish! She headed to

the bar and slid her little rear end onto a stool and smiled at the keep,

speaking in Bryonish, "Good day, sir. Cup of tea, please?"

Mighty Gar thog: ~The snake tried to remain silent, hoping to go unnoticed

amongst people. Wesh stayed near the back, watching the people, hood down to

hide his face~

Tesarik One: He poured her a cup of black tea and slid it over, and glanced

to the others moving in as well. Odd group of people, enough to make him

raise a brow, "Must be a group of adventurers, they all have the same sorta

chaotic look about

Tesarik One: them. Where you all headed?"

Adal Ag Hamid: He gestured writing on his hand to the bartender. Hopefully

he'd get something to write on, and he wrote that he would also like a cup of

tea, and handed it back to the man. (brb for reals!)

Tesarik One: He spoke in common.

SwordOfAtrophy: He intended to offer to his services as an information

sniffer, but Viola beat him too it. Eh, she was better suited anyway, though

he could attempt to help, and he saddled next to her, but faced the other

way, maybe to find a

Tales0fBeauty: She would step through the portal with the others and kaldra

was right behind her he of course followed her everywhere unless commanded to

do otherwise, she would make her way to the inn and she would see the grizzly

old man and

Tesarik One: Adal got a cup of tea as well.

Tesarik Five: "A haunted keep!" Warren spoke up in a quick little cherp.

RageofNocturne: :: With the others he went and he would head inside and

looked around the place and at those whom were within the Inne and looked to

the man behind the bar-- We are heading to the haunted keep.. Might I come to

ask you a question? -

SwordOfAtrophy: waitress or something, someone who overhears things. Because

well, he was a kid, and women generally found him adorable and would tell him

things with a bit of prying.

abenedictionhymn: She sipped her tea, and smiled over at Ellis when he sat

beside her, then looked back to the man. Raelgil was in charge, so for now

she'd stay quiet.

RageofNocturne: -the bloodhound asked as he got out his notebook of

inquiry-D-

Tales0fBeauty: gave him a firm nod "We are looking for a group of missing

adventurers who came this way, you wouldnt happen to know anything about that

would you?" (D)

Tesarik One: Raelgil, John roll a Gather Info check. Add CHA.

OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty rolled 1 20-sided die: 12

OnlineHost: RageofNocturne rolled 1 20-sided die: 6

Tales0fBeauty: +2 CHA, +6 reputation=20)

RageofNocturne: +5 Investigator, +3 You're Shitting Me, +5 Notebook of

Inquiry= 19)

Mighty Gar thog: ~Seeing the one guy get a notebook out, he thought maybe he

should take his out, too, but simply petted his snake, instead~

Tesarik One: "Aye, the Keep. I’d not go there if I were you. There was a

bunch of people much like yourselves went up there not too long ago, must be

the missing adventurers you're looking for. An elf, a

Tesarik One: dwarf, couple of big guys with swords, a priest of Leaxo's, and

a real pretty mage lady. Nice people; said they had a treasure map, they

did, and they was going up there to get the treasure. Left, what

Tesarik One: was it, six days ago, wasn’t it? Never came back. Figured they

hit the jackpot and left by another way."

Tesarik One: He looked at John and raised a brow, "What sorta question you

want to ask me?"

RageofNocturne: :: He nodded as he listened and wrote all of the info down--

Well my question was sir. Had anything strange occured the night the other

team left here? Or was anything heard from the keep about what would have

possibly happened to t

abenedictionhymn: She was using her fingers to count how many the man named;

elf, dwarf, 2 fighters, priest and mage..6 folks. She continued to listen.

RageofNocturne: hem? For they never did return nor was word heard of them

since they made their trek there.--he spoke as he looked to the man waiting

to scribe down more information if the man had any to give-D-

Adal Ag Hamid: He sipped at his tea, lifting his veil up just enough to get

the sipping done, then set the cup down and closed his eyes, thinking a bit

and taking in the information being said.

Tesarik Five: "Oooo! What kind of treasure?" Well he didn't really expect

the man to know that, but he'd ask anyway! Fluttering on down to land on the

bar top he smiled wide. Then looking back to the others and their questions.

Did they really

Tesarik One: "Nothing I remember happening in town, not many go up by ways

of the haunted keep. It's all grown over, not a main road, no one lives out

that way. Just an old stone tower in the hills a few miles from here, kind of

a wilderness

Tesarik Five: have to ask all these things? The keep is where they wanted to

go, and they knew it! Though he didn't know anything about what Maria had

said of course.

Tesarik One: area you might so. Like I says it's haunted, so if they didn't

find the treasure the ghosts probably got 'em." He grinned a bit, then

shrugged. "Wouldn't catch anyone here in this town going to that blasted

keep. It was built by a

Tesarik One: former member of the Council of Wands, but it's been in ruins

for ages. Legend has it..." he leaned forward at this, voice going low, "..

after the lord of the castle went into an unexplained rage, he

Tesarik One: murdered his ENTIRE household. No wonder it's fuckin' haunted,

eh?" He leaned back and began to clean the glasses again, the pointed. "Just

take the main road south, turn on the first path to the right."

SwordOfAtrophy: "Question, if I may sir.."

Tesarik One: He grunted and nodded.

Tales0fBeauty: (amulet of teamwork in play +6 to damage, saves and spell

dcs)

abenedictionhymn: She wrinkled her nose, killing everyone in ones household

sounded pretty awful to her, what if there were children? She fidgeted a bit,

and finished drinking some of her tea then offered some to Ellis since she

was sure they'd be leaving soon. "Want a sip?"

SwordOfAtrophy: "Any of these adventurers look lightly armed? Maybe wearing

leather, or carrying knives?"

Mighty Gar thog: Did the owner ever die, be seen dead? ~he did not ask if he

could ask~

RageofNocturne: :: He nodded as he wrote down the words of the keeper then

looked to him-- Any other things you can think of about the Keep that we may

need to know? --he asked then looked to Ellis before his eyes shifted back to

the man-- And fina

Adal Ag Hamid: He opened his eyes again, then picked up his cup once more

and once again snuck it under his veil to have a drink.

RageofNocturne: lly....yes did the Lord ever die and can you describe what

the legend says he looked like per chance?-D-

Tesarik One: "Yeah..pretty sure most of them were wearing leather armor, two

had the swords, elf had a bow, dwarf... axe I think. Dwarf had some hefty

armor on him. Didn't really notice any knives but I wasn't taking stock in

what they owned."

SwordOfAtrophy: "Oh, thank you darlin." He took a sip from her cup, resting

a hand on her shoulder to reassure her restlessness. "More than helpful,

thank you sir."

Tesarik One: He paused and then shrugged, "Dunno what happened to the lord

of the keep, and as far as what he looked like, hell if I know. This was ages

ago. Some folks say they see a lady ghost up on the ramparts of the tower,

some say they see

Tesarik One: children playing about the hills. You'd best be heading there

before it gets dark though, I suppose. I'd sure hate to be up there come

twilight."

Tales0fBeauty: She was done with her questions but would let the others ask

whatever they thought was pertinent to the mission two heads were better then

one, and she had 6 allies, which was a good thing she would wait till the old

man behind the

Tales0fBeauty: bar was done answering all the questions asked and looked to

her allies "well if no one else has any other questions I think we best

follow his advice and head to the tower..." (D)

Mighty Gar thog: The crazy lord is the haunter. Bet he's not dead, just

crazy. The last adventurers, might be alive and trapped, dead, or teleported

elsewhere.

RageofNocturne: :: He nodded-- Well it was worth to ask. Thank you very much

sir, have a good night. --he said after writting all the information the man

had to give down then labeled it under Bryony Keep before he closed the

notebook and put it aw

Adal Ag Hamid: True, getting there before dark would be nice! He enjoyed the

sun. Of course he did, he would've left the desert ages ago if he didn't. He

finished off his tea, then settled his veil back into place and nodded his

thanks to the man.

RageofNocturne: ay-- I say we take a look at the hills around it first

before heading right on in but you are the leader Lady Raelgil. --he said and

nodded to her-D-

Adal Ag Hamid: He assumed that Maria would cover their tea tab, ha! Out he

went, stretching out a little to make sure he was all limbered up.

abenedictionhymn: She patted Ellis' hand when it rested on her shoulder, and

when all the questions were asked adn they were ready to go, she rose upwards

and brushed out her coat, then headed towards the door back out into the

sunlight. She smiled up at the warmth of the sun kissing her face and then

turned towards that road he'd said, heading south. "There's the road."

Tales0fBeauty: She would thank the old man and heading out with the others

down the road headed south. (D)

Adal Ag Hamid: Yep, on down the road it was for him as well!

Mighty Gar thog: ~As he followed behind Raelgil, he continued to speak~

Children could be kobolds or goblins, at a distance, too.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Double time then." "On the road again... I can't wait to

get on the road again..." "Please don't do that." Down the road they went,

eagle eyes looking for the turn off the man mentioned.

Tesarik One: It was about a half a mile out of the town before they found

that path. It looked barely used, overgrown, but it was passable. It's hilly

land, so it's difficult to see too far ahead of you and the road is winding.

Thick canopied

Tesarik One: trees only just now beginning to turn fall colors shade much of

the road. As they turn a corner though.....you all see lumps in the road

ahead. You're too far to make out exactly what they are, but it looks like

large bodies.

Tesarik Five: Welp, as the others started off done with their questions he

was right behind them. Leaping off the bar before flying right behind them.

Adal Ag Hamid: Bodies? Well obviously he'd be moving up to see what sorts of

bodies and what in the world was going on there.

abenedictionhymn: She was at the head of the line since she'd left first, so

she'd spot the lumps and give a sniff of the air. She pointed forward, so all

would notice if they hadn't, "Looks like something's happened ahead of us,

watch out, it could be a trap."

RageofNocturne: :: He walked with the all and narrowed his eyes seeing the

bumps and lifted a brow-- What are those...maybe you should let me check

ahead? --he asked them and lifted a brow-- I can turn into a domestic dog and

take a look ahead if e

RageofNocturne: veryones alright with that?-D-

Tesarik Five: (Not sure if it's forest....But if it is, then Warren can't be

surprise attacked.)

Tesarik One: Adal had already moved towards the bodies!

Mighty Gar thog: Sounds fine by me.

Adal Ag Hamid: He was indeed moving towards the bodies.

Tesarik One: It's woodsy yes, hills mostly but woods in areas.

Tesarik One: Whoever moves ahead to scout out the bodies .....You see eight

dead orcs lying along the trail in a space of about fifty feet. To judge

from the condition of the bodies, they have been here about a

Tesarik One: week. Two of the orc bodies have arrows sticking out of them,

three others are hideously burned, and the other three appear to have died

from sword cuts. Just off to the side of the trail, there is a

Tesarik One: mound of dirt that appears to be a recently-dug grave. At one

end of the mound is a marker consisting of a roughly-cut log, about three

feet high, with a holy symbol of Leaxo attached to it.

Tales0fBeauty: She looked to viola and then looked ahead and then looked to

the wolf and noded "It would be good to see if it is a trap first but I

believe one of members has already strayed to far ahead." (D)

Tesarik One: Adal roll a Spot.

Adal Ag Hamid: Well hey, nobody had stopped him! He knelt down near the

first body he came to and gave it a quick examination, but it did seem they

were dead for quite a while.

OnlineHost: Adal Ag Hamid rolled 1 20-sided die: 16

Adal Ag Hamid: +5 alert = 21

Tesarik Five: That little fairy was moving about the trees, coming right up

to them and pressing an ear to each of them. As if he were listening to the

trees. Giving a little giggle at one more he then blinked, hearing about

bodies he flew back

RageofNocturne: :: Well...--ahh well nevermind. --he said since the other

had went ahead and then would slowly start making his way ahead and stopped

midway between Adal and the group and lowered down listening to the earth

below to see if anything

RageofNocturne: was around tem for 30 feet in each direction-D- Ear to the

Ground (can detect anything if it touching the ground within 30 feet of them)

Tesarik Five: to the group and then went to land on Reagils shoulder.

Adal Ag Hamid: He moved amongst the bodies, checking them out, then turned

back towards the group and signed. Does aaaanyone have commonsign or was he

signing to nobody?

Mighty Gar thog: ~Wesh moved over to the grass, leaning down, whispering to

it ~ What specicies is buried here? (Animism)

Tesarik One: I don't know what Wesh is asking, clarify.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Far too quiet, though it could just be... well, maybe we

should have brought an interpretor." He'd take the chance and move forward to

join Adal amidst the dead.

Tales0fBeauty: She would smile seeing the fae land on her shoulder and she

would lift her hand to pat him lightly on the head with her index finger,

there were only a few that could make the zorcan smile and the fae were one

of them. Those

Mighty Gar thog: (You said there was a buried spot with a tombstone. asking

species, dwarf, elf, human...)

Adal Ag Hamid: He let out a small sigh, then cleared his throat. "It would

seem these orcs ambushed the previous adventuring group, and likely killed

one of their number..." Said in his heavily accented common with a point at

the fresh grave. "And

Adal Ag Hamid: then were driven off back into the woods."

Tesarik One: (Oh ok I wasn't sure what specicies meant)

Tesarik Five: He patted Raegil on the side of her head, as he was there on

her shoulder, before he pointed off to the side. "There are more dead orcs

over there." They would of course be further in the forest.

RageofNocturne: :: He stood back up-- Nothing but animals around us. --he

said and nodded to the others-D-

Adal Ag Hamid: So hey, anyone who had previously seen him in disguise might

well recognize the voice at least!

Tales0fBeauty: silvery hues would scan the area "this looks like an

encounter our missing group of adventurers had with some orcs and it looks

like they lost a memeber of their team and buried them there" she said

pointing to the grave that was

Mighty Gar thog: (lol typo)

Tales0fBeauty: dug marked with the holy symbol for Leaxo. (D)

Mighty Gar thog: Well, ~he rose back to his feet~ A human is buried here,

killed by the orcs, I'd say, buried by their bad priest.

Tesarik One: Anyone want to roll an Insight?

SwordOfAtrophy: "Does fit with the timeline, but I can't imagine the

remaining Orcs are still lurking nearby, so it should be relatively safe for

now." "The other group left us a few breadcrumbs looks like." "At a price.."

He looked further up the

SwordOfAtrophy: path.

SwordOfAtrophy: (I will)

Tales0fBeauty: (i will)

He'd insight!

Adal Ag Hamid: (11)

SwordOfAtrophy: (2 + 12 (Incredible Insight, Per 2, Investigator) = 14)

RageofNocturne: ohh +3 perception too= 20)

Mighty Gar thog: (26 let me look up my bonyus from, to state)

Tales0fBeauty: (8)

Tales0fBeauty: The elf apparently wasnt very perceptive but thank the gods

she had allies that were! (D)

Tesarik One: Sent info via IM to those that passed Insight.

Mighty Gar thog: Opps. That symbol is not drawn on, its the actual symbol of

the priest. He is buried here.

abenedictionhymn: "Bad priest? Now how in the name of the heavens would you

already condemn their poor priest to being bad? Who are you to judge?" She

wrinkled her nose, she already didn't like that fellow. He was rude,

condescending and just not nice to be around. "Anyway, it's the priest that

is dead. That symbol is probably what he wore."

abenedictionhymn: She looked towards Raelgil, and waited for her to make a

decision on what to do next.

RageofNocturne: :: He looked at the grave then sniffed around it and looked

at the symbol then shook his head-- No....it was the priest that died, most

likely the symbol he wore is what is carved on the wood. So that would leave

5 others that went

RageofNocturne: to the Keep.-D-

Tesarik One: It's not carved on the wood, it's attached to it.

RageofNocturne: ohh)

SwordOfAtrophy: "That doesn't bode well for them, to lose the one with

healing arts to an Orc ambush."

Adal Ag Hamid: He shook his head a little, then made a note to come back and

properly dispose of the orcs' remains once they were done. He wasn't

comfortable with anyone just being left to rot, though he also wasn't sure

what orcs tended to do

abenedictionhymn: "No, it doesn't."

Tales0fBeauty: She would nod hearing the others "It is sad they lost a

memeber lets hope we do not suffer the same fate, we shall continue onward

with our quest, we are in search of 5 missing adventurers now, stay alert and

keep an eye out for

Tales0fBeauty: anything..." (D)

Adal Ag Hamid: with their dead. At any rate, it'd be something to deal with

later. "The priest was not necessarily the only one with the ability to

heal." He could heal, after all! And he was no priest. He shut up again for

now then, having talked

Adal Ag Hamid: more in the last ten minutes than he had in the last month!

Mighty Gar thog: (investigator +5, Beholder +5, btw)

abenedictionhymn: "So, moving on?" She nodded and turned, heading along the

path again. She was looking about, left to right and ahead because now she

was a little nervous about orc ambushes!

Tesarik One: After about a mile and a half, you spot the keep.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Only? No. But they train in it exclusively. Kinda why

they're around."

Adal Ag Hamid: That..depended entirely on the priest!

Tesarik One: The Keep is a large stone tower that appears to be five stories

high, sitting on top of a low hill. There appears to have been a wall around

it once, long ago, but the only evidence of that is a low,

Mighty Gar thog: ~He was in a daze, for a brief time, then looked at the

others~

Tesarik One: irregular mound covered in vines and weeds. The Keep itself is

intact. In the wall facing you, there is a large double door at ground

level, which is partway open. In the level above it, there is

Tesarik One: a row of arrow slits. Above that are a row of larger windows,

evenly spaced. The fourth level has a group of three stained glass windows

in the center.

SwordOfAtrophy: Stop ruining my point with your silly details!

Tesarik One: You all catch the faint smell of rotting flesh as the breeze

blows towards you.

Adal Ag Hamid: Oh, that lovely smell of rotting flesh, splendid. He wrinkled

his nose and eyed the keep a good bit.

Tales0fBeauty: She would take the lead and moved back on the path after

stepping around the dead bodies. She would wait for the others to follow then

spotted the keep and then she wrinkled her nose as she sniffed the air and

caught the scent of

Tales0fBeauty: death she moved more slowly and cautiously "Be on your gaurd

something is not right here." (D)

abenedictionhymn: "Eww, something's dead... ghosts don't usually smell like

that do they?" She moved along with the group, glancing to make sure that

Adal was near, and Ellis was near.

Adal Ag Hamid: He shook his head in response to that question. No ghost he'd

ever met had smelled like that! He was near! Had to stick near the other

person who could beat people up with style, after all! Even if she used

weapons, ha!

abenedictionhymn: "It appears the door is opened," she pointed, and paused

at the area where there was once a wall.

SwordOfAtrophy: "No.. but I can think of a few things that are just as

dangerous that do." He tended to stay pretty close to Vi as a rule, not much

caring what anyone thought or assumed by that. "Beginning the list.. Zom.."

"No, no list."

Mighty Gar thog: ~He stopped at the orc bodies, and searched them for

anything interesting~

Tesarik Five: He rode nice and easy on his elf friends shoulder. Though when

the smell of rotting flesh hit his nose his nose scrunched up and he shook

his head. "Ewwww. I don't like that stinky smell!" He huffed before covering

his face with his

Tesarik One: There was nothing of interest on the orc bodies, any weapons

weren't even usable.

Adal Ag Hamid: Well, they wouldn't find anybody that needed rescuing by

hanging around outside, now would they? So he headed towards the door to have

a peek in since it was open.

Tesarik Five: hands to try and keep that smell out the best that he could.

Adal Ag Hamid: Was Wesh a mile and a half back???

Mighty Gar thog: ~He was fast, so would catch up~

Tesarik One: Apparently so. So, all of you have the map I sent via email.

There are two maps, we are using the first one right now with the five round

rooms. So please make it clear what room you are attempting to go into when

you post.

Tesarik One: Use the level and alphabet so on level 1 room A would be 1A.

SwordOfAtrophy: (assumed it's dark in there?)

Adal Ag Hamid: Well it seemd 1A was where the door was, so into 1A it was!

Assuming nothing leapt out at him.

RageofNocturne: :: He walked with the group and looked around then at the

doors and tilted his head then shook his head and snorted at the smell of

rotten flesh-- Ahh....that smell...i fear the worst befell the other

adventurers. --he said and look

Tesarik One: 1A has enough light coming in through the door to see in low

light. It is the entrance hall to the keep, and decorated with the remains of

once-fine tapestries. At the other end of the room is a set of double iron

doors, which are

RageofNocturne: around then went over to room 1D and reached for the handle

to open it-D-

Tesarik One: part-way open. It is dark beyond those doors into 1B.

Tales0fBeauty: She would follow adal into the room 1

Tesarik One: Ok folks please look at the map. You are in A. The only way you

can go is into B.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Now, now, no jumping to conclusions.. all the dead tend to

smell the same when they're rotting away." Sword was drawn, and the crimson

claws lit it up to provide light.

Tesarik One: Everyone except Wesh make a Spot in 1A.

Adal Ag Hamid: Well apart from some ruined tapestries, there didn't seem to

be much in here. Maybe!

OnlineHost: Adal Ag Hamid rolled 1 20-sided die: 16

Adal Ag Hamid: (21)

OnlineHost: SwordOfAtrophy rolled 1 20-sided die: 8

abenedictionhymn: +3 = 19

Tales0fBeauty: A and she would see that the room beyond it was dark and she

would cast on her melee hardened bow (spell Brilliant Raidiance imbues weapon

with light/brillance damage)

OnlineHost: Tesarik Five rolled 1 20-sided die: 10

Tesarik One: 15+ notice the outline of a hatch in the ceiling. There is no

way to open it from this area though.

OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty rolled 1 20-sided die: 9

Tesarik Five: (23)

Tales0fBeauty: (+5 alert=14)

Tesarik One: Ok so some of you have moved through the doors into 1B. That is

a short hallway, there are openings at either end to the left (C) and right

(D) and a narrow door on the opposite side of the hall. That door is open and

leads to a

Tesarik One: stairwell.

Adal Ag Hamid: Good thing he was always looking up, he spotted it! He tilted

his head a little. Perhaps it could serve as a good way to escape if need be.

He glanced to the others and blinked, then moved over to Raelgil and tapped

her on the

Tesarik One: So beyond A you will need some way to see - darkvision, torch,

light, etc.

Adal Ag Hamid: shoulder, since she was leading. Once he had her attention,

he held up seven fingers, then pointed to the others and held up six.

RageofNocturne: :: He looked to the hatch and blinked as he looked the

outline over then blinked-- Its a tower so obviously it comes from the room

above...--he said then went into 1B and well his dark vision came in handy as

he looked around and th

abenedictionhymn: She pulled out her moonglobe flashlight and tapped Ellis

on the shoulder, "Can you see, or do you want to use my light?"

RageofNocturne: en went for room 1D-D-

Adal Ag Hamid: He had his own moonglobe flashlight as well, which he stuck

onto the strap of his backpack and turned on to give him some light.

Tesarik Five: Well Warren couldn't see nothing now, but at least he didn't

have to worry about that, as he could just ride on his friends shoulder the

whole time!

Tesarik One: 1D - Old Storeroom

Mighty Gar thog: ~Wesh finally caught up, after checking out the dead orcs.

Never know when something might be hidden on a body, so he took the rear spot

of the group~

Tesarik One: There are barrels and crates strewn about. Whatever was in them

has long ago rotted away. There is the scurrying of rats when John enters the

area.

Tesarik One: 1C - Weapon Room

Tesarik One: There are racks on the walls that may have once held weapons.

There is unrecognizable trash on the floor. There is a door in the left wall

that leads outside.

SwordOfAtrophy: He had a sword that was on fire. "This should be good enough

darlin, but thanks." "I'll alert him if your boytoy is going to get himself

hurt cutie." "You will not and you know it."

RageofNocturne: :: Seems like an old storage room here... Nothing

else....wait i think theres a door. --he said and went over using his

darkvision still and grabbed the handle and tried to open it into room 1F-D-

abenedictionhymn: She nodded, and snickered hearing the sword. "Annoying

twit," she said sorta affectionately and then began to explore the area with

the others.

Adal Ag Hamid: Well..he'd tried to indicate to her that they'd lost someone,

but then he'd shown back up, apparently. He eyed Wesh warily, then gestured

something to Raelgil to indicate that she ought to keep the group together a

bit better, being

Tesarik One: It's another old storeroom, yet again you hear rats and just

see old crates and barrels.

SwordOfAtrophy: He'd follow John, since the man was rushing ahead to

explore, he may end up needing backup.

Adal Ag Hamid: the leader! Gesturing ideas was more difficult than signing,

but perhaps easier to understand.

Tales0fBeauty: She would be with the other using her brilliance/light embued

melee harded bow weapon to see her way through things "I think it would be

wise if we expolered together after all death was the first thing we smelled

upon entering the

abenedictionhymn: She was trying to keep up with Raelgil but as yet she

wasn't really offering much in the way of direction, and everyone was doing

their own thing as they always did. She shrugged and moved into 1C, to check

the door into 1E.

Mighty Gar thog: ~He was at the back of the group, simply looking around,

trying to figure out where the wind blew from, since the bodies should be in

that direction~

RageofNocturne: :: Nothing in there either. --he said and shook his head--

Just rats and more rats. --he said and then went back for room 1B-- Nothing

but storerooms there. --he said and pointed behind himself-D-

Tesarik One: The wind had blown from the direction of the tower keep, so yes

the bodies were probably in the tower!

Adal Ag Hamid: Well it seemed 1e was the room that hadn't been peeked at

yet, so he'd move to that door along with Viola.

Tales0fBeauty: place...." she would have made her way 1E where adal and

viola were.

Tesarik One: 1E - There is a table and a few old chairs in the middle of the

room, and unrecognizable trash on the floor. All in all, the first floor of

this keep was probably the one most people at the very least explored so

there was nothing

Tesarik One: but trash and rats.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Doesn't smell like death over there either, so I think we

can rule out them being over there." He'd check the door in 1B that lead to

the stairs, but wait for everyone before heading up.

Tesarik One: There is a spiral staircase that leads up and down through that

narrow door out of 1B.

Adal Ag Hamid: Trash and rats! Well then...seemed it was too the stairs,

though he'd wait to see if everyone gathered up, at least, before heading up

them.

Mighty Gar thog: Well, shall we go to the tower, to find the bosdies?

Tales0fBeauty: "Ok this is how we need to do things on the next level we all

need to decide as a group which direction to go and move as a unit unless you

all want to suffer the same fate as the ones who died here. I think this is

fairly empty we

Tesarik One: That door was opened a bit that Ellis checked.

Adal Ag Hamid: Wait, there was an up and a down?

Tesarik One: Wesh, you are all in the tower already.

Tales0fBeauty: should move on to the next level." (D)

Tesarik One: Yes, up and down.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Sure, Rael. So, up or down?"

Tesarik One: Wesh, check your map. You are in level 1 on the map.

Adal Ag Hamid: He held up a finger for a moment to Rael, then sat down and

closed his eyes, concentrating a moment. Or meditating, rather.

Adal Ag Hamid: Skill: Augury!

Mighty Gar thog: I'd say, the scent rises, so we should go down.

Tales0fBeauty: "We should take a vote who wants to go up and who wants to go

down, all in favor of going up say aye" (D)

SwordOfAtrophy: "Wind doesn't care what level a smell is, it just carries

it."

Tales0fBeauty: She looked to adal and noded "We will wait and see what he

finds out first."

Adal Ag Hamid: Sometimes the gods were maddeningly unhelpful. Blessed Ruth

could be too vague for her own good sometime! He opened his eyes and stood

up, then shrugged.

SwordOfAtrophy: "We know there's a few levels above us, but chances are

there's only one below. Eliminate the bottom first?"

Adal Ag Hamid: Though after a moment of thought, he decided to speak again.

"Well...now that I re-interpret what I saw, up will lead us to the missing

people."

Mighty Gar thog: ~He nodded, then looked at the way down~ I think down is

best.

Tales0fBeauty: She noded seeing adal shrug and looked to the others

"everyone in agreement we go down then?" (D)

Tesarik One: So Raelgil, as leader, you choose.

Tesarik Five: He leaned over a little, he didn't mind going up or down, in

truth, but he was there. "What if it's a upside down tower?" Just because he

was silly like that, and would probably build a tower that way for the

laughs.

Mighty Gar thog: Oh. ~he mumbled., seems he was totally off this day!~

Tesarik One: Up leads to missing people, down to....who knows.

Adal Ag Hamid: "Though both paths lead to something. Up will take us to the

missing people for sure, however." Nod.

SwordOfAtrophy: "The adventurers take priority, I think?"

Adal Ag Hamid: He nodded. That was how he felt, anyway.

abenedictionhymn: "I agree, let's find the adventurers first and then we can

handle anything else that needs handled. But, Raelgil is the leader so

whichever way she says, we'll go. Which way, Raelgil?"

Tales0fBeauty: "yes i agree, we should go up, and seek the missing

adventurers first and if we are able we can explore down later." (D)

RageofNocturne: :: He shrugged and waited for their leader to decide which

way they went then when she did he nodded-- Up it is then it seems.-D-

Adal Ag Hamid: Well that settled it! Up the stairs it was, to have a moment

of zoning out. (brb)

Tesarik One: So up! As you begin to move up the winding staircase.... you

notice burn marks on the wall about five or six steps up.... then

Mighty Gar thog: Could be they got trapped up there by whats below...

Tesarik One: you see the feet of what appears to be a dead body just above

that.

Tesarik One: In the faint light from the arrow slit on the outer wall, as

well as any light sources you all bring with you (or darkvision) you find the

dead body of a dwarf face down on the stairs about halfway between the first

and second

Mighty Gar thog: These adventurers were either greedy or stupid. To continue

after treasure, when losing one after another.

Tesarik One: level. The dwarf has been burned beyond any recognition, and

there are scorch marks on the wall above where he lies. The dwarf's clothing,

leather armor and equipment are burned so badly they are useless.

Tesarik Five: "Aww. The stubby hairy fellow...Poor guy." He tilted his head

a little and gave the dwarf a slightly longer look before he darted out one

of the arrow slits, flying away far and high enough to get some fresh air! Oh

that smell was

Tesarik One: I'll allow either a Spot or an Insight. State which you are

rolling, if you wish to roll it.

abenedictionhymn: (insight)

Tesarik Five: bad! His poor little nose just couldn't take it any longer.

After getting a few good huffs and puffs of fresh air he would dart right

back through the arrow slits he came from to rejoin the group. "It's to

smelly in here."

OnlineHost: abenedictionhymn rolled 1 20-sided die: 10

Tales0fBeauty: She would not be abel to see anything else and she would

close her eyes and said a prayer for the dead dwarf and waited on the others.

(D)

RageofNocturne: :: He crouched down at the body and tilted his head seeing a

glint then a little dusting he lifted the head of a dwarven axe. It was in

good shape but would need to be repaired-- Sorry....but this wont be of any

use to you anymore.

Tesarik One: Info sent via IM if you got any.

Adal Ag Hamid: Poor dwarf. He knelt down near its corpse and offered up a

prayer of his own, probably why he didn't notice anything else.

RageofNocturne: --he said and pat the body then put the axe head in his

bag-D-

abenedictionhymn: She stood off to the side, staring at the dwarf's body,

then to the walls, and then back to the dwarf. She glanced to Ellis and

leaned over to speak low to him, "I think something came up from behind and

the poor dwarf took the brunt since he was bringing up the rear...what do you

think?"

SwordOfAtrophy: "Definitely hit from behind and they fled up. He didn't seem

to stand a chance."

abenedictionhymn: "I don't think it's stupid to run for your lives when

something is coming up behind you in a small staircase. What could they do,

squeeze through the arrow slits?" She shook her head, and moved on up onto

the second floor, quite wary now.

Tales0fBeauty: "onward! we better watch our backs too!" she would say and

stepped carefully over the dwarf and continued to head up the stairs to the

second floor. (D)

Tesarik One: So up into 2B, another short hallway with doors at either end,

and a door across into D.

Tesarik Five: "Behind?" Blink blink. Then flying toward the rear of the

group he placed his hands on his hips and he puffed out his chest, eyes

narrowed while he stood in mid air as proud, strong, and intimidating as he

could look. "Nothings

Tesarik Five: going to burn our booties!" Nope! Not when he was on watch!

SwordOfAtrophy: Onward and upward. "You know, if I didn't know Warren, I

might have laughed at that. Now I just feel sorry for anyone trying to sneak

up on us."

Mighty Gar thog: Could not have been a large creature, it would not fit

inside.

Tesarik One: C, D, E. None of the doors are locked, but the doors are all

closed. It's pretty obvious the group went running up higher and did not go

into this floor.

Tesarik Five: Well Warren wasn't going to try flying backwards, while it

wasn't hard to do, it never seemed a good idea indoors. So instead he found

his perch on the shoulder of the person who was currently at the back of the

group, but he kept

RageofNocturne: :: He nodded and followed Raelgil up to the second floor and

looked around through the darkness and at the door to 2E and looked to

Raelgil-- I say we check the side rooms before the room ahead. --he said and

stepped over to 2E and

RageofNocturne: would open it slowly-D-

Tesarik Five: his attention totaly set behind the group, and made sure

nothing could sneak up on them, as best he could at least. And anytime

someone would get behind him, well he just shoulder hopped right to theirs.

Tesarik One: 2E - This room has a table and two chairs, and an old brick

oven against the outer wall between the arrow slits. There are also wall

racks which might have held weapons at one time.

Adal Ag Hamid: He looked to the doors, seeing them all closed and reasoned

as well that the adventurers didn't go this way. Well...he was going to keep

heading up, since there could be someone still alive and in need of help! But

it seemed someone

Tales0fBeauty: She would give the wolf a nod "agreed we should check the

side rooms first" (D)

Adal Ag Hamid: wanted to check this one out. He'd just wait by the stairs,

glancing up them

Adal Ag Hamid: .

Tesarik One: 2C - This room was once a barracks, to judge from the row of

bunks on the back wall. There are also wall racks that might have once held

weapons. Anyone who enters 1C roll a Search.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Just remember.." He pointed across to the door to 2D.

"There's a hatch in the middle of the floor there, since by my guess that's

above where we came in." He himself would wait near the stairs, to watch

their hindsides.

abenedictionhymn: So check the siderooms she said, so she went over to 2C

and opened the door quickly, using her foot to push it all the way. She

peered in, then stepped in and began to move around looking under the beds,

and anywhere else. Even in the old brick oven.

Mighty Gar thog: (22)

Tales0fBeauty: She would follow viola and looked in room 2C to see what she

could see inside. (D)

OnlineHost: Tales0fBeauty rolled 1 20-sided die: 5

RageofNocturne: :: He stepped into room E having a look around before he

returned to room B and then went to room 2C and looked around-D-

Tales0fBeauty: (5 the dice gods hate me)

OnlineHost: RageofNocturne rolled 1 20-sided die: 19

abenedictionhymn: Viola, you find a scroll case hidden in the brick oven.

It's blackened on the outside, but apparently made of some metal that would

not melt. It's very old.

RageofNocturne: +5 +3= 27)

Tesarik One: Wesh, you find a stash of 50gp in a ratty old bag buried in the

rotted mattress.

Tesarik One: John, you find a loose brick in the wall and behind it is a

stash of 3 gemstones with runes carved into them.

SwordOfAtrophy: He'd notice Adals apprehension. "If they were fighting, we'd

hear it. Don't worry, if they're up there and alive, they aren't in danger."

abenedictionhymn: She tucked the scroll case away, it was filthy and would

need cleaned probably before she'd ever be able to get it open. She headed

back out to the hallway and wiped her hands on her coat.

RageofNocturne: :: He noticed one brick that seemed.....wrong and went over

pulling it out and blinked-- Hmm... --he then reached in to get what he had

found and then looked at the gemstones-D-

Adal Ag Hamid: He frowned at that, then looked to Ellis. "Wounded people can

die very, very slowly. I still feel that time is of the essence here."

Tesarik One: Once you all get finished, you can go into 2D - This room is

empty except for some trash in the corners, and rats. There is a hatch in the

middle of the floor. Anyone who opens it, will see down into 1A in the floor

below. It is a

Tesarik One: 'murder hole' used to protect the keep by raining arrows down,

dropping boiling oil or such.

Mighty Gar thog: Raelgil? Are we trying to be extra silent in here for a

reason?

abenedictionhymn: She peeked into room D, and when she saw it was mostly

empty she headed in and opened up the hatch, to peer down into the room. She

closed it, and rose again, then walked around the room before moving to the

stairs ready to head upwards again.

Tales0fBeauty: "Ok lets keep moving we need to find these adventurers!" she

would say and headed up the stairs to the next level. (D)

Tesarik One: Level 3

RageofNocturne: :: He looked around once more then stepped out and went to

room D to have a look around then turned and looked to the stairs and would

follow up them-D-

Tesarik Five: With the others searching rooms and such Warren stayed at the

door to the stairs, Eyes darting from down, then up, keeping an eye on things

to make sure nothing could sneak up on them. No sneaky stuff with him.

Adal Ag Hamid: Yay they were gonna head up the stiars again. He was antsy,

so he headed on up. Perhaps when they got to the right floor he'd recognize

something from his augury.

Tesarik One: The door to this level is closed. There are scorch marks along

the wall.

SwordOfAtrophy: "It followed them this far, maybe they managed to trap it

outside this door."

Tesarik One: Room 3B is what the door opens into. This is a large chamber

with two doors along the right wall, two on the left, and one at the other

end.

Adal Ag Hamid: Did the scorch marks keep going up or were they just around

this door?

OnlineHost: Aislan Liam has left the room.

Mighty Gar thog: Which means whatever it was will likely come up behind us,

soon.

Tesarik One: Going up.

Adal Ag Hamid: Well then this was another floor he didn't have much interest

in exploring. He'd take a couple steps up to indicate that, then wait.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Keep going then is my estimation, we can search later."

Tesarik One: C, E, F, G are all old bedrooms. The furniture is deteriorated

and covered in mildew. In Room 3E, there are two skeletons of children in a

corner, huddled together, their skeletal arms wrapped around each other.

Tesarik One: 3D is simply a latrine with a toilet that opens to the outside

against the wall in a corner.

Tesarik One: Moving up yes?

Tales0fBeauty: "I think we should keep going up"

Adal Ag Hamid: Up he went!

Tesarik One: Ok so disregard what I said about that floor!

SwordOfAtrophy: But.. but the feels in 3E ; ;

Tesarik One: So up to Level 4... the door to this level is closed, and on

the landing is the corpse of an elf. The elf appears to be recently

dismembered and partially eaten.

Tesarik One: The elf's bow is broken, but there is a longsword and three

arrows intact easily visible by the poor elf's rotten, eaten body.

SwordOfAtrophy: "So not only does it incinerate things, it eats them too..."

"Dragon..."

Tales0fBeauty: She would see the corpse of the elf and rumaged through her

mind the discription of the adventureres they were looking for "i think this

is the elf we are searching for, we are down to 3 adventurers to find now."

(D)

Adal Ag Hamid: He frowned upon finding the elf's corpse and crouched down to

offer up a prayer for the poor thing as well. How did the sword think a

dragon would fit in here to be eating? He looked to Raelgil to see if she

thought they should head

Tesarik Five: Ewwwwwwwwwwww! Elf weren't for eating! He tilted his head some

and saw the arrows. He almost wanted to get them, but then there was dead elf

attached to them, so nope! He'd leave them alone. "Dragons are to big."

Adal Ag Hamid: up the rest of the way and just work their way down, or stay

here.

RageofNocturne: :: He looked over the elf's body then looked to the weapons

and well he went and picked up the arrows and looked them over then looked at

the sword-- Anyone require a new sword? It wont be serving him very much

anymore...--he said a

RageofNocturne: nd picked it up-D-

abenedictionhymn: "I think they are all dead.... it's been a week. They

would have escaped wouldn't they?" She frowned and stepped over the elf's

body, and noticed it looked like it had been eaten. She shivered a bit.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Dragons don't come out of eggs as big as castles, jeez.."

abenedictionhymn: She snickered, "True, they are small when they are born. A

juvenile dragon could certainly fit up these stairs."

abenedictionhymn: She shook her head, she didn't need the sword or the

arrows.

Adal Ag Hamid: "If the entire group was killed by a juvenile dragon, why

were they adventurers in the first place?"

SwordOfAtrophy: "Adal? Does this look familiar or do we keep going?"

Tales0fBeauty: She said a quick prayer for the elf and continued on up

"Onward we must press on and see if anyone survived." she would continue to

go up. (D)

Adal Ag Hamid: "None of it really looks familiar, it's just a feeling I get.

I think upwards is where we need to go, though." Nod, and then up.

SwordOfAtrophy: "Someone clearly misunderestimates a fire breathing lizard

thats eight feet long and can snap all your bones in a bite."

Adal Ag Hamid: Mostly because he'd fought a giant undead dragon and didn't

die.

Tesarik One: Ok! Level 5 - This is the top of the spiral staircase. The door

is open.

Tesarik Five: "Just poke them in the face with sharp things!" Warrens way to

deal with all things.

Adal Ag Hamid: Well then it was through the door for him! Looking around

briefly to see what there was to see.

RageofNocturne: :: He shrugged then slid the sword into his belt and put the

arrows in his bag with the axe head and his gems and well would follow

them-D-

Tesarik One: 5B This is a small chamber that has doors out of it to the left

and right. on the far wall is a ladder leading to a roof hatch, which is

closed. The door on the right is open, but as soon as the first person steps

into 5B two ghouls

Mighty Gar thog: Might be a chimera type creature. Many things breath fire,

don't recall which ones do.

Tesarik One: appear from the door to the right (5C).

Tesarik One: Fresh meat! Both ghouls moved forward towards the group, and

since Adal was right there, Ghoul 1 attacked him with it's horrible claws.

Adal Ag Hamid: Ghouls! He froze when they appeared and eyed them, then one

came at him! (Rain of Flowers - counter)

Tesarik One: Go for it.

Adal Ag Hamid: He leaned out of the way of one set of claws, then caught the

second wrist and sent a couple quick kicks to the ghoul's midsection to send

it backwards.

wasn't left holding a ghoul arm. He settled into his fighting stance and eyed

the second ghoul.

to take a nice bite out of whatever flesh wasn't covered in armor.

stumble and begin to tumble down the staircase until it finally stops about

level 2, still.

Tesarik One: end combat

SwordOfAtrophy: And another notch for the faeries belt there.

RageofNocturne: :: He watched the others attack since he was still in the

stairwell then watched the body go rolling down-- So, thats what was eating

the body...but what was using fire on these guys...-D-

Mighty Gar thog: Th0se two were easy to kill. ~said rather loudly~

Tesarik Five: (14+12+6 amulet+13 Dex+2 Colossus Hunter+5Bracers+3 from

Silent Tracker.)

Tesarik One: So Level 5 - once the ghouls are disposed of you all notice the

partially burned corpse of a human fighter laying against the closed door 5D.

His bastard sword is beside him.

Mighty Gar thog: Guy in front? Why not knock on the door? if survivors are

hiding in their., knocking shows civility.

Tesarik One: The open door that the ghouls came out of is 5C - it seems to

have once held an artist's studio; there are ruined canvasses and rotten

books scattered througought. In the middle of this room is another human

fighter corpse, badly

Mighty Gar thog: ~He would pick up the sword~ Anyone need this blade?

SwordOfAtrophy: "Well, that leaves us with one then.. but if anyone could

survive alone for a week, I'd imagine it to be the mage."

Tesarik One: disfigured by wounds, and by the ghouls which have been

feasting on it. In 5E there are dozens of barrels and a stone cistern that

collected and stored rainwater. There is a skeleton in the middle of the room

probably one of the

Tales0fBeauty: She would notice the dead human fighter and sighed softly as

she walked over and said a short silent prayer "Another dead adventerur, that

only leaves 2 left if they are alive at all."

Tesarik One: victims of the killing spree 437 years ago.

Tesarik Five: "Or maybe the mage is the one that burned them all."

RageofNocturne: :: He stepped into the rooms and looked around slowly with

the others -D-

Tesarik One: Ok IM's were sent for insight.

SwordOfAtrophy: Indoctrination is a hell of a drug.

Tesarik One: So Room 5D is closed, and will not open with ease. You will

have to force the door open.

SwordOfAtrophy: He stepped over to the door to 5D, and knocked on it. "Hey,

we're a group from the heart, let us know if you're alive in there..."

abenedictionhymn: She stepped into the room and looked around, then at the

painting on the wall with the children. She moved about, looking to see if

anything of interest was in the room besides the other human fighter's body

and then moved to the closed door to lean an ear against it to listen.

Adal Ag Hamid: He stood up then and moved over to the door that Ellis was

knocking on, having a listen. If nothing else he might be alright at knocking

the door open if they needed.

Tesarik One: There was no sound from within.

Tesarik Five: Warren got an idea, and with a look around he flew out of the

tower, again using the arrow slits as his escape, before he flew around to

see if he could go into the other room that was blocked. In he went, and

looking around to see

Tales0fBeauty: She would look to the door that the others were looking at

"anyone good with alockpick? if not i can try and break the door down." (D)

Tesarik Five: what he could find. (Spot if needed)

Tesarik Five: (Or search.)

I don't think."

Tesarik Five: (15 for spot...)

SwordOfAtrophy: "I'd imagine it's barricaded."

Tesarik One: Don't need to roll search to see the corpse of a lovely woman

in the midst of the floor, her robes saturated with blood. She has pushed a

dresser in front of the door to barricade it. On the floor next to her

outstretched hand is a

Tesarik One: crude drawingmade by her bloody finger when she was alive, a

large circle containing an eye, and a mouth, with six lines radiating from

it.

Tesarik One: There is a blood soaked spellbook near her as well as a

spellcomponent pouch.

Tesarik One: The door is not locked, for those still in Room 5C. It's

barricaded. You'll need to use STR to open it.

Tesarik One: Were you all wondering what had been chasing them up the

stairs??? Of course you have. You will now find out.

RageofNocturne: :: He drew his sword then looked to the door-- Lets just

bust through it if there is no answer --he said and charged the door with his

acidwashed adamantine/celestial mitrhil sword and tried to get through it-D-

Mighty Gar thog: Beholder

Adal Ag Hamid: Well barricaded he wouldn't be as much help with, he'd mostly

be good at breaking the lock. If he could punch all the way through a door

and a dresser, he'd be hoing on higher level quests!

Mighty Gar thog: (lol opps)

Tesarik Five: Awww. That poor pretty lady. Looking at the drawing she made

he gave a small giggle, even with the death he found her bloody picture oddly

cute and funny. Never the less he touched her spellbook and pouch, just

because he could,

Mighty Gar thog: If she died recently, Raelgil can resurrect her, no?

Adal Ag Hamid: Well at any rate. Seemed it wouldn't matter much longer! They

had someone scouting out the window, so he'd do another headcount to make

sure nobody else had wandered off.

Tesarik One: a creature flew up the stairs behind you all. Around two and a

half foot in diameter, this spherical creature has a central eye while

eyestalks circled it. There were six, but apparently one has been lopped off.

The eyestalks

Mighty Gar thog: (oops that was to be ooc)

Tesarik One: swivel this way and that. It was wounded, but still very

dangerous. Those in the room (minus Warren) all need to roll a Willpower

DC20.

Adal Ag Hamid: He did not recall one of their party members being a big ol

eye with a bunch of other eyes coming off it. He gave Raelgil a sharp nudge

in the side with his elbow.

Tesarik Five: shrank them down to a managable size for himself, then tucked

them away before he flew back to the others through the arrow slits again.

"She made a funny drawing of a one eye'd......." And then there it was.
